Chapter Ninety-Seven: Mysterious Letterhead
The two followed the path Lin Yixian and they took, and came to another beach, where a three-masted ship had already left dozens of zhang away, and Lin Yixian was standing at the stern, looking this way.
Lu Linlang waved his hand and said goodbye to Lin Yixian. But Lin Yixian suddenly turned around and walked back into the cabin. Lin Yixian's abnormal behavior made Lu Linlang unable to find the north.
"Linlang, how do you say they know that Yixian has come to this island?" Li Tianqi looked at the big ship in the distance, thoughtful.
"Brother Apocalypse, I can't figure this out either. ”
"Do you say that the target of Peng Diao that night was one of the three of us who was chosen at random, or was it just for Yi Xian?" Li Tianqi flashed in his mind the scene of Peng Diao accurately grabbing Lin Yi Xian.
"This ...... Is there a connection?" Lu Linlang followed Li Tianqi's train of thought, and faintly felt that it was not a coincidence, and she also thought of the cries of the Peng Eagles in the sky just now, "Isn't it the ...... in this sky?"
Li Tianqi nodded, looked at her, and said, "I think it should be, it is this Peng Eagle, it found the trace of Yixian again, so it provided Lin Yifan with a direction, and he was able to find this place." Otherwise, the sea is vast, how can he know so precisely?"
"Could it be someone who reported the news?" Lu Linlang asked his own question.
Li Tianqi bowed his head slightly and said: "What you said is not impossible, maybe among us, oh no, Mr. Fan's group may have someone to inform him of our whereabouts at all times." ”
Lu Linlang exhaled and said, "Alas...... It's complicated. ”
"You reminded me, otherwise when we first set out from Wangniupo, Huo Duwei and others had caught up and said that they had received a tip-off, so tell me, does this just mean that someone is secretly spying on us? ”
Li Tianqi thought for a while, looked at Lu Linlang and suddenly asked again: "Linlang, is the person Huo Duwei has been tracking down?"
Ha? Lu Linlang gasped, she didn't expect Li Tianqi to suddenly think of her. She looked at Li Tianqi's piercing eyes, and no longer concealed it at the moment, nodded and said, "That's right." The gang and the Mother Thunder Toad have been chasing after me. ”
Sure enough, that's right! In Lianzhou City before, when he saw the soldiers in the salt factory increasing defense and locking down the city, the target was actually not himself, but Lu Linlang, a girl in purple! This incident can be heard from the questioning of Huo Duwei and the others who chased them by speedboat, if they just listed the incidents one by one, it was obviously not found, but when the scenes were linked, it could be known that Huo Duwei was chasing only one person, and that was her Lu Linlang. What is she hiding? Li Tianqi couldn't help but look at Lu Linlang again, this beautiful and moving Miaojiang woman.
"I've hidden something from you, too. Lu Linlang's beautiful eyes flashed with tears, "It's like you also hid something from me before." ”
"Linlang, we are in the same boat now, you and I have to trust each other. Can I trust you?"
Lu Linlang sighed and said solemnly: "Yes." ”
She didn't wait for Li Tianqi to speak, and continued: "I'll tell you the truth." That Huo Duwei actually came for a letter. As she spoke, she took a letter wrapped in tarpaulin from her sleeve.
"Is there any important letterhead that he wants to chase all the time?" Li Tianqi shook his head and said, "Don't read it, you can say it." ”
Lu Linlang put the letterhead back in his sleeve pocket and said, "The letterhead sent by the Son of Heaven of the Tang Dynasty to a certain person is stamped with a jade seal." ”
"Emperor, Emperor?" Li Tianqi shook his whole body, "Have you opened it?"
Lu Linlang shook his head and said, "I understand this rule, and I haven't opened it." ”
"But how do you know it's the emperor's letterhead?"
"Because the person I saved was sent by the palace, and he was badly injured and although I tried my best to save him, he still had no way to recover, and when he was dying, he handed this thing into my hands, and asked me to go to an organization to find a person and hand it over to him, which is related to the fate of the country. ”
"What kind of organization, who is it?" Li Tianqi's curiosity suddenly rose.
"The eldest grandson of the League of Assassins. ”
"The Assassin Alliance?"
"Brother Apocalypse, do ......you know the League of Assassins? Do you know him?"
Li Tianqi took out the gold seal badge from his arms, "Do you know what this is?"
Lu Linlang looked at this gold seal badge, and saw that the pattern on it was a pattern of a sword and a knife crossing, and the words "alligator" were also engraved below.
"The sword is unsheathed, and the sword is not stopped!" is the slogan of the League of Assassins. Brother Apocalypse, could it be that you are the eldest grandson Bozhong......"
"Linlang, what are you talking about, thinking too much. I'm not the eldest grandson. But he is the alligator hall master of the League of Assassins. ”
"Brother Tianqi, you help me find this eldest grandson Bozhong and give him this letter. Lu Linlang handed over the letterhead again.
"Everyone in the League of Assassins is face-covered, and it's hard to find a name just by name. But this letter is so important, and it's been a long time, isn't it?
"I don't know. It's just that since others can trust me, I'm going to do it. And I believe in you at the moment, Brother Apocalypse. ”
Li Tianqi took the letterhead wrapped in oilcloth, put it in his arms and said, "I have a bunch of things in my arms now, alas...... But since this is the case, I, Li Tianqi, must have done it for Sister Linlang and found this eldest grandson. ”
"By the way, who is that person, and where did Huo Duwei and his gang get the news to track you down?"
Lu Linlang shook his head, "I don't know who this person is, I only saw the 'X' sign on his masked scarf, and that person also told him that he could only hand over this letter to the eldest grandson Bozhong, even if it was an official, he couldn't believe it." ”
"The 'X' emblem is also the emblem of the Assassin League, and it means the same thing as the Gold Seal badge. Presumably, that man was also a member of the Assassin League, by the way, what color was the clothes he was wearing?" Li Tianqi continued to ask.
"Black. ”
"Oh. Li Tianqi was thoughtful, he suddenly remembered the kind of eyes that Huo Duwei was thinking about, and suddenly said: "As for why Huo Duwei tracked you, I think he must have found a clue about you in that person, or some evidence you left there." ”
Lu Linlang blinked, pondered for a while, then looked up at the sky and thought about it carefully, looked at Li Tianqi and said: "I remembered, afterwards I found that a sachet was missing from my body, maybe I was in too much hurry to take the letterhead and accidentally dropped it at the scene, and Huo Duwei must have found the sachet I dropped when he investigated, so he suspected that I took this letterhead." ”
"What's so special about the sachets?"
"This sachet is known at a glance that it is something brought by a woman in Miaojiang, because the texture and flower ornaments are different from those of the Central Plains, and it also contains the incense powder of the golden silkworm flower. ”
"That's enough to show that Huo Duwei and they relied on this to lock you as this person. ”
"Well, after I got rid of their tracking, I changed into the girl's costume here, but they still followed you until I met you......"
"After talking for so long, we have all made it clear what we have hidden in our hearts. Then we are half a pound and eight taels of each other, and we are even. ”
"Hmm. Miss Lu smiled, as if she had let go of the big stone in her heart.
But what about Li Tianqi? There is an extra stone in his heart.
Who is the eldest grandson?
The boat Lin Yat-sen was on had gradually disappeared into the sky.
"Let's go. Yatsen is gone. Lu Linlang reminded.
Li Tianqi smiled a little embarrassedly: "I'm patronizing and talking about things, alas...... Yat-sen wants to adopt his heart this time. ”
"Hmph. Lu Linlang snorted lightly and teased: "I also said that I didn't miss her, just for a while, it seems that I am reluctant." ”
"You're not the same. Li Tianqi smiled, shook his head and sighed, and continued: "I didn't do anything serious, but I took a lot of work for others. Let's think about it again and see how to find clues...... "At this time, it naturally refers to the matter of the two looking for their relatives.
The two of them spun out of the woods and returned to the big ship.
Fan Xuewen was strange, why didn't the little boy be on the side. Li Tianqi said that he had something to do and had sent someone to pick him up. Fan Xuewen is even more strange, in this vast place of the sea, how can he say that he will come? But he didn't ask, he just put the question in his heart, since the eldest prince has already spoken, then why do he ask more.
Li Tianqi has also learned some ways to deal with these people from Lin Yixian these days, and sometimes, the simpler and shorter the speech, the better.
On the ship, Li Tianqi asked Fan Xuewen what sea area this area is in, and he told Li Tianqi that this area is close to the sea area of Fujian and Zhejiang, if you want to go north, then you need to go to the ports in Suzhou and Hangzhou to replenish, because that night the tornado caused a lot of materials to blow into the water, and it took a lot of time for everyone to repair the ship, and the supplies were lost a lot.
The repair of the big ship will be completed tomorrow, and after the ship is repaired, it will be able to reach the Fujian and Zhejiang areas within six days of going north.
Li Tianqi thought of the silk in the cave here, and now there are no clues to look for it randomly, since the north is all along the way, so it is better to go to Suzhou and Hangzhou to replenish the supplies first, and then visit his aunt by the way, or continue to hurry, maybe you can find some clues.
So, he ordered Fan Xueming to set off on the day.
It's night. The moon hangs high and the stars shine brightly.
Since Lin Yixian had gone back with her brother, Li Tianqi also gave Fan Xuewen's cabin back to him, and he went to the cabin where Lin Yixian lived.
Because he already knew that Lin Yixian was his daughter, his nose was also very sensitive at this time, and sure enough, he still smelled a faint fragrance in her room, which made him embarrassed. But with the door closed, who knew that he would still be red-faced at this time?
Lin Yixian, Li Tianqi really couldn't imagine that this little girl was actually dressed as a man. At the beginning, I repeatedly couldn't get along with myself, and I thought she was a little family, but now that the truth is in front of her, do girls need reason?
Of course not.
Thinking of this, Li Tianqi couldn't help but laugh secretly, thinking about the piles with Lin Yixian, and fell asleep......
