The next day, fishermen and farmers were counted at Qingfeng Dockyard.
Ye Qingling and Lei Yun from Lingxian Palace were not present, but the Nine Islands forces originally arranged for people to conduct an inventory.
However, this count shocked all fishermen and farmers.
In just half a month, more than 300 people died in the immortal sea. If we put it in the past, even if we add up to ten or twenty years, there would not have been so many deaths.
However, thinking about the harvest during this period, the fishermen and farmers also know that risks and opportunities coexist, but they are secretly determined to be cautious in the future.
…
Blackfish coral reef.
The luminous corals are glowing, the sea currents are slightly rolling, and the sea anemones and seaweed are rolling with the waves, which means that the sea surface may be raging with strong winds.
Zhang Liangyun swallowed Haifa and made a special sound of "bop, bam, bam".
After a while, the four great fools of the Heaven, Earth, and the Mysterious Sea swam over quickly.
Heitian shouted: "Young Master, your retreat time this time is very short."
Heixuan echoed: "It's only been more than a day, and I just fell asleep."
Zhang Liang said angrily: "What? Do I still have to let you have a good sleep?"
"May I?"
"Pa~"
Zhang Liang slapped Hei Xuan on the head: "Don't even think about it."
After looking at the black land and the black sea with his head shrinking, Zhang Liang said calmly: "Let's go to the locust sea area and see if there are any opportunities to forage."
The Blackfish Coral Reef occupies not a large area, and its length and breadth of more than a thousand miles is its limit.
Zhang Liang and his five men were on their way while searching for prey.
On the way, Zhang Liang found a first-class low-grade sea cucumber. After eating it, it cannot be said that it has no effect on body training. It can only be said that it has little effect and is almost useless.
After half a day, the five people arrived at the edge of the coral reef.
It is an endless seaweed jungle, with dense and numerous seaweeds, mostly green, and also decorated with brown, red and other colors. Its shapes include broad-leaf shape, willow branch shape, flake shape, arc shape, etc. The sediment on the seabed is mostly paved with broken shells and dead rocks.
At this moment, due to the wind and waves on the sea surface and the undertide on the seabed, all the seaweed is pouring in one direction most of the time. When the wind and waves stop for a while, it swings back, and so on.
Because the seaweed is slightly dense, it is difficult for Zhang Liang to see the scene a little further away.
But he knew that even though the scenery in front of him was beautiful, it was like a jungle of weeds, which obscured his vision. No one knew what kind of danger was hidden in it.
As for sea locusts, he did see some.
Some light red bugs, as thick as fingers, round and plump, smooth in color and shaped like caterpillars, are sporadically attached to some seaweed vine poles.
When Zhang Liang saw the sea locust, he thought he would feel disgusted. But the truth was exactly the opposite. He actually developed an indescribable appetite, as if he was possessed by a greedy insect and wanted to eat one.
Zhang Liang didn't need to say anything. Except for Hei Hai, the other three of the four idiots had already rushed to the nearest seaweed.
"Boo~"
"Boo~"
"Boo~"
Like sucking beans, he had swallowed seven or eight sea locusts in the blink of an eye.
"Come back, have you forgotten your mission?"
Hei Hai's face changed slightly. Although he also wanted to go up and eat, he remembered the instructions of the wise man Black Fish and always guarded the young master.
After being called by Hei Hai, the three fools returned and looked at Zhang Liang, who looked not very good-looking, and all shrank back.
Heitian said weakly: "Young Master, this sea locust is so delicious, I couldn't hold it back for a while."
Heidi and Heixuan also confessed.
Zhang Liang snorted coldly: "On the road to spiritual practice, don't indulge. If you do it again, everyone will catch 10,000 sea locusts for me. You are only allowed to look at them, but you are not allowed to eat them."
"ah?"
The four fools took a breath and thought to themselves, how could the young master be so cruel?
Zhang Liang: "Go, you four, chop down all the seaweed in front of you."
"Yes, young master."
All I saw was that four people were carrying knives, and they were chopping indiscriminately. Countless seaweeds were chopped up, and at first there were scattered sea locusts, just like floating sea locusts. Later, the number of sea locusts increased sharply and they floated everywhere.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Liang immediately grabbed one and compared it with the Insect Book, preparing to determine what kind of sea locust it was.
However, this look made Zhang Liang's head pounding.
"Is this a blood-sucking purple locust?"
According to the "Insects Classic", the blood-sucking purple locust is a rare species of sea locust, and it is a rare species of sea locust that can be advanced to the third level spiritual insect. There are only a few places within the sphere of influence of Lingxian Palace.
The characteristic of this kind of sea locust is that every time it advances, there is a color rotation. For example, the ordinary blood-sucking purple locust is light red, then the color will turn into light blue after entering the first level, and it will turn into light purple after advancing to the first-level mid-level. But when it reaches the first level of high quality, it will turn red again, but it will no longer be light red, but ordinary red. If it goes round and round, all the way to purple.
"Hahaha... If the blood-sucking purple locust can be cultivated, it will definitely become a big trump card."
"Such a large area belongs to me..."
Zhang Liang was so excited that he kept grabbing it and putting it into the spirit beast bag.
Just after Zhang Liang collected more than a thousand blood-sucking purple locusts, the four idiots rushed back one after another.
"Young Master, Young Master, help me."
"Young Master, I feel very uncomfortable."
"Young Master, these sea locusts are sucking on me."
"Young Master, I'm itchy..."
"Um?"
Zhang Liang took a closer look and saw that the four of them were covered in hundreds of blood-sucking purple locusts. One by one, they twisted around and reached out to scratch the blood-sucking purple locusts. As a result, the blood-sucking purple locusts were broken into pieces before they could be scratched off.
"do not move."
Zhang Liang stretched out his hand to grab a blood-sucking purple locust, trying to pull it away. As a result, he directly crushed the sea locust and crushed it, but he could not pull the blood-sucking purple locust off. There was still a layer of skin attached to the black sky. On the body.
"The adsorption force of this thing is indeed strong enough, but after all, it is just an ordinary bug. You four, use your spiritual energy to shock it and see."
"Bang bang bang~"
Immediately afterwards, hundreds of blood-sucking purple locusts were seen on the four people, exploding instantly.
The smell of the bait directly caused the four fools to gulp down sea water, this time even the Black Sea was no exception. Including Zhang Liang, his mouths have also been opened. If he hadn't been determined, he might have started to swallow sea water.
Looking again, although the blood-sucking purple locusts on the four fools were gone, there were still traces of the blood-sucking purple locusts adsorbing on their bodies.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Liang silently put an amulet on himself, then grabbed a sea locust and attached it to himself.
With a shock of spiritual energy, the blood-sucking purple locust shattered into pieces, but this time, it left no traces.
"really."
The function of the amulet is to form a coat of spiritual energy on the body. When attacked, these powers will resist external forces. But this blood-sucking purple locust, which has not yet entered the advanced level, is not enough to break the effect of the amulet.
Therefore, what seems to be a difficult problem to solve is actually very simple.
However, Zhang Liang saw an amulet affixed to his body, and then said: "Master Hei Ancestor has given this young master the magical power of body protection, and I will give it to you now."
"Ah! Thank you young master."
"Young Master is mighty."
"Young Master is omnipotent."
"Go ahead! Keep cutting."
Zhang Liang continued to collect blood-sucking purple locusts. The adsorption power of ordinary blood-sucking purple locusts was so strong. If he raised advanced blood-sucking purple locusts, their power would be greatly increased, and they might actually be able to suck blood from monks.
Even if it doesn't draw any blood, it's still good to make people feel unbearably itchy.
Originally, Zhang Liang had no intention of taking risks. Since there are so many blood-sucking purple locusts at the edge of the sea locust sea area, there is no need for him to run into the depths of the seaweed jungle.
One, a hundred, a thousand...
Zhang Liang caught more and more blood-sucking purple locusts, and he became more and more excited. Whether it is used to cultivate advanced blood-sucking purple locusts or to feed sea cockroaches, it is very valuable.
After all, the more bases there are, the higher the success rate of cultivating advanced spiritual insects.
Suddenly, Zhang Liang saw a light blue blood-sucking purple locust among the blood-sucking purple locusts, and he felt happy.
"First-order low-grade?"
Zhang Liang was overjoyed and was about to stretch out his hand to pinch the advanced blood-sucking purple locust. However, he saw that the blood-sucking purple locust suddenly fled and turned into a light blue light. It avoided Zhang Liang's hand and sucked it directly. on him.
"Hey, I have an amulet on my body, how can I be afraid of you?"
However, the next moment, Zhang Liang's face changed slightly. He felt a sucking force, and the place where the blood-sucking purple locust was attached felt a little itchy.
Although the amulet was still there, the protective spiritual clothes there seemed to have been pierced by the blood-sucking purple locust.
"Is this okay? Even the amulet can't stop it?"
Zhang Liang was in trouble for a moment. He could easily crush the blood-sucking purple locust, but the advanced spiritual insects were hard to find. If they were killed, they would be gone.
Breaking it off by force obviously won't work, because even if you scratch it into pieces, you may not be able to break it off.
In the end, there is only one way, and that is to let him suck it. As long as the blood-sucking purple locust eats and drinks enough, it will fall off naturally.
The only price he had to pay was a little blood and the itch he had to endure.
"Forget it, it won't die anyway. For the great insect-raising plan, it is necessary to make a little sacrifice."
Just when Zhang Liang was about to continue catching the blood-sucking purple locusts, he instinctively felt a hint of crisis, but saw that he didn't even look back, so he threw a green snake net behind him. But he himself quickly jumped out, not daring to stay where he was.
After swimming dozens of meters, I looked back and saw a black-haired sea snake entangled in a green snake net. The black-haired sea snake had three fish-like fins protruding from its back, which were as sharp as knives. With its body rolled a few times, it could easily cut into pieces the green snake net, a low-grade magic weapon.
Although he is still entangled, if he is given a few more seconds, he will be able to escape.
"First-order mid-level ferocious beast, you are the only one who wants to sneak attack on me?"
However, Zhang Liang quickly approached, took out a fish-bone battle ax in his hand, and swung it out with all his strength. Under the huge impact, he smashed the snake's head flat.
When Zhang Liang was proudly about to put away the black-haired sea snake, he saw seven or eight black shadows not far away, approaching quickly.
Those were actually seven or eight black-haired sea snakes?
"hiss!"
"Escort me, my young master is under attack. Come and protect me quickly."
