The night at the seaside was slightly different. The sky was dotted with stars and the moon was like a crescent, but tonight it seemed to be a little bloody.
Bonfires were lit in Moon Bay, and the villagers danced around the bonfires, which were unique to their village.
The hot and beautiful young lady pulled Cheng Xiao into the crowd. At first, Cheng Xiao was a little embarrassed, but soon he was infected by the joyful atmosphere. He held hands with the young ladies and danced awkwardly.
What made Cheng Xiao a little distressed was that these young ladies always liked to touch him all over his body.
Cheng Xiao was not a cowardly person? It was impolite not to return the favor. In the laughter that came one after another, Cheng Xiao tasted the rouge of the sisters.
But Cheng Xiao was quite melancholy. Seeing those sisters leave with satisfaction, he didn't know who was at a disadvantage.
Seeing this, Lu Han whispered a few words in Cheng Yu's ear.
"Ah? What did you say?" The banquet was noisy, Cheng Yu couldn't hear clearly, and raised his wine glass to ask loudly.
"I said, your nephew is quite popular, maybe your share will increase this year!"
"Hahaha, life is not easy, life is not easy!" Cheng Yu laughed heartily, clinked glasses and drank the wine in the glass.
Cheng Xiao sighed.
After playing tired, Cheng Xiao withdrew and wandered around casually. When he saw someone cutting the body of the magic whale, he started to watch.
The butchers had great knife skills, and each knife was like art, so exquisite that it was jaw-dropping. One point deeper was too much, and one point shallow was too little.
Not to mention, it was quite stress-relieving, not much worse than repairing a donkey's hoof.
The magic whale meat was continuously fed into the cauldron on the bonfire, and whale oil was boiled, exuding a fascinating fragrance, which added a little beauty to this bonfire party.
Cheng Xiao was fascinated, cutting one magic whale corpse after another, and didn't feel tired at all.
After an unknown amount of time, Cheng Xiao suddenly saw the butcher cut open the head of the demon whale. This was nothing surprising, as they seemed to do the same with every corpse.
However, this time, the butcher's action made Cheng Xiao's pupils shrink. He saw the butcher put his hand into the head of the demon whale, took out a golden crystal, and threw it directly into the pile of debris beside him.
Whale glue! It was actually whale glue!
"Wait, just throw it away like that?" Cheng Xiao was stunned.
"That thing?" The butcher glanced at the golden crystal thrown out: "That thing is a lump growing in the head of the demon whale. It's useless and can't be put into the pot."
Cheng Xiao couldn't help but stagnate when he heard it. Lump? Useless? That's whale glue!
Whale glue that is enough to increase the soul master's soul ring absorption period by one level!
Just throw it away like that?
But Cheng Xiao immediately realized that whale glue was mentioned in the original work, 10,000 years later.
In this era, almost everyone rigidly believes that there is a maximum number of years for soul ring absorption. Only a small number of people believe that the absorption period is related to the quality of the martial soul, the strength of the physical body and the soul power, but this view is not mainstream and is not recognized by the public.
In this cognitive environment, no one believes that there are items that can increase the absorption period of soul rings!
"Is it possible that whale glue will be discovered to be effective in the next ten thousand years? Or is it that it was studied by the Sun and Moon Continent and known to the people of Douluo Continent after the collision of the earth's crust?"
Thinking of this, Cheng Xiao couldn't suppress his excitement.
This is whale glue. After ten thousand years, no soul master would not want this thing.
After taking two deep breaths and pretending to be calm, Cheng Xiao pointed to the golden whale glue and said, "Can you give it to me? I'm quite curious about this thing. I can buy it."
"Well, forget about giving money. If you want it, take it. This thing is garbage. How can I charge you money?" The butcher waved his hand and didn't care. The buyers present today are all on good terms with the village. If people knew that he "sold" them garbage, it would affect his reputation. He would not do such a thing. He still has a bright future. There is no need to go along with those guys who hang out in the Whale Hunting City.
He took the golden whale glue in his hand and gently stroked it with his fingers. The surface was quite smooth. He tapped it hard and it was as hard as stone.
After returning to Lu Han and his uncle, Cheng Xiao still felt a little unreal. He didn't spend a penny to get the whale glue that would make soul masters in ten thousand years salivate.
"Huh? Why are you holding this thing?" Lu Han saw the whale glue in Cheng Xiao's hand and looked disgusted.
"Huh? What is this?" Cheng Yu was drunk and couldn't speak clearly.
"This stuff grows in the brains of some sick demon whales. It has a great impact on the quality of whale oil. Before putting it into the cauldron, it must be removed, otherwise it will ruin the entire cauldron of whale oil, and even the cauldron will have to be scrapped, otherwise all the whale oil will have to be thrown away." Lu Han said with a burp.
Cheng Xiao heard this and asked, "Is there a lot of this stuff?"
"Not a lot, at most one or two in a batch, sometimes not even one in a batch. But don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of one. When boiling whale oil, you're afraid that this stuff will be mixed in accidentally. The boiled whale oil will stink and emit thick smoke, and it can't be sold at all."
Cheng Xiao counted the time of going back and forth with his fingers, that is, at most three batches a year.
Doesn't that mean that at most six pieces of whale glue can be produced in a year? Damn! This is the rhythm of getting rich!
"Hiss!" It's
a bit incredible.
But on second thought, Moon Bay controls half of the whale oil in the entire Douluo Continent, and it's not surprising to produce six pieces at most. After all, when you're unlucky, you can't produce a single piece for several years in a row.
Oh, no, for the villagers, it should be considered lucky that the whale oil was not spoiled.
Strange, this is arsenic to others, honey to me?
"What about the ones that were found before?" Cheng Xiao wanted to collect more.
"Either they were thrown back into the sea with the remains of the demon whale, or they were thrown to the children in the village to play with. Who knows." Lu Han didn't care.
Cheng Xiao's mouth twitched. What a waste.
"Uncle Lu, I like this thing. It's golden and pretty." Cheng Xiao played with the whale glue and said with a smile: "You don't know, I like to collect strange stones and rocks the most. This thing is as hard as stone. I want to collect it for fun."
"How about this, you help me keep an eye out every year, I want to collect it and keep it. Of course, I won't let you work in vain, uncle, don't you think?" Cheng Xiao poked Cheng Yu with his elbow.
Cheng Yu managed the family business in an orderly manner, and his EQ was naturally not low. He realized something was wrong at the beginning. His nephew likes to collect strange stones and rocks? Bullshit, how could he not know?
He made it sound so reasonable that people who didn't know him would really think he was a young man with a special hobby.
His own nephew asked him to cooperate, this thing must be extraordinary!
Cheng Yu understood immediately and immediately put his arms around Lu Han's neck: "Old Lu, this is the leader of our Cheng family in the future, you have to pay attention. Don't you like drinking? Every year I come here and bring you a pot of palace jade liquid, hiccups, it smells so good."
"Tomorrow, the two of us will go to the Whale Hunting City. I heard that a batch of good stuff has arrived there. Hehe, we've been crazy at sea for more than 20 days..."
Hearing Cheng Yu's words, Lu Han's eyes lit up immediately and he agreed without hesitation: "Don't worry, I'll go and ask tomorrow morning to see if this year's batch is still out."
