Dressed as a cultivator, she wants to ascend
Chapter 135 First Arrival at Dongchun Island
The place where Lin Kexin and the four of them had to go was called Dongchun Island, which was to the east of Wangjian Sect and closer to the middle of Lanyu Continent.
Most of the people living on that island are mortals. Everyone on the island can fight and is not weak. There is also spiritual energy on the island, but it is rare. There are not many people with spiritual roots, but among these few people, there are several powerful people.
These great masters all did well in their respective sects, so even if they died, they still left a lot of affection in their sects.
This is the case in Wangjian Sect. There used to be a supreme elder in the sect who came from Dongchun Island. He was killed in order to steal resources for the sect. He has no children, so people in the sect will always pay attention to her hometown.
This time Wangjian Sect received a letter asking for help from Dongchun Island, saying that a monster appeared there and ate many of their people, and they were unable to deal with it, so they came to ask for help.
Before the three of them left the sect, Lin Kexin told them the seriousness of this matter and asked them to take it seriously.
Therefore, the four people stayed on the top of the mountain for one night. From the next day, they never stopped on the road, and the flying boat flew quickly towards Dongchun Island.
From this night on, no matter where they slept at night, there was someone on duty.
On the first night, because it was still within the Wangjian Sect's sphere of influence, it was relatively safe. They had completely left Wangjian Sect's sphere of influence the next night. If they didn't want to die at this time, they had to be more vigilant.
On the road, when they encountered those fighting, looting, or monsters, the four of them did not step forward to join in the fun, and avoided all those they could.
As for those who can't be avoided, fight if you can, and run if you can't. These people are not poor people, and they all have a lot of defensive magic weapons. If they use a few more pieces of defensive equipment, they will always run away.
In order for everyone to get enough rest or have time to practice. The four of them also divided the four of them into shifts, and everyone took turns to rest or drive the flying boat.
Lin Kexin also understood at this time that a simple task actually required three direct disciples. Is it possible that Sect Leader Qian wanted them to take turns to rest and reach their destination quickly?
After nearly two months like this, they finally arrived at Dongchun Island safely. Although there were twists and turns on the road, fortunately they arrived safely, but Lingshi suffered.
To put it bluntly, the reason why they were able to arrive safely and quickly was entirely because of the spiritual stones that opened the way.
A few of them got off the flying boat next to a huge rock with Dongchun Island carved on it. The faces of several people were not very good-looking, not only because they had spent spiritual stones, but more importantly because this place was too far away.
They haven't had a day's rest in the past two months, and they have been flying for a month at the expense of burning spiritual stones.
"Now I understand why the old people in the sect are unwilling to come here."
"Not only is this place far away, but the places we pass on the road are also very poor, and there is no chance to make extra money."
After listening to Tang Qingling's words, everyone nodded in agreement.
Although they were in a hurry, they did not delay their leisure time to find a better place, and they were ready to go directly on their way back. As a result, there were not many monks to see on the way, and even fewer monsters were seen.
"Let's go back and change the route. If we haven't completed the mission on the way, we might as well fight some monsters and other things to exchange for some spiritual stones, so that we can pay for the flying boat ride."
"Well, once you've finished the mission, there's no need to rush back. You can play outside for a while longer."
The last thing Gu Xiuyuan wanted was for Lin Kexin to return to the sect. He didn't want to go back to the cave he rented in Fangshi not long after he came out. Therefore, he was the first to respond to Tang Qingling's proposal.
"Let's get to the island quickly. It's almost dark today. Let's have a night's rest and start the mission tomorrow."
Lin Kexin looked at the sky and felt that there was no point in talking nonsense anymore, so she took the lead and entered the island.
Although it is already evening, there are many pedestrians on the street, and it is very lively. It seems that the monster didn't make too much noise, and everyone's daily life was not disturbed.
The four people had discussed it on the flying boat. They couldn't be said to be cultivators. They could only be said to be brothers and sisters from a hidden family. They came out to practice this time. Under Lin Kexin's suggestion, the other three people also changed their appearance to become more ordinary. The world of cultivation is rich in handsome men and beautiful women, and Lin Kexin didn't want them to be noticed by some people before the mission even started.
After confirming that everything was packed, they got off the boat.
The four of them wore similar costumes, and each of them was a hero holding a sword and an immortal spirit.
As soon as they entered the island, they saw many people taking to the streets with swords, and the four of them were not too out of the ordinary.
Gu Xiuyuan quickly found an inn and opened four rooms. After saying a simple goodbye, they went back to their houses to rest. No one came out to eat dinner, so I ate the food I prepared myself.
On the flying boat, they had no worries about eating or drinking, but the most worrying thing was sleeping.
The flying boat was flying smoothly, but Lin Kexin still felt like she was sleeping on the boat, so she didn't sleep well. Now that there is a bed to sleep on, of course you must hurry up. Even though this was an ordinary wooden bed, she slept soundly.
The next morning, Lin Kexin was resurrected with full health. She got up early and entered the space to practice for a day before coming out. She went to the lobby to order a breakfast, and ate it with relish regardless of whether it was impurities or not.
Halfway through her meal, the other three people came down one after another and did the same thing as Lin Kexin.
The mission is gone, eat first as a sign of respect!
After eating and drinking, one of the four of them had to go and chat with the person they were delivering the message to.
The person who sent the letter to the Wangjian Sect this time was named Li Dehai, who was also the head of the Cangwu Sect on Dongchun Island. The leader is said to be a well-rounded person and an eloquent speaker.
After the four people simply picked up the stone cloth, Hanying finally became the lucky one. He went to Cangwu Sect with the letter.
The other three people wandered around the island, looking for clues.
Head Li said that a man-eating monster appeared on the island, but they hadn't seen it yet, so they had better understand the situation first.
They also saw a few casual cultivators in the Qi refining stage on the island. The spiritual energy here is so thin, it is estimated that there are no people with higher cultivation levels.
Even if there were, given the size of the island, they would definitely be able to hold on until reinforcements arrived.
The four people agreed to meet at the inn in the evening and then dispersed.
Lin Kexin was going to the north of Dongchun Island. There were several villages there, and it was the farthest place from the Cangwu Sect on the island.
After parting, Lin Kexin did not rush to the north. Instead, she took out a few buns at the city gate and chatted with a few older beggars. After gaining a new understanding of Dongchun Island, I walked towards the north of the island.
There is almost no spiritual energy on this island, so if nothing happens, Wangjian Sect will not send anyone here. It seemed like the last time someone came was a hundred years ago.
For mortals, it is possible to travel to and from the underworld for a hundred years. Lin Kexin wanted to know what Dongchun Island is now a hundred years later. As for why I chose beggars, it was because the accents of those old beggars were different from those of the people around me.
After making some inquiries, Lin Kexin learned more about it and decided to go and see it on the spot.
Lin Kexin walked towards the city gate with the people leaving the city. When there was no one around, she approached the village with ethereal steps. When she arrived, neither early nor late, the village was a little quiet.
Everything seems normal now, but now that I have come, I still have to ask. She listened carefully before walking towards the place where the sound came from.
Next to a big tree in the village, several five or six-year-old children were playing. The clothes they wore were patched, but the children looked healthy.
Lin Kexin put on what she thought was an amiable smile, and then walked over.
"Hello kids, I'm just passing by and want to ask you something."
A few children who were playing very seriously turned around when they heard the sound and saw a beautiful sister in blue clothes talking to them.
However, they did not reply immediately. Instead, a sturdy little fat man came over and looked at Lin Kexin with a wary expression: "What's your name? Where are you from? What do you want to know?"
Could it be that she wasn't beautiful enough and her smile wasn't kind enough, so this little kid still asked her? She is a beautiful female fairy in the world of cultivation, but she can't fool a few brats!
Lin Kexin cursed in her heart, then put on a smile again and said gently: "My sister's name is Lin Kexin. I got lost and saw a village here so I came here to ask."
"If you don't believe it, you can call the adults at home."
"You're lying, mother said, girls can't run around alone." Behind the fat man, a fair little girl stretched out her head, pointed her finger at Lin Kexin and said loudly.
The corner of Lin Kexin's mouth twitched, feeling that she had made a bad start. I thought children were easy to talk to, but ended up getting slapped in the face repeatedly. Forget it, let’s find an adult!
"Well, girls can't just run around. But sister, I'm a female swordsman, so I can walk around."
Lin Kexin raised the sword in her hand as she spoke, and then said to them: "Are there any adults in your village? Can you take my sister there?"
The children discussed it, and then the little fat man took the lead, and the group walked towards the village.
They stopped in front of a brick house, and then the little fat man shouted to the inside: "Grandpa, someone is coming from the village, we caught her, you come and have a look."
Catch it? The word "grasp" is used well. She really wanted the little fat man to experience this word for himself, so that he could know how to use it.
"Where is the girl from? Doesn't she look like someone from the island?" At this time, the little fat man's grandfather came out and said to Lin Kexin.
"I'm from outside the island. Can we talk to you sir?"
Lin Kexin chose to be direct. This old man seemed to be a shrewd man. I'm afraid it's not easy to fool him, so he might as well go directly. After she finished speaking, she handed a bag of candies bought on the island to the old man.
The old man looked at it, handed it to the little fat man, and sent them off to play.
"Girl, are you from afar? This little place hasn't had guests from far away for a long time."
The old man glanced at Lin Kexin, then walked out of the courtyard and sat down on a stone bench next to him. He wasn't looking at Lin Kexin, he was looking straight ahead. His eyes were not very bright, but it made people unable to see to the end.
Lin Kexin walked to another stone bench aside and sat down without any courtesy.
She was also quite helpless. Are the people in this village born in the year of the monkey? Not only did she not fool her when she was young, but she also didn't fool her when she was old.
"How did the old man tell that? I learned how to dress up by looking at people on the street for a long time."
Lin Kexin was really curious. The four of them were very confident in their costumes, but they didn't expect that they would be exposed from the beginning. I wonder what happened to those people?
"You are still too young. Go back and observe carefully." The old man's lips curled up and he shook his head in a funny way.
If you don’t want to say it, don’t say it. Let’s move on to the next topic.
"In that case, is there anything you want to tell me?"
The old man continued to shake his head, with an inscrutable look on his face, his mouth tightly closed, not wanting to say another word.
Lin Kexin was not in a hurry and stopped asking questions, sitting quietly on the stone bench. The village was back to what it was before she came, with only the sounds of a few children playing in the distance.
The two of them sat there for two hours, until other young men in the village came back one after another. There were more than thirty people who came back this time, most of them were men, with a few women.
They must have returned from the sea. Judging from their faces, it was obvious that their harvest was not good.
"Dad, you're back!"
"Mom, you are finally back!"
"..."
The children were more excited than the two people sitting there. When they saw the adults coming back, they rushed over.
A leading man, about forty years old, came over holding the little fat man's hand and called the old man daddy.
The old man sighed, then waved his hand and told everyone to go to rest and talk about it later.
Lin Kexin watched quietly as the person came back and then left again. This time it was completely quiet around them, and even the children followed their parents home.
"How many days did they go to sea this time? It seems they didn't gain much." Lin Kexin tilted her head and told the old man what she had just observed.
"What are you insisting on? What is more important than the survival of your family?"
There are no fields on their island, and the people on the island basically make a living by going out to sea to fish. If they can't catch fish, their survival will become difficult.
"Although we are mortals and our lives only last a few decades, we also have our persistence."
"A promise worth a thousand gold!"
The old man gave a bitter smile and then continued.
"Little friend, that's what you all call me, right?"
"Whatever, it's just a title."
"Little friend, you are still a child in the world of cultivation at your age. If you have nothing to do, go back early."
"That's all it is here. At worst, I can go to the underworld, reincarnate, and start over. There's nothing to be afraid of."
The old man seemed to have seen through everything.
"I'll come back in two days and go out to sea with them to have a look."
