At this moment, Zuo Yuan does not have the slightest smell of insect poison on his body.

I should have found out a long time ago.

I followed him for seven days, and if he was a worm, why had I never smelled the poison on his body or near him at that time? Fighting him that night, his black sand alienation also happened suddenly, and I was shocked! Now that I think about it, is it the smell of insect poison in Zuo Yuan's body, or the smell of insect poison scattered around?

Or does he have a way of masking his own taste?

All kinds of questions came to my mind. But from Zuo Yuan's mouth, he must not get an answer. And the reason why he is here, I probably think of it.

I walked up to him, and he came to me, right in the middle of the road, and we met, and stopped at the same time.

"You're coming pretty fast." I looked at him.

Different from the anger that started before, Zuo Yuan now seems to have made some decisions. He pulled out a roll of yellowed vellum, fiddled with it in front of me, and then said to me, "You have won, and as you wish, I have brought a chart to Ugyen Island." ”

"It doesn't matter."

"Not important?" Zuo Yuan smiled, "Did I hear it wrong?" You wanted it so desperately, and now you say, it's not important? What do you think is more important now? ”

"Why you're here, that's more important." I asked.

He should have given me an answer to this question.

Zuo Yuan smiled and responded, "Hehe, it turns out that you are talking about this." Speaking of which, I guess I'm lucky. Originally, it was indeed a trouble to find you, but I just heard that something unpeaceful happened in this area. You're a troublemaker, so I thought I'd come over and have a look, maybe you'll be there? Look, you're really waiting for me here. From the tone of his voice, I didn't seem to feel that he had anything to do with what had happened before.

Like he really was just passing by.

I didn't continue to ask, but shifted the subject to the nautical charts in his hand, "I thought you should think about it for a few days before making a decision, but I didn't expect you to want it so quickly." However, this does not seem to be exactly the same as the conditions I mentioned earlier. ”

"Your conditions?" Zuo Yuan frowned, looking a little impatient.

"The boy's grandfather, he's the one I want to see more than a map."

"You think it's fake?"

"I don't know if it's true or not, but my conditions, you must meet."

Zuo Yuan scratched his head, he looked at me, his sickly gaze was very similar to the appearance of our first meeting, and then grabbed the drawing that had just fallen into my hand, "Okay, since that's the case, then take this thing back!" ”

"When will I see him?"

"I can't see it!"

"Why?"

Zuo Yuan raised his right hand, and the action of grabbing his head became more intense, "I said you saw it now, do you believe it?" ”

It's not quite a joke.

"What do you mean?"

"Seeing me is the same as seeing him, and if you want me to find him out now, I won't find him. But the route of Ugin Island is real, how the hell are you going to get that egg back to me? Give me a way I can solve it smoothly! ”

It was as if I had driven him insane.

It looks like he really can't find the man. As for the reason, I have to think carefully about what he meant by the phrase "you see it now". But in fact, seeing the boy's grandfather was not necessary. I need just 100% the right route to Ugin Island.

"In that case, I will no longer be difficult for you. Anyway, you and I are old acquaintances. ”

"Old acquaintance, that's right, one day you will die in my hands, our relationship, why do you embarrass me?" Zuo Yuan gladly accepted our relationship and asked me, "Say, what are the conditions for your replacement?" ”

"You, or the boy, or his grandfather, one of you must go with me to Ugyen Island, and when I find the man I want, I will return the egg to you." I responded.

"Hahaha......" Zuo Yuan laughed, without a trace of surprise on his face, and looked at my eyes and responded: "Actually, I guessed, this is not a problem, I originally planned to go with you, compared to your suspicion that the map is fake, I don't believe that you will easily return that egg to me." But if you go with me, you'll regret it. ”

"I'm thinking too much, doing anything is risky, and I'm not used to regretting it."

"Well, I like that. But I must ask again, is it your only condition that I go with you to Ugin Island? ”

"Yes."

"As long as you find the person you're looking for, I can get that egg?"

"I will not break my word."

"And what if you don't find the person you're looking for?"

"As long as you don't lie to me, I'll be able to find her when I get to Ugin Island."

"That's the kind of person you say you say? His name is ...... Cedric? "On the way Zuo Yuan led me to a trap, I mentioned to him the reason why I went to Ugin Island. For me, this is not an option to hide.

"Then it's none of your business." I responded.

"In that case, deal." Zuo Yuan stretched out his hand.

I looked at it, "There is no need to shake hands." When to go? I asked.

Zuo Yuan smiled, withdrew his hand, and looked at the sky, "Anyway, it's been a long time late, if you don't mind delaying one more day, I'll be waiting for you here tomorrow morning." ”

Zuo Yuan's side had a good history, and after he left, I walked around the neighborhood a few more times, but I didn't notice Mina's scent. She should be very jealous of the guy who hurt her last night, and once she fails, she immediately runs away and doesn't give the other party a chance.

But it became a knot in my heart.

The next day, Yao Qianwen and I returned to this place, and we didn't see Zuo Yuan, but the boy came to deliver the message. He was so hostile to me that before he said goodbye, he cursed me for being dead. Aside from this curse, he had not yet designated a port, and then I drove to the coastal area of Vietnam after about seven hours.

But strangely, I thought that Zuo Yuan would probably choose a place with fewer people to set off, but this place looks like a port for tourist ships to depart.

But what's even stranger is that it doesn't stop there.

"Oh my God, you're pretty handsome......" Yao Qianwen suddenly exclaimed inexplicably.

Following her gaze, there was a ship in her sight. It looks like a pirate ship of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, with dark tones, a dilapidated hull, and blood-stained canvas. Zuo Yuan was near the ship, waving to me.

Originally, my focus was on this ship, and my heart said Could it be that this guy is going to take this thing to send me to Ugin Island? I was worried if it would leak and sink along the way. But soon, a vague smell suddenly wafted into my nose and startled me!

The smell was yesterday's perfume......

But I'm not sure if it's a hallucination. Because the smell is fleeting, and no matter how closely I look for it, I can't touch it at all, as if everything is just my brain.

Does it smell like that?

Just when I was wondering, Zuo Yuan had already come to me, "What does this mean?" Suddenly standing still, have an opinion about my arrangement? ”

He said it like he was joking.

"Why the hell were you there yesterday?" The illusory smell once again aroused my vigilance.

"Yesterday? You seem to be concerned about this, how do you want me to answer? Zuo Yuan looked at me with a very curious gaze, and his eyes subconsciously drifted around.

From what I know about him, maybe he did just happen to be in that place and met me. But now that I've asked the question a second time, he should have sensed what I was feeling around me.

His expression just corresponded to my thoughts, so he really had nothing to do with yesterday's events.

"It's a bit of a smell that I don't really like." I responded.

Zuo Yuan sniffed, "The smell of the sea?" ”

I didn't want to continue the conversation with him, so I turned my eyes to the "pirate ship" and asked, "That thing, you arranged it?" ”

"yes, how's it going, isn't it beautiful?"

I laughed, "Are you kidding me?" ”

"Jokes? Why do you feel that? Zuo Yuan smiled coldly and responded: "But it doesn't matter what you think, as you said, except for taking you to Ugin Island, I will be in charge of the rest of the things." Since the rules are up to me, you have to follow them. ”

The word rules made me uncomfortable, and I always felt that there might be something wrong with that ship.

I didn't immediately reject Zuo Yuan's decision, and walked with him towards the boat.

The quaint and even dilapidated hull appeared more and more clearly in my eyes, it was not deliberately old, it can be seen that everything on the hull is the traces given by the years, this is an old ship with years. But why choose such a ship?

"Remember the story that kid told you?" When he got to the bottom of the boat, Zuo Yuan suddenly spoke.

I responded, "You mean, the story about the pirate ship breaking into the waters off Ugin Island?" ”

"That's right."

"So you're trying to say it's this ship?" I guess.

And then that's right.

Zuo Yuan nodded and walked up the stairs to the hull, "Although the story happened decades ago, this ship is also one of the treasures that the pirates once obtained. They were not the original owners of the ship. And, perhaps, only this ship can enter Ugin Island smoothly. ”

"What do you mean by that?" I walked behind Zuo Yuan and followed him to the deck.

To my surprise, there was no creaking as I imagined, and the hull of the boat seemed to be very firm, but when I stepped on it, there was an inexplicable cold that gradually crept up the human body along the soles of my feet. When I looked closely, nothing existed.

"You'll know when we're out to sea." Zuo Yuan smiled mysteriously.

"Why can't you say it now?" I asked.

Zuo Yuan turned his back to me and waved his finger slightly, "If you say it now, things will become boring." This is a surprise I gave you, but there is definitely more than that. ”

Looking at Zuo Yuan's back, the sentence he said to me yesterday, "Don't regret it", suddenly flashed in my mind.

What exactly did he arrange?

My gaze gradually moved down, and I saw the deck under my feet, and slowly crouched down, my hand slowly touching the deck.

"Shhh I took it back.

The coldness was substantial, not my delusion. It reminds me of one thing, when I first met "Mina" in the church dungeon after I broke away from my original identity, that "Mina" also had the same inexplicable chill on her body.

"Could it be that this ship ...... It's also a Mi family organ? ”

So, I had some guesses in my mind.
