() Lu Hailong lowered his head and pondered, recalling the record of crocodile monsters in "Ancient and Modern Strange Chronicles". Suddenly, a terrible name flashed in his mind: "Ancient God Crocodile". There are only a few words about this kind of demon crocodile in the book, and even the description of the appearance of the demon crocodile is vague, only that it is a very powerful demon beast, which has appeared in people's field of vision several times with the tide of the sea, and people even worship the mysterious demon crocodile as the god of the sea, so that it has the majestic name of "ancient god crocodile".

"If you guessed correctly, the demon beast at the exit of Kan Palace should be the 'Ancient God Crocodile'. Since we don't know much about this monster, we don't have to dwell too much on it. Kan Palace corresponds to Humen, the attribute is in the auspicious, it should be easy to see the exit, and our purpose is to save our lives. Lu Hailong said.

"Humen, Nakayoshi...... Is it a place where you can rest?" Miao Haoshang asked, "The Yunzhong Covered Bridge that opens the door is to enjoy the scenery all the way, is it almost the same as closing the door?"

"Xiu, which means rest, relaxed. I reckon there should be no danger except for the last exit, which is guarded by monsters. Lu Hailong smiled.

"That's good. Zhongjimen, if there is still danger, I can't say it. Miao Haoshang relaxed.

Before they reached the entrance of the bridge, a cool breeze suddenly blew in their faces, which not only blew away the clouds and mist on the bridge, but also brought a sense of peace to everyone. After the clouds cleared, everyone saw the scene in the distance.

What a wonderful view! Under the clear sky, there is a deep blue sea, and the pleasant sea breeze blows, and the sound of waves faintly rings in the ears. In the distance, the sea and sky line, and the golden sand beach nearby, the sea waves ripple, reflecting a little sunshine. Waves lap against the endless beach. The sound of the tide is as pleasant as heaven. The sky is high and the clouds are light, setting off a piece of peace.

Everyone walked off the long bridge in surprise and joy, such a beautiful scenery is indeed unforgettable, relaxed, and happy, only the blue word "Kan Palace" on the stone tablet at the entrance of the bridge seems to remind them that they are still in the Shuzang Palace.

Liu Yinyin simply took off her shoes and socks and walked barefoot on the golden sand. If the sand of the Rikyu Desert is hot and rough, then the sand of Kangu Beach is cool and delicate, and the soft touch is wonderful, and her face has a bright smile like a child's.

There is a wooden boat stranded on the seashore, and the shape is very beautiful.

Looking to the left and right, the curved beach stretches to the horizon and disappears into a faint white mist.

"Looks like we're going to take this boat. Lu Hailong said.

Jiang Huangu and Miao Haoshang pushed the wooden boat into the water, and everyone jumped on it one after another. Although the wooden boat was not large, it was more than enough to carry a few of them.

After entering the water, the boat slowly drifts towards the deep sea with the undulating waves.

"This ship has neither oars nor sails, how can it move against the waves?" Jiang Huangu was puzzled.

Miao Haoshang sat down nonchalantly: "Whatever, I can't control the direction anyway, so I'll let it float." ”

"Look!" Liu Yinyin suddenly pointed to the water not far away.

Looking in the direction, on the sea surface more than ten zhang away from the side of the ship, several rows of reefs are exposed, the height is similar, and the arrangement is neat, as if it is the word "Hugh Gate".

Miao Haoshang laughed: "This sign is quite special. ”

After a while, everyone began to meditate one after another, and the sea was endless, and I didn't know when I would drift to the other side.

Time passed in silence, and night slowly fell. The sky is full of bright stars, and the moon is bright and flawless. The wooden boat has been gently rising and falling with the waves, and there is no reference around, and it is not known whether the boat is still moving.

Miao Haoshang yawned: "I haven't slept for a long time, but I actually feel sleepy." As soon as this boat goes up and down, it's really sleepy. ”

Jiang Huangu opened his eyes and quipped: "Then you go into the water and push the boat, then you won't be sleepy." ”

Miao Haoshang said, "Good idea! The boat is really anxious to slow down, let me speed it up." After saying that, he jumped into the sea with a "poof", and the cool sea water immediately drove away his sleepiness. He got out of the sea, wiped the water off his face, and laughed heartily: "Haha, comfortable!" He pushed the hull with both hands and slapped the water with both feet. But after a while, he jumped back into the boat and lay down.

"Why, you ran out of strength so soon?" asked Liu Yinyin.

"Why, it's useless to push the boat! The boat seemed to be fixed in the water, and as soon as I exerted my strength, I felt a force coming back from the hull, and the harder I tried, the greater the counterforce, and it was really in vain. ”

"Stuck in the water, isn't the boat moving?" Liu Yinyin was puzzled.

Miao Haoshang thought about it and replied with great certainty: "No, the ship is still moving." When I jumped into the water, the boat was clearly drifting forward. ”

"It must have been deliberately arranged like this by the Sword Immortal. Jiang Huan Gu said.

"Forget it, continue to meditate, and let the boat drift slowly on its own. Miao Haoshang sat up and said.

In the calm night, the wooden boat slowly drifted into the distance.

A whole day passed, and the wooden boat still floated slowly in the vast sea, and as far as the eye could see, there was nothing to see but the sea.

"Brother Lu, the realm is suppressed in Mahayana, and no matter how much meditation you can't improve your cultivation, you can simply sleep beautifully after your spiritual power is recovered. Isn't this called Hughmen? We need to rest to be worthy of this place. Pei Yuan said lazily, "However, the three of them can still continue to cultivate." The "they" he spoke of were the three Mahayana people of Miao Haoshang, Jiang Huangu and Liu Yinyin.

Lu Hailong smiled "hehe": "Yes." The night is good, the moon is full of stars, it is good to enjoy it, if there is good food and wine, it is better to drink. ”

"How long will it take for this sea to drift so slowly?

There are no birds in the sky, no fish in the water, and some are too quiet. Huangfu Yu said.

Helian Xin suddenly exclaimed: "Hey, could it be that we made a mistake? Maybe the exit of the Kan Palace is at the bottom of the sea!"

Lu Hailong said: "It shouldn't be, otherwise there won't be a boat for us to ride." But just in case, I'd better go down and take a look. He jumped into the sea.

One hour, two hours...... Until the sky was dark, Lu Hailong did not surface for a long time.

"Old Lu, he won't encounter any danger, right?" Jiang Huangu stood up and looked at the dark blue water, a little worried.

"Isn't this Nakayoshimon? There shouldn't be any danger. Besides, with his strength, he can escape even if there is danger. Bei Yuan closed his mind.

"No, I'm not worried, I'm going down to find it. When Jiang Huangu was just about to enter the water, Huangfu Yu, who had been looking at it since just now, said: "No need, he's back!"

Jiang Huangu looked back, and sure enough, Lu Hailong was swimming towards the wooden boat from a very far away.

After jumping on the boat, Lu Hailong steamed the water on his body with his spiritual power, and said to everyone: "This sea is so deep!"

"Why, you didn't dive to the bottom of the sea?" asked Bei Yuanshu in surprise.

"Nope. Lu Hailong shook his head and said: "I have been diving for more than an hour without seeing the bottom of the sea, and when I got to the depths, the water was pitch black, and I couldn't see anything at all, so I floated up, I didn't expect you to float so far." ”

Jiang Huangu opened his mouth wide and said in surprise: "I haven't seen the bottom for so long......?

"It doesn't matter how deep the sea is, at least you can be sure that the exit is not on the bottom of the sea. The word "rest" in "Hugh Gate" actually has the meaning of "rest", all things stop growing and developing, so there are no birds in the sky and no fish in the sea. Let's wait patiently, we will always drift to the end. Lu Hailong said.

But when he said this, Lu Hailong never thought that the day of "drifting to the end" would make them wait so long.

The sun and moon rise in the east and set in the west every day, the cycle of morning, dusk, noon and evening is non-stop, alternating between warm and hot, cold and cold, and the four seasons change in spring, summer, autumn and winter...... Five years! The wooden boat floated on the sea for five years, and the crowd "drifted to the end."

In the past five years, everyone has doubted more than once whether the exit is at the bottom of the sea, but this sea is simply an endless abyss, and everyone does not know how many times they have dived deeply, but they have not been able to reach the bottom of the sea. Over time, everyone gave up the idea of "exiting at the bottom of the sea".

They also thought that the boat was drifting too slowly, and decided to abandon the boat and swim forward, but no matter how fast everyone swam, the wooden boat always floated not far behind them.

Helpless, everyone had to wait day after day, year after year. In the early morning of one day five years later, when Lu Hailong was doing his daily routine of looking into the distance, he finally found a vague black shadow on the horizon.

"Look!

"What?" and "Where?" the companions immediately stood up with joy when they heard this.

"This ...... I can't see clearly!" Miao Haoshang narrowed his eyes slightly, but he still only saw vague black spots.

Bei Yuan closed his voice: "That's right, it should be land." ”

"Hey, don't care what it is, it's been five years, it's been five years, and something different has finally appeared on this sea that I have long been tired of seeing!" Jiang Huangu was very excited.

As the boat drifted closer and closer, the small black dots on the horizon became longer and longer, and everyone finally saw clearly that it was a small island! The shore of the island was also a sandy beach, and not far from the beach was a lush dense forest. The dense forest seems to be spread over a wide area, covering almost all parts of the island. For people who are accustomed to seeing sky blue and tired of seeing sea blue, this green color is so gratifying!

The boat drifted leisurely towards the shore, and before it could hit the beach, everyone couldn't wait to get off the boat. How difficult these five years have been for them! If they were cultivating outside, the five years would have passed quickly, but they were in the Shuzang Palace, and they were always thinking about the peerless immortal sword and worrying about saving their lives, and the meditation of the four masters of the Tribulation Realm was useless, it could be said that they were bored, and now they finally survived to the end.

Wading across the beach, the group came to the front of the dense forest. Next to a large tree, a section of dead wood abruptly stretched horizontally. On the side of the dead wood is written the word "Canopy Island" in ink.

The star corresponding to the Kangong Humen is the "canopy star". After seeing these three words, Lu Hailong told his companions: "Everyone, cheer up, this island is the end of the Kan Palace." The view in the dense forest is blocked, and remember to beware of the demon crocodile. ”

Everyone answered and entered the dense forest.

The vegetation in the dense forest is extremely dense, the distance between the trees is very narrow, the canopies are connected, the dazzling vines are tangled and coiled between the branches, and the ground is covered with moss, and the ground is wet everywhere.

In such an environment, it was impossible to walk fast at all, Lu Hailong was at the forefront, while using the fairy sword to break a path, while carefully observing the surrounding situation.

Canopy Island is very small, so the dense forest is not large. After walking for about half an hour, they came to the center of the dense forest. As he walked, Lu Hailong suddenly stopped, raised his hand to signal everyone to stop, and turned back to make a silent movement. The crowd looked forward, but saw nothing.

Seeing everyone's puzzled eyes, Lu Hailong pointed to the side. Through the gap between the two big trees, everyone finally discovered that on the ground about ten feet away, there was a giant crocodile lying on its stomach!

The giant crocodile's skin was brown, and if you didn't look closely, it looked like a large piece of dead wood. Only the upper body of the crocodile can be seen through the narrow cracks in the trees, and it is estimated that the whole is at least three feet long. The slightly open mouth alone is a foot long! The crocodile's mouth moved slightly up and down with its breathing, and its eyes were closed, as if it was sleeping. From such a distance, its heavy exhalation could be faintly heard

Sound.

"The Ancient Divine Crocodile ......," Lu Hailong whispered, "Since the demon crocodile is sleeping, it is better not to alarm it." We crept over to find out where the exit was. ”

Everyone walked lightly towards the demon crocodile, trying not to make any noise.

Suddenly, there was a "snap" sound, and it turned out that Miao Haoshang's fairy sword was too long, and he accidentally hit a stone. Lu Hailong "groaned" in his heart, staring at the big mouth of the demon crocodile.

The mouth of the demon crocodile suddenly closed, Lu Hailong secretly said that it was not good, and just wanted to draw out the fairy sword, but Jiang Huangu held his hand down. Jiang Huangu shook his head lightly at him, and snorted in the direction of the demon crocodile.

"Haw, haw", the demon crocodile let out two loud lip smacks, his eyes didn't open at all, and he fell asleep again after moving his position slightly.

Jiang Huangu turned around and glared at Miao Haoshang fiercely, Miao Haoshang smiled embarrassedly, he had already held the fairy sword in his hand.

There was a false alarm, and everyone continued to quietly approach the demon crocodile. Beyond the trees that blocked their view, they finally got a good eye on the crocodile.

It's about five zhang long from beginning to end, not including that frighteningly long mouth. It was covered with a thick layer of scales, like armor. There are also spikes on the scales of the tail, and two large bone spurs at the end of the tail. The crocodile's mouth was full of sharp teeth, and there were two rows of them. Thick limbs, a round back and waist, a monster alive!

"Oh my God......" Liu Yinyin gasped in shock.

Lu Hailong was surprised, but he was more concerned about an inconspicuous cave behind the ancient god crocodile, the demon crocodile was lying in a deep pit, and the cave was on the pit wall behind the tail of the demon crocodile.

Lu Hailong pointed to the cave: "That should be the exit!"

Bei Yuanshu was suspicious and said, "I think it's more like a demon crocodile's nest...... If you go in and find that it's not an exit, it's miserable to be stuck inside!"

Lu Hailong said with a smile: "What the demon crocodile is guarding must be the exit." If it's its nest, why should it sleep outside?"

Bei Yuanguan touched his head: "That's what I said...... But the crocodile is stuck in the hole, and we'll have to find a way to get in. ”

Lu Hailong thought for a moment: "This is easy. You can use the strategy of 'adjusting the tiger away from the mountain', but you have to trouble Brother Bei, use your "One Qi and Three Yuan" body method. ”

Bei Yuanshu nodded: "No problem." When you join your team, you have to do something. You hide first, and I'll trick the crocodile away. ”

Lu Hailong looked up, jumped lightly, and quietly jumped onto a branch. The others also went up to the tree one after another, leaving only Bei Yuanguan alone on the ground.

Bei Yuanguan first quietly walked in the other direction for a distance, in order to leave more time for everyone after luring away the demon crocodile. After looking at the way out, he pulled out his fairy sword and yelled at the demon crocodile: "You brute, get up for me!"

The ancient god crocodile stood up with a "whew", and the yellow crocodile eyes stared coldly at the outrageous guy in front of him, of course, it was impossible for it to understand. The height of the demon crocodile after standing up is two zhang high, and Bei Yuan's closed body is less than eight feet long, in the eyes of the demon crocodile, he is a little bit.

Seeing that the demon crocodile didn't move his body, Bei Yuanshu scolded again: "You stupid crocodile, what are you doing blocking the entrance of the cave? Look at your stupid look, it's just stupid! Do you think it's great to grow and grow?"

Several girls on the tree pursed their lips and snickered, and Lu Hailong said: "Brother Bei, no matter how ugly you scold, it can't understand it, just go up and tease it, and let it chase you away." ”

Bei Yuanshu laughed: "If you scold, you have to scold yourself! Stupid crocodile, do you want to fight with me? Look at the move!" he waved his fairy sword and rushed forward.

The Eternal Divine Crocodile never closed Bei Yuan's eyes, it just felt that this little thing in front of it was so noisy and annoying. Seeing Bei Yuanshu rushing over, the demon crocodile finally moved, but it was just moving in place. It turned sideways and flicked its tail with two large bone spurs and a small thorn at Bei Yuanshu.

The tail of the demon crocodile was too long, Bei Yuanguan could only jump up and flash, just landed, the tail swung back again, he jumped again, and the long bone spur "banged" into the pit wall, and then "brushed" and pulled out. This time it is rooted in a boulder on the wall of the pit, a big hole was pierced, the boulder was full of cracks, and after a "click" cracking sound, the edge of the pit actually collapsed a large section, so amazing!

The tail of the demon crocodile did not stop, and after pulling out the pit wall, it slashed at Bei Yuanshu, who immediately used the "One Qi Sanyuan" technique to escape. The demon crocodile was surprised that he was able to distinguish the other two figures, but he didn't catch up. What is laughable is that after opening its big mouth and yawning, it actually fell down and began to sleep!

Bei Yuanguan ran a few steps and found that the demon crocodile did not catch up, so he turned back again. This time he stopped scolding, and directly swung his sword and slashed at the mouth of the demon crocodile. The demon crocodile seemed to have expected it, suddenly opened its eyes and jumped forward, opened its big mouth to show its sharp teeth, and bit at Bei Yuanshu.

Bei Yuanshu was startled, relying on the quick reaction practiced by the thief, and once again performed the "One Qi Sanyuan" body technique, the figure on the far right was the real body, the figure on the left hit the pit wall, and the figure in the middle rushed straight into the mouth of the demon crocodile.

The demon crocodile closed its teeth and found that it had bitten into the air, but Bei Yuanguan stood not far away unharmed. It couldn't help but get a little angry, stood up again, "snorted" in its throat, squatted slightly, flicked its tail lightly, and set up an attack posture.

"That's it!" Bei Yuanshu immediately fled. He thought about it just now, maybe it was the body method of "One Qi and Three Yuan" that made the demon crocodile confused, and he didn't know which one to chase, so he ignored him. Therefore, this time he did not use "One Qi Sanyuan", and the speed was slightly slower.

After escaping for a distance, Bei Yuan closed his eyes and looked back, the demon crocodile was not fooled, and closed his eyes again and lay down!
