Master is respected

The West Sea in spring is rainy and humid, and the sea is calm.

In previous years, there were countless fishing boats going out to sea at this time, but this year was uncharacteristically, and occasionally one or two small fishing boats could be seen casting nets in the offshore area.The fishing boats parked on the wharf had accumulated a thin layer of dust, and they were exposed to the sun and rain and left unattended. Some places were exposed to the sun after being soaked in sea water, and the boards turned white and cracked.

Shiyan Village, which is the closest to the West Sea, has closed its doors and closed its doors. The fishing nets outside the house are not repaired, and the surroundings are quiet, as if no one lives there.Occasionally, there would be one or two cries of children, which would stop quickly and then return to dead silence.

The long wind blew across the path in the village, and a piece of rag was rolled up and floated into the distance.

The clatter of horseshoes drifted over with the sound of the wind, and a simple carriage appeared on the village road.The young man driving the horse was wearing a navy blue brocade jacket with narrow sleeves, and a silver gun was placed by his side. His eyebrows and eyes were two points softer than those of the man's, the sword eyebrows were slightly raised, and his eyes were like torches.

The young man noticed the strange situation in the village, frowned, and said to the human in the carriage: "This is the last village, should we go on?"

"Is this the same as the previous villages?" The person in the carriage asked aloud.

The young man choked angrily: "You will know if you come out and see for yourself?"

The people in the carriage fell silent, and the young man pulled the carriage aside and stopped driving the horse, but let it move forward slowly.

After a while, the person in the carriage lifted the curtain and stepped out. He looked more heroic than the driver, dressed in a red round neck robe, wearing a jade crown, his face was like white jade, and he was unparalleled in beauty.Her jade crown was tied with a streamer, which fell to her neck following his movements.

"There's no need to go forward, we'll find someone to live here." Xie Junzhuo held the reins of the carriage and stopped the forward horse.

In front of them is the sea area, which cannot bring them any more useful news.

"There are no people in this poor place, how can we stay?" Shui Miaomiao suppressed her anger, and was even more angry when she heard Xie Junzhuo's words.

A few days ago, Xie Junzhuo and Ye Wushuang diverted to Xihai and sent a letter to Shui Miaomiao asking her to come and meet them.Shui Miaomiao left the mess at home and rushed over without stopping.

When they arrived at the border of the West Sea, Xie Junzhuo said that he wanted to do things cheaply, so he asked Ye Wushuang to follow in the dark, and he and Shui Miaomiao pretended to be rich sons traveling.They intended to inquire about Xihai while walking, but they did not expect that the fishing village here was dead and silent.There were actually people in the village, but they all hid in their houses and refused to come out.

Xie Junzhuo and Shui Miaomiao got out of the car and knocked on the door to ask, but no one was willing to open the door, let alone asking for news, even if they asked for a bowl of water, they couldn't get it.

The atmosphere along the way was extremely depressing, and Shui Miaomiao was affected, and her mood became very bad.She couldn't imagine what happened to the fishermen here, so she was so scared.

Xie Junzhuo jumped out of the carriage, stood on the village road and looked around, and finally chose a family to walk over.

The fishing village is a gathering of ethnic groups, and the families are not far apart. The family Xie Junzhuo chose is not special, but compared to other bare houses, this family has dried fish at the door.

Shui Miaomiao smashed the carriage angrily, and waited for Xie Junzhuo to walk a certain distance before she followed.She hates such a depressing and silent atmosphere, because it always reminds her that when Wang Qing left, the entire sect was silent and extremely bleak.

Xie Junzhuo stopped at the fisherman's house and knocked politely.There was silence in the room, no one answered and no one came to open the door. The people hiding in the room were quite frightened and did not dare to breathe out.

Xie Junzhuo was not discouraged, she knocked on the door again, this time there was still no response, but Xie Junzhuo heard another voice - the cry of a child.

There are people in the house.

Xie Junzhuo cleared his throat, and said: "Xiaosheng is rude, please forgive me. My companion and I have played here, and the dry food we brought has run out. We have closed our doors along the way, and there is no way to replenish food. Please do me a favor and sell it. We have something."

There was no answer in the room, only the unstoppable crying of the child, Xie Junzhuo waited patiently for a while without leaving.The people in the house also found it impossible to deceive themselves that there was no one at home. A woman leaned against the door and said wearily through the door panel: "Our family has no food, you should leave quickly. While it is still early, you can go out."

"Sister-in-law, it doesn't matter if there is no food, can you give us a bowl of water? We are hungry and thirsty now, and we have no strength to go on our way." Xie Junzhuo's voice slowed down, sounding weak and weak.

The woman remained silent for a long time, and the child stopped crying, leaving only choked sobs.

After a while, the woman opened the door a crack, and she handed out a water bag with half a bag of water in it.

"This is the only thing we have in our family. Take it and leave quickly. If you can't get out of the fishing village before dark, find a place to hide and don't wander outside."

The woman kindly told Xie Junzhuo that she hid behind the door, Xie Junzhuo could not see her face, only her hand passing water.Those were a pair of hands that had been soaked in seawater for many years. They were red, swollen and rough, with many calluses, and some places were even cracked.

Xie Junzhuo took the water bag, and when the woman was about to close the door, he forced his hand into the crack of the door.Her strength is deeper than that of the woman, and this grip made the woman unable to move the door.

There was a scream in the room, and the woman was startled by the hand stretched out in front of her, and said in horror: "You...what do you want to do, let go!"

Xie Junzhuo kept the distance from the door open, and apologized: "Sister-in-law, I don't mean any harm, I just want to ask what happened here? Are there any ships going out to sea near here?"

"No, there is nothing. The sea is full of monsters that eat people. Not only do they eat people at sea, they also go ashore to catch people. Since you are not a bad person, go quickly. My house really has nothing. I still have two There are two children to raise, they are still so young, they can't live without me."

The woman was a little overwhelmed and emotional. She also kindly gave Xie Junzhuo some water, not wanting to cause trouble.Even if there are still people alive here, they are no different from walking dead.

Everyone is in fear every day, and no one knows whether they will be the next victim.

Shui Miaomiao had already stepped forward, she sympathized with the woman's experience, and was heartbroken by the woman's words, so she said quickly: "You are forced to this point by monsters, don't Taoists care?"

"They come every three days, and every time they come, they need seven virgins..." When the woman said this, her voice stopped abruptly, and a moment later she broke down and burst into tears: "Every time they come, they only want to arrest people." , but it’s useless at all, if we don’t give them the children, they will arrest the whole family and send them to the sea to sacrifice to the sea monsters. Today is the third day, and they will come as soon as it gets dark.”

The Daomen near the fishing village is useless at all. They took away many boys and girls, but the problem at sea has not been solved at all. The life of the fishermen is getting more and more difficult, and they can only be trapped in the house and wait to die.

When the woman thought that such atrocities would happen to her children sooner or later, she couldn't help feeling sad, and a deep sense of despair rose from the bottom of her heart.

Shui Miaomiao was furious, she clenched the silver gun tightly in her hand, and cursed: "These bastards don't go to trouble the sea monster, but come to oppress the common people. What do they want so many virgins for?"

It is nonsense to use boys and girls for sea sacrifices. As a disciple of Taoism, how can you get along with demons?

Xie Junzhuo was so upset by Shui Miaomiao's noise, and the woman's crying made people sad, she let go of her hand to close the door for the woman, and pulled Shui Miaomiao to turn around and leave.

"Why did you leave suddenly? Don't you care?" Shui Miaomiao staggered, Xie Junzhuo wanted to ask the woman forcefully just now, but now he walked away.

Xie Junzhuo didn't turn his head back and said: "Of course we have to take care of this matter. Didn't you hear what my sister-in-law said? The Taoist disciples will come tonight. It's an eyesore for us two living beings standing here, why don't we find a place to avoid it?"

"Do you care or not?" Shui Miaomiao was confused by Xie Junzhuo, raised his gun and said, "I won't avoid it, I'll wait for them here. If they dare to come, I won't be the first to spare them. "

"I know you are powerful. You are not afraid of anything. You can beat ten of them. But these fishermen don't know. You rushed out and beat the disciples of the Taoist sect. What happened after that?" Xie Junzhuo dragged Shui Miaomiao back to the carriage and waved his hands. He raised his whip and drove the carriage to the sea.

Holding the silver gun, Shui Miaomiao straightened her back and said, "I'll go and clean up the sea monsters later, and give these people peace. Isn't it just fighting? I've never been afraid."

Xie Junzhuo helped her forehead, she really wanted to remind Shui Miaomiao that she is not a monk representing justice now, but a scum of the Taoist sect who followed the Demon Lord and fell down.

"Things are not that simple. Both the Daomen and the Kraken are extremely abnormal. We need to plan." Xie Junzhuo did not come to the West Sea to fight. In case Shui Miaomiao rushed out, the Daomen would bite back and blame them , They are justified and can't tell.

Xie Junzhuo in the sea area has no way to contact him for the time being, but Taoist disciples can arrest one or two for interrogation.

Shui Miaomiao can fight, but not brains.As soon as she heard what Xie Junzhuo said about the plan, she got dizzy, immediately shook her head like a rattle, fell down on the side, and said: "Okay, okay, whatever you say, I will hit whoever you ask me to hit."

Xie Junzhuo shrugged, found a spacious fishing boat in the sea, and drove the carriage to it.The fishermen are trapped at home, the endless coastline stretches, the gloomy dark clouds hang down, and there is a sense of tension that the storm is about to come.

Shui Miaomiao turned around on the boat, rubbing the ashes all over her body, and finally swept out a futon in disgust, and sat down cross-legged.

Xie Junzhuo also entered the cabin, and she set up a shielding formation at the door to hide her and Shui Miaomiao's aura, even if there were sea monsters and Taoist disciples passing by, they would not be aware of their existence.

Time passed little by little, and dusk gradually fell.

Shui Miaomiao takes good care of her body and mind to ensure that she is in peak state and can kill with one blow.

Xie Junzhuo leaned against the cabin and waited quietly for movement on the coast.

I don't know how long it has passed, a cry pierced the silence of the night.That voice sounded somewhat familiar, it was the woman Xie Junzhuo and the others had only seen during the day.

Shui Miaomiao opened her eyes suddenly, and without waiting for Xie Junzhuo's instructions, she took up her silver gun and ran out, leaving an afterimage in the dark night.

Xie Junzhuo sighed helplessly and raised his heels.She seemed to be strolling in a leisurely manner, but after one step, she was already far away.

The woman's home was lit with a bean-sized oil lamp, and the cries of the child were intertwined with the woman's heart-piercing cries, occasionally mixed with men's vicious threats.A few tall figures stood at the door, and the big lamps were shaken by the wind, making their shadows look like demons with teeth and claws.

Shui Miaomiao rushed forward, Xie Junzhuo walked behind, only heard a few ping-pong-pong sounds, the situation of the battle was one-sided.In order not to cause too much trouble, Xie Junzhuo also threw a shielding formation in a good mood to control all sounds within a limited range.

Shui Miaomiao ended the fight, and Xie Junzhuo could hear her beating those people hard.

She walked over unhurriedly. As soon as she reached the door, someone in the room suddenly shouted: "My sister is Jiang Yuehan. If you dare to touch me, she will definitely not let you go."
