Chapter 245

Yu Qiuyi stared at him for a full ten breaths and said suddenly: "I understand!"

They got up and walked back.

Heng Xian wiped the corner of his mouth and said in a voice only he could hear: "You will never understand."

Yu Qiuyi had already walked to the front of the sect disciples.

Ye Hongxue and the group immediately surrounded them: "How is it? How is it? What did he say?"

Yu Qiuyi deliberated and said: "I can't distinguish which sect or faction he is a disciple of; I haven't seen him. However, this person is very arrogant and very difficult to talk to."

"But his meaning was also expressed very clearly. He did not have insight into the test and laws here."

"He is just a person who loves to use his brain. He is good at observing everything, then analyzing, pondering, and drawing conclusions. It should be just like that."

The nun Yuanyao said: "That is to say, unlike us who had to look for super sect ruins and fate opportunities everywhere as soon as we came in, he observed everything carefully and then found the laws?"

Yu Qiuyi pinched their chin: "That's right! It should be like that! The relics of the ancient immortal worshippers in each small ruin in the dense forest are not the same, but two things are the same: gray medicinal liquid and knife coins!"

"And gray medicinal liquid is a consumable, while knife coins are constant. So, he captured this law, then crazily collected medicinal liquid, and then used medicinal liquid to earn our knife coins, in order to see if the knife coins were useful."

"Just now, arriving here, he wanted cooked beef and wine, which might just be his attempt to see if the knife coins were useful."

"As a result, the knife coins were not only useful, but the old man here really had beef and wine!"

Shen Qiong nodded: "From this point of view, he is indeed much calmer and better at thinking than us."

"Wonderful! That's it!" Everyone couldn't help but applaud.

The analysis was simply too reasonable!

Niu Wanli said: "Then no matter what we do next, we must stay calm, think carefully, and don't miss any clues!"

"Senior Brother Niu is right!" Yu Qiuyi said: "There is strength in numbers. With so many of us, we definitely won't lose to him!"

Niu Wanli said again: "Currently we are a bit behind him. Next, we must be calm and careful, and learn from him first. This is not shameful!"

Everyone nodded one after another: "That's right!"

Thus, more than two hundred people stared dead at Heng Xian.

Heng Xian was still eating beef and drinking wine in a leisurely manner, and at this moment, he suddenly used his finger to pick his teeth.

"Eh? He picked his teeth and pulled out a bit of beef thread, and then spat it out. Could there be any special meaning? After all, this is his first action besides drinking and eating meat!" Someone among the ordinary disciples said in a deep voice.

"Oh..." Yu Qiuyi said: "Maybe he just had something stuck in his teeth."

"Okay."

Everyone continued to watch.

At this time, Heng Xian finally finished eating and drinking, and subconsciously made a movement.

Among the sect disciples, a female disciple exclaimed: "He scratched his crotch; this point cannot be ignored, there must be something special about it!"

Shen Qiong rubbed their brow: "Maybe it's just that he was a bit itchy there. This kind of strange little movement can't affect the overall situation. Don't be so suspicious, Junior Sister!"

"Oh!" The female disciple shrank her neck.

At this time, Heng Xian turned his body to look at the old man sawing wood.

"Swish—"

Everyone stared dead at him; the key point was coming!

They heard Heng Xian ask: "Grandpa, is there a bridge across that sea in front?"

The old man smiled and said: "Of course there is no bridge. Such a wide sea, where would a bridge come from?"

"Then how can we get across?" Heng Xian asked.

The old man asked: "You are going to the War God Palace to worship immortals, right?"

Heng Xian nodded: "Of course!"

The old man said: "If you want to cross the sea, you must have a boat!"

Heng Xian said: "What if I can fly?"

The old man said: "The Three Thousand Ice Sea, evil energy rushing to the sky, sinking hair and trapping mist, immortals cannot pass. Without a boat, even the Great Luo Immortals cannot pass!"

Heng Xian said: "Then where can I get a boat?"

The old man got spirited, stopped working, and sat on the wood: "Speaking of boats, within a thousand li, only my boats are the best. Not to mention going to sea, even if you are going up a mountain of knives or a sea of fire, it will still work!"

Heng Xian snapped his fingers: "I saw long ago that Grandpa was different. So you are a legendary boat-making master. It's simply wonderful!"

The old man smiled, revealing a mouthful of rotten teeth: "I wouldn't dare call myself a master, hahaha... Do you want to buy a boat?"

Heng Xian nodded: "Of course! What are the requirements for this boat?"

The old man said: "Top-grade boat, four hundred knives, three zhang long, one zhang wide, with cabins, decks, latrines, quilts, tea, and tables all complete, capable of blocking thousand-zhang giant waves of the Ice Sea."

"Middle-grade boat, one hundred knives, one and a half zhang long, half a zhang wide, with cabins, decks, and quilts, capable of blocking hundred-zhang giant waves."

"Low-grade boat, thirty knives, covered boat, capable of blocking thirty to fifty-zhang giant waves."

Heng Xian "slapped" the table, putting down a full table of knife coins: "I want the top-grade boat!"

The old man's eyes shone: "Top-grade boat, there is only one. It was mortgaged here by someone from the War God Palace who owed me money back then. If you want it, I'll sell it to you for eight hundred!"

Heng Xian waved his hand: "Bought!"

The old man immediately collected the eight hundred knife coins, and then looked eagerly at the remaining two hundred knife coins on the table: "There are quite a few good things in the shop, do you want to buy some?"

"Good!" Heng Xian didn't go into the shop, but whispered a few words into the old man's ear.

The old man nodded, collected all the remaining knife coins on the table, and ran into the shop happily.

Not far away, Yu Qiuyi, Ye Hongxue, and a large group of people were a bit confused. Just now they were urgently collecting useful information,

such as the fact that the ancient super sect ruins really existed, called the War God Palace, which sounded very scary; then, that sea in front could not be flown over, and a boat was needed, and within a thousand li, only this old man could make boats...

But how did the "cat-faced man" know there was a top-grade boat?? And what the hell was whispering into the old man's ear?

"What did they say?" Yu Qiuyi frowned.

Shen Qiong, Liu Yu, and the group were still a bit confused: "Spiritual sense didn't dare to get close, couldn't hear!"

Niu Wanli said: "He is buying some mysterious things. Let's see what the old man takes out!"

The group stared dead at the grocery store.

The old man soon walked out, holding a strange wooden box, unable to distinguish what was inside.

Then the "cat-faced man" took the box, turned, and left, heading toward the seaside.

The old man continued sawing wood.

Yu Qiuyi took a deep breath and said: "It's our turn, let's see how much money we have in total!"

More than two hundred people immediately gathered the knife coins together, and after counting them, there were only a little over five hundred.

A bit of a poor feeling!

Shen Qiong said with an embarrassed expression: "That kind of top-grade boat the cat-faced man has is gone, and even if it were there, we couldn't afford it!"

"These coins are only enough to buy one top-grade boat or five middle-grade boats or sixteen low-grade boats!"

"However, one top-grade boat or five middle-grade boats cannot seat more than two hundred people. We can only consider low-grade boats!"

Yu Qiuyi thought for a while: "Why don't we buy two middle-grade boats and ten low-grade boats, just enough to consume five hundred knife coins! It should be able to seat more than two hundred people. If the low-grade boats have an accident, the middle-grade boats can rescue them in time!"

Everyone nodded: "That's right! Let's do that!"

The group immediately walked to the old man's side: "Grandpa, we want to buy boats!"

The old man ignored them and continued planing wood.

Ye Hongxue thought the old man didn't hear, and said very loudly: "Old man, I heard that the boats you make are unique, we want to buy boats!"

The old man still ignored them, as if he hadn't heard, his face cold and gloomy.

The group was stunned!

Hey!

This old man didn't look like he was greedy for money anymore. What's going on?!

"Could it be that the cat-faced man told him not to ignore us?" Liu Yu said in a low voice.

Shen Qiong shook their head: "Impossible, why would he listen to the cat-faced man? There's no reason!"

"Then where exactly did the link go wrong? Why ignore us?"

The group looked at each other, speechless.
