Chapter Twenty-Seven: Visiting the Sea Market in the Late Night, the Shark Clan Looks for Ni Clothes
At Mo Fei's insistence, Yu Ye unbuttoned his shirt and saw that his shoulders were blue and black, which was indeed a sign of poisoning.
"I've said it's all right." Yu Ye gently pulled up the collar that had slipped to his shoulder, he didn't want Mo Fei to worry.
"Master, do you believe me?" Murphy took a deep breath.
"I'm sure you've learned a lot from Xiao Se." Yu Ye's pale face showed a slightly relaxed expression.
"Your left shoulder is poisoned, only by expelling the poisonous blood will it be good, I am going to use a knife now to cut the place where the poisonous blood gathers, it will hurt a little, you bear with it." Mo Fei took out a knife from the medicine bag, but he didn't dare to do it.
"If you don't do it again, Master is afraid that he will catch a cold." Yu Ye whispered, and Mo Fei laughed, she knew that the master was there to ease her nervousness.
She plucked up her courage, picked up the knife and cut a cut on Yu Ye's shoulder, black blood gushed out, and after the black blood flowed, Mo Fei took out the porcelain bottle that Xiao Se gave her, which contained hemostatic powder, and poured it on the master's wound, and then took out the white gauze and bandaged it gently, and finally tied a knot from the shoulder around the chest, no one taught her to bandage it, looking at the master who was wrapped like a zongzi, Mo Fei stuck out his tongue.
"Master, we will definitely be able to bring the piano back, don't worry, go to bed early." Yu Ye couldn't resist Mo Fei, and when facing her, he felt more like a person who was taken care of.
Seeing that Master was asleep, and Mo Fei was lying on the hay, the cold air on the ground was coming to her, and she curled up, and the moonlight shone into the room through the planks and fell on her face.
On the fifth watch, a figure appeared in the empty street, silently through the street, hurried to the attic of the Rakshasa Sea City, looked back at the moon hanging in the sky, and then disappeared between the dark floors.
The pitch-black attic was like a tomb, so creepy that Mo Fei could only tell the way to the seventh floor by the moonlight that shone into the floor and the memories of his first visit.
Despite the frightening she, she gritted her teeth and walked into the endless darkness, occasionally hearing a few animal-like howls echoing through the empty floors. Murphy tried to calm herself, she didn't want to make it to the eighth floor by mistake.
Finally reached the seventh floor, the gloomy building sent chills down her spine, and at the end of the corridor should be Elder Xuan Bing's shop, she silently walked forward slowly in her heart.
"One, two, three, four, five...... Seventeen Eighteen...... Forty-nine fifty "Walking to Elder Xuan Bing's shop exactly fifty steps, she had silently counted in her heart when she first came, looking at the dark door in front of her, Mo Fei stretched out his hand, about to break the terrifyingly quiet night.
Suddenly, the door opened, and a withered, powerful hand pulled the caught Murphy inside, and the building fell as quiet as before, as if nothing had happened.
Through a lamp, Mo Fei was startled by the wrinkled face in front of him, and when the light in the room came on, Mo Fei saw Elder Xuan Bing glaring at him.
"You little ghost, don't die, dare to enter this building before dawn, you are lucky not to be caught by her." Elder Xuan Bing didn't expect that the uninvited guest outside the house was actually Yu Ye's apprentice.
"Who is she?" Murphy asked curiously.
"What are you going to do?" Elder Xuan Bing didn't intend to answer Mo Fei's question, he asked angrily.
"I'm here to ask you to sell the Jiuxiao Peihuanqin to my master." Mo Fei looked at Elder Xuan Bing with a sincere attitude.
"I won't sell the piano to your master." Elder Xuan Bing's attitude was firm.
"Is it because of my master?" Murphy asked cautiously.
"I said you little ghost, why are you so nosy, the grievances of adults are not something you can resolve, and you will leave as soon as it is dawn, so that your master will never come to me again." Elder Xuan Bing turned his back and walked into the room.
"Elder Xuan Bing, I don't know what happened between you and my master, but it may be a misunderstanding, please, just sell the Jiuxiao Peihuanqin to my master, this qin is very important to him." Mo Fei followed him into the house, and she had thought before she came, even if she was stalking, she would talk about moving Elder Xuanbing.
"Little ghost, why do you care so much about your master?" Elder Xuan Bing asked impatiently when he saw that this child was pestering him.
"Everyone in this world, whether it is a god or a mortal, or a demon, has their own people who want to protect, no matter how difficult the predicament is, in front of the people who want to protect, they will go all out, and Master is the person I want to protect." Mo Fei answered Elder Xuan Bing's question seriously, but saw a sad look appear on the old face.
"That's enough," Elder Xuan Bing closed his eyes, the child's words hitting the softest part of his heart, "Are you really willing to do anything for your master?" He opened his eyes and looked at her, seeing that she was nodding firmly at him.
"Okay, you help me find someone, and if I find this person, I will give you this piano without receiving a penny." Mo Fei's eyes widened, unable to believe that there was such a good thing, and Elder Xuan Bing began to talk about the person he was looking for.
"Thirty years ago, when I first came to the Rakshasa Sea City, I could only survive with these hands because of the abolition of immortal power, but fortunately I learned alchemy, so I used the gold to buy a stall to do some business. One day at the end of the market, I saw a three- or four-year-old girl left alone in the hallway, holding a melted candy man in her hand, looking left and right with tears in her eyes, probably separated from her relatives, I didn't want to do much, I wanted to pack up the stall and leave.
As I walked past her, she suddenly grabbed me, and at that moment, I was moved by compassion and brought her back. I thought that her relatives would come to look for her the next day, but day after day, year after year, no one came to look for her, and I thought maybe it was providence, so I took her as my adopted daughter and named her Ni Shang. ”
Speaking of this, Elder Xuan Bing's face showed a look that Mo Fei had never seen before, his old face softened, and his cloudy eyes also exuded luster.
Elder Xuan Bing's story fascinated Mo Fei, and she desperately wanted to know what happened to Ni Shang.
"As Ni Shang grows bigger, she will help me close the stall and help me sell things. It wasn't until she was fourteen years old that she picked up a treasure by the sea, and I could tell at a glance that the bead in her hand was a shark bead. The mermaid beads are the crystallization of the tears of the merman when he cries, and the tears of the vast majority of the merman are fragile and mixed, and are worthless, but the tears left by the noble merman will be condensed into pearl-like treasures.
I took this shark pearl to the Rakshasa Sea Market to peddle, sure enough, this shark tribe is worth a lot of money, just when I went home full of joy, I found a few sharks waiting for me at home, when I learned that the shark pearl has been sold, they were furious and wanted to tie me into the sea, Ni Shang rushed out, took all the blame on himself, the merman let go of me, and took Ni Shang away. Since then, I have never seen her or heard from her. ”
Elder Xuan Bing's tone was desolate, and his rickety body was magnified by the lamp on the wall, as if an invisible pressure was bending his back.
"If you can find the neon dress, I will give you the Nine Heavens Ring Piano." Elder Xuanbing's conditions seemed simple, but it was not easy to find someone who had been missing for twenty years.
"Okay, I'll try, but your daughter was taken away by the merman, she should have been dragged into the sea, how can I find the merman's hiding place?" Murphy frowned.
"Shark men like Terran women, they are ugly and fierce, and they usually hide in shallow seashores and drag women close to the sea into the water. There is a shallow water area next to the Rakshasa Sea City, and it is often heard that a girl disappears when she passes by there, and everyone says that she was taken captive by the mermaids. "Over the years, Elder Xuan Bing has often gone there in order to find Ni Yi, but every time he finds nothing, he can't even see the figure of the merman, maybe they only show up to women.
"Elder Xuan Bing, take me to have a look."
Elder Xuan Bing led Mo Fei into the house and removed a moving container, behind which a door was hidden. In the dark, Elder Xuan Bing took a lantern and took Mo Fei down the steps, walking down this narrow corridor, and I don't know how long he walked, and suddenly the sound of the tide of the sea suddenly sounded in his ears.
Walking to the bottom of the corridor, Elder Xuan Bing opened a wooden door in front of him, and the door squeaked open, and Mo Fei was surprised to find that this was a secret passage from Rakshasa Sea City to the seaside.
"It's too late for you to regret it now." Elder Xuan Bing turned around and looked at the girl in front of him, his neon dress was the same age when he left him.
"I don't regret it." Mo Fei shook his head, Elder Xuan Bing couldn't help but admire her courage.
"Okay, follow this road, keep going forward, and come to a boulder that looks like an eagle's beak, which is the place where those girls have disappeared, and if there is anything you can't let go of before leaving, I will do my best to help you."
"My master has been infected with the poison of the demon world, and now lives in the Cloud Inn, if I don't return for ten days, please inform my master that you don't have to wait for me anymore." Mo Fei was still thinking about his master's injury at the moment.
Seeing that the girl in front of him was fearless of the impending danger, but was concerned about the safety of others, Elder Xuan Bing couldn't help but admire her a little in his heart, he nodded, and at the same time told Mo Fei to be cunning and cruel, and not to take it lightly. Mo Fei turned to leave, and after walking for a long time, she turned her head and could no longer see the lamp that Elder Xuan Bing was carrying.
The pre-dawn darkness shrouded the endless sea, and even the moon was blinded in its brilliance, and the heavens and the earth were joined together, stretching at the end of the sea. The sea made a low sound, and the waves rushed up again and again, crashing against the rocks on the shore, and the broken waves fell into the abyss of the sea, ready for a second raid.
The salty and cold sea breeze blew towards Mo Fei, she clasped her arms with her hands, and still strode forward, a huge rock that looked like an eagle's beak fell into view, and that was where Elder Xuan Bing said, Mo Fei quickened her pace.
Standing on the olecraspe, the cold sea water soaked her shoes and socks in a short time, and she looked around, but there was nothing in her ears except the sound of the tides of the sea. After a long time, the tension slowly disappeared with the glimmer of fish belly white in the east.
Last night, I had been remembering Jiuxiao Peihuanqin, I didn't sleep all night, and now I only felt a wave of sleepiness attacking, Mo Fei patted his cheek with the cold seawater, but he still couldn't stop the sleepiness, and he fell asleep by the rock unconsciously, she didn't know that there were two things with human heads and fish tails poking their heads out in the sea not far away, looking at her......
