Chapter 434: Discovering the Fountain of the Body

The moonlight was bright and bright, but it was not enough to illuminate the darkness, and the ships on the sea still had to be lit by lights. Under the light, there stood a group of bloodstained and tired pirates of the Five Continents, and a lot of broken wood and corpses floated on the surface of the sea not far away. The scene was horrific and depressing, bloody and terrifying, but it didn't frighten Donk, a veteran pirate leader. He sat on a relatively clean deck, jug in hand, gulping down.

Later in the battle, there was no need for Donk to take action personally, and his previous swords had already laid the victory.

The pirates of the Righteous Regiment and the Dragon Pirate Regiment dealt with the remaining enemies, killing and capturing a number of them. Two of the Wako's ships have been scrapped, leaving only one relatively intact.

After everything was properly handled, Zheng Long, the leader of the Xingyi Regiment, walked over and hugged his fist towards Tang Ke, "This brother, thanks to you for saving me just now, otherwise, tonight would be my Zheng someone's sacrifice day." ”

"I'm just looking at the Japanese Kou unpleasantly." Tang Ke stood up, and also learned from Zheng Long to return the salute with his fists, which was a bit of a person in the rivers and lakes.

"The Japanese have repeatedly violated our borders, brutalized the people, and robbed assets, which is indeed hateful, as long as I am a man from the five continents, I should look at them unpleasantly."

"Only when you fall behind will you be beaten. Don't blame foreigners for being hateful, and think more about why you are always being bullied. "Donk always has something to say. Although this is a little straighter, it is very reasonable.

"Brother, you're right." Zheng Long sighed, "If it weren't for the fact that the imperial court didn't pay attention to coastal defense, our coastal mountain villages wouldn't have been attacked all the time. ”

Donk naturally remembered the ban on the sea of the pit people. He pointed to his feet and said, "If your injuries aren't serious." Let's just sit down and talk. ”

"My injuries don't get in the way, let alone talking, even if I drink a few sips of wine, it's fine." Zheng Long patted the bandage on his stomach, where there was a faint golden light. Apparently it has been dealt with with by the spell of the warrior monk.

The two sat down head-on, one holding a jar of wine, and chatted. Zheng Long asked about Tang Ke's identity, and Tang Ke answered truthfully, claiming to be a pirate from the other side of the Gem Sea. Although the national policy of Wuzhou is closed, there are still people who will smuggle out by boat, and it is not uncommon to be a pirate in a foreign country, Zheng Long didn't care. As for Zheng Long's identity. Donk already knew the probability, so he just asked casually. The two knew each other's details, and drank together, even if they knew each other.

"I don't understand. Since the ban on the sea is so deceitful, why did the imperial court issue this decree? Donk asked, dissatisfied. He had traveled from the modern world to this ancient society, and he was able to see what the ban would bring to the country. If the ban on the sea continues, the countries of the five continents will definitely fall behind more and more in the future, and distance themselves from other countries with developed maritime transportation. Until then. It's too late to make amends.

If it weren't for the fact that the five continents were all yellow, Tang Ke would not have bothered with this idleness.

"To put it bluntly, it is because the current emperor is short-sighted and narrow-minded. Today's emperor only wants the common people to grow the land. I don't want ordinary people to do business, which is also the so-called heavy agriculture and suppression of business. The emperor thought that the five continents were vast and rich. It is enough to be self-sufficient, and there is no need to trade with foreign countries. Therefore, a ban on the sea was issued, and all the coastal sailors were thrown into the canal. If there is no sailor, the coastal defense will naturally be poor, and the Japanese will be even more rampant. In the past few years, the sailors of the Wuzhou Kingdom were so strong that the Japanese did not dare to invade us. But now the pirates have completely treated us as their own backyard, and they have come to grab money if they have nothing to do. Zheng Long replied hatefully.

"So that's the case, because there are no sailors left, and the coast can't resist the invasion of the pirates, that's why you became a pirate, right?" …,

"Yes, although our gang is called pirates, we don't burn and loot everywhere, we do all righteous deeds against the pirates. Before I became the leader of this pirate, I was also a naval officer, and I didn't want to listen to the orders of the imperial court, so I took my soldiers to become pirates. Although we are not tolerated by the court law, we are worthy of heaven and earth, worthy of the people, and worthy of our ancestors and ancestors. ”

"No wonder you named the Xingyi Group, it turned out to be a chivalrous and righteous act."

"If the imperial court is willing to send troops to fight against the Japanese invaders, we don't need to do so, who wants to be pirates." Zheng Long shook his head and sighed.

"Since the ban on the sea is a failed decree, why didn't any officials go to the court and revoke it?"

"The Son of Heaven has no jokes, who dares to say bad about the decree issued by the emperor? Those who are officials as long as they can keep their black gauze hats, how can they think about these things, every day they go to the court are singing praises and praising virtues, and patting the emperor's sycophants. Zheng Long looked disdainful.

"Centralization is harmful." Donk remembered the five empires of the Sea of Jewels, which, although also centralized, had already shown the germ of capitalism, and the power was in the hands of the rich.

Centralized systems often have the idea that a small fortune is safe, as long as they ensure the stability of their own regime. And capitalism looks at money in everything, likes to expand, expand and expand, make no money, make no money, and make no money. Centralization, although in its hands, is not as fast as capitalism. In contrast, development is king.

The five continents imposed a ban on the sea, preventing a large number of officials and civilians from building ships and going out to do business, which not only curbed the development of the navigation industry, but also prevented the development of other derivative industries, such as logging industry, handicraft industry, etc., and the loss of money was not ordinary.

Tang Ke felt that the emperor of Wuzhou should be able to see these drawbacks, after all, the emperor is not a fool. The reason why the emperor imposed a ban on the sea knowing that it would cause losses to the country was probably because he was afraid that shipping would bring great changes to the country, and that this change would shake the imperial power.

"If I can lift the ban on the sea with my life, I will not even frown and die generously immediately." Zheng Long said something unrealistic, but it also showed his patriotism.

"Brother Zheng is also a man, I admire you very much." Tang Ke toasted with Zheng Long for a glass of wine.

The two drank three rounds and talked about a lot of things, and the topic gradually shifted from the ethereal matter of lifting the sea ban to more practical things. For example, what to do with Kato Kayama.

Kato Kayama's Aoto Group has a total of 2,000 members, which is one of the top five gangs among the Tsukikuni's widows. Kato Kayama has an older brother named Kato Nobunaga, and this person is the boss of the Blue Gate Group. Tough, extremely difficult to deal with. If you want to eradicate the Blue Gate Group, you have to kill Kato Nobunaga.

"What profession is this Nobunaga Kato? How high is the strength? Donk asked.

"He's a ninja, much stronger than me, and although I haven't fought him, he's killed people who are much better than me. In the past two years, the Qingmen Group has done evil everywhere, causing complaints along the coast, and many righteous people have gone to sea to crusade against the Qingmen Group. But no one made it back alive. Zheng Long replied worriedly.

"What rank of ninja is he?"

"How many steps? What is Order? Zheng Long was stunned when he heard this.

"Aren't there any classes on your side? For example, a fifth-order warrior monk or something. ”

"There are no levels of people in the Five Continents, but some exercises will have layers or weights, for example, the Demon Fu Gong I have cultivated has reached the fifth level. As for Nobunaga Kato, I don't know to what extent he has reached. ”…,

That's when Donk knew. It turns out that the division of power around the world is not uniform, and there are some places where people are very strong, but they will not be divided into ranks. In fact, some of the levels he detected with investigation were divided by the system itself.

In the world, only the Sea of Gems has an extremely complete hierarchy. No matter what profession is divided into ten ranks, there are fewer other places that are divided into ranks. Sometimes, being strong doesn't need to be marked with numbers.

"I don't know how strong Nobunaga Kato is, but it's enough to be stronger than you. What are you going to do with him? "Donk did it by the way this time, and he didn't intend to help people to the end. It would be too time-consuming to eradicate an organization like the Blue Gate Group, and it would delay his trip to find the Resurrection Spring.

"I'm going to use Kato Kayama as a hostage. Invite Kato Nobunaga to my White Shark Village and kill him on my territory. Of course, I have to set up a trap in the White Shark Village beforehand, otherwise I won't be his opponent. ”

"I wish you success." Donk raised the bowl.

Zheng Long toasted with Tang Ke, and then said, "Brother Tang, do you want to go to my White Shark Village to sit down?" My White Shark Village is not far from here, and it is only a night voyage. ”

"Hehe, still can't."

"Brother Tang, don't get me wrong, I invited you to White Shark Village just to invite you to go there to rest, and I didn't think of asking you to help me deal with the Qingmen Group. I'm already grateful that you saved me tonight and captured Kato Kayama. ”

"It's not because of this, I still have important things on me, so I don't want to delay."

"It's not bad if there's anything important This night, Brother Tang and I hit it off at first sight, and I really don't want to part like this. If Brother Tang doesn't dislike it, go to my White Shark Village and sit down. ”

Zheng Long invited again and again, but it was really difficult to refuse, so Tang Ke agreed. The Black Pearl had sailed from the Jewel Sea and had not docked much for several months, and the sailors on board were already so tired that they really needed to go ashore for two days.

The Black Pearl and Zheng Long's ship rushed to the White Shark Village together, and Zheng Long was amazed when he saw the strangely shaped Black Pearl. Tang Ke took Zheng Long to the Black Pearl, let Zheng Long take a closer look, and also let Zheng Long take a few glances at the Panshan Snake.

Zheng Long saw the Black Pearl and the Panshan Snake tonight, which was an eye-opener, and he also had a clearer understanding of Tang Ke's strength, he saw that Tang Ke's strength background was much larger than his own, and he had a heart to make friends in his heart.

The fleet sailed for half a day, from night to day, and by noon the next day, at last saw the shadow of an island. Although the Xingyi group had nothing to do with the people, it was an illegal organization after all, and it could not go ashore on the coast of Wuzhou Kingdom, so it could only find a suitable island as a base and build a small cottage.

The number of people in the Xingyi group is not large, and fighting the Japanese is not a money-making business, so there are naturally few people who can attract them, most of them are Zheng Long's former subordinates, and the rest are patriots, or people who have enemies with the Japanese invaders.

Tang Ke and Zheng Long stood side by side on the bow of the Black Pearl, looking at the White Shark Village, Zheng Long told some things about the White Shark Village, and Tang Ke occasionally wiped a few words.

"Huh?" Tang Ke suddenly frowned, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his pupils shrank, "How can your White Shark Village have fire." ”
