Disciple, Don't Cause Trouble, Master Won't Leave the Mountain! Chapter 110: Buying a Boat

Chapter 110: Buying a Boat

An old man in shabby clothes was leaning against the door of the wooden house. The old man was smoking a pipe, and smoke filled the air around him.

“I think we have found someone who might be willing to take us to the Northern Region.”

Jiang Yun said to Qin Xiaoxi softly.

Qin Xiaoxi naturally knew who he was talking about. She shifted her gaze to the old man at the door of the wooden house.

The old man seemed to have noticed that Qin Xiaoxi was sizing him up. There was a hint of doubt in his deep eyes as he sized up the foreign woman. This made Qin Xiaoxi feel very uncomfortable, it was as if her entire body was being invaded.

“Wait for me here.” Jiang Yun stopped Qin Xiaoxi who was about to go forward with him and walked to the front of the old man.

“Can we go out to sea?” Jiang Yun looked calmly at the old man in front of him.

The old man’s eyes darted back and forth between the two of them.

“Two people?”

Jiang Yun nodded.

The old man flicked his head and continued to stare at Qin Xiaoxi, who was behind Jiang Yun, with an indecent smile on his face. His jet-black teeth were all exposed after he grinned, which made Qin Xiaoxi feel disgusted.

Jiang Yun moved slightly to the side.

“Cough, cough…”

Realizing that Jiang Yun was blocking his line of sight, he didn’t continue to stare at Qin Xiaoxi. He found a small wooden stool at the side, sat down, and fiddled with the pipe in his hand.

Qin Xiaoxi went forward as well. As soon as she did so, she smelled the nauseating smell of the pipe smoke. Qin Xiaoxi fanned the air in front of her nose with her hand, trying to make herself feel better.

“Where are you going?”

The old man stuffed some tobacco leaves into his pipe and took a slender bamboo stick, squeezing them into the pipe bit by bit.

“We’re going to the Northern Region.”

Hearing this, the old man’s hand that was fiddling with the pipe stopped.

He seemed to be thinking about something.

“No.”

This confused the two of them.

“I can pay you 100 gold coins.” Jiang Yun saw that the old man didn’t seem to be willing, so he made his own offer.

The old man seemed to have heard a funny joke, and he suddenly laughed strangely.

Hehehehehehe…

The old man raised his head and looked at Qin Xiaoxi who was behind Jiang Yun again.

“What’s wrong, little beauty… Let me give you a piece of advice. You’d better go back.” The old man looked at her with a strange smile. This made Qin Xiaoxi feel very uncomfortable. If she didn’t need his help to go out to sea, Qin Xiaoxi might have pulled out her sword and blinded the lecherous eyes of this wretched old man.

“There’s no need to go ash.o.r.e. Just send us there.”

The old man shook his head.

“It seems that you guys still don’t understand the situation. In the sea of the Northern Region, the weather is constantly changing. There are countless ferocious tsunamis, and there are even sea demons. I believe that you guys don’t want to be eaten, right?”

The old man’s gaze became extremely terrifying when he said this.

“I can pay you 50 more.”

Jiang Yun opened his mouth again.

Qin Xiaoxi’s face was speechless when she heard this.

No matter how rich she was, Jiang Yun wouldn’t offer an exorbitant price and go for 150 gold coins each round, right? But after careful thought, perhaps she really did have so much money in her pocket.

The old man looked at them and shook his head. Then, he put on the bamboo hat behind him.

“It seems that you people are really not afraid of death.”

The old man lit up his pipe again and took another puff. The white smoke filled the air between the three of them again, stimulating and choking their noses.

“I won’t send you there, but you can buy my boat and compa.s.s.” After putting on the bamboo hat, the old man slowly walked to the beach behind the wooden house.

Jiang Yun and Qin Xiaoxi quickly followed.

It was a good idea to buy a boat themselves. Although they didn’t have a guide, Qin Xiaoxi felt much more comfortable when she thought of the fact that she didn’t need to sail with this wretched old man.

The beach that the old man brought them to was filled with a thick fishy stench. A few old-looking wooden boats were quietly moored beside the small dock. They were all tightly locked by chains.

“Which one?”

“Here.” The old man pointed at a boat that looked smaller than the other boats.

The boat was very shabby. The bow of the boat was wrapped in a wet fishing net. Some of the wooden planks on the boat were already covered with mold. The entire boat seemed like it would fall apart at any moment.

“There are no other boats?” Jiang Yun was actually a little speechless.

The boat gave him the feeling that it would be smashed into pieces by the waves before they reached the Northern Region.

“No, just this one. 150 gold coins.” The old man looked at Jiang Yun and Qin Xiaoxi with a wicked smile.

Just this boat? 150 gold coins? ? ?

“This boat of yours, 150 gold coins. How can you say that?” Qin Xiaoxi finally couldn’t hold it in anymore and complained, “Why don’t you go rob instead?”

“That’s where you’re wrong. You can ask the others. I don’t think anyone here is willing to take you to that d.a.m.n place,” the old man said complacently as he took another puff of his pipe.

“But you’re not taking us there,” Qin Xiaoxi added resentfully. She was about to go up and argue with them.

“Let’s go somewhere else and take a look.” Jiang Yun stopped Qin Xiaoxi and pulled her towards the other places.

The old man was not anxious at all. He watched them leave with a strange smile as if he was sure that they would come back.

Jiang Yun and Qin Xiaoxi walked around and asked many of the boatmen. However, when they heard that the pair were going to the Northern Region, they shook their heads and even refused to sell their boats.

“It really ticks me off. Not only is this d.a.m.n old man obscene, he’s also a profiteer.” Qin Xiaoxi almost cut down the trees beside her with a strike of her sword. She complained angrily, “What should we do?”

“What else can we do? Buy the boat.” Jiang Yun spread his hands helplessly. It seemed that the only person who could help them to get to the Northern Region was that wretched old man. When Jiang Yun said this, he looked at Qin Xiaoxi with an unfathomable expression, “… but this will have to depend on you, second young miss of the Qin Ffamily.”

b.a.s.t.a.r.d… This b.a.s.t.a.r.d.

Qin Xiaoxi cursed Jiang Yun secretly. It seemed that he was using her like a purse? ? ? ? Now she would have to spend 150 gold coins to buy a broken boat. These 150 gold coins were enough for her to buy a whole cart of high-grade rouge and powder!
