Chapter 415 Ship bound for Purple Pearl Island
"Boss, I want all the pearls you have!" Yu Qingqian took out a bag of gold soul coins and handed it to a vendor selling pearls nearby.
The huge clam shells are filled with pearls of different sizes and colors, which are very eye-catching.
Seeing Yu Qingqian's generosity, the vendor smiled happily: "Okay, customer, please wait a moment."
Oscar saw Yu Qingqian buying so many pearls and asked, "Sister Qian, why are you buying so many pearls?"
Yu Qingqian put the pearl into the soul guide: "Buy it as a gift."
"Give it as a gift?" Oscar thought, if he bought so many, there must be many people to give it to, so there should be one for him, right?
Yu Qingqian saw Oscar's little thought: "Don't worry, you'll get your share. It will be nice to hang it in your room as a decoration."
To reach Poseidon Island, sea voyage is essential.
And whether she was in her previous life or this life, she was an out-and-out landlubber.
If you are not familiar with water, your effectiveness in fighting at sea will be greatly reduced. And she didn't know much about either sea soul beasts or sea soul masters.
The two of them walked around Hanhai City, asked an old man on the street corner for directions, and headed towards the port.
The old man has lived in Hanhai City for many years and knows the situation here quite well. Yu Qingqian asked him about many things, and also asked about the distribution of soul beasts in the sea.
The old man suggested that the two go directly to the captains who frequently sailed at the port. They would have a map of the distribution of spirit beasts in the sea.
Those captains have rich sailing experience, encounter many situations, and have strong ability to deal with them. The most important thing is that with the map in their minds, they can easily avoid those high-level soul beasts in the sea and reduce the risk of going to sea.
"Sister Qian, we are going to Poseidon Island just like this, don't we need to make any preparations?" Oscar was a little worried as they had never been out to sea before.
"We follow the team going out to sea, so we have great protection. If we encounter danger, we fight, and if we can't fight, we run away. With our cultivation level, we can still escape."
There are many wooden piles standing on the plank bridge extending out of the port. At the end of the extending plank bridge are ships of different sizes.
There are many kinds of boats, ranging from ordinary fishing boats to large sailing fleets. These are a major support for Hanhai City's economy.
On the wooden plank bridge, there were gathered people in twos and threes dressed simply and conveniently. Some of them were preparing to go out to sea to inquire, and some were people with sailing experience.
"Let's go over and ask if we can get on board someone else's fleet that's out at sea."
Yu Qingqian and Oscar moved closer to the fleet that was being refitted ahead, trying hard to hear the content of their conversation.
"What for?!"
A sharp shout startled the two of them.
Yu Qingqian turned around, and a young man wearing a round hat with a feather on his head and short sleeves and shorts came over.
She raised a professional smile and nodded politely, "Excuse me, are you planning to go out to sea?"
The young man looked at the two men's obviously gorgeous attire and his attitude became much better: "Of course, this voyage is our captain's 30th voyage, and it is of great significance."
"Can you tell me your destination this time?"
The young man frowned and said, "Don't you know there are some things you can't ask about?"
Seeing that this person was avoiding the topic, Yu Qingqian was not anxious, but patiently explained: "It's like this, the two of us are planning to find a fleet to go out to sea for fun, and we want to find a reliable fleet. Seeing that you have a lot of people and complete equipment, we want to ask if we can go together."
The young man looked at Yu Qingqian and Oscar, and raised his eyebrows: "Wait, I will go and ask our captain for you."
The young man walked directly around the two people and got on the boat from the gangway.
Soon, a serious-looking middle-aged man came down. His attire is more formal, his eyes are shrewd, and he takes every step steadily.
At least it seemed like this man was experienced.
Maybe it’s because I go to sea all year round. His skin is yellowish, and the slight wrinkles on his face do not make him look older, but add a bit of calmness over time.
"Hello. I heard from Xiaonian that you want to go out to sea with our fleet, right?" His voice was a little hoarse and he spoke slowly.
Yu Qingqian looked at him and said sincerely, "Yes, I wonder if the captain agrees?"
The captain noticed how the two were dressed and it was obvious that they had never been to sea before. Although their clothes were not overly fancy, they were made of top quality materials. He believed them 80% and smiled, "Of course you two can. I guess you two are from the mainland, right?"
Oscar and Yu Qingqian nodded.
"Then there will be no problem for you to follow our fleet. Our destination this time is Purple Pearl Island. It is a very beautiful island and very suitable for sightseeing." The captain introduced enthusiastically. His smile seemed simple and honest, but there was a trace of calculation hidden underneath.
Purple Pearl Island?
Yu Qingqian's heart skipped a beat, and she looked at the captain with increasingly complicated eyes.
The smile on her lips faded for a moment, then quickly returned to normal. If Oscar hadn't been paying attention to Yu Qingqian, he wouldn't have noticed.
Oscar feels bad. Is there something wrong with this fleet?
"Really? That's great! My brother and I were just worried about not having a suitable place to play. Thank you so much, Captain!" Yu Qingqian looked excited and slapped Oscar on the shoulder.
The captain was delighted when he heard this, "But you two, this tour is different from going out to sea to hunt soul beasts. We will ensure your safety throughout the trip, so the fee..." He didn't finish his words, but observed the reactions of Yu Qingqian and Oscar.
Yu Qingqian raised an eyebrow and waved her hand nonchalantly, "Don't worry, Captain. We can afford the expenses."
"That's good! Twenty gold soul coins per person."
twenty? Yu Qingqian suspected that they were involved in blackmail.
No, no doubt about it. What kind of place is Purple Pearl Island? It's an island where pirates gather. It's not an exaggeration to call it the pirate's lair!
Doudou was trapped on Purple Pearl Island as a slave for nearly a year. It was miserable, it was simply free labor.
When Oscar heard this, he was shocked. This is more expensive than Shrek's registration fee? What a profiteer, absolutely a profiteer!
Just as he was about to argue out loud with the captain, Yu Qingqian grabbed him and shook his head.
"Captain, although the fee is a bit expensive, I believe you will not cheat customers, right?" Yu Qingqian narrowed her eyes and looked at him with a smile.
The captain actually felt a hint of threat from the little girl in front of him. He suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and replied, "Of course!"
"That's good!" Yu Qingqian took out forty gold soul coins and handed them to the captain. The captain signaled the man named Xiaonian to put them away.
"The two of you should come aboard with us. We will set sail soon." After saying this, the captain turned around and took the lead to step onto the gangway. Turning his back, the captain wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The captain muttered in a low voice: "Why do I feel a little scared of two little kids? Is it an illusion?"
Naturally, this person's words could not escape the ears of Yu Qingqian and Oscar. The two looked at each other and smiled meaningfully.
After getting on the boat, Yu Qingqian and Oscar leaned on the railing of the deck, looking at the endless sea.
"Xiao Ao." Yu Qingqian said softly.
"Huh?" Oscar looked askance, tilting his head.
"There's something I forgot to tell you before."
"what?"
"Xiao Sanzi and his friends also went to Poseidon Island, but they were one step ahead of us. But when sailing on the sea, we are afraid of unexpected situations. It is hard to say who will reach Poseidon Island first."
Oscar was stunned and waved his hand: "It's okay, I believe that with their strength, nothing will happen. If we get there first, it means we are more powerful!"
He looked serious and gave himself a thumbs up.
"That's right. If we get there first, we might be able to give them a big surprise."
