Shi Ziling and his entourage chartered the best cargo ship "Hurricane" at a high price several times the market price on the seaside, and after purchasing some necessary food and clothing, they immediately set off for Dongli Island by boat.

This ship was originally used to load goods and go to sea, and it is already one of the best cargo ships in the area, and it has also transported goods to Dongli Island several times. Although they have never deliberately gone overseas just to carry a few people, since they are willing to pay several times the high price of the goods in Shiziling, the shipowner is naturally happy to accept it.

Besides, you can bring back a lot of goods on the return trip, and you can make a lot of money at that time, so why not do it.

Although this boat is not as luxurious and comfortable as the carriage they took when they came, it is also equipped with a large cabin for people to rest, and the space is naturally much larger than that of the carriage.

After the cabin was completely covered by Shiziling, Sakura Kokomi and Kirithara Xiang quickly cleaned the cabin and laid out the brand-new sheets and bedding they had purchased themselves. Although it can't be compared with the mansions on land, it is also neat and spacious, enough for three people to live comfortably.

Shi Ziling looked at the newly furnished cabin and said with a smile: "Fortunately, with the two of you by your side, the cabin was packed up like a small mansion so quickly, it seems that our trip to the sea this time will be as comfortable as on land." ”

Sakura smiled and said, "We also bought a lot of food and fruits, which is enough for us to eat along the way." As long as we don't encounter a major storm, we will be able to return to Higashirishima in less than a month. In that case, the senior sisters and sisters in the door will no longer have to worry about the attack of the demon seed. ”

Kirithara Xiang said: "Even if I encounter a big storm, I am not afraid, with the master by our side, whether it is a storm or a pirate, Xiao Xiang is not afraid of anything." ”

Shi Ziling smiled: "I'm a little worried about a big storm. However, according to the sailors on the ship, the ship is very strong and can withstand even storms. You say you're not afraid of pirates, but how can there be a lot of pirates on the sea? It seems that even in this vast sea, it is not very peaceful. ”

Sakura Xinmei said: "The world is not good now, although there are many thieves on the land, and the sea is not much better. When we came, we encountered two pirates, but both of them were for the cargo of the ship, but not for the passengers on board. ”

"Because most of the people who go to sea are cargo ships, there are not many tourists who go overseas by boat, and even if there are, most of them are poor people who can't get along in the local area, and generally don't have much oil and water. However, I have also heard that there are several vicious pirates at sea who not only rob goods, but also kill people and rob property at every turn. ”

Kirihara said: "It is rumored that many pirates are now stationed in the coastal area, and they can find out which ships are loaded with valuable goods, and they will send clippers to follow behind and wait for the opportunity to rob." ”

"So now some big cargo ships will hire powerful bodyguards to escort the ship, we are chartering a boat this time, I wonder if Captain Lu Dao has hired guards to protect us......?"

Shi Ziling said: "No wonder, when I chartered the boat, the captain also mentioned whether to ask the escort team to follow, I said that we were just in a hurry to go to Dongli Island to do business, and we didn't carry any valuables, so we didn't need to ask any guards." ”

"But the captain said that for the sake of the high price I offered, he would still have a trusted escort with us to protect us, and they would use it when they came back anyway. ”

Sakura Xinmei smiled: "If any of the pirates are blind and dare to provoke us, then they will be guaranteed to go and never return." ”

Kirithara Xiang smiled: "Sister Xinmei didn't allow me to cause trouble when I came, and now I can rest assured that I have the master by my side." I'm making a big improvement in my strength now, and I'm trying to find a few opponents to have a good time, so don't you rob me when the time comes!"

Sakura sneered, "You really want to run into pirates! This is at sea, not on land, and if you really want to provoke those pirates, it won't be fun if our ship sinks." ”

"So, I advise you, even if you do encounter pirates, you should hide in the cabin obediently, and they will see that there is no cargo to grab on board, and maybe they will go back. We just want to get back to Dongli Island as soon as possible, and it's better not to make trouble, if you like to find someone to fight, then let the master send you to participate in the martial arts competition. ”

Kirihara Xiang was counted down by Sakura Xinmei, so she had to pout and stop talking.

Shi Ziling asked, "Why is there a martial arts tournament on Dongli Island every year?"

Sakura Shinmi said: "It's not every year, but once every ten years, there is a tournament between the major schools of Higashirishima. ”

At that time, each school will select two good players to participate in the competition of boxing and kendo. In addition to the generous rewards of land and property, the top three winners can also receive the title of the strongest samurai of Higashirishima conferred by the Queen of Heaven, which can be described as both fame and fortune, and is very attractive to masters of all major genres. ”

"This once-in-a-decade battle is the martial arts sacrament of Dongli Island, and almost all major and small schools will send the strongest masters to fight. Since our 'Dead Night Gate' took root in Higashirishima, the previous masters have been able to achieve good rankings in almost every martial arts tournament, so although there are not many people in the door, and most of them are women, it is a very respected school in Higashirijima. ”

Shi Ziling asked curiously, "What do you mean by the queen of heaven just now?"

Ying Xinmei said: "The Queen of Heaven is the queen of our East Fence Island country, which is equivalent to the emperor of the Bright Moon Continent." ”

However, although the queen of heaven was highly respected, she rarely interfered in the specific affairs of the island, and was generally entrusted to the management of great generals such as Oda and Tokugawa. There are many masters under these generals, and many of them were recruited by the generals because they made a name for themselves in the martial arts competition. ”

"Ten years ago, in the general battle, the old master Kato-sama only won a third place, so he did not hesitate to exchange two superb Tianshan Snow Lotus with Li Yuan at the cost of the illustration of 'Nine Yuan Customs Clearance' to replace the ruthless fruit, in order to practice the 'Dementor **' to the extreme. For this tournament in October this year. ”

"If you can successfully defeat the crowd in this battle, Kato-sama is ready to return to the Bright Moon Continent to make a big difference. ”

Shi Ziling nodded, still a little surprised in his heart, he had seen Kato Ying's strength, although it was inferior to Li Yuan, it was not too far behind.

Ten years ago, Kato Taka although the "Dementor **" has not yet succeeded, but it should be regarded as a first-class master, but I didn't expect to be ranked third on East Fence Island, it seems that this East Fence Island is also a place where the dragon and the Crouching Tiger are hidden.

Kirithara Xiang said: "Door Master, this time you rush back to Dongli Island, you must represent our 'Dead Night Gate' to get the first place in this ten-year battle, Xiao Xiang believes that the door master will definitely be able to do it." ”

Shi Ziling smiled and said: "I'm here to save people, not to compete in martial arts, didn't I say it, the first and second in martial arts are all false names, don't fight." ”

Sakura Xinmei and Kirithara Xiang heard Shi Ziling's meaning and seemed to have no intention of participating in this martial arts competition, so they were so anxious that they hurriedly bowed to the ground.

Sakura Xinmei said: "Master of the Gate, we must participate in the general battle of the 'Dead Night Gate' every ten years, otherwise it will be regarded as disrespectful to the Queen of Heaven. In this way, all our disciples and the disciples and family members of the subordinate 'Triple Society' will be punished by the Queen of Heaven and the Great General, and please think twice. ”

Shi Ziling hurriedly helped the two girls up and said, "It turns out that if you don't participate in the martial arts competition, you will be punished? Then let's see when the time comes, it's really not good, so I'll participate." Anyway, it's not a bad thing to be able to compete with the masters. ”

"Eh, didn't we say that all of us were women, and why were there any 'triple meetings'?"
