Chapter 2109 Ghost Ship
"Do you want to go up and have a look?" Bing Zhixie looked at the crescent moon that had risen directly above the mast, and the cold light reflected the sand into patches of blue.
Shakhan said: "You are so brave. A ship with such a weird atmosphere is not a place to enter casually."
"You'd better not get on casually. . ”
A melodious male voice sounded outside the Sensen Ghost Ship, and the Moonlight Dragon let out a warning roar, and then fell to the ground.
Shakhan and Bing Zhixie saw a man wearing a black leather coat and black leather gloves walking towards them in the wind. He was wearing a feathered hat, holding down his silver curly hair, and his waist was slanted. Carrying a slender sword, his long boots stepped on the sand, making a gentle grinding sound.
"Who?"
The man said leisurely: "I have no malice, don't be nervous."
Bing Zhixie looked at this person, and this person also looked at Bingzhi An evil look.
"Who are you?" Shakhan asked, the purple dragon sword on his back was inserted into the ground.
"Winedin." The man said three words briefly and stopped ten meters away from them.
“You told us not to go up?”
Weinedin said: “If we go up, we might not be able to come back.”
“Oh, why? It has What’s special?”
Weinedin looked up at the ship, the old mast creaked, and he said: “This is probably a It is an ancient ship that has been exiled. It has been wandering in the turbulent flow of time and space, and has been trapped in it for who knows how many years. It is a ghost ship that comes and goes without a trace. No matter who gets on this ship, They will all be taken to another world, a world that does not belong to us, it may be the underworld, it may be the underworld.”
"Is there really such a thing in the world?" Shakhan was curious and suspicious. He asked: "You seem to know a lot about this ship?"
"I don't know." Winnie Ding said: "That's all I know."
Shakhan looked at the boat and pondered to himself.
Bing Zhixie still had doubts about this and asked: "Why does it appear here? Its appearance is not a coincidence."
Weinedin pointed to the moon with his left hand and said: "Please look there."
"Huh?" Bing Zhixie looked up at the moon, and saw that the crescent moon was missing a piece, as if it had been bitten by something. He was a little surprised: "Lunar eclipse?" The missing corner behind the crescent moon was only a very small part. If you didn't look carefully, you would have thought it was obscured by clouds: "What does this have to do with the ghost ship?"
Venedin said: "Probably the ghost ship was affected by both the lunar eclipse and the Sand Temple."
Bing Zhixie had some realization: "So the appearance and disappearance of the Sand Temple are also related to this? ”
Weinedin smiled and said nothing.
Shakhan asked again: "Who are you?"
"A person who shouldn't be alive."
Bing Zhixie said unhappily: "Don't play tricks on me. Aren't you a wandering musician? How did you end up wandering here? During the day, the remains of the troll at Huanyan Rock Are you the one who left the footprints?" "Yes, it's me," said Venedin. "Musicians need to look for inspiration everywhere. Ah, just like a poet."
Bing Zhixie saw the sword beside him: "Did you kill the Huanyan Troll?"
" No." Venedin said: "It was already dead when I came. I was only here one night before you."
"Are you also here for the Sand Temple?" Shakhan asked.
At this time, a strong wind suddenly hit, and the wind fell to the ground. When he saw Venedin, he was unexpectedly startled.
Bing Zhixie looked at Gale.
Haifeng said: "I see you haven't gone back, so I thought something happened. Hey!" He blinked and looked in the direction of the giant ship.
Bing Zhixie saw that the shadow of the sail on the sand was disappearing. She turned around suddenly and saw that the huge ship with a height of more than ten stories suddenly disappeared. She only saw an afterimage of the hull before it finally disappeared.
The ship disappeared as silently as it had come. Venedin sighed quietly: "It is like a scheduled ferry. It will leave without waiting for new passengers and return to the netherworld." After saying this, his body suddenly floated backwards, not to mention floating behind his shoulders. He took out his broad cloak and said, "You shouldn't come to the Sand Temple. You can't enter that place." After saying that, the cloak completely wrapped his body and disappeared faintly into the night sky, just like the ghost ship.
Looking at the moon in the sky at this time, the little bit of partial lunar eclipse has disappeared, and the crescent moon has returned to its complete shape.
Haifeng wanted to ask something, but was interrupted by Bing Zhixie: "This place is too mysterious. Let's go back to the airship first."
The three returned to the Fuxing and flew After getting off the empty boat, after confirming with Lace on the boat that nothing happened, he did not get on the boat and chatted about what had just happened in the shelter outside the boat.
After learning about their situation, Hayate said, "I know that person just now." He told Bing the shameful fact that he was blackmailed by that person into taking away the 'Weeping Blood Lotus'. He thought he would be laughed at by Ying Bing, but he was disappointed.
The three of them sat quietly on the sand, recalling what the man said just now. This Venedin seemed to know a lot, but he kept half of what he said, making it impossible to guess his true identity.
After one night, at dawn the next day, Shakhan collected Ayub's bones, found a place to bury them, and carved a stone tablet. Alice and the others still didn't know what happened last night and were waiting for Tyson's airship to arrive. Calculating the time and distance, we can probably get here this morning.
Bing Zhixie and Gale Feng prepared the items needed to enter the Sand Temple. Both of them have a basic introduction to space magic, so they can still do it by simply storing some things. However, Bing Zhixie still felt resentful about Weinedin's words, especially the words 'You can't enter that place'. After experiencing the ghost ship incident last night, he felt that the Sand Temple was probably not a place that anyone could enter casually. It might be completely different from all the previous tombs of Princess Glonus. If it was true, as Venedin said, that he could not enter the Sand Temple, then his trip to find the temple would have been in vain, and he would have to wait forty-four years for the next opportunity.
During breakfast, Bing Zhixie and Ruola talked about the ghost ship. Alice was very surprised when she heard it. Ruola was more concerned about the statues of angels and devils. She asked, "Can you guys Describe to me the style and appearance of that huge ship. Is there anything special about it? Anything else?"
Bing Zhixie said: "The appearance of the ship is indeed a bit special. I can't tell you many details because it was night and Shakhan and I didn't have time to observe the hull carefully. When the partial lunar eclipse disappeared, the ship It also disappeared.”
Ruola said: "The characteristics of ships are also an important entry point for studying ancient civilizations. Knowing the characteristics of a ship, you can judge the era it came from. Although the current historical understanding of various ancient civilizations is very thin and incomplete, even existence may never have The discovered ancient civilization and the disappeared ancient country. But if you study carefully, it is possible to find its origin from the broken information."
Shakhan suddenly asked: "By the way, Miss Ruola, Do you know the name Jahhe's Devil's Nest? I feel it’s very familiar, but I can’t remember where I’ve heard or seen this word.”
“Jah’s Demon’s Nest…Jah’s Demon’s Nest…Jah’s…” Ruola repeated it several times. He shook his head at this word: "I have an impression of the name Jiahe. This The impression should come from the Bemut culture related to angels and devils. Unfortunately, there are very few book records related to Bemut in historical archaeology. Most of what I know comes from my teacher's handwriting."
" ?..." Shakhan thought.
