Chapter 263 Firm Faith

Xifa only glanced at it, and immediately flashed back to the window. The expression on his face did not change, but a turbulent wave arose in his heart.

has a problem!

There is indeed a problem with Windmill Island!

What are those people doing, what are they doing running out of the house in the middle of the night without sleep, they are even in their pajamas!

Where are they going?

Are they still human?

Cifer wondered if the Barrys were still in the hotel now that he was groping for the ground floor. Or, have they joined the 'parade' outside?

Eventually Sifa chose to go to bed.

He was very concerned about the spiritual fluctuations that merged into the darkness just now, not to mention that he just went to the island to inquire about pirates, and by the way, "interviewed" the customs of the island to find out what the local beliefs are.

There is no need to take risks.

Even so, Xifa didn't dare to let himself fall asleep. He used meditation to have a rest without falling asleep.

Sifa only slept for two hours until dawn and dawn.

When I got up again, it was already 8 o'clock in the morning. Sifa opened the curtains, heard the cries of seagulls from the sea, saw early fishermen sailing out to sea, and the pier was even more busy.

Who would have imagined that a normal picture would turn into a different painting style in the middle of the night.

On the dark streets without lights, the residents of the small island left their warm beds in groups, walking in the dark with stiff movements like living corpses, not knowing where they were going.

Xifa shook his head, and after washing, he came to the ground floor.

After breakfast, Xifa came to the reception. Behind the counter, the hotel owner with gray beard and hair was looking at the bill. Sifa knocked on the counter, and Barry put down the things in his hand and raised his head.

"Mr. Barry, I need a guide so that I can more accurately sell my wines to restaurants on the island. Do you know where I can hire a guide?"

Xifa smiled and took out a gold coin from the Loen Kingdom: "I hope you can introduce me to a good guide."

He put the gold coin on the counter, thinking that he would reimburse the captain when he returned.

"You are very generous." Barry stood up and put away the gold coin. "In this case, I am happy to let Midea take this job. She grew up on the island, and it can be said that every stone on the island is her We all know each other."

"Medea, Medea!"

Barry called a few times, and Midea, who was still dressed as a boy today, came out. Wearing a dark canvas jacket, a peaked cap, and a quick rag in her hand, she appears to be helping in the kitchen.

"Is there anything you can do for me, Dad." Midia glanced at Sifa again, "Good morning, Mr. Raleigh."

Barry said: "Don't work today, serve as a guide for Mr. Raleigh, go change your clothes, and take Mr. Raleigh around the island."

"Okay." Midea looked very happy, she responded happily, and walked back quickly.

Sifa sat down on a sofa next to her, waiting for Midea's arrival. Suddenly, he was inspired, and then heard an unreal knock on the door.

buckle buckle—

The voice sounded just outside the door of the hotel.

Sifa glanced at Barry at reception, who started looking at the bill again and lamented that a certain type of fish was expensive again. So Xifa lowered his voice, nodded towards the gate and called softly: "Come in."

After getting permission, the headless messenger, still dressed as a butler, passed through the door and came to Sifa.

He took out a letter from his pocket and put it in Xifa's hand. Xifa was stunned because it was the letter he asked to send to Forsi last night.

Before he could ask a question, Mr. Housekeeper took out a notebook and showed Xifa a page, which read: The recipient has moved.

After Xifa finished reading, Mr. Housekeeper closed the notebook, saluted, stepped back, and exited the hotel.

Miss Fors moved?

Why did you move, isn't it to avoid me?

No.

It shouldn't be necessary. Could it be that those two ladies are in danger?

Wait a minute.

If the letter is returned, will the mailing fee not be refunded?

Teng Teng Teng.

There were footsteps, and Midea came, who had changed into a long dress with floral patterns, and she also put on a straw hat with a bow tied with a ribbon.

The girl who had changed clothes was indeed a bit brighter than before, and she looked very pleasing to the eye. So Xifa temporarily put Forsi's affairs aside, asked Barry for a few bottles of wine that were deposited with him yesterday, and then left the restaurant with Midia.

Midia is a warm-hearted girl, she is very conscientious, and took Xifa to several restaurants on the island in just one morning. Almost all of Xifa's wines were sold out, and now there is only one bottle left.

They had lunch at a restaurant near the seaside, and in the afternoon, Midia took Sifa to the outside of the town.

When they passed by the sea, the girl looked at the sails in the distance, her eyes flickered, she didn't know what she was thinking.

"Have you ever left Windmill Island?" Sifa asked casually.

Midea shook her head: "Since we were sensible, we were told not to leave Windmill Island."

"Why, your parents don't allow it?" Xifa thought, this is too authoritarian.

"It's not."

Midia looked around and saw no one, so she lowered her voice and said, "It's because the great Asturka doesn't allow it. If the residents of the island leave the island and don't come back within seven days, they will all die."

Xifa was slightly taken aback, unable to believe it.

"Someone left before, but a week later, his body was floating on the nearby sea. Therefore, we have never left Windmill Island. The outside things are all told by outsiders like you."

"And even if we need to go to sea, we have to get back within a week."

This is a coincidence, right?

No, if their gods will respond to the believers, then it is normal to kill believers who dare to violate the oracle, which is called divine punishment.

Xifa thought of another thing: "I didn't see soldiers or police on the island. If pirates come, what will you do?"

Midia laughed as if hearing something incredible: "We are not afraid of pirates, we have never been attacked by pirates, because the great Asturka will protect us."

Your beliefs are very firm. Xifa smiled, not very convinced.

Seeing that Xifa didn't seem to believe it, Midea said with a little pride: "It's true. We have seen pirate ships approaching several times. Everyone is worried and ready to deal with it."

"But we soon discovered that those pirate ships stayed at sea and would not leave. So some fishermen boldly boarded the boat to search, and found that there was no one on board."

"But in the warehouses, we found food, water, wine, and sometimes jewellery. After a few incidents like this, we knew that the gods were watching over the island."

"Even if there are pirates who want to attack us, they will disappear and give us the things on the ship."

Xifa was dumbfounded when he heard this time, thinking, the pirate ship that the captain wanted to pursue must have encountered such a situation.

at the same time.

On the sea surface 20 nautical miles away from Windmill Island, the Breaking Wave found a sailboat, which was moored quietly on the sea surface. On the main pole, a black flag is fluttering in the wind.

On this black flag, there is a white skull with horns painted on it. It is the pirate ship that Ken Angus is looking for: the Manatee.
