Chapter 163 Meeting Tong Yao
It was still midnight, but occasionally the sound of cans being smashed could be heard next door.
Tian Lin spent the night in this small courtyard last night and has become accustomed to the noise next door.
He thought for a while and asked Yu'er: "Master Long Dan next door, do you know him?"
Yu'er said hurriedly: "Alchemist Long likes to stay in the alchemy room and often doesn't go out for a month or two. All matters in the yard are decided by his maid Zhong'er."
"You take my famous thorn tomorrow and see if Master Long is free one day so that I can visit you."
There was no talk that night. Tian Lin went to Shenxiantang early the next morning and went fishing with the Sanhe Gang.
When he came back empty-handed in the afternoon, Yu'er said to Tian Lin: "His Zhong'er said that Master Long Dan is in retreat during this period, and I'm afraid he won't come out until the end of the month."
Tian Lin nodded. The Buddha's Demonic Pill he brought back yesterday has not been touched yet.
Yu'er suggested that Tian Lin buy the Buddha and Demon Freedom Skill from Long Dan Master, which might be cheaper.
But Tian Lin knew in his heart that a set of magical powers, even if it was not a secret.
I'm afraid it would cost a lot of spirit stones to get it, and what I lacked most now was spirit stones.
In the evening, Tian Lin didn't go out for a stroll. Instead, he took the "Shenxian Tang Fish Demon Record" that was begged from the Sanhe Gang and started reading it.
Yu'er made a cup of tea for Tian Lin. Tian Lin took a sip and frowned: "Where does this tea come from?"
When he drank tea, he clearly felt that the tea contained spiritual energy.
According to the prompt, this tea is indeed no ordinary tea.
Yu'er heard the words and immediately said:
"This is the peacock tea that my servant bought during the day. It has quite a health-preserving effect. In addition to being a tea for you to drink on weekdays, this tea is mainly used to entertain guests."
"This tea is not cheap."
Listen to Yu'er say: "You can buy one or two of this tea for a low-grade spirit stone."
Tian Lin said: "I don't usually have the habit of drinking tea. From now on, just use ordinary tea leaves when making tea for me."
Yu'er's face turned sad after hearing this, and she gained a new understanding of Tian Lin's stinginess.
But she couldn't say much, so she helped Tian Lin keep the lights on until midnight.
Early the next morning, Tian Lin left the county and went directly to Shenxiantang.
But this time he didn't go looking for the Sanhe Gang. Instead, he took out the thousand-year-old wooden boat from the storage bag, took the homemade harpoon, and paddled directly towards the distant sea.
Tian Linchuan's advantage was that although the Sanhe Gang arrived earlier than him, they didn't set off as quickly as he did.
He took advantage of the sea breeze and sailed into the mist of the sea in an instant.
The sea breeze blew and the boat under Tian Lin swayed. The deeper you go into the sea, the more violently the ship shakes, and it seems that it may capsize at any time.
"To others, the water in Shenxian Pond is not only poisonous. Once it enters the water, the true energy cannot circulate.
But to me, this sea water is just the Golden Spirit Foundation Building Pool. Not only can it not suppress my true energy, but it can also allow me to absorb golden spiritual energy at any time. ”
Tianlin spent a whole morning rafting, and by this time we were already far away from the coast.
Ahead, the sound of fish swimming finally sounded. Tian Lin took off his clothes on the boat and even threw the storage bag on the boat. He only took a wooden sword and harpoon and jumped into the water.
The wooden sword and harpoon are both made of thousand-year-old wood, so there is no need to worry about sinking into the sea.
With a wooden sword in his left hand and a harpoon in his right hand, Tian Lin dived into the sea with a fierce force.
He kicked his feet fiercely in the water, and his body appeared directly in front of a two-headed fish like an arrow from the string.
The two-headed fish does not have two heads, but a white pattern that looks like a human head on the left and right sides of its black tail, so it is called the two-headed fish.
The two-headed fish Tian Lin faced was obviously an adult, and its size was not much smaller than Tian Lin's boat.
The wooden sword and harpoon smashed the fish scales with difficulty and penetrated three inches into the fish body.
The two-headed fish was in pain, and with a swing of its tail it swept directly into the middle of the forest, and then rolled in the sea water.
Thanks to Tian Lin's rough skin and thick flesh, he was able to withstand the heavy blow from the fish's tail.
In order to prevent the two-headed fish from breaking free, he clamped the fish's body between his legs, grasped the hilt of the sword and the harpoon tightly with both hands, and followed the two-headed fish as it sank and rose in the sea.
He had perfected the Kumbhaka technique and didn't worry about breathing at all.
The two-headed fish has a tenacious vitality, and even a small injury is not enough to kill it.
Tian Lin had no choice but to hold on to the hilt of the sword with one hand and hit the two-headed fish with the other.
Although Shen Xiantang cannot suppress Tian Lin's true energy, when Tian Lin's true energy comes out of his body, the sea water will dissolve every bit of the true energy that escapes from his body.
Therefore, although Tian Lin's fist was powerful, when it actually hit the two-headed fish, its power was 80% to 90% weaker.
One person and one fish fought in the water. After more than an hour, the two-headed fish finally exhausted its strength and turned up in the water.
Tian Lin stepped out of the water on the two-headed fish and looked at the busy sea. He could no longer see his wooden boat.
On the wooden boat were not only his clothes, but also his storage bags.
Logically speaking, the storage bag will sink even if it falls into water. As long as Tian Lin holds on tightly, there is no need to worry about the storage bag being 'eaten' by Shen Xiantang.
However, Tian Lin entered the water and fought for his life. In order to avoid losing the storage bag during the fight, he naturally did not dare to carry it with him.
So the storage bags had to be left on the boat, and now they had to look for the missing boat.
"This should not be far from where I entered the water. I am afraid that the sea wind will blow the ship into the fog, and it will be difficult to find it."
Tian Lin emerged from the water and flew up.
With his foundation-building skills and the Wind Movement technique at hand, it is not difficult to walk on the waves.
As the sea rises and falls, so does the forest standing on the sea.
He glanced around and finally sensed the location of the flying sword.
As his thoughts moved, Feijian let out a soft cry from far to near.
When Tian Lin entered the sea, he had tied the hilt of the flying sword to the hull of the boat. When the flying sword flew towards him, he drove the small boat towards Tian Lin through the waves.
Thanks to his foundation-building cultivation, the range of his spiritual consciousness is much wider than during the Qi Refining Stage, and the intensity of his spiritual consciousness is also much stronger than during the Qi Refining Stage.
But even so, it was easy for him to control the flying sword with his spiritual consciousness, but it was a bit difficult to use the flying sword to drive the boat against the wind.
As soon as the boat approached, Tian Lin turned over and got into the sea, pulling up the two-headed fish that was sinking three feet under the water.
The two-headed fish is a fish monster that belongs exclusively to this layer of sea, and its body will not sink to the bottom.
But even so, Tian Lin had nowhere to work to hold up the two-headed fish in the water.
He flipped out of the sea again, stood on the bow of the ship and exerted force.
The handle of the harpoon broke instantly, and Tian Lin took out three or four more harpoons from the storage bag and stabbed it into the fish.
While others are on the boat, the true energy can be released.
Seeing Tian Lin's exertion, the boat sank slightly, and the two-headed fish in the sea was instantly lifted into the air.
Without waiting for the two-headed fish to hit the bow of the boat, Tian Lin only waited for the two-headed fish to leave the sea, directly controlled his spiritual consciousness, and put the body of the two-headed fish directly into the storage bag.
Although the clouds and fog on the sea have not completely dissipated at this time, the sun has already been exposed to Tian Lin's smooth body.
Tian Lin frowned and looked at a flying boat in the distance.
On the flying boat, a little girl spat and cursed: "You are a very old person, are you ashamed?"
The little girl is wearing a white coat and skirt, with cloud patterns woven from gold threads on the sleeves and buttons inlaid with beads, all indicating that this teenage girl has reached the early stage of foundation building.
Tian Lin's eyes glanced at the middle-aged woman next to the little girl, and he was even more surprised. He quickly put on his clothes, saluted the middle-aged woman sitting cross-legged at the bow of the boat next to the little girl, and said, "Junior Tian He has met Senior Tong."
The woman looked at Tian Lin after Tian Lin put on her clothes, and said in a cold voice: "Do you recognize me?"
Tian Lin said hurriedly: "This junior is a worshiper of the Tong family, so I recognize Patriarch Tong."
This middle-aged woman is Tong Yao, Tian Lin has seen her in fantasy.
At that time, the other party was just a young girl, but now she has become a tall and beautiful woman.
But Tian Lin recognized Tong Yao, but Tong Yao did not recognize Tian Lin. Besides, Tian Lin is still in disguise.
"No wonder you are fishing here - but this is no longer offshore. Even if you have foundation building skills, it is still very dangerous. It is better to go back as soon as possible."
Tong Yao spoke without looking at Tian Lin.
Tian Lin saluted and said yes. He had been waiting on the boat for Tong Yao's flying boat to go away, and then he straightened up.
Just now Tong Yao advised him not to go deep into the deep sea, but she went into the deep sea herself.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Tian Lin didn't know whether the other party was investigating the matter of Shaoyu in Shenxiantang, or whether he was investigating the Nine Lives Master——
These things have nothing to do with him. He is only worried that Tong Yao will see him going into the sea to fish.
You know, if a normal person falls into the Shenxian Pond, even if he is a Golden Core cultivator, he will sink directly to the bottom.
If someone knew that he could enter the Shenxian Pond without sinking into the water, could he resist being arrested and tortured?
"I obviously tried to stay as far away from the coast as possible, but I still had the bad luck to run into this ancestor of the Tong family. But she probably didn't see me entering the water, otherwise she wouldn't be so indifferent."
Tian Lin looked at the sky. It was still afternoon, but he was afraid that Tong Yao would hit her again when she returned, so he simply returned to the coast.
Near the coast, the big boats of the Sanhe Gang are still fishing.
But what kind of fish are there in the offshore area? Even if there are fish, the fish demon hiding a few feet below the sea surface is not that easy to sting.
Zhang Xiaoke, who was wearing a scarf on the bow of the boat, also saw Tian Lin, saw him put away the harpoon, bowed his hands to Tian Lin and then asked Tian Lin:
"I wonder if seniors caught any fish today?"
Tian Lin smiled and did not hesitate to release the two heads from the storage bag.
This two-headed fish was huge, and with Tian Lin standing on the boat, the boat could barely accommodate the two-headed fish.
As soon as the ship sank, there were signs of overturning.
Tian Lin stepped on the side of the boat with his feet to stabilize the balance of the boat before it tipped over.
The fishermen on the big boat and the small boats next to the big boat couldn't help but exclaimed:
"This fish is worth twenty or thirty low-grade spiritual stones, right?"
Immediately a boatman asked Tian Lindao: "Senior, where did you catch this fish?"
How could Tian Lin conceal something like this that was destined to be exposed?
He said bluntly: "It took a lot of effort to catch it in the open sea."
Not only is it a lot of strength?
If such a big fish were on the shore, not even a Qi Practitioner would be afraid of it.
Or in ordinary sea areas, even Qi Refiners can easily capture it.
But in Shenxian Pond, even the foundation-building monks would find it difficult to fish it out of Shenxian Pond.
"Senior's cultivation is unpredictable and I admire him."
After Zhang Xiaoke finished speaking, Tian Lin had put the two-headed fish on the boat back into the storage bag.
He did not stay here for long, and returned to the coast in a boat under the envious eyes of a group of people.
There is Tongjia's riverside building on the coast, which is a railing-style building that is different from other shops.
This riverside building has been built for hundreds of years. Although it is still tall, the wooden pillars and thresholds have long been pitted.
The Hebo Inn was built next to a brothel. The brothel seemed extremely lively, but the entrance to the Hepo House was deserted.
When Tian Lin entered the river bank, he only smelled the faint smell of fish, but did not see the water officer of the river bank.
Fortunately, someone saw from Tian Lin's clothes that Tian Lin was a strong foundation builder, so he took the initiative to help Tian Lin go to the brothel to call someone.
Not long after, the fair and fat Shui Guan ran down from the brothel next door while wearing his belt.
He cupped his hands in front of Tian Lin and asked Tian Lin: "Senior, what do you want?"
Tian Lin didn't waste any time. He first took off the Tong family's offering card and showed it to Shui Guan, and then took out the two-headed fish from the storage bag.
"Weigh it to see how much the spirit stone is worth."
The two-headed fish was so huge that it made the thick stone table at the door sink.
The water officer couldn't help but take a breath, and the onlookers around him subconsciously came up to look at the two-headed fish as big as a small boat.
"If this were the Five Elements Jiao, it would be a huge profit."
Someone commented like this.
After all, the two-headed fish only has five internal organs and fish scales to use, but how heavy can the internal organs be? How many kilograms can fish scales weigh?
The Five Elements Jiao is different. The Five Elements Jiao is full of five poisons. Whether it is fish scales, internal organs, fish meat or fish bones, it can be exchanged for money.
"Senior, wait a minute, I will cut up the fish for you right now!"
Shuiguan wiped his hands. The strange thing was that he had not touched fish just now, but his hands seemed to have a fishy smell.
Tian Lin frowned, stopped his hand from touching the knife, and summoned the flying sword to cut open the belly of the fish.
With a wave of his right hand, all the organs in the fish body fell into the iron basin on the side.
Without using the water officer, Tian Lin shaved off the gills and scales of the fish and threw them into the basin.
The water officer then took the weight and said, "Senior, do you want this fish meat? If you don't want the fish meat, you can sell it to us for two taels of spiritual stones."
Tian Lin took a look at the body of the two-headed fish, and the prompt word showed that although this thing was not a good thing, it could improve eyesight and replenish water aura.
This is much stronger than the spiritual energy others get from eating spiritual rice.
"If I remember correctly, the meat of the two-headed fish is inedible. What do you use it for?"
Shuiguan heard the words and immediately explained:
"Although the meat of the two-headed fish is poisonous, the poison is not indestructible. You only need to spend money to buy some medicine to detoxify most of the poison. The rest is nothing more than diarrhea."
He said: "Strong men like you, senior, and children of aristocratic families naturally do not need to eat two-headed fish to replenish their spiritual energy. But for those untouchables, two-headed fish is the only spiritual meat they can afford. ”
Tian Lin suddenly understood and said: "I can sell you the internal organs, but I want to take the meat of the two-headed fish back and eat it myself."
Shui Guan thought he heard wrongly and did not move for a while.
Tian Lin directly put the body of the two-headed fish back into the storage bag and asked the water official: "After weighing the fish scales and internal organs, how many spiritual stones do you plan to give me?"
If you are an ordinary fisherman, the water officer will naturally lower the price aggressively.
But Tian Lin is a foundation-building monk, and he is a worshiper of the Tong family, so he naturally does not dare to be greedy for spiritual stones.
The ten kilograms of internal organs and more than eight kilograms of fish scales were converted into a total of twenty-six low-grade spiritual stones.
Being able to obtain twenty-six low-grade spiritual stones by fishing, it must be said that this achievement is already very good.
But Tian Lin was not satisfied with this and decided to go deeper into the sea tomorrow.
