The West Sea is located in the south of Lingnan and in the north. It is surrounded by mountains and close to the ocean. It is a tropical area with relatively high temperatures. There are many large river basins and many high mountains, but most ordinary people live a self-sufficient life by fishing and hunting.
Penglaizhou is a moving island that occasionally floats from the sea, and there is no trace of it. Only experienced people can make rough calculations based on the rise and fall of the tide. According to legend, Penglaizhou is a fairy mountain on the sea that drifted here. There are countless exotic flowers and plants on the island that no one has picked, and there are countless treasures for you to choose from. Every chance encounter is a gluttonous feast that treasure hunters dream of, triggering treasure hunts from all over the world, and explorers flocking here.
A few days later, my senior brother, junior sister, and I came to this small fishing village with only a few dozen people. The fishing village relies on a rocky hill and is close to the vast sea. Every morning, fishing boats of all sizes in the village set sail to the sea in the morning glow, and before sunset, they return one after another loaded with fresh seafood.
Because we are not used to the hot and humid climate here, we chose to live from top to bottom, scattered in several families on the mountain. We sent one person out every day to explore the situation among the fishermen going out to sea, and then devise countermeasures. We don’t know when Penglaizhou will appear. All we can do now is wait, wait for Penglaizhou to appear, wait and maybe get a share of this opportunity.
On this day, it was my turn to go on duty and go out to investigate the situation. I packed up my equipment early and set off down the mountain. When I went out and turned right, there was a winding path that stretched down the mountain. I followed the path down the mountain, passed through the open fields, and came to a remote corner. There is a small wild lotus pond at the corner of the road. There are only a few wild lotus plants visible in the pond, growing quietly. At this time, there was a slight abnormal sound in the pond. I took a closer look and saw that a wild lotus was blooming slowly. The stamens looked like a shining fish belly, and the receptacle formed by two fish tentacles flashed with golden light.
"This is the golden carp that has matured and been born."
I was shocked and overjoyed and walked over. Just as I was about to pick it off, a shout suddenly sounded in my ears,
"Let go!"
I couldn't help but stop. A strange fragrance floated by, and a bright object rushed toward me. I hugged it instinctively. While my fingertips hurt slightly, a stream of information instantly flowed into my mind. This... turned out to be recognition. The Lord succeeds. Holding it in my arms, I was so surprised that I couldn't think, so I could only move forward.
In the grass on both sides of the road, in the groves passing by, and on the leafy trees, many strange people and strangers came to smell the fragrance. Relying on the ability to be invisible for a long time, one person moved forward with a knife and followed closely. Suddenly he jumped up and flew into the air, the sword flashed by, and I closed my eyes tightly in fear. After a cry of pain, what came into view was the follower whose body was missing, corpses scattered on the ground, and the gloomy country road. Walking forward along the path, when I finally entered a dilapidated hut, I suddenly felt a light touch on my hand and the golden carp disappeared. There was only a beautiful young man sitting on the ground in the corner of the room complaining:
"It was so dangerous, so dangerous, I almost couldn't take it. I couldn't help at all!"
As he spoke, he cleaned up the blood stains on his body. I stared blankly, not daring to move, at a loss.
