Chapter 116: What is a ghost, what is a god?
Penglai merchant ships all the way south, drifting across the sea, after traveling thousands of miles, there are many reefs on the sea surface, the merchant ships are on the sea, the reefs and mountains on both sides are like animal teeth, and the merchant ships are swallowing the mouth.
The sea breeze was bleak, and the lonely ship looked very withered in the night.
Originally, the moon was above the sea surface, but at some point, a treacherous water mist evaporated from the sea.
Inside the cabin, Qin Mu squinted his eyes, as if he was asleep, he was cultivating in his soul.
This kind of cultivation has made his spiritual sense much sharper, since breaking through the seventh layer of the "Proud Divine Technique", Qin Mu's spiritual sense has entered the peak realm, and the range of induction has already exceeded 100 meters, and the wind and grass around him are moving, even if the sound of the wind passing, he can clearly sense it.
I don't know how long it was, but I suddenly heard a strange noise in my ears, and when I opened my eyes, the cabin was so dim that I couldn't see anything if it weren't for the two oil lamps hanging on the bulkhead.
At this time, it was pitch black outside the cabin, except for a few glimmers of light from the lamps hanging on the deck.
Nevertheless, this was enough for Qin Mu.
After these few days of cultivation, his spiritual sense slowly recovered, so even if it was pitch black around him, he could clearly sense what was happening around him.
That's the beauty of spiritual awareness.
Ordinary cultivators can visually measure 100 meters in the dark just by relying on spiritual sense, and even when they are fighting, cultivators can rely on the power of spiritual sense to close their eyes and kill people from a distance of 100 meters.
Of course, the stronger the spiritual sense, the larger the range of induction, and Qin Mu's spiritual sense has already reached an extremely high realm.
Qin Mu closed his eyes, and countless invisible spiritual senses emanated from his body, and they were about to explode, flowing to all parts of the cabin like a tide, not even letting go of the dark corners in the cabin.
With his super spiritual sense, he saw that most of the people in the cabin had already rested, and the guards patrolling the deck were also asleep in a daze, and even two of them snored.
In a particularly elegant room, the young man dressed as a man also fell asleep quietly, while beside his bed, a maid in an emerald green water skirt was napping "chickens pecking rice".
"Hehe, these boys are still waiting by their side when they sleep, it's really comfortable. Qin Mu shook his head helplessly, frowned in vain, and his eyes opened suddenly.
Because, he sensed it, someone was hurrying towards the room he was in.
"Is Gongzi Qin here?" said an old man's voice outside the cabin.
"Who is it?" Qin Mutong sensed, he already knew the identity of the person who was talking outside, but he still asked deliberately.
Before the words fell, Qin Mu cautiously sacrificed the qi in his body, this old man didn't treat himself very well on weekdays, could it be that he visited late at night to plot against himself?
"Could it be that the weird sound just now was also caused by that old guy?" Qin Mu's heart moved, and in vain-
"Squeak!" sounded, but saw an old man in black walk in the door, and as expected, it was Li Changqing.
After the comer came in, he was silent, just staring at Qin Mu, and didn't speak for a while, Qin Mu looked at him and found that the old man had a suspicious look on his face, and he seemed to smell movement.
After a while, Li Changqing also seemed to see that something was wrong with Qin Mu, glanced at Qin Mu, and stopped talking, but didn't say a word, leaving only one sentence, "It's nothing." Then he went out of the cabin again.
Li Changqing's late-night visit, and then leaving silently, undoubtedly shocked Qin Mu, Qin Mu was stunned, his back was cold, and he smiled awkwardly.
"Isn't this old guy sleepwalking, isn't it? Or maybe he couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, and suddenly remembered me, and then came over to say goodnight to me?" or—" Qin Mu shuddered all over his body when he thought of this, and felt that something was wrong, "Definitely not like this, presumably the old man also smelled that sound, and this old guy must have thought that voice was done by me, hum, what a cunning guy!"
If it was really what Qin Mu thought, this undoubtedly showed one thing, that is, this Li Changqing was watching Qin Mu all the time.
In vain, Qin Mu frowned, because, that voice appeared again.
The sound came out again and again, it seemed to be the sound of impact, but it was difficult to hear where the sound came from for a while, and even Qin Mu's spiritual sense could not accurately and precisely locate the sound.
What is certain, however, was that the sound came from the eerie fog surrounding the ship.
Qin Mu jumped out of bed, and then walked out of the cabin, and when he arrived outside the cabin, he saw that the old man in black gently woke up the sleepy guards, and then whispered a few words to a companion, and the guard with a knife immediately led the rest of the guards to walk cautiously to the other side of the deck.
The old man squinted his eyes slightly and saw Qin Mu come out, and said with a faint smile: "Your Excellency, didn't you also hear any movement?"
Qin Mu smiled silently, and his heart moved, "It turns out that I spent the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain just now, and this old man didn't doubt me." ”
"Your Excellency doesn't speak, and the old man knows what you're thinking, are you thinking, I suspect that you made the movement?"
Qin Mu was still smiling and silent, but his heart was shocked, his intuition told him, this old man was not an ordinary person.
Qin Mu glanced around him, and found that there was a lot of peace around him, so he felt that nothing had happened, and he was about to turn around and go back to the cabin, but he saw that Li Changqing suddenly flew out of his sleeve with an extremely sharp silver whip, the speed was extremely fast, as if a spiritual snake came out of a hole, the silver sharp whip was aimed at Qin Mu's throat in the blink of an eye, and then, the three guards with knives who had left appeared behind Qin Mu ghostly at some point, and pulled out the long knives on their waists one by one, blocking the hatch.
Qin Mu frowned, but there was no fear on his face, he just said lightly: "What does this mean?"
Li Changqing was dressed in black, but his old appearance exuded a bit of murderous aura, this momentum shocked Qin Mudu, and he could only hear him sneer: "Where did Your Excellency come from, what is the conspiracy on our ship?"
Qin Mu sighed and said, "Didn't I say it before, the people of Wutian County in Xia Nai, worship under the Wutian Sect, but in the battle with the wicked man before, he was defeated, and he was bombarded under the cliff by that person, and he was saved by your boat." As for the conspiracy you are talking about, I can only hehe. ”
Li Changqing snorted coldly and said, "Don't lie to the old man, you have a golden pill to protect your body, it can be said that it is difficult to meet opponents in the entire Central Continent, you had better explain honestly, otherwise, don't blame the old man for being polite." ”
"Hmph, I didn't think this old guy was quite stubborn. Qin Mu's heart moved slightly, his face did not change, and he said indifferently: "Although we are not friends, we are definitely not enemies. Then, his gaze fell behind the old man in black, and he said calmly: "If I were you, I would only find a way to deal with the impending danger at this time, instead of asking about the identity of others. ”
Li Changqing's brows furrowed, he seemed to feel something, turned his head, and looked into the vast sea mist, his face suddenly changed greatly.
The moon was hazy, and the moonlight was projected through the layers of thick fog.
The sea sparkled above, the sky and the earth were silent, and the thick fog was gathering and disappearing in an instant.
On the surface of the sea, I saw a series of continuous light image footprints generally appear on the surface of the sea where the moonlight flows, one point, two points—
Before everyone could see what it was, the trail of light rushed towards the merchant ship like a drum.
It was definitely not something like a fish crossing the sea, it was more like something was running rapidly on the sea, and on the merchant ship, except for Qin Mu, the rest of the people were all shocked, and a few even screamed.
Clearly, the men were frightened by what was coming at them above the sea.
And it was also obvious from the eyes of Li Changqing and the other guards that it was obvious that they knew what the footprint-like points of light meant.
In the wind, a subtle sound passed through my ears, like a sound from hell, like a spell to lock the soul in the darkness.
The sound was faint, and it was impossible to hear the correct direction, as if countless insects were squirming and chirping from above the sea.
The old man in black hurriedly withdrew the silver whip, walked quickly to the side of the ship, and flew directly to the mast of the ship like a black streamer "whoosh!" under his feet, he stood straight in the night wind, looking at the sea in front of him from above, and then his face was shocked, his figure flashed, and he turned into a cloud of green smoke and disappeared on the mast, and in less than a second, Li Changqing appeared on the deck in front of Qin Mu like a phantom.
Then, Li Changqing said in a deep voice: "The people who come are actually undersea demons - you have to do your best to drive the boat out!
"-here, here-is-"
"Where the hell is it?" the old man in black shouted, and the sound made by using his true yuan power was like a lion's roar, directly frightening the person who asked him to his knees.
The sword-wielding guard's face turned pale, and his face was already sweating profusely, and he trembled involuntarily, presumably frightened by this sudden danger.
As soon as the old man said a word, he stepped forward and kicked him, "Hmph, useless thing, you are not worthy of being the guard of the Dongfang family!"
"Back to my lord, this place is shrouded in dense fog for dozens of miles, and it is impossible to identify the direction, and my subordinates guess that we have lost our way, and we have also stumbled into the realm of the Sea Hades. Another guard with a knife next to him said respectfully, this person was dressed in black brocade, and the knife on his waist was shining, which was very terrifying.
"That's right, we must have disturbed these krakens!" Li Changqing's expression was grim, pacing left and right.
"What Kraken, let's get out of this sea quickly, with your spiritual sense, it should be no problem to find the way—"
"What do you know!" Before Qin Mu's words fell, he heard Li Changqing roar angrily, and then he shouted with a solemn look in his eyes: "Hmph, these krakens are bloodthirsty, if you don't let them have a full meal, no matter what, you won't be able to escape from this demon sea!"
Qin Mu was taken aback, but he didn't have the slightest fear.
He had seen demon beasts, and those krakens, Qin Mu had never heard of before, and it was also excellent to see them today.
And at this moment, I only heard Li Changqing command: "Qinghu, go in and gather the guards, and let them come out with the best weapons to fight with those krakens." Immediately, he felt that those guards with knives were not very reliable, and thinking that there was Qin Mu behind him, he turned around and asked: "Your Excellency is a master of the Jindan period, and now that the enemy is current, please work together to resist the strong enemy!"
Qin Mu said: "I will definitely do my best to fight the Kraken!"
