Although the Holy Land said that he could actually go on the road alone, the Sugihisao people still sent a carriage and a coachman. The road from the Land of Fire to the Land of Iron is not very far, and there are quite a few pedestrians on the road. The Iron Country's historical neutrality has made it popular for all kinds of people, including merchants, ordinary people who hate war, bandits, bandits, and wandering ninjas and rebels.

For the vast majority of people, the Iron Country is like a relatively stable paradise, as long as they enter the Iron Country and do not actively violate the laws of the Iron Country, even the bandits and robbers can find their own place to live.

The closer you get to the Iron Country, the more people there are on the road, and the carriage that the Holy Kingdom rides in has the family crest of the Sugiku family of the Fire Country, and no one along the way takes the initiative to provoke this carriage, but no one wants to go along.

At the border, the Holy Kingdom told the carriage and coachman to go back, and he had to walk the rest of the way himself. Although the coachman was not too reluctant, he was finally persuaded to go back by the Holy Kingdom.

The scenery of the Iron Country is basically not much different from the Fire Country, except that there are a little more mountains and a little more bare rocks. On the way, he rejected the requests of several well-wishers who wanted to go all the way, and the Holy Kingdom carried a burden and a katana, and walked towards the nearest city on the border of the Iron Country step by step.

Just when he had just entered this small city without a name, he unexpectedly ran into an acquaintance who was not an acquaintance.

"Yo, the little brother over there seems to have seen it somewhere, do you want to come over and have something to eat together?"

The sound from the side of the road made Shengguo slightly stunned, he looked left and right, and no pedestrians seemed to stop, so he had to look in the direction from which the sound came.

A man in a loose robe, underneath a shirt, and gray-haired man who looked to be in his thirties or forties, sat on the side of the road, and made a table alone surrounded by a crowd. There are a lot of delicacies on the table, but he is the only one who moves the chopsticks.

Shengguo pointed to himself, the man nodded, and laughed, "It seems that the little brother has forgotten, it's really sad, although it's just a meeting in Pingshui, but no matter what, it's a former fate!" ”

Shengguo smiled apologetically, "I'm so sorry, I really can't remember seeing you somewhere." ”

"Duff......, Duff, I'm Duff!" The man named Duff looked very kind, laughed and knocked on the table, "Don't you think about it yet?" I even sent someone to escort you on the way back, it's really sad, so non-existent. ”

It turned out to be that guy!

The Holy Kingdom immediately walked over and sat down nearby, not feeling the slightest strangeness, and he thanked Duff first. After all, not everyone will give up a carriage and a few guards to send a strange child who they don't know to a long way. But Duff did it, of course, it can also be said that this is the willful spirit of the rich, but no matter why the other party made such a decision, at least in this matter the Holy Kingdom is the beneficiary party.

When you get help from others, you always have to say thank you, which is not only to thank the other person, but also to build your own virtues.

Duff liked the unpretentious attitude of the Holy Kingdom, he hooked his fingers, and a middle-aged man in a suit and sunglasses immediately leaned over. The middle-aged man stood beside Duff with his head bowed, his eyebrows lowered.

"Go add a pair of chopsticks and cook a few hot dishes."

It's a courtesy, not that he's extravagant, and as a guest who joins in halfway through the meal, he should make a few separate dishes for him as a sign of respect.

After a few polite words, Duff asked curiously while the new dish had not yet come up, "Holy ...... Country: Right, did you come to Iron Country alone this time, did you come to play or something else? If I need help, I still have some connections here in the Iron Country, even if I have a good mouth. ”

After thanking him again, the Holy Kingdom shook his head, "I'm just here to learn more and see what the Iron Nation is different from other countries. What about you? Mr. Duff came to the Iron Country this time to do business, right? Being able to do business in various countries, Mr. Duff is really a good hand! ”

Duff raised his chin and smiled a little smug, this kind of pride does not make people think that he is a little pretentious, but thinks that this guy is a little frank and cute. He pouted, and the Holy Kingdom looked towards the side of the road, good fellow, there were almost thirty carriages full of things, and many guards were also eating, and there were more than a dozen ninjas in between. If such a large caravan did not employ ninjas, it would be difficult to reach the Land of Iron safely from the Land of Waves.

The bandits and robbers who heard the wind along the way will unite with each other to swallow such a huge convoy and divide the profits.

The middle-aged man from before walked back with dishes and chopsticks, and Duff introduced him to the Holy Kingdom, "This is my assistant, you can call him Mr. Cardo." Mr. Cardo is my indispensable assistant, and I can squander my youth and time with peace of mind, thanks to Cardo! ”

Shengguo nodded at Cardo as a greeting, but Cardo grinned very cheerfully, "Hello, please take care of you when we meet for the first time." ”

He did a lot of etiquette, which was not easy, not that there were more people who were not polite, but it was a little surprising that an adult would bow and say such things in a respectful tone in the face of a child like the Holy Kingdom. In the current social background of seniority, unless it is some great little guy with a very amazing background, it is very difficult to want adults to take the initiative to salute.

Immediately, the Holy Kingdom paid attention to this person called Cardo, this guy will definitely be a very powerful person in the future, just by the fact that he can now salute a strange child without blushing and heartbeat, it can be seen that this guy has a deep enough city. The Holy Kingdom has always believed in one sentence, there is no saint in this world, and if you find a perfect saint, then it is only possible that you still don't know what he wants.

He stood up and bowed in return, which was also a courtesy.

Duff smiled and waved his hand, "Okay, okay, just get to know." Duff is often found on this side of the Iron Country, and if you have something you want to visit, you might as well go with Cardo, which will save you a lot of travel. ”

Cardo also echoed and said, "What Mr. Duff said is true, because of my work, I am active in the Iron Country most of the time, and I can answer any questions you don't understand." ”

"Really?" , the Holy Kingdom was a little surprised, "Mr. Nacardo, do you know where the largest samurai dojo in the Iron Country is?" ”

"Samurai Dojo?" , Cardo thought for a moment, stretched out a finger and nodded, "I remember, it should be the dojo currently managed by Okisuke, right?" A mysterious expression appeared on his face, "It is said that the real dojo master called the Renxin Dojo is Mifune-sama, and I don't know if it's true or not." If you want to go to the Holy Country, I can show you the way, and I have some friendship with Okisuke. ”
