King of the Fairy City
Volume 1: Trapped on a Deserted Island Chapter 157: Ransom
Sirens reefs.
On one of the huge reefs that is hundreds of feet long, there is only a bare small stone mountain, and there are some scattered seaweeds around, which have also been plucked out by people.
In the originally flat small stone mountain, there are stone caves, which are tortuous and even form a height difference. This is to prevent seawater from entering the cave and flooding it.
Every time it rains, the monks will squeeze into the caves to hide, and come out to move after the rain stops.
As for drinking fresh water, it is not a problem for the monks. They can collect it by casting a few water spells.
This morning, a dark cloud suddenly floated in, and a shower fell within a few dozen miles of the siren reef.
The monks cursed the bad weather while squeezing into the stone caves to hide.
In the afternoon, the rain stopped, and the eight city lords, including the city lord Gao and the city lord Min, hunched over and drilled out of the largest stone cave. Without caring about tidying up their appearance, they called their own monks to go fishing near the reef.
Because there were too many captive monks here, they had to spend a lot of energy on hunting.
Hearing the shouts, many monks immediately walked out and dived into the nearby sea to drive away the sea fish, while monks on the shore continued to cast spells to hunt sea fish.
After more than half a month, they have become quite skilled in hunting sea fish, which can be regarded as an unexpected surprise.
More than ten miles away, there are often two or three warships of Ye Village cruising, monitoring this nameless reef island. Those who are "under house arrest" here are all the captured city lords and monks of the Ten Village Alliance.
Some brave monks tried to swim back to the fairy village from the sea water and escape in this way.
The monks on the Ye family's sea ship saw this and did not stop them, but just watched from a distance.
Soon, those brave monks swam in the sea for more than a few miles and encountered a large group of sea knife fish. They almost lost their lives and finally escaped back.
The monks on the Ye family's sea ship laughed when they saw this.
After several times, no monk dared to try such a dangerous move again.
In the sea, a monk who is good at water magic may be able to easily kill a few sea knife fish, but dozens or hundreds of sea knife fish will still make them miserable.
No monk in the Qi training period can cross hundreds of miles of sea and return to their fairy village.
Although the reef is very bad, at least there is no danger to life.
The monks can only move a few hundred feet near the reef, throw the various sizes of sea fish they hunt on the shore, and divide into small teams of varying numbers to deal with the sea fish.
The monks who can use fire magic take turns to cast fire magic to roast fish.
The flames generated by the spells are extremely hot. The monks take turns to roast the fish, and they can roast the sea fish, and finally eat cooked food.
What makes the city lords dissatisfied is that there is no seasoning here. When the sun is scorching at noon, they pour sea water on the rocks to dry and add some white salt. Now they feel sick when they smell the smell of fish.
Unless you are starving, you can't swallow the sea fish.
The monks from each village are busy thinking of various ways to cook the grilled fish in new ways. After trying for a long time, few people started eating.
"Look, there is a light sea ship in the distance, and it seems to be coming towards us."
A monk was grilling fish, looked up and looked around, and suddenly said.
"It must be the ship of Ye Village, and wanted to come and see if we have escaped. This sea area has long been controlled by the sea ships of Ye Village. No one can get here except the Ye family's sea ships."
A few monks turned their heads to take a look, but didn't take it seriously, and continued to grill their fish.
Most monks were very calm and focused on doing their own things.
When they first arrived on the island, they were very excited when they saw the sea ships of Ye's Lingdao appeared, thinking that Ye Mo came to negotiate with them.
But after more than half a month, they have been disappointed again and again, and they have completely given up, and now they are calm.
Ye's Immortal Village had no intention of letting them leave.
The monk who discovered the ship also felt it was boring. He looked down at the grilled sea fish in his hand, took a deep breath, closed his eyes and took a bite, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it whole.
"This ship doesn't seem to be passing by, it's coming over"
After a while, someone shouted in surprise.
This time, everyone was finally alarmed and looked at the light sea ship, only to see that the sea ship was heading straight for the reef where they were.
"Finally here"
"Damn it, I thought the surname Ye was going to keep us imprisoned!"
"How is this possible? We are worth a lot of 'spiritual stones', how could he bear to keep us imprisoned"
The sea ship slowly approached, and some sharp-eyed monks even saw Ye Mo and some Ye Village monks wearing red fire sword armor standing on the bow deck.
The city lords immediately threw away the sea fish and cheered up.
The sea water near the island was shallow, and the sea ship stopped thirty feet away from the reef.
Ye Mo was not worried about being hijacked. All the monks on the ship were wearing full sets of spiritual sword armor, and those unarmed "captives" were no match for them.
Besides, after being hungry for more than half a month, even a strong man would not have the strength to fight.
The eight city lords brought their men to the edge of the reef, staring at Ye Mo on the bow of the ship, but they didn't know what to say for a while. Ye Mo must have come to negotiate with them, but they couldn't say anything to beg for mercy.
Ye Mo stood on the deck, his eyes swept over City Lord Min and others, and smiled lightly: "Dear city lords, I have prepared spiritual rice, fresh vegetables and spiritual beast meat for everyone. I will send someone to the island to eat first, and then we will talk.
When the city lords and their monks heard this, their stomachs growled.
A small boat, under the eager anticipation of the captives, was lowered from the ship, carrying a large amount of fragrant spirit wine and beast meat towards the reef.
The monks could not help but run to the place where the boat was docked.
"You guys step back a little, how can I get ashore without a place? No need to squeeze, there is enough food, everyone has a share," shouted a monk from Ye Village who was manning the boat.
This sentence immediately made the city lords and monk captives on the reef blush.
It was embarrassing
However, this was not their fault.
Whoever stayed on this island for more than half a month, eating fishy sea fish every day, white fish meat, without even a little seasoning, would probably care less about their image than them.
The monk from Ye Village went ashore and took out buckets of food, plates of porcelain bowls and chopsticks.
The city lords and their monks were given food, and they consciously stepped aside and ate like crazy. The whole island was filled with the sound of people chewing and praising.
On the ship, Ye Mo, Chang Fei, Gao Jian, the five slave guards and other followers were all stunned.
"It's only been half a month, and you're so hungry?"
Mo Ling felt sympathy and whispered with her mouth covered.
"Who asked them to join forces to attack our fairy village? They deserve it."
Wang Hu held back his laughter.
After the eight city lords had eaten and drunk enough and rested for a while, they were invited to the Ye family ship one after another to discuss the ransom with Ye Mo.
After being defeated and captured, it was only natural to pay the ransom.
When it came to spirit stones, the eight city lords immediately regained their spirits and became shrewd. They bargained fiercely with Chang Fei.
It took a whole day to agree on the ransom. The eight city lords paid 10,000 to 20,000 spirit stones to redeem their freedom according to the severity of the crime and the number of monks under their command.
This was the second time that City Lord Min instigated other immortal villages to oppose Ye Village, and he violated the agreement first, so he spent the highest amount of 20,000 spirit stones before he was allowed to return.
The delivery of spirit stones also took time. It was not until five days later that the confidants sent back by the city lords brought ransoms to Ye's Immortal Village one after another.
"I didn't sign an agreement with you. If you want to continue to take revenge, don't hold back. Even if you can't, the ransom for the next defeat will be far more than the amount just now."
After receiving the ransom, Ye Mo sent the city lords away and smiled.
The eight city lords looked ugly, and boarded the fast boat sent by Ye Mo with different thoughts, and left in embarrassment.
After the eight city lords returned, they all settled down temporarily, and even did not go out to sea easily. This sea area really calmed down.
They paid a large amount of spirit stone ransom, which has dragged down the development of their respective immortal villages. It has become impossible to challenge Ye's Immortal Village in a short period of time.
At this time, the Ye Family Immortal Village had become completely powerful, occupying fifteen branch islands and receiving more than 100,000 spiritual stones in ransom from each village. The scattered cultivators flocked to it, and the nine surrounding villages were powerless to save the situation.
The affairs of the Ye Family Immortal Village were carried out in an orderly manner. Although a large amount of technology was bought back, it would take a lot of time for the cultivators to become proficient.
Ye Mo had less things to do.
Ye Mo planned to take advantage of this period of free time to visit other immortal villages in the Aolai Islands.
There were 360 new immortal villages in the entire Aolai Islands with a radius of 10,000 miles, and there were only 10 immortal villages within a thousand miles around him, which was only a small part.
He wanted to see how other powerful immortal villages were developing.
At the dock of the Ye Family Immortal Village.
Several small fishing boats were returning to the port from afar, and some fishing boats were preparing to set sail. These boats were half the size of light armored warships, could only carry more than ten people, and were not equipped with combat spiritual weapons such as copper cannons.
This small fishing boat is the main means of transportation for casual cultivators to travel between various immortal villages and go out to hunt sea monsters.
The distance between the Aolai Islands is not far, and the wind and waves are not too strong, so taking this small boat is enough.
Ye Mo, dressed in casual cultivator casual clothes, wearing a protective hat, brought A Shui, one of the Tu Nu Guards, and mixed with more than ten casual cultivators to board a small fishing boat moored at the dock.
He planned to visit various immortal villages as a casual cultivator, and he could see more things.
This fishing boat planned to go to a Shen's immortal village thousands of miles away. It would set off in the morning and arrive in about a day.
This immortal village did not participate in the previous war and was in a peaceful state with the Ye's immortal village.
Ye Mo got on the fishing boat, got into the cabin, and found a clean place to sit down.
There were more than a dozen casual cultivators on the fishing boat. Counting Ye Mo and A Shui, there were only two mid-stage cultivators.
The others were all in the early stage of Qi training. These people were dressed differently and sat together with their familiar companions to talk in a low voice.
Ye Mo and Ah Shui had just found an empty seat and sat down when they heard the captain outside the cabin shouting.
"Everyone sit down, let's go!"
The captain, a middle-aged strong man in his forties with a full beard, untied the rope tied to the shore, pulled up the anchor with a winch, and sailed out of the harbor.
The fishing boat left the dock, turned a large arc on the sea, and headed towards the Shen's Immortal Village.
There were all casual monks on the boat, some talking in low voices, and some meditating with their eyes closed.
After half an hour, everyone in the cabin became familiar with each other and gradually talked more.
