Kokonoe

A hunting team called Suzaku?Really weird isn't it?

Mo Xuan said: "Don't think about it, it's just a coincidence."

Mu Ya didn't think so. In Nanyu, everyone knew that Suzaku was a guardian beast, so how dare they use this name?It's either courageous or there are other reasons.

"Maybe, Suzaku's follower?" Mu Ya thought.

The people in the team were packing their things, and the leader came over and said to the two, "Today we will rest here for the night first, and we will go to sea tomorrow morning."

Mo Xuan and Mu Ya did not refute. This time is the time for other teams to go out to sea to capture the sea monsters, and they cannot meet with them.

The two decided to do as the Romans do, and sleep here directly.

A few people were building a shed, Mu Ya looked at it for a long time and didn't know what to do, so he came back to Mo Xuan resentfully.

"Xuanxuan, where are we going to sleep tonight?"

Mo Xuan looked at Mu Ya's pitiful face, chuckled lightly, and gestured to the side: "Go and ask that Ah Yan."

"Huh?" Mu Ya blinked, and looked around for Ah Yan, and saw the boy standing in the shade of a tree with his arms folded, motionless.

"Go." Mo Xuan pouted.

Mu Ya snorted, confused, and walked over following Mo Xuan's words.

"Cough, um, little brother, let me ask, where shall we sleep tonight?" Mu Ya looked expectantly.

Ah Yan raised his head to look at Muya, then walked around him to look at Mo Xuan who was sitting under a tree not far behind, Mo Xuan noticed his gaze and gave him a faint smile.

Ah Yan was silent for a moment, then said: "Come with me."

Mu Ya's eyes lit up, and he nodded immediately: "Okay, thank you little brother."

Mo Xuan curled the corner of his mouth, looked around at the busy team members, and understood.

That night, Mo Xuan and Mu Ya squeezed into A Yan's shed.

"Haha, thank you little brother." Mu Ya said cheerfully.

"I've never slept in a place like this... Balabala..." Mu Ya lay beside Mo Xuan and muttered.

Mo Xuan helplessly filtered out the voices in his ears. He lay quietly on the soft straw mat and looked at the high moon through the straw curtain above his head. When was the last time he saw the moon like this?

The Sutra Pavilion, together with Mu Qi.

The moon is still generally bright and clear, and it seems to be the same in every interface. No matter you are happy or sad, she can always illuminate your heart with a faint and quiet light, so that you can calm down and see yourself clearly.

The voice in my ear gradually weakened, Mo Xuan turned his head and looked at Mu Ya's quiet side face, it's so good, there is still someone with me.Mu Qi and Mu Ya actually have the same temperament, but it seems that only such a temperament can get along with him.

Mo Xuan likes to be quiet, he likes to think or practice alone, and when he is with Anze, the two of them don't talk, just feel at ease.Being with Muqi and Muya is like throwing a stone on the surface of the lake, and the ripples circle after circle are joyful.

Cang Ming said, your mind is too heavy, it doesn't match your age.

Mo Xuan doesn't know why he has become such a temper, but he likes it, compared to the self who was not obsessed with the world.

Mu Ya seemed to be having some kind of dream, turned over, Mo Xuan covered him with the coat that he had taken off at the side, and his eyes fell on the boy who was a little further away from Mu Ya.

Ah Yan was still asleep, his back was facing the two of them, from the angle where Mo Xuan got up slightly, he could see his open eyes, eyes that were still clear under the moonlight.

One, the same worried child.

Mo Xuan twitched the corners of his mouth, and lay down gently again.

Before dawn the next day, Mo Xuan was woken up by the sound of rustling leaves. He raised his arms, moved Mu Ya's head away, and looked into the corner but found that the boy was not there.

There is only a gleam of light outside, where is it going?Mo Xuan put on his coat and went out of the shed.

The surroundings are very quiet, only the music of the wind and leaves.

Mo Xuan patrolled around, but did not find Ah Yan's shadow, and was wondering, suddenly a few leaves slowly fell, Mo Xuan reached out to catch a leaf, raised his head, sure enough.

"Aren't you going to sleep?" Mo Xuan gently landed on the branch and sat down leaning against the trunk.

Ah Yan turned his head, looked at him, and shook his head.

Mo Xuan didn't understand why this child was so taciturn, he didn't like to laugh, and reacted lightly to everything.

The two sat together on the tree, which was so high that they could see through the forest into the silent sea.

Mo Xuan's white clothes were dancing gently.

The sea surface in the distance was lifeless. Suddenly, a beam of orange-red light came across the sea surface. Slowly, the newborn sun climbed up bit by bit. At this moment, the dark blue sea surface finally had life. The wave light was jumping, and a group of monster birds flew by, hovering at the line between the water and the sky, and then lifted into the air, slowly flying away.

"Let's go." Ah Yan said in a low voice, and jumped straight down.

Mo Xuan looked at his whereabouts, didn't move, turned his head to watch the outline of the sun gradually become clear, and when the first ray of light passed through the dense forest and warmed the deep shade, the originally vivid sea surface appeared again. It returned to dead silence once.

"Xuanxuan! Let's go! What are you doing there!!" Mu Ya yelled at the ground.

Mo Xuan withdrew his gaze, and slipped off in white clothes.

The team has assembled.

Go to sea.

The boat moved slowly, Mo Xuan stood at the bow of the boat, facing the wind, the sun had already risen, which was a little dazzling.

Ah Yan stood on the other side, looking at the direction of travel.

Mu Ya slowly leaned over: "Is it reliable? Is this little brother showing the way?"

Mo Xuan nodded: "Don't worry."

The first part of the journey was gentle, the sea was very quiet, and no other people or monsters were seen.

Ah Yan suddenly said: "The front is the barrier of Xiyu, go south from west to east in two circles at the fast rock."

The helmsman took command immediately.

Mu Ya's eyes widened, he threw himself on the railing and watched, and asked: "Xiyu? How is it possible? Also, what does it mean to go around twice?"

Mo Xuan was also puzzled.

Ah Yan was always calm: "There is a gap here."

"!!!" Mu Ya's expression became even more exaggerated.

The boat slowly approached the rock, Ah Yan said loudly: "Steady!"

Mo Xuan immediately grabbed the wooden cliff lying on the railing and pulled back hard, and the two fell down. Mo Xuan's hands melted vines to tie them together and tied them to the pillars beside them.

Just after finishing this series of actions, in the next second, the whole ship turned its direction and started two circles completely in a posture about to be subverted.

Mu Ya didn't react at first, and only reached out and grabbed the vines on his body when he was about to be thrown out due to the impact.

"I'm going... to sail the boat..."

While Mo Xuan was transporting his spiritual energy, he also had to pay attention to the restless wooden cliff. The veins in his hands popped out suddenly. After a while, the boat returned to smooth sailing, and Mo Xuan finally let go of his strength.

"Huh~" Mu Ya panted and waved his hands: "I don't want to take a boat again!"

Mo Xuan tidied his clothes before standing up, and Ah Yan also stepped onto the bow.

"Look, ahead."

Mo Xuan and Mu Ya looked at the same time.

A small island was floating alone on the boundless sea, and what made Mo Xuan and Muya even more frightening was the white stone tower on the island that was covered with vines from a distance.

This is. . .

The two looked at each other and saw the same shock in each other's eyes!

The small island they were looking for and found the dragon turned out to be the gate of the fabled floating merman domain!

The key was with Yan Shuo, and even if the two of them had the key, there was still a group of people behind them, so this matter should not be exposed.

Let's talk about dragons!The two hit it off immediately and decided not to talk about the tower.

Slowly approaching the shore, Ah Yan left a few people on board, and took Mo Xuan and Mu Ya to the island.

"There's a cave ahead."

Mo Xuan followed Ah Yan, seeing his familiar directions, and even told them to be careful about the ground, he couldn't help asking: "Actually, you are the first one to find out, right?"

A Yan's footsteps didn't stop, as if he didn't hear him, he was still leading the way ahead, but the leader behind was startled.

At a distance of several hundred meters, a cave appeared in front of us, and it looked very hidden. It was surrounded by falling rocks, and two thirds of the entire cave entrance was covered, and the remaining third was also covered by tall weeds. .

It's hard work to find the people here.

Only one person could pass through the hole, Ah Yan bent down to go in, and Mo Xuan followed behind.

However, what Mo Xuan didn't expect was that it wasn't pitch black inside, but speckled with light.

The stone walls are embedded with small crystals of various colors, which can actually illuminate the surroundings in the claustrophobic cave.

Walking along the long and narrow corridor, one suddenly sees a larger cave, with scattered crystals and grass mats on the ground, it seems that something has inhabited here.

Mo Xuan stepped forward to take a look, and picked out a blue scale from the scattered straw.

"Dragon scale?" Mu Ya took it and looked at it, frowning.

Ah Yan stood aside and said, "It's right here."

However, apart from stones and crystals, there was nothing around, and even the dragon scale in his hand was damaged and nothing could be seen.

"Tell me the truth, you are the first to find out, right?" Mo Xuan looked at Ah Yan.

The people behind were more excited and seemed uneasy.

"We have something very important to confirm, please tell me the truth." Mo Xuan said.

Ah Yan lowered his eyelids: "Yes."

"What does that dragon look like? How many claws? Does he have any marks on his body? Is there only one?" Mu Ya asked anxiously, blurting out questions one after another.

Mo Xuan comforted Mu Ya to shut up first.

"I think we need to talk." He said to Ah Yan.

Ah Yan looked at Mo Xuan and nodded.

The two left the cave and found a relatively empty place.

"Actually, you are the captain." Mo Xuan said.

Ah Yan asked: "Why?"

"When we were fighting, everyone protected you at the end. It was you who made the decision to take us to find the dragon. You allocated the accommodation. Others are four or five people together. You can directly decide that we will be with you, and you actually did it yourself. Occupying a shed shows that your position is very high." Mo Xuan said one by one.

Ah Yan listened quietly, nodded, and did not deny it.

"I don't know why you need someone to stand in front of you, but I need your honesty now." Mo Xuan looked at Ah Yan seriously.

Ah Yan closed his eyes slightly, and said, "You can ask."

Mo Xuan smiled: "Is that dragon dead?"

"Correct."

"Do you have a mark on your body?"

"If you're talking about the contract imprint or something," Ah Yan raised his head and looked into Mo Xuan's eyes: "There is no beast totem."

Mo Xuan's face stiffened, and he suddenly laughed at himself: "I still underestimated you."

Ah Yan shook his head: "If he is, I won't just watch him die."

Now that it was done, Mo Xuan had nothing to hide, so he chatted with him.

"Watching him die?"

"Well, he is transforming and failed. He begged me to save him, but I didn't agree."

Mo Xuan already knew the rules between monsters, presumably the dragon wanted Ah Yan to make a contract with him to help him overcome the difficulty of transformation.

"Why didn't you save?" Mo Xuan was a little curious, knowing that it would be beneficial for him to make a one-stop contract, no matter whether he sincerely surrendered or not.

"I didn't want to contract a dragon, let alone a traitor, it would not do me any good to accept him."

"Traitor?" Mo Xuan didn't understand.

Ah Yan gave him a strange look: "How could there be a dragon in Beiming?"

Mo Xuan suddenly realized, yes, a question that was raised at the beginning, how could a dragon suddenly appear in Beiming?

"Dahuang..." Mo Xuan murmured.

"Well, he must have escaped from the wilderness." Ah Yan said.

Mo Xuan is a little worried, Cang Ming can only stay in the space now, and can't really come out, and Dahuang is now even the dragon escaped from the lower realm, I'm afraid something happened.

Ah Yan asked: "Why are you so nervous?"

Mo Xuan shook his head: "No..."

Ah Yan didn't ask any more questions, he glanced at the direction of the cave and said: "The matter is over, remember to go back and rectify our names."

Mo Xuan asked strangely: "Why are you obsessed with ranking in the alliance? In fact, you can leave the alliance completely."

Ah Yan has already turned around: "Dream."

Again, dream.

Mo Xuan looked at Ah Yan's thin back, and wanted to find out.

Long didn't see it, but he was sure it wasn't Canglong.

The group returned by boat again, Mu Ya and Mo Xuan glanced at the distant island, and the standing stone tower seemed to be waving to them.

Rest assured, we will be back.

The original route is the same as when I came here, I found the boundary point and detoured out, however. . .

"There is a situation." Ah Yan said coldly.

Mo Xuan boarded the bow and followed Ah Yan to look forward, the calm sea in front of him suddenly began to surge slowly, and the symbolic rock that came when he came had long since disappeared.

"What's going on?" Mu Ya also sensed something was wrong.

"There is something under the sea." Ah Yan said.

Mo Xuan's eyes fell on the sea in front of him. The blue sea was now completely covered in black. What was even more frightening was that the surrounding sea was constantly swaying, as if a storm was brewing.

All of a sudden, everyone became uneasy. Capturing the sea monster was already a very difficult task, not to mention facing an unknown sea.

"What should we do now?" Mu Ya looked at the undulating sea water around him and asked.

"Retreat, return to the island." Ah Yan said.

Yes, the only way is to go to the island first, and avoid it on land.

The ship immediately turned around, and everyone was on standby, and the island that had been far away now became everyone's life-saving place.

However, the rising sea water behind the ship has already overflowed the ship, and large and small eddies began to form on the surrounding sea surface. One after another, the ship shook violently, being continuously lifted and landed by the waves.

"Steady!" Ah Yan yelled.

Mo Xuan and Mu Ya clung to the railing tightly, and the sea water that beat on board had soaked them both.

"Damn it!" Mo Xuan exclaimed suddenly.

Everyone looked at it immediately, not far away, a huge wave was rushing towards it with the momentum to smash the world.

"Tuantuan!" Mo Xuan shouted.

The silvery white flashed past, the two tentacles pressed against the hull of the ship, and the limbs stepping on the sea surface exerted a little force, and the whole ship began to fly at high speed.

"Ah..." Mu Ya hugged Mo Xuan and kept screaming, he swore, really, never take a boat again! ! !

The huge waves behind were chasing after him, and Tuantuan was also trying his best to push the boat forward.

"Jump!!!" Mo Xuan looked at the huge waves that were close at hand, and the small island behind was also within reach.

With an order, everyone started to jump down one after another, and Tuantuan turned into a ray of light and immediately went to catch Mo Xuan. Mo Xuan pulled Muya and landed on Tuantuan's back together.

Qilin soared into the air, taking advantage of the impact force of the huge waves behind him to make a leap.

"Hoo hoo hoo..." Mu Ya collapsed on the ground, patted his chest and took deep breaths.

Mo Xuan rode on Tuantuan's back, looking at the wrecked boats and other people who were constantly thrashing in the water.

"Young master? Where's the young master?!"

"Little Master!?"

Some people who went ashore panicked and kept shouting toward the water.

Mo Xuan's heart trembled: "Tuantuan, go!"

Qilin soared into the sky again, Mo Xuan frowned and kept searching the surrounding sea area.

What about Ah Yan?

The waves were subsiding, and there were broken logs and masts floating on the sea. Mo Xuan searched carefully, and finally saw a figure struggling beside a crossbar.

"go with!"

Tuantuan fell straight down, Mo Xuan bent down and grabbed the struggling arm with one hand, and pulled it up forcefully, Ah Yan landed in front of Mo Xuan.

As if he had choked on water, Mo Xuan quickly patted him on the back, making him lie down and breathe slowly.

"Are you ready?" Mo Xuan asked.

"Cough cough cough..." After a cough, Ah Yan raised a hand and waved it, it's all right.

Tuantuan carried the two of them ashore, and the others immediately gathered around to check on Ah Yan's situation.

Ah Yan sat and rested for a while, then said: "I'm fine."

He looked at Mo Xuan: "Thank you."

The others were even more grateful to Mo Xuan.

"You called the young master just now?" Mu Ya asked while twisting his wet clothes.

Everyone looked at each other, Ah Yan nodded: "It's me."

It turned out that they were in a master-servant relationship.

Which young master would let him lead a team out as a hunter at such a young age?

However, it is too late to explore this question, and a bigger question is waiting for everyone.

"The ship is destroyed, how to go back?" Someone asked a question.

After resting, Ah Yan stood up, looked at the sea for a moment and said: "The boat is not a problem."

"Huh?" Just as Mu Ya was about to ask a question, suddenly, the sea surface that had just calmed down violently, and amidst the exclamation of everyone, a huge, black monster slowly rose from the bottom of the sea, and countless sea water flowed from it. Sliding down, rolling up the waves, from the head, to the huge body, to the seemingly boundless wings and the tail that constantly swings to cause huge waves.

The monster revealed its original shape little by little, then suddenly shook its wings and soared into the sky. Everyone felt that their eyes went dark, the sun was completely covered, and the whole island was covered by the monster.

"What is this... a ghost..." Someone was already petrified.

Mo Xuan raised his neck and looked at the monster beast covering the sky and continuously splashing sea water on his body. He found a rare calm amidst the wailing and exclamation behind him.

"Kun."
