The days at sea seemed to be good. The wind was warm and the sun was shining brightly. The guests on the merchant ship gathered on the deck and chatted merrily, while the sailors were all on high alert.
This was because in this era of pirates, a pirate ship might appear.
Qi Zhen stood by the merchant ship and looked into the distance. The weather was really good. The sky was deep blue, and occasionally a few white clouds floated across the sky. Looking at the boundless sea and feeling the gentle breeze of the sea breeze, it made people feel relaxed and happy.
However, Qi Zhen gulped from time to time, trying to get rid of the smell that had been attracting him, but the effect was not ideal.
It was like this. Not long after Qi Zhen boarded the merchant ship and left Frostmoon Village, he smelled a strange smell on the ship.
The smell wasn't smelly. On the contrary, it was very fragrant. It was a very magical fragrance, as if there was a magical power that evoked some desire in Qi Zhen's stomach. His throat was a little dry. Strange, what was this smell?
To be honest, it was not the first time Qi Zhen had smelled this fragrance. At first, Qi Zhen could still bear to ignore it, but gradually, he had the urge to go and take a look.
"Qi Zhen."
When Qi Zhen was about to check out what was so fragrant, the bearded captain of the merchant ship walked to Qi Zhen's side and asked curiously," Why are you here alone? Aren't you going to play with those children?”He pointed at the naughty children who were chasing and playing on the merchant ship.
Qi Zhen came back to his senses and could not help but smile bitterly when he heard the captain's words. It was fine for him to be treated as a child, but it was better for a 20-year-old adult to play with a group of naughty children.
He waved his hand and said,"No, I still like to be alone." Right, Uncle Angula, the merchant ship has been traveling for two days. How long will it take for us to reach Shields Town?”
The captain of this merchant ship was called Angula. He often brought the merchant ship to Frostmoon Village to buy food and sell some goods. He got to know Geng Shilang, the only dojo in Frostmoon Village. This time, Geng Shilang asked him to take care of Qi Zhen.
"Hmm…it shouldn't take long.”Angula rubbed his chin and pondered." But we have to go to Windmill Village later to buy some supplies for Shields Town.”
"Windmill Village? Windmill Village that was related to Lieutenant General Karp?”Qi Zhen was stunned. Wasn't that the place where Luffy grew up?
"Yes, I am. That's the hometown of Lieutenant General Karp, the hero of the navy, the pride of our East Ocean! Hahaha! You'll definitely like it there! Alright, I'll go get busy first!" Angula laughed and patted Qi Zhen on the shoulder before walking away.
Go to Windmill Village? If he was not wrong, the red-haired pirates should be in Windmill Village right now, right? So now that the merchant ship had arrived at Windmill Village, there was a high chance that they would encounter Shanks? Qi Zhen was very interested in meeting the red-haired Shanks.
"Oh, right, system, did I get a red diamond for seven days as a reward for defeating my master last time?”Qi Zhen suddenly thought of this and asked the system.
"Yes, I am. The red diamond has been stored in your warehouse for seven days and can be used at any time. As long as the red diamond is in effect, the host can disguise himself as anyone. However, I would like to remind the host that you previously owed a total of 1.2 million Bailey, of which you have returned a million Bailey, and you still owe the system 200,000 Bailey. Please be considerate of the system, who is doing a small business. You still have four days, so please return the money on time!”the system replied.
" System, how dare you say that. You're actually a small business with millions of Bailey every minute…" Qi Zhen could not help but complain." But don't worry, I'll return the money to you immediately after I withdraw the money from Shields Town."”
"There's no rush. The system has always been magnanimous.”The system immediately pretended to be polite when it heard that it could return the money. However, Qi Zhen knew that he could not trust this guy casually. If Qi Zhenzhen did not return the money, the broken system would probably cry and make a fuss, asking Qi Zhen to pay up.
In fact, Qi Zhen had been looking for bugs in this lousy system, so that he could exploit a loophole to kill it. It had to be said that not only was Xun Teng a good game, but there were also very few loopholes. The current system was actually the same.
What else could Qi Zhen do? Qi Zhen was also very melancholic!
However, was Xun Teng's gaming system really flawless? The corners of Qi Zhen's mouth curled up as he continued to look into the distance with a wait-and-see expression.
However, after a while, that strange fragrance kept drilling into his nose. He had also asked others if they smelled anything strange, but it seemed that only he could smell it.
And now, Qi Zhen really could not take it anymore! F * ck, he decided to go and see what was so fragrant! He raised his head and sniffed hard. He then looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to him, so he followed the smell to the source.
The source seemed to be coming from the bottom of the ship. Qi Zhen guessed what attracted him as he walked.
Could it be some special and very fragrant flower? But it couldn't be that fragrant, right? It couldn't be weed, could it? Qi Zhen felt that he was like a drug addict, filled with greed for this smell.
However, it was impossible for Angula to smuggle drugs on this merchant ship, right? The uncle looked quite cheerful. He didn't look like a drug dealer.
Qi Zhen let his imagination run wild and stopped in front of a room at the bottom of the merchant ship. He looked at the door of the room. This…seemed to be one of the warehouses where goods were stored, right?
Qi Zhen reached out and pulled the door. He realized that the door was locked. However, this was nothing to Qi Zhen. He hesitated for a moment before using his hidden strength to unlock the door. Then, he quietly pushed the door open and closed it.
Qi Zhen was stunned when he entered the room. Because the room was filled with wooden barrels, there were no flowers or drugs as expected.
However, the attraction was exceptionally strong, and Qi Zhen suddenly realized what this smell was.
Wine! The rich aroma of wine!
Qi Zhen quickly walked to one of the wooden barrels and opened it. Sure enough, it was filled with liquid. He stretched out his finger and tasted it. Qi Zhen felt his entire body go limp.
Wine! It really was wine!
Qi Zhen's eyes lit up as he looked at the wine barrels in the room and swallowed his saliva. Strange, I remember that I wasn't an alcoholic before. Why did it seem like he was looking at gold when he saw wine?
Could it be…Qi Zhen recalled that he had fused with the Gale Sword Hero Yasuo, who had excellent swordsmanship but was also addicted to alcohol!
My sword is more important than anything else, except fine wine!
Qi Zhen couldn't take it anymore and immediately pounced towards the wine barrel!
