Chapter 839: Chasing Across the Sea
Inside the main cabin of the airship, Chen Chuan slightly separated his feet forward and backward, spread his arms, and slowly assumed a Great Blue Sky stance, while guiding himself with the Heaven and Earth Hongfu Breathing Method. In just a few breaths, large clouds of mist rose from his body.
Soon he felt a sense of difficulty. When he unfolded the posture, as he guided his own alienated tissue, it seemed as if a huge force was pulling and pressing him, and was continuously fighting against him. If he relaxed a little, the posture would collapse.
This forced him to push up with more force, but by doing so, the pressure would also increase.
But this tempering effect was exactly what he needed.
After holding on for a while, he felt his strength fading, so he retracted his stance and exhaled a hot breath.
After adjusting for a while, he tried again, and then repeated this several times.
During this process, you can feel the energy in your body being rapidly consumed, which is not much different from practicing the Great Bright Light Style.
However, the Great Blue Sky Style is used to temper the body, while the Great Bright Light Style is used to train the spirit. The two styles can cooperate with each other. Practicing one of them alone can only bring out the effect of one of them. Mr. Zhuan gave him both sets of moves in the first place, undoubtedly hoping that he could combine the two sets to use more powerful power.
However, the difficulty of practicing these two styles is undoubtedly very great. In fact, the difficulty is only secondary. The key is that it consumes a lot of energy. He estimated that if he practiced both at the same time, the energy consumption might be more than doubled.
The amount of energy he currently consumes in fighting with others is almost the same as that consumed in a meal, while the energy required for cultivation is much more than that. If he does not have the means to cut open cracks and speed up the absorption of energy from the opposite side for recovery, he will not be able to sustain such cultivation.
In fact, if he had not been outside most of the time during this period, and all the consumption on the road had been provided by the state and the company, the food and high-energy nutrients he brought with him would not be enough. It would not be an exaggeration to call them snacks.
He couldn't help but wonder if he should take on more national missions in the future to make up for the gaps and losses here.
However, as one practices more moves of the Great Blue Sky Style and the Great Bright Light Style, the consumption will probably also increase. One must go to the Intersection Area and the front end of the World Ring, as only there can sufficient supply be provided.
Another channel is to try to ask the city council for more supply. He didn't do this before because if he raised the price too high and exceeded normal needs, the city council would think he was deliberately making things difficult.
But now that he has signed the agreement, as long as the agreement is not directed at him, what he said is a reasonable demand, and the share he needs is a real need. Even if it is more, the municipal council needs to supply it. If the latter is unwilling to comply, then he can also not comply. Even if he uses various measures or even violence, it is justifiable.
After a short day's journey, the airship arrived over Red Crown Island, the destination of this trip.
This is just an ordinary island in the ocean. There is no unique scenery on the island, and the population of the entire island is only about 100,000. Fortunately, the climate is good, and it is located on the main shipping route, so the transportation is convenient. Therefore, Ocean Development Group established a port and airship anchorage here early on.
After the airship came to a steady stop at the mooring tower above, Chen Chuan walked out of the cabin and looked at the only high mountain on one side of the island.
According to the Bureau of General Affairs, the He brothers and sisters lived in a village in the mountains and had settled there only a year ago. Because they opened a fighting gym here, they had become famous on Red Crown Island and several nearby islands, and many islanders came to learn from them.
At this time, he patted Chaoming who was following him. The latter chirped, leaped out, and flapped its wings to fly high into the sky. Its bright feathers were particularly eye-catching in the sky.
After coming down from the tower, he declined the company of others and did not take a vehicle. Instead, he walked alone along the road towards the opposite mountain at a leisurely pace.
As he went along, he saw roads being built and electric poles being erected everywhere on the island.
Before coming here, he learned a little about the situation on Red Crown Island. There are not many industries on the island. In the past, it only relied on sugarcane and fruit planting, fishing and shipping to generate some income. However, most of the profits were taken away by the Ferris Wheel Company. The islanders could only maintain the most basic survival. The Ferris Wheel Company had no interest in improving the environment and the living conditions of the islanders.
After the arrival of Ocean Development Group, the situation began to change. They started to build port terminals and some infrastructure, and recruited a large number of local people. Some special positions required implants, and the company would provide some low-interest loans in advance. It also opened more than a dozen primary schools.
All students of appropriate age were forced to attend the school, and the main language taught was Dashun, the only official language allowed to be used. They were not allowed to use the foreign languages and Linax Federal Language promoted by the Ferris Wheel Company at that time.
When Chen Chuan was walking here, he found that although the mountain on the island looked high, it was not steep, and it was a gentle slope all the way.
When he passed by some village gathering places, some children who were about five or six years old were playing, but when they saw him, they all stopped and looked at him from afar. Some of them subconsciously put their dirty fingers in their mouths and sucked them.
He thought for a moment, walked into the village, asked an old man sitting in front of the door for a glass of water, asked how to get to the back, and then distributed some of the snacks and candies he had prepared before coming out to the children, causing the children to scream. After sitting for a while, he left.
After walking for another two hours, he walked up a slightly steep hillside and saw a large green plateau in front of him. He could see a village with red tiles and white walls, with about a thousand people gathered there. The houses were scattered around, and occasionally there were some embellishments on the green and yellow mountain ridges. At this moment, he could see a group of people learning fighting skills in the open space in front of the village.
They were taught by a man and a woman. One was a sturdy man who looked to be in his thirties. He had a rectangular face, was very masculine, had dark skin, and looked very reliable. He also seemed to be of a third degree, which was quite rare on an overseas island.
The other woman looked to be about 28 or 29 years old. She looked somewhat similar to the man, with short hair. She stood there with her legs straight and her back straight, looking very imposing. However, she was only at the second limit, and judging from her life field, she would not have any chance of breaking through in the future.
There were only a few young people among the trainees, mostly teenagers, and some children around ten years old. Many of them were wearing sportswear donated by Canglong Company, with the company's logo on it.
The two people had a clear division of labor, the woman taught the younger students, and the man taught the older group. It was obvious that the man was better in martial arts, but he might be more straightforward in his speech, and sometimes his voice would suddenly become louder, making some students silent. At this time, the woman would come up and say a few words to ease the atmosphere.
Chen Chuan watched from a distance and did not rush up to disturb them. Instead, he came under a tree and waited against the trunk, while Chao Ming was flying and hovering in the sky.
After a while, it seemed like a class was over, and the teenagers and children went to the side to rest, replenish water and eat some dried fruits they brought with them.
Seeing this, Chen Chuan walked forward. The man and woman had already noticed him when he came just now, and when they saw him coming, they waited there.
Although he restrained his presence and spirit, his height, which was taller than that of an ordinary person, and his movements and rhythm of walking all showed that he was a fighter.
The He siblings have been here for a year, but they rarely see fighters. Even if there are any, they are security personnel following the company's ships, usually only appearing near the docks and ports. So this time they were obviously coming for them, so they showed a hint of vigilance in their eyes.
When Chen Chuan saw the expressions of the two people, he couldn't help but think that it seemed that these two people really had not returned to Dashun in these years due to some reasons.
When He Zhilan waited for him to come closer, her round eyes suddenly widened a little. She couldn't help but take a few steps forward and greeted him: "Young man, who are you looking for?"
Chen Chuan stopped about ten meters away and said, "Mr. He, Ms. He, I came here specially to see you."
He Ruihai looked at him with a serious expression. Few people here knew about them, and they used pseudonyms on the island. But this man called out their names right away. It seemed that he had done a special investigation.
He Zhilan took a few more steps at this time. She didn't say anything, but kept looking at him, and there was a hint of excitement in her emotions. She couldn't help but turn around and said, "Brother, he..."
He Ruihai interrupted her and said, "Young man, it's too hot outside, shall we go inside and talk?"
Chen Chuan happily said yes.
He Ruihai took him back, but He Zhilan kept staring at his face along the way. She seemed to want to speak several times, but held back.
The three of them entered a two-story building under the gaze of all the students. After they invited him to sit down, they poured him a cup of tea and said, "We don't have any good tea for guests here. Please make do with this, little brother."
Chen Chuan took it and said thank you.
He Ruihai sat down on the side and asked, "Did this young man come here specifically to find us?" Seeing Chen Chuan nod, he and He Zhilan looked at each other, and then asked with some caution, "I wonder how you found this place, and why did you come to us?"
Chen Chuanshuo said: "I just came back from abroad not long ago. I just visited Senior Fang of the Wujian Sect and learned some information about the two of you from her."
"Have you met Teacher Fang?"
He Zhilan asked in surprise: "How is Teacher Fang now?"
"Wait a minute." He Ruihai stopped her from asking any more questions, looked at Chen Chuan and said in a deep voice: "Young man, you haven't answered my question yet. We haven't told Teacher Fang that we are here."
