Chapter 112 Looking for Trouble? No, Making Friends
"Who is it? Looking for trouble with me?"
Lu Tao was a little curious when he heard this.
But he already had a guess in his mind. After all, he had dug a pit for people to jump into not long ago. If nothing unexpected happened, it should be those people.
"Over there, that group of people seemed very angry."
Someone immediately pointed to the side of the giant ship.
Hearing this, everyone looked over curiously, and sure enough, they saw a group of people facing Lu Tao's ship with a sullen face.
With anger on their faces.
"People from the Divine Fire Sect and the Beast Taming Sect."
Immediately, someone said: "It turned out to be them. They went to find those people from the Shadowless Palace and the Soul Palace before."
As soon as this was said, many people showed a look of surprise.
Lu Tao was not surprised, and looked at the group with a smile.
"Lu Tao, can we get on the boat?"
At this time, someone in the group shouted to Lu Tao, and actually wanted to get on the boat.
As if the object of their anger before was not Lu Tao.
Lu Tao smiled and said: "Yes, but everyone who gets on the boat must have a lower-grade local-level skill."
As soon as this was said.
Laughter rang out on the deck.
When they boarded the ship earlier, they only paid a few Yuanshi, but now Lu Tao directly asked for the skills.
"... Really evil."
The group of people were speechless and shouted: "Lu Tao, you are too cruel, we take the blame for you, but you are so greedy?"
"Eh? What blame? I don't understand what you are talking about." Lu Tao looked puzzled.
A disciple of the Divine Fire Sect said angrily: "You robbed the people of the Shadowless Palace and the Soul Palace and let them die in the mouths of ferocious beasts. Am I right?"
"Brother, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. I, Lu Tao, am not the kind of person who robs people's things casually. Don't accuse me if you don't have evidence."
Lu Tao shook his head aggrievedly and said: "If you don't believe it, you can ask everyone here, is it necessary for Lu to rob things?"
A large group of people who don't know the truth shook their heads directly.
"I really don't have any."
"How can robbing make money as much as fishing?"
"We rushed to give Brother Lu materials and Yuanshi, but he didn't want them. How could he care about that little resource?"
...
"You heard it too. It's so easy for me to make money. How could I be stupid enough to rob?"
Lu Tao shrugged and spread his hands to the disciples of the Divine Fire Sect, saying, "Brother, forget it this time. I won't bother with you. Don't wrongly accuse me next time without evidence."
The disciples of the Divine Fire Sect and the Beast Taming Sect were so angry when they heard this.
But they really didn't have any evidence.
"By the way, are you still getting on the boat?" Lu Tao said with a smile.
The disciples of the Divine Fire Sect, the Beast Taming Sect, the Xunlong Pavilion, etc., looked at the smile on Lu Tao's face, gnashed their teeth, and wanted to say they wouldn't get on the boat.
But when they saw that they could exchange their skills for the Soul Refining Fish, they couldn't refuse.
Especially when they saw that the disciples of those ordinary forces could go to the Divine Platform so leisurely, but they had to cross the sea in pain, making people laugh, they were even more unhappy.
Finally, the disciple of the Divine Fire Sect said indifferently: "Go."
"Hand in the skills first, then get on the boat."
Lu Tao looked at the ten people with a smile.
"...Here."
A ring was thrown up and caught by Lu Tao. After confirming that it was correct, he let the ten people get on the boat.
After getting on the boat.
The disciples of the Divine Fire Sect, the Beast Taming Sect and others looked at the pile of soul-refining fish on the deck, and like everyone else, they couldn't help but show envy.
But they had to admit.
Lu Tao and his friends could catch soul-refining fish so easily, and there was really no need to rob others.
But the premise is that others don't take the initiative to rob Lu Tao.
So, they became active.
The disciple of the Divine Fire Sect coughed softly and said: "Brother Lu, can we talk about a deal? I want to exchange more soul-refining fish."
"Sure, let's talk in detail."
Lu Tao agreed very readily and took the ten people into a separate room together.
As soon as the formation was set up, the burly, dark-skinned disciple of the Divine Fire Sect complained: "Brother Lu, you are too cruel. You knew someone would take the blame for you, so you should at least leave something. As a result, we wasted several hours and didn't even pick up a hair. You are too stingy."
"That's what I said. I didn't ask you to go. You are just too greedy."
Since there were no outsiders, Lu Tao didn't have to pretend anymore.
Especially.
He found that although this group of people complained and were angry, they didn't have any resentment, which made him look up to them. "What are your names?"
"My name is Han Yi." The dark-skinned disciple of the Divine Fire Sect clasped his fists.
"My name is Gao Yang..."
"My name is..."
The ten people each reported their names.
After getting to know each other, Han Yi immediately coughed and said in a negotiating tone: "Brother Lu, look, there are ten of us. This time we are definitely sharing the blame for you, and we are too lazy to explain.
But.
You know the facts.
We didn't get anything, but we are still taking the blame. Can you live with your conscience?
Can you at least... show some appreciation?"
Lu Tao smiled but said nothing.
How could he not know Han Yi's plan? He just wanted a few soul-refining fish.
To be honest, it's okay to give them a few, but they can't be given away for free.
At this time.
Gao Yang continued: "That's right, we don't need too many, just ten soul-refining fish each, and we will take the blame for you."
"..."
Lu Tao was speechless.
Ten per person, they really dared to ask.
Ten soul-refining fish are equivalent to a local-level top-grade technique, and ten people are ten copies, so he couldn't bear to give it up.
Seeing that Lu Tao was not persuaded.
A disciple of the Beast Taming Sect named Tang Xing said again: "Brother Lu, we don't want your soul-refining fish for nothing. So, how about we stand on the same front with you on this matter? After leaving the secret realm, if the Shadowless Palace and others cause trouble for you, I will let my ancestor come forward to solve it."
Han Yi, Gao Yang and others all nodded in agreement.
Obviously, this group of people had already discussed it.
Just by taking the blame, they can get ten soul-refining fish for free. They are not stupid, they must be willing.
Ten soul-refining fish of the innate perfection level are enough to increase their spiritual consciousness several times, which is stronger than some masters. Of course, they are willing to do this deal.
Even if the truth of the matter is told to the elders and ancestors of the sect, they will not blame them at all.
They will even agree with their approach.
Lu Tao was moved.
Indeed, with these martial gods taking the blame, it can even be said that they take on the troubles of the Shadowless Palace, Soul Palace and other forces for him, so he is naturally more relieved.
After all.
Although he was valued by the Daqian royal family, this value would be reduced by one point.
If this matter could make friends with the martial god forces such as the Divine Fire Sect, the Dragon Seeking Pavilion, and the Beast Taming Sect, Lu Ran would naturally be willing.
However.
He was not assured of a verbal agreement.
Lu Tao smiled and said, "It sounds good, but how can I know if you will regret it later?"
"It's so simple, Brother Lu can just wait for our ancestor to take over the trouble, and then hand over the soul-refining fish to us."
Han Yi didn't care at all and said, "I think Brother Lu won't be reluctant to give it up at that time, right?"
"It's just a hundred soul-refining fish, I won't be reluctant to give it up."
These words made Han Yi and others' faces twitch.
A hundred?
This is really too pretentious, but they couldn't refute it.
Who made fishing so easy for Lu Tao and others? There are hundreds of them on the deck alone.
Not to mention the ones traded to others.
Lu Tao smiled and said, "Then let's make it like this. Afterwards, I will definitely give each of you ten soul-refining fish."
"Okay, then let's exchange our spiritual marks. You can communicate at any time if you have anything to say."
Han Yi and others took out the communication beads and exchanged spiritual marks with Lu Tao.
Ten soul-refining fish may not seem like much, but they are only worth a local-level top-grade technique.
For such a small amount of soul-refining fish, the ancestors of the sect came forward and let Lu Tao take advantage of the situation. It seems that the Divine Fire Sect, the Beast Taming Sect and other sects are at a disadvantage.
In fact, it is not the case.
This group of people is very smart.
They have long seen that Lu Tao is extraordinary.
Whether Lu Tao has made contributions to Daqian before, or now he uses his unique fishing gear to catch soul-refining fish, or even He Yuanshuang and Wu Ming are obviously preparing to impact the marrow refining realm...
All of this shows Lu Tao's potential, or the potential of the people around him.
They are willing to make friends with such a genius.
It's not worth mentioning to borrow a little from the sect.
After leaving messages to each other.
Han Yi and his ten people began to trade soul-refining fish with Lu Tao using their skills.
During the transaction, Tang Xing from the Beast Taming Sect suddenly asked: "Brother Lu, can the skills of monster beasts be exchanged for soul-refining fish?"
"Yes, all skills can be exchanged." Lu Tao nodded and smiled.
However.
The skills of monster beasts can only be exchanged for the big black dog. He should not be able to practice them. I just don't know if I can refer to them.
"It just so happens that I have a few earth-level skills for monster beasts to practice."
Tang Xing was overjoyed.
These skills are not from their Beast Taming Sect, but he found them by chance.
After all, monster beast skills cannot be practiced by humans and are almost useless to others. He didn't pay much to buy them from others.
Unexpectedly, he could exchange them for soul-refining fish now, which is a huge profit.
In a moment, the ten people completed the transaction and were all very satisfied.
At this time,
Han Yi suddenly asked tentatively: "Brother Lu, are you selling your fishing gear?"
"Brother Han, do you think you have anything that can be exchanged for my fishing gear?" Lu Tao asked with a smile.
Han Yi paused when he heard this, and said embarrassedly: "Heaven-level skills?"
Although he knew.
Even if he sold the fishing gear that could catch the soul-refining fish so easily, he couldn't buy a pair.
But he couldn't help asking one more question.
Lu Tao shook his head and said: "The heaven-level skills are not good either. The skills can only be exchanged for soul-refining fish."
"That's a pity."
Han Yi's face was full of regret.
If he could exchange a pair of fishing gear, he would be willing to exchange it even for the heaven-level skills passed down to him by the Divine Fire Sect.
But it is obvious that the heaven-level skills are not worth the price.
This made Han Yi and others a little depressed.
It is extremely precious in the outside world. Many forces try every means to obtain a copy of the heaven-level skills. They took the initiative to exchange it with Lu Tao, but Lu Tao was unwilling.
Can only say.
Lu Tao's fishing gear is too valuable in the Divine Platform Secret Realm, far beyond the reach of Heaven-level techniques.
"Brother Lu, let's go for a walk on the boat."
After the transaction, the ten people did not stay for long, said goodbye and left, and strolled on the deck.
At this time.
On the deck was not only the trading platform established by He Yuanshuang, but other people also took out fishing gear, fishing nets, harpoons, etc., and were busy by the boat, trying to catch soul-refining fish.
However, the harvest was very small.
Some others were setting up stalls, mainly alchemy monks, who used soul-refining fish to make pills for others and received rewards.
There were also people selling other things...
The boat had become a temporary market.
The whole boat was bustling.
After Han Yi and the others left, Lu Tao went into seclusion again.
He was not far from the innate perfection.
Time passed.
One day later, the slowly moving giant ship finally arrived at the altar...
