Chapter 182: Escape
When the four of us approached, they didn't say a word, and directly showed their tokens, which were the tokens of the Deepavali Pavilion.
After showing the token, one of them walked towards me and stretched out his hand to take Long Xuanling in my arms.
"Don't touch him!" I turned sideways and avoided his hand.
The man's brows froze, and there was a murderous look in his eyes.
"Few, this dragon king is violent, or let An Zhizhao stay on the other side, and then talk about it." Gu Shaoting opened his mouth to intercede for me.
The men looked at each other, agreed, and began to jump into the water one by one, ready to swim to the surface of the sea beyond the miasma.
We've swam once before, and we're familiar with it this time, and there's a big wooden boat moored in the sea outside, and the squires get on board before us, and when we get on the boat, I feel like I'm being watched.
Their eyes didn't stop at me all the time, but they always felt like they were thorns in the back.
A few of us went into the cabin to rest, and the four of us were in the bow.
"Dead, all dead, all dead." Du Cheng couldn't stop talking to himself.
"It's us late." Gu Shaoting said and patted Du Cheng's shoulder, which was regarded as appeasing him.
Du Cheng shook his head: "It's not your fault, a few of us have to follow to the island, but the most innocent one who died is Old Man Wei." ”
"yes, in the end, he didn't know what happened to his son." Gu Shaoting leaned on the wooden board on one side and said leisurely.
Du Cheng suddenly rushed to the stern of the boat and shouted at the demon island: "Old man! Your sons didn't go to Demon Island at all, nor did they drown in this sea, don't worry, they won't become ghouls, they should have been reincarnated a long time ago! ”
After Du Cheng finished shouting, he knelt down again and bowed to the demon island three times.
Gu Shaoting and I looked at him suspiciously, since Du Cheng knew it early on, why didn't he say it, if he said it, then the old man would not go to the island.
After Du Cheng bowed, he turned around lonely, saw that there were doubts in our eyes, and finally told the secret that had been accumulated in our hearts for a long time.
Du Cheng said that seven years ago, the two sons of Old Man Wei were indeed preparing to go to sea, and they did not go to sea to fish, but to look for treasures on Demon Island.
At that time, it was actually the old three who proposed to go to the island to find the treasure!
It's just that a few days before departure, Du Kui suddenly didn't plan to bring Old Man Wei's two sons, thinking that they were people with foreign surnames, and there were a lot of young men in the village, so there was no need to take the two of them with him.
However, the two sons of the old man Wei were short-tempered, and when he heard that he didn't plan to take them there, he moved with Du Kui's group of people, and the result can be imagined, two fists are hard to beat with four hands, and Du Kui has many people, and he accidentally killed the two sons of the old man Wei.
A group of them also lied that the two boys of the Wei family had gone to sea, but in fact, the bodies had already been quietly buried on the barren mountains in the village.
"However, after they died, our group did not dare to go to sea because of their weak hearts, and later they even made trouble with the ghouls, and the matter has been put on hold." After Du Cheng finished speaking, he seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
This matter, to him, was like a big stone, which kept pressing on Du Cheng's chest, making him breathless.
And after hearing him say this, Gu Shaoting and I fell into silence.
I thought of the girl who was given by Shen Hai to the two sons of the Wei family to marry her, she died the most wronged among these people, if someone in this group was willing to tell the truth, maybe she wouldn't have to die.
"I really didn't want to hurt anyone, I wanted to say it several times, but Brother Da Kui said that if this matter was revealed, he would not be polite to us." Du Cheng said, his eyes were red, he was from this village, his parents were old, and he was worried that after he told the truth, Du Kui would take revenge on his parents.
"If it's done, there's no excuse for that." Liu Yusheng glanced at Du Cheng and said indifferently.
Du Cheng lowered his head, nodded slightly, and muttered to himself: "Yes, no matter what, I was wrong." ”
In the cabin, no one spoke anymore, Liu Yusheng closed his eyes and rested, while Gu Shaoting looked into my arms, with a somewhat complicated look on his face.
I looked at Shaoting's expression and knew that he had something to say to me, so I deliberately moved a few steps in the direction of the stern.
Gu Shaoting also immediately followed, and asked in a deep voice in my ear, "What are you going to do?" ”
"I think?" I paused, looked at the boiling waters, and had a plan in mind.
The people in the Deepavali Pavilion must be waiting on the other side, if I go ashore and then escape, I am afraid that there is no chance of victory, so the only way is to jump into the sea and swim away from here before the ship is about to dock.
It seemed risky, but I didn't have a choice.
"You want to?" Gu Shaoting also seemed to understand my thoughts, and immediately shook his head: "Down here, there are ghouls, have you forgotten?" ”
"Those people may be even more difficult to deal with than the ghouls." As I spoke, I noticed that the guards at the bow of the ship were quietly observing the situation on our side.
Gu Shaoting and I could only stop talking, but they didn't seem to be at ease, two of them had already walked to the cabin and sat opposite us, they didn't shy away from staring at us.
Time has also passed little by little in this suffocating "surveillance".
The closer we got to the shore, the faster my heart beats, and I don't know if I'll get out, but I know I have to.
Counting the time, it seemed to be almost over, and with the sky above me already clouded, I knew my chance had come.
Taking advantage of the fact that the eyes of the two squires were not focused on me, I stood up sharply and jumped towards the sea beyond the stern without hesitation.
The moment I jumped into the water, I heard two more "poofs", presumably the two Dark Squires jumped into the water with me immediately.
I could only rivete my strength and randomly choose the right side to dive, and Long Xuanling in my arms still had his eyes closed, but he spit out bubbles in his mouth.
He is a dragon king, and he should not be afraid of water.
Just as I was thinking, a pair of hands grabbed my ankles, and I immediately turned my head sideways, looked behind me, and saw that it was a dark servant dressed in black, so I raised my other foot without hesitation and kicked it in the face.
I used all my strength, so after he was kicked by me, he let go of my ankle, but another dark servant immediately swam up and raised his hand to snatch Long Xuanling in my arms.
