Li Mu felt that he had had a very long dream, and the content of the dream could only be described as bizarre and bizarre.
It turned out that he was stuffed into an extremely huge washing machine, and then was stirred continuously as the drum rotated crazily. The nonsensical dream made Li Mu even know that he was dreaming, but he couldn't wake up no matter what.
The severe dizziness made Li Mu vomit in the dream, but the endless rolling did not stop for a moment, and in the end he passed out directly in the dream.
When he woke up again, Li Mu found that his eyes were filled with white light. He wanted to speak but found that his dry throat could no longer make any sound.
Fortunately, after a burst of noisy voices and footsteps, cool liquid poured into his mouth, suppressing the burning pain, and his vision gradually became clearer.
In addition to the shining white sun in the sky, what came into view were two dark childish faces, one boy and one girl, both of whom were no more than four or five years old.
The little girl with two sky-high braids looked at her curiously with her big eyes, while the little boy with a shaved head was yelling outside, speaking in a language that Li Mu couldn't understand.
Looking around, Li Mucai found that he was lying in a cabin similar to a ship. However, this ship was obviously different from the luxurious ship he had been on before. The wooden ship boards had been baptized by the years, and the fishing nets and utensils hanging on the side also revealed that the identity of its owner.
"It seems that I was rescued by this fishing boat. I was so lucky. I thought I was going to die in the whirlpool."
The terrifying maelstrom in the deep sea still left Li Mu with lingering fears. He was also grateful that he could survive the huge water pressure and pulling force. This was simply a miracle.
"It seems that Teacher Mu's jade token saved me again, otherwise the whole drama will really end this time."
Feeling that the jade plaque on his chest was slightly warm, Li Mu realized that the reason why he was able to survive was probably because the jade plaque's protective mechanism was triggered at the critical moment.
Thinking of this, Mubai's voice and smile couldn't help but reappear. Unexpectedly, after so long, his enlightenment teacher was still protecting him in his own way.
"Are you awake? How are you? Are you feeling particularly thirsty? Drink more water. When we found you, you must have been floating on the sea for a long time, and your skin has been dried out by the sun."
A rough voice interrupted Li Mu's thoughts, and then a shirtless bald man walked into the cabin. With his beard and dark and rosy complexion, he could tell that he had been staying at sea for a long time. A fisherman making a living.
"Run'er, Jin'er, go and ask your mother to prepare some food."
When they heard that there was food, the two children jumped out of the cabin, leaving only Li Mu and the bald man.
"Run'er and Jin'er are still young and don't speak Common Language very well. We checked you when we fished you out. You were not injured. You will get better after eating some food."
The bald man stroked his beard and said. His simple words made Li Mu, who was still a little wary, relax. He twisted his still aching shoulder and said thank you.
"Thank you for saving me. By the way, was there a little monkey beside me at that time?"
Upon hearing Li Mu's inquiry, the bald man's face suddenly twitched, and then turned into an indescribable expression.
"There is indeed a golden monkey squatting on your belly. In fact, if it hadn't kept calling for help, we wouldn't have found you. After we rescued you, we prepared some food for it, but..."
Li Mu was smiling at Xiaopi's rescue at first, but as he listened, he realized the seriousness of the problem. In addition, the bald man hesitated to speak, and he had already guessed what happened. Eighty-eight.
Following the bald man to the deck, I saw a fat monkey lying comfortably in the sun, and it still held half of the tuna in its hand, and the rest had obviously gone into its belly.
The round belly and the expression on his face made him speechless. This little guy's appetite was terrifying. Even if he took out all the fish on the boat, it probably wouldn't be enough for him. Between the teeth.
"Brother, I'm really sorry. My pet just has a big appetite. Here are thirty gold coins, which should be enough to pay for the fish it eats."
Someone was saving his life, but his "pet" ate all the fish that the person used to make a living, which made Mr. Li Mu's face turn red.
He quickly took out thirty Cangyun coins from the warehouse system. This amount was enough to pay for dozens of boats of such catches. The golden light really stunned the honest man.
"You...are you...from the Cangyun Empire?"
Li Mu originally thought that the other party's surprise was due to the large amount. After all, thirty Cangyun coins were enough for ordinary people in the Cangyun Empire to spend for a year.
But soon he sensed something was wrong from the strange look in the bald man's eyes, because there was no surprise at all because of the amount of money in his eyes, but rather complex emotions such as resistance and entanglement.
"Brother, what's wrong with you?"
Li Mu was a little confused, because Cangyun coins are one of the currencies commonly used in the immortal world. Although the Cangyun Empire's strength and status are not outstanding, the value of Cangyun coins is not high compared to other currencies, but it is definitely considered are the mainstream currencies that can be accepted.
But now when the bald man saw the Cangyun Coin, he felt as if he had seen a ghost. Not only did he not reach out to borrow it, but he even stuttered and asked where Li Mu was from.
"That's right, I am from the Cangyun Empire. I wanted to go to the South China Sea on a merchant ship. I encountered a storm on the way and I was in trouble. If I hadn't been rescued by my elder brother, I would have died at sea."
Although the other party's reaction was a bit strange, Li Mu still told him his origins and how he fell into the sea in detail, except that he omitted the part about the octopus and the sea monster.
"Do you know where this is? This is the sea area of Penglai Immortal Kingdom, and we are all Penglai people."
The bald man's words shocked Li Mu, and he instantly understood the complex meaning in his eyes. He didn't expect that he was rescued by a fishing boat from Penglai Immortal Kingdom, and just over a year ago, he personally killed this overlord of the East China Sea. The powerful country was sent to the position of the defeated party.
"Dad, the food is here. Grandma specially made tuna sushi."
Just when Li Mu didn't know how to speak, the little girl from before ran over with a large bowl of sushi, but was grabbed by the bald man and protected behind her.
"Dad, what's wrong? Didn't you say that big brother is hungry? This sushi is delicious. Auntie said that big brother should eat more so that he can recover early."
The little girl obviously hadn't understood the situation yet, but the woman holding the little boy not far away noticed her husband's worry and pulled the child behind her, keeping a distance from Li Mu.
