Chapter 297: A Strange Sailing Ship

readx;

Xiong Junming frowned. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info This is Xianfu Lake! From where will the galleons come from. Dragged the mercenary past him and looked through the submarine's lookout glass. What caught my eye was really a sailboat!

I took a breath, I was like Conan, everywhere I went, something would happen. If anyone comments, they will probably complain about me.

He looked carefully at the sailboat in his eyes. Looking at the sails full of holes, sweat ran down my head.

"Who's going to get a sailboat to come to this lake?" The mercenary said, "I haven't seen it yet." It came out of nowhere. It is a fortune boat, with a keel and a watertight cabin, and an elevator at the tail rudder. ”

Xiong Junming took two steps back. His face turned pale, "This is not the sailing ship of our Celestial Empire. The mast of Western sailing ships is composed of 3 or 2 independent masts through the mast tower, the mast is towering, some even reach 3/4 of the length of the ship, and the later warships also have additional wing sails, and the area of the sails that can be hung will far exceed that of the Celestial Empire, so the advantage in speed is also significantly better than that of the Celestial Empire. This is a Western cargo ship. ”

"Mr. Xiong, what should you do now?" The mercenary asked. "Do you want to go up and have a look?"

"No," said Xiong Junming, "go back to shore." Ask the company what to do next. If that doesn't work, call some mediums and see what it is. ”

How could this thing be on the lake? Not yet a sailing ship of the Celestial Empire.

Xiong Junming's face turned white and red, and he shook his head from time to time. It's no less than seeing the expression of an evil ghost.

Two research submarines returned to shore. Xiong Junming looked towards the center of the lake from the shore, but saw nothing.

"Mr. Xiong, the old man Hu of the group has arrived." A mercenary walked up to him and said. Xiong Junming's body shook and jumped out of his train of thought. "Dream Palm, you can rest first, I'll go see someone."

Old man Hu. It's Qin Yi's adoptive father.

This mysterious Wang group that supervises warlocks has finally appeared a big man, he is Hu Guoxing, who was let go by Li Ruiyuan in Fengshan Town fifty years ago.

And all the warlocks' control has not left the sight of the Wang Group, and we seem to have been designed. Everyone is struggling with their role throughout the system.

Compared with Hu Guoxing's current position, my head coach is nothing.

I smiled at the corners of my mouth, maybe he'll remember me. Originally, he planned to go to him with Qin Yi, but it was terminated because of Li Ruiyuan's death.

I pretended to go back to the tent that Xiong Jun had arranged for me, and seduced my two guards while no one was looking. Since arriving at Xianfu Lake, I have not seen any tourists. It seems that the Wang Group has reached some kind of agreement with the attraction.

Now Hu Guoxing has also rushed here. He must have known that I was in the ranks. I had to hear what they had to say so I knew what they were planning.

Walking cautiously through the two tents, my ears could hear the conversation in the tents with complete clarity. Just in case. I opened the enchantment.

This is just a piece of cake under Himiko's power.

"You think it's a ghost ship?" A somewhat hoarse voice asked. The tone is very familiar to me, and I can almost be sure that it is Hu Guoxing.

"Old man, I have carefully looked at the sailboat, it is not the sailboat of our Celestial Empire. It is a Mediterranean-style European sailing ship, not to mention its usefulness can be used for navigation, but in terms of the degree of damage to the sailboat, it is already an abandoned ship, and when it comes to the shore, it is completely invisible to such a large sailing ship, isn't this a ghost ship? Xiong Junming said tremblingly.

"That's why the group wants you to come." Hu Guoxing said, "Your family has a lot of seafaring experience. I also brought you a group of experienced crew members. So that you can control everything. ”

Xiong Junming took a breath of cold air, "This ...... Isn't there someone else who has already been on this ship? ”

Hu Guoxing smiled, snorted and pulled out the tent, and walked out, "Mengyichen, long time no see, if you want to hear it, just come in and listen, you don't need to hide." In fact, I didn't intend to avoid you. ”

I sighed and got out of the back of the tent, across the two tents, looking at Hu Guoxing, who was already gray-haired, holding a compass in his hand.

"Your status is very high, are you an old man?" I sarcastically mocked him.

He smiled and shook his head, "If you had already acted according to the group's instructions, I'm afraid you would be even higher than me." ”

Have you sent me any instructions?

I followed Hu Guoxing into the tent.

"It's just that you take into account your personality, so after the group absorbed you through Zhuo Jingsheng, they didn't dare to use you. But now ......" he did not continue. spread out his hands, "Among the young people, you are the only one who can have cultivation like you." ”

"Perhaps, it would be better for you to find Zhuo Zhixue." I said coldly.

"She's dead." Hu Guoxing said to me, "The cause of death is unknown, because the person who saw her die was already mentally ill." It's not clear at all what happened. ”

It's too cheap for her. I gritted my teeth.

"You also know that if Li Ruiyuan was alive, I might still use him, but he died. So I can only use you. Originally, the group still had Qin Yi. But his whereabouts are also unknown. Hu Guoxing sighed, "He deceived me, and now he is also retribution." ”

Qin Yi didn't know what happened because of his obsession with Wang Xuewei when he was a child, which led to the death of Hu Guoxing's son Hu Sirui, and he borrowed his body to survive.

"I found a lot of information left by Zhang Yelin in Li Ruiyuan's office, and then I knew what they were doing. Originally, the Wang Group had nothing to do with this, just watching the merits of the warlocks not to make mistakes and sit and sweep the tails for the warlocks. However, under their guidance, the group has been turned into a miasma. It's time to settle the score. Hu Guoxing said.

"I'm old. I can't deal with the forces within the group anymore, and the only chance to marry the chairman of the board of directors, Mr. Wang, was also destroyed by Qin Yi, who came out, and now the people you see are the last remaining forces of mine. Do you remember the spirit stones of the warlocks, Li Ruiyuan once put four spirit stones together. A map was found. And the final destination on the map is Xianfu Lake. ”

"He did make three attempts, but the people who got the spirit stone eventually disappeared here." Hu Guoxing said, "With the spirit stone, when you go to the center of Xianfu Lake, you will see the strange Western-style sailboat. ”

Xiong Junming glanced at me a few times.

It turns out that the last spirit stone is on my body!

"Mo Qing and Wang Xicheng were the last ones he sent, and they retrieved the basalt from Ai Hongchou. But this last one, a total of 30 warlock masters, except for Mo Qing, who has gone crazy, are all missing. You are the group's last hope, and certainly mine. Hu Guoxing said to me slowly, "I can give you the greatest help, if you discover the secret of Xianfu Lake, it may be possible to save the entire Wang Group from the brink of extinction." ”

"Why save it? The Wang group is in charge of the fate of the warlocks, and I don't know how many people have died under control. I replied coldly. You restrict the freedom of the sorcerers. That's a thing the devil can do in itself! ”

"Yichen, let's see the facts clearly, if the warlocks lose their monitoring, I can guarantee that there will be huge waves on the land of the Central Plains, and I don't know how many Zhang Jiao and how many Li Ruiyuan-style characters will emerge among the warlocks. Do you want this to happen? Hu Guoxing looked at me and said, "It was my mistaken belief in Li Ruiyuan that made the Wang Group become the current situation because of his personal desires." ”

He let out a long sigh, "It's my fault, but I only have one chance to correct it." That's you, and the Vermilion Bird Spirit Stone on your body. If even you disappear, I will be a sinner through the ages. ”

I'm here to find someone, and I'm not here to help you fix your mistakes, if there are really countless Li Ruiyuan because there is no monitoring by the Wang Group, it is also fate, what role can I play by myself?

"The path of cultivation of the warlocks is wrong." Hu Guoxing frowned, "I have already written a report to the board of directors on this matter. Ask the psychic medium and other monks to help the warlocks get out of the predicament of cultivating the ghost path. But you also know how difficult it is for the current warlocks to let go of their existing cultivation, not to mention the sense of superiority that the warlocks rely on to bring to individuals. ”

Yes, killing ghosts with a Dao talisman has been detached from the real society, and it will give the demon slayer a strong inner satisfaction. In order to be able to make their status or cultivation more advanced, they may really take risks.

Although the Wang Group has done extremely hateful control, it has to be said that the Wang Group has also stopped many warlocks from dangerous behaviors.

"With Li Ruiyuan, the path of the group began to be reversed, but I have to say that because of his quick success, the warlock foundation of the Wang Group has undergone earth-shaking changes, and the overall warlock qualification has been improved......

"Do you mean eating human flesh? Turning people into beasts is really improving. I said sarcastically.

"Yichen, you also know that you opened the spiritual book, which made many ghosts come back to the world. In the dark, this is a balance, although Li Ruiyuan's approach is despicable, but it does open up a new situation for the warlocks. At least there are new routines in dealing with ghosts and spirits. ”

"You mean, I got into trouble, and Li Ruiyuan let the warlocks eat human flesh is an inevitable connection?" I sneered at the corners of my mouth.

"Essentially, it does. Everything that has a way is regarded as such. I don't want you to bear the trouble you caused, but you are always completing the bad karma created by others. If you can't get rid of it, you're in the same stream, and if you're truly liberated, you're cultivating. Hu Guoxing said, lit a cigarette, and took a puff, "There is a big problem in the capital chain of the Wang Group, and there is only one way to solve it, which is to find the disappeared ancient Dian Kingdom." ”

"You make it clear, what is the relationship between the Ancient Dian Kingdom and the rise and fall of the Wang Group?" I asked.

"Throughout the ages, countless people have flocked to it for treasures. This once glorious ancient civilization has also left a treasure. This can be seen from the excavated cultural relics. You know, even the most powerful dynasties in ancient times did not have the luxury of casting sword scabbards and scabbards in gold. But the ancient Dian kingdom did it. ”

"You want to find the treasure of the ancient Dian Kingdom to save the Wang Group?" I sneered, "Even if you can find it, do you think money will solve everything?" ”

"Although money is not omnipotent, but it can make the Wang Group destroyed by Zhang Yelin and Li Ruiyuan run again, if I find the treasure, I will definitely be able to become the core personnel of the Wang Group, and I can rebuild the monitoring network of the warlocks, so that the warlocks can get back on track. Instead of the current situation of eating human flesh and robbing property. The harm caused by the Yin Gathering Warlock is more profound than that of Pudu Village. Hu Guoxing said, "Yichen, you have the last spirit stone on your body, it will be the last hope, if even you don't want to, sooner or later, the Wang Group will be dragged down by the rapidly growing Yin Gathering Warlocks." ”

Hu Guoxing frowned and looked at me, "If the Wang Group is completely destroyed, the situation will get even more out of control." You know, Yin Gathering Warlocks are human beings, and they can use the Dragon Lord and evil spells to harm people, but your Yang Warlock won't. Moreover, it is precisely because Yin Gathering Warlocks are not ghosts or spirits that every time a Yin Gathering Warlock kills a Yin Gathering Warlock, he will accumulate the next bad karma. ”

"It seems to be the way to eliminate demons, but in the end, every Yang Transformation Warlock will become a murderer, do you think it's worth it?" Hu Guoxing said, "In the past, there was Li Ruiyuan's unified supervision, but now, no one can do this." Yin Gathering Warlocks have formed small circles in various prefectures and cities, and they have elected their own leaders to continue to harm others in their cultivation. ”

Then, he looked at me and smiled bitterly, "Not everyone can rely on ghost power to kill people like you. Because this is the cultivation method of ghosts. Killing the Yin Gathering Warlock will not only be no obstacle to you, but your cultivation will increase. ”

"If you get the treasure, how will you control the Yin Gathering Warlock?"

It's true that I can't kill all the Yin Gathering Warlocks alone, but let's hear the truth about his solution.

"Reorganize the board of directors and vigorously train the Yang Warlock to compete with the Yin Gathering Warlock. There is a saying since ancient times that evil cannot prevail over good. I believe that with the help of the monks and Taoists, order will be restored again. Hu Guoxing said, "I don't want to make a mistake again, I hope you can give me a chance." ”

"Good! I'll try it, but if there's a treasure at all, I'm not sure. I'm also not sure if the legend of the treasure is true. But I have one request. If the treasure is really found. You must ensure that the core management of the Sunbreaker is included in the board of directors of the Wang Group! ”

Since it must be supervised, it may be much clearer to replace it with your own people. In this way, it can ensure that the Wang Group really plays a regulatory role, rather than the expansion of personal selfish desires.

"I promise you. I will provide you with all the help. Hu Guoxing said happily.

"Don't be too happy, I've already said that I may not be able to find the treasure you said, and this time I'm here mainly to find someone." I said, sighing.

I can't swim and that's a big problem. This time, it's about water.

"You arrange it, and when you're ready, you're ready to go." I said, it seems that this time I will take the spirit stone to the ghost ship to have a look.

I drew a talisman with my hand void and opened the barrier.

"Jun Ming," Hu Guoxing called Xiong Jun beside him, "After you get on the ship, you will be the captain, remember, you can't be a friend of the crew, you are their commander." Don't forget that and let others remember it too! We're warlocks, and these recruited crew members come from all sorts of complex backgrounds, and we don't have the ability to check everything about them. You have to be more attentive and communicate more with Yichen. ”

"Isn't the crew our own?" Xiong Junming asked suspiciously, "Our people may be safer." ”

"In the first three attempts, we used our own people, and we also had a lot of diving experience, but after getting on the ghost boat, we all disappeared. Only one Mo Qing survived. When he was found, he was in a state of confusion, with a handful of water plants stuffed into his pocket. These aquatic plants do not grow in freshwater lakes, they only appear in the sea! ”

Xiong Junming's eyes widened. "You mean ......"

"I suspect that this ghost ship will sail into an unknown territory. Most likely, it will sail into the sea. You know, the backbone of our warlocks is very strong, and when you encounter ghosts, you can't escape any of them. I think there were other reasons for their deaths. Therefore, none of the crew members recruited this time have the ability of warlocks, but when it comes to sailing, they are all good hands! ”

Hu Guoxing looked at me, "As long as the Dream Palm is here, her strength is enough to be a thousand in terms of ghost control." You come from a family of sailors, don't let the rest of the crew look down on the Wang Group! ”

Xiong Junming looked at the calm Xianfu Lake and said to Hu Guoxing: "Don't worry." I won't. ”

"I'll assign you a veteran to be the first mate." Hu Guoxing said.

After a moment of preparation, the crew of various costumes sat on a transport boat. I glanced at it, and there were three women mixed in, one of whom was also carrying a medical bag, presumably a doctor. I couldn't help but take a few more looks.

"Hey!" A sturdy man with a dark complexion stood up and said in a deep voice to Xiong Junming, who was wearing glasses, "My name is Xu Gaochang, and I am your first mate." ”

After speaking, he stretched out a strong hand and smiled at Xiong Junming.

Xiong Junming shook his hand.

"I'm a little surprised, this time I'm actually the first mate, I'm the captain." Xu Gaochang said, "Usually only the captain can choose his first mate. Did you choose me? ”

He had a deep scar on the back of his hand, and it seemed that he had more experience in sailing.

"The old man is your leader?" He looked back at Hu Guoxing on the shore, chewing a piece of sashimi in his mouth.

"Xiong Junming. Look at me and tell me if I've done anything wrong. Xiong Junming said at him.

"Don't worry, I won't hesitate." After speaking, Xu Gaochang said in a low voice: "I saw that you brought mercenaries, they have guns, do we also have them?" ”

Xiong Junming shook his head, "This is a tourist attraction, we don't have that kind of thing and won't carry it." Those mercenaries are just keeping us safe. ”

"What are you looking for in such a small lake? To be honest, if it weren't for the high salary, I really wouldn't have looked down on this place. Xu Gaochang turned around and said to a crew member behind him: "Xiaofu, are we all together?" ”

Xiaofu? Strange name. I frowned and suddenly reacted, it turned out that this crew member's surname was Chen. Because it is homophonic with Shen, it is called Xiaofu.

The crew also had a hoarse and loud accent, "It's all together, only three doctors, not ours." ”

"There's nothing in this lake, you don't want to dive, that's not our specialty." Xu Gaochang asked dissatisfiedly, "You should find divers." And you shouldn't be looking for ......" He looked ahead, and suddenly his mouth was open and he stopped talking.

The Mediterranean-style sailing ship appeared in the middle of Xianfu Lake.

The broken sails confirmed that it had weathered.

"You ......," he turned his head in confusion and shouted at Xiaofu, "Did you see the boat just now?" ”

Xiaofu shook his head, stunned by the old sailboat in front of him.

"Let's go back. It's gone. Xu Gaochang said. I believed my eyes, I had never seen a trace of a sailboat just now, how did I get to the middle of the lake, there was actually a sea ship anchored here.

This does not bode well.

Xiong Junming grabbed Xu Gaochang, "It's already been said." How to repent? ”

"Do you think I can't see it? Whatever it is, I'm not going to let my crew go up. Xu Gaochang replied, "If you want to go up, just go up." I'm telling you, I've eaten more sea salt than you've ever eaten. ”

I've heard a lot about the legend of the ghost ship. But they all have almost the same characteristics: they appear at night and have no crew. But it's noon, and Xianfu Lake is just a lake, and there is no mirage at all, it is an optical illusion, a virtual image formed by the refraction of light reflected by objects on the earth through the atmosphere.

And the sailboat in front of me does have a sense of reality, which is a strange and strange phenomenon.

"I'm the captain and must listen to me!" Xiong Junming shouted, "You have signed the agreement, if you ......"

"Breach of contract, huh? I'll pay you. If it's a big deal, I'll suffer a loss, anyway, I won't get on this ......ship," he swallowed, "boat." ”

He was afraid to say those words. It is estimated that this kind of story has either been encountered before, or I have heard too much. A sane seafarer is often able to withstand your confusion.

I actually resisted, because I didn't know how to water, and I didn't have a good impression of the boat. No matter how good your health is, you will encounter seasickness. Not to mention that Wang Xicheng is now on land, and he has little to do with this ship at all.

However, Hu Guoxing said that he found seagrass that only grew in the sea on Mo Qing's body, proving that they had been to the sea.

There is no sea near Nagumo Province at all.

There is only one possibility, this ship, possibly because of the traction of some kind of energy, will take them to a strange place.

No matter how you think about it, Mo Qing's appearance and Wang Xicheng's disappearance are both mysteries.

There's got to be something to discover.

I can't let this plan run aground. Since this ship has a huge connection with the Vermilion Bird Spirit Stone on my body, it is very likely that it is a secret left by the warlock.

Mo Qing must have been frightened by something that made him mentally insane again, but I am different from Mo Qing, and I am obviously much stronger.

At least the weird journey of my life didn't scare me to death.

"I'll add money to you." I stood up and threw a seductive look at Xu Gaochang.
