Chapter 90: Finally Getting to the Island (Part II)
Zhang Rumeng stroked his palms and smiled: "I see, it seems that my investigation is not in vain." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info But Brother Dugu, how can we prove our identity to this shopkeeper Gong Kai?" Dugu Jian took out the turquoise Heavenly King Decree from his arms and said: "Brother Zhang, please see, I have a piece of the Heavenly King Decree given by Yang Hu, the right envoy of the Heavenly King Gang, General Wang Zuo once said that after seeing this order, this shopkeeper will naturally take us to the island!"
"Then what are we waiting for, without further ado, let's go over and meet this Gong shopkeeper for a while!" Zhang Rumeng said and stood up, pulled Jian Xin and walked over. The three of them came to Gong Kai, and Gong Kai hurriedly greeted: "Are the three guest officers planning to order anything?" Dugu Jian smiled shallowly: "No need, but I want to see my friends here next time!" Gong Kai was slightly startled, but his face did not change at all, and he shook his head: "Oh? My friend traveled far away in the rivers and lakes, but did you ever bring a self-defense head?" Dugu Jian smiled intently: "I don't know if this is enough to defend yourself......" said, took it out of his arms, and showed the token. Gong Kai's eyes lit up, and he called in a low voice: "Heavenly King Order...... Please come with me. He led the three of them to the inner room of the teahouse. Gong Kai made a big salute: "Seeing the Heavenly King's order, if you see the helper, I don't know what the son commands, Gong Kai should obey his orders."
Dugu Jian looked at him and said in a deep voice: "Shopkeeper Gong, we have something to ask to see the leader of your gang!" Gong Kai groaned slightly: "This is ...... Well, the rules of the gang have always been that outsiders are not allowed to land on the island at will. But since Gongzi has the order of the Heavenly King, Gong Kai must not stop it, but only Gongzi can only hold the order to go to Tianwang Island to meet the helper, and ask these two to stay in the small shop, and the small one will arrange to take care of it, I hope the three of them will forgive me. Zhang Linxin was unhappy: "Why can't we go in?" Gong Kai rejected her apologetically: "This girl, I'm really sorry, this is the rule in the gang, and only one person can go in at a time if you are not a brother in the gang."
Seeing this scene, although the three of them were not happy, they couldn't break in. Dugu Jian turned back to the two brothers and sisters of the Zhang family and said, "Brother Zhang, Lin'er, then you can stay here, and when you see their helper, I will come back soon." Zhang Rumeng couldn't be reluctant to hear it, so he told him: "Brother Dugu must be careful, we are here to wait for your good news." Zhang Linxin has been separated from Dugu Jian for the first time since he left Lin'an City, except for the last time when Dugu Jian was in a coma and went to Tianshan Mountain alone to find medicine, he was sad and stopped, stepped forward to tidy up his clothes for him, looked at his face and said, "Brother Dugu...... You must be careful!" Dugu Jian's eyes reflected her snow-white face, and she smiled softly: "Well, Lin'er, don't worry, it'll be fine, I'm here to wait for me to come back." ā
Gong Kai called a small servant and ordered him to lead the Zhang brothers and sisters to the private room on the side, and explained that a table of wine and food was cleaned up for the two of them to eat, and he led Dugu Jian out of the door and walked towards the lake.
When I got out of the door of the teahouse, I saw a middle-aged man running over in a hurry, kneeling down in front of Gong Kai with a "poof", snot and tears: "Brother Gong, please, save my brother, spare me! As soon as the middle-aged man looked up, although his face was a little blue and swollen, he could still see the original appearance. When Dugu Jian saw his appearance, he was secretly taken aback in his heart: this person was the one who salvaged things in Dongting Lake last night!
I saw Gong Kai snort and asked, "Song Lao Wu, what's the matter with you? Don't you see that I have a guest here?" Then Song Lao Wu suddenly kowtowed: "Yes, Brother Gong, I'm blind, I'm really sorry, but I really can't help it! Brother Xiao and Qi Heng went to my house, beat me up, and asked me to return all the things on the sunken ship." I shouldn't, I shouldn't, I shouldn't have broken the rules of the king, and went to fish for those sunken treasures in private...... I beg Brother Gong to say a few good words for me because I'm a lot older, and let me go!"
Dugu Jian suddenly understood: "It turns out that this person salvaged the things on the sunken ship without permission, no wonder he wanted to sneak around alone at night, and he went while it was foggy, because he was afraid of being discovered." It's just that he didn't expect that he thought he was doing something hidden, but it was still discovered. Gong Kai shook his head and said: "Song Lao Wu, I know that your family's conditions are not good, there are many children, and the old lady is sick, but you broke the rules this time, if you don't punish it severely, how will the king of heaven convince people in the future?"
Song Lao Wu kowtowed again and again, and his forehead turned red: "Brother Gong, I know that these belong to everyone...... I, I was also confused for a while, and now I'm handing it all over. Please help return to Brother Zhou Han, and ask for a favor for the little one, I am grateful here. As he spoke, he untied the big pocket on his back and put it in front of him: "Brother Gong, everything is here, please help me say a few good words, there are old and young people in my family, and there is really no way!"
Seeing his pitiful appearance, Dugu Jian was also a little unbearable, and suddenly felt compassion, and whispered to Gong Kai: "Shopkeeper Gong, it's not easy to see him, and you think of his first offense, you can raise your noble hand and help him." Gong Kai twisted the short beard on his chin, pondered for a moment, and then made up his mind: "Okay, Song Lao Wu, for the sake of the past love and you are indeed not easy, I will help you this time, Brother Zhou, I will naturally say a few words, but whether it succeeds or not, it depends on what Brother Zhou means." Song Lao Wu received Gong Kai's promise, felt a lot more relieved, kowtowed again, and thanked him: "Thank you Brother Gong! Thank you Brother Gong!"
Gong Kai waved his hand: "If you want to thank this son, thank you, you still need his help in your affairs." Song Lao Wu was stunned, looked at Dugu Jian, paused for a moment, and then hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you Gongzi, thank you Gongzi!" Dugu Jian hurriedly helped him up and asked Gong Kai: "Gong Shopkeeper, what do you mean?" Gong Kai smiled and pointed to the pocket on the ground and said: "Childe, since he admitted that he was wrong, he will also return all the things he salvaged privately, and the intention of repentance is still obvious, but how to deal with it depends on the meaning of Zhou Han, who is in charge of this matter on the island." Now I still have to take care of the store, and I can't leave at will, so I bother you to help bring the things to the island, hand them over to Brother Zhou, and bring him the meaning of the following, and ask him to dispose of it as appropriate. At that time, I hope you can help say a few good words, after all, you are holding the Heavenly King Order, and you are a distinguished guest of this gang, I believe that Brother Zhou will definitely give you face. ā
"This ...... Well, well, I'll do my best to help with this!" Dugu Jian thought for a moment and agreed. Seeing this, Song Lao Wu thanked him repeatedly. The distinguished guest waved his hand and ordered him to retreat, and Song Lao Wu hurriedly stepped aside, not daring to speak more. Here, Gong Kai led Dugu Jian to the lake not far from the teahouse, pushed aside the clumps of aquatic plants, and pushed out a small boat from the hidden place. (To be continued.) )
