Chapter 24
Chapter 24 Return (Please read on Tuesday!)
The water was cold and rumbling. Three bodies were bobbing in the water, with large smudges of blood.
The white jade boat was wrapped in a golden light and approached cautiously.
Out of caution, Li Quanqing did not disperse the defensive talisman in his hand.
He manipulated the Green Carp Sword to chop off the heads and limbs of the three cultivators one after another, piercing their hearts, making them deader than dead.
"These guys are quite rich!"
Flying swords flew everywhere, picking up their storage bags and salvaging several magical weapons.
The middle-grade magic weapons include the Black Turtle Shield and the Blood Shark Knife, the low-grade magic weapon White Bone Netherworld Needle, and even a low-grade spirit boat.
More than one hundred and twenty spirit stones, some medicinal herbs and five storage bags.
Li Quanshu frowned and said, "Something is wrong. How can a casual cultivator be so rich? This is the level of a cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining!"
Li Quanqing pinched his chin and said, "Senior sister, what you mean is that there is an organization behind them?"
These guys seem to be targeting the Li family, this is indeed possible.
Li Quanshu was not afraid of getting dirty. She picked up the clothes of several corpses and immediately made a new discovery.
This group of Tribulation Cultivators all have more or less the physical signs of monsters, with gills on their chests and scales on their skin.
"No wonder they were lurking underwater, silently, they were transvestites!"
The two of them suddenly realized.
Thousands of years ago, a large number of land cultivators responded to the call from the immortal cultivation world, came to the East China Sea to open up wasteland, and fought a life-and-death battle with the demon clan.
Naturally, there are human traitors among them, some of whom combine with monsters or are transformed by monster blood, giving birth to many strange-looking human-monster groups.
He harbors great malice towards humans.
"The demon tribe sneaked into our Li family's waters and stirred up trouble. Is there going to be a beast tide erupting soon?"
Li Quanshu frowned and felt worried.
The Qingyu Islands are quite close to the human border, and tens of thousands of miles to the east is the territory of the demon race.
For the world of immortal cultivation, a thousand years is too short a time, and the human race has not even occupied one-tenth of the East China Sea.
Li Quanqing didn't know much about these things, but he looked indifferent and happily divided the spoils.
Li Quanshu knew that he had not contributed much and could not refuse, so he just took ten spirit stones symbolically.
"The two people in front are from my Qingyu Li clan?"
It was not until then that the Baoqingfang City’s maritime patrol law enforcement team finally arrived.
Li Quanqing and the other person showed their identity tokens from the Equipment Refining Hall and were immediately warmly welcomed.
"Another robbery attack?"
The captain of the law enforcement team was a mighty man holding a long spear, with the cultivation level of the sixth level of Qi Refining. He frowned and muttered to himself when he heard this.
Li Quanshu was careful and heard the hidden meaning: "Are there other members of the tribe who were attacked?"
The man nodded and said, "In the past month, there have been frequent disasters around the market town. A total of five members of our clan have been killed. They were all traveling together to explore remote sea areas or hunt monsters."
He looked through the three bodies and suddenly realized, "This is the first time we have discovered the true identity of the murderer. It turns out that it was a demon!"
Hearing this, Li Quanqing couldn't help but pat his chest. It was really too dangerous outside, so it would be better for him to return to the fish pond as soon as possible.
"You two have made great contributions to the family. Once we report this to the Second Elder, there will be rewards."
The law enforcement captain smiled. The person in charge of Baoqingfang City was the second elder of the family.
The next morning.
Li Quanqing opened the window and looked out. The sun had just risen and the streets in the market were already bustling with activity.
Baoqingfang covers a large area, stretching for dozens of miles. The island is lush with vegetation and has many shops.
I heard that there are about 6,000 Qi-refining monks stationed here, and there are even more mortals.
Outside the island protection formation, cultivators of all kinds gathered from all directions of the sea.
Some are steering spirit boats, riding the wind and waves, some are riding on various spirit pets, swaggering around, and there are even monks who descend from the sky with the help of magic tools, their aura is unfathomable.
The crowds were bustling, but they all obeyed the rules. Under the supervision of the law enforcement team, they lined up obediently and walked into the market.
With the suppression from the two major foundation-building families and the protection of the second-level formation, no one dared to cause trouble.
“Is this the family heritage?”
Li Quanqing looked at the family crests on the law enforcement team's armor and couldn't help but feel a sense of pride.
Just by wearing the green fish-dragon costume, he would be the most handsome guy on the street when walking in the market.
dong dong!
There was a knock on the door, and the girl's voice came in: "Junior brother, are you up?"
As soon as he opened the door, Li Quanshu threw a bag over: "Here, your Blood Shark Knife and those sundries sold for a total of 108 Spiritual Stones."
"Senior sister, you are very efficient!" The young man took it happily.
Li Quanshu's father ran a shop for the family in the market town and had many connections.
Li Quanqing checked his storage bag. After last night's battle, his spirit stone reserves officially exceeded three hundred.
It turned out to be the gold belt for murder and arson.
"Would you like to take a walk around the market? It's quite lively."
The girl played with her hair. She grew up here and was very familiar with the place.
Li Quanqing refused, saying that the shellfish were still in his body and needed to be put back into the fish pond as soon as possible.
Moreover, the family fleet only has one trip back to Qingyu Island in the morning, so time is very tight.
They walked out of the attic cave belonging to the family, and the law enforcement captain they met last night saw them off all the way.
When the second elder learned of their contributions, he rewarded each of them with 200 family contribution points.
As collateral clan members, they could not see this powerful elder.
At the Fangshi Pier, hundreds of spiritual boats were docked, as well as various pleasure boats and houseboats, shining brightly and looking quite spectacular.
Two large spirit boats were docked in the deep water, as tall as mountains. One belonged to the Qingyu Li family, and the other belonged to the Baozhu Island Xie family.
"Let's go!"
Li Quanqing took out the spoils of last night and now he had his own spirit boat.
This low-grade spiritual boat was sea blue and crystal clear, as if it had merged into one with the sea.
The boy liked it very much.
Woohoo!
The large spirit boat issued a familiar horn sound and slowly set off, followed by thousands of sails with a mighty momentum.
Li Quanqing had money in his pocket at this time and no longer saved.
He took out the spirit stone and pressed it into the groove, then he leisurely enjoyed the spectacular scenery along the way.
The two returned to Qingdu Island smoothly and safely.
Li Quanqing found the fishing boat docked at the ferry and headed straight for his own fish pond.
Although I have only been away for less than two days, I am eager to go home.
"Fish cubs, did you miss me?"
Li Quanqing opened the formation and chuckled.
What greeted him was a swarm of water arrows that almost filled the entire sky, making a "puh" sound.
Click!Click!
In a corner of the fish pond, more than twenty iron-boned crabs were trapped in a formation, waving their big claws in dissatisfaction.
Before Li Quanqing left, he forgot to lift their confinement.
"Isn't it just that I haven't been fed for two days and I'm just hungry? Is there any need to welcome me so warmly?"
The boy wiped the water stains from his face, fed the fish, and then took out the shellfish and examined them one by one.
[Full of Disdain] Moonlight Shell: "Ahhh, the water is so dirty! I swallow, I swallow, I swallow~ Purify it, sea!"
[Maturity: 9%]
[Despair] Jiaoyuebei: "I can't finish it! This job can never be finished! I have to work overtime every day, I'll just drown myself with seawater!"
[Maturity: 8%]
Is this water dirty?
Li Quanqing scooped up a handful of water, which was dark blue and green in color, and he could also see some remaining fish bait and suspicious particles.
Uh...it seems not very clean.
He looked embarrassed, but there was nothing he could do. The fish pond was so small and there were too many fish in it.
The growth environment of the Moon Clam requires that the water not be too deep and that the moon can be seen every night.
Li Quanqing took out the Stone Spirit Seal and raised the terrain, piling up the soil to form pillars that were thick at the bottom and thin at the top in the fish pond.
It looks like thirty stone lotuses are in full bloom, holding up the quiet Moon Shell and swallowing up the seawater for purification.
Click!
A newly mature iron-bone crab climbed along the reef to the top of the pillar, poking at the shells curiously, with a ball of light swaying above its head.
Li Quanqing reached down with his big hand and grabbed the crab crumb.
Bring it to you!
[Harvest an Iron Bone Crab in the Early Stage of Qi Refining, and a bottle of Iron Bone Pill as a reward! ]
