Chapter 222: My brother is a good person

On the fifteenth day of April, just after the hour, eight people came to the palace, and the soldiers guarding the door had received an order before, and did not even check the waist card, so they hurriedly opened the side door, and the eight people went out of the palace. It was the dead of night, the full moon was high, the streets were quiet, the sea breeze was blowing, and the rustle of leaves could be heard.

The eight people were Wang Hou and his party, including Xiaosha, who had changed their appearance. After a while, he came to the east city gate, the gate was closed, a few people didn't want to alarm the soldiers, Liu Hanyan pulled up, like a white crane, rose to a zhang in the air, and then tapped the green bricks of the city wall with his toes, and pulled up a zhang high, and he had reached the city wall three times in a row. Zhou Qingzhu, Li Zhixian, and Jin Minhui did the same, and the three of them also went up to the city wall.

The four people look at the world with light power, and there may be few matches, but they can't do it yet. Wang Hou pulled Liu Zhaohui and Zhuang Zhaoxue left and right, and also jumped on the city wall on tiptoe, turned around and jumped down, holding Xiaosha and jumping up again, but his feet slipped, and the two fell from the air of Erzhang, Xiaosha screamed, and was so frightened that he hugged Wang Hou with both hands.

In the air, Wang Hou did a somersault, and the two of them fell to the ground steadily, hearing the sound of someone talking, presumably the cry alarmed the soldiers defending the city, no longer playing tricks on Xiaosha, flew up the city wall, and whispered: "Hurry up!" Pulling Liu Zhaohui up, the three of them had already arrived outside the city. Liu Hanyan snorted coldly and flew down; Li Zhixian picked up Zhuang Zhaoxue and followed closely; Zhou Qingzhu and Jin Minhui are naturally not to be outdone and are inseparable. In the blink of an eye, eight men left the walls far behind.

Liu Hanyan caught up with Wang Hou and asked, "Nerd, what are you scaring Xiaosha for?" Wang Hou defended repeatedly: "How can there be, I thought Xiaosha was very light, but when I jumped up, I found that she was still very heavy, and a mistake in judgment caused her feet to slip." "Who are you fooling, you still don't give me Xiaosha?" Liu Hanyan stretched out her right arm to wrap her arms around Xiaosha, but heard her ask, "Sister Yan, am I really heavy?" ”

"Don't listen to stinky durian nonsense, you're not as heavy as me." Liu Hanyan exerted force under his feet and had already rushed to the front. This road is already sparsely populated, and it is even more empty at this time, eight people are moving forward quickly, about ten miles away, Wang Hou knew that the intersection where Chen Xiong was hiding not far ahead, immediately stopped Liu Hanyan, told Liu Zhaohui and everyone to wait here, found the intersection by himself, flew up to the top of the tree, walked out of the three miles along the path, and finally saw the thatched house.

Under the moonlight, the grass house stood quietly, as if telling something, the surroundings were so quiet that people were afraid, Wang Hou listened for a long time, knowing that there was no hidden stake nearby, standing on the top of the tree, suddenly there was a slight chill, he no longer dared to approach the grass house, I don't know if Chen Xiong is inside, let alone what mechanism he has set up. After hesitating for a moment, he broke off a branch, and the branch entered through the window with the sound of the swishing wind, and he didn't know what it hit, making a loud noise, which was very obvious in the night.

Wang Hou listened attentively, there was no movement in the house, guessing that there should be no one, otherwise he would be suddenly disturbed in the middle of the night, no matter how good his psychological quality was, he would also reflexively make a sound, and broke two branches and threw them into the house, but there was still no abnormality. Wang Hou concluded that Chen Xiong was not in the house, and he heard him last night that there were still two families in this small village, and it was estimated that there was no need to look for them, they must have moved to other places.

Immediately no longer hesitated, turned back to the main road, the eight people continued to hurry, a cup of tea to the fishing bay. The entire Yuwan Village was silent, Wang Hou's heart moved, and secretly said that Chen Xiong would transfer here and kill all the people in the village? Listening carefully, I vaguely heard the snoring and the child's murmuring, and secretly laughed at myself for worrying too much. Chen Xiong killed the three families because the village was located in a remote location and would not be discovered for a while, although there were only a dozen households in Yuwan Village, but the mermaid attracted everyone's attention, and if he did it, he would be exposed.

Xiaosha opened the door, and several mermaids rushed in, it had been discussed in advance, and it was not possible to light the lamp so as not to be discovered, Zhuang Zhaoxue took out a glowing thing from his pocket, which was the night pearl that Wang Hou brought out from Wang Qiaodong. When they boarded the ship at Changle Taiping Port, Zhuang Zhaoxue changed the appearance of Li Zhixian and Jin Minhui, and they saw this bead at that time, shining brightly. Zhuang Zhaoxue also told a few people about Suizhu's origin, and Jin Minhui sighed that the will of heaven was like this, otherwise, maybe Wang Hou and Liu Hanyan would not know each other.

Zhuang Zhaoxue covered it in her hands, emitting a faint light, so that she would not be discovered by people outside. Liu Hanyan laughed softly: "The prince is on the boat, if it is here, it will definitely come back to the spirit." Wang Hou remembered that because of this night pearl, he was targeted by the prince, but he was misunderstood by Yan'er and kicked the prince, and escaped from the Xiaolong soup bun breakfast restaurant in a hurry, and couldn't help laughing: "Yan'er, I knew this was the case, I gave you this night pearl at the beginning, and I also received a thousand taels of treasure money from you, which is really embarrassing." ”

Liu Zhaohui also remembered the scene at that time, and he and Zhao Xi heard Senior Sister Xue come back and say that a scholar had a night pearl on his body, which looked very much like the legendary detoxification bead, because the "war sea fog" needed such a treasure, so he wanted to buy it with three thousand taels of treasure money, but the scholar was unwilling to change hands, and now he lives in the inn under the Zheshan Mountain. So the four of them came to the inn, ready to add another 1,000 taels, buy the bead, but unexpectedly talked freely, but in the end it was sold for 1,000 taels, and thus also got acquainted with Wang Hou. It's just that just a year has passed, but Senior Brother Zhao has been classified into the loess...... Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh lightly.

Zhuang Zhaoxue was stunned for a moment and asked, "Senior brother, what are you sighing for?" "Alas, I think when I first met Brother Wang, the three of us still had Senior Brother Zhao, but now, Senior Brother Zhao ......" Zhuang Zhaoxue understood that he remembered Zhao Xi, and bowed his head and said nothing.

Seeing this, Wang Hou said: "Brother Liu, don't be sad, say some happy things, such as how to use the potion brewed in the Night Pearl to detoxify everyone on Jiuhua Mountain, and how to win the sailing competition...... Tell everyone about these things. "Yes, Brother Ah Hui, you can tell us something happy, okay?" Xiaosha said as he prepared to open the backyard door.

"Xiaosha, what are you doing?" Hearing Wang Hou's inquiry, Xiao Sha responded: "My brother likes to eat durian, I'll pick some for my brother." Wang Hou hurriedly said: "Don't expose the target in the house, to prevent Chen Xiong's ambush, we still don't know how many people he has, but the strength is definitely not weak, so wait until dawn...... Brother Liu, you tell them stories, and I'll go to the beach to see. ”

Liu Hanyan hurriedly said: "I'll go too." "No, it's easy to find out when there are too many people." Wang Hou refused without thinking, quietly opened the door, listened carefully, and went out sideways, closing the door with his backhand. If there is an ambush in the secret passage Chen Xiong, he will definitely be near the shore leading to the shore, and immediately take advantage of the cover of the trees to cautiously move forward.

However, the strange thing is that he was quiet along the way, letting him scatter his senses, how could he look at the six roads and listen to the eight directions, but he didn't find anything suspicious, and he secretly wondered in his heart: dawn is the time when the mermaid appears, why is there no one who sees the excitement? In fact, Wang Hou didn't know, it wasn't that no one came to see the excitement, but that Manraka issued an order that the mermaid was very fierce and should not be close to the fishing bay, otherwise she would be injured.

Therefore, some of the more than a dozen families in this fishing bay village live in the city like Xiao Sha Niang; Some close the doors and windows tightly and dare not go out; More people who want to come and see the excitement, because the city gate is very strict, can not come without permission, plus the mermaid only appeared in the morning a few times before, not only can not see anything in the dark, but only increase the danger, so everyone is ready to wait until dawn to gather here, to see the wonders, look for pearls, try their luck.

Wang Hou searched the shore and was already sure that there was no ambush here, and he was even more surprised: if this was in the Ming Dynasty, it might have been crowded with people long ago, could it be that the mermaid is really as legendary, so cruel that no one dares to come? Under a full moon, the sea rose a lot more than in the previous days, the sea was sprinkled with silver and white, shimmering waves, several fishing boats were moored on the shore, the wind was not strong, the sea rippled on the beach, making a slight noise, as if to talk to the fishing boats.

Wang Hou sat under a low tree on the shore, looked at the vision, remembered the flying head and the little fat man in his dream, took out the bamboo whistle from his pocket, put it to his lips, hesitated for a moment or put it away again: If you can really summon the little fat man, it is not suitable at this time, maybe the flying fish will scare the mermaid away.

Facing the sea, Wang Hou reorganized the ins and outs of the mermaid incident. Before the fleet set off for Champong, Zheng received a request from the Siamese envoy that Manraka had found a mermaid and hoped that Taisang would be allowed to come to Manraka with the ship. After arriving here, Tai Sang did not live in the palace, I don't know where he went, until yesterday afternoon, Yan'er and the others accidentally ran into them, and there was a dispute between the two sides, but fortunately he arrived in time to calm the conflict. He then tracks down Tay-san and accidentally discovers Chen Xiong, which further complicates the mermaid incident.

At this time, there is such silence all around, could it be that a bigger turmoil is brewing? A series of questions kept emerging in Wang Hou's mind: Why did the mermaid appear on the morning of the 16th? On the night he first arrived at the palace, the pearls that Prince Mahalla displayed were not ordinary pearls, they were really mermaid tears? Last night, I heard Zheng Zongbing say that there is no abnormality on the border of Manraka, indicating that Siam will not use force for the time being, but I overheard that the prince of Siam has already arranged it, just waiting for the results here, and take the next step, what kind of action will it be? Could it be that this sentence is also false?

Seeing the full moon falling and the sky suddenly darkening, Wang Hou knew that the sky was going to dawn soon, and all the results might be known before noon, so he stood up and returned to Xiaosha's house along the way. Inside the room, several people lay on the table and pillowed their foreheads with their hands; Only Zhuang Zhaoxue was entangled by Xiao Sha, still whispering something, so she heard Xiao Sha laugh and said: "Brother is so powerful, defeat the Yu gang leader of the United Gang, and also take people to Wenchang Pavilion, let go of Fan Boss and his subordinates, I have long said that my brother is a good person and will not kill people indiscriminately." ”
