Chapter 5: The Spirit of the Boat

The boat stayed firmly on the surface of the sea, as if there was a force that kept it unaffected by the waves.

With a heart of awe, Wan Tiandong and the three of them climbed the deck along the rope ladder hanging down the side of the ship.

The ship is about eight meters wide and about 30 meters long, with a front deck of five meters and a rear deck of about three meters. On the fore and foredeck stood wooden towers, two identical black wooden towers, carved with runes.

In the middle of the ship is a three-story residential building. The second and third floors have a narrow walkway in front and back, protected by a parapet, a small blue tower on the roof, and a tower-like building surrounded by a white parapet.

There are stairs on the front and rear decks, and the stairs are relatively steep, each step is more than a meter high, which is obviously not intended for ordinary people.

The staircase leads to the rooftop, as well as to the second and third floors, with a small room at the bottom of the staircase. Next to the middle house there is a one-meter-wide aisle that connects the front and rear decks.

Wan Tiandong and the three of them probed along the hull of the boat, circled around, and returned to the same place.

The three of them didn't have the slightest clue, but they didn't dare to trespass, after all, it was once a ship of the powerhouses of the Holy Domain, who knows if there would be other arrangements.

"This old turtle doesn't explain clearly! What should I do now!" Wan Tiandong was helpless, this was all at the door, but he didn't know what to do.

"If we don't look room by room, there will always be clues!" Qianhu came up with an unreliable idea, which was a bit dangerous.

"No, what if the strange rune array is triggered, it's too dangerous" Ke Qiongji objected, and the three of them didn't know anything about the rune array.

"Young master, I'll go investigate first, be careful, it should be fine!" Qianhu raised the giant axe in his hand, as if to enhance his persuasiveness.

"No, Qianhu, you are not allowed to say such things in the future, you are all my cherished family members, let's think of other ways!" Wan Tiandong said categorically, and the expression on his face could not be refused.

"Family!" Hearing this, Ke Qiongji was stunned, muttered softly, and looked at Wan Tiandong's eyes softer a lot.

"Come to the lord's room on the third floor!"

A vague voice suddenly sounded in Wan Tiandong's ears, he listened carefully, but there was nothing, it seemed that it was his hallucination just now.

"Did you hear any strange voices!" Wan Tiandong looked left and right, saw that the two of them were puzzled, and asked.

"What's wrong?" Ke Qiongji looked at Wan Tiandong suspiciously.

"No, young master!" Qianhu shook his head.

"That's weird, it seems that someone told me just now, let me go to the room on the third floor!" Wan Tiandong said with some surprise.

"Then go to the third floor, the old turtle shouldn't hurt us!" Ke Qiongji suggested.

"Okay! that's all!" Wan Tiandong was the first to step up the stairs.

Although the predecessor had a certain cultivation foundation, such a staircase still made Wan Tiandong a little difficult.

Qianhu came from behind, looking very relaxed, holding the giant axe tightly and protecting it in front of Wan Tiandong.

There were two side-by-side rooms on the third floor, and Wan Tiandong could clearly feel that there was something at the end of the corridor that attracted him.

Pushing open the door, you will see a small altar with a stone tablet on it, covered with strange patterns.

Wan Tiandong's eyes were instantly attracted by the stone stele, and without waiting for the two of them to react, he stepped on the altar and unconsciously put his hand on the stone stele.

"Whew!"

A sharp pain came from the palm of his hand, Wan Tiandong couldn't help but snort, and sweat droplets the size of beans came out of his forehead. Wan Tiandong subconsciously retracted his hand, but his palm was firmly glued to the stone tablet, not moving at all.

The stele was sucking his blood incessantly.

Qianhu felt that the young master was abnormal, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop it.

"Don't move, I'm fine, I'm fine!" Wan Tiandong shouted.

He was getting weaker and weaker, but his spirit was better than ever.

There was a voice in his heart telling him that he was in a very important process now, and he could not be interrupted, otherwise, something bad would happen.

It didn't take long for Wan Tiandong to be about to lose his support, a soft air flow came from the stone tablet, and a paragraph suddenly appeared in his mind.

"The fountain of oath is above, and I, Wan Tiandong, am willing to make a contract with this ship and become the lord of this ship. ”

Wan Tiandong followed his thoughts and read it out involuntarily.

The spell seems to have magical powers.

The altar and the stele immediately emitted gray energy, surrounding the Ten Thousand Heavenly East and the altar.

A blood-colored symbol appeared out of thin air, split into two, and shot into the stone tablet and Wan Tiandong's forehead respectively.

The pattern of the ship appeared on the back of Wan Tiandong's hand, which was lifelike, as if it was born with a birthmark.

Wan Tiandong immediately felt that he had an unexplained connection with the stele.

The stone tablet flashed with a ghostly light, and a large amount of information poured into Wan Tiandong's head like sea water.

His head shook violently, making him look dazed.

Here we go again! Wan Tiandong wants to cry without tears.

It took a while to recover, and Wan Tiandong gently rubbed his faintly aching head.

"Lord Lord, you're finally here!" The immature child's voice came into Wan Tiandong's ears, and the voice was soft.

"Who's coming out!" The voice made Wan Tiandong feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity, it was the voice just now that guided him here.

"I'm the ship's spirit, didn't we sign a contract! If you think about it in your mind, you'll understand!" The voice sounded directly in Wan Tiandong's head.

Wan Tiandong concentrated, and a large amount of information unfolded in his memory, making his brain feel like he was eating.

It turned out to be the Spirit of the Ship. The ship spirit can only be born by the holy rank ship, and it is the ship that advances to a certain level and gives birth to life characteristics.

As the embodiment of the ship, the ship spirit can easily control everything about the ship. Exists with the existence of the ship and dies with the destruction of the ship, and the two are symbiotic.

"Come out, he's both his own people!" Wan Tiandong shouted at the stone tablet.

For a long time, there was no movement.

When Ke Qiongji and Qianhu were strange, a little girl with a big palm came out of the stone tablet, looked around timidly, and saw Wan Tiandong, her eyes lit up, and she jumped over.

Wan Tiandong hurriedly dragged it with his hand, and the little girl accidentally didn't stand firmly, and fell into the palm of her hand.

Wan Tiandong saw the creature in front of him clearly, this is a small person with a big palm, wearing a blue sleeveless skirt, covering all parts of the neck down except for the hands, and the bottom of the skirt is covered with wavy water lines, expanding but not scattering.

A super cute, elf-like little person.

Wan Tiandong could sense that he had an inexplicable connection with the little girl, and as soon as his mind moved, he could feel the little girl's thoughts, which should be because of the signing of the contract.

At this moment, the little girl's eyes became sparkling, and it seemed that tears were about to fall.

Wan Tiandong sensed that the memory of the villain at this time was blank, but he had a strong sense of dependence on him.

He also had an indescribable sense of closeness to the little girl, as if the little girl in front of him was his relative.

"Just now, were you talking to me?" Wan Tiandong carefully held the little girl in front of him.

"Hmm!" the little girl tapped her little head.

"What happened just now?" Wan Tiandong said softly.

"Sign the contract, and the ship will be your domain ship!, you will be my lord from now on!" replied the little girl timidly, looking at Wan Tiandong pitifully.

At this moment, the little girl's eyes became sparkling, and it seemed that tears were about to fall.

Wan Tiandong sensed that the memory of the villain at this time was blank, but he had a strong sense of dependence on him.

He also had an indescribable sense of closeness to the little girl, as if the little girl in front of him was his relative.

"Just now, were you talking to me?" Wan Tiandong carefully held the little girl in front of him.

"Hmm!" the little girl tapped her little head.

"What happened just now?" Wan Tiandong said softly.

"Sign the contract, and the ship will be your domain ship!, you will be my lord from now on!" replied the little girl timidly, looking at Wan Tiandong pitifully.

"Lord! That's a good title, you can call me my lord's brother!" Wan Tiandong said happily.

"You must become the Lord of the Sea within half a year, otherwise, the contract will collapse, we will all be attacked by the contract, and the lord's life will be in danger!"

"I want to call Brother Lord or Brother Tiandong!" Wan Tiandong is a natural optimist, and there is still half a year, and there is plenty of time.

"Don't worry, I will soon become the Lord of the Sea, and then, we will gallop the sea together!" Wan Tiandong rubbed the little girl's head with his index finger.

Feeling the firmness of Wan Tiandong's words, the little girl relaxed.

"Do you have a name of your own?" Wan Tiandong asked happily as he looked at the cute little thing in front of him.

"I--I forgot!" replied the little girl, thinking for a moment, her little face furrowed, and she thought bitterly.

From the information just now, Wan Tiandong clearly knew that this was a normal phenomenon.

When the Golden Spring Saint Monarch fell, the ship that was his territory degenerated into a non-rank, and the ship spirit should also dissipate.

The Golden Spring Holy Monarch used a secret method to preserve the ship spirit, and the ship spirit fell into a long sleep, and the memory disappeared little by little. Five hundred years later, awakened by him again, all the memories have dissipated, and he has become a new ship spirit without the slightest memory.

"In the future, I'll call you Fluttershy, Wan Xiaodie, we're a family, how about it!" Wan Tiandong secretly regretted that he really didn't mention which pot, which pot to mention, and said softly.

"Uh-huh!" replied the little girl crisply, with a shy smile on her little face, and her heart was snickering.

"Come and get to know Brother Qianhu and Sister Qiongji, they will be a family in the future!" Wan Tiandong walked down the altar.

"This is the Spirit of the Ship, Fluttershy!" Wan Tiandong looked at the two pairs of wide-eyed eyes and introduced them to both sides.

"Is this the ship spirit? so cute!" asked Ke Qiongji in surprise, a sweet smile on her face, this was the first time she had shown a happy face.

As soon as the little girl appeared, her eyes were already attracted and she couldn't take her eyes off it.

Sure enough, no matter where they are, girls don't have the slightest resistance to cute things.

"Well, it's the ship's spirit ---!," Wan Tiandong replied, explaining to the two of them what had just happened.

"Can I hug it?" Ke Qiongji was eager to try, stretched out her pink jade hand, and spread it out to Wan Tiandong's hand.

There was a soft touch on his hand, which made Wan Tiandong's heart flutter slightly.

Afraid of the abrupt beauty, Wan Tiandong hurriedly gathered his mind and gave the little guy an encouraging look.

Fluttershy hesitates and strides towards Ke Qiongji's palm.

Ke Qiongji smiled skillfully, so beautiful that people didn't dare to look at it directly.

Seeing that Wan Tiandong's eyes were straight, fortunately Ke Qiongji's attention was always on Fluttershy, and she didn't notice his pig brother's appearance.

"This little girl's skin is not cold, and it is too seductive, and she doesn't let people live, this is a foul!"

Wan Tiandong complained in his heart, hurriedly diverted his attention, looked at Qianhu who was envious on the side, and said jokingly.

"Qianhu, it's cute, or you hug it too!"

"I still don't want it! I'm clumsy!" Qianhu scratched the back of his head, and his slightly ugly face showed an embarrassed expression.

"Young master, isn't there a hidden treasure?"

Wan Tiandong remembered that there was still a treasure of the Holy Monarch waiting for him.
