Chapter 260: Desperate Quest

When I got back to my room, I didn't feel sleepy at all, and after thinking about what I was going to do today, I put on my clothes, washed up, and went out of the room with my money bag. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

When leaving, the people on the first floor were huddled together to discuss when to arrive at the floating island and how to approach it by boat in order to gain the right to land on the island. Qi Jiuniang and a group of people under her did not know where they went.

"The little girl is going out?" Zhu shopkeeper pinched his handkerchief and stood behind the counter and smiled at me.

I walked over without smiling: "I wish the shopkeeper, you can deliver the news fast enough." Those are her own conjectures, I guess she took it seriously when she thought about it, and she also talked to Qi Jiuniang.

"This ...... It's just a few words mentioned during small talk. It's also a pity to sigh, and I didn't say anything else. She stirred the veil, "When the Qi family heard this, he immediately said, you should be allowed to board the floating island to fulfill your wish to grow old with that handsome man." We're ...... too."

I raised my eyebrows and leaned over to interrupt her: "Kind too? ”

"......," the shopkeeper nodded with the corner of his lips.

Alas, this woman is really. I raised my hand and pressed it on her shoulder, and said softly, "Zhu Shopkeeper, haven't you ever doubted the identity of the woman who claims to be the head of Qi's family?" Qi Jiuniang is a well-known caravan girl, how can she believe those mysterious things that sound like a lie? ”

"It's not a mystery." Zhu shopkeeper's face suddenly straightened, and he moved closer to me, and I could even see her slightly curled eyelashes, "There is indeed a worldly master living in that Golden Spirit Inn. Since my late husband passed away, I have been running this Penglai Inn alone for nearly five years. During this time, I also heard a lot about floating islands. ”

Loneliness was born in her eyes: "Someone came back from there, with a wish that had come true." I heard that the floating island was about to enter the shallows again, and I also trekked through mountains and rivers to other countries thousands of miles away. But he was not selected because of his lack of determination. I walked in the snow and climbed on the cliffs with one stick and ......one stick."

"In the end, what I got was a sentence of 'I am not allowed to go to the island unless I wish to die and cannot come true'. But the strange thing is that when I heard that, I was not much disappointed. Not even a fluctuation in mood. Isn't it weird? "I wish the shopkeeper a smile, God is mysterious.

Suddenly, she let out a long sigh of relief: "Later, on the way back, I figured it out. In fact, when I was trekking through mountains and rivers all the way, fighting with heaven and earth, and fighting with wild beasts, my heart had been revived. The despair of losing her husband at the age of 20 is slowly disappearing. ”

"Maybe it's because my mind has changed that I'm not allowed to go to the island. That island is an island where you can really fulfill your wishes, and there are indeed people living on it. As long as there is a chance to land on the island, it means that you can survive in a desperate situation, and you are willing to achieve it. ”

I asked the shopkeeper to step back a bit, but her eyes were still fixed on me.

I immersed myself in her words, and the fox's face and the tall sword slowly came to my eyes. If...... Is it really possible, could the floating island be a chance for the fox to return to its body?

"Little girl, the world is far bigger than you and I can imagine. I heard that there are still people in this world who can train dragons! What is a dragon? King of Beasts! Su Ri can't see the real body at all. They are all beasts alive in legends, but someone caught the dragon and tamed it for their own use. You say, what else in this world will not happen? ”

How to train your dragon...... I looked at the shopkeeper Zhu in a daze: "Shopkeeper, you are talking about the Fenglong clan who disappeared in the city hundreds of years ago. ”

I heard my own voice tremble and hoarse, and sure enough! In the country of Lu, it is possible to find clues to go to Wolong Valley, this country is weak on the surface, but in fact it cannot be underestimated. They have already sent someone to find the Fenglong Clan, which means that there must be a lot of clues.

There's hope for going home!

"That's right! It's the Dragon's Clan. However, I heard that among the major families that tame beasts outside, there is a family that sees a dragon without a tail, and they seem to have a dragon too. But where have we ordinary people seen it? Even those who had seen many strange beasts at the inn were not sure. ”

The handkerchief in the shopkeeper's hand was stirred and stirred by her, and suddenly, she winked at me: "Little girl, you know a lot." I also know the dragon clan. ”

"What's so strange about that, what is said in the legends? Hundreds of years ago, when the world was still unified, the population and fief given by the emperor at that time to the Fenglong clan were in the territory of today's Lu State. It only disappeared later. "I can't learn anything else, but I have a good history and origin of the Dragon Clan.

Coupled with the fact that Feng Qingyi said the same thing before, I have no scruples. Anyway, what I'm talking about now is a legendary thing, and it doesn't affect my overall situation.

It would be nice if you could find a clue. But I guess it's just a fog, and the real clues should be in the well-guarded palace of the Lu State, or the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Feng Family's General's Mansion......

However, before I can find the clue to return to Wolong Valley, I still have to change the fox's body back first, and then find Ying Long. Further deliberations will be made later.

"It's not unusual." I wish the shopkeeper a boring pout.

I saw that there was nothing to ask, so I walked out of the Penglai Inn after a few polite words. I've already agreed with the killer swordsmen, and I'll meet them as soon as they arrive, and all I have to do now is buy a solid ship and hire a few boatmen who are familiar with sailing.

Without Yue Yun's conditions, rowing with fierce beasts and hiring some strong boatmen is essential.

I walked from the East Market to the West Market, and wandered around the port for another afternoon to find the right manpower. The boat I bought was only half the size of Yue Yun's merchant ship, which I considered based on actual considerations, and I could go to the dock to discuss with him when I bought a ship.

Tomorrow they will pull their anchors and get up, and they will be glad to see me coming, and they will be happy to sell some treasure for me.

After hearing the intention, Yue Yun told me several methods and techniques for choosing a boat. I asked him about the floating island, but he told me that there was indeed such an island without even hesitation.

However, Yue Yun said that this island is very mysterious, except for the time when it is close to the shallow sea and waiting for people to land on the island, no one has ever seen this floating island on the sea.

I said that Qi Jiuniang seemed to be trying to land on the island too, but Yue Yun didn't react for a long time. After a long time, he sneered: "That woman must want to control the entire caravan on the sea." Her ambitions are no less than those of kings. ”

"Having said that, I've heard that the kind of wish you need to land on the island is the kind of wish that you are willing to trade for death. Qi Jiuniang is the kind of person who would rather die than have control of the entire caravan on the sea? It sounds strange, but it's true.

Desperate pursuit does not sound like a substitute for ambition.
