Chapter 22 Both Stowaways
Unlike the continuous mountains he had seen in his previous life, Li Fan’s current location was actually above a vast ocean!
It is boundless and has no end in sight.
"What's going on? Why is the place we come out of different this time?" Li Fan was a little confused.
Taking out the map drawn according to memory from his arms, Li Fan tried to find the location of the sea on it.
But after repeated comparisons, nothing was found.
"Forget it, I can only take it one step at a time." Not knowing what went wrong, Li Fan put away the map and sighed, "Luckily I have the Taiyan Boat to get around, otherwise I would be trapped here to death. I just don't know if I can find a place where people live before the spirit stones in the Taiyan Boat run out."
Not one to complain about himself, Li Fan quickly took action.
After choosing a direction, he flew the Tai Yan Zhou while searching for traces of the city.
The sea was so vast that Li Fan flew for seven days and seven nights without seeing any human habitation.
Fortunately, there is enough food prepared in the Taiyan Boat, so there is no need to worry about survival.
More than ten days passed like this, and the speed of Tai Yanzhou became slower and slower, and it was obvious that it was about to run out of power.
Just when he was at the end of his rope, Li Fan finally saw the shadow of a ship on the sea ahead in the distance.
Li Fan was overjoyed, and immediately lowered the altitude of the Tai Yan Boat and slowly approached.
When he got closer, he was speechless.
It turned out that it was indeed a ship, but it was a ship that was about to sink.
It seemed that the ship had been attacked by something. There was a big hole in the hull and two-thirds of it was submerged in water.
Dozens of people were struggling in the waters around the ship, obviously all of them were on board.
Most of these people could not swim, and they just managed to stay afloat by holding onto the broken wood to prevent themselves from sinking.
Li Fan was just hesitating whether to let go of Tai Yanzhou to save these people, but he heard one of the surviving men shouting with difficulty: "Don't be afraid, everyone. I have sent a signal to the Immortal Master! He will come to rescue us soon! Everyone, hold on a little longer!"
Li Fan's heart moved when he heard this.
After putting away the Tai Yan boat, Li Fan jumped into the sea and swam quietly towards these people.
Li Fan quietly blended into the crowd, pretending to be dying and struggling to survive.
After a while, a stream of light flew from a distance and stopped above the crowd.
"Master, save me!"
"Master, help me!"
…
People saw hope and called for help.
"Noisy!"
From the sound of the voice it was a man, but his clothes and face seemed to be covered by a veil, so it was hard to see clearly.
The man snorted coldly and cast some kind of magic. Li Fan felt that he could not make any sound.
Everyone fell silent in an instant.
The immortal master then flew to the side of the sunken ship, and with a gentle lift of his hands, he raised up the ship which had already sunk most of the way into the water.
Another ray of light was emitted, and the big hole in the hull was repaired in an instant.
Then he looked at the people floating in the sea, snorted coldly, lightly took a picture forward, and then lifted it up.
Li Fan and others felt themselves being lifted up by an invisible hand and flown to the repaired ship.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
For a moment, the rescued people were thrown onto the boat by the immortal master like dumplings.
Unable to speak, everyone could only groan.
But all of them had an expression of awe and joy at being rescued, and did not dare to complain at all.
After everyone was rescued, the Immortal Master flew above them and asked in a hostile tone, "Who sent me the signal?"
The man who had spoken out to comfort everyone earlier quickly knelt down on the ground.
The immortal master waved his hand and removed the spell on him.
The man kowtowed and said, "I am Su Changyu..."
The Immortal Master interrupted him directly: "You understand the rules, right? Once you get there, everything has nothing to do with me. I have never seen you before, and I don't know who you are. Do you understand?"
Su Changyu kowtowed again: "I understand. When I came here, my elders had already told me..."
He stopped talking halfway through his words.
It turned out that the immortal master nodded with satisfaction, and then casually silenced Su Changyu.
The immortal master ignored these mortals, came to the bow of the ship, and cast some kind of magic, and the ship began to move quickly in a certain direction.
Seeing this scene, most ordinary people showed shock in their eyes.
There were also some people who seemed to have not recovered from the previous disaster. They just sat slumped on the deck, trembling and curled up, as if crying secretly.
The ship fell into an eerie silence.
Most of the day passed like this, until after dark, when I finally saw a faint flickering light in the distance.
It was an island that looked quite prosperous. Although it was quite far away, one could faintly hear human voices.
There are hundreds of large ships moored at the island's dock, which is quite spectacular.
The ship that Li Fan was on did not sail towards the dock, but circled the island halfway and came to a sparsely populated place on the back.
The boat quietly followed the waterway into a natural cave.
After traveling in the narrow cave for a while, they finally stopped.
After the boat stopped, several burly men in black came up to meet us.
The man in black seemed not to have noticed the immortal master, and simply drove everyone on the boat off with weapons.
Not a word was spoken from beginning to end.
After bringing everyone into a spacious hall, a man in black spoke.
"You will rest here tonight. There is enough food in the hall and you can go and get it yourself. Someone will take you to renew your identity tomorrow. Also, you are not allowed to make noise without reason." After scanning the crowd with a threatening look, the man in black turned and left.
The hall fell into silence for a moment.
After a long time, the Immortal Master's silence spell finally failed. After that, people in the hall began to discuss in groups of three or four.
"We are really unlucky this time. We were attacked by a sea monster. There were nearly a hundred of us when we came here, but less than half of us are alive now."
"What's the point of seeking the truth, what's the point of cultivating immortality. Oh, I don't know what my father was thinking. He had to send me to this big world to cultivate immortality. If you ask me, cultivating immortality is not as joyful as listening to music."
"That's right. In our place, I am the son of the King of Zhennan after all. I can't enjoy any wealth and glory. What's so good about this damn place? That..." He stopped talking halfway and only made a whimpering sound, but his quick-eyed and quick-handed companion covered his mouth.
At this time, the man named Su Changyu said, "Why are you still saying these things now? Who didn't spend a huge price to send you here? Instead of complaining, you might as well practice patiently. If you can really become an immortal master, you will have the hope of immortality and the opportunity to return to your hometown and bring your family members with you."
Li Fan hid in the dark, listening to everyone's conversation, and already had a vague understanding of the identities of these people.
These people, like Li Fan, are probably mortals exiled to the immortal land.
However, it seems that in the immortal land where they are, the existence of the immortal world does not seem to be a secret.
Moreover, has a mature "smuggling" route been developed?
Li Fan touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
