Cai Wenji muttered, "Dugu Qiubai?" She thought for a while and said, "Your martial arts are so powerful, your Senior Dugu must also be a master. How come I've never heard of his name?"
Lu Fei smiled and said, "My master has been invincible in the world for many years, so he rarely travels the world and is not famous."
Lu Fei handed the steamed fish to Cai Wenji and said, "Try it." Cai Wenji immediately tore off a piece of fish and ate it. She nodded and said, "It's delicious, and it's a little salty."
Lu Fei said, "There's a lot of salt in the seawater, we don't have to sprinkle salt." The two ate a few fish. At this time, the shark was full of energy and began to speed up. During the journey, Lu Fei would feed it every meal. The shark had never had such an easy experience of hunting. It was actually willing to be ordered around by Lu Fei because it didn't have to work so hard to catch fish when it was with Lu Fei. It only needed to open its mouth to eat until it was full.
After three days, the coast was already in sight. Lu Fei and Cai Wenji both went ashore. The shark was still in the water and refused to leave. Cai Wenji smiled and said, "Looks like Young Master Lu has subdued it."
Lu Fei said, "This beast is addicted to the taste. It already likes the taste of reaping without sowing. Let's go."
They were in a desolate forest. After walking for a while, a city appeared in front of them. Lu Fei said, "I'll send Miss Cai here."
Cai Wenji said reluctantly, "But it's a long way to go, and I don't know where this place is …"
Lu Fei said helplessly, "Then I'll send Miss off again." He escorted Cai Wenji to the city, and found out that this place was within the borders of Xu Province. Thereupon he went to the horse market and bought a horse-drawn carriage and hired a coachman. Turning to Cai Wenji, he said, "Miss Cai, go all the way west and you will reach home. I won't see you off." Finished speaking, he placed two gold ingots in Cai Wenji's hand and said, "Take this money and use it."
Seeing that Lu Fei was so forthright, Cai Wenji recalled that she had only given him a Luban lock last time and felt a little embarrassed. She immediately handed a jade hairpin over to Lu Fei and said, "This jade hairpin was personally made by my father at the request of an old craftsman. I'll give it to Young Master Lu."
Lu Fei said, "I can't accept such a valuable thing." Cai Wenji pulled up Lu Fei's hand and placed the jade hairpin in his hand. "No matter how precious it is, it will never be able to repay Young Master Lu Fei's life-saving grace. You must accept it."
"Wenji." At this moment, a shout came from the side of the street. It turned out to be her Senior Brothers and Junior Sisters. A group of people came over and said happily, "I knew Junior Sister was blessed and would be fine." The group surrounded Cai Wenji in the middle and said, "We were just thinking of finding someone to sail a boat to rescue you." "It's good that Junior Sister is back."
Cai Wenji said a few words to them and when she turned around, she could no longer see Lu Fei's figure. She looked around and asked, "Where is Young Master Lu?"
A woman pursed her lips and said with a smile, "Young Master Lu has already left. Wenji also gave her family's jade hairpin to him. It seems like your heart already belongs to someone."
Cai Wenji said, "He saved my life. Giving him a jade hairpin is nothing. Since you are all fine, let's go back."
The Senior Brother said, "I have already hired two carriages. Let's go now."
Cai Wenji walked towards one of the carriages and said, "Young Master Lu also gave me one. Let's go now."
After Lu Fei left the city and returned to the seaside, he let out a long whistle. The Black Jiao immediately swam over from afar. Lu Fei jumped onto the back of the Black Jiao and said, "Let's go."
The man and the Black Jiao moved forward again. This time, Lu Fei and the Black Jiao dived into the water and moved forward quickly. Two days later, they arrived at the Southern Sea. Lu Fei let the Black Jiao stop on an uninhabited shore. He patted the Black Jiao's head and said, "You play around here. I will come here to find you. Don't go too far, okay?"
The Black Jiao responded in a low voice and swam into the distance. Lu Fei also turned around and set off in the other direction. He walked through a wasteland and saw farmland in front of him. He thought that since there were farmland here, the city was not far away. He needed to inquire about the nearby situation first.
He walked for a long time and finally found a city on the coast. It was located at a port and there were countless merchants coming and going. Many of them were even foreigners. The city was also very lively and there were inns and restaurants everywhere. Lu Fei found the most luxurious inn to stay in. The waiter spoke Cantonese. Fortunately, Lu Fei used to listen to Cantonese songs often and sometimes had dealings with people from Hong Kong, so he could understand what the waiter said. It turned out that this place was called Panyu. It was a place where merchants came and went to rest. It was crowded all year round. The waiter was very knowledgeable and could also hear Lu Fei's official language. Lu Fei asked a few questions and went out.
He put on a mask in a hidden place. He heard that the Jiao State was the territory of the East Sea Palace. If he met the group of crazy women from the East Sea Palace here, he was afraid that he would be hunted down. Seeing that Jiang Hui was so powerful that day, it was likely that their sect master's martial arts were not weak. If he attracted a group of powerful old women, it would be difficult to search for the whereabouts of the "Water Concealment Immortal Grass" here.
Lu Fei inquired about the "Water Concealment Immortal Grass" from several pharmacies, but no one had heard of the thing that Lu Fei was talking about. Lu Fei could only give up on the idea of inquiring from the pharmacies. It seemed that this thing was really rare, and no one had seen it before. The system gave Lu Fei a map notification. He referred to the system's drawing and drew a map. If there was a GPS navigation system, Lu Fei might be able to find it. However, with just this map, it would be difficult to find the island mentioned on the map.
However, those who often sailed would definitely have their own methods. Thinking of this, Lu Fei decided to first go to a restaurant to have a good meal, and then go to the harbor outside the city to ask those who often sailed how to reach his destination.
He walked around the city and finally chose a place called Full Moon Pavilion. Just by looking at the facade, Lu Fei knew how luxurious it was. The people who ate here were either rich or noble, and many of them were foreigners.
As soon as Lu Fei stepped through the door, the waiter immediately greeted him and asked, "Sir, how many people are there?" When he saw that Lu Fei's clothes were not ordinary, he immediately knew that the person in front of him was a rich man. Lu Fei casually rewarded him with a silver ingot and said, "One person, find me a place with good scenery."
