Chapter 179: Sogo Island
After a general understanding, Xi Yan felt that Sogo Island was different from the previous islands, it was not strongly controlled by one party, and it was necessary to go through the passage to enter and exit the island.
On Sogo, access to the island is free. Outsiders can come and go as they please, without being questioned. This point touched Xi Yan deeply. I think I spent a lot of money to get to the island.
"Is it really possible to come and go as you please?"
Gu Feng confirmed: "Well, since I have been, it has always been like this. The benefactor asked, isn't it the case on the other islands? β
This kid reacted very quickly, Xi Yan thought to herself, and asked instead of answering: "In this way, anyone can enter, won't the island be very chaotic, and you also said that Sogo Island is a big island, isn't it very unsafe?" β
"The benefactor's concern is justified. But you don't have to worry about it on Sogo. Gu Feng said with a smile, "On Sogo Island, the forces are mixed, but everyone abides by the rules of the island. There is no personal fight with people on the island, and if there is any grievance, it can be resolved in the arena. Once someone fights privately and affects the order of the island, all forces have rights. In the event of a serious dispute, it will be resolved through negotiation between several major forces. Under such rules, few outsiders dare to make trouble. β
"Aren't the people on the island free to bully outsiders?" Xi asked.
"It's inevitable, that's why you're allowed to come in and out at will. Moreover, the rule-makers must be doing so to protect their own interests, not the other. β
The same is true for Xi Yanxiang, whether it is directly controlled or acted indirectly, it is to protect her own interests from being infringed.
"Benefactor, are we going to Sogo Island?" Gu Feng asked.
"Of course, you are from the island, and you must go home. I'll follow you to see it. "I finally came across an island, and I definitely want to go to it. These days at sea have upset Xi and she has to stop for a few days.
"Okay, then I'll lead the way." Gu Feng said happily. Able to escape. He desperately wanted to go back.
Gu Yue, who has been silent since she got on the shuttle, said, "Benefactor, where did you come from?" β
Compared to his brother's shrewdness and ability. My sister is very calm and self-controlled, and she has few words. has been listening to the conversation between his brother and Xi Yan, and did not interject.
Gu Feng looked at Gu Yue in surprise, wondering why his sister still asked this question. He had already asked just now, since the benefactor did not answer. I just don't want to answer, so why ask?
Gu Yue completely ignored her brother's reproachful eyes, and her eyes were fixed on Xi Yan, wanting an answer.
Xi Yan looked at Gu Yue in surprise, is this question important. Tong GuΓ²'s inquiry just now revealed that his identity had undoubtedly been determined, and he was an outsider. Why get to the bottom of it.
Seeing her brother's disapproval, Xi Yan's incomprehension, Gu Yue stubbornly asked, "Benefactor, where did you come from?"
Why do you ask? You already have the answer in mind, don't you? β
Gu Yue said: "Well, I know that the benefactor is not from Sogo Island, but I still want to know more, I wonder if the benefactor can tell me?"
Xi Yan was still puzzled, "In addition to the identity of the outsider, what else do you want to know?" β
Gu Yue is not going around in circles, "Benefactor, not a person in the sea." β
Xi Yan raised her eyebrows slightly, how could she see it.
"Benefactors don't have to worry. I just want to know what the world is like outside the sea. Gu Yue's big eyes were full of sincerity.
Through these eyes, Xi Yan saw the longing and yearning for the outside world. "How did you know for sure?" did not deny Gu Yue's words.
His eyes lit up, and Gu Yue was encouraged, "The benefactor is really a person from outside the sea, and my judgment is not wrong." "I seem to be aware of my gaffe. She said embarrassedly: "Actually, I'm just guessing. The benefactor does not speak like a man at sea, and the benefactor behaves differently. β
"Gu Yue." Gu Feng was afraid that his sister would anger his benefactor, so he hurriedly spoke out to organize.
Xi Yan didn't expect this quiet girl to observe so carefully. Such an outcome can be inferred from such contact alone.
She didn't care, though. Even if the siblings knew she was from, there was nothing. "Yes, you're right. I'm not a man at sea. β
Seeing that the guess had been confirmed, a smile appeared on Gu Yue's face, and she was about to ask. was stopped by his brother in time.
Gu Yue reacted at this time, it was not the time to ask.
Gu Feng stopped his sister and said to Xi Yan: "Benefactor, let's go to the island?"
Xi Yan nodded. She was tired of being adrift at sea.
The brother and sister had no opinion, and of course they were happy to be able to go home. I almost couldn't come back from this trip, and both of them had palpitations.
In the envious eyes of the brother and sister, Xi Yan took the shuttle. Raising his eyes, it was time for the two to lead the way.
Following behind the two, Xi Yan looked at the scenery on Sogo Island. It's not much different from other islands.
Gu Feng said: "Benefactor, I have been dependent on my sister for many years, and my family is poor, I hope to forgive me."
"It doesn't matter." Xi said. After wandering outside for so long, what kind of situation have you never encountered, how can you mind the poor family situation.
Seeing that Xi Yan's expression remained unchanged, Gu Feng breathed a sigh of relief. continued: "The grace of saving lives cannot be repaid, and if the benefactor has any orders, please speak up. I will do it by all means. β
Xi Yan thought for a moment and shook her head. There's nothing he needs to do for the time being.
When he arrived at Gu Feng's house, Xi Yan understood why he wanted to say that his family was poor. It's really too simple, two dilapidated wooden houses, you can see the inside clearly from the outside.
It's really shabby. In her opinion, the brother and sister have the ability to hunt animals at sea for a living, and the place where they live can't be shabby like this.
Seeing Xi Yan's stunned appearance, Gu Feng was extremely embarrassed.
Sister Gu Yue stepped forward and said, "This is our house, go in and sit."
has arrived at the door of the house, and Xi Yan can only follow in.
The Gu Feng brothers and sisters had nothing at home, so they could only get a glass of water to entertain Xi Yan.
Tong guΓ² brother and sister, Xi Yan roughly knew the situation on Sogo Island. The three of them headed towards the bustling part of the island.
The Gu Feng brothers and sisters are the poorest people living on the island, oppressed and embarrassed, so they can only go to the sea to engage in dangerous activities to make ends meet.
As for the prosperous place on the island, the two have only heard of it, but they have not seen it with their own eyes.
"Gu Yue, you yearn for the outside world?" Xi Yan asked, this girl's eyes before were sincere and could not deceive people. Life is so embarrassing. There is such an ambition.
"Yes." Although Gu Yue didn't understand why Xi Yan asked this, she still answered truthfully.
"Why?"
"Maybe it's because life here is too hopeless that we put hope outside." Gu Yue's voice was low.
At this moment, Xi Yan seemed to understand a lot. Life on Sogo is hopeless. has been oppressed all year round, watching her brother's hardships for life, etc., so that this girl has seen a lot and is silent a lot. Although she didn't say it, she knew it in her heart.
Gu Feng turned his head to look at his sister. It's the first time I've seen such a sister. He never imagined that his sister, who had always been silent and silent, could say such desperate words.
Over the years, he has really ignored his sister's heart, has not communicated, and doesn't even know what she thinks. This brother is really incompetent.
"Gu Yue, you, why didn't you talk about this?"
Looking at Gu Feng, who blamed himself, Gu Yue said: "Brother doesn't have to blame himself, you have done a good job." Even at the expense of myself for my sake. For our lives. You did your best, I know that. β
Xi Yan interrupted the brother and sister's complaint, "The rule on the island is that the strong are respected, why are you still doing this?" β
Speaking of this, the brother and sister were silent for a while, and Gu Feng said bitterly: "This qiΔ can be traced back to the grievances of the previous generation, my father was a warrior of a big family before his death, and his status was respected. It's just that he died somehow later, and the big family's argument is that his father stole the secret. We died, but we were banished. People go to tea and cool, everyone falls into the well, and we will never turn over. β
What the ancient style said. It's happening everywhere, and it's not new. Xi Yan also understands that in a world where the strong are respected, such things are not uncommon.
Several people walked in silence, and no one spoke again. It's not easy to live well. They all know it.
"Here we are." The silence was broken by the sound of the ancient wind.
The tall and majestic complex is presented in front of you. Only then did Xi Yan truly feel the majesty of this island.
From a distance, solemn sΓΉ mu.
Gu Feng and Gu Yue, looking at the majestic buildings, their eyes flashed with complex brilliance. Once, they longed to go in, but after a few cruel treatments, they finally realized that this was not the place they should be. It takes a lot of courage for the two to come here again.
"Let's go." Xi Yan said lightly.
Gradually, there were more people, and there was an atmosphere of group life.
The feeling that had not been seen for a long time hit, and Xi Yan was a little unwell. I have been floating on the sea for a long time, and I have not seen any humans. She longed for it in her heart, but when she actually saw it, it was in a different mood.
After a little adjustment to get used to herself, Xi Yan walked in with her feet raised.
Sure enough, more and more people were encountered on the road.
"Let's find a place to live first."
Gu Feng hesitated for a moment and said, "Benefactor, accommodation here is very expensive." He looked at Xi Yan's dress, it shouldn't be rich, so he was kind.
"It's expensive, how expensive?" Xi Yan stopped and asked. When it comes to money, she has to ask.
Gu Feng said: "The currency in circulation on Sogo Island is the spirit coin."
In just one sentence, Xi Yan understood. There are spirit coins used here, and there are no gold coins. From this, it can be seen that the island is indeed different.
She should have spirit coins in her pocket, I don't know if it's enough. However, I have also obtained a lot of treasures these days, but I can take them out and exchange them for huΓ n. With the bottom in her heart, Xi Yan took another step.
When Gu Feng saw this, his heart let go.
The accommodation was quickly found, and the Gu Feng brothers and sisters watched Xi Yan quickly check in for the three of them, their eyes widened, and they couldn't believe that she was so generous. It's so good to their brother and sister, they don't have anything to do with her.
Ignoring the surprise of the two, Xi Yan said, "Go up and have a look, rest for a while, let's go out for a walk."
Along the way, I was physically and mentally exhausted, and I really needed a good rest.
The brother and sister looked at each other, but Xi Yan had already spoken, and they just had to do it.
Actually, for the two brothers and sisters, Xi Yan didn't have too many thoughts. She felt good to be able to walk with her. If you don't know someone here, it's best to have someone to accompany you.
Coming to the room, Xi Yan thought back to what the Gu Feng brothers and sisters said about Sogo Island. This island should be more prosperous and wealthy than the previous ones, and most of them are cultivators. Here, there are a lot of resources, as long as you have spirit coins, you can get what you want.
Xi Yan is very satisfied with this, and hopes to meet what she wants. It's been a long time since I've lived in a crowd, listening to the noisy sounds around me, it's so strange.
At this moment, she couldn't help but think of Yan Feilai, the chattering and enthusiastic woman. I don't know where she is, if she's safe and sound.
Whether the people in the city are well, whether her stone house is visited.
Where is Qi Chen?
What worries Xi Yan the most is Qi Chen, the vast sea, boundless, and there is no way to find his traces. Walking to Sogo Island, she clearly knew that the road was difficult. The slightest carelessness will pay a terrible price.
The land of the extreme east should be this boundless sea, but when I arrived here, I found that the world is so vast, it is not as simple as imagined. How simple it is to find someone here, it is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack. But she has come here, let her give up, but she is unwilling.
No matter what the road ahead is, she has already arrived here, and Xi Yan will never look back. Lying on the bed, staring at the curtain above her head, she thought faintly that she had already come, and she must not retreat. The clues of the demon must be here, as long as you don't give up, you will gain something.
Crossing this vast sea, you can reach the land of the demon clan. Xi thought that she only needed to go to the junction of the two clans. As everyone knows, how far Sogo Island is from the junction, with her current forward speed, she may not be able to reach it after a hundred years.
The ignorant are fearless, Xi Yan is full of confidence in the road ahead, and nothing can stop her from moving forward.
At this time, in the room next to Xi Yan, the Gu Feng brothers and sisters sat around the table and talked quietly. They even put up noise barriers for safety.
"Gu Yue, what do you think of her?" Gu Feng asked, there is no need to say, the two of them know this "her" well.
After thinking about it, Gu Yue said: "The heart is very right, and the rest is difficult to say." β
"Yes, she really pours out her heart and lungs for us, and from her eyes, you can't see contempt and contempt. Although her words are a little less and colder, we can't ignore her kindness to us. Aside from the grace of saving lives, it is already rare to learn that we have offended the great clan here, and still be able to walk with us. β
Speaking of this, both of them were silent. On this island, they can't find a companion. Who would dare to compete with the great clans. Knowing their past, I can't wait to come up and step on a few feet. (To be continued.) )
