Paintings of Terror - Chapter 331

When the two of them came out of the sea, they found that the water area had narrowed a lot, and the luster of the burning clouds reflected on the water was particularly brilliant.

Qin Ci raised his head and looked at the sky: “Why do I feel that the sky has become lower?”

Zhu Haowen: It’s not easy to be able to have instant face-to-face conversations. Finally, there is no need to blisters.

Qin Ci: “Is it my illusion? It feels like the sea of ​​fire above is getting closer to us, and even the water temperature on the surface of the sea has become higher.”

Zhu Haowen floated on the water almost completely on his back, looking at the top like this to make it clearer: “Yes, the sea of ​​fire is indeed near. Moreover, it seems that something is traveling through the sea of ​​fire.”

As they were talking, suddenly a hot wind blew their faces, and the two of them only felt that a fire was burning on the sea, and they hurriedly dived into the water to escape.

Through the water layer, the two saw a group of flames burning on the sea, which soon extinguished slowly.

A huge fire dragon whizzed past the sky of the sea of ​​fire. Under the instigation of its big wings, many flames descended one after another, floating on the surface of the sea waiting to extinguish itself.

Qin Ci spouted a small blister: “This is not a Chinese dragon, right? Why does it still have wings?”

Zhu Haowen blisters: “China also has dragons with wings, and Yinglong has wings.”

Qin Ci Bubble: “What kind of dragon is Yinglong?”

Zhu Haowen’s speech bubble: “I used to read “Shu Yi Ji” and it said that the dragon has turned into a dragon for 500 years, a dragon for a thousand years, a horned dragon for 500 years, and a Yinglong for a thousand years.”

Qin Ci Bubble: “So it seems that Yinglong is a very high-level dragon?”

Zhu Haowen bubble: “Yes, there is a saying: What should Yinglong draw? What is the history of rivers and seas? It seems that Yinglong once helped Dayu to control the water by drawing the ground into a river with the tail, thus channeling the flow of the flood.”

Qin Ci didn’t understand: “This Ying Long is full of fire, just like the dragon in Harry Potter.”

Zhu Haowen didn’t have time to understand that Qin Ci was still watching Harry Potter. At this moment, he said with a bubble: “Have you noticed that the fire on this dragon is intermittent, in some places, and not in some places; moreover, Although the dragon’s wings stirred up some flames, the large clusters of flames on the water were actually taken away by it.”

The water was calmer at this time, and the two men floated to the surface again.

The dragon has long since disappeared. Perhaps it was just a weird cloud that caused some illusions.

All the fire on the water disappeared, not even a cluster of small flames could be seen, but the fire cloud in the sky was still low down, as if it might gather into a cluster at any time, and the next fire rain.

The two have long been unable to distinguish the direction, and they can’t find the way to come.

Because of the narrowing of the water, the two could even see the shore scene.

“Let’s go ashore, or continue swimming?” Qin Ci found that he was still swimming as fast as a fish.

“We are swimming faster than walking now.” Zhu Haowen thinks swimming is a good way, besides being fast, it can also cool down.

The water channel is getting narrower and narrower, and there is no more sea.

Qin Ci observed the trees on both sides: “The waterway here is as narrow as Yangzhou Slender West Lake.”

But there is no beauty of Slender West Lake here. Both banks are pine forests, and there are waves of pine waves in the wind, which sounds like in the sea.

There is an extraordinarily tall pine tree in front of it, which was born near the shore, and there was a man sitting under the tree.

Qin Ci and Zhu Haowen swam past quietly, only to see an elderly woman under the tree, holding an old clothes to mending there.

“Could it be that this is the Dragon Girl that Monk Hai said?” Zhu Haowen couldn’t believe it.

“The woman who is mending clothes is in full compliance with Monk Hai’s description of the dragon girl.” Qin Ci has already swam to the shore.

The two went ashore one after another, drenching themselves under the big pine tree.

The elderly woman was completely unaware of the approach of the two people, she was still attentively mending the clothes in her hands, as if Tarzan would not disturb her a bit.

If you look closely, you will find that she is not using ordinary silver needles, but black pine needles. The thread she uses is a big red thread with extremely strong toughness. The stitches are not ordinary clothes, but large pieces. Large pieces of damaged dragon scales.

“Old man,” Qin Ci stepped forward and greeted softly, “I’m sorry to disturb you.”

The old woman looked up at Qin Ci hesitantly, and then at Zhu Haowen. Her eyes were almost gray and white: “My eyes are not good. I didn’t notice them just now. Nothing to bother, this one. The pine trees have the greatest shade, and anyone can come here to enjoy the cool.”

Qin Ci continued: “I take the liberty to ask, are you a dragon girl?”

The old woman smiled and said, “Dragon Girl, that’s how she was called when she was young. Now she is an old woman and can only sit here and make up for her son every day.”

Zhu Haowen also asked: “Old man, we jumped from the sea of ​​fire. Monk Hai took us for a ride, but we temporarily separated when we encountered danger on the road. It asked us to come to you.”

The old woman’s gray eyes looked at Zhu Haowen: “Those who dare to jump into the sea of ​​fire are really brave and courageous, rare.”

Zhu Haowen thought for a while, and took out the box: “Our box has conquered a 猊 in the sea. I want to ask, where can I find the second 猊?”

After hearing Zhu Haowen’s words, the old woman suddenly laughed, and after a long laugh, she stopped: “Submit? It’s obviously your wish. How can you subdue it?”

Qin Ci hurriedly said: “We don’t understand what’s going on here, and I hope the elderly can give pointers.”

The old woman sews up and said: “There is only one swarf in the sea in this world. Where can I find the second one for you? Instead, there is an idol, hidden on the seabed under the temple, where there is an Indian shipwreck. There were several boxes of treasures in the sunken ship, among them was a golden vase with the idol hidden inside.”

The two took down the words of the old woman very seriously, and Zhu Haowen asked again: “According to your opinion, not all the patterns on this box are all 狻猊? Do you need idols?”

The old woman’s silence seems to be a tacit consent.

“Old man, we thought it was enough to find a few 猊猊. Now that we have joined the idols, do we need anything else? How many kinds of them are needed?” Qin Ci couldn’t help asking.

The old woman rubbed her eyes, seeming to have some energy loss: “Look over there, do you see that small mountain bag?”

The two people looked over there, and indeed there was a lonely mountain with pearls all over the mountain, as if the mountain was not stone trees, but sprinkled with pearls.

The old woman said slowly: “You go to the foot of the mountain, hit the root of the mountain with this red thread, and loudly accuse: If the sea is not protected, the Shui Clan is there?”

Zhu Haowen took the red thread handed over by the old woman with both hands, and only felt that the red thread was very thick and extremely resilient.

The old woman stood up and patted the dirt on her body: “Well, my old lady can only help you get here. Any more words will reveal the secret.”

Seeing that the old woman was about to leave, Qin Ci asked hurriedly: “You are showing compassion, can you tell us how many things we are looking for? What are the names of these things?”

The old woman didn’t even look at Qin Ci, cleaned up those large dragon scales, shook her head and said, “These children now don’t even know the sea monsters…what kind of world is this.”

The old woman stopped responding to the two and limped away on crutches. The two wanted to come and help, but she refused.

The old woman went to the depths of the pine forest and disappeared.

The two of them were still standing under the big pine tree. After carefully reviewing what the old woman said just now, Qin Ci said: “I seemed to have heard of the term’Eight Monsters of the Sea’ when I read the introduction materials of the’Sea Beast Grape Mirror’, but I haven’t studied it carefully. I remember that there is a similar bronze mirror called the “Hippocampus Grape Mirror”. It is said that the carved on it is a “Pegasus”, and it is also said that it is a horse from overseas. This statement is somewhat similar to the 狻猊 from overseas… I am a little confused. But that’s all the information I learned.”

Zhu Haowen seemed to be lost in thought. After listening to Qin Ci’s words, he said for a long time: “I always think I have heard of the’Eight Monsters of the Sea’ somewhere, and if I remember correctly, it seems to be some fish, shrimp, crab and mussel. Something like this… I can’t remember where I saw it. I don’t have the habit of visiting museums. I went to a museum once in my life to return it…

Qin Ci: “…”

Zhu Haowen seems to have really thought of something: “It seems like a hot pot!”

“…”

“It’s hot pot, that kind of copper hot pot!” Zhu Haowen completely opened his memory. “When I was a kid, there was an old lamb-boiled restaurant near our house. They used the traditional charcoal-burning copper hot pot at home. There are some fish, mussels and other things carved outside, and some monster-like things. I felt strange at the time and asked. I remember my grandfather told me that the bronze pot was carved with sea monsters. The town is on fire.”

“Suppress the fire? Don’t you have to use fire for hot pot? Why do you want to suppress the fire?” Qin Ci puzzled.

“It seems to use these aquariums to calm down, so that you can avoid running water.” Zhu Haowen used an old saying.

Qin Ci understood that walking the water meant fire.

Qin Ci asked: “Do you still remember what’s on it? Is there a 狻猊? Is there an idol?”

Zhu Haowen: “I really don’t remember, I remember there are fish, turtles, mussel shells, and some ferocious beasts.”

At this time, the two people felt that “the book is only used to hate less.” Mu Yiran and Shao Ling used to be able to solve the traditional knowledge, but now they are struggling with two big men with low education.

“What we can be sure of now is that this box is for the Sea Eight Monsters, and Suan is one of the Sea Eight Monsters.” Qin Ci could only try to analyze and summarize first. “According to the old man, there are also idols, and There are three kinds of that strange mountain, plus the fish, turtles, and mussels you have seen on the copper pot. There are six kinds in total. Let’s look in this direction first.”

Zhu Haowen nodded, and now it can only be like this: “The hill is not far away, and it is not near. Let’s swim faster.”

The two of them were still drenched just now, and the clothes were mostly dry in a while, and the fire clouds in the sky seemed to be getting lower and lower.

Zhu Haowen handed the red thread to Qin Ci’s collection and asked: “Did you see where she got this red thread from?”

Qin Ci also saw it, but couldn’t see clearly: “It seems to be from the position of the leg. Is there any sewing pocket there?”

“No, it’s from her body, from her legs.” Zhu Haowen said, “including the red thread that she used to repair the clothes, they were all drawn from the body. If you guessed it correctly, it should belong to her. Part of the tendons.”

Qin Ci was taken aback, thinking of the old woman who was limping on foot: “If she is really a dragon girl, then this is a dragon tendon.”

“Well, that’s why there is so much power to shake a mountain.”

At this time, the two of them had jumped into the water and swam in the direction of the hill, and when they got closer, they found out what kind of hill this is, obviously a giant clam the size of a hill! The whole body emits jewels, beautiful and magnificent!
