Chapter 52: Confused Eyes (Two in One)
Birds don’t understand, but people can understand this contradictory psychology.
Xu Shanshan said to it: "He saved me only because of his upbringing and chivalry in his heart, which made him take care of the weak and sympathize with women and children. However, when he treated me with indifference and alienation, it naturally showed an attitude... ..."
"Xu Shanshan" does not belong to him, and she cannot be regarded as the mistress of the Wei family.
Maomao seemed to understand, but he only thought of one thing: "I think he is much harder to get close to than Jiashan and Chi Jiangdong. How can Shan make him willingly give away the jade ring?" For you?”
"This matter is not urgent. He has a resolute personality and is difficult to solve with techniques and methods. It is more effective to drop water to penetrate the stone and wait until it is done."
Maomao sensed her voice at this time, and it tried: " Shan, do you think Wei Canghao is... uncontrollable?"
"Maomao..." She gently stroked its feathers, her voice calm and gentle: "Six of the seven kings are still alive. , in addition to the Xie family, there are many people behind it who are the cause of trouble. If I want the world to be stable, I have many people to deal with and many people to control. "
Maomao turned his head and looked at her. Her gaze was in the void, but it was lonelier than the moon. Even though there were stars surrounding her from time to time, she was always the only bright star in the dark night.
Maomao said: "The attitude of the Wei family is still unclear. I don't know which side they will fall to in the end, but at least it won't be the King of Jin..."
Jingguo has gradually split into seven parts of the world. No matter how fast Shan moves, she can only solve King Chen alone. She can no longer stop the split of Jingguo. Recently, there are faint voices from various places——
< br>Jingguo will be completely divided. Except for the recently deceased King Chen, the other six kings will soon proclaim themselves emperors in their respective fiefdoms, separate from Jingguo's Yue Emperor, and compete with Yue Emperor on an equal footing.
These rumors have become more and more intense and have reached a point that cannot be taken lightly. However, the imperial court still remains unmoved. It is not known whether Emperor Yue is really ill or unable to survive, or has lost his national adviser. He has no national policy. Neither can be done independently.
“Everything in this world is changing at any time. The Wei family’s temporary position does not represent a permanent position. Since the rift between the Jin King and the Wei family already exists, the conflict will be intensified and completely worsened to avoid future troubles. ”
“But in this case, wouldn’t the Wei family be the only one in Longdong?”
It knows that Shan wants to deal with King Jin, but once King Jin is gone, the Wei family will be the biggest winner in Longdong, and he will take over all the remaining forces. Isn't this just another "King Jin" in disguise.
This is by no means a good thing for those in power. The Longdong Sea area is vast and rich in resources, and it has diplomacy with small countries. The tax revenue of a region is as rich as that of a small country. Once it is separated from the constraints of the political power, the central government will be beyond its reach.
Xu Shanshan is not worried: "Since I allow his family to dominate, I will leave a trigger for his disloyalty and destruction."
"Shan, that Wei Canghao has been in these years He managed Longdong well. He built water conservancy projects and dredged rivers. He was more able to do practical things than the King of Jin, but he was too upright..."
He stopped talking.
"Isn't it better to know how to do practical things?" Xu Shanshan smiled.
Maomao simply said it bluntly: "Maomao thinks that Wei Canghao is such a selfless person. It is estimated that after the Black Island incident is solved, he and Wei Qiyao will be detained to continue serving their sentences, and they will not be asked to leave the island. It’s harmful to everyone.”
Don’t say it, don’t say it, it’s definitely Wei Canghao who can do this.
"I am just a person who was implicated and sent to prison. Do you really think that I have violated the king's law? As for the Xu family, the case must be overturned and retried to redress the grievances."
He knew full well that she had broken off her engagement with him, and he knew that the Xu family was related to him by marriage, so he was still involved in this matter both publicly and privately.
"You want to ask him to help you deal with the Xu family's unjust case? This is a clever plan. In this way, you will definitely find out the Lei family and the Jin king behind the Lei family."
This new and old hatred, Isn't it going to start a fight?
"So, Wei Canghao can boost my career luck. Working with him will get twice the result with half the effort, so why not?"
After the two chatted about some things, Maomao remembered something again.
"Shan, don't you think it's strange? The five fiancés selected by this divine fortune teller for Xu Shanshan are really one in a million, they perfectly fit her five-death destiny, and the magic weapon you are looking for to change your destiny is , and it happens to be on three of them, maybe more than three, maybe the remaining two magic weapons are also related to your two fiancés.”
Xu Shanshan had long been aware of this matter.
The most suspicious thing is that in the memory of the original owner, there is no appearance of the fortune teller. In her knowledge, there is only such a person, but all the information about this person has been wiped out.
The divine fortune teller in other people's mouths is sometimes a white-haired old man, sometimes a white-haired young man, sometimes a mysterious Taoist priest, sometimes a middle-aged fortune teller...
She lowered her eyes and smiled: "All the weirdness is just to hide some unknown truths. There is no need to think too much. When everything returns to the right path, the truth will come to light."
——
The rain stopped and the dark clouds gradually dispersed, but it was already getting late. The misty fog began to invade the Black Island. The iron beast-like ships had already sailed near the dock. The officers, soldiers and prisoners on the coastline were waiting nervously.
Fang Yingjie recognized that this was a battleship belonging to the Wei family, but the problem was that it was impossible for the Wei family to threaten Heidao with artillery shells, so he also made various speculations and analyses.
But one thing is certain, it’s definitely someone who comes with bad intentions.
However, from daylight to dark, the other party came closer, but the people on the ship did not get off the ship. In the dark night, those ships were like ghost ships, looming in the fog. Unpredictable.
“Why hasn’t my second sister come back yet? Isn’t this the Wei family’s ship? Didn’t she say that the head of the Wei family is her fiancé?”
Xu Shanshan's nails dug into her flesh, and Xu Shuishui worriedly asked: "Second sister won't be caught, right?"
Mo Han was calmer: "I just observed that there are only seven ships out of a dozen The boat came over, and the rest were behind... This is very wrong, like two separate teams. I suspect something is wrong with the Wei family."
Fang Yingjie just ran back from the shore. , he shook off the sweat from his forehead and gasped: "They haven't landed, but I feel more and more panicked. I plan to sneak up to find out what's going on."
"I'm up to you. Let's go together, I know Fu Shui," Mo Han said.
Fang Yingjie refused: "You can't do it. You don't know martial arts. What if you encounter any danger? I'd better pick a few good fighters to go together."
"Wei Qiyao has many good men around him. If you mention it to them, they will definitely follow him to save Wei Qiyao." Mo Han gave an idea.
Fang Yingjie nodded: "Okay, you all hide quickly. If something happens, I have to protect you for Master Xu. If I don't wait for her to come back, it will be difficult for me to do this."
< br>Mo Han looked at him deeply: "A person like you...will you really be loyal to one person? If she doesn't come back, all you have done is just in vain."
Fang Yingjie frowned angrily: "Which kind of person am I? I know, you think I am duplicitous and follow others, right? But it is difficult for people in this world to distinguish between loyal and traitorous people. Only loyal ministers are allowed to rebel, and evil ones are not allowed to be loyal?"< br>
Mo Han didn't mean that, he just found it hard to trust people's hearts.
"Miss Xu is a noble person. I believe she will return safely. Please take care of yourself," Mo Han said.
Fang Yingjie clenched the handle of the knife and said: "I have sensed that a disaster will happen this time, but I can't die. I have one very important thing that I haven't done yet, so I will die like this." I will regret it for the rest of my life. Therefore, I am not loyal to Master Xu. I hope that Master Xu can turn things around and save Heidao!"
Mo Han is right, people like him have long been here! He has a rotten heart and lungs and is not a good person.
His life is gambling, and now he has put all his chips on Xu Shanshan. If he wins, he will get his wish. If he loses, it is just that he has bad luck in gambling and deserves to be completely defeated. ——
Wei Canghao had been sending people to monitor the actions of the ship driven by Liao Wenchang ahead, until the ship was anchored on the shore but did not land, as if some conspiracy was brewing...
He then ordered: "Go around to the rear."
Waiting until nightfall, Wei Canghao still couldn't wait for news to come from the hijacked ship.
At the beginning, he deliberately let down his guard because he had received the news in advance that someone would take the opportunity to hijack the ship. However, he had already made preparations and ambushed a group of people in the dark panel of the ship. When the time was right, he would fight with them. The inside should be in harmony with the outside.
However, he never received the signal, so there must have been some accident.
"Master Wei, Xiao Cheng and the others have been silent. This is so strange."
As time went by, Wei Canghao's chief officer looked worried Zhongzhong.
The captain said: "No, what's even more strange is the method that Liao Wenchang used to steal seven of our ships without anyone noticing. Are you confused?"
The other officers were also puzzled.
A ship will be equipped with dozens to hundreds of people. If they are replaced by their own personnel, the ship will definitely be overloaded. But if people are killing people and dumping their bodies, there will definitely be a lot of noise. , it is impossible for them not to notice it at all.
But their movements were too small, so small that it seemed as if all the configurations on the ship were still the same, except that the control rights had been replaced... But the soldiers of the Wei family were all the best in a hundred. In addition to their abilities, their loyalty was also very high. , not all of them will be obedient.
"I'm afraid some unusual means were used." Wei Canghao said.
They looked at him quickly: "What did the Lord Wei say?"
"Although we also have this guess, is there any way in the world that we can quietly and quietly destroy the sea at sea?" The whole ship was controlled in a short time, and it was not exposed until they entered the Black Island territory?"
Wei Canghao is not sure now, but it is very simple to confirm all this. .
That night, he and a group of his followers secretly sneaked into the ship where Liao Wenchang and others were. These ships were built by the Wei family, and they knew their structure and layout well.
There is no patrol on the ship... There is not even a guard on the deck?
Weird.
Moreover, the thick fog around the ship made visibility even thinner at night. After climbing onto the hijacked ship, Wei Canghao found that the ship was very quiet.
I walked around on the deck and found nothing. When I entered the cabin again, I met someone...
They were uniformly dressed in the uniforms of the Wei family's sailors, but even when they came up to Wei Canghao and others, they had no reaction at all. They were in a daze, as if they were wandering spirits.
"What's going on? Why don't they seem to see us?" Chief Officer Fu Haiyun asked in surprise.
Wei Canghao's body flashed, and he was already in front of the Wei family's boatmen, but he still showed no reaction.
He observed that his face was very pale, his lips were dark, and his two eyes were particularly dark, but they did not reflect any light and were as dull as stagnant water.
“Is this poisoned or...wait, do you smell anything strange?”
Fu Haiyun felt that there seemed to be a strange smell in the air. After inhaling it hard, he felt that his head was starting to lose consciousness.
He became alarmed and quickly covered his mouth and nose.
"Exit the cabin first!" Wei Canghao turned his head with a stern expression: "Let's go!"
His crew members all turned into night wandering spirits, Wei Canghao couldn't help but He understands medical skills but does not understand occult arts. He doesn't know whether they were bewitched or possessed. But now that they are on the ship, he has to investigate further.
Others did not dare to enter anymore and exited the cabin as ordered. But as soon as they got out, there seemed to be some beautiful hum in their ears, dragging them into a fantasy country like a dream. .
Wei Canghao, who was still in the cabin, didn't know what was happening outside. He had lived by the sea since he was a child and had learned a turtle breathing technique that allowed him to hold his breath for nearly two-quarters of an hour.
He walked a short distance inside and found many strange small lamps placed inside the boat. He had never seen such small lamps before. The white and transparent lampshades were shaped like jellyfish, but the flames inside were It's cyan.
Slender smoke shot out from the lamp, lingering in the air for a long time and slowly flowing throughout the cabin.
...The strange smell they smelled just now must have been these cigarettes.
The narrow cabin passage winds forward, and its depths seem to enter a small isolated world.
Wei Canghao did not stop. He discovered more things that were wrong. He saw that someone had used a harsh paint to draw a character on the wooden board, surrounded by red runes.
They enveloped a room like a cocoon, everything seemed so strange and terrifying.
Xu Shanshan once said that there was an evil master on board the ship. Now when he saw these weird and incomprehensible things, he actually felt that her words might be true.
He stared at the room coldly, and was about to take a step forward——
At this time, a cool air behind him climbed up his neck, as if someone blew a breath of cold air on him , he turned back suddenly, his pupils suffocated in the next second, his eyes were as bright as fire, he was calm in the face of danger, he kicked forward, but missed...
——
Xu Shanshan and Maomao were standing on the deck, feeling the pleasant sea breeze blowing at night. She also heard the beautiful songs coming from the sea. The seductive humming like a siren did not make her lose it. She was conscious, her pupils were still clear.
Bang——
There was a dull sound of a heavy object hitting the ground, and a breath of water vapor and chill appeared behind her, but Xu Shanshan knew who it was and did not look back.
“Xu Shan Mountain…”
The low, magnetic voice is astonishing in the wind.
She turned her head leisurely, and the strong wind roared, and her clothes and belts fluttered.
I saw that Wei Canghao was soaked to the skin, his face was covered with frost, and his clothes clung tightly to his body, outlining his slender and tall figure, with his tight muscle lines looming, exuding a A wild and charming mature manly charm.
The dark flames in his eyes were awe-inspiring and upright, which was more captivating than the melodies of the bewitching monsters.
“Can you really deal with those evil masters?”
