In the blink of an eye, when the day of going to sea came, Yan Jun arranged for many villagers to accompany him to the beach to see him off, not only for Qi Lu and others, but also to accompany them more.
After all, they went to sea this time, and it is likely that they will never return.
It was not until today that Qi Lu learned that the people of Hailong Village were not all fishermen, and some of them responded to the government's call to reclaim land from the sea, planting kelp and raising some marine fish that could be bought at a good price in the coastal areas.
Fortunately, the sky is beautiful, there are no big storms in the past two days, Qi Lu and Xu Chunlin came to the seaside and found that the sea was quiet, and the waves on the shore were like a lover's hand brushing the beach, such weather was very suitable for going to sea.
Xu Chunlin got on the boat first and went to check the luggage on the ship.
Yan Jun had already made all the things according to the list he had written, and put them in the boat a day earlier.
Xu Chunlin saw that the luggage was quite sufficient, so he took out the diving suits separately and put them on the deck in case of emergency.
Qi Lu and Lao Wu then got on the boat, and the villagers also got on the boat to say goodbye to them, Qi Lu and Lao Wu didn't say anything, but Xu Chunlin waved to the villagers like a hero, and showed off in the crowd.
Qi Lu couldn't help but feel a little disgusted when he saw his swaggering appearance, he avoided the crowd on the boat, and looked at the high-rise buildings in the direction of the city boredly at the bow of the boat, thinking thoughtlessly for a while.
Ding Xiaolan came to Qi Lu's side, took out something from his satchel and handed it to Qi Lu.
"Take it with you, it will bring you good luck."
Qi Lu looked at the fluffy tiger toy with nine tails in his hand, and was speechless in surprise.
It took a long time before he asked Ding Xiaolan with doubts: "Kunlun Mountain God Lu Wu, why did you give me this?"
Ding Xiaolan said in a slightly choked voice: "It is a souvenir given to me by my father, and I have always kept it at home."
This time, for some reason, I actually brought it in.
Take it with you, I hope you can return safely. ” Hearing this, Qi Lu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and his face returned to natural.
He grinned and said, "A little mountain god, how much mana can he have, it's not bad if he doesn't drag me down."
Before he finished speaking, Ding Xiaolan had already covered his mouth with her little hand.
"Don't talk nonsense, my dad told me that Lu Wu will be the patron saint of my life, and now I hope this god can protect you as well."
"Come on, I don't need the protection of the gods."
Qi Lu still wanted to make a joke, but when he saw Ding Xiaolan's sad face, he said in a slower tone: "Don't worry, it's not the first time I've faced danger, and I won't be in trouble this time."
Besides, I don't believe this dragon is even more powerful than Hu Lei and the Demon Leader. ” "But I always have a bad premonition" "Shhh Qi Lu pretended to be relaxed and said: "If I am lucky, I can still bring back the Jiaolong Cultivation Orb, in that case, we will make a fortune, and then you will have no problem buying a luxury villa in the city center." ” The more relaxed Qi Lu said, the more worried Ding Xiaolan became, and her eyes were moist for some time.
At this moment, Ding Xiaolan suddenly had an inexplicable impulse in her heart, she really wanted to throw herself into Qi Lu's arms, or give him a kiss.
But the reserve of women made her stand beside Qi Lu a little helplessly, not knowing how to express the worries in her heart.
The sound of the motor gradually sounded, and it was Xu Chunlin starting the engine in the cab.
After the villagers finished saying the words of blessing, they disembarked from the boat and dispersed.
Ding Xiaolan also reluctantly got off the boat, until the boat that Qi Lu was riding left the dock, and she waved on the shore.
Qi Lu leaned on the railing and looked at Ding Xiaolan with complicated eyes, and only when she turned into a tiny white dot in her field of vision did her face show a gloomy expression.
"Hey, why come with a sad face, take a sip."
Lao Wu walked over and handed him the wine jug in his hand.
Qi Lu raised his head and took a big sip of wine, and suddenly felt that there was a different taste in his heart.
Lao Wu glanced at Xu Chunlin in the cab, and asked Qi Lu in a low voice: "I was exposed just now."
"Nope."
Qi Lu played with the toy in his hand and said thoughtfully: "Perhaps, I have crossed paths with Ding Xiaolan's father before. ” "We have been walking yin and yang for so many years, I don't know how many people we have dealt with, and it is possible that you have been in contact with her father before."
"yes, I'm going to talk to her when I'm free."
Qi Lu was stunned for a moment, and then said: "However, I really have an ominous feeling when I go to sea this time." ” "The mana is not as good as before, are you afraid that you will not have confidence in dealing with youkai?"
"No, I feel like I'm smelling my hometown, as if someone is calling us out of the dark."
Hearing this, Lao Wu's eyes also dimmed, he turned his head to look at the blue sea in front of the boat, and stopped making a sound.
They sailed around the nearby waters for hours, and apart from a few fishing boats, they did not encounter the terrifying madwoman at all.
The sea was as calm as ever, like a gentle beast sleeping.
Qi Lu walked into the cab and asked Xu Chunlin: "Do you know where crazy women appear more often?"
"She appeared randomly, with no fixed location."
Xu Chunlin said: "Let's look for it again, but if we can't do it, we will wait for the night to fall." ” "Okay, you keep your guard up, I'll go sleep first."
Qi Lu remembered that the old village chief had said that this evil spirit was now limited to the night, so he wanted to take a break to nourish his spirits, and he would have the energy to deal with this monster later.
I don't know how long it took, Qi Lu, who was asleep, heard a woman's singing in his ears.

He was shaken, and this strange singing voice pierced his nerves like a sharp needle, giving him a sense of intimate familiarity, and at the same time, an even stronger terror hit his heart.
Qi Lu hurriedly flipped his left hand, and the spirit talisman was already in his hand, and at the same time, his figure swept onto the deck.
All the movements were done in one go, but he didn't know why he was moving so quickly, why he had lingering expectations and fears in his heart.
It was already dark, and a faint green light appeared not far away, and the song seemed to come from that direction.
Xu Chunlin stopped walking, and the people also came to the bow of the ship to check the movement ahead.
Qi Lu asked, "Are the monsters going to appear?"
"Yes."
Xu Chunlin said excitedly: "This song is the monster's trick to confuse the fishermen, it must be lurking at the bottom of the sea near here, waiting to give us a fatal blow." ” Qi Lu looked at Xu Chunlin in surprise, thinking to himself why he didn't have a scared expression at the moment when the great enemy was there, could it be that he was hiding a magic weapon that would win Lao Wu walked over and pointed to the shining place of the green light and asked, "Master Xu, will the monster hide there?"
"Possibly, this light is very eerie, not like the normal phosphorescent light emitted by the creatures of the ocean."
Qi Lu said: "Then what are we waiting for, drive the boat over to see what is going on." ” "Okay" Xu Chunlin had this intention, he turned around and walked into the wheelhouse, adjusted the angle of the rudder, and drove in the direction of the green light.
Qi Lu also stared nervously at the place where the light source was, ready to deal with unexpected situations at any time.
Lao Wu was not as nervous as him, but bit his ear and whispered: "Don't you feel familiar with this singing?"
Lao Wu's words hit Qi Lu's sore spot, and he had been avoiding this fact in his heart.
Lao Wu said another sentence that shocked him even more: "It can't be a god from his hometown, who has been reduced to being a monster here."
Qi Lu finally couldn't control the emotions in his heart, and the hand holding the talisman fell weakly, and his breathing became thicker.
He muttered, "The singing is very soft, without a hint of murder. ” While the two were talking, the boat was close to the location where they had seen the green light just now, and Qi Lu turned on the lights on the boat and searched around the sea, but he didn't find anything.
Instead, the eerie green light suddenly went out, as if it had never existed.
The singing also disappeared, and Qi Lu and Lao Wu stared widely, but they both instinctively sensed that danger was coming.
"Look at that" Lao Wu suddenly pointed to the back, Qi Lu heard the sound, and found that the strange green light was actually lit up not far behind the boat.
Xu Chunlin also saw it, as soon as he gritted his teeth, the boat drove in that direction, the distance was getting closer and closer, and where the searchlight shone, a small strangely shaped island and reef was exposed.
"Strange thing, I've been to this sea many times before, and there can't be a reef."
Xu Chunlin stopped the boat again and walked onto the deck to discuss with Qi Lu.
Qi Lu said: "This is definitely not a normal island and reef. ” "I think this island and reef are strange, and eighty percent of them are ecstasy arrays arranged for us by monsters."
Xu Chunlin spoke his mind.
Qi Lu nodded and said, "Why don't we go to the sea and take a look?"
"Okay."
Xu Chunlin did not object.
Lao Wu disagreed, he shook his head and said, "If you don't go, I will take care of you on the boat to prevent the monsters from destroying the ship." ” Qi Lu sneered, knowing that he had committed the mistake of being timid again, so he said unceremoniously: "We have to advance and retreat together, and no one wants to be a deserter."
The trio put on wetsuits and waterproof flashlights and prepared to dive into the sea.
Qi Lu only admired Xu Chunlin's foresight at this time, he didn't expect that the diving suit would really come in handy at this time, instead of thinking that he was a tool when he was escaping.
But Qi Lu also found the difference between Xu Chunlin, that is, he also carried a very small diving bag on his body, which was bulging, and he didn't know what it contained.
It may be the magic weapons and charms of the enemy, at this time, Qi Lu can only think on the good side.
Even if Xu Chunlin kept a hand behind their backs, Qi Lu didn't want to destroy the cooperation between them.
Qi Lu was the first to jump into the sea, followed by Xu Chunlin, and Lao Wu was the last to jump down.
Before going to the sea, he also deliberately checked the movement around him, and after making sure that there was no danger, he dived into the sea with them.
After a while, they swam to the vicinity of the reef.
Without any hindrance, they landed on the reef without any problems.
It's just a coral reef with a radius of a few tens of meters, interspersed with some strangely shaped rocks.
They stayed on it for a moment, but they didn't see anything dangerous happening, and the green light and singing didn't reappear.
Qi Lu proposed: "Why don't we dive down and have a look?"
Xu Chunlin and Lao Wu did not object, so they dived to the bottom of the sea and went downstream little by little.
Unexpectedly, what surfaced on this island and reef was only the tip of the iceberg, but the more you dive into the sea, the more you find that it is getting bigger and bigger.
It's like a mountain on land, and you can't see the edge with the naked eye. freeti0 t1706231537:
