Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 80: Buying a boat


Dock.

Various ships, large and small animal vehicles.

There is an endless stream of people coming and going.

A huge bull demon dragged an equally huge carriage close to the dock.

On the roof of the carriage, a fat and big spider lay.

Erhu took out the newly bought long knife, cut the spider silk on the door, knocked on the door and said: "Boss, Jieshui Lake has arrived."

The car door was pushed open, and a few white spider legs stretched out first.

Three tabletop-sized white-legged spider monsters crawled out.

The last segment of the spider's legs is like a sharp sword, inserted deeply into the board and crawling towards the roof of the car.

Dahan and Lao Hantou came out together.

They jumped out of the carriage in unison, frowned, and cleaned up the cobwebs on their bodies.

Then Dian Si'er came out, stood on the shaft of the car with a big belly, and cleaned up the hanging cobwebs.

Lu Tong finally came out, stretched and arranged:

"Dahan, go find an inn."

"Erhu, go to the place where the boats are sold and ask about it."

Then a piece of yellow paper was thrown out.

The yellow paper fell to the ground and turned into a little man, raising his hands to hold it up.

Lu Tong got off the bullock cart and walked to the edge of the pier.

Jieshui Lake, big lake.

No margins visible.

Like a vast land, the mountains, rivers, grass and trees on it have all been smoothed and dyed blue.

Blue as jade, smooth as a mirror.

Lu Tong picked up a straw from the side and threw it into the lake.

The straw, which is more than a foot long, is slowly submerged under the water.

After a few breaths, it felt like being cut by a sharp knife.

The straw was split in two, and the break was exactly the same as the cut mark of the sword.

Cut the water, the undercurrent in the water is like a sword.

Ordinary small undercurrents have little impact on the monks.

However, if it encounters a huge undercurrent group, even a magic weapon-level ship will be cut into a pile of fragments.

"Master, the lake is very dangerous."

Dian Si'er learns swordsmanship every day.

In her eyes, it was not that the straw was cut off by the current, but that there were countless swords hidden under the lake.

Lu Tong looked into the distance and murmured: "Danger? If it's not dangerous, why would we have something to eat in one bite?"

"Boss!"

Erhu ran over panting, out of breath, and said: "One ship, one ship, sold cheaply! Special, cheap!"

Lu Tong looked at him and stood there waiting quietly.

Erhu took a few deep breaths and hurriedly said: "Boss, leave quickly! It will be too late and someone else will take it away!"

Lu Tong remained still, took out a jar of sake, threw it over and said: "Drink some first, and then speak slowly after drinking."

Erhu took two sips, wiped the corners of his mouth, and said: "A fishing boat is sold cheaply. The cheapest other boats cost over a thousand taels, but this fishing boat only costs eight hundred taels!"

Lu Tong asked: "Is it so much cheaper?"

"Yes! There are so many people around. If you don't go, you will be robbed!"

Lu Tong smiled and shook his head and said: "I encountered such a good thing when I first came here. Let's go and have a look."

Erhu immediately put away the wine jar and trotted to lead the way.

……

"Boss, the ship is still there!"

The two tigers wore starch armor and pushed away the monks and monsters blocking the way, opening a passage.

Lu Tong walked over.

I saw a seven-foot-long fishing boat parked on the shore.

At the stern of the ship, there is a lion's head made of iron that is 10 feet high.

The lion's mouth is round, and inside is a large ball of fishing nets.

The boat is not big, but it is equipped with fishing tools.

Lu Tong did enough homework before coming and had a rough estimate of the price of the ship.

Eight hundred taels?

If you take it apart, it will cost more than this.

"Who is the owner of the ship?"

A monk leaning on the cable stared at Lu Tong, then looked at several people around him, then stood up and said: "I am!"

Lu Tong looked at the monks around him one by one and asked, "How much does this ship cost?"

"One price, eight hundred taels!"

"This price includes everything on the boat?"

Eight hundred taels buy a fishing boat.

It's not even close to buying a boat hull.

"Yes, after paying the money, the whole boat is yours."

"Is it convenient to go up and have a look?"

"Please."

Lu Tong jumped onto the fishing boat.

The tiger's claws clung to the deck, leaving no trace.

The finest shipbuilding wood is harder than iron.

He walked to the stern of the boat, put one hand on the lion's head, and poured mana into it.

The entire lion head is under control, and its mana is wrapped in a ball of fishing net, ready to be thrown out at any time.

Lu Tong nodded and stuck his head out to look at the bottom of the boat.

At the bottom of the boat, the foot-long "fins" are slowly moving.

The fin is the most important part of a boat.

Without it to break the undercurrent, no matter how solid the materials are, they will sink sooner or later under the impact every moment.

The fins of this fishing boat are also very intact.

Lu Tong looked at them one by one, including the ship building, warehouse, keel, furnace cabin and so on.

Return to the shore.

He nodded and said: "The boat is not bad."

"Of course, we just came back from fishing. If we buy it, we are guaranteed to make back our money within three years!"

Lu Tong nodded and said with a smile: "It's all good. If you really want to sell it, go ask the owner of the boat to come over."

"What?"

The monk who claimed to be the owner of the boat was stunned.

Lu Tong pointed to the clothes on his body and said, "The clothes are too shabby. Are you a fisherman?"

The "ship owner"'s face darkened.

At this time, a capable monk stood up and said: "Fellow Taoist, we are indeed not the owners of the ship, but we can make the decision on this ship."

Lu Tong swept around the monks.

Of the dozen or so people, at least half should be accomplices.

"The stolen black ship?"

"No, how is it possible? No one dares to bring the black ship here."

There is no trace of fighting on the ship.

Lu Tong didn't think it was a black ship, and then asked: "What is it if it's not a black ship? Selling it so cheaply, there are some problems, let's just say it."

The monks looked at each other.

Finally, the capable monk stood up and said: "We are fishermen on the boat. The owner of the boat owed us wages, so he mortgaged the boat to us."

After speaking, the older monk next to him took out a piece of crumpled yellow paper.

Lu Tong took it and took a look.

It says:

"The fierce lion fishing boat was mortgaged to Hu Weiguang, Hu Weichao and others at a discount of six hundred taels."

"Shark in the river."

Lu Tong returned the paper ~IndoMTL.com~ and asked: "Who is the shark?"

"The younger brother of Haishasha."

A young man replied directly.

The monk next to him slapped his hand and scolded in a low voice: "Talk too much!"

Lu Tong shook his head and said: "No wonder no one dares to buy your boat. River sharks and sea sharks, they are quite famous here?"

Several people sighed at the same time and looked at another boat not far away.

Lu Tong followed their gaze and looked over.

A fishing boat nearly ten feet long is obviously much more upscale than this "fierce lion".

The dark silver hull floats on the water, like a fierce monster, lazily basking in the sun.

Under the water, the fins of the boat like crab legs moved rapidly.

Crush the undercurrent and stir up tiny splashes of water.

On the bow of the boat, two very burly monks were looking at this place.

Lu Tong withdrew his gaze and asked: "Is that the sea shark or the river shark?"

"Yes."

A group of men all became listless.

Lu Tong shook his head, turned and left.

"Hey, if you want to buy it, I'll give you six hundred taels!"

"Five hundred taels?"

Lu Tong ignored it, walked some distance away, and asked: "Si'er, what do you think?"

"It's not worth it. Although the boat is cheap, it will offend two powerful monks. After buying it, if you leave the dock, the boat will definitely catch up."

Lu Tong nodded and asked: "Can you beat me?"

"It's not worth fighting, the ship is too broken."

"No, I'm talking about that one."

Lu Tong looked back.

Under the sun, the lake surface shines golden.

The ten-foot-long dark silver giant beast lies on the water, and it becomes more and more charming the more you look at it.
