The Taste of Ghosts in the World

A small fish swam over with its tail wagging, stirring up a slight current. Apart from these sounds, the bottom of the sea was silent.

The huge dragon's body flashed beautiful scales under the water, and the dragon's beard danced slowly with the current. It swam in circles for a while, and its sharp eyes were fixed on a flat sandy land on the bottom of the sea.

After a while, half a tortoise shell suddenly appeared on the previously empty sandy ground. The old tortoise poked its head around and looked around, and finally found the big man who was eyeing it. I just can't turn over on all four legs.

It opened its mouth and spit out a string of bubbles of unknown meaning.

The big lotus pod widened its eyes, thinking it was fun, and imitated it to spit bubbles.The giant dragon raised its front paws, put a finger against its shell and pushed it gently, and helped it turn over.

The old tortoise got up thankfully, opened the door respectfully, and made a gesture of "please".

A golden light flashed, and the dragon stood up, becoming the size of an ordinary person. The big lotus pod on its back also fell off, was lifted up by the water, and landed lightly.

They followed the old turtle into the Dragon Palace, which could not be seen from the outside. As soon as the big lotus pod stepped into the door, they found that they were standing in a long corridor with faint light, with crystal clear walls on both sides, and they could still see the head. fish and colorful corals.

Walking along the corridor for a while, I found a beautiful coral tree standing at the corner, with a few wisps of dark green aquatic plants faintly floating among the branches.

The old turtle stopped, sighed silently, and said in a hoarse voice: "Third Princess, this old slave saw you, come out quickly."

There was a little movement behind the tree, but no one came out.

"Third Princess, there are distinguished guests here, aren't you afraid of losing face?" the old turtle said again.

After a while, a petite girl came out from behind the coral tree. Her two almond eyes were slightly raised at the corners, giving people a naughty look. Her dark green curly hair was almost black, draped behind her head like seaweed.

"Grandpa Turtle, you discovered it again!" Her voice was clear and clear, with a strange sound of water flowing.

"Are you planning to go out just now?" Old Turtle said.

"No way! I'm just strolling around and I'll be back soon."

The old turtle knew the temper of this dragon princess very well, so he didn't expose her, he just turned his body sideways and said to her: "This is our honored guest, Mr. Zhulong."

"Candle Dragon?" The third princess tilted her head and thought for a while, "Oh! I've seen you! When I was young. You are amazing, my second brother lost you very badly! But... I remember that time You look like a dragon?"

Feng Baisui glanced at her, trying to recall the information in his mind, and finally found the appearance of a little green dragon.

"I remember when you were a dragon too."

"I've grown up~" The third princess stuck out her tongue proudly, "Of course I can transform into a human form!"

"What a coincidence," Feng Baisui said flatly, "I can do it too."

"..."

At this moment, the third princess noticed the big lotus pod beside her, bent down and pinched his face unceremoniously, and asked, "Hey, who are you?"

Da Lianpeng struggled to break free from her grip, and said angrily, "My name is Da Lianpeng!"

"Pfft——" the third princess couldn't hold back for a while, and then spit out like this, and then laughed, "Who gave you the name?"

The big lotus pod blushed from her laughter, but still raised her head proudly and said, "It's Master Yuan Ling!"

Upon hearing the word "Yuan Ling", the eyes of the third princess lit up immediately, "It's Brother Yuan Ling! He hasn't come to see me for a long time, and he said before that he will take me there when I can change form." Playing in the spirit world!"

She stood on tiptoe and looked behind them, and there was indeed no one else, then she turned to ask Feng Baisui: "Did you hide him?"

Feng Baisui's face was also not very good, and he said coldly: "I'm looking for him."

"Aren't you together?" The third princess asked strangely.

Feng Baisui did not answer, but bowed his head to the old turtle and said, "I want to see you Dragon King."

"Yes Yes Yes."

The old turtle nodded again and again, and led them to continue walking in. The third princess also followed behind with great interest, occasionally stepping on the heel of the big lotus.

"Brother Yuan Ling gave you this name, he must have deliberately teased you!"

"That's not true!" Da Lianpeng retorted anxiously: "Master Yuanling trusts us the most, and that's why he let my brother and I protect their important things!"

"Yo, do you have a younger brother?"

The big lotus pod nodded.

"Then what's your brother's name? Let me guess, could it be... Little Lotus?"

"..."

"Hahahaha-"

The third princess laughed again, and couldn't stop, the big lotus turned her head angrily, and ignored her no more.

After passing through the corridor, they gradually walked into the center of the Dragon Palace. The old turtle asked the third princess to take Feng Baisui to the Dragon King Palace. He had to inform the old Dragon King first.

The Dragon King Hall is not big, but it looks magnificent because of its crystal clearness. They sat under the Highness, and several maids brought herbal tea.Feng Baisui didn't move, the big lotus pod opened the lid curiously, a fresh smell of the sea came into his nose, a black seaweed floated in the light green tea soup, he swallowed, Silently re-covered.

When he raised his head again, he heard a majestic and heavy voice, with a more obvious sound of water flowing in that voice——

"The honored guest has arrived, and I will welcome you from afar!"

A middle-aged man wearing a dragon crown walked in and bowed down in front of Feng Baisui, "I don't know why Master Zhulong came to the humble house?"

When he was speaking, the two thin beards on his lips were curled up comically, and the big lotus pod couldn't help laughing out loud, but was stared at by the third princess, and quickly reached out to cover his mouth.

Feng Baisui didn't care about their little tricks, and said directly: "Do you know the soul of Yuan Ling?"

"I know, I know, looking at the Three Realms, who doesn't know?"

"The one collecting the soul dew is your Donghai pearl clam, do you know that?"

The Dragon King was stunned for a moment, and replied vaguely: "I have heard about it."

"Now that the soul dew is gone, the Pearl Clam should come back to you, right?"

"Oh..." the Dragon King faltered, with a troubled expression on his face, "But I don't know which oyster is hiding the soul dew!"

Feng Baisui narrowed his eyes, "It has been soaked in the aura of soul dew for many years, so it should be easy to identify, maybe it has become a spirit?"

The Dragon King lowered his head and muttered softly: "That kid is a genius..."

"What did you say?"

"It's nothing, nothing..." The Dragon King waved his hands again and again and said, "Well, I'll order my subordinates to investigate thoroughly and filter all the pearl oysters they can find to see if there are any."

So when to check...

Feng Baisui frowned, and was about to speak when he heard a notification from outside the hall——

"Heavenly Court has news, please ask my king to take a look!"

The old turtle ran out quickly, and soon came back holding a scroll, and looked at the Dragon King questioningly.

The Dragon King looked at Feng Baisui again, who nodded slightly and said nothing.

"Prime Minister Turtle, open it for me."

The old turtle slowly opened the scroll, and after reading a few lines, his face turned green with fright, and he stammered, "My lord, my lord...what, what should I do!"

"Why panic!" Dragon King felt that the old minister's reaction made him lose face in front of the big man, so he grabbed the scroll and said, "Why panic! This king will see for himself!"

He pretended to be majestic and raised the scroll to his eyes, but immediately changed his expression, "What's going on here!"

"What's the matter? You're all so scared!" The third princess also came over to join in the fun. Just as she was about to take the scroll, her father squeezed it hard, and the scroll was instantly reduced to ashes.

"Father!" The third princess stomped her feet angrily.

"What are the children looking for? Do you understand?" Dragon King reprimanded his daughter, while peeking at Feng Baisui, who sat there expressionlessly, as if he didn't pay attention to them at all.

Feng Baisui remained calm on the surface, but he had already noticed the Dragon King's gaze, and he had some guesses in his heart, so he asked him, "What was written on the scroll just now?"

"Hmm..." Dragon King hesitated to answer, and glanced at Prime Minister Turtle next to him, trying to push the trouble to others.

The old tortoise was worthy of living for such a long time. Seeing that the momentum was wrong, he quickly shrank his head, leaving only a tortoise shell dangling on the ground.

"Say it!" Feng Baisui urged impatiently.

The Dragon King had no choice but to speak carefully and slowly: "The news from the heavens said that...the soul dew...um...has disappeared, it may be the work of the...the demon world. They want to use...the aura of the soul dew...to compete with the heavens. .”

Feng Baisui's eyes suddenly turned cold, "So Yuan Ling didn't take back the soul dew, but was stolen by the demon world?"

The Dragon King nodded cautiously, "Probably so..."

"Did it say where the Yuan Ling is?"

"That's not true, but the soul dew was stolen by You Yi Lingguan, who should be in the demon world now."

Feng Baisui stood there frowning for a while, then turned around and walked out, and the big lotus pod trotted along the way to keep up.

"Hey, where are you going?" The third princess shouted anxiously.

Da Lianpeng took the time to turn around and said to her: "We are going to find Master Yuan Ling! You will have no chance!"

"What?! I want to go too!" The third princess raised her skirt and was about to chase her out, but her father stopped her, and she could only jump angrily on the spot.

Seeing the great god walking away, the Dragon King wiped his sweat, raised his foot and kicked the turtle shell on the ground, the old turtle slowly stretched out his head, "Go, go?"

"Leave early!" Dragon King said angrily.

"Huh—" Old Gui breathed a sigh of relief, patted his chest and said, "I can't stand this age anymore."

"What are you still doing here?!" The Dragon King waved his hands and said, "Hurry up, order someone to find the second prince back!!!"

"Oh, yes! The old slave will do it now!"

Prime Minister Gui said as he slowly moved towards the outside of the hall.

The Dragon King kicked it behind the buttocks, his eyes widened in anger, "That stinky boy! With his protection, the Soul Dew was stolen! If Master Zhulong knew..."

He just thought about it for a while, and felt the chills on his back. He shivered and collapsed on the chair, muttering: "It's best not to let him know."
