Zu An shook his head slightly: "They are actually dead, but the death energy has transformed their bodies to make them appear to be still alive and retain the so-called vitality."
Upon hearing his words, the Mermaid Queen suddenly felt her heart sink.
Seeing these brave defenders die like this made her feel extremely sad.
"But I can use secret techniques to seal them. When they are rescued in the future, they can be reincarnated in the most suitable place." Zu An said solemnly.
"Reincarnation?" The Mermaid Queen was startled, "Is there really reincarnation in the world, and how can it be controlled by humans?"
"There will be a solution in later generations. I have seen them in later generations." Naturally, Zu An didn't want to see such warriors die quietly, so he wanted to find a better future for them.
It's a pity that in this world, he has lost contact with the Netherworld. If he let them die completely now, he is not sure where these people can be reincarnated.
Especially now that the Netherworld is occupied by the "monsters" they have suppressed for countless years, the other party will probably not give these old enemies a good home.
So he can only wait until the future, after he takes control of the Netherworld Underworld, and can properly arrange their whereabouts.
And in this way, this period of history is closed.
Hearing that he had seen these defenders in later generations, the Mermaid Queen was surprised and happy, but she no longer objected. She was only a little worried: "How to seal it?"
Zu An took out some materials from the glass orb: "Please help me..."
He collected some special materials from the treasure house of the demon world, plus the materials he brought with him from the practice world before leaving, which was enough for him to perform.
Thinking of the state of the stone carvings of these garrison guards in later generations, there happens to be a sealing method in the "Bao Pu Zhen Jing" that can achieve a similar effect.
In the past, a lot of the knowledge in this book was too advanced, and he always seemed to understand it. However, after supplementing the knowledge of formations in the demon world, he has now mastered the various formations recorded in it.
The Mermaid Queen moved very quickly, placing various materials and formation flags in specific places under his command.
When Zu An saw that it was almost done, he protected her behind him, then took out the formation disk and began to set up the formation. One after another obscure words came out of his mouth, and his hands flew up and down on the formation disk.
Every few breaths, a ray of clear light would fall on the defenders.
The frantic defenders gradually calmed down, and even the pain of connecting became a little less painful.
The Mermaid Queen looked at Zu An's focused look while setting up the formation, her eyes full of tenderness.
The man looks really handsome when he is serious.
In the past, it was true that men had deliberately shown themselves to be serious about their work in front of her, but for some reason, every time they saw her, there was no emotion in their hearts, and instead they felt like laughing.
But this man was completely different. She felt that it was a pleasing thing for her to keep looking at him like this.
Handsome, highly educated, knowledgeable, funny, honest and kind...
Now she actually knows the most profound formation technique in the world. She never thought that a man could gather so many advantages in his life.
She was a little jealous of the descendant of the mermaid clan. Why did she meet this man first?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but darken her face, "I was born before you were born, but I am already old when you were born."
I don't know how long it took, but Zu An put the array away: "It's finally fine."
At this time, the previously manic and turbulent defenders had all calmed down - it was impossible not to be quiet. Their bodies seemed to be covered with layers of stone, and everyone turned into stone statues.
Zu An said to the numerous stone statues: "You all will sleep for a while. When you feel the aura of demon invasion in the future, you will break out of the ground. Then someone destined to save you will be there."
Those stone statues seemed to understand his words, and they all knelt down and saluted him one after another, then slowly walked into the darkness in the distance and disappeared completely.
"Is the destined person you are talking about yourself?" The Mermaid Queen pursed her lips and smiled. She noticed that he was sweating profusely and subconsciously took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his face.
Feeling the other person's body stiffen, the Mermaid Queen also realized that her behavior seemed a bit too intimate.
But she only hesitated for a second and continued wiping.
She knew that the other person came from the future, and every time they met might be a farewell, so how could she have so many worries.
Zu An was also a little embarrassed. Smelling the faint fragrance coming from the other person's body and seeing that alluring face so close, Zu An felt as shy as a virgin.
He had no choice but to break the charming atmosphere with a voice: "Well, in the end, it was me who finally let them rest in peace."
The Mermaid Queen took back the handkerchief, and she also understood the principle of stopping at the point: "Hey, why can you find a way to let them rest in peace in the future, but not now?"
"First of all, I have abilities that I will only acquire in later generations, and secondly, this coincides with the original development of history."
Zu An was also feeling emotional. He originally thought that those stone sculptures were some martyrs of the ancient Sea Clan, but he didn't expect that he was the one who directed all of this in the end.
The Mermaid Queen was thoughtful. This is how history developed, so he would subconsciously do what he did to conform to history, so...
Zu An took the opportunity to distance himself from her, then controlled the formation disk again, and formation flags fell one after another near the distant formation.
The light of the large array gradually became brighter, no longer as flickering as before, as if it would go out at any time.
Zu An put away the formation disk: "I have temporarily strengthened it. After I find out the situation inside, I will notify the Sea Clan to completely repair these formations."
"Are you going to go deeper?" The Mermaid Queen heard his subtext.
Zu An hummed, looking at the death aura under the formation that was as thick as a substance, he had many doubts that could only be solved by going there in person.
"But it's too dangerous." The Mermaid Queen was worried. The death aura below was so thick that it no longer looked like gas, but like a viscous liquid.
"It doesn't matter, I'm not afraid of death." Zu An paused, "It's you, the next road is not suitable for you, especially the real eye of the sea, which does not allow living creatures from the outside world to pass through, and I can't.
I’ll take you with me, so I’ll send you up first.”
The Mermaid Queen shook her head: "No, I'm waiting for you here, just in case other beings come to destroy this formation."
Now that the formation has been temporarily repaired, there is no dead air approaching here, and the former defenders are not far away, so she feels relieved.
At the same time, I was secretly surprised. It seemed that the other party actually knew what was going on in Haiyan?
Zu An hesitated for a moment, but felt that what the other party said was reasonable, so he took out some amulets and array disks and handed them to the other party: "Then wait for me here. If you don't see me coming back in three days, you can
Activate this array, and it will protect you back."
"Be careful along the way!" The Mermaid Queen secretly thought, if you can't come back, what's the point of me going back.
Looking at the other party's beautiful and familiar eyes, Zu An felt a little dazed, as if he had said goodbye to Shang Liuyu in the Tomb of Ten Thousand Dragons.
He nodded, waved his hand behind his back and continued walking towards the sea eye under the formation.
At this time, the Mermaid Queen suddenly shouted: "My name is Gong Suyin, what is your name?"
As if worried that he would refuse, she immediately said: "In case you really can't come back, I don't want to not even know who you are."
Thinking of that situation, she felt sad, and her beautiful eyes shed a few tears.
Although Zu An turned his back to her, he could still see her tears turning into pearls, and he couldn't help but feel soft in his heart: "My name is Zu An."
"Zu An..." The Mermaid Queen was surprised and happy. She never expected that the other party would actually tell her.
She kept thinking silently in her mind, fearing that she would forget the name and look up again, only to find that the other person had disappeared.
