309 The Attack Of the Sea Monsters
In the ancient alternate dimension.
“Fifth Grandpa, what should we do with this person?” the panicking Li Mingliang suddenly grabbed Fifth Uncle Li, who was about to leave and pointed at Gu Mingzhou.
“What do you mean? Don’t get involved in adults’ affairs. Quickly go to the cabin and hide!” without waiting for Fifth Uncle Li’s reply, a young man who had previously objected to fishing up Gu Mingzhou spoke again and directly scolded Li Mingliang.
“Fifth Uncle, in my opinion, this person was attacked by sea monsters as soon as he appeared. Even if he’s not a sea monster, he’s not an auspicious person either. He must be a disaster, and it’s better to get rid of him directly with the sea!” the young man cupped his hands and said to Fifth Uncle Li.
“Don’t, Fifth Uncle. I don’t think that Brother is a bad person.” Li Mingliang was shocked and pulled on Fifth Uncle Li.
“What do you know? Would a bad person’s face have “bad person” written on his face? Children should not interrupt when adults are talking.” The young man scolded Li Mingliang again.
“Why are you, adults of his uncle’s generation, competing with a child?” an unhappy expression flashed across Fifth Uncle Li’s face. He was obviously dissatisfied with Li Mingliang being scolded repeatedly.
“Fifth Uncle!” Li Meng was shocked when he heard this and quickly shouted.
“All right, I know what I’m doing, so you don’t have to say anything more. What are you guys still standing there for? Hurry up and save him.” Before Li Meng could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Fifth Uncle Li.
“Mingliang, it’s too dangerous here. I’ll take you to the cabin first. Li Meng, hurry up and save the people here.” Fifth Uncle Li did not hesitate at all. He pulled Li Mingliang and walked towards the cabin.
“I know, Fifth Uncle! You guys, pull the net up!” Li Meng cupped his hands unwillingly.
The remaining four people on the deck quickly pulled the hemp rope and quickly pulled the fishing net that bound Gu Mingzhou onto the deck.
Swish!
Without waiting for the crowd to untie the net and release Gu Mingzhou, Li Meng suddenly pulled out the knife at his waist and instantly placed it on Gu Mingzhou’s shoulder.
“I don’t care if you’re a human or a monster. Since Fifth Uncle saved you out of kindness, you’d better behave yourself. If I find out that you have ulterior motives, Li Meng will not be easy to deal with!” Li Meng stared at Gu Mingzhou and said hatefully.
“Brother, don’t worry. I just fell into the sea by accident. I’m very grateful to you for saving my life. I have no evil intentions!” Gu Mingzhou didn’t care about the knife on his neck.
After all, with Gu Mingzhou’s current cultivation, ordinary iron could not hurt him.
Moreover, he had no ill intentions toward these fishermen.
Now, he was even more confused. It was just like what Master Qin had said. After he was caught in the net, he didn’t attract the monstrous waves to stop him.
This was very weird, and you could say it was abnormal.
“You two, tie up his hands first, then untie the net!” even though Gu Mingzhou expressed his goodwill again, Li Meng still did not believe him and instructed the people beside him.
“Got it!” two of the four men who were pulling the net turned around and took out hemp ropes. They quickly tied Gu Mingzhou’s hands together and then untied the net.
“Thank you, brothers. Don’t worry. I really don’t have any bad intentions.” The net left his body, and Gu Mingzhou immediately felt the pressure on his body disappear. Even though his hands were tied up, he still felt relaxed. He quickly thanked the man,
“You stay here and don’t go anywhere. The four of you look after him. I’ll go check the situation!” Li Meng raised the saber again and waved it in front of Gu Mingzhou as a warning. He turned around and was about to leave.
The entire wooden boat seemed to have suffered a heavy blow.
A muffled sound rang out. The sail swayed, and the seawater surged. The entire wooden boat began to shake violently.
Plop!
Everyone on the deck, including Gu Mingzhou, was caught off guard by this sudden change and fell onto the deck.
“Not good. The sea monster is catching up!” a panicked voice was heard.
“What?” Li Meng, who had also been knocked down, jumped up, and his expression changed greatly!
Without waiting for a reply, he ran to the stern.
There was a clamor of human voices coming from the stern of the ship, accompanied by the rolling sound of water and the constant sound of weapons.
It was obvious that the people on the stern had already started fighting with the sea monster.
The remaining four people on the deck looked nervous. When they got up from the deck, they pulled out their waist knives and stared cautiously at the stern with worried expressions.
“Brother, what’s a sea monster?” Gu Mingzhou was too lazy to get up. He sat cross-legged on the deck and looked at Li Meng, who was leaving in a hurry.
“You’ve been fishing in the Qing Sea, but you don’t know about sea monsters?” the young man asked.
“I accidentally fell into this place. I’m not from here, so I don’t know what a sea monster is. Anyway, I have nothing to do now. Can you tell me about it?” Gu Mingzhou leaned against the deck and asked.
“Sea monsters are the man-eating monsters in Qing Sea. Each sea monster is extremely huge and extremely ferocious. It’s the biggest nemesis of us fishermen who live on the sea!” without waiting for the young man to answer, the other slightly older fisherman explained first.
“I see. Have you seen sea monsters before?” Gu Mingzhou continued to ask.
“How can we just meet him as we please? How many people who had seen sea monsters could survive? You’re lucky today. The Fifth Uncle, who asked us to save you, encountered a sea monster when he went fishing five years ago. At that time, he had a group of thirty to forty people, but only Fifth Uncle managed to escape.”
The old fisherman seemed to have opened up a chatterbox and started to talk enthusiastically. He simply sat down and told Gu Mingzhou about Fifth Uncle Li’s deeds.
It turned out that this Fifth Uncle Li had been interested in going out to sea to fish five years ago. He had directly driven the fishing boat thousands of miles deep into the Qing Sea.
He had wanted to catch some big fish for the winter, but he had unexpectedly encountered a huge sea monster.
The sea monster was like a giant python. It was four to five meters thick and three hundred meters long. It had a ferocious face and fangs.
When the sea monster appeared, it brought with it a huge wave that directly overturned Fifth Uncle Li’s fishing boat. It then cruelly devoured the fishermen who fell into the water.
More than half of Fifth Uncle Li’s group had been killed. Although the remaining seven managed to escape by luck, they were also on the way back. Their physical strength was insufficient, and they drowned one after another.
In the end, the only one who returned safely was Fifth Uncle Li.
“To be honest, you’re really lucky. If it wasn’t for Fifth Uncle Li’s favorite grandson, Mingliang, who went out to sea for the first time and offered to protect you, I’m afraid Fifth Uncle Li might not have saved you!” at the end of his sentence, the old fisherman reached out and patted Gu Mingzhou’s shoulder.
“I’ll have to thank that little brother later properly.” Gu Mingzhou quickly agreed.
“Let’s talk about this later when we can survive! Now that the sea monster is here, I’m afraid we can’t escape!” the old fisherman sighed.
He stood up again and looked at the stern of the ship. He couldn’t help but worry.
“Heaven helps the good. Good people will be rewarded. Everyone will turn misfortune into a fortune!” Gu Mingzhou consoled.
