Chapter 5: The Beginning of a Dream

In the middle of summer, the sky is always very early.

As the storm cleared, a group of heavily armed soldiers were running along the road near the warehouse towards the harbor, and at the front of the line were Uncle Fu and a middle-aged strong man in special armor with a bearded face.

"Lord Wu, it's near the warehouse in front...... Look, that's by the sea!"

Uncle Fu was sweating profusely and pointed to the way, he was really in a hurry, nearly two hours had passed since he and the rest of the crew left the warehouse to lead the people of the hundred households back.

Is Hyakyosha far from the port?

Naturally not.

Under normal circumstances, a round trip takes only 20 minutes.

It's just that a few soldiers on duty at that time heard that a large number of fish monsters had landed, and they didn't want to reject Uncle Fu's request for immediate support, and instead went to inform the prefect of the Hundred Households.

After that, we had to wait for a while in a nearby safe area because it was dark and stormy, and it was difficult to aim ordinary firearms......

This can't be blamed on them, ordinary people want to fight a large group of fish monsters, and if they don't have the help of guns, they will come to the door to add food to the monsters.

It's just a late-night snack, and it's not even a good meal.

"Get ready, the other party is a group of weirdos, not the monsters or pirates of the past, cheer me up. ”

Seeing the fish monster near the port from a distance, the commander called Lord Wu immediately beckoned,

"Don't be stingy with the bullets in your hands, it's over when you meet and greet you vigorously, if anyone is soft and is fucked, don't go out and say that it is Lao Tzu's soldier when the time comes!"

There was a commander rushing ahead, and these soldiers looked at the monster in front of them and felt that it was one thing, but they didn't dare to turn back and run, after all, the result of the deserter would not be much better no matter where they were.

However, as the distance narrowed, the expressions on everyone's faces involuntarily became surprised.

At first, they noticed that the monsters in the harbor did not react to their arrival at all, but when they got closer, they found that the monsters either had a large hole in their bodies or had obviously been bombarded by powerful firearms.

When they followed the corpses of the monsters all the way to the steam whaling ship, they saw the corpses all over the deck, especially the crooked heads on the side of the mast, which seemed to have been cut by someone with a knife or axe, coupled with the strong fishy stench wafting in the air, and immediately some people couldn't help but turn sideways and start vomiting.

"Ah Jing?"

Uncle Fu has been looking for Lu Jing's figure all the way, and when he boarded the ship, his eyes were immediately attracted by the person in the captain's room who was sitting on a bench with his head bowed, and hurriedly leaned over, and when he got closer, he saw the shotgun on the ground and the whale hunting spear stained with blue-green liquid, as well as someone who was snoring and sleeping with crystal saliva on the corner of his mouth.

I opened my mouth, but I didn't know how to open my mouth for a while.

"He killed all these monsters alone?"

Commander Wu, who led the team, also noticed the situation here, and patted Uncle Fu's shoulder with a strange expression, but his eyes fell on the three black fins and the moon-white scallops stacked under the young man's feet, and said in a rather difficult tone,

"You said earlier that the life and death of your second mate is unknown, and the situation is extremely critical...... Are these monsters at stake?"

......

The arrival of a large number of soldiers woke up Lu Jing unexpectedly, and he didn't want to sit in the captain's room like a statue for people to admire, so he picked up his trophies early and followed Uncle Fu and Commander Wu off the whaling ship to rest on the beach.

Scallops and fins are both treasures that Lu Jing found through the compass, the former is on the waist of the elite fish monster, and the latter is the parts of its body, Lu Jing "unloaded" them only to find that the texture of these fins is extremely tough.

Of course, none of this is critical.

What really matters is that the "76" compass seems to have a treasure hunting function, although Lu Jing is not sure how far this compass can do for the time being, but even if it can only point out the treasures possessed by the monster defeated by Lu Jing, this is already an incredible ability......

Straight to the point.

The two people who had just seen the situation on the deck had inevitably had a strange attitude towards Lu Jing, Commander Wu was too unfamiliar to speak, and Uncle Fu was too familiar to know how to speak for a while.

"My lord, I don't know where these monsters came from?"

Leaning against a reef by the beach, Lu Jing, whose eyes were full of exhaustion, looked at the soldiers who were disposing of the corpses on the boat, and took the initiative to break the silence.

Although he had expected the weakened state after the tidal alienation ended, Lu Jing still overestimated his physical strength, and the tidal alienation combined with a night of fighting made him feel a little weak all over his body now.

"Just call me Wu Rin or Commander Wu, these are all weird in the sea. ”

Looking at Lu Jing, Wu Rin's tone was inexplicably relaxed, and even somewhat almost meaningful.

"Goblins?"

Looking back in amazement.

"Right...... No, I mean weird, a collective term for a group of disgusting monsters that are crazier than youkai. ”

While speaking, seeing that a large number of people were rushing to this side not far away, Wu Rin's eyes rolled left and right, and he deliberately lowered his voice before Lu Jing continued to speak, and suddenly lowered his voice and asked,

"Brother, it's a great credit to kill so many weird things, and the government office here on Qingchu Island attaches great importance to it and gives praise to the participants, especially public officials...... Of course, I will personally reward the heroes who protect the port of Qingchu. ”

"Huh?"

Sensing the implicit meaning between Wu Rin's words, Lu Jing raised his eyebrows, and at the same time felt that there was suddenly an extra hand behind his back to pat it to remind him, paused, and said with a smile,

"This is not what I killed, but the results of your life and the brothers over there, they are the heroes!"

"Hahaha~ Good brother, if there is anything you need my Wu Rin's help, just ask!"

For Lu Jing's upper path, Wu Rin felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, his original intention was to let the person in front of him share some merits for himself, but he had run such a long way, he couldn't keep up with the boss empty-handed, and it was not easy to explain to the outside world.

Unexpectedly, Lu Jing was willing to give him all the credit, and the back molars who laughed for a while could be seen clearly.

You must know that those weird monsters may be just a puddle of rotten meat for Lu Jing, but they are the best promotion level for him, the leader who has been in the hundred households for so long.

The kind that no one dares to put their beaks in!

It's just that in order to make this credit solid, it is definitely not possible to rely on lip service alone, the other party can fight so many fish monsters alone, which is naturally very comparable, and he has to come up with a price code that can convince the other party.

"Last night's battle made a mess of Uncle Fu's ship, and the follow-up repairs are ......"

The opportunity to make money in Xindao has come, Lu Jing said with a smile.

"The repair fee for 5 gold leaves, I will be sent later, I will say hello to the shipyard on the island, and give priority to repairing yours!"

As the leader of the Hundred Households, the power and resources in Wu Rin's hands are naturally not a joke, and he makes a straightforward promise.

1 gold leaf is not a small amount, its purchasing power is converted into coins in the previous life, about 100,000, that is to say, this Wu Commander is 500,000, which is more than the money they earned on a trip to the sea, and the latter is divided by more than a dozen people!

This adult obviously intends to use money to completely seal the mouths of Lu Jing and Uncle Fu, especially Lu Jing, Wu Rin doesn't want to ruin the current good atmosphere because of a few dollars, so he actually shouted at this price.

5 gold leaves may be a lot of money for Wu Rin now, but if he really takes this credit, the benefits in the future will be enough to make up for all this.

In the storm, he led his troops to fight and kill strange monsters to protect the lives and property of the people of Qingchu City from being disturbed......

For this credit alone, if anyone doesn't give him a promotion, he will not be able to get along with the public opinion of Qingchu Island, and he will dare to lead people to pour feces on people's doors!

Of course, it was late at night, and you had to wear a veil.

There was an agreement between them, and Wu Rin didn't waste time, and immediately ran quickly to the whaling ship, probably to communicate with his own people again.

"Uncle Fu, this person shouldn't be able to cross the river and tear down the bridge, right?"

Waiting for Wu Rin to walk away, Lu Jing turned his head to look at Uncle Fu who had not spoken much beside him.

"It's possible for someone else, but for you, he doesn't dare to play tricks, the scene on the deck scares him enough, you make a lot of money this time!"

"No, it's not me, it's us, Uncle Fu, three of these five gold leaves are yours. ”

As if thinking of something, Lu Jing pursed his lips and continued,

"Uncle Fu, do you remember what I mentioned to you when I was chatting before, when I think I have enough ability, I will go to sea...... Go and see in the distance. ”

A statue of a human head once made Lu Jing only one step away from death, but in the end, it made him take a big step towards his dream.

There is no doubt that the appearance of extraordinary abilities gave Lu Jing the confidence to really go to this sea, and he has never been a person who twists, so he took this opportunity to express his heart directly like Uncle Fu.

"Good boy, you should go out while you are young, take care of what I do, can I still stop you, what you said to me at the time, now return it to you. ”

Sensing the meaning of Lu Jing's words, Uncle Fu tilted his head, patted him on the shoulder, and suddenly laughed again and pointed to the boundless sea in the distance,

"There is no reason in this world to stop a man from running to the sea!"

Not far away, the tide crashes against the reef.

Bloom with a large bouquet of water.
