The time at sea passed quickly. Three days later, Li Mu followed the bald man's family back to the fishing village where they lived.
It is said to be a fishing village, but in fact it is already the size of a small town. The small port is docked with hundreds of fishing boats of various types. The buildings in the entire village also have very distinctive local characteristics.
Li Mu was very curious.
"Okay, brother, don't send me off. It's already getting late. As for you two little guys, remember to listen to your parents, okay? Practice hard and become someone who can protect them in the future."
The bald man took the two babies to the outside of the village and then reluctantly waved goodbye. Before leaving, the little girl took out a large bag of warm Tongluo Shaobing, saying that it was for Li Mu to eat as dry food on the road.
Although there were still many high-end delicacies in his warehouse system, Li Mu happily accepted the other party's kindness. Holding the freshly baked sesame cakes in his hands, he truly redefined his view of Penglai Fairyland deep in his heart.
Those invaders were indeed heinous, but they did not represent everyone in the country. Even the Penglai Ten Guys had a group that advocated peace, not to mention these ordinary people with good natures, who were actually equally hostile to war.
"Run'er, Jin'er, come here, uncle will give you each a gift as a thank you for the Tongluo Shaobing you gave me."
Squatting down and touching the heads of the two dolls, Li Mu turned over his right hand and took out a pair of green bracelets, then put them on his two thin wrists.
Although the bald man tried to practice cultivation when he was young, he never truly embarked on the path to immortality. Naturally, he did not see the usefulness of the pair of bracelets. He just thought they were quite valuable, so he declined again and again.
But because of Li Mu's persistence and the two dolls' love for the bracelets, they had no choice but to accept the gift in the end. But the honest middle-aged man didn't know that these bracelets were genuine Xuan-level magic weapons that could transform babies into babies.
Protect the safety of his children in front of the monks in this realm.
After bidding farewell to the small fishing village, Li Mu headed west along the business road. It only took him three days to reach Honda City, the current base camp of the West Penglai Immortal Kingdom.
I have to say that the land area of Penglai Immortal Kingdom is too small compared to Cangyun Empire. Even for ordinary people, it only takes ten days to ride a fast horse from Penglai City in the east to Honda City in the west.
.
The pitifully small territory represents the extreme lack of various resources. As the living standards of the people continue to improve and the power of cultivating immortals gradually grows, the contradiction between land and resources becomes more and more irreconcilable.
Under the impact of this domestic contradiction, the militaristic idea of invading other countries as a means has gained support from more and more people. Coupled with the obstruction of the "blood" organization, Sikong and Katori finally successfully launched the war that decided Penglai.
It is not difficult to understand the war that the Immortal Kingdom is heading towards.
Far away from Honda City, Li Mu put on an upgraded version of the Yi Rong mask. After all, in the defense battle of Qinglan City, too many Penglai Immortal Kingdom soldiers died because of him.
For their surviving family members, Li Mu's face is synonymous with hatred. Although he is now in the Western District, which opposes the war, there is no guarantee that he will encounter any trouble. In order to safely find the ship heading to the South China Sea, he keeps a low profile and hides
Identity is still a necessary means.
Outside the bustling city gate, many businessmen from other countries were queuing up to enter the city. Compared to Dong Penglai, which closed itself off after the war, the rulers of West Penglai clearly understood the importance of economic development.
Not only has Honda City's port been planned as a barrier-free port, but special trade routes have been set up between multiple cities, and military handlers have been dispatched along the way to ensure the safety of caravans from various countries.
Coupled with the special post-war tax policy, chambers of commerce from many countries in the East China Sea still took risks to do business, which also accelerated the development of Xipeng Lai to the greatest extent.
Various weapons and equipment and mercenaries from overseas have also become an important reason why the originally weak Xi Penglai can compete with Dong Penglai, which is controlled by Sikong.
Analyzing the situation he saw before him, Li Mu couldn't help but become very interested in the ten men who were in charge of Xipeng Lai. Even from the perspective of the 21st century, this city was definitely considered outstanding.
After crossing the Central Avenue, Li Mu came to the large market located in the north area of the city. Various vendors gathered here, and people from all walks of life were mixed together. It was the best place to get information.
"Sir, this is the Sake Dutch Chicken that you ordered. Please use it slowly."
As the waiter opened the lid of the brown casserole, the tangy aroma came to his nose. The warm aroma of wine and the sweet chicken were a perfect match. Even Li Mu, who had seen the market, was completely immersed in this Honda City dish.
Under the famous dishes.
Penglai Fairy Kingdom is famous for its fishing, so Li Mu naturally did not let go of his attempts. He summoned the little monkey from the simulated space, and another round of chaos began.
From fresh sashimi to eel rice bowl with rich sauce, from sizzling lantern barbecue to refreshing rice made with scented tea, all kinds of novel delicacies are eye-opening for one person and one monkey, and it is enough for one meal.
It took three hours before the curtain finally came to an end.
"Waiter, check out."
This time, Li Mu didn't make the same mistake as before, and directly handed out a golden ticket that was universal in the fairy world. The face value of the ticket was obviously much more than before the meal. After confirming that the extra part was his tip, the waiter in the restaurant obviously became enthusiastic.
a lot of.
"Do you want to go to the South China Sea? This is really unclear, but I know that all fleets entering and leaving Honda City will register at the shipping office. I have a friend who happens to be doing odd jobs there and should be able to help you."
As the saying goes, money can make people go around, and Li Mu quickly got the information he needed. Without stopping too much, he took the little monkey and rushed to the shipping office that the restaurant waiter mentioned.
Then he used a universal gold ticket equivalent to five hundred cangyun coins to completely bribe the handyman of the aviation office, and a registration form for the next three months came into Li Mu's hands.
Looking at the dense information on the paper, which recorded the goals and team situation of the sailing fleet in extremely detail, one of the items made Li Mu's heart finally drop.
"Qinglong Chamber of Commerce, the destination is Guixu Island in the South China Sea. Isn't that the headquarters of the Guixu Sect? That's fine, as long as it's within the South China Sea."
After confirming his next goal, Li Mu found a nearby inn to stay in, and planned to go to the Qinglong Chamber of Commerce's headquarters in Honda City in a few days to see if there was any way to join the fleet heading to the South China Sea.
At the same time, in the city lord's palace in Honda City, a conversation that would determine the fate of the entire fairy kingdom was also going on.
