Chapter 19: Crescent Island

By the time Zhang Zhixuan and Han Yan arrived at the battlefield, the fourth-order treasure ship had already fled far away, and Qing Chan saw that the two of them were safe and sound, and returned to Dafang Island to take care of them.

Seeing that Qingchan had defeated his opponent, Zhang Zhixuan and Hanyan simply returned to this desert island.

Seeing Zhang Zhixuan and the others coming back, Yu Youzhen asked, "How is Uncle Zhang's side, is Master injured?" ”

"Everything is fine on Qingchan's side, we have repelled the opponent's treasure ship and returned to Dafang Island to sit down."

Hearing this good news, Yu Youzhen's face suddenly turned happy and said, "Master's side is fine, I am completely relieved." ”

When Zhang Zhixuan and Hanyan came back, the monks on the treasure boat had already rescued most of the mortals who had fallen into the water, and several monks in the foundation building period except for Yu Youzhen to settle the mortals and take care of the island, the remaining dozen or so people were all salvaging the sunken ship, although Jia Mengzhen and others did not go into the water, but they had been busy during this time.

After a few busy days, settling all the people on the treasure ship on the island, and salvaging the sunken ship, Zhang Zhixuan spoke: "Meng Zhen, you go out and count it, and see how many people and monks have settled on the island?" These people will eventually be used by us in the future, and we cannot ignore them and let people starve to death in vain. ”

Jia Mengzhen has ruled Dafang Island for many years, and his personality has always been leaky, and in the last few days, when everyone on the island began to settle down, he had already counted the situation on the island clearly, and replied confidently: "Master, I know this in my heart, there are more than 12,000 mortals on the island, not counting the five foundations, and there are more than 120 innate cultivators who practice qi.

The food stored on the treasure ship can last for three months, and even if we organize farming now, we will need to provide food for another month or two. ”

"Do we have enough food on our island?" Zhang Zhixuan asked.

Jia Mengzhen smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid it's not enough, Dafang Island's food is not self-sufficient, there is a slight shortage, and the monks on the island need to hunt sea beasts in the offshore sea, and they can't support it at all." ”

"What are you going to do?"

Jia Mengzhen said: "For the time being, I can only let the monks of the foundation building period go to hunt sea beasts nearby to replenish for a period of time, but the area of this island is only one-eighth of Dafang Island, even if the island is relatively flat and can reclaim a lot of fertile land, it can't carry too much population, and the development potential is far inferior to Dafang Island." ”

Jia Mengzhen paused slightly and continued: "If the island wants to plan for the long term, it still needs to cultivate a spirit vein, and at least a third-order spirit vein must be cultivated. ”

Zhang Zhixuan nodded and said: "I have already taken this into consideration, and I have already sent Qiwen back to find Qingchan to gather the spirit array, as long as the spirit gathering array comes, the spirit vein will soon be there." ”

Jia Meng was really about to leave, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind: "Master, since we are going to take root on this island for a long time, we must give this island a name!" ”

Zhang Zhixuan pondered for a moment and laughed: "This island is shaped like a crescent moon, so it is called Crescent Island, and the treasure ship we captured is also called the Victory." ”

Zhang Zhixuan and Hanyan sat on the island for half a month, and when everything was on the right track and Crescent Island had stabilized, they returned to Dafang Island with the Victory.

The five Zhuji on the Victory, except for Li Yulin and Yuan Ruoyun, the remaining three were all left on Crescent Island to garrison, responsible for protecting the island and hunting nearby sea beasts to replenish food for mortals.

In order to monitor the three of them, Jia Mengzhen and He Zhongxing also temporarily stayed on Crescent Island. Within half a month, Zhang Zhixuan used the seized spirit stone to cultivate a third-order low-grade spirit vein on Crescent Island.

Although the third-order lower grade spiritual vein was crowded with five foundation building period monks, they were a little overwhelmed, but Sheng Tianlu and the three were still captives after all, and the spiritual vein was mainly for Jia Mengzhen and the two to practice, as for the three foundation building period captives, as long as there was some spiritual energy to maintain their cultivation.

The thirty Qi cultivation monks who operated the treasure ship were also brought back to Dafang Island by Zhang Zhixuan to serve as teachers to train some sailors who operated the treasure ship for Dafang Island.

Yu Wancheng, Lu Haoling, and Yu Youzhen were sent to the treasure ship by Zhang Zhixuan, preparing to let the three of them slowly learn to operate the treasure ship, and by the way, monitor Li Yuan and the two Zhuji.

After returning to Dafang Island, Zhang Zhixuan and Hanyan immediately returned to the underground cave to review the gains and losses of this battle.

Although they won a complete victory in this battle, and they knew from Li Yulin and others that they were being tracked, there were many details that they still didn't know.

"In this battle, three treasure ships were sunk, ten foundation building monks were killed, one hundred and eighty-nine Qi cultivation monks were killed, and seventy-four thousand spirit stones were captured. I consumed two fourth-order spirit runes, Hanyan consumed two of the four magic weapons, and one fourth-order spirit rune, and the loss was no less than 45,000, in addition to cultivating the spirit vein, I consumed 10,000 spirit stones, and the spirit stones that really fell in my hand were only 20,000. However, we captured a third-order high-grade treasure ship, which was worth about 120,000 spirit stones, plus more than 20,000 spirit stones in the spirit stone warehouse on the treasure ship, and at least 150,000 spirit stones were also obtained. ”

After listening to Zhang Zhixuan's introduction, Qing Chan nodded and said: "These are all recorded in the good deeds of the sect, although we are in charge here now, and there is no problem with not separating public and private, but in order to form a good system in the future, there should still be a clear distinction between public and private." ”

Zhang Zhixuan said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm not confused, including the investment in buying elixir this time, I have recorded good deeds, but according to the current appearance of Dafang Island, we will still not be able to make ends meet in a short period of time, and we are afraid that we will continue to invest for a period of time." ”

Qing Chan shook his head and said with a serious face: "Winning this battle is a good omen, but this time there are also lessons learned, and when you go to Xuanyang Island to trade in the future, you must be more cautious, and you must use invisibility charms when you come out."

If Brother Zhi Xuan uses a fourth-order invisibility talisman when you come out of the island, your whereabouts will definitely not be revealed. From this incident, we should know that Qinglihai has more battles than Nanya Prefecture, especially in this sea area, which is even more chaotic. If you are careless, you may not be able to defeat your opponent next time.

If the treasure ship does something to you halfway, Brother Zhixuan, it will be difficult for you to be spared, you have an accident, what should I do in the future? ”

Qing Chan's words, Zhang Zhixuan was speechless, and could only admit his mistake convincingly. He secretly thought in his heart: "A fourth-order invisibility talisman is worth four thousand spirit stones, and it is only used in and out of the market, and the cost of trading is too great.

It seems that you can't go to Xuanyang Island too often in the future, and every time you go, you have to use it at a critical juncture. ”

After returning to Dafang Island, Zhang Zhixuan planted some auxiliary elixir seeds collected on the island, maybe these seeds are not needed now, but after dozens of hundreds of years, these elixirs will mature, and they can also bring many benefits to Dafang Island.
