Chapter 81: Nantian Island
"Big brother! You said your boat sank? All dead? You are the only one who is good at swimming and finally swam to our island? The group of village women slowly stood up, their eyes were blank, their minds were undergoing earth-shaking changes, and the false memories modified by Song Tao were invading their sea of consciousness! Among them, a chubby aunt was the first to wake up, looked at Song Tao and asked with concern.
"Yes! Aunt. Song Tao replied quickly. Looking at his current appearance, although his clothes have long been dry, he is just barefoot, wearing shoes and socks, a shawl, and his trouser legs are pulled one high and one low, and he does look a little embarrassed.
"How pitiful! Come back to the village with us, rest and talk! A thin lady squeezed over from behind and said enthusiastically.
Song Tao nodded, put on a smile, and followed the group of chattering women towards the village slowly.
Nestled beneath the dragon-shaped mountains, the village is surrounded by lush greenery, with fishing nets drying in front of stone houses, and many elderly people sitting on large rocks in front of their doors, basking in the sun. A few children walked through the house with their bare buttocks, and there was a sound of laughter and slapstick in the distance......
It seems that this is a typical peaceful life in a fishing village, but there is a trace of sadness on the faces of those old people. There were not a few young people in the whole village, and they looked lifeless!
"Village Chief! Chief! The chubby aunt shouted impatiently before she had even entered the village. With her loud voice, an old man with dark skin and wrinkles slowly walked out of a stone house at the entrance of the village.
"Aunt Niu, aren't you going to catch the sea? Why did you come back so early today! The old village chief squinted his eyes and stretched impatiently, and casually put on a white cloth coat he was holding in his hand.
"Village Chief! We found a young man! The fat aunt Niu was quick to talk, and pushed Song Tao out from behind her as she spoke.
"Young man?" The old village chief squinted at Song Tao and asked strangely: "Our Nantian Island is so remote, judging by your clothes, you should be the son of a big family, right?" How did you come here alone? Aunt Niu hurriedly took a few steps forward, pointing fingers at the memory of Song Tao in her mind and saying what happened to Song Tao.
Song Tao raised his head lightly and looked towards the mountains behind the villa. I saw that the dragon-shaped mountain range was winding, and there were cliffs everywhere, and it seemed that there was no way to go up! Halfway up the mountainside, thick clouds and mist shrouded it, making it impossible to see the shape of the mountain peaks no matter how hard you try! Song Tao's eyes flashed, and the clouds and mist didn't seem to be natural, but man-made! He silently released a trace of his divine sense and leaned towards the clouds, not long! Song Tao actually felt a shock in his heart, and that trace of divine consciousness was actually bounced out by the clouds! Where are the clouds? It's clearly a ban!
"Young man? I said, young man, what's wrong with you? Song Tao was stunned and only felt that a rough big hand gently patted his shoulder, he was startled, his true anger gushed out, and he ejected the old village chief far away! Oops! The old village chief couldn't help but shoot a trace of fear in his eyes! You? ”
"Ahh I'm sorry! Chief! I've been practicing martial arts since I was a child! Too much alertness! I was a little distracted just now! I forgot you were calling me! Song Tao immediately came to his senses, and reached out to support the old village chief with a smile on his face. After listening to his explanation, the old village chief was relieved and slowly stood up: "My old bones can't stand the toss!" ”
"Young man! You're going to live in my house first? After this incident, the old village chief looked at him with a bit of vigilance in his eyes!
"What about the mountain? Is there anyone living there? Song Tao slowly stretched out a finger and pointed to the thick layer of clouds and mist.
I saw that the expressions of everyone in the village changed greatly when they heard this, and the old village chief looked around vigilantly, "Shhhhhh Don't point fingers and don't talk nonsense! After watching for a long time, there was no movement, and then he whispered to Song Tao: "That mountain is the residence of the immortals!" Don't dare to speak up! ”
"Immortals?" Song Tao couldn't help but laugh dumbly, remembering the names of those village women when they first saw him, and immediately understood, it seems that there must be monks on the mountain, but I don't know if it's a loose cultivator? It's still a sect!
However, with that cloud-like prohibition shroud, it is inconvenient for me to use my divine sense to forcibly penetrate, so let's wait first!
At that moment, he followed the old village chief into the stone house.
After living in this small fishing village for a few days, Song Tao gradually became familiar with everyone, and heard some news under the side knock, it turned out that this island was called Nantian Island, with a total size of 300,000 acres on the whole island, and there were three villages, all of which made a living from fishing. Most of the people living on the island are mortals, the mountain is called Nanxian Mountain, named after the immortals on it, it is said that I don't know how long ago, the wind and clouds changed color, nine days of thunder, the mountain suddenly gushed out a thick mist to surround the top of the mountain, since then, this mountain has become a forbidden place, anyone who steps into the mountain range will be missing, I don't know whether it is dead or alive......
Just a hundred years ago, suddenly, a voice appeared, and this voice was like thunder in the sky, extremely majestic! At that moment, he echoed over this island, saying that he was the god who lived on this island, and it was he who protected the safety of mortals on the island, and from that day on, the young adults of the whole island were ordered to go to the sea to collect deep-sea pearls for him, the size and specifications were strictly defined, and they were offered once a month, and those who did not meet the requirements were killed!
All the mortals in the three villages on Nantian Island were frightened, and from that day on, people began deep-sea pearl diving, which was a chore! Not to mention the many sea beasts in the deep sea, even if the lucky immortal picked the pearl back, if the size and size do not meet the requirements of the gods, it is also a dead end! It's not that the people on this island haven't thought of escaping from this place, but once someone has this idea, they just don't say it, and once they put it into action, they will bleed to death! The rest of the people no longer dared to escape, and could only live under the shadow of this god so hard...... Now there are not many young adults left on this island, all of them are old, weak, sick and disabled, helplessly surviving on the island, waiting for the day of death......
Hum! It seems that the monks on this island are not very good at cultivation, and their character is even lower! Bullying some ordinary people like this! Song Tao was furious when he heard this. He sneered and thought to himself: Do you like Mingzhu? I have the best pearl in me, but I don't know if you can eat it!
At that moment, he found an excuse to step out of the village and walk towards the mountain range.
In the past few days, the old village chief has been secretly watching his every move, and at this moment, he couldn't help but panic when he actually wanted to go up the mountain, and shouted behind him: "Little brother! You can't go up the mountain! Don't go! ”
Song Tao just smiled slightly: "It's okay!" "A wave of your hand! Chasing the wind, in a cloud of white light, his figure gradually dissipated, shooting like a meteor above the mountain range!
The old village chief stared blankly at the place where the white light disappeared, and ...... for a long time Fang came back to his senses, and his old tears suddenly swept horizontally: "It's a fairy!" Is it the gods who have come to save us? After speaking, he knelt on the ground and bowed deeply towards the place where Song Tao disappeared......
I haven't looked up for a long time......
