Chapter 269: The Foot of the Fishing Village
"Xiao Qingling, it is not an easy thing to take over a piece of land, even if it is rewarded by the Immortal Dao Academy, but it must be done according to one's ability. On the eve of going to the island, Feng Xuan couldn't help but remind.
How could Qing Ling not have thought of such a thing? The land that others have lived in for decades or even hundreds of years is suddenly told that in the future, this land will be owned by others, and it is unlikely that people will accept it smoothly when they think about it. Qing Ling is not a reckless person, Xiang Feng Xuan replied, "Then let's hide our identities and go to the island first, and then understand Qing Ling first." ”
The boat slipped on the shore, the pier on a small island, and I saw rows of fishermen's small houses sitting in a row not far from the sea, this island is not Haiyue Island, but the closest island to the mainland, one of the other six near Haiyue Island - Liuli Island.
The small island is closed, and there is little contact with the Central Continent, although it is not far away, but there are few boats, and now the three of them suddenly came here, it is naturally eye-catching, and when the three of them go ashore, there are already thirty or forty people gathered near the small pier to watch.
Most of them pointed at the three of them, "Look, that girl is so beautiful......
"That young man is so pretty......
"Actually, I think the youngest girl looks pretty too......"
Qing Ling was originally a beautiful girl, but compared to Feng Xuan and Zi Sakura, she was far behind, but her delicate and lovely appearance also attracted many island residents to watch and sigh.
At this time, the crowd looked from both sides, thinking that a middle-aged man in his forties came out of the middle, and it seemed that he was the village chief near this small island.
"Guests from afar, why did you come here?" Suddenly outsiders came, of course, the original inhabitants of the island had to be wary of outsiders, especially the three people who came did not seem to be mortals, as if they were immortals who fell from the sky.
Zi Sakura disdained to negotiate with ordinary humans, and was about to say some contemptuous words to elevate her identity, but was suppressed by Qingling's voice, "The three of us are playing around, and we are fortunate to find such a small island that we yearn for, so I want to come and see it, and if I can, I want to stay and live for a while to experience the folk customs here." ”
Qing Ling didn't directly say that she would take over this place in the future, but first understood it before proceeding to receive it. Zi Ying didn't expect Qing Ling to be able to talk to ordinary people so politely, and looked at Qing Ling like a ghost for a while. She was born noble, and since she was a child, she has seen those cultivators with high strength or noble status, but I have heard that there are such civilians in the world, and as for negotiations, she has never negotiated.
"It's a guest from afar, of course this is okay, but our small fishing village is too simple, and I hope the three of them don't dislike it......" The fairy-like girl was so polite, and the middle-aged man was flattered and said, Qingling's approachability and made the people of the small fishing village have a good impression of her.
The middle-aged man turned around and shouted to the villagers behind him, "Xiaoyudi, hurry up and go home and let your mother clean up the two rooms and come out, just say that there are guests~~~"
At this time, a twelve- or thirteen-year-old boy suddenly jumped out of the crowd, his skin was tanned by the sun, and his grin was unusually bright and his teeth were white, and he responded to the middle-aged **, "Yes, Daddy......!
"Hahaha~~~" The villagers behind him laughed, obviously amused by the little boy's words.
"Thank you, father-in-law, for taking ......," Qingling sincerely expressed his gratitude.
In the mortal world, a man can be called an old man when he is over forty years old, because most of the men in their forties are children with grandchildren, and it is not an exaggeration to call him an old man.
"What do you call the girl and your friend?"
Since she was going to stay for a while, Qing Ling would naturally tell these villagers her and Feng Xuan's names.
"My name is Qingling. As he spoke, he turned around, "Behind me are my friends Feng Xuan and Purple Sakura." ”
The middle-aged man nodded and said, "My name is Zhang Tieniu, and I am the village chief of the small fishing village on the east side of Liuli Island. If the girl doesn't dislike it, she can live in my house for the time being, although my house is simple, but fortunately there is a vacant room. ”
"Thank you village chief, we haven't been staying long and have been bothered for a few days. Qing Ling politely clasped his hands into fists in return. Turning his head to look at Feng Xuan and Zi Ying, he blinked and motioned for the two to come over.
"Girl, please come with me, and I'll take you with me to see where you are staying. Village Chief Zhang Tieniu led the way, and the onlookers gradually dispersed.
This small fishing village is not big, and the three of Qingling followed the village chief Zhang Tieniu down to almost look at the whole village, and there were only thirty households.
Feng Xuan and Zi Ying had obviously never set foot in the mortal world, and they seemed a little uncomfortable following the village chief, but with Qing Ling's signal, both of them held back their temperament, after all, it was Qing Ling's goal to come to receive the territory this time, and both of them were just following.
