Desperate Night.

Chapter 278 Question 278

People are fragile?
Yu Hong grasped the key point sharply. Does this mean that the people here are very fragile even if they practice?
"Can't Taoist magic arrays strengthen the body?" He continued to ask without changing his expression.

"Yes, but the best ways for people to strengthen their bodies are all written in fighting schools. The so-called Taoism, formations, and so on are just our means of using our own body combined with external objects to exert targeted force to restrain the resentment. This is an application, not a method of training and strengthening oneself." Lao Yang explained.

"In other words, in addition to learning Taoism, we also need to learn fighting techniques?" Yu Hongdao said.

"Of course. There are many methods in fighting martial arts to cultivate and temper the spirit. You can use them if you study hard." Old Yang nodded.

"Then, after learning Taoist magic and formations, can you defeat a powerful martial artist?" Yu Hong clearly felt the key.

As soon as these words came out, Lao Yang looked at him as if he was a fool.

"nonsense!"

"What?" Yu Hong blinked.

"Of course I can't beat him." Old Yang was speechless. "A person's energy is limited. If he spends half of his energy and time training his fighting ability, and then goes against a martial artist who has trained himself wholeheartedly, he is simply courting death."

"." Yu Hong now understood what Lao Yang's so-called Taoist magic was.

The three of them returned all the way back to the seaside of the yacht.

What they saw were Song Siyu and the other two who looked depressed.

"What's going on?" Wei Chengjun stepped forward and asked first. He had been listening to Yu Hong and the other man talking about some random stuff the whole time and was not interested at all.

"The people on the yacht just won't answer the phone!" Gao Wen's hair was soaked with sweat and stuck to his temples.

"We were just planning to swim over to the boat and take a look."

"I suggest you don't do this." Old Yang looked at the yacht from afar, smelled the sea breeze, counted on his fingers, and his expression became serious. "There's no one on the boat."

no one? ?
Several people looked carefully towards the yacht, and sure enough, after watching for a long time, they did not see anyone walking on it.

"Abia, Aliang and the others are all on the boat?" Gao Wen's face turned pale.

Old Yang shook his head and said nothing, but turned and walked towards the island.

The others also felt something was wrong at this time.

If the yacht can't go back, doesn't that mean they can't leave the island?
"Don't panic. According to our investigation before coming here, there will be a coast guard ship patrolling this sea area tomorrow. We can then ask for help." Song Siyu said in a deep voice.

Hearing the coast guard ship, everyone calmed down. Gao Wen wanted to swim onto the ship, but was persuaded by Lao Yang.

The group returned to their previous residence. There was a problem with the yacht. Song Siyu also felt something was wrong and was in no mood to continue recording the video.

The four of them got together and looked for Qi Siyan again, but still didn't see her. Only then did they confirm that Qi Siyan was really missing.

Night time.

Yu Hong walked out of the room where he was resting and looked at the sky outside.

'The next day, it was the first time I stayed two days in a place where the black ship took me.'

Inexplicably, he felt that the mark of the black ship in his mind seemed to convey a faint sense of anxiety.

It was as if the black ship itself had simple instincts.

He turned around and saw Gao Wen and Lao Yang whispering about something.

Soon the two men began to take a roll of red thread and wrap it around the house where they lived.

Moreover, Lao Yang found a brush from somewhere, dipped it in some unknown black ink, and drew a huge circular pattern on the ground around the house. He also added various complex-looking words and symbols to the pattern.

Yu Hong saw Song Siyu and others in the room looking at Lao Yang busying around with strange expressions, and they didn't help.

Finally, Lao Yang completely surrounded the entire house with red line. The red line was hung in the air, forming a barrier that blocked anyone from entering or leaving.

"Tonight, I need to confirm the safety and stability of other places. You stay here. Remember, starting from twelve o'clock in the evening, no one should leave the area marked by this red circle. This red circle is used to hide your breath. Once someone goes out and is discovered, this circle will lose its effectiveness. Remember, remember!" Lao Yang warned.

"Don't worry, Mr. Yang! We will definitely abide by it! In return for your help this time, I will give you two million when I get out!" Gao Wen nodded seriously.

Old Yang twitched the corner of his mouth but did not refuse. Although he was a Taoist master, masters also needed money.

Yu Hong saw this scene not far away and understood that money should be of great help to people like Lao Yang.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken the initiative to tinker with it for so long just for Gao Wen's request.

Thinking of this, he turned his gaze and looked at the island again.

The source of the erosion of the black ship has not been found yet, but he has been here for nearly two days.

This is also a test.

He said nothing and watched Lao Yang leave, leaving the rest of the people huddled in the room blocked by the formation.

Using the conversation as an excuse to take a break, he found a room to go into and was also given an extra spare tent.

Lying in the yellow tent, Yu Hong waited quietly.

I came to this small island inexplicably, met this group of living people, joined them strangely, and came into contact with a special and larger world.

This made him feel somewhat unreal.

But apart from the unreality, there is more joy.

Waiting for time to pass.

As the sky darkened, the sound of the waves outside gradually became fainter.

Yu Hong lay in the tent, waiting for the arrival of twelve o'clock at night.

At this moment, the mark of the black ship in his mind began to flicker continuously, emitting an unstable and inexplicable aura.

"Sure enough. My hunch was right." He raised his hand and saw his arm began to flicker and slowly became transparent. "The black ship has the ability to find a place of life, but this ability also has its limits. It is likely that it will not stay in the outside world for long. Now it seems that it cannot stay for more than two days."

Yu Hong sat cross-legged quietly, waiting for changes to occur around him.

Soon, in a few minutes.

His eyes suddenly went dark.

When the light reappeared, I was already sitting on the deck of the black ship, as if I had been sitting there from the beginning.

All around was the sound of the sea water hitting the hull, and a thick black fog was like a black wall, surrounding the black ship tightly.

"Forced to return? Or, I never left from the beginning?" Yu Hong pondered this question.

He thinks it's the former.

Standing up, he walked to the side of the ship and saw Huangsong Island gradually moving away and disappearing into the black fog.

Amid the creaking sound of the deck, he stared at the island, watching it gradually disappear and move away.

'A whole new world? Or... just a glimpse of a chance adventure?'

He wasn't sure.

Soon, the ocean around the black ship turned into a black river, and the fog in front dissipated, revealing the wooden bridge pier of the Black Wind Camp.

Bang.

The boat hit the dock piles and stopped.

Suddenly, an invisible breath climbed up from the wooden bridge pier, as if injecting something into the black ship.

Yu Hong judged that it might be to replenish its strength.

He jumped off the boat and three dragon lizards came down with something.

After a circle, Yu Hong returned to the front of the camp and looked at the detector: -100.412.
It's minus 100 degrees.
He looked at the dragon lizards whose movements were obviously becoming slower, and knew that this temperature was close to the limit that the dragon lizards could tolerate.

This means that the dragon lizards can no longer go out and move around freely. Otherwise, if the temperature drops further, they will all be frozen outside.

After returning to the cave to eat and drink water, Yu Hong simply sat cross-legged in the camp to practice, while waiting for the black ship.

The black ship seemed to be performing a recharging operation. It was docked at the wooden bridge pier, motionless, allowing the mysterious aura to continue to spread and climb over it. It did not respond for a long time.

"There is a question. If we solve the source of the impact on Huangsong Island, will I be able to go there next time?" Yu Hong thought about this question.

Amidst the white snowflakes, he weighed the possible consequences of various decisions in his mind.

Taiyuan Zhengfa continuously absorbed the Zeus God's light, while Benlei Leg Technique continuously absorbed the red value radiation and transformed it into internal energy. The two sides were clearly divided.

The internal energy finally merged with the light of the god of the universe, forming a unique ball of blue internal energy in Hong's body.

As time went by, the black ship's energy recovery was still not complete.

"I hope that when I finish charging here, those people over there can hold on."

'In addition, in order to prevent the black ships from heading to the next destination after solving the source over there, I cannot completely solve the source of Huangsong Island. I have to leave some roots so that I can continue to reach there later.'

Yu Hong made up his mind.

Ponderosa Island.

At night, the sea breeze howled, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and thunder rumbled.

In an abandoned two-story shop by the sea.

Gao Wensong whispered to the four of them to return to their own rooms and sleep in the tent to rest.

rumble
There was thunder outside.

Zhao Sisi turned on the rechargeable night light in the tent, and the warm yellow light illuminated the small tent.

She took off her coat and pants, drank some water, and prepared to get into her sleeping bag to rest.

Suddenly she touched her left wrist.

"Wait! Where's my bracelet?"

Zhao Sisi was stunned. She had saved up a lot of money to buy a gold bracelet a while ago. It was still there on her way back, but now it was gone.

"Could it have fallen on Xiaoyu's side?" She quickly stood up and unzipped the tent.

Outside was a dirty, dark bedroom covered with cobwebs.

There was a cracked photo of a couple hanging on the wall. It was a pretty and cute girl with twin ponytails, hugging a fat boy with glasses, who was about ten years old.

The girl had a bright and happy smile, and the chubby boy was shy and cute. He wanted to put his arm around the girl's shoulders, but because he was too short, he could only put his arm behind her back.

The two people are one tall and one short, and the contrast is so strong that people remember this photo immediately.

"Could this house be the home of that fat man with a mental illness?" Zhao Sisi frowned. Without thinking too much, she looked out the window. The street outside was dark, and the sea breeze made the weeds on the ground sway and tilt.

These weeds growing between the stone slabs can be seen everywhere, and when they are blown by the wind, they make a rustling sound.

And as she looked out, below the window she couldn't see.

A fat little boy covered in dust and dirt was squatting by the wall, head lowered, fiddling with something with his hands.

The little fat boy was sitting just below the windowsill, and he couldn't see anything unless he stuck his head out of the window.

He was facing the wall, and the exposed skin on his neck and the sides of his face was as pale as lime.
