Chapter 163 Joining the Caravan

After introducing each other, Ning Cheng also knew that the old man's name was Tao Xiumao, and the young man's name was Tao Yuan. Watermark Advertisement Test Watermark Advertisement Test (Pingnan Literature Network) The father and son were very enthusiastic, not only sent Ning Cheng wound medicine, but also invited Ning Cheng to sit in the animal cart.

After Ning Cheng got into the car, the driver was replaced by young Tao Yuan.

On the beast cart, Ning Cheng still used his kung fu to heal his injuries. Tao's father and son are ordinary people, they have never practiced, and they have no awareness of the fluctuations of the surrounding spiritual energy.

Ning Cheng kept his eyes closed all the time, and Tao Xiumao also wisely didn't look for Ning Cheng to talk.

Two hours later, Ning Cheng felt that his injury had tended to ease, and at the same time slowly began to improve, so he settled down.

As the injury improved, Ning Cheng also opened his eyes and asked politely, "Uncle Tao, I heard that there are monk troops in Yi Xinghai, and those monk troops will recruit soldiers, is that true?"

Tao Xiumao nodded and replied, "That's right, the biggest recruiting station is the Xihai City you mentioned earlier. There are also monk troops stationed in Taiwan Sea Town, and our Mingguang Stone is actually for the monk army. We will use these Mingguang The stones are sold to merchants, and the merchants send these things to the monk army."

Ning Cheng understood that the most needed thing for the monk army to fight or operate in Yi Xinghai all year round and arrange various lighting formations is the bright light stone.

Tao Xiumao saw Ning Cheng stunned, hesitated and said, "If you don't have a good place to go, you can dig the bright stone with us. You can make a couple of hundred gold coins every time you go a few times a year. It's just a bit dangerous. Occasionally encounter road robbers along the way."

"Thank you, Uncle Tao. I still want to join the caravan. After arriving in Taiwan Sea Town, I will look for opportunities to join some caravans and go out to sea. In this case, I may earn more."

After hearing Ning Cheng's words, Tao Xiumao secretly sighed. And no persuasion. He knew the danger of working with a caravan, which was infinitely more dangerous than selling bright stones with him. Ning Cheng and him are neither relatives nor relatives, they are just passers-by, he can't persuade them.

The beast cart was not traveling very fast. But not slow. Tao's father and son took turns driving the car. On the way, I just ate some ordinary dry food.

Four days later, the animal cart entered a bustling town. There are people in all kinds of dresses outside the town. Most of these people have a dusty atmosphere. Most of them are adventurers who are dressed in tough clothes, and some ordinary monks. There are quite a few people who drive beast carts like Tao and his sons, and pull a cart of things.

A fishy smell of the sea breeze came, and Ning Cheng knew that it should be close to Yi Xinghai. Although his recovery was slow. But it also has the strength close to the condensed truth.

The cultivators he saw here were all low-level, so there was no need to worry.

"Brother Xiaocheng, this is already Taiwan Sea Town. My father and I are going to sell these bright stones. If you want to find a caravan, just go with us. There are many caravans in the chamber of commerce. These caravans Collect all kinds of things, and those caravans often have to recruit some people." Tao Yuan is dull. But after getting acquainted with Ning Cheng, he was very enthusiastic.

"Then thank you Brother Tao." Ning Cheng hurriedly thanked him, and at the same time took out twenty gold coins and handed them to Tao Xiumao.

It's not that he is unwilling to take out more gold coins, he is an ordinary person now. Even his cultivation has been hidden, and he has to find caravans to make a fortune. Once more gold coins are taken out, it will only make people suspicious.

Tao Xiumao insisted on not accepting Ning Cheng's gold coins, saying that his beast cart was only for pulling goods, and he took Ning Cheng to Taiwan Sea Town along the way. If you want to collect gold coins, it is really unkind.

Ning Cheng could only put away the gold coins, and followed Tao and his son along the long street of Taiwan Sea Town to the place where the caravan gathered.

The animal cart didn't go for long, and stopped at a place with a tall gate. Tao Xiumao took out a wooden sign and respectfully handed it to a guard at the gate. The guard looked at the wooden sign, returned the wooden sign to Tao Xiumao, and waved Tao Xiumao again.

Only then did Tao Xiumao dare to pull the beast cart into this tall gatehouse, and Ning Cheng also went in with the beast cart.

After entering the gatehouse, Tao Xiumao pointed to a row of tall and majestic buildings directly in front of him and said to Ning Cheng, "Brother Ning, that's where the major caravans in Taiwan Sea Town are stationed. If you want to find a caravan to join, you can go in and meet them." Try your luck. I will take my kid to deliver the Mingguang Stone."

Ning Cheng had already seen the big sign in front, with the words Thai Bay Chamber of Commerce written on it, he hurriedly thanked Tao and his son again, and then bid farewell to Tao and his son, and entered the Thai Bay Chamber of Commerce.

...

The Thai Bay Chamber of Commerce is not one, but the collective name of the entire Thai Bay Sea Town Chamber of Commerce. After entering here, Ning Cheng even had the feeling that he had entered a certain business hall on the earth of later generations.

There are various caravan names here, and every place where the caravan is stationed has a sign standing upright. In front of some caravans, there are even some introductions and notices for recruiting personnel.

Ning Cheng looked all the way, and found that none of the caravans here were going to Huazhou, and almost all of them were going to a place called Pubu Island.

Ning Cheng stopped a man who was also reading the notice, and asked politely, "Friend, I want to join a relatively large caravan, but why doesn't the caravan here even go to Huazhou?"

"You want to go to Huazhou?" The man stared at Ning Cheng in shock and asked.

Ning Cheng quickly said, "No, I just want to join a relatively large caravan. I don't know which caravan is big. I heard that some large caravans in Yi Xinghai can even cross continents. I think they can cross continents." It must be a large caravan."

After hearing Ning Cheng's explanation, the man laughed and said, "The caravans from Taiwan Sea Town are all going to Pubu Island, only the caravans from Pubu Island and Xihai City can go to Huazhou. You should have just arrived Come to Taiwan Sea Town?"

"Yes, I just came here. I have some strength. I originally wanted to go to Xihai City to join the monk army. I didn't expect Xihai City to be too far away, so I had to come to Taiwanhai Town." Ning Cheng quickly replied. road.

"You are a monk?" The man immediately showed respect when he heard that Ning Cheng was a monk.

Ning Cheng immediately said, "I can't be considered a monk, my cultivation base is very low, and I only gather Qi."

I heard that Ning Cheng is just a Qi Gathering cultivator, and he speaks so kindly, it is estimated that he is only at the first or second level of Qi Gathering. The man breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "Early Qi-gathering monks can also join the monk army. In fact, apart from Xihai City, Pubu Island also needs to recruit monks. Many Qi-gathering monks are Go to Pubu Island by joining the caravan, and then join the monk army."

"That would be great. I'll go to Pubu Island to try my luck first. If it really doesn't work, I'll simply work in the caravan." Ning Cheng said with a joyful expression.

He was very disappointed in his heart, if there was a caravan going directly to Huazhou, that would be the best for him.

After thanking this man, Ning Cheng casually found a caravan named Fei Hai and walked in. He saw from the announcement outside the Feihai Caravan that the caravan would leave Taiwan Sea Town tomorrow and head to Pubu Island.

Since none of the caravans here can go directly to Huazhou, it doesn't matter which one he chooses.

The hall of the Feihai Caravan here is not very big, and there is only one woman sitting in it. This woman looked to be in her twenties, with a strong aura of seafood on her body, one could tell that she was someone who had been walking in the sea all year round.

She was sitting on a wooden chair and seemed to be in a daze. After Ning Cheng came in, she didn't know if she didn't notice it, or she was aware of it. She didn't care at all, and she was still thinking about her own affairs.

This is a woman with good facial features and not ugly. What surprised Ning Cheng was that she turned out to be at the ninth level of Ningzhen.

Originally, Ning Cheng thought that these caravans were just walking by ordinary people. Unexpectedly, when he walked into the first caravan, he saw a cultivator on the ninth floor.

"Excuse me..." Ning Cheng had just said two words, and the woman on the ninth floor turned around and asked in a cold voice, "What's your business?"

"I heard that the Flying Sea Caravan is short of manpower, I'm here to apply..."

This time Ning Cheng still didn't finish speaking, and was interrupted again. But the one who interrupted Ning Cheng this time was not the woman on the ninth floor of condensed essence, but a middle-aged man. The middle-aged man rushed in, bowed to the woman and said, "Feng Zhuang, the boat has arrived."

Hearing that the boat had arrived, the woman stood up and said, "Since the boat has arrived, let's go tonight."

"Yes, yes..." The middle-aged man said yes, but his face was already a bit embarrassed.

The woman surnamed Zhuang said softly, "I know you still have to recruit people, and now it's too late. There is a crew member who is here to apply, so take him with you. For the rest, if there are losses caused by insufficient manpower, I, Zhuang Ya, will be alone. to bear."

"Don't dare, dare not..." After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he quickly bent down to let the woman named Zhuang Ya go out first.

After the woman walked away, the middle-aged man wiped the sweat from his forehead, began to observe Ning Cheng, and asked after a while, "Are you going to join the Flying Sea Caravan? What's your name?"

"My name is Ning Xiaocheng. I heard that Feihai Fleet is going to recruit crew members, so I hurried over here." Ning Cheng replied immediately.

The middle-aged man nodded and asked, "How is your strength?"

Ning Cheng quickly made a muscle movement, "I am definitely a strong man. In our village, many girls like my strength."

The middle-aged man was laughed at by Ning Cheng's words, "Okay, it's you. My name is Xin You, and you will call me Deacon Xin from now on. Temporary crew members are paid one thousand gold coins each time they go to sea in the Flying Sea Caravan. 10% of the remuneration will be paid first, another 30% will be paid at Pubu Island, and the rest will be settled at Taiwan Sea Town.”

"It's absolutely possible." Ning Cheng replied without hesitation, he never expected to find the caravan to Pubu Island so easily. As for him not coming back and not being able to receive all the one thousand gold coins, it was completely ignored by Ning Cheng.

(Second more to come!)
