Under One: The Dragon's Wife

Chapter 339 Shenmu Island

There is a cliff on that mountain, and a huge waterfall pours down from the cliff. The water doesn't know where it comes from, and it doesn't look like sea water.A deep pit has been formed under the waterfall because the water has been washed for too long, and the water flow has formed a winding river, which is not particularly wide and crystal clear.

Both sides of the small river are full of red flowers, and a large area of ​​red is very spectacular when you look at it. If you look closely, it seems to be the legendary flower Manjusawa on the other side. Many people know the legend of this flower. It is said that it blooms at the junction of life and death. On the other side of the tree, only the dead can see it, but it is not the case. I have seen this kind of flower in my hometown when I was a child. The scientific name is 'lycoris', and it is distributed in the southwest region. Many people don't know this, so I found it after a search on the Internet.

This kind of flower is very fragile and generally does not grow in direct sunlight. The petals are easy to break after picking, and it will not be stored for a long time.

There is no sunrise on this island either. Apart from the absence of the sun, the weather is still good, neither hot nor cold, as if staying in the daytime forever.

I was deeply shocked by everything in front of me. This island is not so big, but it is still so wide. It is not easy to find a person, but it is much easier to find someone here than in the vast world outside.

There is only such a small place, we can't let Jiu'er spend her energy to use the dragon-seeking formula again, too many times she can't bear it, so she can only spread out to find it.

In order to ensure our own safety, we divided into three groups, with Chang Chong, Jiu Er and me, and the others making their own arrangements.

The tree in the center of the island is really too big. There are many creatures living in that tree, birds are the majority, and there are other small animals. It is simply a small kingdom.The tree can also hide, Chang Chong decided to look for it from the tree first, at this time Nalan Chun and the others were no longer visible.

When we got under the tree, we found a big gap in the root of the tree and a wooden door. It seems that there are people living here, and there must be a cave under the huge tree root.

I was afraid that the long worm would offend the people inside, so I went up and knocked on the door first, and waited for at least two minutes before the door opened, and an 'old man' wearing coarse linen came out from the inside, with gray hair somewhat disheveled , with a rough black mask on his face, a moderate figure, and looks quite energetic, at least there is no hunchback or anything.

"Who are you looking for?"

As soon as this man spoke, I was stunned. His voice was not old at all. I don't know why he made himself look like this.

Jiu'er realized it before me: "We're here to find...a grass, a grass that can transform into a human form and harm people. I know, she's here, not yours, but this island. You should have lived here for a long time, right? Do you know if a stranger has been here recently?"

I don't know the identity of the person in front of me, I can't feel the aura emanating from him, and I can't even tell whether he is a human or not.

The masked weirdo glanced at us and said: "I won't ask the identity of all the people who come here, because most of the people who will come here are desperadoes, and the Three Realms don't allow it. Don't think this place is not big enough, there are still people here. Quite a few, you have to be careful, don't cause trouble, no one will control who dies and lives here, here, it is not governed by the regulations of the Three Realms."

I asked, "So, you don't know?"

The weird man in the mask lowered his head and coughed a few times: "Here, no one will meddle in other people's business, because it will cause trouble for the upper body. If you are here to find someone, you are welcome. If you are here to make Shenmu's idea, then I will not let you Get out of here alive!"

Shenmue?Is this tree a sacred tree?The origin of Shenmu girl? !
Chang Chong and I looked at each other, and Chang Chong looked at the weird man in the mask: "So this is where the Shenmu is. Then look at this woman, does it look like it was made by you?"

The strange man in the mask glanced at me: "Like, but she is not, she is a real person. There are many things from my own hands, and they flow to all parts of the world. Xingshi asked criminals to find me. I once carved out a picture based on a portrait. I bought an object, similar to this girl, but it ran away, Shenmu can't leave here, even if it's just a little branch, she broke my rules, but I can't leave here to get her back, if she is already in your I have tasted bitterness in my hands, so I have to thank you."

Unexpectedly, the Shenmu girl is just an object in the eyes of the person who created her, which is ironic enough.

Chang Chong said: "She is dead, but I'm curious, who gave you that portrait?"

The masked weirdo didn't mean to hide at all: "Yunli, we are old friends. Judging by the hostility in your eyes, I'm afraid we won't deal with him. I'm not afraid to tell you, anyway, you have nothing to do with him."

It really has something to do with Yunli, I said, "Hehe... old friend, if he didn't tell you everything, then you are still being used by your old friend. We really have a problem with Yunli, he doesn't Kill us to see that we are struggling, and we don't kill him because we can't beat him now. Since you don't know who we are looking for, don't bother, and thank you for your careful reminder, we will be careful here."

My words are not too clear, let this person think for himself, if I talk too much, it seems that I am sowing discord.

This guy regards Yunli as a friend, but Yunli doesn't treat him as a friend, otherwise he wouldn't have asked him to sculpt Nie Xiangling's portrait, maybe it was Yunli who arranged for the Shenmu girl to escape from here, just to disgust us.If this guy knows about it, then I admit they are 'good friends', gangster thing.

After I finished talking about the weird man in the mask, he went back to that door. If you can’t find out from here, then ask someone else. Anyway, he’s not the only one living here.

I also noticed that he said that there are many people living here, but he is the only one around Shenmu, and there is no one in the surrounding plains, so most of the others are in the mountains.

Although I don't know why it is in such a state, this guy wearing a mask must not be simple.

After we left Shenmu, we headed towards the mountain. There is really a mixed bag of fish and dragons here. As soon as we get close to the mountain, we will feel a lot of aura. Except for me, there is no human aura, it is all Yin and evil.

Chang Chong's nerves tensed up, holding me with one hand and Jiu'er with the other.

On weekdays, he is not used to people getting too close to him except me, he even has a problem with Jiu'er riding with me on his back when he comes, his behavior now is enough to show how dangerous this place is.

Judging from Jiu'er's reaction, she also sensed the danger here. She was as vigilant as Chang Chong, but Chang Chong was calmer, while Jiu'er was too nervous, looking around from time to time, as if something would pop out at any time of.
