Chapter 404: Letters from the Seaside, All Kinds of Visions
It can be seen that this pure white pigeon must have gone through a very difficult journey.
Despite its full spurt, its stance is unstable, wobbly, and seemingly ready to fall at any moment.
Seeing this, Zhao Ya immediately stretched out his finger and gently flicked the air in front of him.
Then a magical scene happened.
An invisible ripple spread quickly and rushed in front of the carrier pigeon in an instant.
Then a soft force was like a pair of invisible big hands, gently lifting the exhausted carrier pigeon and bringing it to Zhao Ya.
Zhao Ya caught it, and after taking off the letter bag tied between his legs, he quickly took out a piece of dried meat and stuffed it into the carrier pigeon's mouth, and gently stroked the feathers on its body.
The pure power of mana quickly soothed its muscles that had spasmed from exhaustion.
This kind of carrier pigeon is actually a strange beast, otherwise it would not be possible to cross the distance of tens of thousands of miles and send the information accurately.
So under Zhao Ya's actions, it quickly recovered.
Immediately after, I saw it flapping its wings and flying up from Zhao Ya's hand, hovering in the air a few times before landing on his shoulder, and then tilted its head to look at Zhao Ya, as if waiting for his response.
Zhao Ya smiled when he saw this, and then opened the letter bag and took out the letter paper inside.
Pigeons can't carry anything too heavy, so the paper is only a thin page, and the information written on it is very brief.
The letter was sent by Kong to the east.
Zhao Ya had already agreed when he was about to separate before, and after he led the team into the northern snowfield next summer, he must pass on the message to Zhao Ya at any time.
Especially about every move of the Wufu Sea, we must pay close attention to and report.
So this summer, Zhao Ya received no less than three or four letters from the northern snowfield, and the content recorded in them once again confirmed Zhao Ya's previous guess.
The changes in the sea of Wufu are really becoming more and more frequent.
The fog upwelling, which was very rare before, happened three or four times this summer, and the "Sea Dragon King's patrol" has become a commonplace.
However, because the people were on guard against the sea this time, the fog upwelled several times did not cause much damage.
On the contrary, because of the assistance of the leader of the white bird, Kong Xiangdong's income this year was far better than in previous years.
Everyone who catches the sea is smiling.
This has also led to a booming business in the town than in previous years.
Kong Xiangdong once mentioned in a letter that even the girls who accompanied the wine were very grateful to Zhao Ya, and thought that the reason for this good year was largely due to him.
Zhao Ya didn't care too much about this, he was more concerned that now that the summer was coming to an end, it stands to reason that Kong Xiangdong should be busy leading people to retreat at this time, so why bother sending a letter over?
And after reading this letter, Zhao Ya's face gradually became solemn.
It's brief, but the message is important.
Kong Xiangdong said in the letter that this year's Wufu Sea does not know what's wrong, the climate is very abnormal, even if it is now early autumn, the temperature is still very high.
Of course.
This high is relative to the average temperature of Wufuhai in previous years, not that it has reached the level of seventeen or eighteen degrees all of a sudden, but has remained around ten degrees below zero.
That's fine.
You must know that in previous years, even in the middle of summer, the temperature of the Wufu Sea has not reached this height.
Not only that, but even the polar night seems to be long overdue.
To this day, the sun still hangs in the sky, bringing a small but warm light to the sea of Wuyu.
These two major anomalies have made many seafarers who have been begging for a living on the seashore all year round feel incredible.
But these doubts were soon diluted by another important discovery.
Under this abnormal temperature, the output of the sea has also increased greatly.
After each low tide, there are countless scaly fish, crabs and shellfish on the seabed.
This kind of scene is simply the dream of every seafarer, so these people are all crazy.
Even if the other sea-catching teams are not like Kong Xiangdong and them, with the help of eating birds for nothing, but in this kind of scene like picking up money, these sea-catching people are also full of harvest.
But Kong Xiangdong smelled danger from it.
For this reason, he tried his best to defy public opinion, ignoring the pleas of his men who were rushing to the sea, and forcibly ordered them to relocate.
But Kong Xiangdong also wanted to know what the hell was going on in this Wufu Sea, so he didn't completely leave the northern snowfield.
He led the people to the Daisetsuzan Mountains, which were still some distance from the sea, and could flee as soon as possible in case of danger.
At the same time, Kong Xiangdong also sent people to the beach every day to observe and record the movements of Wufu Sea.
At the end of the letter, Kong Xiangdong also asked Zhao Ya if his decision was correct.
Zhao Ya put the letter away, groaned slightly, then turned around and went back to the house, took out a pen and paper, and wrote a reply.
The content of the letter is similarly simple.
First of all, Zhao Ya affirmed Kong Xiangdong's approach.
The so-called abnormal things must have demons.
In previous years, the environment was extremely harsh, and the sea suddenly became abnormal, not only the temperature was much higher than in previous years, but even the seafood was much higher.
Coupled with the increasingly frequent fog upwelling, this obviously won't be the so-called "Sea Dragon King" really showing mercy.
After all, behind the temptation of abnormality, there must be a huge risk.
Secondly, Zhao Ya also told Kong Xiangdong that he must ensure his safety and act when the opportunity arises.
If this state of affairs persists in a few days, then leave the northern snowfields with the party first.
The reason why Zhao Ya said this was because he knew that Kong Xiangdong must be facing tremendous pressure at this time.
On the one hand, there are other sea-catchers who make a lot of money every day, and on the other hand, they can only stay in front of the snowy mountain.
The contrast between this is so great, that is, Kong Xiangdong, a leader with great prestige.
If it were someone else, it is estimated that his subordinates would have been in trouble a long time ago.
Even so, Zhao Ya could guess the pressure Kong Xiangdong was bearing.
If this state of affairs continues in a few days, then no matter how high Kong Xiangdong's usual prestige is, it is estimated that it will be difficult to convince the public.
After all, nothing compares to naked interests.
It is true that Kong Xiangdong can temporarily control the situation.
But under the pressure of a long time, it will only lead to discouragement, and eventually cause the team to fall apart, and it will be too late to save the situation.
If Kong Xiangdong is still not at ease, he can retreat outside the northern snowfield, and then observe the movement through the white bird leader.
After writing this, Zhao Ya carefully checked it again, and after making sure that nothing was missing, he put it into the letter bag and tied it to the pigeon's leg.
During the whole process, the carrier pigeon waited very obediently, and then looked at Zhao Ya with black oil like bean-like eyes.
Zhao Ya smiled, reached out and took out a few more dried meat from his arms, and then fed them to the carrier pigeon.
"Stored in the stomach, digested slowly on the way!"
After listening to the instructions, the carrier pigeon nodded lightly as if it understood, and then flapped its wings and flew into the sky, hovering over Zhao Ya.
"I'm lazy!"
Zhao Ya complained, and then flicked the air in front of him again.
Immediately, an invisible ripple of spiritual power pushed the carrier pigeon behind it, helping it quickly descend the mountain.
It's like a ship encountering a tailwind while sailing on the sea, which can greatly save energy.
And with Zhao Ya's current strength, he can send this carrier pigeon a hundred miles away.
Of course, this is also due to the small size and light weight of this pigeon, as well as the conscious cooperation.
At the beginning, Zhao Ya was also for the purpose of experimenting, so he tried it.
Unexpectedly, this carrier pigeon remembered it, and waited for Zhao Ya to send it this "hitchhiking" every time he returned.
After seeing the carrier pigeon go away, Zhao Ya shook his head with a smile, and then left the small courtyard and went to the former Shimen Contribution Office, where he continued to discuss with Shen Yunshen and Qin Jianji about sorting out the mastery of Canglong Temple.
The distance between Canglong Temple and the northern snowfield, if you walk, is at least more than 20,000 miles.
But the carrier pigeon is different because it flies at a high speed, which can avoid the interference of mountains and birds of prey, and can travel in a straight line.
But even in this case, the straight-line distance is thousands of miles away.
This distance is a challenge even for a carrier pigeon that is a strange beast, and it takes about four days to travel at full strength.
And just as the carrier pigeon was heading towards the northern snowfield, in the camp in front of the snowy mountain, a group of people were hiding in a tent drinking and chatting.
Because of the mountain peaks, even before the sun set, the camp area was already in darkness.
Because there was a light snow in the evening, the temperature was a little low, but this was not worth mentioning at all for this group of seafarers who were used to begging for a living on the Wufu Sea.
For example, in this tent at this time, some people are taking off their shirts and drinking shirtless.
The wine is all good wine, and even the dishes are not willing to eat by these people who rushed to the sea in previous years.
But this year is different.
Especially with the help of the leader of the white bird, these sea catchers under Kong Xiangdong have all gained a lot, and they will naturally spend a lot of money.
But at this moment, despite the good wine and food, the atmosphere in the tent was a little strange.
If these sea-catchers were not only grateful to their leaders before, but also to Dade, now with the passage of time, many people have a strange feeling in their hearts.
Especially after hearing first-hand about the daily harvest of those who are still staying on the beach of Wuyu, many people's minds have quietly changed.
"Today, the big boss sent Xiao Liuzi to the beach to detect the situation, according to what he said after he came back, now those seafarers on the beach are making crazy money, and they can harvest at least three buckets of dried fish every day, not to mention other harvests." Someone whispered while drinking.
The remarks made the atmosphere inside the tent even more dreary.
There was envy in some people's eyes.
After all, it's all money!
You must know that even in the best year, each of them only harvests more than a bucket of dried fish per day on average, and the rest of the harvest is no different from previous years.
It was enough to make them ecstatic.
One can imagine how crazy those who harvest two or three buckets of dried fish a day must be.
Suddenly.
Someone slapped the table heavily and said with a full of complaints: "I really don't understand why the big boss should be so cautious. ”
"Isn't it that this year's temperature is a little higher than in previous years, and the polar night is a little late, not to mention that we should seize this God-given opportunity to make a windfall, and actually hide in front of this snowy mountain for the so-called safety, resulting in our brothers can only watch others make a fortune on the beach, which is really embarrassing."
The speaker's face was full of beard, but it was clear that he had some prestige among these seafarers, and his words resonated with many people.
"Who said it wasn't, I don't understand what the big boss who was not afraid of the sky and the earth in the past, what is he afraid of this time? Could it be that you were frightened by the fog upsurge last year? Someone chimed in.
"This fog upsurge is really terrifying, but as long as you send someone to look out and find it in advance, it's actually nothing." The bearded man said.
"I've heard that the big boss seems to have taken refuge here because he thought this year's unusual weather was a sign of some kind of ominousness."
"Then why don't you just leave? Did you deliberately let our brothers hide in this place to watch others get rich? Someone suddenly sneered.
This was very polite, and everyone turned their eyes to the person who spoke, only to realize that the speaker was a young man who had joined this year.
"Shhhh Someone warned.
The young man also felt a little speechless, so he kept his mouth shut for the time being.
"I also heard that the reason why the big boss hid here and sent people to the beach every day to check the latest developments, in order to report the latest situation to the young master last year."
Hearing this, many people closed their mouths, and even the bearded guest who was the first to complain was silent.
Because almost all of the people present have inherited Zhao Ya's kindness, not to mention last year's life-saving grace, let's just say that the reason why they have been able to harvest a lot this year is largely due to the white bird-eating leader that Zhao Ya "gifted" to the big leader.
So when they heard it was because of him, these people stopped talking.
But the young man who had just spoken didn't care.
Because he only joined this year, he didn't have any impression of Zhao Ya, so naturally he didn't have to worry about it.
Therefore, he took the lead in saying: "No matter who it is, it is not a way to delay like this!" ”
"Everyone, I'm not the same as you, you've all earned money for a few years, you all have some savings in hand, you don't have to worry, but I'm different, I'm a famine all over my ass now, just waiting for this time to go back and turn over."
"So I don't know what you guys think, I'm going to secretly go to the beach tomorrow to see if I can get something back, if there is anything together?"
Hearing the young man's words, many people's faces showed a look of emotion.
But when they thought of Kong Xiangdong's prestige, these people wilted again.
Seeing this scene, the young man sneered.
"Okay, then I'll go by myself tomorrow, go back to sleep, and say goodbye."
After saying that, the man stood up and was about to go out, but at this moment, the door curtain was raised, and then Kong Xiangdong walked in from the outside.
