Chapter 98

The sea water is flowing through the ears, and the dull and silent sound isolates the bottom of the sea into a separate world.

Baiju had already swam around the base of Turtle Island, and finally stood at the place where he first went into the sea, thinking about it and preparing to continue diving to explore.

The body of the ancient mythical beast is extremely huge. What is exposed on Turtle Island is only a small part of the grotesque shape. It is not the entire skeleton. It is just a mountain range created after the Black Turtle transformed into an island. The real skeleton is buried deep. Under the island, a considerable portion is even submerged in gravel.

The first thing Bai Ju found was a rib. Going down the bone was where the bones should be.

This seabed rock formation is buried quite deep, and the sandy bottom mud between the skeletons and the sea water is so thick that it may have filled up a small trench. The bottom mud is fine and heavy, and if you want to dig it out to peek at the bones underneath, The operation is still very difficult.

Looking at the sea above, Bai Ju estimated that his movement would not be too big, so he reached out and patted the ribs where he had opened the window before, opened his mouth, and said silently: "Excuse me."

Immediately, he clasped his fingers together and exerted force, a storm-like mud was stirred up on the bottom of the sea. The deep hole under the ribs was suddenly exposed, and countless quicksands rushed down next to it, which was bound to quickly cover up the existence of the hole. .

With his eyes slightly lowered, Bai Ju stared at the direction of the quicksand without blinking and breathed a sigh of relief.

He read it correctly. There was an inconspicuous arch under the ribs. Judging from the arc, the space underneath was not small, and there were also traces of a special substance covering it, which could avoid normal sight, sound waves and other explorations.

Just have space.

No matter what is underneath, at least the power center of Turtle Island will be able to find clues from it.

Bai Ju hugged the ribs that he had pulled up with his arms. With another exertion, the meridians on the back of his hands swelled, and the muscle lines on his arms were full of strength. He pulled out the half-lifted ribs and slowly Xuan was placed on the mud next to him, lying on his side.

Following Baiju's movements, some fine bubbles emerged from the gaps between the sand and stone under the ribs; many seaweeds were uprooted and swayed with the current.

The sea water here was very calm. Baiju followed the direction of the seaweed movement for a while, and then saw it sinking to the seabed not far away and not drifting further.

Looking back, Bai Ju moved his fingers, and the translucent shirt he was wearing was quickly taken back into his body. The jeans on his long legs also changed into the leather pants style he was accustomed to; he raised his hand to tuck his hair. , Bai Ju tied it up, tied her long hair into a ponytail, and then tied it into a bun. She casually conjured up a silver hairpin and tidied it up neatly.

He also pointed out that after casting a spell, the heavy mud was pushed open by an invisible force, and a passage wide for two people was forcibly opened. Bai Ju drilled into the passage, and then waved his hand to cover the entrance of the cave with a layer of sand. , and then continue to go deeper.

There was no light in the passage under the sea, so Bai Ju had no choice but to throw away two balls of faint blue flames, which were suspended in the water and glowed quietly, reflecting the scattered shells and fish bones in the surrounding mud.

The end of the rib is buried about twenty meters deep.

Bai Ju dug the passage to the bottom without much effort. Squatting down, he rubbed his palms on the hard curved surface under his feet, revealing the light black translucent shell underneath.

Two groups of blue and faint flames were summoned by Bai Ju and came close to the shell, reflecting the hidden scene inside; several thick pillars extended down, creating a quite large space under the shell.

The area that the flames can illuminate is limited, but Bai Ju's eyes are bright and he can roughly tell that the place where he is now is a dome.

This is a palace.

Some of the pillars have collapsed in half and are not really connected to the dome; and the curvature and shape of the entire top are inconsistent with the layout of the pillars. This layer of light black dome is probably a replacement that was covered later.

Turning his head and putting his ears against the dome, Bai Ju couldn't help but smile slightly as he held his breath for a moment. The sound transmission effect between the dome and the water flow is much better than that of the air. There is the sound of heart beating inside, which is not particularly gentle and regular, but rather vigilant and frightened.

Turning his palm over, Bai Ju clasped his fingers on the translucent dome and said, "Excuse me, I'll take you out."

The heartbeat suddenly paused, and then jumped faster, even faster than a turtle.

"I know you have a way to let me in." Bai Ju paused and licked the tips of his teeth, "I also have a way to break this dome."

No movement.

Bai Ju raised his eyebrows: "This shell is quite filling. I'm very hungry and want to eat it."

My heartbeat instantly went crazy.

Bai Ju rolled his eyes. He was really a little kid. He had never seen much of the world and had no scheming skills. He would react to the slightest deceit and his thoughts were easy to guess.

He ate so much fish a few days ago that he is not hungry yet, but the shell outside is a genuine basalt egg shell. I don't know why it was not eaten by the cub, but turned into this dome. Locked to the bottom of the sea.

Bai Ju was always patient with cute cubs, so he simply sat cross-legged on the dome, stroking the smooth shell surface with his fingers, and his voice slowed down a little: "Be good, there are bone marrow left by your parents outside."

The little cub that had been silent for a long time now started to stir. The thin neighing sound was not like human speech, and the meaning conveyed was not very clear. Bai Ju tilted his head and listened to the heartbeat, but there was no communication barrier.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?"

Bai Ju lowered his eyes

: "My name is Bai Ju, I'm just a wild white dog... The island outside will soon encounter some trouble. I came to you to borrow some central power to scare the devil."

"Really?" A thin child's voice sounded hesitantly, "...don't you want something else?"

Bai Ju was quite honest and didn't intend to lie to this little guy, so he said: "It's true, but if possible, I also hope to absorb some of the power here. My partner has a bump in his life, and I have to help him I got through it, but I’m not strong enough now.”

The little guy was embarrassed and fell silent again.

Bai Ju didn't let the cub think blindly, and took the initiative to ask the question: "What about you? How long have you been here, why haven't you absorbed all the eggshells?"

The little boy hesitated for a while, then slowly said: "...I don't know. Although the energy here has the same source as mine, I can't eat it."

"I seem to look different from my parents."

Bai Ju: "..." Can there be Xuanwu that is incompatible with Xuanwu's origin?

A trace of doubt flashed through his heart, and Bai Ju clicked the button on the dome: "Come up here and let me take a look at you. Don't worry, I won't break the shell."

There was a small sound under the dome.

The faint blue firelight fell through the translucent shell, and Bai Ju could see some tiny shimmers passing through, which looked like reptile scales.

After a while, a thin snake tail appeared at the edge of Bai Ju's field of vision. In another flash, the little guy swam directly below Bai Ju's location.

Bai Ju fell into silence as he looked at the turtle and snake showing his full face.

This little guy is white, only the size of a medium-sized dog, and the diameter of the tortoise shell is no more than two feet.

The four claws are slender and flexible, similar to dragon claws, not thick. They stick out from the side of the tortoise shell. Thin scales cover the undulating muscles. The snake's tail is slender, with a raised hard carapace at the spine. As the tail swings, It moves, revealing the sharp edges of the connection between the pieces; the neck is a snake's neck, curved into an elegant S shape like a swan, the head is between a turtle and a snake, and a pair of yellow pupils are like transparent amber.

It is very different from Xuanwu in the usual sense.

The word "Xuan" in the name of the mythical beast Xuanwu means black; and the word "武" is also an affirmation of the natural fighting power of the mythical beast Xuanwu. As the name suggests, Xuanwu is a black god of war.

This tortoise-snake-like mythical beast is born huge, and its whole body is black. The tortoise shell is pitch black, and the snake scales are also pitch black. The appearance of the individuals is quite different. Some turtles and snakes have separate bodies, some have turtle bodies and snake necks, and their pupils are The colors and shapes are also different...but the white Xuanwu is destined not to be one of these Xuanwu.

This kind of example has not happened before. Xuanwu governs water, and water governs yin, and Xuanshui is the ultimate yin existence; but although the white Xuanwu still dominates water, its attribute is yang. From this point of view, it is no wonder that this little guy is obviously a mythical beast in Zhenbei , but will hatch in the southeast sea of ​​the main fire - Suzaku's territory.

If this guy had been alive in ancient times, he would have been sent to the Golden Dragon Pond to be raised.

The white Xuanwu is Zhiyang, small in size, with claws like a golden dragon, and it collects money. It is very loved by the dragon tribe, and is often regarded as a mascot baby by the dragon tribe... On the contrary, Xuanwu like this is no longer a natural god of war, but a natural god of war. It has become a kind of auspicious beast, and will become a natural fighting scum because it cannot absorb the power left to them by their parents.

Bai Ju's expression was a little complicated.

The Demon Management Bureau needs an auspicious beast to control the situation. This little Xuanwu is indeed an auspicious beast, but it can't control the situation. It can only be a mascot to attract wealth...and this guy leaves the boss alone. The inheritance cannot be absorbed, and now it is very difficult to find other training resources. I am afraid that in the future, I will not be able to break through the boundaries and grow into what a divine beast should be.

With a hiss, Bai Ju thought about the resources in his hand and said painfully: "...I have some of Zhiyang's treasures here, and I can give you...a small part."

Xiao Xuanwu looked at Bai Ju with round eyes and spat out the snake letter: "Really? You're not lying to me?"

Bai Ju nodded: "In exchange, I hope to use some of the power here. I won't use much, only what I need...the rest is still yours."

Little Xuanwu blinked, paddling in the water with his four paws, tilting his head and thinking: "You are a white dog, how can you have such a thing as the Sun?"

Bai Ju touched the non-existent trouser pocket and thought about his small warehouse: "...My father is a black dog, and I still have his blood."

When his parents first died, Bai Ju collected a large pool. Later, eight out of ten | nine out of ten were used up for exorcism, and now there are only about a hundred jars left, although they are not very necessary for him. , but after all, it can be regarded as a thought left to him by his father.

After all, little Xuanwu had not seen the world since he was born. He was so stupid. When he heard that Bai Ju had black dog blood, he didn't even confirm how much he could give it, so he nodded and made the deal: "Okay, then you give me the blood. I'll give you the bone marrow and eggshells."

"The central power of this island comes from my eggshells. Don't eat them all, but leave some for the island. But as compensation, you must be responsible for finding a place for me to live and protect me for five hundred years."

Five hundred years is an infancy period for a mythical beast. Little Xuanwu didn't have much other knowledge, so he could only find this one requirement that was most suitable for it; after passing through its infancy, no matter how useless it was, it wouldn't still be a scumbag.

Bai Ju touched his chin, but did not agree at all, and said: "I originally planned to find a river dragon king later. I am kind to him. I will hand you over to the river dragon king when the time comes. Discuss with him what you need, okay? ?”

Xiao Xuanwu raised his neck when he heard the word dragon, and nodded eagerly when he heard this: "It turns out that there are still dragons in the world today, then

I was relieved and the deal was done. "

The dragon clan is naturally close to Bai Xuanwu. As soon as the little guy heard that there was a dragon that could take him in, he basically saw the scene where he would have no worries about food and clothing in the future, and his initial wariness was immediately eliminated.

"Stay back a little, I'll come out right now." Little Xuanwu flicked his tail, and the pink snake spit out his tongue and hissed with pleasure.
