Chapter 9 Sea God Sect
Among the common people, the waiter in the restaurant must be the group of people who are the most well-informed. As long as they are willing to spend a little money, there is nothing they can't find out.
So as soon as he got to Jiaolong Island, Lu Qingshan went straight to the port restaurant in Jiaolong Harbor.
The restaurant opened in a place like Jiaolonggang with such a large traffic flow is naturally very prosperous, and the huge three-story restaurant is almost full before the meal time.
Lu Qingshan found an elegant seat by the window on the third floor and sat down. After ordering a sumptuous food and drink, he stopped the shop waiter who greeted him, and handed him a small piece of silver, "Xiao Er, I want to ask you something."
The waiter at the shop didn't take the broken silver at the first moment, but asked very politely: "Young master, what do you want to know?"
"I'm new here, and I want to know about the situation on the island. I wonder if you can tell me a thing or two." Lu Qingshan smiled.
After understanding Lu Qingshan's request, the waiter in the shop took the broken silver with a smile on his face, carefully wiped the broken silver with his cuff, put it in his pocket, and said in a cadenced voice: "My lord, are you asking the right question?" Damn, I've been working in this restaurant for five or six years, and things on the island don't have to be explained clearly, there are still things out of ten..."
Although Jiaolong Island is large, because of its unique terrain, 99% of the population actually gathers in the southern coastal area around Jiaolong Port, and the further north it goes, the less populated it is.
"And it's strange to say that there is an active volcanic crater in the southern part of the island, which erupts from time to time..." the waiter said in a suspenseful tone.
Lu Qingshan waited for the next sentence, "Is there nothing strange about the crater?"
Seeing Lu Qingshan answering the question, the waiter in the shop was very excited and said: "It's strange that what erupted in this crater was not magma, but water mist that filled the sky."
"Oh?"
"What's even more weird is that this crater is dark and gloomy, bottomless, with no limit, and has extremely strong suction, like an abyss that swallows everything.
It is said that even monks who have the ability to fly into the sky and escape from the ground, if they accidentally fall into this crater, they will not have the slightest ability to resist, and they will be sucked into the depths and disappear! "Shop Xiaoer added.
This time Lu Qingshan got a little distracted, the crater that can swallow even monks is indeed worth noting.
After talking about the landforms and customs of the island, the waiter in the shop introduced the power situation on the island to Lu Qingshan.
On Flood Dragon Island, the biggest force is Sea God Sect, which can be said to overwhelm the sky with one hand, controlling the only city on Flood Dragon Island, Flood Dragon City.
As for the Sea God Sect, the reason why they got this name was because they stood behind the "Sea God".
"Sea God?" Lu Qingshan frowned.
Dian Xiaoer explained, "It's the Jiaolong clan. The sea area near our Sea God Islands is inhabited by the Jiaolong clan. Their king calls himself the Sea God, and the Sea God Islands belong to their rule. The Sea God Sect is the sect force supported by the Jiaolong King."
"I just heard a saying that the Sea God Sect betrayed its compatriots to please monsters..."
The waiter in the shop was shocked as if struck by lightning, and did not respond.
The Sea God Sect really has a lot of prestige on Jiaolong Island.
Seeing this scene, Lu Qingshan thought to himself, and at the same time quietly handed over another whole ingot of silver.
Hesitation flashed in the shop clerk's eyes. After struggling for a long time, he still couldn't resist the temptation of the silver. He gritted his teeth, took the silver from Lu Qingshan, and lowered his voice a little: "This Sea God Sect said on the surface It is the sect supported by the Jiaolong clan, but in fact it is the running dog of the Jiaolong clan and the butcher knife of the Jiaolong monster clan!
The Dragon Demon King calls himself the God of the Sea and is cruel by nature. Every other year, he will hold a sacrificial ceremony with ninety-nine pairs of boys and girls as sacrifices.
This matter was handled by the Sea God Sect. This tradition has lasted for hundreds of years. I don't know how many people on the island lost their homes because of this. "
Lu Qingshan's expression froze, "Is there no one to resist?"
"How dare you, let's not mention that the Jiaolong clan can overwhelm the rivers and seas above the sea, just because the Sea God Sect is so powerful,
That's not something ordinary people dare to resist. "Dian Xiaoer just finished speaking, and suddenly remembered something, "However, it seems that in the past few decades, some monks on the island who are not used to the atrocities of the Sea God Sect secretly organized a force to try to overthrow the rule of the Sea God Sect, but they did not I know if I can succeed..."
Lu Qingshan was thoughtful, and asked the last question, "When will this year's sacrificial ceremony be held?"
"My son, it's a coincidence that you are here. Five days later, it will be the day of this year's sacrificial ceremony."
...
After asking about the specific situation on the island, Lu Qingshan gradually fell into deep thought. When he came back to his senses, he wanted to eat some food and wine, but found that the table was already messed up.
It's not entirely due to King Xishu, because this time Lu Qingshan has an extra companion beside him - Zang Xiaojian who proposed to go with him after getting off the boat.
Lu Qingshan looked at the girl in front of him who looked like the King of the Western Mouse, her eyes were shining, and she was immersed in eating on the table, feeling a little helpless.
"In addition to seafood on the boat, it is seafood. This is what people should eat!" Zang Xiaojian felt Lu Qingshan's gaze and explained.
The King of the Western Mouse nodded his little head a few times with deep sympathy, and he felt a little bit of a bosom friend for Zang Xiaojian.
Lu Qingshan pondered for a while, and asked Zang Xiaojian who was busy talking, "Why did you come to Jiaolong Island? Visiting relatives? Visiting friends?"
Zang Xiaojian also has a sense of guidance for him, the little girl seems to want to walk with him for a while, and he can't refuse, but he just needs to ask the little girl's purpose.
Zang Xiaojian shook his head, and said vaguely: "No...well, just wait for me."
She was holding a big meat bun with her chopsticks and stuffing it into her mouth, and she just took a small bite, revealing the steaming oily meat filling inside. The girl obviously didn't plan to give up the meat bun, but she hurriedly answered Lu Qingshan, So he put down his chopsticks, regardless of being hot and gentle, stuffed the remaining meat bun into his mouth with both hands, and stuffed his small face into a steamed bun, with bulging cheeks.
Zang Xiaojian tried hard to swallow the meat bun in his mouth, then quickly picked up the teacup on the side, took a sip of tea, then patted his chest, and regained his breath, "I almost choked... "
Immediately, the girl stared straight at Lu Qingshan with her dark eyes, and said very calmly: "I'm the same as you, I came here to look for the natal sword!"
Lu Qingshan glanced at the king of rats who didn't listen to anything outside the window and concentrated on eating on the table.
Zang Xiaojian immediately understood what Lu Qingshan meant, waved his hand, and clarified for King Xishu: "It wasn't King Xishu who told me.
I was born with an ability, and my perception of swords is extremely strong.
And in your dantian, I didn't feel the existence of the natal sword. "
"Later, I asked King West Mouse, where did you come from, and learned that you and King West Mouse came from Zhenjiang Prefecture, Qingzhou."
"My father told me that seven years ago, he sensed an extremely powerful sword near the South China Sea. I happened to need a natal sword, so my father asked me to come to the South China Sea to have a try."
Cang Xiaojian didn't say the whole thing, but the meaning was very clear: A sword cultivator without a natal sword, traveled thousands of miles across two states, and came to the South China Sea, where a powerful sword had once appeared, all he wanted was this powerful sword What could it be?
This inference is very reasonable.
Hearing his name, King West Mouse raised his head and looked at the two of them in confusion.
Lu Qingshan said angrily: "Eat yours."
He was not surprised by Zang Xiaojian's behavior, just like he had tried to find out the origin of Zang Xiaojian, it was natural for Zang Xiaojian to inquire about him intentionally or unintentionally.
It's just that he didn't expect Zang Xiaojian to have such a special ability, and to judge his purpose so easily.
But the little girl expressed her purpose of seeking the sword very frankly, which undoubtedly made Lu Qingshan's unhappiness impossible to arouse.
A very clever girl!
The extremely strong ability to perceive swords, this talent is very strange, but it seems to be of little use, and even with Lu Qingshan's understanding of Jiutian, it is unheard of.
Zang Xiaojian was so frank, Lu Qingshan didn't hide it, nodded and said: "Yes, I'm here to find the natal sword."
Zang Xiaojian grinned and said: "I think you went straight to the restaurant to inquire about the news as soon as you landed on the island, so you must have no definite direction.
And I, too, maybe we can exchange the information we know, so as to find out where this sword is. "
"As for the ownership of the sword..." Zang Xiaojian looked at Lu Qingshan with his head tilted, and said with a raised tone: "Then each will depend on his ability, what do you think!"
