Chapter 377 Brewing

The light of the knife so close at hand made Dazna's hair stand on end in an instant, his body flashed to the side in a strange way, and he rolled out in embarrassment.

The blade swept across the top of his head, cutting off a few hairs.

The man who was going to kill Dazna, the 'thief' who broke into the treasure house, was also surprised.

He didn't expect this old man over fifty years old to be so agile.

Ordinary people can't escape his slash.

"However, luck ends here! Go to hell, **** thief!"

The man raised the samurai sword in his hand again, stepped forward quickly, and arrived in front of Dazna in an instant, intending to split Dazna in half without mercy.

Dazna was so frightened that his ghosts froze, his mind went blank, and his whole body was subconsciously dodging in embarrassment.

Pfft!

The blade was cut across the body, the clothes were cut, and there was still a layer of flesh and blood, which had already seen the bones.

"ah!"

Rao Dazna couldn't help crying out in pain.

His arm was cut open.

If the position of the blade was more accurate, his entire arm might be chopped off.

Taking this opportunity, Dazna also saw the man who attacked him.

Dressed like a dark warrior.

Holding a standard samurai sword in his hand, there is also a standard samurai sword with a very short rib not out of its sheath at his waist.

I think that to deal with an opponent of this level, there is no need to pull out a second knife at all.

Samurai!

Dazner immediately recognized the person's position.

Not only that, there is also a very conspicuous emblem on his clothes.

The family crest of the great masters of the Land of Waves.

is a samurai retainer belonging to a famous family, which is very different from the general ronin samurai.

They are directly under the daimyo's command, and each of them is an experienced soldier, an elite who has been on the battlefield and killed countless people.

Dazna was panting, the warrior stepped forward again and kicked Dazna in the chest.

Dazna felt as if struck by lightning, his body trembled, and a mouthful of blood spewed out from his mouth.

The sound of ribs being kicked and broken can also be clearly heard.

The body hit the wall and rolled down.

The samurai stepped on Dazna's chest, preventing him from getting up.

The expression on the warrior's face was not ferocious, as if he was just dealing with an inconspicuous gutter mouse.

"I recognize you. Your name is Dazna, right? It seems that you have discovered the secret here. After you are executed, even your family members should be cleaned up. You can only blame your bad luck."

The samurai looked stern, and his tone was firm and cruel.

Gripping the hilt of the samurai sword tightly with both hands, Dazna swung it down with great despair.

The sound of piercing the air moved the samurai's ears.

A stone flew towards his temple.

The samurai instantly slashed to the side and back, swung the blade down, and the stone split in half and fell down.

A figure charged over and bumped into the samurai with his arms full.

The samurai was a little caught off guard, his body rolled over, and the samurai sword fell aside.

"Damn, you bastard!"

Seeing an uninvited guest come here, the samurai showed uncontrollable anger on his face.

"Kay... Kesha?"

Seeing the person who rescued him, Dazna's eyes were slightly dazed. It was Kaisha from the fishing team.

A young man with a bright future.

"I came here following Mr. Dazner's trail... But it seems that there seems to be some secret hidden here. Why did the samurai of the famous family appear here?"

After Kaisha rescued Dazna, he didn't make any next move, but was a little puzzled by the appearance of the famous warrior here.

His eyes couldn't help but glance at the door not far away, and Kaisha's eyes flickered.

The samurai seemed to be aware of Kaisha's intentions, and he took a sip without explaining, but his eyes were fierce and murderous.

He pulled out the ribbed short blade at his waist, without intending to explain anything to Kaisha, he swung the knife and slashed again, ready to kill the two of them.

"Wait, I think there is some misunderstanding!"

Kaisha wanted to stop the samurai's killing intent, but the samurai, who was completely enraged, only thought about how to quickly kill the witnesses who appeared here.

If the secrets here are exposed, not only him, but even his family may be questioned by the Namiya daimyo.

The secrets here must never be exposed, especially to the people of your own country.

Otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.

"There is nothing to misunderstand, all go to hell!"

The samurai struck hard, causing Kaisha to dodge in a panic.

Although Kaisha's physique can be considered a strong type, it is still quite different from the samurai who exercise regularly and even kill people.

The two sides are not at the same level in terms of fighting skills.

Kesa rolled on the ground, picked up the samurai sword that had fallen from the samurai's hand, and blocked it.

The short blade came into contact with the samurai sword, and the power concentrated at one point and exploded. Kaisha's face was pale, and his body felt very heavy.

Kesa took a few steps back, his steps became disordered, and his breathing became short of breath.

On the contrary, the samurai, although his eyes were full of anger, his breath and footsteps were very steady, and his sword skills were as fast as lightning, and his moves aimed at Kaisha's weak point.

Feeling the samurai's incomparably strong killing intent, Kaisha was terrified. He knew that if the samurai was not dealt with, both himself and Dazna might die here.

Moreover, the secret here also made him curious.

A famous warrior will never guard here for no reason.

There are signs of people living here, which proves that the samurai did not live here for a day or two, but for a long time.

"Cough!"

Although there is an idea of wanting to kill the samurai, the difference in hard power between the two sides is too large.

Not to mention strength and speed, even fighting skills are clear at a glance, and the gap is obvious.

After all, Kaisha is just a fisherman. He may be more powerful than ordinary people, but compared to the warrior in front of him, he is not enough.

Within a short while, Kaisha's body was cut with several **** mouths by the short blade, and his clothes were stained red with blood.

If it wasn't for the fact that the katana in his hand also has the ability to threaten the opponent, it is estimated that he might have fallen at the very beginning.

Ding!

Shocked the samurai sword that Kaisha swung over. The samurai saw that Kaisha's life gate was wide open, and it was impossible to stop his continuous attack, and his face showed joy.

It's now!

Like a strike of lightning, the short blade stabbed fiercely at Kaisha's chest, intending to kill him with one blow.

Oops! Kaisha's whole body trembled, as if he knew that he couldn't block the blow. The oppressive feeling of death made his eyes show a little fear, and there was a madness like struggling from the depths of his eyes.

Just when the samurai's short blade was about to stab Kaisha's chest, a bright red light shone brightly in the darkness in the distance. The samurai's eyes met the red light for an instant, and his body stiffened irresistibly for an instant, as if he had seen something extremely miraculous, and his face showed a very strange expression.

Pfft!

It wasn't until the cold blade pierced his body that he woke up like a dream, with a sharp pain in his chest.

Looking down at the samurai sword piercing through his body, Kaisha's panting voice came to his ears, and his words were full of unwillingness:

"Damn it, I would..."

Before he could say any more words, his body fell straight back and his breathing stopped.

"Hoo...hoo..."

Looking at the samurai who fell to the ground and died, Kaisha and Dazna both heaved a sigh of relief after being reborn after the catastrophe.

At the end, the samurai stopped his movements very subtly, and the expression on his face became very strange. His eyes were not fixed on Kaisha, but a certain place in the distance, which made Kaisha very puzzled.

Is there anyone else here? Kaisha inspected the surrounding area, and saw no one hiding on the bare rock wall.

"Mr. Dazner, are you all right?"

Kesa dropped the katana in his hand, walked over to help Datsuna up, and made him stand up.

"No problem... It's just that the body can't take it anymore. It really hurts when this guy kicks people."

Dazna clutched his chest. Several ribs were broken there. After returning, he would probably spend a lot of medical expenses.

With Kesha's support, Dazna barely stood up.

"Thank you this time, Kesha. If it weren't for you, I might have lost my life."

"It's okay, this is what I should do."

"Speaking of which, where exactly is this place?"

Dazner looked around, confused.

"This is an isolated island not far from our fishing location. The entrance is at the bottom of the island, but don't worry, I remember the way I came here. Let's take a break before we leave here."

Seeing that Dazna was out of breath, Keisha also knew that it was inconvenient for Dazna to move his body now.

"good."

Dazner had no objection.

Kesa nodded, and then he looked at the door deep in the cave. It was made of a kind of hard black wood, and it was difficult to forcibly break it with tools.

So, Kesha went to the warrior's body and groped on his body.

"What are you looking for?"

"Look for the key. If this samurai is the gatekeeper here, there should be something like a key. I am more concerned about what is hidden behind the door."

Kesha said without hiding anything.

"I don't think it's better not to know about this kind of thing. He is a samurai of a famous family."

Dazner said with lingering fear.

"I have come here, and even encountered a death crisis. I always know the reason why the samurai killed us. Moreover, this place has something to do with the daimyo... To be honest, I have always been confused by the policy of the daimyo. Whether it is the suppression of pirates in the past, or the industry of the ghost country this time, I feel that there are many problems. If there is a financial problem, then reaching a cooperation with the economically developed ghost country is undoubtedly a great opportunity to develop the country's economy. "

Kesha said so.

Dazna nodded, he was also puzzled by the recent actions of the Daming Mansion.

However, in order not to cause trouble, Dazna seldom thinks about these things.

Only when the worker-minor cooperative was shut down and it was about their own interests, did they go to protest a little bit, but they were severely beaten by the soldiers of the Daming Prefecture and were driven back.

Finding a copper key from the samurai, Kesha stood up and walked towards the door.

Dazner also walked over, he was also curious about what was behind the door.

"Okay, now I'm going to open it."

Kesa put the key into the lockhole, turned it, and with a click, the iron lock opened.

Kesa took off the iron lock and pushed the door open.

The moment the door was pushed open, he and Dazna stood at the door, and saw the contents of the room at a glance. It was a dozen huge sealed boxes, all of which were pasted with 'Do Not Open' notes.

"This is"

Dazner frowned.

"You will know what it is when you open it."

Kesa came over, took a shovel from the side, and forcefully pried off the top board of the box.

The moment the box was opened, the dazzling golden light caught the eyes of Kaisha and Dazna, and they stood there in a daze, their brains went blank, and their heartbeats suddenly accelerated.

It's no wonder they were stunned on the spot. Both of them are very responsible people, and the sum of money they have seen in their lifetime is not much. Although the price of these gorgeous jewels is unknown, the money they sell for is definitely an astronomical figure that will tempt anyone.

"these are"

Dazner was speechless in a daze.

In fact, he couldn't find a suitable sentence to describe his current mood.

"Damn, we've all been lied to by the daimyo!"

Kaisha seemed to understand something, his face suddenly showed anger, and his fists were clenched.

Tricked by a daimyo?

Dazner was chewing on the meaning of this sentence, and suddenly his body trembled, as if many things he didn't understand were connected together.

The samurai of the famous family acted as the gatekeeper here.

And lived for quite a long time, which proves that the accumulation of wealth here is not a day or two, but a very early time, and began to be stored here.

However, in order to appease the surrounding pirates, the money of the daimyo and nobles should have been spent already.

If that samurai is from the pirate side, then there is no reason to wear clothes with the family crest of a famous family.

If it is to deceive people, it is not necessary. If it is not by chance, he and Kaisha will not come to this kind of place.

Dazna felt shuddering, he might have smashed some conspiracy, and even touched the bottom line of the great masters in the Kingdom of Waves.

"Kaisha, let's hurry up and act as if we haven't been here before!"

Dazna's face was pale, and his first thought was to run away.

"It's useless, Mr. Dazna, if there is a connection between this place and the Daming Mansion, it will definitely be in regular contact. If the things here are exposed, we will be found out sooner or later."

Because the fishing team they belong to is the closest to here, and with the action power of Daming Mansion, they will be found out soon.

Dazner's body trembled again.

"Then what should we do? If the daimyo finds out, we..."

Kaisha thought for a while and said, "There are two ways."

"Which two ways?"

"Everyone in the fishing team and their families should leave the Kingdom of Waves as soon as possible, as long as they reach a country that the daimyo of the Kingdom of Waves can't touch."

Dazner thought about it, this is indeed a solution.

However, as a person who has lived in the country of Bo for decades, Dazna was very reluctant to leave so suddenly.

"What about the second method?"

"I will take the lead and disperse the wealth here. A lot of it belongs to the people of the country of Na. Gather the power of more people and put pressure on the daimyo to make this matter go away. But after that, I, who is in charge of this matter, need to escape from the country of Na. Because the daimyo of the country of Na will retaliate against me."

"Kesa!"

Dazna looked anxious.

This is obviously a way of sacrificing oneself.

"Actually, I prefer the second option. The country of Wave is too poor. With this windfall, life should be better."

Actually, Kaisha is pessimistic about this.

But it's a good thing to change a little bit.

"Also, Mr. Dazna, don't forget that I am not from the Kingdom of Waves. Leaving the Kingdom of Waves is not a bad thing for me. Anyway, I live all over the world and I am used to it. Besides, I have so much money on my own, and I can't spend it all. It's better to do something good before leaving this country."

Kesa smiled calmly.

Dazna fell silent, he didn't know whether he should stop Kesha from doing this.

It is true that if this approach is successful, more people will benefit. In the face of so many public opinions, the daimyo will know it when the time comes, and they will not dare to criticize it too much. After all, it is the daimyo's fault.

However, Kaisha, who is the 'chief evil', will definitely make the daimyo furious, wishing to cut Kaisha into pieces.

This kind of selfish idea of sacrificing others and fulfilling oneself made Dazna feel very guilty. Because in his heart, he also acquiesced to Kaisha's actions.

"Don't be discouraged, maybe my fate with this country is over. Before that, I hope that Mr. Dazner can help gather workers. With that group of workers, the news here can be quickly spread throughout the country of Na. At that time, the daimyo of the country of Na will have to admit this fact if they want to stop it."

Kesha patted Dazna on the shoulder to show comfort.

Dazner nodded heavily, and said seriously: "I understand, I will help with this matter."

After Dazna and Kesha left, two people slowly came out from the shadow of the cave.

It is Kazuki and Cardo.

"The secret here has finally been revealed, but I don't know what reaction the Daimyo of the Land of Waves will make next."

Kado caressed his chin, thinking slightly.

The secret here was discovered years ago by the kingdom of ghosts.

The funds spent by the Kingdom of Waves to appease the pirates are nothing more than a trick of left-handed and right-handed.

Although the Merchants Alliance on the isolated island was destroyed, the Namiya Daimyo did not take out the money here, but kept it hidden.

Because once the money here is taken away, the country of Wave will pay off the debt to the country of ghosts.

Let the aristocracy of the Kingdom of Waves live a life of poverty.

This is something that the entire noble class of the Kingdom of Waves cannot allow.

However, the aristocratic class of the Kingdom of Waves did not dare to use the wealth here, but the Kingdom of Ghosts found an opportunity.

The things here will be used on a sharp edge and cannot be wasted.

Used properly, the daimyo of the land of waves can quickly lose popular support in the land of waves. At that time, the kingdom of ghosts will operate from it, and things will become particularly simple.

"Anyway, I won't end this farce without doing anything. After all, the approach is still too immature."

Ichihime said slowly.

"Missy thinks that Kesha will fail?"

"Isn't this obvious at a glance? The 'servant' who used to be honest and responsible suddenly became self-conscious, and even wanted to encroach on the interests of the 'master'. If it were any 'master', he would feel angry from the bottom of his heart."

Ichihime expected such an ending.

Kado thought about it, although he really wanted to defend Kaisha, but after sorting out the information obtained by the ghost country, the result may be similar to Kazuki's prediction.

"Well, let's not correct it... Maybe he will die."

"Don't worry, I will make a move at the critical moment. In other words, if you can't even pass this hurdle, it can only be said that the entrustment is not human, and you need to find better talents."

Ichihime's words were extremely cold.

This is also something that can't be helped. Some things cannot be truly understood just by listening to others.

Only when you experience it yourself, will you awaken to a higher level of awareness.

Ichiji has no way to explain this kind of thing to Kaisha, and it may even arouse the suspicion of the other party, leading to another unexpected change in the plan.

Now is not the time to openly negotiate with Kesha.

"Okay, let's leave too, there is no need to stay here anymore. Next, wait for the seeds to germinate on their own, blossom and bear fruit, we just wait quietly."

"Yes, miss."

Cardo lowered his head, a sharp light flashed in his eyes behind the sunglasses.

The next day, in the afternoon.

"D-Daimyo-sama, something is wrong!"

The servant hurriedly ran into the room where Namanokuni Daimyo was, sweating profusely, as if he had encountered something extremely panicky, and his expression was extremely frightened.

"What's the matter? Don't you see I'm busy here?"

The Namanokuni daimyo saw that the valet barged in without even knocking on the door, which made him very dissatisfied.

He held a beautiful woman in a kimono with her collar half open in his arms, and there was fine sake in front of him.

However, this kind of elegance was destroyed by the servants who broke in suddenly, and Namonokuni Daimyo even had the idea of immediately replacing the valet.

"If it's still because of the distribution of food, you don't need to discuss it with me, and go to the officials in charge to deal with it. I drive away all the untouchables who are making trouble. I don't want to hear their noisy voices. It's really annoying! Can't you stop their mouths if you have something to eat?"

The Namanokuni daimyo became a little impatient.

He didn't take this kind of thing to heart either. I really don't know why this group of untouchables must make such a fuss.

He didn't want to be deprived of even his rest time.

"Not this one, but there are indeed a lot of people gathered outside, claiming to collect debts from you daimyo!"

The valet tremblingly said this sentence, as if draining all the strength in his body.

"Debt collection?"

The daimyo of the wave country was slightly taken aback, and the intimate movement of hugging the woman couldn't help but stop.

The woman is very understanding, knowing that there are some things she should not inquire about, so she stood up from the floor obediently and walked towards the inner room.

"Tell me clearly, what kind of debt do those untouchables demand from me?"

The daimyo of the land of waves had a fierce look in his eyes.

In this country, there are only things that others owe him, and there is never a time when he owes others.

If he doesn't tell the reason, he doesn't mind letting this group of untouchables know who is the real master of the Kingdom of Bo.

The servant replied hesitantly: "It seems to be something about hidden treasures. The leader is a fisherman named Kaisha. He seems to have discovered the secret there..."

Needless to say the rest, the Namiya Daimyo fully understood.

Treasure...Secret...Daimyo of the Land of Waves uttered a cry, and stood up from the floor, his face livid and frighteningly cold, with terrifying murderous intent brewing in his eyes.

The valet was overwhelmed by the fierce aura of Namanokuni Daimyo, and he didn't dare to take a breath.

"Take me there, I'll explain it myself."

When the valet raised his head, he found that Daimyo Namanokuni's complexion had returned to normal, his words had also returned to calmness, and there was even a slight kind smile at the corner of his mouth.

But in the eyes of the servants, the name of the Kingdom of Waves in this state is the most terrifying, like a devil who chooses people and devours them.

The valet knew that the troubled people would have a very miserable end in the future.

Really, isn't it good to live an honest life? You must find death. The valet couldn't help but complain too.

Because of this incident, the daimyo might take his anger out on him later and withdraw his position as valet. This made the servant very dissatisfied.
