Chapter 66: The Merman

After Mu Chen left the temple, he returned to the bedroom. According to the rotation arrangement, Mu Chen's fifth squad had the turn to patrol in the early morning, so now they could go back to their rooms to rest.

"Mu Chen, what should we do next?" asked Jie Shuli.

Mu Chen thought for a while and replied, "Let's go to the back of the hall in a while." ”

Mu Chen and Duan Sheli saw that the fish people in the house were asleep, so they quietly slipped out the door.

Exit the gate of the guard's office, go straight to the left, go around a long palace wall, and arrive at the back of the main hall.

Mu Chen and Duan Sheli hid behind a rockery, waiting for the patrolling fishmen to walk by.

Just walk through the rockery and pass a garden to the Queen's bedchamber.

Just as Mu Chen and Duan Sheli were dodging the fish-man, a paper crane suddenly appeared in front of him and burst into flames.

"Suffer! Liu Yu is in danger. Mu Chen exclaimed in surprise, forgetting that the fishman hadn't gone far yet.

"Who?"

When the patrolling fish people heard the sound, they immediately returned, surrounding Mu Chen and Duan Sheli.

"Why are you here?

"We ...... We are the fifth squad. He replied in a vain manner.

The fishman at the head looked at Mu Chen and Duan Sheli suspiciously, "Then what are you doing here?"

"This ......" really can't think of any reason to break away.

"Alas," Mu Chen on the side sighed, "I can only do it." ”

When the words fell, Mu Chen made a move in an instant, and slapped a palm on the chest of a fishman, who was instantly knocked a few meters away, crashed into the rockery and fainted.

"Just don't kill them. ”

The few fishmen in front of him were easy to solve, but they were knocked out by Mu Chen and Duan Sheli in two or three clicks. But there was movement here, and the footsteps of the fish-people could be heard not far away.

"Ah Li, you go and save Liu Yu. ”

"Then what are you going to do? We don't know the strength of the queen yet?" asked Jie Shuli worriedly.

At this time, more than a dozen fishmen with weapons had already appeared in front of Mu Chen.

"I'm going to be fine, you go quickly!"

Mu Chen said and landed in front of the fishmen in a volley and fought with them.

"Let's go!" After the fight, Mu Chen took out a set of diving suits from the void rope and threw them to Broken Sheli, and then removed the transformation technique on Broken Away's body and changed back to his original appearance.

"Okay, be careful yourself. I saved Liu Yu and came back. She took the wetsuit and quickly disappeared into the night.

Now the fish people are rushing towards the rockery behind the main hall, and they can easily slip out of Sanssouci Palace and swim towards the sea.

In the rockery, Mu Chen quickly solved batch after batch of fish people. Their combat effectiveness is really not very good, but they are a little faster than ordinary people, and their strength is a little greater.

But it still took Mu Chen some energy to clean up these fish people. Because he knew that these fish people turned out to be ordinary humans, and he couldn't kill them, so Mu Chen was very careful every time he hit them, for fear that he would kill them.

But after a while, a large number of fishmen fell on the ground around Mu Chen. But in an instant, another layer of fish-men surrounded him.

Just as Mu Chen was about to strike again, these fishmen suddenly gave way, and a tall fishman walked in with his hands behind his back. It was the king who spoke tonight.

Wang Chang stared at Mu Chen and asked in a deep voice, "You are not from Sanssouci Palace?"

"Heh," Mu Chen sneered, thinking that this Wang Chang is not talking nonsense, Lao Tzu has been fighting for so long, and you can only now see that I am not a fish man, "Congratulations, you guessed right." ”

Mu Chen said and changed back to his original appearance.

"You turned out to be human!" Seeing Mu Chen's original appearance, Wang Chang glared at Mu Chen in shock but full of anger.

"What," Mu Chen was glared at by Wang Chang uncomfortably, "Weren't you and these fish people also human before?"

"Haha!" Wang Chang suddenly laughed, took a few steps forward and continued: "I am not the same as them, I am a merman. ”

Sharks?

Legend has it that the ancient human branch that lived at the bottom of the sea gradually degraded its legs in order to adapt to life in the sea, and eventually turned into a human body and a fishtail.

But no one knows where the mermaids live and what sea area they live in.

Occasionally, legends or news stories spread that mermaids had been sighted, but no one could photograph them. Therefore, many people think that it is just a fake legend about the mermaid family.

Mu Chen looked at the merman in front of him, I don't know why he is in this place, is the queen also a merman?

"Aren't you shark people all living in clusters, how can you be here by yourself?" asked Mu Chen.

Who knew that Wang Chang's face changed, he became fierce, and said coldly: "You know too much, you can go on the road well." ”

After finishing speaking, a fishbone sword conjured up in Wang Chang's hand, pointing directly at Mu Chen.

Mu Chen jumped back and skillfully dodged the sword.

At the same time, the Imperial Dragon Sword appeared in Mu Chen's hand. Mu Chen thought to himself that since this Wang Chang was not a human being, he didn't need to show mercy to his subordinates.

"Good sword!" Wang Chang stared at the golden dragon sword in Mu Chen's hand and admired it again and again.

"Less nonsense, look at the sword. ”

Mu Chen ran forward with the Dragon Sword, his other hand waving in the air, and one by one the seals appeared in mid-air. I saw Mu Chen suddenly fly upward, and the dragon sword went straight through the seal, and a dragon roar resounded through the sky.

Then, with a wave of Mu Chen's imperial sword in mid-air, a golden sword qi slashed straight down, heading straight for Wang Chang.

Wherever the sword qi passed, the big trees were cut down, the boulders were broken into pieces, and the fish people took refuge in all directions.

This trick is called Sword Qi Transformation Dragon, which was given to him by the master when Mu Chen was still in the Peach Blossom Spring, but at that time, Mu Chen's spiritual power and mana were not enough to drive this sword technique. It wasn't until the unknown spiritual power that Mu Chen's strength increased greatly that he understood this sword technique and learned this move.

Seeing that the sword qi was coming directly towards him, Wang Chang didn't dodge, but instead held the fishbone sword across his chest, ready to block Mu Chen's sword. There was a hint of expectation in Wang Chang's eyes.

"Bang!" The sword qi hit Wang Chang's body, stirring up a layer of white mist. After the fog cleared, I saw that Wang Chang, who was hit by the sword qi, except for a few steps back, his face was calm and unharmed, and he actually caught the sword alive.

Mu Chen began to worry in his heart, this Wang Chang's strength must be extraordinary.

"Boy, if we have the ability, how about we go to the square in front of the main hall and duel? Wang Chang, who took Mu Chen's sword, proposed excitedly.

"What kind of duel method?" Mu Chen asked lightly.

Wang Chang had already made a decision in his heart, and replied briskly: "You win, I will let you get out of here safely." If you lose, you will willingly become a fish man and listen to me for the rest of your life. ”

Mu Chen thought to himself that this Wang Chang thought really well, anyway, he would not suffer.

But after all, he is still on other people's territory, and the strength of this king is not to be underestimated, what about the queen's strength? Mu Chen thought about it, if he won and could leave safely, it would be a good deal.

"Okay, let's go. Mu Chen agreed to the duel, put down his sword and walked out first.

In a duel, the first thing is to overwhelm the enemy in momentum.

A few hours ago, Liu Yu, who had stayed behind, left the ship and entered a forest closest to the herringbone island, where he wanted to pick up some branches to light the fire.

By this time it was already dark, and the night by the sea was very cold. The cold wind was blowing like a knife, cutting people's faces painfully. Liu Yu tightened the clothes on his body and muttered, "I'll go to the front to pick up some firewood, there shouldn't be any danger." ”

Liu Yu held a strong light to shine ahead, looking around from time to time.

Liu Yu walked into the woods, which were surprisingly quiet, and there was not even the sound of leaves, as if the sea breeze had been cut off when it arrived.

Where the light shines, there are trees except trees. Whether it is flying in the sky or crawling on the ground, so far not a living thing has been seen.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. ”

Liu Yu quietly cheered himself up and continued to walk towards the woods.

"There you have, come on, that's all there is to it. ”

In the end, Liu Yu found some dry branches, took out the rope prepared in advance, and tied the firewood he had picked up.

At this moment, the surrounding branches began to shake and make a rustling sound.

Under the light, countless branches of various sizes writhed strangely. Like a withered hand in the air, sometimes sharp and violent, sometimes soft and swaying.

"There's no wind here. Liu Yu took off the hat on his head. I thought that these branches were swaying because of the strong wind, but Liu Yu didn't feel a trace of wind.

Because of this, Liu Yu began to be afraid, he felt a chill on his back, but he suddenly shone the flashlight behind him, but there was nothing, except for the writhing branches.

Liu Yu fastened his hat tightly on his head, held the bundle of branches in one hand and a flashlight in the other, illuminating the way back.

"Come on, come on, don't be afraid!" Liu Yu took a few deep breaths, clenched his hands tightly, and rushed out.

Liu Yu didn't dare to look back, staring at the bright light in front of him, and ran forward quickly.

"Whew, whew. Liu Yu stopped, his hands on his knees, and he kept panting.

He held up his flashlight again and looked ahead, and there was a long wood. This is the third time he has stopped, and the first two times have been such a long distance.

Liu Yu, who originally thought that he had run in the wrong direction, finally found out that he had not run out.

"I'm not going to meet a ghost hitting the wall. Liu Yu trembled and was alert to his surroundings, except for his strong heartbeat, it was still so quiet.

"Try again. ”

Liu Yu suppressed the fear in his heart and prepared to run again. This time, he untied the rope that bound the branches and hung them on a branch on his left side.

After doing all this, Liu Yu moved his body a few times and ran towards the bright light again.

Following the bright light, Liu Yu insisted on looking ahead, ensuring that he was walking in a straight line. Until he stopped, his head tilted slightly to the left.

"Ahh That was ten minutes ago, Liu Yu personally tied it.

Could it be that these trees, with their legs, walk? But they do move.

Liu Yu squatted on the ground tremblingly, and kept shining a flashlight back and forth.

"Yes, paper cranes. ”

Liu Yu suddenly thought of the paper crane that Mu Chen handed him, and quickly took it out of his clothes pocket.

Liu Yu held the paper crane in his hand, and he didn't know if it was really useful. But at this moment, he believed in Mu Chen very much in his heart. Liu Yu took out the lighter on his body, "Click!", a trace of fire burst out and climbed onto the paper crane.

"Save me, save me, come on!" Liu Yu looked at the burning paper crane, anxious and scared.
