Chapter 49: Tranquility
Starfish looked up at the blue and clear sky and said, "There may be a storm today, and the people in the village haven't gone out to fish in the morning, although there are still some stocks of ghost shrimp, but when the wind and rain come, they can only hide in the house and can't do anything else." ”
Shen Shimulan, after a while, also looked up at the cloudless sky, where it was clear and transparent, and there was not even a single white cloud, it was simply that the weather was outrageously clear. He pointed to the sky above his head and said to the starfish incredulously: "This kind of weather, do you say it will be windy and rainy?"
Starfish nodded, and said as a matter of course: "Yes, and it will be very stormy later, you should go back early, it is best to go back to the cave, don't wander outside, especially on the coast." ”
Shen Shi saw that Haixing had such a calm expression, and he couldn't help but feel a little more puzzled in his heart, could it be that what she said was true, and there would be a storm later? It's just that the sky is extremely clear at this moment, the sun is shining, where is there half a sign of wind and rain.
The starfish didn't rub much with him, and it was to inform Shen Shi that the other shrimp pots, sharp knives, sea bowls, etc., didn't bring any of them, and waved his hand to Shen Shi at this time, and then walked back to Hongbang Village in a hurry.
Shen Shi stood there for a moment, then looked up at the sky, muttered a sentence in his mouth, and said, "This kind of weather can have strong wind and rain, who believes it......"
It's just that having said that, but the starfish made it clear that the matter had been decided, and he would tell you that you would be cool and stay there, Shen Shi was also helpless, he couldn't rush to the red clam village to find the shrimp pots, and then he had to peel the shrimp for them?
Running with enthusiasm and enthusiasm to prepare for a big job, and then when he arrived at the ground, he found that he couldn't do anything because of a seemingly unreliable reason. After smiling bitterly in his heart because of the unfavorable start to his great cause of earning spirit crystals, he could only turn around and leave.
Walking on the way back to the herring fish set, the sky was still blue, cloudless, and the sound of waves washing the beach could be vaguely heard in the distance, but Shen Shi walked and walked, but he always felt that his surroundings seemed to be quieter than usual.
He looked up and looked around, thought for a moment, and realized that at some point, the big trees in the surrounding woods were silent, and on the usual island, the sea breeze was constant all year round, and they often swayed and made a trembling sound.
"It's still stormy, and now even the wind has stopped!"
Shen Shi snorted angrily, becoming more and more unbelieving what the starfish said just now.
Returning to the herring fish set all the way, Shen Shi only walked a few steps, and found that the situation on the herring fish set seemed to be slightly different from usual, the same door walking on the road seemed to be much less, and many shops were closed, which also made his original idea of taking this opportunity to visit the shops fall through again.
Why didn't anything go well today?
However, looking at this picture of everyone avoiding it, is it really possible for the starfish to say something?
Shen Shi muttered again in his heart, frowned and walked on the Qingyuji Street for a while, and came to the intersection of the two roads leading to the Morning Star Hall and the White Crane Hall that day, this is the most lively place in the Qingyuji, and there is a wooden sign erected in the center of the street, on which some notices will occasionally be posted to announce some important things to everyone.
Shen Shi usually goes to Hongbang Village, which is located in the middle of nowhere, and does not pass through here, but if it is really as Starfish said, there is a storm today and there is no risk of even going to the coast, there will definitely be a warning on the wooden sign here. But when he walked under the wooden sign and looked at it, he saw that it was blank and there was nothing.
"I'll just say, if something really happens, an announcement has already been posted here. Shen Shi suddenly put his mind at ease, since Ling Xiaozong didn't warn about that inexplicable storm here, it must have been no big problem, and at the same time, he secretly shook his head at the fuss in Hongbang Village.
Since there was nothing to do here, Shen Shi didn't think about going back to the cave mansion immediately, after all, he couldn't cultivate early in the morning, after a moment of silence, Shen Shi simply thought about going to the place where Sun You raised beasts to see the spirit beast hall, anyway, he said that he wanted to come to see him several times, but he didn't come, so he took advantage of today's free time, so he just went to see him by himself.
With his mind set, Shen Shi turned around and walked forward, the main hall of the Lingxiao Sect has its own hall on Qingyu Island, and the place where Sun You feeds beasts is naturally where the Spirit Beast Hall is located. However, Shen Shi has been on this Qingyu Island for many days, except for cultivating in the cave mansion and going to Hongmussel Village to peel shrimp all day long, he has really not been to many other places. Of course, the Ling Xiao in the hand of the person had a rough indication of the location of some important places on Qingyu Island, but firstly, he hadn't seen it for a few days, and secondly, Shen Shi didn't seriously remember the address of the Spirit Beast Palace, and for a while, he only felt that his memory was a little vague, so he could only rely on the general impression to walk forward, planning to meet someone on the way and inquire by the way.
Not long after he left here, two more disciples of the Ling Xiao Sect suddenly came over on the somewhat deserted street, looking at the older senior brothers of the previous round, one tall and one short, at this time the tall one was frowning, and said angrily to the short man: "Could it be that you were lazy and didn't post it?"
The short disciple looked aggrieved and said, "Senior brother, I really came over early in the morning to post the announcement." ”
The two walked all the way to the wooden sign, the tall man sneered, glanced at the slippery wooden sign, and said, "What about the things you pasted?"
The short Lingxiao Sect disciple was silent for a while, and said with a wry smile: "Maybe...... Maybe the wind blew it away?"
The tall senior brother snorted, the surroundings were a little dull at the moment, the street was empty, but there was not even a trace of wind, and said, "Where does the wind come from?"
The short man was so sad that he couldn't speak, and he reluctantly pasted a piece of white paper under his ribs to the wooden card, but this time he stuck it tightly, not daring to be careless at all.
Seeing him doing things honestly, the tall senior brother's face was a little better, he snorted, and said: "I tell you to do things steadily on weekdays, and my words are the wind in my ears, but fortunately I was on duty today and found out early, otherwise if Senior Brother Kang Chen sees this mistake, believe it or not, he will tell Senior Brother Wang Jian directly, and then punish you to the sixth island to work as a coolie for a month before coming back?"
The short junior brother shrank his head, and seemed to be very afraid of what kind of hard work on the "sixth island" of the herring fish that the senior brother said. The tall senior brother glanced at the wooden sign again, thought for a while, and said, "This announcement has been posted for a while, I don't know if it will be okay?"
The short junior brother thought for a while, and said: "Actually, there won't be any major incidents, now the new junior disciples are all supervised by a senior brother who is a year old, and there are also senior brothers watching at various important task places, but anyone who has been on this island for five years is not used to seeing this sea storm, even if we subsidize the notice, they also know how to avoid it." ”
The tall senior brother nodded and said, "Well, it should be like this, in fact, although this sea storm is fierce, but the island has been prepared for many years, and most of them are unhindered, that is, the array hall will collect spiritual materials, and some rookie disciples will be sent to pick up five-colored shells on the beach at low tide, if you can't avoid it, it will be a little dangerous." However, there are also a few senior brothers in the array hall, so it must be okay. ”
As he spoke, his face suddenly straightened, and he glared at the short junior brother beside him who looked a lot more relieved, and said, "Even so, you also made a mistake today, and remember not to make such mistakes again in the future!"
The short junior brother nodded honestly and said, "I know, senior brother." Yan Xia also seemed to be a little lucky, and said, "Fortunately, Senior Brother Kang is not here these days, by the way, Senior Brother, do you know where Senior Brother Kang Chen has gone?"
The tall Lingxiao Sect disciple hesitated for a moment and said, "I heard that it was on Jinhong Mountain, but I don't know what mistakes were made, which angered the real person of the Sect Leader and was detained." ”
"Huh?" The short disciple was obviously hearing about this for the first time, and he was speechless in shock for a while. The tall senior brother glanced at him, turned around and walked away, the short disciple followed behind him, babbling and muttering to himself for a while, I don't know whether to worry about Senior Brother Kang Chen or to talk about himself, after a while, I couldn't help but look back at the wooden plaque again, and muttered in my mouth: "Hell, I really posted the notice early in the morning......
※※※
Shen Shi walked all the way, thinking that if he met a passing senior brother or a fellow disciple who knew the address of the Spirit Beast Hall on the way, he would ask them how to go. Who knew that I walked a long way from the side of the wooden sign, and for some reason, I originally felt that the herring fish was sparsely scattered in Shanghai, but at this time, I didn't meet anyone.
"Where are all the people going? Is this all going back to the cave to practice behind closed doors?" Shen Shi looked around with some confusion, hesitated for a moment, and thought that he had taken this section of the road anyway, and the Qingyuji led to several important places In fact, there were only a few roads, and the possibility of going wrong was not great, so he finally continued to walk forward.
Walking all the way, relying on Ling Xiao's brief impression in his memory, the place where Sun You was raising beasts should be the spirit beast hall on the west side of the island at the foot of a mountain on Qingyu Island, close to the sea, where he encircled a large area of land, mainly raising some low-level spirit beasts.
"Is it west......" When Shen Shi walked out of the herring fish set, he saw that there were actually two roads leading to the west, one to the south and the other to the north, and he couldn't figure it out for a while, but after looking carefully into the distance for a while, he found that the road to the south seemed to lead to the direction of a certain beach, but it was a little far away and couldn't see clearly, and the path to the north was smaller, and the direction of winding forward was a small hill to the northwest.
After pondering for a while, Shen Shi also wanted to choose the road to the southwest.
※※※
At the same time, in the beast farm at the foot of the mountain somewhere on Qingyu Island, Sun You frowned, trying his best to hold his breath, and at the same time dragged a huge giant turtle with both hands, and was dragging it towards a beast cage on the high ground in the far side of the beast farm with a gloomy face.
The big turtle shell is black and has lines, it looks several times larger than the ordinary turtle body, and it can reach Sun You's chest when it stands upright, it is a low-level spirit beast called "black-striped turtle" raised by the Spirit Beast Hall on Qingyu Island, and the turtle shell on its body is a very useful spiritual material, so the number of people raised in the Spirit Beast Hall is not small.
Sun You grinned and finally dragged the big turtle to the beast cage on the high ground and closed it, and then looked up at the sky, only to see that the sky above his head was still blue, but in the distance at sea level, it seemed that there was already a faint shadow.
"It stinks, why does a turtle of yours stink so much!"
Sun You smelled the stench coming from his body, and glared hatefully at the big turtle in the beast cage, the big turtle was dragged all the way by him just now, and he had already shrunk his limbs and head into the hard turtle shell, and at this moment he was secretly watching this person in the hard shell scolding and scolding, and suddenly a voice came from the side:
"Ha, second brother, what are you complaining about here?" Before the words fell, a handsome young man with a good and handsome face turned out from another corner of the beast farm, walked to Sun You's side, and after glancing at him, his face suddenly showed a little care, and said,
"Hey, second brother, your face is not very good-looking, is it too hard to cultivate. By the way, didn't my father give you a piece of 'red-sleeved agarwood' before you came here, that thing is refreshing and soothing, and it is very good for tiredness after cultivation, don't forget to use it." ”
Sun You's hand that was originally on the edge of the beast cage suddenly tightened.
