Chapter 65 Going to the Sea
Wang Fishing Village is really small, just on a delta at the mouth of a river. This land is usually fertile, but they do not make a living from farming.
For fishermen by the sea, the vast Eastern Sea is a treasure.
After many years of fishing life, the people of Wangyu Village built two large boats from zero to one, and the young men of the village were assigned to two boats to go out to sea in turn.
These big boats allow them to go farther, fish more, and live better than other fishing villages.
But when you go to sea, the risk will increase accordingly.
The Eastern Sea isn’t just about treasures, it’s also full of weirdness.
As everyone knows, there are far more living creatures in the sea than on land. Correspondingly, there are more evil spirits in the sea.
And like this everlasting ocean, the evil in the deep sea is even older and mysterious.
This one happened in Xiaoxiaowang fishing village, maybe just one hair from nine oxen.
But for the people in this village, it is the collapse of nearly half of the families.
So Li Chu took this matter very seriously.
After arriving at Wangyu Village, I saw the old village chief and a group of villagers guarding here early.
As soon as the boat docked, it was warmly welcomed by the villagers.
The old village chief took the lead, and the villagers in the back eagerly stepped forward to shake hands with Li Chu, especially the big girls and little wives in the village.
It is said that their husbands and sons were turned into water monkeys, so I hope Li Chu can save them.
In order to appease their emotions, Li Chu gave them one after another comfort.
But holding hands, more girls ran out of the village.
Li Chu couldn’t help asking the old village chief: “Have so many people’s husbands turned into water monkeys?”
The old village chief coughed a few times with a blushing face. With a sound, all the girls who heard the wind from behind drove away.
Originally, the village also prepared a seafood feast and wanted to entertain their entire group.
Li Chu is a little excited about this.
After the little koi came to Cloud Heart Temple, there was an extra rule in the view.
No fish…
Not even fish balls in the hot pot.
So in Yuhang Town, which is adjacent to the Eastern Sea, their master and disciple have not eaten fish for a long time.
But think about the fact that before the little koi arrive, they have to plot against half a month for a meat dish.
Without her, maybe there would be no Cloud Heart Temple, which is flourishing today, so I would be relieved.
Li Chu can actually understand this. After any creature has spirituality, it may not see its own kind being placed on the dining table.
But it also gave him a wake-up call.
The fox girl is pretty good. Humans don’t have the habit of eating fox meat.
In the future, they can’t accept some demon slaves like pigs, cows, and sheep. Otherwise, their Taoist temples will simply be changed to temples.
But.
Considering the importance of saving people, Li Chu decided to take a break from eating seafood and go to see the water monkey first.
The old village chief invited them graciously. Seeing Li Chu’s firm attitude, he had to take them to a pond outside the village first.
Because the water monkeys can’t stay out of the water for long, they were simply placed in a pond.
Outside the pond, the old village chief sighed: “Ai, a good boat of sailors has become such a monster…”
Sighed.
This pond is not large, and there are fences around it, which should be temporarily tied and very loose. There were more than a dozen young villagers around, holding red tassel spears and watching.
It shows that the old village chief is still taking precautions, for fear that these water monkeys will do anything wrong.
But it should be the case, after all, it is related to evil.
There are thirty or fifty water monkeys flapping in the pond, which seems a little crowded, but those water monkeys seem very happy, you chase me back and forth, and occasionally go ashore and climb up and down beside the big tree , sometimes an upside-down golden hook, sometimes a monkey fishing for the moon.
As for the appearance, it is the same as what Wang Longqi described.
The size and posture are really similar to the wild monkeys on the mountain. The only difference is that the water monkeys have dark azure scales all over their bodies, and their tails appear to be more pointed and stronger, which may make them easier to swim.
Wang Longqi sighed: “They are quite entertaining, and they are still playing here.”
The old village chief sighed: “Ai, who cares about normal people? How can they be so big? When they first came back, they were still sad, and they all remembered their identities. But now they look more and more like real animals. I’m afraid, after a while, they will completely forget who they are. Human!”
Li Chu’s eyes were good, and at a glance, he saw a water monkey on the shore, which was different from other water monkeys.
It looked at the water with a sad expression and stood with its claws on its back.
“That’s just what’s going on? It doesn’t seem to be the same as the other one.” Li Chu asked.
“It’s called Wu Er, and it’s the only person on the boat who can read.” The old village chief said, “Thanks to him, we can know what happened to them in such detail.”
Li Chu asked again: “How did he get hurt?”
The old village chief laughed and asked: “Little Daoist Priest, just look at it like this, you can recognize what’s wrong with these water monkeys. Are they the same?”
Li Chu glanced and shook his head: “No.”
“Yes, they all look the same, so we can’t tell who is who. They slept with those maids on the small island, and the mother-in-law knew, and naturally couldn’t spare them.”
“But I couldn’t recognize which one was my man, so I had to endure it first. “
“But Wu Er is different. He knows words, so he stood up to communicate with us first, and finished talking about the island. His mother-in-law knew this must be him, and the first one broke out, copying He picked up a rolling pin and rushed over… If we hadn’t stopped him, he wouldn’t have a good scale now…”
“pu.” Wang Longqi couldn’t help laughing, and said leisurely: “Knowledge changes destiny–“
Li Chu specially took a look at it with Mind Eye Technique.
There is nothing special about the Qi of these water monkeys, and they look no different from ordinary wild beasts.
If you have to say the difference, it may be that they have less negative emotions such as hostility, fierceness, baleful aura, etc., after all, they are the human soul in their bodies.
It was followed by a sumptuous seafood meal.
The seafood made by the fishermen may not be as delicate as the big restaurants, but they are absolutely fresh and tender, and the amount is large and full.
During the meal, Wang Longqi thoughtfully instructed: “Don’t eat too much when you get on the boat.”
Li Chu and the fox girl nodded one after another.
But when I really eat it, I don’t care so much. It’s not too much to eat a 12-minute full and barely pad your stomach, right?
Especially the fox girl, the little girl who looks soft and weak, but has an extra tail.
Who knows that she alone can eat three young brawny men, and that eating pattern is called strong wind scattering the last clouds in a good way, and a hungry dog rushing towards food in a bad way, and the surrounding villagers are stunned.
After eating, she smiled sadly, wiped her mouth gracefully, and nodded gently.
Dignified.
This meal, she successfully changed the villagers’ evaluation of herself from “actually a monster” to “as expected of a monster”.
No way, I’m used to it.
She took a peek at Li Chu and found that Li Chu was eating harder than her. But it seems so calm, so unrestrained, so uninhibited.
She also secretly said, worthy of being my master.
After eating, I boarded a big boat sent by the village, led by eight or nine experienced sailors, and set sail to the sea.
The charts along the road are all drawn by water monkeys with their claws. Although they are a little crooked, they should be pretty close. After all, they are all old fishermen, and they came back by boat before based on memory.
Soon after getting on the boat, Wang Longqi fell to the back of the boat and started vomiting.
He had the experience of going to sea before and suffered losses, so he told him in advance, and he was only 80% full.
Who would have thought it would be so bad.
What puzzled him was that Li Chu and the fox girl, who were the first to go out to sea, had no reaction at all. There, enjoying the scenery of the sea leisurely, the fox girl shouted from time to time.
Wang Longqi walked over with a pale face, and asked angrily, “Why don’t you two get seasick?”
The master and slave looked at each other, shrugged.
The eyes seem to be saying, No way No way, no one really gets seasick, right? That’s too useless!
Wang Longqi was wronged and left with a flat mouth.
About two hours later, the sailor who was watching the wind on the bow scratched his head and said, “It’s strange.”
Li Chu walked over and asked, “What’s wrong?”
The sailor said, “According to the chart, we should be there now. At least we should be in sight. I can see it, but…”
He pointed to the bare sea level ahead, and there was nothing.
Li Chu frowned, which was a bit difficult.
Could it be a Secret Realm or a movable island?
They only talked for three or two sentences, and suddenly they heard another shout from the sailor behind, “Oh—”
When I looked up, I saw the billowing dark clouds were gathering. .
the four directions clouds move!
The sailor shouts: “It’s changed—”
