Chapter 227 The Tuo Clan (1)
Just at the same time when Pu Zixuan and Zhu Yuanliang met the three turtle clans, Chen Shuqing was lying on a simple wooden bed and shouting in a daze: "Xiaoqi, Xiaoqi! Fly away quickly! Hurry!"
"Sister Shuqing, it's okay, it's okay, don't be afraid!"
Chen Shuqing woke up from the nightmare and saw that she was lying on the bed, covered in sweat. Sun Xiaoshu next to her was wrapping her waist with vines, verbal comfort while performing treatment, and then wondered: "Xiaoshu? Where is this?"
Seeing that Chen Shuqing had recovered his mind, Sun Xiaoshu immediately stopped treatment and took back the vines. He smiled and said, "Last night, you were seriously injured by the evil people on Longtou Mountain, and then encountered a big whirlpool in the devil's waters. We fell into Poyang Lake together, and you were injured again. However, we seemed to be rescued by someone in the lake and brought here."
"Is that true? Then what about Xiaoqi and the others?" Chen Shuqing asked impatiently.
Sun Xiaoshu whispered: "I'm sorry, I don't have any news about the two brothers. I really hope that they were rescued together and placed in some other room."
"Why are you still standing there? Let's go out and find them." After saying that, Chen Shuqing sat upright and wanted to get out of bed.
Sun Xiaoshu looked at the direction of the door lock and said, "This door has been locked from outside."
"Haha, how can this kind of door lock stump me?" As he said that, Chen Shuqing walked towards the door.
Sun Xiaoshu did not show any expectations and said, "No need to be so troublesome. I have seen through the wall before. Our location should be on an isolated island."
"What? The isolated island?" Chen Shuqing listened with his ears, and then realized that there was indeed a slight sound of waves slamming the shore around him. Then he looked out from the inner window, but saw that the terrain outside the wooden house had indeed dropped rapidly from high to low, and not far away was the vast Poyang Lake.
"But, we can't wait like this, right?" Chen Shuqing looked at the dusty house, and an ominous premonition arose.
Sun Xiaoshu said, "Sister Shuqing, don't be anxious. Those who rescued us should not be bad people. Earlier, an old man came to see you and saw that you were still in a coma, so he left and said he would come over in a while. We might as well wait a little longer."
Chen Shuqing had no choice but to wait for another cup of tea with Sun Xiaoshu. At a certain moment, outside the wooden house, a few people suddenly heard shouting from far to near.
An angry aunt voice came: "Hmph, useless things, ask you to bring the purifier back. It would be fine if you can't do a good job. She actually brought two monsters back. You really gave me a 'surprise'!"
Then, there was an old man's voice: "Oh, madam, so anxiously, there are so many tyrants fighting for us. It's hard for us to bring back two. Besides, the fox demon has a breath of purifying power. How do I know that she is actually a monster?"
Chen Shuqing whispered to Sun Xiaoshu: "What he said should be the fragment of "Huanyue Jue" on me? It seems that they only saved the two of us, while Xiaoqi and Zhu Yuanliang were taken away by the 'Cross' they said."
Outside the door, another young man's voice came: "Grandma, please calm down. Last night, I also participated in the rescue. At that time, when the ship sank, these two monsters fell into the waters of our side, and the two happened to fall to the side of the turtle clan. We did try our best..."
The aunt said in a relentless voice: "Hmph, I want to see where you have brought back. If it is useless, throw them into the lake. I don't want to waste precious food to support them."
Sun Xiaoshu grinned: "This old woman is too cruel, right?"
As he was speaking, the door opened from the inside out with a "bang", and then a chubby aunt took the lead in entering the door with a proud look, followed by a trembling old man and a handsome young man. Except for the three of them carrying strange scale armor on their backs, they looked exactly the same as ordinary humans.
Just as the aunt's eyes touched Chen Shuqing and Sun Xiaoshu, the originally fierce expression suddenly softened, and then quickly turned anger into joy, and said happily: "Oh my god, what a beautiful wife! What a cute child! Old guy, you really gave me a 'surprise'!"
The thin old man immediately felt relieved and said, "So, madam, do you like them?"
The conversation between the two was really puzzling, and the change in the aunt's attitude made the monk confused. Chen Shuqing frowned and said, "My wife? What does it mean?"
The aunt did not answer, and stretched out her hand with glory. The originally dilapidated cottage then became as comfortable and bright as a new house. There was a big red "囍" character on the wall, which was as festive and unique as a wedding room.
With just a slight approach, the layout of the entire room was completely changed. It seems that this aunt has a strong ability to change, and from the fact that she was not afraid of danger when she started, she was full of confidence in her demonic power.
However, Chen Shuqing was not a good-looking lamp. Seeing the other party's strange behavior, he immediately said angrily: "Hey! Who are you? What do you want to do to us?"
The aunt smiled and greeted, "Don't be anxious, sit down, sit down."
After Chen Shuqing and Sun Xiaoshu sat on the bed, the aunt introduced: "This is Zhupao Mountain, Yuyong Island, southern Poyang Lake. Last night, you sank a ship in the devil's waters. It was our tribe who rescued you and brought you here. We are the turtle clan living in Poyang Lake. This old man is called Peiruo, and he is the nominal elder of our turtle clan."
Peiruo stumbled carefully: "In name?"
The aunt glared at Peiruo viciously: "Is there any problem?"
"No! No! Madam, you have the final say." Pei Ruo underestimated and stopped talking.
The aunt continued, "I am his wife, named Marsha. This young man is my favorite child, called Xilang." Then, he pointed to Chen Shuqing and said to Xilang: "Come on, Xilang, say hello to your future wife. And this child, it's better to be a baby boy at the wedding!"
Xilang suddenly blushed, and said with displeasure in embarrassment: "Grandma, you are starting to make random couples again!"
Chen Shuqing also said with a brow, "What are these with what?"
Marsha didn't mind the rebound of the two, and continued to say to Xilang: "I've said a long time ago that our turtle tribes will change those old xenophobic problems. Although they are fox tribes, once our "uninterrupted scale armor" is forged, they can also live at the bottom of the lake, which will not affect your future life at all." Then, she said to Chen Shuqing: "Okay, girl, I don't expect you to agree immediately. Anyway, we have to get along well for a while, so we can slowly get to know each other and deepen our understanding. I believe that you will definitely fall in love with our turtle tribe."
"What? I'll spend some time with you?" Chen Shuqing said anxiously, "Madam Marsha, I'm not intimidated. We both have important things, especially those two companions, who are now missing. If they are taken away by someone else, I hope the three of you will give me some clues. I have to meet them."
Marsha asked slowly, "Haha, what do you call a girl?"
"My name is Chen Shuqing, his name is Sun Xiaoshu. The two scattered companions, one is Pu Zixuan and the other is Zhu Yuanliang. I have to go find them quickly."
Marsha shook her head and said with a look of indifference: "If Miss Shuqing had this idea, I advise you to give up earlier. Let me tell you the truth. The one who took them away was our mortal enemy, the Crown clan, and those tycoons were all sinister and vicious people. If your companions fell into their hands, it would be a lot of danger. If you don't believe it, you can try it out if you can sense the purifying power of your companion."
Chen Shuqing was about to try, but Sun Xiaoshu reminded: "No need to try it. As long as I am next to me, Sister Shuqing will not be able to sense any breath outside. However, I have tried it. Brother Pu's breath... is indeed... I can't find it."
"What?" Chen Shuqing asked unwillingly, "Maybe he is under the lake, his breath is isolated?"
Marsha sighed, “How could they humans survive underwater?”
"Didn't you just say that you are forging a kind of scale armor that allows humans to live in the water? Maybe the turtle tribes have such things too?"
Marsha sneered: "I'm sorry, girl, that's the design of our turtle tribe. The magic weapon they turtle tribe wants to develop is a turtle shell that can only be used for humans to walk on the water, but not for humans to survive underwater."
"But, but..." Chen Shuqing certainly couldn't imagine that Pu Zixuan's purification power had been sealed, and he was helpless and didn't know what to say.
Marsha sighed, walked to Chen Shuqing, touched her head and comforted her: "Okay, girl, life is not as good as it is. You should be glad that we saved you. Because you can't imagine how vicious those turtles are." After saying that, she said to Peiruo: "Show her your legs."
Pei Ruo rolled up his trouser legs and tapped his legs with his hands, making a crisp sound of "dong" and "dong".
Sun Xiaoshu said in surprise: "Elder, what's going on with your legs?"
Peiruo waved his hand and said, "It's up to the lady to explain everything."
Marsha gritted her teeth and said, "This is the good thing the turtle tribes do. They took the lead in breaking the agreement between our two tribes to live in peace, constantly crossing the devil's waters, and coming to our territory for food. That's fine, our prime minister can hold a boat in his stomach and give in to them. And since last year, a particularly vicious turtle tribe has cast a spell on our tribe. The person who gets hit will start to harden from his feet. After 9981, if the hardening reaches his head, the person will die!"
Finally, Peiruo couldn't help but answer and took the initiative to answer: "Just last month, when I was parading in the lake, I was also hit by such a murder. This is the declaration of war by those turtles on our turtle tribe. Since that's the case, we will use our strength to tell them that the turtle tribes do not like war, but when the war comes, we will never retreat!"
