Chapter 19: Scars

As the sibling of white South Sea pearls, gold pearls are very expensive due to their scarcity in production. The pearls that Fang Jing found were not small, two of them were extraordinarily large, obviously more than fifteen millimeters, and the color was full and round, and at a glance he knew that they were high-quality products, but unfortunately the number was too small.

Fang Jing put the beads away, but it was the ruby earrings that attracted his attention even more.

The gemstones set on these earrings are purple-red in color, full of color, and the stones are irregularly shaped, which are obviously only set directly after careful polishing, without any traces of artificial cutting.

From a modern perspective, this ruby is not bright enough, nor clear enough, the luster and fire are not outstanding, and the only thing that is certain is that it is all natural.

I don't know how many years this earring has been lying under the seabed, and the gold filaments around the gemstone have lost their luster and are dull.

Fang Jing couldn't tell the origin of this earring for a while, and he had been in the water for nearly two hours, and if he didn't go back, Cen Jiu would be worried.

He put away the earrings, swam back, passed by a bed of oysters, and caught more than a dozen larger oysters for the barbecue at night.

On the fishing boat, a few young people were chatting with each other with their fishing rods, and in the water tank on the deck, several sea fish were floating half-dead.

Chen Siming raised his wrist to look at the time and said, "It's been an hour, why hasn't Xiao Jingzi come back yet, nothing will happen, right?" ”

Zhu Zhizheng stared intently at the fishing rod, and he didn't blink when he heard the words.

"Don't worry, Xiao Jingzi has good water nature, it's okay."

When he was in college, Fang Jing also went to be the coach of the swimming pool because of his good swimming skills, Zhu Zhi didn't know how to swim, and Fang Jing was taught by Fang Jing later.

As he was talking, waves suddenly splashed on the calm water, and Fang Jing emerged from the water.

"Yo, just as I was talking about you, I'll be back." Zhu Zhile was happy, he didn't care about the fishing rod, and ran over to look at Fang Jing's fishing basket.

"You've gone to the moon to catch fish."

Fang Jing untied the fish basket and lifted it up: "Come over and take the handle, take the fish basket." ”

Zhu Zhi, who was delicate and expensive, raised his hand to catch the fish basket, and his arm sank suddenly, and he stumbled and almost fell.

Good, so heavy! The hand is going to be broken!

Zhu Zhi exerted his strength to feed, and it was only with his two hands that he could put the fish basket on the deck, but just now Fang Jing looked at it and lifted the fish basket without much effort.

"I didn't see it, Xiao Jingzi, you still have a brute force." Zhu Zhi stared at Fang Jing with the eyes of a monster, and reached out to pinch his arm, and found that the muscles on Fang Jing's arm were not as strong as their own, which was particularly incredible.

When he was in college, Fang Jing was the youngest in the entire dormitory, and he was also small, like a little weak chicken, he hadn't seen him for a few years, but he actually had more strength than him.

Fang Jing was climbing towards the boat along the edge of the boat, and paused when he heard the words.

As soon as Zhu Zhi said this, he found that his strength seemed to have really increased a little!

A hand reached over and grabbed his arm with great force, pulling him up with ease.

Well, no matter how hard he tried, compared to Cen Jiuyi, he was instantly turned into scum in seconds.

Cen Jiu looked Fang Jing up and down, and found that his whole person was fine, and after not even scratching his body, he turned around and returned to the kitchen with the fish basket.

Chen Siming was carrying a bottle of beer in his hand, leaning on the side of the boat, watching the interaction between Fang Jing and Cen Jiu, looking a little thoughtful.

Regarding Cen Jiu's identity, Fang Jing's explanation to them was that he was a friend, but he always felt that this Cen Jiu didn't feel so simple, and he was entangled in his heart whether to remind Fang Jing or not.

The shrimp and crab that have just been caught from the sea, although the size is not satisfactory, but it is fresh, and it does not need to be carefully cooked, and the steamed Jiao sauce tastes very delicious.

"Little Keiko, what is that friend of yours doing in the back? Tell him to come out and eat with him. Zhu Zhi gnawed on a big lobster without any image, and his mouth was not idle, and said.

Fang Jing glanced in the direction of the kitchen, picked out two lobsters and three pike crabs and put them on the plate, and said, "I'll go and have a look, and give him something to eat by the way." ”

"Let's go." Zhu Zhi waved his hand, and found that the biggest lobster he had fancied had disappeared as he spoke, so he immediately put Cen Jiu behind his head and shouted, "Who snatched the lobster I was destined for?" You're too unsophisticated, give it back to meβ€”"

"It's late, I've already eaten it in my stomach, do you want to spit it out for you?"

"Damn, that's disgusting!"

Fang Jing smiled and ran to the stern of the boat, Cen Jiu was cleaning the fishing nets, his shirt had been taken off, revealing healthy wheat-colored skin, and his beautiful and smooth back muscles were down, tied into a thin and tight waistline, Fang Jing couldn't take his eyes off it, and then twisted his eyebrows.

I didn't pay attention to it before, but after a closer look today, I found that Cen Jiu's body was covered with large and small wounds, and there was hardly a complete piece of skin on his entire back.

"What's going on with these?" Fang Jing walked over and frowned.

"Injuries from before, don't look at them, they're scary." Cen Jiu picked up the T-shirt and put it on, covering the mottled wounds.

Fang Jing ignored him, walked around to him, lifted the hem of the T-shirt, and sure enough, his chest was also full of various scars, whiplash wounds and various scars that he couldn't distinguish, some had healed, leaving only shallow traces, and some were still new injuries, which had not been long after healing, and they looked particularly terrifying.

"How?" Fang Jing touched a hideous wound on his chest and asked.

The muscles under his fingers tensed suddenly, and Cen Jiu was silent for a while, saying, "It's been too long, I forgot." ”

Fang Jing was silent.

Cen Jiu rarely mentioned his past, and just from this injury, he could know how dangerous the career of the Great Qi Secret Guard was.

Some of the injuries on this body look old, like old dark wounds, how old is Cen Jiu this year? How old were you when you were injured? How much should it hurt?

As if guessing what he was thinking, Cen Jiuyi pressed his hand that he was touching, clasped it around his waist, and said, "It's all over, it doesn't hurt anymore." ”

How can it not hurt when it hurts so badly.

I unexpectedly remembered that when I first met Cen Jiu, Cen Jiu was as depressed as a vagabond, his ankles were swollen like a steamed bun, he walked like a nobody, and he could also act bravely, beating the two thieves who robbed him of his money, and there was no trace of pain on his face.

Either he is congenitally lacking in pain, or his body has long been accustomed to that kind of pain, and his tolerance for pain is so high that ordinary people can't imagine it.

An inexplicable feeling surged in Fang Jing's heart, a little sour, a little astringent and a little numb, as if he had knocked over a five-flavor bottle.

Cen Jiu lowered his head and looked at him, his eyes full of tenderness. He hesitated, then raised his other hand and pressed it on Fang Jing's back, holding the person in his arms weakly.

"Don't think about it, it doesn't hurt."

Fang Jing raised his head, the two looked at each other, and an inexplicable ambiguous aura rose between the two.

Cen Jiu's gaze fell on Fang Jing's pale lips, wandering.

Fang Jing also felt embarrassed, he didn't drink well, he got drunk every time he drank a drink, he was drunk that day and teased Cen Jiu with his wine, it was not that he had no memory at all, he only felt embarrassed at this time.

Zhu Zhi at the bow of the boat was shouting again, not knowing what was going on.

He answered, pushed Cen Jiu away, pushed it, didn't push it away, Cen Jiu let go of him.

He brought the steamed sea crab on the plate and said, "Eat whatever you want, and I'll make something for you in the evening." ”

Cen Jiu let go of him, picked up a small bench and sat down, ate the steamed crab sent by Fang Jing, and went to clean up the fishing nets, I don't know what I thought, the roots of my ears slowly turned red little by little.
