Chapter 2556 There are no fish in the sea
“I’ve made up my mind! I’m going to have seafood!” She smiled as she stood up, rolled up her sleeves, and proceeded to the beach. After adjusting her spirit energy breath, she walked on tiptoe on the water.
When she reached the deeper section and peered beneath the surface, she was surprised to see that there were no fish swimming in the water. The sea splashed when she shot numerous spirit energy breaths, but no living animals that she could eat emerged.
“Strange! Even if there’s a saying, “Fish won’t come when the water is too clear”, this is the sea! There has to be some seafood to eat!” She murmured. She tried again and still didn’t see any fish or shrimp.
“Hey, Miss, don’t waste your time here. This place is unlike anything. Even if you try again, you won’t be able to catch a fish.”
Just as Feng Jiu was becoming perplexed, an elderly voice mingled with laughter was suddenly heard. She turned around and noticed a grey-haired old man coming her way with a crutch in hand, waving and shouting at her.
She flitted over the sea on tiptoe and returned in a few twirls to the shore. She approached the elderly gentleman and inquired, “Uncle, why am I unable to catch fish in this location? Such a big sea must be teeming with fish!”
“Hahahaha!”
The old man laughed as he held his beard. “I knew you weren’t a local as soon as I heard it. I will tell you! Because there are so many sea monsters, no one has ever thought of getting any seafood from this sea.”
Feng Jiu was stunned. “Sea monster? What kind?!
“They’ve never been seen before. In any case, they’re large, man-eating sea monsters. All of the fish and shrimp in the sea have been devoured by the sea monsters, leaving nothing for us.” The old man smiled and went to the beach, where he sat on sand that had not been beaten by the waves.
“Normally, only a few people visit this location. You’re a young woman. Why are you here by yourself?” The old man stroked his beard. He couldn’t help but smile when his beaming eyes fell on Feng Jiu. ” Miss, you are so beautiful. I’ve seen a lot of remarkable women, but this is the first time I’ve seen anyone like you.”
Feng Jiu chuckled when she heard this. “Uncle, thank you for your kind words. I was starving. Because there was a sea nearby, I suppose there would be plenty of tasty food. Surprisingly, I didn’t see a single fish.”
She paused and looked at the old man. “I don’t see anyone else in this area. Where did Uncle come from? What are you doing in this place?”
“Who was it that said there was no one? Have you taken that route?” The old man extended his hand and pointed to a hillside.
At this moment, a few house corners were visible through the mist. It’s a little bizarre. She had arrived here on her flying sword and she had a clear view of this part of the land from the air. She said this because she saw no houses in this region, but what was the deal with the roofs on the distant slopes? She was certain she wouldn’t miss it.
“There was no one in the area when I first took a look. Why now…” She spoke with doubts. Her gaze shifted from the distance to the old man beside her. She saw, however, that the old man had buried his crutch in the sand in front of him and sat cross-legged as if sleeping or cultivating.
“Uncle?” She called out.
