Master is unreliable

Seeing the young man's nervous expression, everyone finally turned their heads and looked towards the shore.

Seeing this, everyone's expressions changed drastically.

I saw a person standing on the shore in the distance.

On this dark rainy night, they could see clearly because the man standing by the sea was holding a lamp in his hand.

"Oh my god, there's a ghost!" one person screamed.

This wailing made everyone panic. They looked at each other with fear in their eyes.

Chunzi was about to cry: "Well, this is not the ghost of Yonglin Fishing Village, is it? Is he trying to use his corpse to revive his soul? I heard from my grandma..."

"Say nonsense." The chief mate who had been silent all this time finally couldn't stand it any longer. He scolded, "What kind of ghost is it? Don't scare yourself. Go, drive the boat over."

Everyone was shocked, "Where are you going?"

The first officer pointed to the coast and said, "Can't you see it? It's raining so heavily, and the man is there with a lamp, waiting for the boat. Let's go and pick him up."

"But there is no one in Yonglin Fishing Village. It has been deserted for so many years, who would come here for ordinary people? Anyway, I have never seen it for so many years."

"Maybe something happened there." The first officer looked up at the pitch-black sky, wiped the rain off his face with his hand, and said, "Don't talk about it, if you stay on that island for a day in this weather, you will definitely get sick from the cold. Go out It’s not easy for everyone outside, so please help if you can. Besides, under the management of Yun Xianjun, everything on the sea is peaceful, except for wind and waves, nothing can hurt us.”

What the chief mate said made sense, and someone soon stood by his side: "Yes, I have never heard of any demons attacking a merchant ship in the past few years. There are so many of us, and there are several cultivators on board." People, there is nothing to be afraid of."

Everyone quickly agreed, and the first officer nodded: "Okay, I'll go talk to the captain and the steward."

The sea was very stormy, and it took a lot of effort for the merchant ship to get close to the sea.

As the distance got closer, everyone found that standing on the shore was a man in black clothes.

The man held an umbrella in one hand and in the other a lantern that swayed from side to side in the sea breeze.

A sailor in a coir raincoat shook the oil lamp a few times, and waved to the people on the shore: "Hey, friend, did you encounter any difficulties, do you want to give you a ride?"

The man on the shore said: "Thank you very much."

The man in black clothes sounded very young, the sailor was stunned, and couldn't help asking: "Little brother, this place has been abandoned for many years, what are you doing here, it's scary."

The young man on the shore smiled: "It's not scary, I'm here to pay homage to my childhood friend."

"Ah? Are you from Yonglin Fishing Village?"

The young man said: "Well, but I moved away from here when I was very young. Just happened to pass by here recently, so I came back to have a look."

The man on the boat sighed: "It's a good thing you moved away early, hey. Brother, wait a minute, we'll pull the boat over."

"No need." The young man on the shore said, "Please step back a bit."

Although the people on board didn't understand why, they still stepped back.In the next moment, the young man on the shore jumped, and in the blink of an eye, he came to the boat.

Everyone on board was stunned.

"Little brother turns out to be a cultivator of immortality." One person stepped forward and said, "Then why didn't you just come here and wait on the shore for so long."

The young man said, "If I come here rashly, I'm afraid I'll scare you."

"Then what if we don't go there, do you want to stand on the shore all night?"

The young man smiled and said nothing.

The first mate came out from the crowd and said with a smile, "Don't talk about it, the sea is rough here, little brother come with me and sit inside, don't catch the wind and cold."

The first mate went to pull the young man while talking, only to find that the young man's body wasn't wet with rain, but his grasp wet the young man's clothes.

The first mate was a little embarrassed. The young man had a good temper and didn't care about it, but said softly, "Thank you."

The chief mate led the young man to the cabin: "My name is Zhang, and I am the chief mate of this ship. If you need anything on board, you can contact me directly."

The young man nodded and called, "Uncle Zhang."

The first mate hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Little brother is so capable, I, an ordinary person, can't afford to be Uncle Zhang. Just call me by my name, my name is Zhang..."

The young man said: "How can I do that?"

While talking, the two stepped into the cabin, and with the help of the firelight, the first officer finally saw clearly the appearance of the young man beside him.

I saw the young man dressed in black brocade clothes, with bright eyes and white teeth, he was very handsome.

If he hadn't witnessed the young man's ability to leap with his own eyes just now, First Mate Zhang might have thought that he was a young master raised by a wealthy family, and would definitely not think about cultivating immortals.

First Officer Zhang said: "By the way, I still don't know the name of the little brother, and which sect is the master disciple?"

The young man said: "My surname is Duan, Duan Ning. Uncle Zhang can just call me by my name." After a pause, he continued: "As for the sect, the sect has its own orders, so we must not reveal it. Please forgive me, Uncle Zhang."

"Hey, what are you talking about, little brother?" First Officer Zhang said with a smile: "Although I am not a member of the immortal sect, I also know that each sect has its own rules. I see Brother Duan's ability, and the sect he worships must be great .”

The young man smiled and said nothing.

"Brother Duan, haven't you eaten yet?" First Officer Zhang said, "I think the storm will stop soon, so it's time to prepare something to eat. Come on, I'll take you there to have a look."

Duan Ning—that is, Chu Lan hummed, and followed First Mate Zhang into the dining hall.

As Chief Mate Zhang expected, as soon as the wind and waves stopped, the cooks began to prepare food.Not long after, the smell of food wafted in the air.

Mate Zhang sat with Chu Lan for a while, and when the food was served, he stood up.

"Brother Duan, you eat first, I'll go outside to have a look. I've told the brothers on the boat that they will take you to rest after you finish eating. If you need anything, just tell them, you're welcome."

Chu Lan said: "Okay, thank you."

Not long after Chief Mate Zhang left, some people entered the dining hall one after another, including several monks with swords.

Judging from the aura emanating from those monks, they are not from the same sect.But judging by the way they get along, they don't look like strangers.

After the monks received their meals, they sat down at the table next to Chu Lan.Perhaps they had been floating on the sea for a long time, and those people didn't shy away from the people on the boat, and they quickly started talking.

One person said: "Calculate the time, can we reach the mirage tonight?"

Hearing them mention the mirage, Chu Lan couldn't help but pause.

Another person said: "If it weren't for this storm, we would have been in a mirage long ago. Hey, God made a mistake."

Chu Lan thinks these people are quite interesting. Judging from what they said, it seems that the mirage is in a fixed place and can be found at any time.

As he was thinking like this, the man who just sighed shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Hey, look at me, what a waste of time, so what if it's in the mirage? I'm afraid it's a piece of clothing from the owner of the mirage. You can’t even touch him, let alone defeat him.”

defeat?

Chu Lan couldn't help feeling a little puzzled, what does this mean?

Several people at the next table talked while eating, and the topic always revolved around the mirage.

Chu Lan sat there for a while, finally put down her chopsticks lightly, stood up and said, "Several celestial lords, I heard you talking about mirages just now. What's the competition? What happened?"

"Master, are you interested in the mirage?" The tallest man among them looked at Chu Lan and said with a smile: "The mirage is full of people from all sides, but it is very dangerous. You are not a cultivator, so don't join in the fun That's it, so as not to worry the parents at home."

Two years have passed, and Chu Lan's cultivation has become more and more advanced, and he has also become more proficient in the exercises given by Si Mingjue.At this time, not even a trace of spiritual power leaked from him, and these people naturally regarded him as an ordinary person.

These monks would never have dreamed that the handsome young man standing in front of them was the young man who was wanted by Ming Guangzong two years ago.

Chu Lan smiled and said, "Brother, I'm just a little curious."

The few monks sitting here were very easy-going. Seeing Chu Lan standing, they moved aside to make room for him.

"Come on, sit down and talk."

Chu Lan would not refuse, she thanked her and took her seat.

Chu Lan said softly: "Brothers, I have heard about the legend of the mirage. I heard that the place is very difficult to find, and many people can't find it in their entire lives. I also heard that the owner of the mirage is very strong. No one has dared to cause trouble in Mirage for so many years. You just said that you defeated the Lord of Mirage, what do you mean by that?"

The monks looked at each other and smiled, and the monk who invited Chu Lan to sit down said, "Little brother, you don't know, the master of the mirage—"

Under the monk's explanation, Chu Lan quickly figured out the cause of the incident.

It turned out that at the beginning of Mirage's establishment, many people thought that Si Mingjue was just a low-level character, but he wanted to occupy a piece of heaven and earth in the sea.Those people wanted to teach him a lesson.

At that time, many people deliberately caused troubles in the mirage, trying to destroy Si Mingjue's hard work, but Si Mingjue was not so easy to bully.He kicked out all the guys who were looking for trouble.

"The owner of the mirage building is also a character. According to my master's master... the master said, because there are too many people causing trouble, the owner of the mirage building is annoyed, so he simply set up a arena on the island. Anyone who is not convinced can come to the stage to challenge. If If you can defeat him, he will give you the mirage as a gift."

Chu Lan nodded, thinking that this really seemed like something Si Mingjue could do.

"No one knows the identity of the owner of the mirage, but he is very powerful. It is said that there are thousands of challengers, but no one can defeat him."

The monk who spoke blushed with excitement, "Over time, the mirage's arena competition has become a tradition. It is said that every few hundred years, the mirage will have a good time."

A person next to him said with emotion: "Many people are looking forward to this competition, so that they can compete with Master Mirage. Even if they lose, they can learn a lot, right?"

Chu Lan had been in the mirage for so long, but this was the first time she had heard of such a thing.He couldn't help but wonder if it was a rumor.

"Hey, little brother." The monks said with a smile: "This matter does not sound real. We didn't believe it as much as you did at the beginning, but the mirage has been floating on the sea for three consecutive days. Who knows With such ability, can you fake a mirage and deceive us?"

When Chu Lan thought about it, there was indeed some truth.

Although he doesn't know the structure of the mirage, but the huge energy contained in it, if you look around the world, you probably won't be able to find another one.

"What the elder brothers said is true." Chu Lan said, "I am overthinking."

Chu Lan chatted with them a few more times, and was about to go back to rest, when someone shouted outside: "Look, what is that—"

When the people in the dining hall heard the shout, they stood up and looked out. Soon a monk turned his head and shouted excitedly: "It's a mirage, the mirage is here! It's here! Hahaha."

"It's really a mirage!"

"Hahaha, mirage, here we come! This is the first time I have seen a mirage in my life, I have no regrets in this life."

The few monks shouted excitedly. People who have been in business all year round have also heard of mirages, and the entire merchant ship boiled for a while.

One of the monks turned his head and smiled at Chu Lan: "Hey, little brother, haven't you always been interested in mirages? It's just right, I'll give you a ride, how about we go over and have a look?"
