Chapter 110 Merchant Ship
When Yu Xiaobai woke up this morning, he was not harassed by life-threatening noise and knocking on the door. While feeling comfortable physically and mentally, he also felt strange that a certain left-behind sister had nothing to do recently but kept running to him, and she almost didn't sleep in his room. Tired to die down?
But soon Yu Xiaobai knew that he was wrong, because when he got up, the sun was shining high, and there was no one in front of the two dilapidated houses, only scattered villagers fishing in the distance.Knocked on the door of Makoto's house, but found it was locked.
"Didn't sleep." Yu Xiaobai twisted the doorknob of the card owner. Although he could unscrew the old lock with a little force, he still didn't want to add more scars to his rusty body.
It happened that there was a villager dragging a fishing net by the sea, and Yu Xiaobai stopped him by the way, "Excuse me, do you know where Zhenyi is?"
Feng begged him to take care of his younger sister. Although the kid was fussy, he still had to bear with it. Anyway, his time to stay was coming to an end.Speaking of which, the Sacrifice Festival of the Moon Kingdom is tomorrow, and the letter that Feng entrusted someone to send back these days also said that the other party should be back today.After barely eating a meal from his hard-working brother, he is about to return to Konoha.
"Mai Yi." We are not familiar with everyone, but the person who was asked by Yu Xiaobai put down the tool in his hand, and the desire to describe suddenly appeared on his expression, "Hey, something happened to his brother, Zhen Yizao went to the city with Tian Jibo and the others gone."
Yu Xiaobai was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect such a development, "Something happened to Feng, what's the situation?"
The man smelled like fish, I don't know if he was told by others or he saw it with his own eyes, so he spoke vigorously.
There were a lot of narrations, but some of them might not be meaningful. After 5 minutes, Yu Xiaobai picked out the useless parts from the other party's words and understood the situation.
Every morning in the small fishing village, people still go to the city to sell something. Today, some old people in Xianyu Village heard in the market that pirates had robbed a local merchant ship.This is not unusual at all, but the local merchant ships will hire a lot of coolies at the wharf to carry them. Through the list posted in a conspicuous place, the villagers know that Feng is very unlucky to be included.
Xianyu Village is so small, and the information of each family is almost transparent. No one thought that Feng would not come back these days and be involved in such a disaster.Feeling helpless, all the villagers can do is to tell the news to Zhenyi who just got confused and even Yu Xiaobai didn't have time to harass him. Hearing the news, she may not even know what to do, so the little girl and the villagers rushed to the city again .
After thanking the villagers who informed him of the situation, Yu Xiaobai touched his face, "I was detained by pirates, and a few dozen people escaped from the merchant ship to report... No, what are you doing on the merchant ship by yourself?"
Shaking his head, because of the frugal character that poor people have, Feng has been working at the dock for the past three months, and there will be no money left. Isn't it just a meal, do you want to work hard...
For the past few days, Makoto has been talking about the festival like a bumpkin, and she can't just watch a little girl bear it now.Yu Xiaobai walked to the road leading to Haiwan Town outside the village. There was no one around. He dodged into the steep slope of the mountain forest outside the path, turned into a black shadow, and galloped as if the difficult terrain did not exist.
Sparing the way, Yu Xiaobai also rushed to Haiwan Town within 10 minutes. The censorship at the gate of the town was obviously stricter than before. The vagrant mob at sea robbed the merchant ship.
As far as Yu Xiaobai knows, although both ends of the Kingdom of the Moon are covered with sea water, there are not many incidents on the sea.
After entering the city, Yu Xiaobai remembered that he didn't know where Zhenyi had gone. He patted his head, thought for a while, and ran to the pier where he had met Feng before.Familiar peddlers hawk, and the smell is mixed, but there are more warriors and patrols in the town among the pedestrians.
The ships kept coming and going, and Yu Xiaobai saw notices posted on many pillars.
"The local letter-weaving merchant ship was hijacked by pirates about [-] miles away in the North Sea the night before yesterday. The number of pirates in the night is unknown, and a small number of people escaped. The following is the list of detained and missing..."
Chang Gufeng's name was at the end of the list, and Yu Xiaobai carefully read the notice and wrote down all the information about the pirates before leaving the pier.
Yu Xiaobai went to the mayor's mansion. The villagers of Zhenyi and Xianyu Village basically had no relationship to leave in this city. If there was something wrong with their relatives, they could only go to the official office to express their hope.
"Everyone, please go back. The mayor will not give up on those captured by the pirates. The daimyo's samurai team is already coming to us, and we will be able to set off tomorrow to destroy those pirates..."
From a distance, Yu Xiaobai heard the noise in front of the town government. Many people gathered there, probably the family members of the men who did not escape from the merchant ships, and a person in charge in front of the house was shouting.
"I'm going to save someone tomorrow. Is that person still alive? How did he do it?"
I heard that the team sent by the government will leave tomorrow at the earliest. You must know that the merchant ship was hijacked two days ago, and if you count the time spent by the warriors on the ship, the safety of the remaining survivors of the merchant ship cannot be guaranteed at all. Many people cried out in dissatisfaction.
"This is already the fastest speed! Please forgive me!" The voice of the shouter in front of the mansion has been hoarse for half a day, and he still has to face the excited family members.
"What about releasing the commission?" Someone in the crowd said, "Ask those ninjas who can jump over the roof to save people. Is the mayor reluctant to ask the ninjas for money?"
Issuing a commission to ask ninjas to help is the most expensive choice... How kind can the vicious sea mobs have when they catch those innocent people? It is normal for two days to starve to death. It is more economical and reasonable for daimyo's samurai to support...
Naturally, the person in charge would not say what was in his heart, wiped off his sweat, and continued to shout: "Issuing the commission also takes time, and the daimyo has already contacted the powerful ninjas in the Kingdom of Thunder in the north, and now I also hope that the warriors will the power of……"
The public was immediately dissatisfied. Although the usually majestic samurai could definitely defeat a group of pirates organized by the desperate people, but if there were ninjas, the problem would undoubtedly be solved faster. This is common sense.
However, it’s not that there are people who don’t understand. There have been accidents with merchant ships in the past, and very few of them can come back safely. This is not a harmonious world.Cursing was mixed with some crying. This incident was known to everyone in Bay Town, including the surrounding area. People who were not involved watched the pain of those who were involved. Many people are doomed not to come back.
In the crowd, Yu Xiaobai found Zhenyi, who was being led by an old villager. She looked at her useless situation helplessly under the sound.
There is one more.
