Beastmaster

Chapter 117 Preparing to go to sea

The Black Forest trip has once again come to an end.

At this time, Jing Cangming was standing alone at the port of the Western Continent.

That’s right, it’s the port. Although the beast generals distributed on the four continents are different, there are also many merchants who have trade exchanges on various continents.

Outside the central city are four continents in the southeast, northwest, northeast and southwest. Outside the four continents are the wilderness. But outside these continents is an endless ocean that has never been explored by anyone.

No one knows whether there are other continents or other civilizations besides the Western Continent.

At this moment, Jing Cangming was standing at the port, looking for a fishing boat to go out to sea. The purpose of this trip was to go to the Western Ocean outside the mainland to find a marine war beast that suits him.

Going westward from the river bend at the port of the Western Continent, according to the speed of the fishing boats, it will take about a month to reach a branch of the Western Ocean.

If we continue, it may take half a year or even several months to truly enter the Western Ocean.

Some time ago, Zhong Yelin sent a letter saying, "Old Ling has also joined the Pavilion of Ten Thousand Beasts, because Old Ling and the dean once again had a disagreement over the incident involving Jing Cangming and the Pavilion of Ten Thousand Beasts."

"Originally, you stood out after the battle of the scattered people. The dean had a little regret, and after you left, he repeatedly looked for Tu Liyongyi and Yu Xiaoshang to discuss letting them come back, but was rejected every time."

"But he is the dean after all. After being rejected many times, I gave up looking."

"After that, Mr. Ling and the dean had different opinions, and the disagreement lasted for almost three years."

"What Mr. Ling means is that we should protect Jing Cangming and go to war with the Sha family, because Jing Cangming is destined to be a god in the future. Once we go to war with the Sha family, you and others will see the academy's choice, and you will definitely be moved."

Seeing this, Jing Cangming smiled. For some reason, he still felt warm in his heart. But then, the more he looked at it, the angrier he became.

"But what the dean meant is that it is not a wise choice to confront the Sha family for an uncertain future. What's more! This damn dean even issued a wanted order for you in order to please the Sha family. Now the whole city is buzzing with the bounty on you, so you should try to hide yourself and not be discovered."

"Oh, and Fang Tiankuo and Longying have reappeared, still in the southern continent, but we still haven't found any clues. But what is certain is that they are still alive!"

"Pavilion Master! All is well in the Ten Thousand Beasts Pavilion! Please don't worry!"

Jing Cangming's originally stern expression made him burst into laughter, "Haha, this is really funny. This dean is really like a turtle who doesn't even dare to gamble with a beast god that's already on the table. It's no wonder that the Western Continent's Ten Thousand Beasts Academy is so rubbish!"

"But it's good to know that everyone is safe!"

It has been nearly three years since I left, and I have been wandering around every corner of the Great Western Wilderness. I can't help but worry about everyone.

After learning that everything was fine, Jing Cangming felt much more at ease.

At this moment, Jing Cangming was wearing his old black hooded cloak, hiding all his strength, and appeared at the port like a commoner playboy.

As for why they took the boat, it was because there was no place to stay on the sea, and Xiaojiu couldn't reveal his true form, and Xiaoyi couldn't fly. What? The boat was placed in the world ring? As soon as it entered, it was melted by the magma.

The altars of the Western Continent had been completely absorbed, but there were still some dust-like fragments that Jing Cangming had not absorbed. Instead, he stored them up and would absorb them all together when there were enough.

But the weather was not good, and Jing Cangming didn't understand the market conditions of the fishermen. He asked several people in succession, and the answers he got were all, "We are not going to the Western Ocean, we are only going to the branch to catch some fish and then returning."

Even if Jing Cangming offered them several times higher price, still no one was willing to go.

But Jing Cangming really looks down on shallow sea creatures, and the powerful ones are all in the deep sea.

"Oh, what should I do?"

Just when Jing Cangming was at a loss, he suddenly seemed to remember something.

Jing Cangming summoned the Lingteng Dog and rushed towards the Huangjiang Village in Wanshou City like flying.

War beasts like the Chess God Fierce Wave Lion are rare on the mainland, so it is better to be cautious and set off on his way with the Lingteng Dog.

Although Lingteng Dog's speed is not as fast as Xiaoyi Longnu's, its speed is still unmatched by that of ordinary war beasts.

In just half a day, he appeared outside Wanshou City, but Jing Cangming still did not reveal his identity.

Wanshou City has become much stronger with the addition of Mr. Ling, so it has now started to engage in foreign trade.

Jing Cangming lied that he came here because of his admiration for the person, and he got away with it easily.

After entering Wanshou City, they rode at full speed and headed straight for Huangjiang Village.

Outside Huangjiang Village, because it is located in Wanshou City, each village does not have a separate guard.

Jing Cangming entered Huangjiang Village like a passerby.

But his dress still attracted a lot of people's attention.

Some people came up to question directly, while others went to inform the old village chief.

When Jing Cangming is not around, the village chief is still the village director, so people will still go to him if there is anything.

This point has to be praised. No one has relaxed their vigilance at all because of the current comfortable life.

Almost three years have passed. Jing Cangming has grown from thirteen to sixteen years old. The changes in the child are reflected in these few years.

He took off his hood and laughed in a hoarse voice, "Hello uncle, I am a casual cultivator. I came to Wanshou City because of its reputation. Who would have thought that I would end up here."

"Oh, then go ahead and turn around. Remember not to cause trouble. Our two elders from Wanshou City are here," the uncle said seriously.

This is said to intimidate this "outsider" and prevent him from having any improper thoughts.

What's more, he is just a sixteen-year-old child and cannot pose any threat.

Jing Cangming smiled and nodded, indicating that he understood, and then walked straight towards his home.

The people of Huangjiang Village did not relax their vigilance and continued to follow him quietly.

But this had already been discovered by Jing Cangming. Jing Cangming smiled with satisfaction and did not expose the other party, allowing him to follow behind him.

Along the way, you can often see groups of little kids chasing and playing happily, and you can also see groups of adults sitting together and chatting happily.

Jing Cangming looked at all this and sighed in his heart, "It's all worth it."

After crossing the busy street corner, I saw where my home was.

What amazed him was that Jing Cangming's home looked more luxurious than any other house, and it didn't look like it had been renovated for long.

Jing Cangming couldn't quite believe that this was his home, but he still pushed open the door and walked in.

Who knew, as soon as I walked in, before I could even shout "Mom and Dad, I'm back!"

Then the uncle who was following behind called out to him, "Hey! What are you doing!"

The uncle hurriedly ran to Jing Cangming and separated him from his family, fearing that he would do anything wrong to the family.

This sound also attracted the attention of many people. When they saw that it was Jing Cangming's home, they all rushed over.

The noise of the quarrel became louder and louder, and finally attracted the attention of Jingyue in the room.

Jingyue walked out of the house with a bewildered look on her face. "What's going on? Why are you all gathered at my door?"

But before anyone could reply, she saw the handsome young man in black in the crowd.

Jingyue's eyes were instantly filled with tears. She ignored everyone's worried words and pushed everyone away and walked inside.

At this time, Jingyue seemed to be deaf. Everyone around her kept talking, but she couldn't hear a word of what they said. She still walked straight towards the man in black.

Then, under the surprised gaze of everyone, she hugged the man in her arms.

Everyone was shocked. No one had expected Jingyue to do such a thing. Although no one recognized Jing Cangming, no one said that Jingyue was indecent. They were all discussing who this person was.

But it doesn’t matter if everyone else doesn’t recognize him, but how could I not recognize my own son?

"Cangming~!!!" Jingyue cried out Jing Cangming's name.

Jing Cangming also held tightly to his mother whom he had not seen for nearly three years, "Mom! I'm back."

Upon hearing this, the villagers were instantly furious.

“Cang Ming?! You are Cang Ming?!”

"Pavilion Master?"

"village head?"

Even if everyone doesn't believe that the man in front of them is their Pavilion Master and Village Chief, Jingyue already calls him son, so what is there to doubt?

Suddenly everyone's shouting rang out.

It was noisy and bustling, but everyone's faces were filled with happiness and tears.

"Master! The Master is back! Hurry up and inform everyone!" A young man of about seventeen or eighteen years old shouted, and then he went to inform each household.

Jing Cangming hurriedly called him, "I won't be here for long this time and I have to leave. I don't want to alarm everyone, so I'm wearing a hood, so let's stop here, okay? Don't let anyone else know except you guys present!"

Everyone nodded in response. To them, Jing Cangming's words were like an "imperial edict" and no one disobeyed.

At this time, an old man came out from the back of the crowd, leaning on a broken wooden cane, with a hunched back and tears in his eyes.

When everyone saw the old man coming, they all moved aside, making way for him in the middle, and kept shouting, "Village Chief!"

When Jing Cangming saw this thin, hunchbacked old man, he burst into tears instantly, broke free from Jingyue's arms, and rushed towards the old man.

He held the old man tightly and knelt on the ground with his head buried in his arms.

"Grandpa!" Jing Cangming cried.

The old village chief's hands kept shaking, and the walking stick in his hand fell quietly to the ground.

She hugged the young man in her arms tremblingly and said in a trembling voice, "Cang Ming~ is that you? Are you back?"

Jing Cangming burst into tears, "Grandpa! It's me! How did you become like this!" The trembling mixed with crying made everyone around him shed tears.

The village chief laughed and said, "Silly child, this is normal when people get old."

Yes, three years ago, although the village chief was old and frail, he was not like he is now. His hair had fallen out and his gray beard had become much thinner. Although he was hunchbacked before, he looked about 1.7 meters tall. But now he looks less than 1.6 meters tall with a hunchback.

Jing Cangming felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart. He possessed such powerful strength and potential, so why couldn't he resist the deprivation of the God of Time!

Not to mention the old village chief, the people in front of him have aged to varying degrees compared to when he was a child.

Especially Jingyue. Three years ago, Jingyue was still a beautiful woman, but in just three years, her face had many wrinkles and some of her hair had turned white.

"Okay, Cangming, let the village chief go into the house and rest," Jingyue said with a smile, wiping her tears.

Jing Cangming finally reacted and hurriedly helped the village chief into the house.

Jingyue walked over and picked up the broken crutch on the ground and said, "Everyone go back. Thank you all for your concern."

"What are you talking about? Without you, where would Cang Ming come from? Without Cang Ming, would it be possible to have the comfortable life we ​​have now?"

"That's right, Jingyue, if it weren't for Cangming, we would still be living in fear."

"Yeah yeah".

A burst of noisy sound came out and floated into Jingyue's ears.

Jingyue smiled and said, "We are all family, it would be awkward to say these things." Jingyue felt a little proud in her heart.

Everyone said hello and then dispersed.

Jingyue turned around and went back into the house.

In the room, Jing Cangming helped the village chief to sit down, and then he sat next to him.

"Grandpa," Jing Cangming said, still crying.

The village chief touched Jing Cangming's head and said, "Okay kid, what brings you back this time?"

"Oh, by the way, grandpa, please wait for me for a moment," he said and was about to rush to the door.

At this time Jingyue just walked in, "What's wrong, Cangming?"

Jing Cangming asked anxiously, "Mom, where's my dad? Why can't I see him?"

Upon hearing this, Jingyue and the village chief's faces turned a little gloomy.

Jing Cangming felt uneasy when he saw that he hadn't received a response for a long time.

"Mom?" Jing Cangming called softly.

"Son, sit down first and I'll tell you," Jingyue said after taking a deep breath.

Jing Cangming sat obediently next to the village chief.

Jingyue sat opposite.

This house has indeed been renovated, and it is much brighter than before.

Jingyue said, "Child, your father is gone."

"Ah? Gone? What does gone mean?" Jing Cangming said anxiously.

Jingyue said, "After you left last time, your father also left soon after. It has been almost three years now."

"Ah?! Where did he go?"

"There is a dark secret behind your father, but I still don't know this secret. I only know that there are things he has to do."

The village chief also said at this time, "Child, your father and we are not from the same world. He and you are from the same world."

The old village chief did not continue talking after this. No matter how Jing Cangming asked, the village chief's answer was that he was not sure about the details.

How could this be? My father, who usually looks so frivolous, is actually from the same world as me? Doesn't this prove that he is also a beast general? !
