Chapter 241: Struggling

It took three days for the mastship named "Elaine" to finally reach the waters off Porter Island.

During the three-day voyage, the Elaine was attacked twice by pirates.

Moyu was ready to help, but the crew of the Elaine easily repelled the pirates.

Their tacit cooperation and skillful methods were all seen by Mo You.

Dealing with pirates was a daily routine for the crew.

To Mo You's surprise, the captain who basically didn't show up after he got on the boat was actually a mind-to-mind person who didn't show his ability to show mountains and rivers.

The main reason why the crew was able to repel the pirates unharmed was because the captain intervened to calm the scene.

Mo You watched from the sidelines, and thus saw the strength of the captain, and was undoubtedly a senior mindful who was proficient in advanced mindfulness techniques.

Just taking a boat to meet a master, it is inevitable that Mo You has a wonderful feeling that "there are actually many people with mental ability".

On the sea, the mast ship broke the waves.

"In about an hour or so, we'll be on Porter Island."

Asked for voyage information from a middle-aged crew member, Moyu looked at the blue horizon ahead.

The five continents and various archipelagos of the Hunter World are actually highly similar to the continental plates of the previous life, and even in terms of culture, there is a sense of "the same origin".

This can be seen from the ninja culture of Porter Island, and even the local specialty of sushi.

Moyu is still a little curious about the upcoming arrival on Porter Island.

However, he will focus on Lin Wan's swing of the sword, and I am afraid that he will not have much time to travel to the country of Hanzang.

And according to the crew, the residents of Porter Island are very xenophobic, and the whole country has a tendency to "close off the country".

"It's almost there."

Menqi handed Mo You a plate of freshly cut sashimi as thin as cicada wings, and said weakly: "Sailing or something, it's even more boring than I imagined." ”

In the past three days, Menqi was also in high spirits for the first day, taking a fishing rod to catch some fish that had never been cooked before.

But when the novelty wears off, there is no longer that excitement of catching new ingredients.

This made her desperate to go ashore and go to Porter Island in search of ingredients she had never seen before.

Moyu took the sashimi and said with a smile: "I heard from the crew that there is no place on the voyage route where we can land on Porter Island, so they will send us there in a small boat at that time." ”

"It's so troublesome to listen to."

After handing the sashimi to Moyu, Menqi lowered his head and cleaned up the kitchen utensils.

Moyu picked up a piece of sashimi and put it in his mouth, and said softly, "The trouble is the return, maybe you won't be able to find a boat to leave." ”

Menqi didn't care much.

For her, as long as she cultivates and grows with Mo You, it doesn't matter where she is.

An hour later.

The Elaine arrives offshore of Porter Island.

The crew left a small boat behind and motioned for Moyu and Menqi to get ready to board.

At this moment, the captain of the Elaine suddenly walked over.

"The old man sent them over."

"Huh?"

Hearing his captain's words, several crew members standing on the side of the ship looked at each other.

This kind of trivial matter of sending people to the island, it is the first time they have seen their captain take the initiative.

"You two, keep up."

Ignoring the surprised reactions of his crew, the captain gestured to Moyu and Menqi to follow, and landed directly on the boat along the zipline.

Mo You and Menqi glanced at each other, and then jumped into the boat.

The captain looked at them, picked up the oars, and rowed the boat to the beach not far away.

"Why did you go to Porter Island?"

As the boat rowed some distance, the captain suddenly asked.

When Menqi heard this, he almost blurted out that he wanted to practice.

Holding back her at the last moment, she turned to look at Moyu.

Mo You shook his head helplessly, then looked at the captain, and said calmly: "I heard that there are many delicacies on Porter Island that are not even available on other continents, and we are very interested in this aspect. ”

“……”

When the captain heard this, he did not say anything more.

Soon, the boat washed up on the beach against the waves.

The captain stood at the bow of the boat, silently watching Moyu and Menqi.

"Thank you."

Moyu thanked him, then led Menqi to jump onto the beach and walk towards the forest in the distance.

The captain looked at their distant backs, and suddenly said, "The old man's boat will pass by here every half a month, and the time is about the same as now." ”

“……”

Mo You looked back at the captain in some surprise, but saw that the other party had turned around and pushed the boat into the sea.

It seems that there is no need to worry about the return trip.

Stopping, Moyu watched the captain of the Elaine leave.

When the ship was gone, Mo You withdrew his gaze and crossed the beach with Menqi and walked straight into the dense forest.

After walking some distance in the forest, Moyu noticed that the trees here were all surprisingly large and leafy, and it seemed that few humans had set foot here.

Wright was right, there was a lot of life here.

After about two hours of walking in the forest, Moyu and Menqi found a suitable spot near a waterfall.

For the next three months, they will start their practice here.

After deciding on the temporary residence, Mo You did not rush to turn on the effect of the Lin Wan Swing Knife.

He was going to start after midnight.

Night falls.

At midnight, the moon hung high.

Mo Yu stood on the edge of the waterfall, holding an ordinary long knife.

"Consume Pro: 10,000 Swings of the Sword"

With his eyes closed, Mo You chose to swing the knife in the depths of his consciousness.

From this moment on, he will have to complete the standard 10,000 swings per day.

"Let's get started......"

Mo You slowly opened his eyes, raised the knife above his head with both hands, and immediately slashed forward.

With a slight sound of breaking through the air, a sword flash was fleeting, and the tip of the long knife hung above the ground.

The action is complete, but the count in the depths of consciousness does not change.

This shows that the action of swinging the knife is not up to standard.

"Too fast......"

Mo You retracted his knife, slowed down slightly, and then swung another knife forward.

This time, counting began in the depths of consciousness.

「1/10000」

"A swing is about 4 to 5 seconds, which means that it takes about 14 hours to complete 10,000 swings, provided that each swing is up to par."

Mo You thought to himself, and swung his knife again.

Try to make sure that every swing is up to par, otherwise you are likely to fail due to lack of time.

Subsequently, Mo Yu swung his sword down ten times, and only six times met the standard.

"It doesn't seem that easy."

Mo You cheered up and swung every knife seriously.

About twenty-one hours have passed.

Mo You didn't eat or drink, and he didn't rest halfway, so he spent 21 hours in a row to complete the 10,000 check-in tasks on the first day.

The whole process can be described as difficult.

But because of this, Moyu is looking forward to the results and rewards in three months.

At the end of the day, Menqi basically watched Mo You wield a knife.

She didn't know why Mo You suddenly practiced the sword, and the way she practiced on the first day was twenty-one hours of non-stop sword swinging......

The concentration that was evident when swinging the knife made it impossible for Menqi to intervene in any way.

All kinds of delicacies that are carefully prepared with local materials can only be set aside to cool down.

It wasn't until about nine o'clock in the evening that Menqi finally saw Mo You stop swinging the knife and sat down very tired.

"Master, drink water."

Seeing this, Menqi walked quickly to Mo You with a glass of water.

Mo You was slightly stunned, put the long knife beside him, took the water handed over by Menqi, and drank it all.

It lasted about twenty-one hours, and I didn't count how many times I swung the knife.

As a rough estimate, it should be more than 15,000 times.

Before he started, Moyu had expected the process to be difficult.

But I really didn't expect the first day to take twenty-one hours.

"When the proficiency is high, it should be able to reduce the time to about fourteen hours."

Mo Yu put down the water glass, deeply feeling the difficulty of swinging the knife ten thousand times, and at the same time full of anticipation for the unknown reward in three months.

Sometimes, it may be something that is directly presented on the table that can arouse the motivation of the person to pursue it.

But the unknown ahead can also inspire a sense of anticipation.

Moyu doesn't know what he's going to get in three months, but he doesn't rush about it.

Before accepting the reward, he will concentrate on making 10,000 swings of the knife every day.

"Master, I'll go and help you prepare food right now."

Looking at Mo You's tired face, Menqi put away the water glass and said quickly.

Mo You shook his head and said, "Don't be so troublesome. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the food around the campfire.

"Isn't there a ready-made one?"

"But Master, the meat is already cold......

"It doesn't matter, I don't want to waste every dish you make for me."

There was less than three hours left for Mo Yu to rest, and if he waited for Menqi to get his food back up, then he shouldn't have to sleep.

It's just that his casual words made a ripple in Menqi's heart.

“……”

Menqi's heart beat a little fast, and seeing that Mo You was so persistent, he could only obediently take the meat over, and then pour another glass of water.

Moyu was thirsty and hungry now, and he was buried in the food that Menqi had carefully prepared.

"Delicious ......"

Mo You slurred as he gobbled it up.

Menqi suddenly had a smile on his face, sat on the side, crossed his legs with his hands, his cheeks rested on his knees, and tilted his head slightly to look at Mo You who was eating meat.

Becoming a great food hunter isn't just about discovering the unknown.

Now this satisfaction ......

That's what I want, too.

Menqi thought quietly in his heart.

The bright moonlight fell on her body, exuding a hazy glow.

It's hard to imagine that this girl, who was so impatient and pungent in the original book, would have such a quiet side.

In the darkness in the distance.

There was a pair of Gu Jing Wubo's eyes that were also quietly looking at Mo You and Menqi.

After seeing this picture under the moonlight, a trace of remembrance appeared in the eyes that seemed to have gone through a long time.

Three hours later.

Midnight.

After Moyu finished his rest, he began to swing his knife.

「1/10000」

A new round of 10,000 swings of the knife began again.

When Menqi heard the movement, he opened his eyes and looked at Mo You, who had started to cultivate again, with some astonishment.

Then she looked down at the waterproof watch on her wrist, the hands resting at zero.

"Master has only rested for three hours......"

Menqi was very surprised and had the heart to ask, but seeing that Mo You had already entered the state, it was not easy to disturb.

"I can't slack off."

With an inexplicable heart, Menqi got up from the ground.

Moyu's hard work made her feel a sense of distance.

In order to avoid having to watch his master's back go away in the future, Menqi realized that he had to work harder than his master.

She got up quietly and began her daily practice.

Time passes, the sun rises and sets.

In the blink of an eye, it was night again.

The second round of knife swings, Mo You still took about twenty-one hours.

It's just that the fatigue that hasn't been eliminated last night has accumulated to this day, making Mo You feel even more tired now.

Seeing this, Menqi felt that no matter what kind of cultivation he practiced, he should be gradual and not so desperate at the beginning.

But instead of asking Mo You why she had to work so hard, she was like a competent wife and mother, preparing a hearty meal when Mo You was tired.

This was followed by the third, fourth, and fifth days......

Time flies like a white horse, and a month passes quickly.

After a month of 10,000 knife swings, Moyu has changed from "21 hours" at the beginning to "15 hours" now.

And the swinging of the knife is becoming more and more standard and stable.

There were a few days when there was not even any mistake, and it was a perfect 10,000 swings.

Once this state has stabilized, you can try to speed up each swing.

"Hoo ......"

After completing today's 10,000 swings, Mo You let out a long breath and looked at the waterfall in front of him.

Despite the exhaustion, there is an indescribable sense of tranquility.

After only a month of persistence, Mo You suddenly didn't care about the unknown reward after three months.

Instead, I had the idea of how long I could hold on.

If you go all the way to the finish line like this......

What will the scenery look like waiting for you?

Mo You's mind turned, staring silently at the white splash that was falling and scattering.

"Two months to go......"

"But I'm starting to worry that the day will come too soon."

Mo You laughed and shook his head slightly.

"Master, come on, today is river fresh mushroom soup."

Menqi's sound of opening the meal came at the right time.

Now she has roughly figured out the point when Mo Yu will end wielding the knife.

Therefore, it is always just right to serve hot and delicious food to Mo You, who has just finished his practice.

"Here we are."

Mo You walked over and naturally took a bowl of soup with a rich umami from Menqi's hand.

"Menqi, have you thought about it?"

Mo You took the soup and looked at Menqi in the light of the fire.

He's asking about the direction of ability development.

"Hmm."

Menqi nodded, she was always smiling in front of Mo You, and said slowly:

"I have seriously considered Master's suggestion, and if I can give food a new possibility without affecting the 'taste', then I am willing to work hard for it...... Not much confidence. ”

"Menqi."

Mo You smiled in his eyes and said softly: "You are the youngest star food hunter in the future, if it is you, it will definitely be no problem." ”

“……”

When Menqi heard this, he glanced to the side in a little panic.

Her face was flushed, only obscured by the reflection of the fire.

Pouring Qi into the food to give various buff states......

……

Sky Arena.

The name of the tumbler Sisoo resounded in this martial arts paradise.

From the beginning of the repeated defeats but never give up, to the strong strength shown as the landlord now.

Countless spectators at the Sky Arena witnessed the process.

Awesome, tumbler Siso!

This is a portrayal of the hearts of countless viewers who have become fans of Hisoka.

And so—

Whenever Hisoka appears in public, he can always hear the respectful shouts of "tumbler" from fans.

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.

But Sisoka felt that this "crown" was too heavy.

But in order to wait for "that day" to come, Hisoka is willing to endure all this.

"It's been a month......"

Sisoka stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the upper rooms, staring intently at the distant sky.

His figure looks quite a sense of "looking through the autumn water......
