Chapter 282: Calm (2-in-1)

'Boom' The tide is rolling, and the fire is red.

On the surface of a blue sea, the Pioneer traveled 32 days and finally arrived at the point of the mission within the boundaries of Nanzhou.

Today, it's around four o'clock in the afternoon.

Jiang Cang stood at the bow of the boat and looked at an island about ten miles away in the distance.

Let's look at the nautical map of the world that I originally bought.

The island in front is marked on the map, and it is a continent in Nanshu called 'Far Island'. ’

There is also a line of small print below the name that explains the origin of the distant island.

Roughly speaking, when a strong grandmaster discovered this island 10,000 years ago, he saw that the island was a little 'round', and then searched for the 'list of state islands', and found that all the good names were occupied, so he hereby named it with the same sounding 'far'.

However, the name of this island sounds a bit 'random', and it is located in the sea area west of Nanzhou, which is really far away, and there are no states and no shipping routes around, and it is located in a remote area.

But after Xiao and the others came to this sea area, they did not fish or sleep well, but concentrated their energy and looked around to prevent any danger from coming.

Because it is still a sentence, I and others have already arrived at the 'mission location', and every small negligence may destroy the 'mission coherence', so of course you should be careful.

Not for the task, but also for their own safety.

The pioneers did not rely on their own strength, they were really as leisurely and leisurely as they appeared.

"The island ahead is the far island, right? It doesn't look like there's a lot of prosperity like Teshima.."

Xiao looked at the island in the distance at this time, he did not have a 'eagle vision', and he could see the distant island clearly from ten miles away, and the area of the distant island was not small, not inferior to a large island such as Toshima.

It's just that Wu Hong and the others looked back and forth in the nearby waters, and there were not many ships coming and going on the routes around the far island, as Xiao said, it seemed a little 'prosperous'. ’

"The area of the far island is not small." Xiao retracted his gaze, and made a summary to everyone according to the 'depiction of the distant island' of the seabirds in mid-air, "But in general, the geographical location of the distant island is a little poor. It can't compare to the intersection of the four continents of Toshima, and it is not as good as the four regardless of the concession of Egret Island. ”

"It's like our real border." Wu Hong suddenly said a very straightforward sentence, describing the current situation of the far island as seen by Xiao is very different, and it is still very close to reality.

Also, many remote countries are large in area, but the degree of prosperity is a bit unsatisfactory.

The situation on the far island is actually similar to them.

"The coordinate point of the mission is on a distant island.." Yun Mu kept looking at the distant island, wondering if the mission would be easier this time.

Because according to the current form, the pursuit of the island owner's council, the task of himself and others seems to be a little difficult. ’

The process of this task is still unavoidable, if you want to take it, you have to kill Luo Huai, and then offend the owner of Fengdao, it is useless to beg for mercy and say good things.

If it works, this is not a dangerous Yuan Energy world.

"When you go to the far island, let Captain Qian and them be on guard outside the island." Jiang Cang didn't care what everyone was thinking, but directly made an arrangement, "They are not in the hunt list of the Island Lord's Council, so it's better to let them lean on the periphery." There's nothing wrong with less things. We have a mission ahead of us, and maybe it's safer off the island. ”

"I'll deliver the message now." The owl nodded, and a seabird hovering in the air landed on his shoulder.

It didn't take a few breaths.

The owl finished writing a letter and tied it to the seabird's ankle, which flew backwards.

Captain Qian, they all followed behind, including Brother Li was also on their boat.

This is all ordered by Jiang Cang, Captain Qian can follow them along the way to show their loyalty, but it is best to keep some distance from their own ships, otherwise they may not be able to take care of them if they are fighting with any master at sea.

It's better for everyone to disperse, there is really something wrong, they can't beat it themselves, they just go, they know their intentions, they really don't need to come to death.

That's the way it is, although it's a little unpleasant, but they can't beat the enemy, and if they come again, they will give hundreds of lives.

And at the same time.

On Heron Island, 30,000 miles away, by the ferry.

It was bustling with activity, as usual, and as the evening wore on, the returning ships filled the entire crossing, and traders and pirates talked about the day's harvest.

It's just that at this time, an old man dressed as a housekeeper didn't know what news he heard, so he suddenly said goodbye to the ferryman who was chasing him around, and turned around and walked quickly in the direction of the Lord of Ludao Island's mansion.

When they came to the outside of the mansion.

He nodded to the people who saluted him, and when he learned that the lord of Egret Island was now in the study, he walked towards the backyard again.

No one stopped me along the way.

The housekeeper came to the study, knocked on the door twice, heard the word 'enter', did not delay, entered the study, and told the owner of the heron island who was sitting behind the bookcase the news he had just gotten.

"Just now a captain from Feidao came to the ferry, and I heard him say that there was news from the island owner's council that the owner of Toshima had died, and that a man named Jiang Cang had killed him. And what is the Pioneer ... Now that a bounty has been ordered in the council, the news has spread throughout the Central Plains."

The butler said, frowning and thinking, and then said, "If this news is true... Don't.. Could it be that this pioneer is the same person who killed the black fox a few months ago? ”

The words fell.

It was quiet inside the house.

The owner of the heron island slowly closed his eyes, as if he was beginning to close his eyes and recuperate, and did not say anything.

The butler stood aside, looking at the dreary atmosphere, and did not leave, nor did he feel any pressure, but waited for orders.

Wait until the time has passed.

'Click' The teacup sounded, and the owner of Egret Island spoke.

It sounded like an exclamation to the housekeeper.

"Lord Toshima is dead. I didn't expect the news to come now.. Or is it from outsiders' gossip.. It seems that we are really not welcome here... What happened in the Central Plains, we don't know until now.."

The owner of Egret Island opened his eyes, picked up the teapot on the table, two cups, and poured out the tea that had already been brewed.

"It's also a good skill. Being able to kill the Lord of Fengdao proves that Jiang Cang has touched the realm of the Grandmaster. It seems that this deal is bad, and it shouldn't have caused so much trouble. In the final analysis, I'm still a little anxious for quick success, I should wait a little longer, I shouldn't make friends with the Lord of Toshima too early, and I want to get through the news network of the Central Plains.. I didn't think about this urgency.,But let the lord of Toshima provoke a person who shouldn't be messed with.。。。 I'm also at fault.."

"The owner of the island is not wrong." The housekeeper heard that the owner of the island of Ludao was a little remorseful, so he sighed and shook his head, "The owner of the island also wants to win over an island owner for the prosperity of our island island." If there is a mistake, it should be that our realm is too low to help the island owner... Then let the owner of the island go to the rest of the people.."

"That's it." The master of Ludao took a sip of tea, and pushed a cup of tea towards the housekeeper, "It doesn't matter who is right or who is wrong." Now it's time to wonder if Captain Jiang will come to Heron Island to trouble us. If he really comes, the housekeeper will take care of the situation on Egret Island. ”

"It's a subordinate duty!" The housekeeper clenched his fists in response, "If it weren't for the island owner saving his subordinates fifteen years ago, his subordinates would have been dead people a long time ago." ”

"Even if I don't save me." The Lord of Egret Island recognized the butler's words, and pushed the tea again, "With the strength of your grandmaster back then, it only took a little more effort to kill those pirate kings of the innate realm." I just helped you to come to the island to settle down, cleaned a house, and saved you some troubles in the future. These are insignificant. You have been with me for fifteen years, and you have been guarding Egret Island for fifteen years, and you have already paid off this account. ”

"The subordinates have long regarded Egret Island as their home.." The housekeeper shook his head, "Shouldn't you protect your own home, your own family?" ”

"Yes." The owner of Egret Island pushed the tea again.

The housekeeper took the teacup, and the two looked at each other and smiled, like subordinates and masters, like friends for many years, and more like brothers and family.

The two Grandmaster Dacheng realm powerhouses are really not afraid that the pioneers will come to trouble them.

But they don't know.

Jiang Cang and Xiao had already arrived at the ferry port on a distant island 30,000 miles away at this time.

is also not strong, the task is not completed, Jiang Cang will not try to find their business.

After all, if Egret Island can exist, the strength of the Egret Island Lord must be extraordinary, or there may be helpers, what two island owners and the like.

I'm not stupid, wait for the grandmaster to say it, it's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years.

And before, with the message of the owl, Captain Qian and they didn't have any shyness about their children, so they listened to their own words and chose to keep their distance nearby.

This is now.

On the far island, there are only their own pioneers, and they can let go of their hands and feet, and if something really happens, just continue walking.

But as the ship docked, there were not many boats nearby, and there were no boatmen, so they stopped casually.

Jiang Cang and Xiao got off the boat, but they were curious, not curious about whether this island was prosperous, but about the land and ground, which were a little soft to step on. ’

I can't say that kind of feeling, it's like this island is made up of 'mud', it's very awkward, and if you borrow force from the ground, it will be half a point weaker and sink in.

"There's something strange about the geology.." The owl stepped on the ground with his foot, and with a slight force, the soles of his feet were about to sink in.

Jiang Cang kept walking, trying to find a place to live, the sun set late in this world, and now it was past five o'clock, and it would be dark soon.

"It's really too 'fluffy' .." Yun Mu followed Brother Jiang and tried it at the same time, he thought it was interesting, and glanced at the nearby trees, but he picked up the topic of the owl, but his footsteps did not stop.

"If it weren't for the fact that the 'surface' of this island is full of trees, and the roots of the trees seeping into the ground, I wonder if this could be the body of some deep-sea beast? We are now standing on its body... That's why it's so soft, like some kind of animal skin? ”

"There's a good chance that this idea will hold." Xiao nodded, not deliberately to scare everyone, but really speculated: "This island has existed for 16,000 years in the records. If it is really the corpse of a sea beast, it is very likely to be 'earthy'. ”

Xiao said, seeing Rou and the others looking curiously, he said seriously: "Don't ask me what the reason is, and how it was formed." All I can say is that it's a magical world where anything can happen. ”

"It's not just guessing.." Wu Hong laughed, "I also said that it was some kind of magic weapon, and the tribulation was unsuccessful, so it fell into the ocean and became a small island... You see, I have a basis. According to records, at that time 16,000 years ago, this island suddenly appeared! ”

"Maybe it's just an ordinary island." The shadow shook his head, feeling that after Yunmu opened a topic, the two of them fought back and forth, and the more they talked, the more unreliable they became.

If it's really an animal, don't say anything else, let's talk about it first!

also thought of doing it, and the shadow stabbed into the soil in the eyes of Wu Hong and others who wanted to stop it and looked forward to it!

'Boom' the dirt turned over.

Reflecting the afterglow of the setting sun, there was still mud inside, some gravel, nothing happened, there was no earth-shattering roar, and the island rioted.

And when Jiang Cang saw everyone's exploration, he felt that they really watched too much TV, because the rules of the Yuan Energy World were very weird, and if they really had to do something, they would never be so old-fashioned.

If you have that time to explore, you might as well find a tavern for a drink and a fragrant dinner.

"I've gone through a lot of tasks in the Yuan Energy World." Jiang Cang saw that everyone continued to calculate for a trivial matter, so he directly interrupted: "As long as there is no island in the prompt, then this island is no problem, and there is no need to worry about it." Let's think about it in another way, think about what the task is, whether we should wait for the people from the Lords' Meeting to chase after us, or wait for time. The method of the next task should be these two 'instant generation'. ”

"We're just talking and playing.." Wu Hong smiled and quickly followed the dragon's side, "I always look at Master Xiao every day as if he knows everything, I really put up with him for a long time!" ”

"How can I listen to Master Wu's words." Jiang Cang walked along, thought about it, and suddenly smiled, "It seems to be talking about me.."

'He's just talking about you..' The shadow put away his dagger, his face expressionless, and walked behind the group.

Rou Wan'er smiled, and suddenly stopped.

Wu Hong clenched his fists and clenched his fists, and stopped talking.

Xiao is shook his head, looked at Yun Mu who was smiling next to him, and said, "Sometimes it's really too much.. Will want to be biased.. Perhaps the task of the Yuan Energy Rule is simple, as long as we follow along. ”

"That's what it is." Jiang Cang smiled, and taught more than a dozen worlds by word and deed, and they finally opened up.

Not much to say.

The crowd then walked forward.

When we came to a small town four miles away near the ferry, the number of pedestrians gradually increased.

Go further inside.

After walking through two streets, I chose a three-story inn with a good scale in the town.

Book a courtyard behind the inn with eight rooms.

Choose the food and let the chef do it.

Jiang Cang and the others came to the courtyard under the false guidance of Xiao Er, and used a guest room as a private room for eating.

But Jiang Cang and the others sat down and waited for the wine and food to be served.

But when Xiao Er went out, he came to the back kitchen.

The innkeeper was also there, and it was the deposit he received just now, but for some reason he ran to the back kitchen again.

"That's right.." When Xiao Er saw the innkeeper, he gestured in his hand, and he didn't lower his voice, "It's exactly the same as the drawings from the council, those people are the crew of the Pioneer!" Captain Chang Chang is also there! I didn't expect them to really come, but they still came to us.. This credit cannot be taken by anyone else.."

"Just be sure." The shopkeeper nodded, and looked at the back kitchen next to him, "It's better to cook for them with peace of mind, don't do anything in the meal, and wait for the evening." I'll go and report to my brother-in-law, the 'Far Island Master'."

Words fall.

The shopkeeper went out from the side door, Xiao Er and the kitcheners glanced at each other, everything was as the shopkeeper said, and I would talk about it in the evening.

I believe that Jiang Cang and they have run a sea journey, and now they see that the food is normal, and when they go to bed that night, their precautions will definitely be relatively poor, probably subconsciously.

It's all about opportunity.

And many inns, taverns, and even around this town, there are people like them, who belong to the distant island masters, who have been waiting for Jiang Cang and them to come.

News of the parliament reached here a few days ago.

They all have arrangements.

And as time passes.

Wine and food are served.

It's not just them that have a purpose.

During the meal, the owl heard the low chirping of birds outside the window, and suddenly stared, and the voice was transmitted to the people who were eating: "The people in this inn are all looking at us intentionally or unintentionally. It gives me a very strange feeling, like knowing us and looking at us, but pretending not to know us... Didn't say hello to us either.. I always felt like there was something wrong with them... Could it be someone from the council? ’

'Quite possibly..' Yunmu nodded, "Anyway, let's be careful.. Although the meal is no problem, listen to the meaning of Brother Xiao... They're going to get their hands dirty.. Most likely at night..'

'The wine in this shop is good. Jiang Cang listened to everyone's conversation, sipping sake, "Floating on the sea for a month, have a good meal, don't think about it." The sky is falling, and I am on top of it. Just eat well..'

The night is quiet.

Jiang Cang's words fell, and they didn't speak, and ate well according to the meaning of the dragon's head.

When Jiang Cang saw it, he smiled, as the eldest brother, he was sitting here, not saying anything else, but he definitely let his younger brothers and sisters have a safe meal.

But five thousand miles away.

The sea was overcast and the moon was setting.

Three battleships were not far apart and parallel.

Among them are in the middle of the warship.

Sail position.

The flying island master sat on a solid wood chair and asked the person who had just received the flying pigeon's book, "Is it news from your Southern State Council?" ”

"Yes.." The courier nodded, "Flying Island Master." When we set out from the flying island, I had sent a message back to the far island to put them on guard. Now I reply to the letter, there is news that there is a pioneer in ten times.."

As he spoke, the messenger opened the letter, glanced at it, and reported with a slight smile: "As expected by the Lord of the Flying Island and the Witch! The Pioneer has indeed arrived on the far island, and is now settling in an inn."

"That's good." The flying island lord leaned half back in his chair and looked at the night sea in the distance, "Since your Southern State Council has determined the arrival of the pioneers, you have taken precautions and have a countermeasure. I hope that when I go over, I will see Jiang Cang's heads, instead of asking me to take out my weapons and personally delay the time to kill them. ”
