Chapter 26

The sun sets in the west and has sunk below the sea surface, reflecting a pink color on the sea surface. Near the sea surface are clusters of flaming clouds, bringing the last light to the earth.In a small fishing village by the sea, people who had been busy all day took advantage of the current light to sort out harpoons and fishing nets. "If you don't go out for the morning glow, the sunset will travel thousands of miles. It seems that tomorrow will probably be a good day." Fishermen completely rely on the weather for their livelihood. Even if the weather is bad, even if they are offshore, fishing at sea will be unlucky. Looking at the sunset on the horizon , the faces of the fishermen in the fishing village were filled with simple smiles.Fishermen are constantly docking their boats to finish the day's work and chatting with each other about the day's harvest.

At this time, a small black shadow appeared on the sea in the distance. The black shadow quickly moved from far to near, from small to large, making the calm sea surface sparkle in the evening.It was a young man dressed in snow-white walking on the water towards the fishing village. He had shawl silver hair, and the proportions of his facial features were like exquisite works of art. He was so handsome that people couldn't take their eyes away. More importantly, the young man's eyes It seems that there is a sea of ​​stars hidden inside, making people immersed in it at first sight, as if it has strange magic power.

Gu Fang and Gu Xiaoyu are a father and daughter who depend on each other. Gu Xiaoyu's mother unfortunately died when she encountered a sea spirit beast while fishing for pearls, leaving only the father and daughter to depend on each other.Because they often go to sea, their skin has been tanned into a healthy purple-black color by the sun. Gu Fang is not yet forty this year, but the years of hard work have left traces on his face like the carving knife of time, making him look like he is over six years old. Gu Xiaoyu is an old man who is twenty-eight years old (note: twenty-eight refers to 16 years old), the age when youth blooms, but because of the heavy labor, there is rarely a smile on his face.After a hard day's work, they took their small fishing boat to the shore with their catch, preparing to return home before nightfall.

At this time, the handsome young man asked Gu Fang: Old man, where is this?

Gu Fang saw the young man coming across the sea and knew that the young man was a soul master, so he did not want to cause more trouble. Adhering to the old saying of the old man in the village that more things are worse than less things, he decided not to ask questions. Ask, don't say what you shouldn't say, this is the way for little people to survive.

Just when he was about to pretend to be mute and fool him, the daughter on the side responded quickly: "We are in Gujia Village. People in Gujia Village have been fishing for generations. They also work part-time in pearl mining and kelp cultivation. There are hundreds of people in the village. Where are the people.”

Gu Fang wanted to reprimand his daughter for interrupting, but he was afraid of offending the young and excessive soul master in front of him. After all, what Gu Fang had heard since he was a child was that it is not necessary for a soul master to kill civilians. In order to pay for their lives, some soul masters are moody and even like to kill civilians for fun. They consider themselves to be two different creatures from the civilians. Even good soul masters from the Wuhun Palace come to the village to teach the children about the awakening of the Wuhun. The condescending and trashy look at children without soul power is definitely not fake.

Gu Fang could no longer stop his daughter from speaking. He seemed to be waiting for the fate of his fate. He mumbled and did not dare to speak. His hands seemed uncomfortable wherever they were placed. He was afraid that his daughter's words would bring disaster to the whole family.

Gu Fang glanced at his daughter and found that her eyes had been fixed on the face of the boy opposite. There seemed to be light shining in her eyes. He couldn't help but sigh to himself: What girl doesn't have a child?My daughter has grown up in the blink of an eye.But my daughter, love is the most fragile thing in the world. That soul master and you are from completely different worlds. If you fall in love with him, you will be like a moth chasing a flame, eventually fluttering into the lamp and burning. Do your best.

Gu Fang looked at the young soul master opposite and thought for a while after hearing about Gujia Village. It seemed that his thinking was fruitless, and then continued to ask: "Is this the Tiandou Empire or the Star Luo Empire?" This question seemed to stump the girl. The light in the girl's eyes dimmed a little. Gu Fang was afraid that he would offend the soul master if he couldn't answer, so he said tremblingly: "Master soul master, this is the buffer zone between the Tiandou Empire and the Star Luo Empire, Lawrence Principality.”

The young man nodded with satisfaction and threw out a gold soul coin: "It's getting late. I want to stay at your place for one night. This will be considered as accommodation fee."

Gu Fang swallowed hard. You must know that this golden soul coin is equivalent to his annual income.Fishermen go to fish shops to sell fish, and after many layers of exploitation, the money they get is less than [-]%. They also have to pay heavy taxes to the nobles and Wuhun Palace every year. On weekdays, the only fish they can eat are the fish they catch and the spirits. The kelp that grows in the sea can only be bought during holidays and festivals to buy some other things to eat.

Gu Fang took the young soul master and walked on the beach for about a few hundred meters. From a distance, he saw a small fishing village hidden in the bushes by the sea, with dots of lights shining through. Although the village on the seaside was poor, , but there is no shortage of fish oil for electric lights. The orange light shines through the window, which is warm and adds full warmth to the hearts of Gu Fang and his daughter. Gu Fang showed a smile: "This is Gujia Village. If you go further That thatched hut in front of me is my home.”

Gu Fang spread a mat on the ground, gave his bed to the young man, and secretly placed the mat in the open space between the young man's and his daughter's beds.

The three of them lay on the bed and said nothing all night.This young man is Moxue who sneaked out from Magic Whale Island to travel.

Late at night, Moxue lay on the bed and delved into the infinite true meaning. Although there was no need to sleep in this state, she did not like to sleep in the open air and wronged herself.In Moxue's perception, the two people on the side were not asleep yet, so they were on guard against others. Moxue didn't need to sleep at all, and it was even less likely to sleep at this time, so he began to sense their inner thoughts with gusto.

Gu Fang lay on the straw mat and tossed and turned, thinking about how to use this precious golden soul coin, whether to keep it as a dowry for his daughter in the future, or to supplement his life now.But Gu Fang is also a little worried - will this soul master really give away the gold soul coins so generously?There are also many powerful people who kill and seize treasures. If the soul master kills his father and daughter before leaving tomorrow, the golden soul coin will also return to the opponent's hands. I heard that some people like to play with people's hearts. That's how strong people are, they give hope first and then make people fall into despair.But people are like swordsmen and fish, so Gu Fang has no choice but to wait anxiously for tomorrow to come. He can only think that if the soul master wants to kill someone tomorrow, he must use his own life to hold the young man back. His daughter fights for a chance of survival.

If Gu Fang's emotions were a combination of expectation and fear for the future, then Gu Xiaoyu's emotions were more of shame.The boys Gu Xiaoyu had seen in the fishing village were all strong and dark fishing boys, with positive and healthy smiles on their dark faces; but the boy he met today had such fair skin, although he did not smile. , but also so charming.The white clothes beat the snow, as graceful as a fairy, and with a noble temperament that Gu Xiaoyu had never seen before. He came to the sea under the afterglow of the setting sun, as if he was a god who walked directly from a fairy tale. Gu Xiaoyu felt that if this There is a Lord Poseidon in the world, so he must be like this. How could such a god who came to the world be within my reach?Looking at his dark skin and unremarkable appearance, just standing next to Him is probably a luxury.What's more, this master also gave himself and his father a gold soul coin. After experiencing the inexplicable feelings at the beginning, Gu Xiaoyu's admiration for Moxue had already turned into respect for the god, and he did not dare to Another thought of transcendence.
