Half a year later, a huge fully loaded transport ship departed from the "Moby Dick Port", carrying nearly 4,000 passengers and piles of cargo. The ship will travel along the Sunda direction through the vast "ice and snow forest" .
Passing through more than 80 servant towns, all the way to the foot of the "Sky Dome Glacier", and then back to the "Moby Dick Port", the route is long and the voyage lasted more than four months.
A transport ship like this will set sail from "Beluga Port" every few days, in all directions, but the route and stopping points are fixed. With "Beluga Port" as the center, they will be scattered in the vast "ice and snow forest" Thousands of servant towns in every corner are connected together.
A large amount of materials collected from the vast snow forests and caves are also continuously transported back to the "Beluga Port". This type of transport ship is called "helper cargo ship", and there are more than two hundred ships in total.
All are operated by the "Winter Water Alliance", and rides and cargo are very cheap. Each docking point, which is a servant town, is called a stop. Each "helper cargo ship" has a fixed route, passing through dozens or more. Hundreds of stations and more than 40 different routes have been opened.
The hovering time of each stop of the "Helper Cargo Ship" ranges from a quarter of an hour to several hours. The fare is equal to the distance. An ordinary passenger only charges one low-level spiritual stone per stop.
Those traveling with a large amount of cargo will need to pay additional cargo tickets, and VIPs who enjoy separate cabins on the upper floors will also need to pay additional accommodation fees.
For Yinhu, Liu Yu, and Xuanshan, if they took the ferry to the fifty-sixth station "Fat Pig Collar", each person's ticket would cost only fifty-six low-level spirit stones.
However, the three of them stayed in separate cabins on the upper floor, and they were charged an additional room fee of five low-level spiritual stones per day. The ticket for each person on this trip was two hundred low-level spiritual stones.
"big big big"
"Small, small, small"
…
The casino at the bottom of the cabin was bustling with people, and there were waves of people shouting and shouting!
The long voyage was boring. More than half of the passengers on the cargo ship gathered in the spacious casino hall on the ground floor all day long, playing dice, Pai Gow and other items. The waiters shuttled back and forth among the many gamblers carrying drinks, cakes, tobacco and other items.
"Damn! It's the little one again!" Xuanshan's eyes were red and he couldn't help but yelled. Today's luck is really bad. If you press the big one, you will get the small one. If you press the small one, you will get the big one. He has lost nearly 10,000 low-level spiritual stones in half a day, and his pocket is empty. .
"Everyone buy it and leave!" the dealer shouted loudly while shaking the dice.
Xuanshan listened carefully to the sound of the dice and the dice cup colliding, but the dice and the dice cup were both special magic weapons secretly made from the bones of spiritual beasts. Not only could they isolate spiritual consciousness from detection, but they also produced special noises, confusing the audience and making it difficult to hear at all. No clues.
Xuanshan gritted his teeth and put the last two thousand spirit tickets in his hand into the big one again. He didn't believe that he could still play the small one.
"One, three, four, small!" The dice cup opened, and as the dealer shouted, Xuanshan couldn't help but look ashen.
"Hey!" Xuanshan sighed and walked out of the casino slowly and reluctantly. Life was really tight these days, and life without the spirit stone was really hard!
"Xuanshan" is a direct descendant of the Tuoba family. When he was practicing in the sect, he was never short of spiritual stones. The journey to this northern land was long, and the family would only ask merchant ships to send spiritual stones every long period of time.
During daily practice, I sometimes rely on my master "Xuan Bei" for support. I finally saved some spiritual stones and wanted to try my luck, but I always lost everything.
"Fellow Daoist Yinhu is here too!" Xuanshan came to his junior brother Liu Yu's room to ask for a cup of tea. When he entered the room, he saw his junior brother Liu Yu and Yinhu were drinking tea and chatting. He sat down and poured himself a cup.
"Fellow Taoist lost again?" Yinhu said with a smile when he saw Xuanshan's dejected look.
"You're so lucky!" Xuanshan couldn't help but shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Senior brother, if you're not lucky, don't go to those smoky places! Uncle Xuanbei won't let you touch them either, senior brother, you..." Liu Yu frowned and couldn't help but persuade.
"Okay, just play occasionally! Junior brother, you can't tell Master about his old man when you go back!" Xuanshan interrupted impatiently.
Master, let it go and just stare at him. After finally going out, this junior brother Xuanyu is still saying it in his ears every day. It's really annoying. He doesn't lose much. It's true!
"By the way! Fellow Taoist Silver Fox, how long will it take to arrive!" Xuanshan asked irritably.
"Almost! There are still three stops, and we will arrive in about two days!" Silver Fox replied with a smile.
"That's good, help kill the two "fire pythons" as soon as possible so that you can go back earlier." Xuanshan stuffed a few pastries into his mouth and shouted, thinking that he would get the spirit stone earlier. It’s been a while since I went to the “Arena” to try my luck.
Three months ago, Huang Shengzong's construction materials in the shipyard warehouse were exhausted, so Liu Yu and Xuan Yu could take a good rest for a while, which was very relaxing.
Although the second batch of three transporting spiritual ships carrying various spiritual building materials has set off from the sect, the journey is far away and they will not be able to reach the "White Whale Port" for a while.
Liu Yu wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to make a batch of spiritual talismans and earn more spiritual stones. Now Liu Yu has mastered several fourth-grade spiritual talismans. In addition, the market demand for spiritual talismans in "Beluga Port" is huge, so he supervises the work every month. Painting talismans can earn nearly 60,000 low-level spiritual stones.
It may seem like a lot, but apart from purchasing the elixirs needed for daily practice, subtracting "Xiao Bai's" rations, and sometimes handing in some spiritual talismans and completing servant tasks, after a month, I can't save more than a few spiritual stones.
Over the years, Liu Yu has been planning carefully. A piece of spiritual stone would like to be broken into two flowers, and life is very tight.
There is no need to go to the shipyard to supervise work, and he can draw more talismans every day. Although he works in the shipyard to supervise work, Liu Yu is also arranged to visit the warehouse most of the time, and he can also find time to make talismans.
But there are always some trivial matters that delay him, making him unable to calm down. The quality and quantity of the talismans will naturally be affected.
Not hiding in his residence in the yard of the shipyard, Liu Yu devoted himself to drawing the magic talisman for nearly two months, until the "Silver Fox" came to the door and said that he had something to ask Liu Yu for help, and asked Liu Yu if he was willing?
It is said that a "helper village" that supplies goods to his store discovered a small amount of "Red Flame Crystal" ore in an underground cave in the snow forest.
"Red Flame Crystal" is a fifth-level fire-type spiritual crystal. It is an excellent spiritual material for refining weapons and is very expensive. This can be regarded as a small fortune for the "Servant Village".
However, there is a pool of magma on the cave wall where the "Red Flame Crystal" ore was discovered. There are actually two adult fifth-level ferocious beasts "Fire Magma Python" entrenched in it, which cannot be approached at all.
These two "Fire Slurry Pythons" were huge in size, and each one was equivalent to the cultivation level of the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. The "Servant Village" tried to attack once, and lost more than a dozen people at once, and all of them fell into the mouth of the giant python. In the end, they could only Give up.
Obviously, relying on the strength of the "Merchant Village" alone, there was nothing they could do with these two "fire pythons", so they had no choice but to ask for help, and they found the "Silver Fox".
Let "Silver Fox" help find a few foundation-building helpers to kill these two "fire pythons". The reward will be 100,000 low-level spiritual stones each.
Originally, Liu Yu didn't want to get involved. If he had this time, he might as well draw a few more talismans, which would earn him a lot of money. He could also practice his talisman skills and increase the success rate of the talismans.
However, he found a collection task with a generous reward in the "Helper's Union". The collected item happened to be the "Fire Python" snake gall. The reward was 30,000 outer door contribution points for one snake gall. Liu Yu thought about it for a day or two and agreed to the matter. .
However, Liu Yu requested that if he successfully kills these two "fire pythons", the two snake gallbladders will be his and the spirit stones will not be taken away. The "Silver Fox" and this so-called "help village" obviously have more than just a supply relationship. The caller agreed to Liu Yu's request.
After his senior brother "Xuan Shan" found out about this, he also followed him. Apparently he was short of money and wanted to earn some spiritual stones.
Originally, "Silver Fox" also called "Ren Yuanjing" from Lingbing Palace, but before departure, Sima Su had other important matters, and in the end, only "Silver Fox", Xuan Shan, and Liu Yu came.
