Once Upon A Time, There Was A Spirit Sword Mountain

“Oh, it’s more prosperous here than when I came here. Well, it’s a change from Heaven and Earth turning upside down.”

In a spacious On the road, Aya, dressed in a gray cloak, looked surprised at the tall buildings on both sides of the road standing in great numbers.

Now, along with Wang Lu and the others, she has arrived at Nine Provinces Continent’s Extreme West, a city named Tianlu. Looking around, there is a bustling scene.

“This is one of the east-west continent’s trading hubs, and it is a newly built port city. It is naturally changing with each passing day. It was a hundred years ago when you came. It was just built here, and it is no better than a small fishing village. How much, it’s already a big city with a population of tens of thousands.”

Besides the prosperity, what is even more impressive is the mixed and open culture here. The culture of the eastern and western continents develops with the development of trade. , Personnel exchanges become integrated, and the various cultural crystallizations that have been born are even more eye-catching.

It’s a pity that the entire group doesn’t have much time to stay here and enjoy the scenery. Wang Lu’s schedule is very closely arranged. When we arrived at Tianlu City, it happened to be Mysterious Heaven Hall bound for Western Continent’s merchant ship fleet. The day of sailing.

Nowadays, about half of the East-West continent trade is ruled by Mysterious Heaven Hall and its various Chamber of Commerce. After all, only huge monsters like Mysterious Heaven Hall have enough resources and manpower to organize trade across the continent. , The deadly fog of the endless sea, and the endless sea monster Demon, it is absolutely extraordinary that Chamber of Commerce can handle it.

Wang Lu successfully contacted the branch of Tianlu City through Wisdom Cult and Mysterious Heaven Hall for many years, and set a good time with a fleet under the branch, and set sail together with the merchant ship western. This kind of fleet only sails two or three times a year. Missing this opportunity will have to wait a few months. In addition to Mysterious Heaven Hall’s fleet, although there are many other cargo ships, it is difficult to guarantee safety and other issues.

Through the contact information sent by Mysterious Heaven Hall, Wang Lu entire group found the leader of the fleet at the pier and was ready to land and set off. However, as every seasoned adventurer is familiar with: any adventure, Most of the time is spent dealing with emergencies. Wang Lu They just encountered an emergency.

“To put it simply, you want to sit on the ground and start the price? The 1 thousand spirit stone that was originally scheduled can’t fill you up?”

On the dock, facing the warm and humid sea breeze, Wang Lu smiled slightly, but there was no warmth in the smile.

Standing in front of Wang Lu is a burly, red-skinned, black-skinned middle age person, who is the Chief-In-Charge Nie Yang of fleet. As the Vice-President of Mysterious Heaven Hall in the branch of Tianlu City, Nie Yang has a high reputation in Tianlu City. At the same time, he has an impressive Immortal Way cultivation base. Ordinary cultivators are respectful when they meet him. Wang Lu looked at with cold eyes, but he couldn’t help but burst into cold sweat, panicking in his heart.

“Sit on the ground and start the price…maybe it’s not wrong.” After all, after seeing the big storms, Nie Yang calmed his mind and opened his mouth to explain, “But it’s really helpless. Sudden changes in the sea and increased risks. In order to deal with the risks, fleet has made a lot of arrangements, and the cost of sailing has doubled. The originally agreed 1 thousand spirit stone is really not enough to pay, so I have to look down and sit down and start the price… …In fact, the price of three thousand spirit stones is not enough to cover the cost.”

Wang Lu didn’t intend to calculate the cost with the other party, but said with a sneer: “If there is no risk in this continent’s trade , Who is it for you to do it? You are businessmen and you should know the spirit of the contract.”

Nie Yang said: “The contract also stipulates that if force majeure occurs, we have the right to adjust the price. “

“Yes, the definition of force majesty is free to explain to you.”

Nie Yang said: “Please believe that we definitely did not intend to blackmail. It is really helpless. These things are also detrimental to our Mysterious Heaven Hall’s reputation. If it hadn’t been for the fleet that departed from Xiling Port some time ago, which stirred up turbulent waves on the endless sea, we would not have taken such a tactic. In fact, we are now willing to go to sea. There are not many fleets.”

Seeing that Nie Yang said that he didn’t let go, but he was biting to death to triple the already expensive ship’s capital, Wang Lu frowned deeply.

Of course, he doesn’t care about thousands of spirit stones. Perhaps it is a huge sum of money for a general cultivator, but his net worth is hard to count. Thousands of thousands of spirit stones are nothing but pocket money. But he didn’t like to be raised by others. However, Nie Yang’s temporary price increase makes sense in the contract…

“If you are embarrassed, it’s okay not to talk to his fleet.”

Standing in silence Behind Wang Lu, a girl dressed in gray robe said softly.

Wang Lu shook his head: “The endless sea is vast and endless, and changes are endless. It is not unusual to encounter any situation at sea. It is really difficult to cross the sea without skilled fleet guidance.”

The girl said: “It’s not that difficult. I used to cross the sea alone when I came from western. I didn’t find a suitable fleet at that time.”

Wang Lu surprisedly said: “Cross the sea alone. You came here!?”

The girl said: “I have the blessing of the elves, I can walk freely on the water, so I came directly. Of course, occasionally encounter tsunamis and huge waves. It’s more troublesome, but generally speaking, as long as you aim straight ahead, you will always reach your destination.”

“…” Wang Lu sighed in his heart, no wonder you run out of oil soon after you came to Nine Provinces Continent The lamp is dry, what a damn deserved it!

Wang Lu has nothing to say, but Nie Yang listened to the girl’s speech, but he didn’t agree with him, persuaded: “It is true that brilliant cultivator can be used for the Imperial Spatial Flight for a long time, but even if you don’t consider the position of the sea, The giant beast dormant in the ocean is no small thing. According to legend, even the Nascent Soul Daoist Master can’t resist it. If you don’t follow fleet, meeting with sea monsters will be troublesome.”

Wang Lu is also curious, I asked: “Aya, did you encounter a sea monster attack in the first place?”

“Of course, it was just expelled by me. But there are indeed many powerhouses in the sea, and I occasionally feel uncomfortable when fighting. “

When Aya crossed the sea, in theory, she was close to Body Fusion Stage cultivator’s strength, which could make her feel uncomfortable. That is not the current Wang Lu team can deal with head-on. In that case…< /p>

“Then get on the boat.” Wang Lu shrugged.

——

Wang Lu and the others boarded the fleet after paying half of the ship’s freight. Chief-In-Charge of fleet Nie Yang personally led them into the five first-class rooms on the pilot boat. The guest rooms of Wang Lu and the others are specially modified, luxuriously decorated and spacious, occupying almost an entire floor of the huge pilot boat. There are only six rooms on that floor, and five of them are occupied by Wang Lu and the others. , Only one room is left empty. In fact, this is also the main reason for the huge amount of shipping. Otherwise, how can the shipping cost of a few travellers have thousands of spirit stones?

Shortly after fleet set sail, Nie Yang eagerly came to find Wang Lu. On the one hand, he was busy expressing apologies, and on the other hand, he introduced them to a neighbor with a special identity.

On this floor of the cabin, apart from Wang Lu and the others, there is only one passenger, and it is the one who followed Nie Yang.

“This is our navigator, Ayun.” With a warm smile, Nie Yang pushed the girl on the side forward. “She is our biggest guarantee for our trip to Western Continent. !”

Wang Lu looked at the girl named Ayun with a little surprise. She looked only 13-14 years old, a bit like a mixed race of multiple races, with both features and two continents. Characteristics. The young girl has long hair like white clouds, her skin is white and tender with rosy, she is totally unlike ordinary sea people who have experienced wind blowing and sun shining. At the same time, the girl’s dress is also luxurious. A short dress woven from the finest spiritual silk, untainted by even a speck of dust, envelops her immature but curvy body. Limbs are exposed, and expensive jade stone bracelets are worn on wrists and ankles. On the delicate neck, there are two strings of necklaces, one string is neat and clean shells, the other string is huge round pearls. Most of a trivial piece of jewelry contains a vague immortal spiritual qi breath, which is definitely not a mortal world instrument.

Wang Lu looked carefully at the girl in front of him, and at the same time the girl raised her eyes, looked at Wang Lu, and greeted him slightly nodded, her posture seemed calm and generous, not at all like a 13-14 years old. The cardamom girl who doesn’t know the world. In the nodded room, Wang Lu saw that behind the girl’s ears, there seemed to be a few scaly things faintly growing.

Nie Yang noticed Wang Lu’s gaze, and introduced with a smile: “Ayun is the clansman of the sea, the most professional navigator of the endless sea.”

“The sea?”< /p>

“Well, the legend is the family of Heaven and Earth Blessing. They were born in the endless sea. They have unique perception and affinity for this treacherous ocean. As everyone knows, the endless sea is unpredictable. Even the most experienced sailor can hardly predict what will happen at the next moment. However, sea clansman is keenly aware of ocean changes and makes early warnings. Similarly, ominous beasts living in the sea usually do not attack sea clansman. The ship you ride. So as long as there is a marine navigator in the fleet, ten percent of the endless sea is dangerous, then went ninety percent. Of course, with this kind of ability, the price is naturally high. Power, Jiaojiao and timid, I want to ask her to come forward. No such number is impossible.”

Nie Yang stretched out a slap, gestured twice, and signaled ten thousand spirit stone.

Wang Lu nodded said he knew it. Nie Yang brought Ayun to see them, obviously also explaining why he was sitting on the ground and raising the price.

Ten thousand spirit stone, tsk tsk, generally speaking. A fleet of voyages can have a profit of tens of thousands of spirit stone, which is very good. This is a business that bears the mortal danger. And the sea girl can get ten thousand spirit stone as long as she goes out to sea. Sure enough, knowledge is power.

Nie Yang patted the shoulder of the girl Ayun, and said with emotion: “Generally, we would not invite clansman to go out. But some time ago, the fleet of Xiling Port was meeting with Sea Beast at sea. , The fleet contained a lot of powerful cultivators. They relied on their strong military force, and instead of placing sacrifices in accordance with the usual practice, they fought Sea Beast. As a result… alas, the robber-like Sea Beast was indeed cleared of bits and pieces. But it also provoked the anger of the ominous beasts in the sea. After the fleet passed, the entire endless sea was not peaceful. Before that, three fleets were attacked by the angry Sea Beast and the whole army was wiped out. Now there is no sea race. Navigator, no one dared to go to sea anymore.”

Wang Lu waved his hand: “It’s OK, you know, it’s not the one who spends money without spending money. We paid the down payment, and we will pay the balance when we arrive. , Are you still afraid that we will not be in arrears? We are very contractual, and will not just use force majeure as an excuse to modify the contract.”

Nie Yang naturally smiled bitterly, and took him a moment later. Yun said goodbye and left.

Wang Lu watched Ayun’s exquisite back gradually fade away, sighed in his heart.

The fleet of Xiling Port…isn’t it the Excavation Management Committee’s team, led by Daoist Master Feng Yin, the lineup is particularly luxurious, nicknamed the dream team, and the result is simply a dream team! Each minding their own business in front of them played well, but they left a mess that made future generations choking!

I only hope that these two thousand spirit stones are worth the money.
