Wu Liang was not sure what Miko Hu was planning.

Even the witch Hu didn't know what Wu Liang was thinking.

The two of them continued to explore the rest of the cave with their own agendas.

As for the seven volumes of slips and the clothes in the box left by Xu Fu, Wu Liang had no intention of taking them away. After all, it was difficult for the clothes to be left to future generations, and once the seven volumes of slips were soaked in sea water when they returned,

The ink marks on it will probably be severely damaged. The best way is to keep the content in mind and then record it when you get out.

After some exploration like this.

The two people and the monkey made no other important discoveries, but this was what Wu Liang expected. Because of the existence of "Yang Shen Zhi", everything here has formed a cycle that can "destroy corpses and eliminate traces":

People who have eaten black soil will turn into rocks after death, and will soon break into gravel, making it difficult to see the original appearance;

People who have never eaten black soil will definitely be resurrected by some animals on the island using "Yangshenzhi", and eventually turn into the black soil that they flock to, without even a bit of dregs left.

As for Xu Fu’s body.

Of course, there is no need to look any further. Maybe some of the gravel that he just stepped on is part of his body, and it is impossible to tell them apart.

"Now we are going to the reefs in the north of the island to confirm some of the things recorded in the slips, and we will relay some of the important contents to you on the way."

Wu Liang didn't show any nostalgia, he nodded to the witch and walked ahead.

"good."

The witch Huya did not express any opinion and followed Wu Liang step by step.

In this way, the two of them soon arrived at the place where the witch called "Keng" before. Because Wu Liang had called her during this period, and later saw her emerging from behind the rock, it was not difficult to determine the exact location.

As a result, I just walked nearby.

"Wu Taishi..."

The witch called out to him, with a blush on her face, looking extremely embarrassed but she hesitated to speak.

"What's the matter, Hu girl?"

Wu Liang asked deliberately.

"No, it's nothing."

The witch Hu didn't even dare to look into Wu Liang's eyes. She lowered her head and rubbed the corners of her clothes and said coquettishly, "I just asked Wu Taishi to bypass this place. I just left some filthy things here for convenience.

I'm afraid that Wu Taishi's eyes will be dirty..."

"I see."

Wu Liang laughed and thought to himself, "Isn't the witch called a deserter?" He waved his hands indifferently and said seriously, "The reincarnation of grains is the way of heaven. How can the things that are reincarnated in the way of heaven be filthy? Girl, call me.

Don’t take it to heart, I won’t care about these details, it’ll be fine.”

"Wu Taishi doesn't care, but I can't control myself. Please Wu Taishi understands."

The witch Hu insisted, and raised her hand to make a sign of invitation, pointing out another way for Wu Liang.

"Hey girl, we are pressed for time, how can we take a long detour if there is a shortcut?"

The harder Wu Hu tried to stop her, the more suspicious Wu became in his conscience. After saying this, he ignored the Wu Hu and stepped forward quickly.

Then a foul smell wafted into the nose.

Wu Liang frowned slightly and looked sideways behind the rock. He actually saw a small pile of extremely fresh excrement. Moreover, the excrement looked very little watery. It was dry and seemed to be the product of constipation.

this……

Wu Liangzhong Yibing, am I too worried?

Is it true that Miko Hu is just here for convenience, just because she stayed there for a long time due to constipation?

But this still cannot explain Miko Hu's attitude towards "Yang Shen Zhi Tong Yao". No matter what the reason is, she has no reason not to regard the autographed slips left by Xu Fu as a treasure, or even not take it to heart?

at the same time.

The witch Hu had already rushed up, standing between Wu Liang and the daddy. She blushed and urged Wu Liang: "Wu Taishi, it's not advisable to stay here for a long time. Let's leave quickly."

"Exactly, let's go."

This time, Wu Liang was a little embarrassed. He laughed and led the witch Hu Hu quickly outside the cave.

…

When standing on the top of Yushan Mountain, the reef group on the north side of the island does not seem to be big, but when you get closer, you will find that the scale of this reef group is really not small.

Wu Liang visually estimated that the reef group covers an area of ​​about one square kilometer, which is almost as big as Yushan.

The only difference is that Yushan is a cone-shaped mountain, while the rocks in this reef group have many stone pillars similar to those on the Gobi Desert. The bottom and middle parts have been eroded by the waves, and they look like tops of rocks.

The huge mushroom, more than ten meters high, looks like a maze composed of irregular rock walls.

On the way here, Wu Liang had already briefly discussed some of the important contents in "Yang Shen Zhi Tong Yao" with the witch Hu. Naturally, the witch Hu had some understanding of Wu Liang's purpose of coming here. As soon as he arrived, he was already looking around for help.

Search for the remains of the giant beast recorded in "Yang Shen Zhi Tong Yao".

However, the reaction of the old macaque king was a bit abnormal.

It seemed to know what was in this reef group, and was a little wary of what was inside. As soon as it reached the edge, it pulled the hemp rope around its neck and refused to enter.

besides.

Ever since it came out of the cave, it seemed to be a little wary of the witch Hu. When walking on the road just now, it always deliberately avoided her and tried to walk on Wu Liang's side as much as possible.

Wu Liang kept these details in mind, especially its reaction to this reef group, which made Wu Liang also think that there might be some unknown dangers in this place. But now that the matter was at this point, no matter how he left Zuzhou, he would not

You must enter the reef group to check it out, otherwise this will be the biggest regret of this trip. You will not be able to sleep in the future. The next time you come to this place will be more than ten years later, and things may have changed by then.

In the end, Wu Liang beat the old macaque king quite humanely, and then forcibly dragged him in...

It’s not for anything else, I just want to use the old macaque king to give myself a warning. After all, some of the senses of animals are actually stronger than humans. What’s more, he was once the king of this place. Although he can’t speak or write,

You will definitely know more things, and you will definitely be able to respond in advance before danger comes.

Not long after we entered the reef group.

"Wu Taishi, what do you think this is?"

The witch Hubi behind him suddenly stopped him. Wu Liang turned around and saw that the witch Hubi had a few small gravels in her hands and had pieced them together.

"fish?"

Wu Liang was slightly stunned and moved closer to observe carefully.

This is indeed a fish, but it is not that big, probably only as long as a handful. Although the fins no longer exist, you can still clearly see the other characteristics of this fish.

Its head is relatively blunt, its body is slender and oval-shaped, its head is slightly larger and its tail is slightly smaller. Its mouth is relatively large, and its upper jaw is slightly longer than its lower jaw. This is...

Wu Liang also had little research on fish, and could not identify the specific species of this stonefish based on these characteristics.

But looking at this fish from the perspective of a foodie, Wu Liang felt that it looked very much like the small yellow croaker that was often eaten in later generations.

Moreover, small yellow croakers are native to the coastal areas of the Bohai Sea, East China Sea, and Yellow Sea in China, and Zuzhou is located along the coast of the East China Sea, which is completely correct.

So let's just think of it as a small yellow croaker.

At this moment, the little yellow croaker had broken into six small stones. If it were thrown separately on the ground, Wu Liang would only regard it as a few inconspicuous small stones and would not be able to piece together such a complete fish.

So Wu Liang looked at the witch in confusion and said, "Miss, where did you find this thing?"

"right here."

The witch Hu then turned back and pointed at a small hole in the reef that was slightly larger than her fist. "This stone fish is in this small hole. Maybe there is not much space in the small hole, so after the stone fish splits

, it was not scattered around, it still maintained the shape of the fish, I just took it out intact."

"Um……"

Wu Liang nodded slightly, what the witch said was reasonable.

"Furthermore, the rock used by this stone fish is very similar to the rock on Jade Mountain. Although there is no trace of jade, it already feels cold at this moment."

The witch said seriously, "So I speculate that this stone fish may not be artificially carved, but it was transformed after eating black soil and dying, as recorded in "Yangshenzhi Tongyao"."

Wu Liang nodded again and said attentively: "It is indeed written in "Yang Shen Zhi Tong Yao" that fish will also eat black soil made from corpses, but it is different from humans, macaques and other animals. Fish, birds, and snakes have eaten black soil.

It does not cause loss of fertility, but the "Yangshenzhi Tongyao" does not state whether fish that die after eating black soil will also turn into stones, so..."

Having said this, Wu Liang realized another problem that was not a problem and glanced sideways at Miko Hu.

Although Miko Hu's speculation is sound and well-founded, there are no big flaws in her words.

But this is something that is not stated in "Yang Shen Zhi Tong Yao" after all. Not only was the witch Hu the first to discover the stone fish, but she was also the first to make such a conjecture...Wu Liang always felt that he was a step too late and was being guided.

a feeling of.

Then Wu Liang shook his head again.

It is also possible that he was overly concerned. After all, he admitted that this problem was not actually a problem, it could not prove anything, and there was no obvious loophole.

"So what?"

The miko Hu asked in confusion.

"Nothing, just put this stone fish away first. Maybe it can be used later."
To be continued...
