I became a saint in the game

Chapter 259 Inside Story

"The night is long and I have no desire to sleep!"

Chen Shicheng crossed his legs and lay on the thatched grass like he was at home, looking at the small fence that was the only window to see the sunlight. Suddenly his tone changed, "So you were spying on me so blatantly from outside my window?"

"."

After a moment of silence, a deep voice came from outside the empty fence, "I just happen to be in charge of patrolling this area."

"What a coincidence."

Chen Shicheng raised his eyebrows. This voice sounded familiar. It seemed to be the captain of the scout team that he met near the fishing village. "Tell me, what did you come here for? Don't say you came here to thank me for getting someone to clean up the pirates."

"That's not the case. Even if you who are returning home don't take action, the prince's army will not stand idly by."

"whispering sound."

Chen Shicheng shook his hands in disdain. "Come on, your prince has invited those pirates to his mansion and treated them graciously. The army might go to protect them and target us players."

"."

There was silence outside the small fence for a moment, and then the subject was changed abruptly, "You want to take action in front of the palace, which is a bit troublesome. According to the prince's order, people like you who return home are not afraid of death, so I plan to imprison you for a few years."

"I can commit suicide!" Chen Shicheng interrupted him directly.

"If you want to die, you'd better hurry up. Tomorrow, a formation master will seal your entire body's true energy, leaving you like a dead person, only able to think but not move."

"Mmmm, your Majesty is amazing, and the formation master is awesome."

Chen Shicheng nodded perfunctorily, not caring at all. Not to mention whether the power of the palace could keep him, the thought of himself being imprisoned by a formation when his Immortal-Slaying Formation was at its maximum level was ridiculous.

However, this scout captain is quite wild. He even knows how the prince deals with him. So, might he also know something about the inside story of why the Japanese pirates were invited to the prince's palace?

Chen Shicheng rolled his eyes and asked casually, "By the way, weren't you ordered by the prince to track down the Japanese pirates and annihilate them all? How come he became a VIP?"

"Hey."

The scout captain outside the window sighed depressedly and said in a muffled voice, "After bringing those women back and settling them down that night, I reported the news I found out to the prince, but..."

He paused for a moment, then continued angrily, "But in the study, I met the messengers of the Japanese pirates. They brought a piece of news that was very important to the prince. It seemed that this was the purpose of their coming to Dayu, so they became the distinguished guests of the mansion."

"Important news?" Chen Shicheng immediately thought of the map and the landing point on it. "What kind of news would make the dignified King Zhenhai put aside his past grudges and cooperate with a group of Japanese pirates?"

"I am already sorry to tell you so much, Your Highness. I will never tell anyone such a secret."

Ugh!

Boy, you've been exposed.

Doesn't this tell me that you know the secret here?
Chen Shicheng sat up from the ground, walked to the fence, supported himself on the wall with one hand, looked up at a 45-degree angle, and said melancholy, "Because the Japanese pirates killed our people, I wiped them out. Because I wiped them out, I had hatred for them. Because I had hatred for them, I wanted to wipe out the roots in front of the palace. Because I wanted to wipe out the roots, I was locked up in the dungeon." "I will ask the prince to show mercy." The scout captain seemed to buy it and made a hesitant promise.

But Chen Shicheng ignored him and continued with tears in his eyes, "Just because I eliminated the invading Japanese pirates, I have to be imprisoned for several years and cannot move or speak. It's miserable, too miserable. It's so miserable that I just want to know why the prince did this, isn't it?"

"."

This time there was no movement outside the fence for several minutes. Just when Chen Shicheng thought that his trick of playing the victim had not worked and the people had left, the scout captain's voice came from outside, like the sound of nature.

"Wait a moment, let me see if there's anyone around."

After he finished speaking, there was a slight "rustling" sound from outside. The scout captain quickly patrolled the area nearby, then returned to the dungeon fence and spoke quickly and in a low voice.

"A long time ago, a dynasty sent a fleet to search for the fairy island overseas, but no ship returned. Since then, rumors of ghost ships have spread across the ocean."

"There was a fisherman who saw a rotten giant ship sailing on the sea without sails while fishing. After boarding the ship, he found immortality and founded a sect, becoming a giant of his generation. So in the next thousand years, countless people went out to sea to seek immortality, but most of them died in the belly of fish, and only a small number of them returned successfully with a full load. Since then, the story of immortal ships on the sea has become more and more popular."

"This time, it is said that the Japanese pirates have discovered the trace of the fairy ship and want to cooperate with the prince to capture the fairy ship and gain the greatest benefits. This is a temporary cooperation. This is all I can say. Take care of yourself."

After saying that, the scout captain turned and left, as if he had made some kind of decision.

Of course, Chen Shicheng ignored the scout captain who left because of guilt for betraying the prince's information. At this moment, he was clenching his fists and waving them fiercely at the air.

"I said there must be unexpected gains, whether there is a fairy ship or an opportunity!"

He was not familiar with the legend of the fairy ship on the East China Sea, nor did he know what opportunities the people who had boarded the fairy ship had gained, but he knew that the benefits that could make King Zhenhai of Dayu and a group of Japanese pirates cooperate must be enormous.

If you can get a hand in it, even if you can't get the entire fairy ship, you can still get rich by picking up some scraps!
"No, this kind of good thing can't be kept by one person."

After Chen Shicheng vented for a while and calmed down, he suddenly thought of the cooperation between the prince and the Japanese pirates.

The Japanese pirates are not a big problem, there are only more than a thousand of them. Although they are the main force, as long as their strength is not several levels higher than those scattered soldiers, he can kill them all with some effort.

But the situation with King Zhenhai is a bit tricky.

After all, he is the real prince of Dayu, with countless extraordinary people under his command, and at least hundreds of thousands of troops. If they are really hostile to him, his future days will definitely not be easy.

"Not necessarily!" Chen Shicheng was suddenly shocked.

Let's go back to what I said before. There is no setting of having two kings standing side by side in the Dayu Dynasty. Since the King of Zhenhai can be named a prince, he must be the brother of the current emperor.

Moreover, they have a very good relationship, otherwise there is no way that she would have given up her military power, so there is no way that her butt would be crooked.

There must be some deeper reasons why such a prince would cooperate with the Japanese pirates. If you think about it carefully, it is very likely because he must cooperate with the Japanese pirates to find the Xunxian Ship! (End of this chapter)
