Chapter 154: The Bronze Scale Snake and the Merman
But when they checked it out, they really got unexpected news.
First of all, there really is such a fierce beast.
Except for the book provided by this young master, it is estimated that it has been mentioned.
They also found clues in other accounts.
There is an ancient book called Nautical Chart Zhiwei that records all kinds of monsters in the world.
They found a record of a snake named Bronze Scale in the chapter of the Great Demon of the Ancients.
Because originally they Pengzhan was doing demon beast cultivation work.
The focus of the work must be on those monsters that are clearly recorded alive in the present world.
The second is to screen out some of these monsters that they think have commercial value.
Simply put, most people are willing to spend money on it.
A monster that meets the definition of a general immortal cultivator's pet.
Those are the ones they focus on.
And like this kind of fierce beast, the bloodline of the ancient demon is basically no longer considered.
If it weren't for the fact that one of them has loved all kinds of monsters since he was a child, he would have read all the books about monsters on the market.
After hearing what the young master in Kyoto said, he suddenly remembered the sea charts he had read.
Among them, in the ancient demon chapter, there is a demon beast named Bronze Scale Snake.
It is rumored that in the Lethe River in the underworld, there is a family of copper-scaled snakes.
They specialize in devouring those ghosts who have drunk Meng Po soup but still can't let go of the memories of their past lives.
So this snake was called the snake of Lethe.
There are even rumors that the immortal Meng Po in the underworld was transformed by a bronze scale snake who has attained enlightenment.
But it's all rumors.
But the brass-scaled serpent does exist.
And in this copper-scaled snake, although it is not as good as some famous ancient demons.
But it can also be regarded as one of the most powerful creatures in the world.
And the environment in which it lives is unusual.
Therefore, the power of its bloodline is also very strong.
And the Nine Secluded Python mentioned by the young master, including the name, appearance, and description of the supernatural powers, are very similar to this copper-scaled snake.
So it's basically determined that at least this monster beast is not made up by the author of that ancient book.
After this person determined that this demon beast really existed, Peng Zhan slightly strengthened his intelligence gathering work on this big snake.
I went through the news recorded about snakes and monsters all over the world over the past five hundred years.
I don't know, I'm scared.
In the southern hemisphere of this world, within the territory of an official power called the Takeshima Alliance.
A place called Jiaoren Island.
Three hundred years ago, a strange thing happened.
The Jiaoren family, who originally lived on the island, was on a certain night.
All disappeared without a trace.
You must know that this Jiaoren Island is a large island with the highest status in the Bamboo Island Alliance.
Among them, the Tomi family lived in exchange for gifts that were often used in diplomacy by the Takeshima Alliance.
Most of the fish tanks in the homes of many officials and dignitaries all over the world will have one or two friends living in them.
Their singing voices are known as the most beautiful sounds in the world.
Such an important island is naturally the focus of the Takeshima Alliance.
The nearby guards didn't notice anything unusual at all.
This incident was a sensation at the time.
However, such a big news is something that the officials of the Takeshima Alliance do not want to see.
Because of their foreign trade income, the business of the people accounted for a large share.
This kind of news can have a real impact on revenue.
So they hurriedly published a report about the disappearance of the authors.
The report said that in fact, there was no disappearance at all, but the Jiaoren family had a tradition of swimming to the deep sea every 500 years to worship their ancestors.
That's why it creates the illusion of disappearance.
And ensure that the relevant transactions of the subsequent delivery can be carried out normally.
This is what curbed public opinion.
Such a rhetoric can be more than most people in the world.
But there is no way to hide it from Peng Zhan, these people who specialize in the demon beast business.
First of all, let's not talk about whether there is a tradition of worshipping ancestors.
Your Takeshima Alliance has been guarding the Jiaoren clan to death,
Is it really so kind to let the friends of the whole island go to the deep sea to worship their ancestors?
Can it be explained by a custom of respecting each other?
Moreover, after this incident, the number of diplomatic personnel exported by the Takeshima Alliance decreased significantly.
It sounds good to ensure the number of ethnic groups, but if you can't keep it, the Jiaoren on the Jiaoren Island is really gone.
The people who sold it later were scattered around some other small islands and arrested.
And according to the information they got from the whalers in the East China Sea, after that, the Bamboo Island Alliance's deployment around Jiaoren Island went to most of it.
The island has a perennial gray mist that exudes the smell of death.
The people around him all avoided it.
Originally, Peng Zhan thought that it was a conflict between the Takeshima Alliance and the Jiaoren clan, and the Jiaoren clan rioted or something.
The casualties were too great.
Because if too many residents of an area die, it will indeed produce that kind of fog, which means that God can't stand it.
There is another piece of news.
Almost every year in these years, some whaling ship will catch a huge snake in the sea.
But it has not been possible to determine what kind of breed it is.
And these snakes are getting bigger and bigger every year.
It hasn't been salvaged this year, but last year's snake has reached a length of 100 meters.
Basically, it's a big snake that grows rapidly at a rate of molting once a year.
It's just that the grade of demon beasts is not distinguished by their size.
Whether anyone has really seen the true face of this big snake, it is not easy to determine what kind of realm this snake demon is.
Originally, no one would have put these two pieces of news together.
Until this young master from Kyoto found Peng Zhan with an ancient book.
It was the same expert who thought of the copper-scaled snake before, and he made a comprehensive analysis of the location of the snake molt over the past few hundred years, combined with the ocean currents.
In the end, it was found that the location of this big snake was very close to Jiaoren Island.
And the snake molt only appeared after the accident on Jiaoren Island.
Therefore, he had every reason to suspect that this big snake was the culprit who caused the almost total annihilation of the Bowen clan.
And whether the island exudes the breath of death may not have been formed by God.
It's this python's own.
And this is also in line with the characteristics of the copper-scaled snake and the Nine Secluded Earth Python.
So he informed the senior management of Pengzhan of the news.
After a high-level meeting, they decided to send someone to Jiaoren Island to find out.
As for who to send, it is naturally the three Yuanying True Monarchs who are sitting in Pengzhan.
They didn't want the three primordial babies to get the python back when they got there.
Just make sure that there really is such a big snake with similar characteristics.
Inform the young master of the capital of this news.
It is believed that he will find enough manpower.
Later, he made efforts to catch the big snake back and get the 10,000 high-grade spirit stones.
Or just provide the message and earn money for one message.
We'll talk about that then.
