on deck.
Wu Chuan looked at the huge jellyfish in front of him with a look of shock on his face.
"This... this is Aurora Jellyfish!?"
He has been at sea all year round and has a good understanding of sea beasts. Although he has never seen Aurora Jellyfish before, he still recognized Aurora Jellyfish's identity at a glance due to its rather special appearance and body.
He looked at Lin Sheng on the side with some disbelief.
If he hadn't watched Lin Sheng bring this big guy from the sea with his own eyes, he would never have believed that it was Lin Sheng's handiwork.
He knew what Lin Sheng was looking for on this trip to sea, and now it seemed that it was obviously for Aurora Jellyfish.
High-level Spirit Beast level sea beast, and Aurora Jellyfish. Although high-level Spirit Beast is not very aggressive, it is very good at hiding, so it is extremely difficult to capture.
Let's talk about the Bone Tempering warrior. Even a Divine Form level master may not be able to capture him, but the opponent just did it.
Wu Chuan swallowed his saliva and looked at Lin Sheng with subconscious respect.
Although his previous attitude towards Lin Sheng was respectful, it was more because of his status and background.
But this time it was because of the strength he showed.
He had already understood that Lin Sheng, who seemed to have not reached Bone Transformation realm in cultivation in front of him, was probably much stronger than he had expected.
At this time, Little Black also landed on the ship with Nong Yu.
Nong Yu looked at Aurora Jellyfish in front of him. Seeing his broken body, it was not difficult to imagine what kind of attacks he had suffered before.
"How much is this Aurora Jellyfish worth?"
Lin Sheng's eyes fell on Nong Yu and he asked calmly.
Compared with Nightglow Jellyfish King, the value of Aurora Jellyfish is undoubtedly higher.
And its size was not as big as Nightglow Jellyfish King, so he simply brought it back in its entirety.
"This... Aurora Jellyfish is of high value, especially for medicinal purposes and for making some special treasures. Although the damage is somewhat serious, the price may be discounted, but from what I can see, this Aurora Jellyfish should be able to be sold for around five hundred thousand taels of silver."
"Fifty thousand taels?"
Hearing this Lin Sheng, although he had already expected it, was still a little shocked.
At this time, Wu Chuan on the side also spoke.
"Master, if you want to sell it, Mr. Wu can dispose of it for you. I guarantee it will not be less than 500,000 taels of silver."
"Okay, then you will handle this matter."
Lin Sheng nodded, originally he had this idea.
"I've been out for a few days. Get ready to go back. Don't wait too long."
"Okay, I'll make arrangements right now."
Wu Chuan nodded quickly in response, he had long wanted to go back.
At this moment, when I heard Lin Sheng speak, I immediately ordered the sailors to turn around and prepare to return.
Although the heavy rain in the sky has not completely stopped at this time, it has eased a lot.
The waves on the sea were also much smaller, and soon the merchant ship slowly sailed back the way it came.
However, not far after sailing out, a large ship appeared on the distant sea under the night sky.
This large ship was much larger than the small merchant ship at their feet. Although it was not a large merchant ship, it was still considered a large ship among medium-sized merchant ships.
At this moment, the big ship was speeding towards the Near Sea from Open Ocean Region, and the direction was quite close to where they were.
The speed of medium-sized merchant ships is undoubtedly much faster than that of small merchant ships, and the distance between them is constantly getting closer, until they are noticed by the crew on the deck.
"There is a ship, there is a ship approaching..."
The crew's shouts rang out, and Wu Chuan immediately went out to check.
In the cabin, Lin Sheng and Nong Yu are having a meal.
Naturally, the movement outside can be heard clearly.
"Is there a boat?"
Lin Sheng picked up a glass of fruit wine, drank it all in one gulp, and spoke lightly.
"It should be that we encountered other merchant ships. This situation is quite common."
Nong Yu responded softly from the side.
"Is there anyone like Pirates tonight?"
Lin Sheng seemed to remember something and spoke again.
After all, there are many merchant ships on the Eastern Sea, which should breed groups like Pirates.
"Of course this exists, but most of them are unscrupulous Xiao Hai thieves who can only rob some small caravans and basically cannot survive in Open Ocean Region. They will be wiped out soon. However, there are still several very powerful Pirates groups in the ocean, and the most famous one is the Pirates named Blue Skull."
After hearing Lin Sheng's question, Nong Yu immediately introduced him.
"This Blue Skull Pirates has hundreds of people. Three of the leaders are all masters of Divine Form realm. Especially the big leader Blue Skull is a master of late Divine Form stage. It is said that he has entered the realm of Divine Form Eighth Transformation 20 years ago."
"Divine Form Eighth Transformation..."
Lin Sheng was a little surprised to hear this.
He didn't expect that there were just a group of Pirates, but there were such masters.
Divine Form Eighth Transformation is a top-notch master in any place.
You must know that in Lin'an and Tiannan Prefecture back then, although there were Divine Form Martial Artist, they were only in the early and middle stages of Divine Form, and there were very few warriors from late Divine Form stage.
Divine Form Martial Artist's strength has improved significantly with each change. Late Divine Form stage Martial Artist is considered a rare master in the entire Great Yan.
"Yes, this blue cave Pirates has been causing trouble in the Eastern Sea for decades. It is said that its base camp is on a Small Island in Open Ocean Region. It is extremely secretive, and its robbery targets are basically They are all medium and large caravans, and they never attack Imperial Court ships, so Imperial Court just turns a blind eye. Speaking of which, one of our Tianhai Sect fleets was robbed by them, and the losses were considerable."
As if remembering something, Nong Yu sighed.
Lin Sheng nodded and was about to say something else.
Rapid footsteps suddenly sounded outside, followed by Wu Chuan's somewhat anxious voice.
"Sir, something is wrong..."
On the deck, Wu Chuan and several sailors looked at the approaching merchant ship with a slightly uneasy look on their faces.
In front of them are Lin Sheng and Nong Yu.
Lin Sheng narrowed his eyes and frowned slightly as he looked at the medium-sized merchant ship shuttled through the waves.
At this time, the medium-sized merchant ship in sight was less than three miles away from the ship at his feet.
With his eyesight, he could clearly see the scene on the ship even if it was dark.
The medium-sized merchant ship was full of sails because it was traveling very fast.
But the strange thing is that there is not a single figure on the deck.
In such bad weather, this situation seems extremely abnormal.
After all, even if the sea wind is fierce, it is impossible to achieve such speed without sailors.
Obviously Wu Chuan also discovered this, so he felt uneasy.
Eastern Sea is a vast area, and many places are deserted and inaccessible. At the same time, there are also many strange legends passed down.
After all, in the eyes of many people, boundless Sea Region like Eastern Sea is extremely mysterious.
As the ship got closer and closer to them, a sailor behind them couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Ghost Ship... is Ghost Ship..."
"Shut up!"
As soon as he exclaimed, Wu Chuan immediately cursed, threw him out, and slapped the sailor to the ground.
"If you dare to talk nonsense again, don't blame me for being rude."
He shouted in a deep voice. Although his tone was quite solemn, a deep sense of uneasiness could still be seen in his eyes. Obviously, he was far from as calm as he seemed on the surface.
"Ghost Ship?"
Lin Sheng glanced at Wu Chuan lightly.
Nong Yu on the side took a few steps closer and explained.
"Ghost Ship is a legend on the Eastern Sea. It is an unmanned ancient ship that will appear during heavy rains. Anyone who sees Ghost Ship will have their ship destroyed... It is just a legend and cannot be true."
Hearing this, Lin Sheng smiled, looked at the big ship, and shook his head slightly.
"It really can't be true. This ship shouldn't be a so-called ancient ship, right?"
Hearing this, Nong Yu and Wu Chuan were startled, but they quickly reacted.
Yes, although the ship that appeared in sight at this moment is a bit old, it is definitely not an ancient ship, and it cannot be connected with the rumored Ghost Ship at all.
"It's just that there are no sailors. Why is this ship so fast?"
After thinking about this, Wu Chuan obviously relaxed a lot, but soon frowned again and spoke in confusion.
Nong Yu also couldn't figure it out. He just looked at the big ship and frowned.
"If you want to know why, it's simple."
Lin Sheng had a sneer on his face.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and the next moment he jumped up from the deck.
The figure shot towards the ship like a cannonball.
He doesn't believe in the so-called Ghost Ship, the tricks of pretending to be gods and ghosts, which are just people's excuses for their own weakness.
"Master!!"
Seeing Lin Sheng's movements, Nong Yu and Wu Chuan couldn't help but exclaimed.
Nong Yu just paused for a moment, then jumped out from the deck and followed Lin Sheng.
Gua——
Little Black standing on the top of the mast let out a strange cry, fluttered its wings and rushed towards it, catching Nong Yu and heading towards the big ship.
Wu Chuan showed hesitation on his face, but finally gritted his teeth and ordered.
"Turn around, follow up and take a look!!"
Although several sailors were a little frightened, they still followed the instructions and began to turn the ship's bow.
While the ship was slowly mobilizing here, Lin Sheng had already crossed a thousand meters distance and stood firmly on top of the medium-sized merchant ship.
He glanced around. There was indeed no one on the deck, but there were signs of many people's activities on it.
Lin Sheng thought, and Heightened Perception Strange Beast entered his body. He twitched his nose and sniffed lightly.
"Is there someone!?"
He clearly smelled someone's scent, which seemed to be in the cabin.
Gua...
At this time, Little Black had already fallen down from the sky with Nong Yu.
"Son."
"Yes." Lin Sheng nodded slightly. He was not surprised that Nong Yu came over. After noticing Nong Yu's movements, he gave the order to Little Black to bring him here.
"Hey! This is Red Sea Merchant Association's ship."
As soon as it landed, Nong Yu let out a light sigh. His eyes fell on the red corrugated pattern on the side of the mast, and he said with some surprise.
"You know?"
Lin Sheng also noticed the pattern and looked sideways.
"Well, this is the symbol of the Red Sea Merchant Association. Red Sea Merchant Association is a medium and large force from East Sea Prefecture. It is stronger than me, Tianhai Sect. We have had some cooperation before."
Nong Yu nodded and said, but soon frowned and said in confusion.
"I heard that a month ago, Red Sea Merchant Association took a big order to transport Black Crystal Coral and sent out most of the merchant ships in a caravan. Why is there only one ship back now?"
As she spoke, she came to several piles of boxes stacked on the deck and smashed one box, revealing a dark coral-like thing inside.
Seeing this scene Nong Yu has confirmed his guess.
"It's true, it's just that one of the twenty ships has returned. I'm afraid this Red Sea Merchant Association is in big trouble at sea."
"There are still people alive in the cabin. If you want to know what happened, just ask."
Lin Sheng said lightly, already walking towards the cabin as he spoke.
Hearing this, Nong Yu immediately followed quickly.
Although it was only a medium-sized merchant ship, the area inside the cabin was indeed huge. Most of the space was filled with wooden boxes. Lin Sheng smashed two of them casually, and they contained the same thing named Black Crystal Coral.
Arriving at the deepest part of the cabin, there were several sailor-looking men huddled in a ball, their bodies shaking constantly, as if something extremely terrifying had happened to them.
However, there was one person among them, who was tightly tied to a pillar on one side by ropes. Although he was restrained, he had an intoxicating smile on his face, and he made happy smiles from time to time, but his eyes were completely occupied by the whites, and no pupils could be seen.
Such a strange scene is a bit difficult to understand.
"You are from the Red Sea Merchant Association, what happened!?"
Nong Yu frowned and shouted at the few people huddled in the corner.
But a few sailors were still trembling without any reaction, as if they didn't hear anything.
Nong Yu frowned and asked twice more, but the result was still the same.
When he was about to step forward, he was stopped by Lin Sheng.
"They were mentally damaged and couldn't ask any questions."
Lin Sheng shook his head slightly and glanced at the man bound on the pillar.
Then he took a step forward and grabbed the sailor from the corner.
"Ah..."
Several sailors seemed to be stimulated, yelling crazily and slapping randomly, but they were unable to move after being pinched by Lin Sheng's big hands.
He pinched one person's chin and lifted it up, and then a faint light flashed in his eyes.
The fearful sailor in his hand met the eyes of Lin Sheng, and the fear on his face slowly dissipated.
After a while, he calmed down, his body stopped shaking, and his eyes gradually returned to clarity.
Seeing this, Lin Sheng just released it.
"You... who are you!?"
The sailor looked at Lin Sheng and Nong Yu in front of him in confusion.
"You are from the Red Sea Merchant Association. Didn't you transport Black Crystal Coral? What happened? Only a few of you came back?"
Seeing that he regained consciousness, Nong Yu quickly asked.
"Red Sea Merchant Association...Black Crystal Coral?"
Hearing this, the sailor paused, with a look of thought on his face. Soon he seemed to have remembered something, his eyes widened with a look of horror on his face.
"Singing... there was singing, and everyone who heard the singing jumped into the sea... all died... all died..."
The sailor repeated intermittently, his words already becoming incoherent.
"Singing? What singing? What are you talking about!?"
Nong Yu frowned and asked.
But this sailor's eyes suddenly turned white, his body twitched, and he fainted.
