Chapter 120: The Lord of Elysium
The owner of the ship wearing a gold mask sat at a table, dressed in a white gown woven from silk, which was very particular in style, workmanship, and cutting.
Behind him is a black coat, embroidered with gold edges, and the workmanship is also extremely exquisite.
On the table, there is a wine glass made of pure gold, a wine bottle made of pure gold, a pair of chopsticks made of pure silver, and a few rare seafood, all of which reveal the wealth and dignity of the host.
What is interesting is that in addition to the master wearing a mask, the other people on the ship are also wearing masks, but they are not wearing pure gold masks, of course, Dao Wujian and Poison Gongzi are not wearing masks.
The owner of the ship leisurely drank a glass of wine and said casually: "You two, have you thought about what secret you will exchange for your life?"
Exchanging his life with a secret, it seems that the mysterious ship's owner is not very friendly.
If it's a secret, who will tell anyone else? Is a secret a secret?
The poisonous boy said curtly: "Friend, can you change the conditions?"
The owner of the ship laughed twice, and said with a smile: "I am only interested in secrets, except for secrets, what do you think I lack?"
Dao Wujian and Poison Gongzi were speechless for a while.
The two of them could see that the owner of the ship in front of them lacked nothing, this person was not only rich, but also powerful, because the golden silk nanmu was a royal thing, and it was not something that could be obtained with money.
Seeing that the two were silent, the owner of the ship continued: "When I finish drinking this pot of wine, if you still refuse to tell me the secret, then I am sorry, I have to ask you to disembark." ”
"It's a storm outside, and it's on the sea, if you let us go down, won't you let us die?" said the poisonous boy indignantly.
"That's your business, not mine. The owner of the boat smiled, drank another glass of wine, and said slowly: "You must know that I have no responsibility to save you, and now I let you on the ship, which is equivalent to saving your life, do you owe me a life? ”
"Do you think it's a matter of course for me to save you? Then why should I save you, is this unfair to me? For example, if I run a restaurant, you don't pay for your meals at my place, is that good?"
The owner of the ship said that the head was the way, and the two of them didn't know how to refute for a while.
The poisonous boy said defensively: "Friend, you saved our lives, and I also admit that I owe you a life, and I will pay ......you back in the future."
Before the poisonous boy could finish speaking, the owner of the ship interrupted: "I never do business on credit, I am only interested in secrets. ”
The poisonous boy suddenly said coldly: "Don't force me. ”
"Yo. The owner of the ship laughed and said, "You can't be reasonable, do you still want to be rude?"
"You forced me. After the poisonous boy finished speaking, he looked at Dao Wujian and said, "Brother Dao, since they are arrogant and unreasonable, there is no need for us to be polite to them." ”
Dao Wujian did not answer, and looked at the ship's owner with a pensive expression.
The owner of the ship said with a smile: "Are you really ready to be rough? I hate being rough the most, we are human beings and not beasts, so why do you want to do it without saying a word, but if you really want to do it, these subordinates of mine are willing to accompany you through the trick." ”
"Just them?" the poisonous boy glanced at the people on the boat, bounced up from his seat, and the five fingers of his right hand were like iron hooks, grabbing at the throat of the ship's owner.
The owner of the ship sat motionless, as if he had not seen it at all.
"Presumptuous. A coquettish voice suddenly sounded, and it was obviously a woman who spoke.
A figure jumped from the side, the last to come, blocking the owner of the ship, and slashing at the poisonous son's veins with a knife in his left hand.
If he is cut off in the middle vein, the right hand of the poisonous prince is afraid that it will be scrapped.
The poisonous boy's heart was shocked, he couldn't imagine that the other party's body was so fast, and in desperation, he had no choice but to change his move, his right hand was slightly deviated, and he sank down, and then grabbed the soft underbelly of the waist of the comer, and patted the right shoulder of the comer with his left hand at the same time.
The poisonous boy changed his moves quickly, but the people who came changed his moves faster, as if he had made this trick in the first place.
I only heard the sound of fists and palms clashing, and the two of them had already passed five or six moves in the blink of an eye.
Suddenly, the two separated.
The poisonous boy fell back with a flushed face, and took four or five steps back before stopping, thinking that he couldn't even beat a woman, the poisonous boy's face was full of shame.
The woman was calm, glared at the poisonous boy, and then turned and stood behind the ship's owner.
"Haha......" The owner of the boat couldn't help laughing, laughed, and teased: "Even your master is the "Living Hades", and you don't dare to be so arrogant in front of me, you are very bold, dare to make a move on me, it is really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers." ”
The poisonous boy was shocked when he heard this, and couldn't help but say, "Do you recognize me? Who are you?"
"Not only do I know you're a poisonous man. The owner of the ship looked at Dao Wujian and smiled: "I still know that he is the sixth-ranked master on the list of rivers and lakes, am I not wrong, Dao Wuji?"
"That's right, the seniors are like torches and admire. Dao Wujian smiled: "If you don't guess wrong, your predecessor is the owner of Elysium Island who is rumored to be the head and tail of the dragon in the rivers and lakes, I don't know if you are wrong?"
The owner of Elysium, a legendary figure in the rivers and lakes.
It is rumored that the Lord of Elysium Island is well aware of people and things on the rivers and lakes, and he has a special habit, that is, he is extremely fond of collecting secrets.
Because he himself never walks around the rivers and lakes, no one on the rivers and lakes knows his identity, no one knows how high his kung fu is, and he doesn't even know whether he is a man or a woman, so he is not ranked on the list of know-it-alls.
As for whether he is walking around the rivers and lakes, no one can say, because you don't know his identity, even if he is standing in front of you, you don't know that he is the Lord of Elysium.
But everyone on the rivers and lakes knows that there is such a person.
Because every five years, four people who call themselves "wind", "flowers", "snow" and "moon" set foot in the rivers and lakes, and they claim to be the messengers of the Lord of Elysium, and no one knows the true identities of the four.
The purpose of their entry into the rivers and lakes was to find four people to go to the island of Elysium, exchange secrets with the owner of the island of Elysium, and if anyone disobeyed, there would be no forgiveness.
Therefore, whenever the four envoys set foot in the rivers and lakes, the people in the rivers and lakes were panicked, but because they did not know when the four envoys appeared in this year, where they appeared, and who they attacked, there was no way to deal with them.
Some people laughed that they didn't find the masters on the ranking list.
Fifteen years ago, Zhuo Yijian, the third-ranked master on the list of rivers and lakes at that time, received an invitation from the Lord of Elysium Island.
Zhuo Yijian relied on his strong martial arts and refused to go to Elysium Island, who knew that a few days later, someone found Zhuo Yijian's body in Qilipo outside Jining City.
Since then, no one on the rivers and lakes who has been approached by the Elysium Elysium has dared not follow him to Elysium.
As for where Elysium Island is, no one in the rivers and lakes knows, even if it is a person who has been to Elysium Island, they are tight-lipped about it and dare not divulge half a word.
