The Qunying Club is a group of people who travel around the world and perform as entertainers, and they are not that particular about travel.
Although we chartered an entire boat for our trip south this time, it was only a small passenger boat.
Most of the rooms on the ship are very small, with only enough room for a bed, table, chairs, and few desks.
In fact, after Lu Jing and Xia Huai put down their luggage, the room was almost full just by standing next to the bed.
No wonder Chen Tong and his group were waiting in the front cabin before.
Mr. Bai said a little apologetically, "This... the environment is a bit rough, mainly because business has not been easy to do recently."
"Understandable." Lu Jing asked, "How much is the shipping fee?"
"No, no, no," Mr. Bai quickly waved his hand, "Anyway, the money for chartering the boat has been spent. There is no difference between the two of you more and the two of you less. Just treat it as making friends."
After a pause, he continued, "The skills of the two of you are really amazing. I thought that you two could defeat Chen Tong, but I didn't expect that you would win so completely. I would like to ask you what your plans are in the future. ?"
Lu Jing had already thought of his words and said, "Oh, we plan to go south to join one of my uncles."
Mr. Bai nodded, "Nowadays, the world is difficult, and it is always a good thing to have relatives to rely on."
After saying that, he bowed his hands to Lu Jing and Xia Huai, "If you need anything else, you can find me in the room closest to the stern. Bai will not disturb the Xian couple."
When Mr. Bai left, only Lu Jing and Xia Huai were left in the small room.
Looking at the small bed where the two of them could only lie next to each other, Xia Huai regretted a little bit for lying about being Lu Jing's wife.
How to sleep like this?
As if he knew what she was thinking, Lu Jing said, "You can sleep on the bed."
"how about you?"
"I sleep on the bed too."
"…………"
"I was just kidding. I can go to the front cabin. It's quite big and there are chairs. I just need to put a few chairs together and I can sleep." Lu Jing said.
Xia Huai shook his head, "If someone sees us, they will definitely doubt our identity as husband and wife. Business is important, so let's not get into trouble."
She seemed to have made a lot of determination, pursed her lips and said, "Stay."
"and you……"
"I will stay too," Xia Huai said, "As long as we all wear clothes, we will all have a clear conscience."
The last four words she said were more like she said them to herself, to convince herself to accept Lu Jing's stay.
"Do you want to put a bowl of water in the middle?"
"What?"
"It's okay, I just suddenly remembered the story of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai. They seemed to have slept together in clothes like this." Lu Jing said.
"This is a story you made up, right?" Xia Huai had read a lot of books. She searched her mind and found no memory of these two names.
"No," Lu Jingdao, "If you want to listen, I can tell you."
"Who wants to listen to such a story?" Xia Huai blushed, and then took the initiative to change the topic, "I think Mr. Bai seems to have something in his words."
"Well, he probably wants to recruit us to join him to deal with Chen Tong."
"Chen Tong? Although that man has a bad mouth, he does have real skills in his hands. I didn't see how he did the paper puppet technique he just performed. How about you?"
"I didn't see it either." Lu Jing spread his hands.
Xia Huaiwen was a little surprised. She knew that Lu Jing's eyesight was very good and he could even observe the subtle details.
It stands to reason that the little moves made by ordinary entertainers should not be hidden from his eyes.
"I can roughly guess what the uses of his things are, and I can also guess the purpose of every step he takes, but I really didn't see any flaws when I read it from beginning to end."
Lu Jing praised, "That guy is quite powerful. No wonder he became a pillar of the Heroes Association."
Although Lu Jing easily defeated Chen Tong, he did not underestimate him because of this.
Because the fake trick he used on Chen Tong with real magic was actually cheating. It was normal to win and there was nothing to be proud of.
This was also the reason why Lu Jing didn't want to stay in the front cabin anymore. He was afraid that the people in the next group of heroes would blow him off too far. Although he was not thin-skinned, he was still a little embarrassed.
It's better to leave quietly like this, and at the same time establish an image of a mysterious and cold master, so that no one will come to ask questions again.
After Lu Jing said this, he heard another movement at the door.
To be precise, the rustling sound came from under the door.
I saw a small paper figure that had been cut very far away. It was laying its body flat, floating in from the gap between the door and the floor. Then it stood up again, patted the dust on its body, and jumped onto Lu Jing's palm.
"I just ordered it to circle around the cabin. Now everything seems to be normal. Except for some people staying in their own rooms, there is no ambush on the boat. It seems that they are just buskers traveling in groups. .”
Lu Jing looked at the little paper man making gestures and said.
After speaking, he closed his hands and the paper man was pressed in his palm. After a while, it stopped moving and turned back into an ordinary paper man.
"It's best this way," Xia Huai said, "I hope we can get to where Guo Shaojian wants us to go as soon as possible."
…………
The two of them basically stayed in the room for the next two days, and never went out except for meals and outings.
During the day, I meditate and practice, and at night, I put on my clothes and sleep.
It's a pity that the paper frog has been very quiet and there has been no movement.
However, on the third day, someone knocked on their door again.
Lu Jing thought it was Mr. Bai who came to persuade them to join the Heroes Club again.
Unexpectedly, after opening the door, standing outside was the little girl singing Beijing lyrics.
"Miss Xiaolian?" Lu Jing raised his eyebrows.
"Brother Lu, Sister Xia, can I come in?" Xiaolian said, her tone a little anxious.
"I don't object to you coming in, but are you sure you can really come in?"
Lu Jing glanced at the narrow and cramped house. After two people had squeezed in, there was almost no room for a third person to stay.
However, before he finished speaking, Xiaolian had already ducked in.
Well, it seems that she can not only sing Beijing lyrics, but also learn some dancing skills.
This waist looks like it has been trained.
With this move, she almost got into Lu Jing's arms.
Lu Jing glanced at Xia Huai beside him and simply retreated to the bed.
Xiaolian had already closed the door at this time.
Her heart was beating so fast that Lu Jing and Xia Huai could hear her pounding heartbeat even though they were so far apart.
"You...you are being targeted." Xiaolian lowered her voice.
Lu Jing and Xia Huai looked at each other, and then asked, "Who is it?"
