Chen Yunsheng and Liu Xiaoshan left the fleet and headed east to the Beihai Shipping Alliance. The Beihai Shipping Alliance is headquartered in the most prosperous eastern district of Xufu Port. Its monopoly on the Beihai outlet and 80% of the shipping has made this place filled with a lot of wealth. Even
The bricks and stones paving the floor are inlaid with extremely fine gold threads. When the sun shines on it, it is shimmering with golden light, and it feels like being in a fairyland.
Beihai Ship Union is not difficult to find. Walk along the widest avenue in the East District, and you will see a group of buildings with no style at the end of the road. Chen Yunsheng stood in front of Beihai Ship Union. The only thing he felt was that it was huge. This area was more than ten miles in radius.
The area is shrouded in low buildings. It's chaotic and dense, as if they were randomly discarded wooden boxes.
Passing through a tall archway, Chen Yunsheng and Liu Xiaoshan entered the place where the Ship Alliance received foreign affairs. There were many people coming in and out, and there were no guards on both sides of the room, which was quite incompatible with the strong national style of Leng Yue Kingdom.
As soon as Chen Yunsheng entered the room, he was greeted by a middle-aged shopkeeper with a three-lock beard and a tall figure. His face had the coldness unique to the people of the Lengyue Kingdom. He spoke very politely, "Do you want to entrust the freight?
Shopping for some overseas stuff.”
"Besides these two, what other services does your Donghai Shipping Alliance provide?"
The shopkeeper smiled and said proudly: "As long as it is related to the North Sea, our shipping alliance will do anything."
"Even assassination?" Liu Xiaoshan interrupted abruptly.
There was a look of coldness on the shopkeeper's face, which flashed away and was still caught by Chen Yunsheng. The Beihai Shipping Alliance would definitely do such a thing as assassination, but what happened last night may not have caused them to do it.
The shopkeeper still had a professional smile, "If Miss encounters any trouble, you can hire monks from the Beihai Ship Alliance to be bodyguards. We are happy to do this for you." [
"I want to take a trip to the sea."
"Where to go?"
"黾州."
The smile on the shopkeeper's face stiffened, and after a while, he said calmly: "It's not a coincidence that the guest came."
The Shipping Alliance regularly sends flying boats to Yanzhou every year, but you missed the date. On the summer solstice, this year's ship has already set sail. I'm afraid you have to wait until next summer."
Chen Yunsheng showed regret on his face and continued: "Are there no remedies? I can pay more spiritual stones."
The shopkeeper shook his head and said: "It's not that we don't go to sea. Crossing the North Sea at this time is to die. In the far north, the sky is filled with flowing ice crystals. Even our trident cannot lurk in the clouds in the sky for too long.
time."
"What is there in the depths of the Sea of Annihilation?" Liu Xiaoshan asked.
There were several unkind glances cast around him, many of them from guests who had entrusted matters. The shopkeeper's face turned pale and he said hurriedly: "Guests, don't talk nonsense. You can't talk nonsense about the name of Poseidon. He is the one who protects us when we go to sea."
Safety."
Chen Yunsheng glanced at several shopkeepers in the room. They were all in the Qi training stage, and one of them was not a monk at all. It was impossible for a monk of this level to know the true nature of the things in the sea.
Seeing that he had gained nothing, Chen Yunsheng turned around and was about to leave. At this moment, an old man in purple robe walked out from the inner door, with a ribbon tied on his forehead, his eyes shining brightly, and he said loudly, "Stay."
Chen Yunsheng pointed to his nose and said, "Are you talking about me?"
The old man nodded and said: "That's you. You want to go to Zhizhou, right?"
"That's right."
"Let's talk further." The old man pointed to the inner hall.[
The two of them followed the old man into the inner room, closed the heavy wooden door, and the old man lowered his voice and said: "My surname is Bian, and I have the same given name as Xi. I am the big shopkeeper of the Beihai Shipping Alliance. What do you call me?"
"My name is Nan Tian, and this is my wife." Chen Yunsheng did not reveal his real name, but Liu Xiaoshan glanced at him with a happy smile on his face.
Bian Xi said: "It's not impossible for you two to want to go to Zhizhou, but it will take some hard work. The other two must also have real abilities."
"What is true ability?" Liu Xiaoshan asked. For a princess who rarely sets foot in the red world, this journey is really exciting.
Bian Xi smiled, his old face full of chrysanthemum folds, and said: "It's nothing. Our Beihai Ship Alliance recently discovered a sea beast in the North Sea, called the Reverse Fire Whale, and we want to gather some monks with advanced cultivation to hunt it together.
That’s why I took the liberty to ask you two if you are interested.”
"The Beihai Ship Alliance has a great cause, so why do they need to recruit people to hunt and kill even a sea beast?" Chen Yunsheng asked tentatively. He did not want to hear the other party's answer, but wanted to see the other party's expression.
Bian Xi replied very naturally: "Your Excellency must not be a monk from the Lengyue Kingdom. Although the Ship Alliance is a behemoth in the eyes of outsiders, the locals know that it is not really monolithic. The Ship Alliance is roughly divided into several forces.
The Snapdragon Blood Alliance, run by the Chang brothers, is the most powerful. And this invitation comes from the less powerful Sea Star Alliance. I am a member of the Sea Star Alliance. You must know the value of the Anti-Fire Whale, so I will
Let’s not talk about it. This kind of sea beast originally only appeared in the far north sea. Who knows, it came to the offshore waters by accident. This is a great opportunity for our Sea Star Alliance. If the Snapdragon Blood Alliance finds out, we will only have soup. If not
Tell them that we don't have the strength to swallow this sea beast all by ourselves, so the master made this decision."
Chen Yunsheng stared at Bian Xi's forehead that was polished by the secular world, and a question arose in his mind, why did the other party reveal such confidential information to him? If he had given high-level information to the Xiaolong Blood Alliance, wouldn't the Starfish Alliance be in vain?
He clicked on this question and asked another question of concern, "You just said that you must have strength to accept the invitation. I wonder how to evaluate the so-called strength?"
"This is easy to assess. Anyone with a late Golden Core or above can participate in the hunt. In order to limit the scale, we limit the number of people to ten people. Think about it, ten masters are enough to destroy the sea beast." Bian Xi's eyes showed a glimmer of light.
"I asked myself that my ability to hide my cultivation is pretty good. How could you tell that the two of us meet the requirements?" Chen Yunsheng asked.
Bian Xi smiled and said: "Mrs. Nan's cultivation level is too old to tell, but you must be a high-grade golden elixir. I have been hanging around in Xu Fugang. With this ability, I can't go wrong."
When Chen Yunsheng went out, he used the Wutu Qiu Shu technique, but he was unexpectedly seen clearly by the other party. He was very surprised. He said to the old man: "Let us think about this matter and give you an answer tomorrow?"
"I just ask you to keep it a secret. You can think about it for a few more days."
Chen Yunsheng said goodbye to the old man and Liu Xiaoshan and returned to the inn. As soon as Liu Xiaoshan entered the room, he asked: "Why didn't you agree to him just now? Is there any other way to get to Zhizhou?"
Chen Yunsheng shook his head and said: "There is no way. I always feel that there is something wrong with this person, and he doesn't seem to be worried about us revealing the news."
"Maybe he thinks we don't dare to do this."
"This doesn't make sense. Why didn't they ask local monks to do this? There is no reason to trust two monks from other places."
"In that case, do you plan to reject them?"
Chen Yunsheng was silent for a while and said: "I will agree to them and see what tricks they have up their sleeves. However, this matter cannot be easily agreed to in the past. Otherwise, it will only expose one's own trump card, which will be disadvantageous."
Liu Xiaoshan sighed softly and said: "This matter is a bit complicated. It is better for me to find other ways to go to sea."
Chen Yunsheng stared at Liu Xiaoshan's bright eyes and said with a smile: "Do you really think so?"
Liu Xiaoshan's original intention was that the more lively the better, but he was worried about the safety of his lover, so he said so, but the thoughtful Chen Yunsheng saw through it, and couldn't help but feel dizzy in his cheeks, which was so bright and beautiful.
"Of course, if something thrilling happens, I won't talk about it."
The two chatted for a few words, and Chen Yunsheng called the waiter and asked for some food. The two of them ate some casually in the house. Most of the food in Lengyue Kingdom was meat, while in Xu Fugang, most of the food was fish. Although there are many kinds
, but the method is too simple, many cooking steps are omitted, and the food is eaten raw. Practitioners originally have a light appetite, but this time the food with strong taste suddenly came, which made the two of them very unaccustomed.
After lunch, the two began to practice. As monks, they will never forget to practice no matter where they are. This is almost the same as sleeping and breathing. Three hours fleeting, the sun sets, the moon rises, and night falls.
Chen Yunsheng and Liu Xiaoshan walked into the streets. The night in Xu Fugang is usually more lively than during the day. Wherever merchants are developed, the night life is also extremely rich. Jixiang Pavilion is a famous local brothel, and Chen Yunsheng casually recruited people to inquire about it.
You get the information you want in one go.
Walking straight along Hongfu Street, they reached the second intersection and headed north. From a long distance away, the two of them could smell a refreshing aroma. It was neither ostentatious nor extraordinarily comfortable.
Liu Xiaoshan is naturally a master in this way. She can tell the quality of this place just by smelling it. She said to Chen Yunsheng: "Jixiang Pavilion is not simple, but the sandalwood that welcomes guests is worth a lot of money."
Chen Yunsheng kept in mind that most of the high-end brothels had powerful forces involved. In this case, the possibility of being attacked in the brothels became smaller. After all, no force wanted to be attacked in their own territory.
An accident occurred on the boat. At this point, he became more convinced that the person who released the flying needle that night was one of his own, and the purpose of his trip was fishing.
"Jixiang Pavilion covers an area of more than ten acres. There is a word "ge" in the name, which is actually the general name of a large number of pavilions. Here, every girl has her own boudoir, and guests will not interfere with each other. Of course, there is also a lobby.
There is a place where people gather for games, and there will be a world of mortals tonight, do you want to go and see it." Before Chen Yunsheng entered the Jixiang Pavilion, a young man wearing a blue-brown robe introduced it enthusiastically.
Without asking Chen Yunsheng to speak, Liu Xiaoshan casually threw out a piece of silver, which weighed ten taels. The servant happily took it and put it in his arms. With just a few words of introduction, he could get such a heavy reward, even if the Jixiang Pavilion's guest level
Even if you are very high, you may not be so generous.
