Chapter 35: The long-term transaction of absorbing magic has...
Bai Xi picked up the firewood on the ground.
The weather was good these past two days, and the wet firewood had completely dried out after being exposed to the sun for a few days. At least their time was not wasted.
As she stood up, holding the firewood in her arms, she caught sight of something floating on the sea. Puzzled, she looked over and saw what it was: "Sister, sister, there's something on the sea."
"What?" Bai Yu came out, holding an axe, and looked at the sea, squinting for a moment. "It looks like a box. How could there be a box on this side of the sea?"
Bai Xi also found it strange, but he quickly thought of the wind from the previous two days: "Could it be the wind that blew over here? Didn't we see the sails drifting by when the wind blew two days ago?"
Unfortunately, the sail flew too far and they did not find it at sea. They didn't know where the wind had blown it to.
"It's really possible," Bai Yu looked at the box on the water, then stood on tiptoe to check the position of the boat. "There's no water under the boat today, so our boat can't get out."
"But at this location, the fishing net might hit it. I wonder what's inside." Bai Xi was a little excited. They had been on the island for so long and hadn't seen any boat passing by. This box had floated over for two days, and no one knew how far it was from its original location.
Bai Yu saw Bai Xi's anticipation and said with a smile, "Then go and give it a try. We have nothing to do right now anyway."
Bai Xi smiled and jumped on the spot, handed the firewood in his hand to Bai Yu, then quickly pulled up Bai Miao who was "exercising" and took her down to cast the net.
Bai Xi was very familiar with the distance for casting the net. After getting on the boat, he roughly estimated the position of the box and knew that the net he cast could hook it, but he had to be accurate, otherwise if the net didn't hit the box, it would probably push the box away.
She held the net in her hand and tried a few moves on the spot, determined the location of the box, and suddenly threw the net down.
Bai Miao was also watching closely. When he saw her cast the net and accurately cover the box, he immediately stood up, jumped and clapped: "Second sister is amazing!"
"Really? I told you it's possible." Bai Xi raised his head proudly, exerted a little force on his hands, and let the box move closer little by little with the waves until it reached the beach.
The box is a bit big, so we can only get it from the deep sea at the beach, and it is impossible to pull it up with a fishing net alone.
Just then, a "plop" sound came from below.
Bai Xi walked quickly to the front, holding onto the guardrail and shouting, "Big sister, go ahead."
Bai Yu approached the box, grabbed the wooden bar on it, and looked up and shouted, "Change into swimming clothes and come down. This box is quite big, and it's hard for me to drag it alone."
The clothes they wear when going into the water are always the same. After all, the water is wet and damp, and sometimes it takes a long time, so they are reluctant to wear new clothes when going into the water.
Bai Xi quickly changed his clothes and went into the water to help Bai Yu pull the box onto the beach.
After getting ashore, both of them were curious about what was in the box.
Bai Yu looked up and saw Bai Miao squatting by the guardrail. She wanted to ask her to get something, but seeing that she was just a small ball squatting there, she was really worried about letting her do it, so she got on the boat herself and got the tools from the boat.
The box was sealed tightly, but water had seeped into it after drifting on the sea. When it was pried open, obvious blisters could be seen.
"Whatever is in there, I hope that what's in there is okay."
Bai Yu saw what was inside through the gap and said with a smile, "It's okay even if water gets in."
Bai Xi immediately leaned in to take a closer look: "Is this a porcelain bowl?"
"This box is full of porcelain bowls, so even if water gets in, it won't have any effect," Bai Yu finally pried open the box. "That's good. We won't be short of bowls in the future."
"Not only that, we can use one bowl for eating and one bowl for drinking water." Bai Xi took two bowls from the box, raised his head and held the bowls around, talking to the squatting Bai Miao, "Miao Miao, you will have bowls to use from now on."
"Wow," Bai Miao stretched out her hand, "Second sister, I want it."
"I'll give it to you later."
Bai Xi smiled and put down the bowl in his hand: "With so many bowls, are you doing business with foreigners?"
"Maybe," Bai Yu didn't understand. "These bowls are much better looking than the ones I saw others use on the shore before. If they are shipped to foreign countries, there will definitely be many people willing to buy them."
"Well, if that's the case, would people in the magic plane be willing to take it?" Bai Xi thought.
"But we can't go to the market." Bai Yu looked at her.
Bai Xi pursed his lips and sighed, "That's right. Since we can't go to the market, of course we can't sell these bowls. Besides, even if we had money from the magical plane, we wouldn't be able to spend it right now."
Although they were discouraged, they were still very happy when they saw the box of bowls floating over the sea.
They couldn't use all the bowls, so they took some to the kitchen and put the rest in the cabin on the bottom floor.
After that, I continued to live my normal life.
When the time came for them to go to the magic plane as agreed, the three of them went there early in the morning with the fish they had prepared in advance and met Nancy again.
This time, there was a pile of magic meat on Nancy's doorstep.
"I'll pay you," Nancy said, pulling a large basket from the cave. "If you can help me remove the magical elements from this meat, it's all yours."
The three sisters had no idea how much the things in the basket were worth.
But it is a fact that the magic in this meat can extend the duration of the pass.
"Should we tell her that we actually made a profit?" Bai Xi approached Bai Yu and asked.
"But judging from her expression, this seems difficult to do," Bai Yu replied in a low voice. "If we say this is easy, will she think we are weird?"
Bai Xi frowned and thought for a moment: "Yeah, we are different from them, so let's just accept it."
Bai Yu nodded.
It is very simple to absorb the magic from the magic flesh. Bai Yu realized later that it seemed difficult for people in this plane to do this, but since he had done it once before, there was no need to hide it.
Thinking of this, she still picked up Bai Miao and went with her to use the card.
In this way, if any accident happened, she could immediately run away with Bai Miao in her arms.
Fortunately, Nancy didn't do much. She even walked away on purpose for fear of disturbing them.
When she saw the color in the meat gradually fade away, she showed the same ecstatic look as before: "So much meat, can it be processed so quickly?"
Bai Yu held Bai Miao and retreated: "You can take a look."
Nancy took one look and nodded, "They're fine. I can sense there's no magical element in the meat."
Then she looked at the three of them expectantly: "You will come again in five days, right? We really need you, you will come again, right?"
Bai Yu looked at her, then looked at the basket of things.
Absorbing magic is a win-win for them, and what Nancy wants is the flesh without magic. The two sides can be said to have hit it off.
Bai Yu nodded: "Yes, we will come again."
"Great!" Nancy said happily, and then asked, "What do you need? If there's anything special you need, we can help you find it."
"It's all fine, just look for it." Bai Yu said.
Anyway, no matter what, they won't lose.
Nancy nodded, "Okay, we'll try to find some good stuff."
The transaction was completed, and the three sisters did not stay here for long. They left with the basket of things given by Nancy.
Not long after the three of them left, a lot of people came out from Nancy's hiding place.
"What did you just use? How could it absorb magic so quickly?"
"It must be a magic item, and a particularly good one at that."
"Why don't they use flying carpets?"
"There are always monsters watching this area. Who dares to use a flying carpet?"
"Too."
As they were talking, a group of people gathered around the meat that had lost its magical element.
“It looks delicious.”
"Shouldn't it be uncomfortable to eat meat like this? I'm tired of the burning sensation every time I eat."
"No, it's delicious," Nancy confirmed. "I've eaten the meat they brought before. Not only does it not burn all over, but it also tastes much better than before. It's much better than meat with magical elements. It even makes you forget the pain of losing your magic."
"Will it?"
"Yes."
…
"What's this?"
"What's this for?"
"What is this?"
The three of them talked to each other, and after finishing their words, they all sighed.
As expected, I still can’t understand things in the magical plane.
But this time the gains were not completely in vain.
Bai Xi pulled out a roll of leather from the basket. It was made of something unknown and had many words written on it. When he accidentally touched it, the leather made a sound.
"This can be used to learn to read," Bai Xi said excitedly, then quickly suppressed his emotion, "But we still can't match it."
"This will do the job," Bai Yu said, opening a thick notebook. "Look, there are pictures inside."
"Really? This way we can compare and know what's on the other side of the magic plane." Bai Xi looked at the painting in Bai Yu's hand and waved to Bai Miao who was playing with a water bag nearby. "Miao Miao, come here. From now on, I'll give you this notebook in my eldest sister's hand and this one in my second sister's hand. Once you learn it, teach us."
Bai Yu smiled and patted her gently: "Let Miaomiao teach you."
"Miaomiao is smart," Bai Xi smiled and looked at the water bag in Bai Miao's hand. "Why is there another water bag in this basket?"
"Of course, because people in the magical plane also need to drink water," Bai Yu looked into the basket and took out a piece of leather made of a similar material to the water bag. "I'll make this into a water bag later. That way, when we go to the forest plane to look for materials, we won't have to come back to drink water all the time."
"The leather is a bit thick," Bai Xi tugged at it, "I might not be able to sew it with my needle."
"Let's talk about it later. We can do this when we need it. I don't know when the market on the magical plane will reopen."
"Anyway, there shouldn't be any today. I didn't see any blankets in the sky."
