C45 Get on the Boat and Pay up
In the blink of an eye, they were far away from the cliff.
Lin Yue looked back and saw the cliff began to crack. Huge rocks fell into the ocean, increasing the size and strength of the waves.
The tree that Lin Yue was carrying was as thick as three people's arms. It was about ten meters long, and it was very easy to carry three people.
However, Lin Yue still felt a little uncomfortable. He took out a long sword and quickly cut in the middle of the tree trunk.
Half an hour later, a boat about five meters long was formed. Lin Yue also used the wood he cut out to make two oar paddles.
"You are too talented." Hwa Zhuyin and Tang Wan'er no longer had to tightly hug the tree trunk. They climbed to the middle cabin and laid comfortably.
This time, it was also very dangerous.
The oasis had completely sunk. Only the messy trees floating on the surface of the water indicated that it had once existed.
"Isn't that Huang Mu and Mei Dieh?" Hwa Zhuyin pointed not far away.
Lin Yue looked over and saw a man and a woman grabbing onto a tree branch as thick as an arm. They were in a very sorry state. They were the two men from the Heavenly Tao Sect.
"Hey, genius from a big sect, how did you end up like this? Do you want to take a boat? The fee is very cheap." Hwa Zhuyin shouted loudly.
Mei Dieh was cursing at this damn Ten Thousand Fire Space when she suddenly heard a shout. She looked towards the source of the sound and her face turned ugly.
"Senior Brother Huang, let's go and grab the boat." Mei Dieh said hatefully.
She felt very uncomfortable soaking in the water.
"Junior sister, I'm afraid that the Spiritual Fire has already been refined by them. We are no match for them." Huang Mu's eyes were somewhat dim.
Mei Dieh glared at him. It was all his fault for being useless. He was truly a waste.
"The clothes on the boat will dry up in a while. He can still eat, drink, and have fun." Hwa Zhuyin deliberately took out food from the Storage Ring and chewed on it. She even took out fine wine to drink a few mouthfuls.
Mei Dieh's entire body was immersed in the water except for her head. Although she could also eat and drink, it was not as relaxed and unrestrained as on the boat.
Moreover, the ocean was boundless. Who knew how long it would take to float in the water.
"Senior brother, why don't we get on the boat?" Mei Dieh said.
"I'll listen to you." Huang Mu originally did not want to lose so much dignity, but since Mei Dieh said so, he could only go along with her.
"How much does it cost to board the boat?" Huang Mu shouted.
"Two hundred taels." Hwa Zhuyin was a little surprised. She just wanted to anger them, but she did not expect them to actually come.
Since it was like this, don't blame her for being impolite.
"Okay, two hundred taels it is." Huang Mu did not lack this bit of money and swam over with Mei Dieh.
"Do you really plan to let them come up?" Tang Wan'er asked.
"If you don't earn money, your crime cannot be forgiven!" Hwa Zhuyin smiled evilly, "Of course we have to pay first before boarding the ship."
The two of them had already swam nearby. Huang Mu threw out two hundred taels of silver.
"Are you teasing me?" Hwa Zhuyin looked at the silver and her eyes widened. "I said two hundred taels of gold! What do you mean by silver? Do you think that I am very poor?!"
Huang Mu was speechless. 200 gold taels was enough to build a luxurious royal family ship.
He glanced at Mei Dieh, but she did not seem to have any intention of leaving.
"Okay, here you go!" He threw out two hundred taels of gold.
Hwa Zhuyin took it and was very satisfied. But she continued, "Wait, I said two hundred taels per person. You can come up alone."
"You!" Huang Mu was furious. This was simply extortion!
Mei Dieh was also very depressed. She knew Hwa Zhuyin was playing with them, but she really did not want to keep soaking in the water.
"Here you go, pauper!" Huang Mu gritted his teeth and threw another two hundred taels of gold.
Hwa Zhuyin put away the gold. "Come up. You two sit across from me."
Huang Mu and Mei Dieh were full of anger, but they did not want to flare up.
Hwa Zhuyin could let them come up, so she was definitely not afraid of them making things difficult for her.
Mei Dieh only found out in surprise when she boarded the ship that the trunk of this big tree was actually so thick and long. This ship was only the middle of the tree trunk.
"What a freak. He jumped down and hugged such a big tree. Why wasn't he slapped to death by the water or crushed to death by the water pressure?" Mei Dieh said hatefully in her heart.
Although she did not stand out in the Heavenly Tao Sect, there were still many people who tried to please her and circled around her.
But she did not expect that today, her self-esteem would be stepped on twice by the same group of people.
She was not a vicious person. It was just that she had been spoiled and was a little selfish.
The two of them sat quietly on the boat and didn't speak.
After all, two hours ago, the two groups of people had swords and sabers facing each other, but now, they were sitting on the same boat. They couldn't help but sigh at the wonders of life.
At this time, the wind and waves were getting stronger and stronger. Lin Yue had no choice but to use his spiritual energy to drive the ship forward.
"He's only a Pulse Opening Fifth Layer, but his spiritual energy is so long." Huang Mu was secretly surprised and became more and more curious about Lin Yue.
When he fought Lin Yue previously, he was subdued by his exquisite movement technique. Now, he saw that his spiritual energy was so long and continuous, as if it was endless and endless, and he was once again shocked.
"I don't know how I should address everyone, but I hope you can forgive me for offending me earlier." Huang Mu stood up and cupped his fists.
"This is Mu Yue, and this is Yue Er. My name is Yin Er." Hwa Zhuyin said casually.
She did not know what Huang Mu was thinking. It was better to not reveal his real name. Otherwise, if he were to take revenge later on, there would be endless trouble.
Mei Dieh did not expect Huang Mu to take the initiative to apologize and glared at him.
But when she saw the look he gave her, she knew that he had another motive.
"Brother Mu Yue, that movement technique of yours is too exquisite. I wonder which sect you are cultivating in?" Huang Mu asked.
"My talent is too shallow. I didn't join any sect, but I cultivated blindly." Lin Yue said in a flat tone.
Huang Mu cursed in his heart. Who was he trying to fool? To cultivate blindly was already so powerful. If he cultivated well, he would have become a Star-treading Stage warrior a long time ago.
He had to take it easy when boasting, it was too much of a show-off.
"Can you tell me the name of the movement skill?" Huang Mu was still unwilling to give up. After all, the movement technique was too attractive.
"Chasing Chicken and Dog Dog Steps." Lin Yue knew that he didn't have good intentions, but he didn't have a good face either.
Hwa Zhuyin and Tang Wan'er laughed out loud. Lin Yue was really too bad.
Huang Mu and Mei Dieh's faces darkened. Wasn't he using a different method to call them chickens and dogs?
However, they also didn't want to act out. It was the most despicable thing to ask others.
The two groups of people became silent again. Unknowingly, they had drifted for three hours.
"It can't be that they have drifted to the end just like that, right?" Hwa Zhuyin looked up and saw that the surface of the sea was still connected to the horizon.
She had yet to find the Spiritual Fire and was very anxious.
"If that is the case, there is no other way. I can only say that you carry it on your back." At this time, the wind and waves were much smaller. Lin Yue put down the oar and carefully looked at the bottom of the water.
"What are you looking at? Could there be fish?" Hwa Zhuyin curled her lips.
If there were other living creatures in this space, then the person who built this space was too heaven-defying.
"Don't say, there really is." A long sword appeared in Lin Yue's hand. He thrust it forward and lifted it up. There was a big fish about half a meter long hanging on the sword.
"Oh my god, there really is a fish!" Hwa Zhuyin touched the big fish and confirmed that it really existed.
Lin Yue threw the big fish to the side, raised his sword, and brought two big fish with him.
"After struggling for so long, I'm hungry too. I'm tired of the food, let's eat something else." Lin Yue took out some iron racks from the Storage Ring, changed them to grills, and found three more iron wires to put the fish on.
"You're not planning to roast fish, are you?" Hwa Zhuyin asked tentatively.
"I guessed right." Lin Yue nodded.
"Are you crazy? Aren't you afraid of setting the boat on fire?" Huang Mu and Mei Dieh said at the same time.
If the boat was gone, they would suffer in this vast ocean.
Lin Yue glanced at them and said faintly, "Do you think I will be so stupid?"
He used wood to surround a 30-centimeter square frame and filled it with seawater. Then, he placed a piece of metal on the surface of the water and moved the grill over to let the fish approach the metal plate.
The waste of the shipbuilding materials had not been completely thrown away. It was just nice to start a fire.
He placed the piece of wood on the metal plate and started to roast fish.
"You are so smart. If the fire burns the iron plate, the wood that supports it will be burned down. When the time comes, the piece of metal will be overturned." Huang Mu said decisively.
However, this did not happen even when the fish was roasted to the eighth maturity. The iron plate did not even turn red.
In a short while, the fragrance assailed their nostrils, making them salivate.
"Senior brother, I also want to eat it." Mei Dieh said in a low voice.
She had been eating dry food for the past few days and it was so annoying.
Huang Mu felt a little awkward. Just now, he had said that it did not happen, and now he wanted to ask others for fish to eat. It was difficult for him to speak.
"Everyone, you won't be able to finish all three big fish. Can you sell one to us?" Huang Mu finally mustered up his courage and said.
Now, his pride as a disciple of a big sect was almost gone.
"Alright, this one is two hundred silver." Hwa Zhuyin was very straightforward, "Gold!"
Actually, two fish was enough for the three of them to eat. If it was not enough, they could roast it again. Anyway, the ingredients were readily available.0
Huang Mu had a long face. Although he was a disciple of a large sect, most of his money was spent on buying spirit medicines, so he was not that rich.
But seeing Mei Dieh's face full of desire to eat, he could only grit his teeth and throw two hundred taels of gold to Hwa Zhuyin.
"How did you guys do it?" Huang Mu was very curious why the iron plate did not turn red from the heat.
"Let me teach you." Hwa Zhuyin pointed at the water under the metal plate. "Although the metal plate came into contact with the flame, the temperature above was absorbed by the water below. Before the water boiled, the iron plate would not burn the wood quickly."
As an alchemist, she was very familiar with the transmission of heat.
Huang Mu suddenly realized that he had never thought of such a simple reason.
Soon, the grilled fish was ready. Huang Mu hurriedly took one and passed it to Mei Dieh.
"Really... It's really delicious!" Mei Dieh tore off a piece of fish meat and her mouth was filled with the fragrance of fish. "How can the fish be so delicious!"
Hwa Zhuyin and Tang Wan'er did not have a large appetite. The two of them ate one while Lin Yue ate one himself.
"Come, try his craftsmanship. It's not bad." Hwa Zhuyin said.
Tang Wan'er picked up a piece and put it into her mouth. Her eyes lit up.
She didn't expect Lin Yue to be so good at cooking. If she could marry him, she would be able to enjoy delicious food for the rest of her life.
Tang Wan'er didn't know why she had such thoughts, but her face turned red again.
Lin Yue was also hungry, so he started to eat.
However, under the calm weather, there were many undercurrents!
