Chapter 13: The Whale Hunt

Time flies, and it is another two years, like a white horse passing by, fleeting.

Cheng Xiao broke through to the seventeenth level, because the first soul ring was absorbed by leapfrogging, and after absorbing the soul ring, his soul power directly came to the twelfth level, and his cultivation in the past two years has increased by a total of five levels.

At this time, Tang San and Xiao Wu were already twenty-seven levels, and they had also only improved by five levels.

It seems that the gap has not widened, but Cheng Xiao knows very well that the cultivation difficulty of the Great Soul Master is much higher than that of the Soul Master stage, and Tang San and the others have improved by nearly seven levels in two years at the Soul Master stage.

This is a first-mover advantage, and the uniform acceleration movement will inevitably lag behind the constant speed movement that has been maintaining a high speed, and it is impossible for the junior students to surpass the perennial first student in two years.

There is no way to erase the first-mover advantage with conventional methods, and you have to think of some strange tricks.

"It seems that we must go to the Eyes of Ice and Fire first, and the opportunity there cannot be given to Tang San." Cheng Xiao planned to put Xiancao on the agenda, after all, this was his best chance to overtake in the corner.

It's just that now that the eyes of ice and fire are occupied by Poison Douluo, his strength is weak, and he is not enough to negotiate conditions with others.

After pondering for more than half a month, Cheng Xiao still didn't have much of a clue, and the summer vacation of the fifth grade was coming.

"Xiao'er, you are familiar with these things in the store over the years, and you will follow me to run the purchase channel this summer." Cheng Xiao's uncle, Cheng Yu said.

The Cheng family provided whale oil to the nobles, whale oil is smokeless and fragrant, and has always been sought after by all nobles, and even the royal family has set whale oil as a rigid need.

The Cheng family has always had a stable sales channel, and they don't have to worry about not being able to sell, so the Cheng family is not a nobleman, but it can be regarded as a wealthy family in Notting City.

Cheng's father took Cheng Xiao before, but when his father died a few years ago, his uncle took over the family business and took Cheng Xiao by the way.

"Yes, uncle."

Cheng Xiao nodded, his innate soul power is obvious to all, although he is now a soul master, the family does not expect him to be more successful on this road, and plans to let Cheng Xiao take over the family business when he becomes an adult.

After his father passed away, his mother has always looked forward to him, and in order to live up to his mother's expectations, Cheng Xiao chose the summer vacation to help the family take care of business. Title Douluo and the road to becoming a god are all things in the future, people should focus on their feet, no one can rely on dreaming every day to counterattack.

"You have to remember the route of this way, you will need to run in the future, and you have to pay attention to ......" Along the way, Uncle Cheng Yu almost taught Cheng Xiao.

After ten days of trekking, the procurement team finally came to a small seaside town - "Whale Hunting City".

As soon as you enter the small town, the scene is in full swing, and the noisy trading and selling sound is poured into your ears, showing the prosperity of the city.

Whale Hunt City is famous for whale oil, almost all the whale oil in the entire continent, half of it comes from here, whale oil is produced from June to August every year, during this time of year, almost all whale oil merchants in the mainland will come here to buy whale oil, it is not lively.

"Let's go, we don't buy in the city, we have special cooperative hunters, so we don't need to buy second-hand goods here." After arranging a hotel for the team, Cheng Yu took Cheng Xiao out of the team: "The route is not the most important, this cooperative hunter is the foundation of our family's survival, and we must not let others follow." ”

After walking for nearly 20 miles, crossing a mountain, and almost getting dark, the two came to a village.

"Bang bang!" Cheng Yu came to a house and knocked on the door.

"Who?"

"Lao Lu, I, Cheng Yu."

"Hahaha, I knew it was you, I pinched my fingers and calculated, it should be just a few days, if you don't come again, I'm afraid you won't be able to catch the first dish."

With a creak, the door opened, and it was a tanned man who opened the door, and after seeing Cheng Yu, he immediately gave Cheng Yu a big hug, and then they greeted him.

"What is this?" After greeting Cheng Yu, Lao Lu looked at the young man behind Cheng Yu with a puzzled face.

"This is my eldest brother's son, and when he becomes an adult, he will take over the family business, and I will take him on a trip today." Cheng Yu introduced the two to each other: "Lu Han, the hunter who cooperates with our family, all the whale oil in our hands is purchased from him. It's called Uncle Lu. ”

"Uncle Lu!"

"Eh, yes, this kid is good! This body is bones, and he looks like he is a tough guy when he grows up, hahaha! Lu Han welcomed the two into the house: "Daughter-in-law, get two plates of appetizers, the second journey is here, I will have a drink with him if we live here today." ”

At the wine table, Cheng Xiao gradually understood the status of this village.

This village is called Moon Village, and there is a Moon Bay nearby, and this village has mastered a technique of luring and hunting demon whales since a long time ago, and has been cooperating in a village way, which is extremely cohesive.

It's not so much a village as a loose sect built around this secret art.

The village holds a whale hunt from June to August every year, and a grand bonfire feast is held in the evening, where the hunted whales are boiled into whale oil, which is distributed to the villagers according to the rank and contribution system within the village, and then the hunters sell it at a high price.

Reputable Orion will have long-term cooperative buyers and have exclusivity; And some people with poor reputation will try to cooperate at the beginning, but over time they will be abandoned by buyers, and they can only go to Whale Hunt City to sell, deceiving some people who don't know how to do it.

"No wonder my uncle said that he couldn't bring someone here, it turned out that he was afraid that someone would pry away his cooperation." Watching the two of them push the cup and change the lamp, Cheng Xiao muttered.

It wasn't until late at night that the two got drunk and ended the meal.

Three days later, the whale hunt began.

Cheng Xiao saw this spectacular scene for the first time, dozens of large ships went out to sea together, and the sailors shouted and set sail, tearing the waves and sailing into the sea.

Cheng Xiao and Cheng Yu boarded a ship with Lu Han and personally felt the fierceness and pride of the conference.

"Lao Lu, can you have last year's amount this time?"

"How can you say for sure? Our secret technique is only to lure and hunt, and we can't make predictions, not to see how many demon whales can come to this sea this year. ”

After ten days of sailing, the fleet finally arrived at a sea area, early in the morning, Cheng Xiao was woken up by a whistle, he rubbed his sleepy eyes, came to the deck, and the scene in front of him directly shocked him.

I saw that all the soul masters on the fleet were standing on the deck, and they all released their martial souls, all of them were sea soul beast martial souls, these sea soul masters were at least soul venerables, and the strongest ones had reached the level of soul emperors.

Cheng Xiao saw Lao Lu, and to his surprise, this swarthy man with an honest face turned out to be a soul venerable!

"It's really unseemly." Cheng Xiao tsk.

They had words in their mouths, as if they were making some kind of rhythm, and the rhythm resonated, and it didn't take long to attract a group of demon whales, which seemed to be enchanted, swimming around the fleet, and from time to time spewing out a column of water that soared into the sky, reflecting a rainbow of light under the light of the sun.

The fleet began to return, luring the demon whales to follow the fleet, until they returned to Moon Bay, and the sea soul masters showed their fangs, drove the whales into Moon Bay, and then began to kill mercilessly.

The villagers used the secret art they had mastered to kill, and these Grey Eye Demon Whales had no power to resist, it was a massacre! One-sided slaughter!

Countless soul rings rose, most of them were purple soul rings, and a few black soul rings would appear sporadically.

The waters of Moon Bay were red, like the bride's hijab, and they were extremely colorful.

The smell of blood rushed to the sky, and even if the sea water continued to wash away, it was difficult to wash away the smell of blood on the cliffs of Moon Bay.

Seeing this scene, Rao was Cheng Xiao's hard-hearted heart, and he couldn't help but feel vivid.

"Don't think too much about it, these gray-eyed demon whales are the most viable, and they can give birth to a large group every year." Cheng Yu patted his nephew on the shoulder and comforted.

Cheng Xiao shook his head and said with a smile: "Uncle also underestimates me too much, although I can't bear it, but if they hadn't mastered the secret art, it would have been their rations for becoming the Grey-eyed Demon Whale, the weak eat the strong, the iron law of the soul master world, I am not so fragile." ”

"Hahaha, that's good."

That's right, the law of the jungle, Cheng Xiao once again had a new understanding of the world, he thought of Xiao Wu, she ...... It's also a soul beast...... In just a moment, his heart became hard as iron again.
