Chapter 224: The Shark's Goal
"If you think that you have learned a little bit of fists and feet, and you have a little cultivation, you will start to be complacent-" Chitose's words were unceremoniously, "I advise you to quickly give up the wooden bell to others! This world is as strong as a cloud, I don't want to be sealed for a hundred years just after a few months, I don't have that much time!"
Yan Saburo listened honestly, and only said in a low voice after a while: "I was wrong, I'm sorry, I won't take an example." "He had always been cautious, but after a few months of practice, the feeling of power filling his whole body was so good that it made him eager to try it and forget about the dangers of the outside world.
"Wu Wu is the second. Chitose saw through his thoughts. In fact, this is also a common problem for beginners: it is too easy to be confused by the power itself, forgetting your true weight and forgetting the world as it is. "When you cultivate to the depths of the depths, you will know that the road ahead is long, and the road is long and difficult. The premise is—"
The white cat wagged his tail: "-You can live until that time!"
Yan Saburo nodded silently. Chitose had never been so vocal about him, but he didn't blame him. Does this mean that she has more sincerity and identification with him, so she will take off the disguise she has always had?
After the white cat male finished his tirade, he was about to go back to the charcoal basin to roast the fire, and when he turned around, his eyes accidentally swept under the water.
Ahh
She ran away with a puff of smoke.

The two hours agreed with the merman soon arrived. In winter, it gets dark early, and people who have gone out have already returned home.
Yan Saburo stood on the shore and waited, and the yellow crane had changed back to his original form and was with him.
The boy's complexion had regained his ruddyness, and he had changed into a suit of cashmere jacket, light and warm.
The icy lake was empty, and another cold wind howled, causing the long grass on the shore to fall frequently.
At night, it's even colder.
Yan Saburo opened his mouth and exhaled a mouthful of white steam, he suddenly looked at the wild grass in front of him, and said coldly: "Since you are here, why hide it?"
As soon as the words fell, there was a sound in the water grass, and sure enough, a figure slowly swam out.
This figure, Yan Saburo is already somewhat familiar, it is the merman who attacked him on the lake bed earlier. Although the sky was dark, the light at this time was still brighter than the dark lake, and Yan Saburo finally had a chance to see the true face of this guy.
He just finished taking a hot shower and went to the book, found out the entry of the marsh shark and read it, and then the two were compared, and sure enough, the book was not wrong. The length of the mermaid in the sea is generally more than one zhang (more than three meters), and the marsh shark is only two-thirds of it at most because of the different living environment.
Originally, it was not clear in the lake, but now when the swamp shark stands upright, Yan Saburo can easily find that its tail is long and thin, more like a snake than a fish, and can form a strong support and support for the body, so that it can move freely in the swamp with mixed water and soil and complex terrain.
As for the upper body, the difference between the marshes and their counterparts in the sea is even greater.
Yan Saburo has read some books in Yuncheng and Liupei County, which are full of beautiful descriptions of the appearance of sharks, and think that they are generally more beautiful than humans, which is even recorded in the "Secret Record of Qingyan".
Apparently the marsh shark is an exception.
When it stood in the distance, it had a delicate curve on its upper body, a thin waist and flat shoulders, and its hair flowed like seaweed, and at first glance it looked like a beauty, and when it got closer, it realized that it was a protruding eye, a pointed chin, and a body covered with dark blue scales, which did not touch the beauty at all—at least in Yan Saburo's eyes.
Yan Saburo asked him to meet by the lake, just to give up half of the home field and make it more at ease.
"Why did you arrest Huang Da?" Yan Saburo got straight to the point, "Why did you sneak attack us?"
The mermaid was still standing on the ice, cautiously observing his surroundings. Before the glass lamp appeared, its demeanor was more relaxed: "I have observed your house for a few days, and that weasel is obviously not good enough, but it can change into a human form." ”
If a little monster wants to turn into a human body, it can't be done without hundreds of years of cultivation. But three of the five weasels in the Yellow Crane family did it.
"So?"
"I want to find out why. When Yan Saburo observed the merman, the merman was also observing him, "I need this, this kind of supernatural power." ”
"Why?"
"I'm going to be human. The merman stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of Chunming City, "I want to enter the city." ”
"Lord Siya, you don't have to transform into a human to sneak into Chunming City, right?" Huang He suddenly opened his voice, "Jin Dashao in Chunming City died at your hands?"
The mermaid Siya frowned: "Who?"
"Jin Weiming, Jin Dashao. "He died in the river a few days ago with no external injuries. Some say that singing was heard on the shore. The song of the merman can confuse people to death. ”
The merman thought for a moment before saying, "I looked for that man, but I didn't kill him." ”
The credibility of these words was not high, and Yan Saburo doubted: "What are you looking for him?"
"He has the clue I want. The merman tilted his head sideways, and Yan Saburo found that its pupils were large, covering almost the entire eye socket, which was very different from humans, "Ask the answer you want, and I'll let him go." ”
How did Jin Dashao die, Yan Saburo actually didn't pay much attention, what he wanted to ask was: "What are you doing in Chunming City?"
The territory of the marsh shark is in the swamp hundreds of miles away. It can't appear in the human world openly, it can only meander all the way along the rivers and lakes, and I don't know how many long detours it has to take.
It took so much effort, why did it come about?
This time, Siya hesitated for a few moments before saying, "Have you heard of the great plague that ravages the Ximian Swamp and the Thousand Food Country?"
Yan Saburo and Huang He glanced at each other and nodded: "I've heard it, it is said that it originated from the Ximian Swamp, and the Thousand Food Country will not be a country." ”
Since the outbreak of the pandemic, the whole country of Thousand Foods has fallen, and it is as miserable as hell on earth. In fact, according to the news received by Yan Saburo, the epidemic was finally controlled, and it was slowly no longer spread on a large scale, but at this time, the Qianshiguo had collapsed across the board, prices were soaring, everyone was in danger and suspicious of each other, and the domestic aristocracy and wealthy families moved early and fled to other countries with a large amount of wealth, which made the Qianshiguo even worse.
Before the horrors of the epidemic had passed, riots and uprisings broke out in the country. Today's Thousand Food Country is a chaotic mess, and it can only rely on the surrounding countries and forces to send people and materials to it to hang its life-
If the Thousand Food Country fell overnight, those epidemic patients were wandering around, what if they ran to other countries? So everyone had to pay for it to hold on, and I heard that this time, even the Sha Sect, which had always been the most calm and the most ignorant of the world, made great efforts.
"The source of the outbreak is within the jurisdiction of my Blackwood tribe. Or rather, in our forbidden land. Siya looked at Yan Saburo and said, "Originally, there was a thing sealed there, which was also the source of this epidemic. ”
Huang He listened attentively and blurted out, "What is it?"
"The plague god. ”
