Chapter 278: Su Zhao's Temptation

What made him break away from the ship was that he noticed monks flying back and forth on the island. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

At this time, it seems that there are many people on the island carrying logs to the ships.

After observing his surroundings and looking at the darkening sky, he decided to get closer and quietly submerged into the water again.

The reason why he dared to approach was because this was a sea with rough waves, and if it was on the surface of a lake on land, he would not dare to approach it, and the ripples triggered on the surface of the water would be easily spotted, and this place could be quickly covered by the waves.

As he approached the island, there was a chaotic sound of "gurgling or knocking" from the bottom of the water, and he followed the sound to the bottom of a ship, and once again quietly peeked out at the stern, and without putting his ears on the hull, he could hear the sound of "ding zero dang" from the cabin, and the sound of saws sawing wood.

Not only one ship, but also many of the boats on the left and right were filled with the sound of carpentry.

He wanted to get on board and take a look, but eventually gave up on the idea for safety.

After groping in the water for a while, he drifted away from the island, and from time to time he showed his head in the distance, circled the island, and counted the number of ships.

After thinking about it, he sank into the sea and quickly escaped from this place.

After diving for a long distance in one breath, he did not breathe until he was completely away from this side, and confirmed that the people on the island would not see him again, so he looked around repeatedly on the surface of the sea, and then jumped out of the sea and walked on the waves, all the way back to the sea......

Dakan City is the last city closest to the capital of Qi on Niu Youdao's route.

As always, Niu Youdao wandered around the city again, and halfway through the stroll, a disciple of Wuliang Mountain appeared, and while people were not paying attention, he nodded to the black peony from a distance.

Black peony is not like Niu Youdao, Niu Youdao is really walking around, black peony is playing with Niu Youdao but is not really playing, and there is a responsibility to observe the surroundings. This is something that Yuan Gang reminded and taught earlier, and even trained the people around Niu Youdao to a certain extent.

Don't say that monks are not monks, and some things monks are not as good as professionals.

Yuan Gang directly made it clear to these people when he trained, Dao Ye is the helmsman, that is, everyone's leader, Dao Ye's safety is the first place, Dao Ye can't have an accident, once Dao Ye has an accident, no one should think about it, as the people around Dao Ye have the responsibility to maintain Dao Ye's safety, and timely pick up and fill in the gaps to remind Dao Ye of things that Dao Ye didn't notice.

After all, Dao Ye is just a person, with only a pair of eyes and a pair of ears, and it is impossible to take care of all the surrounding situations anytime and anywhere, especially when he goes out.

Black Peony nodded slightly, and the Wuliang Mountain disciple quickly left.

While Niu Youdao stopped on the side of the road and squatted to look at the woodblock prints carved by a craftsman, Black Peony leaned over, talked and laughed at Niu Youdao, and suddenly whispered in Niu Youdao's ear, "Gongsun, please go back." ”

Niu Youdao bowed slightly, indicating that he knew, but he squatted there and didn't get up, and slowly admired the woodblock prints before getting up slowly.

Ling Huqiu is also admiring the hanging wooden paintings with his back hand, he didn't have this Yaxing, but when he met Niu Youdao, a slow turtle, he also lost his temper, and gradually became patient, appreciate it, appreciate it, anyway, it's nothing, idle is idle.

"Brother, I have returned to the inn beforehand, do you continue to enjoy it here?" Niu Youdao asked beside Ling Huqiu.

Ling Huqiu looked back in amazement, thinking, you go back, do I still need to appreciate this?

"Then let's go back together. Ling Huqiu waved his hand.

As soon as he returned to the inn, he saw that Niu Youdao was guarding the periphery of the room to prevent others from approaching, so Hu Qiu exchanged glances with Red Sleeves and Red Whisk, knowing that something was going on.

Although I can't figure out what Niu Youdao wants to do, I know that Niu Youdao's slow devouring is not so simple.

Niu Youdao entered the room, Black Peony quickly closed the door, and Gongsun Bu, who was waiting in the house, stood up and said with a slightly excited look: "Master Dao, the place for the transformation of the sea ship has been found." ”

Niu Youdao was surprised, "So fast?"

It has only been five days since the decision was made before, and it takes time to send the Golden Wing back and forth, the deployment of manpower, and the confirmation of the sea area that meets the requirements, all of which take time, so there is a result?

Gongsun Bu nodded and said: "Yes, the manpower of other countries is still on the way, and the manpower who received the task in the sea area of Qi was carried out first, and as a result, someone was found on the first day of the mission, thanks to the fact that we determined the direction of reconnaissance, otherwise no one can be sure that the ships coming and going on the sea are related to the target we are looking for." ”

"Okay!" Niu Youdao also perked up, "Where is it?"

Gongsun Bu raised his hand to the black peony and asked, and the black peony quickly took out the map, opened it and hung it on the wall.

Gongsun Bu stared at the map and examined it slightly, and pointed his finger at a sea area in the southwest of Qi Kingdom, "The approximate location is here, an island, there are many reefs in this sea area, and ships who don't know the route don't dare to pass here, even if they know the safe route of this area, ordinary ships will not come here to go around, and the environment here is in line with our previous prediction." ”

Niu Youdao: "Is it confirmed?"

Gongsun Bu: "It's confirmed, the specific number of ships moored around this island is not close to the inventory, there are monks on the island to inspect, but the number of ships estimated by the inspectors is about 200, all of which are the kind of sea ships we judged." Although the investigators did not dare to go ashore, they dived under the boat to investigate, and it was certain that the ship was being modified. ”

Niu Youdao asked again: "How long will it take for the ship to sail to the coastline of Qi Kingdom?"

Gongsun Bu: "In line with the judgment of the peony girl, it will be within a day." ”

"About two hundred, it seems that there are more than 10,000 war horses!" Niu Youdao sneered, stared at Gongsun Bu and solemnly instructed, "Let your people keep an eye on it, and once you find signs of transfer of ships, report back immediately! Remember, you don't need to do anything superfluous, and you don't need to take risks, just keep an eye on it, in short, you must not startle the snake!"

"Okay!" Gongsun Bu immediately received the order.

Sending Gongsun Bu away, Black Peony came back, and saw Niu Youdao thinking and wandering in the house, so he was quiet and did not disturb.

Niu Youdao paused for a moment, turned back to her and said, "There is no need to stay here any longer, immediately set off for the capital of Qi Kingdom, you go and inform Ling Huqiu to see what he means." ”

What else can Ling Huqiu mean, this is the so-called to help him, so naturally he will set off immediately......

Hu Yanwei's work efficiency is extremely high, saying that the houses around the tofu restaurant will be put down, and he will be put down, saying that it will never be delayed until the fourth day within three days.

Next door to the Tofu Restaurant, upstairs across an alley, in a private room, Qin Mian stood in front of the window near the alley, observing something outside.

In front of the table in the room, Su Zhao, dressed in plain clothes, slowly tasted a bowl of fresh tofu brain.

"It's coming. Qin Mian suddenly turned his head and called softly.

Su Zhao put down the spoon, got up slowly, moved to the window, and looked into the alley outside the half-open window, only to see Yuan Gang walking out of the depths of the alley.

Qin Mian walked to the window facing Minghu outside and waved his handkerchief.

At the corner of the alley, a little girl in dirty clothes appeared with a bowl of tofu, I don't know if it was the reason why she suddenly bumped into Yuan Gang, her hand was loosened, and the pottery bowl snapped and shattered on the ground.

Looking at the tofu brain that was sprinkled on the ground, the little girl pursed her mouth, looked aggrieved, tears slipped down one by one, and slowly squatted down, looking like she wanted to pick it up.

Yuan Gang stopped in front of her, and the big man bent his waist for the little girl, and slowly squatted in front of her, saying, "It's broken, don't want it." ”

The little girl sobbed aggrievedly: "I bought it for grandma." ”

Yuan Gang stretched out his hand to help her up, helped her wipe her tears, and a rare warmth appeared on his unsmiling face, "It's okay, buy another one." ”

The little girl shook her head and sobbed, "There is no money." ”

Yuan Gang took out a handful of money for her, and the little girl shook her head and took a step back, obviously not daring to ask for money from strangers.

"I know your grandmother...... Yuan Gang said something in his mouth, reached out and took the little girl's hand, and the back of one big and one small left the alley.

After a while, Qin Mian, who was looking out of the front window and looking at the front of the tofu restaurant, retracted his head and laughed in a low voice: "This big man really bought one for the little girl, and bought a bigger one." ”

Su Zhao, who was silent, slowly walked to this window again, and saw that the little girl had an extra clay pot in her hand, and it was tied with hemp rope, so that she could easily carry it, so she didn't have to hold it anymore, and left happily.

Su Zhao slowly returned to the table, looking at the tofu brain in the bowl, his heart was restless, and in his mind was a warm picture of a large and a small figure holding hands, which was indelible for a long time.

That day, when An Taiping said that there was no 'distinction between high and low', she listened to it in her ears, and her heart was shocked.

The reason why she was shocked was that no one knew the torment in her heart, and she longed to have a happy ending with that man who was almost a demon, a jade tree in the wind, and a man with strong ability, but what is her identity?

In the face of this world, she asked herself more than once, and Shao Pingbo more than once, will she really marry her?

Although Shao Pingbo's answer was very affirmative, it was unspeakable in her heart, she was thinking, once Shao Pingbo really became famous, could Shao Pingbo really marry a woman with a reputation like her?

For this world, An Taiping's words are a bit shocking, not to mention those young people who are looking for trouble, even she feels incredible when she hears it, although it touches the weakness in her heart.

But after that, that An Taiping even stood in front of the Qinglou maid with his body, resisting the whipping for the Qinglou maid.

She suspected that this An Taiping was contrived and wanted to try again.

I want to see what this An Taiping looks like when he is not in front of everyone's eyes and no one sees him behind his back.

Some things don't need to be shown too much, a movement, a look, you can see the clues.

However, the situation just now was far beyond her tentative expectations, and the warmth for such a poor little girl actually made her feel numb on her scalp, and made her deeply aware that in this man's heart, there is no distinction between high and low, this man is incompatible with this world, and he is a man who really doesn't care about what Qinglou is from!
