Chapter 152 Land and Sea

Coastal marine transportation is an important way of exchange and communication between countries relying on seas, because many countries have natural dangers, and land transportation is more difficult than coastal transportation.

Wu Sheng came to Caihai County and saw a different custom and appearance from inland counties such as Tianan and Yuan'an.

Coastal fishermen pay more attention to their behavior than inland farmers, and they have many unique taboos and customs.

For example, fishermen have a taboo of "crossing" when eating fish, and never flip the whole fish when eating fish on a plate. Because they often catch fish in the sea, the most worrying thing is to capsize the boat, so they are afraid of "crossing".

Fishermen should not throw their bowls and chopsticks into the sea, because throwing their rice bowls into the sea casually means looking down on the fishermen and the professions they are engaged in.

When fishermen are sailing or working on a sea, they will ignore the taboo when they encounter drifting corpses and will salvage the corpses and bury them ashore. If a person or animal bone is caught during fishing, it is taboo to throw them back to the sea and pick them up and place them on the shore.

Unlike inland family surnames, fishermen often collectively worship an ancestor according to the region, regardless of whether there is a difference in blood relationship between the surnames and the surnames.

Many of the ancestor spirits worshipped by many fishermen are good spirits who have been in the Yang world for a long time, and they have countless good relationships. If they are unwilling, Black and White Impermanence will not force these ancestor spirits to the Yin and Yang Realm.

Generally, these ancestor spirits will not appear in the Yin-Yang Book, they have their own mission.

The protection of the ancestral spirits to fishermen is not as bounded by the bloodlines as the ancestral spirits in the inland ancestral halls. They will protect every worshipper from harassment by the evil spirits of water ghosts and protect those long-distance ships.

The existence form of these ancestor spirits is very similar to the legendary gods in the [Source World], but their status and abilities are much worse.

The coastal ancestors have a good relationship with the Black and White Impermanence. Many times they will take the initiative to collect some evil ghosts they captured and the souls of important worshippers, and hand them over to the Black and White Impermanence to lead them to the Yin and Yang Realm.

Only those wealthy families in the inland will invest in asking practitioners to send their family members' souls to the gate of ghosts to prevent them from being involved in the Three Path Rivers.

The coastal ancestors also served as the task of those practitioners. Because most of them are good spirits with many good relationships and their strength is not bad, most of them can see and communicate with them, they simply handed over the collected souls to the black and white impermanence to send them to the Yin and Yang realm for [Murder] value.

Of course, most of these dead souls are not high and not very large in number, and will not cause competition among all parties. Many black and white impermanence will only collect the dead souls in the hands of coastal ancestors when passing by here by, and most of them will not come here often.

To attract the dead souls of the fishermen on the coast, they often need to wait, because they often die from various accidents after going to sea. Black and white impermanence generally does not search for these dead souls all over the sea, but waits for the souls of the deceased to be transported back to the coast with the corpse before being taken.

This gave Wu Sheng a lot of time to wander among the coastal cities, allowing him to appreciate the style of the coastal cities and observe the conscripted people who came here.

The development level of coastal cities is mostly not as good as that of inland cities, which is very different from the modern [Source World].

On the one hand, because coastal civilizations emerged lately, they were not valued; on the other hand, due to the constraints of marine water monsters and island monsters, the place would not develop too fast. In addition, the [Life World] was still in ancient times. The ancient shipping was not as developed as modern times, and it was impossible to bring development opportunities like modern times to these cities.

You can see demon clans that are not visible in the inland city at all. They walk and trade in human cities, which is also an important feature here.

The coastal area is half of the territory of the demon clan, and they are not afraid of the human race here.

The practitioners here will not kill the demon clans in the city for no reason. They have adapted to each other's existence and are in a state of balance.

However, the demon race and the human race belong to different races after all. Although the souls are almost the same in nature, they can be peaceful in the city. After some protected areas, they may be secretly attacked.

Like ordinary people and wild animals, human race and demon race hunt each other, not for hatred, but for survival and promotion resources.

Wu Shenglai used a place called Buming City as a temporary residence point, and within a few days he found some recruits here.

Most of these recruits are acting in the form of small teams and are integrating into the practitioners.

The first batch of recruits who entered the [Life Realm] and survived were all elites. They were not many, and they were cautious and orderly in their work, and soon they integrated into local practitioners.

Most of the conscripted people gathered in a remote place called Suyu Inn.

This is a temporary residence found by a major organization that dominates the world and then slowly gathers many conscripts, and few indigenous people come here.

Wu Shenghua became a physical form and successfully got involved in the recruited person. No one noticed anything abnormal about him.

Because of the "life and death test" arranged by the master, there are many lone heroes like Wu Sheng in Suyu Inn.

"Lao Lin, I went to the sea to the Black Reef again. How about it, what good things have been obtained?"

"With our new cultivation methods, what good things can we get, that is, the little demon's edge and corner materials."

This is the most common conversation style that Wu Sheng heard in Suyu Inn. Black Reef is the most commonly mentioned by the recruits. Wu Sheng still doesn’t know where it is.

Although the conscripted person, known as "Lao Lin", said he had not gained anything, his constant smile undoubtedly showed that he must have gained a lot.

It happened that a man named "Lao Lin" sat at Wu Sheng's table casually.

Lao Lin looked about forty years old, and from his appearance, he should be a warrior. As soon as he sat down, he called the inn waiter and ordered some food and drink.

"Brother Lin looks in a good mood. I, Wu Sheng, please take care of me. I wonder where this black reef is?"

Seeing that Lao Lin had finished his work, Wu Sheng handed over a secondary Yin stone while complimenting.

He sat here for a while and found that many information or item transactions in Suyu Inn were completed directly on the dining table with secondary Yin stones.

After following the local customs, Wu Sheng also handed over what he wanted to know and the rewards.

When Lao Lin saw the Yinshi, he was very polite. While quietly taking the secondary Yinshi into his pocket, he said:

"This brother Wu Sheng must have just arrived in Buming City for a short time, otherwise he wouldn't have even known about Black Reef."

"Yes, Brother Lin, I did come here for the first time. I spent some time in the inland city, but there were lonely ghosts everywhere, so it was hard to get along. I'm looking for an opportunity to come to Buming City to see if there are any opportunities here."
