[Through] Delicious Journey

Berry Tart Island is located in the northwest sea area of ​​the North Snow Mountain, and is one of the oldest islands in the nut coastline. The A-grade chocolate liquid and puppet pronuclei they are looking for this time are unique specialties on the huge oyster mushroom rock in the center of the island.

Now that the airship is off, there are still 9 days before the completion of the decoration.

The vice city Hoba City.

"It smells so good." Ying Cui sniffed, "It smells like roasted chestnuts in sugar."

The landing point of the airship is set in the city of Heba, so there is no such cheating rules as the city of Karel.

A few steps after landing, there is a small trading market, which is full of various fruits collected from the nut coastline, which are the most abundant commodities in Hoba, and there are many tourists who come to buy some special products by boarding the airship.

Seeing the greedy eyes of the three people, Yi Nie touched her nose helplessly, and went to the side to buy a bag of loose-sized nuts.

The so-called hodgepodge is to mix fruits of various prices together, grab a handful, and get whatever you get. As for whether you can get a high price, it all depends on luck.

Generally, this kind of sales is most common at the airship docking station, which can help you quickly understand the strange fruits of the city where you land, and find out the one you like the most.

"Peanut?" In Ying Cui's hand was a gourd-shaped nut, which looked like a peanut, but it had a hard shell, a smooth surface without grain, and it was not the color of a salty peanut. "How do I eat it? Do you have tongs or something like that?" thing?"

"Pliers, why do you want that thing?" Yi Nie took the peanut, and when she pressed her fingers hard, it split into two petals, exposing the brown flesh inside, which is also shaped like a gourd connected together. "This is called Xinghuan fruit." Peel off the flesh and hand it over It came to Ying Cui's mouth, "Try it."

"Hmm." He held it in his mouth and chewed it, "It's very crunchy and fragrant, but a bit astringent."

"Well, usually you have to fry it again, adding some dried bamboo vegetables will taste better."

"Brother should look at this." Chabei handed over the things as if offering a treasure.In the palm of his hand, the half-shelled fruit revealed the fiery red fruit inside. When placed in the sun, the luster turned out to be a bit like a gemstone.

"Huh." Yi Nie's voice was soft, rubbing the child's head with her big hand, and said with a smile, "This is Miga fruit, which is considered a high-grade ingredient. You are lucky."

"High-end ingredients." Chabe asked cautiously, "Is it expensive?"

"Well, it's 3000 kara for one dian."

"Huh, so much?" The child widened his eyes, looked at the gem-like color reluctantly, and put it in Ying Cui's hands, "Then give it to Brother Ying, it can help the family."

Ying Cui was taken aback, amused but also a little moved, peeled off the remaining husk of the Mijia fruit, and stuffed it into the child's mouth, "You eat it, it's only 3000 Nan per dian, you don't have any People charge."

Then he pushed Yi Nie with his elbow, and gave a disdainful look, "Xiao Bei knows how to supplement the family, so you spy on my little coffers all day, are you ashamed?"

The corner of the latter's mouth was raised, and then he grinned shamelessly, and leaned over, "Family, you have to admit that it belongs to my family first, and I will support you in the future."

Ying Cui rolled her eyes, "Boring."

At this moment, there was a sudden noisy noise in front, and a group of people poured out from nowhere. When they took a closer look, they turned out to be parading like fish lanterns.

Heba City said that the peninsula is more suitable. It is the third closest sub-city to Ancheng, Xiancheng, and it is also the only city adjacent to the Nut Coast. Apart from the delicious nuts, it is also famous for its fishery culture like all coastal cities. .

Therefore, it is not unusual to see fish lantern parades on the street.

"Those are made by people, right? They seem real." Ying Cui exclaimed.

Generally, the appearance of the characters in the Lantern Festival parade will be more or less broken because the actors and props are too fake, but in front of them, this can give people a sense of reality.

With the appearance of the fish lantern, the road in the middle of the street was given way, and all the pedestrians were squeezing to the two sides. Ying Cui could only poke his head and look forward, while trying to reach out to pull Chabelle over.

The child's cheeks were bulging, and he was eating the Miga fruit that he had just stuffed into his mouth. When he saw the fish lantern approaching, his eyes widened curiously, and he squeezed out unconsciously. Location.

"Xiao Bei, be careful, don't..." Ying Cui was pushed out by the crowd as soon as she thought about it, and she became anxious. He could no longer see Cha Bei's watermelon head.

The parade of fish lanterns is very long. After the fish head lanterns in the front pass, there are various fish with strange appearances in the middle. It's fish lips, and even the skin color has changed. At first glance, it doesn't look human at all.

There was applause from the crowd around them, most of them were tourists who arrived in the same batch of spaceships as Ying Cui, and this kind of parade made them feel novel.

"Wow." There seems to be water vapor in the air, accompanied by the sound of the tide rising and falling, the cool and salty smell makes people have the illusion of being in the sea at this moment, the sky and the sea are the same color, and the tide is flat and the shores are wide.

"Xiao Bei, where are you, Xiao Bei?" Ying Cui yelled loudly, suddenly feeling that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

The spectators around him became strangely quiet at this moment, their faces all showed confusion, which made his shouting even more abrupt.

Ying Cui felt a lump in her heart, and immediately turned around to ask Yi Nie for help.

"Clatter, clatter." The sound of the tide became louder, and there seemed to be a woman's high-decibel dolphin voice in it. It was melodious and long, making people drowsy, just like the singing of a sea monster that seduces people and kills them.

A team in the middle of the fish lantern team, those sea monsters used as packs are on six limbs, crawling forward slowly, with murderous eyes but extremely spiritual, on their backs, it seems to be murlocs dressed as murlocs holding sea forks , The props originally used for viewing are glowing with cold blood.

With the ancient sandstone city of Heba City as the background, let them walk out of a journey that is chaotic in time and space.

"Yi Nie, Yi Nie." Ying Cui patted the man's face anxiously, then turned to pat Fan Mi, "Wake up, wake up, you two."

There was no reaction, and the expressions of the two were still in the fascination of watching the show.

"I'll go, drop the chain at the critical moment?" Ying Cui's heart is on Cha Bei, but the people in front of him make it impossible for him to get off, so he can only pin his hope on awakening Yi Nie.

"Wake up." Ying Cui squeezed Yi Nie's face hard, "Wake me up!"

No response, still no response.

"Crack." He slapped his cheeks heavily with both hands, but seeing that it was useless, he slapped again.

"Hmm." Yi Nie grabbed Ying Cui's hand that fell again, and said in a daze, "Hiss, why are you beating me while watching a performance?"

"Look at you big-headed ghost!" Ying Cui pushed him forward angrily, "Go in and find Xiaobei first, I always feel like something happened."

"What happened?" Yi Nie rubbed her face, looked around, and the quiet crowd made him instantly clear, "What's going on?"

"I don't know what's going on. In a blink of an eye, you all seem to be possessed by demons."

Just as he was talking, Fan Mi woke up slowly and shook his head, "It's the sound control skill of the Sea Clan. I saw a patient at the medical station. The impact we have had today is considered minor."

"Sea Clan?" Yi Nie frowned, but her tone was affirmative, "It can't be the Sea Clan." He has experienced the skills of the Xilan Sea Clan, and it is absolutely impossible for him to collapse his defenses just by meeting him. There must be something else that he doesn't know .

The fish lantern parade team was coming to an end, and Yi Nie was focused on Cha Bei, so she didn't catch up with the team to find out what happened. She just watched the last murloc run away and disappeared around the street corner.

However, things don't seem to be that simple.

"My child, where is my child? Has anyone seen my child?"

"Crub, where are you? Mom is here, come here..."

Ying Cui searched around among the crowd who dispersed after regaining consciousness, but she couldn't see Cha Bei's shadow.

at last.

"Gone, my child is gone." A hysterical cry broke out from the crowd.

Yi Nie's face was solemn, her throat was dry and she said, "It's the parade team just now, all the children were kidnapped."

"All the children?!" The middle-aged man jumped up from the chair in shock, his voice changed into a different tone. There were two thick mustaches on his mouth, and his suit was stretched by his big belly. He took out a towel and wiped it Sweat on forehead.

He has been the administrator of Hobar City for 6 years, and he has never encountered so many children disappearing in public. It was still in broad daylight, where the most crowded airships entered and exited the port.

what does this mean?

It means that someone is openly opposing the authority, it means that someone is provoking the authority of the Hunter Association, and of course, it also means that his position is likely to be unstable.

"Let me ask you again, all the children who were present at that time disappeared?" The executive officer looked at his most capable subordinate.

"Yes." The man replied embarrassingly, "All of them are children under the age of 15. So far, 69 of them have come to report the crime."

"That is to say." The middle-aged man took a deep breath, "Doesn't include those who didn't report the crime?"

"Yes, sir."

"Okay, very good." The administrator slapped the table heavily, and said in a deep voice, "Investigate, thoroughly investigate, seal off the whole city, mobilize everyone to search the city, I don't believe so many children can hide without showing their feet."

Whether it's for his own position to be secure, or for those children whose whereabouts are unknown, he must make a big move.

"Dong dong." A knock on the door broke the air pressure in the room.

"Come in." The middle-aged man responded with his usual expression, and sat back in the main seat, covering up his gaffe just now.

The captain of the guard also stepped aside, unable to see his thoughts.

"City Lord." The secretary walked in, "Someone asked me to give this to you. He showed the hunter's certificate. I think it might be because of the child's disappearance."

"Hunter." The middle-aged man's face darkened, "Bring it... oh, this is it?" Then his face changed drastically.

The young guard captain hurried forward to catch the middle-aged man's body that was about to fall, "Sir?"

"It's okay." The middle-aged man waved his hand and looked at the secretary excitedly, "That person, no, is that adult still there?"

The secretary was shocked by the "Adult" blurted out by the boss, and stammered without confidence, "Put it down, after you put this down, he will leave."
