The original repairer

Chapter 250 Confirmation of the news

To the east of the Chiyan Continent is the Hundong Sea, and to the north is the Lingzhou Sea. In the northeast, these two seas are connected to the Demon Sea.

Beyond the east coast, there is only an endless expanse of muddy yellow sea water, with a visible depth of less than ten feet. There are many spiritual creatures in the sea, and many cultivators go out to sea to look for them.

There is only one fairy city by the sea on the entire east coast, and there is no large flying boat dock in the fairy city because there is only sea to the east, no continent.

When monks go out to sea, many of them explore by flying boats themselves. Low-level monks do not have flying boats and can only hire mortal ships.

Mortal ships sail very slowly, often taking months to go out to sea and back, and the distances they can travel are limited.

To this end, the only immortal city on the entire east coast, Hundong Immortal City, developed a business of renting flying boats.

Shi Chen came out of the teleportation array of Hundong Immortal City and found that there were quite a few cultivators in this immortal city. Outside the teleportation hall, people were coming and going on the avenue, both cultivators and mortals.

Leaving the teleportation hall, he scanned the surrounding scene. Hundong Immortal City was bustling with activity. On the bustling thoroughfares, monks in all sorts of attire, some hurried along, others strolled leisurely, seemingly searching for something. Mortals bustled about nearby, providing various services to the monks.

Shops lined the streets, their signs swaying gently in the wind. They sold magical weapons, elixirs, and spiritual materials, and cultivators frequently came in and out, conducting transactions.

There are also some small vendors in the stalls of the market, displaying all kinds of strange and unusual items, attracting the attention of passers-by.

In the distance, a vast square held numerous flying boats. These boats varied in shape and size, some magnificent and exuding a powerful aura; others simple yet radiating a sense of sturdiness and durability. In the square, monks were negotiating rental arrangements with the boat owners, their voices echoing.

Half a minute later, Shi Chen left the fairy city, summoned a flying boat, and drove it towards the seaside fishing village where Jia Sheng was.

Shi Chen steered his flying boat across the sea, the wind whistling and bringing with it a salty, astringent aroma. From afar, the sea surface, against the backdrop of the murky water, appeared vast and mysterious.

After the flying boat had been sailing for three days, a small seaside fishing village gradually came into view.

The fishing village is built along the sea, and the houses are mostly made of simple wood and stone. The roofs are covered with palm thatch, which is unique to the seaside, and sway slightly in the sea breeze.

At the dock of the fishing village, there are several dilapidated fishing boats, swaying gently with the waves.

Some fishermen are busy mending their nets or sorting out their fishing gear, their faces etched with traces of time and the erosion of the sea breeze.

The children ran and played on the beach, occasionally picking up some beautiful shells and laughing happily.

Shi Chen slowly landed the flying boat and stepped onto the land of the fishing village.

His arrival attracted the attention of the villagers, and people cast curious glances at him. Shi Chen smiled and greeted the villagers.

Just as he was looking for Jia Sheng, Jia Sheng came out of a fisherman's house, followed by two monks and three middle-aged fishermen, and hurried to meet him.

"Master Shi, you are here." Jia Sheng said respectfully.

Shi Chen nodded slightly and said, "How is the situation?"

Jia Sheng pointed around and said, "I've already inquired thoroughly with the fishermen and villagers within a hundred miles. Many saw the strange sight that day, and the location has been roughly determined. I've recorded all the information and am waiting for you, Master, to analyze and judge it."

Shi Chen raised his hand and summoned the flying boat, then said, "This is not the place for discussion. Follow me onto the flying boat."

Several people looked at each other and watched Shi Chen get on the flying boat first. Jia Sheng hesitated for a moment, exchanged glances with the two cultivators beside him, and then jumped on the flying boat.

A monk followed closely behind him, holding a mortal fisherman with each hand. Another monk stretched out his hand and lifted the remaining mortal fisherman onto the flying boat in the air.

Getting on the flying boat, the three strong fishermen looked at everything with curiosity.

Mysterious runes shimmered across the spacious deck of the flying boat, as if imbued with boundless power. Along the edge of the deck lay strange artifacts he had never seen before, emitting a faint glow.

In the center of the flying boat's deck, there is a place similar to a control panel, covered with gems and knobs of various colors, which is dazzling.

A fisherman approached cautiously, reached out and gently touched the gems, feeling a slight coolness. He couldn't help but wonder how much these gems were worth.

Looking ahead at the flying boat, a transparent barrier blocked the sea breeze, but allowed a clear view of the scenery outside. Through this barrier, the fisherman saw that the sea below was turbulent, while the flying boat was flying smoothly, as if unaffected by anything.

The sides of the boat were engraved with mysterious runes, gleaming metallically in the sunlight. The fisherman wondered how these wings could propel the boat through the air.

Looking at Shi Chen and the others, they looked calm, as if they were already accustomed to this magical flying boat.

Shi Chen looked at the fishermen and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. For these ordinary people, something like a flying boat was indeed full of novelty.

Shi Chen waved his hand and took out a square table from his storage ring, placing it on the deck. He cleared his throat and said, "Don't be nervous. I just want to know more about the wonder you saw that day. If you can confirm that it's true, the reward will be generous."

The fisherman nodded awkwardly and said, "Okay, okay, we'll tell you everything we know."

Shi Chen nodded slightly and signaled Jia Sheng to start asking questions.

Jia Sheng looked at the three fishermen and said slowly, "Think carefully again. When the fairy mountain appeared, were there any special signs around it? For example, were there any strange sounds or lights? Tell us one by one."

The fisherman standing in the middle frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "Hmm... Let me think about it. I was casting my net at sea to catch fish, and when I looked up, I saw a sacred mountain appear in the sky, emitting a faint light... As for its direction..."

Shi Chen looked at Jia Sheng, who understood and activated his spiritual power. He used his spiritual power to produce a flat map on the square table, showing the terrain and villages along the coast within a radius of 200 miles, and large and small islands within 500 miles of the sea.

"We are now here, Daliang Fishing Village. This is Xiaoliang Fishing Village, this is Xieba Village, the larger island on the sea is the coral reef island I took you to the day before yesterday, and this is the place where you pointed out the strange vision on the sea..." Jia Sheng turned some important places on the display map into red and marked them one by one.

"I'm from Xiaoliang Village. The weather was very good that day, so I went out to sea to fish with my wife. After rowing the boat five or six nautical miles, we began to cast the nets. It was not until noon that my wife first discovered the strange sight, which was the same as what Brother Jiao described, but the direction I saw was a little bit to this side." The other fisherman standing on the left said, pointing to the first fisherman.

"What I saw was similar to what they saw, but the direction was from here to here." The last fisherman pointed out in the image.
