Pirate Merchant

"Ah, it's terrible. It's true that drunken words and mistakes are true in the future. Kuina's swordsmanship is too terrifying. Although it doesn't have the momentum of Sauron's opening and closing, the sword is deadly."

Mu Qian muttered as he rubbed his chest and abdomen, which had been injured internally by Kuina's No-Sword Style Profound Artifact Yuexi.

But after being beaten up by Kuina, he felt at ease.

Kuina has been saying that she is not as strong as a man in terms of physical strength and strength, but she hits people with the power of Bajiquan. If she doesn't show mercy, it's no wonder that the people who are beaten will die if their internal organs are shattered.

"Uncle smelly, are you alright?"

After Mu Qian escaped from the tavern, Ji Ya, who followed quietly, carried a small basket and asked Mu Qian with a painful expression.

"It's okay, the power point in the chest and abdomen is just a little weak after being hit, just rest for a night."

Mu Qian raised his hand and rubbed Jiya's little head who was walking beside him vigorously. He still likes this arrogant little girl who is as big as a kid.

"Don't rub my head! I won't grow tall!!!"

Ji Ya grabbed Mu Qian's hand and wanted to shake it away, but her proud strength was like child's play in front of Mu Qian.

"It's good if you don't grow tall, and you are so cute when you are small. Go back, there are no more pirates in Rogge Town."

Mu Qian let go and rubbed Jiya's little head, waved his hands and yawned, and walked towards the Lucky Ship moored at the port.

"Damn! That bastard uncle treats me like a child again!"

Ji Ya squeezed the handle of the small basket, pouted angrily and stamped her feet viciously.

"Damn. Why am I still a child"

Looking at the back of Mu Qian walking away slowly, Jiya, who was holding the handle of the small basket tightly with both hands, lowered her head and wept silently.

Kuina, who had calmed down and returned to normal, stood in front of the tavern door and looked at Jiya who was sobbing with her head down. She didn't step forward to comfort her, but stood silently guarding her from a distance.

early morning.

After Mu Qian woke up from the children playing on the deck, after washing up, Mu Qian strolled out of the cabin amidst the respectful greetings from the sailors who stopped working, and stood on the sunny deck looking at the bustling port , the boundless pride in his heart caused the surrounding temperature to rise suddenly, but it soon returned to normal.

In the low temperature, the cold sea breeze blew on Mu Qian's cheeks, cooling down his restless thoughts that were burning like raging flames just now, allowing him to look at everything in front of him as an absolutely rational bystander, looking for business opportunities in it.

"Mom, is that the king in the storybook who lives in the castle?"

On the pier, a little girl suddenly grabbed her mother who was advancing, raised her chubby little finger and pointed to Mu Qian who was standing on the deck with his hands on the fence, looking at the city with his eyes, and asked her mother in a childish voice. .

"It's not Lily, that's just a person who is a little different from ordinary people, an ordinary person who is destined to stand on a high place and look down on all living beings."

The young mother gently picked up her daughter, then smiled and left here at a faster pace.

"But, mother, I think that big brother is a king! If it's that big brother! I'd like him to rule me!"

The girl whose little arm was pressed down by her mother pouted and said to her mother with some displeasure.

"Pfft~ Where did you learn this, little girl? Don't you like princes?"

Young mother amused by her angry daughter.

"I like the prince! But I also like the king! Woohoo! Ah! That's right! Wouldn't it be great if I marry the prince and let the king be my father! Mmmm! The king will be my father!"

The girl happily hugged her mother's neck and laughed happily.

"But His Majesty the King is so young, he must have not given birth to a little prince yet."

Young mother laughing with her daughter teasing her by tickling her little nose.

"Then mother and His Majesty the King gave birth to a prince and His Highness is marrying Lily! It's okay! Lily can wait!!!"

The girl frowned and thought about it, and after a while, she happily cheered and said to her mother.

The young mother was dumbfounded by her daughter's extremely informative words. If she really kissed her daughter, she really had nothing to say about cheating her mother.

"hehe."

With her sleeves rolled up, Jiya put down the oranges and was carrying a large basket of oranges. She wiped the sweat from her forehead and looked at the mother and daughter who passed by her. She sneered and picked up the basket of oranges again. Walk towards the juice stand.

"I heard people in the town say you are a great swordsman, how about a match?"

On the crowded street, Mu Qian, who was negotiating with a merchant how much lime should cost per cart, was just about to go to the next fruit shop to negotiate the price of oranges when he was stopped by a young and down-and-out swordsman.

"Swordsmanship challenge? Yes, yes, but why does the lion fight with the rabbit?"

Mu Qian who stopped in his tracks asked the young stunned green swordsman with a embarrassed smile.

"You humiliated me?!"

The young and energetic swordsman drew out his sword angrily and pointed at Mu Qian, questioning Mu Qian angrily.

"Okay, okay, I understand, I'm sorry to make you feel humiliated, well~ let's teach you stupid young people a little lesson."

Mu Qian sighed and rubbed his hair, gave up explaining, and accepted the challenge of this swordsman who wanted to be famous and crazy.

"Draw out your sword! I will not kill those without swords!"

The young swordsman pointed his long sword at Mu Qian, and said one of the most handsome words in his heart.

"I lend you my sword."

And when Mu Qian shook his head and was about to say that he was playing hand-to-hand combat without swords, Da Siqi squeezed out from the crowd, raised his hand and threw the long sword in his hand to Mu Qian, and then proudly raised his hand to Mu Qian. Thumbs up for him to use as he pleases.

"Sigh, if it wasn't for the sake of building up the reputation of Yixin Dojo, I would never play this kind of housekeeping game."

Mu Qian squeezed the long sword with his left hand and placed it horizontally on the left side, muttering in a low voice in extreme displeasure.

"Very good! Evil Ghost Flow Profound Art! Evil Ghost Slash!"

After Mu Qian got ready, the stunned green swordsman roared and rushed towards Mu Qian with the long sword he bought from a second-hand market that he didn't know.

"Hey, I guess he was cheated by the third-rate gymnasium, and then he was a silly kid who hoped to go to sea."

Mu Qian, who was planning to use Juhe to quickly resolve the battle, gave up the slashing attack. The visual effect of disembowelling was still extremely disgusting, and he didn't want to see blood ruin his business in the early morning.

When the stupefied green swordsman rushed in front of him, Mu Qian sideways dodged the stunned green swordsman, and a sword scabbard slapped him hard on the back of the head, causing him to fall into a coma with his eyes turned white land.

"boring."

Throwing the long sword in his hand back to Da Siqi, who was watching the fun, Mu Qian, who felt as if he had eaten a fly, turned disgusted and walked towards the fruit shop that survived the pirate attack, and all the spectators spread out.

"Where did you learn your swordsmanship? Just now you actually wanted to use Iai Slash, right?!"

Da Siqi caught up with her eyes shining brightly, and quickly adjusted her unhappy mood. At this time, Mu Qian, who was smiling all over his face, asked him in a cheerful tone.

"In the Yixin Dojo in Shuangyue Village, because a certain senior sister and a certain senior brother didn't want to be the chief disciple, I am now the chief disciple of the Yixin Dojo. Do you want to learn it? I will give you a 20% discount on the tuition."

Mu Qian, who was planning to go to the fruit shop, stopped, and immediately entered the business mode, with a commercial smile on his face, and enthusiastically promoted Yixin Dojo to Da Siqi.

"Hey? But I can't leave Rogge Town where I am stationed. Can I learn swordsmanship from you?!"

Da Siqi, who felt weak in the previous pirate attack, had an extremely strong desire to become stronger, and asked Mu Qian anxiously and expectantly after finding a way to become stronger.

"Of course. Saka, who just joined the navy, is my junior. His swordsmanship is much better than mine. You only need to pay a tuition fee, and our two seniors will teach you everything!"

Mu Qian smiled and stretched out his hand to press Da Siqi's shoulder, inducing Da Siqi with a gentle and sincere tone.

Of course, Dashiqi’s tuition is optional. What he wants is that Dashiqi, a girl who is not low in talent, will help Saka’s status in the navy improve after he and Saka learn swordsmanship with him. It is also conducive to arranging the disciples of Yixin Dojo to serve as swordsmanship teachers in the navy in the future.
