When talking about the situation of that day, the man's face was full of memories, and it was obvious that there was something unforgettable for him.
After hearing this, the three brothers became more energetic.
Yu Qing calmed his expression again and asked, "It seems that the guest officer is indeed unforgettable for you. Could it be that she is a woman?"
After being told this, the waiter smiled, stopped talking, and continued to pour tea for everyone.
This look was an admission. Yu Qing immediately asked again: "What kind of woman is she that you can still remember after a few years?"
After pouring some tea for Xiao Hei, the waiter put down the teapot and gave it to them for their own use, "She must be a very good-looking woman."
Nanzhu suddenly had an opinion, "What is a should? It can impress you so much, how can it be a should?"
The clerk explained, "She was wearing a cloak, and the brim of the hat covered most of her face. Only her mouth and chin could be seen. I have always wanted to see what she looked like. However, from the time she entered the door to the time she left the house, even if she was eating or drinking. I have never taken off my hat. But even that half of my face is pretty, so it should look good."
The three brothers looked at each other speechlessly, their feelings were hazy and beautiful.
Yu Qing raised his hand and touched his mustache, pretending to be a vagabond. He laughed and said, "Now that you say that, I'm also interested. Do you know where that woman is from and what her name is?"
The waiter shrugged and pointed to the window, "I came here quietly, sat alone by the window and drank a bottle of wine. I ordered side dishes without using any chopsticks. The rain didn't stop, and I left alone again. I don't know where I came from, and I don't know where I came from." Wherever you are going, how can you know what it is called?”
Nanzhu twisted his lips in amusement, feeling that the woman had indeed felt right about this guy, observing him so carefully.
Yu Qing: "We haven't seen each other since?"
The waiter thought for a moment and said, "Anyway, I never saw him again when I was waiting in court." After that, he turned around and left.
But Yu Qing stood up and called him again, "Man, what you said makes me feel itchy. You know where you are going, right? Is it going to the outside world or to the sea market?"
The waiter had a slightly suspicious look on his face. He obviously noticed that Yu Qing was a little overly concerned, but he still said politely: "I vaguely saw that I went to the trestle to light up the lights. I should have gone to the sea market." After saying that, he bowed and pointed. Pointing downstairs, indicating that he was going to get busy.
Yu Qing cupped his hands, let the other person go, and slowly sat down.
The heads of the seats on the left and right also stretched over. Nanzhu asked in a low voice: "Is it her?"
Yu Qing gestured to the ring on his hand, "If there are really only two rings, and if the guy didn't miss it, it's not her, and it has something to do with her."
Nanzhu: "If it were her, how terrifying would her strength be if she were still alive today? It feels a bit unrealistic."
Yu Qing: "No matter who is holding that ring, find her first."
Mu Aotie reminded: "There are clues just after arriving, is it another trap?"
The loss I suffered last time is still fresh in my mind. The pit was so deep that it almost buried everyone.
Nanzhu: "I believe that someone is targeting us. I don't believe that there is another hole waiting for us in this ring. Unless there is another traitor within us, it is not likely that outsiders will know about it. "
Yu Qing nodded slightly, agreeing with Lao Qi's statement.
Nanzhu asked again: "What to do next?"
Yu Qing: "Once it is confirmed that such a person exists, it will be easier to handle. There are only two ways to do it, either to investigate openly or to make secret visits."
Nanzhu: "What's the secret method? Go to the surrounding islands and ask if you have seen the woman that the guy saw?"
At this moment, there was another sound coming upstairs.
Yu Qing curled his lips at Xiao Hei, "It's not easy to cause trouble here with this guy, and it's not safe here either. Let's go to Haishi first and put the little guy in a safe place, and then take care of this matter. Not to mention the target It's more likely to be in Haishi." After that, he stopped.
Nan and Mu understood and remained silent.
The waiter carrying the tray delivered the dishes. All three dishes were ready and placed on the table one by one. The waiter excused himself and left.
The food is not a good one, but it is still fragrant and looks pretty good. I put down my chopsticks to taste it, and it tastes pretty good.
After Xiao Hei tasted the three dishes one by one, he threw away his chopsticks and became dissatisfied. He shouted: "I want to eat meat, and 'Big Bang' also wants to eat meat."
Yu Qing raised his eyebrows and said, "If you don't have money, don't eat if you don't want to."
Nanzhu picked up the chopsticks and stuffed them back into Xiao Hei's hands. He spoke softly and said seductively: "We spent a lot of money on you on the way. We have no money. When we see your father when we come back, remember to ask him to give us money." ,do you know?"
Xiao Hei hummed, but then got off the stool with his bare feet, and said to the three of them: "I'm going to find them for meat." After saying that, he reached out and picked up the big stick hanging behind his back, put it on his shoulder, and went to find the inn. discuss.
The three brothers immediately panicked and wanted to ask him, do you think this is Youjiao Port? If you smashed someone else's shop or ate and drank for free, would your father pay for it? If you mess around here, we will lose money, and maybe we will have to fight.
Nanzhu quickly stood up and grabbed him, coercing him and calming him down with some reasoning.
The little guy didn't want to eat, but the three adults kept using their chopsticks.
While eating, Nanzhu suddenly whispered: "I remembered it. It is said that the contemporary 'Ming Monk' of Minghai is the brother of Xuan Guogong Ying Xiaotang. That man is even the great sage of Qianliu Mountain." If you want to give someone some face, don't you know Ying Xiaotang? If we can use Ying Xiaotang's connections and ask that 'underworld monk' to help, we can find someone in Haishi who can get twice the result with half the effort."
Yu Qing has also heard of this rumor. It refers to a person recommended by the sea tribe of Minghai to communicate with the outside world. The person who takes this position needs to become a monk. He is called a monk of Minghai, which is also an ancient tradition. The profession, like the Taoist priests of Linglongguan, is basically a profession that is extinct. "Underworld Monk" is the abbreviation.
The contemporary 'Ming Monk' is what Nanzhu said. He is the elder brother of Ying Xiaotang, Duke of Xuan Kingdom of Jin Kingdom. It is said that he has advanced cultivation and belongs to the ranks below several top masters. Because he enjoys a high status in the Hai Clan, Even the Great Sage of Qianliu Mountain had to give face.
It is said that this is the reason why Ying Xiaotang dared to fight against the Dimu of Sinan Mansion in Jin Kingdom, and the Dimu did not dare to mess with Xiaotang.
Yu Qing snorted, "It's useless to know each other, that is, we have met once, and our friendship is as thin as paper. Can you be related to someone like the 'Underworld Monk'? In the eyes of others, what do you think? Don't think too much." too much."
Nanzhu thought about it, shrugged and said nothing.
The three brothers did not waste the three dishes and ate them all. After all, it was more than a thousand taels of silver.
I didn't feel wronged when I paid the bill. I spent more than a thousand taels to learn important news, which was quite a bargain.
After leaving the store, the three adults and one child went down the mountain. They didn't plan to go shopping anymore and headed straight for the trestle in the direction of the mist.
The sun was about to set, and the light was much darker. Even the nearby scenes could only be seen hazily.
The wooden trestle stretches from the seaside to the mist on the sea. When a few people step on it, they can hear the creaking of the wooden boards. The quality is not much better than the one that Nanzhu stepped on before. There are no handrails on both sides. The light can accidentally fall. Can walk into the sea.
The group moved forward cautiously, with Mu Aotie leading the way, and the three adults all held glowstones for lighting.
Although it is a seaside, the environment is very strange because it is very quiet and the sea water is calm and waveless, like stagnant water, with a slight haze.
The Baizhang trestle, three large and one small, reached the end and were already standing in the faint mist.
There was a pole standing at the end, with a white lantern hanging on it. Mu Aotie took it off, took out the fire stick and blew it, lit the lantern, and then hung it back on the pole. The light of the lantern was unknown. The reason for this environment is that it looks pale and pale, and it feels a bit seeping.
The fluorescent stones in the hands of the three brothers also disappeared, leaving the lanterns to shine alone.
If you move your feet slightly, the wooden boards under your feet will creak.
A faint mist drifted slowly.
The sea water has no waves and is dead silent. Looking down from above, it is like a black mirror. The reflected scene is clear, but from time to time it is blurred by the light mist floating up.
A few people could only stand here and wait, looking around. From time to time, lanterns like this were lit on the edge of other islands, or they wandered towards the depths of the sea, turning into faint light spots and gradually disappearing. .
Xiao Hei seems to be curious about everything, such as the crunching sound under his feet. The little guy deliberately steps on it, and even jumps up and stamps it with his feet, just to keep hearing the sound, and the more he plays, the more excited he becomes.
Jumping over, jumping back.
What is weirdness in the dark? For him who can see in the dark, it doesn't exist!
It kind of ruins the atmosphere here and makes it a little annoying.
Waiting and waiting for a long time, Yu Qing, who was staring at the fog floating around the light of the lantern, suddenly said: "The ship is coming, let him calm down."
Nan and Mu looked forward hard, but they saw it was pitch black. Apart from a faint mist, they couldn't see anything. They didn't know how he concluded that the ship was coming, but since this person said so, he must be right.
Nanzhu immediately grabbed Xiao Hei, pinched the back of his neck, and controlled him.
Not long after, there was indeed the sound of swaying water, and faint ripples appeared on the sea surface.
A ship slowly appeared in the darkness, floating gently towards this side. After the boat approached, everyone felt strange again. They saw that the boat was empty, not even a single figure, like a ghost floating over by itself.
There was a similar lantern hanging on the boat, but it was extinguished.
The boat arrived at the end of the trestle, slowly adjusted its direction, and slowly leaned sideways against the end of the bridge, revealing a man hiding at the stern of the boat. The person was lying on the stern of the boat with his hands, and most of his body was submerged in the water. The part that emerged from the water was also blocked by the stern of the boat. No wonder he couldn't see anyone.
The boatman in the water has disheveled hair and a dark complexion. He grins at the people on the bridge, revealing his jagged teeth. The upper half is a human body, and the lower half is a fish tail covered with fish scales, swinging lightly on the bridge. In the water, he controlled the boat steadily.
