Chapter 404 Fragments of Wu Kingdom
Xu Dao's eyes showed deep thought, and he immediately began to think about it.

Xiaoyingnv stood in the black boat, her face was a little red, she said in a low voice: "I was in the shop with my mother today, I acted abruptly towards the Taoist priest, I hope the Taoist priest will forgive me."

"I am dissatisfied with the Taoist chief. It is precisely because of the emergence of new islands that my mother is so eager to form an alliance with the Taoist chief."

The words continued from her mouth, allowing Xu Dao to have a clearer understanding of the matter.

He touched his cheek, and murmured in his heart: "So, I thought it was my own charm that attracted this mother and daughter."

However, he glanced at Xiao Yu Nu's blushing appearance, vaguely discerned the other party's thoughts at this time, and felt confident again in his heart.

Shark girl lowered her head and crossed her fingers. She suddenly took a string of beads from around her neck and held them in both hands: "The Taoist priest came to Shark Island for the first time, and my younger sister has not given the Taoist priest a gift yet. There are seven pearls in this necklace. The Lingzhu is exactly what was condensed by picking pearls under the moon just now."

"Although it's not as good as other sisters', let alone what my mother condensed, but it can also increase your cultivation and help the Taoist priest recover his mana. I hope the Taoist priest will not be disgusted and just accept it."

She uttered a few words, her breath was a little short, and she almost bit her tongue.

Xu Dao looked at Xiao Yunu's appearance, and suddenly burst into a smile.

According to the memories of Taoists surnamed Lai and the records in various books, although the shark girls are beautiful, they are in the environment of the shark island and have such a natural nature. They are born prostitutes or even bitches. goods.

There was playfulness in his eyes: "I don't know if the guy is really so naive, or his acting skills are so superb that he can even deceive me."

But no matter what, Xu Dao would not take her to his side. After all, the bloody appearance of this woman picking pearls under the moon just now left a deep impression on him.

Playing around on the spot, Xu Dao made a slap in the face and said: "Thank you, fellow Taoist, then the poor Taoist will be disrespectful."

The shark girl shyly said, "The Taoist priest is polite."

Xu Daofu asked: "I don't know if you have a name?"

Seeing Xu Dao asking for her name, Xiao Yunv quickly spit out: "The Taoist priest can call me Simei, my mother's surname is Yin, and my younger sister follows her mother's surname."

"Yin Simei." Xu Dao chewed, and said with a smile: "Are there still one, two, and three eyebrows on top of Simei?"

Yin Simi felt a little embarrassed: "Yes, but in the names of the eldest sister, the second sister and the third sister, there are three other words for 'eyebrow'."

Xu Dao chuckled in his heart: "Then Daoist Yin chose his name quite casually."

He casually asked the other party's mother's name, and his face was even more strange. It turned out that the shark girl who had established the foundation and condensed evil spirit was named "Yin Dang", and she had a powerful silver bell magic weapon in her hand.

Suppressing his thoughts, Xu Dao continued to talk to Xiao Yunv, and made sure that he would think about it carefully, and no matter whether he answered or not, he would give an accurate answer within three days.

Yin Simei leaned back and said: "Then Simei won't bother the Taoist priest to rest. Recently, Simei is on duty nearby. If there is any need on the Taoist priest's boat, you can find Simei instead of those rough guys."

After the ceremony, she raised her head and looked at Xu Dao delicately, secretly delighted in her heart: "Xu Daoist is really different from ordinary foundation-building Taoist priests, he is so talkative and polite."

If it wasn't for Xu Dao's intention to see off the guests, she really wanted to live on the boat.

Although Yin Simi was reluctant to give up, she still jumped into the sea, "turning back three times at a step", and her head popped up on the sea from time to time until it disappeared from Xu Dao's sight.

On the black ship.

Xu Dao played with the seven spirit beads left by the other party, felt the spiritual power in them, and found that the teardrops of the shark girl were roughly the same as those in the blood money, but after rubbing and swallowing by the shark girl, their texture was really comparable to that of blood money. It is more refined and has the spirit of moonlight.

This one pill of Lingzhu should be equivalent to about ten blood coins, and seven pills are equivalent to seventy talisman coins.

Although the wealth in the West Sea is "richer" than that of Wu, the average monthly salary of Taoists in the later stage of Qi refining is only one hundred yuan.

Seventy coins was not enough for Yin Simiu, even if the other party got it by picking pearls by himself, there was only one chance to pick pearls every month, if the monthly pearls were not enough, he would have to pay for it out of his own pocket.

I have read a lot of Xu Dao, and I have a lot of understanding of the prices in the West Sea.

If he joins Yuren Island, according to his mid-stage foundation establishment, his monthly salary can reach about [-] yuan.In addition, in the early stage of foundation establishment, it is generally [-] yuan, and in the later stage of foundation establishment, it is [-] yuan.

Of course, the specific salary will be discussed according to the actual situation, and this salary is just an ordinary support. If there are other important errands, such as Yuren Island inviting Xu Dao to go to open up wasteland and fight for the island, then the benefits need to be shared with Xu Dao.

Especially for the Foundation Establishment Realm, the Taoist class is already the ruling class in the West Sea. As long as there is no big boss at the Jindan level to suppress them, they are usually wooed by major forces, and they have to come up with real benefits.

Xu Dao thought about it, and couldn't help but frown deeply.It is said that behind every piece of blood money is a life.

The monthly salary of Taoist priests who established the foundation is calculated in thousands of dollars, and the rumored salary of Taoist masters of Jindan is even tens of thousands of dollars. With such a monthly fee, there are really piles of corpses and seas of blood.

Sighing a few times, Xu Dao did not have the idea of ​​rejecting Yuren Island, but became more certain in his heart.

Just as he thought in Xiao Huangtian, no matter whether he spends blood money or not, the amount of blood money in the entire West Sea will not decrease by half.

Refining blood money is not a business, even if there is no transaction, there will be killing.As long as there is one more blood money in the world, the Taoists of Xihai will spare no effort to squeeze it, even including themselves.

Blood money is the only common standard besides mana in the West Sea.

And unlike Wu Guozhong, Xihai not only has a larger territory and more Taoists, but also surpasses the closed Wu State in various ways, especially the development of a certain skill, so that those with plenty of blood and money can often easily achieve cross-level, or even Enemy across borders.

This is difficult to achieve in Wu Guozhong.

Xu Dao thought about it, squinted his eyes and suppressed these distracting thoughts, and paid attention to the current problem again.

He thought over and over again, and finally made a decision: "Although there is a lot of content in the book, if you want to truly understand the entire West Sea, you must join it. Right now, Yuren Island is short of manpower, and the flow of people on this island is quite large. It is a good choice for me to integrate into Xihai."

In addition, Xu Dao glanced at those weird boatmen and the vegetables in the cabin that had not been released so far.

Not only did he decide to join Yuren Island as a guest minister, but he was also ready to take on the task of pioneering the wasteland.If possible, Xu Dao intends to obtain a small island, or obtain a territory on a new island to house the mortals on board.

Otherwise, these mortals on board will either become a piece of red blood money, or become his burden.

Xu Dao didn't want to choose between the two.He planned to occupy a territory first, and practice while merging into the West Sea.

As for what happened later, we'll talk about it later, anyway, now he doesn't need to go around to "seek immortals and Taoism", and it's impossible to directly carry the banner and revive Huang Tian.

"Take your time, take your time."

After making the decision and planning, Xu Dao felt relieved in an instant, and his face returned to his previous comfortable appearance. He stretched himself, and then walked into the cabin.

Although the dozens of newly acquired Xihai books have already been read, there are still many worth reading carefully.In particular, some of them are related to spells and realms, which are worth pondering for a long time.

As for responding to the Yuren Island issue, this matter should not be rushed for a while, and it is best to delay it for two or three days, lest the other party haggle over the treatment later.

the next three days.

Xu Dao has been flipping through books in his room, staying at home.

During the three days, Xiao Yunv came here many times, but she was always shut down.But this not only did not wipe out her small thoughts, but made her anxious, "Isn't the Taoist priest planning to leave in three days?"

Although she was anxious, Xu Dao was a Taoist priest who established the foundation, and she was still in the middle stage like her mother. Yin Simi never dared to offend her. She only dared to ask questions about arranging food and drinking water, and did her best to show her eagerness.

This made Wu Bixi and Liang Xia a little confused at first.It wasn't until later that the two of them understood: "This alien wants to get into the Taoist priest's bed!"

When they met, Wu Bixi almost started yelling, but Liang Xia had already found out the origin of Xiaoyingnv and stopped her in time.

When the little shark girl left, Liang Xia comforted Wu Bixi: "This girl is a guest of the Taoist priest after all, and her mother is a Taoist priest of Ningsha! Besides, if there is no such beast, there will be no food and fresh water supplies for the mortals on board. You and I are bothered."

Even so, Wu Bixi's face was still full of indignation, she gritted her teeth and said: "A rotten whore on a romantic island, who is not even a human being, is worthy of being friends with the Taoist priest?"

Hearing this, Liang Xia was silent. He lowered his head and thought for a while, then suddenly took out a pill of Lingzhu from his sleeve, and said with a smile: "I won't talk about that. This pearl was given to you and me by the shark girl. After some inquiring, this thing has the effect of breaking through the realm. You and I have already broken through to the late stage of Qi refining, so it is just right to use it, and it can speed up the speed."

When Wu Bixi saw the Lingzhu, hesitation appeared on her face, and she said, "It's just a pill. Brother Liang, your Taoism is full, but little sister is still a year and a half away. Since this thing is helpful to break through the realm, you It’s the right thing to use by one person.”

The two refused for a long time, but the bead finally returned to Liang Xia's hands. He held the bead and waved his hands towards Wu Bi.

Seeing that Liang Xia accepted it, Wu Bixi thought for a while, and then whispered: "If a pill of beads is not enough, I can ask the Taoist priest again. Even if the Taoist priest is annoyed, he probably won't be as knowledgeable as me."

Listening to the other party's words, Liang Xia arched her hands and fell silent.After he paused for a few breaths, he raised his face, smiled lightly and shook his head.

Wu Bixi looked at the other party, first frowned, then relaxed, squeezed her hair and said with a smile: "Then Brother Liang has to work harder."

Liang Xia just replied: "Yes."

The two communicated in low voices for a long time, and then one sat cross-legged on the deck, and the other was protecting the dharma around.

Liang Xia held the Lingzhu in her hand, her face was calm and calm, without any trace of gloom.The latter, Wu Bixi, is a dedicated caregiver, looking at each other from time to time with a prayer on his face.

Silkies of spiritual light came in and out of Liangxia's nose, and mana steamed up from the top of his head, illuminating two and a half feet, and the light was eager to try, looking like it was about to break through the limit at any time.

In the upper cabin of the black ship.

Xu Dao held the book in his hand, and suddenly withdrew his eyes from between the lines.He pondered for a while, but finally shook his head slightly, then continued to lower his head, trying to figure out the contents of the book.

at last.

On the third day, Xiao Yu Nu came again, and she found that the situation on the black boat had changed, and she couldn't adapt to it.

The male Taoist who was only in the middle stage of Qi refining yesterday had actually broken through and entered the late stage of Qi refining, but his breath was still not stable.On the deck, there were even a group of heads squatting in darkness. It should be that the vegetables in the boat were released.

As soon as they met, Liang Xia said to Xiao Yunv: "The Taoist priest is not going to sell these vegetable people, but intends to keep them for human breeding and use them for reproduction. I also ask Fellow Daoist Yin to take care of them more, lest there will be unsightly eyes."

Shark Girl Yin Simi nodded in confusion, and then she reacted in surprise and said, "Is Daoist Xu planning to stay on the island?"

"That's exactly what the Taoist priest meant." Liang Xia cupped his hands, "If it's possible, please go back and report to Fellow Daoist Yin right now, and the Taoist priest will discuss it in detail today."

In surprise, Yin Simiu hurriedly took out a small silver bell from her bun. She shook it, and the bell made a tinkling sound: "No, no, I can tell my mother right now."

"Good." Liang Xia cupped his hands, "The poor Taoist also go to report to the Taoist priest."

But before he took a step, there was a chuckle from the sea, and it was a tall and plump mature shark girl, sweeping the sea water, flying directly towards the boat.

"Coincidentally, this concubine just happened to come to see Fellow Daoist Xu."

This shark girl is Yin Simian's mother, Yin Dang.In fact, she has been wandering around the black boat from time to time in the past few days, trying to get a better understanding of Xu Dao's origin and details.

For example, this mature shark girl recognized at a glance that the black boat under Xu Dao's feet was not owned by him, but obtained by him from robbery.

Squeak!

The Foundation Establishment Mermaid came, and Xu Dao, who had been shutting the door, finally came out of the cabin, stood on the top, and raised his hand to the other party from a distance, "I met you, fellow Taoist."

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, the two went directly into Xu Dao's room and began to talk in detail.

After spending some time, the two first finalized the treatment during the period of the guest, and Xu Dao also promised that he would not leave the island within three years, and proposed the matter of private territory.

After Yin Dangyu thought about it for a while, she also agreed, but for the specific method, Xu Dao had to meet the island owner in person.

But Xu Daoying came down, and Yin Dangyu no longer kept the specific matters about pioneering wasteland and opening up islands, and directly told Xu Dao the inside story.

It turns out that the island that Sharkman Island is planning to develop and fight for fell from the sky, and there are even rumors in the sea that there may be spiritual veins on it!

This immediately made Xu Dao's eyelids twitch slightly.

Isn't this kind of island formed from fragments after the state of Wu was broken?It's just that I don't know whether it is big or small, and which piece it is.
