The wand was still floating in the water, and Yang Cheng went into the water and swam over. After getting the wand, go back and hand in the mission, and then think about the guild.

But at this moment, suddenly a creature with fish scales on his face came out of the water, grabbed his wand in one hand, and fled in the other direction as fast as he could.

Yang Cheng looked at this scene in astonishment, isn't that a fish man? The fishman should be an NPC, and the NPC actually grabbed equipment with him, what kind of world is this?

"I'll go, I'm just getting my wand back, is it so difficult, it's like learning scriptures from the west, and it's hard to go through ninety-nine eighty-one?" Yang Cheng was speechless, but he could only chase after him helplessly.

But he soon discovered that the fish-man was not trying to escape, but was walking and stopping, as if he was pulling him somewhere. It's obvious, if you want to escape, can't you just dive and be done? Yang Cheng's speed under the water is definitely not as fast as the fishman, and he surfaces from time to time, and then waits until Yang Cheng gets a little closer, and then he runs.

The word "he" is not misused, as the fish-man appears to be a male.

Yang Cheng thought that the fish people were a branch of mermaids, so they should all be women, but now it seems that this is not the case. And he was more curious about where the fish-man wanted to take him.

The area of this underground lake is not very large, but there are several branches, and one of the roads taken by the fish-man seems to be in the direction of Yang Cheng's position when he came, which means that it is closer to the Wind Spirit Country. After swimming like this for a while, turning a very hidden corner, Yang Cheng suddenly found a fish-man nest.

On either side of the mountain wall are a number of caves that have been carved out, half submerged and half exposed. One by one, the fish people stuck out their heads and looked at Yang Cheng nervously and curiously, although there were at least a hundred of them, they were silent and very quiet.

A hundred is actually not a lot, even if it is a fish-man nest, it is just a small nest. Yang Cheng also looked at them curiously, these fish people and mermaids still have some similarities, they are also half-human and half-fish bodies, but the difference is that their bodies are full of fish scales, and there are fins on their backs, which are more like fish.

"Welcome, human."

At this time, a certain fishman in front of a cave spoke, which immediately attracted Yang Cheng's attention. This is a male fish-man, relatively tall, and wears a head ring made of shells on his head, which is obviously different from other fish-people.

"Introduce yourself, my name is Norris, and I'm the leader of the Fish-People. I heard from Ann Li that you have the snail number that my Fish-Man clan uses to ask for help? Norris asked.

Yang Cheng nodded and took out the screw number.

Norris breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The Screw is a signal that our Fish-People use to ask for help from their companions, and it is also a token of our Clan. Originally, you had the Screw Number, and it was supposed that our Fish-Man Clan would help you, but now our Clan is unable to protect itself, so I have to ask you in turn. ”

"What's the matter?" Yang Cheng was happy in his heart, if the NPC had a request, it would be to send a task, and the more the better.

"Our people originally lived in the rivers of the Forest of Asa, but because of our good nature and dislike disputes, as the number of fierce aliens in the Forest of Asa increased, there was no place for our people. Especially the evil frogmen, their leader has taken a fancy to Ann Li, wants to take her as a concubine, and wants to kill us all. Our people resisted, but they still could not avoid the fate of the ruined family, and only we, the remnants of our people, fled here and hid. ”

Yang Cheng nodded when he heard this, this world is the law of the jungle, there is nothing to say, the weak race will definitely be bullied. It's just that what Yang Cheng doesn't understand is that the toad actually fell in love with the fish, how did they mate.

"And how do you want me to help?" Yang Cheng asked.

Norris sighed and said, "The frogman clan has not let us go, it is still searching, our clan has to be careful even when going out to forage for food, and it won't last long." I have heard that your people are going to attack the city of Lingshui, and that the water and materials there are more suitable for us, so I beg you to shelter my people and give them a place to settle in the waters of the city of Lingshui on the Asa River. ”

Yang Cheng said suspiciously: "But we can't fight underwater, and you live underwater, so how can I shelter you?" ”

"There's no need to worry about this, we can fix it ourselves. As long as we have your permission, let us dig a waterway to the city, and we can use the city to defend against foreign enemies, and the safety of our people will be safe. Norris said.

"What do you mean...... Moat?! ”

Yang Cheng was surprised and delighted, although Norris didn't say it too clearly, Yang Cheng thought of the moat in an instant. This is extremely beneficial for city defense, the difficulty of attacking a city with a moat is definitely different from a city without a moat, but the cost of the moat is too high, and Yang Cheng can't afford it at all.

And now, the Fish-Man not only helped him build a moat for free, but also let him send a favor and complete a task, where can I find such a good thing?

"No problem, absolutely no problem, it's on me!" Yang Cheng hurriedly agreed, for fear that Norris would regret it.

Norris was also overjoyed, took out a jewel from his arms, and said, "We also need a little expression for your help." This is an eyeball left by our ancestors, it gives our people strength, and I will give it to you when we make our home in Lingshui City. With it, you will be able to gain the ability to survive underwater, which will surely help you somewhat. ”

"Oh?"

Yang Cheng looked at the orb, it was indeed an eyeball, and the underwater survivability was indeed a rare superlative. It's just that for Yang Cheng, there is another thing that he cares about more, so he didn't accept it and asked, "I heard that you have some water ores in your hands, where did they come from?" ”

"You mean the pretty stones? It's in the Asa River, because they're so beautiful, so our women love to play with these stones. ”

"Is this a lot of fun?"

Norris thought for a moment and said, "Quite a few, several miles, and if you dig down, there will be more." ”

"How many miles? Or unexplored?! ”

Yang Cheng swallowed hard, according to Norris, this is just what he sees on the surface, and it is not clear what the situation is underneath. In this way, this is a big deposit, and it really didn't disappoint him.

"Let you help me mine these ores, it should be no problem to repay me, right? As for this eyeball, it is a relic of your ancestors that has been passed down from generation to generation, and I can do without it. ”

"You like those stones so much?" Norris looked a little surprised, and said, "Of course there is no problem, we don't dare to say anything about the other abilities of the Fish-Man Clan, but underwater excavation work is a natural skill." ”

When he said this, Norris's temperament was different, and he seemed extremely confident. He continued: "Since you have asked for it, I should accept it, and I thank you for your generosity. This treasure of my clan will be kept by me for the time being, and if you need it in the future, you can come to me at any time through the guò snail. ”

"That's too good to ask for." Yang Cheng was overjoyed, this treasure may not be lost, it can still be borrowed.

As for the biggest harvest this time, it is undoubtedly a mineral deposit, as long as there is the help of the Fish-Man Clan, if the commercial value of Lingshui City cannot be developed at that time, Yang Cheng still doesn't believe it. In the future, Lingshui City will definitely be the most important stronghold, and it will definitely not be lost.

"My clan still needs some preparations, and it will take some time to relocate, but I hope this day will come." Norris said, then asked the man to hand over the wand, and said, "I'm sorry, because my clan suffered a great disaster before, I didn't dare to meet you alone, so I hope you will be brought here, I hope you will forgive me." ”

"Well said, well said." Yang Chenghun didn't care, and happily took the wand. This time the task was finally completed, and Yang Cheng was excited when he thought that he could get some more money and the unknown gift that Ghost Dance said.

"By the way, I got lost when I came here, and I don't know how to go back, how about you send someone to guide the way?" Yang Chengdao.

"Of course."

This little thing is naturally not a problem, and Norris sent the fishman who had snatched Yang Cheng's wand before to leave with Yang Cheng.

The way back is by water, because the fish-people can't stay out of the water for too long, but in fact, it can also be regarded as a land route, because this is in the belly of the mountain, and the water flows through it, Yang Cheng is on the shore, and the fish-people are leading the way in the water.

Yang Cheng didn't say a word along the way, because he had to spend his mind trying to remember the way, and after walking for about half an hour, they arrived at the Forest of Asa.

"Follow this river all the way to the Asa River, do you need me to continue leading the way?" Fishman asked.

"No need, I'll just go back by myself." Yang Cheng already knows how to go back and walk along the river? He's not that stupid, it's obviously longer.

The fishman said a few polite words and went back, while Yang Cheng also walked into the Forest of Asa and headed northwest.

This is still the periphery of the Forest, that is, the refresh area of level 45 monsters, but you still have to be careful in such a place, after all, a high-level monster will pop up from time to time, which is enough to kill him in seconds.

After walking for a while, almost out of the forest, Yang Cheng found a safer place to get off the line.

I ate a meal sweetly, and before going to bed, I thought that school would start in a few days, and I should go home for a trip, and by the way, I bought some gifts for my parents.

At present, Yang Cheng does not have too much money on hand, only a hundred thousand, since he took over the guild, he has rarely done tasks, and the construction of the guild does not allow him to deduct oil and water, and even has investment, but he does not feel that he has lost, this is just for a greater harvest in the future.

But even so, he now has the strength to stop his father from doing those heavy jobs, and it is better to recuperate at home. After making a lot of money, I will buy a house and a car for the two elders, so that they can live happily every day.
