Chapter 66: The City of the Phantom Sea
The roar of the waves crashing against the shore woke up Xiao Wen, who was unconscious on the shore.
Xiao Wen vividly touched his body, but suddenly grinned in pain, and the bones of his entire body seemed to be broken, and the pain was unbearable when he moved.
After a while, after the pain was a little lighter, Xiao Wensheng gritted his teeth and sat up cross-legged, and began to run the True Yuan to repair the injuries in his body.
An hour later, Xiao Wensheng's slightly closed eyes slowly broke away, the injuries in his body were not very serious, and now there was no major problem.
After looking at the surroundings, I saw that the place I was in at the moment was a beach, and there was no fine sand on the beach, only angular gravel.
A thick white mist shrouded the surroundings, making it impossible to see too far away from the sight of less than 100 meters, which also made Xiao Wensheng unable to determine whether he was now sent back to the sea by the Nine Dragons or on a small island.
Xiao Wensheng released his divine sense, wanting to explore the situation where he could not see in his field of vision, but when his divine consciousness reached a hundred meters away, he suddenly disappeared without a trace, as if swallowed by this white mist.
This discovery shocked Xiao Wensheng.
"It seems that this is not the shore where I came, it should be a small island, but there is a strange feeling on this small island. ”
Xiao Wensheng looked at the clothes he was wearing, after experiencing the Nine Dragons Spiral and the Void Crack, they were already in tatters, like a beggar's outfit.
"Nine Hells!"
Suddenly, Xiao Wensheng was shocked in his heart, he remembered that in the end, he used the Nine Shadows Prison as protection, and his mind sank into the Dantian Sea to take a look, and the Nine Shadows Prison was quietly floating in the Dantian Sea, and then he was relieved.
At this time, Xiao Wensheng suddenly heard a sound coming from a distance, the sound was very small and far away, but it was real.
"Someone here?"
It's good to have someone, at least you can know where you are now, thinking of this, Xiao Wensheng stood up, moved his body, which was still in pain, and walked in the direction where the voice came.
The further you go, the clearer the sound becomes, like the cacophony of people in front of a city in front of it.
With walking, when away from the seaside, the road began to appear under his feet, and the fog around it began to slowly become thinner, and when a huge city appeared in front of Xiao Wensheng's eyes, there was no fog around, and the fog, like an eggshell, wrapped the entire island.
The city wall is very high and thick, and at this moment, in front of him, there is a huge city gate, and there is an endless stream of people coming and going.
And above this city gate, the three gilded characters of "Phantom Sea City" are unusually conspicuous, which makes Xiao Wensheng see it from afar.
"After searching for a long time, I couldn't find this Phantom Sea City, but I let the water dragon swirl here, life is really wonderful. ”
Xiao Wensheng's heart, which had been hanging all the time, finally settled down a little at this moment, since this Phantom Sea City existed, then the mirage would not be false.
Walking to the front of the city, this city wall gave Xiao Wensheng a sense of heaviness, which can only appear after a long period of baptism.
Following the flow of people, Xiao Wensheng entered the city, I don't know why, the more he walked into the city, the more familiar Xiao Wensheng became with this city, as if he had been here before.
Thatched cottage, Yichun Building, Wanhua Restaurant, Xiao Wensheng looked at the architectural layout here, and a strange look appeared on his face.
This city of the illusory sea is extremely similar to Los Angeles.
Not far away, there was a five-story restaurant called Wanhua, where literati, officials, merchants, martial artists, and all kinds of people came in and out, so it was not lively, and even Xiao Wensheng saw the monks.
And this kind of place is the most suitable for finding out information.
Xiao Wensheng walked into the restaurant, and sat by the window on the fifth floor under the warm hospitality of the shopkeeper, where the scenery is the best and you can see the distance.
"Guest, are you alone?"
The shopkeeper had a warm smile on his face, and said after wiping the table top where Xiao Wensheng was sitting.
"yes, any questions?"
"No, I just see that you are a little faceless, you just came to our Illusory Sea City, right?"
"Well, I just arrived here today, and your shopkeeper has some skills, and he can even recognize his face. ”
"This is too simple, you will definitely like it here, you come to our Wanhua Restaurant, then you must taste our Wanhua wine, which is made by picking more than 10,000 kinds of flower dew, to ensure that you are satisfied." ”
"Okay, just do as you say, have a pot of Wanhua wine, and a few side dishes at will. ”
"Okay, guest officer, wait a minute. ”
After speaking, the shopkeeper trotted all the way downstairs.
Because the view above the fifth floor is wide, the scenery is unique, so there are no empty seats on it, all of them are full of people, and the noise below is different, what is done here are Sven people, and the sound of talking to each other is not very loud, making this place quiet.
Xiao Wensheng turned his face to the window, pretending to look at the scenery outside the window, but in fact, he had already released his divine sense, and he was listening to whether there was any information he wanted to know about the topics that the people here were talking about.
"Do you know, a few days ago, there was another Nine Dragons sucking water in the South China Sea, and it is said that this time the momentum was terrifying. ”
"Yes, although we are far away from here, we have seen a little bit of that horrible sight. ”
"Have you noticed that recently, there have often been sea tribes in the nearby waters, often intercepting fishermen who go out to fish, and asking them for news about their little sea princess? ”
"Really, this sea tribe wants to come to the mysterious people who don't live on our land, what's wrong with their little princess?"
"It is said that the little princess of their sea clan has mysteriously disappeared. ”
"It's missing, how can it be? This vast sea area, isn't it the territory of the Sea Clan, how can it be missing?"
"Isn't that what weird things are!"
Xiao Wensheng frowned, the information these people talked about turned out to be something he knew.
"Do you know, our king's youngest daughter is now an adult, and in three days, the little princess will be on the tower of Qingluan City to choose the future master of the horse for herself. ”
"I've heard about this too, our little princess is said to look like a water spirit, just like a fairy in the sky. ”
"It's like you've seen fairies. ”
"You know, our princess doesn't love martial arts, but loves personable scholars, I really don't know which guy can have such good luck and be selected by our little princess, then this life is in the arms, the glory and wealth are enjoyed, and there are no regrets in this life." ”
"yes, who wouldn't say, if I were twenty years younger......"
"You looked so ugly before you were twenty years old, others don't know that I don't know, don't you know, the toad wants to eat swan meat. ”
Listening to the chats of these people, Xiao Wensheng sent away waves of guests for a day, but he didn't hear a little news about Mirage.
Xiao Wensheng sat here for three days, and in these three days, what he heard the most was the choice of a horse by the youngest daughter of the self-proclaimed king of the city lord, which was tomorrow.
Xiao Wensheng picked up the wine glass and took a sip of the so-called best wine in Phantom Sea City, Wanhua Wine, but it was as tasteless as clear water.
"Little two. ”
Late at night on the third day, when Xiao Wensheng was about to leave, he called the shopkeeper who was lying drowsy not far away.
The shopkeeper stood up, rubbed his astringent eyes, and walked in front of Xiao Wensheng.
"Guest, do you have anything you need?"
"I'm more interested in Mirage, tell me everything you know about Mirage, and these silver taels will be all yours. ”
Xiao Wensheng threw a silver ingot on the table and made a clatter.
Seeing this ingot of silver, the eyes of the shopkeeper who were originally half-asleep suddenly lit up.
"It turns out that you are here to find the mirage, and I won't tell you that there are many people in our city who are here for this mirage. ”
"Oh, has anyone found it?"
"I've never heard of it, there is a heavenly palace in the sky above this illusory sea city, it will appear once in a while, and each appearance only exists for a few hours, it is said that as long as you can find a way to enter the heavenly palace, you can get the mirage. ”
"Heavenly Palace?"
Xiao Wensheng said suspiciously, he thought that after finding the Phantom Sea City, he would be able to find the Mirage Pill relatively easily, but it seems that he was thinking wrong again, if nothing else, this Mirage Pill is even more difficult to find than this Phantom Sea City.
"When is the next time the Heavenly Palace appears?" Xiao Wensheng was thinking about the authenticity of his words while continuing to paraphrase the shop's junior two.
"Just three days later, on the day when the little princess chose the princess, I didn't believe what I said when I saw you, but when you saw the Heavenly Palace with your own eyes three days later, you knew that what I said was true. ”
The excitement that the shopkeeper said was already sleepy by this time.
"Anything else?"
"This is nothing else, you can't see it too early, guest officer, we should also close, should you go back and rest?"
With a smile on the face of Xiao Er, Xiao Wensheng walked out of the restaurant and returned to the place where he lived, and after three days, he might be able to know the answer.
