The waves washed up on the beach and filled up a sand pit. At this time, the two of them had left the beach, leaving only two lines of footprints.
"Master, where are we going?"
Reina said what the Demon King had heard countless times. The Demon King was carrying the magical net, and there was a yellow cat with white stripes in front of them. At this time, they had returned to the city, walking on a street covered with red stone bricks.
on the small road.
"Go sell fish."
The devil replied.
The two of them followed Mi Keji all the way, and Mi Keji smelled the smell of fish and found the market here.
There are wooden signs hanging high on both sides of the road. The patterns on the signs are constantly moving as if they are alive, repeating the same action.
The market in the afternoon was relatively calm, with not many people coming and going. The vendors were dozing in their stalls, and perhaps the most active ones were flies and stray cats.
Most of the markets here sell fish, and even at the vegetable stalls you can see one or two fish, so the fishy smell permeates the entire market.
The two of them were walking in the market, looking around curiously, like country people entering the city. Even the devil was curious. The fruits and vegetables sold here were all new to him. Some were square and some were covered in dirt.
There are thorns, some have tongue-like leaves, and there are even vegetables that look like human hands, and they can also move. I can’t believe that people here dare to eat such things.
The Demon King turned his head and suddenly saw the shop he was looking for, a fish stall.
The stall selling fish was naturally not very clean. A big fish head was placed upside down on the chopping board, and the fish blood and scales on the ground flowed into the drainage ditch. The fishy smell was very strong.
"Buying fish? I guess not, are you here to sell fish?"
The stall owner was a middle-aged man wearing waterproof gloves and a black apron with fish blood. After seeing the two of them, he asked with a tired look on his face.
The Demon King nodded and lowered the fishing net behind his back.
"Still alive."
He said calmly, meaning the price should be higher.
When the fish shop owner saw his net, his brows suddenly went up to the sky, and he said with a curious look on his face: "Hey, what kind of net is this? Is it a new product? Where did you buy it?"
The Demon King ignored him. You must know that this net is a unique prop made by himself.
"No, this is my own magic."
He gave up the other party's intention to buy the Internet.
"Well, your magic is really powerful. Let me see, the fish you caught are quite mixed. Most of them are worthless goods."
The other party could tell at a glance that the two of them were novices who didn't know how to fish, and some of the fish they sold were trash fish that the experienced fishermen didn't like.
"These are pretty good. Let's take it this way. I'll pay you 470 Ophiocoins and take them all together."
The boss said.
The Demon King was silent. Converted into union currency, this net cost about one hundred and eighty yuan. The fish in this net weighed at least forty kilograms, so it was definitely more than this amount of money.
"five hundred."
The Demon King said calmly.
"This... okay, for the sake of it's still fresh."
The boss said so.
However, the Demon King was sure that he must be snickering secretly.
He took out several boxes, one without water and one with water, and put fish in them respectively. The devil paid attention to some to see which fish were valuable.
Reina helped catch the fish. She reluctantly looked at the ugly fish with buck teeth, but when she changed hands, the fish shop owner threw it into a box without water.
"Hey~"
She sighed softly, and then left the smelly market with her master.
In the afternoon, the two of them walked aimlessly in the city. The quiet afternoon was lazy, with few pedestrians and yawning cats lying on the walls. Walking in the streets also made people feel sleepy.
The feeling of sleeping.
The two came to the food street. Although there were more pedestrians here, it was still deserted. It was obviously a beach city, but it was so not lively.
They wandered around for an afternoon, almost all over the city. At this time, they arrived at the port.
"Master, where are we going?"
Rena asked a little tiredly.
The Demon King did not answer. He looked towards the sea level. The setting sun reflected the sea surface and it was difficult to distinguish the sky from the earth. Only the seagull could tell people the answer.
It should be time for the fishermen to come back.
"Go meet the person who offered the reward."
The devil said.
…
There are countless fishing boats at the port, and they are arranged unevenly on the shore. At this time, there is a dilapidated boat in the corner. Strangely, this fishing boat has special treatment.
The ships gave up a large space and would rather squeeze together than get close to it.
The open space in front of the fishing boat is where fishermen dry their nets. At this time, a slightly hunchbacked old man is busy spreading the fishing nets on the rack.
He was a bit thin, wearing a faded blue jumpsuit, a yellowed white shirt full of old stains, an old wooden pipe in his mouth, and a beard as messy as a bird's nest.
"Do you know anyone named Guajama?"
A strange voice suddenly came from behind him, it was the voice of a young man. The old man paused, chose to ignore the voice, and continued to do his work.
"Master, he seems to be deaf."
Another voice came, this time a girl's.
"Who is deaf! Didn't you see that I was busy!"
The old man suddenly turned around and cursed at the two of them. In front of him were two strange combinations, a handsome man and a little blond girl.
Judging from the color of their hair, they probably don't have a father-daughter relationship, but if they were a couple, that would be too bad.
After Reina was yelled at, she immediately hid behind her master.
The old man had the words "Don't bother me" written on his face, and then he turned around and started doing his own work.
"I'm from the Adventurer's Guild. I accepted a reward today to help someone find a fish." The Demon King said to the old man.
What responded to him was the roar of the waves.
The air froze for a minute. The Demon King looked at the old man silently, Reina looked at the master strangely, and the cat Mickey yawned boredly.
"Where's the fish?"
The old man suddenly said this.
"The fish depicted on the reward is too crude, so I want to hear the person who offered the reward describe what the fish looks like."
"Hmph! You are smart. If you dare to buy a few stinky fish from the seafood market and try to deal with me, I guarantee that you will have an intimate kiss with the rotten fish intestines tomorrow! Just like those so-called adventurers before.
!" The old man turned back angrily. Of course, he had no reason to be angry with the two of them.
"So, you are Guajama."
"Otherwise."
The old man said unceremoniously that he was completely a stubborn and irritable old man who was difficult to get along with.
"So can you tell me what the fish you lost looks like?"
"Hoho! That fish I lost is amazing. It's three meters long, its body is covered with black fish scales, and there's a row of shark fins on its back that are sharper than a sword. Its eyes can shine in the dark seabed.
It can swallow a whole boat in one bite." The old man stated to the two of them with an exaggerated tone and expression, and while talking, he approached them.
"Moreover, it will only appear in storms, and only warriors who truly dare to conquer the sea can see it!" At this time, the old man of Guahama was less than a hand away from the devil, and he stared with eyes as big as copper bells.
Looking at the devil, he seemed to want to scare them.
"That's quite interesting. I'd really like to see it if I could, but it's a pity that there haven't been any storms recently."
The devil said.
"Who told you, the sea is like a woman, she will fall out when she says she will. If you are really not afraid, you can give it a try."
"Too bad I don't have a boat."
"I have!"
The old man's eyes shone brightly.
The Demon King smiled slightly and said, "Okay, I'll lend you your boat tomorrow."
"Hmph! I hope you have the guts. If I don't see you before the sun comes up tomorrow, then get as far away from me as possible!"
