The momentum between the two of them continued to rise, as if there was a real fire between them. Zhang Tao, who always claimed to be a "gentleman", also frowned more and more, with no intention of giving in.
"stop!"
Before the two could fight, they were pulled apart by Zhang Fu. Perhaps Zhang Miao's strength was too strong, so Zhang Fu pressed on Zhang Miao and knocked his head with a bang.
"Brother calls us like this every day, what disease do you have?"
Zhang Miao is not very smart. Now that they are here, they have to rely on the hand-drawn drawings in Zhang Tao's hand. If Zhang Fu is the only one who thinks, he may not be able to understand his thoughts at all.
Either Zhang Fu was beaten too hard, or Zhang Miao woke up on his own, and his aura also dissipated, but his eyes were full of redness, but it only took a moment for him to return to normal.
Zhang Tao and Zhang Fu looked at each other in confusion when they saw Zhang Miao changing like this.
How could it become like this in just one night?
Seeing that everyone was quiet, Zhang Tao took out the hand-drawn drawing in his hand again and showed the two people the changes in the drawing. In the drawing, there was only one stone, surrounded by a blank space, except for some undulating lines at the top. .
Zhang Miao looked at it for a while and couldn't see anything, so he ran to the side to rest alone. Only Zhang Fu observed carefully, not missing any detail.
"What are the lines in this painting?" Zhang Fu asked softly, pointing to the lines.
Zhang Tao shook his head. The pictures in his hands kept changing in the past few days, and even he couldn't find any pattern.
"I don't know, it was like this when I woke up in the morning..."
But before he finished speaking, he saw that the scene in the painting changed again. It was not just the monotonous stones and a few curves. In the eyes of everyone, those lines seemed to be alive, slowly surging. It seems like waves in the ocean, perfected with every stroke.
And a creature also appeared next to the stone. Judging from the outline, it seemed to be some kind of creature.
The painting speed was extremely slow. The three of them waited from early morning until noon before they could draw the outlines of those creatures. The whole shape was like silk and satin, intertwined like a shuttle. It was only at the last moment of putting pen to paper that they suddenly realized that this creature was exactly the one in the sea. fish.
"The Blood Spirit Jade is in the sea...but why is it so big?"
Zhang Fu pointed at the sea fish that took up most of the picture, frowning slightly.
"Perhaps it was affected by the Blood Spirit Jade?"
After hearing Zhang Tao's explanation, Zhang Fu also nodded secretly, and only this explanation made sense.
"This is better than us being trapped here all the time. This painting says that the Blood Jade is in the sea, so it is correct. After all, it is the winner's thing."
When talking about the winner, Zhang Fu also nodded.
Zhang Tao put away the scroll and raised his hand to his forehead to block the hot sunlight. He looked up at the sky. The dazzling light made it difficult to see the sky. "At this time, most of the fishermen are at sea, and we can only stay until night to take action."
"Let's break up."
After Zhang Tao finished speaking, Zhang Miao glanced at Zhang Tao out of the corner of his eye. He seemed to want to step forward and say something, but after hesitating for a moment, he felt something was wrong and walked to the other side alone.
Zhang Fu did not walk away, but looked at Zhang Tao quietly. He needed an explanation.
"Zhang Fu..." Zhang Tao closed his eyes after seeing Zhang Miao leave. After a moment, he turned around again, leaving only his back facing Zhang Fu. While bending his elbow, he pinched the bridge of his nose with his hand. His brows were furrowed, and a sense of fatigue immediately surged into his body, "I didn't want to argue with him just now, but for some reason, I got angry naturally."
Before Zhang Fu could continue to speak, Zhang Tao continued: "I didn't control my anger. There's something wrong with that."
After that, Zhang Tao raised his head and turned around. What caught Zhang Fu's eyes was a pair of bloodshot eyes, extremely scarlet...
"What you said is true."
"There's something wrong with this village!"
……………………
fishing village.
The midday sun shines down on the sea, which is very beautiful. Somehow, the sea water here is very clear, but also a little red. However, it is also a world of jungle under the sea, and it is normal for some fish to die.
Snow-white waves rolled to the shore, and the fishing boats docked on the shore were shaking slightly.
Several fishermen came out of the village, skillfully preparing the tools for going out to sea, and they couldn't help but joke a little while they were busy.
"Lao Xun, aren't you going to sea today?"
Next to the fishing boat moored nearby, a fisherman wearing coarse linen clothes stood alone, looking at the sea in the distance, lost in thought.
As if he heard the calls of other fishermen, the fisherman came back to his senses. His feet made some movement, but he shrank back the next moment. After a moment of silence, he shook his head slightly and said: "You go ahead, I I won’t go.”
After saying that, he turned back to face the sea.
The other fishermen looked at each other, and after struggling for a while, they still took a long breath, until one of them took a step forward and said: "Chen Xun, you are a few years older than me, so I will call you." Brother Xun, those who work in our industry have to be open-minded. No one can say whether we can come back, but we have to eat, right?"
After some persuasion, Chen Xun remained unmoved and continued to stare at the sea in front of him in a daze. The other fishermen shook their heads helplessly and drove their fishing boats out to sea together.
"Uncle Chen."
A familiar voice came from behind him, and he turned around to look. At some point, Yi Xifeng appeared beside him, with a shy smile on his face.
"Is it you? You haven't left yet?"
"Chen Bo, don't be weird. We will definitely leave when our companions arrive." Yi Xifeng naturally found a stone to put behind his butt and sat next to Chen Xun.
"But Uncle Chen, why don't you go fishing with them?"
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding area suddenly became quiet, leaving only the sound of the waves crashing silently. Chen Xun did not answer, but just looked into the distance to himself. His hands had already turned into fists. He might have used too much force, and even his arms were trembling slightly.
"That day, I went to sea with my son, my father, and they... couldn't come back."
The voice was not loud, it could be said to be a little quiet, but the sentence composed of these few words made Yi Xifeng not know how to comfort him.
He patted Chen Xun's shoulder to express comfort. Then I looked up at the sky again, the sun was shining brightly.
This was the first time he had doubts since he came to this village. No matter how you look at it, this place is an illusion, a formation, but apart from being unable to get out, it seems to be no different from the outside world.
Last night, Zhong Lingxi also told him some of his findings.
"The village a hundred years ago..."
Yi Xifeng frowned, feeling as if he had caught something important, but he took it out in an instant. He couldn't remember what to ask. (End of chapter)
