My system is too Buddhist

Chapter 80 The Truth of the Illusory Sea

Four o'clock in the morning
The night was still dark at this time, looking out of the window, there was still a dim and starry sky in the field of vision.The nearby houses are also a little intoxicated because of the bright starlight.

The awakened ones wandering on the street all came back from outside the town.The faces of these night owls were full of excitement, and they got a lot of interesting things by looking at them.

On the fourth floor of the inn, Tang Xiaojiu and Bai Xiaoye just woke up.Holding the steamed buns from the back kitchen downstairs, we discussed countermeasures while eating.

"In this way, I suspect that none of the people in this town are human beings, they should all be mermaids." Tang Xiaojiu said with a frown as she bit a bite of the juicy steamed stuffed bun.

After discovering that the patrolman and his wife were mermaids last night, the two quietly sneaked into other houses to investigate the situation.This sight actually led them to discover a terrifying fact: these "people" all have fish tails.

At this time, Young Master Bai's face was also full of confusion, walking up and down in the room. "But I have also gone out at night before, and I didn't realize that they are not human at all."

It is not a matter of a day or two for the awakened people to stay here. It is impossible that there are no good people hunting for treasure at night.But for a week, no one noticed the weirdness of this place at all.Not to mention, knowing the secret that the humans here are mermaids.

"You still remember the fairy tale saying that after a mermaid turns a fish tail into a leg, it will turn back into a fish tail after a while. Maybe you didn't notice it because their time limit for changing is not enough."

"Why don't we just ignore it? Anyway, tomorrow is the last day of the ruins."

After all, this place is within the ruins, and you can leave here as soon as the time comes.Although I didn’t get many treasures, I had no regrets if I could come in and take a look.As a travel expert, Bai Xiaoye deeply feels that this plan is feasible.

"You think so, but it doesn't mean others think so." Tang Xiaojiu glanced at him and signaled him to be quiet.

The moment they fell silent, there was a slight sound of footsteps in the corridor outside, which was the sound of the door next door being opened.There was a slight sound of flipping things inside, and then the sound fell silent again after a while.

Five minutes later, footsteps stopped at the door of their room.

Both stood up, defensive weapons in hand.The empty hand on the other side was also secretly accumulating spiritual energy.

"Squeak-"

The door was opened, and the person standing outside suddenly exclaimed.

As for Tang Xiaojiu and Bai Xiaoye, the movements of their hands also froze. "Student, what are you doing?"

"I'm sorry, I didn't know you would be here. I'll search the next room without delaying your good business. Let's go first, bye." The boy in Jianghai Middle School uniform outside the door showed an apologetic expression.

"Wait, come in!"

……

The boy outside the door is also a student of Jianghai Middle School, but during the training, this guy deliberately kept a low profile every time.So if the other party hadn't reported his family background, Tang Xiaojiu would never have remembered that there was such a number one among his classmates.

"Baozi, I have explained the details of the matter clearly. What do you think?" Tang Xiaojiu narrowed his eyes and looked at a certain child's shoe named Baozi.

The awakened people in this small town include not only students from Jianghai Middle School, but also some awakened people from outside.Both parties looked down upon each other, so they acted alone every time.

Tang Xiaojiu thought that he couldn't control the matter where the sky was high and the emperor was far away.But he can still give kind reminders to his own school.

So after knowing that Baozi was connected with other awakened people, Tang Xiaojiu resolutely decided to tell the secret they discovered.In his private heart, he still doesn't want accidents to happen to his classmates.

"Thank you, Tang Xiaojiu. I want to rescue a few students trapped in the auction house."

"But that was auctioned last night, and now it is probably the property of someone else's fish. Where are you going to find out their whereabouts?"

"They're still in the auction house." Baozi Children's Shoes said with affirmation on his face. "You were discovered by the people in the auction house last night, so their goal must be to catch you. And there was already chaos in the auction at that time, and it is reasonable that it will not continue."

"Then what are you going to do?" Tang Xiaojiu was not opposed to saving people, but he would not do it blindly if he wanted to die fearlessly.

Now that they knew there were similar people, the auction house would definitely take security measures in advance.Maybe a trap is being laid right now, waiting for people like them to come to the door on their own initiative.

"I'll go back and discuss it with other people. Even if I can't save people, I have to delay the time until twelve noon tomorrow."

At twelve noon tomorrow, the time when the ruins will be closed.

All the awakened people who came in to practice, as long as they are still alive, will be sent out to the place where they were sent out, that is, on the edge of the cliff in the Zhengjiawan mountain forest.

"I want to find out the secret of this place." Mr. Bai exhaled deeply, his eyes shining like stars.

This guy's curiosity has been aroused, and he has already regarded this town and the mermaid as a fun thing.So before Tang Xiaojiu had time to speak, he had already discussed the countermeasures with Baozi.

Baozi and the other awakened people were responsible for saving lives, and he and Tang Xiaojiu figured out the weirdness of this place.By the way... Find some more treasures.

Seeing Young Master Bai happily sending the buns out, Tang Xiaojiu glanced at him indifferently: "I don't intend to get involved in your excitement!"

"Brother! Master, do you think I'm a friend? You see, our relationship is so strong. We share blessings and hardships together, and we have to share fun things together." After hearing Tang Xiaojiu's rejection, Mr. Bai's His face fell instantly.

"Bai-xiao-ye! Can you use your brain?"

"Didn't I just use my brain..."

"If you accidentally encounter danger or die during the process of exploring the secret, then it will be a shame. I don't plan to accompany you to see Max. I might as well go to save people with Baozi."

"Don't bother me. I'll protect you if something happens." At this time, phrases such as fantasy sea, portal, mermaid, and treasure were lingering in Mr. Bai's mind.

In fact, in Tang Xiaojiu's heart, there was already a faint guess, and now it was just a rough framework.

The so-called fantasy sea is actually the sea area they entered before.This town should exist at the bottom of the Fantasy Sea. As for why the mermaids here became spirits and there are various courtyard shops, it must be related to the ruins.He could also see radishes turned into spirits in the ruins mountain range, no, wild ginseng turned into spirits.

The world is full of wonders, and it is normal to meet mermaids at the bottom of this fantasy sea.As for the grievances between the mermaid and the human race, it is probably related to the original history of the ruins.In such a short period of time, it is impossible for him to have time to explore.

"Xiao Jiu...it's not good...you look out of the window!"
