Part.12

Second, nine a.m.

Boom! Boom! Boom! (knocks on the door)

"Shenghai, Shenghai! We're leaving! ”

"Yawn--hawn, hawn......"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

"Shenghai, yes, are you still sleeping? Come out to sea with me! ”

"Jace? Ahh Give me ten minutes, and that's what gets me up. ”

……

The air turned a little colder, and a layer of dark clouds like gray smoke drifted in the air. Before the two of them walked out of the coconut grove, they heard the surging sound of wind and waves on the beach.

Henir. Fu Jace took the fishing gear and threw it all on his fishing boat. He then paddled his oars and slowly sailed towards the all-too-familiar sea, but now the sea suddenly became foggy.

"Let's chirp, chirp ......" Xie Shenghai listened to the sound of the oars rowing across the sea, while nibbling on a steamed white flour steamed bun, with a kettle tied around his neck.

"Are you still faint, Shenghai?"

"If it wasn't for the late packing up last night, I would have slept a long time ago." Xie Shenghai opened his worried eyes and hurriedly swallowed the steamed buns.

"Well, I woke up at almost twelve o'clock in the evening, and I saw that the lights were still on in your yard." Jace smacked his lips and paddled aimlessly.

"Anyway," Xie Shenghai unscrewed the lid and raised his head to take a sip of water before continuing: "Don't delay our fishing, Fu Jace." ”

"Ah, ah, indeed."

In fact, every time he goes to sea, he always needs a deputy to cast the nets for him or help collect them at the end. He has cooperated with Lao Liu twice (although Lao Liu has been missing for many days), but the one who has cooperated the most is Xie Shenghai.

A thin layer of mist rose from the sea, and visibility was blurry, but the reefs in the nearby waters could be faintly discerned, and they could not escape the eyes of Jace.

Xie Shenghai sat facing him, he looked at his surroundings, and suddenly began to recall what happened yesterday, causing his heart to be unable to calm down for a long time.

"I listen, Lao Chen also disappeared last night." Fu Jace looked at him alone in a daze, and suddenly reminded him in a deep voice.

"Who? Lao Chen is also missing, and he hasn't listened to me about this matter. Xie Shenghai turned his head to look at Fu Jiesi and listened to him carefully.

"Hey, did you see those people on the beach when we came over this morning?" Fu Jace's eyes sparkled. Said: "It's all to find Lao Chen, alas." ”

"So that's the case, why do I have so much spare there." Xie Shenghai muttered while becoming vigilant, and he glanced at the sea water: "If this is the case, then there must be something else besides them, which is really tricky." ”

"Ah, what are you?" Fu Jie Si looked at Xie Shenghai who was still idle, but now he couldn't understand what he was muttering at all.

"By the way, have you ever heard of such a thing as an unknown creature, Jace Fu?" Xie Shenghai didn't have much understanding and impression of this, so he asked him.

"Unknown creatures?" It could be seen that after hearing this question, Fu Jace's eyes and chin widened and fell off at the same time.

"Yes."

"Isn't it that all of these things have been locked down by the World Tree in the area on the other side of the Mono Plain?" Fu Jace's voice was very delicate, as if the words he had just said were unforgivable and confidential. Then, he added a rhetorical question: "Shenghai, why did you suddenly ask about this again?" Eh, do you suspect that an unknown creature did it? ”

"At the moment...... The initial suspicion stage is up. Xie Shenghai brushed his hair, and his face once smiled awkwardly.

Fu Jace was stunned, and then smiled on his face.

"Hey, what does that thing look like, you?" Xie Shenghai quickly restrained his embarrassed smile, and turned serious to ask again.

"I haven't seen it again." Fu Jace shook his head twice, then thought thoughtfully for a while, and then replied, "Maybe...... It's one thing to look different, it's another thing to look big, right? ”

"Volume?" When Xie Shenghai heard this, he smiled helplessly. As he spoke, he looked at the murky surface of the water, and gradually a clear picture of a huge monster covered in barbs standing behind the mountain came to his mind.

("Whew!") ”）

"......" Fu Jace looked at him with a serious face, quietly listening to the rustling of the surrounding seawater.

"Well, it's really a big guy, it's really ......" Xie Shenghai gave himself a retreat, and his body shivered with fear of the cold. "If the disappearance continues, then we won't be able to go fishing like this again." ”

"Yes, but we live in this area by fishing all our lives. If you can't go to sea, you can't farm the land, and it's too dangerous to be repatriated, what can you do in the future? Fu Jace thought about things in the long run, smacking his lips and frowning.

"It would be nice if the World Tree could come and take over our side of things, so that I could leave the village and go to Lotinia's side." Xie Shenghai sighed, and lay into the cabin with the back of his head in his hands, looking at the gray emptiness.

Fu Jie Si glanced at him and asked with some interest, "Sheng Hai, are you going to Lotinia?" ”

"That's right."

"Lotinia is a desert. Why, you still want to go on a trip and can't travel? ”

"How can I be so idle?" Xie Shenghai stretched out his limbs lazily and narrowed his eyes.

"Hey! Wait a minute. While chatting, Fu Jace suddenly turned his head, and he was stunned.

"What's wrong, Jace Fu?" Xie Shenghai raised his head, and his voice was loud.

"Where are we, mine?"

As soon as Fu Jace was like this, the startled Xie Shenghai couldn't help but start to get nervous. He stood up and asked quickly, "No, the ...... over there" Isn't it land? ”

"......" Fu Jace cracked his lips and looked forward in the uncertain direction of Xie Shenghai's fingers. Through a layer of mist that ran across the sea, a black shadow like a spire could be seen faintly appearing not far away.

Whose land looks like this?

"That could be a sea reef," Fu Jace looked at for a while, suspiciously, "the main island won't be in that direction." ”

"So where are we going now?" When Xie Shenghai heard this, he quickly stood up from the cabin. He turned around and looked around, except that the fog was fog, and he felt that the fog was even thicker than before.

"Oh no, I can't see where the sun is." Fu Jace put away the oars, and in a panic, he could only propose for the time being: "Otherwise, let's stop casting the net for now, and wait to see the situation." ”

"Don't panic when you encounter this situation, you'll see it all when the fog goes down, huh."

.

"Are we going to go to sea with this kind of gas?" When a few old fishermen stood on the edge of the river and chatted, Wang Qiang carried a shoulder bag and walked over with Lao Xian.

The two sides looked at each other once, and suddenly there was no one to speak.

I saw Lao Xian throw the fishing net into the cabin in front of him, and then slapped his white shirt, his dark and unruly eyes, and immediately showed an incomprehensible smile. He turned around and asked, "Why, aren't you guys going?" ”

"I've been squatting here for more than an hour, but the fog hasn't gone down yet." A man sitting on a stone not far away. His hair was very dark and long, and he looked particularly sloppy from a distance.

"The fog, the fog doesn't affect our fishing......" Lao Xian put one hand on his waist, turned his head and looked at the sea on the water line, and muttered to himself.

"Eh, did you two listen?" The bearded man with a big chin deliberately pounded Wang Qiang's shoulder from behind and asked him.

"Huh?" Wang Qiang grinned and turned to look back at him.

There was a glint in the other party's eyes, and there was a flirtatious smile on his face. There is no doubt that if he wants it, it must be Lao Chen. "Lao Chen is missing."

"Really? Another ...... missing" After Wang Qiang heard this, there was no emotional fluctuation on his face. In his eyes, how could such bland and boring news be compared to the shocking news of catching the fish king.

"What, Lao Chen is missing?" However, the old idle on the other side became excited about this topic. His eyes widened as he looked at the man he had just spoken.

"Yes, it was missing last night. There was a group of people who were looking for him just now, but now I don't know where to look for him. ”

"Eh, you guys, is he going to go to the Cadgar Self-Defense City to meet his daughter-in-law?"

When the atmosphere was in a serious state, I don't know who suddenly teased with interest, and the crowd suddenly burst into laughter.

"Eh, I think it's possible, hahahaha......"

"Mike, don't be blind! How can this kind of thing be a joke - Lao Chen went out to sea to fish last night, and when he was found on the surface this morning, only half a boat remained! ”

"Oh, is this the fish king's doing?" Wang Qiang touched his chin and gradually became interested in their topic.

"King of Fish, you have a head full of King Fish." As the bearded man continued, the beard on his chin moved. "The ships are lined up in half."

Listening to their words, Lao Xian couldn't help but think of what happened when he was on the sea last morning: the bottom of the boat suddenly suffered a violent impact, and as a result, Wang Qiang fell into the water. When he was about to go to pull Wang Qiang, he saw a huge black shadow on the water......

"Ahh Wang Qiang grinned, turned around and didn't know where to go.

.

"It's over, and all the luck in this life will be exhausted."

The fishing boat was getting closer and closer to the shore, but the two of them didn't know where they were. The beach is becoming clearer and clearer, and a thick fog fills the entire island.

The island is covered with sparse coconut palms, and the underside of the coconut trees is covered with grass. As far as I could see, a flash of emerald green flowed into my eyes, and I realized that it was a steep and treacherous hillside.

"Relax, let's take a break here now, Jace."

"I thought it was going to be foggy, but I didn't expect it to get thicker and thicker, and this weirdness is just confusing." Fu Jace complained incessantly. When he rowed the fishing boat to the point where he could no longer get close to the shore, Xie Shenghai on the side took off his shirt and jumped into the waist-deep water, throwing the anchor down by the way.

"Haha, let's go."

"The next time I encounter this kind of weirdness, I swear I will never go to sea again." Jace jumped from the boat right after him.

Thump!

The two of them swam shallowly on the surface of the water, and quickly went ashore one after the other.

"Poof!" When Xie Shenghai stood up, he touched the soaked seawater on his face with his hand, and deliberately exhaled his hair. The water rained down from his short blue hair, and it all fell onto the beach.

Fu Jiesi opened his eyes half-open, raised his head to look around, and couldn't help but shout and asked, "Shenghai, where have we been?" ”

"Probably...... An island in the South Island? Xie Shenghai frowned, turned around and looked around the surroundings, and judged a little analysis.

"If it's an island," Fu Jace said with nervousness written on his face. He smacked his lips: "Then we can only rest here for a while." ”

"It's a good idea." Xie Shenghai's soft-spoken conformity. With that, he walked up to the front of Fu Jace, and looked closer at the two peaks looming in mid-air, which were actually only about ten meters high.

Taking advantage of Xie Shenghai's back to him, Fu Jie Si glanced at his head slightly, lowered his head and spat on the beach.

“？”

What's going on?

Xie Sheng lowered his head consciously, and found that the sapphire necklace hanging around his neck flashed an abnormal light blue luster at this time. He threw his shirt on the boat, which made the situation a little embarrassing.

"Let's sit down on the rocks over there and talk for a while." Fu Jais, who was also bare-chested and had shallow abdominal muscles, stepped forward at this time and stood side by side with Xie Shenghai.

"Fu, Fu Jace, I think we'd better get out of here quickly, there's something wrong with this island......"

Xie Shenghai's words were hurried and fast, and he shook his head. So much so that when Fu Jace turned his head to him blankly, he instantly noticed the sapphire necklace he was wearing around his neck, which flashed with an abnormal light blue light at this time.

"Sheng Hai, you, what's the matter with your chain, why is it still shining?"

"It's- it might have caught a cold."

"Got a cold?" Fu Jace stretched out his finger and pointed at the sapphire, with a look of extreme surprise on his face.

"Ah, right...... That's what happened. Xie Shenghai put his hands in the air, and the whole process was hesitant, and now he didn't know which way to put his hands.

Suddenly, Fu Jace's expression gradually froze. He opened his pupils wide, his mouth widened, and when Xie Shenghai watched his expression become more and more dazed, he shouted in an alarm: "Ah-Shenghai, there is someone behind you!" ”
