Chapter five hundred and thirtieth IX Long Night and Dreams
Just when Ye Zuxi was about to mobilize more power, a loud gunshot interrupted his move.
The scarlet sailor, who was about to start sprinting, had a bright fire light on his chest, and the powerful momentum caused him to fall backwards and fall to the ground.
Ye Zuxi was stunned for a moment, and then immediately noticed a special melody.
Elegant, classical, restrained, and brisk melody, but there is sadness hidden under it.
Ye Zuxi turned around and saw a young man wearing ancient noble clothing. The sophisticated ritual array on the smoothbore gun in his hand was slowly extinguished. It was obviously this gun that produced the astonishing effect.
And this young man turned out to be the ticket inspector who was when Ye Zuxi and others boarded the ship.
That young man with extraordinary temperament left a deep impression on Ye Zuxi. At that time, he also thought that maybe they would meet again in the future.
And now this idea has been realized.
The young man's indifferent expression turned into a gentle smile after Ye Zuxi looked at him.
"Hello, we meet again."
Ye Zuxi said: "Do you remember me?"
As a ticket inspector, I have to look at many people in a day. Although Ye Zuxi cannot be said to be ordinary, he does not have any particularly memorable features, and the young man in front of him seems to still remember himself.
Is it because of his extraordinary memory or other reasons?
"There are only a few people with first-class tickets. It's not difficult to leave an impression. Besides, your strength is so great that it's really hard for people to ignore you." The young man smiled. After speaking, he looked at the scarlet figure who stood up again in front of him, and turned around.
He said: "There will be a lot of time for greetings later, how about we retreat here first?"
Ye Zuxi glanced at the sailor, nodded and said, "Okay."
The inexplicable monster in front of him had unknown details and was very powerful. Although Ye Zuxi did not let go of his hands and feet, he was not only suppressed in the battle with the opponent, but was even slightly at a disadvantage!
It is not wise to get entangled, and there is no reason to fight with the other party.
The scarlet sailor pulled up the anchor and waved it.
The young man beside him pressed a decorative button on the musket in his hand, and while the ritual circle flashed, he fired forward.
laugh!
But what was fired was not a bullet, but a thick cloud of smoke.
The anchor swept away the smoke, but it was empty.
The smoke cleared and there was no trace behind.
The scarlet figure didn't make any indication of this, but just tilted his head, twisted his neck, and then dragged the anchor and turned around to look for the next unfortunate consciousness wandering in the dream.
…
After being shrouded in smoke, what is lost is not just a moment of vision, but also a sense of direction and space.
But this feeling was only fleeting, and soon the down-to-earth feeling returned.
Ye Zuxi looked around and found that they had moved to a room filled with many items.
"This is a small shop I opened on the ship. Of course, I am in a dream now. But no one usually comes to visit, and only in dreams do people come." The young man joked.
Ye Zuxi did not respond to this, but turned to look at him and said: "Who are you?"
The young man shrugged and blinked his blue eyes: "A hawker on the Lilith is thinking about how to spend his future life."
Ye Zuxi's eyes came to the musket in the young man's hand.
Although it looked like just a musket, the power of the scarlet sailor who was able to beat Abu in his normal form without causing any harm for a long time was already somewhat incredible.
"I'm glad you like it, but it's a pity that it's not for sale, and its name is 'Flowers'."
"It's very beautiful." Ye Zuxi shrugged and said cooperatively.
"Yes, thank you for the compliment, I think so too."
"Then what do you call me?"
"Bruce, you can call me that." The young man's eyes curved beautifully and he smiled.
"My name is Ye Zuxi."
"I know, I have information about you." Bruce nodded and said clearly.
Ye Zuxi was not surprised by this. This ticket inspector seemed to have many secrets. Ye Zuxi would not be surprised by what happened on this ship now.
I guess so……
Bruce sat behind a Yanhuang-style tea table, and the chair was also an exquisitely crafted Taishi chair. Although his old Western aristocratic attire looked completely incompatible with this set of tables and chairs.
"Sit wherever you want. It's in my dream anyway. I won't ask you to pay if you break something." Bruce waved his hand generously.
It's just that it might be more beneficial to his image if he didn't add the second half of the sentence.
Ye Zuxi and Abu were not restrained. They found a long bench and sat down casually.
"It's such a pity. If we could make a cup of tea at this time, this scene would be more stylish." Bruce said, looking at the tea set aside.
"I can't make tea." Ye Zuxi said honestly.
"Me neither." Bruce said naturally.
"That tea set is..."
"That is for sale, but unfortunately it has been placed here for a while. It's really strange. I heard that many nobles in the Golden Continent are very interested in dark old objects." Bruce knocked on himself.
of temples.
"But this is on the boat." Ye Zuxi replied after thinking for a while.
Although the things on the Lilith are indeed dazzling, the passengers are not all fools and they all spend their money in one go.
Is it reliable to buy antiques from a small shop on a ship that has no credibility?
What's more, the shop owner is still such a young man who seems to have no qualifications.
"Maybe." Bruce shrugged, not seeming to care that much.
"Thank you for helping me." Ye Zuxi put the topic back on track and thanked her.
Although he didn't actually need it very much, people helped him anyway. Ye Zuxi was not a stingy person in this regard.
"You're welcome. I actually watched it for a while, and then I thought it was a good time so I went up and shot the thing." Bruce said in a brisk tone.
"Looking for a while? How long?"
"Probably since you were drinking milk tea."
"What happened at that time had nothing to do with the scarlet monster."
"Yes, it has nothing to do with it. I was just taking a walk outside and then I found you. It's okay. You are a hero. It's normal to drink milk tea after saving people." Bruce said.
"Okay." Ye Zuxi did not continue to worry about the other party peeping at her. The other party could avoid this matter no matter what she said.
After a pause, he said: "Can you continue to help me?"
"Then let's see how big your 'gang' is." Bruce said as he sorted out the messy things on the table.
"Help me protect the shelter?"
"reject."
"Then work with me to solve this incident?"
"I'll think about it."
It is obviously more troublesome to solve the incident than to protect the shelter, but the issue of the shelter should not be considered in the latter?
Ye Zuxi thought for a while, and then said: "How about we get rid of the red thing just now?"
"Can."
"Then let's set off."
"Where to go?"
"Find a way to find out the details of that thing and solve it quickly. That thing gives me a very bad feeling. The best thing is not to keep it for a long time." Ye Zuxi said.
"'The night is full of dreams', this word is really suitable for this situation." Bruce said with a smile, then looked at Ye Zuxi and said, "That thing is the 'Son of Nightmare', the successor of the fragment of the god."
