Chapter 517: What are you panicking about? Even beating the gong!
The autumn sun is shining in the sky.
On the calm and vast sea, two Chinese ships were sailing one after the other.
The interior of the black ship's cabin is very spacious, luxuriously decorated, elegant and not vulgar.
There are gauze curtains hanging on the boat windows, a small chaise longue is placed under the window, and a low table with rolled legs is placed beside it, with a chessboard and tea sets on it.
In the corner, there is a high-necked jade vase with a golden branch inserted in it, and in front of the innermost wall there is a huge jade screen.
After breakfast, Bai Xiaofeng walked to Yuping, set up the piano table, and played a tune with great interest.
The old man held a fresh fruit plate in his hands, sitting cross-legged on the futon, munching on the fruit with a look of satisfaction on his face. "It feels familiar, it feels familiar. Grandpa used to live like this. Clothes come to hand and food comes to mouth. There's even a servant who plays the zither to entertain after dinner!"
"It's rare for a person to reach seventy, and at such an old age he still can't break the bad habit of speaking ill of others." Bai Xiaofeng was not affected at all, and the sound of a piece of music called "High Mountains and Flowing Water" rang out.
The old man crawled over and stared at him, with doubt in his eyes. "No, that's not right. I think you should be angry now. If you don't curse back at me, you should at least take it out on me."
"Tsk! You're almost at the age of death. Why should I bother dirtying my hands and my reputation?"
"Bai! I understand now, you must be my grandfather's disciple! That's why you're just as vicious as my grandfather! I see! Hey, grandson!"
"..." The sound of the piano broke, Bai Mou's cultivation fell apart, and his snake eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Nanny Lu spent two years training herself to become as immovable as a mountain. She took a nap on the imperial concubine's couch without even lifting her eyelids.
Beside the coffee table, Bai Yu drew a relationship map of the Su family for Tianbao. He was very patient and even had time to chat with her. "The feud between Grandpa Du and Godfather can be traced back to thirty years ago. Except for Uncle Broken Knife, everyone we know had a grudge against Grandpa Du before they had any other friendships."
Tian Bao leaned on the coffee table with both hands, holding her cheeks, "Your godfather always ignores you. Is he really your godfather?"
"Hmph." Bai Xiaofeng quickly shifted his focus to avoid accidentally killing the old man who had just managed to save his life. "Tianbao, you're mistaken. I'm your godfather. I have nothing to do with this Bai guy. Even if I do, he's just a byproduct."
Bai Yu met the woman's probing gaze and blinked innocently, "Godfather is just like that. He's just like Grandpa Du, he always has a grudge against everyone before he develops any friendships."
The beautiful music of "High Mountains and Flowing Water" suddenly broke down twice in a short period of time, and then played out the passionate and uplifting sound of "Ten Sides of Ambush".
The old man was stimulated by the sound of the piano and stopped eating the fruit. He chased after the boy from the Bai family whom he had just met and wanted to beat him up. The old man and the boy ran all over the cabin.
Outside the cabin, Huiying and Meiying stayed in the dark, doing their duty conscientiously.
The scene inside the cabin could be clearly seen through the window, and both of them felt mixed emotions.
Ever since that woman appeared, the Lord seemed like a different person, completely different from their impression of him.
The sinisterness and oppression were all gone, and the strong sense of oppression also disappeared without a trace.
Become harmless to humans and animals.
"So she is Su Tianbao, the most wanted criminal in nine countries back then." Phantom murmured with a wry smile.
Huiying immediately warned her with her eyes, "Meiying, don't forget your identity and responsibilities. We are the Shadow Guards!"
"I haven't forgotten, I just feel a little sorry for you, my Lord."
Seeing her with her eyes drooping and lost, Huiying sighed silently, and the two of them said nothing more.
The cabin was still bustling.
The man, who was crazy at heart, dodged and laughed while being chased by the old man, calling out "Tianbao, Tianbao" over and over again...
As bright as the clear sky over the sea without any haze.
Fengyun City has remained unchanged for decades.
During the day, there are people looking for trouble everywhere in the streets and alleys.
After the fight, they would go to a small tavern in the alley and chat about everything under the sun like brothers.
Zhao Laoer hooked his hand around the butcher who had just been skinned and deboned by his butcher knife. "They say competitors are enemies. Why did you insist on selling pork across the street from my shop? I'll beat you up, it'll be embarrassing!"
The butcher chuckled and poured him some wine. The two clinked their glasses and drank heartily. "Business in Fengyun City is just like that. It's not fair for me to steal your business, but Fengyun City has a lot of people, right? The combined population of the South City and the North City is at least several thousand or even tens of thousands. How can a butcher shop like you take over all the business? You don't have that much goods to sell!"
"You also said, South City, North City! I'm in the south of the city, can't you go to the north?"
"Brother Zhao, please don't tell me. Two years ago, I was doing business in North City. Later, it didn't work out. I feel more at ease here. My legs don't tremble. Brother, I admit it to you. When I see the guy from the Bai family now, I'm really scared."
"..." Zhao Lao Er was speechless. He instantly felt great sympathy for the butcher. "Alas, it's been difficult to survive in North City these past two years."
In the past, the young master of the Bai family was arrogant, but he never took other people seriously and never looked for trouble.
Although I don't bother to cause trouble for them now, they are still very gloomy and careless. If they raise their eyelids and glance at you, you will feel weak in the knees.
Everyone went back and forth, trying to stay away so as not to meet Young Master Bai unexpectedly and scare themselves.
There were quite a few people in the tavern during the day. When they heard the two people mention the Bai family, they started talking to them casually.
"A few days ago, I saw a white sailboat sailing out to sea. I thought something must be going on. As expected, they wiped out another pirate on a small island. Tsk tsk."
"How come you're so well-informed? It's only been a short time, and you already know how many pirates died?"
"Where did I get this information? Believe it or not. The ship from the Killing Palace should be back soon. Things are getting tense outside again."
"It's funny. They used to say the Exile Lands were chaotic and not a place for people to stay, but now so many people are trying their best to get in. Compared to the outside world, our area is actually peaceful now."
"There are wars everywhere, and the only place unaffected is the Land of Exile... This is the Princess's territory, but now that she's gone, no one dares to attack it. Isn't that ironic?"
While the hooligans and thugs were chatting and sighing, there was suddenly a noise on the street.
This caused the people in the tavern to stretch their necks to look outside the alley.
There were gongs and drums beating rapidly in the streets, and the clanging sounds were endless.
"The white sailboat has landed!"
"The white sailboat has landed!"
Zhao Laoer's mouth twitched, and he raised his voice and asked, "Where are we?"
Someone immediately answered loudly, "He's heading to Pier 12. He'll probably be moored in the outer city!"
"Then what are you panicking about? You're even beating the gong, thinking the city isn't chaotic enough! You're such a jerk! Come out and get beaten!"
“…”
