Chapter 424: Confused

After a brief analysis, Cheng Ziyu quickly calmed down.

The other party is not trying to kill people, not to kidnap, probably not too bad, right?

The ferry boat had already docked the medium-sized boat, Cheng Ziyu took a closer look again, and found that it was not like the previous Wanjia boat, there was no obvious mark or flag on this boat, and there was no reason to see the origin.

The hull is narrow, elongated, and has a sharp nose, which should not be slow to sail. It is not as spacious as a cargo ship, nor is it like a merchant ship with multiple cabins, the hull looks new, and the decoration is gorgeous, carved beams and paintings, more like a tour ship of dignitaries. In this kind of cargo terminal, it seems out of place.

The man standing in the middle of the side of the ship, well-dressed, deep-eyed, with two beards, and in his forties, should be a man who can call the shots, probably a steward.

The man was also staring at Cheng Ziyu up and down at this moment.

The gaze is very direct, although it is not obscene, but it is a little rude.

Cheng Ziyu carefully distinguished, and what made her most fortunate was that the other party didn't seem to have bad intentions.

Sure enough, in the next moment, the steward had already opened his mouth and scolded angrily at the gang of guys with firecrackers in the small boats around him.

"What are you doing? Don't put the guy away yet. When the distinguished guests arrived, you were so lazy? The master ordered to invite the county lord to drink tea, you cubs, are you going to frighten the county lord? What about Liu Da? Take the penalty yourself! ”

The man smiled and bowed.

"The county lord can't help it, they are all rough people, they speak and do things straightforwardly, and they don't know how to be polite, don't be surprised."

Sure enough, it came at her, and I knew her identity.

Knowing that she is the county lord.

After arriving in Ningbo today, Cheng Ziyu thought that she had been obediently following Mrs. Lin, and nothing happened. Does this get noticed?

So did the other party pay attention to her from Jiaxing, or after arriving in Ningbo?

If you start with Jiaxing, it will be bad.

It is very likely to be Zhu Changan or Zhu Changjue.

But it's not right to think about it, she came out very secretly this time, and not many people know about it. Zhu Changan has been grounded, and he can't withstand any wind and waves, so it stands to reason that he won't. Zhu Changjue, will he be so well-informed? ……

Cheng Ziyu looked at it openly.

"Dare to ask this big brother, who is your master? The little girl came to Ningbo for the first time and had no acquaintances here, would you have recognized the wrong person? ”

"The county lord is polite. The county lord is dazzling, how can we admit our mistake? ”

The man threw a fist, and his speech and expression were polite.

But Cheng Ziyu noticed that although the fire guns in the hands of the gang were no longer facing her and turned towards the sea, they were not put away at all, and the sense of oppression was still there.

"I only do what I am told to do, and I just pass on words. My master has long admired the name of the county lord, and when he heard that you came to Ningbo, he wanted to fulfill the friendship of the landlord and invite the county lord to drink a cup of tea, that's all, there is no malice. ”

"Tea? There is a difference between men and women......"

"County Lord!" The man was a little impatient, and directly interrupted, "Please give face!" ”

Obviously, politeness is just hypocrisy, and it does not mean that the other party will really back down.

The air was noticeably colder.

Cool eyes shot from all directions.

The other party is menacing, and Xia Wei and Xia Wei are both the same.

Cheng Ziyu has five senses, she can feel the other party's imperativeness.

Who are these and what are they for?

Ningbo land boundaries to do the friendship of the landlord? Who else could it be?

Drink tea?

Hehe!

What else? Only obey your fate!

What if not? The big freighter was in the way, and no one knew that the three of them were sunk at the bottom of the sea.

Cheng Ziyu obediently followed the guide to the boat.

Xia Wei and Xia Liu held her tightly in the middle.

As soon as they stepped on the pedal, two girls stepped forward, said "offended", and stretched out their hands.

"Please forgive me, honorable guests, the master's rules, outsiders can't bring blades on the ship."

Xia Wei and the two glanced at each other and looked at Cheng Ziyu.

The latter nodded.

Xia Wei handed over the sword, Xia Liu pulled out the dagger, and when the two stretched out their hands, they subconsciously tried to test each other, and found that the other party's strength was not small, and the internal strength was not good, and they were not ordinary servants.

The two girls didn't mind, they came up and touched their waists again, took away Xia Wei's hidden weapons, and then put everything they had collected on a tray.

"When a few of them leave, we will return them later." The two bowed and withdrew.

"The breath is also calm, it's a practitioner." Xia Wei whispered softly to Cheng Ziyu.

"Sister, do you see who it is?" Xia Liu asked lightly, and Xia Wei shook her head.

Cheng Ziyu opened her mouth.

"They speak with a 'master', but just now they didn't use 'slaves' to call themselves, they used 'us'? Therefore, probably the people on this boat are not in the relationship between master and servant, but between the top and bottom. ”

Xia Wei and the two looked at each other, slightly relaxed.

"The girl is wise!" At the very least, this shows that it is not the worst possible scenario.

Perhaps, it's just some local organization.

When he stepped onto the deck, the steward was gone.

Everyone on the boat gave them great "respect", saluted in unison, and retreated to give way, with curiosity in their eyes, but no malice. And everyone was disciplined, and the pace was neat, neither talking to each other, nor looking around. After Cheng Ziyu walked over, they went back to each other again, as if nothing happened......

After a closer look, there were many people on the ship, all of them strong and powerful, and there were no goods or idle people, etc., so I thought that the previous judgment was good. This is not a cargo ship and a passenger ship, it should be a private vessel of some person or organization.

Later, a maid came up and led the three of them into the cabin.

"The master said, the scenery above is good, please go to the upper floor to sit."

I went up to the third floor before I got to the place.

Entering the inner cabin, it was even more splendid, several times more gorgeous than Gao Xi's ship that day.

It's not an exaggeration at all, it's crystal bright, and it's almost time to catch up with the palace.

Inlaid with gold, inlaid with jade, coral as a bonsai, pearls strung into a curtain, furnishings are antiques, calligraphy and paintings are from famous artists, and even a few load-bearing pillars are pasted with gold and carved paintings.

It's enough extravagance, but no matter how you look at it, it feels a little nondescript.

From the other party's courage, performance, configuration, to style and confidence, Cheng Ziyu became more and more sure that these people were only afraid of pirates, or subordinate pirates. At least, I'm afraid that I will have some entanglement with pirates.

She stopped on the stairs before entering the cabin.

The ship was moving, slowly moving away from the shore.

Although it is forbidden at sea, as long as it is not too far from the coastline, it is naturally unhindered.

The speed of the ship is not fast, and I think this ship is trying to get a safe distance from Mrs. Lin's cargo ship.

She looked over to the docks.

Mrs. Lin had already done her business, beckoned the ferry, and motioned to go to the cargo ship.

But the ferryboat had only been out for two or three feet before she was stopped by two small boats.

It was the boats that stopped Cheng Ziyu and them before.

The girl who had just beckoned them to the boat was also on the boat, she jumped from the boat to the ferry, saluted Mrs. Lin, and then pointed to the medium-sized boat where Cheng Ziyu and the others were.

Mrs. Lin had an obvious flicker when she heard this, and looked here with an anxious face.

Then she flicked her sleeves and grabbed the girl's chest and warned her. Several of her subordinates also pressed their hands on their weapons......

But the girl was not afraid at all, and she didn't know what to say, Mrs. Lin was very angry, and poked the man with her finger several times. Then Mrs. Lin turned around and motioned for the ferry boat to return to the dock.

As soon as Mrs. Lin came ashore, she ran away with her men......

"She's ...... Betrayed us? Seeing that Mrs. Lin and her people were getting farther and farther away, Xia Wei asked.

"It's not." Cheng Ziyu shook her head.

Mrs. Lin, she can be trusted.

She came out with Mrs. Lin, and Li Chun and Zhu Changzhe both knew that if something happened, Mrs. Lin would not be able to escape responsibility.

Therefore, it is reasonable for Mrs. Lin to ignore her in danger.

The biggest possibility should be that there is a huge disparity in the strength of the enemy and us, so I went to find someone for help, right?

After Mrs. Lin found out about the accident, she neither dared to make a statement, nor did she call the officers and soldiers, let alone bring someone to help her at the first time, which shows that the person who planned this matter is very powerful. Mrs. Lin didn't even try to negotiate, so most of them were coerced, right?

This should be the reason why she left in a hurry.

The other party is holding himself, what does he want the Lin family to do? Do you want silver? Or do you want the Cheng family to do something? Or do you force Mrs. Lin to help them do something?

"County Lord, please."

Cheng Ziyu was brought in a gorgeously furnished VIP room.

There are maids waiting, singers stroking the piano, clean hands, changing places, and even beds.

The room is as warm as spring, the charcoal stove has long been lit, and the faint incense has been burned.

The tea was brewed and steaming. Cheng Ziyu sniffed it and knew that it was the Big Buddha Longjing.

But no matter how fragrant and expensive the tea is, she doesn't dare to drink it.

In addition to tea, snacks are also available.

Eight dishes of various refreshments, all of which are also refined, fragrant.

Is this really inviting her to tea?

Cheng Ziyu and the three sat down.

A maid pushed the door in.

"The master said, the county lord came from afar, in order to show sincerity, this is a special meeting gift specially selected by the master for the county lord, and I hope the county lord likes it and smiles."

The maid put a rosewood box in front of Cheng Ziyu.

"The master said, the county master has worked hard in the boat, so it is better to rest first. If you don't like Longjing, we have other teas here, and the county lord doesn't need to be polite, just tell the maid. ”

"Your master invited me to tea, didn't he show up himself?"

Cheng Ziyu was confused. Dare to really let her sit here and drink tea? Listening to this girl's meaning, the guy who planned the incident had no intention of showing up at all.

"The county lord just enjoys, our master has already instructed the back kitchen to prepare the best Zhejiang dishes for you."

The maid didn't seem to hear what Cheng Ziyu asked at all, she didn't respond at all, she just talked to herself, and the gentle and polite smile on her face did not change:

"The dinner is mainly seafood, and if the county lord has something to eat and something to eat, he can just bring it up, and someone will bring the menu later."

"What? Your master still wants to keep me for dinner? Cheng Ziyu frowned and suppressed his anger.

"If the master wants to fulfill the friendship of the landlord, he naturally wants to keep food. The county lord doesn't have to be burdened, just enjoy the sea view, use the food, and take a nap when you are tired......" After the maid finished speaking, she withdrew without saying a word, leaving the three masters and servants to look at each other.

Xia Wei called "stay" several times in a row, but the other party still didn't hear it.

Cheng Ziyu opened the rosewood box.

"What a valuable gift!" She spoke faintly. Lying in the box was a box of pink pearls the size of a thumbnail, a total of sixteen. The color is soft, fluorescent, and most importantly, the beads are all the same size, round and flawless.

A single pink bead is rare, let alone sixteen identical ones. Not to mention the value, just this heart is very important, right?

Cheng Ziyu covered the box, and she couldn't understand the other party's path.

One moment soft, one moment hard, it seems to be stammering, the clear posture is very high, and the contradictions are revealed everywhere, which makes her heart anxious.

It's the same with the two maids.

Coupled with the faint sound of the piano at this moment, it is even more depressing and aggrieved.

"Stop playing! Get out! Cheng Ziyu's aura was cold and he snorted. Get me out! ”

The room full of minions was very obedient, and obediently went out, and closed the door.

Xia Wei and the two quickly got up and checked the entire room several times to confirm that there was no secret door and no place where people could peep.

"What should I do?"

"It's so weird, girl, what are they going to do? Leave us alone and leave us alone? You can't really just come up and eat and drink, right? The two maids were looking out the window.

"The key is that we don't dare to eat and drink!"

"Deliberately brought us to the sea, did you know that we had secret guards with us?" The dark guard, only this waterway does not come.

"Not necessarily, maybe it's to avoid rescue or pursuit, or it's ...... on board No, or maybe the sea is their nest. ”

"Kazekage, they don't know if we've been detained."

"Maybe. They probably won't show up until they're sure we're in trouble. I don't know if they will go to Mrs. Lin to verify it......"

"Hey, if there are few people on the other side, it's fine, we can still have an inside and outside cooperation. But just after a glance, I'm afraid there are hundreds of people on this ship! Do you see that? Almost all up and down are practitioners! If you want to take this ship, it is impossible without dozens of people. ”

"Don't think about that, don't you see that they even dare to detain the county lord? The fact that they have this confidence shows that they don't even pay attention to the officers and soldiers. With this guts, he is naturally not afraid. We're at sea, maybe somewhere, and they still have helpers! And they also have firearms, no matter how powerful our swords are, it will be difficult to resist the long-range attacks from all directions! ”

"I don't know how much power Mrs. Lin has in Ningbo, can she do something?"

"No matter how powerful she is, Ningbo is not her territory, I'm afraid she can't count on it."

"Then you say, what did she just run out of? Obviously in a hurry! ”

"I don't know!"

The two maids sighed and sighed in unison.

"If the male master knows, he should be in a hurry!" After Liu Er finished speaking, she subconsciously glanced at Cheng Ziyu. At this moment, Cheng Ziyu was lowering her eyes and pressing her head. The two maids thought she was unhappy and silenced at the same time. But Cheng Ziyu seemed to have caught something......

"The ship is stopped!"

Cheng Ziyu got up and stood at the window when she heard this.

By this time, their ship was nearly a hundred feet away from the dock. If there is really something wrong, this distance, even if it is an official ship, it is difficult to chase it! This ship is light, even if it is forbidden to the sea, playing pursuit, I'm afraid it's not so difficult to break through, right?

Thinking about it like this, the three of them became even more anxious.
