Chapter 781: Betting

Luo Jun and Jingning are very interested in this topic. People living on the sea naturally have a better say than Luo Jun and Jingning.
This is also because Luo Jun and Jingning understand the mysterious factors in the world. They know that in the unknown, there are many possibilities.
In Liu Yan's view, she was just listening to some novel stories. She can only be regarded as a possible legend, but Luo Jun and Jingning know that in the boundless ocean, there must be powerful creatures.
Uncle Xiong smiled at this time and said: "Actually, I have heard that we have been walking on the sea for a long time. We have also seen some weird things, such as water monkeys... Once, we really caught a piece of water. monkey."
"Water monkey?" Liu Yan couldn't help being excited. She said, "Does the water monkey you mentioned is the kind of water monkey we have heard of. It is the soul of a person who changes after death? That is, water ghost?"
Uncle Xiong said,
I’m not sure if it’s a water ghost. Anyway, after the water monkey was caught, it looked very ugly, but you can tell from the outline that it is a monkey. The monkey is very fierce. Struggling desperately, grinning. Moreover, after it came up, the eyes were very bitter. Everyone dare not look at it! At that time, there were not as many camera phones as you have now, so we did not leave any information. I wanted to take this monkey back, and I wanted to give it to the government or sell it to the black market, and see if I could change it for some money, but then, for some reason, our ship became heavier and heavier, and it was about to be dragged and sunk. When we checked, we were horrified and found that there were densely packed water monkeys under the ship. At that time, we were terrified and thought we were going to die on this sea."
"Later, an experienced old man was wise and asked us to release the water monkeys and kowtow to the water monkeys. We threw a lot of food into the sea, and then the water monkeys gradually dispersed. At that time, I’m only twenty years old, full of blood, and I don’t know how to be awed. Later, the longer I walked on the sea, the more I knew how to be awed. So later, they were going to that evil island, I chose not to go."
Liu Yan said: "Will the water monkey be a monkey that lives under the water? It is not a water ghost at all."
Uncle Xiong smiled slightly and said, "Then I don't know."
Luo Jun smiled and said, "Liu Yan, why do you think that the water monkey is a monkey, not a ghost?"
Liu Yan said: "Because my experience and knowledge tell me that most feudal superstitions are based on falsehoods. Unless they are seen with our own eyes, we can't believe them. Many things like water ghosts are falsely transmitted by old people. We are a modern society and we must dare to question. Everything must be explained with a scientific attitude. What is illusory is not credible after all."
"Maybe it's not vain." Luo Jun smiled slightly and said: "This society is actually very strange. Those high-ranking officials with high education and high social status are desperately worshiping Buddha, and they pay attention to Feng Shui. On the contrary, the poor and white people don't believe in those superstitions. I think those things are deceiving ghosts."
"Isn't it a lie?" Liu Yan said: "How many of the Buddhist temples are really good people?"
Luo Jun said: "You are right. In the age of interest, most Buddhist temples have become commercial and have become a sustenance for people to seek inner peace. People who have done bad things need these things, and they have money in their hands. Then, This has commercial needs. I understand this truth!"
Liu Yan said: "Yes, it is true."
Luo Jun said: "But what must be said is that this universe is too big. This earth is too big, and this human being is too small. How long have humans existed? And how many years have the creatures on earth existed? Humans cannot be too arrogant and think they know everything. The last thing we cannot explore is the infinite ocean. What is materialism? You see the growth of rice, and you see it with the naked eye, which is materialism. You think the water ghost is illusory. It’s just an old man’s rumour. But how did the water ghost form? Maybe, it can also have its growth traces like rice. For example, when a person lives, everything is in his head. Brain waves. So, if you feel that you exist, you will obviously feel that all thoughts are formed in the brain. Once this brain wave dies in the body, it will die because there is no carrier. But, maybe On the contrary, can seawater become a carrier of brainwaves? The human soul, that is, brainwaves after death, is very unwilling to carry it through seawater. The longer the time, the stronger the thoughts, and later, they become stronger because of the soul. Then, you can be attached to some small creatures. Finally, after evolution, growth, and finally become the water monkey now. The reason why I say this is not to say that I know that water monkeys are water ghosts. Rather, if you want to explain, you don’t necessarily have to explain it.

"We humans are too small, and we need to be in awe of all unknown things. You can't have you never seen it, you can deny the existence of this thing and thing." Luo Jun said: "Blindly feudal superstition, this is of course a big mistake Very wrong. But blindly thinking that there is no and no ghost in the world, that is too idealistic."
Both Liu Yan and Xiong Bo looked at Luo Jun in surprise. They felt the great wisdom of Luo Jun.
At this time, Liu Yan finally understood a little bit, why Luo Jun was able to get to this point.
He is not a local tyrant on the surface, this man has a tiger in his heart!
And it is extremely wise.
Jingning was also slightly surprised, but she didn't say much.
"If there is a chance, I really want to see what constitutes this water monkey." Luo Jun smiled afterwards.
Uncle Xiong said hurriedly, "Don't watch it. Just as you said, we still have to be in awe."
Luo Jun said: "Awe is awe, but you must also have the heart to explore."
Liu Yan smiled and said, "Mr. Luo, you said anyway."
Luo Jun laughed.
Jingning said: "We should continue to talk about the King of the Sea. In your opinion, the old man, what is the King of the Sea?"
Uncle Xiong said: "A filmmaker once came to our fishing village for an interview." He smiled and said, "The filmmaker also asked a similar topic. I told him a legend."
"What legend?" Luo Jun and Jingning asked almost simultaneously.
Uncle Xiong said, "You should know about turtles. Some of the same turtles are tortoises and some are sea turtles. I also heard an old man walking on the sea say. He said that in ancient times, humans were divided into two branches, one The branch is a human being on land. Another group lives in the water because of the loss of land. Over time, they have evolved a mermaid that is half human and half fish, that is, the merman tribe."
Liu Yan gave a dry cough and said, "Now there is a movie called Mermaid. What you said to the old man about the ancient times is a template."
Jingning said: "I also watched this film, but it's not very credible. One of the reasons is that the mermaid in it is too weak. You know, if there is a race of human fish, then they already exist in the sea. Countless years. Even if they don’t develop technology, they will definitely develop magic skills."
"Spell?" Liu Yan was dumbfounded.
Luo Jun understood it in seconds.
Humans on land can control spells, so the mysterious mermaid tribe in the ocean should be more powerful.
"So, old man, do you think the king of the land is a human being, and the king of the sea is a mermaid?" Jingning said.
Uncle Xiong laughed and said, "I don't think anything, it's all hearsay. Today is also boring, so just talk about it casually."
The topic is almost here.
In the afternoon, Luo Jun stood in front of the guardrail and looked at the endless sea.
He kept seeing dark.
When it was dark, Jingning came behind Luo Jun.
"Are you thinking, is there any mermaid in the ocean?" Jingning stood beside Luo Jun and said.
Luo Jun said: "Is there a mermaid? Everyone has never seen this. No one dares to say that there is. But the only thing that is certain is that there must be a powerful and unknown force in the depths of the ocean. Just like in the universe, there are more than just beings on the earth."
Jingning said, "It doesn't matter whether you have it or not. Why do you have to think about it for so long? We can all know about so many things in the world. Isn't it enough to live well?"
Luo Jun said: "You're right, I just got interested for a while, so I think more."
Jingning said, "I suddenly had an interesting idea."
"Oh, let's hear it." Luo Jundao.
Jingning said: "We went into the sea with our respective mana to see who could catch a sea mount. Then, we controlled the mount and had a water race. After we caught the mount, we got off the yacht. After the yacht goes a certain distance. In the end, whoever gets on the yacht first wins."
"Okay!" Luo Jun smiled and said, "Since it is a game, there should be some bets for fun."
Jingning said, "What do you want to bet on?"
Luo Jun said: "You talk about it first, because you brought up the game."
Jingning said: "If I win, you have to promise to do something for me. As for what it is, I haven't figured it out yet. As long as you can do it, you can't refuse."
"If you let me kill, then I won't do it!" Luo Jun said: "You want my property, that won't work!"
"It's definitely not deliberately making things difficult," Jingning said.
Luo Jun said, "That's good."
Jingning said again: "If I lose, I will promise you the same thing."
Luo Jun smiled and said, "I have nothing to do for me!"
Jingning said: "Are you still interesting?"
Luo Jun said, "What if I want your body?"
"Of course not!" Jingning said.
Luo Jun said, "What about kissing you?"
"This...this line!" Jingning hesitated for a moment, then said.
"Don't hesitate to do a kiss. It's cheaper for you. If I lose, how much will I pay? Besides, I haven't kissed you." Luo Jun laughed.
