Chapter 263 The soldiers are divided into two ways, the city of crabs
Four months after arriving at the reef beach, Qi Feiyun still left. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info he took the map left by the witch and persuaded Wen Coral to go with him to the City of Crabs.
Before leaving, he said to Cheng Ziming: "Daoyou's words are very reasonable, but we can't bet the treasure in one place, otherwise we will suffer." ”
He said, "We should divide our troops into two routes, and the other route will be led by me to the City of Crabs for clues." If you find a clue in the city, you can come back in time to inform everyone. ”
Regarding Qi Feiyun's decision, Cheng Ziming is not too obstructive. After all, the cultivation of Qi Feiyun's Qi Refining Peak was the highest in the group. According to the habit of respecting the strong of immortal cultivators, the leader of this team should have been Qi Feiyun.
If it doesn't take what Ziming decides, he will definitely stick to it. He was convinced that this deserted reef beach was the only place to get crab paste. He will stick to the beach until the moment when the reef blooms.
Fortunately, he is not alone, and he still has Wen Pearl by his side.
The Wen sisters have always advanced and retreated together, and have never been separated. And in this trial, the Wen sisters couldn't judge who was right and who was wrong between Cheng Ziming and Qi Feiyun, so they simply acted separately, so that if either side succeeded, at least one of the two sisters could win.
Cheng Ziming understands their choice very well, after all, not everyone uses courage and courage to put their eggs in the same basket.
However, sticking to one's beliefs in the midst of doubts, sticking to one's principles in loneliness, and enduring loneliness in the darkness and waiting for the dawn to come are inescapable tests on the path of cultivation.
He believed that this long, desperate wait was also part of the trial. It is the most critical part of the witch's test, and it is also the last level. Immortal cultivators have a longevity far beyond ordinary people, and should have extraordinary patience and perseverance.
The day after Qi Feiyun left, it rained heavily on the beach. Cheng Ziming and Wen Pearl hid in the black canopy of Yuzhou and were drenched in soup.
The wind, mixed with the rain, blew across the doorposts of the canopy and slammed down on the wooden table with a loud crackling sound.
Wen Pearl sat on the side of the wooden table, hugged her shoulders, brushed her wet hair, and said loudly: "Brother Cheng, this rain is too big, I don't know when it will stop, otherwise, let's test the isolation formation of Yuzhou." ”
The torrential rain was like a note, and the sound of warm pearls was intermittent in the thunderstorm. Fortunately, Cheng Ziming, as an immortal cultivator, still has this bit of ear power, so that he will not hear her words clearly.
He sat on the other side of the canopy, wiped the rain from his head, and said loudly, "The level of the jade boat is too high, and the ordinary spirit stones are probably useless." And the spirit beads are too precious, and it is too wasteful to use them to shelter from the rain. Let's bear with us, maybe the rain will pass soon. ”
As soon as the words fell, suddenly a bolt of lightning struck from the sky, and the thick pillar of electricity was like a sharp sword from the clouds directly into the ground. The lightning just slashed at the reef on the side of the jade boat, and countless sparks bounced.
Wen Pearl shrank her head in fright, and said, "Brother Cheng, let's put a spirit bead for a test first." If you just activate the isolation formation, you may not need to spend too much spiritual power. ”
Cheng Ziming shook his head and sighed: "We have magic clothes, which can prevent rain and keep warm, and ordinary thunder and lightning can't hurt us." If you don't have a critical moment, it's better not to use the spirit bead lightly. I'm just a little wet with my hair, it's fine. If Sister Pearl feels cold, let's use it to resist the damp cold. ”
After speaking, he suddenly took out a green spirit bead from the storage bracelet, handed it to Wen Pearl and said: "The wood master grows, and the wood spiritual power is the most suitable for warming the body, it is better to use this bead to restore the spiritual power of the body, and use the spiritual power to resist the heavy rain, which is much more cost-effective than using the spirit bead to open the formation." ”
Wen Pearl took the Wood Spirit Bead, held it in her arms, and let out a long sigh.
Cheng Ziming was silent for a moment and asked, "Sister Pearl, do you have any regrets about staying here and waiting?" If you, like your sister, choose to go to the City of Crabs with your fellow Daoists, if nothing else, you can at least avoid this rainstorm." ”
Wen Pearl suddenly smiled, shook her head firmly, and said, "Brother Cheng, although the little sister doesn't know if you insisted on it correctly, the little sister never regretted staying with you. Heavy rain is nothing. The little sister is also an immortal cultivator, and she is not so pampered. ”
Cheng Ziming wiped the rain from his hair again, and sighed: "Now the prayer friend must be very cool, counting the days, he should also arrive in the city of crabs." Maybe he's eating and drinking in a restaurant with your sister right now. ”
At the same time, in the seafood stalls of the City of Crabs......
"Ahh
Wen Shan frowned and asked, "Brother Qi, what's wrong with you? Could it be that you are sick? This is not a trivial matter." We immortal cultivators almost never get sick, and once we get sick, it must be a big problem. Why don't we go back to Brother Cheng and ask him to help you take a look?"
Qi Feiyun shook his head again and again: "Don't expect Cheng Daoyou to do everything! As immortal cultivators, we must have our own decisions." Besides, I'm not sick. I've had sharp senses since I was a kid and would sneeze whenever someone lifted me up behind my back. These three sneezes just now, hum! Maybe it's your big brother Cheng talking about me behind my back. ”
"How could it be. Wen Coral lowered his head, picked out a crab from the basket, handed it to Qi Feiyun, and said, "Look at this, could it be a stone crab?"
"Miss Wen is very protective of Cheng Daoyou, so she is in a hurry to change the topic. Qi Feiyun glanced at the crab coldly and said, "This is a female crab, there is only crab roe, there can be no crab paste." ”
After speaking, Qi Feiyun raised his finger and pointed to the four baskets in front of him where the crabs were placed, and said, "These crabs, there are males and females, but they are definitely not the stone crabs we are looking for." According to the witch, the target of this trial is a day and night light stone crab that is as hard as iron. This kind of stone crab has a black back, white belly with lines similar to the pattern of "Tai Chi", and the crab paste in it is the most delicious, with a faint salty taste of seawater, which is the best in the crab paste. This kind of seafood should not be sold directly in this kind of food stall. ”
"So what are we doing here, it's not just for dinner. ”
"Come here, of course, I'm here to find out the news. These seafood dealers, surely know who the best fishermen are in the neighborhood, and if they find the old fishermen who often go to sea, they may be able to get a map of the nearby waters. ”
"Oh. Wen Coral nodded slightly. Looking at Qi Feiyun, there was a little more confidence in his eyes.
At this moment, there was a sudden noisy noise outside the seafood stall, and then a group of sergeants with waist knives strode in. One of the officers at the head was wearing armor and carrying two pieces of parchment in his hand, and when he entered the door, he stared at Wen Coral with malicious intent.
Qi Feiyun raised his hand to take off the spirit sword behind his back and blocked it in front of Wen Sango.
