I have been adrift at sea for more than a month, and in the early hours of this day, this adrift day is finally coming to an end. In front of the ship, the shadow of the mainland loomed. The first to spot the shadow of the continent was the sailor who was in charge of the lookout from the mast. At first, he thought he was wrong, but after rubbing his eyes a few times in a row, he finally confirmed that what he saw was not a phantom.

"We're here, we're here! It's the continent! It's the Central continent!"

The sailors on the mast roared loudly, and the excitement was transmitted to everyone who heard.

"Where's it?

The sound of chaotic footsteps, mixed with the loud questions of many people. The crowd cheered and surrounded the mast.

"It's just ahead, you see. That's the continent, it's the Middle-earth continent!"

The sailors on the mast slid down the mast. He danced and pointed ahead, looking like a child who had eaten candy.

"Where's it, what's wrong? Show it to Lao Tzu!"

Boss Yang pushed away the crowd and squeezed in front of the sailor.

"Boss, you're here! look, it's right in front, look closely!"

Running out of the crowd along the road driven by Boss Yang, Shui pointed in one direction and kept shouting.

Boss Yang put his hand on the pergola and looked in the direction of the water finger. I saw a cloud and mist on the sea in the distance, and a black shadow occasionally appeared in the cloud. The shadow was so blurry that if you hadn't made it carefully, you wouldn't have found the shadow hiding behind the clouds.

Boss Yang looked at it for a while, and always felt that something was wrong. He frowned and laid the chart in his arms on the ground.

"You see, there is nothing wrong with this direction, and this route is also corrected later. Following this route, we will not see land for at least two or three days, how can it be so early now?"

Boss Yang pointed to the chart and invited a group of sailors to discuss it together.

"So, is it the Central Continent in front of you?"

A dark and thin sailor was suspicious and asked Boss Yang in a low voice.

"Yes, but it seems to be a little different from what we have recorded on the charts. ”

Boss Yang was also skeptical, but he was also sure that this was the Central Continent. Because whether it is in terms of time or speed, they can only reach the Central Continent at most at this time. It is simply impossible to cross the Central Continent and reach the southernmost South Dipper Star Continent.

"If yes, anyway, our destination has arrived. ”

Humpty Dumpty let out a sigh of relief.

"But the time is not right, where is the difference in time?"

Boss Yang was still struggling with the problem of time, and he always felt that something was wrong.

"Whatever! We're already on Middle-earth anyway. Maybe it's because of the storm that we're getting closer to Middle-earth. ”

The older sailor thought about it for a while, and carefully voiced his opinion.

"Yes, yes, yes! It makes sense! ”

The bearded sailor next to him nodded his head quickly, as if he had heard some wise saying.

"It makes sense that it makes sense,

But I always felt that something was wrong. ”

Boss Yang also felt that the older sailor's statement was reasonable, and in fact it was. But for some reason, he just felt panicked in his heart today. He usually acts decisively, but today he is extremely hesitant.

"Don't hesitate, boss, we're running out of food on our ship. Besides, there seems to be something wrong with the ship's mast, and we won't be able to return to the ship without finding a place to dock and fix it. ”

Seeing that Boss Yang hesitated, the sailor in charge of the lookout was also urging on the side.

"Then, okay! Let's act together, watch the direction and location, be careful of the reef in the fog, everyone is ready to land!"

Boss Yang put away the chart and looked at the shadow of the continent in the fog in front of him, still a little worried for no reason.

The speed of the ship slowly slowed down, and it slowly entered the mist. There was a noticeable change in the speed of the boat, which was clearly felt by the people. Gradually, news of the discovery of the Middle-earth continent spread. After months of wandering at sea, seeing that the destination was about to be reached, all of us had a sense of unreality at this moment.

"Beware of the undercurrent! Observers should pay attention to the reef, see that they are about to land, don't make a fool of themselves on this beach......"

Under the constant advice of Boss Yang, the building boat bypassed the undercurrent and avoided the reef, and finally came to the shore. The shadow of the continent finally appeared clearly in front of everyone's eyes. The shadow that people have seen is indeed true of the mainland. It's just that this is a pitch-black cliff on the mainland coast, not a shoal recorded on the map of the old Yang's sea. When Boss Yang saw this cliff, he was also a little unclear at first. But after looking at it for a while, I still sighed.

"It's really unlucky, if I'm not wrong here, it should be one of the few uninhabited islands in the Central Continent. The road was bumpy, and I guess it wasn't so smooth to get to Middle-earth. ”

Boss Yang's voice was full of anger, and the people around him could hear it. The sailors couldn't help but look at Boss Yang, and there seemed to be doubts in their eyes. It seems to be asking whether to dock or continue sailing.

"Don't look at it, it's already here, hurry up and get ready to dock and stop the boat. The ship's mast was damaged and could not withstand the wind and waves. Although there is an uninhabited island in front of you, you can still find some practical wood and food. Fix the boat as fast as possible and we get out of here as soon as possible. By the way, don't forget to tell the passengers. This is the continent of Middle-earth, but it is not where we land. Remember to leave two people to watch over the passengers on the boat and don't let them get lost. ”

Boss Yang made his decision, and his sailors hurriedly performed their duties and began to prepare for landing. After a bit of shaking, the boat finally stopped completely. Less than a few meters from the cliff, the sailors set up a pontoon ladder between the cliff and the ship.

It was midday, and several sailors packed up their tools and stepped onto the cliff. A group of passengers who don't know the reason also have to follow when they see this situation. It's just that Boss Yang said it first, and those passengers were persuaded to go back by the two sailors in charge of guarding.

It was late in the evening when several sailors returned.

The sailors chatted and laughed, and behind them dragged some suitable wood and food. Without much rest, the sailors quickly began to repair the mast. The sound of clanging chisels and the humming of sawing timber was endless. The sailors are busy, and the idle passengers are not just watching the excitement, they can help, and they can help.

And in the midst of this heat, the six people of Jiuhua Academy are a little unsociable. The two people who took the lead asked Boss Yang a few words, and then climbed the cliff and walked towards the forest in the distance. The four people behind were a little hesitant, but they still followed. Before leaving, Xu Chenglin reluctantly asked Boss Yang a few words.

The beginning and end of the matter is actually very simple, that is, Li Zhao and Ma Zhiyuan heard that they had arrived in the Central Continent, so they decided not to follow the big ship anymore. While the big ship was docking, several people left together.

As for the two of them, the reason for doing so is also very strong, which is to take this opportunity to get rid of the stalking. Why did you choose to leave in the evening, that is also particular. The evening light was dim, making it easier for the few of them to escape from the tracking, and at the same time to detect the tracking of others.

These reasons were all said by Li Zhao and Ma Zhiyuan, and they were explained for the four of them. As for why it was explained, of course, the six of them did not discuss it in advance. The four of them were caught off guard by the actions of Li Zhao and Ma Zhiyuan.

There was a good reason for that, but the four of them always felt that it was perfunctory. When asked why they hadn't discussed it in advance, the duo replied that it was for confidentiality. In order to keep it secret, some of the actions were concealed from the four people. This is both plausible and unreasonable. In short, the occurrence of this small incident slashed the relationship between the six people.

Unbeknownst to them, just as they were leaving, there was a silent absence of a sailor on board. The tracking that I wanted to get rid of was actually not thrown off. The hanging boot ghost is still wrapped around his feet, and his tail is still hidden behind him.

Looking at the two groups of people who left, the elegant monk who was deep in the sky frowned. The black cliff in front of him, he couldn't see the depth of it. Faintly, a familiar feeling arose in his mind. He subconsciously released his divine sense to investigate, but to his surprise, his divine sense was gone like a mud cow entering the sea. The elegant monk was startled, and concentrated and released a wave of divine consciousness. This time, his consciousness finally had a feedback, and a gentle rebound force bounced his consciousness back directly. This force was very familiar, and he found that it was very similar to the defensive formation of Jiuhua Academy. The elegant monk was puzzled for a moment, and then his eyes widened. A legend from a thousand years ago popped into his mind.

"Creation! It's a pity that the little ones can only be let in. I hope they don't be careless, the greater the creation, the greater the danger, not to mention the ...... The Fengyuan Secret Realm is here, the entrance of the sea area is coming again, and it has appeared here inexplicably, what is the connection between all this......"

Unable to figure it out for a moment, the elegant monk shook his head and became invisible again. It wasn't long before he unleashed another wave of divine consciousness and swept towards the black cliff.

Before you know it, night has arrived. A bright moon slowly rises above the sea until it dispels all the dark clouds in the sky. Tonight was a clean night, and the moonlight shrouded the sea like a veil. After a busy day, the building boat was quiet at night. Scattered lights could be seen flickering, and it was the sailors of the night watch who were on routine patrol. There is no wind or waves on the sea, and the boat is moored smoothly, and tonight seems to be a quiet night suitable for a peaceful sleep.

However, this was not the case, and not far from the cliff opposite the ship, the sound of rustling was particularly prominent in this quiet night. The sound seemed to be coming from underground, as if something was about to crawl out of the ground. Yes, it is true that something crawled out of the ground. A transparent and somewhat illusory palm leaned out of the ground tremblingly.

Amazingly, there was no damage to the ground, as if the palm had grown out of thin air. Then, a similar palm stretched out. The two palms groped around, and after a period of laborious groping, the two palms poked out a lot. As the palms of the two hands poked out more and more, a pair of transparent arms were exposed.

The arm waved for a while, and a transparent head with no face also came out. Then the neck, upper body, legs, and feet, in turn. A complete transparent humanoid, all of which emerged from the ground.

The first transparent person appeared, and many more transparent people came out of the ground one after another. These transparent people bowed to the bright moon in the sky a few times, and then looked up at the sky and made a silent shout. They glanced in the direction of the boat, and then, as if losing interest, turned and walked together towards the forest behind the cliff. Or that can't be called walking, it's more appropriate to call it floating.

The appearance of transparent people, no one notices on the ship. As for the six people who left, of course, they were even more unlikely to know. At this time, Xu Chenglin and the other six people were attracted by another strange scene.

The six of them were all Qi Condensing Cultivators, walking in the Night Forest, and they were not affected much. The moment the bright moon rose, a strange scene appeared in the forest. The moment the moonlight sprinkles through the forest, the whole forest seems to come to life. The ice-blue light dots lit up on the trees, twinkling and shining like stars in the sky, and they were extremely beautiful. The ice-blue dots of light flickered in a very regular manner, forming a bright passage that led into the distance.

Where does this passage lead? Six people, no one knows. If it were a normal practice, with the prudence of the practitioners, they would definitely not be tempted at will. Today, however, the situation is different, and the six of them appear to be of one mind, but in fact they are of two minds.

Seeing the cautious hesitation of Xu Chenglin, Gongsun Jing and the others, the duo of Li and Ma looked heroic and fearless, and walked down the light path without hesitation. Out of helplessness, the four of them had no choice but to go down together. An unknown path of light flickering, six people walking with two hearts. On this quiet night, the atmosphere is a little eerie.

"I always felt something odd. ”

Yun Yang spoke quietly, but the voice still reached clearly in the ears of everyone present.

"Don't

Say, I think it's a little weird too!"

Su Yunhe's voice was also very low, but the same few people could hear it clearly.

"It's so quiet here!"

Gongsun Jing had no scruples and said it directly in the usual volume.

"It's in the forest, but there is not the slightest song of insects and birds at night. No matter how big or small our voices are, they can't be heard around us. Also, my mind couldn't see clearly. In the Divine Consciousness, the surrounding ten zhang area was completely foggy. ”

Xu Chenglin, who had not spoken, also told his discovery at this time.

With a contemptuous smile at Xu Chenglin, Li Zhao shook his head amusedly.

"Young people are young people, and it's worth making a fuss about the fact that divine consciousness doesn't work. ”

seized the opportunity to verbally hit Xu Chenglin, and Li Zhao looked quite proud.

Xu Chenglin glanced at Li Zhao, and then he was speechless. It's not worth the fuss, I believe those present know it in their hearts. He Xu Chenglin doesn't want to waste more words with such people, and it is good that people who don't like to deal with him don't exist.

"Senior Brother Xu said it very clearly, I want to ......"

Gongsun Jing kindly tried to resolve the embarrassment, but her words were interrupted by Yun Yang's exclamation.

"Look ahead!"

Yun Yang exclaimed, instantly attracting the attention of the five people.

The crowd looked at him suspiciously, following his fingers and looking ahead. I saw that the end of the light road was brightly lit, and it seemed to be a prosperous town. Obviously, there was still a forest in front of him just now, how could a small town appear. Obviously saying that this is an uninhabited island, how can there be a small town?
