65 Chapter 65 out at sea
Hope fishing village was indeed very small. It was located on the Delta of a River. This kind of land was usually very fertile, but they did not make a living by farming.
For the fishermen near the sea, the vast East Sea was a huge treasure.
After many years of fishing, the people of hope fishing village, from scattered to whole, formed two large boats. All the young and strong people in the village were assigned to the two boats and took turns to go out to sea.
Such a large ship allowed them to go out to sea further, fish more, and live better than other fishing villages.
However, if they went out to sea, the risk would also increase accordingly.
Not only were there treasures in the East Sea, but there were also countless strange things.
It was common knowledge that there were far more living things in the sea than on land. Correspondingly, there were more evil spirits in the sea.
And just like the ocean that had existed since time immemorial, the Evil in the Deep sea was even more ancient and mysterious.
What had happened in the small fishing village was perhaps just a drop in the ocean.
However, to the people in the village, it was the collapse of nearly half of the families.
Therefore, Li Chu was extremely serious about this matter.
When he arrived at hope fishing village, he saw the old village chief and a group of villagers waiting there.
As soon as the boat docked, it received a warm welcome from the villagers.
The old village chief took the lead and the villagers behind him enthusiastically stepped forward to shake Li Chu’s hand, especially the young women and women in the village.
They said that their husband and son had been turned into water monkeys, so they were hoping that Li Chu could save them.
In order to calm them down, Li Chu comforted them one by one.
However, as they held each other, more and more girls ran out of the village. The more they held each other, the more people there were, and eventually, a long line was formed.
Li Chu couldn’t help but ask the old village head, ” so many people’s husbands have become water monkeys? ”
The old village head coughed a few times with a red face and drove away all the girls who had come after hearing the news.
The village had prepared a seafood feast to entertain them.
Li Chu was a little tempted.
After the little koi fish came to deyun temple, there was an additional rule in the temple.
Don’t eat the fish!
He couldn’t even put fish balls in the hotpot.
Therefore, in Yuhang Town, which was adjacent to the East Sea, the master and disciple had not eaten fish for a long time.
However, before the arrival of the little koi fish, it would take them half a month to plan a meal of meat and vegetables.
Without her, deyun temple might not have been as prosperous as it was now.
Li Chu could actually understand this. Any living creature that had gained sentience might not be able to bear to see their own kind being served on the dining table.
However, this also gave him a reminder.
The Fox girls were still fine, as humans didn’t have the habit of eating Fox meat.
In the future, they couldn’t accept demon slaves like pigs, cows, and sheep. Otherwise, their Taoist temple might as well be turned into a temple.
but …
Li Chu decided to put the seafood on hold and check on the water Monkey.
The old village head invited them over with great hospitality, but seeing that Li Chu was determined, he had no choice but to bring them to a pond outside the village.
As the water monkeys couldn’t leave the water for a long time, they were placed in the pond.
Outside the pond, the old village chief sighed, ” sigh, such a good sailor has turned into such a monster.
He took a look.
The pond wasn’t big, and it was surrounded by a fence. It was very loose, probably set up at the last minute. There were more than a dozen young men from the village watching with red tasseled Spears in their hands.
It meant that the old village chief was still on guard, afraid that these water monkeys would do something strange.
However, it should be the case since it was related to the evil.
There were 30 to 50 water monkeys swimming in the pond, making it a little crowded. However, the water monkeys looked very happy. They chased each other back and forth, and occasionally climbed up and down the trees. Sometimes, they would hang upside down, and sometimes, they would fish out the moon.
As for its appearance, it was exactly as Wang longqi had described.
Its size and posture were really similar to the wild monkeys on the mountain. The only difference was that the water monkey’s body was covered with dark green hard scales, and its tail looked sharper and stronger, which might make it easier to swim.
Oh, ” Wang longqi laughed, ” they’re quite open-minded. They’re even playing here.
“AI,” the old village chief sighed,”which normal person can have such a big heart? When they first came back, their faces were still full of worry, as they all remembered their identities. But now, he was becoming more and more like a real beast. I’m afraid that after a while, they’ll completely forget that they’re human!”
Li Chu’s eyesight was good, and he immediately saw a Water Monkey on the shore. It was different from the other water monkeys.
It looked at the water with a sad expression and stood with its claws behind its back. There were many wounds on its body, some of which were bandaged, and blood was still oozing out.
“Then what happened? It seems to be different from the others.” Li Chu asked.
“It, its name is Wu er. It’s the only person on the ship who can read.” The old village chief said, ” thanks to him, we can know what happened to them in detail.
“How did he get injured?” Li Chu asked again.
“Little Daoist priest li,” the old village chief laughed,”can you tell what’s different about these water monkeys with just one look?”
“No,” Li Chu shook his head after a quick glance.
“Yeah, they all look the same, so we can’t tell who is who. They slept with those maids on that small island. If the women in the house knew about it, they would naturally not spare them.”
“But I can’t recognize which one is my man, so I can only endure it.”
“But Wu er is different. He knows how to read and he was the first to come out and talk to us, telling us about the island. His wife knew that it was definitely him, so she was the first to explode. She picked up a rolling pin and rushed over. If we didn’t stop her, he wouldn’t have a single good scale now.”
“Pfft.” Wang longqi couldn’t help but smile and said, ” knowledge can change one’s fate …
Li Chu used his heart eye to check.
There was nothing special about the bones of these water monkeys. They looked no different from ordinary wild beasts.
If one had to point out the difference, it might be that they had less negative emotions such as hostility, ferocity, and fiendish Qi. After all, they had human souls in their bodies.
After that, they had a sumptuous seafood feast.
The seafood made by the fishermen might not be as exquisite as those in big restaurants, but it was absolutely fresh and tender, and there was a large amount of it.
While they were eating, Wang longqi considerately said, ” “When we board the ship later, don’t eat too much.”
Li Chu and the Fox girl nodded.
However, when it came to eating, he couldn’t care so much. It’s not too much to eat until you’re 120% full to barely fill your stomach, right?
Especially the Fox girl. She looked like a weak little girl, but she only had an extra tail.
Who knew that her appetite alone was comparable to three young men, and the way she ate was like a hungry dog pouncing on its food, which stunned the surrounding villagers.
After she finished eating, she smiled in embarrassment, wiped her mouth elegantly, and nodded gently.
Dignified.
With this meal, she successfully changed the villagers ‘evaluation of her from ” she’s actually a monster ” to ” she’s indeed a monster.
He had no choice, he was used to being hungry.
She stole a glance at Li Chu and realized that he was eating even harder than she was. But he just appeared so calm, so carefree, so unrestrained.
She also thought to herself, as expected of my master.
After dinner, they boarded a large ship sent by the village and set sail with eight or nine experienced sailors.
The sea Map along the way was drawn by the water Monkey with its claws. Although it was a little crooked, it should be close to the mark. After all, they were all experienced fishermen and had sailed back based on their memories.
Not long after they got on the boat, Wang longqi laid on the back of the boat and started to vomit.
He had gone out to sea before and suffered losses, so he had told her in advance that he was only 80% full.
Who would have thought that it would still be so bad.
However, what puzzled him was that Li Chu and the Vixen, who were out at sea for the first time, did not have any reaction at all. The Fox girl was enjoying the view of the ocean and yelping from time to time.
Wang longqi walked over with a pale face and asked in grief and indignation, ” “Why don’t you two get seasick?”
The master and servant looked at each other and shrugged.
Her eyes seemed to be saying,”no way, no way, no way, it can’t be that someone would really get seasickness, right?” That would be too useless!
Wang longqi pouted and left, feeling wronged.
After about four hours, the sailor on the bow of the ship scratched his head and said, ” “That’s weird.”
“What’s the matter?” Li Chu asked as he walked over.
“According to the map, we should be there now,” the sailor said. At the very least, it should be within sight, but Yingluo ”
He pointed at the bare sea in front of him. There was nothing there.
Li Chu frowned. This was a little difficult.
Could it be a secret realm or a mobile Island?
They had only exchanged a few words when they suddenly heard the sailor behind them shout again,”Oh-”
When he looked up, he saw the rolling black clouds gathering.
The clouds moved in all directions!
The sailor shouted,”the sky has changed-”
