Chapter 600 Island tribute

On this day, Zhou Shu was practicing, and a scolding suddenly came from outside the island. (?Net [

"The Lord of Aro Island is here to come out!"

Zhou Shu looked at the three Jindan cultivators hanging in the air, staring proudly below, and the big thorn was very rude.

Who are these people and what are they doing here?

After thinking for a while, Zhou Shu was a little puzzled, and the shouts were repeated. He only sent a message to respond, "Amitabha, I am in seclusion and it is not convenient to see guests."

"Rareless! In seclusion, what bird's way is closed!"

"Today is the day when you pay the island tribute to Lord Maku. Don't pretend to be dead. Even if you are from Linyun Temple, you will still die if you offend Lord Maku here!"

"Do you think it's okay to hide in the formation? We have divine talismans specially given by Lord Maku. With the talismans being moved, they can be sent to Lord Maku immediately and come out quickly!"

The faces of the three cultivators changed slightly, showing a little anger, and the shouts became louder.

"It turns out that the three are the messengers of Lord Maku. I will send the island tribute here."

Zhou Shu understood the reason, changed his mind, opened the formation and flew out.

At this time, he deliberately used the escape technique to cover up his body, and there was a cloud of fog all over his body, only a corner of the monk's robe exposed. If he had not been a cultivator with higher spiritual consciousness than him, he would definitely not be able to see his true form.

He clasped his hands together and said in a deep voice, "I'm late to welcome you, so please forgive me."

The three cultivators stared at Zhou Shu for a few times, with disdain, but didn't ask much, and shouted directly, "Stop talking, I'm dying! How much money you have made in the past two years, I've paid 70% of it. If you don't have enough, we'll take back this island!"

Zhou Shu nodded, took out some sacred rings and handed them over, "I can't save you that there are very few merchants in the East China Sea recently, and there are not many plundered property. I have to have these seventeen sacred rings."

Naxu Ring, he has at least fifty ones on his body. Although he can't open it now, he still uses a bag to keep it for the future.

"Seventeen?"

The three messengers showed some joy on their faces. They took the Naxu Ring and looked carefully. The smiles on their faces became more and their words changed. They were arrogant at first and respectful at the end.

"Yes, Master Xuhui really has the means. He has gained such a thing in two years, which is much better than other islands. After reporting to Lord Maku, he will definitely be happy."

"Don't worry, since I have paid the island tribute, this island will be yours."

"The master continues to retreat, so we will not disturb you and say goodbye."

The three messengers put away the Naxu Ring, nodded at Zhou Shu, turned around and wanted to leave.

Zhou Shu clasped his hands together and pretended to be puzzled, "Thank you for your hard work from afar, don't you go to the island to have a cup of tea?"

The messenger shook his head and said, "I won't drink anymore. There are still seven or eight islands to go. We can't afford to take care of Lord Maku's affairs."

"That's fine, I won't send you more, see you."

Zhou Shu nodded and saluted, turned around and fell back to the island.

Soon, he sorted out a little, took all the things he should take away, and then left.

Expanding his spiritual sense, the three messengers were not far away, and were still in the range, and were rushing to the road. Zhou Shu deployed the escape technique and quietly fell behind several people, following him all the way.

He and Maku have already formed an indissoluble bondage when destroying the island and killing the mad shark. Since these three envoys are Maku's subordinates and are also bandits, there is no reason to let them go. However, from their words, they know that they have to go to seven or eight islands. Isn't it better to follow them, take down those islands along the way, and then deal with these envoys.

Now he is most likely no match for Maku. It is also excellent to be able to attack Maku from other aspects and eliminate harm to the people.

Moreover, calculating the time, it is time for him to leave the East China Sea and set off for Liuming Mountain, but before leaving, he will not let Maku live a better life.

The huge advantage of spiritual consciousness was clearly revealed. The three messengers' spiritual consciousness range was only fifty miles, and every word and action was all in Zhou Shu's eyes, but they knew nothing about Zhou Shu.

"Have you sent a message to Lord Maku?"

"Of course, I didn't expect that the bald donkey actually handed over seventeen void rings, which was more than twice as many. The adults were very happy."

"Well, this time we received island tribute, it seems that we have the most rewards along the way."

"Haha... the other roads are pitiful and I have to be punished again, but fortunately the mad shark is gone, otherwise a few of them will have to die to make the adults calm."

"The mad shark is dead, which is really a good thing for us. It's terrible to think of it. Poor Master Duo Shou, the adults took his anger on him and beat him up. His tentacles fell off half, and I'm afraid they won't be able to recover for more than ten years."

"He is not a human being, what's the pity? Killing it will be of great benefit to the adults, but unfortunately it wasn't killed."

"The guy who killed the crazy shark didn't know where he hid, he didn't see him for so long."

"I don't even have a look, so where can I find it? I only know that he has a top-quality magic weapon, so it's hard..."

...

After listening along the way, Zhou Shu got a lot of useful information.

Every two years, Maku will send ten envoys to collect island tribute. The island owners in the territory will pay 70% of the income to Maku. Maku's methods are extremely cruel, with at least eight. Those who pay less will be punished and even taken back to the island. Those who disobey will die.

Therefore, the island owner under his jurisdiction must constantly plunder and kill others in order to save his status and life. If he cannot survive, he can only trade his life for his life.

During these days, Maku has been following Zhou Shu's whereabouts, but he never expected that Zhou Shu would use his identity as a Xuhui and hide on the island under his jurisdiction. His Duo Xu was beaten by Maku and barely escaped his life, but it would take more than ten years to recover.

"Master Duo Xu ran away, is Lin Zhu safe?"

This thought suddenly flashed through Zhou Shu's heart, but soon he shook his head, "No matter what you do, I don't know if I can meet it anymore. If I encounter it, I will settle the score with her."

After following for two days, three messengers stopped in front of an island.

After a loud shout, a middle-aged cultivator flew out and respectfully handed over five Void Rings.

The messenger accepted the Naxu Act and then scolded him. The middle-aged cultivator's face turned red, but he didn't dare to say anything at all, and he kept shaking his head and begging for mercy.

"No matter how much you say, it's useless! You can wait for Lord Maku to punish you!"

The middle-aged cultivator begged for mercy repeatedly, and finally gave the one he had kept, "I would like to ask the messenger for forgiveness, but these two are really gone."

"I still want to be the island owner if I don't have it? Go around the island within two months, either make up the double difference or hand over the island!"

The messenger scolded him mercilessly, turned around and left.

The middle-aged cultivator was desperate to seek nothing, so he had to fall back to the island in disappointment and look around. He felt depressed and had nowhere to vent his anger. He couldn't help but shout at his disciples, "Go and grab them all! If you can't grab enough property within a month, you will die for me!"

The disciples on both sides nodded repeatedly, but the fear on their faces could not be concealed.

"Keep the change, please."

A plain and unfamiliar voice came, and the middle-aged cultivator couldn't help but look shocked. He quickly turned around and shouted, "Who, who are you, how did you get up?"

No one answered.
