206. The Hidden Spirits
The sea water was blocked by some kind of force at a distance of three meters from the ancient ship, and the hull of the ship lit up with the lines of certain formations. This is obviously the operating principle of the ancient ship, relying on the formation to accomplish some things that cannot be done by current technology.
The surrounding area is not as dark as the impression of the underground water, but some kind of light is derived from the seawater, not the sun's light. According to Ruan Tang, it is a small luminescent plankton that exists in large quantities within a radius of 500 kilometers from Hanhai City, illuminating this body of water.
Something amazing, for which no results have been studied, may be a man-made product of some chaotic period, or it may be something that has been naturally generated. After the period of great chaos, too many things were lost, the spiritual world collapsed, and modern society has extremely strict control over the behavior of practitioners. Some people claim that perhaps in another thousand years, there will not be a single cultivator in the world.
Of course, these messes don't matter what happens in nine days. A variety of strange aquatic plants and animals paddled leisurely by, not afraid of these huge ancient boats.
A behemoth swam underneath the ancient ship, and it was like an island that suddenly dived to the bottom of the sea.
"I didn't expect to see a land whale!" Ruan Tang's surprised voice sounded, and then explained to Jiutian and the students: "There is only one land whale in this sea area, and it has always been regarded as a symbol of good luck in Hanhai City, and seeing a land whale means that you will have good luck all day long." ”
Many people looked surprised, and then took pictures frantically with their mobile phones.
After the land whales, several schools of fish swam over and walked by. This fantastical scene made Jiutian suddenly give birth to himself and travel to the science fiction world three thousand years later.
This feeling lasted until it was close to Hanhai City, and in front of the ancient ship, a submarine seamount was spared, and a dense complex of buildings appeared in front of you. There are no rows of high-rise buildings, all of them are quaint wooden attics, or exquisite tiles. The low-rise buildings are densely divided in the area in front of you, forming a huge Hanhai City.
The entire city is covered in an inverted bowl-shaped membrane that makes it impenetrable to the sea, creating a habitable territory.
In an instant, Jiutian fell from the science fiction world three thousand years later to the Xianxia world. Eh, no, it seems like I'm in the world of Xianxia.
The ancient ship dived downward, and then followed a current into the harbor of Hanhai City. That's right, a river that crossed the membrane and carried the ancient ship into the harbor.
The port is busy, with ships coming in and leaving the port, and there is a huge flow of people every minute.
As soon as I got off the boat, I saw someone holding a sign from Zhengcheng University on the opposite side, obviously the staff of the university exchange meeting came to pick up people. When he arrived in Source City, Ruan Tang had already called.
After meeting with the staff, they quickly got on the bus and headed to the hotel. Although it is the school's funding, it is not without moderation. Two people in a room. Only Jiutian and Ruan Tang can have a separate room.
The exchange session started on Tuesday, so it wasn't too rushed, and many students were eager to get out and about.
After checking in, Jiutian was very understanding and gave everyone free time. After all, they are all adults, and he didn't force anything, just told them not to cause trouble, not to delay the exchange meeting, and let everyone leave.
Then Jiutian was also ready to slip away, he didn't believe in this huge Hanhai City, and he couldn't find any news about the Kraken.
But Ruan Tang didn't let him get his wish, but dragged him outside to rent a shuttle. That's right, it's a rented shuttle. In view of the fact that there is no old driver's license for nine days, it is natural to drive Ruan Tang, a soft girl.
"Can you drive a shuttle?" Jiutian looked at Ruan Tang suspiciously, no matter how the other party looked like a driver.
"Of course!" Ruan Tang, who was holding the steering wheel, seemed to have become a little different.
Suddenly, the shuttle made a shrill sound, and then disappeared like a phantom.
Jiutian found out that Ruan Tang is a shy and cute girl on the surface, but deep down she is definitely a wild female driver! In Hanhai City, there are many unknown small streets scattered among the rows of low buildings. A veteran driver in the local taxi business will have some unknown shortcuts to get to his destination quickly, or he can go around and drain his passengers' wallets without knowing it. This is the characteristic of Hanhai City.
Ruan Tang, a native of Hanhai City, is undoubtedly also an old driver, as she knows from the fact that she did not hesitate to burrow into the alley that is just big enough to accommodate a shuttle.
Accelerating, elegant...... Nine days of playing all kinds of car skills just want to shout 666 and get out of the car.
Nine Days used to feel like he would never get motion sick, even before today. But now he finds that the promise of being too beautiful is still because he is too young.
After about forty minutes of driving, the car finally stopped. Jiutian immediately opened the car door and ran down, and the feeling of being down-to-earth made his nausea immediately ease a lot. He decided to wait until he went back, even if he was cheated by a local taxi driver, he would never take Ruan Tang's car again.
"Are you okay?" As soon as Ruan Tang's hands left the steering wheel, the soul of the wild female driver was immediately imprisoned and turned into a soft girl form again.
As for whether there is anything wrong, Jiutian really wants to ask, don't you have a B number in your heart?
I bought a bottle of water from the overtime on the side of the street and poured it down, and it took nine days to fully recover, and then I started to build a lot of the surrounding environment. At this glance, he found the neighborhood unusually quiet and inaccessible, with stone steps in front of him, hidden among the lush greenery, leading to the top. On both sides of the stone steps, there are also scattered bronze lampholders with a historical atmosphere.
Standing directly below the stone steps and looking up, I found that at the end of the stone steps was a mansion-like courtyard, and the word "Hidden Spirit" was written on the plaque directly above the gate.
"That's right, this is it!" Ruan Tang locked the shuttle and glanced up, then nodded with satisfaction, "Let's go, Jiutian, let's go up." ”
"Wait!" Jiutian was really confused now, Ruan Tang inexplicably pulled him to such a place, and there was no explanation yet. If he hadn't known that the soft girl couldn't have harmed him, he might have called the police now.
"Hey, didn't the teacher tell you?" Ruan Tang was also stunned.
"If I did, I wouldn't have asked...... Okay, now tell me what kind of place this is?" Nine Days hurriedly stopped the unnourishing conversation.
Ruan Tang pondered for a moment, obviously organizing the language.
"This is the Hidden Soul Society, a club of spirit planters that can only be joined if you pass the assessment. ”
"The president of the Hidden Spirit Society is one of the current Divine Flower level spirit planters. ”
