An alchemy furnace fell from the sky

"Black poison..."

Jiao Tong's face was calm, as if he had known all this for a long time.

But Heiyujian's face changed drastically. He turned his head and stared at Xu Fu with burning eyes, as if waiting for Xu Fu's answer.

"Is it when we go to the Black Demon Gate?"

Black Feather Arrow easily thought of the ghost sect.

Xu Fu didn't want to lie, so he nodded slightly.

"Are you looking for the Wanxiang Pill?" Heiyu Arrow asked again.

"When I was fighting with the leader of the Black Evil Sect, I was accidentally bitten by him." Xu Fu hurriedly explained. He had never told Hei Yujian about this because he didn't want Hei Yujian to feel that he owed him too much.

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"I……"

Xu Fu was speechless. Although his trip to Senluomen had been a near-death experience, he had at least escaped unscathed. He had never considered asking Black Feather Arrow for anything in return, and naturally, he had never sought credit from her. Now that Black Feather Arrow had exposed him, Xu Fu was at a loss for words.

"So, you left because of the Black Evil Poison?"

Black Feather Arrow's words sounded like both a question and an answer, and in this way, all the previous doubts were resolved.

She had never thought of herself as the kind of beautiful woman who could make people infatuated, nor had she ever thought her appearance was a big deal. But when her master said that Xu Fu left because of the many black spots on her body, she felt indescribably uncomfortable and hated her appearance for the first time.

Even when she reunited with Xu Fu later, this incident was still a thorn in her heart. Whenever she thought of it, her heart felt like it was being pricked by needles.

Fearing that what her master said was true, she did not dare to ask Xu Fu even when she saw him these days. She just hoped to forget about it as soon as possible.

Now, the thorn has finally been pulled out!

Black Feather Arrow felt relieved.

"I'll go with you!" Black Feather Arrow said firmly.

She had made up her mind that she would repay Xu Fu no matter what. No matter how difficult or dangerous it was, she would follow Xu Fu wherever he went!

"But this time..."

Xu Fu wanted to refuse again, but when he saw Heiyujian's determined eyes, he couldn't say the rest of the words.

"The black evil poisons can sense each other. As long as you remove half of the seal, they will be able to detect it within a hundred miles."

Jiao Gongxing's voice came faintly.

Xu Fu was stunned when he heard this, and touched his shoulder unconsciously, then suddenly realized!

He figured it out. Mo Liuxing had disappeared together with Ye Kui of the Black Evil Sect. As long as he found Ye Kui, he would naturally find Mo Liuxing.

I never thought that the top master of the evil way back then would be the key to my success or failure this time.

"After so many years, could it be that Ye Kui has... died at the hands of Mo Liuxing?" Xu Fu asked with some concern.

Ye Kui was able to fight Mo Liuxing to a draw with the help of the Black Evil Poison. This method of improving one's cultivation level would certainly not last long. After so many years, wouldn't Ye Kui have died under Mo Liuxing's sword?

"Mo Liuxing won't kill him. If he wanted to, he would have killed him long ago!"

After hearing Jiao Gongxing's affirmative answer, Xu Fu breathed a sigh of relief. In that case, let's try our luck! With the induction within a hundred miles, it shouldn't be difficult to find the island.

"Do you know the branch-beaking bird?"

Before going downstairs, Jiao Gongxing asked a question for no reason.

Xu Fu looked confused, but Jiao Gongxing did not explain anything and closed his eyes again.

When Heiyujian packed his bags, Shi Jiuan was nowhere to be found, and only Jiao Tong came to see him off when he left.

Jiao Tong's face looked very bad, not knowing whether it was because Xu Fu had delayed her sleep or for other reasons. It was not until Xu Fu took out the sea dragon meat from his Qiankun bag that her face softened a little.

After Jiao Tong agreed to eat the meat and send the sea dragon bones to Chuncai Lingyuan to make soup, Xu Fu said goodbye to Jiao Tong.

Jiao Tong looked at the still cold sea dragon meat in his hand, swallowed hard, and looked at Xu Fu's back as he left. He seemed to understand why so many girls were thinking about this young man.

……

"Sister Yu, what does the senior mean by the bird holding a branch?"

Xu Fu flapped her Thousand-Li Wings, and the Black Feather Arrow drove her spiritual bow, and the two of them moved rapidly eastward in the night sky.

"The branch-beaking bird is an ordinary bird, and the only ordinary bird that can fly across the ocean..."

"Fly across the ocean?"

Xu Fu was very surprised. No one knew how big the ocean was. Even in books, it was only described as "boundless".

But Xu Fu knew one thing: the vast East China Sea he had seen was just the edge of the vast ocean.

"Can it rest on the water?" Xu Fu asked curiously. He had also seen some water birds that could float on the water, so he guessed that the branch-beaking bird was also such a water bird.

“You can rest on the water, but you can’t float on it.”

Black Feather Arrow seemed to have thought of something, hesitated for a moment, and then continued, "Before crossing the sea, the branch-carrying bird will pick a branch and hold it in its mouth. When it gets tired, it will drop the branch onto the sea surface and rest on it."

"I see, no wonder it's called 'Branch Bird'!"

Xu Fu admired the wisdom of the bird in his heart, and immediately understood the meaning of Jiao Gongxing's words.

"It seems that finding that island will take time. We also need to prepare a 'branch'."

Black Feather Arrow nodded in agreement.

Originally, Heiyujian wanted to pick a piece of wood in the mountains to cross the sea, but Xu Fu said it was not necessary. So the two of them flew eastward and arrived at the seaside at dawn.

Along the coast, the two easily found a small seaside town called "Fengcheng".

Outside Fengcheng is a bay where dozens of fishing boats of various sizes are docked.

It was still early, but there were already many fishing boats sailing on the sea, all going out to fish early.

Xu Fu ordered the Black Feather Arrow to land silently beside a fishing boat and looked at it carefully.

"This boat is okay."

The boat Xu Fu chose was the cleanest of all the boats here. It was about three meters long. Although it was a bit old, the damaged parts had been repaired.

"Brother! Is this your boat?" Xu Fu shouted towards the cabin.

There was a busy middle-aged man in the cabin. His face, neck and exposed arms were all dark. When he heard someone shouting, he stopped what he was doing and walked out of the cabin.

"It's my boat."

The middle-aged man looked honest and answered with a smile.

"I want to buy your boat. How much?"

"Buy a boat?" The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, then his expression changed.

"No, no ...

"Just give me a price, we can negotiate!"

Xu Fu did not give up. Since he had to buy a boat anyway, he had to buy a clean one.

"That's what Old Yu earned after ten years of fishing. He's dearer to me than my own wife!"

"Old Yu, hurry up and ask them how much they're paying. Maybe you'll run into someone who's been ripped off just like you."

On the boats on both sides, two equally dark-skinned men were laughing loudly, their laughter full of mockery.

"Fifty gold, how about that?"

As soon as Xu Fu opened his mouth, the two laughing men seemed to be choked by something and their laughter stopped abruptly.
