Chapter 327
Now the biggest problem of the Seventeenth War Department is that the lone army is out and cannot keep up with all the supplies. Although Xiahe's savings can support it, the operation of the War Department is not that simple. Without the flow of resources to operate, it is difficult to maintain the War Department. Therefore, Xiahe's top priority is to find a way to survive for the war department.

Xia He thought about it, but he didn't come up with any good solution. As the saying goes, it's hard for a good woman to cook without rice. The East China Sea was turned into a scorched land of cultivating immortals by the battle of exterminating the family a hundred years ago. The Seventeenth War Department was forced to station here, and it was really unsustainable.

But Xia He couldn't leave with the war department, because the order to be stationed in the East China Sea was an order issued by Wen Gongdao in the name of the Presbyterian Church, which had the supreme effect. If Xia He dared to disobey, he would be executed justifiably. The entrance of the East China Sea into the inland, Xiahe wants to leave, absolutely can't pass this hurdle, after all, the relationship between Zhan Pozhen and Yu Changsheng and him is very unfriendly.

The situation is difficult, Xia He can do nothing but obedience and obedience. The elders will ask him to garrison the East China Sea, but there is no fixed location. Xia He can find a place to hide at will, avoiding the army of the Sea King Palace. This is also easy to explain. The coastline is too Commander, I can't defend with a single man in the war department. When the Neptune Palace and the island army arrive and get into a big battle with the Twin Cities Alliance, Xia He will be much more relaxed. No one will pay attention to his small war department.

Xia He paid attention in his heart, and decided not to waste time on the empty shore, and immediately ordered the war department to station there, and sent soldiers to patrol around to check the terrain on the coastline.

The people in the war department took out the caves of the organs and installed them on the sand. After a while, the sand on the east coast was lined with dense caves, as if they were towns rising from the ground.

The members of the Seventeenth War Department set off from the sea sand gathering point and rushed all the way to the East China Sea. They were already exhausted. All the soldiers hid in the cave to cultivate and nourish their energy. Several generals still cheered up and guarded the camp of the War Department.

Suddenly a few figures flashed outside the camp, and three generals flew over, easily catching them, and after a closer look, they were the fishermen who had gone and returned.

Xia He was called out of the cave, and saw his generals standing in a row with the fisherman who had been released not long ago, he was a little puzzled, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Gu Tianwei took the lead and said, "Master, these fishermen said they wanted to see you, and they came here with gifts to thank you for letting them go."

Xia He felt a little bored, what good things these mortals could come up with, he waved his hands disapprovingly, "I accept your wishes, but I don't need anything, I don't need your thank you gifts."

The leading fisherman said reverently, "Master Immortal Cultivator, there is nothing good in our fishing village, but the deep-sea pearls salvaged by the pearl divers in the village are famous far and wide. Now I specially picked the biggest ones and presented them to Your Excellency."

The fishermen opened the packages in their arms, revealing the white as jade clam shells, opened the clam shells, and revealed the pearls as big as a fist inside, the pearls were shining brightly, and the whole body was round, obviously the best quality, placed in a prosperous inland country, It can be said to be priceless, but in the eyes of Xia He, a cultivator, these pearls are just a little more beautiful decorations. Looking at the eager eyes of the fishermen, Xia He felt that the hospitality was hard to bear, so he reluctantly said to them, "Thank you! gift."

Several fishermen were very excited. The leading fisherman nodded and bowed to Xiahe, and extended an invitation to him, "Master Cultivator, our fishing village is not far away. If you are willing, can you take a walk in the fishing village and let me treat you well?" Master cultivators."

Gu Tianwei felt that the name of the fisherman was inappropriate, so he reminded him aloud, "This is our department head, don't tell each adult. As for the fishing village..."

Xia He suddenly said, "Is your fishing village really not far away?" His immediate intention was to accept the fisherman's suggestion.

The fisherman said happily, "Of course, of course, it only takes one day to go back and forth. If the boss doesn't think our village is dirty, you can go back to the village with us."

Regardless of Gu Tianwei's eagerness to persuade, Xia He said in a deep voice, "Tianwei, Dajiang, you two stay in the camp to restrain the members of the war department, Wenxiu, you and I will go to the fishing village."

The day the fisherman said was aimed at mortals walking on two legs. When they returned, there were two immortal cultivators, Xia He and Yin Wenxiu. It was like flying like lightning, and they didn’t need imperial weapons to fly. It was just a simple wind control, and they arrived at the fishing village in a short time. where.

Several fishermen had never flown in the sky all their lives. When Xiahe put them on the ground, their legs were weak, their mouths were crooked and their eyes were squinted. Are you back early?"

The fisherman, who was called Uncle Zhang, said with a bluff, "Hurry up and call the whole village over. The immortal cultivators are here. This is our fishing village's luck, so hurry up and visit the immortal cultivators."

While urging the villagers, Uncle Zhang entertained Xia He graciously, "My lord, the small village is simple, I'm afraid it will dirty your precious feet."

Xia He said casually, "It doesn't matter." While taking a lot of pictures of the surrounding environment of the fishing village, this fishing village is located on a high land on the shore, surrounded by high cliffs to resist the sea wind blowing from all directions, and there are seabirds on the cliffs It is inhabited by seaweed and scallops. It is rich in products, and it is indeed suitable for fishermen to live in. Xiahe saw many fishermen wading barefoot in the reefs by the sea, using simple tools to pick up seashells and catch small fish. From time to time, there are more starfish and crabs.

Seeing that Uncle Zhang wanted to mobilize the crowd to welcome him, Xia He hurriedly said, "Don't come here, I like quietness. You can take me around and look at the scenery of the fishing village."

Uncle Zhang agreed piously, and then drove the people behind him home, waved away the children jumping on the side of the road, and led Xiahe into the fishing village. The fishing village covers a large area, with about thousands of households , is equivalent to a small town in the inland, but the houses are generally dilapidated, built with a few logs, and then covered with hay to make the roof, ventilated on all sides, and do not avoid outsiders.

Uncle Zhang saw the disgust in Xia He's eyes, and explained with a wry smile, "My lord, the seaside is full of sand, and there are no mountains to mine stones from. The sand here is not clay and cannot be burned into bricks, so we can only build a hasty house." Shed, but these few pieces of wood are still hard to come by. Weeds are lush by the sea, and shrubs half the height of a person are rare, not to mention the big logs that can be used for houses. These logs are transported into the village from outside and cost a lot of money. "

Xia He nodded in agreement. The environment of the seaside is similar to that of the desert. It is impossible for tall trees to grow, and tall bibliographies are just indispensable for early houses. There is not enough building materials, so these fishermen's residences are so simple.

Xiahe walked along the way, and through the simple huts, he saw the conditions of the fishermen's homes, which were dark and dark, with nothing in them. The good families had beds and iron pots, and the bad ones were only straw mats and All the fishermen hid in their homes, looking at strangers like Xia He in fear.

Xiahe never thought that there would be people living in such a difficult environment. The harsh environment these fishermen live in is simply shocking. It is no exaggeration to say that when Xiahe was in the capital, the cowsheds and stables of ordinary people were worse than those of fishermen. The house should be spacious and tall, and better able to shelter from wind and rain.

For the first time in his life, pure pity rose in Xia He's heart. He is usually a high-ranking Jindan real person, and he doesn't care about the life and death of ordinary people at all, but once he saw it with his own eyes, he couldn't restrain the impulse in his heart. Do something for these people.

Xia He looked at Uncle Zhang who was introduced attentively, and knew that he was the number one person in the fishing village, so he immediately asked, "Your ancestors were immortal cultivators, they should have magical powers, and must have left behind a lot of things, why do you live now?" so difficult?"

Uncle Zhang smiled wryly, the wrinkles on his forehead became deeper and deeper, and he said helplessly, "Master, you don't know that the environment here is suitable for us to live in, but when our ancestors came here, they found that the resources for cultivating immortals here are not enough. It was destroyed and mined, and it was a dead land for the cultivators. The ancestors escorted their subordinates here, and their mana was exhausted, and they could no longer move to other places. They could only live here. Later, the cultivators of the ancestors died of old age. If you die of illness, the next generation will never be able to produce immortals again."

This is all a good job done by Sifang Xianzong and Tumu Tianbao. Xia He thought in his heart that the descendants of the residents of the fishing village must have migrated over a hundred years ago. Immortal cultivators, that's why these fishermen have fallen into the current situation.

Xia He asked, "Without the abilities of your ancestors, your life must be very difficult!"

Uncle Zhang nodded empathetically, "My lord is right. This sea area is extremely dangerous. Huge, ferocious sea monsters often appear, and every time they appear, they will eat dozens of people. The people in our fishing village There are not a few people who died at the mouth of sea monsters, so we only dare to go fishing in the shallow sea close to the shore. Although the harvest is a little less, we must be safe after all."

Uncle Zhang suddenly thought of something, and said, "My lord, since a few years ago, this sea area has become harsh. Even if there is no wind on the sea, there are often big waves, and many sea beasts that were originally in the deep sea, slowly Migrating to the shallow sea, we go fishing, the danger is getting bigger and bigger, if we don’t pay attention, the boat will capsize and people will die.”

Xia He secretly guessed that these situations only happened this year, and it is most likely related to the invasion of the Sea King Palace. The 83 islands moved towards the East China Sea, and countless floating islands rushed towards the East China Sea. On the east coast, it brought disaster to the fishermen who make a living in the sea, and those sea beasts were also driven here.

Thinking of the impending Great War of Immortal Cultivators, Xia He couldn't help worrying about the fishing village in front of him. Such a dilapidated village is the foundation for these thousands of families to live and live, and it is so fragile that even a gust of waves can easily break it apart.

Yin Wenxiu, who was walking aside, seemed to see something, walked up to Xia He, and whispered something to him. Xia He saw the place Yin Wenxiu was pointing at, and walked slowly. Uncle Zhang didn't know why, but still followed quickly.
