Chapter 370 Sea Jiao
"Are you sure you don't want me to go with you?" Zhao Yan looked at him and did not immediately pick up the talisman he handed over. "If you encounter danger in the sea, maybe I I can help.”
Being on the wanted list of the Da Qi court means that you are in danger all the time and your life is precarious.
But when Gu Xu personally said the words "die in the sea", Zhao Yan could not help but feel a chill in her heart.
Beside the North Ming Dynasty, the sky is dark and the ground is also dark.
Being here is like being locked in a dark cage, with no light visible, gloomy and depressing.
Perhaps it was because he had used the method of "Severing Seven Emotions" before, or perhaps because there was someone accompanying him. When he first came here, Zhao Yan had no fear in his heart.
Instead, he looked at the scenery around him curiously, as if he were on an ordinary outing.
However, when she imagined that Gu Xu jumped into the bottomless sea and never returned, leaving her alone waiting alone on the edge of the cliff, the dark sky suddenly It became heavy and suffocating, as if it could collapse at any time, crush her and shatter her into pieces.
Noticing the change in Zhao Yan's face, Gu Xu smiled: "Don't worry too much about me, Miss Zhao. Have you forgotten the previous divination results? As long as I am careful, I will definitely come back alive. Besides, , I still have a 'substitute bracelet' on me!"
Zhao Yan remained silent.
The "substitute bracelet" can withstand a fatal attack and can also remove all negative effects on a person, but it cannot quickly escape danger. If you encounter a strong enemy, using the "substitute bracelet" may lead to waiting for death.
Gu Xu paused for a moment and then said: "You should know that I am a person who is very afraid of death. I want you to stay on the coast, not because I don't need your help, but because I really want you to stay on the coast. The danger is not under the sea, but in the sky.
“Do you know what that is? ”
He pointed at the dark sky above his head.
"What?"
"Those are Kunpeng's wings."
"Kunpeng's wings..."
Zhao Yan looked up while murmuring and repeating what he said. Looking in the direction he pointed.
She has never felt her own insignificance as deeply as she did today.
If Kunpeng wanted to kill the two of them, it would be as easy as it would be for her to crush two ants on the road, right?
"Okay, I'll wait for you here."
She whispered, and at the same time took off an exquisite metal pendant from her neck - this is her father Zhao The amulet that Changying personally made for her.
She carried it with her every step of the way. Now that it was taken off, the warmth of her chest still remained on it.
Then she stood on tiptoe slightly and hung the amulet around Gu Xu's neck.
"It can bring you good luck."
…………
Gu Xu looked at the sea under the cliff, listened to the surging waves, and took a deep breath.
Then he jumped.
A strong feeling of weightlessness hit him instantly, and the air flow whizzed in his ears.
But soon, the "Wind Talisman" attached to his body came into play. As if a parachute suddenly deployed, the speed of his fall suddenly slowed down.
It’s more like gliding than falling.
The next moment, with splashes of water, he fell into the sea. Due to the spell being cast in advance, he could breathe normally in the sea, keep his clothes and hair dry, and be protected from the impact of huge pressure.
However, when he dived a few meters, all the sounds disappeared, the water was completely silent, and his vision was pitch black. He felt as if he had entered a strange world, and he was the only one in this world.
He held the "astrolabe" tightly in his hand and quietly felt the call in the deep sea.
The "Astrolabe" glows with silver light, like a lonely twinkling star in the night sky.
Gu Xu noticed that the seven light spots belonging to the Big Dipper on the "astral disk" were extremely bright at the moment. Its spoon handle turned around on the disk a few times, and then pointed deeper into the sea.
Gu Xu followed its guidance and continued to move forward.
After diving for more than a thousand meters, a wonderful "snow scene" suddenly appeared in front of his eyes - countless snowflakes were falling non-stop, and there were even clusters of snowflakes flying in the sea, matching the The snow on the ground is nearly identical.
Between the "snowflakes", fluorescent algae, jellyfish and strange-shaped jellyfish pass through from time to time, making the dark and lightless seabed colorful.
Based on the knowledge he learned in his previous life, Gu Xu knew that these "snowflakes" were called "sea snow", which was a kind of floc composed of plankton, also known as "plankton snow". At first glance, it looks like a dream, but it is actually a mass of mucus, with bacteria and viruses growing inside, posing a threat to ordinary people.
He also saw the legendary "lantern fish", whose scientific name is "deep sea angler", shaking the fishing rod above his head to lure passing prey.
After diving for nearly three thousand meters, Gu Xu felt that he was close to the bottom of the ocean.
Under the silver light of the "astrolabe", he saw undulating undersea hills, sunken depressions and deep trenches. The long and narrow fracture valley continuously spits out golden-red magma, which quickly solidifies into rock after encountering the cold sea water.
On the raised strange rocks, there are several huge creatures.
It looks like a snake, has a head like a tiger, is dozens of feet long, and sounds like a cow.
Whenever they wag their tails gently on the sea floor, they will set off huge waves on the sea surface.
Gu Xu learned from the book that this kind of monster is called "Jiao".
According to legend, dragons live in the deep sea. After they have practiced for thousands of years, they will create clouds and mist, soar through space, and transform into real dragons.
Gu Xu didn't know whether this rumor was true.
He only knew that these evil dragons were blocking his way.
In his perception, the fragments of the "astrolabe" were in the deep ravine beneath them.
Because being in the deep sea, fire attribute spells will be restricted to a certain extent, so Gu Xu pondered for a moment and decided to use "Qiankun" to respond to the enemy.
As his eyes turned deep indigo, black space cracks appeared in the ocean, like sharp blades, slashing in the direction of the sea dragon.
When these space cracks move in the sea, the sea water next to them suddenly forms a turbulent undercurrent, as if it wants to swallow everything around it into the whirlpool.
The sea dragons were also aware of the crisis at hand.
They twisted their huge bodies, opened their bloody mouths, and swooped towards Gu Xu.
In front of them, Gu Xu was as small as a bug, not even big enough to fill the gap between their teeth.
But it also means he is flexible.
With the help of the "Meteor Walking on the Moon" footwork, he shuttled back and forth between several sea dragons. The sea dragons didn't seem to have high IQs. They just chased him blindly. After a few seconds, their bodies were entangled in each other. Together, it was almost a dead knot.
