Chapter 215: The Immortal Residence Map

After browsing through the kitchen, the crowd arrived at the ship’s largest cabin hall. Even though there was no one aboard the ship, every cabin was clean and tidy, but no one suggested entering one alone.
Jiang Xiapeng was the first to speak, ”Friends, we have already searched through this ship, and determined that there aren't any forms of dangers and there are even many individual rooms. Even though the appearance of this ship is a little peculiar, I still that it is not impossible. Imagine, this ship may have docked on some small island as the passengers alighted to explore the island. Then, this ship got carried away by the waves…”
Jiang Xiapeng, himself, was unable to continue any further. The possibility of what he said was extremely low, so low that it was marginally next to impossible.
”Amitabha,Old Na thinks that this ship has been intentionally sent into the Sky Sea.” The laughing monk said with a stern expression.
”Laughing monk, when you speak, can you consider some logic and probabilities. Just now, even though Brother Jiang’s story seems close to impossible, at least there was a slight possibility. But what you're saying, is simply too absurd. Do you that person's brain is damaged? What purpose would he have in sending this huge, empty ship into the Sky Sea?” The black faced burly Pu Qian snorted and said.
The laughing monk stared at Pu Qian in shock, ”Purpose? Naturally, it's to scare us out of our wits ah. Don't tell me you aren't scared? Think about it, if that person who sent this ship into the Sky Sea sees our shocked and cautious appearances, wouldn't he get a good laugh out of it?”
Mo Wuji suddenly felt that this monk was a troll; he appeared to have an expression of seriousness, and acted as though he was narrating the truth, when it was complete bullsh*t.
Pu Qian stared speechlessly at the monk, before saying, ”That's right, it gave me a good scare.”
The monk clapped his hands together and said, ”See, I was right. Seems like that rascal who sent this ship has really achieved his motive. What a venomous scheme. If this Old Na sees that rascal, I will be sure to decimate his bones into tens of thousands of pieces. Praise to the Amitabha. I was wrong, I actually violated the Precept of Rage. [1] At the very most, I would decimate his bones to thousands of pieces. One should be kind and compassionate, Old Na shouldn't go any further.”
Mo Wuji suddenly voiced out to stop this monk from continuing, ”Everyone, why did all of us gather here? And why was it such a coincidence, that all of us faced a calamity at sea?”
The group instantly went silent, no one wanted to answer Mo Wuji's questions. From the looks of it, everyone had their own motives and they weren't comfortable with sharing it.
Mo Wuji directly continued, ”I came because of a sea map, this map showed the location of an immortal residence…”
The reason why Mo Wuji directly laid things out on the table was because he had long had his suspicions. The sea is large and vast, much less this boundless, endless Sky Sea? In such an unfathomably big place, everyone was able to come together. This was no simple coincidence.
”Ah…” Zhuang Yan was the first to cry out in shock, before she continued, we also found a sea map which depicted the location of an immortal residence…”
Qi Wenxuan wanted to stop Zhuang Yan, but it was already too late. Thus, he could only go along with Zhuang Yan's words, ”That's right. We did indeed came to try our luck in the Sky Sea because of this sea map.”
Everyone's face instantly revealed a strange expression. That black faced burly man suddenly threw a sea map on the floor, ”Granny’s ass, this old man has been fooled.”
Mo Wuji's gaze immediately swept across that map; he discovered that it was largely similar to the one which Jing Lengbei drew for him, but a few critical points were different. For example, the position of the immortal residence was different, and it wasn't a small difference, but a huge one. Mo Wuji believed that even if Jing Lengbei’s memory was bad, she wouldn't have gotten the position of the sea map wrong.
After the burly man threw his map out, the others started to take out their maps. As expected, all the sea maps were exactly the same.
Jiang Xiapeng said with a solemn expression, ”It looks like someone is trying to use this sea map to lure us here. As to who this someone is, or what his motive is, that is still unclear.”
Mo Wuji did not reveal his own map, nor did the others ask him for it. Things have already become clear; it wasn't important if Mo Wuji didn't take the map out.
With that said, Jiang Xiapeng suddenly recalled something as he turned to Mo Wuji and said, ”Brother Mo, how did you know that there was a problem with the sea map? Ai, where's your map?”
Mo Wuji acted as though he didn't hear Jiang Xiapeng's words as he turned to the Cu Tanzi hiding behind Gouzi and asked, ”Sister Cu Tan, when we were at the kitchen, no one else found there to be any problems, but why did you frown?”
No one expected for Mo Wuji to suddenly shoot Cu Tanzi with this question. One could say that among everyone here, Cu Tanzi was the only one that did not seem to have an existence. But because of Mo Wuji's question, everyone forgot about Jiang Xiapeng's ones.
”I, I don't know…” Cu Tanzi stuttered, seemingly at loss.
Gouzi hurried stood up and clasped his fists towards Mo Wuji, ”Dao friend Mo, my granddaughter has always been very timid. Wherever she goes, she would not have any opinions. I believe that you must have seen things wrongly.”
Mo Wuji calmly said, ”I did not see things wrongly. Sister Cu Tan, if you do not wish to speak, I naturally wouldn't force it out of you. Of course, I wouldn't stay here any more. If everyone continues to hide matters in their hearts, we wouldn't be able to cooperate properly even if we stayed together.”
”I, I…” Cu Tanzi’s voice became even more subdued.
Gouzi also seemed to feel as though Cu Tanzi had something to say, so he said in a very straightforward manner, ”Cu Tanzi, if you have something to say, just say it. We all wish to work well together here.”
