Probably out of fear of misunderstanding, Yongshu specifically explained:
"To tell you the truth, our Haiji Island is not suitable for farming, and we rely on food as soon as possible. Since the shogunate issued the hunting order, more and more people have come, and our food can only remain in a state of being enough to eat... …”
As the host, Yongshu is relatively clear about the situation on the island, and the stupid young man like Oi also knows more.
There are many reasons why Kaiji Island started the war. The name of the Resistance Eye Hunting Order was just to attract those holders of the Eye of God.
Without this name, it would have been impossible for this war to last so long, and it would have been impossible for it to remain stalemate.
But the most fundamental reason for this war is that they were forced to live under the lockdown order.
The land in the Coral Palace is not suitable for farming, and food can only be imported.
The national lockdown directly strangled their throats, not to mention the implementation of various high taxes on trade there.
As for the shogunate's intention to interfere in the affairs of Kaiji Island, it is irrelevant in the face of these.
Jiang Bai suddenly realized that this was the truth behind the start of this war.
Although Manyo knew something, his knowledge was not comprehensive due to the limitation of his perspective.
"Take it back and give it to other people in need. We brought food."
"This……"
Both sides declined, but Yongshu finally took it back.
For today's Haiji Island, every piece of food is precious.
"You should rest in the camp first. About the day after tomorrow, I will take you to see Mr. Coral Palace."
"Is it the goddess and witch who appeared?" Jiang Bai was a little surprised.
This should be the supreme ruler of Haiji Island. Are we going to see him so soon?
Will everyone who joins Kaijijima meet, or are only the holders of the Eye of God special?
"That's right. Lord Coral Palace welcomes every companion who joins us!"
Jiang Bai flattered him very naturally: "I have heard of Lord Coral Palace's name a long time ago, and I am really looking forward to it..."
After chatting for a while, Jiang Bai took Chang Ci into the tent to rest.
The tent is very simple, but quite clean.
Because they were the only two people who had come to defect recently, there were only a few outside soldiers in the camp besides the two of them.
"You have a good rest and sleep, and I'll go check out the situation. If I don't come back tonight, don't wait for me. I'll be back tomorrow night at the latest."
He left some food and fruit for Changji. After thinking about it, he added: "If they ask where I went, just tell the truth. You can also tell me my true identity and where I came from. explain."
Jiang Bai planned to find an anchor point to see the situation on Kong's side.
It’s been a while since I was in the air on the outlying island, so it was time to meet up and share our experiences.
After telling Yongshu to look around, Jiang Bai swaggered out of the camp.
After reaching a high place, Jiang Bai could see the full picture of his current location.
They were not on the main island of Haiji Island at the moment, but on a small island next to Haiji Island.
No wonder Yongshu didn't say anything when he said he wanted to take a look around, because there was nothing on the island and he wasn't afraid of anyone exploring it.
But luckily, there is a leyline anchor on this small island.
After putting on a set of Inazuma-style clothes that had been prepared in advance, Jiang Bai teleported directly to the idol on the outlying island.
When he came back, he paid attention to the terrain. The Seven-Heaven Statue was at the highest point of the outlying island. There were no buildings around it, so it would not be easy for people to detect it when it was teleported.
Jiang Bai took out a bamboo hat and covered his head, and walked towards the city.He was going to inquire about Sora's current location.
Sora and Paimon have such obvious appearances, it should be easy to find out.
Sora was currently sitting in the wooden leak tea room on Narukami Island.
After leaving the outlying island, he did not come to the Mokuro Teahouse immediately. Instead, he walked around Inazuma City first, learned about Inazuma's current situation, and sent Qianli Hiiragi's letter there, and then came to Mokuro Tea House. Leak tea room.
General Raiden has lived in the castle tower for a long time and rarely comes out. The castle tower is an important place and is guarded by many soldiers. Only three people can see General Raiden.
If you want to see General Thunder and Lightning, you can only rely on Sanfengxing.
That's why he came here, ready to meet the Princess Egret who was worshiped by the Toma Kou Society.
The wooden leak tea room was very quiet, except for a big dog wearing human clothes and a bamboo hat lying on the counter.
"You are finally here. The days waiting for your arrival are really long!" A familiar voice came from the big dog's position.
"Thoma!" Pamon's eyes widened in surprise, "You, you, you, you are a dog!"
Thomas: "."
I seem to have been scolded.
I'm so sleepy, go to sleep
Chapter 457 Why doesn’t the statue with thousands of hands and hundreds of eyes look like the God of Thunder?
"I just wanted to welcome you in this way."
Thomas came out from behind the screen and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
"Okay, no more joking, the waiting time for you is really too long, so I thought of this special way of reception."
To Sora and Paimon's speechless looks, Thomas said seriously:
"Please allow me to apologize for what happened before. All the previous tests are necessary. This determines whether I can bring you to the young lady, and whether we can become partners who dare to face the thunder together. "
Paimon put his hands on his hips, still feeling unhappy, "Don't think that if you suddenly become serious, I will forgive you!"
This guy left immediately after a disagreement. It took a lot of effort for them to leave the island.
Toma scratched his head in embarrassment, "Ah ha, sorry, sorry!"
Kong tilted his head slightly, "So, have you got the result?"
"Haha, of course, your will has never wavered."
"So, can we go see Princess Egret?" Sora only cared about meeting General Thunder.
"Of course, no problem. I will take you to the Shenli Mansion, but before that, we have to go to a place - the Thousand Hands and Hundred Eyes Statue!"
"All right."
Sora had actually seen the statue a long time ago and knew what the statue represented, but he just didn't get close to see it.
In order for him to join them and face General Raiden, Toma really spared no effort.
Jiang Bai inquired about the outlying islands. According to the businessmen doing business on the outlying islands, they had not seen the blond traveler and his white floating object for several days.
In other words, Sora has left the remote island, and if he guessed correctly, he should be in Inazuma Castle on Narukami Island now.
After trying the checkpoint on the outlying island and failing to pass it, Jiang Bai found an uninhabited place and took off, flying directly to Narukami Island.
Although it would attract people's attention in broad daylight, there is no other way. Unless General Thunder comes to the sky to catch him in person, no one can really do anything to him.
After flying all the way to Narukami Island, he found a deserted place to land and walked into Inazuma Castle.
As the main city of Daozuma, Daozuma City is home to more than 60.00% of Daozuma's population, making the city quite large.
It was not obvious when I was out on the island before, but after entering Inazuma Castle, the rich Inazuma style hit my face.
Purple houses, purple trees, purple grass, purple fallen flowers, everything is filled with the rich purple color of thunder and lightning.
It’s just that these purples have different shades, blending harmoniously with the city.
Gudong poked his head out of Jiang Bai's pocket, curiously looking at places he had never seen before.
He climbed onto Jiang Bai's shoulders, pretending that he was a toy doll, and his eyes moved around.
After arriving at Daozhu, in order not to attract unnecessary attention, Gudong spent most of his time sleeping in Jiang Bai's pocket, and would only come out when he encountered something interesting.
It is now extremely interested in Inazuma Castle, which it has never been to before.
"Stay ready, don't fall."
Jiang Bai planned to go to the Adventurers Association to ask first, and then randomly search in the city.
If you don't find it before tomorrow evening, you will have to come back next time.
The Adventurers Association is easy to find. Jiang Bai will know where it is just by asking for directions.
Sure enough, Jiang Bai met Catherine again.
Catherine is exactly the same as Mond, the receptionist of the Adventurers Association in Liyue.
There was the alchemy creature Albedo in the past, and there was the puppet skirmisher in the back. Jiang Bai accepted this identical Catherine well.
I just don’t know what kind of creation Catherine is, but one thing is for sure – Catherine is not a real person.
"Hello, Catherine."
Catherine wore a standard smile and placed her hands clasped on her lower abdomen, "Hello, welcome to the Adventurers Association."
"I want to ask you about a blond traveler and his traveling companion Paimon. Have you seen them?"
"I've seen it before. Are you looking for this adventurer to issue a commission?"
"That's not true. Do you know where they are?"
"Sorry, I don't know where they are now. But I can leave a message for you if necessary."
"Then I'll leave it to you. My name is Jiang Bai. Just tell him that I'm here to find him."
As for the agreed time and place to meet, that's not very realistic.
After walking out of the Adventurers Association, Jiang Bai looked at the pedestrians coming and going and said to himself:
"The time has come to test our fate."
Finding someone in this huge city really depends on fate.
After walking around the city for a while, Jiang Bai bought two skewers of croquettes from a roadside stall and planned to go to the statue of the god that was still under construction.
The statue is quite tall and can be seen at a glance in the city.
Although it was far away and could not be seen clearly, Jiang Bai felt that the Thousand Hands White Eyes looked different from the God of Thunder on the Seven Heavens Statue.
As he got closer, the statue of the god became more and more clearly revealed in front of Jiang Bai.
This is a seated statue of a god. He sits on a huge circular stone platform. The hood covers most of his hair, but it depicts clear facial features.
He folded his hands on his knees and closed his eyes. The two huge tree wings behind him were dotted with twinkling lights.
Jiang Bai felt that the image of this statue was completely different from that of the God of Thunder of the Seven Heavens Statue, and it did not even look like the statue of the God of Thunder.
But in Inazuma, which is ruled by the God of Thunder, what is the possibility of building such a large statue that is not the God of Thunder?
Or is it that the god represented by this statue must be respected even by the God of Thunder?
Could it be said that this is the so-called [Heavenly Law]?
As he got closer and closer, Jiang Bai also saw clearly what the shiny things on the wings of the statue were. It turned out to be the eyes of gods.
"Are all the Eyes of God collected by the Eye Hunting Order here?" Jiang Bai murmured in a low voice and glanced at the soldiers guarding him.
There are quite a few soldiers guarding here, and they all have serious expressions. At first glance, they are elite soldiers.
Jiang Bai's eyes fell on the huge palace complex next to him.
This is the tallest and largest building in Inazuma City. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be the residence of General Raiden.
Put the Eye of God on this statue and no one dares to touch it.
Looking at the statue and the chilling aura emanating from it, Gudong felt a little scared and retracted into Jiang Bai's pocket.
The guards here did not prevent people from visiting the statue, nor did they drive away Jiang Bai from under the statue.
Just when Jiang Bai was thinking about who the image represented by this statue was, he heard a familiar and surprising voice coming from behind him.
"Jiang Bai!" Sora and Toma walked up the last step and saw Jiang Bai's Paimon flying over first.
Seeing them, Jiang Bai was in a good mood.
"Fate, it's so wonderful. When I came to Daozuma City, I was thinking about how to find you, but I didn't want to meet you directly here."
