Chapter 404 Letter From the Seaside, Various Strange Phenomena

It can be seen that this pure white pigeon must have experienced a very arduous journey.

Although it was flying with all its strength, its flying attitude was very unstable and wobbly, and it seemed that it could fall down at any time.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Ya immediately stretched out his fingers and gently stirred the air in front of him.

Then something magical happened.

An invisible ripple spread quickly and rushed in front of the carrier pigeon in an instant.

Then a gentle force, like a pair of invisible big hands, gently lifted the exhausted carrier pigeon and brought it to Zhao Ya.

Zhao Ya caught it, and after taking off the letter bag tied between his legs, he quickly took out a piece of dried meat and stuffed it into the pigeon's mouth, and gently stroked its feathers.

The pure real power quickly soothed its muscles that were cramped due to excessive fatigue.

This kind of homing pigeon is actually a strange beast, otherwise it would not be possible to cross a distance of tens of thousands of miles and send messages accurately.

So after Zhao Ya's actions, it quickly recovered.

Immediately afterwards, he saw it fluttering its wings and flying from Zhao Ya's hand, hovering in the air for a few times before landing on his shoulder, and then tilted its head to look at Zhao Ya, as if waiting for his response.

Zhao Ya smiled when he saw this, then opened the envelope and took out the letter paper inside.

Carrier pigeons cannot carry heavy items, so the letter paper is only one thin page, and the message written on it is also very brief.

The letter was sent by Kong Xiangdong.

Zhao Ya and he had made an agreement before they parted. When he leads the team into the snowfields of the north next summer, he must convey information to Zhao Ya at any time.

Especially every move of Wuwang Hai must be closely followed and reported.

So this summer, Zhao Ya received no less than three or four letters from the snowy fields of the north, and the contents recorded in them once again confirmed Zhao Ya's previous guesses.

The unusual movements in Wuwanghai are indeed becoming more frequent.

The rising fog, which was rare before, has happened three or four times this summer. As for the "Sea Dragon King's patrol", it has become a common occurrence.

However, because people rushing to sea this time had taken precautions, the several upsurges of fog did not cause much damage.

On the contrary, thanks to the help of the freeloader leader, Kong Xiangdong and the others' income this year was far higher than in previous years.

Everyone who travels to the sea is happy with their earnings.

This has also resulted in business in the town being more prosperous than in previous years.

Kong Xiangdong once mentioned this in his letter, saying that even the girls who accompanied him were very grateful to Zhao Ya and believed that the good years were largely due to him.

Zhao Ya didn't care much about this. What he was more concerned about was that now that summer was coming to an end, it stands to reason that Kong Xiangdong should be busy leading people to retreat at this time. Why did he go to all the trouble to deliver the message?

After reading this letter, Zhao Ya's expression gradually became serious.

Although brief, the information revealed is important.

Kong Xiangdong said in the letter that there is something wrong with Wuwanghai this year. The weather is very abnormal. Even though it is early autumn, the temperature is still very high.

certainly.

This high is relative to the average temperature in Wuwanghai in previous years. It does not mean that it will reach the level of 17 or 18 degrees all of a sudden, but it will remain at about ten degrees below zero.

That's fine.

You must know that in previous years, even in midsummer, the temperature of Wuwanghai has never reached this high.

Not only that, even the polar night seems to be late.

To this day, the sun still hangs in the sky, bringing little but warm light to the Wuwu Sea.

These two anomalies have made many people who have been living on the beach of Wuwuhai feel incredible.

But these doubts were soon diluted by another important discovery.

Under this abnormal temperature, Wuwanghai's output also increased greatly.

After every low tide, there are countless scales, fish, crabs and shells on the seabed.

This kind of scene is what every seafarer dreams of, so these people are all crazy.

Even if other teams that rush to the sea don't have free help like Kong Xiangdong and others, in this situation, which is like picking up money, these people who rush to the sea still gain a lot.

But Kong Xiangdong smelled danger.

For this reason, he fought against all opinions and forcibly ordered his sea-driving people to relocate despite their pleas.

But Kong Xiangdong also wanted to know what Wuwanghai was doing, so he did not completely leave the northern snowfield.

He took people to move to the front of the Snowy Mountains, which is still some distance from the sea. Even if there is danger, they can escape as soon as possible.

At the same time, Kong Xiangdong also sent people to the beach every day to observe and record the movements of Wuwanghai.

At the end of the letter, Kong Xiangdong also asked Zhao Ya whether his decision was correct.

Zhao Ya put the letter away, pondered for a moment, then turned back to the house, took out a pen and paper, and wrote a reply.

The content of the letter is also very simple.

First of all, Zhao Ya affirmed Kong Xiangdong's approach.

As the saying goes, there must be a monster when something goes wrong.

Wuwanghai, which had an extremely harsh environment in previous years, suddenly changed from normal. Not only was the temperature far higher than in previous years, but the seafood was also much higher.

Coupled with the increasingly frequent mist rising, this is obviously not the so-called "Sea Dragon King" who is really showing mercy.

After all, behind the abnormal temptation, there must be huge risks.

Secondly, Zhao Ya also told Kong Xiangdong that he must ensure his own safety and act when the opportunity arises.

If this situation continues in a few days, then he should take the team away from the northern snowfield first.

The reason why Zhao Ya said this is because he knows that Kong Xiangdong must be facing tremendous pressure at this time.

On one side are other seafarers who make a lot of money every day, and on the other side, he can only stay in front of the snow mountain.

The contrast is so great that it is only for a leader like Kong Xiangdong who is usually very prestigious.

If it were someone else, it is estimated that his subordinates would have been in chaos.

Even so, Zhao Ya can guess the pressure Kong Xiangdong is under.

If this situation continues in a few days, then even if Kong Xiangdong's prestige is usually high, it is estimated that it will be difficult to convince the public.

After all, nothing can compare with naked interests.

It is true that Kong Xiangdong can temporarily control the situation.

But under long-term suppression, it will only lead to the loss of morale and eventually cause the team to fall apart. It will be too late to save the situation at that time.

If Kong Xiangdong is still worried, he can retreat outside the northern snowfield and observe the movements through the white-eating bird leader.

After writing these, Zhao Ya checked carefully again. After making sure that nothing was missing, he put it into the letter bag and tied it to the pigeon's leg.

The whole process, the pigeon waited very obediently, and then looked at Zhao Ya with black oily eyes.

Zhao Ya smiled, stretched out his hand and took out a few pieces of dried meat from his arms, and then fed them to the pigeon.

"Keep it in your stomach and digest it slowly on the way!"

After listening to the instructions, the pigeon seemed to understand, nodded gently, and then flapped its wings and flew into the sky, circling above Zhao Ya.

"Really lazy!"

Zhao Ya complained, and then moved the air in front of him again.

Then an invisible ripple of spiritual power pushed the pigeon from behind, helping it to go down the mountain quickly.

This is like a ship encountering a favorable wind when sailing on the sea, which can greatly save physical strength.

With Zhao Ya's current strength, he can send this carrier pigeon a hundred miles away.

Of course, this is also due to the small size and light weight of this carrier pigeon, and it will also cooperate consciously.

At the beginning, Zhao Ya also tried it for the purpose of experiment.

Unexpectedly, this carrier pigeon remembered it and waited for this "ride" sent by Zhao Ya every time it returned.

After watching the carrier pigeon go away, Zhao Ya smiled and shook his head, then left the courtyard and went to the former master's contribution place to continue discussing the unique skills of Canglong Temple with Shen Yunshen and Qin Jianji.

The distance between Canglong Temple and the northern snowfield is at least more than 20,000 miles if walking.

But the carrier pigeon is different, because it flies at a high speed, so it can avoid the interference of mountains and birds of prey, and secondly, it can travel in a straight line.

But even in this case, the straight-line distance is still thousands of miles away.

This distance is a challenge even for the pigeon, which is a strange beast. It will take about four days to travel at full speed.

While the pigeon was heading towards the northern snowfield, a group of people were hiding in a tent in the camp in front of the big snow mountain, drinking and chatting.

Because of the obstruction of the mountain, even if the sun has not set, the camp area has fallen into darkness.

Because it snowed a little in the evening, the temperature was a little low, but this was not worth mentioning for these sea-hunters who were used to living on the Wuwang Sea.

For example, in this tent at this time, someone took off his shirt and drank shirtless.

The wine was good, and even the dishes were what these sea-hunters were reluctant to eat in previous years.

But this year is different.

Especially with the help of the white-eating bird leader, the sea-hunters under Kong Xiangdong all reaped a lot of rewards, and naturally spent money lavishly.

But at this moment, despite the good wine and good food, the atmosphere in the tent was a little strange.

If before, these seafarers were grateful to their leader, then now, with the passage of time, many people have a strange feeling in their hearts.

Especially after hearing the daily harvest of those who still stayed at the Wuwang Beach, many people's thoughts have quietly changed.

"Today, the big leader sent Xiao Liuzi to the beach to detect the situation. According to him after he came back, the seafarers on the beach are making a lot of money now. They can harvest at least three full buckets of dried fish every day, not to mention other harvests." Someone whispered while drinking.

These remarks made the atmosphere in the tent more and more dull.

Some people showed envy in their eyes.

After all, that's all money!

You know, even in this year with the best returns, each of them only harvested a little more than one bucket of dried fish every day on average, and the other harvests were no different from previous years.

This is enough to make them ecstatic.

You can imagine how crazy those who harvested two or three buckets of dried fish every day are now.

Suddenly.

Someone slammed the table and said with a complaint: "I really don't understand why the chieftain is so cautious."

"Isn't it just that the temperature this year is a little higher than in previous years, and the polar night comes a little later? Instead of seizing this God-given opportunity to make a fortune, we actually hid in front of the snowy mountains for the so-called safety, which caused our brothers It’s really frustrating to just watch others make money on the beach.”

The speaker had a beard all over his face, but he obviously had some prestige among these seafarers, and his words resonated with many people.

"Who says it's not? I don't understand what the big leader who was fearless in the past is afraid of this time? Could it be that he was frightened by the rising fog last year?" someone echoed.

"This rising fog is really scary, but as long as we send someone to look out and discover it in advance, it's actually nothing," said the bearded man.

"I heard people say that the big boss seemed to think that this year's abnormal weather meant something ominous, so he hid here."

"Then why don't you just leave? Are we brothers hiding here on purpose to watch others get rich?" Someone suddenly sneered.

These words were very rude, and everyone turned their attention to the speaker. Only then did they realize that the speaker was a young man who had joined the team this year.

"Shh, that's our big boss, please be polite!" someone warned.

The young man also felt that he had made a mistake, so he temporarily kept his mouth shut.

"I also heard that the reason why the big boss hid here and sent people to the beach every day to check the latest progress was to report the latest situation to the young man from last year."

After hearing these words, many people shut their mouths, even the bearded guest who was the first to complain.

Because almost all of the people present have inherited Zhao Ya's kindness. Not to mention the life-saving grace last year, the reason why they have gained so much this year is largely due to the bird that Zhao Ya "gifted" to the big leader. Freeloader leader.

So when they heard it was because of him, these people stopped talking.

But the young man who just spoke didn't care about that.

Because he just joined this year, he has no impression of Zhao Ya, so naturally he doesn't have to worry about it.

Therefore, he took the lead and said: "No matter who it is because of, delaying it like this is not an option after all!"

"Everyone, I am different from you. You have all been earning money for several years and have some savings on hand. You don't have to worry. But I am different. I am full of hunger now. I am just waiting for this time to turn around when I go back. ”

"So I don't know what you guys are thinking. I plan to secretly go to the beach tomorrow to see if I can get something back. Is anyone with me?"

After hearing this young man's words, many people's faces showed emotion.

But when they think of Kong Xiangdong's usual prestige, these people all wilt again.

Seeing this scene, the young man sneered.

"Okay, then I'll go by myself tomorrow, go back to sleep, and say goodbye."

After saying this, the man stood up and was about to walk out. At this moment, the door curtain was lifted, and Kong Xiangdong walked in from the outside.
