Chapter 1692 We Are Friendly Forces
"Our Yinzhu City is not small, but not big either. All the neighbors are familiar with each other. Such a big thing happened, and everyone is furious. They want to seek justice from his family." The shopkeeper turned to ask the clerk, "What did your brother say?"
"I haven't seen Ah Yang these past two days." The guy shook his head. "I wanted to ask him, but I couldn't find him. It's really strange. He always hangs around in front of us, but when he should show up, he disappears."
After all, there was still a mission to be accomplished. After all, He Lingchuan and the others wiped their mouths and stood up:
"Boss, get some more dry food."
Yinzhu Island is close to the sea and fishermen often go out to sea. Once on the boat, they stay for ten days or half a month, so they have to bring staple food. Therefore, dry food is also called fisherman's rice. It is a coarse steamed bun made of barley flour and flax seeds. It is cut in the middle and you can put whatever you like in it. Everyone packed up the shallow pit barbecue that they had not finished eating as fillings, and then took more than a dozen bags of pork kidney biscuits and small sugar biscuits.
Pork Kidney Biscuits do not really have pork kidneys, but they are shaped very similarly. They taste fragrant and sweet, and you can sip them and they melt in your mouth.
Wan Qiliang laughed and said, "This place has both Kidney Lake and Kidney Cakes, so why are they so against kidneys?"
Everyone took their dry food and clean water and set off, passing through the streets and seeing the hustle and bustle along the way.
The shopkeeper just said that the pier and fishing port are usually quite deserted, but today the sea is open and thousands of boats are racing.
Dong Rui muttered as he walked, "I thought this Silver Pearl Island was some kind of hidden danger, but when I came up here, I found it's so ordinary. It's no different from other islands."
There are actually civilians on Yinzhu Island, as well as a fishing port, which is very similar to the Yangshan Islands.
This is the territory of the Mirage Immortal! Before he came in, he thought the island was full of strange things and dangers, and that if he took a wrong step, he would be doomed. But he didn't know that the island was full of living people, all civilians...
It's all life!
It was completely different from what he imagined.
"Don't take it lightly." Aunt Zhu's words were transmitted to the two of them through the eyeball spider. "My sister's little follower repeatedly reminded us that a good mirage would never alert you at the first moment, but would help you eliminate your vigilance and make you think you are safe."
If you attack the enemy when they are unprepared, your success rate will greatly increase.
The Zhu Erniang's little follower it was referring to was, of course, the little mirage monster.
The mirage demon followed Zhu Erniang all the way from the Demon's Nest Swamp, never leaving her side, and finally settled in the Yangshan Islands.
Dong Rui sighed: "It would be great if it came here with us, it could help a lot."
They are all mirage monsters, so their tactics should be similar.
"It is too inexperienced to see through Qian Huan's tricks, or it must be that there are some traps that it cannot see through. If you believe in it, you will be misled." Aunt Zhu has a deep understanding of fighting. "Just like you and He Xiaozi are both human beings, do you fight in the same way and use the same tricks?"
One controls a demon puppet, the other practices martial arts to gain enlightenment, of course they are different.
Yes, "Mirage Monster" is just a general term. I heard that there are many different types of this monster race, and the differences between individuals can be huge. Dong Rui scratched his head: "By the way, you live on Pansi Island all day, have you ever seen what a little follower looks like?"
"No." Aunt Zhu said seriously, "It's only good to my sister. When it sees me, it's like it's seen a ghost."
He Lingchuan was also thinking: "Before I left the island, the mirage demon repeatedly reminded me that once I entered the Upside-Down Sea, I must remember one sentence: When the truth becomes false, the false becomes true."
Dong Rui was dissatisfied: "This sentence itself is difficult to understand, okay?"
He Lingchuan agreed: "We have to look at it in light of the actual situation."
This is the difficulty of this trip.
Dong Rui asked him again: "So what are we doing?"
"Just like the original plan, wait." After finally leaving the fishing port, He Lingchuan stretched his body and said, "Let the other side come to us first. We are friendly forces, what are we afraid of?"
……
offshore.
More than a hundred small boats actually came from the direction of Yinzhu Island. Their styles and paint colors were completely different from the port from which Bai Ziqi's fleet set out.
The fishermen on the boat were happily picking fish.
The storm just now hit the sky, and countless seafood was smashed into the water, some dead, some fainted. It was a good opportunity for humans to go out to sea and pick up some bargains.
It’s very fast. I can pick up two baskets in fifteen minutes.
Seeing them skillfully occupying the territory and casting the nets, and seeing them all smiling happily as they picked up the fish, you can tell that they have done this more than once or twice.
However, they were very surprised to see Bai Ziqi's fleet. Two brave fishermen rowed their boats closer and shouted:
"who are you?"
There is no problem with language communication.
Bai Ziqi glanced at them, casually raised a mirror to shine on them, and then said: "These two are human beings."
If you want to adventure into Master Qianhuan’s territory, you must have the ability to distinguish true from false.
He nodded to Bai Shiqi, who immediately stood halfway up the boat and said to them, "We are ocean-going merchants, departing from Beigang to the Kingdom of Fuli. We encountered a superstorm on the way and thought we would be crushed to pieces, but suddenly the wind and the sea calmed down, and then we saw this island and you... What is that island in front?"
"Silver Pearl Island, also known as Storm Island."
Bai Shiqi shook his head blankly: "Never heard of it!"
"Storm Island only follows the storms. Very few people have been here. Of course you haven't heard of it." The two boatmen looked proud, but then asked, "Did you transport a lot of goods?"
"Yes, the cabin is full of goods." Bai Shiqi took out some silver and waved it in front of them. "Will you accept this? I just want to ask a few questions."
He was too lazy to use his fists if he could just ask questions properly. It was better to avoid trouble when entering Qianhuan's territory.
The two boatmen looked at each other and nodded: "We accept it, we accept it. Why not accept it if we have silver? Occasionally, foreign seafarers come in and trade with us using silver."
Bai Shiqi invited them to get on board, but the two men did not dare to do so, fearing that they would be beaten up after getting on board.
So Bai Shiqi jumped directly onto the bow of their boat and started the question-and-answer mode.
After a while, he returned to the boat, and the two men took the silver and rowed away to continue fishing.
"Master Dushi, they are all residents of Silver Pearl Island. They usually farm and fish during the slack season. The storm wall is only opened once every five years, but there is sunlight in the sky during normal times, so their production and work schedule is not affected."
Bai Ziqi nodded. Bai Shiqi became more and more astute and could ask about every detail.
"I asked if there was a temple of the Sea God on the island. We wanted to go there to pray for good luck. They said that the Wind God and his disciples' immortal residence is on this mountain. Their tone was very pious! Oh, the Wind God is Qianhuan Zhenren." On the sand table, the mountains of the Silver Pearl Main Island were rolling. Bai Shiqi pointed to the highest peak and said, "This is Shilong Peak. According to legend, the immortal lives on the top of the peak, but these two fishermen have never been there. Because this place is guarded by the Huan Sect, no one is allowed to approach. Only the servants designated by the Huan Sect can go up there."
The Huan Sect is the disciple of the True Man Qianhuan.
