Chapter 138: Tangdi Tongxin (6) Enemies Meet
After the captain sobered up, his opinion of the "captives" brought by Tu Cheng changed drastically, especially Wei Wei. When he spoke to him, his vocal cords tightened a little.
This is a good sign. The captain treats them well and they have more freedom on the ship.
The death of the little pirate did not cause any commotion. To save power, the surveillance cameras were turned off. Tu Cheng claimed that the little pirate fell down when he got up at night because he was drunk and could not stand steadily. This did not arouse any suspicion.
This is the second day on board.
The breakfast served was particularly sumptuous, with chicken legs for everyone and a plate of mini carrots prepared for Gao Mengtang.
Tu Cheng finished his meal in a few bites and went to the deck for a morning run. Gao Mengtang, Wei Wei and Duan Song were left in the bedroom.
"We have more freedom of movement now. You take the others, find a few small boats, and leave the copy first." Gao Mengtang was stirring the vegetable salad.
Wei Wei said simply: "I won't leave."
Gao Mengtang: "You don't even listen to the leader?"
"Then you can deduct it from my salary." said Wei Wei.
Gao Mengtang turned his gaze to Duan Song.
"Just deduct my salary," Duan Song said, gnawing on a chicken leg, "I can even work for free."
Gao Mengtang: “…”
Gao Mengtang put down his fork and sighed sadly, "As a leader, I can't even command my subordinates. I told you to leave, but no one listened. I have no power at all."
Wei Wei was unmoved: "On the contrary, if my leader was anyone other than you, I would have gone home to play with my cats."
"I won't come." Duan Song shrugged.
"Oh, I see." Gao Mengtang retracted his pitiful tone.
Duan Song finished his meal first, and Gao Mengtang found an excuse to send him away, leaving only him and Wei Wei in the room.
"I understand your efforts, but don't do this next time." Gao Mengtang said calmly.
This sentence was incoherent and people who were slower to react had no idea what he was talking about. Wei Wei paused with his chopsticks in hand and put down the bowl of porridge.
"You know it."
"Yeah. That little pirate last night was not a bad guy. He shouldn't have jumped up like a flash of genius and said those offensive words to me."
Gao Mengtang's observation ability was not as good as Duan Song's. The scene was very chaotic and his vision was a little blurry. He did not see Wei Wei feeding pills to the little pirate, nor did he realize that the gun was fake.
But this matter is too abnormal. If you think about it, it is not difficult to guess the reason behind it.
"Is this the pill you modified?" Gao Mengtang handed him a piece of beef shank. "The gun is fake too, right?"
Wei Wei was stunned for a moment, then laughed softly: "You are very observant, nothing can be hidden from you."
When the little pirate raised the gun, Gao Mengtang wondered if the gun might be fake.
But he didn't dare to gamble that if it was a real gun, his teammates would be injured.
"I don't want to kill anyone, but you are more important to me, and I don't want to see you get hurt," Gao Mengtang said, "or bear the blame for me."
Wei Wei did this to force the little pirate to take action first and reduce Gao Mengtang's moral burden.
But in this case, Wei Wei became the biggest villain. He was not a cold-blooded person, so it was impossible for him not to feel uncomfortable at all.
He smoked half a pack of cigarettes on deck last night.
"You didn't sleep well last night, so you have dark circles under your eyes. I'll give you my eye mask." Gao Mengtang pushed a small jar in front of Wei Wei.
"Is this thing useful?" Wei Wei smiled helplessly.
"It doesn't matter whether it works or not," Gao Mengtang said, "This stuff is icy cold, just like tears. When you feel sad but can't cry, apply it on your face and it will feel like crying bitterly."
Wei Wei's eyelashes trembled and he held the small jar hesitantly.
"Thank you." The voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.
The door was opened unexpectedly, and Lin Li ran in stumblingly, holding the crystal ball: "Prophet, I, I saw it..."
She slammed the crystal ball down on the dining table, spilling her unfinished breakfast all over the floor.
"This is the men's dormitory." Wei Wei quickly put on a coat over his pajamas.
"I know..." Lin Li stared at the crystal ball, "I know... what will happen in the future... in the future!"
Gao Mengtang's salad bowl was smashed, and the empty fork was hanging in the air. The crystal ball reflected his confused face: "Since it's the future, there's no rush to know now..."
"Prophet, you will definitely see it." Lin Li stared at Gao Mengtang with sharp eyes.
The prophet knew that he had not seen anything, but he frowned and stared at it for a few seconds with a serious look: "Blood disaster."
"That's right!!" Lin Li almost shouted.
When you can't guess what will happen in the future, guess bad things. In terms of probability, the chances of guessing correctly are greater.
Lin Li's nose was almost touching the crystal ball, and he said mysteriously: "A shadow... a hunched shadow. He is a cautious person, but his bent torso is the fuse of curling."
"He will bring a riot."
Be cautious.
Gao Mengtang glanced at Wei Wei secretly.
Wei Wei also guessed it was him: "Are you talking about me?"
"I can't see through it..." Lin Li suddenly raised his head and looked at Gao Mengtang enthusiastically, "But you, the prophet, can see through it."
Gao Mengtang: "It's not Wei Wei."
He guessed. At least it shouldn't put psychological pressure on Wei Wei.
"Isn't it Wei Wei... then who is it... who is it... I must find out." Lin Li held the crystal ball and left the room like a sleepwalker.
The hunched body, could it be a hunchback? They looked around the ship, and found that the pirates were all young and healthy, and they didn't see anyone with a hunchback.
The cargo ship sailed aimlessly along the wall of light.
Non-players do not understand the language of the other world, and cannot understand what the Balance Elves are saying. They do not know how to pass the Balance Scale, and still hold on to a glimmer of hope that they can find a door and leave the dungeon directly.
Near noon, there was a commotion on the deck.
"Who is it?"
"Don't shoot, don't shoot! We have money."
Gao Mengtang felt the voice was familiar and looked over.
The people who tried to board the ship were Bai Anzhi and his friends.
Bai Anzhi grabbed the rope and climbed onto the deck, constantly emphasizing that he had money and supplies and begging for shelter.
Following behind him were Bai Shu, a girl who looked to be the same age as him, and a little boy, about 10 years old.
"The girl's name is Bai Mingzhi. The boy's name is Bai Qianheng." Bai Jie said, "Bai Anzhi and Bai Mingzhi are my second uncle - my second uncle in the biological sense - they are my second uncle's children. Bai Qianheng is their nephew."
He Yi also came over: "Are they, good guys or bad guys?"
People from wizard families can more or less speak a little bit of the language of the other world, and they know how to get out. Being left behind means they are unable to balance the scales.
If good outweighs evil, then killing is fine. Except for great good people like Gao Mengtang who have all seven virtues, others don't mind killing a few people in order to pass the level. Especially the cold-blooded wizards.
The fact that Bai Anzhi and his men couldn't leave showed that they were doing more evil than good.
Vice is more important than virtue, and they don't know how to leave yet. But they can guess that the conditions are more stringent.
"They are all bad guys," Bai Jie put his arm around He Yi's shoulders and patted her gently, "Don't worry, sister He Lun, I will protect you."
"I have a name, my name is He Yi!"
"Okay, Sister Heron."
The four people were carrying a large backpack. After they went on deck, they talked with the captain, who agreed to take them in.
Bai Anzhi looked up and saw Gao Mengtang lying under a parasol to enjoy the cool air not far away.
"You really haunt me. Oh no," Bai Anzhi pretended to apologize for saying the wrong thing, "I mean, we meet again."
Gao Mengtang pretended not to notice his hostility: "I hope you are well."
Bai Anzhi walked in front of him, put his hands behind his back, leaned down, and smiled elegantly: "Let me guess why you are here. Good is greater than evil, and you are unwilling to kill people, so you can't leave?"
There were no non-players around except Hei, and he also lowered his voice, sounding like a poisonous snake hissing.
Gao Mengtang poured him a drink: "You guessed it right. You are indeed a wizard. Some ice water?"
Pop.
The water cup was knocked over and glass fragments exploded.
"I'm sorry, I didn't hold it firmly," Bai Anzhi said slowly, his voice very gentle, "I apologize, I'll pour you a cup of coffee."
After he finished speaking, he took the coffee pot and small teacup next to him.
Gao Mengtang: "Thank you, I don't drink coffee..."
Before he could finish his words, he saw Bai Anzhi holding a cup of boiling hot coffee, with the cup tilted -
Crack, crack, ice crystal fragments suddenly appeared in the air, tearing a corner of his long sleeves. Bai Anzhi's pupils shrank rapidly and he dodged quickly.
When he dodged, the cup of hot coffee that was intended to be poured on Gao Mengtang's face spilled all over his own shirt.
"Oh, be careful. I told you I don't drink coffee." Gao Mengtang took out a towel as if nothing had happened. "Did I burn you?"
The coffee liquid flowed down Bai Anzhi's neck, forming a trail of bubbles. He stared at Gao Mengtang with cold anger in his eyes.
He threw the teacup to the ground and left.
"What is he doing?" Hei Yi was very angry.
Gao Mengtang shook his head slowly.
When they met before entering the copy, Bai Anzhi clearly stated that he did not want to make enemies with him.
Why did she come and deliberately provoke him in just three days?
Bai Jie was so angry that his red hair became even more messy, and his eyes were like burning charcoal, wishing he could burn two holes in his brother. He patted He Yi's head and said, "Don't be angry." Although his voice was shaking with anger, "I will help the boss avenge sooner or later."
Bai Qianheng passed by them and called out in a strange manner: "Hey, you, what's your name? The one who was kicked out of the Bai family!"
Bai Jie smiled coldly: "What's your name? If you want to join the Xiao family, when will you change your surname?"
For wizard families, surnames are very important. If necessary, they can change their surnames. Although there will be rumors, they will not be ridiculed by everyone.
Changing the surname would mean burning the family tree. This is a great shame.
"I'm not changing my surname, I'm just changing my clan name!" Bai Qianheng was a child after all, and was about to explode after hearing this. He became even more outspoken, "Who is that bitch next to you? Your girlfriend?"
The three of them were stunned, and Bai Jie was still touching Hei's head.
Gao Mengtang was the first to come to his senses: "What are you talking about!"
Bai Qianheng pulled a bunch of seaweed from his collar, rolled it into a ball, and threw it at He Yi, hitting her forehead. Bai Qianheng laughed out loud: "Bai Jie, your girlfriend is really ugly. You climbed up to the high branch of Yue Fan, but you can't find a better one?"
After cursing, Bai Qianheng was about to run away. Gao Mengtang chased after her, but failed to catch the child, but did catch the child's aunt.
"Call Bai Qianheng back and apologize to us." Gao Mengtang said.
Bai Mingzhi did not struggle to break free. Instead, she rubbed the back of Gao Mengtang's hand meaningfully, and said in a charming and gentle voice: "Captain Gao, I have committed four of the seven deadly sins. Gluttony, rage, greed... and lust."
That soft, boneless hand had already touched Gao Mengtang's elbow: "You're so beautiful, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep with you in my next life."
"Apologize to Hei Yi and Bai Jie." Gao Mengtang retracted his arm.
"I'm sorry, I apologize on his behalf," Bai Mingzhi said swiftly, "To express my apology, I am willing to comfort you all night long."
Wo Lanbei's lazy voice came: "Gao Mengtang, don't be polite to the bastard, I'll tell you what to do."
He walked over nonchalantly, grabbed Bai Qianheng by the collar, lifted him up, slapped him twice in the face, and then threw him on the deck.
"Have you learned it?" Wolanbei asked calmly.
Bai Mingzhi came back to his senses, his features twisted with anger: "How dare you, bastard!"
The wooden muzzle of the pistol was pressed against her temples. Wolanbei stretched her cervical vertebrae and said, "Yes, I dare."
The two groups confronted each other for a moment and then parted unhappily.
Wo Lanbei said with a smile: "I asked you to wear half sleeves, and you took advantage of me."
Gao Mengtang glanced at him speechlessly.
Bai An's family seemed to be deliberately provoking him. Why?
After thinking for a moment, Gao Mengtang couldn't think of the reason. He thought of Wo Lanbei standing beside him: "Are you here to see me? What's the matter?"
"Wei Wei asked me to come find you. He and Duan Song are tinkering with the Tongxinteng sample and have come up with some results." After Wo Lanbei finished speaking, he muttered, "He and I are no longer in the same camp. Why is he still ordering me around?"
You don't have to come. It's a two-way fight.
When Tu Cheng boarded the yacht, he cut off a vine of the euphorbia pulcherrima and gave it to them. They kept it in a vase.
I don’t know what they discovered.
Just as Gao Mengtang was about to leave, he turned around and said, "Don't let Duan Song and He Lun know what happened just now. They are both impulsive. The Bai family's behavior is very strange. Let's wait and see what happens."
"Not including me!" Bai Jie said, "I cut ties with them."
He Yi also shouted: "Not including my brother's red-haired teammates!"
Bai Jie: "I have a name."
"Got it, red-haired teammate."
Bai Jie: "..."
