Chapter 421: Treasure Long Marrow
Winding coastlines, sandy beaches full of shells, coconut palms swaying in the wind.
Jiuluo Island is full of the unique style of a tropical island, and the sound of the surging tide is like a light sonata, which makes people feel comfortable.
The houses here are very strange in that they are not made of wood or stone, but are made of a kind of giant spired threaded shell.
Wine snails are a unique specialty of this small island.
These creatures are the size of a fist when they are born, but they will continue to grow in size as they age.
Legend has it that the largest conch is the size of a 30-square-kilometer island, and that size, floating on the sea, looks like a spiral-shaped mountain from a distance.
"This is the territory of the Bey, and they are neutral to humans, so we better be careful here."
Xiwei came over to remind Ning Yi, and almost pointed at Ning Yi's nose and yelled "Don't make trouble".
It's really along the way, Ning Yi kills wherever he goes, with the title of the world's number one sword, he is simply a magnet that automatically attracts trouble.
Ning Yi replied absentmindedly: "I'll try my best." ”
Sivi: "......"
It seems that it has just been attacked by pirates, and in the port area along the coast, there is a burst of gunsmoke and beacon fire.
Broken pieces of wood, corpses that have not had time to be disposed of, floating on the surface of the filthy sea.
In the air, the smell of fire salt wafted constantly, which was the smell of war.
"Who are you!?"
Twelve warriors draped in shells, spears in hand, stood on the deck of a galleon, talking to Avril's fleet in their voices.
"We're a fleet from Siegel, what's wrong with you guys here, it seems like it's going bad?"
Avril is the princess of Siegel, and there are many people who know her, so it is inconvenient to use the road, and the person who comes forward is Sivi.
Wearing a light green coat, the lion head and shoulder armor made of pure gold shone in the sunlight, this full of local tyrant atmosphere, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a pirate.
So on the patrol boat, the vigilance of the Bei people relaxed a little, and even the tone was much more relaxed: "It turned out to be a guest from Siegel, I apologize for what happened just now, in the past month, Jiuluo Island has been attacked by 9 pirates, so when we meet foreign ships, we are a little too nervous." ”
The most important thing is that Avril did not fly Siegel's flag in order to hide her whereabouts.
The flotilla, guided by the Bei patrol boats, docked at a temporary port, and the channel in the main port area was blocked by a few large silent warships, which were probably unusable until the clean-up was completed.
Ning Yi and the others could only land in a small boat first.
With a huge fleet, and it looks like an armed merchant ship with good combat power, the arrival of Avril and the others quickly attracted the attention of the island owner Tianwu Shenluo.
Tianwu is the 44th generation descendant of the Shenluo family, and it is rumored that his ancestor was the chief of guard of the first Dragon King of the East China Sea.
A team of iron snail guards, with invitations, came to invite Ning Yi and others to tonight's dinner.
Sivi was now the titular owner of the ship, so it was only natural that he should take care of the mundane business, and after accepting the invitation and expressing his willingness to go to the feast, the Iron Screw Guards departed.
And he went back to ask Avril: "Your Royal Highness, do you want to attend this dinner together?" ”
"No need."
Avril is not interested in this, don't look at her usual pretending to be calm and composed, in fact, because of her father's disappearance and civil strife in the kingdom, she is very anxious and panicked, but these emotions cannot be expressed.
For no other reason, she is the princess of Siegel and the first in line to the throne of the kingdom.
It was her natural mission and responsibility to keep the kingdom alive.
"Yes, I want to attend the dinner too."
Su Qi's eyes sparkled and looked at Ning Yi.
"Okay, good, go and go."
Of course, Ning Yi is not interested in this kind of socialization, but since Su Qi likes it, it is better to accompany her for a while.
Sivir came out of the princess's room, happened to bump into this scene in the hall, and pulled his mouth, but said nothing.
In fact, he didn't want Su Qi to follow him to join in the fun.
Because the man next to her is a troublemaker!
……
In order to participate in the dinner, Ning Yi and Su Qi both deliberately changed into a set of customized evening dresses, and Ning Yi chose a pale blue feather coat, which looked elegant and dusty.
Su Qi wore a set of aqua blue long skirts, with long hair coiled up, a slender figure, and a slender bee waist, which brought out the unique charm and softness of the girl.
Talented and beautiful, nothing more than that.
"Wow, this is the Jade Conch Palace, it's so beautiful!"
Following behind Xiwei, Ning Yi and Su Qi proudly passed through the heavy guards and entered the palace where the island lord Shenluo clan had lived for generations.
The whole palace is made of wine snails of different sizes as the main body, and then decorated with precious marine specialties, which is so gorgeous that people are dizzying.
Pearls, corals, amber, clams, hawksbill turtles, rare organic gemstones that can only be found in the depths of the sea, are piled up here.
It's just that people can't wait to grab a handful and go back, and they can make a fortune right away.
Su Qi, a girl with dragon attributes, naturally has no resistance to gems, and the eyes of the two are now full of bright symbols.
"Hee-hee, I know why those pirates are here to fight this island."
Isn't it, just these treasures seen in front of you are enough to make any player power on the current side rise completely, and the wealth is comparable to that of the country.
"Welcome, come to the Jade Conch Palace."
Tianwu Shenluo has a fair face, delicate skin, no beard and no hair, and is armed with a treasure and bright shell, gorgeous and powerful.
"I would like to congratulate our valiant Conch Army for once again repelling a dastardly pirate attack."
After Tianwu Shenluo finished speaking, he held a delicate Tang Guanluo wine glass high and drank it all.
"Long live the owner!"
In the main hall, there were many Bei warriors wearing military uniforms, their skin showed yellow-brown variegated lines, not as pure as the Tianwu Shenluo, but the strong qi and blood on their bodies were like burning torches, scorching and blazing.
The general of the Iron Snail Army, the most warlike warrior among the Bei people.
"It's just a small island, but it has such a prosperous military appearance, this Shenluo family is really not simple."
Ning Yi asked for a glass of Jiuluo Island's specialty-Zhenlong pith, a light blue wine, very precious, even in the Yuluo Palace, only the most distinguished guests can enjoy it.
If it weren't for the guy who followed Xiwei, Ning Yi wouldn't have had a chance to drink, but even now, he only had a small quota.
"Well, it's delicious!"
Su Qi also got a cup, she took a small sip, her face suddenly flushed, and her eyes were even more drunk.
The beauty of Zhen Long is not only that it can activate your taste buds, but also that it can make you recall the best memories in your heart.
Ning Yi doesn't like to drink very much, and most of the sword cultivators don't have the habit of drinking, but Zhen Long is an exception, and in the game, it doesn't matter how you drink.
So he also picked up the glass made of shells and tasted it gently.
The wine syrup is mellow, enters the mouth, raps three times, and then turns sharply down and enters the abdominal cavity.
A warm breath suddenly enveloped Ning Yi, making him feel as if he had returned to the moment when he was wrapped in amniotic fluid in his mother's body before he was born and when he was still a fetus.
Carefree, thoughtless, just indulge in this flawless moment.
"Ah, that feeling."
The strength of the wine quickly dissipated, Su Qi woke up from the dreamy intoxication, and the first thing she did was to pull Ning Yi to tell her experience and feelings: "Ning Yi, you drink it too, that feeling is too wonderful to describe in words." ”
Ning Yi also sobered up from intoxication, stared deeply at the wine in the glass, but his expression was different from Su Qi: "There is something wrong with this wine." ”
"Huh? It's delicious, and we don't have any negative status when we drink it. ”
Su Qi was puzzled, in her opinion, the Zhenlong pith in the cup was simply great, and it couldn't have been better drunk.
But Ning Yi knew that in that short moment just now, his spiritual power was burned by about 1%.
Spiritual power, or the concept of the Xuantian Realm, should be called soul fire, which is the origin of the soul, a pure spiritual energy.
With the current level of technology on the earth, it is difficult to detect things because the technology tree points are crooked in different directions.
Ning Yi is a monk, and the monk naturally controls his own spiritual origin, so he can perceive the strength and weakness of his spiritual power through internal vision and perception.
"This kind of wine will make people feel high, although its essence is just a set of virtual data, but it will still waste people's energy."
Ning Yi used controlled drugs such as stimulants and psychedelics as examples to explain the impact to Su Qi.
Excited mental state is difficult to last, for example, some things that everyone loves to do, not only consume physical strength and protein, but at the same time to reduce mental strength, if too frequent, it will even lead to mental malaise, and no medicine can make up for it.
Even monks do not have many effective means to strengthen their spiritual power, and the growth of spiritual power is often gradual and slow.
And a small glass of wine, a sip will reduce by 1%, even if it tastes good, Ning Yi has no interest.
"Ah, oh, then I won't drink it anymore."
After listening to Ning Yi's narration, although she was a little reluctant, she still put down the wine glass in her hand, and she still didn't drink most of the glass.
"You don't seem to like the specialties of our Jiuluo Island."
A gorgeous-looking girl of the Bei tribe walked over and smiled slightly when she saw Ning Yi and Su Qi's remaining half of the cup of Zhenlong in their wine glasses.
"It's nothing, although the elixir is wonderful, it doesn't suit the taste."
Ning Yi explained casually, and didn't continue.
