C2255 Young Fisherman
C2255 Young Fisherman
Powerful existences like the Golden Island or the Redbud Merchant Guild, or the Fire Island or the Absolute Yin Island, didn't need to take the initiative to recruit them.
Countless talented people rushed into these great powers in an attempt to become their disciples.
For ordinary people, joining a small power was a good thing.
Before this, there had been several small factions who had come to Green Coconut Island to recruit disciples. However, the results of the hill test were all unsatisfactory.
Gradually, he understood that he didn't have talent, and he couldn't become a powerful cultivator.
However, Chen Xiao's sudden appearance reignited this hope, but it was quickly extinguished again.
Seeing this scene, Chen Xiao's face was calm. People without spiritual roots can't become cultivators unless they use some method to seize the spiritual roots.
However, doing so would cost him a lot, and it would take him a lot of time and effort. Right now, he could not be at ease, let alone helping others.
Taking a step back, even if the siblings saved him this time, it would not be worth it for him to do so.
Moreover, even if he did so, it might not be a good thing. It was good to be an ordinary mortal.
In the bloody battles of the cultivation world, one would die, one would perish while the other would perish. Sometimes, it was even better for one to live an ordinary life as a mortal.
This was an idea that Chen Xiao obtained after stepping into the cultivation world for a long time.
"Sis, let me help you."
"Alright."
Outside the house, the siblings were like all the ordinary fishermen on Green Coconut Island. They sat on a short stools and worked until the sky was about to turn dark before lighting a fire and cooking.
Chen Xiao was lying on his bed as he used his telepathic thoughts to take out a large number of pills and swallowed them. He then continued to heal his injuries.
He estimated that in at most half a month's time, he would be able to recover a portion of his injuries. Then, he would be able to leave the brother and sister's home.
He had to be a bit more careful. He did not want his kind brother and sister to be implicated and met with a calamity. If that happened, he would definitely feel guilty for the rest of his life.
"Uncle, it's time to eat."
After a while, the teenager Little Shan and the girl brought in food and drinks together. This time, the dinner was clearly more sumptuous than the one at noon. Obviously, it was specially prepared for Chen Xiao.
As Little Mountain fed him, the girl cautiously asked, "Are you used to eating these? If there's anything you need, just tell me. "
"That's good." Chen Xiao said lightly.
It could be seen that after the girl found out about Chen Xiao's identity as a cultivator, she was very nervous and worried that she would neglect Chen Xiao.
However, when she saw Chen Xiao's calm expression, she finally felt relieved.
After the meal, the young girl went out to clean up the dishes. Meanwhile, the young man Little Shan stayed behind and accompanied Chen Xiao to talk about some things.
The night passed in silence. Before dawn the next morning, the young girl got up and left to catch up with the sea. At this time, the young boy was still sleeping soundly.
Chen Xiao was also resting. However, he was a cultivator and his spiritual will was very sharp. He could notice even the slightest movement.
His Divine Sense followed the girl out of the door. He saw that she had arrived at a pier by the coast of Green Coconut Island. She had bought some catch from a fisherman who had returned from fishing and then processed the catch a second time before selling it.
Whether or not something could be sold depended entirely on one's skill. The girl was indeed very clever.
During this period of time, there was a man around the same age as the young girl. He eagerly surrounded her, helping her with some stuff or something.
Even a fool could tell that this man had a good impression of young girls.
"Li Yan, stop following me. I can carry these things myself." On the dock, the salty sea breeze blew against the girl's bangs. She stood where she was and said with a serious look in her eyes.
The man's name was Li Yan, and he was also a fisherman who lived nearby. His family background was similar to hers and was a bit thicker.
The young girl actually had many pursuers. Although her family background wasn't good, she had a kind heart and was very hardworking. The people chasing her were also an endless stream of people.
However, she had always refused, and the reason was that she had to drag her little brother Little Shan into adulthood. Only after she had married her wife would she consider herself.
Hearing this condition, many young men of similar age stopped walking. Among them, Li Yan was the one who persisted the longest.
How could the young girl not know what he was thinking? It was a lie that she was not touched at all. After all, people's hearts were not made of stone.
However, she had always worried about her little brother.
She didn't want to think too much about her marriage until Hillside grew up and married.
Li Yan gave a simple and honest smile. He tightened the bag on his shoulder and said, "It's fine. It's not heavy at all. Once I carry it back, I'll leave immediately."
The girl hesitated for a moment before she nodded and said, "Alright then."
"Alright."
Seeing the girl nod, Li Yan suddenly felt even more motivated. He felt that as long as he persisted like this, sooner or later the girl would agree to his request.
The two of them walked back, one in front of the other. Along the way, they met many familiar faces.
"Ah Ling, you've started getting busy so early. You sure are diligent."
"Morning, Auntie Fang."
"Hey, isn't this Little Rock helping Ling carry her stuff? When will you two make it? Don't forget to treat me to a drink."
"Heh heh ~" Li Yan laughed foolishly, not really responding.
"..." The young girl's face turned slightly red, and she felt slightly embarrassed. However, her footsteps quickened.
Not long after, the two of them returned to the entrance of the house. Li Yan gently placed the bag on his shoulder on the buckle. He actually wanted to go in and take a seat, but looking at the young girl's eyes, he didn't have that intention.
The girl squatted down and used all her strength to drag the bag into the yard.
Li Yan hesitantly stood to the side. He didn't know if he should advance or retreat, so he shouldn't say anything for the time being.
Fortunately, Little Shan who had just woken up brought out a bowl of water and handed it to him. "Brother Yan, drink some water."
"Oh, okay."
Li Yan gulped down the entire bowl of water like an ox.
"Drink the water and you can go." In the courtyard, a young girl said with an expressionless face.
"Puchi ~"
Li Yan, who was gulping down large mouthfuls of water, nearly choked to death upon hearing these words. He spat out a mouthful of water and immediately swallowed it back down.
He stood there with an innocent look on his face. After being silent for a long time, he finally managed to say something.
"Ling, I'm leaving now. If you need anything, just call me."
The young girl didn't reply. Only the boy, Xiaoshan, stood at the door, watching Li Yan, who had an expression of reluctance, as he slowly walked away.
