Chapter 373: Borrowing
Everyone looked at Fang Du worriedly, trying to stop him from taking the risk alone. But Fang Dui knew very well in his heart that the river was full of wind and rain, and the small boat had sunk to the bottom of the river, and they had no second choice but to stay on this boat to save their lives. And this "stay" is also very knowledgeable. How the host should "stay" the guests, and how the guests should deal with themselves when they "stay", are all a contest.
Bai Pei urged, "Young Master Fang, it's not early, please come with me quickly! A few distinguished guests, I will entertain you well!" Her voice was so good, Fang Duan had never heard such a beautiful voice. It's just that although this voice is soft and delicate, what is revealed in it is Sen Ran's coldness. Bai Pei clapped his hands, and twelve servants in identical outfits rushed in with trays of fish, and abalone and shark fin were brought up like cabbage and tofu. The chef who wanted to cook was quite skilled, and he made twelve dishes, each of which was full of color and flavor, but put it in front of everyone, making them lose their appetite.
"Don't worry, I'll go back when I go, you wait for me!" Fang Du showed a "reassuring" smile at them, turned around and walked out with Bai Pei, at this moment, he had no choice.
This ship is so big, compared to the previous cargo ship, it looks more like a well-arranged palace. There are red oil-paper lanterns hanging on the outside of the hull, and even if the wind and waves are fierce, the hull of the ship only sways slightly with the waves.
Bai Pei's steps were as light as feathers on the ground, barely making any sound. Fang Du noticed that the shoes worn by the servants here seemed to be of special quality, and the bottom was made of sturdy white cloth layer by layer, which not only made their figures look tall and slender, but also allowed them to walk without making too much noise, which was a double win.
Every three or five steps in the corridor, a lantern also hangs, this lantern is not red, but a soft pale yellow. The sky outside had already darkened, but Fang Du felt that there might be something darker here than the night outside.
"Young Master Fang, please follow me!" Bai Pei led the way in front and led Fang Du up the stairs. The second floor of the cabin was pitch black, and Bai Pei did not stop here, but went up another staircase to reach the top floor of the entire large ship.
The sound of the wind and rain seems to be heard more clearly, and the sound of the rain hitting the roof of the boat makes people faintly uneasy. Fang Du had to reconstruct this person in his heart who had not yet met, what kind of person was it, who liked to be quiet, but put himself in the wind and rain?
"Young Master Fang, please come in!" Bai Pei stopped in front of the door of a room, but he didn't mean to go in. Fang Du glanced inside, the candle was lit but it was not very bright. He asked, "Bai Girl not going in?" Bai Pei smiled, but didn't shake his head, just pointed inside, motioning for Fang Du to go in. Fang Du stood in front of the door, took a deep breath, smoothed out the slight folds at the cuffs, and strode in.
A strange fragrance rushed straight to his head, and Fang Duan hurriedly held his breath. After a while, he didn't notice the phenomenon of qi and blood surging and chaotic heart, so he breathed a sigh of relief and raised his head to look around.
From the outside, it looks like it's the same as any other room, but when you come in, you find that the left and right rooms are open, and there is a lot of space. In front of Fang Dusk, there are layers of black curtains lowered, and layers of silver threads are woven on them, reflecting the candles on the bronze crane candlestick, like starlight shining in the sky.
A figure swayed behind the curtain, and the sound was drowned out by the sound of wind and rain, and Fang Duan couldn't hear it clearly. There was a cup of hot tea on the high tables set up on both sides, which should have been prepared for Fang Dui, he walked over and sat down, took a sip of the teacup, and sighed, "Good tea!"
"Fang Gongzi understands tea?" A voice came from behind the curtain, it was a woman, which was the same as Fang Dui guessed. Fang Du smiled, "I don't understand, I was born in the countryside, and having a full stomach is already the greatest luxury, where do I dare to think of such a good tea?" However, there is another truth I understand. ”
"Oh, what is it?"
"The quality of tea lies in the year, the rain, the people who pick it, the people who fry it, but also the utensils that are stored, the water in which the tea is cooked, and the craftsmanship of the tea cooks. These are all uncontrollable. But there is one thing, the person who invited me to tea is certain. The tea that good people invite me to eat is good tea, and the tea that bad people invite me to eat is naturally bad tea!"
Fang Dui's words, the woman behind the curtain couldn't stop laughing, and she didn't stop for a long time. Fang Du was puzzled and asked, "I don't know what's so ridiculous about this?" The woman laughed breathlessly, "You, are you praising me, praising me, praising me for being a good person?"
The other party knew his identity, and in Fang Duan's expectation, "If it's humorous, it's better to be disgusting!" I know that if I want to land safely, I just need to please you and let us stay on this big ship." ”
"This is the truth!" the other party seemed to be quite satisfied, "So I always tell Bai Pei that talking to smart people saves time and effort, then I won't go around in circles with Fang Gongzi!" Fang Duan suddenly interrupted her, "You want Jiulong Ding!"
"Huh?" the other party was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter, "Okay, okay, Fang Gongzi is so frank, it really saves me a lot of effort." Fang Duan said, "It's just that the Nine Dragons Ding is still a pile of fragments at this moment, if you want it, I'll let them send it immediately!"
Abandoned the ship and fled, they naturally carried the fragments of the Nine Dragons Ding with them. His Majesty was deaf and clear-sighted, knew the existence of Jiulongding, and also knew that Fang Duan had successfully obtained the juice of Meng Po's tears. But Fang Duan had to gamble, the news didn't leak out completely, and the person behind the curtain didn't know about the part of Meng Po's tears.
"I didn't say I wanted it now," the woman's voice grew more and more languid, "a pile of debris, and in my hands it's just a pile of garbage." Fang Gongzi, why don't we make a deal, I will help you repair the Nine Dragons Ding, in return, after the Nine Dragons Ding is restored to its original state, you will lend it to me for a day!"
This deal sounds like the other party is very profitable, and the other party does not want to snatch and occupy the Kowloon Ding, but only offers to borrow it for a day. This aroused Fang Duan's curiosity, "Legend has it that the Nine Dragons Ding has infinite divine power, I wonder what you want to do with it on this day?"
"Well, I can't tell you!" the other refused, "but I can assure you that I'm not an ambitious person, and I won't use it for anything that hurts anyone." Fang Duan didn't understand it even more, so he asked, "Have you figured out the origin of the Nine Dragon Ding?"
