Origin Chapter 432: Xinyue Temple
Because it was still early, I was not busy going to the East China Sea. I turned around from the sea first. At this time, there were few people rushing to the sea, and the tide was low, leaving a lot of seafood on the beach. The barbarians only ate fish and shellfish, etc. There are a few kinds of seafood, crabs, they are afraid to eat. No one catches them, so the number is large. Crabs with big bowls can be seen everywhere.
Although the dinner last night was plentiful, Wu Zhongyuan didn't eat much. He only drank a belly of wine, drank a few pee, and it was gone. When he felt hungry, he caught a few crabs. Naturally, he will not be roasted honestly and struggle violently.
It felt too cruel, so I changed the method, tied it with straw rope, buried it in the sand, and burned it from the top. This method is good and it can be cooked.
Crabs are already delicious. Baked is better than boiled. However, you should not eat too much seafood. Eating too much will lead to gout.
When I was full, I wanted to go to the toilet. Before returning to the country, he was also curious about what the ancients used to wipe their buttocks. After returning, he learned that there was also grass paper in ancient times. After drying, hemp leaves are similar to modern toilet paper, but before using When kneading, you have to add a small amount of water when kneading, otherwise it will easily break.
Can you wipe it clean? Yes, it's very clean. It's not because the quality of the hemp leaves is good, but because people at this time have good diet and work and rest habits, and the food contains more plant fiber, which is not as greasy as what modern people eat. , And at this time, people do not stay up late, staying up late is not a good habit, and the gastrointestinal function will be seriously disturbed.
Eat, drink and sleep, summon the blue dragon armor at sunrise, put on clothes, and set off.
This is not the first time he has flown over the sea, but when he and Li Bie came here before, they only flew over the Bohai Bay. This time, he is going to the deep sea. If I say uneasy, I am not very uneasy. After all, he is also very concerned about the sea. It's not that he doesn't know everything. He still knows the general situation of the East China Sea. He also knows where the Korean Peninsula and the Japanese island are. To say that he is not nervous at all, no, he is still a little nervous. After all, what he understands is the modern East China Sea, not the East China Sea five thousand years ago. of unknown creatures are definitely more.
Have to fly a little higher, too close to the sea so that some sea monster can rush out and swallow it.
At this time, there was no map. The reference provided by the old blind man was the time and location. The old blind man flew westward from Turtle Island in a bird and flew for two hours to the 20 miles south of the estuary. Fan He flew eastward from 20 miles due south of the mouth of the sea. Since he was not in a hurry, he was not flying very fast, and only maintained a speed roughly equal to that of birds.
Flying for hundreds of miles, I didn't find any large sea monsters in the sea, but I couldn't see it, but it didn't mean that I didn't. After all, sea monsters live underwater, and it is impossible for them to hop on the sea surface.
There are endless seas in all directions. In this environment, people will have loneliness and fear. Wu Zhongyuan is no exception.
Fear comes from the instinct to seek good luck and avoid evil. Only fools don't know fear, but in the face of fear, people will have two reactions, one is to avoid, and the other is to fight back. The former is a coward, the latter is The warrior, Wu Zhongyuan, naturally belongs to the latter group. When he sensed fear in his heart, he exuded spiritual energy and dived down quickly.
He wears the blue dragon armor, which has the ability to pierce water. With his current ability, the blue dragon armor can carve out a nine-foot radius of sea water. Due to the speed of diving, many sea fish have no time to swim away. After retreating, jumping from the dry seabed.
Different from inland rivers and lakes, there is very little silt on the bottom of the sea, and the footsteps are very soft but not sinking. Wu Zhongyuan stood on the bottom of the sea and looked up and found that the sea above had closed, and the range of the Qinglongjia water was nine feet. In the square and circle, the front, back, left and right can be opened up to nine feet, and only nine feet can be opened up. Beyond this range, the sea will automatically close.
It's interesting, and I have a great interest in playing. I motivate the blue dragon armor and swept eastward from the bottom of the sea. The terrain in the sea is actually very similar to the land, and there are also undulating plains and mountains.
However, he stopped not long after he ran out. He was not afraid of trouble and didn't need to cause trouble. It was no different from Nezha's troubles. It disturbed people's normal life and work order. It was really finding fault.
In addition, the Qinglong armor consumes aura. The faster the running speed, the more serious the aura is consumed. It is not the same concept as the aura consumed by flying over the land, not several times or dozens of times. The difference is hundreds of times of rapid consumption. The reason for this is undoubtedly because the resistance of water is much greater than that of air, which is an 800-fold difference.
A rough estimate of the depth of the sea water should be around 30 feet at the same time as the water emerges. The gap between this data and modern data is not very large. Among the four seas, the South China Sea is the deepest, measured in kilometers. The East China Sea is second, about 200 meters away. The Yellow Sea is once again, but only a few dozen meters. The shallowest is the Bohai Sea, which is only ten meters.
The unknown breeds fear. Some people are afraid of the dark just because they don't know what's in the dark and what's going on at the bottom of the ocean.
The flight of birds mainly relies on magnetic field navigation, and they fly in a straight line, so Wu Zhongyuan also strives to fly in a straight line when flying, and there will be errors, but it can be reduced as much as possible.
There are not seagulls everywhere in the sea. As long as you see a large group of seagulls, there will definitely be islands and reefs around. There are no big islands along the way, but there are a few small islands and reefs. The environment is similar to modern times. Nothing fancy either.
Wu Zhongyuan arrived at his destination in the morning. In all fairness, he was somewhat surprised. He didn't expect to find this island so smoothly.
The shape of Turtle Island is really like a turtle. The so-called resemblance is not an ordinary image. The island consists of one large, five and six parts, with four legs, a head, and a carapace. It is roughly estimated that it covers an area of about 200 acres. It is a medium sized island.
A thick fog lingers around the island, similar to smoke, but it is actually a poisonous miasma. Although he is immune to all poisons, he can sense the presence of the poisonous gas. This kind of miasma is something he has never encountered before. It must have come from the bottom of the sea.
Through the miasma, the situation on the island can be seen at a glance. Those barbarians did not see it wrong back then. There is indeed a city on the island. It is located in the middle area of the island, but it is not a crowded city. It is more like an ancient palace. The reason why it is said is because most of these stone buildings have collapsed, and the remaining parts are covered with thick moss and have not recovered their appearance.
There are many fruit trees on the island, and the planting is relatively regular, and the signs of human management are obvious.
Although there is miasma on the periphery, there is no miasma on the island. There are also special varieties among those fruit trees. It is winter now, but some of them are still green and bearing fruit.
It is a bit exaggerated for the barbarians to describe the horror of Turtle Island. The feeling here is not scary, and there is no ghost crying in the daytime. The situation here is only dilapidated and desolate, as if coming to a deserted place for a long time. twilight village.
There is a mountain on the island, and the dilapidated stone building was built in the middle of the island, on the side of the mountain. There is also a pavilion pedestal left on the top of the mountain. There are several similar pedestals in other parts of the island, but only the pedestal is left, and the buildings above are gone. There must be many beautiful buildings here. But now it's broken.
The direction of Turtle Island is from the east to the west. There is a tall stele on the easternmost reef of the island. The stele is three feet high and has obvious edges and corners. It is definitely not a natural formation.
Because of the distance and the wrong angle, Wu Zhongyuan could not see whether there was any text on the stele, but according to common sense, the name of the island should be engraved on it.
According to the size of the island and the remaining buildings, it is obviously not a place where ordinary people live and multiply, but it should be a place where some foreigners once lived.
After a general observation, he urged Qinglongjia to go to the east of the island.
He wanted to go over and read the text on the stone tablet, but stopped halfway, and he suddenly saw a person.
The peaks on the island are east-west, low in the west and high in the east. The main building is located on the mountainside. There are several pavilions left on the top of the mountain. To the east of the mountain is a steep stone wall, about 100 feet high. On the stone platform, there are two people standing on the stone platform.
One of them was wearing white clothes and was looking east. The angle was wrong, so he couldn't see his head or face, but he had a graceful figure and should be a young woman.
Beside her stood a man in gray, stooped and head bowed.
Take a closer look, no, the man in gray is not a human, but a gray-haired monkey, much larger than ordinary monkeys.
The woman in white has been standing still, and the gray-haired monkey stood beside her and waited quietly.
It is not surprising that a woman Wu Zhongyuan appeared, because the Yi people had heard someone playing the qin before, and they also heard the woman crying and laughing, which means that there are women on the island.
But the monkey is wrong, because according to the old blind man, there is a bird on the island that can transform into a man in black. It is clearly a bird. How can a monkey come out?
Having doubts in his heart, he looked around. The temperature on the island was much higher than the outside world, and there were many tall trees growing around. Soon he found a black figure in the forest on the right side of the stone platform where the woman was standing. .
According to the position of this person, this person is obviously deliberately hiding his figure, and he does not want the woman in white to see it. What the **** is going on? What kind of relationship is it with monkeys?
At this time, neither the two nor the monkey found him, so Wu Zhongyuan did not rush to the east, landed slowly, and hid in the forest to observe from afar.
The woman in white was like a statue, motionless. It could be seen that the monkey wanted to move, but he forcibly restrained and did not move. When noon came, the monkey took the initiative to stretch out his hand and pulled the woman in white to move up the stairs to the top of the cliff.
The man in black follows, watching from a distance.
As soon as the black clothed man moved, Wu Zhongyuan could see the appearance of this man.
When the black-clothed man followed the white-clothed woman and the monkey away, Wu Zhongyuan went around to the east to look at the stone tablet.
There are words on the stele. The four big characters are very old and clumsy. If you check carefully, the engraving is the Xinyue Divine Palace...
