After driving away those brats, Xu Shenxing held up the turtle and asked curiously, "Is this edible? Is it delicious? How to eat it?"
"You can eat it without the head, and the chicken tastes crunchy."
The parrot raised its chicken wings towards Xu Shenxing—it probably wanted to make a thumbs up movement, but unfortunately, because the bird's body structure doesn't have a thumb at all, it can't make such a difficult movement.
"This voice... Is it Lord Bian Caitian? Don't eat me, I have pulled the cable for the treasure ship, I have worked hard for the Dragon Palace! You can't do this! I want to see Lord Ebisu!"
At the sound of the parrot, the turtle struggled with its paddle-like limbs.
"Don't be nervous, they're just joking with you..." The kind-hearted, or the only conscientious Violet in the team couldn't see it, and said to Xu Shenxing: "Jokes are enough, please put it down. "
"Hey, can't you eat it?" Xu Shenxing put the turtle back on the beach with a look of regret.
— This guy is actually serious!
Even Pansy was scared...
"Dragon Palace Envoy, we have something to ask His Highness Otohime, but the Dragon Palace City has been abandoned, can you tell us what happened?" Speaking of business, the parrot looked a lot more serious.
"This matter is a bit complicated... By the way, I don't know who these two are?" Hai Turtle sighed, then looked at Xu Shenxing and Pansy, and asked in a puzzled tone.
"They are my friends, it doesn't matter, they can be trusted, just say what you have to say." The parrot replied without hesitation.
"Well, since they are your friends, Mr. Bian Caitian, then of course I can trust them..."
The turtle turned around and crawled slowly on the land: "It's a long story, I'd better take you to find Her Highness Otohime."
"Although I think the time you spend climbing must be longer than what you said."
Xu Shenxing shrugged noncommittally, then went up to catch the turtle again.
"Hey, you haven't given up on eating it yet..." Viola couldn't help but look embarrassed.
"No! I just don't have much time to wait for it to crawl to Nashi Laoziyiji, so let it show me the way, and I'll take it instead." Xu Shenxing responded dissatisfiedly: "Don't forget, I can't take people with me. Very good at it!"
Hearing what he said, the girl turned pale as if recalling some nightmare.
"Oh~ thank you so much, you are indeed a friend of Lord Bian Caitian, and you are really friendly."
Unaware of the imminent disaster, the turtle swung its limbs and looked very happy.
After about ten seconds.
"—In the next life, if only I can be a turtle."
Turtle, pawn.
…
"According to what the Dragon Palace envoy said, Otohime should live here."
In front of a small village not far from the sea, the parrot, which had been busy for a long time, landed on the torch at the entrance of the village for lighting at night and was still extinguished, and made a gesture of relief.
"Blame me?" Xu Shenxing spread his hands innocently.
"Don't blame you, don't blame me!" Unlike the parrot with wings that can fly and Xu Shenxing who has unlimited stamina plug-in, Viola Pentaphylla has been exhausted for a long time.
Because after the sea turtle woke up, he chanted "the land is terrible" and swore that he would never leave the sea again. It was useless to persuade Biancaitian and Viola Wuye, and finally they could only ask the dragon god from the other party's mouth. They found the place where Otohime lives now by themselves.
By the way, after that, the fear of land was deeply rooted in the sea turtles, and it was even imprinted on the DNA level, so that in the future, sea turtles would hardly go to land unless they reproduced... So after that, there was no People have been to Dragon Palace City, probably because of this.
Originally, they thought it would take a lot of effort to find Otohime in the village, but they didn't expect that not long after entering the village, everyone ran into the other party who was drying kelp on the clothes drying pole outside the house.
Now Kohakukawa Otohime is wearing a kimono of poor fabric like an ordinary woman, her long black and beautiful hair is casually tied into a bun, and she is holding a wooden bucket full of kombu in her hand, but even so, that piece of about Twenty years old and without makeup, the face still has a peerless appearance.
"May I ask who you are?"
Otohime, whose identity was exposed by the parrot, watched everyone with a vigilant look on her face.
"I said Otohime, you can't even hear my voice? I used to sail on your treasure ship and come here on your amber river."
The parrot greeted each other quite familiarly.
"Treasure Ship, the Seven Gods of Fortune?... Could this voice be Master Biancaitian?"
Otohime thought for a while and remembered the identity of the parrot.
"That's right, it's me." Seeing that the other party recognized him, the parrot couldn't help being happy: "It's really not easy to find you. If it didn't happen that the envoy of the Dragon Palace was bullied, we wouldn't know that you ran away." Came here."
"I see, is it a turtle..."
Hearing what it said, Otohime understood how the group of people in front of her found herself.
At this time, an old voice came from the wooden house behind her.
"Otohime, is there a guest?"
Then, the mat-like door curtain was lifted, and an old man walked out with a cane.
Because the living standard in Fusang was not good in ancient times, like other places in this era, the average life expectancy of human beings is very low, only about forty years old, even the grandfather in the previous village was actually only fifty how old.
But now the old man in front of Xu Shenxing and the others could be called old even in modern times.
"Taro, why did you come out?" Otohime put the wooden barrel in her hand on the ground, and hurriedly ran to the old man's side to help him up: "Your body is no better than before, you have to go back to bed and lie down!"
"Haha, it's okay, I think today's spirit is much better than yesterday, it's okay to go out for a walk." The old man waved his hands openly and said with a smile.
"No! Isn't it that you can't even walk steadily? Go back to bed, and when you recover, we'll go to your favorite beach to watch the sea."
But the girl was not at all swayed by the old man's words, but persuaded the wryly smiling old man back into the house with a gentle but firm tone like the nurse.
The two who had witnessed all this were silent. Even Xu Shenxing frowned—although he was not proficient in cursing, he could still feel the power of the unusual curse on the old man.
After Otohime freed his hand and went back outside the house, the parrot asked hesitantly: "His Highness Otohime... What's going on? That person just now..."
Otohime was silent for a while as if she didn't know what to answer, and finally sighed.
"He is my husband, Urashima Taro."
