Chapter 268 Fishman’s Wine (2)
Yu Kou said, “Stop looking. The real black water is three meters below the surface. That thing is like glue. Haha, that is the area where the Black Fishman is active. Remember, it doesn’t matter how you fight against the Black Fishman, but don’t chase three meters below the surface. That black water will really sink you in.”

“I see,” said Lei Xingfeng.

Xin Zhaolun said, “Are there many outsiders here?” Does he mean that there are many foreign cultivators?

Qi Mei Yun said, “A lot. Because of the Black Spirit Fruit, this is a place that high-grade female cultivators must come to.”

Xin Zhaolun nodded. Female cultivators, especially female high-level Adepts, could often find many helpers. It was impossible not to be lively here.

Lei Xingfeng already knew that there was an all-female Mystery Sect in Mystery Sect. The Mystery Sect where Little Sister was located basically didn’t have any men. Even if there were, they were still peripheral members. Moreover, the Mystery Sect where Little Sister was located was extremely powerful, even stronger than her own Mystery Sect.

In the boundless black waters, one could occasionally see a patch of land. The land here was actually a small island in the black water.

The island is full of low plants, few tall trees, all low bushes, Qi Meiyun said: “The small island here is often flooded, so there are no very tall trees, hehe, we can rest on these small islands to camp.”

“This is still the outskirts of the Black Waters. We’re going to the place where the Black Fishmen are gathered. Well, there should be a battle.”

Xin Zhaolun said disapprovingly, “Those Black Fishermen shouldn’t pose much of a threat. The key is to harvest the Black Spirit Fruit. I heard that the Black Spirit Fruit grows underwater.”

Yu Kou said, “they do grow underwater, “Normally, the fruit is about a meter away from the surface of the water. If it grows on land, we don’t need to care at all. We just need to snatch it. But underwater, it’s very troublesome. The Black Fishmen can display their strength better in the water. Furthermore, once they are injured, they will quickly sink into the black water. We try not to touch that thing.”

Now that Lei Xingfeng understood that it was no wonder that cultivators and Black Fishermen could not coexist peacefully, because the things that cultivators wanted were all cultivated by Black Fishermen, Lei Xingfeng said, “Can’t I buy them from Black Fishermen?”

“Stop dreaming,” Yu Kou said. “The Black Fishmen don’t even know how to trade. Furthermore, once they discover that cultivators snatch the Black Spirit Fruits, they will completely destroy them if they can’t beat them.”

Lei Xingfeng was stunned and said, “Holy shit, this is forcing us to fight to the death!”

Yu Kou said, “That’s right, move quickly. Kill the Black Fishman as fast as you can, and then harvest the fruit quickly. Otherwise … you’ll find that you won’t get anything.”

“Will they easily destroy the Black Spirit Fruit?” Lei Xingfeng asked.

“It won’t be easily destroyed,” Yu Kou said. “The Black Spirit Fruit is also an extremely important resource in the Black Fishman race. Without the Black Spirit Fruit, their race will not be able to grow.”

Lei Xingfeng said, “In that case, they will only destroy the Black Spirit Fruit when they are in despair.”

Yu Kou nodded and said, “That’s right, that’s why we have the chance to obtain it. Otherwise, as long as they discover us, they will destroy the Black Spirit Fruit. We won’t be able to obtain the Black Spirit Fruit.”

Xin Zhaolun said, “In other words, we can’t let the resisting Black Fishman feel despair. Otherwise, there won’t be anything.”

Yu Kou pointed not far away and said, “Look, this is a submerged island!”

Looking down from the sky, a light color appeared in front of him. Lei Xingfeng said, “Hidden island? What do you mean?”

Yu Kou smiled and said, “The submerged island is under clear water. The shoals on the black water are usually about a meter underwater. Haha, that is usually a good place for the black fish man to bury wine.”

Xin Zhaolun said, “Big Senior Apprentice Brother, do you mean there is wine hidden on the submerged island below?”

Yu Kou said, “Bullshit, when did I say there was wine hidden in the submerged island?” I’m just saying that this submerged island is where the Black Fishman hides his wine, but there may not be any here. Even if there is … can you find a burial place? “This submerged island … If you want to dig it all out, hehe, you don’t have to do anything else. Furthermore, even if you dig it all out, if there’s no Black Fishman to hide the wine, you’ll be wasting your time.”

Everyone understood this principle. There were countless hidden islands. Heavens knew which island the Black Fishman was hiding wine on. To be able to obtain the Black Fishman’s wine was a coincidence. It was too difficult to discover it specifically. The Black Fishman’s wine was nothing in itself. It was just a special delicacy. Therefore, cultivators would not take the initiative to discover it.

Lei Xingfeng swept his eyes and found nothing special. He had great confidence in his eyes now. If there was really wine hidden in the submerged island, he would definitely be able to see the signs.

However, Lei Xingfeng’s worries weren’t here. He was thinking about how to get more Black Spirit Fruits. Since it was a material used by women, and since he had already entered the Black Waters, getting some Black Spirit Fruits for his little sister was a task he had given himself.

Yu Kou explained a few more words before saying, “Alright, let’s head to the center of the black waters. Well, we don’t need to go to the real center. We’re looking for the small tribe of the Black Fishman. The big tribe is not easy to deal with. There are too many enemies and it’s easy to get into chaos. The small tribe is our target.”

After flying over the three submerged islands, Lei Xingfeng saw a different place. At the edge of a submerged island, he saw a faint green light coming out from the water. Based on his experience, he knew that there were treasures in the soil underwater. As for what treasures they were, he needed to dig them out to see.

Lei Xingfeng suddenly stopped moving forward and said, “Everyone, wait a moment!” His body had already plunged into the water.

The water was at most 1.5 meters deep. Underwater was the submerged island. The water flowed rapidly here, so the bottom was covered with pebbles the size of a bowl. As Lei Xingfeng waved his hand, an invisible force erupted and immediately lifted the pebbles off the bottom of the water.

The silt immediately spread out, dyeing the clear water, but in a few breaths, the water swept away the dirty water, exposing the messy pebbles.

Yu Kou and the others landed with Lei Xingfeng. One by one, they hovered around and watched curiously as Lei Xingfeng was busy. After a moment, the pebbles and sand under the water were lifted. Under the washing of the current, they could clearly see a bunch of grape-like objects sticking together. Each of them was the size of a football from Lei Xingfeng’s previous life. They were neatly arranged in a bunch and slightly swayed in the water waves.

Yu Kou was shocked to the extreme. He said, “This, this fucking Black Fishman’s Tibetan wine, how did A-Feng know that there was one here?”

Qi Mei Yun was also very surprised. She said, “Tibetan wine? What kind of Tibetan wine is this? A string of round balls?”

Lei Xingfeng dragged a bunch of balls and straightened his waist. “This is Tibetan wine? What a strange trick.” He said.

Yu Kou quickly flew to Lei Xingfeng’s side, He directly fell into the water. He bent down to help Lei Xingfeng lift the ball. After observing it for a while, he couldn’t help but exclaim, “Good stuff! It has been hidden for at least a few decades, maybe even a hundred years. This must be forgotten wine, or the wine of a small tribe. This tribe was either destroyed or migrated.”

Lei Xingfeng carefully examined it. It was about the same size as the football in his previous life. He didn’t know what kind of container it was. It was because the wine was wrapped in a translucent layer of soft skin. It was this layer of soft skin that protected the wine inside. The color of the wine was even more special. It was dark green, giving off an extremely strange feeling.

Yu Kou said, “This is a top-grade Black Fishman Tibetan wine. En, no, it’s close to top-grade. A real top-grade Tibetan wine with a black color. This is still a bit green. Perhaps it will be completely black in a few years.”

Lei Xingfeng said, “Well, how should I store this?”

Yu Kou said excitedly, “Good collection. Let me tell you something. I remember you have quite a few wooden barrels made of lacquer ebony, right?”

Lei Xingfeng nodded and said, “Well, yes, I made a lot of ebony barrels.”

Yu Kou smiled and said, “That’s it. Put the wine into a wooden bucket together. When you get home, find a time to use a good crystal bottle or porcelain bottle. Also, the cork must be painted ebony. This way, it can be stored for hundreds of years without any problems. And the longer it lasts, the more delicious the wine will be.”

Lei Xingfeng immediately took out a person-tall wooden bucket and put the water and wine into it. He used a total of five big wooden buckets before he finished filling the excavated wine.

Yu Kou clicked his tongue in surprise and said, “This Tibetan wine is enough to exchange for hundreds of sealing rings. Haha, I’m beginning to believe in your luck.”

Lei Xingfeng smiled and said, “When we go back, everyone will have a share.” He said that everyone had a part to play, and that was to say, even the guards had a part.

Xin Zhaolun clicked his tongue in surprise. This Tibetan wine was really interesting. There were about a dozen or so of them in a string. It was exactly one barrel. Each Tibetan wine ball was connected together, and when picked up, it was a string. There were a total of five strings here. There were 70 to 80 Tibetan wine soft balls. According to his estimate, a single ball could hold about three to five jin of wine.

Yu Kou said, “Alright, I hope I can find it again next time. Haha, this is the first time I’ve seen Tibetan wine like this. Haha, I drank it once before. It should be a Tibetan wine that has been packed separately.”

Lei Xingfeng said, “Does this wine have a name?”

“Yes, some are called Fishman Wine and some are called Black Wine,” said Yu Kou. “However, because of the small quantity, many people do not know about this wine. It is said that this wine is very popular in Lord, so we can exchange Fishman Wine for Seal Rings.”

When Lei Xingfeng dug up the wine, he knew that the Black Fishman’s wine was no secret to him. As long as he had it, he would be able to find it.

Although he had never tasted Fishman Wine before, Lei Xingfeng knew that it was enough for him to exchange it for a seal ring. If he didn’t like to drink it, he would take it out to exchange for a seal ring. Even if he made a gift, it was still a good thing, because taking it out wouldn’t hurt.

Lei Xingfeng looked around and soon lost interest. There shouldn’t be any wine in the surroundings.

Yu Kou said, “I know a good place. Do you want to go take a look?”

Qi Mei Yun said, “Is there a Black Spirit Fruit?”

Yu Kou said, “No, it’s an abandoned submerged island of a large tribe. It’s a very, very large submerged island. Well, it can’t be said to be abandoned. It’s because this large tribe was completely destroyed by cultivators. Mm, it was destroyed by a Lord …”
