Chapter 58 Liao Zhai (17)
But Lin Ning's mind was wide open, and he thought of the magical creature "regarded as day, closed as night, and thousands of miles long" as an alien civilization, so she decided to go out to sea to have a look. When she came to Fujian, she suddenly Blessed to the soul, I thought of a conjecture that was more likely than alien civilization.
That is Zhu Jiuyin.
It is recorded in "Shan Hai Jing": "Beyond the Northwest Sea, north of Chishui, there is Zhangwei Mountain."There is a god, with a human face and a snake body, but red, with straight eyes and straight eyes, whose eyes are dark, and whose vision is bright.Don't eat, don't sleep, don't rest, the wind and rain are the same.It is Zhu Jiuyin, which is called Candle Dragon. 'And there are also records in other ancient books. Of course, the records about Zhu Jiuyin in each ancient book are different, but it is said that when Zhu Jiuyin opens his eyes, it is like day, and when he closes his eyes, it brings darkness. It was mentioned, but Lin Ning didn't think about Zhu Jiuyin before, because no matter which ancient book, there is no record of Zhu Jiuyin appearing in the South China Sea, let alone Lin Ning thought about all the "Liao Zhai" she knew. Strange Tales, I didn't expect any article to mention Zhu Jiuyin.
However, considering that she has only read part of the original text of "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio", it is understandable that she did not know about it, just as she has never read any article that mentioned her master.After she figured it out, Lin Ning became even more curious. She really wanted to know if it was the legendary Zhu Jiuyin.If so, how did he appear in the South China Sea?If not, then what?
With such curiosity, Lin Ning came to Fujian.
Sure enough, there are still people here who remember the strange thing that the merchant said, and this strange thing happened more than once. Not long after the merchant went ashore, this strange thing still happened one day and night, but this time it was not as bright as last time .Lin Ning carefully asked when the light appeared, and also found out the fleet that carried the merchants out to sea last time, and asked about their sea route. After doing a series of calculations, Lin Ning made some preparations first. After getting into a boat and preserving a batch of food for the pitcher plant, he took it on board, and went out to sea leisurely with one person, one dog and one sword.
The other boatmen on the port who watched shook their heads, thinking that Lin Ning was just joking, but they didn't want to wait for Lin Ning to get on the boat, and the boat flew out like a cloud of arrows without the boatman.
Boatmen: "!!"
It's just that although Lin Ning's team was very chic, after sailing on the vast sea for two days, they found nothing.
Nepenthes lay weakly on the deck, and groaned at Lin Ning who covered his face with a book.
Lin Ning: "What's wrong with eating and catching good ones? You still think about catching ready-made ones to eat? I think you are a hard worker."
Nepenthes: "Wow!"
Lin Ning: "I don't look for trouble when I have nothing to do. I have the spirit of exploration."
Nepenthes turned its butt away and ignored Lin Ning.
Lin Ning glanced at it, and suddenly thought: "Do you eat fish?"
Nepenthes still ignored her.
Lin Ning assumed it agreed, and jumped into the sea to catch a few fish.
As a result, the pitcher plant showed that it was a good dog with integrity and did not eat such a cheap food.
The corner of Lin Ning's mouth twitched and was about to say something when his ears moved suddenly and he heard a faint moan.She stood up from the deck, looked far away from the source of the sound, and saw a small boat. After thinking for a while, Lin Ning used her spiritual power to drive their boat towards the small boat, and then He took out a bottle of fresh water from Qiankun in his sleeve and handed it to the thirsty and hungry middle-aged man on the small boat.
After drinking half a bottle of water, the middle-aged man was completely alive.He looked at Lin Ning cautiously, and saw that she was still as glamorous and beautiful as before in the vast sea. He was afraid that she was not an ordinary person, and seeing that she did not have any malicious intentions, he was slightly relieved.Then he cupped his hands towards Lin Ning: "The villain's surname is Lu, and he is a sea merchant in Jiaozhou. Thank you, Taoist priest, for your rescue. When the villain returns to Jiaozhou, he will surely repay you."
Lin Ning: "Xiaodao picks up the light."
The sea merchant whose full name is Lu Dagui immediately lifted his spirits: "It turns out that it is Daoist Shiguang!" Then he looked at Lin Ning intently, and then he was completely relieved. He had heard that Daoist Shiguang met Lu It's not fair, to eradicate the monsters in Montenegro, I think this kind of person with eyes full of divine water should have that kind of ability.
Then Lu Dagui talked to Lin Ning about his tragic experience.
It turned out that Lu Dagui crossed the sea by boat and wanted to go to Champa (now Vietnam) to do business. He never thought that he encountered a strong wind on the way and was blown to a place called Womei Mountain.Lu Dagui had never heard of this place, but looking at the mountains stretching over there, the trees are green, and there are many caves densely arranged on the cliffs on both sides, like a beehive, and there are faint voices in the caves.Lu Dagui was overjoyed, and was about to go over to ask the local aborigines, but he didn't expect that he had just walked two steps when he saw a figure protruding from one of the beehives.But he saw that the man bared two rows of sharp white teeth that looked like swords and halberds, his eyes were staring like lanterns, and there were scarlet blood stains in his hands.
Lu Dagui immediately lost two of his three souls in fright:
That's not a person, it's a nightshade at all!
Terrified, Lu Dagui ran away, fearing that he would be caught by Yasha and used as food.But he was unfamiliar with the people in that land, and he was very flustered. He only felt that his life was not long, but a young man with a human appearance rescued him and hid him in a cave.
What's more, when Lu Dagui explained that he came from Jiaozhou, the boy actually said that his father was also from Jiaozhou.
When the young man said his father's name was Xu Chang, Lu Dagui was even more delighted. It turned out that this Xu Chang Lu Dagui also knew each other. Courage, invincible in the battle against bandits, has been promoted to lieutenant general.
What surprised Lu Dagui was that the boy who rescued him didn't know what a lieutenant was.
After further questioning, I found out that this young man was not living in this Yasha country as he originally thought, but his mother was a Yasha, and his father Xu Chang was here when he was living here and married his mother. His brother left without saying goodbye.
Lu Dagui: "!!"
Not to mention that Xu Chang went to the country to do as the Romans do, but Lu Dagui absolutely did not want to fall to that level, let alone his parents, wife and children at home, so Lu Dagui begged the young man to help him leave.The young man agreed and hid him in the cave. Lu Dagui hid in the cave for two full months before the north wind came to take him back. The young man hurried over and led him to escape. He sent Yasha who came and went, and gave him a small boat to let him leave as soon as possible, and asked him to bring a letter to his father and brother.
In this way, Lu Dagui finally escaped from the Yaksha country called Womeishan, but in the vast sea, before he came to land, he was almost dying because of thirst and hunger. Fortunately, he met at this time. Lin Ning.
Lu Dagui, who survived the catastrophe, also took out the token he brought back from the Yasha Kingdom, and showed it to Lin Ning clearly.The token was given to him by the young man, and it was one of a string of bony protuberances strung around his neck.
Lin Ning took it over and looked at it, and saw that the bony protrusion was bigger than the tip of a finger, round like a pearl.She sniffed lightly, only to smell the strong smell of the sea, and when she raised her eyes again, she met Shanglu Dagui's slightly entangled eyes.
Lin Ning: "..."
Without explaining anything, she returned the bone protrusion to him.
Lu Dagui smiled sheepishly, "It's normal for the Daoist to be curious. After all, the villain is also a little curious while being afraid of the beast-like Yasha. The villain heard from Brother Xu's youngest son that Womei Mountain is just the home of these Yashas." One of the sub-countries seems to have another Dulong Kingdom, but he has been staying with his mother in Womei Mountain, and has never been to Naluoshizi Poison Dragon Kingdom. By the way, he also has a younger sister, but I don’t know what she looks like. Don't follow their mother."
Lin Ning couldn't help raising her eyebrows, she wasn't surprised at all that the mortal named Xu Chang could have a child with Yasha.After all, this baiji dolphin is not reproductively isolated from mortals, let alone Yaksha, but the offspring all look like Xu Chang as his father, so it is worth exploring more.
Lin Ning then asked Lu Dagui for his voyage route.
Lu Dagui was stunned and said: "Master, why are you so curious about this? Could it be that you want to kill demons?"
Lin Ning was just purely curious, he hadn't seen 'Zhu Jiuyin', and it was better than nothing to go to see Yasha, so he didn't answer Lu Dagui's question directly, but just asked him to talk about the situation when he came out of Womei Mountain, in his heart I compared it with the sea chart in her memory, but no matter how I looked at it, I couldn’t find it on the sea chart. In the end, Lin Ning simply gave up, and said to Lu Dagui in a blink of an eye, “I’ll send you back to Jiaozhou. "
Lu Dagui was overjoyed: "Thank you, Daoist."
Lin Ning didn't personally send Lu Dagui to Jiaozhou, she just cast a formula on Lu Dagui's boat, telling Lu Dagui to sit still, and then the boat was like a galloping arrow, galloping in the sea In less than half an hour, he drove Lu Dagui to Jiaozhou Port, which is more than 600 miles away from here.
Lu Dagui: "Ugh—"
He almost vomited out all his internal organs, but on the bright side, he finally returned to Jiaozhou safely.And he kept his promise, he found Xu Chang after a breath of relief, and only after talking with him did he know how Xu Chang "followed the Romans" back then.
It turned out that after Xu Chang was exiled to Womei Mountain, he also met Yasha head-on.After those yakshas caught him, they tore his clothes, as if they wanted to eat him. Xu Chang was terrified, and quickly took out his dry food that was not taken away by the water. The cooked beef jerky in it made the yakshas very satisfied.
Seeing this, Xu Chang cooked the venison they had been eating raw for the yakshas. With this skill, he escaped from being a food for the yakshas.
Later, a dominatrix fell in love with Xu Chang and took the initiative to make out with him, Xu Chang obeyed, and gave birth to two sons and a daughter with this dominatrix.After waiting for several years, Xu Chang missed his hometown, so he secretly repaired the boat, and took his eldest son Xu Biao back to Jiaozhou secretly by the north wind.
It is worth mentioning that there was another dominatrix who also fell in love with Xu Chang, and wanted to take advantage of the absence of his family's dominatrix to come over and forcefully make out with Xu Chang.When Xu Chang refused, the hag showed a fierce look. Fortunately, his hag came back in time and bit off the hag's ear.After a while, the dominatrix's husband came over, and the dominatrix of Xu Chang's family let her go, but it seemed like she was showing off when she said this, so Xu Chang skipped this paragraph and didn't tell Lu Dagui.
At first, Lu Dagui wanted to sympathize with Xu Chang's sacrifice, but then he thought about who doesn't have a "hagsha" at the bedside, so he put this thought aside, and thought: "I don't know the Taoist priest Shiguang." What's the matter? '
Daoist Shiguang is now confronting a "sea island".
It turned out that after seeing off Dagui, Lin Ning changed the original route and drove in the direction that Lu Dagui came from.During the period, the pitcher plant didn’t know whether it was because it was always facing the vast sea, or because it didn’t work hard to catch insects, so Lin Ning was a little distressed: “Do you want to go to the sea to eat the insects in the sea?”
Nepenthes: "Wow!"
Lin Ning: "...What do you mean why didn't I say it earlier? Let me tell you, you're calling it a slap in the face."
Nepenthes can swim, and even in the vast sea, it can swim well.Lin Ning was not at ease, so he changed back to its original shape and followed it. As a result, the pitcher plant entered the sea, a bit like a wolf entering a flock of sheep. It sniffed everywhere, and even plunged into the coral during the process. in the group.Although Lin Ning usually calls it a little chubby hound, but that is only for its ethnic group. Now in this vast sea, its small body can't even be called a drop in the ocean. Gone among the coral clumps.
Lin Ning: "..."
When he found the bear hound, he had to beat him up. When Lin Ning found the pitcher plant again, the bear hound was rushing towards an island under the sea like a cannonball.
Lin Ning took a closer look, and almost died of fright, he quickly swam over and hugged the pitcher plant before it passed by, holding it together with its four paws that were still digging water, thinking: "You know what that isJust wanted to offend. '
That's not an island under the sea at all, is it?
At this time, "Haixiadao" also turned around, and finally turned its head around, and then suddenly opened its eyes.Lin Ning covered the eyes of the pitcher plant very presciently, and narrowed his eyes a little, but saw that the surrounding sea area was transparently illuminated by the sudden bright light.
At this moment, the pitcher plant knew that it was afraid, and plunged its head into Lin Ning's arms, showing its chubby butt outside, and personally interpreted what it means to "care about the head and ignore the tail".
Lin Ning: "..."
At this time, "Hai Xia Dao" said quietly: "Are you the Dragon King of the East China Sea to pick up this deity?"
Lin Ning also replied slowly: "This is the South China Sea."
"Huh?" "Haixiadao" immediately said, "I said so."
Then he changed his form, from an island under the sea to a snake with a human face.This "human-faced snake body" means that only his head is human-shaped, from the neck down is a snake body, and the hair and snake body are red, stretching in the sea, and his appearance belongs to Xiemei Those who are crazy are still very intimidating at first glance.
With such an iconic appearance, it seems that he is undoubtedly Zhu Jiuyin.
Before Lin Ning could say anything, Zhu Jiuyin lazily said: "No wonder I called that guy Ao Guang here to send a dragon to pick me up, but he never responded." Ao Guang is the Dragon King of the East China Sea.
Lin Ning: "... May I ask where you came from?" According to the records of ancient books, Zhu Jiuyin lived in the extremely cold place in the north, so if Zhu Jiuyin swam from the North Sea to the South China Sea, It is very likely that he is going to pass through the East China Sea, unless he is going around from other directions.
Zhu Jiuyin's tone was still laziness: "Dong Wanggong invited me to Haishi, do you know where Haishi is? If you know, you might as well take me with you." This is really an irrelevant question.
Lin Ning said truthfully, "I don't know."
Zhu Jiuyin asked confidently, "Aren't you a little Jiao?"
Lin Ning: "...I was born in Neihu, this is the first time I have come back to the sea." She hugged the pitcher plant tightly, "Sorry to disturb your sleep, I will leave now."
Zhu Jiuyin: "Wait a minute."
Lin Ning: "?"
Zhu Jiuyin's tone became lazy again: "You just take me to the boundary of the East China Sea."
Lin Ning grasped the essence of it: "Why don't you call the Dragon King of the South China Sea? I think he must know where Haishi is."
But Zhu Jiuyin took it for granted: "His heart is not good, otherwise I have been swimming in his South China Sea for several days, why don't I see him come out to see him?"
Lin Ning: "..."
Lin Ning felt that the Dragon King of the South China Sea was particularly wronged. You must know that Zhu Jiuyin kept calling the Dragon King of the East China Sea's name on his territory, and Zhu Jiuyin was still a great figure in ancient times. How could the Dragon King of the South China Sea appear so rashly before he figured out the deep meaning.
Before Lin Ning could say anything, Zhu Jiuyin said again: "Are you good-natured?" Combined with his evil and maddened face, and the power around him that makes the surrounding fish shy away, how come Hearing these words sounded like Shi Wei, but Lin Ning couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth, feeling that Zhu Jiuyin's halo as a big boss was already on the verge of crumbling. It doesn't prevent him from being a big boss, but he is just a small shrimp in his eyes. Even if Lin Ning has a bad heart, he should be fine.What's more, Lin Ning came to the sea to run after him, and she was also somewhat interested in the sea market that Zhu Jiuyin was talking about, so she had to agree.
Zhu Jiuyin said slowly: "I said that the aquariums in your inner sea are all simple-minded, unlike the aquariums in the four seas, all of them have as many minds as honeycombs. Do you know what a honeycomb is?"
Lin Ning: "..." Why does he feel that the Shui people from the inland are just bumpkins?Do the aquariums still engage in regional discrimination?Lin Ning took a deep breath and exaggerated: "Honeycomb? What is that? I have never heard of it."
Zhu Jiuyin: "I can talk to you."
Lin Ning: "...then I'll leave it to you." She regretted going to sea a little bit.
What Lin Ning didn't know was that immediately after they left the waters of the South China Sea, some shrimp soldiers and crab generals reported the matter to Dragon Palace.Ao Qin, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Prime Minister Gui beside him, "What do you think he meant by this move?"
Prime Minister Gui didn't know: "Why didn't His Majesty Donghai reply you?"
Ao Qin mused, "He's probably worried about Dragon Girl getting married."
As long as the suspicion has not been resolved, the Dragon King of the South China Sea suddenly sighed again.
·
Besides, Lin Ning and the others came to the East China Sea soon, and Zhu Jiuyin called the Dragon King of the East China Sea to guide them.Not long after, more than a dozen warriors surrounded a young man with sword eyebrows and star eyes, and the majestic young man in white rushed to the surface of the water.The young man claimed to be Ao Shuang, the Fifth Prince of the East China Sea, and he was ordered by his father to welcome Zhu Jiuyin to the Dragon Palace.
Zhu Jiuyin lazily said: "I won't go to Dragon Palace, you just take me to Haishi, I have a pact with Dong Wang."
Ao Twin: "...Yes."
Ao Shuang led the guards of the Dragon Palace to lead the way, and after half an hour they arrived above the clouds and mist.Looking at it from a distance, Lin Ning saw the rippling water and clouds in front of him, there are layers of pavilions, and there are various sea ships on the outermost periphery.Looking from her, the boats were densely packed like ants. It seemed that this sea market was unusual, and it looked even bigger than the ghost market in the underworld.
Going forward, after a while, they came to the city.The bricks on the city wall are as long, wide and high as an ordinary adult. The color of the brick wall is like sea water, and there are patterns carved on it, like waves and clouds. Looking at the city tower, it seems to be connected to the sky.
Ao Twin respectfully said: "This is Haishi."
Zhu Jiuyin said "Yes": "You can go." After that, without waiting for Ao Shuang's response, he flew into the city, presumably to find the Eastern Prince who invited him to come.
Ao Shuang rubbed her nose, turned around and asked Lin Ning, "Xiao Wang has heard that His Royal Highness Ninth Prince is unrestrained, and never thought that being famous is worse than meeting."
Lin Ning blinked.
Ao Shuang seemed to sense that his words seemed to be complaining, so she cleared her throat and said, "Since that's the case, Xiao Wang will not hinder you from serving His Highness the Ninth Prince. Just follow along."
Lin Ning was a little speechless: "Actually, I met his old man on the way."
Ao Twin immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "So you are not the attendant of His Highness Ninth Prince, then where did you come from?"
Lin Ning remembered their regional discrimination, and said in a subtle tone: "I come from the Yangtze River." Her territory belongs to the branch of the Yangtze River, so she is right to say so.
Ao Shuang's eyes lit up: "So it's the Shui tribe from the east. I used to only see them at gatherings. I've always envied them to live in the prosperous place of the human race. Speaking of which, our Dragon Palace also came yesterday. A scholar from the east was met by my third elder brother in this sea market. My father liked his poem praising the sea market very much, saying that his talent was not inferior to that of Qu Yuan and Song Dynasty. Jade. I just don't know about you—I forgot to ask you, what's your name?"
Lin Ning said: "Xiao Dao picks up the light."
Ao Twin turned pale with shock: "What!"
Lin Ning: "??"
Ao Twin sized her up carefully, and then exclaimed vigorously: "So you are the one who stopped the flood!"
"My father originally said that there would be a flood in Dongtu, but he never thought about it, but was stopped by Lu Dongbin's apprentice Shiguang. Later, when he found out that you had turned into a dragon, he also said that he would recruit you to the Dragon Palace, so that he could think about you. It’s just that I went to the Heavenly Court to attend a banquet later, and I never mentioned it when I came back. I don’t know what happened, I just heard that the third brother said that the father seems to have met your master, "Ao Twin Five The prince glanced at Lin Ning, and said with deep meaning: "In the Three Realms, your master is also a free and easy character."
He also conveyed "you know what I mean" in his eyes.
Lin Ning: "...It turns out that my master has such a great reputation."
Ao Twin nodded and then nodded again: "Yes, yes. No, I really didn't expect you to worship him as a teacher. No, he was able to accept a talented apprentice like you." He was silent for a few moments Then he continued: "I mean, do you want to come to Dragon Palace? I will recommend you to my father."
Lin Ning: "...that's not necessary." I also know that the Dragon King of the East China Sea will be devastated after meeting her master. Think about it, too. Her master can set her territory hundreds of years in advance. It looks like it's still He didn't intend to put her under the control of the Dragon Clan. As the leader of the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas, the Dragon King of the East China Sea probably felt that he had been humiliated.In this case, she would not go to the Dragon Palace to feel uncomfortable, and if there is a sea market in front of her, she must go in and have a look.
Ao Twin disappointed: "Okay." Then he said unwillingly: "Actually, there is nothing interesting in the sea market, it's just that the sharks from all over the world sell pearls there, but they don't know that the best pearls are in the Dragon Palace."
Lin Ning said: "Then I will go and have a look."
Ao Twin: "..."
At this point Lin Ning bid farewell to Ao Shuang and flew to the city gate.As the name suggests, this sea market is a huge market inside, but the people who come here to buy and sell are not ordinary people.Like the mermaids who came to sell rare treasures, there are also "people" with different looks, the reason why I put quotation marks is because Lin Ning is not sure if they are real human races, because she has not sensed them There is a ghost or ghost or water, but their appearance is hard to describe, just like Lin Ning saw the Yasha described by Lu Dagui.Most of them are naked from the upper body, and the lower body is covered with a leather skirt made of leopard skin or tiger skin. There are dozens of pearls hanging on the neck and a pair of blue wings on the back. So scary.
Lin Ning was thinking that Yasha was so powerful, why the child born with Fan couldn't inherit their appearance at all?Are the genes of the human race so strong?
Lin Ning was still thinking about this problem, and the neglectful pitcher plant finally crawled out of its cage, crawled along Lin Ning's arm to her shoulder, and gave her a "bark".
Lin Ning said without moving his eyebrows: "You were scared at the time, you don't have to quibble anymore, and I won't laugh at you."
Nepenthes: "Hmph."
Lin Ning raised his eyebrows: "You said I was scared too? Your head was stuck in my arms at that time, how did you see it?"
Nepenthes: "..."
It was questioned, and it didn't come out for a while, and finally it collapsed on Lin Ning's shoulder, and it was quite unlovable.
Lin Ning rubbed its dog's head, and walked towards the bustling sea market with the Dragon Yin Sword.After walking a few steps, a few "people" who looked like people but were dressed in rags approached cautiously, and they looked at Lin Ning with lingering fear in their eyes.
Lin Ning: "?" What did she do again?
Those 'people' were hesitant and apprehensive, watching Lin Ning hesitate to speak, Lin Ning was helpless: "What are you going to do? I really don't eat people."
Then, they breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Ning: "..."
One of the 'persons' was urged to come closer, and Lin Ning sounded a bit weird, but she could still understand the language and said: "Dare you ask if you are from China? The people there are very mysterious and strange. Earlier, a Chinese came to our country. He is now appointed as a doctor by the king. He transferred the jewels that the king rewarded him to us. When the sea market opened, he also came with us, but he was arrested yesterday. Dongyang III was taken away, we don't know how he is doing now? Now that I see the nobleman, I dare to come over and ask."
Lin Ning raised his eyebrows slightly, and the 'person' quickly pointed to a 'person' not far away and said: "That is our prime minister, you can talk to the prime minister."
Lin Ning took a look, and saw that the prime minister had two ears facing back, three nostrils, and his eyelashes covered his eyes like curtains, and when he looked at the group of 'people' and looked at the prime minister, his eyes were all twitching. Looking envious, could it be that he is envious that the Prime Minister is not mysterious and weird?
Lin Ning thought for a while and asked, "Why are you afraid of me?"
The 'person' replied cautiously: "In our opinion, the nobleman looks really scary."
Lin Ning: "..." Sure enough, the judgment of beauty and ugliness in this country is the opposite of hers, and I don't know what this country is called?
Lin Ning came back to his senses and asked, "What's the name of the Chinese you're talking about?"
The 'man' bravely said: "Master Ma Ji Ma." He said again: "When Master Ma first came to our village, we were also very afraid of him and thought he was a monster. Later, we found that Master Ma did not come to eat us. Yes, we were not so afraid a little bit, dared to talk to him, and found that he was actually a very nice person. So when we saw you, nobleman, we didn't run away screaming, but came up to greet you. It seems that you and Mr. Ma Just as wide."
Lin Ning: "...the Ma Ji you mentioned, if I guessed correctly, he was invited to the Dragon Palace by the Third Prince of the East China Sea, where he wrote a Fu for the Dragon King, and the Dragon King appreciated him very much."
The 'person' suddenly said happily: "That's good, that's good."
Lin Ning couldn't help smiling, but the 'man' shivered.
Lin Ning: "...What is the name of your country?"
That 'person' replied tremblingly: "Raksha country."
Lin Ning asked curiously: "Don't you think that Ma Ji looks weird like a monster, then how did he become a doctor in your country?" Seeing that their prime ministers look so ferocious, and these villagers look like human beings, but Dressed in rags, Lin Ning made a bold guess. In their country, they comment on official positions based on their looks.Furthermore, even if this is not the case, Ma Ji looks so "weird", under normal circumstances, he should not be favored by the king of the Raksha Kingdom.
The 'person' thought for a while and replied: "In the beginning, Mr. Ma went to the capital, and everyone was afraid." At that time, everyone in the capital closed the door tightly, and only peeked at it through the crack of the door. Ma Ji is still a halberd man in the village who thought of their country. He has been to many countries as an envoy. He may not be afraid of Ma Ji if he has a lot of experience.So Ma Ji went to visit the Jiji Lang, who knew that Ma Ji was from China, so he made him a guest of honor, and then recommended him to the king.Originally, the king wanted to issue an edict to summon Ma Ji, but only the minister said that Ma Ji was too frightening, and he was afraid that he would disturb His Majesty, so the king did not mention it.
Jijilang was very sorry when he found out about it. One day later, when he and Ma Ji were drinking and listening to an opera together, Ma Ji, who used to love to sing operas, dressed up as Zhang Fei, and Jijilang immediately became astonished. Others felt refreshed when they saw it, and recommended Ma Ji one after another.But this time the king summoned Ma Ji, saw his appearance and praised him greatly, made him a doctor, and rewarded him with a lot of gold, silver and jewels.
Later, Ma Ji came to the village where the villagers lived with the gold and silver. When they received him, Ma Ji gave them the gold, silver and jewels and followed them to Haishi.
And in the Raksha country, they are indeed awarded official positions according to their beauty and ugliness, and the villagers in this village were abandoned by their parents at birth because they were too "ugly".
After Lin Ning listened, she deeply felt that her three views had also changed, but the other information mentioned in the words of the villagers of the Raksha State made Lin Ning very interested. In addition to the arrival of people, many gods and men will also come to play (this can be seen from the fact that the Eastern Prince invited Zhu Jiuyin to come), and the other four countries and twelve countries come here to do business.The twelve kingdoms in four directions naturally refer to countries like the Raksha country and the poisonous dragon country where Yasha is located. For now, Lin Ning only knows about these two countries. She is very curious about the other ten countries. I just don’t know what kind of refreshing folk customs and customs these ten countries have.
Lin Ning said goodbye to the villagers of Raksha Country after thinking this way, and continued walking towards the sea market.Nepenthes came alive, "Wow woof."
Lin Ning "tsk": "You said you were a handsome dog, didn't you? But have you ever thought about your current body shape, you are a giant dog in your group? Or very Huge huge."
The pitcher plant collapsed back with a "slap", and it seemed that Lin Ning's words had successfully pierced its heart.
Lin Ning was a little embarrassed. She looked over and saw a stall selling elixir, so she walked over.Before I got there, I felt a icy cold, and looking at the items here, even the stall owner was cold, maybe they came from Beihai?While speculating, Lin Ning selected a frost silkworm and pushed the head of the pitcher plant: "Do you want to eat this?" It's like a popsicle.
Nepenthes: "Wow!"
Lin Ning asked the stall owner how to sell it.
The stall owner is an extremely handsome mermaid, and he said with a chill in his mouth, "Only exchange for fire."
Lin Ning silently took out a quail fire talisman and demonstrated it.This quail fire talisman was borrowed from Suzaku's power, and after the quail fire talisman made by Lin Ning was ignited, the effect was equivalent to releasing a big fireball, and it could last for several minutes.
Merman: "Great kindness!"
What else could Lin Ning say, all she could do was pass the quail fire talisman silently, and just as she was about to see if there was anything else she wanted to exchange, there was a roar from the gate of the city: "Shiguang——"
That is Zhu Jiuyin.
It is recorded in "Shan Hai Jing": "Beyond the Northwest Sea, north of Chishui, there is Zhangwei Mountain."There is a god, with a human face and a snake body, but red, with straight eyes and straight eyes, whose eyes are dark, and whose vision is bright.Don't eat, don't sleep, don't rest, the wind and rain are the same.It is Zhu Jiuyin, which is called Candle Dragon. 'And there are also records in other ancient books. Of course, the records about Zhu Jiuyin in each ancient book are different, but it is said that when Zhu Jiuyin opens his eyes, it is like day, and when he closes his eyes, it brings darkness. It was mentioned, but Lin Ning didn't think about Zhu Jiuyin before, because no matter which ancient book, there is no record of Zhu Jiuyin appearing in the South China Sea, let alone Lin Ning thought about all the "Liao Zhai" she knew. Strange Tales, I didn't expect any article to mention Zhu Jiuyin.
However, considering that she has only read part of the original text of "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio", it is understandable that she did not know about it, just as she has never read any article that mentioned her master.After she figured it out, Lin Ning became even more curious. She really wanted to know if it was the legendary Zhu Jiuyin.If so, how did he appear in the South China Sea?If not, then what?
With such curiosity, Lin Ning came to Fujian.
Sure enough, there are still people here who remember the strange thing that the merchant said, and this strange thing happened more than once. Not long after the merchant went ashore, this strange thing still happened one day and night, but this time it was not as bright as last time .Lin Ning carefully asked when the light appeared, and also found out the fleet that carried the merchants out to sea last time, and asked about their sea route. After doing a series of calculations, Lin Ning made some preparations first. After getting into a boat and preserving a batch of food for the pitcher plant, he took it on board, and went out to sea leisurely with one person, one dog and one sword.
The other boatmen on the port who watched shook their heads, thinking that Lin Ning was just joking, but they didn't want to wait for Lin Ning to get on the boat, and the boat flew out like a cloud of arrows without the boatman.
Boatmen: "!!"
It's just that although Lin Ning's team was very chic, after sailing on the vast sea for two days, they found nothing.
Nepenthes lay weakly on the deck, and groaned at Lin Ning who covered his face with a book.
Lin Ning: "What's wrong with eating and catching good ones? You still think about catching ready-made ones to eat? I think you are a hard worker."
Nepenthes: "Wow!"
Lin Ning: "I don't look for trouble when I have nothing to do. I have the spirit of exploration."
Nepenthes turned its butt away and ignored Lin Ning.
Lin Ning glanced at it, and suddenly thought: "Do you eat fish?"
Nepenthes still ignored her.
Lin Ning assumed it agreed, and jumped into the sea to catch a few fish.
As a result, the pitcher plant showed that it was a good dog with integrity and did not eat such a cheap food.
The corner of Lin Ning's mouth twitched and was about to say something when his ears moved suddenly and he heard a faint moan.She stood up from the deck, looked far away from the source of the sound, and saw a small boat. After thinking for a while, Lin Ning used her spiritual power to drive their boat towards the small boat, and then He took out a bottle of fresh water from Qiankun in his sleeve and handed it to the thirsty and hungry middle-aged man on the small boat.
After drinking half a bottle of water, the middle-aged man was completely alive.He looked at Lin Ning cautiously, and saw that she was still as glamorous and beautiful as before in the vast sea. He was afraid that she was not an ordinary person, and seeing that she did not have any malicious intentions, he was slightly relieved.Then he cupped his hands towards Lin Ning: "The villain's surname is Lu, and he is a sea merchant in Jiaozhou. Thank you, Taoist priest, for your rescue. When the villain returns to Jiaozhou, he will surely repay you."
Lin Ning: "Xiaodao picks up the light."
The sea merchant whose full name is Lu Dagui immediately lifted his spirits: "It turns out that it is Daoist Shiguang!" Then he looked at Lin Ning intently, and then he was completely relieved. He had heard that Daoist Shiguang met Lu It's not fair, to eradicate the monsters in Montenegro, I think this kind of person with eyes full of divine water should have that kind of ability.
Then Lu Dagui talked to Lin Ning about his tragic experience.
It turned out that Lu Dagui crossed the sea by boat and wanted to go to Champa (now Vietnam) to do business. He never thought that he encountered a strong wind on the way and was blown to a place called Womei Mountain.Lu Dagui had never heard of this place, but looking at the mountains stretching over there, the trees are green, and there are many caves densely arranged on the cliffs on both sides, like a beehive, and there are faint voices in the caves.Lu Dagui was overjoyed, and was about to go over to ask the local aborigines, but he didn't expect that he had just walked two steps when he saw a figure protruding from one of the beehives.But he saw that the man bared two rows of sharp white teeth that looked like swords and halberds, his eyes were staring like lanterns, and there were scarlet blood stains in his hands.
Lu Dagui immediately lost two of his three souls in fright:
That's not a person, it's a nightshade at all!
Terrified, Lu Dagui ran away, fearing that he would be caught by Yasha and used as food.But he was unfamiliar with the people in that land, and he was very flustered. He only felt that his life was not long, but a young man with a human appearance rescued him and hid him in a cave.
What's more, when Lu Dagui explained that he came from Jiaozhou, the boy actually said that his father was also from Jiaozhou.
When the young man said his father's name was Xu Chang, Lu Dagui was even more delighted. It turned out that this Xu Chang Lu Dagui also knew each other. Courage, invincible in the battle against bandits, has been promoted to lieutenant general.
What surprised Lu Dagui was that the boy who rescued him didn't know what a lieutenant was.
After further questioning, I found out that this young man was not living in this Yasha country as he originally thought, but his mother was a Yasha, and his father Xu Chang was here when he was living here and married his mother. His brother left without saying goodbye.
Lu Dagui: "!!"
Not to mention that Xu Chang went to the country to do as the Romans do, but Lu Dagui absolutely did not want to fall to that level, let alone his parents, wife and children at home, so Lu Dagui begged the young man to help him leave.The young man agreed and hid him in the cave. Lu Dagui hid in the cave for two full months before the north wind came to take him back. The young man hurried over and led him to escape. He sent Yasha who came and went, and gave him a small boat to let him leave as soon as possible, and asked him to bring a letter to his father and brother.
In this way, Lu Dagui finally escaped from the Yaksha country called Womeishan, but in the vast sea, before he came to land, he was almost dying because of thirst and hunger. Fortunately, he met at this time. Lin Ning.
Lu Dagui, who survived the catastrophe, also took out the token he brought back from the Yasha Kingdom, and showed it to Lin Ning clearly.The token was given to him by the young man, and it was one of a string of bony protuberances strung around his neck.
Lin Ning took it over and looked at it, and saw that the bony protrusion was bigger than the tip of a finger, round like a pearl.She sniffed lightly, only to smell the strong smell of the sea, and when she raised her eyes again, she met Shanglu Dagui's slightly entangled eyes.
Lin Ning: "..."
Without explaining anything, she returned the bone protrusion to him.
Lu Dagui smiled sheepishly, "It's normal for the Daoist to be curious. After all, the villain is also a little curious while being afraid of the beast-like Yasha. The villain heard from Brother Xu's youngest son that Womei Mountain is just the home of these Yashas." One of the sub-countries seems to have another Dulong Kingdom, but he has been staying with his mother in Womei Mountain, and has never been to Naluoshizi Poison Dragon Kingdom. By the way, he also has a younger sister, but I don’t know what she looks like. Don't follow their mother."
Lin Ning couldn't help raising her eyebrows, she wasn't surprised at all that the mortal named Xu Chang could have a child with Yasha.After all, this baiji dolphin is not reproductively isolated from mortals, let alone Yaksha, but the offspring all look like Xu Chang as his father, so it is worth exploring more.
Lin Ning then asked Lu Dagui for his voyage route.
Lu Dagui was stunned and said: "Master, why are you so curious about this? Could it be that you want to kill demons?"
Lin Ning was just purely curious, he hadn't seen 'Zhu Jiuyin', and it was better than nothing to go to see Yasha, so he didn't answer Lu Dagui's question directly, but just asked him to talk about the situation when he came out of Womei Mountain, in his heart I compared it with the sea chart in her memory, but no matter how I looked at it, I couldn’t find it on the sea chart. In the end, Lin Ning simply gave up, and said to Lu Dagui in a blink of an eye, “I’ll send you back to Jiaozhou. "
Lu Dagui was overjoyed: "Thank you, Daoist."
Lin Ning didn't personally send Lu Dagui to Jiaozhou, she just cast a formula on Lu Dagui's boat, telling Lu Dagui to sit still, and then the boat was like a galloping arrow, galloping in the sea In less than half an hour, he drove Lu Dagui to Jiaozhou Port, which is more than 600 miles away from here.
Lu Dagui: "Ugh—"
He almost vomited out all his internal organs, but on the bright side, he finally returned to Jiaozhou safely.And he kept his promise, he found Xu Chang after a breath of relief, and only after talking with him did he know how Xu Chang "followed the Romans" back then.
It turned out that after Xu Chang was exiled to Womei Mountain, he also met Yasha head-on.After those yakshas caught him, they tore his clothes, as if they wanted to eat him. Xu Chang was terrified, and quickly took out his dry food that was not taken away by the water. The cooked beef jerky in it made the yakshas very satisfied.
Seeing this, Xu Chang cooked the venison they had been eating raw for the yakshas. With this skill, he escaped from being a food for the yakshas.
Later, a dominatrix fell in love with Xu Chang and took the initiative to make out with him, Xu Chang obeyed, and gave birth to two sons and a daughter with this dominatrix.After waiting for several years, Xu Chang missed his hometown, so he secretly repaired the boat, and took his eldest son Xu Biao back to Jiaozhou secretly by the north wind.
It is worth mentioning that there was another dominatrix who also fell in love with Xu Chang, and wanted to take advantage of the absence of his family's dominatrix to come over and forcefully make out with Xu Chang.When Xu Chang refused, the hag showed a fierce look. Fortunately, his hag came back in time and bit off the hag's ear.After a while, the dominatrix's husband came over, and the dominatrix of Xu Chang's family let her go, but it seemed like she was showing off when she said this, so Xu Chang skipped this paragraph and didn't tell Lu Dagui.
At first, Lu Dagui wanted to sympathize with Xu Chang's sacrifice, but then he thought about who doesn't have a "hagsha" at the bedside, so he put this thought aside, and thought: "I don't know the Taoist priest Shiguang." What's the matter? '
Daoist Shiguang is now confronting a "sea island".
It turned out that after seeing off Dagui, Lin Ning changed the original route and drove in the direction that Lu Dagui came from.During the period, the pitcher plant didn’t know whether it was because it was always facing the vast sea, or because it didn’t work hard to catch insects, so Lin Ning was a little distressed: “Do you want to go to the sea to eat the insects in the sea?”
Nepenthes: "Wow!"
Lin Ning: "...What do you mean why didn't I say it earlier? Let me tell you, you're calling it a slap in the face."
Nepenthes can swim, and even in the vast sea, it can swim well.Lin Ning was not at ease, so he changed back to its original shape and followed it. As a result, the pitcher plant entered the sea, a bit like a wolf entering a flock of sheep. It sniffed everywhere, and even plunged into the coral during the process. in the group.Although Lin Ning usually calls it a little chubby hound, but that is only for its ethnic group. Now in this vast sea, its small body can't even be called a drop in the ocean. Gone among the coral clumps.
Lin Ning: "..."
When he found the bear hound, he had to beat him up. When Lin Ning found the pitcher plant again, the bear hound was rushing towards an island under the sea like a cannonball.
Lin Ning took a closer look, and almost died of fright, he quickly swam over and hugged the pitcher plant before it passed by, holding it together with its four paws that were still digging water, thinking: "You know what that isJust wanted to offend. '
That's not an island under the sea at all, is it?
At this time, "Haixiadao" also turned around, and finally turned its head around, and then suddenly opened its eyes.Lin Ning covered the eyes of the pitcher plant very presciently, and narrowed his eyes a little, but saw that the surrounding sea area was transparently illuminated by the sudden bright light.
At this moment, the pitcher plant knew that it was afraid, and plunged its head into Lin Ning's arms, showing its chubby butt outside, and personally interpreted what it means to "care about the head and ignore the tail".
Lin Ning: "..."
At this time, "Hai Xia Dao" said quietly: "Are you the Dragon King of the East China Sea to pick up this deity?"
Lin Ning also replied slowly: "This is the South China Sea."
"Huh?" "Haixiadao" immediately said, "I said so."
Then he changed his form, from an island under the sea to a snake with a human face.This "human-faced snake body" means that only his head is human-shaped, from the neck down is a snake body, and the hair and snake body are red, stretching in the sea, and his appearance belongs to Xiemei Those who are crazy are still very intimidating at first glance.
With such an iconic appearance, it seems that he is undoubtedly Zhu Jiuyin.
Before Lin Ning could say anything, Zhu Jiuyin lazily said: "No wonder I called that guy Ao Guang here to send a dragon to pick me up, but he never responded." Ao Guang is the Dragon King of the East China Sea.
Lin Ning: "... May I ask where you came from?" According to the records of ancient books, Zhu Jiuyin lived in the extremely cold place in the north, so if Zhu Jiuyin swam from the North Sea to the South China Sea, It is very likely that he is going to pass through the East China Sea, unless he is going around from other directions.
Zhu Jiuyin's tone was still laziness: "Dong Wanggong invited me to Haishi, do you know where Haishi is? If you know, you might as well take me with you." This is really an irrelevant question.
Lin Ning said truthfully, "I don't know."
Zhu Jiuyin asked confidently, "Aren't you a little Jiao?"
Lin Ning: "...I was born in Neihu, this is the first time I have come back to the sea." She hugged the pitcher plant tightly, "Sorry to disturb your sleep, I will leave now."
Zhu Jiuyin: "Wait a minute."
Lin Ning: "?"
Zhu Jiuyin's tone became lazy again: "You just take me to the boundary of the East China Sea."
Lin Ning grasped the essence of it: "Why don't you call the Dragon King of the South China Sea? I think he must know where Haishi is."
But Zhu Jiuyin took it for granted: "His heart is not good, otherwise I have been swimming in his South China Sea for several days, why don't I see him come out to see him?"
Lin Ning: "..."
Lin Ning felt that the Dragon King of the South China Sea was particularly wronged. You must know that Zhu Jiuyin kept calling the Dragon King of the East China Sea's name on his territory, and Zhu Jiuyin was still a great figure in ancient times. How could the Dragon King of the South China Sea appear so rashly before he figured out the deep meaning.
Before Lin Ning could say anything, Zhu Jiuyin said again: "Are you good-natured?" Combined with his evil and maddened face, and the power around him that makes the surrounding fish shy away, how come Hearing these words sounded like Shi Wei, but Lin Ning couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth, feeling that Zhu Jiuyin's halo as a big boss was already on the verge of crumbling. It doesn't prevent him from being a big boss, but he is just a small shrimp in his eyes. Even if Lin Ning has a bad heart, he should be fine.What's more, Lin Ning came to the sea to run after him, and she was also somewhat interested in the sea market that Zhu Jiuyin was talking about, so she had to agree.
Zhu Jiuyin said slowly: "I said that the aquariums in your inner sea are all simple-minded, unlike the aquariums in the four seas, all of them have as many minds as honeycombs. Do you know what a honeycomb is?"
Lin Ning: "..." Why does he feel that the Shui people from the inland are just bumpkins?Do the aquariums still engage in regional discrimination?Lin Ning took a deep breath and exaggerated: "Honeycomb? What is that? I have never heard of it."
Zhu Jiuyin: "I can talk to you."
Lin Ning: "...then I'll leave it to you." She regretted going to sea a little bit.
What Lin Ning didn't know was that immediately after they left the waters of the South China Sea, some shrimp soldiers and crab generals reported the matter to Dragon Palace.Ao Qin, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Prime Minister Gui beside him, "What do you think he meant by this move?"
Prime Minister Gui didn't know: "Why didn't His Majesty Donghai reply you?"
Ao Qin mused, "He's probably worried about Dragon Girl getting married."
As long as the suspicion has not been resolved, the Dragon King of the South China Sea suddenly sighed again.
·
Besides, Lin Ning and the others came to the East China Sea soon, and Zhu Jiuyin called the Dragon King of the East China Sea to guide them.Not long after, more than a dozen warriors surrounded a young man with sword eyebrows and star eyes, and the majestic young man in white rushed to the surface of the water.The young man claimed to be Ao Shuang, the Fifth Prince of the East China Sea, and he was ordered by his father to welcome Zhu Jiuyin to the Dragon Palace.
Zhu Jiuyin lazily said: "I won't go to Dragon Palace, you just take me to Haishi, I have a pact with Dong Wang."
Ao Twin: "...Yes."
Ao Shuang led the guards of the Dragon Palace to lead the way, and after half an hour they arrived above the clouds and mist.Looking at it from a distance, Lin Ning saw the rippling water and clouds in front of him, there are layers of pavilions, and there are various sea ships on the outermost periphery.Looking from her, the boats were densely packed like ants. It seemed that this sea market was unusual, and it looked even bigger than the ghost market in the underworld.
Going forward, after a while, they came to the city.The bricks on the city wall are as long, wide and high as an ordinary adult. The color of the brick wall is like sea water, and there are patterns carved on it, like waves and clouds. Looking at the city tower, it seems to be connected to the sky.
Ao Twin respectfully said: "This is Haishi."
Zhu Jiuyin said "Yes": "You can go." After that, without waiting for Ao Shuang's response, he flew into the city, presumably to find the Eastern Prince who invited him to come.
Ao Shuang rubbed her nose, turned around and asked Lin Ning, "Xiao Wang has heard that His Royal Highness Ninth Prince is unrestrained, and never thought that being famous is worse than meeting."
Lin Ning blinked.
Ao Shuang seemed to sense that his words seemed to be complaining, so she cleared her throat and said, "Since that's the case, Xiao Wang will not hinder you from serving His Highness the Ninth Prince. Just follow along."
Lin Ning was a little speechless: "Actually, I met his old man on the way."
Ao Twin immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "So you are not the attendant of His Highness Ninth Prince, then where did you come from?"
Lin Ning remembered their regional discrimination, and said in a subtle tone: "I come from the Yangtze River." Her territory belongs to the branch of the Yangtze River, so she is right to say so.
Ao Shuang's eyes lit up: "So it's the Shui tribe from the east. I used to only see them at gatherings. I've always envied them to live in the prosperous place of the human race. Speaking of which, our Dragon Palace also came yesterday. A scholar from the east was met by my third elder brother in this sea market. My father liked his poem praising the sea market very much, saying that his talent was not inferior to that of Qu Yuan and Song Dynasty. Jade. I just don't know about you—I forgot to ask you, what's your name?"
Lin Ning said: "Xiao Dao picks up the light."
Ao Twin turned pale with shock: "What!"
Lin Ning: "??"
Ao Twin sized her up carefully, and then exclaimed vigorously: "So you are the one who stopped the flood!"
"My father originally said that there would be a flood in Dongtu, but he never thought about it, but was stopped by Lu Dongbin's apprentice Shiguang. Later, when he found out that you had turned into a dragon, he also said that he would recruit you to the Dragon Palace, so that he could think about you. It’s just that I went to the Heavenly Court to attend a banquet later, and I never mentioned it when I came back. I don’t know what happened, I just heard that the third brother said that the father seems to have met your master, "Ao Twin Five The prince glanced at Lin Ning, and said with deep meaning: "In the Three Realms, your master is also a free and easy character."
He also conveyed "you know what I mean" in his eyes.
Lin Ning: "...It turns out that my master has such a great reputation."
Ao Twin nodded and then nodded again: "Yes, yes. No, I really didn't expect you to worship him as a teacher. No, he was able to accept a talented apprentice like you." He was silent for a few moments Then he continued: "I mean, do you want to come to Dragon Palace? I will recommend you to my father."
Lin Ning: "...that's not necessary." I also know that the Dragon King of the East China Sea will be devastated after meeting her master. Think about it, too. Her master can set her territory hundreds of years in advance. It looks like it's still He didn't intend to put her under the control of the Dragon Clan. As the leader of the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas, the Dragon King of the East China Sea probably felt that he had been humiliated.In this case, she would not go to the Dragon Palace to feel uncomfortable, and if there is a sea market in front of her, she must go in and have a look.
Ao Twin disappointed: "Okay." Then he said unwillingly: "Actually, there is nothing interesting in the sea market, it's just that the sharks from all over the world sell pearls there, but they don't know that the best pearls are in the Dragon Palace."
Lin Ning said: "Then I will go and have a look."
Ao Twin: "..."
At this point Lin Ning bid farewell to Ao Shuang and flew to the city gate.As the name suggests, this sea market is a huge market inside, but the people who come here to buy and sell are not ordinary people.Like the mermaids who came to sell rare treasures, there are also "people" with different looks, the reason why I put quotation marks is because Lin Ning is not sure if they are real human races, because she has not sensed them There is a ghost or ghost or water, but their appearance is hard to describe, just like Lin Ning saw the Yasha described by Lu Dagui.Most of them are naked from the upper body, and the lower body is covered with a leather skirt made of leopard skin or tiger skin. There are dozens of pearls hanging on the neck and a pair of blue wings on the back. So scary.
Lin Ning was thinking that Yasha was so powerful, why the child born with Fan couldn't inherit their appearance at all?Are the genes of the human race so strong?
Lin Ning was still thinking about this problem, and the neglectful pitcher plant finally crawled out of its cage, crawled along Lin Ning's arm to her shoulder, and gave her a "bark".
Lin Ning said without moving his eyebrows: "You were scared at the time, you don't have to quibble anymore, and I won't laugh at you."
Nepenthes: "Hmph."
Lin Ning raised his eyebrows: "You said I was scared too? Your head was stuck in my arms at that time, how did you see it?"
Nepenthes: "..."
It was questioned, and it didn't come out for a while, and finally it collapsed on Lin Ning's shoulder, and it was quite unlovable.
Lin Ning rubbed its dog's head, and walked towards the bustling sea market with the Dragon Yin Sword.After walking a few steps, a few "people" who looked like people but were dressed in rags approached cautiously, and they looked at Lin Ning with lingering fear in their eyes.
Lin Ning: "?" What did she do again?
Those 'people' were hesitant and apprehensive, watching Lin Ning hesitate to speak, Lin Ning was helpless: "What are you going to do? I really don't eat people."
Then, they breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Ning: "..."
One of the 'persons' was urged to come closer, and Lin Ning sounded a bit weird, but she could still understand the language and said: "Dare you ask if you are from China? The people there are very mysterious and strange. Earlier, a Chinese came to our country. He is now appointed as a doctor by the king. He transferred the jewels that the king rewarded him to us. When the sea market opened, he also came with us, but he was arrested yesterday. Dongyang III was taken away, we don't know how he is doing now? Now that I see the nobleman, I dare to come over and ask."
Lin Ning raised his eyebrows slightly, and the 'person' quickly pointed to a 'person' not far away and said: "That is our prime minister, you can talk to the prime minister."
Lin Ning took a look, and saw that the prime minister had two ears facing back, three nostrils, and his eyelashes covered his eyes like curtains, and when he looked at the group of 'people' and looked at the prime minister, his eyes were all twitching. Looking envious, could it be that he is envious that the Prime Minister is not mysterious and weird?
Lin Ning thought for a while and asked, "Why are you afraid of me?"
The 'person' replied cautiously: "In our opinion, the nobleman looks really scary."
Lin Ning: "..." Sure enough, the judgment of beauty and ugliness in this country is the opposite of hers, and I don't know what this country is called?
Lin Ning came back to his senses and asked, "What's the name of the Chinese you're talking about?"
The 'man' bravely said: "Master Ma Ji Ma." He said again: "When Master Ma first came to our village, we were also very afraid of him and thought he was a monster. Later, we found that Master Ma did not come to eat us. Yes, we were not so afraid a little bit, dared to talk to him, and found that he was actually a very nice person. So when we saw you, nobleman, we didn't run away screaming, but came up to greet you. It seems that you and Mr. Ma Just as wide."
Lin Ning: "...the Ma Ji you mentioned, if I guessed correctly, he was invited to the Dragon Palace by the Third Prince of the East China Sea, where he wrote a Fu for the Dragon King, and the Dragon King appreciated him very much."
The 'person' suddenly said happily: "That's good, that's good."
Lin Ning couldn't help smiling, but the 'man' shivered.
Lin Ning: "...What is the name of your country?"
That 'person' replied tremblingly: "Raksha country."
Lin Ning asked curiously: "Don't you think that Ma Ji looks weird like a monster, then how did he become a doctor in your country?" Seeing that their prime ministers look so ferocious, and these villagers look like human beings, but Dressed in rags, Lin Ning made a bold guess. In their country, they comment on official positions based on their looks.Furthermore, even if this is not the case, Ma Ji looks so "weird", under normal circumstances, he should not be favored by the king of the Raksha Kingdom.
The 'person' thought for a while and replied: "In the beginning, Mr. Ma went to the capital, and everyone was afraid." At that time, everyone in the capital closed the door tightly, and only peeked at it through the crack of the door. Ma Ji is still a halberd man in the village who thought of their country. He has been to many countries as an envoy. He may not be afraid of Ma Ji if he has a lot of experience.So Ma Ji went to visit the Jiji Lang, who knew that Ma Ji was from China, so he made him a guest of honor, and then recommended him to the king.Originally, the king wanted to issue an edict to summon Ma Ji, but only the minister said that Ma Ji was too frightening, and he was afraid that he would disturb His Majesty, so the king did not mention it.
Jijilang was very sorry when he found out about it. One day later, when he and Ma Ji were drinking and listening to an opera together, Ma Ji, who used to love to sing operas, dressed up as Zhang Fei, and Jijilang immediately became astonished. Others felt refreshed when they saw it, and recommended Ma Ji one after another.But this time the king summoned Ma Ji, saw his appearance and praised him greatly, made him a doctor, and rewarded him with a lot of gold, silver and jewels.
Later, Ma Ji came to the village where the villagers lived with the gold and silver. When they received him, Ma Ji gave them the gold, silver and jewels and followed them to Haishi.
And in the Raksha country, they are indeed awarded official positions according to their beauty and ugliness, and the villagers in this village were abandoned by their parents at birth because they were too "ugly".
After Lin Ning listened, she deeply felt that her three views had also changed, but the other information mentioned in the words of the villagers of the Raksha State made Lin Ning very interested. In addition to the arrival of people, many gods and men will also come to play (this can be seen from the fact that the Eastern Prince invited Zhu Jiuyin to come), and the other four countries and twelve countries come here to do business.The twelve kingdoms in four directions naturally refer to countries like the Raksha country and the poisonous dragon country where Yasha is located. For now, Lin Ning only knows about these two countries. She is very curious about the other ten countries. I just don’t know what kind of refreshing folk customs and customs these ten countries have.
Lin Ning said goodbye to the villagers of Raksha Country after thinking this way, and continued walking towards the sea market.Nepenthes came alive, "Wow woof."
Lin Ning "tsk": "You said you were a handsome dog, didn't you? But have you ever thought about your current body shape, you are a giant dog in your group? Or very Huge huge."
The pitcher plant collapsed back with a "slap", and it seemed that Lin Ning's words had successfully pierced its heart.
Lin Ning was a little embarrassed. She looked over and saw a stall selling elixir, so she walked over.Before I got there, I felt a icy cold, and looking at the items here, even the stall owner was cold, maybe they came from Beihai?While speculating, Lin Ning selected a frost silkworm and pushed the head of the pitcher plant: "Do you want to eat this?" It's like a popsicle.
Nepenthes: "Wow!"
Lin Ning asked the stall owner how to sell it.
The stall owner is an extremely handsome mermaid, and he said with a chill in his mouth, "Only exchange for fire."
Lin Ning silently took out a quail fire talisman and demonstrated it.This quail fire talisman was borrowed from Suzaku's power, and after the quail fire talisman made by Lin Ning was ignited, the effect was equivalent to releasing a big fireball, and it could last for several minutes.
Merman: "Great kindness!"
What else could Lin Ning say, all she could do was pass the quail fire talisman silently, and just as she was about to see if there was anything else she wanted to exchange, there was a roar from the gate of the city: "Shiguang——"
