    "What are the uses of fish scales?" Lao Wu asked.

    "You can try to find out the sea area it belongs to." Mo Wen said casually.

    At the end of the fourth watch, the two came to the Zhendong seaside. The coast stretched north and south as far as the eye could see. Mo Wen soared up and looked around. After landing, he headed north. A few months would allow the skin and flesh to rot, but not the huge fish.  bone.

    Out of awe and fear, the people in the town stayed away from this area. Most of the fish bones were there, but very few fish scales remained. The reason was that there had been several big tides before, and most of the fish scales sank with the water.  sea.

    From the Bund of the coast, Mo Wen found a few remaining fish scales. The fish scales were the size of a palm and were red in color. Because the strange fish had been dead for so long, the spiritual energy in the scales had been exhausted, making it impossible to perceive the five elements.  It can only be tested with talismans, the fire talisman is sacrificed, the fish scales are thrown in, and the flames explode.

    "Sir, which sea is it from?" Lao Wu asked.

    "The East China Sea is wood, and the South China Sea is fire. This method cannot determine the ownership of this strange fish." Mo Wen shook his head and said, looking around again, and then walked towards the area where the huge skull of the strange fish was.

    The head of the strange fish was almost as tall as a human being. Mo Wen walked closer and put his hand on it, and a subtle warmth spread from the fish bones.

    "Our previous inference was correct, it came from the South China Sea." Mo Wen said. The water temperature in the South China Sea is much higher than that of the East China Sea, and the creatures in the South China Sea also contain more Yang energy than those in the East China Sea.

    "Master, is there any inner elixir in its head?" Lao Wu tilted his head and looked inward from the big fish's eye sockets.

    "There is no inner elixir in its body." Mo Wen shook his head and said.

    "What to do now?" Lao Wu yawned.

    Mo Wen didn't answer when he heard the words, turned around and walked back. At the same time, he was thinking about what to do in his mind. After a while, he stopped and turned back to Lao Wu and said, "Go back to the Taoist temple and bring some purple talismans. On the way back, take the road.  In Bishuitan, go to the Thousand Years Stone House and bring the long sword with the missing guard in the northeast corner."

    "Okay. Anything else?" Lao Wu nodded in agreement.

    "By the way, let me tell Mu Qing that I have decided to take a concubine for you. See if she is willing. If she is not willing, let's worry about it." Mo Wen said, according to the rules at this time, a man should inform his wife in advance when taking a concubine.  This is respect for the knot.

    "Okay, I'll leave as soon as it's dark." Lao Wu nodded in agreement, took off his robe and turned to the west.

    Mo Wen returned to the inn alone, entered through the window, returned to the bed and closed his eyes for a nap.

    The owner of the Zhao family was a bit scheming. He did not show off his high status like ordinary farmers. He did not tell outsiders that Mo Wen was here. He just treated Mo Wen with courtesy, food and drinks, and took good care of him.

    In the afternoon, Lao Wu returned and brought back a bundle of purple talismans and a long sword. Mo Wen put the purple talisman in the talisman box, picked up the long sword and looked at it carefully.

    "Has Chitose come back?" Mo Wen asked casually. Chitose has been living alone for many years. In his spare time, he likes to look for sunken objects under the water. The upper reaches of the area where Bishuitan is located have fast currents, but the water slows down in the Bishuitan area. Therefore, Chitose's stone house  There is a rich collection inside. This long sword has been sunk underwater for many years. Its decoration has been worn away by quicksand, and one of the bronze guard is also damaged. Like the black sword, it is an item with no trace of its origin.

    "No, I wrote my name on the wall." Lao Wu said proudly.

    ¡°It¡¯s really rare to be able to write down your own name.¡± Mo Wen¡¯s words were filled with ridicule.

    Lao Wu didn¡¯t hear Mo Wen¡¯s teasing, so he just thought he was sincerely praising him, chuckled twice, and took a glass of water.

    Mo Wen raised his hand and pulled the sword out of its scabbard. The long sword was about three feet long. The sheath was green and mottled with pits. It should be a copper scabbard. The same was true for the hand guard, but the blade was green with a hint of blue. It must have been a copper scabbard.  It is made of fine steel mixed with black iron. Judging from the style of the sword, this sword should have come from the Yin and Shang Dynasties. At that time, there was copper but no iron. Therefore, this sword should be considered a rare weapon at that time. The only flaw is that the black iron is included.  There are too few, so they are a little less transcendent and noble compared to the famous divine weapons.

    "Master, are you ready to take action?" Lao Wu put down his water glass and made a chopping gesture.

    "Mu Qing, are you still willing?" Mo Wen did not answer Lao Wu's question. He was still in doubt whether to take action or not. He was looking for weapons to prevent unexpected events. Talismans have their own uses, and weapons have their own uses.

    "Why don't you want to do that? Isn't it nice to have more than one person talking?" Lao Wu answered casually.

    "Master, how are you going to deal with this matter?" Lao Wu was suspicious and kept asking.

    "It's hard to say at this point." Mo Wen returned the sword to its sheath, "Go and call the shop owner."

    When Lao Wu heard the words, he turned around and walked out. After a while, the shopkeeper came, but Lao Wu didn't come back.

    "What are you calling me for?" Shopkeeper Zhao saluted Mo Wen after entering the door.

      "I have a kind person to lead the way. I want to meet the local promise here." Mo Wenchong said to the owner Zhao.

    The latter had been anxious for a whole day. Hearing Mo Wen's words, he knew he was going to take action, so he hurriedly led the way. After Mo Wen went out, he didn't see Lao Wu and didn't call out. No need to ask, he must have gone to talk to Zhao Yingying.

    Xiang Yue is the steward of the town. Xiang Yue¡¯s surname here is Zhou. He is an old man in his sixties. Seeing that Mo Wen is not old, he looks down upon him a little and thinks that he is here to ask for food and cheat money. His attitude  Very cold.

    Shopkeeper Zhao had no choice but to explain his identity. How could Zhou Xiang believe him? "Zhao Er, you are not young anymore. You should know that hearing is false and seeing is believing."

    Shopkeeper Zhao was very embarrassed when he heard this and turned to look at Mo Wen.  The silent intention was to ask Mo Wen to demonstrate the magical method he used yesterday.

    "I never thought that Mo Wen didn't show his skills, but turned around and left. Taoism is different from street acrobatics. How can it be revealed at will because of others' ridicule and provocation?"

    "Take Pindao to see the owner of the house in the west of the town." Mo Wenchong said to the owner Zhao who followed him out.

    When Shopkeeper Zhao saw that Mo Wen looked normal, he felt relieved and turned around to lead the way.

    The landlord lost his house and was staying at a relative's house. When he arrived at the door, Mo Wen did not go in. Instead, he asked shopkeeper Zhao to come in and invite the man out, and the three of them went to the abandoned house together.

    Arriving in front of the abandoned house, Mo Wen asked the middle-aged homeowner, "When did the strange fish land that day? Where was its head and tail when it landed?"

    Hearing Mo Wen¡¯s words, the homeowner raised his hand and pointed at the pile of ruins, ¡°Replying to Changwen, it was around the second watch. When it landed, its tail was in the north and its head was in the south. It crushed the west house, the pig house and the woodshed.¡±

    "Did the strange fish turn over and struggle after landing?" Mo Wen asked again.

    "No, when it hit the ground, the sound was huge and the force was very heavy. It knocked it down and passed out. When we carried it eastward, only its mouth could open and close, but its body and tail could not move."  The homeowner shook his head and said.

    Mo Wen squatted down, picked up a branch and drew a fish shape on the ground, "There are several scars on it. I know where they are."

    ¡°One here, one here.¡± The homeowner pointed to the tail and body parts of the fish.

    "Does this wound hurt the heart?" Mo Wen pointed at the wound on the fish body and asked the homeowner.

    ¡°I only saw bloody flesh and blood, and I don¡¯t know if any internal organs were injured.¡± The homeowner shook his head and said.

    Mo Wen nodded and asked again, "Was it raining heavily that day? When did it start raining?"

    "It's not small, but it's not too big either," the homeowner said and looked at Shopkeeper Zhao, "It seemed to have rained after the shift that day."

    Shopkeeper Zhao nodded repeatedly when he heard this, indicating that what the landlord said was true.

    "How did the giant horseshoe crab come and go?" Mo Wen asked again.

    ¡°Every time, it¡¯s eastbound.¡± Shopkeeper Zhao said.

    "Are there any broken clothes around the fish body?" Mo Wen asked again.

    "No." The two shook their heads together.

    Mo Wen heard the words and did not ask any more questions. He carefully thought about it in his mind. The giant horseshoe crab was an aquatic creature and could not rise into the air. From this, it could be seen that it was moving in the sea when it was chasing the strange fish. Although the strange fish was alive,  It has two wings, but its skeleton is still an aquatic skeleton, which shows that its flying ability is not very strong.

    If both sides run and chase each other, if they can't open a large distance, the distance between the two sides should be between one hundred and three hundred miles. If it is less than one hundred miles, the giant horseshoe crab can accurately detect it with its alien instinct.  Go to the location of the monster and it will follow after it lands.  If it were more than three hundred miles away, the giant horseshoe crab would completely lose the clues to the strange fish, and it would be impossible to find this place on the huge beach and dig up its body.

    "The gap of two to three hundred miles can be reached in a quarter of an hour at most by the giant horseshoe crab rushing in the sea. There is no doubt that the strange fish hid the ruler wood in this short quarter of an hour.  It was not prepared to hide the ruler wood before that time. Although it was injured at that time, it was not injured to death. Its death was caused by the rain. The rainwater entered its lungs through its wound, causing it to  The injury worsened rapidly, which made it think that it could not bring Chimu back to the South China Sea, so it could only hide in a hurry.

    The place where it hid the chimu should not be a hidden place. The giant horseshoe crab cut the strange fish into pieces and searched for the chimu. This shows that the strange fish swallowed the chimu in its belly after successfully stealing it.  It is unknown whether it can transform into a human being, but it will not transform into a human being when it is escaping, because its own cultivation will be weakened when the alien transforms into a human, and the weakening speed of the cultivation will be slower. When escaping, the monster will  The fish can only hide the ruler wood somewhere hastily; it is impossible to transform into a human and dig a hole to bury it deeply.

    "Thank you for your kindness, don't tell more people about this matter." Mo Wenchong said to the landlord

    "That's natural, that's natural." The landlord nodded in agreement, and Mo Wen and shopkeeper Zhao turned around and walked towards the inn.

    "If I can find a wooden ruler and give it to him, the world will be at peace." Shopkeeper Zhao said.

    Mo Wen smiled when he heard this. His smile had two meanings. He smiled at shopkeeper Zhao's words about peace in the world. At this time, the war between Han and Hu had already begun. The world was about to be in chaos. There would be no peace.  Shopkeeper Erxiao Zhao thought simply. He wanted to find the real ruler, but he didn't want to give it back to the giant horseshoe crab. The East China Sea belonged to Zhao's dragon vein, and its strength was connected to Zhao's Qi. He would never exchange the ruler with the giant horseshoe crab.  Returning the Dragon Clan of the East China Sea to the Dragon Clan of the South China Sea, which is in charge of the spirit of Jin State.  Being generous and tolerant does not mean that there is no closeness or distance in one's heart.

    Back at the inn, everyone was waiting for the two of them to have dinner. Mo Wen was afraid that his thoughts would be interrupted, so he didn't eat and went straight upstairs, sitting quietly and thinking about where the strange fish might have hidden the ruler wood
