Chapter 488: Fishing Village
Ouyang Feng glanced at Locke, who was peeking at them in red clothes, in surprise, and said with a smile, "What's the matter?"
Alger sighed and said, "If it had been before, I would never have let go of such a good seedling, but now I don't have time, and this kid Locke is a little older." ”
Ouyang Feng shrugged his shoulders and said, "If you feel pity, just point him out, and it can be regarded as a good fate." Alger hesitated and nodded, deciding to point out the honest boy.
During the banquet, Roderick was a representative, talking with the village chief and others, dealing with a series of questions and temptations, Roderick has been through the wind and waves for a long time, he has never seen any scenes, and he is naturally comfortable with dealing with a group of simple and cunning countrymen, and he answers without leaking, and even unknowingly takes out some useful things from the other party's mouth, such as where other pharmacists who go into the mountains to collect medicine generally haunt, and there are powerful magical beasts entrenched in that area of the mountain, etc.
Hongshang and the other women took the first step to eat and go back to the room to rest, they were not used to big fish and meat, but in addition to these, there were no vegetarian dishes that could be handled, and the village chief was embarrassed to use those pickled wild vegetables that could only be eaten salty and had no other taste to entertain these ladies who were different at first glance.
When Alger saw that the red clothes were gone, Locke looked absent-minded, smiled, and asked Locke to take him to his convenience.
The departure of the two did not arouse the awareness of the village chief, who was already a little drunk, until they were full of wine and food, and the women began to clean up the table, that they accidentally asked about Locke's whereabouts, and then, without waiting for an answer, pulled Roderick, who was very good at chatting, into the house for tea.
Alger and Locke only returned in the middle of the night. Ouyang Feng lay on the kang over and over again, constantly turning over. The residual heat of the kang made him a little unbearable. When Alger came back, Ouyang Feng immediately got up, shook off his clothes, and asked with a smile, "Big tree, how is it?"
Alger nodded and said, "Well, it's a good seedling, it would be better if he was a few years younger." Just now, I taught him the method of cultivating Douqi, and this kid's comprehension is very good. I only demonstrated it a few times, and he learned almost enough, as long as he can persist in cultivating, it is estimated that it will not take long to cultivate Dou Qi. ”
Speaking of this, Alger sighed and said, "It's a pity, if Locke had been cultivating since he was about ten years old, his future achievements would be absolutely limitless, but now, alas, if there are no adventures. He can also cultivate to the swordsman level at most. ”
Ouyang Feng shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's all fate, uncle, don't feel sorry." Locke's encounter with you can be regarded as his creation, in this place, it is enough to have a swordsman's cultivation, why do you plan to let him do something earth-shattering?"
Early the next morning, the group got up to wash, and in order not to attract more people's attention, they went on the road without even eating breakfast, and walked on the thatched path leading to the mountains, all the way to the west. Locke also got up early, followed Alger's side all the time, listened carefully to Alger's teachings, and did not reluctantly leave until he reached the edge of the woods.
A village, a young man with some potential, for Ouyang Feng, they didn't feel anything, and they were just passers-by, but what they didn't expect was that after a few years, Locke's cultivation and fighting spirit were slightly successful, and after his mother died, he resolutely left this quiet small village, trekked through mountains and rivers to Ula City, and took out the token left by Alger, and successfully joined the Qingyuan Guild, and after many years, became the pillar of the Qingyuan Guild in this world, and it was even more unexpected, breaking through to the level of a senior swordsman, becoming the high-level of the Qingyuan Guild, and taking the mercenary group directly under him to go south and north, and made a big name。
Of course, this qiē is not all Alger's credit, ten days after Ouyang Feng and his party left the village, Gail, Yaheng and Angelo, also came to Sunset Village with their most powerful personal guards, and after learning that Alger pointed out Locke's affairs, he also gave him some advice, and Gail, who cultivated his fighting spirit, left Locke a good cultivation method, which is also the basis for Locke's achievements in such a short time.
Ouyang Feng and his party entered the Luoyang Mountain Range, avoiding areas frequented by other herb pickers along the way, and picking places that the villagers regarded as forbidden places, anyway, there were two sixth-level demonic beasts of Azi Cat and Big Panya, and it didn't take much trouble, all the demonic beasts either escaped in advance, or were killed by Azi Cat and brought back as rations, except for the road being a little difficult to walk along the way, it seemed very easy.
On the third day, Ouyang Feng and his entourage climbed to the top of the highest peak of the Luoyang Mountain Range, looking at the sea in the distance, feeling the different humidity, and breathing the slightly umami air.
On the sixth day, Ouyang Feng and his entourage came to the western foot of the Luoyang Mountain Range, and under the siege of a group of wolf-like demonic beasts, the wolf bèi fled and ran for a whole day to get rid of the pursuit of the wolves. It's not that Ouyang Feng's cultivation and strength are not enough, Ouyang Feng hasn't given up cultivation while they're in a hurry these days.
Now, even Penny, who has the lowest cultivation, has reached the cultivation of the middle stage of foundation building under the strong impetus of pills and immortal rice, but such a group of people is still forced by a huge number of wolves, no way, although the strength of those demon wolves is not high, most of them are demonic beasts below the third level, and they only occupy a small proportion above the third level, but the number of wolves is really terrifying, and they are not afraid of death, Ouyang Feng They are soft, but the number of wolves they may see is still so much, Ouyang Feng has no choice but to retreat, otherwise they will definitely be exhausted to death。
Two days of fighting and running for their lives, it is not without gains, Penny, Nina, these two magicians who have no combat effectiveness, through the killing of these days, they have also practiced skilled attack magic, Ouyang Feng and others are taking advantage of this rare opportunity to constantly run in and reorganize the team, exercise cooperation, familiarize themselves with the command, hone their will, and improve their combat effectiveness as much as possible, while constantly improving the mistakes and mistakes that appear.
On the tenth day, Ouyang Feng and his party dragged their tired bodies out of the jungle, as long as they climbed through a mountain that was not very high, it was really not far from the destination.
On the fifteenth day, there was a thrilling climb through the mountain peaks, a group of people walked on the soft sand, blowing the soft and slightly salty sea breeze, breathing the humid but refreshing air, looking at the vast and boundless sea, everyone felt unprecedented relaxation. That night, Ouyang Feng and his party decided to rest on the beach for one night and enjoy the fun of being with the sea in advance, because in the next few days, they would enter the north of the forest again, all the way north, away from the beach, to the Ranjiao Island, a hundred or ten miles away.
It's not that Ouyang Feng doesn't want to keep moving along the seaside, but if that's the case, the distance will increase a lot, and their time is running out, so they don't want to be played by Li Mu, so they can only choose this route. The sea carp, these days has been hiding in the spirit beast bag and has not shown up, even if it comes to the beach, it has reached the edge of breakthrough when it gets the fairy rice, I believe that when Ouyang Feng and they arrive at their destination, the sea carp will almost be able to go further.
On the eighteenth day, Ouyang Feng and his entourage walked out of the mountains and forests, and from a distance, a city appeared in the north, the city was not big, and the city walls were not high.
That night, Ouyang Feng and his entourage rested in this fishing village with thousands of people, and only learned from what they saw and inquired about that this is the largest fishing village in this coastal area, and most of the households in the village make a living from fishing, of course, there are also some merchants who set up shops here to sell some daily necessities at the same time, they will also buy some precious seafood, and at the same time, this is also the largest seafood market within a radius of hundreds of miles.
There are all kinds of fishing boats of all sizes parked at the wharf by the sea, and the port has all kinds of boats constantly coming in and out, which is extremely lively, and some fishermen are busy carrying the fruits of the harvest, some are squatting on the deck and chatting, and some are making preparations before the sea, which seems to be so harmonious and calm.
Ouyang Feng, Roderick and Alger came to the dock after dinner, looking at the busy but peaceful scene, they were very emotional, Roderick even said that when he was too old to do anything, he would find such a fishing village to enjoy his old age, enjoy the sea, sun and beach, and have a simple and peaceful life.
Ouyang Feng, who knew that Roderick's calm appearance had a restless and adventurous heart, snorted at this, and Alger also shook his head and smiled bitterly, both of them felt that it was impossible for Roderick to stay in such a place for more than a year.
The three of them came to the dock, inquired several times, and found Jack, who was introduced by the innkeeper, who had a small boat, and usually made a living by fishing, but occasionally took on some cargo work.
It was still Roderick who came forward to charter a boat with Jack, a slightly philistine captain, but when Jack heard that Ouyang Feng was going to the Reef Island at sea, he couldn't help frowning and refusing.
Roderick saw from Jack's eyes that things were not impossible, so he used money to attack and smash gold coins, and finally Roderick simply gave the price of ten gold coins, and said that if Jack still refused, they would go to find someone else, Jack finally relented, but said that he could only send Ouyang Feng to the periphery of Ranjiao Island, and with a little distance, he could give Ouyang Feng and them a free boat to let them go to the island on their own.
Ouyang Feng asked the reason curiously, Jack hesitated for a moment and explained: "I don't know who you are, and I don't know why you went to that place, I only know that there are very good people on that island, and those people are all very fierce, not allowing us people to get close, and besides, there are all dense reefs near Ranjiao Island, and if you don't have an accurate chart, you will definitely go back again, so he can only send it to the periphery of Ranjiao Island." ”
Ouyang Feng didn't have the slightest doubt about Jack's answer, before they came out, they had already passed through the inn's buddy hall, and the answers of the two were basically the same. (To be continued......)
