Meanwhile. Near the village.

It's hard to navigate the darkness. Relying on the secret methods left by their ancestors, the northern pirates were able to hold their ships even steady in absolute darkness, but when they reached the shore, they had to honestly carry torches and follow the stone signs on both sides of the road.

"The village is ahead!" The pirate first mate, Manus, breathed a sigh of relief.

The group he was in was not big, but it was not small. On the surface, he picked up his buddies in the white road, and secretly did a lot of robberies and robberies.

Last week, his pirate group had won a big victory, but his own losses were not small. The captain gave Manus a big holiday: they sent two ships of the enemy to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish, but they did not capture any of them, and their own ships needed to be repaired.

For the captain: keeping a guy like Manus who itches his heart without fighting is also a cause for trouble, so it is better to let him out to vent his anger......

First mate Manus only took two henchmen on the road. It's not that he doesn't like the feeling of swaggering through the city, it's just that the captain said that the cost of the vacation was paid for by Munus out of his own pocket.

If you take one more person, you will have one more mouth, and if you have one more mouth, the cost of eating on the road will be even greater—Manus is illiterate, but he will still calculate this account.

Decades ago, refusing to pay commissions, several powerful groups of ships joined forces to burn the largest port city on the coast to the ground. Now, the only decent city in the vicinity is not close to the sea, and it takes two full days to travel during the day.

That's two full days! Excluding the time to travel, it is likely that there will only be three days left on Manus's overland vacation.

So Manus chose to travel overnight. He knew that there was a village nearby, and he would rest there in the middle of the night, and then he would hurry again in the morning, and if he was lucky, he would be able to enter the city before dark the next day.

At this time, Menus began to complain in his heart about the captain: Why did you arrange a task for Lao Tzu to sell the stolen goods by the way! The three of them had only one mule, and they were hunched with all sorts of things.

As a result, now Munus himself had to travel on foot......

In the light of the torches, the low walls of the village were already in Munus's sight. Sensing the approach of these uninvited guests, the dog, which was resting under the low wall, began to bark wildly, waking up the sleeping cattle and horses nearby.

Manus's eyes lit up.

Looks like we'll be able to save some effort tomorrow, he thought.

Oh, and you can't tear your face before dawn......

……

The girl woke up.

The "perfect body" gave her keen hearing, so that she could hear the noise outside the small warehouse for the first time.

"Looks like something is wrong." Dimi said, clenching his sword.

Both of them are lying in their clothes, and it is easy at this time.

……

"You can't go in!" Outside the warehouse, Joe shouted.

Joe's shouting was something that Menus didn't understand. One of the two minions speaks the Snail language, while Munus doesn't know a word.

"Your Excellency wants to see his countrymen!" The minion said proudly.

The sudden arrival of Manus's gang alarmed almost the entire village. These guys, who were obviously pirates, made everyone full of wariness: although there were a large number of villagers and merchant guards present, if they really fought, maybe the three of them would be able to get out safely, and their own side would suffer heavy losses. Therefore, when Menus suggested that he was only spending half the night, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, one of the guys slipped out and said that "there are already two 'northern warriors' resting with us."

After all, apart from Joe, Adam, and the nun, everyone else still regarded the girl and Dimi as "warriors of the north".

Hearing that a young man was staying here with a little girl, Menus's eyes changed suddenly. The villagers described the girl's beauty in a colorful way, and the minions in charge of the translation added fuel and vinegar......

The greed on Munus's face grew.

"The great sea god really hasn't forgotten me." Manus thought.

He has been working in his own boat group for 20 years, what is the saddest thing? It's the same type of woman that the captain likes!

Unlike the "Luo Island", which never allowed women to take up arms, the women of the Northern Islands had the opportunity to compete on an equal footing with men on the battlefield. Rao is like this, and there are still very few women who choose to become female warriors in the end, and the ones with beauty are even rarer.

And the captain of Manus liked it......

Check it out! The women in the regiment, the captain's wife and concubines accounted for four! The captain's method of fishing them is also very simple, first pretending to use the "normal" to recruit them into the group, and then after a few days he gets drunk and forcibly forces them to submit, and then there are more fierce ones who simply launch a "duel" - anyway, after winning it is his woman.

As for reputation, it doesn't matter, the major tribes of the northern archipelago have limited contact with each other, and there are many dialects, so changing islands is all over. The captain was also willing to establish long-term relationships with the women he had conquered—but when they died on the battlefield, the captain could not squeeze out a few tears.

Fortunately, he did not covet the wives and women of the crew, and everyone did not mutiny......

Menus, like the captain, liked heroic female warriors, but the beautiful female warriors around him were all cut off by the captain.

Therefore, when he heard that there was a beautiful northern warrior resting here, Munus was overjoyed.

What the? You say the kid next to her? Who cares! If you know him, you will spare his life, and if you don't know him, you will be killed directly.

What the? They all sleep in the same room, and the second-hand girl wants it? Even the four women beside the captain were not second-hand. Rough, it's worth enjoying with three hands and four hands......

When the time comes, bring it back to the group directly, and the captain can't snatch away his own woman!

Menus's heart was on fire. He strode close to the warehouse, then kicked open the dilapidated door.

……

In the light of the torches, the girl and Dimi each held their swords, and looked at the bearded Manus with indifferent expressions, and the people behind him.

The three of Manus also saw the girl's face.

"Hah!" The minion in charge of the translation laughed, "Boss, you see I'm not wrong!" She's more beautiful than they say! ”

He didn't even notice that in the middle of his words, a shocked expression appeared on the girl's face.

Not because of what he said...... It's because the language he uses is hard to recognize, but more than half of the words are barely understood......

The flow of languages is extremely complex, sometimes the languages of neighboring ethnic groups are very different, and sometimes there are relatives between languages of regions that are far apart. This is often related to population migration and language development.

These are no longer important to the girl, anyway, she found out, and the other party said ...... It is supposed to be the language of the world under the clouds that is called "North Island language...... No matter how you hear it, it's a dialect of Circum-Ocka......

Thanks to the joint study of the arcane arts with Xiaowei, the girl also mastered a little bit of Toura Occad - it seems that the shared knowledge of the lingua franca also affected the girl's understanding of Xiaowei's other languages, and the girl is extremely talented in Tour-Occad.

Perhaps, before the rise of the continent, they belonged to the same ethnic group as some of the Okadian border residents? The girl thought to herself.

Dimi has also learned a little bit of simple Auca-German and can have simple everyday conversations, but the girl is even worse.

"What if...... You don't know how to be polite," the girl looked at Manus in front of her coldly, and she could tell at a glance that this person was the boss, "at least you, you should, understand...... Glory. ”

The girl's accent was strange to Munus, especially the last word, which Munnus froze for a few seconds to understand. He wasn't too suspicious: anyway, on the northern islands, there were many dialects.
