"Sister Xiao Ye is dead?!...... Jian Qi opened her mouth wide, and she couldn't close it for a long time.

Jiang Lao Turtle nodded heavily.

"That Ying Long didn't appear again, so our boatman survived by luck and was rescued by a passing boat, but," he sniffed: "Sister Xiao Ye will never come back!"

At this moment, the helplessness on Jiang Lao's face was just like the helpless young Jiang Xiaojiao who was soaking in the sea water and holding driftwood.

"What a respectable and admirable Sister Xiao Ye!" Bai Qianyu sighed for a long time, quietly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her fingers, and held Wei Xiao's hand: "She sacrificed herself and saved a boatload of people, but before she died, she told her loved ones to live well, her love is really the greatest love in heaven and earth! What do you say, Wei Xiao?"

Wei Xiao didn't seem to hear her words, and said to herself: "Strange. ”

Bai Qianyu was stunned and said, "What's strange?"

Wei Xiao raised his head and said, "It stands to reason that Ying Long shouldn't kill her, let alone kill this boatload of people." ”

Bai Qianyu said: "Why?"

Wei Xiao said: "If our previous inference is correct, assuming that the Sea Emperor is a person who tries to entrap and balance the forces of the various tribes of the Sea Clan, then when he sends Ying Long and makes a gesture to capture Yeats, the lord of the Shark Clan, he will first appease the King of the Shark Clan, that is, Ye Luan, Yeats's elder brother, and he will never tilt the balance to one side for the sake of the Xi Clan, and easily offend the Shark Clan, after all, no matter how strong or weak, the Xi Clan and the Shark Clan are his right-hand men." ”

The three of them all nodded.

Bai Qianyu said: "You are very right, and then what?"

Wei Xiao said: "If this is the case, then the Sea Emperor must have informed Yeats's elder brother, Ye Luan, the king of the mermaid race, before sending his subordinates Ying Long to go on the expedition!"

Bai Qianyu thought for a while, and said in a lost voice: "You mean, Ying Long came to catch Yeats, Ye Luan knows, right?"

Wei Xiao nodded slowly.

"That being the case," he continued, "then the Sea Emperor will also envelop the Merman Clan like the Xi Clan, and he will tell Ye Luan that he sent Ying Long only to scare Yeats, so that she will come back obediently, and promote the marriage of the two clans, which is a happy thing for all—of course, as the Emperor of the Eight Seas, this Sea Emperor's original words may be more beautiful than mine, but no matter what, Ye Luan was obviously moved by what he said and acquiesced in this arrest. ”

Bai Qianyu said: "Then you mean that the order that Ying Long received must be that he can only capture Yeats alive and not kill her?"

Wei Xiao nodded: "Exactly!"

"But what if Yeats has the determination to die, he must die with Ying Long?" Bai Qianyu said again.

"Then I don't know," Wei Xiao shook her head: "Even if Yeats's strength is too far from Ying Long, and she is not defeated by Ying Long, she can also send a request for help to her brother, I think between the mermen, there must be something similar to the sound transmission paper kite between cultivators, or the sonic connection between dolphins, not to mention between their brothers and sisters, they should be able to contact each other quickly, just like Ye Luan can track his sister to Jiang Xiaojiao's boat, the underwater palace of the merman clan, should not be far from there- As for why Yeats did not choose to ask his brother for help, but chose to die with Ying Long at such an urgent moment of life and death, I don't know!"

"Wei Xiao!" Bai Qianyu suddenly lowered his face and slapped his arm with two hands: "Sister Xiao Ye is dead, can't you accompany Uncle Turtle to be sad for a while, and think of such a messy thing?"

"This ...... It's not messy," Wei Xiao was stunned: "I just want to help Uncle Turtle analyze it calmly......"

"You're just too calm sometimes. Bai Qianyu glanced at him.

"Actually, I still have a sentence......" Wei Xiao wanted to speak and stopped.

"Let's say," Bai Qianyu's eyes softened: "Actually, I sometimes just like your calmness and rationality, less impulsive and fanatical, but more able to see the essence of things." ”

"Well," Wei Xiao nodded: "I also have an idea, if all the above inferences about the Sea Emperor are true, then this image of the Sea Emperor who steps on the crater, is violent and belligerent, often provokes the Heavenly Emperor, and floods the human world in this folklore may not be true, at least, it may not be all true, but one thing is certain." ”

Bai Qianyu said: "Which point?"

Wei Xiao said: "He has a Yinglong car with a bad temper. ”

Bai Qianyu pursed his lips: "Everyone knows this!"

Wei Xiao smiled slightly.

Whenever this happens, he always has a doting look on his face, as if looking at a coquettish little girl. If the clover is next to it, it must be jealous and protesting.

Suddenly, Jiang Lao Turtle sighed and said, "You say, where will people go after they die?"

Jian Qi was stunned and said, "Uncle Turtle, don't people go to the underworld after death, and their souls return to the underworld?"

Jiang Lao Turtle shook his head and said slowly: "I always feel that Sister Xiao Ye has not gone to the underworld, she is always still somewhere in this human world, looking at me......"

A cloudy old tear suddenly slowly flowed out of his eyes.

Bai Qianyu comforted him and said: "Uncle Turtle, I heard a fairy tale when I was a child, which said that after the mermaid dies, her soul will return to the sea, rush with the current, turn into bubbles in the sun, rise to the top of the clouds, and then turn into raindrops and land in her hometown. ”

She stretched out her hand, hugged Jiang Lao's arm, and gently comforted him with her right hand: "I think, Sister Xiao Ye's soul must have turned into rain and returned to the merman palace at the bottom of the sea, and lived happily with her brother and her people!"

Jiang Lao's arm was as thin as firewood, trembling slightly.

This old man, since Sister Xiao Ye left, has gradually withered from a high-spirited and strong young man, and his back has gradually become an inconspicuous old man.

Only when he recalled Sister Xiao Ye did his cloudy eyes light up with such a starlight, like the fire on the head of his cigarette gun.

Suddenly, he heard a person behind him say coldly: "How did I hear that there is a saying in the Buddhist scriptures that there are 'six realms of reincarnation', and all sentient beings enter the six realms because of the causes of all desires, and the so-called six realms are the heavenly path, the humane path, the animal path, the asura path, the hungry ghost path, and the hell path, so hell is not the only place for the soul of a person after death." The six realms of rotation are endless. ”

Bai Qianyu listened to this person's annoying virtue as soon as he opened his mouth, did not look back, and said coldly: "Will you die if you don't speak?"

The man clasped his hands in his sleeves, pulled his cotton shoes and stepped forward, and said with a smile: "The white girl hates me, as always." ”

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly sneezed a big sneeze, and immediately exchanged words, he took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped his nose, and looked at the snowflakes flying in the night sky: "On such a cold day, a few of you are sitting on the bow of the boat, and you are not afraid of frost?"

Bai Qianyu said with a straight face: "We are all kind-hearted people, we have our own good retribution, naturally we are not so easy to freeze, but like the owner of Ning Zhuang, the poisonous tongue all day and night, not only is it easy to freeze as just now, but it is very likely to go to hell in the future!"

The person who came was Ning Wuxi.

He was squeezed by Bai Qianyu for a few words one after another, but he didn't care, took a few steps forward, sat down on the woolen blanket, picked up Jian Qi's unfinished dragon paste wine bowl, raised his neck and drank it in one gulp, and then exhaled a breath: "Happy! No wonder a few of you are not afraid of the cold when you sit here and set up the dragon gate array, it turns out that as soon as you drink this wine, your whole body is warm!"

Jian Qi hurriedly snatched his hand from the wine bowl in his hand and put it down: "This wine is not for you, like you, a person who curses others to become beasts after death, and goes down to the Asura Dao, the Hungry Ghost Dao, and the Hell Dao, is not worthy of drinking the wine left by Sister Xiao Ye!"

Ning Wuyu wiped his mouth with his sleeve, and said slowly: "What I said is the truth!"

He glanced at everyone with his eyes, and found that he was really not very popular, so he snorted and said, "Actually, I also know that this spirit race born in the sea, if after death, there is still an unfulfilled wish, it will go to a mysterious place with a little obsession-" Speaking of this, he deliberately lengthened his voice: "Do you know?"

Then he opened his eyes and looked around, very satisfied to see that he had successfully aroused everyone's curiosity, and Jian Qi couldn't help but ask, "What ......?"

As soon as he said a word, he was glared at by Bai Qianyu, and the words behind him were swallowed back.

Ning Wuyu coughed dryly twice, and said: "That place is different from our place, neither like the human world, nor like the heavenly world, nor like the underworld, it is an independent space, with its own mountains and rivers, the sun and the moon rotate, and there are even more pavilions and cities, powerful and five mountains, fragrant grass, and colorful greenery, there, Sister Xiao Ye in your mouth, her soul will be richly nourished, and she can stay for a long time, or even a thousand years——"

At this point, he paused suddenly.

Jian Qi couldn't help but continue: "So, Sister Xiao Ye's soul is still there?"

Speaking of this, he was glared at by Bai Qianyu again, and immediately covered his mouth with his hand and stopped his mouth.

Ning Wuyu succeeded in his scheme, "hehe" smiled: "I'm in a good mood tonight, if you have anything you want to ask, just ask, I promise to answer them one by one, and I will never shirk them." ”

Jian Qi glanced at Bai Qianyu cautiously, and seeing that she no longer objected, he hurriedly let go of his hand and said, "What is the name of the place that Master Ning Zhuang said?"

Ning Wuyu said: "The Great Thousand Sand Realm is in the sea, that place is on the boundless sea, called 'Mirage', as for where it is, it is unknown!"

Jian Qi hurriedly said, "Didn't you say that you guaranteed to answer?"

Ning Wu smiled like a monk, and said: "I have already answered, that place is drifting, and those who have no fate are not allowed to enter the door, so even I don't know!"

Jian Qi said indignantly: "You liar!"

A smug smile appeared on Ning Wuyu's face.

Bai Qianyu said: "Master Ningzhuang, I also have a question to ask. ”

Ning Wuyu smiled more and more proudly: "White girl, please ask!"

Bai Qianyu said: "The east in front of me is about to turn white, it is the time when the long night is about to dawn, how can the owner of Ning Zhuang get up from the room and listen to a few of us tell stories?"

Ning Wuyu's smile suddenly condensed on his face, coughed, and said embarrassedly: "Isn't it also that I can't sleep at night, and I was frozen and woke up several times in bed, and then I simply got up, and accidentally saw a few of you sitting on the bow of the boat telling stories." ”

"Even the owner of Ning Zhuang has been woken up by freezing?" Wei Xiao was slightly surprised: "It seems that the place we went to in front of us has become colder and colder!"

In front of the boat, the sky was white, and a white sun shot out from behind the clouds, illuminating the surrounding clouds, but as if lazy and powerless, it cast a bleak light on the clouds.

Several people stood up from the woolen blanket and moved their hands and feet, but they all found that their hands and feet were a little numb from the cold.

The snowflakes in the sky were still falling, falling into the sea, and the water gradually turned a deep blue.

The snow that had fallen on the woolen blanket overnight turned into stagnant water, which ran down the deck, and in some places even froze.

The weather, sure enough, is getting colder and colder.
