treacherous world

When I came to the coast, I saw corpses soaked in seawater all over the ground, which made people feel sick.

Gongsun hurriedly scooped up the medicinal wine from the box and wet the veil, and covered the faces of the servants who were in charge of saving people.At this time, Min Soo Soo also rushed over, "Oh, what's going on?"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang have already covered their mouths and noses and started looking for a living. Not to mention, there are quite a few angry ones, but all of them look weird... I saw their faces turned blue, and some of them foamed at the mouth as if they were shot. Poisoned.

"They were poisoned by the miasma!" Gongsun checked one by one, "These people probably escaped because of their deep internal strength. The others were stunned by the miasma poison and sank to the bottom of the sea and drowned."

Zhan Zhao was puzzled, "Why is there miasma in the sea?"

"Yes!" Min Xiuxiu knew that he didn't know these things, and patiently explained to him, "In the mud on the bottom of the sea, there are often large bubbles full of miasma! This single capsized ship hits these bubbles, and it might even explode! "

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang's eyes widened, it was the first time they had heard of it.

"Miasma bubbles in the sea are rare. Some of them are natural. For example, there are swamps on the beach here. Some of them are because there are holes in the mud. The air has been in it for a long time, so it is invalid and poisonous." Gongsun first treated those few Those who were not dead were prescribed a prescription and carried in to detoxify them, and for those who were not seriously injured, they were given some refreshing medicinal wine.

The other dead bodies were buried and placed on the shore, and relatives of various sects were notified to claim them.

For a while, the empty island was bustling.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were able to tell the identities of the Jianghu people roughly by their clothes, and found that most of the dead were thieves, and some of them were sinful enough to die. They felt a little better.

After a while, a few woke up, and Zhan Zhao went over to ask them what happened.

The few people were vague and couldn't explain it clearly, so they said that the dragon suddenly emerged from the water and overturned the boat. After the boat capsized, they fell into the sea and were swept by the huge current.A few others said that they saw distorted images of monsters and ghosts in the sea... But Gongsun said that it was a hallucination caused by poisoning.

In the following time, many martial arts people flooded up on the empty island, crying and screaming in all kinds of ways, and it was a mess.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were overwhelmed, so they boarded the boat and waited on the boat while discussing today's affairs.

A few days ago, the fourth son heard his grandmother talk about Beihai. It is said that it is like a fairyland on earth, with glaciers and snow fields, and silver foxes.He especially wanted to catch a few silver foxes and raise them.Moreover, Songjiang Mansion is full of noise recently, and Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang are also busy. He felt that it was boring, so he pulled the two of them and asked, "Meow Meow Baibai, let's not stay on Sinking Island, shall we?"

"Huh?" Both of them were taken aback for a moment, looking at the fourth son puzzledly, "If you don't stay on Xingkong Island, where are you going?"

"Go to Beihai!" The fourth son thought with a smile, isn't there thousands of mountains and birds flying across thousands of paths and people disappearing in Beihai? !That is to say, there must be no one, and no one will naturally have no case!You can let Miaomiao cultivate a good relationship in vain, of course... and his father and Zhao Pu.

"What are you going to Beihai for?" Zhan Zhao picked up the fourth son, "The case here is not yet settled."

Xiao Liang brought out a plate of fruit from the cabin, walked closer and heard it clearly, and said, "Yeah, the latest case is so annoying, I don't have a clue."

"What case?" Little Si wrinkled his nose, stretched out his hand to grab Zhan Zhao's hair and pinched it lightly, while looking at Bai Yutang who was looking at the sea and thinking.

"Well... From the strange killing of a few people at the beginning, to the burning of the Sea Dragon Gang, and the overturning of so many treasure thieves, this case is quite complicated."

"Then why do so many things happen? For the money or for the fame?" The fourth son tilted his head, "There are so many people here, does Miaomiao have a big treasure this time?"

Bai Yutang looked back at him, "Little Si, do you think killing people is either for fame or profit?"

"Then what else can I do?" The fourth son thought for a while, then clapped his hands, "Oh! It's for love!"

Zhan Zhao also felt that this case was somewhat incomprehensible.After this round of incidents, the murderer has no clues, so what is the purpose?

As he was thinking about it, he saw the fourth son suddenly pointing forward, "Auntie!"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang followed his fingers, and saw Aunt Mei came out of the room at some point, standing on the sea in the distance, looking here, no need to ask... she must be looking at Bai Yutang .

Both of them frowned. There are so many outsiders on the island at this time, why did my aunt run out?And if she stands on the sea like this out of thin air, isn't she trying to scare others to death?

"I'll go and ask her to come back." Bai Yutang turned over and got off the boat, and quickly walked behind Aunt Mei along the beach, beckoning her to come back.

Aunt Mei had seen him a long time ago, and when she saw him calling her, she ran back with a smile, "Xin'er, there are a lot of people here."

Seeing her stepping over the water calmly, Bai Yutang was a little curious, so he asked, "You... came here by stepping on the water?"

Aunt Mei shook her head, "There are stones."

Bai Yutang squatted down and lightly poked the surface of the sea with a knife, but he didn't find any stones.

"It's not here!" Aunt Mei grabbed his arm and adjusted his direction, "It's here."

Sure enough, Bai Yutang felt that he had bumped into something hard, but from the surface of the sea, there was nothing.

He felt incredible, "What is that?"

"The piles laid by people in the past!" Aunt Mei smiled and said to Bai Yutang, "It's the crystal stone pile foundation, very solid, very solid.

"There is such a thing?" Bai Yutang was taken aback. He thought that he had been on Sunken Island for so long, but he had never found it... But this place is shallow, and usually the boat will not stop and no one will pay attention to it, so it has not been noticed. found understandable.

"You just said pile foundation, what kind of pile foundation? Who made it?"

"Those who go to the sea to find treasures." Aunt Mei replied, "I have traveled many times before, going down a little bit, to the bottom of the sea, and there are treasures along the way!"

"Is there such a thing?"

At this time, Jiang Ping appeared out of nowhere and stood beside the crowd.

"Why don't you take me for a walk?" While speaking, Jiang Ping took off his coat, leaving only his underpants, and wanted to follow Aunt Mei into the water.

"Fourth Brother!" Bai Yutang was worried that something might happen. Aunt Mei's physical condition was very special. Gongsun said that she was suitable for living in water. Jiang Ping was only good at water, so don't make any mistakes.

"Fourth Master, I'll go down with you." Zhe Ying happened to come running, seeing this scene, she also began to take off her clothes, "It's good to have someone to take care of you."

Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao felt a little relieved.

Aunt Mei glanced at Jiang Ping, seemed a little hesitant, and whispered, "This is a secret, you can't tell others, if you want to take it with you, you have to take Xiner with you."

Zhan Zhao was amused, and leaned over and said, "Aunt Mei, your Xiner is a landlubber, she sinks when she sees water."

Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao dejectedly, so he had no choice but to say to Aunt Mei, "This is my sworn brother, and he's one of my own."

"Oh!" Aunt Mei understood and nodded, but she still seemed a little bit disappointed, because Bai Yutang had never called her mother until now, so she was probably angry that she lost him back then.

"Let's go." Jiang Ping patted Bai Huahua's chest with sea water, and followed Aunt Mei into the sea, followed by Zhe Ying.

Everyone waited anxiously on the shore, Bai Yutang saw Zhan Zhao looking at him all the time, and asked a little puzzled, "What... are you doing?"

Zhan Zhao suddenly crossed his arms and circled Bai Yutang back and forth.

Bai Yutang was taken aback by him, so he stopped him, "Cat, what are you looking at?"

Zhan Zhao looked at the sky and looked elsewhere, and muttered, "No justice."

"Huh?" Bai Yutang didn't understand, and looked at him blankly.

Zhan Zhao said slowly, "Aunt Mei is not young anymore, although she looks younger, people have come all the way to find you."

Bai Yutang was powerless, "Cat, mother can't bark."

"Didn't you just bark?" Zhan Zhao disagreed.

Bai Yutang touched his nose, as if he was in trouble.

The two were talking, when they saw Lei Qinglang running up from behind, "What happened? Why are there so many people?"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang said heartily, here they come again!Why does Lei Qinglang always appear in places where he shouldn't appear in such a timely manner?

"Where's Cao Xin?" Zhan Zhao asked.

"Oh, he went to the front to help rescue people." Lei Qinglang replied, and saw a few bubbles popping up on the surface of the water... Soon, Jiang Ping and Zhe Ying came up, and let out a long breath.

"God, it's been a long time..." Before Jiang Ping finished speaking, he saw Lei Qinglang was there, so he stopped talking and went ashore to wipe his hair and put on his clothes.

"Where's Aunt Mei?" Zhan Zhao asked Zhe Ying who followed Jiang Ping ashore.

As soon as the words fell, I saw my sister and aunt walking up from the water slowly.She came up by stepping on the spar, as if walking on flat ground, and she has a special physique, and she doesn't breathe.

Lei Qinglang was horrified when he saw it, and with Aunt Mei's pale and thin face, he couldn't help shouting, "Damn it!"

Both Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang frowned, thinking what's the matter, the surprise was so exaggerated.

Jiang Ping was also dissatisfied, "What are you shouting for? Where did the ghost come from in broad daylight?!"

Lei Qinglang knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he stood aside embarrassedly, but he was still very afraid of Aunt Mei.His shout attracted the attention of many people in the Jianghu... Those people stared at Aunt Mei and whispered.

Several of them were members of the He Gang, and from their expressions, they seemed to suspect that Aunt Mei was the one who set fire to the Hailong Gang that night, so they quietly returned to the He Gang's boat.

When something happened at sea, people from all over the world would naturally come... Dong Xiaodie was drinking tea on the boat, when he heard a disciple come to report, saying that there was a strange woman on the empty island, similar to the female ghost who burned the sea dragon gang that day .

The members of the River Gang were all surprised.

Dong Xiaodie got off the boat and saw Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao taking wet Aunt Mei back to the island, planning to let her go to Min Xiuxiu's place to change clothes.

"Fifth Lord, are there any guests on the island?" Dong Xiaodie went up to the first few steps to greet Bai Yutang.

Both Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao knew what they were afraid of. If people suspected that Aunt Mei was the one who set the fire that day, it would probably cause another disturbance.

Dong Xiaodie looked up and down at Aunt Mei.

Aunt Mei instinctively hid behind Bai Yutang. Zhan Zhao was afraid that she would be cold, so he asked one of Min Xiuxiu's maids to take her into the house to change clothes, and pushed Bai Yutang, while he stood outside to deal with Dong Xiaodie, "Dong Brother, why are you here? Could it be that among the people who capsized, there are people from the River Gang?"

Dong Xiaodie laughed dryly, "Brother Zhan, what are you talking about, we are living at sea, how could we be lost in the sea."

"Oh... that's really amazing." Zhan Zhao saw that Bai Yutang had already entered the house with Aunt Mei, and he didn't bother to talk nonsense with Dong Xiaodie. He was about to stroll on the boat with his hands behind his back. Talking about Beihai...he really wanted to go, but he had to go back to Kaifeng Mansion after this case was over.I haven't been back for a long time, I don't know what happened to Mr. Bao.

Seeing that he could not catch up with Bai Yutang again, Dong Xiaodie followed Zhan Zhao, "Master Zhan, do you have a clue about this case?"

Zhan Zhao shook his head, feeling very embarrassed.

"I have a discovery, I don't know if I should say it or not." Dong Xiaodie's words seemed intriguing. "Of course..." Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows, "Brother Dong, it's okay to say, I'm all ears."

……

Putting aside Zhan Zhao playing Tai Chi with Dong Xiaodie at the door, Bai Yutang accompanied Aunt Mei into the courtyard, and she wanted to pull him into the house, but Bai Yutang naturally refused to go, "You change your clothes, I'll wait at the door."

"What are you afraid of? It's mother." Aunt Mei smiled, and Bai Yutang was embarrassed, thinking that he was not interested in watching his mother. Fortunately, Aunt Mei entered inside the screen, and the little girl followed with her mouth covered and snickering, Bai Yutang Tang had no choice but to stand outside the screen, drinking the tea brought by his servants.

After waiting for a while, Bai Yutang asked a maid in charge of guarding, "How did Aunt Mei come out?"

The servant girl was a little embarrassed, "Master Wu, there was a mess on the island just now, I heard that many people died, so everyone went out to save people, we were quite worried, and Aunt Mei was still sleeping, so we closed the door and followed gone."

"You heard someone yelling that many people were killed?" Bai Yutang stretched out his hand and touched his chin lightly. The people on Trapped Sky Island have always been well-managed. It doesn't matter what happens, and they won't shout disturbing words like that.

Not long after, Aunt Mei came out after changing her clothes, Bai Yutang hurriedly asked, "Aunt Mei, who let you out?"

"Him!" Aunt Mei replied briskly.

Bai Yutang frowned, sure enough there were spies on the empty island, and asked, "Who is he?"

"The one who let me out!" Aunt Mei replied.

Bai Yutang felt helpless, "I know, I mean, who let you out?"

"It's the one who let me out!" Aunt Mei replied seriously.

Bai Yutang opened his mouth, and the little maid at the side heard it, rolled her eyes, and leaned over to ask, "Aunt Mei, Fifth Master said, who let you out of the house?"

"Oh..." Aunt Mei nodded, "The person who let me out of the house before!"

"Before?" Bai Yutang was taken aback, when Aunt Mei was rescued, she still had the chain on her hand, so she might have been locked up before.

Nodding secretly, Bai Yutang asked Aunt Mei, "What does that person look like, describe it to me!"

Aunt Mei flinched, she shook her head, and looked around, she seemed scared.

"Aunt Mei?" The little maid asked from the side, "Tell Fifth Master what that person looks like, don't be afraid, no one on our empty island dares to mess around!"

Aunt Mei hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice, "He... is all black, has a ghost face, and can fly, which is amazing!"

When Bai Yutang heard the word "ghost face", he couldn't help but sneered, it was a ghost face again - it seems that to solve this case, finding that ghost face is really crucial.

But this time, Bai Yutang couldn't help wondering, why did he deliberately release Aunt Mei?The ghost-masked man released Aunt Mei once, letting her go to the empty island, and released Aunt Mei the second time, letting people know that she was on the empty island, what kind of mind is there!

……

"What did you say?"

After hearing Dong Xiaodie's words, Zhan Zhao was taken aback, "Really?!"

Dong Xiaodie smiled and nodded, "Master Zhan, disaster is imminent."
