Chapter 344: Hehe 34┃ Amber.

Zhu Haowen held this somewhat hot music box tightly with both hands, and gently closed the lid, shutting the sound of the monstrous waves in the box.
At this time, between the water ripples carved on the lid of the box, there appeared a dragon with wings. This is a dragon that can draw the ground with its tail. Its long body maintains a dancing posture, with huge wings. Draw several arcs of the sea ripples, like a miracle.
Its mission in this world is probably to protect the sea from the raging fire in the sky.
Therefore, when the box was completely opened to it, it seemed to have heard a certain fateful call, and then desperately handed itself over to this small box. It was carrying the hunting sea breeze at the time, and it carried a slow dragon spirit. The pair of wings still carried the flames left to extinguish the sky fire.
In this way, Ying Long willingly transformed himself into a pattern on the lid of the box.
Qin Ci looked at the pattern of the "Eight Monsters of the Sea" slowly converging around the lid and the box: starting with the first 狻猊, then the clam, then the strange fish, the spirit turtle, the idol, and the Tianma, until just now it was added. This incredible Yinglong.
"I didn't expect that there are dragons in the Sea Eight Monsters." Zhu Haowen planned to go back and check the information about the Sea Eight Monsters.
Qin Ci said with emotion: "The eight monsters of the sea are not just as simple as patterns. In my opinion, they are like life totems. They are guarding this sea area with their lives and souls."
There are seven sea monsters now, and there is one last one I don't know where to find.
The flames in the sky are getting lower and lower, and the distance between the fire and the sea is about seven or eight stories high.
The sea water started to heat up, and some fish and shrimp that could not stand this temperature fled around like the end of the world, as if the sea water was about to be heated to boiling, and eventually they would be boiled in a pot and become a delicacy for the of fire.
"Time is running out. The only NPC we met here is Monk Hai, but now the life and death of Monk Hai is unclear." Qin Ci has completely submerged in the sea, and the temperature on the sea surface is starting to make people unable to adapt, and the scalp will even be scorched. a feeling of.
Zhu Haowen couldn't bear this kind of doomsday feeling. He completely immersed himself in the water and swam deeper into the sea. At this time, he spit out a blister towards Qin Ci: "Some of these sea monsters are something we encountered by chance. Some were found under the guidance of the dragon girl, and some were found only after being reminded by other sea monsters... We only have the last hour left, and we can't just wait."
Qin Ci also spit out a bubble: "Or, let's go find Dragon Girl again?"
"After the dragon girl gave us the dragon tendons, she limped into the depths of the pine forest," Zhu Haowen thought for a while before spitting out a small blister, "Shall we go to the big pine tree to try our luck?"
Qin Ci nodded, and the two quickly swam towards the big pine tree together.
After swimming on the bottom of the sea for a while, the two of them surfaced and continued to swim forward. After a while, they saw the familiar pine forest. The huge ancient pine was still standing upright and towering in color, which made people see at a glance. .
The fire cloud spitting the heat wave in the sky became lower and lower, and soon some flames touched the top of this big pine tree-the height of this tree can almost connect the fire and the sea at this moment.
The top of the big pine tree burned, and Qin Ci was a little anxious: "What to do, this big pine tree has turned into a fuse and will soon draw the fire down!"
Zhu Haowen felt that the water on the sea surface was getting hotter and hotter, and at this moment he could only sink into the sea again. When he saw the scene under the sea, he hurriedly pulled Qin Ci's ankle above and dragged it off.
It turned out that this giant pine was standing upright, and part of the trunk was actually under the water. Qin Ci vomited a blister in surprise: "It's strange, when we met Dragon Girl, she obviously sat under the pine tree to make clothes. At that time, the land under the pine trees was above the water. How could it sink to the bottom now?"
Several speculations arose in Zhu Haowen's mind, but they felt that they were unfounded, so he simply ignored them.
The two swam around the pine tree, and there was an old woman on the other side of the tree. The old woman was sitting under the tree in the water as if she were on land—because it was too sudden, neither of them was surprised. .
Even at the bottom of the sea, you can still see clearly that this old woman is the dragon girl who gave the two dragon tendons before.
The Dragon Girl is not mending clothes now, but sitting under the pine tree in a daze, occasionally looking up at the pine tree that is on fire, with a sad expression on the bright world of fire on the water.
Zhu Haowen and Qin Ci swam slowly over, neither of them made a sound.
On the contrary, the Dragon Girl stared at the two of them blankly, and slowly spit out a blister: "If I had repaired my son's clothes earlier, he would not be burned to death by the fire that day."
"Your son..." Qin Ci saw Zhu Haowen break the dragon girl's blisters, but he could hear the dragon girl's voice.
"Have you seen that long-winged fire dragon? It was my son who was extinguishing the sky fire." The dragon girl's gray eyes showed no glamour. "But now, my son has died in the sea of ​​fire and cannot return. ."
Zhu Haowen thought for a while, and showed the box to Dragon Girl.
Dragon Girl looked at the totem of Yinglong on the lid of the box, her eyes gradually brightened, and even crystal tears fell, and those tears slowly melted into the water like blisters.
"You are actually almost collecting the eight monsters of the sea," the dragon girl raised her head and spit out a blister. "It's still the last one."
Qin Ci Blisters: "So we come again to beg you, and hope you can give us some pointers. If the sea monsters can be gathered earlier, the fire will go away as soon as possible."
The dragon girl looked up at the big pine tree burning all over her body and smiled, "Maybe this is the fate."
The big pine tree was burned by the sky fire. At this moment, it has become a huge fire tree. Some things are dripping down from the tree. Even if those things fall into the water, they are not melted, but are quite substantial. sinking.
Zhu Haowen stretched out his hand to catch a drop, which felt like thick honey, twisted it with his hand, thinking that it should be turpentine.
Some of these drops of rosin are big and some are small. Those big drops are almost as big as the palms of people's hands, and the small ones are only as small as raindrops.
Qin Ci suddenly vomited a blister anxiously: "Where is the Dragon Girl? Why is the Dragon Girl missing?!"
In such a short time, the Dragon Girl disappeared.
The trunk of the giant pine tree in the water is like an illusion, while the fire tree burning above the water is more like an illusion.
Zhu Haowen seemed to have discovered something suddenly. He didn't pay attention to the blisters that Qin Ci spit out, but rushed straight to the bottom of the sea.
Qin Ci followed closely behind, two people one after another like two arrows shooting into the water.
After a while, Zhu Haowen stopped his downward rushing speed, and he seemed to have caught something in his hand.
Qin Ci was too late to spit out blisters, staring at Zhu Haowen at the moment, asking the other party's purpose with his eyes.
Zhu Haowen had an unbelievable expression on his face, spread his palms, and let Qin Ci look at what was in his palm.
Qin Ci looked over and saw that there was a pine resin in the palm of Zhu Haowen's palm, which was still unknown for a while.
Zhu Haowen spouted a blister: "Look carefully, what's in it?"
Qin Ci took the pine resin and relied on the firelight on the water to illuminate it. He saw that the pine resin had a watered-down Pu-erh tea-like color and felt very hard. He didn’t know how it quickly condensed itself. .
In the center of this pine resin, there seemed to be something faintly. Qin Ci looked carefully and found that it was a young woman in ancient costume, wearing a fairy-like high-ringed bun and wearing fairy-like clothes. , The clothes are fluttering, and the color is curled up.
"This is..." Qin Ci spit out a faint small blister with difficulty, because everything was so strange that he really didn't know how to express it in words.
Zhu Haowen blister: "This is the Dragon Girl, the way the Dragon Girl looked when she was young."
Qin Ci observed carefully, and only then saw a pair of dragon horns from the top of the fairy's head.
Could it be that a drop of pine resin fell into the water just now, wrapping up the dragon girl? It turned into an amber.
Why did the dragon girl turn herself into an amber?
Zhu Haowen's eyes were very complicated, he slowly put the amber inlaid with the dragon girl into the box.
Soon, the box glowed blue.
On the lid of the box, beside the dancing dragon totem, the dragon girl sits in a young image, mending her clothes with her head down.
Unexpectedly, the last thing of the Sea Eight Monsters was the Dragon Girl.
"It takes a thousand years for a piece of pine resin to condense into amber," Qin Ci spit out a blister after a long while, "Could it be that we just rushed into the water?
At some point, the flames on the water disappeared.
The two slowly swam upwards. The fish and shrimp, who had been panicking for their lives a few minutes ago, had recovered their natural comfort at this moment.
Above the sea, there is a long-lost tranquility and coolness.
"The waves are calm, the golden scales swim! The sky is light up and down, and the sky is blue!" Qin Ci couldn't believe the scene before him. The fire in the sky seemed to have never happened before. It seems that the peace here has lasted for hundreds of years. , Even tens of thousands of years.
Zhu Haowen: "I have all the strings on my back..."
Qin Ci: "..."
Once the eight sea monsters are gathered, they can really suppress the sky fire and preserve the sea.
It turns out this is not just an empty legend.
Zhu Haowen was holding that strange music box in his hand, and every totem on it could make people appreciate it for a long time.
It's a pity that the two people don't have much time and mood to appreciate these.
Zhu Haowen opened the music box, and the sound of the huge waves resounded again. Accompanied by these sounds was a small fragment lying quietly at the bottom of the box.
Qin Ci picked up this fragment and saw a wave of the sea deeply carved on the broken wood.
