Chapter 188 Mysterious Island(1/3)
"My father said when he wanted to see you."
Chen Ruxuan said naturally.
But his eyes suddenly wandered, as if a little unnatural.
Su Anlin was stunned: "See me?"
His face became strange and he asked, "Why does uncle suddenly want to see me for no reason?"
Chen Ruxuan's eyes were wandering wildly, and she explained angrily: "I just want to see you, um... um... you saved me after all, he probably wants to thank you in person."
Su Anlin said: "Uncle, you are too polite. Just say no, we are all partners now, there is no need to deal with this."
"You guy, my father wants to see you, but you refuse, is there something wrong with you?" Chen Ruxuan said angrily.
Su Anlin said speechlessly: "To be honest, everyone is very busy, so there is no need to be so polite."
"Can't you say that we can meet you? I begged my father for a long time to let you go to the mysterious island."
"Hey..." It is said that those who take advantage of others are short-handed and those who eat others are soft-spoken. This sentence is really good.
Seeing Chen Ruxuan's furious look, Su Anlin could only surrender: "Okay, I can go see your father when I come back."
"Looking at you, why are you a little reluctant?"
"Is there any? If so, it should be because you feel wrong."
"No, no, no, my feeling is not wrong." Chen Ruxuan snorted coldly and stopped worrying about this issue.
"Then let's go, don't keep people waiting," Su Anlin said.
"Okay, they are waiting at the market. This time they are going to a small island. There are many mosquitoes there and the conditions are inconvenient. They are waiting to bring some things there. For example, a tent or something."
Su Anlin asked curiously: "Isn't that mysterious island the territory of your Xiaofeng Villa? You didn't build a house? Why do you still need a tent?"
"Animal tides often appear on the mysterious island, and houses are often washed away not long after they are built, so we have no choice but to give up building houses."
Chen Ruxuan explained.
"The beast tide, it seems there are really many strange beasts." Su Anlin said.
He asked with some confusion: "Since it's just an island, how come there are so many strange beasts?"
He remembered that even in the nearby mountains and forests, it was not easy to encounter strange beasts. Most of them were just poisonous insects.
Chen Ruxuan said: "That mysterious island is very big. The forest is much denser than here, and because of the strong spiritual energy there, the strange animals grow very fast and very big, such as black blood flying insects. The ones there are very important."
It’s more than twice as big as here!”
"Is it because of the aura..." Su Anlin nodded.
"Well, we call it spiritual energy. In fact, in this world, in addition to practicing martial arts, many people also practice magic. I heard that people who practice magic need to absorb spiritual energy. However, in this world, spiritual energy is rich
There are very few places, and most places are very sparse, so it is difficult for those who practice magic to become stronger."
What Chen Ruxuan said was only learned from ancient books at home.
It is said that a long time ago, spiritual energy was still very strong in this world.
At that time, there were countless masters practicing martial arts, and those who learned martial arts were all from the bottom.
Real masters practice magic.
However, as time goes by, the aura of this world seems to be deteriorating, and I don’t know why.
Her words made Su Anlin very surprised. He didn't expect that there is such a thing as magic in this world.
His heart moved, and he was even more looking forward to this trip to the mysterious island.
The two of them talked and soon arrived at the market.
She walked towards an open space.
There were several carriages parked there, with servants waiting beside them.
"Miss Chen."
As soon as Chen Ruxuan passed by, several servants over there bowed their heads and saluted.
"Where is your master? He hasn't come back yet?" Chen Ruxuan asked.
"Not yet. How about I take Miss Chen to find them?" a servant said respectfully.
"Okay, lead the way, I want to buy something by the way."
Although Chen Ruxuan prepared a lot of things in advance, Su Anlin didn't have much, so she had to buy some for him.
Su Anlin didn't want to bother with this. After all, he also had experience living in the mountains and forests.
However, based on Chen Ruxuan's explanation, he knew that the dense forest on the mysterious island was different from other places.
That place is extremely dense, and once people enter, they basically can't see the sun.
All kinds of poisonous insects are ferocious there, and many poisonous insects will take the initiative to attack when they smell human scent.
Even some poisonous insects, such as leeches, which are not aggressive, will burrow into human skin within seconds once bitten.
If a person dies there, he will become a pile of bones shortly after falling to the ground.
Because when a person falls to the ground, various poisonous insects will appear immediately and lie on the body to eat.
Soon, the two of them, led by their slaves, came to a shop selling weapons.
Inside, three men and two women were looking at a bow.
Among the five, the man holding a large black bow was the tallest.
He is the eldest son of the Fan family in the city, his name is Fan Yuqiang.
His health bar is also the highest among people here, reaching 189.
When Fan Yuqiang saw Chen Ruxuan, he smiled and said, "Miss Chen is back."
Several people looked over and noticed Su Anlin next to Chen Ruxuan.
"It seems that this is the recently famous gambling king, Mr. Su Anlin!" Fan Yuqiang greeted with a smile.
Su Anlin clasped his fists: "What kind of gambler is not the king of gambling? Just make a living."
"Master Su, you are being humble. You are now joining forces with Xiaofeng Villa, and you are a member of the Shanhai Gang. I heard that you are currently competing for the deputy head of Honghua Hall. You are a hot shot."
Fan Yuqiang said.
"It's just a false name, do you want to buy a bow?" Su Anlin asked.
Fan Yuqiang smiled and said: "A few of us often go out to play in the wild, and what we usually use most are some bows. No, I just passed by here when I was shopping and saw that this bow is good."
A girl next to her was wearing a black robe and said with a cold face: "What a pity, what a pity!"
Su Anlin asked curiously: "Why is this bow such a pity?"
"The string force is too strong and it can't be pulled."
Fan Yuqiang shook his head and said helplessly.
The woman in black robe had a cold face and nodded: "Not only is the string force too strong, but the entire bow is also heavy, making it difficult to lift it up."
Several people nodded, obviously loving and hating this bow.
The merchant on the side said respectfully: "The strings of this bow are made of crocodile tendons from exotic animals. They are not only tough, but also not afraid of water and fire. The bow body is made of black iron. It is indeed very heavy. My boss is also accepting this bow."
For decoration purposes, gentlemen and ladies, you can take a look at the other styles in my store to ensure your satisfaction."
Fan Yuqiang said: "Well, this is the only way, hey..."
He handed the bow out, but at this moment, Su Anlin stepped in and took the bow.
"Um?"
Fan Yuqiang asked: "Master Su is also interested in bows?"
"I know a lot about it. When I was in my hometown, I hunted a tiger."
Su Anlin said.
He used to use a crossbow.
In a small place, there are few exotic beasts, most of them are ordinary animals, and their defense power is not very high.
But when you come to a place like this, most of them are strange beasts, and the defense is very strong.
The draw force of his crossbow is too weak and it can no longer break through the defense of the alien beast.
Over time, that crossbow was no longer enough.
So when he came here this time, he didn't bring the crossbow with him either, and gave it to his sister Su Yuyu to use.
The woman in black robe was called Liu Yan. She chuckled and said, "That's quite powerful, but it's a pity that this bow is different."
"Yeah, I want to try it." Su Anlin said.
"It's better not to try, I'm going to get this bow." Liu Yan suddenly said.
Chen Ruxuan was curious: "Liu Yan, didn't you just buy a flying thin bow last time?"
