There are still a few days to go to sea, and the various families have put their boats out for maintenance. There are also shops selling boats on the street. Ling Xi and the two husbands looked around, and felt that it was not as good as the mortal dust enchantment ship that they had built. Even the Lan family's wooden boat is very old, and such a small boat will be unable to resist if it encounters demons.

"Xi'er, let's build our own ship, after using it, we can also decompose it and make food for the fish in the sea. The spirit man looked at the boats and said helplessly.

"Husband Lingren, then it can only be built when it reaches the seaside, and it is too late to build it. Why don't we renovate these wooden boats? ”

"Xi'er, how to renovate, this ship is already very dilapidated, and the wood is already bad. The prince said worriedly.

"Little aunt, when there are no demons, we can summon big fish in the sea, turtles or something, and small boats are auxiliary. The little prince said without worry.

"Little Prince, when we came here, many creatures in the sea were also killed by demons, and the big fish there no longer dared to come out. So the boat was the only way we connected to the island. Ling Xi said with a heavy heart.

"How so? There's no news from the edge of the sea. Even the people who went to inspect this time didn't find anything unusual, and the lottery had been done, just waiting for the head of the family to pass. ”

"Little Prince, how do you draw lots here?"

"Uncle Lingren, a big island is a family, and a small island can have several families in one family. Families that are too small can also act together. Our Lan family travels to the largest and farthest islands every year. There is no need to draw lots. The size of the islands varies from year to year, with some sinking into the water and others growing taller. So they all went over to inspect and plan in advance. As long as the patrol does not find out, we can safely go to sea to experience. ”

"Little Prince, can I take a look at the people who have come back from the inspection?" Ling Xi asked as he looked in the direction where the special elders in the palace lived.

"Little aunt, this is not allowed, they are all people with special skills, and they are all very old. Year after year, the islands they visited were real. It's just that fewer and fewer people have come back from training in recent years. ”

"Little Prince, what will happen if these patrolling people are demonized?" Ling Xi asked with a light smile.

"Little aunt, it's terrible like that!"

"Xi'er, what do you see?"

"Demonic energy, black demonic energy. Ling Xi said and took out a Bright Eye Pill for the little prince to take, and pointed in the direction of the special elder's residence. It was the first time for the little prince to take the pill, and before the excitement in his heart had passed, he saw that the special elders lived, wisps of black gas, hovering in midair,

"Little aunt, I really saw it, are those black gases demonic gases?"

"Yes, little prince, what you are taking is the Bright-Eyed Pill, which can last for a long time and you can see things that ordinary people can't see. That's the demonic energy, look at the demonic energy over there has been hovering for a long time. It shows that the demonic energy in that place has reached a level close to saturation. Although it is not yet possible to determine whether those who patrol have taken refuge in the demons or have been used by the demons, they already have a heavy demon poison in their bodies. ”

"Little aunt, then we can sneak over at night, I know where a secret passage leads. ”

At night, when the whole palace was quiet and everyone was asleep, Ling Xi took the little prince, as well as the two husbands of Lingren and the prince, through the secret passage, to approach the courtyard where the special elders lived.

It's the same size as all yards, except it's far away from everyone, and a hill-like mound at the back of the yard smells sour, attracting a lot of flying and crawling insects.

"Hey, this mound didn't exist before? I remember that the elders here are all highly respected and powerful in the family, and they have quirks and can't look dirty, and this place is very far away from other courtyards, one of the reasons is that these special elders like to be quiet and tidy, how can they allow them to live on the edge of such a taste. The little prince said suspiciously.

"Xi'er, for the husband to take a look, the mound should be piled up with food, a lot of it is already rotten and spoiled. While the prince was talking, the back door of the courtyard opened, and a man carrying a basket poured something on the mound. As soon as Ling Xi waved his hand, the subordinate was frozen.

A few people looked through the moonlight, and it turned out that all kinds of cooked food, rice, dry food, and mixed dishes were dumped.

"Oh my God, don't they all have to eat? These are the highest standards of food in the royal kitchen of the palace. Little aunt, are they really demonized? ”

"Little Prince, these foods have been able to turn into small mounds, which means that they have been like this for a long time. Ling Xi opened the Heavenly Eye and looked at the subordinate who was standing there and couldn't move.

"Why haven't you come back, close the door quickly!" A strange cry came from the courtyard, and black gas mixed in the night sky.

Ling Xi waved his hand again, and the man with the basket slowly turned around and left. The back door was also closed.

"It's getting sluggish, and if it weren't for the stupidity of you, I would have eaten you a long time ago. Get out!" came a scolding voice from the door.

"Little aunt, the people here are really demonized, the elder who spoke is the inspection elder, and he is also in charge of drawing lots, no wonder the food here is piled up into a mountain, and they don't have to eat anymore. Little aunt, beat them all to death. ”

"Little prince, now is not the time to kill them, you just said that fewer and fewer people have come back after going out to train over the years, that is, the demons have calculated humans a long time ago. They lured humans to the island and killed them, which was vicious. It's equivalent to human beings being eaten every year. You wait, Princess Ben goes and catches a trial. Ling Xi said as he flew over the high wall.

When I came to the courtyard, the demonic aura here seemed to be shielded by something, and there was a dense demonic aura below, only the wisps slowly seeped out. Ling Xi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the people in this courtyard were about to stop being human, and they would become human demons in a short time.

She recited the incantation, and quickly grabbed an elder who was still meditating and cultivating out of the courtyard. In the dark night, Ling Xi was like a night elf carrying an elder wrapped in an enchantment and landed outside, and the elder was still in a meditative posture, his mouth was still half open, as if he was practicing some mantra.

"Mother, this is the Sleep Pill, he can tell the truth whatever you want. The soul baby sent a pill into Ling Xi's hand, and Ling Xi's voice also came from Ling Xi's consciousness. As soon as Ling Xi's fingers flicked, the pill flew into the elder's mouth. Then she withdrew the barrier, and the elder yawned tiredly. looked at Ling Xi and a few people in confusion. Suddenly knelt down in panic.

"Demon King, we have drawn a map of the distribution of the islands this time according to your instructions, and we promise to skip your islands, in addition, we have also asked the demons to hide on the islands, and we are waiting for the humans here to send them to death. ”

"What did you all do?" Ling Xi asked in a hoarse voice.

"The words of the Demon King are the same as in previous years, don't you believe us?"

"It's been too long for you to return to human society, who knows if you will be assimilated by popularity, be careful to make the Ten Thousand Year Ship This will not be wrong, you still tell me what you did in previous years. ”

"Demon King, this is impossible, we have not eaten human food for many years, and the people in the courtyard have been eaten by us. Except for the newcomers and stupid ones, we have all done this in previous years......" The confused elder said, and Ling Xi's hearts were shocked when he heard this, and the little prince was even more frightened and tightly grabbed Ling Xi's clothes.

They heard that it was terrible, and it turned out that the demons had been deploying these plots to calculate humanity for a long time. These Patrol Elders had also been poisoned by demons many years ago, and now they were about to cultivate into demons. The treasures collected by humans are deliberately exposed by demons during the annual island training, and more humans used to be sent to death. The ultimate goal of demons is to exterminate the human race.

"To test your loyalty and demonization, tell us where you remember. Ling Xi asked.

"Yes, ten years ago your island was in the southeast corner, and then it moved to the south... This year your location is next to the largest island, but you are disguised to look like a dead fish from a distance. Demon King, I'm not wrong, isn't it until we all cultivate to become demons, then we can eat the humans in the royal city casually. ”

"Daring, are these questions you can ask, this is a secret of the demon world, you just have to do what we say. ”

"Demon King, that's not what you said before. ”

", this demon king is in a bad mood today. Ling Xi scolded in a hoarse voice, and with a wave of his hand, he sent the stunned elder back to the courtyard.

"Little aunt, it's terrible. It is said that human beings are the smartest and wisest, why are they still calculated by demons. ”

"Little Prince, that's where humans have misused their wisdom and wisdom. For example, this time we tell the demon plan to other families, will they believe it?" Ling Xi asked with a smile.

"No, those families won't believe it, even if the number of people who come back alive every year is gradually decreasing, they will only take our admonition as a treasure talk. ”

"Yes, that's the selfishness of human beings. ”

"Little aunt, what should I do then?"

"No way, it's a catastrophe. Therefore, it is imperative to transform our Lan family's boat, we set off at the same time as them, we must reach the demon's lair as quickly as possible, and only by controlling the demon king there can we rescue all the experienced humans. Reduce casualties a little. ”

"Then what happened to the demonized elders here?"

"Little Prince, now is not the time to destroy them, when we kill the Demon King, we will come back to clean them up. Lord, let's shield this place first. The spirit man looked at the prince and said.

"Melt these elixir powders into your plant barriers, as this will slow down their demonization. "Ling Xi turned a lot of pills into powder and handed them over to the two husbands. Soon, a barrier surrounded the courtyard. The wisps of demonic energy are invisible. By this time it was already dawn.
