"So that's it."
Lan Yunxin didn't show any strange expression, and her tone was soft and ethereal when she spoke.
"By the way, Brother Lotte, you don't look like ordinary people. You don't know what you are doing here?"
Jiang Rulong asked.
Several people were not surprised by Jiang Rulong's question. After all, the four of them were walking together, and they looked like they were no ordinary travelers.
Lotte said:
"We were ordered by our teacher to go out for training. We heard that there were sirens in the South China Sea, so we wanted to come over and see them."
Although the two brothers didn't look like bad guys, as the saying goes, it's important to be on guard against others, and Lotte didn't tell the truth to them.
Jiang Rulong didn't think too much about whether what Letian said was true or false. After all, they were strangers and had only known them for a quarter of an hour. Even if what Letian said was a lie, it was human nature.
But Jiang Rulong still gave them a few instructions:
"Then you should be careful. The South China Sea has not been very peaceful recently, and the sea monsters are ready to move. In the past few months, groups of sea monsters have often been wandering in the sea outside the city. They even attacked the city several times, but they were defeated by us. Return."
"how so?"
Letian was also a little surprised when he heard Jiang Rulong's words and said:
"I came to Nanhai a few years ago. Wasn't it quite peaceful at that time?"
Jiang Rulong shook his head and said:
"I don't know. In fact, there hasn't been any war between us and the sea monsters in recent years. There are even businessmen making deals with some sea monsters. After all, some things in the sea are still valuable on the ground, and the sea monsters also like some things on the ground. produced things.
I just don’t know why, but since the beginning of spring this year, Siren’s temper has suddenly become a lot more violent, and several groups of businessmen who went to sea have not come back! "
Speaking of this, Jiang Rulong and Jiang Ruhai both had a look of worry on their faces.
"this……"
Bu Xiaotian and the four of them looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
"From the looks of it, you must be planning to go to sea, right?"
Jiang Rulong calmed down his expression and said seriously:
"I advise you not to go to sea easily if you don't have any important reasons.
After all, the sea is dominated by sea monsters. Even if you are not ordinary people, a single sea monster is not your opponent, but there are endless sea monsters in the sea, and no one knows how many there are.
If you must go out to sea and encounter sea monsters, no matter how many there are, stay away from them as soon as possible and never fight them!
Once entangled by them, they will inevitably be consumed to death under the endless siege of sea monsters! "
Seeing that Jiang Rulong's reminder was indeed a good intention, Letian nodded and thanked:
"Thank you, Brother Rulong, for reminding us, we will definitely be careful!"
Jiang Rulong didn't know if Lotte really listened to his words, and he couldn't say anything more. He just said:
"Well, you must be more careful!"
The four Lotte people no longer had any doubts, so they did not want to delay any more and said goodbye:
"In this case, we won't disturb the two eldest brothers anymore, and we'll take our leave now!"
When Jiang Rulong saw that they wanted to leave, he no longer wanted to stay. He cupped his hands and said:
"I wish you all the best, see you soon!"
The four of them also returned the gift and said:
"See you later!"
After saying that, he walked towards the city.
After entering Haizhou City, a few people found that the city was indeed very prosperous, with shops on both sides of the streets and numerous pedestrians.
Along the way, I saw that most of the shops were selling specialties from the sea, including pearls, shells, sea vegetables and fish. All kinds of things that are very rare in the north are dazzling here.
There were many people buying and selling things in these shops, and it seemed that business was indeed good. However, they noticed that there were a few special shops among these shops, which were more lively than other shops.
The four of them stopped for a moment in front of one of the very busy shops and took a clear look at the items in the shop. They immediately understood the reason why this shop was so busy. It turned out that this shop did not sell seafood like other shops. What they sold was actually It's a mountain product.
Haizhou City is adjacent to the South China Sea. There are only a few large mountains within thousands of miles, but monsters are entrenched in them, making it extremely dangerous.
It is obviously not easy to get these things. If you are not skilled enough, you may not only gain nothing but lose your life!
They didn't wander around the city much. They found a secluded inn and stayed in it. They planned to repair some things and discuss their next trip to the South China Sea.
...
In Bu Xiaotian's room, four people were sitting at a small wooden table, discussing something.
"no!"
Lan Yunxin felt a little excited, frowned slightly, looked at Bu Xiaotian, and said:
“Junior Brother Bu, I know it’s for our own good that you don’t let us go to the South China Sea with you and Lotte, but the South China Sea is already very dangerous, and now there’s something strange happening with the Kraken.
But if we go with you, you can at least be a little more sure of escaping unscathed. If it's just the two of you, once you encounter a sea monster attack, it's impossible to deal with it!
I will never watch you die! "
She looked a little angry. During the past month or so of traveling together, she had always been very calm and had never spoken to anyone else in such a tone.
Letian and Faming both looked at Lan Yunxin in surprise, with thoughtful expressions on their faces.
It was also the first time that Bu Xiaotian saw Lan Yunxin looking angry. Although there was a bit of displeasure on her face, it did not affect her fairy-like beauty at all. She even added a touch of uniqueness because of her emotions. Such a temperament.
Although Lan Yun was angry and felt a little guilty, Bu Xiaotian had no intention of giving in and still firmly persuaded:
"Senior Sister Lan, you also know that in normal times, although the trip to the South China Sea is dangerous, with the strength of the few of us, it is not very difficult to escape unscathed.
However, things are no longer as usual now. The sea monster has become violent and unpredictable. The danger of this trip has not only increased several times?
It’s okay if we didn’t know about the Kraken before, but now that we know it, we have no reason to let you and Brother Faming take risks with us! "
Lan Yunxin usually looked at Qingli and was gentle, but she didn't expect that she was actually a stubborn person at heart. She insisted:
"Anyway, I don't agree with you taking risks on your own. Unless you give up this trip to the South China Sea, I will follow you even if you don't let me go!"
Seeing that Lan Yunxin was really resolute, Bu Xiaotian felt helpless and looked at Letian for help, hoping that he could help him persuade Lan Yunxin.
Lotte naturally saw Bu Xiaotian's request for help, but he rolled his eyes. Instead of helping to dissuade him, he muttered:
"Uh... Actually, I think the South China Sea is not as dangerous as they say.
Think about it, most of the people in this city are ordinary people. Even if there are some cultivators, the number is limited in comparison. And this Haizhou City is very long and narrow. The city wall on the sea side alone is hundreds of miles long. They definitely don't have Find a way to defend all the places.
But over the years, Haizhou City has never fallen. Although there are practitioners who have contributed to defending the city, I think the ones who have made the greatest contribution should be ordinary martial arts practitioners like Jiang Rulong and Jiang Ruhai, right?
Since they have been able to guard this big city for countless years, the sea monster they are talking about is not very powerful. Even if they are telling the truth, they are not cultivators after all, and their vision is limited. There is inevitably some exaggeration in their words. As long as we are careful, There shouldn't be much of a problem. "
After listening to Letian's analysis, which was obviously biased in favor of Lan Yunxin, Bu Xiaotian looked at him in shock.
Lan Yunxin's expression on the other side softened a lot.
"Lotte you..."
Bu Xiaotian was about to say something, but Letian completely ignored Bu Xiaotian's reaction and interrupted him with a wave of his hand, saying:
"Besides, Senior Sister Lan and Senior Brother Fa Ming are both famous disciples like you, and they have their own considerations in mind. We shouldn't be their masters without authorization!
Senior Sister Lan, Senior Brother Faming, do you think this is true? "
"Amitabha!"
Fa Ming proclaimed the Buddha's name, clasped his hands together, looked at Bu Xiaotian, and said:
"What Junior Brother Lotte said is indeed reasonable. Although the poor monk is a monk and has nothing to do with the world, he is not willing to follow other people's arrangements.
The poor monk knows that Junior Brother Bu Xiaotian has good intentions, but as both disciples of the righteous path, the poor monk will never sit idly by and watch the two of them fall into danger! "
Although Lan Yunxin did not speak, the look of approval in his eyes was the same. It seemed that he was determined to go to the South China Sea with them.
"well!"
Fa Ming had already said this, and Bu Xiaotian seemed to be overreaching if he refused again. He sighed helplessly and just sat there and stopped talking.
Ignoring the sulky Bu Xiaotian, Letian and the other two discussed some details about going to sea. Lan Yunxin and Faming left the room and went back to their rooms to rest.
However, Lan Yunxin glanced at Bu Xiaotian inexplicably before leaving, but Bu Xiaotian was so troubled at the time that he didn't notice Lan Yunxin's slight movement at all.
Lotte did not leave with them, but stayed in Lotte's room.
After Lan Yunxin and Fa Ming left, Bu Xiaocai looked at Letian and said somewhat reproachfully:
"Lotte, we are brothers. Even if this trip is dangerous, I will not abandon you. However, Senior Sister Lan and Senior Brother Faming have only known you for a month. Even if it is to increase the certainty of success, you should not let them Take such a big risk together!
This is really selfish! "
Although Bu Xiaotian's tone was not very good, Letian was not angry, but said with a smile:
"Xiaotian, I know you are a little angry because I brought your Senior Sister Lan into this, and you think I said those things for myself.
But have you ever thought about it, Senior Sister Lan looks gentle and indifferent, but she is actually soft on the outside and strong on the inside, and she is also a bit stubborn.
Even if I just spoke for you, could I really persuade her?
What if she only promised not to go to the South China Sea with us on the surface, but secretly followed us?
With us, at least everyone has someone to take care of her, but if she is alone, what if she really encounters a siren and something happens? "
Lotte's words were indeed reasonable, but Bu Xiaotian still didn't believe that Lan Yunxin would really do this, and asked:
"Senior Sister Lan and I are just ordinary classmates. Will she really insist on following us after we reject her?"
After listening to Bu Xiaotian's words, Letian said quietly:
"Are you sure you are just ordinary classmates? The way you look at her doesn't look like an ordinary classmate! And the look she occasionally shows when she looks at you..."
After his inner secret was exposed, Bu Xiaotian's face suddenly became a little uneasy. He hurriedly interrupted Letian's next words and explained bravely:
"I really didn't lie to you! I did that entirely because of Senior Sister Lan's sword!"
"sword?"
Letian looked curious.
