After a meal, Chen Hui found an upper room and settled in the flower clothes. Hua Yiyi's trip across the sea and different continents was very smooth, except for a few unbearable days at sea, but at the end of the first time on the sea, this visitor from another continent met the most eccentric inn on this continent, which can be said to be a good place to eat, drink and stay. His adventure is to defeat the most powerful warriors of all platoons on this continent. In a sense, this is indeed consistent with the rumors of the year, a peerless master from the other side of the dark sea, to defeat the strong man of the Central Plains martial arts. This was preached three years ago and even now, and it is not known how it began.

What was originally a great event in the eyes of many people has started like this. Chen Hui is not worried at all, he is nosy and a good man, but looking at this eccentric man who has to be blindfolded even when he sleeps, he thinks, how much storm can one person set off? And Hua Jiaoyi does not have that kind of arrogant and evil murderous aura on his body. Some are just sharp.

Even if the martial artists of the entire Central Plains and the entire continent are defeated by this person, what can they do? Thinking about it like this, Chen Hui felt that there seemed to be no need to care about such a thing. The rivers and lakes have never lacked the first in the world, Chen Hui doesn't know how strong Hua Yiyi's strength is, but it is certain that in the realm, it is indeed far stronger than himself, because the strength of the extreme intention is definitely not comparable to the realm of Ye. But in this land, there is more than one strong person with extreme will. He has absolute confidence in the warriors of the Central Plains.

But scholars will think more. He didn't know the history of that year, but his father Shen Chaoya once said that the child who was taken away was the newborn child of the King of Chu, a baby. If the sea journey is seven months, the strong can survive, but how can a baby survive?

The ability to protect oneself is sometimes irrelevant to others, and a general who is capable of killing 10,000 people on the battlefield may not be able to take care of a baby waiting to be fed outside the battlefield, and it is at sea for nearly seven months in strong winds and waves. What's more, the people in the legend are most likely misled by the most dramatic things in the legend, seeing what they want to see and ignoring what is really worth noting.

How could a legendary powerhouse who had crossed the dark sea and even entered the realm of true martial arts reach the shore on the day of the destruction of the Chu State? Why did you take away a child of the Chu State? The two continents have been cut off for thousands of years, and he came to this continent to spend so much energy just to take a child?

The Feng family's wind god blood is naturally strong, but how can a strong man who has entered the realm of true martial arts do this? What's more, it is impossible to predict the future in a few months. At least not so precisely.

Maybe the legend is true, but maybe this true legend is just a play played by the boatman. In this legend, the ferryman came from the other side of the dark sea for a baby, like a god descending from the sky, in the stunned eyes of the Qin army and the Chu army, he took the child and drifted away, leaving the last bit of blood and hope for the Chu country, this should be a very beautiful and very popular story.

But scholars never believed in such legends.

A long time ago, when he told a story to Gongyi Liuli in the General's Mansion to lull her to sleep, he was just a child at that time, but he had thought about all the unreasonable and real possibilities in this legend. In his reasoning, in this story, the boatman had already come to this continent. Then he saw that Qin and Chu were at war, and the state of Chu was gradually defeated, but the state of Chu ruled this continent for hundreds of years, and the people's aspirations, in addition to the strength of the country itself, the invisible influence on the entire continent was also very strong, he was a lonely warrior, with the strength of the sky, but after all, he came from another continent, and he had ambitions for this continent without any power, but he could only wait for the opportunity, and he hibernated for a long time, and finally he waited for an opportunity.

In the final battle of the battle between Qin and Chu, he appeared out of nowhere, creating the illusion of coming from the other side of the dark sea, and then he took the child of the king of Chu. took away the last bloodline of the royal family of Chu State in full view of everyone. Another legend was left behind, a legend about the Avengers. This legend itself is also dormant, he had heard rumors a few years ago that there would be a peerless swordsman on the other side of the Dark Sea, who would defeat all the strong with the blood of the king, and he had sent people from the Heavenly Machine Pavilion to search for the source of this rumor. But nothing was found.

But he was sure of one thing, and it was all a conspiracy. On the surface, it is a conspiracy of the Chu State against the Empire, but it may also have nothing to do with the Chu State at all, but another more mysterious force, using the reputation of the Chu State to try to bring down the Empire. It would be more appropriate if this rumor had been a few years earlier, because time is the enemy of any rumor. Once too much time passes, the rule of the Qin State will become more and more stable, and the influence left by the Chu State will become weaker and weaker, and the scholar has also thought about what kind of reason made that person have to wait for so many years, in fact, when he was seventeen or eighteen years old, that is, more than ten years ago, it should be the best opportunity. And at that time, it was the time when the contradictions between the empire and the rivers and lakes were the deepest. But there was no news of this rumor at that time. It was only in the last few years that it began. What is the answer between this, the scholar was suddenly inspired to understand what was going on after seeing the flowers.

That is the heir of the boat ferryman, and he must inherit his martial arts before he can appear, otherwise the avenger who is too weak seems to be a joke for this Jianghu and for the Great Qin Empire. And cultivating such a martial art, even if it is a genius like Ning Wuxie and the shopkeeper, when he is seventeen or eighteen years old, I am afraid that he can only reach the peak of Ye Zhijing at most. So it's not that the boat ferryman doesn't want to send his heirs to this continent earlier, but that it takes him thirty years to teach an extremely strong person in the shortest time.

Perhaps a few years ago, he sensed that his apprentice was about to break through, so he came to this continent again and began to build momentum, moving out the rumors of the dark sea again. creates an atmosphere, this rumor has intensified over the years, but the arrival of the avenger from the dark sea has never been seen, which is naturally a means.

In the end, the visitor from the other side of the dark sea finally came to this continent, and it was rumored that this visitor must be the blood of the emperor of Chu, but the scholar believed that this was all fake. The infant of the state of Chu may have been killed as early as after the boatman disappeared from everyone's sight. And this guest from the other side of the dark sea with the name of revenge is not the royal family of Chu State at all.

All of this is just a conspiracy to borrow chickens and lay eggs.

Even, in the scholar's opinion, there is a bolder assumption, he has found the shopkeeper at the moment, that is, to talk about these things.

At night, there is a huge bright moon in the shallows of the Anhai Sea, and between the bright moon of the sea, under the tide and waves. The scholar and Chen Hui walked slowly, and they were already far away from the inn.

"Mr. came out of me so late, but he wanted to tell me about Brother Hua." Chen Hui said.

"Indeed, the feeling that Hua Yiyi gives me is very honest, and there is something wrong with this." Chen went straight to the point, and the scholar was also straightforward.

"What's wrong?" Chen asked back.

"Shopkeeper, you have also heard the legend about the other side of the dark sea, how did you feel when you heard this legend?" The scholar asked lightly.

The sea breeze is a little cold. Chen Hui lowered his head and thought for a while, he said: "I once traveled to the rivers and lakes for a year as a non-shopkeeper, and my favorite place is to go to teahouses and inns, and I have heard these legends, and later after recruiting the cook, the cook told this legend to the other side. If you talk about feelings, it is probably that the boatman is very strong, and what he does is very strange. It will make people can't help but wonder if the royal bloodline of the Chu State that was taken away will take revenge on the empire with the powerful forces on the other side of the dark sea and a shocking martial arts. ”

The scholar nodded and said, "I think so too." This legend looks like a legend, a powerful warrior, the tragedy of the loss of the country, and the gimmick of the avenger. But shopkeeper, what I'm going to talk about next is what you think is a conspiracy theory. ”

"I want to hear about it." For the scholar's words, even if Chen Hui thinks it is a conspiracy theory, he will also think that it is very necessary.

"The other side of the dark sea, maybe it doesn't exist."

The scholar's words were like thunder.

Chen Hui was silent for a moment, and began to think in the direction of this statement. But I still don't have a clue to understand this sentence.

"It's just a guess on my part, and it's less than 30 percent likely." Looking at the shopkeeper with a puzzled face, the scholar began to say slowly:

"The other side of the dark sea is actually just a cover to hide from the empire, because the empire will not treat a baby of the royal family of the Chu State...... Persistent to explore the vastness of the Dark Sea, whether there will be another continent at the end of the Dark Sea, has always been controversial, but the cause of the controversy is because no one has ever really seen that continent. ”

Chen replied, "What about the boatman?" ”

The scholar said: "The boatman just appeared by chance, and he didn't say a word in the rumors, but why did everyone conclude that he came from the other side of the dark sea?" Maybe it's just that people just saw him facing this continent, coming from a far away, but this ...... Nothing seems to be said. ”

It is very difficult to reason about the rumors of thirty years ago, but what the scholar said at this moment, Chen Hui could not refute.

"Sir, he just deliberately wanted to make people think that he was from the other side of the Dark Sea, and the rumors about the other side of the Dark Sea a few years ago should have been spread by the boatman himself?" Chen Hui followed this line of thought, and slowly thought of these things that the scholar had thought of a long time ago.

"That's right. Shopkeeper, if I want you to cross the Hades Arm or the Dusk Desert without a single drop of food, you might be able to do it? The scholar asked a seemingly unrelated question.

"Of course it can be done." Chen Hui replied in the affirmative.

"But it's going to be hard." Then he added.

"What if you were to take a newborn baby with you? And if you want this baby to live, you can do it? The scholar asked again.

"It's impossible." Chenhui's answer was still very affirmative.

"Therefore, if the boatman on the other side of the dark sea takes a baby and wants to take him across the dark sea, according to Hua Yiyi, it is a seven-month sea journey, even if the real martial arts are strong, it will take a long time to make the wooden boat travel a hundred feet in an instant, and there is no milk on the sea." The scholar said.

Chen Hui suddenly.

"In this world, don't say that the true martial arts are strong, even in the vast realm that Ye still assumes, it is absolutely impossible to live in the turbulent dark sea with a newborn baby. So why did the ferryman do this extra thing? Save a baby who has nothing to do with you, but you have to take the child to death? The scholar continued.

"That brother Hua is actually ......" Chen Hui couldn't believe it.

"Hua Yiyi should have something to do with the ferryman, but he will not be the royal family of the Chu State, the royal family of the Chu State has long been dead, but when he shows that he is from the other side of the dark sea, and proves himself with martial arts that have never been seen in the entire Central Plains or even the mainland, he will be regarded by everyone as the royal family of the Chu State. As for whether that is the original intention of the flower, I don't know. The scholar's words left another suspense.

Chen Hui realized at this moment that Mr. was really smart, and he judged so many things just by looking at Hua Yiyi and hearing about that legend.

"But sir, that doesn't mean that there is no other side of the dark sea." Chen Hui said.

"It's just a bold guess. Because the saying on the other side of the dark sea is a good way to hide the eyes and ears of the world and cut off the world's desire to search, it has no other meaning. If the Dark Sea is so far away from the mainland, unless it really can't survive there, I won't spend more than a year traveling back and forth to such a place. ”

"And if this guess is correct, then the honesty shown by your brother Hua is subject to negotiation." The scholar sneered.

Chen sighed back, "It seems that it is really difficult for Sir to trust others. ”

The scholar said, "This is my way of life. Even if you say the wrong thing, I'll know. ”

"Haha, I'm probably going to be wrong, but for me, whether that sentence is wrong or right, as long as it is said to you, it must be the truth I know." Chen Hui smiled.

"So, although my account office will not calculate the money for wine and food for you, I will at least tell you what things may deceive you. In this way, I will do my duty. ”

Then the scholar said: "But these things have nothing to do with us, and I have no evidence, maybe there is really a side of the dark sea, and there are really people who are willing to take a wooden boat to spend so long crossing the dark sea." But in short, this matter will not be as simple as legend. Because I really can't think of how that Chu Emperor's child can live. And if he doesn't survive, then what's the point of the ferryman's move? Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if the baby survives, then what does the ferryman want him to do? ”

"It's a complicated thing." Chen Hui can only summarize it like this.

"Just wait and see, shopkeeper, I have to tell you that any of the nine major factions is far less powerful than the empire, both in terms of power and the number of masters. In addition to the four generals of the Emperor Star and the Dragon General, there should be other masters in the empire, not to mention the power, and this legend of the ferryman, no matter what the truth is, will definitely be related to the empire, and it will definitely involve the Chu State, and the attitude of the empire towards the Chu State will never change. You are already a wanted criminal with a reward of 100,000 taels of gold, but now the empire is not chasing you, just because Xiang Wu and I have reached an agreement, if you are involved in the affairs of the Chu State, this agreement will naturally be nullified. In the face of the dragon generals, and even the killers of the dragon battalion of the Divine Soldiers, you have no chance of winning. The scholar looked solemn.

Chen thought about it for a while, nodded and said, "I listen to Mr. for these things." ”

But the scholar then said, "You and the Demon Sect Master, but you are very close? ”

Chen Hui nodded.

"Alas, the shopkeeper, Sect Master Chen and you are from the same origin, I can't say anything, if I can say that you can stand by and watch, you will not be the shopkeeper. But the purpose of the Xingchen Sect has always been to restore the Chu State, and apart from the Xingchen Sect, it is unknown whether there were other forces in the Chu State back then. And what kind of actions these forces will make in the end in order to fight against the empire, and whether their actions will be crazy, I don't know, as for whether this flower and the forces behind him will add some more chaos, it is even more unclear. I only hope that if you want to help Sect Master Chen in the future, you must be cautious. Otherwise, the inn may be in a state of no return. ”

The scholar said this, Chen Hui frowned, and then sighed: "Sir, it's rare that we are so idle, come out to play, it seems that we can't ask Mr. about these things in the future, Mr. has thought too deeply." ”

The scholar also found that what he said today seemed to spoil the atmosphere, and he sneered: "Sometimes I envy you, if you can solve the things that can be solved by the wind and sand, you will definitely not rely on your brains." ”

Chen Hui said, "I believe in Ling." ”

This sentence is a little inexplicable, even the scholar did not turn around.

Only Chen Hui himself knew that the Demon Sect Sect Master, who could almost exhaust himself to death for the sake of the people of Qinzhou, would definitely not make crazy and dangerous moves to restore the Chu State.

There is also an agreement between them.

As for Hua Yiyi, Chen thought about it and simply regarded him as an outsider who challenged the Central Plains martial arts, but he was a shopkeeper.

He was hospitable and charged a fair fee.
