I have five elf brothers

The ghost doctor's next words verified Jiuyou's guess.

He said: "If the puppets of the Puppet Witch are all made of paper, you can consider attacking them with fire elements."

Turning around, he denied this statement, "But for us, if we want to completely destroy her, we still have to break her body. Therefore, our guesses are just guesses after all, and we must be cautious in everything, otherwise, the stakes are high." The beings in the underworld that we can't pay for."

Jiuyou replied silently: "Yes, so our biggest problem is that we can't find the body of the puppet witch."

The audience was silent for a moment, and Ye Yu secretly sighed.

When Lord Yan saw this, he was actually happy, which caused Lord Youming to look sideways at him, and the others were also full of doubts.

He smiled and said to Lord Nether, "God, Xiaoxian has an idea. The puppets of the Puppet Witch do look like paper, but from the perspective of the wily old devil, why did he choose such a fragile material as paper?" ?”

"Because the demon world has been sucked dry by him?" As soon as Lord Youming said, he saw the stagnant smile on Lord Yan's face, and then he became serious, trying to think about the problem from the perspective of the old devil, "Is it actually a blindfold?"

"Exactly." Lord Yan let out a long sigh of relief, thinking that Lord You Ming finally understood what he meant.

"Xiaoxian heard that in the spirit veins of the underworld, that is, in the depths of the sea of ​​​​underworld, there is a magical sea turtle. Its name sounds like a plant, but it is actually an animal. It has dozens of tentacles, and each tentacle They can release toxins, and they will do everything in order to survive. Both strength and toxins are enough to destroy everything. Minghai is the spiritual vein of the underworld, and Haikui has lived here for generations. Think about it, you know, the source of spiritual power in Minghai, What a power it has given them."

"But according to the legend, after eating the toxin in each of Haikui's tentacles, the inanimate can become animate, and the psychic can become a god. If the old devil once obtained Haikui's toxin and used it for the puppet he made It is quite easy to create a witch who can have many abilities."

"Of course, this is just a legend, because Haikui has many tentacles. Oftentimes, people who come here because of their reputation will be beaten to death by Haikui the moment they find him, let alone eat all the toxins in their tentacles. Once again."

Jiu You seems to understand the principle: Isn't this the survivor's bias?

She asked Yan Jun: "Is this legend spread by people who have eaten Haikui toxin and survived? I guess, in fact, Haikui toxin is basically the same as other poisons, except that some people will not be poisoned, and in After surviving, they become immortals and gods through cultivation. But these are only a few people. The reason why the legend is a legend is because most of the people who want to practice it are already dead."

"They can no longer open their mouths to tell their successors about the dangers of Haikui, and history is written by the victors who survived."

Jiuyou asked Shen Yuan from Minghai: "How is it, Third Senior Brother? Am I right?"

Shen Yuan affirmed: "That's exactly the case. Haikui has always lived alone, and he will not take the initiative to attack intruders. Because Haikui is often surrounded by dense bones, which is enough to deter intruders. Only those who are not afraid of death will try and get punished."

Jiuyou sighed: "The bold are exhausted, and the timid are starved to death. In fact, the purpose of becoming a fairy is to test patience, but there are always people who think that wealth and wealth are sought in danger."

Wan Tan, who has never talked much, is very interested in this, because she was originally a senior sister in the Mochizuki Sect, who is famous for her research on poison production and detoxification.

She asked the ghost doctor, "Does Xianjun know how to deal with Haikui?"

As an old fairy doctor, the ghost doctor naturally heard about it, "Xiaoxian once read related records in ancient books that the toxin in Haikui's tentacles varies according to the body constitution of the person. But Xiaoxian has become a fairy and does not I don't have the ambition to suddenly become a god, so I don't care much about it. But since the city lord mentioned it today, Xiaoxian suggested that if we go deep into the sea of ​​darkness, we will definitely have a chance to obtain some toxins. At that time, Xiaoxian will decompose and extract the toxins, maybe Find the puppet witch's body and weaknesses, and destroy her."

Wan Tan thought for a while, and was about to answer, but was interrupted by Su Youjun.

"You are no longer the Kui'er you were back then, and you don't have the original body that is invulnerable to all poisons. This move is too risky for you, because you can't guarantee that you will be safe after eating the poison. Your spiritual body is hard-won, There may not be such an opportunity every time. What's more-"

When Su Youjun said this, he was too sad to speak.

But everyone knows that what Mr. Suyou didn't say was that Kui'er was invulnerable to all kinds of poisons, but died of poisoning.In any case, he couldn't bear the risk of Tan Tan dying of poison again.

Suyou hurriedly comforted Mr. Suyou, took the initiative to wrap his arms around his waist, poked his head in his arms, and said softly, "But my mission in life is to study poison and memory beads. Why don't you think so, In fact, I changed into a spirit body just to continue my mission, instead of becoming a mediocre person who is afraid of even a straw rope that looks like a poisonous snake.

"But you also have to consider my feelings. No matter what you do, we will always be together, don't you? With me here, you don't have to think so much. "

Mr. Suyou still wanted to argue, but Suan hurriedly winked at Qingyi.

Qing Yi stepped forward, and just opened her mouth to shout, "Master——"

Su Youjun interrupted her: "Don't talk yet."

Qing Yi silently shut up, and stood aside: "Okay, if I help you again, I'm a dog."

Su Youjun grabbed both of Tan Tan's shoulders, and stared at her, and Tan Tan stubbornly looked back, without saying anything.

In the end, Su Youjun compromised, "You can go to Minghai, but you can't leave Shen Yuan and me."

As Shen Yuan is a "native-born" elf in the underworld, following him will not get lost.

Hearing Lord You Ming mentioning him, Shen Yuan immediately responded, "Okay, God."

Jiuyou:?
Is this decided?
Then she...she can just stick to Shen Yuan's side!
Yan Tan relaxed and smiled: "Okay, I will listen to you."

***
As the "spokesperson" of Minghai among all people, Shen Yuan dutifully led everyone outside of Minghai.

After inquiring about his personal wishes, Shen Yuan led Jiuyou, Yanyu, Suyoujun and Yigui into the underworld to look for Haikui.

The reason why Jiuyou wanted to investigate Minghai was not only because he was interested in Haikui.More importantly, she still remembered her mission, she wanted to understand Shen Yuan's growth environment, and figure out why Shen Yuan ended up sinking into the abyss.

The remote waters that the underworld is most proud of is the underworld.As early as when Jiuyou and Jasper Lake met, she had a deep-rooted thought about the fact that Minghai is the spiritual vein of the underworld.

Not only because of Suyoujun's exhortation, Suyoujun held Suyoujun's hand, but also did not forget to follow the path led by Shen Yuan.Jiuyou held onto Shen Yuan's hand even more, unwilling to let go.

Although she clearly understood that even the Underworld Emperor hadn't appeared, it was still too early for Shen Yuan to go to the tragedy, and she was no longer the little girl who was so frightened that she wanted to "die for love" as soon as Shen Yuan entered the water.

Shen Yuan thought that Jiuyou was still afraid of water because of the thought of sinking into Jasper Lake, so he comforted her "don't be afraid", while recalling what he had experienced in Minghai before and telling her.

"Early before I knew what temperature was, I discovered that the farther I was from the bottom of the sea and the closer I was to the ground, the more I could feel a subtle warmth. This kind of warmth is the same as when I went to the world. At the time, the warmth received from the sun was insignificant. But at the beginning, I actually preferred to stay in the sea of ​​​​the underworld than to go to the human world. Even if the sea of ​​​​the underworld is the coldest place in the underworld, I am willing Ruoyi."

Listening to his storytelling, Jiuyou felt at peace in her heart, "Because you are a water elf, the water in the dark sea can bring you enough sense of security."

Shen Yuan nodded and said, "There are reasons for this. But sometimes, especially at night, when I travel around the world, I am actually confused. I am confused why some people like to lie down at night, and why some people like to go out at night. The lights are still brightly lit, why does the river freeze in winter. These situations will not happen in the underworld.”

A little boy full of question marks gradually appeared in Jiuyou's mind, which made her overjoyed.

Shen Yuan looked down at the top of her head, sensed her emotions inexplicably, and laughed too, and then heard her say——

"I understand your question. Because there is a word called fireworks in the world. It is not just saying that there are fireworks in the world, so there will be heat and excitement, which is contrary to the cold sky and earth in the world. It is said that in order to survive, people need to eat; in order to eat, they need to light fires. Moreover, during festivals, the world often lights up lights to celebrate. Even when wars are raging, fires are often lit to boost morale.”

After Jiuyou finished speaking, he also published his answer to Shen Yuan's doubts, "So, the weird things in your eyes are just ordinary things that happen every day in the world. You can't understand their behavior, and they can't understand it. I understand why you are confused."

Shen Yuan originally listened to Jiu You's words seriously, but after listening, he felt that something was wrong.

Why when I met her, she looked like a five or six-year-old undead, but she could know so many things?
Could it be because before she knew him, she had wandered in the underworld or the six realms for several years without being reincarnated?
But why does the master trust her so much, and thinks she is the junior sister of the Five Elements Sect?

Shen Yuan stared ahead, trying hard to suppress the huge waves of doubt in his heart, only saying that he was too suspicious.

***
Finally, under the guidance of Shen Yuan, the group found the first sea king.

If it weren't for Shen Yuan's identification, no one would have imagined that in the dark deep sea, on the edge of the strangely shaped rocks, what looked like dark green moss turned out to be a sea king who perfectly disguised himself.

Thinking of the countless people who have come to the dark sea one after another in order to become immortals and gods, and have dived into the deepest part of the sea. I don’t know how long it took to find Haikui who is so good at disguising, and he may be furious before he tasted the first mouthful of poison. Haikui was killed...

Jiuyou felt: It's good to be alive.
