The ancient giant bear hiding in the world of immortal cultivation

Chapter 269: The Crying Baby in the West Sea
After getting on the boat, General Wang Wu carefully put General Xuelang down. Li Da's wife had already handed him a blanket and smiled friendly.

Her cultivation had barely reached the eighth level. Perhaps because of years of hard work, she did not look like a cultivator.

Her son has cultivated to the seventh level, and it seems that all the family's resources are tilted towards him.

The young man was somewhat energetic, but more of him was filled with strong vigilance and uneasiness, like a panicked little animal. Perhaps he found it difficult to understand what his father had done, why did he rashly accept two strangers?

There is no doubt that he is still young, but he has already felt the hardship of life.

His wife, on the other hand, was only a ninth-rank cultivator, and her cultivation was basically interrupted just as she began.

According to Madam Yu, pregnancy and childbirth are taboos on the path of cultivation. Although it will not completely block the path of cultivation, it will be difficult to make further progress.

Wang Wu nodded in thanks, covered General Snow Wolf with the blanket, and then sat down next to him.

Soon, Li Da activated the talisman on the sail, and seeing the strong wind, the fishing boat flew out like an arrow, and there was also a shining light on the hull. Wow, this fishing boat has a very high level of technological content.

Can it reach at least 100 miles per hour?
Not only that, because Li Da only activated three sails, there are still six sails that have not been activated.

In addition, the hull seems to have an air flotation device that can keep the hull out of the sea water. Wow, if it is at full speed, a speed of 500 miles per hour should be no problem.

Although this doesn't even allow for the most basic sword-wielding skills, there seems to be no better way under such circumstances.

After sailing for about an hour, as night fell, Li Da stopped the fishing boat, took out a conch horn and blew it hard.

"Woooooooo..."

The low sound of the conch horn rang out on the empty sea, and it seemed to carry some strange power that could summon mysterious unknown existences.

General Snow Wolf looked at Wang Wu with some worry. He was not very confident about the human race. However, Wang Wu shook his head slightly. He did not feel any danger.

What followed was a silent wait. After about a few minutes, huge ripples suddenly appeared on the sea water, as if some huge creature was floating up from the deep seabed!

In a blink of an eye, the giant creature broke out of the water. It was an octopus siren as big as a hill. It had dozens of huge tentacles, each of which was more than ten miles long.

But the strange thing is that on the back of this octopus monster, there is a serious old human being sitting, and his strength is barely at the fifth level.

But the strength of this octopus mermaid has already reached the peak of the third level.

Wang Wu immediately understood that this was a spirit beast, and a guardian spirit beast at that.

It was the old man's ancestors who made a contract with this octopus mermaid, and it was passed down from generation to generation. The old man's family is estimated to have been passed down for more than a dozen generations, and is becoming increasingly declining, but relying on this octopus mermaid, they can actually live well.

At this moment, the dignified old man glanced at them and said in a deep voice: "Brother Li, this is not the agreed day. What are you doing here in Haixu?"

"Brother Chang, please don't blame me. I really have something important to tell you. These two are wandering people I met in the sea. They have nowhere to go, so I want to introduce them to be fishermen. But you know, if you want to be a fisherman, you need a fishing boat. I have to ask you for help on this matter."

"Nonsense!" The dignified old man frowned, "You don't even know their background, and you come to me. If something goes wrong, it will be too late for you to regret it!"

Li Da smiled bitterly, "What can we do? There are fewer and fewer human cultivators on the west coast. Now, all together, there are less than a hundred of them. We finally met two human cultivators, so we have to help them. Besides, we are already in such a bad situation. This is all we have. We usually just smuggle some fragrant honey. Even Jade Bee Immortal is too lazy to encircle and suppress us, so there is nothing we can do."

"Brother Chang, please help me!"

"Ah! You!"

The old man surnamed Chang sighed, and then looked at Wang Wu and the others. However, after looking at them for a while, he still couldn't get the point, so he lowered his head and said to the octopus monster, "Grandpa Zhang, please help me take a look."

As soon as the words fell, the huge octopus sea monster that was as big as a mountain suddenly changed into a white-haired old man. It stared at Wang Wu for a while and nodded, "This is a human."

After looking at General Snow Wolf for a while, he nodded, "This should also be a person, but you have a bit of demonic aura."

"I can't tell from the others, they are too clean. But based on my experience of living for 1,500 years, I think they are in big trouble. I suggest you don't get involved with them, so as to avoid getting into trouble. Of course, this may also be an opportunity. It depends on how you little bastards decide."

After saying this, the octopus mermaid dived into the water and disappeared.

At this time, the old man surnamed Chang frowned for a moment, and finally shook his head, "Sorry, my friend, and brother Li, we can't take such a big risk. Grandpa Zhang is not wrong."

Hearing this, Li Da could only smile apologetically at Wang Wu.

"It's okay, thank you Brother Li for your kindness, but can I buy some supplies from you?" Wang Wu didn't care. If it weren't for General Snow Wolf, he would have gone ashore to steal honey.

"Supplies? Well, it's not impossible, but what are you going to use to pay? Listen carefully, we are not the Great Wilderness here, we don't accept spirit tickets from the Immortal Alliance!"

The old man surnamed Chang still seemed somewhat resistant.

"Of course they are not spirit tickets. They are some ownerless swords I picked up on the battlefield in the Northern Wasteland. I wonder if they are feasible?"

As Wang Wu spoke, he casually took out a sixth-grade sword. The next second, the old man surnamed Chang's eyes suddenly lit up, and even Li Da jumped up from the fishing boat.

"Hey, my friend, you should have told me earlier that there would be no problem with the supplies."

The old man surnamed Chang shouted, and in a blink of an eye, fishing boats came out from all directions, no more, no less, including Li Da's boat, there were exactly twelve.

So, these guys are just preparing to fight in a group once the action starts, right?

So stubborn.

At this time, a capable man on a fishing boat shouted, "Brother Chang, Brother Li, as everyone knows, I have just been promoted to the sixth rank, and I need a sword!"

"Shut up, I'm a fifth-grade sword, and now I only have a seventh-grade sword. What did I say?"

"Be quiet. We are all relatives. Why are you quarreling? You are making fun of our friends from outside. So, what is the name of this friend?"

"Wang Zhige!"

"Oh, what a nice name. You can tell at a glance that you are a particular person. Brother Wang, what do you want to exchange this sword for?"

After a lively argument, the old man surnamed Chang finally controlled the situation and avoided bidding against each other.

"I want to change my spiritual essence."

Wang Wu said directly that he didn't need anything else but spiritual essence. What he and General Snow Wolf lacked the most was spiritual essence. Although he had no shortage of blood and spiritual energy in his body, it was all prepared for sudden battles and must not be used.

And as long as he can exchange back 50,000 points of spiritual energy, he will have enough room for maneuver.

"Spirit essence? How much do you want to exchange for, Brother Wang?"

"One hundred thousand buckets!"

Wang Wu directly opened the price. One hundred thousand dou means one hundred thousand points. Not much, not much at all. A sixth-grade sword has 2000 points of refined gold spiritual energy. In other words, a normal attack with it can easily cause 6000 points of damage.

As soon as he announced the price, a group of people began to whisper, and their eyes were shining. However, one hundred thousand points of spiritual energy was also not a small amount, and no one could afford it.

Seeing this, Wang Wu quickly added another sentence.

"You can use elixirs, spiritual herbs, or the flesh of sea monsters of level 5 or above to pay off the debt."

This time, it finally worked. A woman in her thirties shouted, "Don't fight over it. I want this sword! Dad, hurry up!"

Well, the old man surnamed Chang is her father.

"Haha, Brother Wang, look—"

"Sorry, no bargaining!" Wang Wu shook his head.

"Then I want to take a look at the quality of this sword first." The old man surnamed Chang was a little reassured.

Wang Wu threw it over happily.

The old man looked at it over and over again, and even injected spiritual energy into it, manipulating it for a moment, and was full of praise for it.

Just kidding, these are the swords prepared by the wealthy children of the human race. They are absolutely excellent.

Definitely willing to cut in.

"Okay, okay! Deal!"

The old man surnamed Chang was also very happy. He shouted loudly in exchange for the octopus monster, and pulled out a large gourd that was more than ten meters long and several meters thick from its mouth. However, it was not a spiritual gourd, but a common low-level gourd. This thing can hold a large amount of spiritual energy. Although there will be some leakage and it is inconvenient to move, it is indeed very useful.

Wang Wu also took out his Lingyun Gourd, and this time, it immediately caused a sound of people gasping for air. Although these human cultivators had never been to the Great Wilderness, they still had some experience.

Lingyun Gourd is extremely precious.

For a moment, a hint of greed appeared on many people's faces.

But in the end, he was awakened by the cough of the old man surnamed Chang.

"Grandpa Zhang is right. You two really have brought big trouble with you. We are a small family and cannot afford to offend you. Please rest assured that we will never let the news leak out. After today, we have never seen you two again. Please, for the sake of being a human, spare us!"

This guy!
Wang Wu smiled, threw the Lingyun Gourd over, and then took out a sixth-grade sword.

"Please fill it up for me. Don't worry, my husband and I are just passing by here."

After saying this, he also threw the second sixth-grade sword over. It was a fair trade with no cheating on anyone.

His goodwill is there, if you don't want it, it's up to you.

"Okay! Then it's a fair trade!"

The old man surnamed Chang took the Lingyun Gourd, filled it with spiritual energy in one breath, and threw it back without hesitation. Just based on the other party's confident demeanor, they knew they were not someone they could afford to offend.

Then the best outcome is that everyone treats the other party as just passing by, the transaction is completed, and they have never met before.

"Thank you very much!"

Wang Wu put away the Lingyun Gourd, and was very satisfied with the result. He clasped his fists to everyone, then looked at Li Da who was a little stunned, and said with a smile:
"Brother Li, thank you for showing me the way. Please accept this as a small token of gratitude."

Wang Wu took out an eighth-grade sword and handed it over. This family was still good, but life at sea was difficult and he couldn't help much.

"This, this, this, how can this be done!" Li Da's face turned red with excitement, no longer having the demeanor of a fishing monk. He did not expect that the guy in front of him, who he just met, would be so generous. Isn't it just showing him the way?
"Okay, just consider it as buying Brother Li's boat."

Wang Wu gently exerted force with his right foot, and the rope that tied the boat broke, and the boat floated away.

But at this moment, Li Da's newborn grandson suddenly started crying loudly. Soon after, the babies on other fishing boats also cried violently without exception. No matter how they were comforted, it didn't work. It was very strange.

Wang Wu was also startled, thinking that something had happened. He was also afraid that these people might misunderstand him, so he stopped immediately. Unexpectedly, General Snow Wolf, who had been silent all the way, suddenly whispered, "Infant Crying Curse?"

"what?"

Wang Wu didn't understand.

"It is said that there is a demon king in the West Sea who loves new things and hates old ones. He ordered the death of the demon queen, and then she turned into a demon woman with her resentment. She appears once every fifty years and can make all the infants and children within a thousand miles cry. The one who cries the loudest will turn into a crying baby beast after twelve hours and escape into the vast ocean, disappearing to an unknown destination."

General Snow Wolf spoke in a quiet voice, but it made everyone on the boat shudder.

Wang Wu also felt terrified.

"Is this true?"

"I don't know. This is the first time I've seen it, too."

"Then how do we remove the curse?"

"You want to save?"

"Of course, if I meet someone like that, there's no reason not to save him!"

Wang Wu said this as a matter of course. General Snow Wolf looked at him seriously for a few seconds and nodded, "Find the witch and kill her, and the curse will be broken. But it's best to do it quickly. Within twelve hours, that's the time to break the curse."
