Chapter 753 Set sail again
A week later, Segun Saan.
"Excuse me! The first collection of poems by the Poet of the Sea of Fire is on sale! Soothe the souls in the tide and praise all the warriors who burn themselves like fire! Recommended by everyone at Segun Literary Academy! Don't miss it! Those who are lucky enough will get a copy of the Poet of the Sea of Fire. Autographed poetry collection!”
shouted the newsboy in the street.
Normally, most people wouldn't care about such an obscure literary genre as poetry collections. They would rather read some interesting novels serialized in magazines.
But maybe it’s because of the wave that faded away just a week ago. It’s a time when everyone is mentally empty and needs to be appeased. Under this kind of publicity, they can’t help but want to buy a book and read it.
It's not expensive anyway, very cheap.
A tavern in the coastal market. Fortunately, when the sea monsters came before, they didn't even appreciate the size of the place and basically ignored it, so there was no loss.
The nearby tavern was more or less affected, so the tavern is now overcrowded.
The boss was humming a tune and reading the newspaper. He was not very busy. He generously took in a few people who had lost their jobs due to the wave and let them help manage the shop.
Maybe soon his tavern will be bigger.
Suddenly, the door of the tavern was opened amidst hurried footsteps, and the young man hurriedly ran to the front desk. Seeing this, the boss raised his head from the newspaper in his hand and raised the corner of his mouth.
"Boss! I bought it. You can't even imagine how popular Teacher Huohai's poetry collection is! The poems in it are really inspiring to me!" Cross raised the poetry collection in his hand as if to show off.
"I remember I asked you to bring me one, and I also paid you for running errands." The boss said with a smile.
"Oh, yes." Cross also reacted, opened the small package he carried with him, took out another unopened copy and handed it to his boss.
The boss took it, smiled and untied the cover, and started flipping through it gently.
"It's a pity that Teacher Huo Hai is still unwilling to come forward even if his first poetry collection is released. It's a pity. Oh, boss! The poetry collection not only contains previous poems, but also three poems that directly describe the previous waves! They are "Fire" and "Sea" ""Poetry", the newspaper described these three poems as the 'Tide Wave Trilogy', although I think the 'Fire Fire Trilogy' should be more appropriate. Forget it, it is mainly because it is easier for the public to understand!"
Cross spoke tirelessly, his face turned red and his mouth was dry as he spoke, and then he took a sip of the water handed by the boss.
The boss listened to what he said, turned the book of poems in his hand back to the title page and took a closer look. Suddenly his eyebrows rose and his smile became even wider.
"It seems that I am really lucky. That expert's divination is very good."
"What?" Cross suddenly had an ominous premonition.
"This is a signed book, thanks to you, Cross." The boss turned the book of poems over and gave Cross a look.
Cross was petrified.
Then a sea monster-like scream erupted in the tavern.
He is actually only one step away from Teacher Huohai's signature book! ?
"Boss! I'll switch with you! You're not a supporter of Teacher Huo Hai, either! Quickly switch with me!"
"Who says I'm not?"
"When I told you before, I looked down on it!"
"No way, I've always been like this. If you test me on his famous sentences, I can get it right."
"Ahhhh——"
It wasn't until Cross's screams disturbed the customers that the boss patted Cross on the shoulder: "Okay, it's just a signature. Don't look like you've lost your soul and make people laugh. By the way, Mr. Fire Sea Didn’t you also release your first novel collection?”
He was about to refute the signature, but after hearing what was said behind him, Cross immediately hesitated, and then took out a book that was larger than a book of poetry.
"As expected, you also bought it. How is the sales situation here?"
"Well, it needs brewing and fermentation. The most beautiful wines are like this. Ahem, it's always..."
The boss smiled and shook his head.
Suddenly, Cross screamed strangely again without warning, and the boss looked over in confusion.
"This novel collection is signed by the teacher!"
The boss was helpless again and didn't bother to remind him, letting him go crazy on his own.
After a while, Cross gradually calmed down, his mentality returned to normal, and he looked at his boss.
Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, the boss felt a little strange this time and said, "What's the matter? If you have anything to say, just say it. Don't waste my time."
Cross finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In addition to sending a collection of poems, I'm here to say goodbye."
The boss raised his eyebrows slightly: "Where are you going?"
"I have graduated. My previous observation model of sea monsters has been favored by the college students. However, it still needs time to be verified, but it is enough anyway. My graduation has been delayed for a long time, and I will go to sea next."
After saying that, Cross was silent for a moment.
The boss smiled and said: "It's good. You have completed your studies. You can also go to sea to get some experience. If you can't find a job after graduation, I will take you here."
"No, I'm definitely more promising than you, boss, and I can make more money with this successful model!"
Afterwards, after chatting for a while, Cross said goodbye and left.
He ran all the way on the road, something that had been delayed for a long time was finally coming to an end, and he couldn't help but feel relieved.
Along the way, he saw many new things.
The Pseudo God Religion has actually started doing charity work. No, it should be called the Holy Fire Religion now.
It is said that Emperor Siren VI wanted to promote them to the state religion after the wave, but they refused.
The Holy Fire Cult still chooses to wander among the people, and their teachings have also changed. They advocate literary creation, emphasize the role of paper and pen on human beings and even civilization, and actively participate in various public welfare activities.
It's such a big change. Not many people know exactly why they changed their temperament, but it's at least good, isn't it?
After a wave, everything seemed to be moving in a good direction, which made Cross feel happy.
Unconsciously, he seemed to pass by a group of people, but he didn't pay attention.
…
"It's dangerous to run around in the busy city." Shang Yang glanced at him and said.
As soon as he finished speaking, Wan Yi interrupted: "There are real dried fish here, do you want them?"
"Give me some time." The Demon Lord spoke immediately.
Liang Rendao glanced at him and said, "You should eat what you have on hand first and then talk."
Rhett couldn't help but laugh, thinking about what specialties to bring to his two children. Specialties from other worlds should be quite memorable.
"Woof!"
"Ah, I'm sorry, boss, our dog is disobedient, we will compensate you for this fish."
After paying the money while the boss looked at him in confusion, everyone ran off to chase the suddenly naughty Coffin.
The result is a group of people walking through the busy city together.
After playing for a long time, they boarded the Undersea Volcano from the port.
After dragging the beaten Coffin and leaving him on the deck to reflect, everyone saw Simaya, who was blowing the wind on the deck as always.
"Hello everyone, Luo Xi is inside." Simaya greeted with a smile.
Everyone said hello to each other, went into the captain's room, and found Luo Xi written on the desk.
"Luo Xi, there are a lot of people talking about you outside." Liang Rendao joked.
"I just said it would be a normal promotion. Who knew it would be so exaggerated? Is the liberal arts college so free? And even if the publishing house vigorously promotes the poetry collection, my novel collection only gave some scraps. You can't read it without looking carefully. Here!" Luo Xi looked indignant.
Everyone couldn't help laughing.
"By the way, you should be able to buy a new property and settle in Segon Saen. Why do you still want to go to sea?" Shang Yang sat down on the chair next to him and asked.
Luo Xi put down the pen in his hand and stretched out his waist: "It will take a long time for the sea to completely calm down. I can't really just stay on land and retire."
He stood up and looked through the window at the calm sea outside: "The land is lucky, but there are still countless offshore islands that have been submerged by the tide, and there may be survivors. I am the new immediate boss here. I can’t take any time off at all.”
"Just look for inspiration." Wan Yi said.
Luo Xi nodded helplessly.
"Captain, get ready!" The clothes drying rack suddenly appeared by the window, startling Luo Xi who was looking affectionately at the sea, and then was slapped away.
After gathering his mood, Luo Xi tidied up his uniform. The old uniform was damaged in the battle with Clayman, so he replaced it with a new one. The old one was not discarded. Simaya helped mend it and kept it.
"Well, thank you all for your help this time. Otherwise, the world would be a completely different scene now."
Luo Xi thanked her solemnly.
Everyone accepted this thank you without any burden.
After saying that, Luo Xi smiled again: "Then the 'Undersea Volcano', let's set sail again!"
The whole book is finished!
Just kidding (getting beaten)
Now there is really only the last bit left, the part about good humanity and the finale are being carried out together. If you have anything to say, let’s finish it!
