Sunset Mountain Village is located in the westernmost part of the Qin Empire, adjacent to the endless sea.
It is absolutely correct to say that you rely on mountains to eat mountains, and you rely on water to eat water. Since Sunset Mountain Village is adjacent to the endless sea, the villagers there will certainly not waste the endless resources in the sea.
Of course, basically all the villagers in Sunset Mountain Village make a living by fishing. Of course, fishing is not without danger at all.
If you are not lucky, you may encounter rough waves when you go to sea. Of course, you are more likely to encounter ferocious sea monsters. This endless sea is boundless and such a wide sea area. Of course, there will also be some ferocious sea monsters.
, and there are many people with advanced cultivation among them.
Whether it is a natural disaster or an animal disaster, it is far beyond what these ordinary fishermen can withstand. When encountering these two situations, the only thing they can do is to resign themselves to their fate. I hope that their ancestors will be virtuous and allow themselves to escape by chance.
Tribulation.
Natural disasters, over time, the villagers of Sunset Mountain Village can also find some of these patterns. Before every time they go to sea, the villagers will roughly predict whether these disasters will happen. The only unpredictable thing is animal disasters, but fortunately,
These monsters seem to have their own activity area. As long as they do not step into their territory, they will rarely be attacked by them. Most of their activity areas are in the deep sea. The shallow sea area around Sunset Mountain Village.
These monsters generally rarely set foot.
Since they rely on the sea for food, it goes without saying that the villagers of Sunset Mountain Village also believe in the God of the Sea. Among the entire mountain villages, the most majestic, luxurious and widest area is undoubtedly the Temple of the Sea. The residents of Sunset Mountain Village every
Before going to sea for the first time, they would come to the Tanah Lot Temple to pray, hoping that their harvest would be more abundant and that they would not encounter natural disasters or beasts.
Regardless of whether the so-called Poseidon knew about their prayers, or whether their prayers had any effect, at least after doing so, they would feel a little more at ease.
Chen Xiaopao is an ordinary villager in Sunset Mountain Village. Although he is not very old, he is the only person in the entire Sunset Mountain Village who has seen the big world because he used to be a small merchant. Every time the villagers of Sunset Mountain Village return from sea,
After Chen Xiaopao acquired them, he sold them to Xiliang County, the county closest to Sunset Mountain City.
Xiliang County is at least thousands of miles away from Sunset Mountain City, and it takes nearly a month to go back and forth. Usually, the sea fish and other things caught by the villagers of Sunset Mountain Village are only sold to people hundreds of miles away.
A market, where to exchange for some daily necessities and the like, why not go to Xiliang County.
Thousands of miles away, within a month, it was impossible for Chen Xiaopao to sell sea fish, so when he first went to Xiliang County, he brought some seemingly useless things caught by the villagers.
Unexpectedly, these things that look colorful but cannot be used as food have become very popular in Xiliang County.
What shocked Chen Xiaopao the most was that the things he brought were actually very popular among the dignitaries in Xiliang County. A small piece of coral could be exchanged for a large truckload of food.
As he ran more often, Chen Xiaopao's vision gradually broadened. He even saw several legendary immortals with great supernatural powers in Xiliang County.
If there are interests, there will definitely be competition. The greater the interests, the more intense the competition. But legitimate competition is not scary, only unscrupulous competition.
Just when Chen Xiaopao was about to show off his grand ambitions and do something big, disaster struck. A group of vicious people found him and forced him to tell the source of the goods. Of course Chen Xiaopao refused, and was finally killed by that person.
After the gang broke one leg, they had no choice but to take the gang to Sunset Mountain Village.
The arrival of this group of people is undoubtedly a nightmare for the entire Sunset Mountain Village. They are forced to buy all kinds of precious things they capture at extremely low prices. Even the delicious sea fish they capture must be sold to them.
That group of people turned over more than half.
"Hey! There isn't much food left again! Looks like we have to go to sea again, these guys are so mean!" Chen Xiaopao dragged his broken leg and cursed fiercely.
With a broken leg, Chen Xiaopao's harvest every time he went to sea was much less than that of ordinary fishermen. What's more, those people seemed to dislike him. Every time he returned from sea, he only got what he got from his hard work.
A little later.
Dragging his broken leg and carrying his broken fishing net, Chen Xiaopao staggered step by step towards the pier of Sunset Mountain Village.
"Look, that damn cripple is going to sea again!"
"Damn it, this cripple has a broken leg, but he comes back safely every time he goes to sea!" On the pier, a few tough-looking men with fierce looks were chatting, and they saw a man dragging a broken leg and carrying a broken net.
Chen Xiaopao sneered one by one.
"When I gain strength, I will definitely break your legs, and both of them!" Chen Xiaopao cursed in his heart. Chen Xiaopao will never forget these people, because they were the ones who robbed them.
His own cargo broke one of his legs.
Although he was cursing in his heart, Chen Xiaopao did not dare to show any dissatisfaction, because if those people discovered his dissatisfaction, he would definitely be beaten severely.
The entire Sunset Mountain Village villagers have long been numb to the tyranny of this gang. Although they tried to gather together to resist at the beginning, the result was that the entire Sunset Mountain Village lost more than ten young and strong people.
The men were put into sacks one by one, tied to big rocks and sunk into the sea before their eyes.
Without saying a word, Chen Xiaopao slowly walked onto the pier with faltering steps, climbed onto his broken fishing boat, and sailed out to the sea.
…………
"I really can't live this day!" Chen Xiaopao muttered softly. He had been wandering in the shallow sea area for a long time. Chen Xiaopao didn't find any trace of the fish, although he also wandered around randomly.
Several nets were used, but they only caught a few scattered small sea fish, not even enough to plug the hole in the wall.
"In this shallow sea area, the villagers come here several times a day. It is getting harder and harder to find fish schools! If you want to get a big harvest, you have to go to the deep sea, but..." Chen Xiaopao hesitated.
"If you go to sea once and gain nothing, those bastards will definitely laugh at you again, and I'm afraid you won't be able to escape a severe beating!" Thinking of the beatings he received a few days ago, Chen Xiaopao couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Air conditioning.
"Just go in a little deeper, cast a few nets and come back immediately. There should be no danger! Fight!" Chen Xiaopao gritted his teeth and slowly walked towards the deep sea while shaking the oar.
As soon as he entered the deep sea area, Chen Xiaopao immediately discovered traces of the fish school. He couldn't help but feel happy. He gently rocked the broken boat and slowly approached the fish school.
The net was cast, and it was heavy. Chen Xiaopao dragged the fishing net up with all his hands and feet. He couldn't help but feel happy. He had been out to sea so many times, and he had never harvested such a big net with one cast.
"Just this one net is equivalent to what I harvested in one day in the shallow sea! If I make a few more nets, even if I have to hand over more than half to those idiots, I won't have to go to sea for at least ten days and a half!" Because of what I just did
The net alarmed the fish school, which was moving forward quickly. Chen Xiaopao did not hesitate, grabbed the oar and chased after the fish school.
"Hoo...ho..."
At this moment, there was a sudden roar, and a whirlpool with a radius of several feet suddenly appeared in the sea area where the fish school was located. The strong suction of the vortex actually pulled the entire fish school into it, and then a picture appeared.
A mouth even bigger than Chen Xiaopao's fishing boat suddenly appeared.
The sea roared and the waves were so strong that Chen Xiaopao's fishing boat was thrown directly to the top of the waves.
"Oh my god! Monster!" Chen Xiaopao finally saw clearly the giant beast under the big mouth, because the entire body of the giant beast had stepped out of the sea at this time. The giant beast was hundreds of feet long and was wrapped in
It has crimson scales on its body, and its dorsal fin has spikes that glow with cold light standing upside down. It looks so ferocious and terrifying.
"You little human, you actually ran wild on my territory!" The giant beast roared, swung around, and rushed towards Chen Xiaopao.
"If I had known it, I would rather be beaten up by those people than come here!" Chen Xiaopao wailed and closed his eyes in despair. It's not that he didn't want to resist, but that he simply didn't have the strength to resist.
"Brother! Where is this place? Can you tell me?" A friendly voice suddenly sounded in Chen Xiaopao's ears.
"Hey! I'm not dead yet!" Chen Xiaopao was startled and opened his eyes in surprise. He saw an elegant young man in white standing on top of his broken ship. At this moment, the young man was smiling.
Looking at him, his smile looked so kind in Chen Xiaopao's eyes at this moment.
Isn't that monster jumping towards him? At this moment, where is the monster? Chen Xiaoer couldn't help but turn around and look in the direction where the monster was jumping.
At this moment, the monster is still there, but on the sea surface in front of the monster, there is a sturdy man in green shirt. The man just stands on the sea, holding the giant beast's head with one hand,
Although the giant beast struggled desperately, the man's hand remained as steady as a mountain.
"Master, what should I do with this little demon!" The man turned around and grinned softly. Although the man's smile was not pretty and could even be said to be a bit scary, in Chen Xiaopao's eyes at this moment, he felt...
That man's smile is the most friendly smile in the world.
The young man in white smiled softly, waved his hand, and said: "Pan Wu, you still need to ask me about this little thing. I'm just a little demon in the first pill stage. There are no useful materials to collect from me. You can do whatever you want with it."
Deal with it!”
Pan Wu chuckled and shook his hand slightly. The giant beast twitched for a while, and then there was no movement at all. It was obvious that it had lost its breath.
"Gods! They are actually the legendary gods!" Seeing this scene, Chen Xiaopao was stunned and stood on the spot.
