Let's start by analyzing the sun

The scene of "commoners scrambling for sea fish" at the market left a deep impression on the newly appointed Deputy General Gu Mingxun.

The commoners' frenzy to buy was as if the sea fish were free.

Of course.

It wasn't really free.

But compared to the price of beef, mutton, chicken, and duck, sea fish was indeed too cheap.

Two copper coins per catty, even cheaper than mushrooms.

This wasn't surprising.

Although the war fortress was mainly for people to live in, the internal space was limited, and there wasn't much room to raise livestock.

And the relationship between supply and demand directly determined the price.

When production was low and demand was high, the price naturally couldn't be low.

If the market hadn't specifically stipulated a limit of "only two sea fish per person," some people would definitely buy ten or twenty.

Regarding this.

Gu Mingxun had only one thought in his mind—brilliant!

Who was brilliant?

Of course, Inspector Cheng!

According to the information this Deputy General had learned.

After the Flower Cloud Mothers entered this war zone, the Inspector's first order was—to cure the Blood Shrimp Disease.

The second order was—to cultivate non-toxic sea fish on a large scale.

The former quickly resolved the commoners' fear of the disease.

The latter solved the commoners' desire for meat in one fell swoop.

Gu Mingxun strolled around for a morning, his heart filled with emotion: "No wonder not a single commoner in the entire war zone speaks ill of the Flower Cloud Mothers."

Since all the commoners had benefited, of course no one would dislike the Flower Cloud Mothers.

If the war zone headquarters ordered this branch of the Flower Cloud Mothers to be expelled, the commoners would definitely complain.

The more Gu Mingxun thought about it, the more he admired it: "The headquarters can ignore the opposition of a portion of the commoners, but if all the commoners oppose it, I'm afraid even the General wouldn't dare to ignore it.

"Inspector Cheng's two simple tricks are equivalent to completely binding the Flower Cloud Mother tribe to the Eastern Li War Zone.

"Even if he leaves the Eastern Li War Zone in the future, or even leaves this world, the war zone will not treat the Flower Cloud Mothers badly!"

This made Gu Mingxun a little frustrated.

Judging from the current situation, it seemed that the permanent residence of this branch of the Flower Cloud Mother tribe in the Eastern Li War Zone had become a certainty.

Or rather, this was the trend of history.

Even if he was the Deputy General, it was impossible to shake this.

Unless the Flower Cloud Mothers were really up to something in secret.

Just then.

A flash of inspiration struck Gu Mingxun's mind, and he suddenly had a new idea.

"Since I can't fight the general trend, why not use it for my own benefit?

"With Vice Inspector Cheng's outstanding talent, anyone can judge that it is only a matter of time before he leaves the Eastern Li War Zone.

"At that time, the war zone will definitely need another Deputy General to replace the Inspector's position and be responsible for leading this Flower Cloud Mother tribe."

Gu Mingxun's eyes sparkled, and the thoughts in his mind became clearer.

"I can make some preparations in advance and build a good relationship with the important figures of the Flower Cloud Mothers in private.

"When Inspector Cheng is transferred away from the war zone, I can directly fill the Inspector's vacancy by virtue of this advantage.

"If the Flower Cloud Mothers have no ulterior motives, I can use them to make more contributions.

"If the Flower Cloud Mothers have ill intentions, I can also detect them in advance and wipe them out in one fell swoop!"

Gu Mingxun was very excited: "This is a good idea!"

At this moment.

The Deputy General seemed to have forgotten that just last night, he was still telling his subordinates with certainty that "the Flower Cloud Mothers staying in the war zone would cause endless troubles."

Half an hour later.

Gu Mingxun returned to the dock and bought another ticket, successfully boarding the floating wood boat flight back to Ice Soul Lotus Island.

Before the boat had traveled even a third of the way, a small accident occurred.

"Crack!"

An extremely subtle, strange sound suddenly came from the bottom of the boat.

With his Xuan Master's super hearing, Gu Mingxun instantly determined that it was a school of fish gnawing at the bottom of the boat.

"Crack! Crack!"

The gnawing quickly grew louder.

Everyone on the floating wood boat noticed it.

Many passengers were a little panicked, their faces filled with anxiety.

The crew members were quite calm and shouted loudly: "Everyone, there are sea eagles patrolling every route, and we have notified the Sea Eagle Legion.

"Sea eagles will arrive in five minutes at most to disperse the fish school under the sea, and this floating wood boat will definitely not be in danger."

The tense atmosphere in the crowd improved a little.

Only thirty seconds passed.

The gnawing sound from underwater suddenly stopped.

The passengers immediately noticed.

"The sea eagles came so fast!"

"The fish school has been dispersed!"

The corners of Gu Mingxun's mouth turned up slightly.

This Deputy General heard "aiya" shouts, and he could tell that the voices came from two Flower Cloud Mothers.

Obviously.

It wasn't the sea eagles that came.

But the Flower Cloud Mothers arrived in time and dispersed the fish school attacking the boat.

Soon.

The crew members also discovered the truth.

One crew member shouted directly: "I saw the Flower Cloud Mothers! They saved this boat!"

Another crew member pointed to the sea and shouted: "They seem to be killing fish in the sea!"

The passengers immediately rushed to the windows and looked outside.

What they saw.

Only two slender figures shuttling underwater at extremely fast speeds.

This was undoubtedly the Flower Cloud Mothers.

And wherever they passed, corpses of fish, large and small, floated up from underwater one after another.

This scene.

Completely confirmed the crew member's words.

Gu Mingxun's heart stirred as he looked through the window: "Isn't this a good opportunity?"

First find a way to contact the Flower Cloud Mothers underwater, and then contact the important figures of the Flower Cloud Mothers through them, this is a feasible idea.

Deputy General Gu decisively decided: "Let's do it!"

He stared at the sea without blinking, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he instantly saw the two Flower Cloud Mothers clearly.

At the same time.

Gu Mingxun lightly flicked his right finger, sending out two extraordinary imprints, which instantly hit the two slender figures underwater.

The next second.

The swimming speed of the two Flower Cloud Mothers suddenly slowed down.

Deputy General Gu immediately smiled.

Good!

It worked!

Gu Mingxun also had a sense of smugness: "As expected of me."

If it were other Xuan Masters, even if they had the idea, they might not be able to do it in the case of language barriers.

But he had cultivated a secret method that could accurately convey his meaning to the Flower Cloud Mothers.

"Splash～"

The sound of waves rang out.

Two beautiful faces emerged from the water, curiously looking towards the floating wood boat.

The smile on Gu Mingxun's face deepened.

They took the bait!

This Deputy General originally thought that the two Flower Cloud Mothers would definitely be very willing to see him.

After all, he had clearly stated in the message: "I am the Deputy General of the war zone, and I have enough ability to fight for better treatment for the Flower Cloud Mother clan!"

In order to make the other party believe it, the Deputy General also left a Xuan Master-level spiritual brand.

And the Flower Cloud Mother was a race born with extraordinary powers, and they would definitely be able to distinguish it.

However.

The following facts were completely different from what Gu Mingxun thought.

The two Flower Cloud Mothers looked at each other, and a very obvious look of mockery appeared on their faces.

"Iya!"

"Iaa!"

They also cried out a few times.

Relying on the effect of the imprint, Gu Mingxun instantly understood what they said.

"Shameless! You're actually thinking of secretly poaching, do you think we can't see it?"

"We will only listen to the orders of the 'Leader', not just anyone is qualified to command us!"

At that moment.

Gu Mingxun's old face flushed uncontrollably.

I was despised?

Subsequently.

A burst of rage welled up in the Deputy General's heart.

Damn alien race, how dare you laugh at a Xuan Master!

Outside the window.

The two Flower Cloud Mothers sank into the water and quickly disappeared.

Gu Mingxun stared at the surface of the water, his heart full of shame and anger.

After a while.

"Buzz～"

The communication Xuan device in the Deputy General's arms suddenly vibrated.

He reached out and grasped the Xuan device, input a spiritual force, and a message immediately flashed in his mind.

Gu Mingxun glanced in the direction of Spirit Flame Lotus Island and muttered in a very low voice: "Inspector Cheng actually went to the Flower Cloud Mother's lair alone?"

This was the latest news from his subordinates.

He snorted and speculated maliciously: "Aren't you afraid that the Flower Cloud Mothers will suddenly turn against you and treat you as a sacrifice?"

Gu Mingxun was still feeling uneasy and murmured softly: "The Flower Cloud Mother clan has ulterior motives and cannot be allowed to stay in the war zone for a long time."

Unknowingly.

The Deputy General's position shifted again.

*

At this time.

In the Flower Cloud Mother's lair.

Not only was Cheng Han not "placed" on the altar, but he also received a benefit, and it was a great benefit that even the Xuan Overseer coveted.

Just five minutes after the ceremony began.

Hundreds of Flower Cloud Mothers in the cavity suddenly began to sing hymns.

"Iya… Ira…"

"Heyi… Heyha…"

Although their pretty faces were full of piety, the songs sung in baby talk were really cute to the point of making one's scalp tingle.

At this time.

The Mother Goddess Sea Shell in the center of the altar released an even stronger blue light, dyeing the entire cavity blue.

"Iya!"

The leader, Water Lotus, shouted loudly, grasped the bone staff with both hands, and struck the shell hard.

"Dong!"

The sound was as loud as a bell.

The next second.

Something strange happened.

"Buzz!"

The divine object trembled violently, and then opened slightly.

A highly condensed blue glow flowed out of the shell, transforming into a lifelike blue jellyfish.

This thing was about the size of a palm, and its shape looked like a flower.

About the size of a palm.

Water Lotus's gaze turned to Cheng Han, and she waved the bone staff in her right hand: "Yahei!"

The flower jellyfish swelled and swam towards Cheng Han.

Cheng Han was stunned.

The All-Knowing Eye suddenly sent out a stream of information, letting him understand what the jellyfish was—the Mother Goddess Flower.

It had two functions.

One.

The target that obtains this object will instantly understand the language and writing of the Flower Cloud Mothers.

This was undoubtedly one of the purposes of the leader inviting Cheng Han to participate in the ceremony.

After all, it was quite embarrassing for the dignified Leader to be unable to communicate smoothly with his own race.

Two.

After integrating the Mother Goddess Flower into the soul, it can greatly enhance mental power.

To be honest.

If Gu Mingxun witnessed this scene, he would definitely be speechless and ask the heavens.

He eagerly tried to build a relationship with the Flower Cloud Mothers, but his hot face was stuck on someone else's cold butt.

Inspector Cheng came to visit leisurely, and the Flower Cloud Mothers not only welcomed him with great courtesy, but also took the initiative to offer a great benefit.

People and people.

Sure enough, there is no comparison.
