Chapter 486: Bloody Heart Lotus Seed
If you want to join the corpse recovery team, it's not as simple as you think?
This answer made Zhou Fan slightly stunned, "Why do you say that?"
"The answer is simple, because the adults are newcomers, and every departure from the ship comes with great danger, and each corpse salvage team chooses members with great caution. ”
"If you think about it, you can understand that the danger of going out of a ship sometimes comes not only from the outside, but also from the inside. The middle-aged man said with a blank face.
Zhou Fan frowned slightly, it was indeed like what this person said, on the lotus pond, if there was a conflict between the same boat corpse salvage team due to some problems, it was likely to capsize, and without the boat, the hope of surviving would become very slim.
If so, the corpse team will indeed be cautious in selecting members.
"Isn't there a corpse salvage team that will accept new people?" Zhou Fan asked a little puzzled.
Every year, a lot of new blood will pour in here, and if the corpse salvage team doesn't accept new people, where will these new people go?
"For newcomers who come alone, a safer way is to mix here for a while, and after getting familiar with the various corpse recovery teams, they can naturally join. ”
"If the newcomers want to get out of the boat as soon as possible, there are only two ways, the first is that they have come with multiple people, rent a boat and go out by themselves, and the second is that if they are a lone traveler like an adult, then they can only get together with a few newcomers. ”
"But these two methods are very dangerous, because a bunch of newcomers are on a boat and are not familiar with Liantang, so going out is equivalent to death. The middle-aged man said as he took out a lotus seed from his pocket and chewed it.
"There should be more than two ways. Zhou Fan's face was calm, "Otherwise, you wouldn't have stood here and talked to me for so long." ”
"I have a way of recommending adults to join the corpse salvage team. The middle-aged man nodded.
"What can you do?" Zhou Fan sneered, "I'm a stranger, can you say a few words, and there will be a corpse salvage team willing to risk taking me?"
"You can't tell the adults. The middle-aged man shook his head, "This is the secret of my money." ”
Zhou Fan was silent for a moment, "Where can I find you?"
"There's a shop on the east side of the street that sells talismans, and if you want to find me, just go and tell the shopkeeper to find Lao Xiu. The middle-aged man didn't say much, turned and left.
Zhou Fan took his brother around Tang Street, and when he passed by the east side of the street, he glanced at the Fu shop, did not go in, but walked towards the shore.
It's afternoon, and there are quite a few boats docked on the shore, and boatwrights are repairing them.
Some of these ships can only accommodate three or four people, while others can accommodate about a dozen people, but they are generally not large ships.
He asked someone and learned a few more things.
The boat usually chooses early in the morning, and the boat will come back near dusk.
The reason for this is because Liantang is very weird, all kinds of situations will happen when you go in, and no one knows if you can return on time, and if you get entangled in things, you will always have more time to deal with the difficulties encountered when you go out in the morning.
Otherwise, once it gets dark, it will still be left in the lotus pond...... Very few boats make it possible to return from a safe night in the lotus pond.
Therefore, the departure time will not be late until noon at the latest, and only stunned young people dare to choose to row into the depths of the lotus pond in the afternoon.
Zhou Fan did not leave the riverbank, but waited patiently on the bank.
After waiting for a while, the shore became more and more lively, and all kinds of people appeared, among which there were some people in extraordinary clothes surrounded by warriors.
Zhou Fan learned from the conversation with some people next to him that those people were either businessmen or stewards sent by some families in Gaoxiang County, and they came here mainly to buy rare materials in the hands of the ship's corpse recovery team.
It didn't take long for ships to come back one after another.
Some of the warriors on the ship were smiling, some of the warriors were gloomy, and some of the warriors on the ship were injured, all kinds of situations.
As soon as these ships docked, many people rushed over, some to inquire about the news, and some to ask if they had found some special materials.
Of course, there are also those who offer to buy.
Some of the corpse collection team only said a few perfunctory words without saying much, and some directly sold the obtained things to merchants or family stewards.
Most of these corpse teams did not leave immediately, and those who stayed wanted to see how the corpse teams that had not yet returned were harvested.
Zhou Fan just stood aside and watched calmly, he came here more to observe and increase his experience.
"Have you found the blood heart lotus seeds? The price is negotiable. A fat-faced businessman shouted with a smile at the corpse salvage team.
"Shopkeeper Liu, you have worked in vain, even if you really have bloody lotus seeds, the price you offer will not be your turn. A steward of the family said with a mocking face.
Shang Jia rolled his eyes, and said without fear: "There is really a bloody lotus seed, and my offer will definitely be higher than yours." ”
In this kind of place, there are also rules of this place, and if you dare to come here to collect materials, even a businessman will have his background, and he will not be afraid of a family steward.
"That's when we know. The housekeeper sneered.
"Don't quarrel with the two of you, I haven't seen the shadow of the bloody lotus seed, what's the use of you arguing about this?" said a diminutive businessman with a smile.
The housekeeper and Shopkeeper Liu shut up.
The corpse salvage team that came back from the boat did not react much, because they did not have bloody lotus seeds in their hands.
The Blood Heart Lotus Seed is such a rare thing, at most some of them are picked back in a week, and bringing back the Blood Heart Lotus Seed once is equivalent to getting rich overnight for the martial artists here.
When Zhou Fan heard the bloody lotus seed, his eyes lit up slightly.
Because the main purpose of coming to the Lotus Pond was also the Blood Heart Lotus Seed, which could speed up the cultivation speed of the Blood Exchange Stage cultivators, and was one of the most precious materials in the Lotus Pond.
It is also because it can help the cultivation of the blood exchange section cultivators, the blood heart lotus seed will be popular, and the price will soar.
With his current net worth, he can't afford to buy a few bloody lotus seeds, of course, even if he can afford it, this thing is often priceless.
Maybe he could catch the Blood Heart Lotus Seed in the Gray River space, but his Gray Worm was not enough, and in his opinion, it was not a good thing to rely too much on the boat.
Coming to the Seven Lotus Pond, firstly, he can cultivate, and secondly, if he can pick the Blood Heart Lotus Seed, then for him, he will be able to complete the cultivation of the blood exchange section faster.
But it is not a simple matter to find the bloody lotus seed.
As the sun set, more and more boats returned, but they still didn't see the corpse salvage team get the bloody lotus seeds.
However, it is not ruled out that someone got the bloody lotus seed and hid it.
It's just that this possibility is very small, after all, there is generally more than one person in the corpse salvage team, and there may be more variables after going ashore, so they tend to sell the materials in their hands as soon as possible, so as to exchange for money and other money.
Unless there is a blood-exchanging martial artist on the ship who buys all the blood-hearted lotus seeds, but for the blood-exchanging martial artist, this is another big amount of money.
"It's getting dark, there shouldn't be any more, how many ships are back now?" surnamed Liu Shangjia asked a martial artist beside him impatiently.
"Master, twenty ships went out here today, and now eighteen are back. The warrior replied with a smile.
"In other words, two ships were sunk, is the loss so big?" shopkeeper Liu's fat face trembled.
Even if the mortality rate is high, it is already terrible to sink one in seven days and eight days, and now there are two missing ships in one day?
The corpse salvage team that came back also had a gloomy face.
Soon someone snorted.
Everyone looked up at Liantang.
Under the lotus leaves of Tian Tian, a boat floated back.
The ship was empty.
