Chapter 890
At this time, Huang Xiaolong's ghost doll had completed evolution after devouring all the evil ghosts in this ghost house, including the Ghost King!
This object is about two feet tall, and it directly poked a big hole in the roof of the ancient house. It was as dark as iron, with a cold metallic luster. Behind it, a pair of huge bat-like wings grew. The pair of eyes emitted a red light, and the breath was breathtaking and looked like a demon!
This ghost doll has completely evolved into a killing machine, and even the ghost king will be instantly dismantled into pieces by it.
Qingqing and Xiaohong, the two monsters, were still scared when facing the ghost doll.
Cao Dabiao was completely confused and looked at Huang Xiaolong in a daze, unable to speak, but he said in his heart - 'What is his identity as the lady's boyfriend? I think he... is very... very tricky~~ I can't afford to offend, can't afford to offend... I didn't expect that there were such a capable person in the world...'
"Hehe, my ghost doll is more than several times more powerful than the one that Master Xia planned to sacrifice. In the Bermuda Devil Triangle, the guy who set up the ghost array can resist me, hahahaha..." Huang Xiaolong smiled proudly, "Okay, let's go around and see what kind of miserable injustice is there."
While talking, Huang Xiaolong put the ghost doll into the ghost tube.
At that moment, Huang Xiaolong took Shirley Bai and others through the hall and carefully inspected the ancient house.
All the evil ghosts had disappeared. Huang Xiaolong burned a few talismans to drive away evil spirits, which made all the ghost energy that had been entangled in this ancient house for a long time so that they were all destroyed.
From a spiritual perspective, ancient houses no longer have that creepy feeling.
"Hey~~ There is also a painting here." Qingqing and Xiaohong were the most active. They walked in front and suddenly stopped and shouted.
I saw a colorful painting hanging on the wall of a corridor.
This painting still has only the first half, but the second half has long been decayed.
Huang Xiaolong walked up to see that the content of the painting was still the middle-aged man wearing Chinese official uniform standing side by side with the exotic woman.
However, judging from this painting, the exotic beauty is actually about two heads taller than the middle-aged man!
"No?" Shirley said in surprise, "Why are women so much taller than men?"
Cao Dabiao smiled apologized. "Miss, this painting is incomplete. Both of them have been lost. Maybe when painting, the man sat, but this beautiful woman was standing, so it seemed that the woman was much taller than the man."
Huang Xiaolong shook his head and smiled. "The first painting we found was that men and women were as tall as women, and that painting also lacked the lower half. But based on the postures of the man and woman on the painting, I can think that women are sitting and men are standing, so the heights of the two seem to be the same. In this painting, both of them stand up, and it makes people see at a glance that women are much taller than men. This is their true height."
Huang Xiaolong stared at the colored paintings on the wall and analyzed. "This man is about 170 in terms of body proportions. If a woman is two heads taller than a man, then this woman is nearly 2 meters tall...this..."
Huang Xiaolong only found it incredible.
In ancient times, human height was generally inferior to modern times. Even if a woman was not a Chinese race, but was close to European and American race, it was difficult for her to reach a height of 2 meters at that time, right?
Not to mention that in that era, even in modern times, human genes have evolved, women with a height of 2 meters in Europe, the United States and Western countries are probably rare.
At this moment, a flash of inspiration flashed through Huang Xiaolong's mind. "Will this woman in the color painting be wrapped around the black knife, the master of the obsession?"
Huang Xiaolong has a kind of intuition - yes!
So...she kept saying that she had encountered an inhumane tragedy. Could it be that the man in the color painting persecuted her?
It seems that the two are like a couple, so, can they be killed?
"Master, there is no need to worry about this. I see that these portraits have been artistically processed, and they are even fictional." Shirley Bai. "Maybe the painter is deliberately beautifying this woman."
Before walking a few steps, another scroll of painting appeared on the wall.
This scroll is preserved in great integrity without any missing.
Moreover, this is a large painting, with a length, width and height of several meters. The painter's skills are very exquisite and depict a grand scene!
The background is a magnificent sea!
At the sea, dozens of wooden sailboats are moored! This is a fleet! A large fleet!
The largest wooden sailboat is the flagship and main ship of the entire fleet!
It is a tower ship with four floors in total, nine masts and twelve sails, majestic!
"Ah~~!" Cao Dabiao screamed in surprise, "This...this is what we...we see...those ghost ships..."
Yes, Huang Xiaolong, Shirley Bai and others also saw that they had seen the actual objects on the paintings of these ships. There were majestic tiger head reliefs on the front of the bow, solemn flying dragon reliefs or paintings on the front of the sides, phoenix paintings on the back, and a large roc with wings spreading to fly above the stern board...
Aren’t those ghost ships that suddenly appeared in the ghost fog while sailing in the Devil Triangle Sea of Bermuda?
On the shore, there was also a middle-aged man with a long sword hanging on his waist and holding the hilt of the sword in his hand. He was heroic and indescribable. This painting was very vivid. From the man's eyes, he could actually see an extremely huge ambition and a look of contempt!
Dozens of wooden sailboats were hung with flags, and some of them had the traditional Chinese character "Zheng".
"Zheng?" Huang Xiaolong's eyes suddenly lit up.
Cao Dabiao screamed. "I understand! I understand! The man in official uniform painted the painting is Zheng He! The eunuch of the Sanbao! "
"In the Ming Dynasty, the country wanted to be prosperous and strong, but could not ignore the ocean. Wealth was taken from the ocean, and danger also came from the sea. Yes, it was indeed Zheng He." Huang Xiaolong also nodded. "Then, this painting describes... the eunuch of the Three Treasures voyage to the West!"
"In other words, the mansion we are currently in on this island is...it's...it's mansion of Zheng He?" Shirley Bai was shocked. "But it is very likely that this is the Bermuda Sea..."
"Oh, it turns out it was the story of the eunuch Sanbao voyage to the West." Qingqing shook her head like an old driver. "My empress also told me the story of the eunuch Sanbao voyage to the West. Well, the story is very interesting."
Qingqing, the monster, also began to show off his knowledge and showed that although he was a monster, he was still very familiar with human history.
"Continue to look for it and see if there are any other paintings. These ancient scrolls seem to record a story." A intuition arose in Huang Xiaolong's heart - 'This story is probably true! Moreover, it is unknown in history! I'm afraid even he, the dark emperor, cannot know it!"
Everyone's interests also rose. While walking, they were looking for ancient paintings in the house.
Huang Xiaolong also walked while recalling intently - 'By the way, when I was in the underworld, I had never seen the ghost of the Three Treasures eunuch Zheng He... But I didn't care at that time either, after all, this was not a big shot...'
After walking for a while, I found several more paintings, but unfortunately, these paintings were extremely damaged, and even only a little bit of leftover material was left, so it was impossible to distinguish the contents in the painting.
Shirley Bai and Qingqing couldn't help but beat their chests and stamped their feet, screaming regret.
Fortunately, when I searched a study room, there was a complete large scroll hanging on the wall of the study room.
The background color of this painting is blue.
And it is not ordinary blue, it is a dark blue that looks like the bottom of the sea.
Bubbles, corals, and groups of fish and shrimps are swimming.
"Ah, I understand. This painting is about the underwater world." Shirley Bai said with great affirmation.
After pausing, Shirley Bai shook his head and said, "It's not right. Can ancient painters dive into the sea to paint?"
There is a building on this undersea picture. This building is very strange, not a mansion or a tall building, but a triangular building.
The triangle is made up of huge rocks. On the surface of these huge rocks, dense ancient and mysterious symbols and twisted words like tadpoles are outlined.
Although Huang Xiaolong is knowledgeable, he does not know these symbols and words.
In front of this building, there is a man and a woman.
The man is the middle-aged man who appeared in the previous paintings, namely "Zheng He". The woman is naturally the peerless beauty full of exotic style.
The two wore clothes that ancient Chinese couples wore when they got married.
Zheng He was wearing a top scholar's uniform embroidered with a kirin, while the beautiful woman was wearing a phoenix crown and a robe.
There are no shortcomings in this painting, which allows you to have a glimpse of the whole leopard.
In the painting, both of them stood up straight, and the woman was indeed two heads taller than Zheng He.
but!
"This painting! This painting is fake! It's fake!" Suddenly, Shirley Bai screamed in shock. She stretched out her trembling fingers and pointed to the legs of the foreign woman wearing a phoenix crown and a robe in the painting.
But to be precise, she has no legs.
Of course, it’s not that she is a disabled person, but that the part where she should have legs has a tail!
Yes, a fish tail! A fish tail covered with fish scales!
This fish tail is much longer than normal people's legs.
So much so that this woman is two heads taller than Zheng He!
"Impossible... This is definitely not true, under the sea... human... mermaid... This is definitely not true! No! This beautiful woman, she... she... she is not human... impossible! She is so beautiful..." Cao Dabiao was completely lost... His throat was dry, and his voice was very hoarse.
"Oh, it's interesting... it's really interesting..." Huang Xiaolong was only slightly shocked for a few seconds, and his mood was calm.
Mermaid?
What a fuck!
Huang Xiaolong has seen even some monsters and monsters! Yellow skin, hedgehog, snake, fox, and verbal insect... What a mermaid!
Qingqing and Xiaohong became even more calm. One of them was a python and the other was a fox. In the world of monsters, a woman had a human body and a fish tail on the lower body. This is not surprising.
"Oh, don't be surprised, okay? This is the fish demon!" Xiaohong said angrily. "I don't think it has completely transformed. So, there is still a piece of fish tail. If you have enough Taoism, the fish tail can also transform into human legs. This fish demon is beautiful, but it is very weak."
"You know what a bad thing." Huang Xiaolong glared at Xiaohong, "'There are mermaids outside the South China Sea, and the water lives like fish, and they do not waste the weaving. If their eyes cry, they can produce pearls.' Have you heard of this? Mermaids are beautiful creatures living in the sea half man and half fish. They are basically females, good at singing, and their singing voices are beautiful and can capture people's souls. They use their singing to deceive sailors on passing ships, causing them to fall into the reefs. It is a fatal temptation. It is said that their oil ignition point is extremely low, and they can burn for several days if they take a drop. Legend has it that there is an eternal lamp made of mermaid oil in the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang."
In Huang Xiaolong's opinion, the mermaid is not a pure fish monster, but of course, it is also a kind of monster.
"Is this the 'mermaid' in European and American myths and legends?" Shirley white cut a cross on his chest and said in a trembling voice. "God, the legend of the mermaid is true! It turns out... it turns out that it is true..."
"Well, this painting is one of the comic strips. The contents of the painting are the eunuch of the Three Treasures and a mermaid, that is, a mermaid, who gets married. Unfortunately, there are a few missing in this comic strip. We cannot know how Zheng He met the mermaid and fell in love with each other..." Huang Xiaolong said with a serious face.
"Master, do you think the content on the drawing is true?" Shirley Bai still looked incredible.
"Well, I think it's true. Intuition." Huang Xiaolong nodded solemnly. "Excellent, I want to know the final outcome too much."
"Young Master, this is really a romantic love story! Just like the love story between our snake demon clan, Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian, is so sad and so fascinating..." Qingqing looked obsessed.
Shirley Bai and Cao Dabiao looked at Qingqing with a terrifying look on their faces.
Huang Xiaolong smiled mysteriously. "I think the story between Zheng He and the mermaid must not be a romantic love story, but a tragedy. If you don't believe it, you can bet with me."
After pausing, Huang Xiaolong pointed at Zheng He in the scroll. "Please note that this is a great day for getting married, but Zheng He's eyes have a kind of sinisterness... I have to say that the artist's skills are too superb and captured Zheng He's expression. But it is also possible that Zheng He's expression is so gloomy and perverted on the day of getting married..."
