After the holy monk dropped his vest

The inscription on the bottom of the water is very light in color, and it is almost impossible to distinguish it after being covered by the spring water.

This place is also the holy land of the merman race. Only the young merman enter the spring to soak in it. It is understandable that no one has discovered the secret of the bottom of the spring for a long time.

Lu Heng pointed, and the spring water rose slowly, forming a huge water ball suspended in the air, revealing the secret hidden at the bottom of the holy spring.

Sure enough, as Lu Heng expected, a formation was engraved at the bottom of the holy spring.Lu Heng summoned Siri and recorded all the formations in it.

The few people on the side didn't understand the way of formation, so they could only watch Lu Heng study it.

After a moment.

"This array can transmit the energy of the holy spring."

"The depletion of the holy spring has something to do with this array?" Quan asked first.

Lu Heng shook his head: "This formation is extremely fine. Perhaps the people who set up the formation are also worried about hurting the root of the holy spring. This formation is actually a two-way transmission formation."

Lu Heng glanced at the shallow spring water and added.

"It can be said that without this formation, the holy spring might have completely disappeared long ago."

"Where is the other end of the formation?"

"I think we need to go to Turtle Island."

Lu Heng didn't answer Quanxian's question directly. In his heart, he always felt that when Quanxian saw the statue in the Sea God Temple, maybe there would be answers to these things.

"Pearl and I are going to the main island to inform the family, lest they worry." Coral said, and then she said something to Quanxian in the shark language, which should be to inform Quanxian of the location of Turtle Island.

At this moment, it has been almost a day since Pearl was tied up. In order to prevent Pearl's family from worrying, the group did not stay in Yuren City.

After leaving the Merman City, the five of them split up.

Pearl and Coral went to the main island, and Lu Heng and the others first went to Turtle Island to explore the mysterious formation.

When we arrived at Turtle Island, it was already the early morning of the second day, and the sky was only slightly pale.

The entire Turtle Island is still in a deep sleep, not even the sound of chickens crowing and dogs barking.

A silence.

This happened to be convenient for the three of Lu Heng to act. Turtle Island is not big, and the residents all know each other.

Even though Lu Heng lived here for a while, the residents on the island are familiar with him.But if it happened that he brought two strangers to the island again, and these two strangers still looked so unusual.

It is inevitable to have to explain a few more words, but at this time, the effort of talking and talking is spared.

The statues in the Sea God Temple still stand gracefully above the shrine.Human body fish tail, hands and body sharp claws, eyes half-closed, with a gentle demeanor.

When Lu Heng saw Quanxian's mermaid form, he hadn't guessed whether the statue in the Sea God Temple was based on Quanxian.But this idea was quickly rejected by him, because the merman in the Sea God Temple was a woman.

This statue is carved extremely meticulously, and the appearance and body of this female mermaid are all carved lifelike, not the kind of rough statue that can't be distinguished.

Seeing the face of the statue, Quan Xian was stunned.He stared at the statue in the temple for a long time without opening his mouth, with a nostalgic but somewhat sad look on his face.

Seeing that he seemed to be immersed in memories, Lu Heng didn't bother him, but walked out the door.

"Master, please help me." Lu Heng turned around and said.

Shi Kong didn't reply, but Lu Heng knew that the other party agreed.

"Pull up all the floor tiles, I want to see the formation below."

After finishing speaking, Lu Heng called out Xi Rui who was staying in the sea of ​​qi.He didn't realize at all that he seemed to be more and more reckless when he called Shikong.

The two moved neatly, and within a short time they recorded the whole picture of the formation one by one. When Quanxian woke up from his memories, he went out to look for someone.

Lu Heng happened to put the last stone brick back.

"The statue inside is my sister."

Quan first stood at the gate of the Sea God Temple, staring blankly at the distant sky.After a long time, he sighed quietly.

"Actually, she should be the king of the mermaid clan. She is more powerful than my bloodline..."

Later, Quanxian's sister fell in love with a human being.Mermaids do not intermarry with other races, let alone become kings of the Merman tribe.For that human being, Quanxian's sister gave up her clan.

She chose to live on land, and since then, she has never returned to the Merman City in the deep sea.

Since then, she has become an object that cannot be discussed among the mermaids, and her existence has also been erased.

"I never thought that my sister would have blood left behind. If the mermaid's blood is not washed by the holy spring, it will ossify and die shortly after birth. And my sister, without the power of the holy spring for a long time, will lose her lifespan." become shorter, and slowly lose the power of the mermaid blood."

Quanxian looked back at Sea God Temple again: "We all thought that she was just like an ordinary human woman who died on land in order to stay with her lover forever, leaving no trace of her existence."

After listening to Lu Heng, there was no ripple in his heart.He was originally a rational person, and besides, Quan Xian's elder sister was also benevolent. When she left her clan and chose to stay with her lover on land, she had already anticipated this consequence.

There is nothing to be sorry about, and when this merman died, he should have no regrets in his heart.

"Your sister may not have been back to Yuren City." Lu Heng said, "At least, she must have been back to the Holy Spring once."

Quan raised his head first, wondering why Lu Heng could be so sure.

"Siri."

Siri came out in response, and a huge light curtain unfolded in midair.

The formation inscription found at the bottom of the Yuren Holy Spring, and Lu Heng's formation under the floor tiles of the Sea God Temple just now were displayed on the light curtain.

Even if Quan didn't know the formation method first, he could see from the movement of these inscriptions that there must be a connection between them.

"The formation at the bottom of the holy spring is the main formation, and the one on Turtle Island is the auxiliary formation. I heard from Pearl that there are other islands dedicated to the Sea God Temple in the Far East, and they must have similar auxiliary formations." .”

These formations transmit the power of the holy spring to these islands.

Although it is not enough to awaken the blood of these islanders, it can guarantee that there will be no problems with their bodies.Until the power of the holy spring starts to dry up, the power transmitted by the formation is not enough to protect the islanders.

Therefore, the islanders of these islands began to have strange diseases that could not walk.The bloodlines of humans and mermen clashed in their bodies, they could not turn into fish tails, and lost the strength of human legs.

"After seeing the whole picture of the auxiliary formation, I am even more sure that the holy spring has been able to survive until now. This formation has actually played a big role. Although the blood of these islanders is not pure, their number is much larger than your mermaids. Their body The power of the weak bloodlines, gathered together is not a small force of life, which has stopped the drying up of the holy spring by a lot."

"I once asked Pearl, and she said that there are more than ten islands enshrining the Sea God Temple. After a rough calculation, there are at least a thousand islanders with mermaid blood. If all these islanders can be awakened, the Holy Spring will It might come back to life."

A series of news shocked Quan Xian for a long time before he came back to his senses.

He originally thought that he was the last living mermaid in this endless east sea.I was overjoyed to see pearls and corals suddenly yesterday.

However, Lu Heng told him that there are still thousands of clansmen in this extreme east country.

Even though the bloodlines of these sharks are impure, as long as the Guanzhi pearls and corals are washed by the holy spring, they can awaken the power of their bloodlines.

Now that the mermaids are about to be exterminated, Quan Xian is not a stubborn and stubborn person who is almost stupid, so how could he refuse to accept these people because of some impure blood.

Lu Heng only saw the muscles on Quan Xian's face tremble slightly, and his fists were clenched tightly, so he knew that he still needed some time to digest these shocking secrets.

After a while.

"Unexpectedly, the elder sister who abandoned her clan and went away by accident, turned out to be the savior of the mermaid clan..."

These islanders are not limited to intermarriage only on the island, their blood is not pure and fragile like those sharks in the deep sea.

Lu Heng did not forget where the tragedy of the mermaid clan's near extinction came from. He told Quan all his thoughts first, and also told him about the intermarriage customs among the monster clan.

Although he is the king of the monster race, he will not directly intervene in the food of the mermaid race.In the future, whether the mermaid tribe wants to change this custom of being closed and not communicating with the outside world, you have to make your own decision first.

Quanxian didn't think about it for too long at the moment, he just said: "People's hearts are unpredictable, and I still don't have any good feelings for human beings."

The mermaids can't be too far away from the holy spring, and the humans in the Far Eastern Kingdom are the best choice for the mermaids to marry.

However, Quanxian still does not want to have too much contact with humans.

Lu Heng understood Quanxian's thoughts. After all, he had witnessed his own people being cruelly refined into eternal lamps. Now it is not so easy for him to accept intermarriage with human beings.

Besides, there are too many precious things in the mermaid, and there is no great power.

Many human beings adhere to the idea that this non-human race must be different, and do not regard mermaids as equal beings, but like spirit flowers, spirit grass, and even spirit stones, which have no spiritual intelligence.

It's just refining materials.

Intermarrying with humans is indeed extremely risky.

However, since Quanxian is willing to communicate with the outside world, Lu Heng naturally has already thought about the way out for the mermaid race.

"Would you like to build a large teleportation array in Yuren City. The other end of the array is located in Queshan."

Quanxian quickly understood what Lu Heng meant, which was to open up a channel for the communication between the monster race and the mermaid race.

The merman is a branch of the Yaozu, and the Yaozu will naturally regard the merman as the same kind.

"nature."

"However, we have to wait for a while."

"Why?" Quan Xian finally saw the hope of the renaissance of the Merman, and he was very anxious.

"I forgot to mention one thing. I am the former demon king now, and Queshan is occupied by people." Lu Heng spread his hands and said without hesitation, "I have to deal with that brat first, and after taking back the throne, Only then have the time and resources to start building the teleportation array."

Mr. Quan thought of the snake bone qin in his hand.That's right, now that Lu Heng's snake bones have been taken out and refined into pianos, the situation is not very good at first glance.

The mystery of the shark has been completely solved.

Pearl saves Lu Heng.Now the residents of Turtle Island, Pearl's relatives and friends, because Lu Heng will no longer be troubled by strange diseases in the future.

Quan first rescued Shi Kong, but because of Lu Heng and Shi Kong, there was hope for the continuation of the race.

All causes and effects have come to an end.

Lu Heng didn't intend to stay here any longer. After discussing with Tong Quan, he decided to return to the main island and explain to Pearl before leaving here.

Leave that day.

Quan Xian will personally send them to the edge of the shark-shrouded extreme east country, and give the boat controlled by spiritual energy to Lu Heng.

"I wish you all the best." Quan waved his hand first, then handed over the Snake Bone Qin, "Let's return it to its original owner."

"Thank you for your good words." Lu Heng cupped his hands and was about to leave in the boat.

But he heard Quan Xian's voice behind him.

"and many more!"

When Lu Heng turned his head, something flew up from the sky.He subconsciously reached out to catch it, and a cold and round thing fell into his palm.

photo beads.

"At the beginning, when I killed the royal family of the Far East, I used the soul search technique to read his memory, and recorded it all in this photo bead. Including how he obtained the snake bone zither, I hope to help you."

Lu Heng laughed loudly: "It won't take long for me to come back and build the formation for you sharks."

The figures of Lu Heng and the two of them, driving the boat, slowly disappeared on the sea level.

Quan Xian, who was floating on the water, smiled slightly and said, "We will wait for your return, Wang."

He hummed the tune lightly, and a white mist gradually filled the sea.The transparent and dazzling golden fish tail rises high above the sea.

Water splashed everywhere, and then everything returned to calm.
