Chapter Eighty-Five: The Only Way 3
readx;
If the death of the Rose Garden is comparable to a massacre, then the "Rose and the Skull" will face a brutal gravedigger!
On the first night after the destruction of the Rose Garden, the wind and clouds surged, the weather changed, and the original "smiling face" in the sky was switched into the angry face of a menopausal woman! The sky and the earth were black and endless, and five thunders thundered, lightning and thunder roared, and then the storm was raging, and the black waves on the sea were monstrous, dancing with the wind, like thousands of devils stretching out, and then slapping and slapping and slapping!
Of course, by the faint light of the stone lamp, nothing could be seen in the darkness, and no one was in the mood to see it, for the busy would be so busy that they would almost fall into the sea, and the frightened and the unhelpful would hide in the corners of the cabins, praying, and be shaken around like the dice of a drunkard's dice! The mast was broken, the ship was leaking, the ship was almost overturned, and all kinds of unimaginable tests were in the midst of this raging storm!
It was natural to see how sad the night was for them, and the most important thing was that they all survived until the weather improved, which was already noon the next day. All www.biquge.info past the sky, the sky returned to its original smiling face, a mocking expression, many people looked up blankly, I don't know whether it was the joy of immortality or the inexplicable sadness, anyway, their hearts are actually not still surging in the same way? Even if this kind of weather is almost as ordinary as changing clothes for these sailors, but every time they change clothes, who doesn't look in front of the mirror for a long time?
After this storm, they looked at the wolf ship, and found that the losses were as heavy as usual, and what was even more terrible was that several crew members were swept into the sea, so although everyone still joked, their hearts were actually very heavy. People who have experienced a lot of vicissitudes of life in this way will inevitably become numb. It was a miracle that the ship was "alive" after being beaten like this, and although the crew tried their best to repair it, they were very short of materials after all, and many of them were swept into the sea, so they had to find a port or island to repair the ship, otherwise they would not be able to continue the journey to the source of the Holy Spirit.
Now, no one is sure where the ship has drifted, and there is a vast expanse of black water in all directions, and without a compass rose, they are blind! They gathered on the deck and discussed countermeasures, but it seemed that no one had anything to say, and it was more like a memorial service.
The one-eyed baby was the first to break the silence: "What now, where do I go?"
Amu said: "You don't know where this is, what else are you talking about where to go?"
Wu Liang said: "When the sun or moon comes out, we will know a general direction" As a crew, this should be a matter of common sense, but this is the Black Sea, they have compass roses, so this aspect of things is actually very little learned, the "compass" is useless in the Black Sea, because the magnetic field here is very chaotic, once placed here, the pointer will be immediately broken! But such common sense as "the sun rises in the east" even a three-year-old child knows. And they're crew members, at least they know a lot about sailing, after all, it's not the first day they've been here.
The one-eyed baby sneered: "This is a fart, our ship is almost finished, who knows how far we can go? besides, there is bad news for you: most of our food and fresh water have been washed into the sea!
Wu Liang said: "I measured the direction last night, and the wind just blew us towards the side of Half Immortal Island, we can drive there to repair it." "Half-immortal island is also an island country in the East Black Sea, the area is much larger, where the immortal aura lingers, and people live a kind of half-immortal and half-human life, that is, they put their body and spirit into their only belief in cultivating immortals!
The one-eyed baby said, "Tell me where it is, where is it?"
Wu Liang said: "I don't know until I watch the sky at night. ”
The one-eyed baby said: "You can only blow, who knows when the stars will come out in this weather?"
Makes sense, hit the nail on the head!
"I'm not afraid," said none other than their legendary captain Rose, "I know where the strange island is" He took out a clay pot, the roses in which had long since withered, but he stuck the roses in his mouth into it.
The one-eyed baby was startled and said, "This is." ”
Rosewood laughed and said, "Don't you know that I have roses on me too?"
Amu looked disdainfully and said: "What's the use of this, it's not a compass rose!"
"Of course not, this is the Sea Fairy Rose, which can sense the existence of immortal energy thousands of miles away." ”
Amu touched his chin and said, "In other words, it can feel the immortal qi." ”
Shame Rose smiled: "I don't believe you"
The Sea Fairy Rose originally looked very haggard in the mouth of the Rose, but it quickly regained its vitality in the soil, and then it turned around and pointed in one direction like a compass! Then, the color of the petals changed from red to flower color, which shows that the destination is not far from here. But after a while it began to sway slightly, but not by a large margin, so the general direction was still recognizable.
Silly Star screamed: "It's so beautiful, it's a magical flower~" Her eyes have probably turned rose-colored, and if someone gives him this flower, it's hard to succeed!
Tao Xiaozhi sighed and said, "Now it's okay, it's become a 'compass rose'!"
"Okay, now the whole crew will tell me to head towards Half-Immortal Island!"
Tao Xiaozhi said: "Then what should we do when we go to the source of the Holy Spirit?"
"Then let's talk about it when we get to the Half-Immortal Island, who knows if we still have the life to reach the source of the Holy Spirit alive?"
Wu Liang seemed to ponder for a long time, and then suddenly said: "I can't go to the half-immortal island."
The one-eyed baby said, "If you don't go, are you waiting here to die?"
Wu Liang said, "Haven't you heard what happened on Half Immortal Island?"
The one-eyed baby said suspiciously, "That can't be true, right? ”
Wu Liang stroked his beard and said thoughtfully: "I'd rather believe it than believe it." ”
Tao Xiaozhi said: "What's wrong with it?"
The one-eyed baby preemptively said: "I heard that the place is being invaded by the ghostly qi, and the fairy qi is being swallowed little by little. ”
Amu scratched his head and said, "How did this ghostly aura come out?
Wu Liang said: "Let me ask you: Where is the strongest ghost qi in this world?"
Amu said: "It seems to be a ghost island, where have I been, as a ghost, the 'air' there is really unbearable." ”
Wu Liang nodded and said, "Yes, it's there." ”
Amu said: "If I remember correctly, Ghost Island is in the Western Black Sea, and Demi-Immortal Island is in the Eastern Black Sea, which should be far away, how did they float over?
Wu Liang said: "The West Black Sea is the real Dead Sea, there is almost no wind all year round, and there is no strong wind, so the power of the ship is generally manpowered, even if there is wind, and the wind is strong enough, it will not blow away such a thing as 'ghost'."
Amu said: "Why?"
Wu Liang said: "Because the ghost qi is originally something that cannot be seen or touched, only the underworld such as ghosts and other people really feel its existence, ordinary people can't stand this kind of gas, if you inhale too much, it will be like poison gas poisoning or suffocation." So the wind can't actually take away the ghostly atmosphere. ”
Amu said: "Then how did it get to the East Black Sea?"
Wu Liang had a shadow on his face, and said solemnly: "Of course this has something to do with the owner there."
"Is it the ghost master?" Tao Xiaozhi exclaimed.
Wu Liang said: "Yes, the ghost qi was brought by her!"
Amu said: "Why did she do this? Could it be that she has a grudge against the Half-Immortal Island?"
Wu Liang sneered, "Have you ever heard of her 'Ghost Empire Territory Project'?"
Amu was shocked: "She wants to invade the Half-Immortal Island" In fact, the people present had the same expressions as Amu.
Wu Liang said: "She is not an old woman who likes to lie in a rocking chair and watch the sunset, her ambition is not ordinary, it is comparable to the current Demon Emperor Night Crescent!"
The one-eyed baby sneered: "This is called 'Lao Ji Fu Fang, aiming for a thousand miles'!"
Wu Liang said: "So, now that the immortal qi of the Demi-Immortal Island is being polluted, the people (De-Immortals) there have to give up their daily immortal cultivation activities, and all the people are soldiers, preparing for the battle with the Ghost Island! So, when we go there, aren't we short-circuiting? If others don't treat us as spies, they are enemies!"
Silly Star sighed and said, "The Demon Domain and the Holy Spirit Source are fighting, and that restless old woman is making trouble everywhere, it's a mess in the world!"
Tao Xiaozhi said: "But if I don't go to Half Immortal Island, where else can I go?"
This is obviously a good question, a reality that cannot be escaped.
Wu Liang said self-deprecatingly: "This seems to be the only way." ”
