The Legendary Master’s Wife

Tiandao said that there were fishermen in Hezhen who had contacted the psychic tortoise, and even went to the site of the psychic tortoise, but no one knew who it was, so they had to find it by themselves.

There are several fishermen in the port. Some of them have just returned from the sea. They are unloading the cargo on the ship. They are all fresh shrimp and sea fish. Even low-level monsters are not called. The owners are also young. A strong man, only a skinny old man with a gauntlet is tying a boat to the shore.

The two walked to the old man.

You Xiaomo looked at the old man. The old man obviously saw them, but he ignored them.

You Xiaomo was thinking about how to speak, and the old man talked.

"If you want to borrow a boat to go to the sea, don't even think about it, the people in Hezhen will not lend you a boat to these outsiders." The old man said coldly, without even raising his head.

"We don't want to borrow a boat, we want to charter a boat." You Xiaomo thought the old man was worried that they would not pay.

The old man finally raised his head, a touch of irony appeared on the wrinkled face, and his indifferent gaze turned around them, and said, "It is not possible to rent a boat."

"Why is this?" You Xiaomo asked in surprise.

The old man looked at them with clear eyes and said, "I'm afraid that chartering a boat is just an excuse. Your purpose is to inquire about psychic turtles, right?"

You Xiaomo was surprised when he saw that he had a good look, "Why do you say that?"

"You are not the first people." The old man said slightly impatiently. "Every year, many outsiders want to go to the sea to find psychic tortoises, but many people never return after going to the sea, and occasionally only one Two are lucky to come back alive. "

You Xiaomo thought that the old people knew why they were looking for a psychic tortoise. After hearing that, he suddenly realized that he was busy and asked, "Did they find a psychic tortoise?"

"Do you think psychic turtles are so easy to find?" The old man asked, and even in his tone he laughed at the uncontrollable power of those people. In their hearts, the psychic turtles are the ancestors who blessed them. That is a sacred and inviolable saint.

"Then why are they looking for psychic mystic turtles?" You Xiaomo didn't care about the contempt in his words, but asked with interest.

"But greedy people!" The old man sniffed.

You Xiaomo nodded as if he didn't understand.

The old man saw that his attitude was not as unreasonable as those before, and his face finally eased slightly, admonishing: "You should go to the sea for the first time. The tribe lives in it, and if they are not careful, they will die. "

You Xiaomo noticed that his attitude had softened, and his eyes turned, and he immediately hit the iron and said, "The old man, in fact, we want to go out to sea is not the same as those in your mouth. This is the case. We have a friend who was injured. He can't move now, so he wanted us to help inform his people. He said his people lived in the living waters. "

The old man looked at him suspiciously, as if trying to determine if he was lying.

You Xiaomo smiled at him.

The old man's eyes moved to the expressionless Ling Xiao again.

You Xiaomo quickly pulled Ling Xiao's arm and signaled him a little.

Ling Xiao touched his nose. "Old man, let me tell you the truth. Our friend is a member of the Turtle Tribe. He was hunted down. He asked us to find a psychic turtle. If we do n’t tell it as soon as possible, They are afraid he will be in danger. "

The old man was surprised.

You Xiaomo was equally surprised, and Ling Xiao wouldn't say anything.

"Is this true?" A flash of anxiety flashed across the old man's face.

Ling Xiao glanced at Xiaomo, who immediately gave Mo Jing the brand they gave them, and handed it to him regardless of whether the old man could not understand it. . "

The old man took the sign, flashed a light flash in his eyes, and returned it to them five seconds later, he said uncertainly: "Old man, I don't know this thing, but it doesn't look like you are lying, I believe you once . "

You Xiaomo rejoiced, "That's great, can you lend us the boat now?"

The old man shook his head. "The boats in Hezhen can only travel near the port. It is impossible to go up to the sea. It won't be long before they are overturned by the waves."

"What then?"

"Your luck is good. Tonight, there are two big merchant ships going to the whale island. You can go with them to the whale island and ask other people to buy or borrow a boat. The boats on the whale island are stronger than the fishing boats in Hezhen. Many. "The old man finally let loose.

"Thanks to the elderly, then we will come back in the evening." You Xiaomo thanked him, and then they left.

The old man looked at the back of the two leaving, until he couldn't see it, he hurriedly got up and went anxiously in the other direction.

After leaving the port, You Xiaomo, who couldn't hide her mind, immediately asked: "Ling Xiao, why do you tell the old man the truth, if he was leaked out, it might cause us trouble."

"That old man is not ordinary." Ling Xiao explained.

You Xiaomo was surprised, "How do you know?"

Ling Xiao said, "Guess."

You Xiaomo: "..." teased me.

Ling Xiao was not wrong. He did guess at the beginning, but after seeing the reaction of the old man, he had determined that the old man was not an ordinary fisherman. According to his guess, the old man is likely to be a spy arranged by the psychic tortoise.

The reason why the elderly did not immediately identify themselves after hearing their words was that they probably did not fully believe their words, and proactively arranged for them to take a commercial boat ride, probably to test them, so no matter whether the elderly were spies of the psychic tortoise, It's better to do what he says than to look for them blindly.

In the evening, the two appeared on time at the port.

There are only two rows of small fishing boats in the port during the day, and two large merchant ships are added to the shore at night, almost dozens of times the size of the small fishing boats.

The port is also lively, with a group of people carrying cargo up and down there.

The two walked to the harbor. The old man was also there during the day. He was directing a group of fishermen to move the goods. It seemed that he was not in a small position in Hezhen.

Until the two approached, the old man noticed them, "You wait a moment."

You Xiaomo curiously looked at the goods they loaded on the ship. They were common things on land, such as spices, rouge and other daily necessities. It surprised him. The target of the merchant ship transaction seemed to be monsters. The monsters also liked these. thing?

Ling Xiao saw his doubts, "The monsters have been living in the water or on the island. Such human-use things are rarely seen naturally, and it is normal to be interested."

Although the fishermen in Hezhen often go to sea, they do not depend on fishing. These two merchant ships are their real guarantee of life. They go to the sea once a month, and the time is often fixed, sometimes in the morning, sometimes At noon, it mainly depends on the situation at sea, so the old talents persuade Xiaomo and Ling Xiao to be lucky. If they miss today, they will have to wait for the next month.

By the time both ships' cargo was loaded, it was out of date.

The old man wiped the sweat from his forehead and walked to You Xiaomo and Ling Xiao. "I have to tell two people that the sea merchants are not smooth sailing. In addition to the storms and currents, there is another kind of pirates. They run wild. , Often robbed the past merchant ships, so I hope that the two can help look after one or two. "

"Isn't the living water world the site of psychic mystic turtles, why can there be pirates?" You Xiaomo asked inconceivably.

The old man said, "It's true, but there are always some pirates who take the chance to commit crimes. Although they are guarded by the Xuangui clan, they cannot be guarded day and night."

Makes sense!

"If we really encounter a pirate, we will not sit idly by then." You Xiaomo promised.

The old man nodded with satisfaction, and immediately got them on board.

Although merchant ships are not the gorgeous luxury ships, they are very strong and sturdy. Villagers in Hezhen had spent a lot of energy to build two ships. Now it has been six years and the merchant ships are still well maintained.

In addition to moving cargo sailors, there are also a few foreigners who want to go out to sea like them. The strength seems to be good. The old people arranged them in a cabin.

You Xiaomo finally knew why he knew that there were pirates at sea, and merchant ships in Hezhen still sailed to the sea once a month. It turned out that they would choose some foreigners who wanted to go out to the sea as accompanying bodyguards.

You Xiaomo and Ling Xiao live in a room, the others are one person and one room.

The room was very small, there was only one bed, and then there was nothing. There were no tables, chairs, cupboards or cups for drinking.

You Xiaomo crawled to the bed and lay down, and after a while he got up again. The bed was really hard, and even a quilt was sacked.

"Too stingy!"

You Xiaomo complained indignantly.

He responded with Ling Xiao's mockery, "You think everyone is sleeping like you, and you need to cover your quilt at night, and it is not a fragile human. This bed is not ready to sleep."

Foreigners who dare to go to the sea are generally either cultivators or Danshi, so they do not need to sleep at night, and the bed is only used for meditation.

You Xiaomo guilty and looked away.

When the time was up, the two merchant ships began to sail into the sea. At first, it was just like on flat ground, but the merchant ships left the sea where the fishermen usually moved. The sea water suddenly surged, and the hull slightly moved.

You Xiaomo could feel the ship shaking in the cabin, even the merchant ships. No wonder the old man would not let them go out to the sea by boat, for fear that the boat would not disintegrate just after arriving in this area.

Before boarding the ship, the old man told them a few things to note.

Merchant ships provide them with rooms to live in, but they will not provide any food, so they either do not eat, or prepare their own, or pay for it, and the chef will cook for them.

It usually takes about ten days from Hezhen to Whale Island. If you happen to encounter the current, it won't take you five days to reach it. This time, the people in Hezhen obviously have calculated it.

You Xiaomo and Ling Xiao came out of the cabin, and the sea was very dark. Apart from the bright light from the merchant ship, it was dark and quiet all around.

The sailors had not rested, one by one in their posts, staring at the sea with serious expressions, until the captain gave orders, they started to move, the hull began to move slowly to the right, and after ten seconds, the ship was moving The speed has increased significantly.

You Xiaomo only felt that the boat was shaking, and then the two merchant ships moved forward as quickly as the motors were installed, and could not help exclaiming.

In his last life, he did not sail out to the sea. In winter and summer vacations, Youbai liked to catch him and play with you, but the oil tankers at that time were not the same as the shipmen who rely on manual labor. Vogue ship in the sea.

"They are all sailors who have experienced countless winds and waves, and they have already learned the habits of this sea. Unless they are artificial, they will soon reach Whale Island," Ling Xiao explained.

"But it still takes several days to arrive."

You Xiaomo lay on the railing, staring at the sparkling water bored.

If you use flying, it does n’t take five days at their speed. The only regret is that they do n’t know where the whale island is, and they also rely on the elderly to help them find the psychic mystic turtles. .
