Chapter 41, Fallen Star Island

Early on the next morning, Shen Ruoyu sent Yang Zhao to the seaport. However, compared with the dock next to it that was deep into the water, this was a high platform of about ten meters.

There are five or six small rectangular wooden houses placed on the high platform, with a long metal pipe running across the small houses.

There were two tables beside the high platform, and two big men sat behind them to collect tickets.

Yang Zhaohui forgot about the busy dock next to him and asked in confusion.

"Master, shouldn't we take a boat when going to sea?"

"There are reefs near Falling Star Island, and ships cannot dock there. You can only get up there from the air."

Shen Ruoyu pointed at the two big men and said, "Hurry up and buy a ticket."

Yang Zhao went over and queued up to ask about the price.

"Go to Falling Star Island for three taels of silver per person." One of the big men replied.

This ticket is so expensive! Yang Zhao complained in his heart and paid the money obediently.

The big man gave her a wooden sign with five bars and ten. "You are in the seat five and ten."

There were many people going to Falling Star Island today, some working together in twos and threes, and a few lone wolves like Yang Zhao.

The big man sold out all the tickets in his hand, stood up and shouted loudly: "Those who have tickets, hurry in and sit according to the ticket number, and those who have not bought tickets hide under the high platform. The Xuanpeng bird is coming, and no one can be left on top. hurry up!"

Those who had tickets obediently walked in and took their numbers, and those who didn't have tickets also got off the platform.

Yang Zhao said goodbye to Shen Ruoyu and walked into the No. 5 wing.

There is no decoration here, except for the magic circle painted on the whole room. There are two rows of fixed seats, each row has seven seats, which can seat 14 people.

She found a seat and sat down. When everyone in the wing was gone, the door of the wing closed automatically.

Yang Zhao sat there quietly, listening to the chatter of the people in the carriage.

"Where is this Xuanpeng bird? Why can't I see it?"

"The Xuanpeng birds are all parked on a nearby cliff, and they take off from there every time."

"Ah! Look, the Xuanpeng bird is here!"

I saw several big birds flying in one after another from the horizon. As the distance got closer, the faces of these big birds became clearer.

It has gray-white feathers on its belly and bluish-black on its back. Apart from its larger body, it has no distinguishing features.

When the huge figure pressed down on everyone's heads, she saw the sharp eagle claws covered with golden scales.

Yang Zhao only felt a weight on his body, and then he flew up following the house.

The house flew higher and farther with the Xuanpeng bird, and the coastline gradually became invisible.

This Xuanpeng bird flew very smoothly, and the people in the house did not feel any bumps at all.

Unknown birds flew around the house, and a few even hit the wing.

Everyone praised Xuan Peng Bird for a few words, and then the topic turned to Falling Star Island.

"I heard that this meteor shower is the largest in the past 50 years. It's a good time for us to pick up more meteorites."

"What a good time this is. When there are more meteors, the danger will naturally be greater. I don't know how many people will be caught in it this time."

"So don't be greedy. When you see a meteor, run away first. Saving your life is the most important thing."

"you do not say."

"I also heard that because this meteor shower is so big, senior students from various schools will come over to join in the fun. Then our chances will be even less."

"Is this actually true? I thought others were joking at first."

"What does it have to do with us? When the time comes, stay away from these proud men. If someone doesn't like you and starts fighting with you, you won't be able to find a place to cry even if you want."

Listening to gossip and watching the sea view along the way, the journey was not boring.

"We've arrived at Falling Star Island!"

"The Xuanpeng bird is so fast?!"

Yang Zhao looked forward and saw the island. Viewed from the sky, the island was in an irregular oval shape. The vegetation on the island was not dense. It was dotted with deep pits one after another, and there was a little moon.

superficial meaning.

Suddenly, I felt my body became lighter, and the island below me became bigger and bigger.

He saw the Xuanpeng bird lightly placing the wing on a high platform and flying away without even touching the ground. Yang Zhao looked around and saw that there was also a towering cliff over there.

With the Xuanpeng bird's weight, it cannot fly at all unless it relies on the wind from a high place.

After a while, the door opened and someone stood at the door to greet everyone.

"This is Falling Star Island. All passengers can come out. Please return the passenger wooden sign in your hand to me."

Yang Zhao came out of the wing and saw a simple market in the distance. Seeing everyone walking towards the market, she followed behind.

"I heard that there are twenty-four such markets on this island. If you encounter any danger, just run to the market."

"You're talking about the past few years. This year the number of markets has increased to 30."

"Brother, you are well-informed!"

"What's wrong with this? I bought a map of Falling Star Island in advance and it's all marked on it."

Yang Zhao was shocked. She actually forgot to buy a map. It seemed she could only look for it in the market to see if it was for sale.

Since the popularity of mobile phones, maps have disappeared from her life.

She has only seen two types of maps, namely world maps and country maps.

Although this market actually looks shabby and small, there are many people doing business.

There are sellers of fresh water food, tents with tents, ready-made clothes and shoes, and four or five hotels.

In the center of a house, there is a government sign. It is used to store and replace meteorite. There is a huge wooden map of the entire island at the door. Next to it, there is a small vendor setting up a stall to sell maps.

This map costs 3 taels of silver. According to my colleagues, the price is more than twice as expensive as in Huanglong Port.

But it was not enough without a map. Everyone paid for it, and Yang Zhao also gritted his teeth and bought one.

Although this map is expensive, it is indeed marked in great detail.

It not only marked the locations of 30 markets, but also marked where there is fresh water and where there are caves on the island.

After buying the map, she didn't continue shopping, but quickly booked a room in the hotel.

There were still three days until the real day, and there would be more and more people there, and she was afraid that she would be late and not be able to get a room.

There's no way she can live outside.

The food here is much more expensive than in Huanglong Port. Most of the food here is fish and shrimp. The only cooking method is steaming and boiling, probably because you don’t want to bring in oil.

Yang Zhao had lunch in the store, and the second brother recommended her home-produced dry food.

"Sir, look at our dry food. It is hard and has no moisture at all. It is made of good grain and good fish. This small piece soaked in water is enough for you to eat a meal. If you don't want to get a bowl,

You can also break off a small piece and put it in your mouth."

Yang Zhao picked up a piece and smelled it. The smell was quite fragrant. He waved his hand and bought fifteen pieces.

The young man smiled happily and wrapped the dry food in oil paper and handed it to Yang Zhao.

"Chenghui one tael of silver."
