Chapter 98: Dragon Palace of the Dead Ship (20)
"Why does Dragon Palace exist?"
The woman muttered to herself and repeated the question asked by the dragon.
she does not know.
She only knew that Dragon Palace was the place that almost killed her, as well as Chen Baizhou's grandfather and father.
Qi Wuling stretched out his hand and pulled out the dragon scale stuck in his knuckles out of boredom while listening with his ear tilted.
The four-legged water snake took a look at the huge palace and lowered its head: "Dragon Palace is a utopia created to protect this deep sea area. It is also a Garden of Eden created to protect fishermen."
"The dragons are stationed in the Dragon Palace, responsible for preventing shipwrecks and minimizing accidents at sea. The safe navigation of mankind is inseparable from the dragons controlling the waves and weather in the territorial waters."
"The dragons wouldn't show up, and the humans wouldn't have discovered us."
"In fact, at that time, no human could reach the Dragon Palace and make a wish to us. So we didn't know that we had this special right to fulfill human wishes. It was like a reward from the gods to humans. Once a human arrived at the Dragon Palace and made a wish, the dragon would turn his wish into reality."
"Slowly, as time goes by, humans who meet the requirements will have the right to make a wish."
"But they are only a minority, and there have been only a handful of them over the past few hundred years."
"Until that year—"
The four-legged water snake's gaze fell on the descending sphere, which reflected a huge scene on the sea in the center of the palace.
The wind and waves are fierce and the weather is extremely bad.
A little baby fell into the sea and cried non-stop.
The baby's crying voice made all the adults present feel heartbroken.
A middle-aged man who looked a little weathered stood up and jumped into the rough sea.
The middle-aged man lifted the young baby above his head and swam to the side of the boat.
Everyone rushed to lend a hand and carried the baby onto the boat.
But the middle-aged man's physical strength seemed to have reached its limit.
With his hands tightly grasping the hull, the people on the boat also tried to pull him up.
But the next second, a huge wave came over.
The middle-aged man was covered.
When the sea returned to calm, the man was no longer visible.
The man fell into the sea, his body struggling and sinking, and it seemed that he was about to die.
But a kind and honest fisherman who drowned while saving others should not have died like this.
Then the dragon sensed him and took him to the Dragon Palace.
The man is given the right to make every wish to the gods for his good deeds.
He was incredulous and thought shyly: "Life is a bit hard. If wishes are true, can I wish that I can catch fish every day when I go out to sea?"
This wish is very simple and small.
Even for the wishes that Dragon had fulfilled, this wish didn't even seem like a wish.
Long agreed.
The middle-aged man opened his eyes again and found himself lying on the beach.
There is also a huge ship with complete facilities next to it.
There is also a brand new name on it - Fisherman.
As he had wished, the cabin was full of fish.
Come back fully loaded.
The man was extremely satisfied and was eager to share this magical experience and joy with his parents, wife and children.
The scene in the light ball is temporarily shown here.
Qi Wuling calmed down and thought: So far, no changes have taken place, but I'm afraid it won't be long before they happen.
The woman next to her exclaimed that it was impossible when she saw this.
She shouted loudly, "Impossible! Chen Baizhou said that his grandfather never came back to save me! He fell into the sea and was taken to the Dragon Palace, but he never came out of the Dragon Palace again!"
Qi Wuling heard this and grasped the message: "He is using this as a pretext to repay a favor so that you will willingly pave the way for him to successfully come to Dragon Palace."
"Even to be his guinea pig, right?"
Qi Wuling's gaze fell on the woman in front of him.
The woman kept shaking her head: "He came to the Dragon Palace to find his grandfather. He didn't threaten me. I came here voluntarily. If it weren't for me, his grandfather wouldn't have died..."
The four-legged water snake glanced at the woman and said, "What's your name now?"
The woman’s voice was very low: “Xiangyang.”
The four-legged water snake was silent for a moment: "Xiangyang? It's a good name, but what I want to tell you is that the person who saved you did not die in the Dragon Palace."
Xiang Yang was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean?!"
Qi Wuling's face remained calm: "I heard in the mermaid tomb of Chen Baizhou's father that his grandfather hanged himself to death."
"And the timeline is very clear. Half a year has passed since I saved you."
"So, Chen Baizhou's grandfather is still alive after saving you, and he didn't die because of you."
"But Chen Baizhou said--" Xiang Yang looked confused, as if she was trying hard to recall what Chen Baizhou had said to her. She tried to deny Qi Wuling's words, but could not find any evidence.
Xiangyang met Qi Wuling's eyes which were like a pool of black ink, with a hint of dark green showing through, making him look extremely cold.
Qi Wuling said expressionlessly: "Chen Baizhou is younger than you. When his grandfather saved you, his father was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and he was not even born yet."
"How can you be sure that what he told you is the truth when even you, the person involved, doesn't know it?"
Xiangyang pursed his lips and said no more.
Qi Wuling looked at the four-legged water snake again, with a half-smile on his face: "So, the disaster in the Dragon Palace has nothing to do with Chen Baizhou's grandfather. He was just the beginning of this incident. In fact, the driving force behind the scenes should be Chen Baizhou and his father."
Long blinked, looked Qi Wuling up and down, and circled around him. Finally, he stopped and hunched his body on the ground, but his eyes were still fixed on Qi Wuling.
Qi Wuling took it calmly.
Long asked curiously, "Did you evolve secretly without telling humans?"
??? What the hell???
Qi Wuling frowned.
Long asked a question: "The scene we just watched did not reveal anything related to Chen Baizhou and his father. How did you determine that the disaster in Dragon Palace was related to them?"
Qi Wuling glanced at the palace gate expressionlessly, as if his eyes were already fixed outside.
He said: "When a person makes a wish and it comes true, it is a huge temptation for anyone."
"Just because this man made a simple wish doesn't mean everyone in his family thinks so."
"Combined with the fact that the man wanted to share this story when he got home, and the mermaid outside the palace at this time, it is not difficult to guess that the man's son was greedy and wanted to swallow an elephant, so he chose to come to the Dragon Palace to make a new wish."
"And since the mermaid only has a father and no grandfather, it can be seen that only the man's son returned to the Dragon Palace, and then something happened to turn him into a monster and make him unable to leave here forever."
……
Qi Wuling's well-reasoned conclusion made the four-legged water snake look complicated, and its mouth opened and closed, as if it wanted to say something but stopped.
Long couldn't help but ask, "Are you really not in the same group as Chen Baizhou?"
Qi Wuling's eyes flashed with a smile that was not easily noticed: "Chen Baizhou probably doesn't have the qualifications to be my teammate."
Fortunately, there are only three of them in the palace now.
If Xu Yi heard this, he would be so proud of himself that he would burst into laughter.
Xu Yi: Hahahahahaha, the position of my good buddy’s teammate is not something that just anyone can do. Only a Number One handsome guy like me who combines handsomeness, beauty, wisdom and talent is qualified, okay~
The superiors can be used as handy props, and the subordinates can be used willingly.
Can any of you here do that? You can't.
and so!
He deserves to be his best friend's teammate!
Back to the topic, Xu Yi is still outside thinking about how to destroy the palace.
Su Shenchuan and Xu Yi have already exchanged all the information they know with each other.
Both men agreed that the palace would be destroyed sooner or later.
Whether from the perspective of their position being tied to the dragon or in case something went wrong with Qi Wuling in the palace, the palace must be destroyed.
The palace was built by mermaids to suppress the dragon spirit.
Convenient for making wishes.
Then as long as the palace is destroyed, the dragon soul should be able to come out.
Even if they couldn't get out, at least they could see Qi Wuling's condition inside.
It’s not a loss.
Just as several people gathered together to plot.
Zhang Yitian took out the irregular crystal stone she had picked up from the sculpture fragments, spread it on her palm, and looked at Su Shenchuan and Xu Yi: "I found this when I broke the mermaid sculpture in the tomb. What is the use of this thing?"
Xu Yi pondered for a moment: "Found in the mermaid sculpture, it should be related to the dragon. Something that has to be kept close to the body must have a special meaning. Although I don't know what it is used for yet."
Su Shenchuan: ...
Ding Yang: This guy talks a lot of nonsense. He misses the captain. Where is the captain?
Guo Peidong: He seemed to say a lot, but nothing he said was useful.
Inside the palace, the scene in the center of the light ball changed again.
It was the man's home. Old Chen and his son seemed to have had a fierce argument, with both sides' faces red.
In the end, the matter ended with Lao Chen's compromise and concession.
The scene changed and appeared on the sea again.
But this time, a different group of people came.
There is no Lao Chen.
There was only his son and some villagers.
As the huge ship sailed, two words were added to the Fisherman on top.
Changed to Fisherman's Exploration.
Perhaps Chen Baizhou's father couldn't wait to explore the secrets of the Dragon Palace.
At this time, his father was young and energetic.
That's understandable.
However, what made Qi Wuling a little curious was that there was no ghost ship and no entrance to the Dragon Palace at that time.
Then how would he get to the Dragon Palace?
After thinking about it, Qi Wuling finally understood: repeat the same mistake and do the same thing.
Directly simulate his father's state at that time.
What is his father's condition like?
If he drowns in the sea to save people, he should not die. And the dragon, as the god who protects them, will naturally not allow such a thing to happen.
So... as long as Chen Baizhou's father can be cruel to himself, he will repeat what happened to Old Chen.
When Qi Wuling thought about this, he suddenly remembered that on the ghost ship, the entrance to the Dragon Palace was a state where people would drown and be on the verge of death.
So this was not without cause, but because this was the beginning of the disaster.
Causes started by humans will naturally bear fruit with humans.
But I never thought... no matter what the state is, as long as it can really reach the Dragon Palace, there will always be people who will throw themselves into the fire.
Perhaps, from the moment the fishermen protected by it knew the existence of the Dragon Palace, the Dragon Palace was destined to be in turmoil.
