The interior of the shack seemed very narrow, and the environment was damp and dark, giving Xie Que a vague feeling of discomfort as if he were underwater.

What was unexpected was that after Ah Shui moved a water tank, an entrance was revealed at the bottom.

Ah Shui lit a torch and led the two of them down the tunnel.

On the wall beside the tunnel, the moist and loose soil was filled with fish scales the size of a palm.

A fishy smell that hit the heart and mind made Xie Que suddenly become miserable.

On the other hand, the two brothers actually seemed a little careless, and even had a hint of intoxication on their faces.

"It's been a long time since I've been back..." Pavilion Master Lu seemed to sigh, but was met with ridicule from his younger brother.

Ah Shui's tone became a bit sinister: "Yes, Master Lu, your last name has been changed, why are you coming back?"

The leader of the club couldn't help but blush: "I didn't join the boat gang at the beginning, so that our brothers' life would be easier."

Ah Shui snorted coldly: "So what if you join the boat gang? You are still begging for food on the water. What difference does it make?"

Xie Que was a little curious, so after asking some questions, he found out the reason why Master Lu changed his surname.

There is an extremely secret rule in the boat gang, that is, no one with the surname "Guo" is accepted.

The two of them came from a poor family, so when Lu Guanzhu was in his teens, he changed his surname and joined a boat gang.

But Ah Shui still retained his surname and continued to live in the family shack and depended on his parents who made a living by fishing.

As Ah Shui grew older, he gradually developed a sense of belonging and trust in the ancient family described by his father, and began to hate his brother's behavior.

Although the owner of the hotel often came back to visit his younger brother and mother with some belongings, his parents and younger brother gradually began to resist him.

Some of the legends or objects circulated in the family were only passed down to Ah Shui, and the owner of the museum became an outsider.

As their parents grew older or even passed away, there were some things that only Ah Shui knew.

Moreover, Ah Shui worships the sacred objects passed down in his family all the year round, and he spends most of the year living on his small boat.

The leader of the gymnasium, Lu, is in the boat gang and manages his own martial arts gym.

When Master Lu entered the country, he secretly taught his younger brother the boxing skills he had learned.

But he didn't expect Ah Shui to be a martial arts genius, and he had already reached the level of a martial arts master at the age of fifteen.

And created the unique secret weapon of Whale Hong Jue.

It is said that this is a martial art that Ah Shui learned after living and eating with giant whales underwater for many days.

It's just that Ah Shui is not competitive, and he doesn't have the temperament of a warrior. He still lives in this shack for more than sixty years, relying on a broken boat.

Although his younger brother hated him extremely, the owner of the hall would come to visit Ah Shui every few days.

After walking about twenty meters of circular stairs, they arrived at a wide basement.

This basement is actually more than 100 square meters in size.

Xie Que heard what Master Lu said that it was actually excavated by several generations of ancestors.

Neither Ah Shui nor Master Lu had any descendants, so they had no intention of carrying secrets into the grave. Instead, they told Xie Que all the things passed down by their parents.

But what they said was extremely unclear. One thing that impressed Xie Que most deeply was that their ancestors were said to have extremely long lives and never intermarry with outsiders.

This is vaguely similar to what Xie Que said about the people of Guojia Village in Futu Ridge.

When Xie Que mentioned the so-called "divine object", Ah Shui's expression gradually became respectful.

He spoke in a hoarse voice: "This thing is passed down from our ancestors. Although I don't know what it is, it must come from a real person who has entered the Taoism, or someone with a higher status."

He led the two of them and lifted up a large old canvas, revealing a tall altar.

On the altar, there was just a pair of snake-skin-like objects.

Xie Que's heart suddenly became agitated. This appearance was exactly the same as that of the slough at the bottom of the river!

The difference between the two is that this mutilated body does not have those scales.

Ah Shui lit a stick of incense and put it in the incense burner.

Immediately, he picked up the ladle of the water vat on the side and poured water on it.

This residual slough miraculously absorbed the water completely at this time, without missing a drop.

"Water has no permanent shape. It may be ice or air. It has neither birth nor death."

"Dragons are born in water and live forever, but they are trapped in the skin of the mortal world."

"Only by taking off the capsule and returning to the water can you live forever!"

As Ah Shui's hoarse and deep voice sounded again, a strange feeling surged into Xie Que's heart.

In Xie Que's eyes, the snake skin actually began to become blurry.

It began to transform into a dragon flying in the sky, or a fish swimming in the deep sea, and even transformed into a fairy who became an immortal.

Like a ball of mud that has been fabricated at will, the snake skin is constantly changing in Xie Que's eyes every moment, losing its specific image and leaving only chaos.

A string in Xie Que's mind gradually tightened, and just when it was about to collapse, the Death Trial Diagram actually appeared in Xie Que's mind again.

He immediately returned to normal and looked at the remnant slough, which still looked like snake skin.

The picture of death in my mind began to flip through page after page, and finally it stopped at the page that was still sloughed off at the bottom of the river.

Golden light shines on it, which is a golden entry that represents never-ending.

In addition to this, an entry appeared again at this time.

Aquatic: You can simulate a life of becoming an aquatic creature.

The entry has no color, but the effect it brings is equally strange.

Xie Que was also a little confused. What does this entry mean?

Simulate the life of an aquatic creature?

Just as Xie Que was thinking about this, there was a loud thundering sound outside the house. Even though the three of them were in the basement, the thunder still made their ears numb.

Ah Shui looked at Xie Que, who nodded and then the others returned to the ground.

At this moment, there was lightning and thunder outside the house, and a violent storm began to fall. The surrounding shacks were shaken by the sudden storm.

When Xie Que arrived, the sky was only a little gloomy, but there were no signs of imminent rain.

But at this time, the thick and dark clouds were almost reaching the top of the head, giving people an extremely oppressive feeling.

Heavy rain and strong winds swept across the world one after another, and many simple shacks were blown away.

On the sea not far away, countless rough waves collided continuously, and then exploded, and the splashing sea water and rainwater rushed ashore together.

"Damn it!" Gym Leader Lu cursed: "I have to go back and check out my martial arts gym."

Then he left as quickly as flying.

At this time, the entire Jinmen City was covered by the sudden dark clouds, and heavy rain fell.

Xie Que began to wonder whether this was related to the two corpses in the basement or at the bottom of the creek.

After all, according to legend, the bottom of Xiaochegou River was once the place where the Dragon King who could control wind and rain was locked.

When Xie Que saw this, he felt a sense of fear and wanted to leave right away.

But Ah Shui patted Xie Que's shoulder and pointed to the seaport not far away.

That was the place where Wuding River connected with the sea, and a huge whirlpool actually rolled up at this time.
