Chapter 1263: Encounter in a Small Town
Guiyu Town is a small seaside town that makes a living by fishing and fish trading.

Because it is located on the southernmost coast of the continent, during the sea breeze season, the temperature is not cold, but it is humid all year round, and it is not a particularly good place to live.

The only fish that could be brought back required the strong laborers in the town to get up early and go to sea late every day to bring them back.

Therefore, after so many years of development, although Guiyu Town has become a well-known small seafood trading market, the transportation can only be done by the town's horse-drawn carriages, which transport the goods to the nearest city with a teleportation array.

The journey of more than an hour is neither short nor far.

The fish market opened early, and it was still dark. Orders from major cities and restaurants had already been placed. By the time the fish were transported from the various teleportation arrays to the major towns, the sky had just started to brighten.

There are more than one town like Guiyu Town. Everyone is used to this time rule, no one finds it inconvenient, and no one will go to the trouble of building a teleportation array just for transporting fish.

Mu Jingjing looked at the crowds of people going to the beach in the sunset glow and was a little dumbfounded: "This is not the same sea as I imagined..."

Lin Fan could understand.

Before she saw the sea for the first time in Lanxing, she was full of longing for the beauty of the blue sky and the breeze blowing in her hair. She looked so beautiful standing in the sea in her long skirt...

But in fact, when she saw the sea for the first time, there was only gray-blue foam with waves of weeds and garbage washed ashore. She didn't dare to get close to it, let alone stand in it.

The sea breeze had a salty smell, and it blew all her hair onto her face, making it impossible to pull it away. Her skin was indescribably sticky...

The gap between ideal and reality is always so sudden and cruel.

Since then, Lin Fan no longer dared to have excessive yearnings for things he had never seen.

The advantage of being cautious is that you don’t have excessive expectations, and naturally you won’t be too disappointed. If you are lucky, you can get some unexpected surprises...

"We came at the right time, just in time for low tide. There will be some shellfish left on the beach, which the seafarers pick up and eat or keep until the next morning to sell." Lin Fan looked at the busy crowd on the beach, and the bustling crowds of Lanxing appeared in his mind. The corners of his mouth curled up and quickly flattened, looking at the sun sinking below the sea level, and said. "If it were a little later, these people would have dispersed. If there is a moon at night, this sea is still very beautiful."

The ground beneath their feet was not flat sand, but uneven rocks. Coupled with the busy crowd, it was full of life.

But Mu Jingjing seems to come from a good family, so such beauty may not be to her liking.

"It's normal that you didn't find the right place for your first time here." Du Xingyu patted his chest and said to Mu Jingjing, "Brother, go and ask. Let's go to that white sand area, it must be beautiful to watch the moon there!" After saying that, he jumped away on the stones.

Because there is a fish market in Guiyu Town, there are quite a lot of people coming and going every day.

The children who were fishing at the beach didn't seem surprised to see a stranger. They answered his question and then bent down to continue their work.

"I've asked," Du Xingyu jumped back with a smile, "and they said the white sand beach is on the other side of the town. Just go straight ahead through the town. But there should be a lot of people going there right now. If you want to see the view, you have to go later, when the moon is at its highest point in the sky."

Mu Jingjing's disappointed heart was filled with longing again, and she nodded repeatedly, "Then we'll go later."

"In that case," Shen Xiuyuan arranged, "let's go to the town first and find a place to have dinner. After dinner, we can go to the beach to enjoy the scenery?"

The proposal was agreed by everyone.

When the flying boat landed on a nearby mountain, Ling Yichen and Ao Hen had not yet gotten up.

Du Xingyu felt like he was covered in lice and was unwilling to wait even a moment longer.

Shen Xiuyuan was afraid that he would let himself go too much without anyone watching, so he had to hand over the controller of the flying boat to Yu Sinian who volunteered to stay behind to keep people company. He brought Du Xingyu and Lin Fan out to find out the situation first.

Mu Jingjing naturally followed Lin Fan. Jin Tong hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to follow Lin Fan.

Although Guiyu Town is not very wealthy, it has everything it needs. The salty and humid sea breeze has a special smell that evenly permeates every corner of the town.

There were also some scattered stalls in the fish market in the evening, with fish that had not been sold out in the morning scattered on them. They were all seafood that could not be seen inland, and Mu Jingjing and others were amazed at the sight.

What surprised them even more was that here they could buy fresh seafood directly and take it to the restaurant for processing.

This novel dining experience made it hard for everyone not to be eager to try it. Du Xingyu, carrying a full bag of seafood in both hands, skipped towards the restaurant recommended by the vendor, which had the most variety and the best taste.

The restaurant's sign is not big, just a wooden sign with "Xue Ji" hung on the old door, and it can be seen that it is quite old.

The storefront is not small, with eight octagonal tables in four rows inside and outside, plus the tables in the middle and against the wall, a total of thirty-eight tables.

Further in is the kitchen with a curtain hanging over it.

When they arrived, it was just getting dark and the lobby was already full of people, with only three empty tables left.

The air was filled with a rich aroma of food that went straight into people's noses.

Lin Fan suddenly felt very hungry and felt like he could eat an elephant.

"The food in this kind of shop is usually good!" Du Xingyu turned his head and whispered to the people behind him before entering the shop. After that, he called the boss and handed over the ingredients.

There was almost no need to wait for freshly cooked dishes. When the second dish was just served, Lingxi received a message.

Yu Sinian asked them where they were, and Ao Hen and Ling Yichen woke up.

"Tsk~" Du Xingyu unhappily put one foot on the bench, slammed the wine in the store, and said with disgust, "You really don't let me rest for a while."

I thought that since those two people were not around, they would be able to talk more relaxedly, but before the dishes were served and the conversation started, they came again.

When Ao Hen and Ling Yichen came in, the dishes on the table were already on the table. Although they hadn't touched anything because they were waiting, it wasn't enough.

Mu Jingjing took the initiative to buy more and dragged Lin Fan to the market again.

Unfortunately, there was no food in the market, so I made a wasted trip. Fortunately, the restaurant had ingredients, so I added a few more dishes and finally started eating.

During the meal, everyone was very quiet.

Ling Yichen and Du Xingyu were both in low spirits.

Mu Jingjing was so attracted by the delicious food that she didn't care about anything else and just focused on eating.

The other few people were not talkative people, and they completely implemented the rule of not talking while eating.

If they don't say it, others will.

There are walking merchants in the restaurant, vendors who are treating merchants to meals, local fishermen covered in the smell of the sea...all kinds of people are eating, drinking, talking and laughing, making it very lively.

Lin Fan keenly caught a few familiar words in the noisy voice. After a brief observation, he quickly found the target five tables away.

There were six people at that table. Judging from their attire, they were ordinary people from the underworld. On the bench beside them were bamboo hats, with brand new swords underneath.

But this level of disguise is nothing in Lin Fan's eyes.

Six monks? Why are they in such a remote place? They can't be hiding from people like them, right?
"...Really? Is it really necessary to be so cautious? Let us go around in such a big circle to investigate." A muttered and threw a peanut into his mouth.

"That's right," Yi picked up the wine glass, obviously he had drunk a little too much, and echoed with a little tongue, "Ling, Lingzhen Pavilion is famous, who in the world doesn't know it? But they want us to hide our identities and take such a detour. It's as if someone dares to follow us and plot against us..."

Their voices were not actually very loud, but to Lin Fan, as long as she let them, their whispers seemed to be right next to her ears.

Lingzhen Pavilion?
Lin Fan raised his eyes to look at Ao Hen and found that he was leaning back inconspicuously, obviously eavesdropping as well.

Scan again.

Ok!

Except for Jin Tong, everyone at the table was listening quietly...
