In the sky, stars twinkled.
On the sea, there is endless darkness.
The big ship swayed between the sea and the sky and moved forward through the waves. The never-ending sound of waves and the roar of sails alternately hit the ears, making people unable to help but feel upset and unable to calm down.
Yu Ye had enough of the sea breeze at the bow of the boat and walked back along the side of the boat.
Meng Qingqing has returned to rest.
Regarding her worries and inquiries, Yu Ye could only remain silent.
What could he say?
Taofeng and others are determined to deal with the two Qizhou monks. No matter whether they can succeed or not, once they start fighting, both sides will inevitably suffer casualties. Taofeng should understand the pros and cons of this, but instead of listening to the persuasion, he instigated Meng Qingqing to come to find out what was going on, just to get him to join the gang and make it known to the outside world.
Among the six Taoist disciples, only Meng Qingqing interacted with him. Even this simple friendship seems not simple now.
The night is getting darker and everyone has taken a rest. There are only a few Chen family members who are either guarding the bow or on the ship's building, responsible for patrolling and sailing the ship.
There are twenty children of the Chen family, all of whom are strong men. They are all familiar with water and are good at sailing and sailing.
There is still a string of lanterns hanging in front of the ship building.
The lantern is made of fish skin, which is waterproof and windproof. It uses fish oil paraffin as a lamp and can be lit for a long time. Such seven small lanterns, connected up and down in a string, become a scenery when sailing at night, and also add a touch of light to the vast sea.
Use the light to find the hatch.
Just as Yu Ye was about to step off the deck, he heard the door open and someone making a sound——
"Can I take a moment to talk?"
It turned out to be Ah Hu, standing in front of the door, smiling and extending his hand to signal.
Yu Ye nodded, turned around and walked over.
There is a wooden ladder on both sides of the ship building.
Climb the wooden ladder to the ship building.
The upper deck of the ship is three to five feet square, which is very spacious. Two men were at the helm of the ship, and one man was the lookout. Both of them were focused on fulfilling their duties.
Ah Hu walked to the side of the ship building, cupped his hands and said: "At the beginning of the voyage, everything is complicated, and we have been busy for a whole day. Don't blame me if I am disrespectful!"
Yu Ye stood firmly aside and raised his hand to return the salute——
"Young master, there is no need to be polite!"
"If you don't see me outside, call me Ahu!"
"Forget it, you and I are on a first-name basis!"
"Ha ha!"
Although Ahu is shrewd and sophisticated, he still has a forthright temperament and said with a smile: "Nowadays, calling you brother is no different than before. Calling you brother would be too much to be flattering. However, we use each other's first names, and there is no personal relationship. It has nothing to do with it. Common etiquette, the friendship between gentlemen, is very good, very good!"
The young master was very talkative, and continued: "There are often people who practice Taoism on the Chen family's ships. I have also seen the art of talismans. Therefore, when I first met you in Cao Herb Town, I already guessed the purpose of your purchase of cinnabar. , but I didn’t expect you to be so famous at such a young age!”
"It's just a false name for spreading lies, I really don't deserve it!"
Yu Ye said humbly and tentatively said: "Ah Hu exempted me from the shipping fee and I haven't thanked you yet. How about I make a fire and cook as compensation?"
"Ha ha!"
Ahu waved his hand, shook his head and said with a smile: "You are talking about Taoist Master Guiyuan, he has boarded my family's ship many years ago and is an old friend of my father's generation. He claims to be a Taoist master and plays the game. As a junior, I , I should be more polite. But I haven’t seen him have any magical powers. Now he insists on lighting a fire and cooking, so I can only let him. But..."
A gust of wind and waves came and the ship rocked.
Ahu held on to the railing on the ship's side and continued: "However, before setting sail, the old man mentioned to me that if a young man named Yu Ye comes to take the ship, he must not accept the ship fare. I once asked And the reason, he said that you are a noble person who can help me turn misfortune into good luck and turn adversity into good fortune!"
"He's talking nonsense!"
Yu Ye couldn't help laughing and asked casually: "As you just said, Gui Yuanzi took a sea ship to Daze many years ago?"
Ahu affirmed: "Exactly!"
"oh……"
Yu Ye pondered for a moment and said: "I am just a refugee. I don't know how to sail a boat or the rules of the sea. But there is something I don't understand. I want to ask my young master for help..."
"Ahu, Huazhou Ahu!"
"Well, I am Yu Ye, Yu Ye from Yujia Village!"
"Speaking--"
"The enmity between several Taoist disciples and two Qizhou monks is hard to resolve. What will happen if they start a fight on the ship?"
Ahu's face changed and he said hurriedly: "The monks fight with each other. It's not just a fight with fists and kicks. Under the magical power, the ship will be destroyed and everyone will be killed!" He became more and more worried, and said: "Both sides are masters of the Taoism, and neither of us can I can't afford to offend you. Only you can persuade me to avoid this disaster. Please——"
Yu Ye nodded, smiled bitterly, turned around and walked down the ship building.
Although Taofeng and others are not high in cultivation, they are extremely stubborn. And if the impulse of a few people cannot be stopped, innocent people will inevitably be affected.
Alas, I wanted to board a sea ship and arrive at Qizhou smoothly, but who wants to get into disputes again.
"Can I take a moment to talk?"
As soon as Yu Ye stepped down the wooden stairs, he heard someone calling him.
Ahu was still on the ship building, waving to him.
Yu Ye turned to a small cabin under the ship's building, also called a cabin. He hesitated for a moment, then reached out and pushed open the door.
In the small cabin, oil lamps were lit. It can be seen that someone is sitting on the couch, and the message is: "Please come in-"
Yu Ye raised his feet and walked in.
The door is closed.
In an instant, several spells were fired, and the cabin was surrounded by a layer of magic, which not only blocked the movement on the ship, but also made the small place become a world of its own.
"Please sit down
The cabin is only five feet in size and contains a bed, a table, and two stools. The small window open for light and ventilation at the head of the bed has been blocked by magic power at this time.
A middle-aged man was sitting cross-legged on the couch. His sparse beard, thin face, and reserved eyes all revealed shrewdness and strength. However, at this moment, he was smiling bitterly, looking desolate and lonely.
Gan Xing was hunted down in the wild many times. It is such a powerful opponent, a life and death enemy, and now he is on the same boat and in the same room. It can only be said that the situation is unpredictable and the timing is unpredictable.
"A few Taoist disciples peeked in from time to time and were really disturbed. They also set up restrictions in order to keep things clean for a while."
Gan Xing said this, and then raised his hand to indicate: "You and I have settled our grudges, sit down!"
His words were an expression of goodwill; the restrictions he set were simpler and easier to use than the Three Talents Formation.
Yu Ye sat on the stool.
Gan Xing was only a foot away from him. Although their grudges were clear, he was still a little uneasy. In other words, he is well aware of the unpredictable nature of people's hearts.
"I know you are wary of me, and why am I not? After all, you killed Nanshan, and the power of your sword energy is unpredictable. Fortunately, I helped you twice and left a way out. Now Bu Yi has promised me When I return to Qizhou, I might as well tell you something clearly..."
Gan Xing slowed down for a moment and said in a low voice: "I noticed you when you visited Beiqi Mountain at night. Later, you mingled with the crowd. The reason why I turned a blind eye was because of Bu Yi's instructions..."
Yu Ye nodded.
"Buyi and Nanshan didn't get along, so he used your hand to ruin the Immortal Sect's celebration, but he couldn't control Nanshan's two junior brothers, causing Daze Taoist Sect to suffer another disaster. In anger, he no longer interfered with the Immortal Sect's affairs, and Qiu Yuan and I were sent away. I was the only one among the Taoist friends who survived. Not only did we return empty-handed, but we were also not allowed to reveal our trip to Daze. Otherwise, our lives were hard to save. Now that I think about it, why would you live and die? …”
Gan Xing sighed and continued: "I have been cultivating to the perfection of Qi refining for many years, and I will not be able to go out in seclusion this time when I return to Qizhou. As for whether I can build the foundation, I leave it to fate. And you are still young, and your future is hard to estimate. If you ever reach the top, don’t forget your old friendship!”
Yu Ye shook his head.
"This is not a false compliment on my part, it's what Bu Yi said."
"oh?"
"Although Bu Yi let you go, he firmly believes that you have obtained the overseas treasure. But your luck is against the will of heaven, and there is nothing he can do about it."
"It's an exaggeration."
"Haha, if we look at the Qizhou Immortal Sect, a Qi Refining disciple who has just entered the Immortal Path has not only killed the masters of the fifth to ninth levels of Qi Refining, but also the seniors of the sixth level of Foundation Establishment have died in his hands. You go Let me ask you, who dares to believe that this is not a coincidence, so what is it?"
"What kind of treasure is it?"
"You asked me once, but no one knows. Maybe the master of Yunchuan Sect knows the details."
"What is the cultivation level of the master of Yunchuan Sect?"
"You don't think you can kill a master of Jindan, do you?"
"I don't dare. I still know myself."
"Even if your luck is against the heavens, it will be unlucky for you to go to Qizhou. I advise you to find a place to live in an immortal sect first, and then worry about it later!"
"Why do you want to find shelter in a fairy gate?"
"Without the protection of the Immortal Sect, it would be difficult for you to find a place in Qizhou."
"You don't want to take away the treasure from me?"
"Haha, I may not be able to kill you, so why cause trouble. Besides, although the treasure is good, it is also the source of trouble. The Yunchuan Sect will definitely not give up. You should know better than me!"
Yu Ye lowered his head and said nothing.
Gan Xing's words were like a mountain pressing on his head, making him feel heavy and breathless for a moment.
The mysterious Yunchuan Immortal Sect is located in Qizhou. Even if his chances are against the heavens, it would be difficult for him to face the powerful Jin Dan master. Going here is like entering a tiger's den alone. If he is not careful, he will be shattered to pieces.
And all the people who know him firmly believe that he has treasures from overseas. Presumably Taofeng and others believed this deeply, so they kept wooing him and testing him, but they also kept secretly on guard against him.
Then I heard Gan Xing continue to say: "I invite you to talk tonight, I have no other intention. It is rare for us to ride on the same boat, and we will inevitably take care of each other in the future. Besides..." He thought about it for a while, and then said: "You also want to advise a few Taoist disciples. , don’t cause trouble anymore. Let’s put aside the grudges and make peace the most important thing!”
"I was just about to talk about this, but a few fellow Taoists refused to listen!"
"Oh, what does Tao Feng want to do?"
"I'm just afraid...it won't be good for you."
"Haha, he doesn't have the ability or the courage!"
Yu Ye said no more, raised his hands and said: "Have a rest!"
Brother Gan's face became a little brighter, he raised his hand to create a spell, and said with a smile: "I won't give it away!"
Yu Ye stood up and walked out, and the door closed silently behind him.
He came to the deck.
The night is dark.
The sea breeze is blowing...
