Tonight seems especially long.

The ray of moonlight that I had waited for so long disappeared quietly again.

Above the unreachable night sky, dark clouds are rolling in the wind.

The dense banyan forest was so quiet that it was suffocating.

The little girl with a dirty face sat on the edge of the rock platform in a daze, letting the cold wind mess up her hair for a while, secretly wiping away tears with her injured hands.

Yan Haixi looked at her silently.

After a moment, he closed his eyes in pain and opened them again.

Just as he was about to speak, the little girl suddenly started crying and rolled up her sleeves.

Yan Hai frowned, "What are you doing?"

Ah Bao's eyes were red, and he wiped away his tears again, "Go back to the ship to find my uncle."

At this moment, Yan Haixi was even more worried and wanted to figure it out.

"What if you go back and find Xuanyuan Fengran dead?"

A Bao's face turned even paler, but his tone was still stubborn, "If he's alive, I want to see him. If he's dead, I want to see his body."

"If my uncle really dies, I will roast that black python! And then I will torture the sixteen tribes of the barbarians to death to accompany my uncle in his burial!"

Of course, she would not let Pei Guichen go.

There is also the Huainan Pei family!

Thinking of this, Abao turned around and looked silently into the depths of the old banyan forest.

Before falling asleep, she quietly looked over there.

However, in the dense forest of old banyan trees with tangled roots, there are living dead everywhere.

They wander through the woods, waiting for an opportunity to hunt.

After the old banyan tree was washed by the heavy rain, the dried bloodstains that had once stained it spread out in strands along with the accumulated water.

She knew then that even if she slowed down her steps, it would be useless.

They will be woken up as soon as you get close.

Therefore, he wanted to follow the agreement and take the hiding maid in green with him.

The best way was for her to blow the jade whistle and summon the snow sculpture.

Fortunately, she chose this high rock platform next to the century-old banyan tree in the undercurrent swamp, climbed up to the treetop nimbly, and prepared to blow the jade whistle.

But Yan Haixi grabbed his wrist and stopped him in a deep voice.

"Xuanyuan Fengran's snow sculpture cannot enter here."

"Why?" Po was puzzled: "Snow eagles have a keen sense of smell and are best at finding their way."

However, Yan Haixi still insisted: "It can't be distinguished here."

Hearing this, A Bao was furious, "Yan Haixi, do you think I am a fool who can be deceived?"

That day, the pirate Yan Haixi clearly saw with her own eyes that when she whistled, the snow sculpture quickly and accurately found the top of Fengdu Palace and took Xuanyuan Fengran away.

Yan Haixi's eyes were stern, "You once asked me where the second ferry to leave Mengjia Island was, but I didn't answer at that time."

"..." A Bao hugged the tree branch angrily, "So?"

Changing the subject, Yan Haixi talked about another matter: "The forbidden pool on this island that houses the giant black-scaled python is the underground palace where the bronze coffin was placed just now. Behind the palace pillars on the west side of the underground palace is a waterfall on the cliff, which is also the southernmost tip of Mengjia Island."

Hearing this, A Bao said coldly: "I guessed all this a long time ago."

"The little princess is really smart."

"You don't need to praise me. I'm very smart."

After he finished speaking, A Bao suddenly saw Yan Haixi's thin lips slightly pursed, as if he was smiling.

This Yan Haixi, who smiled at her gently and harmlessly, was even more terrifying.

A Bao was horrified, took a deep breath to calm himself, and asked back coldly.

"So what? What does this have to do with my snow sculptures?"

Yan Haixi recalled what the little girl had just said, the natural familiarity, as if she and he were close friends, chatting and teasing.

His mind tensed up a little, and Yan Hai's throat rolled, "The end of this waterfall is a den of ghosts."

This was a shocking statement, and A Bao frowned and stared at Yan Haixi.

The pirate smiled even more: "The little princess is smart, she must know what a den of evil is."

A Bao inexplicably felt that he was teasing her, but she didn't dare to get angry.

Holding back her anger, she explained, "There is a stretch of sea in the southernmost part of Chuyue, which is called the Ghost Den by the people of Chuyue. Any ship that approaches the Ghost Den will never return."

Yan Hai pursed his thin and cold lips, and the smile deepened even more.

"That's true, the little princess is really smart."

However, in a flash, the pirate leader's deep voice gradually became cold, "No one knows that this Mengjia Island is the so-called Ghost Gate."

Before she could finish her words, A Bao was shocked to find that the group of giant crocodiles that had been patiently hiding in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to pounce and eat her alive, suddenly turned around and fled, heading straight into the depths of the old banyan forest.

A Bao was completely confused, but Yan Haixi looked stern.

"What did you find?" She followed Yan Haixi's gaze and looked into the distance.

Huge waves suddenly rose up in the dark distant sea.

Without giving Abao any chance to react, in the blink of an eye, loud thunder struck, followed by heavy rain.

A huge wave came in an instant and completely submerged her.

In the dark waves, Po only felt that—

The giant beast in the deep sea abyss has awakened.
