Chapter 6 to the tide
"Rogue Knife? I remember I had one too. It's just that I lost it in Gui and didn't get it back."
Chi Chao remembered that the evil soldier rogue knife he still had was abandoned, and he abandoned it in front of the Guiyuan Gate after that battle.
"But it's okay, I still have a sense of it, so I'll just get it back when it's time to get it back. and the [Demon Slaying Staff] in the Wasteland Oolong Courtyard, which should also be brought back."
At present, the only weapon that Chi Chao can take out is the external soul soldier of King Nanling-Xingsha Dili, and this big black knife has been seen by many people, and these are all people in the era of King Nanling, and there are still strong people in the world.
None of them are not greedy for this weapon, and Chi Chao can't use it anytime and anywhere, which is a big risk.
"When I get to the Xi Country, I'll have to ask someone to find me a good Rogue knife."
After traveling for half an hour, Yu Xiaole in the rear said, "Thirteenth Prince, we are almost at the Pingcheng Wharf, is this Iron King Eight looking for a place to hide? It's so different."
Chi Chao patted the dragon boat and said, "That's right, find a deep place to help it sink."
After Chi Chao and the others found a place to sink the dragon boat, they hired a small wooden boat to drive to Pingcheng Wharf.
The closer you get to Heicheng, the more boats in the vicinity begin, and sometimes there will be five boats in parallel, and a few novice boaters will also bump into other people's boats.
The boatman slowed down and cautiously steered the boat to the pier in Heijo, the boatman's most valuable possession, and if it was knocked through the water, his livelihood for the rest of his life would be lost.
Thankfully, the small wooden boat avoided the other wooden boats and was about to reach the pier without any problems.
"Boom!"
At this moment, there was a loud crash behind their small wooden boat, and when they looked back, a large ship with a strong bow was speeding towards the dock.
For the wooden boat in front of it, the person who drove the boat did not have the slightest intention of avoiding it, and many ships had been torn in two by the collision of its iron heads, and the people on board were lucky enough to fall into the water, and those who were not lucky had been hit by the iron bow and their heads were bleeding.
The small wooden boat they were in was right in front of that one, and they would be hit by it in a moment.
The boatman tried his best to hold on to the boat, trying to move away from the direction of the small wooden boat and avoid the big ship that was about to enter the dock.
But it was too late.
The boatman was still reluctant to give up his small wooden boat, and he had no intention of jumping into the water to avoid the impact, and Yu Xiaole, who was beside Chi Chao, saw the big boat that crashed again, and plunged directly into the water, and swam out dozens of meters with a flutter.
The water bandits who have been living in the water for a long time are really extraordinary. Chi Chao has a new perspective on Yu Xiaole, although this person is not very good-looking, he is indeed reliable at some times, especially the quality of knowing how to avoid danger at the right time.
"Old man, let's go!"
Chi Chao carried the back collar of the boatman, and with the help of his feet, the whole person took off on the spot with the boatman, and Chi Chao glided in the air with the boatman until he landed firmly on the ground on the dock.
The next moment they landed on the dock, the boat crashed into the small wooden boat, and at this time it was several times faster than before, and the small wooden boat was directly smashed into powder, and the broken pieces of wood scattered and fluttered on the water.
Who will be the people on the big ship? How can he be so arrogant and not look at the common people!
Chi Chao looked at the big boat, the flag of Gui was hanging on the boat, and the people who came from the big ship were actually Gui people!
Chi Chao took the boatman around him into the crowd to watch the excitement, and Yu Xiaole, who fell into the water first, also climbed ashore and found Chi Chao on the shore.
"Old man, are you alright?" Chi asked the boatman who was still in pain from losing the ship.
"I'm fine, I'm okay! Thank you for your life-saving grace."
The boatman thanked Chi Chao again and again, and almost knelt down, but Chi Chao refused.
"Xiaole, give those few taels of silver to this boatman, and let him buy a new ship."
Chi Chao said to Yu Xiaole.
"Thirteen sons, I ......"
"I'll pay you back twice as much as I won, and get the money quickly."
After giving the order, Chi Chao turned his gaze to the arrogant and domineering Guiguo ship, looking at the pedals on the boat that slowly landed, and the people on it gradually showed their heads.
Those people were officials of the Gui State, and some of them were still known to him, Fei Yi, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and Dong Yun, the waiter of the Military Department, and their faces were all arrogant and proud.
"There are people from the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War, and they still look so arrogant, it seems that things are not simple." After seeing it, Chi Chao thought for a while, "Is there a negotiation?"
Chi Chao immediately thought of Gui Dongdong, who was still in the Xi Kingdom, which might be the reason why the Gui Kingdom sent someone to come.
"Brother, do you know what these Gui people are here for?" Chi Chao asked a little brother selling baked cakes beside him.
"What are you here for, you're not here for peace talks. Ever since they captured Qinghe County, an important town in our south, they have been extremely presumptuous, and they want us to exchange a lot of money and offerings for it. These people are here to negotiate terms now!"
The little brother who sold baked cakes was filled with righteous indignation, and the more he talked, the more angry he stared at the group of Gui officials.
At this time, a pair of acquaintances that Chi Chao knew came out of the crowd that Gui Guo came down.
"Is she here too?"
The person Chi Chao saw was the daughter of the Yuwen family, Yuwen Ji, and her husband, Shu Jinglun, the only son of the tiger general Shu Geye.
At this time, she was already ***, and she lacked the sassy temperament that was rare for women at that time.
It is easy to ruin a woman with great ambitions, and that is to give her a child, at which point all her attention is on the child.
Yuwen got off the boat, and there was a little girl by her side, the little girl's little face was pink, Xu was blown by the recent river breeze, her towering nose was like her mother, and her eyes were not like her, but like her father.
"They, too? Do you want to play the sympathy card with Gui Dongdong?"
Chi Chao thought that the people who came out of the boat would still have Chi Tang, but everyone came out and didn't see his shadow.
"Huh? Shouldn't this be the time for Ikeyu to be in the limelight?"
Chi Chao has been the peace envoy of Gui State, of course Chi Tang will not lose to him as a stand-in, he will also find an opportunity to be an envoy and earn enough face.
What makes Chi Tang even more interesting is that what Chi Chao didn't do, he did.
"Thirteen Princes, what are you looking at?"
After Yu Xiaole settled down and took care of the boatman, he ran back to find Chi Chao.
"It's nothing, hurry up and take me to the [Momen] headquarters."
Chi Chao doesn't have the heart to care about these people from Gui Country who have other purposes, so let the people of Xi Country take care of these things, this is what they should do, and Chi Chao can't say anything if he wants to intervene.
"Thirteen sons, where are we going?" Yu Xiaole's face was a little embarrassed.
"Or else?" Chi Chao was puzzled.
"Thirteenth Prince, I advise you not to go there now. It's not safe there." Yu Xiaole whispered.
Could it be that something big is happening in [Momen]? As soon as Chi Chao heard this, he guessed that something might have happened in the [Momen], and it was a major event that endangered the head of the line.
"I have been told what a great change has taken place in Momen."
Chi Chao hurriedly asked.
"[Momen] is no longer the [Momen] that was in charge of the forest gate lord before, since the [Yufangzhai] was destroyed in Gui Kingdom three years ago, the forest gate lord has been recuperating from his injuries, and the affairs of [Momen] have been handled by the three elders, but the three elders have their own personal interests, forming gangs, and helping the good [Momen] to split into three major faction camps, and most of the Lin Sect master's cronies have been removed, and all the power is concentrated in the hands of the three elders."
Yu Xiaole told Chi Chao about the changes in [Momen] in the past three years, he used to be the cronies of the [Momen] Lin Sect Lord's cronies, and he was originally going to Gui to be a spy, because of this relationship, he was relegated to the border between Xiguo and Daze to be a spy, and he was forced by life to become a water bandit.
"What about Lin Lanzhi, the daughter of the Lord of the Forest Sect? How is she?" Chi Chao asked again, he was more concerned about the situation of his righteous sister.
"The eldest girl is fine, after all, she is the fiancée of Gu Qianhao, the master of the [Haixi Pavilion] Young Pavilion, and no matter how bold the three elders of the [Momen] are, they don't dare to provoke the strongest cultivation sect in the Xi Country." Yu Xiaole said, "But the three elders still won't let the eldest girl go to [Momen], trying to [Momen] to regain the right to be the head of [Momen]."
It seems that the first thing I have to deal with when I go to Xiguo is the issue of the separation of powers in [Momen]. Chi Chao thought in his heart.
"Okay, I got it."
Chi Chao walked through the dense crowd and walked to the street, he was about to go into the city to find an inn to live in, Yu Xiaole also walked through the crowd and followed behind Chi Chao's ass.
"Thirteen Sons.........
"Stop, stop." When Yu Xiaole was screaming at himself behind his ass, Chi Chao interrupted him.
"Don't always call me the thirteenth son, the thirteenth son, so that others will know it's me when they hear it." Chi Chao didn't want to be the first to be known by the three elders of the [Momen] about his return.
"And what should I call you?" Yu Xiaole scratched his head.
"Call me Young Master, and I need a new identity in order to avoid the detection of [Momen], you help me fake an identity certificate, my name is Liao Chun, from Gui Guo, and I am a down-and-out scholar who has not taken the Gui Guo National Examination. I came to Xiguo to find a way to become an official." Chi Chao ordered to go down and ask Yu Xiaole to do something.
"Thirteen ......"
"Hmm!" Chi Chao stared at Yu Xiaole behind him.
"No, no, no, young master! It's not difficult for you to ask me to get a fake identity certificate, but I have to have some silver to pay for, there is no benefit, and the envoy of Xiguo will not be able to do it."
Yu Xiaole spread out his palms and looked at Chi Chao with a smile.
"How much do you want?" Chi Chao asked.
"Not much, three hundred taels of silver."
"Well, you pat it first, and then I will pay you back five hundred taels when I have money."
"Clams?" Yu Xiaole was taken aback, couldn't the thirteen sons of [Momen] take out a hundred taels of silver? Am I not following the wrong person? Do you want to sell him?
