The girl traveled through another world and forced the prince to take the imperial examination

"What a pity! The good times didn't last!" Cang Xu sighed. "How unfair! The beautiful time left for you and your family of three has only lasted for a little over two months, and then danger suddenly strikes!"

Yun Qing's expression instantly grew tense, and he hurriedly asked, "Danger? What kind of danger?"

Cang Xu's expression grew increasingly solemn. He took a deep breath and continued, "That day, the tranquility of the bamboo forest was suddenly shattered by the sound of a melodious melody. It was a melodious, heavenly music, unlike anything we'd ever heard before. It seemed to come from heaven, leaving us captivated. The four of us were all warriors, and we didn't understand music, but we simply found the music beautiful, captivating, and we involuntarily followed it out of the bamboo forest.

If it weren't for the sudden appearance of Crown Prince Shao Jun at the critical moment and the slapping of one of us, we would have fallen into the hands of the enemy!"

Hiss! It's so powerful! Yun Qing couldn't help but gasp, secretly amazed. Suddenly, a story about ghosts that his master once told him emerged in his mind.

Legend has it that on the night of the 15th day of the lunar month, when the moon is full, fishermen living by the sea hear a melodious and beautiful melody. This music, like the sounds of nature, captivates and captivates. Unable to resist, one man journeys to the beach and sees a beautiful woman sitting on a boulder by the sea, playing an instrument.

In her hand she held a pan flute, the pipe of which was made of no ordinary material but a kind of jade with an oily sheen. In the moonlight, the jade flute looked particularly mysterious.

Anyone who hears this music will involuntarily walk towards the beach, whether they are dazzled by the woman or captivated by the music.

When daybreak came, those who were bewitched by the music died tragically in the sea, their hearts and lungs hollowed out.

Fishermen said that this beautiful woman was actually a mermaid in the sea. She used her enchanting music to attract humans and then brutally killed them to satisfy her appetite. Therefore, the enchanting music was named "Sea Charm".

Yun Qing didn't know why, but suddenly he remembered this story and asked hurriedly: "Did you see who was playing the music? What instruments were they holding?"

Cang Xu paused, recalling carefully, "After we regained consciousness, we felt completely powerless, unable to use even a fraction of our strength. His Highness ordered us to return to the bamboo forest, and we knew that staying would only hinder His Highness. However, we were worried about His Highness's safety, so we didn't return to the residence, but quietly stayed at the edge of the bamboo forest to watch.

Soon, we saw white shadows flying over. In a short while, dozens of people in white arrived from outside the forest! Just by listening, we knew that their martial arts skills were not inferior to ours!

Looking at those men in white, even though the four of us haven't been around much, we're still pretty knowledgeable and shocked by what we saw. We almost screamed!"

Cang Xu excitedly described his feelings at the time, but Yun Qing was extremely anxious: "Stop talking nonsense and get to the point!"

Cang Xu: "Ahem! Young Master, you have no idea how shocked we were at that time. Those people were wearing exactly the same clothes, were about the same age and looked pretty.

You have seen Jiuyou, right? Jiuyou is beautiful, isn’t she? Those people are all as beautiful as Jiuyou.”

Yun Qing couldn't help but become curious!

Cang Xu continued, "And the clothes they wear, I swear, that's definitely not something us mortals can make. The fabric is as white as snow, untouched by dust, and even glows white in the moonlight. Add to that their looks, they truly are immortals descended to earth."

Cang Xu suddenly approached Yun Qing and lowered his voice, a hint of unease in his tone: "The most amazing thing is that the weapons they hold, who knows what kind, can actually emit a dazzling light in the darkness, illuminating the night as bright as day. Isn't that amazing?"

If it weren't for the fact that Mu Qingcheng also had a weapon that could glow in the dark, Yun Qing would definitely not believe Cang Xu's words and would definitely call him talking nonsense.

"Have you seen the instruments they play? What are they?"

Cang Xu looked at Yun Qing in surprise. This kid wasn't curious about the glowing weapon at all. Could it be that he didn't believe it?

"How do you know they were using wind instruments, not plucked instruments?"

"No need to guess. The sound of blowing can be heard from far away, and it is also convenient to carry."

Cang Xu thought about it carefully and felt that what Yun Qing said made sense: "It should be an instrument like a pan flute. I only saw that the leader seemed to be holding a pan flute in his hand."

The pan flute is indeed a pan flute. The only instrument that can play the enchanting song "Sea Charm" is the pan flute.

"What material is it made of?" Yun Qing asked hurriedly.

Cang Xu frowned and thought for a moment: "It looks like jade, but it's not jade. It looks like... it should... maybe... it's probably made of some kind of animal bone."

A glint flashed across Yun Qing's eyes: "Have you ever heard of 'Sea Charm'?"

"Sea Charm!" Cang Xu was startled: "Young Master, have you also heard of Sea Charm?"

Yun Qing: "My master told me a story about a mermaid demon."

Cang Xu was even more surprised. "This story is only known to the fishermen living by the sea. We often heard this story from them because we were guarding the fake prince on the island a few years ago. I didn't expect that Taoist Wuji is so knowledgeable that he also knows this story."

Yun Qing didn't think so. His master was a very serious person and would never tell him an absurd folk legend for no reason. So what was the connection between them?

Could it be that his master knew the origins of these people and wanted to convey some message to him through this story?

Can't figure it out! According to Nuan Nuan's law, if you can't figure something out, just let it go. Who knows, the answer will soon surface.

Yun Qing changed the subject: "Do they have any other powerful weapons?"

Cang Xu perked up again: "In addition to the glowing weapon in their hands, they also know magic and can create fire out of thin air. At that time, they wanted to break into the bamboo forest. We had a formation, so they couldn't get in. So they wanted to burn the bamboo forest with fire and then break in.

We saw with our own eyes that they could flick their fingers and fire would come out of their fingertips.”

Cang Xu looked at Yun Qing with excitement and anticipation: "Young Master, please don't disbelieve me, everything I said is true. Otherwise, ask Cang Nan later, he won't lie."

Yun Qing: "I believe you!"

"Ahh!..." Cang Xu had more exciting descriptions that he hadn't used yet, so how could the young master believe it!

Yun Qing ignored Cang Xu's suspicious look and continued to ask, "Did my father fight with them?"

Cang Xu shook his head: "Your Highness just stood by the bamboo forest, said a few words to them, and then retreated back to the bamboo forest."

"What did they say?"

"The leader in white said, 'We are here to retrieve the goddess at the order of the Holy Lord. You, a mere mortal, have repeatedly resisted.' The Holy Lord was furious and ordered us to capture both of you.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince smiled coldly at them: If you want to catch me, let’s see if you have the ability to do so!

The man in white said: You don’t know your own limitations!

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said arrogantly: I just don’t accept it, what can you do to me?

The man in white was furious: "Ha! What a big tone! I think you'd better hand over the goddess and save your own life first!"

His Highness said: She is my wife, I will never let her go with you, and she never wants to be your damn goddess.

The man in white was immediately furious when he heard this: How dare you blaspheme the divine realm? You are so bold.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said: Stop talking nonsense. If you want to catch me, let’s see if you have the ability to enter the bamboo forest.

Later, His Royal Highness retreated back to the bamboo forest. Speaking of which, it was truly miraculous. The formation set up by Taoist Wuji was truly ingenious! Those men in white couldn't get into the bamboo forest, no matter how hard they tried, whether they used Qing Gong or fire attacks.
