After entering the palace, Fang Moxuan was slightly surprised, not because of how gorgeous the palace was, but because there was no water in the palace.

The royal family in the sea of ​​ruins is a merman family, very similar to the merman in Chinese myths and legends, a creature with a fish tail and a human body.The merman family is mysterious and beautiful. The mermen produced by them are not wet in the water, and when they cry, their tears will turn into pearls.In Chinese myths and legends, there are many beautiful people about sharks.

However, the mermaid clan was considered a different species in Tiansheng Continent a long time ago. They were born with upper body human body and lower body fish tail. They are listed among the monster clan, but they are indeed monsters. The monsters in the sea will show submission to the mermaid clan, and the monster clan also respects them.

"There are sharks in the sea of ​​ruins, who can live for thousands of years, weeping and tearing into pearls, which are invaluable; the ointment burns the lamp, which is immortal for thousands of years; the shark silk weaves is as light as a feather; its scales can cure all diseases and prolong life. After death, it turns into clouds and rain, rises in the sky, and falls in the sea." —— "Xun Gu Dian"

I read this by accident in an ancient book. Although it has been beautified and exaggerated a lot, the mermaid clan has always lived in the deep sea, but the legend on the mainland has never stopped, especially the centrifuge city that is close to the Xuhai sea. , many legends about sharks come from here.

The merman's virtual crystal and shaman yarn have always been loved by monks, but thousands of years ago, the merman clan had cut off contact with the mainland, and they were strictly prohibited from going ashore.But there will always be some young sharks who can't stand it and run to the shore to play.

Speaking of this, I have to mention another peculiarity of the mermaids. Whether it is a monster with no intelligence or a monster with an enlightened intelligence, in the final analysis, the sky is still unable to transform into a human form, but the mermaids It seems to be blessed by nature. After landing, the tail of the fish will naturally turn into legs. Therefore, if it is not explained by myself, it is still difficult to see through the identity. However, this usually means that it is far away from the Xuhai, and it will turn into a fish tail if it is too long. , cannot be maintained for a long time.

Mermaids can live for thousands of years even if they don't practice transformation. The appearance of men and women in the clan is the best choice, and they can be a race favored by heaven.

Of course, it means that the mermaids are also very valuable, especially in the past hundred years. According to legend, even cultivators have rarely seen a shark.

"Shao Yun, you're awake..." Feeling something moving in his arms, he lowered his head to see Shao Yun who opened his eyes slightly.

"Master...they say you are dead, I don't believe it." I was startled by the sudden tears of my apprentice, and quickly comforted me: "Master, it's okay, be good, don't cry." Looking straight down Fang Moxuan was a little at a loss for Shao Yun who was in tears. He had never coaxed the child before, so how should he coax him, so he reached out and gently wiped away the tears still hanging on Shao Yun's face, and gently stroked Shao Yun's back.

"Whoever cried, I didn't." Shao Yun, who deeply felt that he was ashamed in front of his master, buried himself in Fang Moxuan's neck, no matter what Fang Moxuan said, he would not raise his head.

"I guess I was really scared this time." Fang Moxuan smiled wryly while holding Shao Yun. After staying with Shao Yun for so long, it was the first time he saw Shao Yun crying like this.

"It's really a master-student relationship. I am the master here. You can call me Chen. In our mermaid culture, it means sea." The voice came from behind Fang Moxuan, and when he turned around, he saw a The slightly frail young man looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, and his face was a little pale. At a glance, he could tell that his health was not very good, and his face became paler with the black robe on his body.

"Below, Mo Xuan, this is my apprentice Shao Yun. I don't know why you invited us here." The black-robed man who brought them stood behind the man who called himself Chen.

"I didn't invite you here, it was Qi who decided on his own, and I didn't intend to do anything to you..." He was interrupted by the man in black, who was Qi in Chen's mouth, in the middle of speaking.

"Chen, let me tell the story. I know you are not an ordinary person, you can follow me to the city lord's mansion, but the city lord didn't even notice, so I won't beat around the bush, just tell you straight."

Fang Moxuan's heart sank on the side: "Sure enough, he knew that that kind of concealment method can't fool the fit period." In fact, Fang Moxuan had already guessed in his heart, so he simply agreed to his request and invited himself to go with him, it must be nothing. Know.

Feeling that Shao Yun was a little nervous, he patted him on the back, and whispered comfortingly in his ear: "It's okay, don't be nervous." Feeling Shao Yun's nod, Fang Moxuan raised his head to signal Qi to continue.

"I need the strength in this child's body to heal our majesty." Qi said directly, preventing Chen who was at the side from speaking.

"Qi..."

"Your Majesty can't procrastinate any longer... Please rest assured that there will be no harm to this child." After stopping Chen, you said to Fang Moxuan.

"Your Majesty should have been deprived of his own power. Even though he has been supplemented with power, he has been losing it. Even with Shao Yun's power, it is just delaying time." The disadvantages of this plan can be seen at a glance, let alone Shao Yun He can't even use the power in his body, let alone let other people take it out. It is said that there will be no harm to Shao Yun, but no one can guarantee it [-]%.

"Qi, what he said is right. What's more, this child is still so young, and he can't bear the pain of being deprived of power. Besides, I have lived enough after more than 100 years. After this matter is resolved, I just want to ...Cough Kean walked quietly through the rest of the time, why do you have to do more crimes for me." As he spoke, he coughed a little bit uncontrollably.

"If I can find the Lingzhu that he was deprived of, maybe I can find a solution." Seeing the quarrel of the people in front of him, Fang Moxuan said.

"You can do it?!" Qi's voice sounded delighted.Even Chen, who was resigned to fate, had a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

"Well, so you can let us go." Fang Moxuan looked at the two who obviously couldn't suppress their joy.

"As long as you can be cured well, I guarantee that you will be the distinguished guest of the entire Xuhai. As long as you are in the Xuhai, you can walk by yourself." Suppressing her mood, she returned to her previous state, Qi said.

"That's good, but don't believe me playing tricks." He said casually, it's really interesting to see people struggling.

"You won't, unless you want to die here with your apprentice." The voice was threatening.

"Oh, your guy is really fierce, how dare I." Chen joked, but why did Chen blush, and even that Qi looked a little uncomfortable. "Did I say something wrong? But isn't Qi Chen's bodyguard in the first place? It's really strange." Fang Moxuan, who couldn't figure it out and didn't think about it, stayed temporarily under Chen's arrangement, but they visited the underwater scenery here, and the other side Gongsun Xisu is still looking for him in the city.

"It's broken!" Fang Moxuan, who was enjoying the special delicacies of the mermaid tribe with Shao Yun, lightly held his forehead, and then remembered that he forgot to notify Gongsun Xisu, and he was probably still looking for it.

"What's wrong, master?" He looked at his master with a puzzled expression.

"Ahem, it's nothing. But next time, remember not to sneak away, and you must tell someone if you know, I will be very worried about you." Said to Shao Yun, turning the topic around lightly.

"Well, I got it, master! But you must tell me in the future, otherwise I can't find you, what should I do?" Shao Yun, who was educated, still refused to give up the idea of ​​always knowing where his master was.

"..." Fang Moxuan who was silent: "You are always known where you are, so if you go to 'play', you will also be known. Absolutely not." After thinking about it carefully, he still planned to dismiss Shao Yun. application.

"My apprentice, when your own cultivation level has improved, you can send a message to the teacher, and then you will know where the teacher is." I decided to go over and talk about it.

Because, in order to help Chen, Fang Moxuan and Shao Yun lived in the palace temporarily, it was just like this kind of thing, is it really good for him to be there.

Looking at the City Lord of Centrifugal City, Chen and Qi in front of him. "Chen and the city lord obviously look like three-thirds, and the remaining seven-points are more like the woman in the painting that day. Should an outsider like me know the housework and leave? Anyway, after these days, he is almost the same. I know what's going on with the monster attack this time." Thinking like this, he planned to leave first, but Chen Dao said freely: "Since we're here, there's no need to avoid it anyway, it's nothing to be ashamed of." See Looking at the city lord, the kind face that had been smiling all the time was still somewhat unswerving.

But since the parties agreed, Fang Moxuan stayed. Anyway, except for him and Shao Yun, who are outsiders, they are more or less involved in the scene.

"This is what you want." The city lord had two jade boxes in his hand, one that Fang Moxuan had seen before was placed in the portrait, and the other jade box was only the size of a fist.

Qi went up to take the two brocade boxes, opened them for inspection and found something was wrong, she was a little annoyed: "Where's the princess's spirit beads! You don't plan to reconcile, do you?"

Fang Moxuan saw a gloomy look on Chen's face with sharp eyes, thought for a while and thought, "Could it be because of what Qi said?"

"Yunqin's... was taken by my father..." The next words were self-evident, and even Fang Moxuan, an outsider, could have expected it.

Sharks have a very long lifespan. When they are born, there will be a spirit pearl in their body, which is the source of their strength, but it attracts monks to covet it. The spirit pearl of sharks can delay death and prolong life. Even monks are afraid of death. , Many people have no period of cultivation due to the limitation of life span.

Hearing these words, Qi's face was full of anger, and he wanted to attack the city. Although Chen stopped him, the anger of a monk who was not in the stage of transformation was not something that a monk who was not in the transformation stage could bear.

"Let's go, don't step into the sea of ​​ruins in this life." Chen's voice was cold and he asked someone to take that person out.

"Chen..." After finishing speaking, Chen passed out immediately, but fortunately, Qi Yanji quickly supported her by his side.

"It's not too late. I'm afraid his body can't hold it anymore. Give me his Lingzhu." As soon as Chen passed out, he knew that he couldn't hold on anymore. As soon as the turquoise leaves melted into the spirit bead, the spirit bead, which had no brilliance at first, began to emit a hazy white light, and it felt a little warm in the hand.

After the Lingzhu recovered, she couldn't wait to let go, hesitated beside Chen for a while, as if confirming, and then gently melted into Chen's heart.
