Chapter 49 Chapter 104 High Priest

The following days were uneventful. I knew that I was getting closer and closer to the coffin temple. There was indeed a problem in that sea area. I had seen a large number of bone fish appear there, so I couldn’t say I felt a little nervous. I am also a little worried, of course I am worried about the safety of Jasmine. Jasmine didn't know what was going on in my heart, she thought I was just afraid, so she kept comforting me along the way, and I didn't say anything, I just listened to her silently, at this moment, a melodious flute wafted inexplicably We looked for the sound, and saw an ordinary wooden boat floating on the sea not far away. An old man wearing a bamboo hat sat at the helm at the stern, and a little girl with two braids stood on the bow. The sound is exactly what she blows. I don't know what it is, but it sounds very cheerful and lively. The little girl's skills are also good, and the tone is smooth and natural without any stagnation.

I was fascinated by what I heard, and Lao Ge suddenly said in my ear: "These two people are weird. This sea area can be regarded as a deep sea area. Small passenger ships dare not enter it, but they are rowing small boats. I think they must be Whale driver." I said, "It's not surprising at all. Whale pilots were originally born at sea, and people like us are no longer true whale pilots." Lao Ge sneered twice and said: "You have lived carefree all these years, do you know how we got here?" I said: "To be honest, from myself, it's hard to imagine how a whale driver lives."

Lao Ge said: "Of course you wouldn't expect it. Whale drivers, especially the fighters of the whale clan, have to undergo strict selection every year. The winner will represent the entire race to participate in the sacrificial activities of the deep sea overlord. This is actually an extremely dangerous event. The thing is, once the deep-sea overlord enters the sacrificial area, it is basically impossible for the whale pilots to survive, and even those whale pilots who do not have the opportunity to participate in the sacrifice will undergo rigorous training and make choices for the next year. Get ready, we've all gone to bootcamp as fighters, before the split, of course."

I said: "Since sacrifice is such a huge risk, why do you bother to do it?" Lao Ge said: "This is faith. I can't explain things clearly. Facing the overlord of the deep sea, the only surviving whale driver has only been Gou Changkong in the past few decades. Unfortunately, he still fell into the hands of the two-headed evil spirit in the end." hands." I said: "Then can I think that the two-headed evil is more terrifying than the deep-sea overlord?" Lao Ge said: "That's not necessarily the case. The two-headed evil may pose a greater threat to human beings, but the overlord in the ocean is the overlord of the deep sea. No marine life can compete with it. If it goes on land, the consequences will be even greater. Unthinkable."

While speaking, the small boat was gradually approaching. I was staring at the small wooden boat. Suddenly, Lao Ge jumped into the sea. Before I could figure out what he was going to do, suddenly a huge shadow in the sea came out across the water, and Lao Ge was covered in water. Clinging wet to the back of a blue shark, it rushed towards the wooden boat. I have always heard that whale drivers can control the creatures in the sea, but I have never seen it before. Today is the first time I have seen it with my own eyes. I saw that blue shark is more obedient than a puppy, and Lao Ge is as stable as Mount Tai on its dorsal fin. , the little girl had stopped playing the flute at this time, she seemed to be stunned by everything in front of her, but just when the two were about to touch, the blue shark suddenly stopped swimming.

Sharks are in motion all their lives, and they will never stop at any time, otherwise they will be drowned. The sudden stop of this shark must be due to some kind of invisible restraint. I turned my eyes to the old man, only Seeing him sitting firmly on the bow of the boat, he didn't seem to notice everything in front of him. After a stalemate for a while, Lao Ge suddenly stretched out his left hand and said, "Forget you, I admit defeat." After saying this, the old man handed an oar in front of him. Lao Ge touched the oar and stretched out his hand to press the shark's back and jumped onto the wooden boat. Afterwards, Lao Ge and the old man talked for a long time, and our The boat also stopped sailing and anchored at this time, but because their voices were not loud, no one knew what they were going to say. When Lao Ge returned to the boat again, the old man drove away in his wooden boat.

When his subordinates asked what happened, Lao Ge said with an uneasy face: "At least seven ancient great heavenly warriors have come here, and we are in trouble this time." I said: "The ancient Tianshi came here? Does it have something to do with us?" After a while, Lao Ge said: "It has nothing to do with us, but it's not good news. They came here because the high priest came here." I was puzzled and said: "Can you tell me exactly what happened? Is it a bit too confusing for a while for a big Tianshi and a while for a high priest?" Lao Ge said: "The high priests are a group of people with a very respected status in the whale control clan. It can be said that their status is still higher than that of the leaders, because their function is to sacrifice to the unconquerable creatures in the ocean, such as the deep sea overlord."

I said, "But there shouldn't be that kind of huge marine life in this sea area, right?" Lao Ge said: "In short, their arrival must be because of similar incidents, so we must be careful, not only because of the sensitive relationship between the two parties, but also because of that potential opponent." As soon as he finished speaking, he only heard the faint sound of musical instruments beating, and Lao Ge's face changed: "They are here, the old man just now is just like a pioneer, even if he is a whale driver of his level, I can't deal with it anymore, if it's really the ancient Tianshi who came, we'd better take a detour."

As soon as the words fell, an old voice said slowly: "Why do you have to make a detour, they are not worthy at all." Lao Ge turned around and said respectfully, "Uncle Gui." I turned around and saw the fat old man I saw at the entrance of Chenjiacun. This ship has three floors in total. It is considered a very luxurious cruise ship. The old man has not shown up these days. I thought he didn’t come, but I didn’t expect him to be on the ship. . Although the old man was dressed luxuriously, there was a natural majesty in his expression, which made people dare not underestimate him. He didn't speak to me, but just nodded, walked to the left side of the hull, and said: "Everyone does not violate the water of the river. This is a rule set many years ago, so don't be polite to them, no matter what the identity of the person you meet."

Lao Ge said: "I know, but these people are great ancient warriors, I think one thing more is worse than one thing less..." The old man waved his hand to interrupt him and said: "If it's all your thinking, then who will be afraid of mad sharks in the future? You are tearing down your own signboard. Even if everyone is killed here today, we will not detour." Lao Ge said, "Don't tell me you really want to turn against them completely?" The old man thought for a while and said: "I have never been afraid of anyone in my life. Of course, I will not be a turtle when I am old. If you really want to help me, drive straight ahead for me today. If he dares not give way, Just hit them for me."

Having said that, you can already vaguely see the sea ship appearing in front of you. This ship is not too small. It is considered to be a medium-sized or above freighter, but there are some weird flags on it. Some people hold various musical instruments and stand It is tinkling and playing on the deck, and I don't know what it means. If someone who doesn't know the inside story sees it, it will even feel a little weird. The old man stared at them, and suddenly he sneered twice and said: "Thirty years, you have not died yet, God is short-sighted." After finishing speaking, he turned to me and said, "How are you doing these days?" I said: "It's nothing bad, although there are always people trying to plot against me, I still have some breath." The old man nodded and said: "This sentence is the essence of being a human being. As long as you have a breath, no matter how much you suffered in the past, you will be able to get back with profit one day." I said, "Does the old man know me? Why waste your energy protecting someone you don't even know? I don't even know what the roster is. Your information must be wrong." The old man smiled slightly, and instead of answering me, he said, "Do you know about Gouchangkong?" I said: "Of course I know, is there anyone in the Whale Driving Clan who doesn't know about him?" The old man grunted, thought for a long time and said, "I always feel that you have an absolute relationship with him, and only you can find Gou Zhangkong." I said, "Don't you think I'm left-handed too?" The old man said: "You must not be left-handed, because I have heard the voice of the left hand, but I can be sure that the person Cao Changfeng is willing to invest in must be very valuable, otherwise he will not even look at you if you kill him, I value it." What matters is your future value, although from the current point of view, it is not certain which aspect it is.” Only then did I understand that the mad shark's true intention to contact me was related to the fat old man's purpose, and then I heard him continue: "Don't think that I am using you, the essence of human beings is mutual Take advantage of it, but I’m a person who never does secret things, compared to those sneaky people, I should be much better off.” Lao Ge said: "Mr. Chang is telling the truth. Thinking about Cao Changfeng, it should be a pleasure to cooperate with us." Jasmine and I looked at each other without saying a word, the fat old man said: "You don't need to answer me in a hurry, we will have a long time to come." During the conversation, the sound of the music became louder and louder. The strange ship was very close to us. I could clearly see the strangely dressed people on the ship. gone." The fat old man frowned slightly and said, "It doesn't make sense, can there really be giant aquatic creatures in this sea area?" Before he had time to speak, he heard a man in his thirties on the opposite boat shout loudly: "Who are you, this sea area is forbidden to pass through, don't you know?" The fat old man said: "Since you can leave, of course I can too." His voice was unexpectedly loud. When talking to us, his voice was very low. It was impossible to believe that it was the voice of an old man. The other party obviously didn't expect that someone would dare to talk to him like this. He stared at us carefully for a while , said: "Who are you?" Lao Ge said in a low voice: "Mr. Chang, let's keep a low profile. We can't afford to mess with these people." The fat old man looked at Lao Ge with a strange expression and said, "Since you understand this, why did you come with me?" Lao Ge blushed and said nothing. The fat old man said loudly to the other boat: "Let's go our separate ways. It's best to live in peace, otherwise it will be of no benefit." I saw a man with huge eyes on the ship came to the side of the ship and said: "My friend, if you are just a passer-by, I advise you to turn around and go back. If you are a whale driver, you should go back even more." , or you will regret it." The fat old man said: "I'm sure I won't turn around. If you have the guts, you'll crash the boat." The big eyes and two eyes obviously turned around and said nothing, but he didn't intend to crash into the ship, but he was driving steadily according to the established channel. I watched their every move nervously, but They didn't take the next step, and the two ships passed by. At this moment, I suddenly saw an unbelievable scene. The shape is strange, but it looks extremely luxurious, and this woman is actually Jasmine, or a woman who is exactly the same as Jasmine. But her expression was dull, as if she couldn't see everything around her. I looked at "Jasmine" next to me suspiciously. Although I wanted to ask this question clearly, I didn't know how to ask it. But "Jasmine" smiled and said: "Why, you find it incredible?" I pointed to Jasmine on the opposite boat, and then pointed to "Jasmine" next to me, but she still didn't say a word. She sighed slightly and said, "Brother Zou, it's not that I want to lie to you, but since I want to save you, I must To use some extraordinary means, of course it is impossible for me to know the inside story about you, so I hope you will not be offended." I tried my best to calm down and asked, "Then who are you?" "Jasmine" said: "I am her younger sister." My heart dropped to freezing point in an instant, and the indescribable disappointment mixed with anger gushed out, but I didn't have an attack because this girl was Jasmine's younger sister. It could be seen that the fat old man was also baffled by this matter, he said: "Little girl, what is going on? Could it be that you can have two bodies? The high priest is actually going to die, don't you know?" Hearing this, my heart was shocked, I didn't care to understand those outlandish things, and said: "What, the high priest was sent to die, what do you mean?" Lao Ge said: "You don't even know this rule. The high priest is just a tribute, similar to the virgin boys and girls who were sacrificed in the feudal superstition. The reason why the ancient great heavenly warriors wanted to protect her was not because they were worried about her personal safety. , but to ensure that she cannot be harmed before the sacrifice, and she must dedicate her complete body to the super sea monster." This sentence was like thunder to me, and I immediately said to the fat old man, "I'm going to save people." The fat old man sneered, "Are you crazy, do you think I'm a philanthropist?" After that, everyone around him pulled out their pistols and pointed at me. I suddenly realized: "You are not mad sharks at all, you are just a bunch of ordinary people."
