Chapter Eighty-Four: Escape from the Merman Village

Inside the General's Palace.

Luo Jinyu's heart was full of anxiety, and it seemed that there was a pot of boiling water boiling in his chest.

He wandered back and forth in the study.

Finally, I heard a movement outside, and immediately looked in the direction of the door.

Meng Hongyi hurriedly ran in, "General."

He was just about to salute when he was stopped by Luo Jinyu, "There is no need to salute, you tell me, is there any place in the border city that is hidden and not easy to find?"

Meng Hongyi scratched his temples and thought carefully.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on him, waiting to hear his answer.

After a while, he suddenly opened his mouth wide, "By the way, General, I think of a place, but I'm not sure if that place really exists."

Hearing him say that, Meng Hongyao immediately took a step forward, "Brother, are you talking about the so-called Shark Village?"

"Well, yes, I remember seeing one from my mother earlier, and it said so.

That place seems to be in a mountain, and most people can't find that entrance, so our tile village is a bit like there."

When Luo Jinyu heard him say that, he knew a rough idea in his heart, and it was estimated that he couldn't tell where he was.

He seriously discussed with them, there are many mountains in the border city, but if you can really hide so many people, it will definitely not be very small.

Coupled with the fact that the old man comes out every day, it will definitely not be super far from here.

Also, if they are really sharks, they should also live close to the water.

If there are mountains and rivers, then it will be much easier to investigate.

Here he pondered.

Shu Zhihan slept until dawn over there.

When she woke up in the morning, she helped her grandmother prepare breakfast together.

After waiting for the old man to come back and finish eating together, she immediately stood up and bowed deeply to them.

"Grandparents, thank you for taking care of you, but I've thought about it, there are some things that are useless to avoid, and you should still face them seriously.

So, I'm going back, so thank you for the past two days."

Just as the old man was about to speak, he heard the old woman say, "Old man, where is your car? Don't tell me it's missing."

At the same time, Shu Zhihan was also heard, and when she looked at it, it seemed that she really didn't see the old man's car, and she couldn't help but feel a little strange.

By the way, his car is missing, how did he get back?

According to the long distance I had traveled before, I thought that if I had to walk back on foot, I would definitely not be able to come back to this point.

Looking at the old man's expression, he didn't seem to feel tired, this is the strangest part.

Shu Zhihan looked at them suspiciously, feeling that they seemed to have some secret here, and it was a big secret.

The old man saw her suspicious eyes, and immediately stepped forward and asked, "Child, why do you want to go back, so let's do it, my car is broken, and after two days it is repaired, I will send you out, do you think it's okay?"

You see, if you go out now, you may not be able to get out for a day."

The old man looked at her and seemed to be a little moved, so he took advantage of the victory and said, "Besides, my wife really likes you, so you should accompany her again, okay?"

Shu Zhihan couldn't stand the pitiful look of their old couple looking at her.

She couldn't help but nod, "Grandpa, grandma, I know, then I'll go back in a few days."

With her consent, the old couple seemed to suddenly let go of a big stone in their hearts.

Shu Zhihan looked at the smiles on their faces, as if she had fallen into a trap.

Her eyes glanced out of the courtyard, "Grandpa, I think it's nice to look out there, can I go out and take a walk."

The old man listened and wanted to stop,

But I thought there was no good reason to refuse.

In order not to let her think too much else, he smiled and nodded, "Okay, but you can't go far, in case you can't find it back then."

Shu Zhihan smiled and thanked him, nodded his head and turned around and trotted out.

The old man looked at the back of her leaving, and he couldn't take his eyes off it.

The old woman walked up to him and patted him, "What are you looking at, if you're worried about what she'll find, then don't let her run around, and, honestly, where did your car go?"

Hearing the old woman's questioning, the old man didn't have the courage to lie at all.

"Do you know where this girl came from?

General's Palace.

Now there are all people looking for her outside, and the general sent people out to search for me, and I didn't swim back to come back quickly and not be caught by them."

The old grandmother was surprised for a while, "I said, why did you come back and get wet."

The old man waved his hand, and then walked into the house.

After Shu Zhihan walked out of the yard, she stood outside and looked at the surrounding environment, and she seemed to feel some relief in her heart.

She didn't know why, but now she felt a little depressed when she saw the old man.

Running out of that yard, it seemed that he was suddenly relaxed.

She kept walking ahead, still trying to see if there was any place to get out.

Shu Zhihan didn't know how long she had been walking, but when she saw a large open space in front of her, she quickly ran over.

In the middle of the clearing there is a pond that is not particularly large.

She couldn't help but feel a little strange when she saw this, and probed carefully.

Some messy footprints were seen on the edge of the pool.

What is the situation, could it be that someone fell into the pool?

Shu Zhihan squatted down and looked at it, this footprint seemed to look a little familiar, as if it was an old grandfather's.

But why do you see his footprints here?

She looked at the pool again, and it turned out to be blue.

So, is it possible that the water is leading to the outside, or rather, to somewhere else?

This water is like living water, so there must be a mystery.

Shu Zhihan stood up and looked around to make sure that there was no one here, and then looked at the blue water in the pool again.

She couldn't help but have a very bold idea in her heart.

Thinking about it, I thought it might as well give it a try.

At that thought, she jumped straight into the pool.

Swimming further and further downstream, she couldn't help but find that the further down she went, the emptier it became, as if there was a large place below.

She swam hard, wondering how long she had been underwater, and thought she might as well go up and take a look.

Thinking about it, she pushed hard.

The moment the head came out of the water, it seemed that it was no longer with the old grandfather.

But what is this place?

Shu Zhihan wasn't sure if it was safe here, so she didn't dare to go ashore rashly.

Thinking about it, she continued to sink.

I remember that I seemed to see something just now, but it was only a flash, and I didn't see it clearly.

Taking advantage of this break, she planned to go down and take a look.

She swam back, in the direction of the old man and them.

When she got to the place where she had just found something, she sank to the bottom and reached out to take out a ball-like thing.

When I looked closely at the water, I felt that there was something in the ball.

Shu Zhihan smashed the ball in his hand directly into the stone below.

When the ball shattered, a small box fell out.

When she picked it up, she opened the box and saw something like a cloth with a dense drawing on it.

Shu Zhihan felt a little watchful

I don't know, but after thinking about it, I still stuffed things into my arms.

Then I swam forward as hard as I could.

I thought that no matter what, I couldn't go back to my grandfather now.

Shu Zhihan swam forward again, as if it had been a little longer, and even she didn't know that she could stay underwater for so long.

It wasn't long before she felt a sound in the water behind her.

It sounded like someone was swimming.

This realization couldn't help but make her heart nervous.

Could it be that the old man found out that he had run away, so he caught up, right?

The more Shu Zhihan thought about it, the more scared she became, but it didn't feel like the surface of the water, what should I do.

It's impossible to hide underwater, and the only way is to swim hard.

Luo Jinyu is still at a loss in the General's Mansion.

Meng Hongyi had been flipping through various books and maps, hoping to find a trace of the whereabouts of the merman village.

Luo Jinyu was a little irritable in his heart, so he asked them to continue looking, and he rode on his horse and went to Qingbo Lake.

He thought that the biggest clear water in the border city was in this place.

So, could it be that the hidden village is actually in this vicinity?

Thinking like this, I even more thought about going and investigating again.

He stood alone in front of Lake Aobami, looking at the calm surface of the lake.

After I don't know how long, I felt that the surface of the lake was a little fluctuating, as if there were fish below.

Seeing this, Luo Jinyu couldn't help but squat down and look carefully.

But at the same time, everything is prepared in case someone suddenly breaks out of the water.

Watching that fluctuating sense get closer and closer to me, it seems to be getting more and more anxious.

The closer he got, he could vaguely see that there was indeed a figure below.

Luo Jinyu was a little nervous in his heart, and he didn't know who would be here.

At that moment, he seemed to see some movement behind this figure again.

Aside from the words they don't say in the water, it's like two people chasing after you.

I could see that the person in front of me was very nervous, and the splash was getting bigger and bigger, more like he was a little exhausted.

When the figure arrived at the lake, he looked at it, and the raised head turned out to be Shu Zhihan.

Finding this, he immediately ran over and reached out and dragged her up.

Shu Zhihan also didn't expect to meet him in this place.

She grabbed Luo Jinyu's hand tightly, and her voice trembled, "Back... Someone is chasing me from behind."
