After looking at the water for a moment, Tong Zhongwu turned around and saw his sister, Tong Xiaowei, with Zheng Liyun's support, frowning. Her face was pale, and her tall and slender body was trembling.
"Little sister, how are you?" he asked with concern. Are you hurt?"
"It's…alright. Second Brother, don't worry.”Tong Xiaowei opened her eyes and said.
She tried her best to stand up straight and turned to Zheng Liyun with a bitter smile."Thank you, Aunt Zheng!"
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, she straightened her body and walked steadily to the rear cabin with a nonchalant expression. She walked into her own cabin and slammed the door shut. It was only then that she could not help but spit out a mouthful of blood that had been held in her throat for a long time.
A few hundred meters away from the golden ship, the water on the riverbank suddenly rippled slightly. Jiang Yuntian quietly poked his head out from the surface of the river. It was still alright tonight. Fortunately, he had practiced swimming hard in the river in his hometown in his early years, so he was quite good at it. Otherwise, it would be hard to say what the consequences would be if he fell into the water tonight.
He leaned against the river bank and turned back to look at the golden ship in the distance. He saw that the left and right sides of the ship were filled with people. Dozens of extremely bright Kongming Lanterns were sweeping around the undulating water surface.
Jiang Yuntian, who had swam far away, was already out of the range of the lights. It was impossible for him to be seen. However, it was best to be careful. To be safe, he dived into the river again and swam for about 70 to 80 feet before he came out of the water with a peace of mind. Then, he turned over and came ashore.
When he was in the water just now, he didn't feel that the weather was very cold. However, when he came out of the water and went ashore, he was blown by the cold wind. Jiang Yuntian couldn't help but shiver a few times. It was so cold that his teeth were trembling.
He stood in a dark corner on the shore of the ferry and took off all his wet clothes. He wrung them dry one by one and shook them a few times. When he felt that they were no longer dripping, he quickly put them on. Since he had already gotten the main information he wanted to know, he felt that there was no need to stay at the ferry. In that case, it was best to leave and return to the inn first.
Fortunately, it was already very late at night and there was not a single person on the street. He could walk back boldly. However, he was afraid that the attentive people on the ship would find any traces of him. Therefore, for the sake of safety, he would rather spend more effort and cross the ridge to go back.
Fortunately, he had made a trip back and forth during the day and was already familiar with the directions. Silang City was originally a small town, and there were only four roads. Therefore, it didn't take long for him to return to the Nine Fragrance Inn.
This sin was really not easy to bear. If it wasn't for the fact that he had been using Qinggong for a while, causing his body to feel some warmth, he would have suffered even more.
Everyone could imagine how miserable Jiang Yuntian looked at this moment. His entire body was drenched from head to toe. His long hair was soaked in water and stuck tightly to his head like noodles. His handsome face had been thrown onto the deck twice during the fight and had several scratches on his skin. Fortunately, it was dark now, so no one would see him. If it were in broad daylight and under everyone's watchful eyes, That Jiang Yuntian was really going to embarrass himself. He wished he could find a hole to hide in!
Jiang Yuntian flew over roofs and walls, leaping over houses and ridges, and his speed was extremely fast. After flying for about an hour, Jiang Yuntian finally arrived at the side of the wall of Four Seasons Fragrance Carriage Shop. He raised his breath and leaped over two walls in a row, quietly arriving outside the guest room he was staying in.
He searched his body and took out a key. He opened the door of the guest room quietly. After entering, he felt that the entire room was dark without a trace of light. He could not help but be slightly stunned. He remembered that before he came out of the room, he had only dimmed the lights a lot, but they had never been extinguished. Why did the lights go out completely when he entered the room now?
Although it was dark outside the room, there was still a faint moonlight. If there was no light in the tightly sealed room, it would be so dark that one could not see their fingers. It was so dark that one could not see anything.
Using his past memories, he carefully touched the table, then touched the lamp and the flame on the table. He did not know if it was because of his heart or if it was an illusion, but he heard a babbling sound in his ears, as if there was a dog or a cat lying in the house. Because his hands and feet were cold, he had lost his usual flexibility. He had to move back and forth a few times before he could barely light up the Fire Radiance.
After the fire lit up, he first turned around to check the situation in the room with the help of the light from the fire crease. It would have been fine if he hadn't looked at it, but when he did, he was so frightened that his three souls left his body and his seven spirits rose to the sky. His hand trembled and he almost threw Huo Yizi to the ground. It turned out that when he turned around to take a look, he suddenly found a person lying straight on the brick bed in the room.
The man was lying on the brick bed with his legs stretched out. However, the hem of his long coat was turned up to cover his face. At first glance, only half of his body could be seen. What was particularly surprising was that the lower hem of the man's long coat was covered with dried blood.
At this moment, it was late at night. Even if Jiang Yuntian had always been extremely bold, he could not help but feel his scalp go numb and be frightened when he saw such a terrifying image.
Jiang Yuntian couldn't help but let out an "ah" at first. Then, he took two steps back and shouted,"Who is it? Who are you?"
After the shout, the man seemed to be disturbed by the sound. He suddenly became alert from his dream and his body suddenly moved.
Seeing the person on the bed move, Jiang Yuntian was shocked again. He quickly transferred the Fire Brilliance Seed to his left hand, and his free right hand suddenly reached for his waist. With a clang, the Wishful Soft Sword that could cut through iron like mud was already in his hand. With this sword in his hand, he felt his courage increase greatly. With a tap of his foot, he had already pounced three feet away from the kang.
Relying on his treasured sword to boost his courage, he shouted angrily again,"Who exactly are you? Hurry up and tell me!"
As he spoke, he reached out his hand that was holding the sword and used the long sword in his hand to quickly slash at the hem of the long robe that covered the other party's face.
Although the person on the brick bed was in pain, a martial arts master with superb cultivation and profound attainments, even in his sleep, had an extremely special sensitivity to sudden weapons. As long as he was still breathing, he would not allow a blade to touch him.
