Ye Cheng and Zhong Qing took advantage of the fact that the night had not yet completely fallen, and returned to Lu Li's residence, and when the two walked into the house, they found that there was an oil lamp lit inside, and Lu Li must be in the room. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Ye Cheng found that the door was hidden, but he still stood outside the house respectfully and knocked on the door, and soon heard a strange voice coming from inside: "You still know to come back, come in!"

Ye Cheng and Zhong Qing walked into the room at this time, but they saw Lu Li in the hall with Erlang's legs crossed, drinking wine by himself, and there were three dishes on the table, although they were not very fine, it could be seen that Lu Li did it himself.

Ye Cheng saw that these three dishes were already cold, but obviously he didn't touch them at all, knowing that it was Lu Li who was waiting for them to come back to eat, and he never saw anyone, so he simply drank and waited here. Ye Cheng couldn't help but be moved in his heart, thinking that the master was respected as one of the six heroes of the rivers and lakes, and he personally cooked for the apprentice, not to mention, it was really not easy to wait until now.

But Ye Cheng couldn't eat at this time, and he didn't care about giving gifts, so he immediately walked in front of Lu Li and bowed down and said, "Master, Senior Dai and Youling are missing!"

"What!" Lu Li hurriedly put down Erlang's legs and jumped up from the chair.

At first, Lu Li didn't believe his ears, but then he thought about it again, Old Man Dai regarded herbs as treasures, and often studied them tirelessly until late at night, and it was not too late at this moment, maybe he was in a hurry again, and he took Youling to pick and study herbs at this time.

"There's no fuss, this Dai Lao'er is sometimes like this, he is closer to those broken grasses than his own son, maybe he is scared again now, there is no need to panic. Lu Li waved his hand.

Ye Cheng and Zhong Qing told how they heard Youling's screams in the mountains, how they rushed to find the herbs that Dai Sigong had dropped, and so on.

Although Drunk Taibai is chivalrous and righteous, he has a good character, but he has a strange personality and few friends to talk to, Dai Sigong is one of the few people, thinking that his best friend may be in a big trouble now, Lu Li couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

"Without further ado, take me there quickly. Lu Li picked up the wine gourd and said.

Ye Cheng and Zhong Qing hurriedly led the way, and Lu Li came to the place where they saw the first herb left behind, and then followed the route that the two of them walked in the evening, all the way to the wetland on the bank of the river.

As in the evening, there was no trace of anyone else in the wetland on the shore except for the footprints of Ye Cheng and Zhong Qing. Even a heroic man like Lu Li couldn't help but shake his head and said: "Strange, strange, even I can't jump on the boat from here, who is sacred, with such great skills?"

Lu Lisi said for a long time: "It seems that someone did it deliberately this time, and it is difficult for the old man to have a clue at present, so the only way to do this is to go to Chongming Island, hoping to get some clues." ”

Zhong Qing frowned and said: "Brother Ye and I also want to be here, but there is no ferry by this river, if it is late today, it is even more difficult to meet, is it possible that we have to wait until tomorrow morning to try our luck?"

Lu Li smiled and said, "No need, Old Scar will come to pick us up." ”

Ye Cheng and Zhong Qing glanced at each other, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "Old Scar?"

"Yes, it's an old scar. Lu Li said as he looked at the vast and dark river.

Ye Cheng saw Lu Li take out an object from his arms, but it was a fire hyacinth commonly used by people in the martial arts to transmit signals, Lu Li quickly swiped the fire hyacinth on his clothes, a red flame burned instantly, Lu Li raised his hand towards the night sky, only to hear a bang, a firelight flew into the sky, drawing a beautiful arc.

The firelight swirled in the sky, and finally disappeared into the vast night, Lu Li found a rock and sat down, rested his head on the wine gourd, closed his eyes and said, "You can also find a place to rest for a while, someone will come to pick us up in a while." ”

It's not that Lu Li doesn't have worries in his heart, but his years of experience in walking the rivers and lakes tell him that he must have calm in every major event, and he can't predict what will happen when he looks for Dai Sigong, so he must adjust his body to the best state.

The dark blue sky, only the moon is so bright, there is no sound around except for the sound of cicadas and the rustling of the wind and grass, the night breeze is a little cool, Zhong Qing gently leaned on Ye Cheng's shoulder, although the two of them were full of puzzlement, they had to wait quietly like this.

After about an hour, I heard a whistle on the river, and then a blue fire slowly approached the shore. Hearing this whistle, Lu Li opened his eyes and said, "The person who picked us up is here." ”

Ye Cheng and Zhong Qingye hurriedly stood up, looking at the blue fire in the river from far and near, more and more clearly recognizable, it turned out to be a small boat, and the blue fire was the light emitted by the lights on the boat.

"Old Scar, you're much slower than you used to. Lu Li said loudly.

"People in the world are all for profit, and those who can slow down can see through. The man said, tying the cable.

Ye Cheng and Zhong Qing looked at the boatman who was holding the boat and couldn't help but be stunned. But under the moonlight, this person's eyes are cold, there is hardly a complete piece of skin on his face, large and small scars are all over his face, one left ear is also incomplete, and then look at those two hands, they are like dead branches, and the green tendons in some places are even bare outside, which is very terrifying.

Although Ye Cheng and Zhong Qing are young, they can be regarded as having seen some young people in the world, but they have never seen such a good-looking person.

You know that I never take people to the island, those who want to go to the island......" Before the man who supported the boat finished speaking, Lu Li interrupted him and said with a smile: "These two dolls are not living people, but my newly accepted apprentices by Lu Li." Come on, you two come and meet the old scar seniors. ”

In the night, Ye Cheng and Zhong Qing both gave gifts to the old scar, but Zhong Qing was on the young lady's temper, and he was very disgusted with the old scar, and said in his heart that this person was just vicious, and his temper was still so stinky, why did he have to give him a salute, and immediately just nodded slightly, and paced to the side without announcing his name. Lu Li knew this Zhong Qing's temper, and he didn't care about it at the moment.

Ye Cheng thought that even if he was a friend of the master, he must be treated as an elder, so he respectfully bowed and said: "Junior Ye Cheng, the disdainful disciple of the drunken Taibai Lu Daxia pays a visit to the old scar senior." ”

In the night, the stiff face of the old scar did not change at all, but there was a strange look in his eyes, and even his voice trembled a little: "What did you say your name was?"

"Junior Ye Cheng, drunk too white Lu Daxia's disdain to meet the old scar senior. Ye Cheng thought that the old scar on the opposite side might not be very good for his ears, so he repeated it slowly.

Ye Cheng...... Ye Cheng, your name is Ye Cheng?" Old Scar muttered, as if talking to himself.

Ye Chengxin said What happened to this old scar senior, why did he seem to be very excited when he heard his name, and he immediately didn't want to ask, just stood there respectfully.

At this time, Lu Li walked over and said: "Yes, this is my apprentice Ye Cheng, the girl over there is called Zhong Qing, and she is also my apprentice, the daughter of Zhong Wanhou, a sable guest, have you ever heard of a sable?"

Old Scar said coldly: "No." ”

Zhong Qing was very proud when he saw Lu Li mention his father, but he never thought that this old scar looked so disdainful, although Zhong Wanhou, a sable guest in the rivers and lakes, could not compare to Zhang Yuchu, a mysterious Taoist, Nie Guangyang, Drunken Taibai Lu Li and other six heroes in the rivers and lakes, but he was also a famous hero, such a fisherman who supported the boat, how ugly he looked, he had no respect for his father, and he couldn't help but be very annoyed.

Ye Cheng was very worried about the safety of Youling and Dai Sigong, and immediately said to Lu Li: "Master, without further ado, let's quickly ask this old scar senior to take us across the river to Chongming Island to see what is going on." ”

Lu Li nodded, then turned around and said a few words to the old scar, but when the old scar listened to Lu Li's speech, his eyes kept staring at Ye Cheng, making Ye Cheng feel uncomfortable.

"Let's go, this river is not an ordinary river, there are many undercurrents at the bottom of the river, and the water is very turbulent, you should be careful, I will not catch you if you fall into the river." Old Scar walked to the side of the boat and said coldly as he untied the cable.

"Old Scar's old man can rest assured, even if we sit on a big turtle, don't want us to fall into the river. Zhong Qing said in a gentle tone, but as soon as the smart person heard it, he knew that she was scolding the old scar for being a big turtle.

Where did the old scar have the same knowledge as her, so she immediately ignored it, and jumped on the boat first, followed by Lu Li and Ye Cheng also got on the boat one after another. Zhong Qing was the last, and the boss slowly moved to the side of the boat reluctantly. Ye Cheng stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Qing'er, hurry up, find Dai seniors, they are the most important." ”

"Qing'er is the kind of person who doesn't care about the overall situation?" Zhong Qingqiao frowned slightly, but still put her hand on Ye Cheng's hand.

The old scar didn't wait for Zhong Qing to stand firmly, propped up the penny, whistled, and the hull of the ship was offshore, almost shaking Zhong Qing down. Zhong Qing was angry and just wanted to attack, but was quickly stopped by Ye Cheng.

The boat under the moon seems so small in this big river, the wind and waves are coming, and the boat seems to be in danger in the ups and downs, but the old scar is so confident and easy, seeing that the boat is about to capsize several times, it is supported by the old scar's penny, and the danger is turned into a disaster. Zhong Qing wanted to hold on at first, but after all, it was a little girl's house, and after a while, she was scared and sat in the middle of the boat and didn't dare to move.

"Old Scar, how much have you fished recently?" Lu Li suddenly asked, sitting on the boat.

"It's been very few lately, and no one has ...... for more than ten days," Scar said in a deep voice.

"What are you talking about?" Zhong Qing was a little girl after all, and she couldn't help but sit in the middle of the boat and ask Lu Li.

"Lao Scar is the ferry in the Chongming River, but he has another identity. Lu Li said with a smile.

"What identity?" Zhong Qing became more and more curious.

"Corpse digger. ”
