At noon the next day, Shi Jiu was eating and drinking in the restaurant. At the same time, he was also consciously or unconsciously listening to the conversations and discussions of the people at the nearby tables.
"Have you heard? Fire Fist Sect, Shuitian Pavilion and other sects are recruiting people who know the nature of water to go to Yuxin Island to collect the Yuxin Pearl." At this time, a person at the next table said to the people drinking together. .
"Of course I know. It's this time of year when various sects recruit a large number of people to go to Yuxin Island to collect Yuxin Pearls. By the way, I heard that the money given by each sect this year has been increased by 30%. It is estimated that many people will go." Another person said.
"More? Are you kidding me? There will be fewer people this year." Someone else interrupted.
"How is that possible? It doesn't make sense to give more money but less people." The person before asked.
"Have you forgotten? Did you collect Yu Xinzhu last year?"
"I remembered that last year, a sea beast appeared on the bottom of Yuxin Island and ate many people. In the end, it was the elders of the major sects who joined forces to kill the sea beast on the bottom of the sea. Otherwise, he might have died. Many people." At this time, one person remembered what happened on Yuxin Island last year, so he said it, and then shocked the other two.
"Ah, yes, I remembered it too. I still remember that many families cried loudly and went to the gates of various factions to complain. In the end, there was nothing they could do, and each faction also lost a lot of money."
"If you put it this way, it is true that not many people will go there. After all, life is important. No matter how much money you have, you have to spend it with your life."
"That's right, I don't plan to go anyway, what about you?"
"Of course I won't go. It would be great if we can drink and chat here now. Why go there and waste our lives?"
"Yeah, let's not talk about this anymore. Let me continue drinking."
…
"Yu Xinzhu?" Shi Jiu murmured to himself, "What is that thing? Sects such as Fire Fist Sect and Shuitian Pavilion have to spend money to recruit people to collect it. I think it must be valuable."
Not long after, several people at the next table finished drinking and left.
Then, Shi Jiu called over the waiter who was cleaning the dishes, and asked: "I just heard from the next table that sects like the Fire Fist Sect are recruiting people to go to Yuxin Island to collect the Yuxin Pearl. What is going on?"
"Oh, sir, you are talking about Yu Xinzhu. We all in Yuanye City know this. There is a small island in the Gulan Sea south of Yuanye City called Yuxin Island. At this time of year, there is a small island in Yuxin Island. As well as the Yuxin clams under the nearby seabed, they will start to mate with their shells, and you can collect the Yuxin beads at this time." The waiter said directly, because Shi Jiu has lived here for several days, he is a big customer of the restaurant, and he is generous, so The waiter also knew everything.
"Is the Yu Xinzhu valuable? Can it attract so many sects?" Shi Jiu then asked again.
"Maybe. I seem to have heard others say that Yu Xinzhu seems to be of great use to those who practice. I don't know about the rest."
"Okay, I get it, you go ahead and do your work." Shi Jiu dismissed the waiter and continued drinking.
Half an hour later, Shi Jiu was walking on the street, walking forward while shopping.
After a while, Shi Jiu saw a bunch of people talking in front of a notice board, so he walked over and looked at the notice.
This was a recruitment notice, and it was talking about what Shi Jiu had heard before about various factions recruiting people to go to Yuxin Island to collect the Yuxin Pearl.
Shi Jiu didn't stay long, and then returned to the inn and entered his room.
"It seems that I have to go to Yuxin Island. It's time to collect interest from the Fire Fist Sect and Shuitian Pavilion first." After Shi Jiu made up his mind, he closed his eyes, and then in his mind Hai Zhong practiced the Lost Dream Mind Technique and improved his Dream Heart Lotus.
The next morning, Shi Jiu came to a teahouse not far from the south gate of Yuanye City to drink tea.
Today is the time for each faction and the people they have recruited to go to Yuxin Island. The gathering point is at the South City Gate.
Shi Jiu was sitting in front of the window on the second floor, drinking tea and looking at the city gate not far away. At this time, a large number of people had gathered near the city gate, and the flags of various factions were floating in the air at the city gate. The three big flags in the middle were Fire Fist Gate, Shuntian Escort Bureau and Shuitian Pavilion.
"Why didn't you see the people and the flag of Fengbaozhai?" Shi Jiu was slightly surprised, and then he felt relieved.
Compared with the other three sects, Fengbaozhai should be the richest force, and their branches are all over the Youlong Continent. The most indispensable thing is money and treasures. Most of them look down on Yu Xinzhu or think that Yu Xinzhu is not worth their time. Go collect.
"Forget it about Shuntian Escort Bureau. Fire Fist Sect and Shuitian Pavilion will definitely make you pay a lot of blood this time. If you dare to kill me in Moluo Cave, you must be prepared to bear my wrath." Looking at it. Not far away were the Fire Fist Gate and the banner of Shuitian Pavilion. A cold light flashed in Shi Jiu's eyes, and then disappeared without a trace.
An hour later, many people arrived at the gathering point of each faction.
"It seems that there are still many people who want to fight for money. It is the same whether it is the earth before death or the underworld today. People die for money and birds die for food. This principle remains unchanged through the ages." Shi Jiu still looked at it silently. Ahead, I feel something in my heart.
Soon after, Shuntian Escort Bureau, Fire Fist Gate and Shuitian Pavilion took the lead and walked out of the city gate and set off for Yuxin Island.
Looking at the team setting off in front of him, Shi Jiu suddenly thought of a similar scene that happened in Tianyou City before. At that time, various factions in Tianyou City also recruited people to mine meteorite copper in Splashing Soul Cave. At that time, Shi Jiu also signed up to accompany them. The team went together, and later met the Great Red Sword Emperor in the Splashing Soul Cave.
Thinking of this, Shi Jiu felt depressed unconsciously.
Now that he had fulfilled his long-cherished wish for the Great Red Sword Emperor, it was logically a matter worth being happy about, but Shi Jiu just couldn't be happy. Instead, he felt depressed and deeply reluctant to give up.
Although he and the Great Red Sword Emperor didn't get along for a long time, only a few months, the two of them also unknowingly established a special relationship. To Shi Jiu, the Great Red Sword Emperor was like an elder and teacher, caring and teaching him, making Shi Jiu feel warm even if he quarreled. Now that the other party is no longer around, Shi Jiu has been in a low mood for many days.
"Oh, why did it happen again? I promised to cheer up." Shi Jiu was a little annoyed, but after a while he calmed down.
Seeing the teams from each faction leaving one by one and disappearing outside the city gate, Shi Jiu did not follow them immediately, but planned to go to Yuxin Island tomorrow.
Because he has already found out that today the various factions are just stationed on Yuxin Island in advance, and will not go to the sea to collect Yuxin Pearls tomorrow or the next day.
On the morning of the third day, Shi Jiu mounted a fast horse and galloped towards Yuxin Island.
Near noon, Shi Jiu arrived at Gulan Beach.
Standing on the beach, Shi Jiu looked in the direction of Yuxin Island. The weather today was good and cloudless. There were many ships sailing on the sea, and they were all heading in the same direction. They must be heading to Yuxin Island.
Shi Jiu did not set off immediately, but planned to wait until evening before setting off. He did not want to go by boat because all the boats going to Yuxin Island were booked by various factions. In order to reduce unnecessary trouble, Shi Jiu decided to fly over.
After four or five o'clock in the afternoon, Shi Jiu decided not to wait any longer, unfolded the flying wings behind him, and flew into the air with a single flutter. After determining the direction, he immediately flapped the wings behind him and galloped in the direction of Yuxin Island. And go.
Now there are no ships visible on the sea, and they have basically arrived at Yuxin Island, but Shi Jiu is still flying carefully close to the sea, not wanting to attract other people's attention.
After about twenty minutes of flying, several ships appeared on the sea ahead, and an island appeared in front of Shi Jiu's eyes.
"That should be Yuxin Island."
Looking at the islands and ships in front of him, Shi Jiu did not continue flying in a straight line. Instead, he made a big bend close to the sea level and flew to the other side of Yuxin Island in fifteen minutes.
After landing on the island, Shi Jiu quickly ran into the woods, and then quickly headed towards the other side of the island.
Yuxin Island is not big. Ten minutes later, Shi Jiu arrived at the other side of the island. He then hid behind a huge rock and looked at the various factions camped not far ahead.
At this time, the sky was gradually getting darker, lights were raised at each camp, and people were hurriedly moving in front of them.
"Everyone, please be more prompt. The elders have said that today is the day to go to the cave and the sea. After the sky is completely dark, you can go collect Yu Xin Beads." Not far from the huge stone hidden by Shi Jiu, a middle school student The young man shouted loudly to the passing crowd.
Hearing the shouts of the middle-aged man, the people passing by moved faster. Some were carrying objects, while others were doing warm-up exercises before going into the sea, and everyone was gearing up.
Shi Jiu turned his head and looked at the Fire Fist Gate and Shuitian Pavilion's stations further away. At this time, his consciousness also followed his gaze to the stations of those two factions.
At this time, an old man walked out of the tent where the Fire Fist Gate was stationed, and then said sternly to the crowd in front: "There is still half an hour at most. Everyone, please go down and collect Yu Xin Beads."
After the old man finished speaking, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then their hands moved faster.
Shi Jiu, who was hiding behind the boulder, frowned, "He is actually the leader of the Fire Fist Sect. It's not like enemies never get together. Elder Huo Ren, we meet again, but this time it won't be like last time. I want your Fire Fist Sect to give you a lot of blood."
The old man stationed at the Fire Fist Sect to lecture was none other than Elder Huo Ren, who had once blocked Shi Jiu. That time, Shi Jiu fought a few moves with the opponent, and finally escaped from the opponent's pursuit with the help of the Great Red Sword Emperor. Now, Seeing each other again, Shi Jiu would naturally have to avenge him last time, and looting the Yu Xin Beads collected by the other party was the best way.
