Tomb Raiders

Chapter 72 Penglai Immortal Island

A group of people stood on the deck and watched for a while. The fog had filled the ship, and then submerged the whole ship.Half a moment later, the white mist was too thick to melt away. Shen Liaobai stretched out his hand to touch it, and the mist seemed to be alive, surging with his palm.

The sea was calm and calm, only the sound of the waves churning occasionally, and their current vision could only reach the point where they could see the face of the opposite person clearly. Chu Yuyang silently hugged Shen Liaobai, pulled him towards him, sharp His eyes kept staring at the seascape ahead hidden under the thick fog.

Shen Liaobai's facial features are sharper than ordinary people's, but now he doesn't feel any threat, and naturally he doesn't seem to be on guard from Chu Yuyang. He stands quietly against Chu Yuyang, feeling the contact of flowing mist with his skin. Gentle and soft touch when coming.

"Liaobai, Jianyang..." Qin Zhaonan's voice came from the bow of the boat, "Come and see..."

Chu Yuyang took down a lantern on the pole of the boat and led Shen Liaobai towards the bow of the boat. When he got to the bow of the boat, he finally understood why Qin Zhaonan was yelling. A dark area that seemed to undulate with the surge of the sea as the waves pushed the ship forward.

"When we entered the tombs of Zhangjiao and Zhao Tuo, there was also fog, but it was not as sticky as here." Shen Liaobai said, he was probably the most calm among the dozens of people on board at this time, although he didn't know Why, he even felt that the exhaustion of sailing at sea for a few days was gone.

Chu Yuyang looked at him, hesitated for a moment, then raised his head to look at the darkness and ordered: "Raise the sails and go forward."

"But..." The boatman at the helm was about to speak, but immediately shut his mouth after meeting Chu Yuyang's eyes as cold as ice mist. Although he hesitated, Chu Yuyang was the master now, so he could only obey the order.

The wind and waves in the night were much stronger than in the daytime. As soon as the boatmen raised their sails, the huge fishing boat quickly sailed towards the dark area, but strangely, the dark area seemed to be moving forward. After driving forward for an hour, the distance between them did not close at all.

The hands and feet of the boatman at the helm are already a little cold. He has been in this industry for some years, and he has encountered many strange things, but this is the first time he knows that there are tigers in the mountain and goes to the mountain. The local villagers talked about this sea area. At that time, they only thought that the local villagers exaggerated, and Qin Zhaonan asked a high price, so they followed without thinking. The flower of life is.

The boatman was about to discuss the return voyage with Chu Yuyang, when he heard Shen Liaobai say, "The fog has lightened."

Sure enough, the thick mist just now was slowly dissipating, and the cool sea breeze with moisture blew across his cheeks. Shen Liaobai raised his head, and he could vaguely see the stars in the sky under the dark blue night, and the situation ahead became clearer. .The ship broke through the thick fog, and an island appeared in front of it. The island emitted bright starlight. The starlight was very familiar to Shen Liaobai, and it must be the cave grass.

Qin Zhaonan frowned, pointed to a piece of driftwood floating on the sea not far away and said, "It turns out that we have been circling around here just now, and we haven't advanced much at all. No wonder we can't get close to that area."

Chu Yuyang nodded, and said: "There is nothing to refer to in the mist, and the attention is too focused on the island in front, so it is normal to not be able to distinguish the direction."

Qin Zhaonan rubbed his chin, saw the boat getting closer and closer to the island, and said: "Those fishermen have been traveling in this sea area all year round, why didn't they see this island, we found it within two days, it's really too much Lucky."

After the fog completely dissipated, a full moon slowly emerged from behind the clouds. The moonlight was like hoarfrost, shining on the deck. Chu Yuyang looked at Shen Liaobai. At some point, Shen Liaobai had left his side and ran to Standing at the bow of the boat, he climbed on the railing and looked at the islands in the distance. His face was a little excited, and he didn't look like a sick person at all.

"Perhaps it's the right time, place and people. Although we have the idea that we may return, Liao Bai has always believed that we can find this island. Maybe it is also destined." Chu Yuyang said while Shen Liaobai He put on his hood, the sea was windy, he was afraid that Shen Liaobai would freeze.

Shen Liaobai turned around and smiled slightly. Just then, he realized that his cheeks were a little stiff from the cold sea breeze, so he warmed his hands and rubbed his cheeks. Seeing this, Chu Yuyang immediately pulled him into his arms, and said with concern: " Go back to your room first, and call you when you get there."

Shen Liaobai pondered for a while, and said: "Don't go to the island today. Although there are cave grasses to illuminate, there are always many hidden dangers at night. Anyway, the island is there and you can't escape. When the ship approaches, you will be on the sea." Stay for one night and come back tomorrow.”

Chu Yuyang kissed the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile, "That's exactly what I meant."

When the morning sun rose from the sea on the second day, Chu Yuyang made preparations early. Because there were reefs in the sea ahead, the boat had to stay at the place closest to the island, and then put down the boat on the boat, and the four of them voluntarily Rowing to the island, there is not much food on the big boat. If you return to the voyage and come back, you may not find the island, so you can only stay on the sea and wait for Chu Yuyang and his party to return. After finding the undead tree before the food ran out, Chu Yuyang gave some instructions on what to do next, and then boarded a boat and headed towards the island.

After about half an hour, they arrived at the island called Penglai Fairy Island on the sea chart. After walking through a section of sandy road soaked in seawater, Shen Liaobai finally stepped on solid soil.At this time the sun had risen to midair, and the mist in the forest was also dissipating. Looking ahead, he saw a piece of verdant trees with glistening dew hanging on the treetops. The cave grass that grows in the whole piece gathers its leaves during the day and waits for the night to bloom again.

"If these plants weren't so huge...this is just an ordinary island." Qin Zhaonan raised his head and sighed.

Indeed, the plants here are ridiculously large, not to mention the cave grass that grows to the height of the knees at the feet, what they saw in Zhao Tuo's tomb only grew to the height of the ankles, and some even climbed tiny The vines on the wall and the weeds in front of them should be the same as the usual roadside grass, but here they grow up to their waists.

Chu Yuyang looked at the endless weeds in front of him, and the tall trees covering the sky and the sun in front of him, some of which were so tall that they couldn't see the end, he frowned slightly, he was not afraid of difficulties, but just afraid of Shen Liaobai The body can't hold on.

"What's the matter?" Seeing that they were no longer moving forward, Shen Liaobai asked with some doubts.

"Master's complexion seems to be much better." Wen Hao said hesitantly, he is a doctor, and he is more sensitive and sensitive to people's complexion than ordinary people.

Because of walking for a long time, Shen Liaobai broke out in hot sweat, and naturally took off his cloak and put it on his hands. At this time, he was using his hands as a fan to vigorously fan his reddened cheeks.

Seeing his appearance, Chu Yuyang was startled, stepped forward and touched his neck with his hands, it was warm, even the sweat was warm, since Shen Liaobai came out of Zhao Tuo's tomb , his hands and feet are always cold, and he would sweat coldly at night when he steals dreams. At this time, Shen Liaobai seemed to have returned to the healthy appearance he had when he met Chu Yuyang for the first time.

The three of them looked at Shen Liaobai in a daze. Shen Liaobai had just noticed the changes in himself slowly. He moved his hands and feet in disbelief, and asked in surprise, "What's going on?"

"Did Mr. Button make any progress with Shen Yingqing?" asked Hao, "It might be because of his influence."

"It would be great if that's the case." Shen Liaobai said with a smile.

At this time, his smile was really full of peach blossoms and spring breeze, Chu Yuyang hadn't seen him so happy for a long time, if it wasn't for Shen Liaobai's thin skin, he really wanted to go forward and kiss Shen Liaobai's smiling lips.

"I think it's the influence of anger." Chu Yuyang still couldn't help holding Shen Liaobai's hand, touching his warm fingertips and saying, "Mr. You see, the plants on this island grow so lushly, it must be a rare place full of vitality, but this is also a good thing, you brothers influence each other, if Liao Bai's body recovers, Shen Yingqing will also be healthy. Can last longer."

"Both left and right are good," Shen Liaobai said, because of his recovery, he was also in a good mood, raised his brows slightly, and said with a smile: "In this way, you don't have to worry about my body anymore. I can do my best as well.”

Chu Yuyang's mood at this time is as bright as the rising sun, but his face is still not warm. He looks around, the island is densely covered with cypresses, and there are too many places that cannot be seen, most of which are flat land He took Shen Liaobai's hand, stepped on the waist-high weeds and said: "Then don't delay any longer, let's go to the mountain in front, after reaching the high point It's easier to see."

Shen Liaobai took a deep breath, as if he had won a favorable situation for the first time, he always felt that this trip would be easier than the previous two experiences.
