Chapter 29 A Prophecy

"How can your mother-in-law be so unpleasant to listen to?" Qingguo has never seen anyone curse someone to death as soon as she comes up.

Yun Xi heard something wrong in these words.

She stared at the old woman with a special totem painted on her face, and explained in a warm voice: "Mother-in-law, I am a widower, and there will be blood on my body... Where can someone die tonight?"

"On the boat!" The old woman grabbed Yun Xi's arm again and said with a look of horror: "On the boat! People are dead! People are going to die!"

He looked frightened, as if he had already seen the crime scene.

Yun Xi looked serious and wanted to ask more questions. Suddenly, a young girl dressed in the same dress as the old woman rushed over, stepped forward and stood between Yun Xi and the old woman.

"I'm sorry, my master is not very smart and always makes people talk nonsense." The girl who looked like a little goddess smiled apologetically at Master Yun Xi and pulled the old woman away without any explanation.

"Girl, I am proficient in medical skills. Why don't you let me look at the old woman's symptoms..."

Before Yun Xi finished speaking, she was interrupted again by the little goddess: "No, no, thank you, girl! Please go first!"

The little goddess pulled the old man down the boat ladder in a hurry, as if she was afraid that Yun Xi would catch up and question him.

"Who is she?" Qingguo curled her lips and said more and more angrily: "Young lady's medical skills are so rare that even in the Ming Dynasty, money is hard to come by. We took the initiative to treat her, but she took it upon herself to do it."

Yun Xi couldn't laugh or cry, "It's okay, let's go first."

She and Qingguo went on the deck, the old woman's words still lingering in her mind.

"What's wrong?" Lu Qingfan, who was waiting at the entrance of the deck, looked at Yun Xi's red wrist, and his face darkened.

He and Yun Xi were crowded away by the crowd on the stairs, and they simply waited at the entrance to the deck.

In just a moment, the little girl’s hand was scratched and turned red?

"It's okay." Yun Xi rubbed her wrist: "I was caught by a mother-in-law and said a few words. She was too strong."

"Our Miss Yun's skin is too delicate!" Leng Hai poked his head out from the side, "Where is our position? Someone ordered a lot of food in order to feed the big eater!"

Leng Hai teased his brother, and Leng Chuan, who was standing at the table, became embarrassed when he heard this.

"Wow, that's great!" Qingguo Xiaobaozi's face flushed with excitement, he cheered and walked towards Lengchuan, with only food in his mind.

The little maid is still at a carefree age and does not understand the relationship between men and women at all. Leng Chuan is really "glaring at a blind man".

Yun Xi glanced at Leng Chuan sympathetically, and Leng Hai chuckled and patted his brother on the shoulder.

"Eat." Lu Qingfan motioned for Yun Xi to sit down.

Five people sat around a round table to eat. The torch lamp above their heads was made into a bird's nest to illuminate the table. The dishes were also exquisitely arranged.

Yun Xi took a few bites carelessly and then frowned in thought, her distracted look falling into a pair of thoughtful black eyes.

A big palm calmly took a few bites of food into Yun Xi's plate.

When Yun Xi came back to her senses, her plate was already piled up with dishes. Lu Qingfan, who had been picking up dishes, saw Yun Xi looking at him in surprise, calmly retracted his hand, and asked lightly: "What are you thinking about?"

"

Yun Xi looked at the full plate dumbfounded: "I'm thinking about how to finish it."

Mr. Lu, you have given me too much.

"I'm asking you, what were you thinking about just now?" The deep voice deliberately emphasized the word "just now."

Yun Xi glanced around: the wealthy businessman and his wife were talking at the front across the table; five or six little Taoist priests were sitting in the cabin in the middle of the deck; and the daughter's daughter's family were far away at the stern, and they couldn't hear what they were saying.

.

The pair of masters and disciples did not come to eat, and Hua Jianying was not there either.

"I just met Grandma Yan Ling on the deck." Yun Xi drank tea and copied the totem on the old woman's face on the table.

Lu Qingfan was startled, "Goddess?"

"Almost...there are some differences."

Yun Xi pointed at the totem and said: "It is said that there are villages south of the East China Sea. The people there are good at prophecies and divination, and they can make prophecies from their mouths. Some unofficial histories and geographical records will call them 'Yan Ling Granny'."

How much ability does it take to make a prophecy come true?

"Isn't that a wizard," Leng Hai, who liked to listen to gossip the most, added in a low voice.

"The responsibilities of the wizard and the goddess are different, but they are both good at conveying the wishes of the gods." Yun Xi continued to explain: "Although Granny Yanling is a bit of a god, what she says has to make me care."

"What did she say?"

"She said," Yun Xi looked at her companions: "Someone will die on the boat tonight."

Everyone was silent.

The sea breeze at night carried a hint of coolness, and the girl's gentle words could not resist the creeping weirdness.

Leng Hai shivered in response, but Yun Xi couldn't hold back and laughed.

"Pfft, I don't know if it's true or not, so don't be afraid." Yun Xi covered her lips and smiled softly, stuffing the snacks in the green fruit plate into the little maid's mouth.

"My subordinates don't want to have a case." Leng Chuan rarely confided in his heart.

Can't you just go on your way properly?

"This matter is not up to us." After Leng Hai said this, he was glanced at by Lu Qingfan. He quickly closed his "crow's mouth", clasped his hands and prayed for everyone's safety!

"Everyone, did you like the dinner?" Hearty laughter came from far away, and two big men walked down from the deck on the third floor.

The leader with a rough smile was the boss of the ship, Lei Weiming, and the other Yun Xi and others were also familiar. It was the man who helped them lead the way to the wing.

Lei Weiming introduced himself to everyone, and pointed to the man who guided Yun Xi and others: "Ban Youwei is the instructor on my ship. He is responsible for patrolling the ship and taking care of the slaves. If you can't find me, you can look for him to do things."

Same!"

"Thank you, Boss Lei."

The wealthy businessman smiled and clasped his fists at Mr. Lei. Mr. Lei walked to the wealthy businessman's table and said with a smile: "Boss Peng, won't you bring me some good wine?"

"You old guy, you always worry about the good wine I have on board!"

Boss Peng said, pulling a key from his waist, "Youwei, still in the same position!"

"Hey, I'll come back as soon as I go." When the class teacher heard that there was a drink, he walked quickly down to the cabin with a smile on his honest face.

Yun Xi and his party sat closest to Boss Peng and others, and could hear the conversation of several people clearly.

"I asked about it when I was delivering snacks before. Boss Lei has a good reputation in the world. I heard that many Cao Gang sects are very considerate of him. The class teacher is an honest man. A boatman said that he is Boss Lei's most loyal person.

running dog."

When Leng Hai said this, he couldn't help but sneered.

"Stop talking nonsense."

Lu Qingfan stopped Leng Hai's "unauthorized evaluation", and Leng Hai continued: "The wealthy businessman's name is Peng Rong, and he seems to have started his business by selling aquatic products."

Peng Rong had a good personal relationship with Mr. Lei. It was said that every year he would take his wife to the capital for a swim and then return home by boat.

"Boss Peng's aquatic products business has made a lot of money." This time it was Yunxi's turn to comment.

"You rely on mountains to eat mountains, and you rely on water to eat water." Lu Qingfan turned around and glanced at Boss Peng, thinking that this guy must have been rich for a long time, otherwise he would not be able to eat such a big belly.

It was rare for everyone to sit quietly and chat, and also had a few glasses of wine.

Before leaving, Yun Xi looked specifically at Boss Peng's table. Boss Lei, the class teacher, and Boss Peng exchanged cups. They were already blushing from drinking, but Mrs. Peng was no longer at the table.

It is easiest for people to fall asleep when they are slightly tipsy.

That night, everyone had a good sleep.

It was getting slightly brighter, and hurried knocks on the door sounded from all over the cabin.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Killing! Killing!"



The noisy sounds disturbed her dream. Yun Xi frowned and opened her eyes, only to see Qing Guo having already opened the door in a daze.

"Master Lu, why are you so early?"

"Miss Yun, have you gotten up?"

"Nothing..."

"I'm awake." Yun Xi walked out wearing this coat.

Seeing Lu Qingfan's solemn face, her heart suddenly reached her throat.
