Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Kraken
As the saying goes, rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, rely on the sea to eat the sea, Ninghai County is surrounded by the sea on three sides, there are many ports, there are rich fishery resources, many local people are engaged in the fishing industry, there are many foreign merchants who come thousands of miles to buy local specialties, take sea boats, and sell the goods to all parts of the country.
Of course, in addition to these merchant ships full of goods, there are also many passenger ships carrying people, and the Ninghai is one of them.
Ninghai is a large sea ship with a length of more than 30 zhang and a width of more than 20 zhang, with a draft of more than 10 meters, a total of five layers, and can carry 1,000 people at one time.
In a narrow cabin on the second floor of the Ninghai, the window was wide open, and the situation in the cabin could be vaguely seen, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy was sitting cross-legged on the bed, one hand tightly grasping the wooden board under him, and there was no trace of blood on his face, the young man was Wang Changsheng.
Wang Changsheng had also taken a boat in Qingzhou before, but it was all flat and stable, with almost no ups and downs, and he mistakenly thought that the same was true for sea ships, but it didn't take long for him to regret it.
This is a boat! This is simply a human life, and the boat has never been stable, and it keeps shaking, so that he can't eat, and he quickly vomits after eating.
Of course, these bitter kings did not eat in vain, after more than a month of sailing, the Ninghai has passed through several states and counties, according to the crew on the ship, there are still seven or eight days to reach Jianzhou, which makes him a little excited.
Suddenly, the room suddenly tilted to the right, and Wang Changsheng almost fell.
Before Wang Changsheng could sit down, the room suddenly tilted to the left, and Wang Changsheng accidentally hit his head on the wooden board.
"Hiss," Wang Changsheng didn't care about the pain in his head, he only felt a burst of nausea, opened his mouth and spit out what he had just eaten at noon, and the air was suddenly filled with a fishy smell, mixed with a faint fishy sea breeze, Wang Changsheng almost vomited again.
Seeing this, Wang Changsheng smiled bitterly and pulled a ring located at the head of the bed.
It didn't take long for a knock to sound outside the door, and a flattering voice followed: "Guest officer, what do you command?" ”
Wang Changsheng wiped his mouth, got out of bed and opened the hatch, and a middle-aged man with a smiling face appeared in front of him.
"Old rule, clean up the room, I'll be back in half an hour," Wang Changsheng commanded, took out a piece of broken silver from his arms, and threw it to the middle-aged man.
"Okay, I'll clean it up for you, and I guarantee that there is no smell," the smile on the middle-aged man's face deepened a little after receiving the silver.
Hearing this, Wang Changsheng nodded and walked out of the room.
In the past month or so, he had forgotten how many times he had asked this crew member to help him clean his room, at first, this crew member was a little unhappy, but when Wang Changsheng threw him a piece of broken silver, this crew member changed his attitude, and Wang Changsheng also saw the snobbery of mortals.
However, worldly gold and silver mean nothing to Wang Changsheng, and he will not feel distressed no matter how much he spends.
Thinking like this in his heart, Wang Changsheng had already come to the deck.
There were many people on the deck, in addition to the crew who controlled the Ninghai, there were also many gorgeously dressed dignitaries, after all, the fare of five hundred taels was not something that anyone could afford.
Among these people, there was a group of people who caught Wang Changsheng's attention.
A graceful palace girl stood on the left side of the deck, looking at the vast sea, looking a little excited, beside it, there were five or six tall guards, looking at the people around with a vigilant face, led by a black-faced man, exuding a faint evil aura on his body, which made people dare not approach.
I don't know why, seeing these five or six guards, Wang Changsheng's heart was vaguely uneasy, this situation can only be like this when he meets a foundation building monk.
The black-faced man seemed to notice something, and turned his head to look at Wang Changsheng.
Wang Changsheng met the gaze of the black-faced man, and his heart suddenly jumped, as if he was being targeted by something terrible, his face changed, and he hurriedly looked away.
The black-faced man snorted lightly, glanced Wang Changsheng up and down, and then withdrew his gaze.
Recalling the experience just now, Wang Changsheng still had palpitations, he was sure that this group of people were also immortal cultivators, at least foundation building monks, thinking about five or six foundation building monks sitting in the same boat with him, Wang Changsheng was very uneasy in his heart.
The Kening Sea had just docked at a pier two days ago, and now it was heading towards Jianzhou, it was impossible for him to get off the ship even if he wanted to, as for leaving with a flying magic weapon, it is estimated that as soon as he took out the flying magic weapon, these foundation building monks would immediately destroy him, rather than this, it is better to stay on the ship honestly, thinking that they would not attack him for no reason, otherwise he would not have lived to this day.
Thinking of this, Wang Changsheng's heart was a little relieved, and he walked towards the right side of the deck, enjoying the scenery of the sea.
At this time, the Ninghai was in the depths of the sea, and there was no end in sight, and from time to time flocks of seabirds flew overhead.
At this moment, only to hear the sound of "boom", the Ninghai swayed left and right, Wang Changsheng did not stand firmly, and fell directly on the board.
"Wow! What is this, why is it so big. ”
"Oh no, this is the Kraken, run. ”
A commotion came from the left side of the deck.
When Wang Changsheng heard this, he subconsciously turned his head to take a look, and when he saw what it was, he couldn't help but gasp.
I saw a huge monster appear a hundred meters to the left of the Ninghai, this monster has a bare head, with more than a dozen long tentacles, two eyes the size of a skull, and a mouth the size of a house, from the appearance, it looks like an octopus, but it doesn't look like an octopus, how can there be such a big octopus!
"Is this the Kraken?" Looking at the octopus monster in front of him, which was dozens of times the size of the Ninghai, Wang Changsheng muttered to himself, his eyes full of shock.
He originally thought that the Kraken was also the demon beast in the sea, not much different from the demon beast on land, who would have thought, how could this Kraken be so big! It was simply beyond Wang Changsheng's cognition.
The octopus monster opened its bloody jaw, and a column of water the thickness of a water tank spewed out towards everyone on the deck.
Suddenly, the people standing near the left side of the deck fell into bad luck, and many people's bodies flew upside down on the spot and fell into the sea.
Immediately afterwards, the two tentacles of the octopus monster more than ten zhang long were raised from high and slapped towards the Ninghai fiercely.
No matter how strong the Ninghai is, it can't withstand the blow of this monster! Many people's faces showed a look of despair, and some of the timid ones simply closed their eyes.
"Evil animal, look for death," the black-faced man standing near the palace girl snorted lightly, his right hand flipped, and there was a long black knife in his hand, and under the sunlight, the blade reflected a strange color.
The black-faced man walked quickly to the front, only to see the black long knife light up with an extremely dazzling black light, and swung fiercely towards the two tentacles that attacked.
A black light blade more than ten zhang long, exuding an astonishing aura, quickly greeted it.
As soon as the black light blade made contact with the two tentacles, the two tentacles were cut off, and without the blocking of the tentacles, the black light blade continued to run forward, passing through the octopus monster.
A moment later, the giant octopus split in two and sank to the bottom of the sea, splashing waves several feet high, and the blue waters were stained red with blood.
"Immortal Master, this is an immortal!"
Seeing this scene, the dignitaries on the deck were dumbfounded, but soon, they knelt on the deck and kowtowed to the black-faced man, their faces full of awe.
The black-faced man and the others didn't look at the people kneeling on the ground, and walked to the cabin with a reluctant face to the palace woman.
When he passed by Wang Changsheng's side, the black-faced man gently glanced in the direction where Wang Changsheng was, which made Wang Changsheng nervous, for fear that this foundation building master would look at him unpleasantly and kill him.
