I suddenly realized that he was using the Tuna technique of Xishan Academy.

That kind of tuna secret technique has been circulating in Xichuan for hundreds of years, and the advanced tuna technique can be used in the water to control the boat, and even move forward with smaller planks, but this is already a very powerful Cheng dù of the tuna technique, before that banquet, we have seen Xiao Yusheng sailing on a boat like this, and the more ordinary Cheng dù can use the guò tuna technique to perceive the trembling of every flower and leaf in the surrounding more than ten zhang, or even farther places, and the wriggling in each person's five organs.

Now he looks like this, it seems that he is perceiving.

Could it be that there really are some dangerous people, or assassins in the shadows?

The other people around may not know about the Tuna Technique, but their thoughts are naturally similar to mine, and they are all very vigilant, Du Yan and the others have even pulled out some of the knives in their hands, and in the night, the cold light is dazzling.

The whole town, the street, was as quiet as if it had fallen into a deep sleep, and only us were nervous in the quiet of the night.

However, after a long while, Xiao Yusheng did not move at all.

I couldn't help but frown, and was about to lean over and ask him what he felt, but he turned around first.

Everyone hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

He glanced at us, and Sven smiled, "It's okay." ”

"Are you alright?" Wen Fengxi frowned: "It's okay, you can watch there for a long time." ”

I immediately shook my head at him.

Fortunately, Xiao Yusheng didn't seem to care about his attitude, and said with a smile: "It's because the students are too vigilant, but it's not a big deal." Let everyone worry, it's rude. ”

His attitude was humble, but others had nothing to say, Liu Qinghan came out to play a round and said, "Forget it, it's okay." Everyone has been on the road for so long, and they have just arrived here, and it is inevitable that they will be nervous. Let's find a place to rest. ”

Everyone was not in the mood to continue, they all nodded, turned around and continued walking.

I glanced back, where Xiao Yusheng had been staring just now, the entire town had almost all the lights out at this moment, and I couldn't see anything clearly in the dark night, and I didn't know what kind of people and what kind of crisis lurked in the dark night, only the mountains in the distance showed a vague, hideous outline like a beast in the night, as if to swallow us all.

We quickly found an inn, washed up briefly, and were ready to go to bed.

The inn is different from the previous arrangement of the Yan family, naturally there is no kind of big room that is convenient for a family of three, so Pei Yuanxiu can only sleep in one by himself, and I will take Li'er to live in the one next to him.

I helped him put some things away, and before going to Li'er's room, I smiled at the door: "You go to bed early at night, and we have to get up early tomorrow." ”

He smiled, leaned over and whispered in my ear, "You're not here, of course I went to bed early." ”

“……”

I couldn't help but blush, spat him, and turned and walked out.

Such a remote town, although not as prosperous as Chengdu, Yangzhou and other big cities, but there is always a good thing is quiet, I hugged Li'er and covered the quilt, the whole world seemed to be only left with the sound of her gentle breathing in her arms, and nothing else could be heard.

In such silence, I quickly closed my eyes.

When I opened my eyes again, it was already dawn.

Everyone got up one after another, and the sound of the busy footsteps of the attendants up and down the corridor was also heard. I pulled the sleepy-eyed Li'er out of bed, freshened up quickly, and when I walked out, everyone was already sitting in the lobby on the first floor of the inn.

Pei Yuanxiu heard the footsteps, looked up at me, and said with a smile, "Did you sleep well?" ”

I leaned against the fence and smiled and nodded.

Then he looked at the people around him. Liu Qinghan, Wen Fengxi, and Wu Yanqiu sat at a table, and they all raised their heads calmly and nodded to me; There were only two of Pei Yuanxiu's tables, he and Yao Lao, but there were four pairs of dishes and chopsticks, naturally waiting for our mother and daughter; It was Xiao Yusheng, who was sitting alone at a table next to him, and smiled at me and said, "Miss, morning." ”

I slept well last night, and I don't know if anything happened at night, but everyone seemed to be quite calm, and Xiao Yusheng looked like nothing had happened, as if his action that caused everyone to be nervous last night was just an unintentional move.

I smiled at him and led Li'er downstairs with me.

As soon as we sat down, breakfast was served.

Soy milk fritters, these things are common breakfast for everyone, only I was afraid that Li'er would be uncomfortable if she ate too greasy earlier, so she ordered a bowl of Yangchun noodles, and after everyone snorted and finished eating, the store served tea again.

As soon as I lifted the lid of the tea bowl, I saw a bowl of maroon soup inside, and it was cold.

Pei Yuanxiu immediately frowned: "What's the matter?" Is this overnight tea? ”

Xiao Yusheng, who was at the next table, had already picked up the tea bowl and took a sip.

Pei Yuanxiu gave me a strange look, and I smiled and said, "This is actually overnight tea, but it's not bad, I don't believe you take a sip." ”

He frowned, and when he saw my demonstration, he seemed to pick up the tea bowl and take a sip, and drank the suspicious one, and immediately opened his eyes in surprise: "Hmm-"

"It tastes good."

"Is this—?"

"This is Eagle Tea, a specialty of Shudi." I gently stirred the tea soup with the lid of the tea bowl and said with a smile, "Unlike other teas, this kind of tea will not spoil even if it is left overnight, and the taste will be more fragrant." We ate fried food this morning, and drinking some tea like this will not hurt our stomachs. Right, boss? ”

The boss standing on the side was originally a little worried that Pei Yuanxiu would get angry, but at this time he seemed to be relieved, and said with a smile: "This lady is really knowledgeable, that's right, our family's is Eagle Tea." ”

Pei Yuanxiu lowered his head and took another sip, then smiled at me and nodded: "Well, it's really good." ”

"yes, yes." The boss seemed to offer treasures, and said with a waist: "This is our family's famous tea, which is picked by people in the morning, and it is dried at home, which is different from what is sold outside." Those passing guests, they don't want tea in the tea house, they only recognize our family's purchase. ”

"Really?" I smiled and said to Pei Yuanxiu, "Do you want us to buy some back?" ”

"Well, if you like to drink, buy some."

"Then, boss, prepare twenty pounds for us."

"Twenty pounds?" Pei Yuanxiu seemed to be taken aback: "Buy so much? ”

I smiled and said, "It's been more than half a year, so let's bring some gifts to Ruoshi and Zitong." ”

As soon as the words fell, Wen Fengxi and Wu Yanqiu at the adjacent table all turned their heads to look at me, only Liu Qinghan remained motionless, picked up the tea bowl and took another sip.

The boss also hurriedly agreed: "Yes, twenty catties is not much." There used to be a guest from the north who bought hundreds of catties as soon as he bought it. ”

Pei Yuanxiu said with a smile: "For those who do business, hundreds of catties is not much." ”

"People have said that they don't do business, they drink for their families."

We all laughed, and we didn't bother to distinguish the real from the fake, so we just ordered to go down, and the boss immediately went to prepare twenty catties of tea, and we let people pack the luggage. After everyone had breakfast, as soon as they left the inn, the convoy had already arrived at the door to pick them up.

It didn't take long to get in the car and arrive at the pier.

In the early morning, the river was still thick with mist, the fishing boats that had left early had returned, and the fishermen could be heard laughing loudly, the air was filled with the fishy smell of water and fish, intertwined, and the long and powerful trumpet sound of the boatmen on the dock, which made people feel a homely, almost mundane warmth.

On the other side, several huge ships stand in front of us like mountains.

We and Liu Qinghan only have one boat, and there is more than one waiting for Xiao Yusheng, obviously the destination of these ships is not just as simple as going inland and down the river.

As soon as he arrived at the dock, Yao Lao, who had been silent, immediately disappeared, I knew that he must have asked someone to inquire about Yan Qinghan's boat, and he had to know clearly that there was no Xue Muhua on their ship.

We rarely talked to him along the way, and we didn't know how to comfort him. In fact, up to now, there has been no news from the Yan family, and everyone can guess in their hearts that Xue Muhua must have been caught by Wei Zhengbang, but I am afraid that he has already followed their ship for a long time.

I sighed and held Li'er's little hand tighter.

When she looked down, her gaze was stunned, looking at the somewhat emaciated figure in front of her.

Liu Qinghan stood on the edge of the dock and was quietly looking down.

In the morning light, his back was very straight, and the hem of his blue clothes was blown by the river breeze, swaying slightly at his feet, as if his people were also trembling slightly. I subconsciously took a few steps closer, only to see many fishing boats docked below, and the nets that had been hung on the bow to dry reflected the sunlight, reflecting countless silver points of light, flickering like stars.

Having lived in a fishing village for so long, of course I already knew that those were fish scales that had not yet shaken off.

Countless caught fish are churning and fluttering in the bamboo baskets, and the scales of the broken fish are fluttering in the air, reflecting the sunlight and flashing countless points of light, and the vivid appearance is almost about to jump back into the river to continue to live freely.

When I saw this, I couldn't help but turn my head and look at him.

His expression seemed very calm, as if he had seen the most ordinary scene of eating and sleeping, and there was not even a sign of emotion, only when the mist of the wind swept the fishy smell on his face, he shook his sleeves and gently wiped his cheeks, and his fingertips were inevitably stained with the water.

He sniffed his fingertips and frowned subconsciously.

I didn't think about it, I turned around and walked away with Li'er.

At this time, Xiao Yusheng walked over, smiled at me, and said, "Miss, the student has left first." ”

“……”

I was stunned for a moment, and immediately felt a large shadow loom over me.

When I looked back, it was their boat, which had already approached.
