Chapter 124: Counting is Counting
Where did this man come from? Xiao Yin's gaze only stayed on the man's face for a moment, and the man paused keenly and turned his head to look around.
"What are you doing? Shocked. The crew next to him was startled by his sudden move, and beat people angrily.
"It's nothing, it's just that I suddenly feel like someone is looking at me." The man didn't notice anything, turned around a little confused, and continued walking.
"Pretending to be a ghost, hurry back to the bilge, the others didn't notice that you sneaked up, right?" The crew member cursed, and the next words lowered his voice even more, for fear of being heard by others.
"Don't worry, they're all asleep, I'm not too stuffy in the bilge, so I came up and secretly breathed. Big brother, you must keep it a secret from me, otherwise I will be miserable if the big boss knows. ”
"It's good that you know, why don't you go back quickly." The two whispered and walked away.
Xiao Yin came out of the shadows at this time, looking thoughtfully at the direction where the two left, he didn't expect that person to be so keen, if it weren't for Xiao Yin's martial arts being too much higher than him, he almost found his traces.
According to the information revealed during the conversation between the two men, it seems that there is another secret under the cabin of the ship. Xiao Yin realized that the people on the ship were not only those on the surface, but there were more hidden in the bilge.
Until this is clarified, his plan to seize the ship must be put on hold for the time being.
Xiao Yin returned to the room the same way as before, and was not noticed by anyone.
In the middle of the night, at dawn, the ship finally arrived in port, and I thought they would be taken off the ship, but there was no one to wait, and the room was suddenly darkened.
It seemed that the boat had entered a pitch-black corridor, the sound of the waves was very small, and through the window that opened a gap, Xiao Yin could hear the sound of paddling outside.
This place is obviously not on the sea anymore, Xiao Yin quietly calculated the time, it seemed that it had been a long time before the boat came out of the corridor, and his vision suddenly opened up, and the light of the day outside penetrated in, hitting Ran Qiunian's eyebrows.
Ran Qiunian moved her eyelids and slowly opened her eyes.
"Brother Yin?" Ran Qiunian still had a little confusion in her eyes that she had just woken up, she turned her head to see Xiao Yin sitting on the side, blinked her eyes, and opened her mouth to call, "Is the ship arriving at the port?" ”
Obviously, Ran Qiunian also felt the changes in the ship's movement, the light outside had already heralded the arrival of morning, and the big boss last night had said that the ship would dock early in the morning.
After saying that, Ran Qiunian's head completely sobered up, and then he remembered that he was fascinated by accidentally touching the ointment last night, and his face quickly became a little bad.
"This is not the wharf ...... of Yuzhen"
Knocking, there was a sudden knock on the door, Ran Qiunian's words came to an abrupt end, and then the person who knocked on the door didn't wait for the person in the room to answer, and directly pushed the door open.
"How did you two rest last night? The ship has arrived, so please get off the port. ”
The person who came in was obviously the big boss, he seemed to have expected that Ran Qiunian and Xiao Yin would wake up at this time, he still had a little relaxed smile on his face, but there were seven or eight crew members standing behind him, and he had the momentum of violent suppression if he was disobedient.
"What does this mean?"
Xiao Yin blocked Ran Qiunian behind him and asked in a cold voice.
"Just invite the two of you to the village as guests, meet new friends, rest assured, I will definitely not treat you badly."
After the big boss finished speaking, he turned around and left, the eight crew members walked into the house, and wanted to arrest people, Ran Qiunian was frightened and hid behind Xiao Yin, his face was a little pale, and he didn't understand why the big boss suddenly turned his face.
"We won't resist without that."
Seeing that the crew was holding a rope in their hands, Xiao Yin stretched out his hand to block it, got up and pulled Ran Qiunian over, and slowly walked out of the cabin under the watchful eye of the crew.
Seeing that Xiao Yin and Ran Qiunian had no intention of resisting, those people were also happy, and they didn't have to tie up the two of them, but just followed closely to prevent them from escaping.
Coming out of the cabin and standing on the deck bordering the land, you can clearly see that this is a body of water that has already belonged to the interior, and it is guarded on all sides, and it looks like a bandit's den when it is dressed.
But if you look closely, you will find that they march in a very orderly manner, and it is by no means something that those homeless bandits in the mountains and countryside can do.
"Brother Yin, where is this?" Ran Qiunian grabbed Xiao Yin's hand, looking at everything unfamiliar in front of her with some panic, although she didn't remember anything, she could feel the atmosphere here.
"These two are the good seedlings mentioned in the letter?"
A man in Tsing Yi was standing on the shore and was talking to the big boss, when he heard the movement, he turned his head to look at Xiao Yin and Ran Qiunian, and couldn't help but ask.
"How? The person I fancy is definitely the best quality. The big boss laughed, but the words he said made Ran Qiunian feel disliked.
That tone, as if she and Xiao Yin were just a piece of goods.
"You didn't deceive me this time, I thought it was a shoddy mediocrity from your broken fishing island, but this time I really picked up a treasure for you."
After the man in Tsing Yi finished speaking to the big boss, he turned his head to look at Ran Qiunian, who had just asked, hooked his lips and smiled: "This is a good place, the girl will know in the future." Send them into the stockade to be repaired, dressed up, and then sent to Accord. ”
Ran Qiunian frowned when he heard this, and didn't believe the words of the man in green clothes, but no one gave them a chance to stay longer, and after getting off the boat, they were pressed to the village.
"That's not a girl, these two are a couple, and they have been married for a long time."
After Ran Qiunian and Xiao Yin were escorted into the stockade and could not see any traces, the big boss explained regretfully.
"Married? How can it be. The man in Tsing Yi glanced at the big boss, as if he had thought of something, and suddenly smiled and said, "You're afraid that you have been deceived by them, judging from my eyesight for so many years of training, that girl is still a virgin at all, how can she ever get married?" ”
"What? Is this true? ”
The big boss was a little stunned, but he was convinced of the eyesight of the man in Tsing Yi, and immediately scolded viciously: "I was almost tricked by them, but this is also a good thing." ”
"That's right, that girl is still perfect, and she has such a face, it's a pity to stay in the stockade. Send a message to the master, just tomorrow I want to send a group of well-trained people over, bring this girl on, isn't the gray harrier lacking a good seedling? ”
The man in Tsing Yi had a smile on his face, since he could see through the lie of Xiao Yin and Ran Qiunian getting married at a glance, he could naturally guess that they had reservations in many things.
Are the identities of these two people as simple as they seem? The man in Tsing Yi chuckled, entering this village, those things don't matter, if anyone wants to run away and resist, keep the clothes that are packed.
Ran Qiunian followed Xiao Yin to the stockade, only to think that the stockade was surprisingly big, but along the way, except for the guards, there was no idler walking around at will.
The two were taken to a courtyard, and two women dressed as servants came over, took Ran Qiunian over, and took them straight to the west wing, and Xiao Yin was led to the east wing.
Xiao Yin's hand moved, but when he saw Ran Qiunian's reassuring eyes at him, he didn't act rashly, and saw Ran Qiunian being taken into the west wing to wash and change clothes.
"Childe, please move to the East Wing."
The two little guys were waiting aside, and when they saw Xiao Yin not moving, they couldn't help but remind them out loud.
When the few bandits who escorted Xiao Yin over heard this, they also showed displeasure, showed the rope in their hands, and stepped forward.
Xiao Yin silently retracted his gaze, turned around and walked into the east wing with the two little guys.
Seeing that the two of them had been arranged, the bandits who escorted people over also dispersed.
Since Ran Qiunian woke up, this was the first time she had been separated from Xiao Yin, although she was a little scared, but she also knew that those people wanted to get greater value from herself, and they would not do anything to themselves for a while, and her safety could be guaranteed.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but ask out loud to the two servant women who were bathing her, "What do you call the two sisters?" I wonder if you know what that Accord is? ”
Xu is Ran Qiunian's address to them pleased the two of them, and the faces of the two servants, who originally had a straight face, softened a little.
One of them looked kinder and explained, and it was not a secret: "Accord is a place to teach the young ladies in the village, and the young lady will come over in a while." ”
"Missies Childe?" Ran Qiunian repeated, and her heart became even more curious, "In addition to me and Brother Yin, there are other people like us in this village?" But isn't this a den of bandits, what is the purpose of building Accord? ”
I don't know which taboo Ran Qiunian's words touched, after she finished saying this, the servant woman who was originally willing to say a few words to her instantly fell silent.
Only then did Ran Qiunian realize that she had said the wrong thing, and was secretly regretting it, another servant woman who had never spoken opened her mouth and warned coldly: "Miss is new to the village, and she doesn't understand many rules, as long as you remember one point, be cautious in your words and deeds, learn more and talk less, and don't inquire about the news casually." ”
"Me, I'm just asking." Ran Qiunian secretly wrote down what the servant woman said, and was about to continue to put a few words, but this time, no matter what Ran Qiunian said, the two servant women no longer responded, so she had to give up.
It's just that in Ran Qiunian's heart, he is a little more vigilant against this bandit village that is strange everywhere.
After freshening up, the servants changed Ran Qiunian into a moon-white dress, the material is good material, but it is too plain, the embroidery on it is very ordinary, and there are no eye-catching features.
Ran Qiunian only glanced at it, and was pressed to the dresser to take care of her hair.
The hands of these two servants are very skillful, and they took care of Ran Qiunian's hair in three or two clicks, and the bun is excellent, fixed behind the head with a lacquered wooden hairpin, simple and generous.
They didn't give Ran Qiu Nian fat powder, so they sent them out of the house with no face.
"Miss, Accord is in front, there will be a maid to lead you over to worship Master, just follow, she will do whatever she says."
"But I'm ......," Ran Qiunian opened her mouth to say, but saw a young girl in a gray dress walk in from the gate of the courtyard.
