Faced with Xiaohui's request to go to Longmen to play, Xia Feng put down his chopsticks and collapsed on the stool.

"I don't want to go anywhere now, I'll have a chance later."

"Hmph."

.....

As the weather gets cooler, the frequency of sandworms is getting lower and lower, and Xia Feng seriously suspects that sandworms have a habit of hibernating, just like the small windmill at the Black Feather Barbecue Restaurant.

But it's not winter yet, and even the crops in the vegetable garden haven't withered, so we still need to fight at the last moment.

Even if it's not to make money, it's better to improve the food for yourself.

Early in the morning.

Kuta carried a basket on his back to the courtyard of Xia Feng's house.

"Brother Xia Feng, let's go, go to the beach to catch crabs."

The summer breeze poked its head out of the window.

"Now."

"yes, the sun comes out and the crabs run away."

Xia Feng glanced at the overcast sky.

"I don't think the sun will come out all day today, so I don't know if it will rain later."

Sota shook his basket.

"It's okay, I brought a coat."

It's been almost ten days since the bagpipes left, and Xia Feng, who has been staying at home all this time, has become a vegetarian animal, and the clear soup and little water are about to catch up with the Sakura Takeshi seniors.

Looking at this posture, the bagpipes don't know how long it will take to come back, and before the bagpipe mother returns, he and Fengbao can't gnaw potatoes every day.

Even if it's a bit of luck, it doesn't matter if he's a sandworm or a crab, just get a few of them to satisfy your cravings.

"Kuta, wait for me, I'll get the equipment."

"Okay."

...

Bring a big straw hat to protect from the rain, a backpack for loot, and a summer wind scarf around your neck, and set off with Fengbao and Kongtai.

Just in case, he would take the Shenyue Knife with him every time he went out, even if he had given up killing the sea monster, he would never leave the knife.

Walking out of the cherry blossom forest, the sky is still overcast, but looking at the state of the clouds, it seems that it will not rain heavily.

Sota turned his head sideways with the basket on his back.

"Brother Xia Feng, where are we going today, let's go east along the coastline."

"No, not to the east."

"Where are you going?"

The summer wind pointed to the west.

"Go to Sandworm Bay, brother will take you to catch sandworms."

Hearing the words "Sandworm Bay", Kuta recalled the terrifying sea monster he had seen in the sea before, and his whole person shrank his head.

"Brother Xia Feng, do you want to ..... Forget it, it's too dangerous. ”

Xia Feng smiled lightly.

"What are you afraid of, it's Sandworm Bay and not Sandworm Island, we don't go to the sea, we only wander around the coast."

"But I'm still afraid of ......"

"Don't be afraid, I often go after that time, that sea monster can only swim and not walk, don't worry, it won't climb ashore."

This is true, through many personal experiments, Xia Feng is very sure that there is no danger on the shore.

A few times, when he was looking for sandworms on the coast, he had seen the sea monster appear, but no matter how much he jumped and jumped, the sea monster would not come close to the shore twenty meters away.

....

Sandworm Bay was still far away, and after walking for about 1 hour, the familiar altar finally appeared.

Kuta said with palpitations.

"Brother Xia Feng, you have to be careful this time, don't do anything dangerous."

An adult brought a half-grown child to the beach, and was warned by the child not to do anything dangerous, which made him cry and laugh.

"Don't worry, whoever goes to the sea today is a puppy."

Then he solemnly admonished Feng Bao.

"Feng Bao, you are not allowed to swim in the sea today, just look for sandworms on the shore, you know?"

"Wang!"

There was no sun and no wind, which was perfect for catching the sea, and then he and Kuta began to search for loot in the area of Sandworm Bay.

....

Although Kong Tai is young, he is an experienced old Haiwa, carrying a small basket and holding a small clip, and he picks the reef crevices after the tide recedes.

Within a few moments, several small crabs had been caught.

On the other hand, Xia Feng is more ambitious, he does not pay attention to the crab at all, but carefully searches for the suspicious sandbag, and his target is only the sandworm.

As long as he catches a sandworm, the delicious sandworm legs are enough for him and Fengbao to eat several meals, how can those small crabs that are difficult to break and have no meat compare.

However, although the ideal is good, the reality is cruel.

Maybe the sandworm is really hibernating, and after looking for more than 2 hours, the backpack is still empty.

The clouds in the sky were thicker.

Xia Feng sighed in disappointment, raised his head, looked at the distant sandworm island at the end of his sight, and muttered in his mouth.

"Do the sandworms sleep at home?"

There was no way, he was very disappointed that he had found nothing in the morning, and at the same time, his legs were weak and his eyes were sore.

Kuta was still happily catching the little crab in the distance, and Xia Feng glanced at the child, and then shouted at him.

"Kuta, are you hungry, do you want to come over and eat something? I brought potatoes. ”

Kuta's voice came.

"I'm not hungry, there are a lot of crabs here, I'll catch a little more, and I'll give it to you when the time comes."

Xia Feng said to the wind treasure beside him.

"Fengbao, you go to Kongtai's side to help him."

"Wang!"

Exhaled heavily into the sea, and then, Xia Feng walked to the old altar with his backpack on his back.

.....

The sky was still overcast.

Sitting on the edge of the altar, the sea breeze mixed with the coolness of late autumn was blowing in his face, and the summer breeze took the kettle from his bag and poured a few mouthfuls facing the sea.

In this way, sandworms do not provide a stable source of income and food, and winters on the south coast are short, but at least more than two months.

And as long as winter comes, most of the crops will wither, and even if they are still alive, it is not conducive to growth, in order to maintain the fertility of the soil, it is likely to be removed completely, and replanted in the spring.

In this case, vegetables, sandworm meat, and money have all experienced a "cold winter", and when the bagpipes return, they may have to find another way to maintain the stability of their quality of life.

...

While Xia Feng was thinking about these trivial matters of life, a bright light suddenly flashed in the clouds in the distance on the sea, which seemed to be lightning.

After a few seconds, the sound of "boom" thunder came from the sky.

The clouds in the sky are getting thicker and thicker, and it looks like heavy rain is about to fall.

Just as Xia Feng put the kettle back in his backpack and was about to get up, an unfamiliar male voice suddenly sounded beside him with a bit of ease.

"Life is short, as long as you have a goal you want to achieve, you will work hard for it, and other than that, there is nothing to sigh about."

This voice made Xia Feng stunned.

Turning his head to the side, a man in a blue shirt dressed as a samurai stood still, facing the sea, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and an ear of grass between his teeth.

This person's temperament is natural, and there is a sense of seeing heaven and earth as nothing, Xia Feng asked a little confused.

"You are?"

"Oh, a traveler who happened to be passing through this place."

Xia Feng raised his eyebrows, traveler?

....

The warriors of the Eastern Kingdom have always liked to practice alone, just like the Wrapping Pill they met before, they met different people and experienced different things in order to improve their martial arts attainments from the inside out.

However, Xia Feng would not simply think that the person who appeared quietly beside him was a traveler.

Because, he saw that this person was wearing a long knife engraved with a cherry blossom crest on his waist.

....

However, the dashing samurai didn't care too much about him, but asked like a friend who met in Pingshui.

"Your heart is restless, is there something that is bothering you?"

Xia Feng didn't know the true identity of this person for the time being, but he didn't bother to think about this kind of thing, anyway, he would have a salted fish now.

Without any concealment, he looked at the sea and said frankly.

"I want to catch more sandworms."

This person is clearly unaware of the geography of the area.

"What is a sandworm?"

"Oh, it's an ingredient that can be eaten."

"Then why don't you catch more?"

"It's cold, you can't catch it, and if you want to catch more, you need to go to that island."

"Then why don't you go to the island?"

Xia Feng smiled bitterly.

"Heh, I want to go too, but there is a huge sea monster guarding Sandworm Island in this area, and no one can get close."

Hearing Xia Feng's words, the sword-wielding warrior in the blue shirt gently closed his eyes, as if he was feeling something.

After a long time, he whispered.

"I see, I've noticed the sea monster you said."

Xia Feng looked surprised.

"Noticed? This is...... Intention? ”

"Oh, sort of."

After that, this person took two steps forward over the summer wind, and actually stretched out his hand directly to the hilt of the knife on his waist.

"Meeting is fate, I may be able to help you solve your troubles."

.....

At this moment, Xia Feng's pupils instantly widened.

This person's just one hand-to-hand knife drawing action would bring him such a great sense of oppression, even if it wasn't aimed at him!

"You ........"

Without waiting for Xia Feng's words to speak, the cherry blossom long knife was instantly unsheathed, and in the next second, a force that seemed to be enough to squeeze the air to the imbalance exploded in place.

The blade went from top to bottom, with the momentum of opening the world, and slashed straight towards the infinite sea.

"Boom!"

With a knife cut out, Xia Feng's only left eye reflected the sea surface that was divided into two, and the sword qi was unstoppable, cutting the sea alive!

"Whew!"

The separated sea surface lasted less than a second, but that was enough to attract the attention of the monster lurking in the nearby seas.

With a roar, the huge body rushed out of the sea and appeared a hundred meters away from the shore.

....

Everything happened too suddenly, and Xia Feng was already stupid.

Looking at the sea that had just been separated in an instant, he couldn't tell for a moment whether this was a sword technique or a source stone technique.

However, at this time, the sea monster was a hundred meters from the shore.

If you don't have a ship, you can't approach it at all, and if you can't get close, you won't be able to use even a thousand skills.

"You ........"

Xia Feng's words were interrupted again, but this time, it was a thunderbolt in the sky that interrupted him.

"Boom!"

A bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, and in the next second, the figure that had just cut the sea apart had disappeared.

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, this person's explosive power stepped out of a huge crater in the sand on the coast, and the whole person seemed to turn into a whirlwind and rushed straight to the sea.

There was no boat, no oars, Xiao Se's figure tread the waves, and the cold light on the tip of the knife turned into a meteor.

Looking at the figure shuttling above the sea without relying on any external force, Xia Feng was really shocked this time.

He knows very well that it's not just about speed and power.

In order to achieve such speed and stability, we must be united with nature and man, and truly see the sea as if it were flat.

....

Lightning staggered in the sky covered with black clouds, and bursts of thunder rolled and rolled.

On the sea, the distance of 100 meters came in an instant, the cherry blossom knife reversed, and in the next second, the shadow of the sword in the sky had already shrouded the huge body of the sea monster.

"Puff puff!"

There was no qualification to fight back, and in a second, a hundred slashes had fallen, and the hard black scales of the sea monster were torn apart by the blade.

"Puff puff!"

The tiny figure flew up and down the surface of the sea, as if it had been strafed from a distance by a Gatling, and countless blood mist erupted from the sea monster's body, and with its agility, it could not even catch the trace of the knife striker.

"Ding!"

In the snap of a finger, the last slash of the slash quietly settled, and the cherry blossom long knife was already in the sheath.

Has it begun?

It's over.

Under the lightning and thunder of the sky, blood stained the entire sea red.

The shattered sea monster sank deep into the ocean without even wailing.

.....

During the whole process, not a single drop of blood was spattered on the person's body.

Even the golden ears of mature grass that were always in the mouth, not a single grain of grass fell.
