Chapter 22: Flower Tree Island

The Tide Stream arrived at Huashu Island the next day, close to noon.

After paying the berthing fee, the two immediately went to the shipyard near the port.

There is no way, the loading of the speedboat and the transformation of the Tide will take time, so naturally the sooner you start, the better.

Toot ~ Toot ~

The whistle of the bus sounded at the street corner not far away, Lu Jing's fingers hooked the string of the wine gourd, his right leg curled on the bench, and his eyes wandered among the large gardenia trees near the bus stop.

Xu Chu was beside him, pinching the iron walnut in his hand, exercising his fingers, after becoming Lu Jing's crew, his rehabilitation had already begun.

As the name suggests, there are a lot of flowers and trees on the island, especially the gardenia tree, which happens to be in the flowering period of the gardenia, and as far as the eye can see, there are white flowers lined with green branches and leaves, and even the streets around the station are scattered with petals.

"What a great place. ”

Boarding the bus, deliberately sitting on the window of the bus, Lu Jing half of his face was against the window, the sun in August was already much warmer, mixed with the fragrance of flowers, and after a long time, the whole body was comfortable, and his mouth couldn't help but start humming a certain magical melody again,

"Gardenia blooms, blooms ......"

"Huashu Island is a famous tourist island in Jianchang Province, and the environment is certainly not bad. ”

Xu Chu on the side also seemed to be intoxicated by this relaxed environment, squinted his eyes and slowed down, and continued,

"Shall we eat later or go buy the supplies we need to go to Rare Beast Island first?"

"Eat first, I'm hungry now...... By the way, there should be a weapon shop on Huashu Island, after all, it is so close to Rare Beast Island, what kind of cold weapon do you think is more suitable for me?"

Although Lu Jing won the battle of the sea flower boat, the two monsters made him realize the lack of skills he had mastered in combat, so before arriving on Huashu Island this morning, Lu Jing specially discussed with Xu Chu how to enhance the lethality.

At first, Lu Jing thought about simply practicing boxing and mastering some moves, so that he could avoid the "chaotic cloak boxing method" when he got into a fight, but after thinking about it, he was rejected by himself.

First, if no one teaches such a thing as boxing, and a person who has never had experience in this field closes the door and practices blindly, in the end, eighty percent of them will abandon their practice.

The so-called practice of boxing is not real, and the ghost is on the body for three years, this is not a joke.

Second, the vast majority of folk boxing techniques are aimed at humans or humanoid creatures after all, and they will only become at a loss against those monsters with strange forms.

As for those special martial arts that are extremely powerful in their own right...... Where did Lu Jing come from to learn?

Xu Xi's advice on this is very simple, instead of pursuing some martial arts cheats with no clues, it is better to study his own extraordinary abilities thoroughly, to put it bluntly, why are those with abilities called cultivators?

If you don't concentrate on cultivating the abilities you have, you have to run back to practice martial arts, isn't this nonsense?

Of course, there is one thing that the two have reached a consensus, the power of the shotgun is not small, it can ensure an instant explosion, but the loading volume is only a few rounds, Lu Jing can hardly guarantee that he can solve the battle with a shotgun, and melee combat is still an unavoidable situation most of the time.

Xu Chu is not suitable for hand-to-hand combat, so he still has to go up to Lu Jing.

Therefore, a handy weapon is undoubtedly Lu Jing's first choice when he has not yet mastered his own ability.

"The choice of cold weapons depends on the individual, as far as I know, most cultivators will choose weapons that suit their abilities or are not bad with themselves, for example, my ability is very helpful for shooting, so I naturally choose firearms. ”

Xu Chu patted the long bag with rifles on his lap, it was not allowed to carry weapons on the sea flower boat before, Huashu Island did not have this rule, after all, he had provoked the people of the Nightmare Pirates not long ago, so he naturally had to be careful in everything, and after thinking about it, he continued,

"Your fighting style is already biased towards melee combat, have you ever had cold weapon combat experience before?"

"Does the whale hunting spear count?"

Not to mention anything else, Lu Jing is still quite confident in his throwing skills.

"Uh...... I suggest you buy a knife to try, this kind of weapon is the easiest to use for people who are new to cold weapons, with your physique and strength, you can completely control it, as for the technology of the whale hunting spear, you can specially prepare a few halberds, which can play a good role in battle, as for using it as a weapon...... Disposable weapons aren't always reliable, are they?"

Now the relationship between the two no longer needs to flatter each other, so Xu Chu said it very bluntly, with Lu Jing's current state, a long knife is the most useful,

"Of course, using the long knife now does not mean that you will use it in the future, the awakening stage is the process of the cultivator becoming familiar with his own ability, you can completely choose the truly suitable weapon after your ability has been developed to a certain extent, just like our current Tide, the long knife only makes a transition. ”

"That makes sense, then buy a knife and keep it in stock. ”

For Xu Ji's suggestion, Lu Jing was naturally convinced.

During the chat between the two, the bus drove into Huashu City from the port, different from the market and chamber of commerce that can be seen everywhere in Qingchu City, the street layout here is undoubtedly more life-like, more residential buildings and inns, but the corresponding urban buildings are more old-fashioned than Qingchu City.

The two walked side by side on the street, chatting and looking at the restaurants or restaurants on both sides.

"I heard that the drunken shrimp and pear fish on Huashu Island are very famous...... I remembered that there was a chain of restaurants here, which specialized in some dishes with special ingredients, and there were even demon beast meat in the past, and some people used this to awaken their abilities at the banquet. ”

Halfway through, Xu Chu suddenly slapped his forehead and spoke.

"Eating demon beast meat to awaken extraordinary abilities, is there such a thing?"

Taking a sip of juice, Lu Jing thought about the scene when he was going to die or live when he awakened his ability, and he always felt tired.

"Of course, nothing is impossible on the boundless sea, and I've heard of some lucky guys who were lucky enough to suddenly find a fruit growing next to their 'pit' on the edge of their 'pit' that can awaken extraordinary abilities...... Then the mud in that place was hollowed out. ”

Xu Chu raised his eyebrows and smiled.

A passer-by asked about the location of the Zhenyu Building on Huashu Island, and the two walked slowly over, and finally found a place, but saw that a large group of people had gathered outside the renovated rather wild restaurant.

"Those two dishes you're talking about are so popular?"

Lu Jing looked at the people crowded at the door not far away, and asked in amazement.

"These people don't look like diners, how can they gather at the door of the restaurant and don't go in, depending on the way they are dressed...... Seems to be a bounty hunter at sea?"

Xu Xi's eyes first fell on a sign standing outside the restaurant, and then circled around those people before he answered.
