Chapter 1356: The ancient scorpion, the ghost of the boat
"Someone was on this ship as well? Are they...living people?"
Caili's little face turned pale, and she asked softly: "Where did you find that someone had ever taken this boat?"
Xu Yang pointed to a square table in the cabin and said with a smile: "Did you see the oil lamp on this square table? If it is not used for many years, the wick of the oil lamp should be covered with dust. But now there are only faint black marks on the wick of this oil lamp. Obviously, someone ignited it not long ago."
After a pause, Xu Yang continued: "If it is an unconscious soul or a ghost, there is no need to light the oil lamp. Only living people like us will light the oil lamp out of habit."
It’s not that the strong Xiuxuan need this oil lamp to see things, but because of the habits of living people, sailing on a ghost ship on this endless sea of wind and rain, with a shiny and hot oil lamp accompanying them, it feels better.
"That person should have also traveled from Zhongzhou to Yingzhou. Who would he be?" Caili muttered, "Besides us, there are people who dare to take the path of immortals and demons?"
"Don't underestimate the heroes of the world," Xu Yang said with a smile, "Maybe, this is also an incredible genius. He wants to use the path of immortals and demons to hone himself."
The strong men above the World Honored One will be rejected by the path of immortals and demons and cannot walk because they are too powerful. Therefore, on the path of immortals and demons, they are usually explored by the powers of Xuanhuang level.
Suddenly, a misty song sounded again at the bow of the black ghost ship, accompanied by the sound of wind and rain.
"After you die, you will return to the mountain. Life is short and the years are wasted. Life has a life but nothing can die. My soul returns to look at the mountains and rivers..."
Caili shouted, grabbed Xu Yang's arm tightly, and said in a trembling voice: "Who is it? Who is singing?"
When the first silence sounded, Xu Yang rushed out of the cabin. He looked at the bow of the boat and saw a faint gray-clothed boatman holding a long pole in his hand, slowly sailing forward on the endless sea.
However, when Xu Yang approached, the phantom of the gray-clothed ship had long disappeared. Only the ethereal and distant song floated over the black ghost ship.
"Woooo... Xu Yang, I'm so scared..." Caili said with tears.
Xu Yang frowned and thought. The silent singing had sounded twice. Apart from Xu Yang and Caili, there was no third living person on the boat. So where did the singing come from?
"Maybe, there are really something unclean, entrenched on this ship. Depending on the situation, it is very different from ordinary ghosts."
If he really was a ghost, Xu Yang was sure. He raised four great ghosts that were comparable to the invincible Xuanhuang. As long as he did not meet the legendary ghost master, he would be sure to win any ghost.
In this way, the ghost ship sailed on the endless sea for a full seven days.
During these seven days, the strange singing sounds would sound every midnight. Although the lyrics are slightly different, the general artistic conception is consistent.
However, later, Caili did not find ghosts, but instead gradually calmed down, saving Xu Yang a lot of time.
"Look, Xu Yang, there should be land in front of you!" Caili pointed to a black shadow in front of the sea level and said excitedly, "We can finally leave this ghost ship!"
"Wait a minute!" Xu Yang suddenly grabbed Caili. With a roar, he soared into the air! Leaving the protection of the ghost ship, the violent mysterious tide suddenly squeezed towards the two of them madly, mixed with countless thunder and lightning, wind blades and heavy rain.
"What's going on?" Caili's voice seemed intermittent in the howling wind.
"Don't you feel it? Something was suddenly wrong in this ghost ship!" Xu Yang took a deep breath, and the Nine Heavenly Palace opened layer by layer, and a supreme furnace hung down thousands of auspicious clouds and auspicious air, blocking the violent mysterious tide outside.
Caili took a breath and looked down, screaming in surprise.
The ghost ship carrying the two of them was slowly trembling and turned into large grey mist! In the gray mist, figures in ancient animal skins slowly emerged and sank into the endless sea!
As these ancient figures disappeared, a slight and silence of singing sounded again.
"After the body is gone, I will return to the foot of the mountain. How high the sky is, how solemn the wind is. I hold the sword and the spiritual flag. The soul returns and guards the relatives forever."
This song was the clearest time that Xu Yang and Caili heard along the way several times.
"It seems that this ghost ship is transformed by ghost souls. I don't know which powerful man's arrangement has made thousands of ghost souls turn into ghost ships and ferry at the Huangquan Ferry day and night." Xu Yang sighed.
The two of them flew in the air, fortunately they were approaching the land here, and the power of the mysterious tide was not as violent as the voyage of the Endless Sea.
"Xu Yang, is Yingzhou ahead?" Caili laughed, "I didn't expect that the ghost ship would go quite quickly."
Near the sea area ahead, huge oval green leaves floated on the sea surface, as if they were duckweeds that had been magnified thousands of times, making the sea water look green.
Flying against the violent mysterious tide, it was too difficult, Xu Yang and Caili stepped on these huge circular leaves and walked forward with the force.
Suddenly, one of the leaves suddenly flipped open, and a green shadow arrow shot out, piercing Xu Yang's chest! The speed was extremely fast. Until it barely hit Xu Yang's chest, a violent sound of breaking through the air sounded. It can be seen that this green shadow arrow had exceeded the speed of sound.
"Bang!"
Xu Yang felt a shock all over his body, as if he was hit by a master of Xuanhuang-level, and his body couldn't help but stagger: "What a guy, what a strong power!"
However, when this green arrow shot to Xu Yang's chest, it was blocked by the supreme furnace above Xu Yang's head, the auspicious air hanging down, and did not cause substantial damage to Xu Yang.
However, what shocked Xu Yang was that the green shadow was caused by pure power, and his spiritual sense did not sense any fluctuations in his mysterious power! What kind of creature was it? The attack of the physical body was as good as the attack of the Xuan Emperor's powerful man who controlled the mysterious power?
With a "slam" sound, a thin and small figure suddenly emerged from the sea water under the huge circular blade that was opened! Its pair of small green eyes stared at Xu Yang fiercely, revealing a brutal killing**.
"Is this...the alien creature in the sea?"
