"Wow, I can't stand on the water at all … It's better to talk about why I can stand on the water after transforming!"
Wu Ye was receiving special training from Otohime on the sea.
Although she said so, the actual situation was that the girl kept falling and plunging into the sea.
But even so, Wu Yejin only complained verbally and had no intention of giving up.
After watching her for a while on the coconut tree, the parrot spread its wings and flew to the other side of the beach.
Because it was blocked by the reef, it was like a visual blind spot. Wu Yejin couldn't see the situation here.
Xu Shenxing stood there leaning against the reef.
"Although she's a clumsy girl, she still works hard, right?" The parrot seemed to want to land on Xu Shenxing's shoulder, but the latter glanced at it and it landed on the reef washed by the tide.
"I'm just wondering why you came out so late. Out of vigilance, I followed to take a look."
Xu Shenxing crossed his arms and said silently.
"Oh, it's really hard for you."
The parrot looked past Xu Shenxing and looked at the behemoth floating in the sea not far away, which was also in Wu Yejin's visual blind spot.
It was a monster called the Great Gluttonous Beast.
This monster was simply a giant octopus.
In the legend of Fusang, the Great Gluttonous Beast was a monster that was extremely obsessed with women. It once appeared in a place called the Great Third Island Milk Point near the modern area of Shikoku.
There was a beautiful seventeen-year-old girl named Abang. The Great Gluttonous Beast coveted her beauty. When she went to wash clothes, it suddenly appeared and threatened the girl to be its wife. If she didn't agree, it would summon a storm to set off a huge wave to destroy Abang's village.
Abang was shocked. She quickly said to the Great Gluttonous Beast that she really couldn't accept the other party's eight legs. If there were only two legs, she could bear it. She asked the Great Gluttonous Beast to cut off one of her legs every day. When there were only two legs left, she would marry it.
Da Nianzu agreed to Ah Bang's suggestion, and every night he would appear and cut off one of Ah Bang's legs.
Ah Bang's father was an expert fisherman. After Ah Bang told him about the situation, he made preparations to sharpen his harpoon until it was sharp. Six days later, when the Great Gluttonous Beast only had two legs left and was about to kidnap Ah Bang, he would step in to stop it. If possible, he would directly kill the monster.
However, six days later, when Abang cut off the sixth leg of the giant beast, the giant beast used its remaining tentacles to wrap around Abang and dragged the girl into the sea. No matter how hard her father dived, he could not find her.
Since then, Ah Bang's father would dive into the water from the place where Ah Bang was abducted to look for his daughter, while Ah Bang's mother would cry there.
In the end, both of them disappeared, leaving behind only two reefs named 'Grandpa Rock' and 'Po Rock'.
During the Seven Blessings God's visit, this guy also showed up, but he was scared off by Da Hei and Ebisu. Some gods with authority related to the sea also tried to suppress this guy, but because they could not find it, they gave up.
Who would have thought that it would die in such a place today, and from the way it was neatly cut in half from the middle, it was not hard to tell who did it. It seemed that this guy was attracted by the magical girl set and wanted to ambush Wu Yejin from the bottom of the sea, but it did not expect to run into Xu Shenxing.
"Hmph, don't misunderstand, I just happen to want to eat octopus." Xu Shenxing saw the parrot looking at the monster's corpse, and could not help but snort coldly, turned around and walked into the village.
"Eh? Then you don't want to eat? "
"I suddenly lost my appetite." Xu Shenxing did not turn around. "And there is no material for octopus here."
"Let me tell you, although the giant tortoise itself is not that delicious, the parasites on its body are similar to the eight-eyed eel in both appearance and taste. They are very delicious, and are especially suitable for yashu and barbecue." The parrot used its small claws to point at the giant tortoise's corpse.
"Can you eat parasites?" Xu Shenxing replied casually.
He did not stop walking because he did not want to taste the parasites in the parrot's mouth.
"You really don't know how to enjoy life."
The parrot shook its head and sighed. Then it used a slightly more serious voice to talk to Xu Shenxing, who only looked at it from the back. "Also, according to Miss Wu Ye's temperament, she must have practiced until very late today. She will definitely oversleep tomorrow. I don't know what you are in a hurry about, but if it is possible, can you leave a little later tomorrow? "
Hearing the parrot's words, Xu Shenxing stopped and turned around to look at the bird.
"I wanted to ask before … From the story that the girl told me, you don't have a special relationship with her, right? But why do I feel like you are always protecting her? "
"Is it that obvious?" The parrot began to play dumb.
"Do you want me to lift some chestnuts?" Xu Shenxing narrowed his eyes and stared at the parrot.
Although the parrot did it secretly, Zhang Zian's observation skills were not bad, and he still found some evidence.
"Well, as expected of you. You are much more sensitive than ordinary people." Seeing that Xu Shenxing's expression did not seem to be joking, the parrot could only raise its wings and surrender. Speaking of Wu Yejin, its expression became gentler. "If I must say, this child's life was messed up by me. If it weren't for me, she would still be living an ordinary and happy life. So when I face her, I always feel a little guilty … And even if it weren't for this relationship, she is still a child worthy of my life. "
Xu Shenxing always felt that the parrot's words had a hidden meaning.
Unfortunately, analyzing the deep meaning of other people's words was not his strong point. This made Xu Shenxing miss his friends in the other world. Presumably, the guy who was immersed in palace politics all year round could easily analyze the parrot's meaning.
Xu Shenxing had always followed the excellent principle of thinking about things that he did not understand.
So he turned around and continued to walk towards the village.
After two steps, he stopped, as if he suddenly remembered something, and said, "Because it took me a lot of effort to kill that octopus, I will get up a little later tomorrow … That's all."
"Thank you very much."
The parrot bowed and thanked him.
"Don't get me wrong, I didn't do it for her."
Xu Shenxing subconsciously replied, but when he said it, he felt something was wrong.
But it was too troublesome to explain, so he simply snorted to cover up his embarrassment and quickly returned to the village.
