Chapter 40: The Storm is Uneven
Before the time came, the two of them fell asleep peacefully, although Gengshenri was almost over, but hundreds of miles away, Chenyangzi and the two rushed over, and they couldn't search such a large area.
The next morning, the two got up early to wash, prepared the items needed to go to sea, the sea water is not drinkable, you have to prepare a lot of water, and you have to bring food, the fishermen's home is the most pickled salted fish, the two did not bring less, and the rice crackers also brought some.
After preparing enough water, the two took out some silver taels to thank them, and the fisherman was afraid to accept it at first, so he excused himself in every possible way, but Yun Yi delivered it again and again, and the fisherman dared to accept it.
Before leaving, Yun Yi asked the fisherman if anyone could go out to sea to fish today, and the fisherman was not sure who would go to sea, but there must be someone who went out to fish, and the two of them could wait from the ferry by the sea.
After asking the location of the ferry, the two went out to the east, and within ten miles, they saw the coast and the ferry on the seaside.
More than a dozen fishing boats were parked at the ferry, as well as a few fishermen who were rolling up their trousers and preparing to pull out anchor and go to sea.
"Why don't you have a passenger ship?" asked the fat man, confused.
"This is the coast of the East China Sea, what do you want a passenger ship to do?" Yun Yi turned his head to look at the fat man.
"You don't want to sit on this, do you?" said the fat man, pointing in surprise to the fishing boat by the ferry.
"That's all there is to it," Yun Yi nodded: "On the way, I will recover some aura and manipulate the aliens in the sea to carry us eastward." ”
"Is this reliable?" the fat man hesitated.
"The unreliable ones are already here, and those two old things are probably looking for us both nearby at this time, and they can't go back. Yun Yi shook his head, the two of them had already ridden the tiger, and there was no other choice.
Walking to the ferry, Yun Yi raised his hand to say hello to the dozen or so fishermen, explaining his intentions.
When those fishermen heard this, they waved their hands and refused, Yun Yi begged again and again, and the other party had to explain, because the accent difference between the north and the south was too great, Yun Yi took a lot of effort to understand what they meant.
In winter, the northwest wind blows, the fishing boat can not go too far, take a step back, even if you can go far away, the fishermen do not dare to go, they take a small fishing boat, go to sea need to bear a lot of risk, and each time you go to sea often takes several days to return, in the sea all rely on the sun, moon and stars to navigate, but most of the time in winter there is no moon, the stars are dim, easy to get lost.
Yun Yi was stunned, he only thought that he could escape the pursuit of the Ding Jia faction by escaping to the sea, but he ignored the problem of wind direction and season.
There is no turning back arrow from the bow, and now it can only be hard-headed, there are many huge sea aliens in the sea, and now we can only pin our hopes on this, if you encounter such aliens on the way, you can temporarily take its god mansion, and carry the two to continue eastward.
Although Yun Yi had made up his mind, those people still refused to agree, and in the end, Yun Yi had no choice but to take out the few silver taels left, and the fishermen reluctantly agreed.
Yun Yi jumped on the fishing boat and turned around and waved at the fat man.
The fat man cried and looked at the boat: "Can we still come back?"
"If you can get out, you can come back. Yun Yi comforted him, but in fact, he was not too sure about this matter.
If you go out, you may not be able to come back, but if you don't leave, you will definitely be found by the two of Chenyangzi, so instead of sitting and waiting, it is better to give it a go.
The road ahead is vast, there are many unknown variables, and many things cannot be controlled by manpower, but how to choose depends on your own will. Whether you can do it is one thing, and whether you want to do it is another.
The fishermen packed up their things, lifted anchor and went to sea, watching the fishing boats gradually leave the ferry, Yun Yi's heart was full of mixed tastes, extremely heavy, he was not sure about the result of this voyage, going to sea was a choice without a choice, the personnel were exhausted, and he could only obey the fate of heaven in the future.
The fat man sat in the stern of the boat in a daze, looking at the shore without saying a word.
The fishermen were very knowledgeable, and when they saw that the two were depressed, they did not come forward to talk. Of course, there is another reason for not talking, that is, it is too difficult for both parties to communicate.
After a while, Yun Yi sat cross-legged and exercised his strength. The difference between a Taoist and a layman is that they have a deep understanding of the way of yin and yang and are able to act according to the principles of yin and yang, and the layman can be influenced by emotions to plan, but the Taoist will be clear about his goals and know when to do something.
Fishing boats can't sail far in winter, and the road behind them has to rely on themselves, and if you want to encounter and control large marine aliens, aura is the key.
"Look!" the fat man suddenly reached out and patted him on the shoulder.
"What's wrong?" Yun Yi looked back in confusion.
"Look to the shore," the fat man pointed to the ferry, "it's the black bear." ”
Yun Yi paused, turned his head and looked in the direction pointed by the fat man, only to see a burly man nine feet tall with a one-legged bronze man on his shoulder beckoning at the ferry, shouting eagerly.
This person is none other than the two of them who met the black bear spirit Xiong Liu in the broken temple more than half a year ago.
Seeing Xiong Liu appear here, Yun Yi was shocked and shouted, "Where is the hero going?"
"It turned out to be you," Xiong Liu also saw the two of them, and beckoned in surprise: "I want to go overseas to seek immortals, and I have to take a ride." ”
"What are you talking about, be louder......" Yun Yi pretended not to hear really, put his hand to the root of his ear, and listened carefully.
"Give me a ride!" Xiong Liu shouted again.
"The wind is too strong, I can't really hear it, you should be louder!" Yun Yi continued to act.
"I'm going to ask for immortals," Xiong Liu eagerly raised his voice: "Give me a ride!"
"You're going to Chang'an! Hero, you're wrong, Chang'an has to go northwest!" Yun Yi got up and shouted.
As soon as these words came out, the fat man turned around and covered his mouth and snickered.
"Seeking immortals," Xiong Liu was so anxious that he jumped off the ferry and swam towards the sea: "I want to go and seek immortals." ”
"Chang'an is indeed in the north, if you want to cross the Yellow River, you have to go northwest," Yun Yi responded loudly: "I have important things to do, I can't lead the way for the hero, please forgive the hero!"
After that, he turned around and continued to breathe, no matter how loudly Xiong Liu shouted, in short, he turned a deaf ear.
Although the northwest wind was not blowing at this time, the fishing boat was not moving fast, and Xiong Liu's body was wide and fat, so it would be slower to carry it.
There was a lot of resistance in the water, Xiong Liu was able to catch up with him at first, but then the sea water flooded his neck, Xiong Liu couldn't move an inch, and shouted loudly again in his eagerness, and the one-legged bronze man who hung down his shoulders under excitement never wanted to slip because of this unbalanced, and even his head was flooded, and he hurriedly came out of his hands and fluttered wildly.
"That guy choked on water, shouldn't something happen?" the fat man was a little worried.
Yun Yi heard the sound and looked back at Xiong Liu, who was trying to swim towards the shore, although this guy didn't have a big brain, he was not too stupid, and he gave up the heavy one-legged bronze man at a critical time.
Xiong Liu, like a chicken in soup, crawled back to the shore, looked at the fishing boats that were gradually moving away, hung his head in frustration, sighed for a long time, and finally got up and headed west.
Xiong Liu's brain was missing a string, but he didn't expect Yun Yi to pretend to hear it wrong, so when he left, he only had disappointment on his face and no resentment.
After the fat man laughed, he was in a slightly better mood, and he lay on the boat and hummed the bangzi tone.
Bangzi is a folk song widely spread in the northwest, which is very rough and heroic. Yun Yi was in a bad mood, but when he heard the tone of the fat man, his depression in his heart was reduced a little.
The oncoming sea breeze carried a thick fishy smell, and it was difficult for Yun Yi to calm down, but fortunately, it did not have a great impact on him, and he was still able to gather energy.
At noon, Yun Yi regained a little aura, and when he heard the sound of the fat man and the dozen fishermen eating, he opened his eyes and asked the fat man for a dry food.
"Eat this. The fat man handed over another pickled salted fish.
Yun Yi waved his hand and did not answer, the Daomen spell should not be unclean, eat garlic has a bad breath, will chant the spell will not work, if there is an emergency, the spell will not work.
A fat man is a fat man, he is always fat and has a wide heart, he didn't think so much, and he ate several tails in a row.
After eating the dry food, Yun Yi continued to take his breath, the fishermen cast a net halfway and caught a lot of seafood, but this place is not far from the coast, most of the fish caught are small fish, and the harvest is not too big, so if you want to catch more, you have to go farther away.
The fat man was idle and had nothing to do, so he went to talk to those fishermen, although the communication was laborious, but it was not impossible to communicate, and he could still understand one or two when the other party slowed down his speech.
In the afternoon, the fishing boat had left the shore about a hundred miles away, and Yun Yi had recovered nearly forty percent of his aura, so he stopped soaking his qi and began to eat.
Just when he thought that the people of the Ding Jia faction would not chase after him again, two Taoists, one fat and one thin, suddenly appeared on the western sea, and at this time, they were riding the waves and coming from a fishing boat at a very fast speed.
If you look closely, it is Chenyangzi and Chenfengzi.
"The old thing is still in the shadows, and it's catching up!" the fat man screamed.
Yun Yi subconsciously frowned, but he was not very worried, he had seen the two of them swallow the Qi Replenishing Pill before, but the Qi Replenishing Pill they were carrying should not be much, and this judgment was made because these two were both Taixuan masters, and they might never have thought that he and the fat man would be so difficult to catch.
The two of them should have been chasing after Gengshen since the end of the day, hundreds of miles of mountain roads are not long for them, but they are not too far, and they must have also searched a large area in the southeast, and the volley flight consumed a lot of aura, and this time they stepped on the waves, and the aura was consumed even more.
In addition, although the speed of the two of them is fast, it is limited to sweeping forward, and it is not sensitive if they want to move from the sea, after all, people are not fish, they can only adapt to land.
Thinking of this, Yun Yi took out the things that drew the talismans, and drew two thunder talismans in a row, which were divided into the palms of the left and right hands.
Seeing two Taoists walking on the sea, the surprised eyes of the dozen fishermen almost fell, and after a while, they kowtowed to the two of them, and they didn't know what to say.
When he was ten feet away from the fishing boat, Chenyangzi took the lead in launching an offensive, and his right palm rushed to send out his aura, hitting the stern of the boat.
Seeing that Chenyangzi would come to the bottom of the kettle to draw salary, Yun Yi's heart was terrified, and he was so shocked that his soul was not possessed.
Fortunately, most of Chenyangzi's aura was used to ride the waves on his legs, and the aura emitted was not very powerful, and the aura emitted only made the hull of the boat shake slightly, and the fishing boat was not damaged.
Seeing this situation, Yun Yi's heart felt a little calmer, and when the two of them rushed to the stern, they immediately pounced forward, and the thunder talisman of both palms rushed out.
The two of them had never seen him draw a thunder talisman before, and they were defenseless, and with the roaring thunder, they plopped into the sea, splashing layers of waves.
Yun Yi was also shocked and staggered, falling backwards on his back, but fortunately, the fat man hugged them from behind in time, so he didn't let the back of his head hit the ground.
