The two chatted together for a while. Miao'er seemed to be in a hurry to go back, fearing that she would be scolded by her grandfather if she revealed her secret, so Yue Cangqiong sent her to the entrance of the village and said goodbye. (·~)
Back on the Tianyuan chariot, the banquet had already dispersed. Sikong Chen and Han Tong'er came back very drunk. They were leaning on each other's shoulders and talking and laughing. It seemed that their relationship was improving day by day.
Yue Qingqiong told them not to go too crazy, and sent them back to the house one by one. Then he went to bed alone, thinking about his next plan. Unknowingly, it was getting brighter, and he spent the whole night thinking about it.
.
Yu Haishen led the gang over early in the morning and started to modify the ship. Yesterday, he discussed with Xia Houyan and planned to install some mechanisms on the chariot. After it goes into the sea, the wheels can be folded up to reveal the specially made ship, which can hold up the entire chariot.
, sails will also be erected on the chariot, which can stir up the wind and increase power.
To this end, Yu Haishen also selected special wood and rushed to build a sea-going ship for Yue Cangqiong and the others. Finally, it was supplemented with a ship membrane customized by the Seven Seas Gang, so that it could gallop on the infinite sea without fear of wind and waves.
After discussing these matters, Yue Cangqiong left Xia Houyan and others to supervise, while he took Sikong Chen with him to find Elder Liang for a chat.
The two were walking on the road, and Yue Cangqiong teased him: "Looking at you and Tong'er, your relationship seems to be unusual. Tell me, did something happen last night?"
Sikong Chen blushed and said anxiously: "Look what you said, I've been fooling around with you since I've been with you. Even if my head is stuck in the waistband of my pants, why are we still talking about our children's affairs? Tong'er and I do get along somewhat, but it's just
It's just a matter of discussion, it doesn't mean anything else."
The two of them were joking, and they had already arrived at Elder Liang's residence. Suddenly there was a noise, and Elder Liang was heard saying furiously: "It's so outrageous, Miao'er, you actually went to the sea secretly behind my back. If Mrs. Zhang hadn't accidentally met me,
When we talk about it, I don’t know that I have been deceived by you for so long.[]"
"Grandpa, Miao'er really didn't mean to lie to you." Miao'er's voice sounded immediately, obviously crying, as if she had been greatly wronged.
It seems that Miao'er's private trip to the sea was discovered. Yue Cangqiong was hesitating whether to go up to break up the fight, but the father and daughter had already argued and came out of the room. Elder Liang said angrily: "From now on, for one month
You are not allowed to step out of the room, and if you don't listen to grandpa, grandpa will never care about you again."
"Grandpa!" Miao'er was so anxious inside the house that she pulled the door hard, but Elder Liang closed the door with great force and then locked it. She turned around and saw Yue Cangqiong and the two of them, waved her hands and said, "Everyone, let's go. I am now
If you're in a bad mood, don't look for trouble."
Yue Cangqiong knew that there was no point in talking at this time, so he pulled Sikong Chen around and left, but he did not go back immediately. He walked around in a circle to the back of the house, patted the wall quietly, and said to the inside: "Miss Miao'er
, can you hear me? It’s me, I met that big brother at the beach last night.”
There was no movement for a long time, and when Yue Cangqiong was almost disappointed, a reply finally came through the wall: "Brother, why are you here? I am locked up at home by my grandpa and I am not allowed to go out."
Yue Cangqiong hurriedly said: "I saw everything just now. Miss Miao'er, you must not be too sad. Your grandfather may just be angry for a moment. If he finds a chance to persuade you, he will no longer be angry."
"Really? Grandpa seems to be really angry this time. Miao'er really can't understand why grandpa doesn't allow me to go to the sea." Miao'er said helplessly inside.
"I think your grandpa must have some difficulties.[~]" Based on the observation just now, Yue Cangqiong felt that Elder Liang must have some unhappiness in his heart to be so stubborn, so he comforted Miao'er and said, "Miao'er
If you believe what Yue said, I am willing to help you find a way to persuade your grandfather, and I hope you, Miaoer, can be patient for a few more days."
Miao'er seemed a little surprised inside, then nodded hesitantly and said, "That's troublesome, brother."
It's no trouble for Yue Cang Qiong to connect, and I thought that if I could help you with this, I might be able to convince Elder Liang to agree to let Miao'er go to sea with him, so that he would have all the helmsmen and chefs to go out to sea.
He said goodbye immediately, Sikong Chen said with a bad smile: "Lao Yue, you are wrong! How can you be so enthusiastic about helping other girls?"
"Look what you said!" Yue Cangqiong gave him a fierce look, "What kind of person am I? I just wanted to take this opportunity to invite Miao'er on board to be our companion. Do you still want to eat something bad?
Do you want dry food? Miaoer is good at cooking and is proficient in sea routes, which will be of great benefit to us when we go to sea."
"But how do you convince that old man? I think Elder Liang is short on money." Sikong Chen also said worriedly at the same time.
"There is always a chance for this. Let's inquire about it first." Yue Cangqiong immediately returned to the Qihai Gang. Yu Haishen and his people were busy building a sea ship. Xia Houyan was supervising the work beside him, and he seemed quite satisfied.
"What do you think, you still don't want to invite me?" Xia Houyan said with a smile when he saw the two people coming back.
"It's not just that I can't help but it's even more troublesome." Yue Cangqiong said a little about what happened just now.
Yu Haishen came over and heard that Elder Liang had locked up his granddaughter. He shook his head and said: "This old man Liang has always had such a weird temper. I didn't expect to lock up Miao'er. It's really..."
Yue Cangqiong heard what he meant and seemed to know something. He quickly grabbed Yu Haishen and asked, "Gang Leader Yu, it seems that you know a lot about Elder Liang. Tell me."
"This..." Yu Haishen hesitated for a moment and finally said it.
It turns out that Elder Liang was a powerful figure in the Infinite Sea, and personally facilitated the establishment of the Seven Seas Gang. The so-called Seven Seas Gang was an alliance composed of several maritime gangs in the Infinite Sea. There were five heroes who founded the alliance that year.
, Elder Liang is one of them. Later, after the Seven Seas Gang was formed, it once subdued many giant sea lords and annexed several major islands on the sea. Finally, it formed the scale of the Seven Seas Gang today, so that even on land, several major gangs
Don't dare to take advantage of the Nanami Gang easily.
However, some changes occurred later, and the Qihai Gang began to split, and several elders separated into separate factions. The most famous one was the murder of Elder Liang.
Speaking of Elder Liang, he was originally a hero who was proficient in sea routes and familiar with shipping routes. However, unlike his father, he had no interest in the affairs of the Seven Seas Gang and only liked adventure at sea. Later, he was entrusted by others to go on a long sea trip, but
He fell into the opponent's trick and was buried under the sea. This incident became a mystery in the Seven Seas Gang.
Some people say that it is the result of internal intrigue among several elders of the Qihai Gang. Some people say that it is a trick by outsiders to weaken the Qihai Gang. The specific truth has not been answered yet, but since then, Elder Liang has withdrawn from the Qihai Gang and no longer interferes with the members of the gang.
to raise his only granddaughter.
Perhaps because the tragic death of his daughter-in-law was such a shock, Elder Liang no longer trusted anyone and refused to take outsiders out to sea. He only made a living fishing on the beach and never went to sea again.
The reason why he was so strict with Miao'er was probably because he was afraid that his granddaughter would follow her parents' retreat. After listening to Yu Haishen's narration, Yue Cangqiong finally understood the cause and effect. It seemed that the root of everything lay in the tragic death of Elder Liang back then.
.
So this is where Elder Liang's knot lies. Yue Cangqiong already had some concerns in his mind, so he thanked Yu Haishen and went to visit his mother and Su Yanzi first.
Xiao Wanyin was resting in the chariot at the moment. Su Yanzi was chatting with her. When she saw Yue Cangqiong coming back, she asked: "How is it? Or did you return without success?"
Yue Cangqiong smiled and said: "It's a bit difficult to handle, but I won't give in so easily."
But Sikong Chen interrupted and said, "Go and find someone else. I'm starving. When will dinner be served?"
Han Tong'er popped up from inside and said, "You know how to eat, can you eat the grilled fish I'm making?"
Yue Cangqiong and Sikong Chen stretched out their noses and smelled it. There was a strong smell of burning, and they hurriedly said: "You don't know how to cook fish in there?"
Han Tong'er pinched her waist and said, "Why not? Boss Yu specially sent a basket of good fish, and I'm cooking it on the fire."
"Oh my god, are you going to burn this place down?" Sikong Chen excitedly walked over to stop her.
Yue Cangqiong Te helplessly said to Xiao Wanyin and Su Yanzi: "Mother, Yanzi, why didn't you stop me?"
Su Yanzi smiled and said, "Do you think we can stop it?"
Yue Cangqiong saw that the two of them were smiling a little strangely. He quickly ran in and saw that there was a table of dishes. It turned out to be a fish feast that had been prepared long ago. The burnt smell just now was caused by Luo Lan's illusion.
Deceive them.
So he was held down by everyone and forced to have lunch, so he could only put it down for the time being.
