Chapter 198: Uncle

Soul Lantern Fish! Magic! A school of quidheads!

When these words were linked, the doubts in my mind suddenly came up with a reasonable explanation.

I remember that day I saw a school of fish with a lantern-like shape on its head in a crack in the mountain wall.

The lanterns above the heads of these fish also emit a strange dark green light, and the moment I saw those lights, my whole head suddenly appeared a wave of vertigo.

After that, I mysteriously appeared in a village with a large number of ogres.

It was all so natural that I couldn't help but feel like everything I had experienced in the village was real.

However, what puzzled me was why the illusion released through the soul lamp fish could make me, a person who cultivates Taoism, enter the illusion realm unconsciously?

According to common sense, if a cultivator wants to enter the illusion realm, it must require some processes that affect people's minds, and the time consumed in this process will be specifically estimated according to the strength of the caster.

To this day, I have never seen anyone who has been able to apply illusion to a cultivator without them noticing.

"Ouyang, it is estimated that you only cared about fleeing at that time and didn't look carefully, in fact, there are some strange things on the soul lamp fish we saw." As if sensing that I was in a strange state of thought now, Su Li, who was not far away, explained to me softly.

But when the words just floated out of his mouth, Ke Meng immediately turned around and looked at Su Li angrily, and immediately shouted: "Don't speak, as soon as I hear your voice now, I am very angry." ”

"What's wrong with you, Ke Meng, why do you speak to Su Li in such a tone, everyone is a friend, be polite." After hearing Ke Meng's sharp reprimand, my expression couldn't help but become strange.

I wonder why Ke Meng, a good lady on weekdays, has become so irritable today, and her tone is angry when she speaks several times.

After hearing my words, Ke Meng did not answer me directly, but smiled helplessly and bitterly: "Why did I talk to him like this, you ask him yourself." ”

With that, Ke Meng turned around and left the cabin, leaving only the doctor, Chu Tian, and Su Li with a bitter face.

"Su Li, what did you do to make Ke Meng so angry." After seeing Ke Meng's figure leave the cabin, I called Su Li to my side, and then asked in a low voice.

However, no matter how much I asked Su Li, he remained silent as if he had something unspeakable.

"Okay, okay, let me say, didn't you die in the water, Ke Meng was worried about you, and saw that you were unconscious when you came back, so he complained to Su Li that he didn't take good care of you and hurt you like this." Seeing that Su Li had not spoken for a long time, Chu Tian, who was standing on the side, finally couldn't bear it anymore, so he explained to me helplessly.

"Hey, just this matter, what's the big deal, it's okay Su Li don't take it to heart, don't I have nothing to do now? Ke Meng is also anxious about me, don't be angry with her, it's really not good, I'll apologize to you for her, okay. "Then I'm going to get out of bed.

And Chu Tian and Su Li on the side saw me like this, hurriedly rushed over, helped me back to the bed, and said in unison: "Okay, okay, you take care of your injuries." ”

"I suspect that the soul lamp fish you encountered underwater should be a fish that grew up eating human flesh, so a kind of energy mass is gradually formed in their bodies, and this energy group is quite powerful, which is not comparable to ordinary people." At this point, Chu Tian's expression suddenly became strange.

"But fortunately, they can't visualize this energy cluster as an attack weapon, but use their special ability to use the power of the energy cluster in the form of illusion, which is why when they use illusion on you, you will be hit without even noticing." After hearing the explanatory words floating out of Chu Tian's mouth again, I suddenly realized.

It seems that the large number of ogres eating human flesh and blood that I saw in the illusion before should have been excavated from the depths of the minds of these soul lamp fish.

After all, to release the illusion, you need to first construct a picture of the illusion in your mind, and then use the power to catalyze the party to get twice the result with half the effort.

However, what puzzles me is, where did the large number of soul lamp fish come from to provide them with human flesh for food? Don't

"Ouyang, I think you should have already sensed the problem, those soul lamp fish and the qui tooth fish appeared together, and when the smell of blood appeared in the qui tooth fish's nest, they immediately rushed over, so, if the estimate is correct, the various gases that permeate the corpses stored in the kui tooth fish's nest should be the ghosts of these soul lamp fish." As Chu Tian's introduction continued to appear, Su Li beside me also stepped forward to add.

And after the two of them took turns to introduce me, I already had a general understanding of the strange things I encountered in the sea before.

"With the current situation, if we go to the sea, it is estimated that there will be more bad luck, I think we should dock first and discuss the specific measures before it is too late." Now, after thinking about it for a long time, I made the decision to retreat from the two in front of me.

And when they heard my decision, they unanimously agreed. After all, there are steel-toothed crodonts under the sea today, and if we provoke them, it is estimated that our ship will be bitten and sunk by them.

After that, what kind of fate will we end up in, I guess I don't say they will all know very well.

At the moment when we decided to knock on the board, Abin stepped down from the deck and looked at me with a worried face: "Captain, are you okay?" ”

"I'm fine, Abin, what's wrong, is there anything you want to find me?" Although Abin was very indifferent at the moment, I could faintly feel that his breathing was so heavy, as if something urgent was pressing on his heart.

"I'm sorry, but when I was cleaning the deck outside, I overheard your conversation, is it true that you said that there are quilodons on the bottom of the sea?" At this time, after hearing my inquiry, Abin said what he thought in his heart without reservation.

"Abin, what's the matter, have you ever heard of this thing?" As soon as Ah Bin's words came out, the three of us present immediately became surprised, and Chu Tian on the side asked eagerly.

Now we seem to be able to feel that the Abin in front of us seems to know some amazing news.

"I've only heard of it, but I've never seen it, but my uncle did, and besides, my father died in the mouth of this strange fish, and there are no bones left." As Abin's words continued to float out, the corners of his eyes involuntarily flashed with a layer of crystal tears.

"Your uncle has seen it? When did you see it? At this moment, Chu Tian walked forward, patted Ah Bin's shoulder with sympathy, and then continued to ask.

"That's what he saw many years ago when he went out to sea to fish, and my father died on that occasion, and my uncle hasn't been to the sea since, and according to what he told me at the beginning, there is a sea god in this ocean, and they accidentally alarmed the sea god, and the sea god will send bad luck." At this point, Abin's expression became more and more bitter.

"Now I know very well that there must be no sea god in this ocean, and I don't know if that thing called a quilo exists. But when I heard what you just said, I was completely convinced that there was indeed a toothfish in this ocean. When Abin spoke, in addition to missing his father, he also felt anger towards the toothfish, angry why it ruthlessly took his father away.

"Ah Bin, I wonder if we can go and meet your uncle, maybe we can get some useful information from him." After calming Ah Bin's mind a little, Chu Tian said tentatively.

Now, apart from us, the one who knows the most about the toothfish is this uncle, and maybe, we can get some information about the habits of the toothfish, the place of residence and so on from the mouth of the uncle.

You know, a small mistake in the ocean can lead us into an irretrievable stalemate.

If it weren't for Su Li's fast swimming speed before, it is estimated that we would have already reached the belly of the kui tooth fish now, how could we stand here and talk.

And this is the consequence of our panic into the water without planning, after absorbing the previous consequences, we must be fully prepared this time, and strive to see the crisis after entering the water to the lightest.

"Yes, but before I do, I need to contact my uncle." After hearing Chu Tian's words, Abin wiped the tears from his cheeks, then turned around and returned to the control room alone, and drove the boat in the direction of the coast.

Because the signal in the ocean was not very good, the phone could not be reached, so it took us nearly half a day to drive the boat to the vicinity of the coast, and then we successfully dialed Uncle Abin's phone.

But at the moment when the phone was connected, a dull woman's voice came from the other end of the phone, revealing weakness in the voice, as if crying: "It's Abin, is there something wrong?" ”

"Auntie, what's wrong with you, why are you crying?" After hearing the sound on the other end of the phone, Abin asked eagerly.

"Your uncle, a few days ago, suddenly fell unconscious. During this time, I was in the hospital every day, and this morning the hospital suddenly sent a critical illness notice, saying that we should prepare for the future. When the words on the other end of the phone came out, Ah Bin's expression suddenly froze on the spot, and the phone in his hand fell on the deck because it was free from the shackles of his palm.
