Chapter 297: Lonely Old Captain Uncle Nian
Zhang Sui was about to reject the proposal of the unintentional monk, although this Xun Que spoke very nicely, but after all, he was a stranger.
Signing the spirit binding paper, that means that his life and death are controlled by himself, and this kind of requirement is too much.
In fact, Xun Que was also slightly stunned, frowned and looked at Zhang Sui and said: "The spirit binding paper should be a rune paper with the spirit binding array depicted, once you sign it, it is almost the identity of a slave below." Seriously, I am willing to look forward to my brother's horse, but this spirit paper-"
The heartless monk said coldly: "Hypocrisy! β
Zhang Sui glanced at the Wuxin monk and said, "Okay, Wuxin!" This kind of thing is something that no one wants to do, and it's still a stranger who meets in the water. β
Xun Que hugged Zhang Sui and said: "As a human being, Brother Tai will naturally know when we get along in the future." β
Zhang Suiqiang laughed, noncommittal.
The rumored situation in the Dynasty Continent in the inn is mainly the war between the Qin State and the Demon Clan, and there is another, that is, the invitation to the battle of the Flying Dragon List appeared in the Dynasty Continent, how many people who practice weekdays have emerged at this time, just to win an invitation.
In these two aspects, one Zhang Sui did not dare to listen, and the other was no longer interested.
The four of them rested in the inn for one night, Zhang Sui and Wuxin Monk slept in an inn, and Ashin and Xun Que slept in a room.
The next day, the star rose, and Zhang Sui and his party of four continued to move towards Nanzhiyuan.
At noon, they rushed to Zhutian Town.
Although the town of Zhutian is a small town, it is sparsely populated, and it is almost indistinguishable from a larger village, and you can almost see the end of the town from the head of the town.
After all, the dragon into the sea was once glorious, but now it has undergone great changes, and only an old captain is left, but it is quite famous in this Zhutian Town.
People tend to have more memories of the Fall than they do about the Fall.
When Zhang Sui and the four of them followed the guidance of the townspeople to enter the sea, they all couldn't believe their eyes.
I saw a huge fence wall surrounding nearly twenty wooden houses, which shows that in the glorious past, there were many disciples.
Sadly, at this moment, inside the fence wall, there are only wild grasses, and it is lonely.
The old captain is over seventy years old, and although the shipyard has decayed, he is still very popular with the townspeople, who call him "Uncle Nian".
It's just that this "Uncle Nian" has a very bad habit, every time he chats with his neighbors, he always likes to brag about how brilliant the dragon once was and how exquisite his shipbuilding skills were.
In the early years, the townspeople were quite sympathetic to the poor old man.
It's just that decades have passed, and the old man is still like this, and the townspeople can't stand it anymore.
The current townspeople, as long as Uncle Nian mentions things related to the ship, they must stay away from him.
Zhang Sui and the four of them stood outside the fence and looked inside the fence, but they couldn't see a single wooden boat.
The four of them were a little disappointed, especially Zhang Sui, who almost wanted to cry.
Nearly a month has passed since Leng Mu was trapped in the Netherworld Realm after being trapped in the trap of the Hundred Miles Heavenly Craft. Thinking of her and the child in her belly, Zhang Sui longed for the wings on C to fly directly into the Netherworld.
But now, not to mention going to Lingdao to find the Holy Maiden and find the entrance to the Netherworld, it is difficult to go to the South Abyss that must be passed to Lingdao.
Without a sturdy ship, you can't cross the South Abyss, you can't go to the South Abyss, and saving Leng Mu Ning is a dream bubble.
"Brother Sui doesn't have to despair, although the poor monk doesn't believe in the number of days, he never thinks that you are the blessed person." The heartless monk comforted.
Xun Que pinched his fingers and said: "Brother Tai, pinch your fingers and count, there is a bright light in the fog of this trip, is this extremely Tailai's meaning." β
Ashin also hurriedly said: "Brother Sui, don't worry, we will definitely find the big ship!" β
Zhang Sui took a deep breath, calmed down the restlessness in his heart, glanced at Wuxin Monk, Xun Que and Ashin, and said, "I hope it is as you say." β
Seeing that there was no one in the twenty wooden houses on the fence, Zhang Sui couldn't help but shout: "Uncle Nian? Uncle Nian is not there? yearsβ"
Before Zhang Sui finished shouting, a sturdy old man walked out of a wooden house and said, "What about the soul?" It's coming, it's coming! β
Zhang Sui's face was a little embarrassed.
The old man made a large number of Zhang Sui four people, but he didn't open the fence door, but just said with a disgusted face: "Which family are you relatives?" Teasing me again, old man! If you don't do it, you don't believe it or not, and if you don't believe it, pull it down, is it interesting to hurt me like this? β
Zhang Sui and the four looked at each other.
Taking out the dragon pattern jade pendant from the storage belt, Zhang Sui stepped forward and said, "Uncle Nian, I don't know what happened to you, but we came to you this time, there is really something." β
"Hey, are you bothered? Come to this set every time, be careful that my son comes back from the Thousand Machines Sect to smoke-" Uncle Nian turned around, and on his impatient face, a pair of cloudy eyes showed a bright light, and then dimmed, and said, "Dragon pattern jade pendant?" This is the wedding gift that my father gave to the daughter-in-law of the Zhao family when he was alive, how did it get into your hands? β
"Uncle Nian, I was originally a slave of the Zhao family, because Brother Sui has a great favor to the Zhao family, so the old lady asked me to follow Brother Sui, and gave this dragon pattern jade pendant to Brother Sui, so that he could come to you to build a ship." Ashin stammered nervously.
Uncle Nian once again counted the four of them, and finally his eyes focused on Zhang Sui's face, and said, "You have a great favor to the Zhao family?" Seeing that you are young, it is hard to imagine that you will be very kind to the Zhao family. β
The unintentional monk showed a mocking look on his face, and was about to refute, but he saw Uncle Nian open the fence door, turned around, and walked towards a wooden house, saying as he walked: "You guys are late, I'm already old, and there is no one to swim into the sea, and I can't build a big ship anymore, and I can't fulfill my promise to the Zhao family." Look at what you like here, take it, and take it as compensation. β
The Wuxin monk said: "Hey, old donor, don't you look at what kind of bird doesn't here, let's take what?" Even if you tear down your twenty wooden houses, it's only a matter of a few hundred taels of silver. Do you think Brother Sui looks like a person who lacks those hundreds of taels of silver? All we need is a boat! A large ship that can cross the southern abyss! β
"You want to cross the southern abyss?" Uncle Nian walked out of the wooden house, holding a sharp knife in his hand, and said in surprise: "The South Abyss is vast and boundless, and I have never heard of anyone successfully crossing the other side since I was a child. β
"No, I just want to go to Spirit Island." Zhang Sui said.
Uncle Nian was even more surprised, and said, "Spirit Island? The legendary island of the spirit girl who practiced the art of the five elements? No, no, no, no one has ever been there, it's always been a legend! β
Uncle Nian waved his hand.
"No, Spirit Island is real, not only do we know, we have already met several groups of masters on the road and are also preparing to go to Spirit Island." A female voice said suddenly.
Zhang Sui turned his head suddenly, his face was a little excited, it turned out to be Lu Xiaoman and Zhou Yanxin.
Seeing that Zhou Yanxin lowered his head and didn't look at himself at all, Zhang Sui thought of what he had said in the inn that night, and his heart gradually cooled.
Lu Xiaoman shook a piece of jade pendant in his hand, and it turned out to be a dragon pattern jade pendant.
"Uncle Nian, after our sisters are deceased, the elders of the family said that in this world, except for the Thousand Machine Sect, only you can build a big boat to cross the southern abyss, don't let us down."
Uncle Nian glanced at Zhang Sui, Wuxin Monk, Xun Que, Ah Xin, Lu Xiaoman and Zhou Yanxin, no longer went to pick up the dragon pattern jade pendant, shook his head and walked out of the fence door and said: "I'm old, I can't do it anymore, I have to live up to the high expectations of the elders in your family." I'm going to go to town to buy groceries and make lunch, so let's go!" β
