It was early in the morning. Smoke rose from the small wooden houses, creating a peaceful and tranquil scene.
The two of them landed on the beach and walked towards the village. An eight or nine-year-old little girl walked towards them. The little girl was naked, wearing a pair of flowery underpants. Her whole body was tanned, and her big eyes were full of spirit.
"Little girl, I want to ask you something." Ye Kong quickly took out a spirit fruit.
The little girl was not afraid of people. She took the spirit fruit and asked, "What is it? I know it all. They say that I'm the village's inquisitive person. Which family caught fish, which family dug up white stones, which family's dried fish was stolen, I know all about it. "
Ye Kong laughed, picked up the little girl, and asked, "We're not asking about that. We're looking for someone. His surname is Wu … "
The little girl rushed to say, "Everyone in our village has the surname Wu."
Yue Minghui hurriedly said, "He's called Wu Wuzhi."
The little girl was confused. She shook her head, "I've never heard of him."
"Maybe he changed his name." Ye Kong changed his approach and asked, "He's an immortal cultivator. En, it means he's not a mortal. He's a person who can fly and has magic power."
Not only did the little girl not answer, but she laughed and said, "Big brother, you're lying. Only birds can fly. Humans don't have wings, so how can they fly?"
Yue Minghui was dumbfounded. Clearly, this village was full of mortals. There were no immortal cultivators.
Yue Minghui did not give up and continued to ask, "Then, have any outsiders come to your village?"
The little girl said, "I've never seen outsiders in my life. You two big brothers are the first outsiders I've seen."
Yue Minghui was completely in despair. Ye Kong hurriedly comforted him, "How many years has she lived? That Senior Wu has been living in seclusion for decades. Let's ask the adults. "
The two of them followed the little girl to her house. The little girl's parents were both at home. It was rare for these fishermen to meet strangers. They were very polite and led them into the house, treating them to breakfast.
Ye Kong and the others didn't decline either. As they ate, they asked about the situation on the island. The fisherman's husband and wife were honest and straightforward.
It turned out that there were a total of twenty families in the village. Everyone had the surname Wu. As for who the ancestors were, they did not know.
However, they didn't originally live on this island. A few decades ago, their village chief told them that there was a shiny stone somewhere on this island. They could pick it up and sell it for money, so the entire Wu Family Village moved here.
Hearing this, Ye Kong and Yue Minghui looked at each other and had doubts about the old village chief. If he wasn't an immortal cultivator, how could he know of the stones' value?
They asked about the old village chief, but who knew that the fisherman of the fisherman said that the old village chief had brought a few men to sell.
Fortunately, they were the old village chief of them the old village chief't.
The two crowded.... They.... which. in. the two, Yue. of of of of of of them., Yly, they came.
Them. "." Yof them. and they. of them. "The" Of them. The next day, the old village chief had not returned. Ye Kong teased the little girl and asked, "Little girl, my name is Li Heizi. What's your name?"
The next day, the Old Village Chief had not returned yet. Ye Kong teased the little girl and asked, "Little sister, my name is Li Heizi, what's your name?"
The next day, the old village chief had not returned. Ye Kong teased the little girl and asked, "Little girl, my name is Li Heizi. What's your name?"
The little girl said, "I don't have a name. They all call me Hei Niu." How about I help you think of a name? "The fisherman's parents were illiterate.
The fisherman's husband and wife were illiterate, so they said, "Big Brother, we wanted to ask the old Village Chief to give Hei Niu a name, but the old Village Chief said that it doesn't matter if she has a name or not. It's hard for us to say. Since Big Brother has the intention, then please take the trouble."
"Hey, how can she not have a name? Let me do it!" Yue Minghui said, "As the saying goes, a beauty is on the other side of the water. I think since Hei Niu is a girl by the sea, let's call her Wu Shuiyi. How about it?"
Ye Kong shook his head. "That's too genteel. It's not good. Let's make it simple. Wu Yangyang. It means the ocean and joyful."
Yue Minghui said, "What kind of name is that? It also means goat and sheep! Wu Shuiyi is so good. So poetic and romantic. "
But what made Yue Minghui vomit blood was that the fisherman's parents insisted on the name Ye Kong had named Wu Yangyang. It was no wonder. The fisherman's parents were illiterate. It was too profound. They couldn't understand it, so they insisted on joyful.
Although Ye Kong had casually named it, the little girl was very happy. She shouted, "I have a name!" and went to show off in front of her friends.
The result was that the seven or eight boys and girls in the village had no names. The parents brought their children.
When they came, they said, "Our names were all given by the village chief. He's the only one in the village who can read. But for the past ten years, he refused to name them. So the children under ten years old don't have names. "
Ye was also on a whim. If there were so many names for him to think of, he wouldn't be able to think of them. This glorious and arduous task was left to Yue Minghui.
While Yue Minghui was hiding in the house, the black girl, no, little sister Wu Yangyang, pulled Ye Kong out.
"Big Brother, I'll bring you to see the shiny stones." The little girl said in a low voice.
"Okay!" Ye Kong was overjoyed. He had been thinking about this for a long time, but he was too embarrassed to say it. Now that the little girl took the initiative to bring him there, he naturally went with her.
If they encountered some heavenly treasure, they would be rich.
After passing through the small mountains around the island, they came to the bottom of a cliff. They saw a glittering irregular white crystal between the rocks.
Ye Kong used his hand to pinch the crystal and felt a weak spiritual aura fluctuation. Ye Kong was a little disappointed. According to the density of the spiritual aura, he could tell that it wasn't a valuable treasure.
It was no wonder that no cultivators came to the island to steal treasures in the past few decades. It turned out that there was no need to steal this thing.
Ye Kong guessed that this was some kind of sea demon's egg. It could be eaten by Qi Condensation cultivators to replenish some spiritual energy, but it was basically useless for late stage Qi Condensation cultivators.
And if those early and middle stage Qi Condensation cultivators who needed this thing crossed the vast sea to steal it, it would be too dangerous. No one would do such a stupid thing.
"I'll give it to you." The little girl said with a smile.
Ye Kong didn't want to disappoint her. He pretended to love it so much that he couldn't bear to part with it. He put away the demonic beast egg and said: "I need it."
The little girl smiled very happily. Although she was dark and thin, her smile was so bright.
"Big Brother, these stones will appear in the cracks between the rocks every once in a while. You're experienced and knowledgeable, you must know what these stones are used for, right?" The little girl raised her head and asked curiously.
"These are actually not stones. They are the eggs of a type of sea beast." Ye Kong explained.
The little girl didn't believe him and asked: "Really? But I see that chicken and duck eggs are very easy to break. Why are these eggs harder than stones?"
Ye Kong said: "The eagle soars in the sky, the fish glides in the shallow water, the tiger roars in the forest, and the deer gallops in the grassland. In the boundless world, all living things compete for freedom in the frosty sky. All kinds of beasts have their own way of life and characteristics. How can you use the characteristics of one beast to cover all of them? This world is very big and very mysterious. There are many things you don't know, waiting for you to grow up, observe, and discover. "
Although the little girl didn't completely understand what Ye Kong said, after listening to him, she was already full of curiosity about the future and the outside world.
The little girl nodded and said: "When I grow up, I must be like Big Brother. I must travel the world and be knowledgeable."
"Good. If you have a dream, then there will be hope." Ye Kong reached out his hand and patted her head.
At this moment, an old sigh suddenly came from behind.
