Chapter Thirty-Eight: Haicheng

It seems that a special force is protecting the mysterious city on the sea, and as the ships get closer and closer to the city, the strange transparent insects become less and less.

"Why didn't these bugs climb up from the oars?" Dai Qing wondered.

Ye Mu shook his head and said, "I don't know, I can't figure out what kind of habits these weird insects are, they are still amphibious." ”

"The sea just now was densely packed with that kind of transparent insects." Liu Wen looked at the pitch-black insect corpses on the sea behind her, and got goosebumps all over her body.

"It's almost there." Qin Aowu excitedly reminded everyone.

As far as the eye can see, the overall outline of the city presents a huge and boundless oval, the bottom is nearly three meters above sea level, and the foundation is made of milky white stones.

"Wait, this city doesn't feel right." Ye Mu's brows furrowed slightly, he looked at the sea city not far away, and always felt that there was something strange.

The golden ball of light flashed in Ye Mu's hand, and he looked at the city in the sea seriously.

Looking along the border of this huge city, above the sea in the distance, an extremely strange reef suddenly appeared.

The reason why it is strange is that the reef is so big that most of the reef sinks to the bottom of the sea, and only two rock corners are exposed, but just these two rock horns that are above the water can be compared to two small mountains.

And its shape is also extremely strange and symmetrical, like a twin peaks, both in height and shape, it is exactly the same.

"This city is built on a monster..."Ye Mu swallowed his saliva and put forward his own conjecture.

"What!" Everyone had a frightened look on their faces.

Dai Qing followed Ye Mu's gaze, then looked at it carefully, and said, "This shape... Oval, a bit like a large turtle. ”

Ye Mu nodded and said approvingly: "It should be a turtle that is so big that it is exaggerated." ”

The entire body of the giant tortoise was hidden underwater, and from a distance, the city seemed to appear on the surface of the water out of thin air, but now that they looked closer, everyone realized that it was unusual.

Qin Aowu guessed with some doubts: "Xuanwu? ”

Ye Mu shook his head and explained: "It's not Xuanwu, Xuanwu is a turtle and snake, and Xuanwu is a divine beast, and Baxia is the son of a dragon, and it is a different species."

Qin Aowu was once again impressed by Ye Mu's erudition: "How do you know? ”

Ye Mu pursed his lips and explained: "There was a time on the Internet, wasn't the trainee who played basketball popular?" And then there's a browser game... It's based on the theme of the Book of Mountains and Seas.,And then this page game rubs the popularity of that trainee.,What giant Kun is recommended every day.,What a mythical beast.,I'm bored and click in to play.。 ”

The dragon gave birth to nine sons, each with his own good.

Baxia is ranked sixth, also called Gan. Life is good to bear, and the strength is endless. Legend has it that in ancient times, Baxia often carried three mountains and five mountains, making waves in the rivers, lakes and seas. Later, Dayu subdued it when he controlled the water, and it obeyed Dayu's command, pushed the mountain and dug ditches, dredged all over the river, and made a contribution to water control. The flood was subdued, and Dayu was worried that the Baxia would scatter wild everywhere, so he moved the extra-large stone tablet that stood up to the sky, and engraved the deeds of the Baxia to control the water, and called the Baxia to carry it, and the heavy stone tablet pressed it so that it could not walk casually.

Liu Wen asked with some concern, "Are you still going up?"

Ye Mu said without hesitation, "Go, why don't you go, for such a big monster, we are just ants... Oh no, we're just dust on the ground, will you have nothing to do with a speck of dust? ”

Dai Qing asked suspiciously, "Why are there strange beasts in the Classic of Mountains and Seas in this place?"

Ye Mu was also confused, he shook his head helplessly and said, "I don't know, this ghost place feels like anything strange can come out." ”

It took a great deal of effort for the people to land on the turtle's back, and there was a clearing about three meters wide on the periphery of the city wall, and there was nothing but some stagnant water and moist aquatic plants.

The ground around the perimeter of the city wall is paved with incomparably solid milky white masonry, each of which is more than two meters long and one meter wide, and the joints between the bricks and stones are extremely tight, which shows the skill of the craftsmen who paved these tiles in those days.

The city wall is very peculiar, from the bottom to the top, the bottom end is about two meters and the ground is made of milky white masonry, and then look up is a transparent glass magic crystal wall, the outer wall is ten meters high, it is almost impossible to climb up.

Qin Aowu looked at the towering city wall in front of him, and the corners of his mouth twitched imperceptibly: "I can't go up." ”

Ye Mu squatted down and touched the ground with his hand: "You have to go in quickly, you see that the stones outside the city wall and the stones on the city wall in this place have obvious signs of corrosion, and there is still a lot of undried water on the ground, the city wall is indeed very dry, I guess it is possible that this city will sink into the sea during the day." ”

Liu Wen glanced at the sky and frowned slightly: "Then we have to hurry." ”

The luck of the people was not bad, the city gate was not far from where they were, and the city gate was wide open, and there was not even a single person to guard it.

"This can't be an empty city, right?" Dai Qing cautiously looked into the city, and there was a dead silence.

"Let's go in and have a look." Ye Mu took Ye Hua and slowly walked towards the city.

Liu Wen and Qin Aowu glanced at each other and followed behind the two one after another.

When everyone stepped into the city, the scene in front of them was once again beyond everyone's expectations.

The sky is clear, people come and go, the traffic is busy, and the cries of selling one after another are continuous.

No one noticed that four outsiders had walked in through the gates.

It's a lively city, but the only feeling that this city brings to Ye Mu is weird.

It's incredibly weird.

Looking inside from the outside of the city, it was clearly a silent and uninhabited dead city, but when you walked in, you saw a scene full of people.

It's like a hot summer day one second, and a cold winter wax moon the next second, the huge contrast makes people feel creepy.

Looking back, Ye Mu was surprised to find that the city gate behind him was quietly closed.

With such a huge steel gate, how can it be said that it will be closed without giving out the slightest breath?

And at the gate of the city, which was unguarded before, there were rows of well-trained ancient soldiers standing at this time.

The four of them looked at each other, completely confused.

Ye Mu led the three of them towards the crowd, the people here were all speaking a language they had never heard before, and strangely enough, everyone could still understand what they were saying as they had been last time.

All the people here were dressed in ancient robes and linen clothes, and the Ye Mu people were as alien as if they were aliens, and the passers-by seemed to avoid them, consciously or unconsciously.

Ye Mu walked to an aunt who was squatting on the ground to buy vegetables suspiciously, and asked politely, "Auntie, what kind of city is this?"

The aunt glanced at Ye Mu with some vigilance, and said, "Young man, are you from outside?" We're here in the city of Haiku. ”

"Oh yes, Auntie, we just came from out of town and want to find a place to rest, please ask where we can live." Dai Qing put her little head up and asked sweetly.

A delicate and cute little girl like Dai Qing is the easiest to please the elderly.

Sure enough, the aunt saw that it was a young and beautiful little girl who was asking, and the vigilance on her face was swept away, and she was replaced with a smiling expression: "Go straight from this street to the end, turn right and there is an inn, you foreigners, you don't have Caibei here, I guess they won't let you live." ”

"Ah, it's over, it's over, I'm going to sleep on the street again." Dai Qing's delicate smiling face wrinkled into Sichuan characters.

The aunt thought for a while and said: "But you can go to the Ci Tang built by the Great Hou Bojian to rest for two days, that is a special place to receive you foreigners, according to the rules, you can stay for free for two days when you first come, and you have to collect the colorful shellfish on the third day." ”

Ye Mu listened carefully, and when he saw that the aunt had finished speaking, he asked again: "Auntie, I still want to ask, can't we go out of the city now?"

The eldest aunt sneered, as if amused by Ye Mu's words, she jokingly said to Ye Mu: "Now the whole city is at the bottom of the deep sea, and out of the city gate is the sea, aren't you afraid of drowning?" And the gate of Haidry City is controlled by the city lord, even if you want to drown, no one will open the door for you and let you out."

Now at the bottom of the sea? Ye Mu was stunned for a moment, looked up at the sun above his head, and his pupils contracted suddenly.

Round! I didn't even notice that the sun above my head was the same as the one on Earth, it was round!
