Chapter 16 Settling in the Town

In front of a homestay in a small town, Xia Long followed the address of the note to find the friend's house that the driver mentioned.

Not far from the coast, there is a two-story residential building with wooden doors and signs. It is different from the hotel he stayed in Ong Island, and it has a bit of farm characteristics.

"Are you a guest here to stay?" A middle-aged woman in a white kitchen hood walked out of the inner hall, noticed Xia Long, and greeted enthusiastically, "Come in quickly."

Xia Long took off his shoes and walked into the house, looked around and said, "Someone introduced me to stay here."

"Is it Mr. Shimura?" The woman noticed the notes on Xia Long's hand and said kindly while busy, "Go upstairs first. There are all empty rooms on the top. After the meal is ready, I will bring it to you."

"I've been disturbed."

Xia Long walked upstairs along the wooden stairs and entered the first room.

After pushing the sliding door to the side, the empty room that was in sight was covered with tatami, a low table was placed in the middle, and an old TV near the corner.

It is as clean and tidy as downstairs, giving people a good impression.

Xia Long put his backpack aside and walked to the open window bar and looked out.

The small building has a good vision. Due to the high terrain, you can see the coast not far away at a glance, and even a small reef island with torii in the sea can be seen very clearly.

It's indeed a very good place, I've been staying here these days...

Xia Long turned on the TV casually and sat on the tatami and watched a somewhat boring show. After a while, footsteps came from outside. The woman walked into the room with a plate.

"I've been waiting for a long time, are the guests hungry?"

"Thanks."

The rice and a few simple dishes were placed on the table, which were not rich but very simple.

Xia Long picked up the chopsticks and tasted it, nodded: "Well, it's delicious, it tastes like home."

The woman smiled and said, "Then eat more, it's not enough to be downstairs."

Seeing Xia Long smiling, the woman said again: "There are not many people coming to this town now, but it is also a good season for fishing. Guests can have fun here for a few days."

"Yes," Xia Long said in a hurry, "Let's talk about it tomorrow."

...

After leaving the town, Xia Long borrowed a pair of fishing tackle from the boss’s wife to fish at the beach early the next morning.

A few steps away from the homestay is the coast. There is also a reservoir embankment a little further ahead. When Xia Long arrived, several people were already sitting by the embankment and fishing.

After choosing a position close to the middle, Xia Long unfamiliarly put the fish basket aside, the fishing rod and bait were ready, and started fishing like everyone else.

But just now, Xia Long gradually felt something was wrong. Half a day passed, and the others gained more or less, but only he did not make any noise.

"Um?"

After he changed his seat, an old man gained a lot from the place he had just stayed.

Xia Long held the fishing rod in his hand, looked at other places where fish jumped out of the water from time to time, and then looked at the area under his feet that seemed to be a stagnant pool of water, and his brows frowned.

He restrained all his breath, and even if Saiwen came here, he would not be able to sense him. What's going on with these fish...

The middle-aged uncle who had been fishing here next to him also looked down, staring at Xia Long suspiciously for a while, and finally couldn't help but get up and leave. For a moment, a blank area was formed around Xia Long.

Xia Long shook his head, put down the fishing rod in his hand, stood up and stretched.

Under the warm sunshine, the sea breeze blows, which is quite quiet, but also a bit boring.

After coming all the way from Ong Island, even the sea is beautiful, I don’t feel tired of seeing it, or I just want to fight like I used to.

I used to long for peace but couldn't get it, but now I'm a little uncomfortable with this kind of life and always feel like my body is tied up.

But there is no battle for him anymore.

After the seal was lifted, the power of almost God had reached the peak of this universe, with almost no force that could be matched, let alone this Saiwen ov time and space. In the last big iron block incident, even Saiwen could not even be warmed up.

Being too strong is also a pain. During this period, my body feels like it is about to rust...

“When did it start to become like this?”

Xia Long looked up at the blue sky.

Ultra's signature was still not moving at all, as if the Kingdom of Light had disappeared into the vast universe.

At this time, an Ultra Guard Patrol Car drove over to the beach. After stopping, the two guards got out of the car, looked around, and walked straight toward the embankment.

Xia Long's eyes moved slightly, and as he looked, he found that one of them was Feng Sen Zhenghui, who was in the culture body.

The two of them did not notice Xia Long at the first time, but ran to the other fishing people. After a while, Feng Sen Zhenghui looked at Xia Long who was right beside him with some sense.

"Ah, true Xia Jun!"

Feng Sen said in surprise: "Why are you here?"

"I live in Nosuke, the homestay house, over there," Xia Long pointed to Xiaolou and smiled, "Come here to fish when you are bored."

"Fishing?" Feng Sen looked at Xia Long's empty fish basket strangely.

"What's wrong with you here?" Xia Long looked at Shima who was fishing with an old man on the other side.

"No," Feng Sen looked away from the fish basket, "it was just a patrol here."

"Hurry up, old man, you're taking the bait, look!" On the other side, Shima's shout attracted the attention of both of them.

As if he was fishing, Shima stood behind the old man and shouted excitedly. After the fish that was caught ran away, she sighed regretfully, "Ah, there should be a big guy, probably a flounder, which is a pity."

Feng Sen explained a little embarrassedly: "He is a member of Shima."

Shimo left the old man and smiled at Xia Long without seeing any blood, "You are the Shin Xia Jun mentioned by Fengsen team members. It's a coincidence that you would actually meet you here. What a harvest? This is a holy place for fishing."

"generally."

Xia Long put away the fishing gear and said, "I'm not very lucky today, so I'd better go back first."

Nodded to Feng Sen, Xia Long lifted the fish basket, leaving Feng Sen, who was reluctant to speak but stopped, and Shima, who was confused, left the embankment.

Although Sain hasn't said anything, Xia Long knew that Sain must have a lot to ask himself.

I can only say sorry for this. When Sain is in trouble, he will help, but he doesn't want to involve too much else.

"Um?"

When passing by the fishing old man, Xia Long suddenly stopped and looked at the fishing old man who was fishing in confusion. He paused, shook his head and turned around and walked away.

When I returned to the homestay Nosuke, I happened to catch the boss's wife preparing lunch. After Xia Long put down the fishing gear, he went straight to the first floor to have a meal.

"When I was fishing on the dam," Xia Long served a bowl of rice himself, looked at the busy boss's wife, and said curiously, "I saw a strange old man."

"That person seems to have come here half a year ago. He suddenly appeared here half a year ago," the boss's wife scooped a bowl of soup for Xia Long, "Don't care. Although she always likes to say something she doesn't understand, she should have no malicious intentions."

"Um."
