Chapter 71: Wandao Lake (Congratulations to Elvin2016 Silver Alliance!) )
There are 32 counties in Vietnam.
Among them, Yu County is located in the north, and the area is two or three times the size of ordinary counties.
The county has a dense water network, frequent boats and boats in the river, and wooden and stone bridges can be seen everywhere, which is a different scene compared with the surroundings of Qingzhu Shanfang City.
Wandao Lake.
Dock.
Countless fishing boats are clustered in one place, hundreds of boats compete for the current, and the lake is flooded with a slight wave, shining in the sun, like scales.
When Fang Xi came to the wharf, he saw many fishermen wearing green hats, green robes, and gray or black cage pants, sitting or standing on the side of the road, selling their catches.
"Baby, do you want a big green carp?"
An old fisherman smiled and spoke.
"No, I want to find a boat and drive into the depths of Wandao Lake."
Fang Xi took out a piece of silver.
The dazzling light made many fishermen's eyes light up, but they shook their heads again and again: "The depths of this Wandao Lake are very dangerous, don't you dare to go......
"It is said that in the depths of this Wandao Lake, there are immortals!"
"We can only rely on the lake to make a living, and we don't dare to offend the immortals, otherwise the immortals will blame, and there will be no catch in the coming year, and the big guys will have to drink the northwest wind!"
……
Seeing that there were more and more fishermen coming over, Fang Xi smiled and exchanged the silver for an ingot of gold: "Go once, this gold is enough for you to buy a field and a house, and you don't have to go into the water to fish for the rest of your life......"
"I'll go!" A young fisherman immediately stood up: "Childe wants to go to find immortals, right?" In fact, the little one once carried a few young heroes to the depths of the lake to search for fairy fate......"
"Anything else?"
Fang Xi took a look, under the so-called heavy reward, there must be a brave man.
He took out a piece of gold, and sure enough, it attracted many fishermen.
Fang Xi didn't say much, went to their respective boats to take a look, and finally chose a boat with a red carp pattern depicted on the bow.
The boss of the ship looked to be forty or fifty years old, with thick bones and a weathered face, but in fact he was only in his thirties, and he called himself 'the boss of the sea'.
Fang Xi chose the boat, and the sea boss propped up the penny, slowly sailed the boat away from the dock, and headed for the lake.
A few hours later.
Dusk came, and the water was golden with a hint of reddish.
The sea boss propped up the boat, opened his throat, and sang a fishing song: "The reeds are fluttering, hey...... The boat walks quietly, hey...... Hey ...... catch more fish in the coming year."
The sun sets, the fishing songs sing late, but it also has a unique style.
Fang Xi stood on top of the hull, feeling the breeze blowing, and stretched comfortably.
"Would you like dinner?"
At this time, a woman came out of the cabin of the small canopy boat and asked softly.
She looks younger than Boss Hai, with a small white flower on her sideburns, and she must have been quite beautiful when she was young.
For fishermen, a canopy boat is a home, and birth, old age, sickness and death are all on board.
This woman is naturally the Hun family of Boss Hai.
"Well...... Let's have a bowl of fish soup! ”
Fang Xi nodded, and casually threw a silver bean over.
The woman received the reward, and immediately returned to the cabin, where she cooked a crucian carp with her hands and feet.
This fish head and fish bones are stewed in soup, the soup is thick and white, and only a little hair and salt are sprinkled, and the taste is very delicious.
The fish is thinly sliced and grilled over low heat until slightly browned, and it is also full of aroma.
Paired with home-brewed local sake, it also has a unique flavor.
Fang Xi ate very happily and rewarded another silver bean.
The woman accepted the silver beans, but did not leave, and Jiao Didi asked, "The night dew is heavy, does the son need to serve?" ”
Ancient boat girls, most of them had part-time jobs, and Fang Xi was not surprised, so she directly shook her head and refused at this time.
Seeing this scene, the sea boss who had been holding the boat couldn't help but sigh secretly.
He lives on the shore of Wandao Lake all year round, coming and going in the wind and rain, although he has no savings, but he always has eyesight.
The red carp at the bow of the boat is the highest glory of the fisherman's family - in Wandao Lake, after the wind and waves, there will occasionally appear a kind of carp with red scales and dragon whiskers, which is very valuable, but it is also extremely difficult to catch, and only the boatman who has successfully caught this red carp can engrave a mark on the bow of the boat.
Boss Hai was originally able to barely make a living by relying on fishing skills, but the reason why he stood up to take over Fang Xi's business was to see that this young man was very extraordinary.
is not a son with fine clothes and food, or a young man who travels the rivers and lakes.
If you can borrow its seeds, maybe the younger generations will be able to learn and practice martial arts and get rid of the hard work of fishing.
The really poor ancients didn't really care much about this kind of thing.
Unexpectedly, that son couldn't look down on him at all.
His sigh seemed to have been heard by Fang Xi as well.
Fang Xi came to the bow of the boat, pointed out the direction for the sea boss, and said at the same time: "Don't worry, as long as you get to the place, my son will be rewarded!" ”
……
Five days later.
"Childe...... After this golden head, we don't dare to continue in......"
Hai Boss pointed to a reef that protruded from the lake not far away, resembling a big ao, and said to Fang Xi: "The fishermen in our area generally only dare to fish near the lake, and there are very few who can go deep into here...... And according to our experience, if we go deeper, there will be a big disaster! ”
"Well, it's not bad to be here."
Fang Xi took out Ge Hongdan's map and looked at it, and couldn't help nodding.
The reason why he hired a ship was just that he didn't want to fly too far in the black clouds.
When I arrived at Jinaotou, it was very close to Baochuanfang City.
After that, Fang Xi directly slapped the storage bag.
A dark cloud emerged and swarmed around him, sending him flying from the deck.
"You two, you can go back."
Fang Xi commanded, dropped a gold ingot, and drove the black cloud away.
"This ......"
The sea boss was stupid, and suddenly knelt down and kowtowed again and again: "The immortal master is merciful and compassionate...... Immortal master is not strange, immortal master is not strange! ”
When he got up and saw him happily putting the gold into his arms, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed: "Alas...... It would be nice if the Immortal Master took a fancy to you......"
Perhaps, you will be able to cross the immortal seed and let future generations also embark on the road of cultivating immortals.
……
Hofunabo City is located on Hofune Island.
The island is boxy and resembles a treasure ship, hence its name.
On the island, there is a first-order spiritual vein, which was later occupied by the Arowana Zhong clan and transformed into Fang City, and around Fang City, there are also terraced fields, which are full of spiritual rice.
Fang Xi changed his face, covered half of his face again, and controlled the black cloud pocket, and in just half an hour, he came to Treasure Boat Island.
There was no ban on the sky above the island, so he flew all the way through the uneven terraced rice fields to the entrance of Fang City.
Looking at the Lingnong who worked the ground, occasionally raised their heads, and their eyes were full of envy, Fang Xi's heart was also inexplicable for a while.
If he hadn't had the golden finger, he might still be a Lingnong in Qingzhu Mountain, and then he would have been affected during the battle of the destruction of the Situ family......
"This immortal master is polite, but it's the first time you've come to Fang City?"
At the gate of Fang City, there were a few mortals squatting, and when they saw Fang Xi's magic weapon landing, they immediately surrounded them: "We are local guides, and we know the inside of Fang City well......
"Well, let's do it!"
Fang Xi ordered a little guy in green clothes.
This little guy immediately smiled, dispersed the other peers, and led the way for Fang Xi in front: "You don't need a voucher to enter Baochuanfang City, and you don't need to pay spirit stones...... But if you don't leave at night, you will be caught by the patrolling monks, but you will have to suffer...... This immortal master, hired by Xia, only needs one spirit crystal a day! In Xia Mo Tsing Yi, I am fortunate to meet the immortal master today......"
"You...... Seems to be just mortal? ”
Fang Xi asked Mo Qingyi to lead the way in front and said casually.
Mentioning this, Mo Qingyi suddenly felt a little gloomy: "I am stupid, and I have not inherited my grandfather's spiritual root qualifications......"
After chatting a few more words, Fang Xi learned that this Wandao Lake was different from Qingzhu Mountain, there were a large number of descendants of monks, many of whom had no spiritual roots, but they were also raised on the islands, forming villages and towns everywhere.
Mortals who can live near Fang City and earn a job must be the direct line of monks within three generations.
'Are these islands even equivalent to small countries?' ’
'Hmm...... After all, it is said that it is an island, but it is actually quite large, and in the previous life Fuso, it could produce a daimyo of hundreds of thousands or even millions of stones......
Fang Xi slandered in his heart, and immediately smiled: "You do things well, the benefits are indispensable to yours...... I'm going to sell some demon beast materials, and at the same time purchase a body refining technique, some puppets, and the inheritance of the beast control technique......"
Cultivating martial arts in Da Liang before was entirely because the Great Liang martial arts were quickly completed, and no materials were needed, which helped to break through the qi and blood when building the foundation.
Changing to the body refining method of the immortal cultivation realm, he wanted to cultivate to the current threefold body refinement, and the spirit stones spent were gone.
At least, you have to eat spiritual rice all at once, and then combine it with a medicinal bath made of various elixirs, as well as elixirs......
Overall, it is still more cost-effective to do the Great Liang Martial Arts.
But now, there is no way forward after the Grandmaster, and Fang Xi must also be prepared to jump ship.
Mo Qingyi thought for a while: "If you sell demon beast materials, there are several seniors in the stall area who have been buying all kinds of demon beast materials for a long time, but the one with the best reputation is the 'Longmen Pavilion' opened by the Zhong family!" ”
"As for puppetry? Please forgive the little loneliness who has not heard of any related inheritances for sale...... If it is the art of beast control, there is a Miao Immortal Master, who has a three-headed spirit pet by his side, and there is probably a relevant inheritance, so you can ask about it. ”
"Lead the way ahead, go to Longmen Pavilion first!" Fang Xi nodded, still satisfied with this guide.
If he were to come, I don't know how much time and energy it would take to find out these situations.
Dragon Gate Pavilion.
Arowana Zhong's main business is to raise spirit fish, the spirit fish raised is 'green jade carp', the taste is delicious, the aura contained in it is also very mild, especially suitable for water spirit root monks to take, long-term consumption is also equivalent to taking pills to cultivate, and there is no erysipelas.
It is rumored that among the thousands of green jade carp, there may also be a fish king, this fish king has awakened a little dragon blood, nicknamed 'Little Green Dragon'!
This 'little green dragon' can be made into a 'green dragon soup' by adding a few cherished elixirs, even though it is beneficial to the foundation building and overhaul.
It's a pity that most of the casual cultivators can't smell what the Qinglong soup tastes like in their lifetime.
This kind of spiritual object, except for a small part of the Min Clan's own use, most of them have to be paid tribute to Xuantian Sect in exchange for cherished resources such as Zhuji Dan.
