Because in this prosperous and lively Nanhai City, there are many strangers who are even more peculiar than demon cultivators who are incomplete in transformation and still have traces of beasts.
A half-murloc with fins, scales, and a fish head...
A merman with a beautiful face, but a weak and pale figure...
A feathered man with wings on his back...
The people of the fire-weary country who are dark in body and look like apes, but can breathe flames from their mouths...
With wings on his back and a beak like a bird's beak...
Three Chinese people with three heads and looking left and right...
Lu Heng was amazed by the different types of aliens in Nanhai City, and was filled with emotion.
There are so many different types of people that can only be seen in some fantasy movies in the past life.
But in this South Sea City, there are aliens everywhere. Being in it, all kinds of anomalies that he saw before his eyes gave Lu Heng a real sense of being in a strange world.
Although there were many strange beasts seen in the north before, the human city was not much different from the so-called ancient times.
Now that he arrived at Nanhai City, Lu Heng was shocked to realize that there were so many aliens in this world.
He couldn't help but sigh with emotion, thinking that if Sun Yan came to Nanhai City and saw the aliens all over the place, he might be so excited that he would go mad.
However, the monkey head is still practicing in Hanyu Mountain to watch the house. Judging from the progress of the monkey head's practice, if there is no chance, if he wants to go down the mountain and join the world, I am afraid it will take a long time.
After all, around Lu Heng, Sun Yan, who had no great chance or tenacity, looked really ordinary.
Chapter 143 Rumors of the South China Sea
After entering South Sea City, Lu Heng and Xiao Ai went to the post in front of the Fire Temple to register.
When he left Fushan City before, Wu Ji gave him a pass token, which would allow Lu Heng to travel unimpeded in Huotong.
Huo Feng, on the other hand, carried the head of the water beast killed by Xiao Ai and went to the Fire Temple to collect the bounty.
This Nanhai City is prosperous and lively, and the station occupies a very wide area. After Lu Heng took out the access token given by the Fushan City Witch Festival, he was led to a secluded small courtyard and enjoyed the treatment of a distinguished guest.
As for the Wu Zhu in Nanhai City, Lu Heng did not plan to visit.
After Huo Feng receives the bounty, he will go to the port to find a ship that goes out to sea, go out to sea as soon as possible, and rush to attend the rare and precious meeting of the South China Sea Merman Kingdom.
Now that the beginning of winter has passed, the Rare and Treasures Conference of the Merman Kingdom is about to be held. Lu Heng and the others didn't want to delay any longer.
As for the bustling and bustling Nanhai City, I can only appreciate it slowly when I return.
And the reward for receiving it was smooth sailing. After Huo Feng carried the head of the evil beast into the Fire Temple, he quickly got the reward of the evil beast.
But when Huo Feng came back, he brought some not-so-good news.
"Lord Wolf God!"
As soon as he stepped into the small courtyard arranged by the post office, Huo Feng said excitedly, "I have already contacted the ship that will go to sea, and I will be able to go to sea tomorrow morning. It's just... "
"Just?" Lu Heng, who was teaching Xiao Ai the water control technique, raised his head in surprise and asked, "Just what?"
Huo Feng sighed and said, "There has been trouble in the South China Sea recently, and the boatmen are reluctant to go to sea. Therefore, the juniors can only find an empty boat by renting and buying half, and the juniors will take the helm."
Huo Feng's story made Lu Heng a little surprised, "You can even drive a sea boat?"
Huo Feng smiled and scratched his head, saying, "I understand a little... I understand a little..."
Lu Heng shook his head, and was too lazy to complain about this Yunmen disciple's many almighty abilities.
He asked, "What is the so-called turmoil? Isn't there a lot of ship caravans going to sea in this South Sea City? Why is there no one who dares to go to sea now?"
Huo Feng explained, "It's not that no one dares to go out to sea. The large caravan ships are basically unaffected and their itinerary remains the same. It's just that those idle small households have no cultivator protection and are unwilling to go to sea, so they can't hire anyone."
Huo Feng said: "As for the reason why the idle sea households are reluctant to go to sea, it is related to the [Eight Gods] rumored in the South China Sea."
"Oh? Erba Shenren?" Lu Heng was a little interested. "These Erbai Shenren... why are they gods? Why can they scare the idle sea households away from going out to sea?"
Huo Feng has long been accustomed to Lu Heng's various "ignorance" rumors in the arena.
Now that Lu Heng didn't know the legendary "Eight Gods", Huo Feng was relieved. He said in his heart that he didn’t even know the wolf god, so he definitely wasn’t a powerful existence in the ancient times.
He smiled and said, "These two or eight gods are a rumor outside the South China Sea."
"I don't know since when, it is rumored that there is a mysterious existence in this South China Sea, named Erba Divine Man. His cultivation is extremely high, his supernatural power is tyrannical, and he looks down on the South China Sea."
"But there are various versions of its specific image."
"There are rumors that Erba Shenren is a sea clan demon cultivator who has successfully practiced. He has sixteen arms and sixteen eyes. He can make clouds and mists, and make waves. He is a water god in the sea."
"There are also rumors that the 28 gods are 16 brothers and sisters from the same country, each of whom has natural supernatural powers. In case of danger, the 16 brothers and sisters will hold their arms and defend the enemy at the same time, which has the terrifying power of exorcising evil spirits and suppressing demons. ."
Huo Feng said several different rumors in one breath, but all the rumors have one thing in common.
- That is, these two eight gods have extraordinary supernatural powers and are tyrannical and invincible. Wherever they go, there will be monsters and evil things.
I don't know if it is the appearance of these two or eight gods that will cause evil things to haunt them. Or is it the work of evil things that will make Erba gods come to life...
Many idle sea household fishermen in Nanhai City are reluctant to go too far to sea, because of the legend of these two eight gods, and because of the fact that evil things are in chaos overseas and water monsters are raging.
Such chaos may not be serious for those large caravans escorted by monks.
But for those ordinary idle sea households, once they go out to sea, if they accidentally bump into an evil creature, it will be a disaster, so they are reluctant to go out to sea.
After listening to Huo Feng's explanation, Lu Heng also understood the situation.
"So now in the South China Sea, there are demons and water demons raging?" Lu Heng asked.
Huo Feng nodded, then said with a smile, "But those water monsters who are raging and raging are not tyrannical, so you don't need to worry too much. As long as you don't bump into the legendary Erba, there is no danger in this trip."
"Of course, even if I ran into the rumored Erba God. In front of the wolf god, that guy would have to flee if he wanted to come."
Huo Feng said with a smile, full of confidence.
In the Falling Dragon Mountain, I saw Lu Heng discussing the Tao with the legendary candle dragon. In Huo Feng's heart, the wolf god is already the top existence in the world.
When the wolf god was about to use his sword, even the legendary candle dragon was scared away for several miles. With such power, who else can do it in this world
Even if someone told Huo Feng at this time that the wolf god was invincible even among the ancient powers, Huo Feng would not be surprised, but nodded repeatedly, saying that it was indeed the case.
Huo Feng was full of confidence, but Lu Heng looked at him with a funny look, shook his head, and said, "Brother Huo is very confident in Lu... Ha..."
"But it doesn't matter. Although there are many rumors about the 28 gods, there is no such thing as murderous and tyrannical. Although it is strange, it is not a real evil."
"Even if we bump into each other, we don't have to worry too much, just be reasonable with it."
"There is nothing in this world that makes no sense," Lu Heng said with a smile.
Huo Feng also nodded in agreement.
"Yes, nothing in this world is unreasonable."
In front of the wolf god, who would dare to be unreasonable!
Don't you see the red lady in the Qingming Grotto, the green bamboo lady in Fushan City, these two tyrannical evil spirits who raged all over the place and had a vicious and notorious reputation, are all disgraced in front of the wolf god
If the so-called Erba Shenren collided with the wolf god, it would be better to say that it was not a real evil spirit. If it is really an evil spirit who does not know whether to live or die, it is impossible to say that the wolf god will act for the sky again, so that there will be one less monster in this world.
In this way, with strong self-confidence, Huo Feng slept in the inn for the night, and then set off early the next morning, taking Lu Heng and Xiao Ai to the port.
The barge, who was unwilling to take the boat, fought hard and wanted to stay on the shore and wait for Huo Feng to come back, but was dragged away by Huo Feng.
This trip has a lot of luggage.
When you arrive in the country of the sharks, you need to walk ashore.
There is no horse to carry the burden, and Huo Feng does not know how long it will take to carry so much luggage alone. How could he let this coolie go.
Chapter 144 Desert Island Stone Statue
Above the South China Sea, the blue waves are mighty.
The surging waves slapped the bottom of the boat from time to time, causing the small boat to sway up and down, left and right.
On the deck on the bow, the position with the widest view was originally Lu Heng's resting place, but now he has let it out, with a soft barge lying on his stomach.
The barge with sharp fangs, ferocious and violent, and eating tigers is now lying on the edge of the deck, with its soft and long tongue sticking out, as if it were dead.
As the ship swayed, the soft barge twitched a few times from time to time, and then in a painful retching sound, it spit out sticky acid water into the sea, but it didn't even have the strength to complain.
Just following the sea breeze, from time to time there was a low and weak strange cry. That weird low voice, gloomy and evil, like a sorcerer casting his head, it made people feel gloomy.
Lu Heng was a little curious and asked, "What is the barge talking about?"
Huo Feng, who was checking the state of the ship, looked up and said, "Oh, it's nothing, you're scolding me."
Huo Feng said, "Don't pay attention to the wolf god. If this guy vomits for a long time, he probably won't have the strength to scold him."
"..." Looking at Huo Feng's unconcerned appearance, Lu Heng suddenly didn't know how to evaluate the relationship between the master and the servant.
It can only be said that if the barge can speak words, the ship will definitely be very lively at this time.
Shaking his head with a smile, Lu Heng walked to the deck on the second floor, ignoring the pair of living treasures below.
It's been a day since I left Nanhai Chenggang District.
Drifting at sea was more boring than Lu Heng imagined.
Although this is the first time that Lu Heng has seen the real sea, but when he saw the blue sea and blue sky under the scorching sun, Lu Heng was not as excited as he imagined.
Although the vast ocean is deep and beautiful, it will be like that after looking at it for a long time. It's not as good as Xiao Ai's eyes.
However, although the journey was boring, Lu Heng did not start practicing.
He is now lying on the edge of the deck on the second floor, basking lazily in the sun, watching this tiny boat move forward in the vast and boundless sea.
Different from Jiangzhong, on this vast sea surface, even under the scorching sun and sunshine, the surging and ups and downs of the waves are by no means comparable to rivers and rivers.
Small sea boats are driving in it, and it always makes people feel that they will be overturned when encountering a strong wind and waves.
However, with Lu Heng and Xiao Ai, two practitioners, there is no need to worry about capsize.
Lu Heng was lying on the deck, thinking in a bored way, emptying his mind after a long absence, and did not deduce the technique of cultivation.
His deduction fell into a stalemate, and he did not come out for several days. So Lu Heng simply didn't want to.
Anyway, as a demon cultivator, his life span is extremely long, and it doesn't matter if he is lazy for ten days and a half.
In such a leisurely daze, Lu Heng and his boat gradually left the waters of Nanhai City.
In the afternoon, a lonely island appeared on the sea ahead.
The island is not big, but there is a huge stone statue on the island. Lu Heng roughly estimated that the statue was nearly fifty meters high.
Such a huge stone statue stands silently on that small island. Like a silent god, standing silently on the blue waves of the South China Sea, overlooking the passing ships indifferently.
Huo Feng explained, "That's Boundary Island. The stone statue on it is something from the ancient times. Before the establishment of Huotong Kingdom, this stone statue was standing on the island, and I don't know what kind of person carved it. , and lifelike.”
"And if this island goes south, it is no longer the territory of the Fire Tong Nation, it is the real Nanyang that has entered."
"It is said that there is a demon-suppressing order left by the ancestors of the Huotong Kingdom on the Boundary Island, which can deter the demon Xiaoxiao. Therefore, many evil water monsters on the South China Sea have always dared not cross the Boundary Island."
"And many fishermen in the South China Sea, even if they go out to fish, they usually don't get too far from this Boundary Island."
Huo Feng explained seriously, but this time Lu Heng did not answer him.
Under the scorching sun in the afternoon, Lu Heng, who appeared as a wolf, stood on the deck and looked at the huge stone statue on the island in the distance in astonishment. His emotions were so shocked that even Huo Feng could clearly feel it.
"Lord Wolf God?" Huo Feng called out in confusion, but still got no response.
The huge white wolf stared at the huge stone statue on the isolated island in the distance, opened his eyes, and tried to find the strangeness.
However, in the eyes of Fa, the stone statues on the isolated island were silent and ordinary, without the slightest hint of spiritual light and rhythm, just simple rock sculptures. The surface of the sculpture is covered with traces left by wind, sun and rain. It is vicissitudes of life and ancient, and I don't know how many years have passed.
Lu Heng's eyes remained silent for a long time.
On the island, the huge stone statue is a woman with a snake tail.
The sculptor who created this stone statue is very skilled. Even if it is just an ordinary rock sculpture, it still has a beauty that cannot be ignored.
It seems that above the blue waves, a woman with a snake's tail is standing quietly, overlooking the sea indifferently.
On the deck, Lu Heng tilted his head slightly, quietly looking at the stone statue in the distance.
At that moment, he seemed to have spanned thousands of years or even tens of thousands of years, and looked at a certain existence in those ancient years.
Nuwa…
This title appeared slightly in Lu Heng's heart.
