Genius Demon Empress - Chapter 571

Zhenmu Reef is located in the waters bordering the Vatican Sea inside and outside. It was not originally a reef, it was just a sea of ​​thriving mother-of-pearl. Although the mother-of-pearl produced here is only the size of a thumb.

The pearls that can be collected from the shell are the size of a thumb, and the color is particularly glazed blue, which is loved by the imperial nobility and the rich.

In the early years, there were many private pearl-harvesting boats in this area. A large number of collected mother-of-pearl shells were dumped here, and after many years, this special lime-like shell reef was stacked. group.

Later, due to the needs of the Vatican Port construction, the mother-of-pearl was carefully fished, and the pearl-picking boat stopped operations.

After hundreds of years of cultivation, mother-of-pearl in this area has gradually multiplied, and fishermen have once encountered in this area giant-sized mother-of-pearl that can swallow young baby sharks.

But most of the time, Zhenmu Reef is calm and calm. Under the tile-blue sky, when the sun shines directly, the seawater turns into bright blue for a while, and then turns into agate green for a while.

The little boy in that fishing village broke free of Salman and jumped into the water like a dragon. It was very comfortable.

He was in a poor family, and because of his mother's illness, he needed money urgently.

When he was only three or four years old, he had heard that the fishermen from the neighbor's house next to the village plucked pearls near Zhenmu Jiao. After getting rich, he moved to the city.

He was young and did not have a separate fishing boat, but he heard the fishermen who stole the pearls. As long as the tide of the astronomical tide is high and the tide of the high tide falls, there will be a lot of thumb-sized mother-of-pearl rushing on the reef .

After all, Yu Dan was a child who grew up in a fishing village. He inquired about the days of the astronomical tide, and he was going to sneak out Duzhenmu Reef to stay for one night. I just thought that as long as I stayed on Zhenmu Reef for one night, I could easily pick up a bunch of mother-shells and go back the next day.

How did you know that Yue Jinghua and Sherman, who ran into patrol, had the earlier incident.

The fish eggs swam for more than a few hours, until the dark skin had a layer of floating white, and then I saw the piece of Zhenmu Reef that was exposed to the water.

He shook the water, and when he climbed up the reef, he tore off a few clusters of sea reeds that were growing beside the reef, and weaved a simple reed basket to hold Zhenmu Reef.

Although I have heard the name of Zhenmu Reef for a long time, it is the first time that fish eggs have come to this reef group.

After drying the water on his body, he looked around.

At this time, it was dark for a few minutes.

The fish eggs carefully touched a pack of flint stones wrapped in oil paper and lighted up carefully, so that they could see the whole picture of Zhenmu Reef.

The reefs washed away by the sea, with no corners at all, are black, and the surface is like a layer of wax, which is very slippery.

The entire Zhenmu reef is about 100 square meters, and there are some common seaweed and hermit crabs growing nearby.

At night, the tide began to rise gradually, and the sound of a fish trembled a little more loudly.

After all, he was just a child seven or eight years old.

"It's okay, but it's three or four hours. When the tide recedes, I'll have money to buy medicine for my mother and my siblings," the fish mumbled, his arms and legs clumped together, sitting on its own. On the reef, staring at a sea level higher than a wave.

After entering the night, the sea breeze also became cold from the humid and warm day, and the fish protein was struggling to soak up the water during the day, and it was lacking, and unknowingly fell asleep in the sound of the dull waves.

In the middle of the night, he felt wet and agitated, and woke up.

When he looked at the reefs at his feet, the face of the fish eggs was immediately pale. He clearly underestimated the scale of the sea tide during the astronomical tide. Before the tide, there were more than one hundred flat-sized Zhenmu reefs surrounded by sea water from all directions. Getting smaller and smaller.

Depending on the situation, after more than half an hour, it will be completely submerged.

Fish eggs would be tired and hungry. Something was terrifying in his heart. He seemed to hear something strange in the upsurge.

"Wait a second, it will soon ebb," the poor child swallowed, comforting himself.

But at this moment, his eyes narrowed suddenly and his knees became soft.

In the raging waves like a tiger, he saw a triangular fish back.

As a child living in a fishing village near the sea, fish eggs know exactly what that means.

The Death Triangle, a humpback shark from Vatican offshore, has sharp teeth and a steel body as hard as steel.

Legend has it that a group of humphead sharks attacked together and could even sink a sea-air ship.

Seeing that the shark was getting closer, frightened and tired, the fish eggs could not bear it anymore, and collapsed on the last reef.

At this time, Yue Jinghua and others also set sail from Vatican Harbor and headed for Zhenmu Jiao.

Despite the helmsman sent by Captain Ya Lei, Ke Yuehua was not able to go well with their sea and air ship.

At night, the wind direction of the sea breeze changed, and they had to temporarily stop the sailing boat and set about adjusting the direction of the air sail.

But after the sailboat adjusted its direction, the fishermen found that the boat suddenly couldn't move.

At this time, the waves had gradually risen on the sea, loomingly foreshadowing the upcoming astronomical tide. The crowd gathered around the deck and looked down, all taking a breath of air.

I thought it was the water on the sea that entangled the hull.

"It's a lantern jellyfish, it's a punch card, and a sea beast is punching a card." The underneath of the boat was like a neon light, a circle of orange and yellow, and experienced fishermen recognized the bottom of the boat at a glance.

I don't know if it is because of the high tide that those sea beasts that are underwater during the day are pouring into the water.

After they adjusted the direction of the sailing boat, the ship encountered the first round of sea animal punches, which also greatly delayed the speed of Yue Jinghua and others.

It was also the first time Yue Jinghua saw the so-called punch card.

The sea beast that grows in the Vatican harbor is a large number of lantern jellyfish. The whole body is shining with orange light, and it looks like a small chrysanthemum lamp in the dark night.

It's these jellyfish that look beautiful, but they are the deadliest killer around the beach.

Their cold and soft bodies are covered with thick tentacles, and the tentacles are covered with toxic sucker-like barbs. Whether it is human skin or the smooth deck of the hull, once it is absorbed by the lantern jellyfish column, It's hard to get rid of.

"How can this be done?" Those experienced fishermen were horrified. When they went out to sea, apart from sharks and whale-like beasts, they were most afraid of encountering such soft jellyfish.

"Don't worry, wait a little longer," Yue Jinghua looked calmer than the fishermen in panic.

Her star-like eyes were twinkling like a wolf king in the dark night.
