Acting as a god and Buddha: starting from Guanzi

Chapter 66 The Dead Dragon Girl

"My lord, it's still behind us!"

The steward was a little panicked. He had been staring behind him just now, but in the blink of an eye he saw the ghost ship appearing behind him.

Meng Yuan didn't notice how the other party approached, but judging from the current situation, the other party must be eyeing them, but he hasn't shown obvious malice yet.

"Bishamon, go and check it out. If someone is on board, you can ask him what he wants to do."

"Yes."

Bishamon immediately spread his wings and landed on the ship, and entered the room through the deck.

It wasn't long before he came back.

"My lord, nothing was found in the boat."

Since he was not in the boat, he was there. Meng Yuan's eyes gradually moved down to look at the bottom of the opponent's boat, only to realize that the two boats were exactly the same, but the opponent was much taller than Meng Yuan's boat.

"Stay on the boat and protect the children. I'll go and have a look."

Meng Yuan immediately jumped out of the boat. He had a dragon ring and a moon-white monk's robe, so he walked into the sea without fear of the sea.

The surrounding seawater parted automatically. Meng Yuan looked at the bottom of the boat, and a scene that would make an ordinary person's scalp tingle appeared in front of him.

He saw strange corpses lying on the bottom of the boat, staring at him with wide eyes.

Meng Yuan frowned slightly, and then observed with his discerning eye, he found that these were all dead people, without any life at all. A picture gradually emerged in his mind.

As far as the eye can see, the waves are raging, countless corpses are going against the current, and countless ferocious seabirds and sea monsters are feasting in the water, but they will soon become one of them and head together in a certain direction.

The picture ended here, but this shocking picture gave Meng Yuan some bad premonition.

Where did those corpses come from?Why do they come?

According to what he saw with his discerning eyes, it was an almost endless wave of corpses, and they seemed to be heading towards the land.

Just as he was in a trance, a black shadow rushed over suddenly, it seemed that Meng Yuan's living breath stimulated them, and the group of corpses rioted!
Roar!
The sea water was churning, and a big wave was set off in an instant, causing the two cargo ships to swing violently. Everyone stared at the water in horror, and several Yashas wanted to fly down.

Fortunately, at this moment, Meng Yuan's figure broke through the water in time, with arms poking out from below as if trying to catch him.

But at this time, he saw a woman standing on the deck. He had seen it before. It was the one who talked to Manzhu when he went out to sea that day, but why did she appear here?
Meng Yuan returned to the boat, but the figure of the woman on the opposite deck had disappeared, but he could feel a gaze staring at him from the opposite side.

"I don't know what you want to stop the poor monk?" Meng Yuan asked.

The steward looked at him with a horrified look on his face. Who was this monk talking to?Could it be that he is crazy?

It's just that he hopes that Meng Yuan will not go crazy at this moment, otherwise all of them will die.

The woman on the boat seemed to open her mouth to say something, but Meng Yuan couldn't hear it, but he could feel that the other party didn't seem to have any malicious intentions, but instead had a kind of begging for him.

But there are still many children on board, Meng Yuan will not let the other party come over, and said: "If there is anything that needs the help of the poor monk, I will help you, but please don't stand in front of it now."

Sure enough, the other party could hear his words, and the ghost ship began to drive forward slowly, as if it was escorting it.

Meng Yuan didn't hesitate, and said to the steward beside him, "Follow me."

"Huh? Oh yes."

The two boats headed for Yuanzhou City one after the other, but at the moment the sailors on the Meng Yuan boat were a little hairy. After all, there was a ghost boat next to them. Who knew if they would reach the destination or not be the time of their death.

As the night passed, the sun rose from the east and shone warmly on the ship, making the sailors who had not rested all night feel a little drowsy.

But as soon as he saw the ghost ship in front of him, he immediately woke up.

Near noon, Meng Yuan came to the remote dock again. The ghost ship parked aside without any movement. Meng Yuan went to Yuanzhou City to visit Zhao Shanren and asked him to temporarily take in these children.

"Don't worry, Holy Monk, trivial matters are not worth mentioning."

Meng Yuan thanked them sincerely, and then asked the Zhao family to pick up the children. However, he was a little embarrassed by the people on the boat. It would definitely not be possible to let them go, and it would not be a problem if they were all killed.

At this moment, the woman on the ghost ship opposite appeared again, and Meng Yuan came in front of her, but a silhouette could be vaguely seen at a close distance, just like the invisible person in his previous life.

But this time the other party drew a picture directly on the deck, with a bald head vaguely visible on it and a little girl next to it.

"Manju?"

She came for Manzhu.

Sure enough, the woman nodded, and then drew a family portrait, a boat and a line, which were graffitied by children.

Meng Yuan understood: "Are you Manzhu's relative? Do you want to take Manzhu home?"

The other party nodded, then shook his head again.

After a complicated exchange between the two, Meng Yuan learned that the other party turned out to be Manzhu's sister, but she was sacrificed to the sea god before Manzhu was born, and she was a dead dragon girl.

But because of her special dragon bloodline, she did not turn into a mindless monster like the other corpses.

She hoped that Meng Yuan could take Manzhu back in the future and enter Hualongchi to retrieve her dragon beads, so as to stimulate the dragon blood in her body, and only in this way could she completely get rid of the curse of Sea God.

Today's Manzhu still needs to rely on the Heart Sutra to suppress her own deterioration, which turned out to be the curse of the sea god.

Then Meng Yuan asked her why she appeared here?
The woman was scribbling on the deck as if she wanted to express some meaning. Countless corpses were moving toward one point. Meng Yuan's wisdom suddenly changed and he roughly understood that there was something attracting them.

"Don't worry, Manzhu is my disciple, I will take her back when the time is right, and I will come back to you when the time comes."

The woman saluted, and then disappeared, probably hiding in the cabin.

As for the disposal of these crew members, Meng Yuan asked them to stay on the ship temporarily. He may still need them in the confrontation with the Wang family. As for fresh water, food and other supplies, the Zhao family will send them regularly.

The ghost ship will watch them. If someone disembarks without permission, they will die without knowing how.

After solving this matter, Meng Yuan naturally gained a lot of merit. After he rescued people many times, the merit that had been exhausted in his dantian accumulated a lot.

But he no longer cares about these things. The more he comes into contact with the world, he always feels awkward, as if he is walking on a bumpy road.

Especially when I heard Manzhu's sister say that all the corpses in the sea were sacrificed to the sea god, it made the anger in his heart boil involuntarily. It was the anger of countless dead corpses in the sea.

But they were all suppressed by Meng Yuan, and the rightful owner was missing. Who was the nameless fire directed at?
He has compassion, wisdom, purity, and bodhicitta, and will not be easily affected by anger. He will only ignite the anger when he feels the need to ignite it. Who will be burned to death at that time?
