At this time, a fisherman passed by with a fishing net and harpoon, and laughed loudly when he saw this: "He is the oldest boatman here and the most experienced in going to sea, no one can compare to him, we all respect and call him Jiang Lao Turtle, you also have to use this title to call him, otherwise, he will pretend to be deaf and can't hear!"

"Jiang Lao Turtle?" Wei Xiao said.

"Exactly!" the man smiled: "As the saying goes, the thousand-year-old king of 80,000 years of turtles, and his surname is Jiang, so we all call him Jiang Lao Turtle, Jiang Lao Turtle who lives into a fine life, you just shout with confidence, not only will he not be angry when he listens, but he will be happy!"

Then he shook himself and walked away.

Wei Xiao glanced at the old man with a big smoking gun: "Jiang Lao turtle?"

As soon as the hat on the old man's head was raised, he raised his eyes obliquely, glanced at him, and said in a hoarse voice, "What's the matter?"

Only then did Wei Xiao see the face of this strange old man, his face was wrinkled, the ravines were vertical and horizontal, and his face was black and swarthy, but he had two large pieces of white ringworm-like rust, and his face looked extremely old.

But his cloudy light purple eyes were extremely bright, and they were extremely slippery between turns, revealing a cunning meaning, which was not at all like a pair of old man's eyes.

Seeing this person's face, Wei Xiaocai sighed in his heart, the name Jiang Lao Turtle is simply a perfect match for this person!

This old man, who was called "Jiang Lao Turtle", really looked like he was alive and well.

"Jiang Laojiao, have you seen a person carrying a harpoon fishing net passing by here?" Wei Xiao said.

Jiang Lao Turtle knocked the cigarette gun on the ground at his feet: "Yes!"

"Where?" Wei Xiao hurriedly asked.

Jiang Laojiao turned his mouth in the direction of the passerby: "Didn't he go over there? He just talked to you, and you can see it naturally when you have long eyes." ”

Wei Xiao said: "It's not him, that person is younger than him, and he looks smart." ”

Jiang Lao Turtle slowly turned his head and faced Repulse Bay: "Seven out of ten people who live here carry spear fishing nets, I'm old, my eyes are dizzy, who are you talking about, I don't know!"

Wei Xiao said patiently: "That person is a seller of grilled fish, in addition to the harpoon fishing net on his shoulder, he also carries a pair of iron racks for grilled fish, called Xiao Qi Grilled Fish, presumably he is called Xiao Qi!"

"I don't know!" Jiang Lao Turtle said categorically: "Our fishermen living by the sea here usually have nothing to do except go to sea for fishing, so they give birth to babies at home every day, and there are seven or eight babies in every family, called Xiaoqi, just like the sea boats parked in this bay, there are too many to count!"

Speaking of which, Wei Xiao already understood that this Jiang Lao Turtle was deliberately covering for Xiao Qi.

"The old turtle is well-informed, and everything is right," he said quietly: "Then Wei Xiao still wants to ask the old turtle for something." ”

Jiang Lao Turtle didn't raise his head and said, "What's the matter?"

Wei Xiao said: "If the old turtle sees Xiao Qi who grills the fish, please tell him on behalf of Wei Xiao, Mingyue has a heart, and you are in Jiaojie, don't lose your heart because of a bead, this bead originally did not belong to him, Wei Xiao should find it." ”

Jiang Lao Turtle looked at the sea boats in the shallow bay, and said expressionlessly: "Tell me." ”

Wei Xiao followed his gaze and also looked at those sea ships.

I saw that among the large and small sea ships, there was a largest and most magnificent sea ship, which was divided into two layers, with three masts erected high, and a wide and strong hull, quietly moored in the shallow bay.

Jiang Lao's gaze was fixed on the big sea ship.

"Is it your ship?" Wei Xiao suddenly said and asked.

"Hmm. Jiang Lao Turtle replied, but in this voice, there was infinite pride.

His ship is the largest, smoothest, most flexible, and fastest sailing ship in Dongyao Town, and all the seafarers who come here to sea like to take his boat, although his ship is also the most expensive here.

"I'm going to go to sea on this boat, how much does it cost?" Wei Xiao asked.

"How many people?" Jiang Laogui took a puff of his cigarette pouch.

"Two people, a grass, a fox. Wei Xiao said.

At this moment, Wei Xiao's legs moved, and he looked down to see that a fluffy little fox rubbed over, and behind him, Clover and Bai Qianyu also ran over.

Bai Qianyu ran out of breath, deeply regretting that she had exercised too little before, and she was out of breath when she ran such a distance, she used to study physical education in college, she was a frequent visitor in the remedial study, and she often dreamed of the nightmare of suddenly taking the physical education exam. Especially the 800-meter run, which literally killed her.

Jiang Lao Turtle glanced at a few of them, and said without blinking: "Six hundred taels." ”

"What?!" Bai Qianyu held his waist and gasped: "So expensive?"

Jiang Lao Turtle said: "Two big ones are four hundred taels, and two small ones are two hundred taels." ”

"We need two hundred taels for a ferry ticket alone?" Bai Qianyu stretched out two fingers.

At the same time, she has already opened the conversion mode in her heart: one tael of silver is equivalent to 400 yuan, so two hundred taels of silver is equivalent to 80,000 yuan.

Just rely on Jiang Lao's broken ship?

"Don't underestimate my broken ship," as if to see through her thoughts, Jiang Laojiao said lightly: "The sea is windy and waves, and there are all kinds of monsters hidden on the bottom of the sea, and what kind of danger will be encountered on a long-distance voyage, it is even more unpredictable, my ship, since I was young, has followed me to carry passengers to sea, after decades, but every time I can turn the danger into a disaster, return safely, everyone calls it 'Daji ship', so the ticket is several times more expensive than others, and it is also very normal." ”

"If you are too expensive, go find another home, and the same. ”

Jiang Lao Turtle put on a posture of a strange commodity.

Bai Qianyu hesitated, looked at Wei Xiao, and whispered, "Wei Xiao, do we have so much silver now?"

Wei Xiao shook his head: "It's only three hundred taels." ”

——This silver is still the salary he received when he was the general of the Illusory Kingdom Heavenly Strategy, and he has spent it all the way to the present, and there is not much left.

Clover was very sensitive to hearing, and when she heard what they were whispering, she immediately stepped forward, pulled Wei Xiao and Bai Qianyu out, and said, "This one is simply too expensive, it's more ruthless than pirate robbery!

It deliberately shouted very loudly, so that the old turtle could hear it.

Who knew that its bargaining ability, but it was not good at all when it came to Jiang Lao Turtle, Jiang Lao Turtle's face did not change, squatting at the head of the bay and smoking his big smoking gun, while saying lightly: "The Abyss Sea, but it is known as the Abyss of Death, it is expensive, you can go to other houses to see!"

This ginger old turtle has really lived into a fine life, which is even more refined than the thousand-year-old king 80,000-year-old turtle.

The three leaves of the clover suddenly drooped down together.

Bai Qianyu secretly teased it: "You see that you have lived in vain for the past three thousand years, and you can't even fight an old turtle spirit." ”

"But......" Clover said with a bitter face, "the cruel words have been released, and it's a shame to go back now." ”

"I don't have that much money to go back," Wei Xiao smiled: "Let's go find an inn to rest for one night first, and then figure out a way tomorrow." He looked at Bai Qianyu: "By the way, didn't you always say that you want to taste the seafood in this Dongyao Town? Let's go find a seafood restaurant first, have a meal, and then have a good night's rest." ”

"How can that be done?" Bai Qianyu looked worried: "Originally, there is not much silver, plus the cost of food and housing, when will we be able to take the old turtle spirit's big sea boat to go to sea?"

"It's not enough, and it's not enough to save it," Wei Xiao still smiled: "It's better to let go of your arms today, enjoy it, and find a way tomorrow." ”

The two men said as they walked back to the road.

Beside him was a grass and a little fluffy fox.

Walking past a wooden house, turning a corner, seeing that Jiang Laoqiu and his Daji boat could no longer see the shadow, Wei Xiao suddenly put away his smile, hid behind the house, and brought Bai Qianyu to the back of the house with Clover and Little Fox.

"What's ......?" Bai Qianyu just asked two words, and Wei Xiao put a finger to his lips and made a silent gesture.

Shamrock and the little fox looked at him mysteriously and closed their mouths, but the three pairs of eyes stared curiously at his face.

Wei Xiao just picked a weed from the ground, put it in his mouth, leaned his back against the wall of the wooden house, clasped his arms with both hands, and looked idle.

He's waiting.

After a long time, there was a loud sound of water in Repulse Bay, and it seemed that someone had risen from the water, and then something seemed to have been unloaded on the ground.

Then came the sound of a voice.

Bai Qianyu, Shamrock, and Little Fox were even more curious, and the three of them pricked up their ears together at the back of the house to listen.

I only heard Jiang Lao's hoarse voice reprimand: "You kid, make trouble for me all day long! If it weren't for your deceased father's repeated advice that your brother died early, your Jian family would have left you with a single seedling, even if you drown in the water, I wouldn't bother to care about you!"

"Uncle Turtle, don't patronize me!" A young voice came: "The bottom of this water is so cold that people are dying, you have to be in a hurry, don't send them away quickly, I am shivering from the cold, my lips are blue, if I stay any longer, even I will die in the water, see how you explain to my father!"

Bai Qianyu was stunned when she heard it, this voice was not the fisherman who raised his throat and shouted, "Xiao Qi grilled fish, live fish is caught, fresh meat is tender and the fish belly is fat, delicious and inexpensive and delicious!", she wanted to poke her head out to take a look, but she was still afraid of startling the snake, so she had to hold back.

"Horn!" only to hear a loud sound, it seemed to be the sound of a cigarette stick buckled on his head, Jiang Lao Turtle said hatefully: "It's really a dog can't change eating, you can't change your problem of stealing pearls a thousand times, you don't have a long memory! The young man who came to look for pearls today, I think his cultivation is not shallow, if I hadn't stopped it for you, you would have planted it this time!"

Jian Qi touched his head and grinned: "Uncle Turtle, look, didn't you promise my dead father, if you save me once, our ancestors will thank you for eight lifetimes!"

Before he finished speaking, he only heard Jiang Laojiao say: "Don't talk nonsense! Save and save, it's still the old rule, according to the price of pearls, fifty-fifty shares!" stretched out his hand.

"This ......" Jian Qi laughed with him: "This bead is so big, it's worth a lot of money, I can't take out so much money at once, or Uncle Turtle, you can give me a few days, and wait until I get all the money......"

Jiang Lao Turtle glanced at him: "Wait for you to get it, you kid is slippery like a loach, this time let you run, I don't know when I will see you next time, why don't you take out the pearl first, bet it on me, and wait for my share, and then redeem it!"

"Old turtle uncle......" Jian Qi's flattering voice.

"My uncle has to settle accounts, not to mention that your father and I are just brothers who worship the son, bring it!" Jiang Lao Turtle's tone was unyielding.

"That'...... Uncle Turtle, you have to keep it for me, my bead is valuable...... "Jian Qi softened.

When Bai Qianyu heard this, he couldn't hold back anymore, and stepped out: "You give me back the beads!"

Jian Qi was pulling something out of her arms, when she saw Bai Qianyu, and then looked at Wei Xiao who followed behind her, she was suddenly frightened, and the beads in her hand fell to the ground, dripping and rolling.
