The two days on the merchant ship passed by in a blink of an eye. Because of the presence of Qingyin and Kongmao, Xiao Lingxi and others did not live a stable life during this period. Even Yu Wenxuan, who was restless, no longer had the intention to go around the ship.
Hang around and stay in the room honestly every day.
Neither Xiao Yifeng nor Xiao Lingxi likes to have fun. Knowing that if they wandered around on the boat, Qingyin and Kongmao would probably spot their flaws, so they felt comfortable staying in the room.
It was rare for five people to get together and spend a few days leisurely. Xiao Lingxi took this opportunity to ask Ling Xuewei a lot of questions about cultivation.
Yu Wenxuan was restless in the room, and finally started the physical training that Ling Xuewei taught him.
Push-ups are not difficult for Yu Wenxuan, but when the number becomes two thousand, it becomes a little difficult for Yu Wenxuan to do them.
However, Yu Wenxuan gritted his teeth and persisted.
Over the past few days, Yu Wenxuan’s results from doing push-ups were also very gratifying.
He started with the most common push-ups of 2,000, and later performed 2,000 push-ups with one hand with a weight of 50 kilograms, and gradually increased the amount of training.
He himself also clearly felt that if he continued to follow Ling Xuewei's training plan, it would make considerable breakthroughs in all aspects of his body.
Although Huangfuchen and Ling Xuewei did not blatantly monitor Qingyin and Kongmao, they were always paying attention to the movements in the next room.
Ling Xuewei did not forget that strange dream, so she asked Bai Ze specifically about it.
"Bai Ze, do you remember that I fell asleep in front of this window before Lingxi screamed?" Ling Xuewei asked.
"Remember." Bai Ze nodded.
"How long did I sleep that day?" Ling Xuewei then asked.
"From the time you fell asleep to the time you were awakened by Miss Lingxi's voice, it lasted a total of one hour, eighteen minutes and twenty-five seconds." Bai Ze's answer was accurate to the second.
"Then..." Although Ling Xuewei already had the answer in her heart, she still asked unwillingly, "Then is there anything unusual after I fall asleep?"
"No." Bai Ze answered very simply, and then asked, "Did something happen?"
"Maybe I'm too worried..." Ling Xuewei said lightly.
Since Bai Ze didn't notice any abnormalities, it can only mean that it was just an ordinary dream.
In the following days, Ling Xuewei never dreamed of that fairyland-like place again.
During the past few days on the merchant ship, Ling Xuewei and others stayed in the room and never went out again.
However, Qingyin and Kongmao in the next room, since Xiao Lingxi discovered the coffin in their room and caused a commotion, the door of the next room has not been opened very often. For three meals a day, the two of them ordered the crew on the ship to bring the meals
After delivering it to the door of the room, they waited until the people left and made sure no one was standing outside the room before taking the food into the room.
Ever since they boarded the ship, Qingyin and Kongmao have not left the room even half a step!
Ling Xuewei and Huangfu Chen looked at these two people being so cautious, and were even more grateful that they responded appropriately and that they did not take drastic action. They refused to leave the coffin even a step and insisted on guarding the person in the coffin.
From the looks of it, they may have to risk their lives to complete this mission.
The walk from Shiyang City to Akabane Castle was not smooth. Due to the headwind, we arrived at the port of Akabane Castle much later than expected.
Ling Xuewei looked worriedly at the already dark sky outside the window and murmured, "It looks like it may be midnight before we reach the port of the Red Feather Sect's capital."
"Our luck is really bad!" Huangfu Chen also laughed bitterly.
Yu Wenxuan lay listlessly on the table. He was so bored that he wanted to roll on the ground. He should have got off the boat and started following Qingyin and Kongmao, but because of the damn wind direction, he was bored on the boat again.
A few hours.
"What's wrong with it in the middle of the night?" Yu Wenxuan puffed up his cheeks and said dullly, "Without the extra people waiting, it's clear where the two of them are going with the coffin, and we don't need to worry about bringing people in.
Lost him."
"Idiot!" Ling Xuewei cursed in a low voice, "The target is obvious, but if we follow us, we may be discovered at any time! And didn't they say that? They have bribed the crew on the ship and will wait for all the passengers to arrive.
They will leave with the coffin only after they get off the ship. The port in the middle of the night is not like it is during the day. There are cargo workers and boat passengers everywhere. It is so quiet at night that we have no way of tracking it."
Xiao Lingxi listened quietly on the side. Ever since she knew the identities of Qingyin and Kongmao, she had a feeling of powerlessness. It seemed that she couldn't get involved in this matter. If she really did, she would
Adding trouble to Ling Xuewei.
"And don't forget that every elder of Taihe Sect has a higher level of cultivation than us. The situation is already very unfavorable to us. It's late at night and without the cover of passers-by, it will only be even more unfavorable." Ling Xuewei sighed.
Take a breath.
"After we get off the ship, Xuewei and the others will go find an inn to stay and leave the tracking of Qingyin and Kongmao to me." Xiao Yifeng volunteered.
"I'll go with you!" Ling Xuewei disagreed with Xiao Yifeng's adventure alone, "It's too dangerous for you to go alone. At least I can cover each other with you."
"It's okay for me to be alone. In the dead of night, it's easy to be discovered if there are too many people!" Xiao Yifeng rejected Ling Xuewei's proposal without even thinking about it.
Yu Wenxuan puffed his cheeks on the side. He really wanted to say that he could follow him, but Yu Wenxuan was still very self-aware. Xiao Yifeng could not guarantee that he would not be discovered 100%. His cultivation level was only
It's embarrassing.
Seeing that the passenger ship was about to enter the port, Ling Xuewei and Xiao Yifeng were still arguing over the candidates to follow Qingyin and Kongmao.
"Plop"
"Plop"
"Plop"
There were three muffled sounds of heavy objects falling into the water. The sounds were so small that they did not attract the attention of anyone on the boat.
If Ling Xuewei and the others were not sitting next to the window, and their hearing was different from ordinary people, such a small movement would probably have been ignored.
Ling Xuewei and Xiao Yifeng, who had been refusing to give in just now, suddenly became silent.
At the same time, the person who frowned was Huangfu Chen.
They all saw the confusion in each other's eyes.
"Did you hear the sound just now?" Ling Xuewei asked with some uncertainty.
Huangfuchen nodded solemnly.
"There are three sounds in total, right?" Ling Xuewei then asked.
"Yes, it was indeed three times!" Xiao Yifeng's face also became extremely heavy.
"Oops!"
Almost at the same time, the three of them rushed to the door of the room together. Huangfu Chen opened the door first, and Ling Xuewei and Xiao Yifeng dodged and ran out quickly.
Huangfuchen followed closely behind.
Although Xiao Lingxi and Yu Wenxuan didn't know what happened, they knew something was wrong by looking at the faces of Ling Xuewei and others, so they ran out without even thinking.
They stopped in front of Kiyone and Kong Shige's room.
Yu Wenxuan and Xiao Lingxi stared at each other, wondering why Ling Xuewei had taken the initiative to expose herself now that she had repeatedly told them not to alert others.
Just rushing to the door of Qingyin and Kongmao's room, the people inside must have known about it, right?
Xiao Yifeng winked at Ling Xuewei, and Ling Xuewei stood behind Xiao Yifeng understandingly, and signaled Yu Wenxuan and Xiao Lingxi not to stand too close to the front, and to hide obediently behind them.
After Xiao Yifeng made sure that Ling Xuewei and others were under his protection, he and Huangfu Chen reached out and pushed open the doors of Qingyin and Kongmao's rooms.
The door was blocked from the inside, but Huangfuchen didn't push it open.
"You guys stand back a little." Huangfu Chen ordered.
Ling Xuewei and others quickly took a big step back to give Huangfu Chen some space.
Spiritual power continued to gather in Huangfuchen's hands. Huangfuchen stretched out his hand, and with a loud bang, the door opened.
Xiao Yifeng was on full alert. He was already prepared to be attacked by Qingyin and Kongmao after opening the door.
Xiao Lingxi knew that fighting was not her specialty, and standing too far forward would only cause chaos for everyone, so she stepped aside far away.
The three people had already set up their postures, just waiting for a fierce battle with the people in the room. However, when the door opened, the room was empty, and the coffin placed in the center of the room was nowhere to be seen.
"How is this going?"
"What about humans? Can they grow wings and fly?"
Everyone walked into the room and saw a big hole in the wall of the room, and on the other side of the hole was the rolling river.
Ling Xuewei stood next to the big hole in the wall. The hole was small enough to allow the coffin in the room to pass through smoothly.
"It's not that they grew wings and flew, but they jumped into the river with that coffin." Ling Xuewei's face looked extremely ugly.
"No way!" Yu Wenxuan also walked over.
He looked at the turbulent river and couldn't believe that someone would jump in to seek their own death.
"The other party is the Emperor Wu and the elder of the Taihe Sect. Don't underestimate them." Ling Xuewei said coldly, "The two of them carried a coffin and just swam in the water holding their breath for two or three hours. To them,
It’s not a problem at all.”
Xiao Yifeng walked to the big hole in the wall. The wind and waves on the river were even stronger at night, and since they were on the top floor of the merchant ship, the howling wind kept pouring into the room through the hole.
Even Xiao Yifeng had to be cautious when he leaned out and looked out. It was pitch black outside, and the cold river water...
It takes a lot of courage to jump from this place.
"Isn't the port coming soon?" Xiao Lingxi asked puzzledly, "Why did they have to choose this way to leave?"
