The two of them responded hurriedly, thanking each other one after another.
After finally seeing off the village chief, he breathed a sigh of relief.
outside the door-
The village chief summoned a young man.
"Go and send a message for me..."
After a cup of tea——
"The village chief wants to invite us to dinner?"
Jiang Yunluo looked at the person she found with some surprise.
"Yes, it's tonight. Remember the time and don't delay."
The middle-aged man seemed to look a little envious. After saying that, he turned around and left.
Jiang Yunluo stood at the door for a long time without moving, her eyes darkening.
The old man had been glaring at her before.
How could he suddenly invite her to dinner with such enthusiasm?
There must be something fishy!
but……
The other party has come to her door, but she is not afraid to see what tricks an old man can play with her on this island with poor supplies!
at dusk--
Jiang Yunluo and Ling Fengshuo packed up and went to the appointment together.
There was nothing special here, and neither of them had a good impression of the village chief, so they simply went to the door empty-handed.
As soon as I arrived at the door, I heard the smell of vegetables.
"Here we go, just in time, the dishes are ready."
The village chief just walked out of the kitchen carrying dishes.
When I saw the two of them, their attitude was not warm, but they were not as fierce as they were that day. They said hello calmly.
Jiang Yunluo and Ling Fengshuo looked at each other and walked in together.
A quick scan of the table revealed some light side dishes.
With fish, shrimp and shellfish.
"I heard that you spread the word about how to eat shellfish."
The village chief suddenly said to Jiang Yunluo and motioned for the two of them to sit down.
"Yes."
Jiang Yun nodded and sat down.
The table is not big.
After only three or four dishes, it was almost full.
The dishes and chopsticks also looked a bit old.
When the village chief saw that neither of them moved, he took the initiative and said, "Try it and see how my skills are."
Having said this, it was really hard to evade, so Jiang Yunluo took the initiative to pick up the chopsticks.
A flash of silver light flashed between the chopsticks and her palm.
Those were one of the few silver needles on her body.
The rest has long been washed away by the sea.
Seeing that the tip of the needle did not change color, Jiang Yunluo used her eyes to indicate that Ling Fengshuo could rest assured.
Then he became even more puzzled.
Since you don't want to poison them, then what is the purpose of setting up this Hongmen Banquet?
You can't just suddenly feel guilty and want to make amends, right?
thinking about—
Jiang Yunluo heard the village chief speak slowly: "I heard that you two are building a ship and want to leave here."
"Yes."
Jiang Yunluo did not deny it.
In a place as big as the beach, you will be discovered sooner or later, so there is no need to lie.
Then the village chief said again: "I went to see Crescent Moon today."
"how is she?"
Jiang Yunluo's heart tightened.
The village chief's eyes flickered for a moment, but his expression did not change. He just said lightly: "She is still young and doesn't understand anything. It's just that her parents... are a little reluctant to let go after all."
"If that's the case, then..."
Jiang Yunluo wanted to propose canceling the festival again.
But the village chief didn't get angry like before. Instead, he took out a jar of wine from under the table.
"Rules are rules."
He poured a drink for each of the three.
After all, he didn't persuade him to drink.
He just picked up his own and drank it all.
He looked at the two of them again.
Jiang Yunluo picked up the wine glass and quietly explored the liquid with her fingertips.
Still no problems.
Just as he was about to drink it, his hand was suddenly empty.
"My wife doesn't know how to drink, so I'll do it."
Ling Fengshuo also drank it all in one gulp.
It's a courtesy.
The village chief didn't say much.
In this way, Jiang Yunluo also acquiesced that she would not drink.
The old man's purpose is not clear yet.
Let's see what he wants to say first.
thinking about—
Jiang Yunluo simply got straight to the point: "The village chief might as well tell you why you came to us today."
The village chief paused as he poured the second glass of wine.
Then put it down.
His profound eyes swept over the two of them quietly.
At the last second when Jiang Yunluo was about to lose her patience, he finally spoke slowly.
"I think... the rules are the rules. The two of them saved Yue Ya'er by accident, and Yue Ya'er has already begged for mercy for the two of them and lives in the village. Just to return the favor, don't do other things anymore. .”
"I know that you two are from outside the island, and you both have some abilities, but... you don't know that once the fire water rises, it will engulf the entire island. No matter where you two are, you will not be able to escape. This calamity, it is good for everyone, otherwise...I am afraid that the whole village will become your enemy, and I cannot persuade you alone."
Jiang Yunluo's eyes dimmed and she almost laughed angrily.
This old man obviously does it for their own good.
In fact, they are afraid that the two of them will use other methods to save people, and there will be complications!
Others are polite before fighting.
But he did the opposite, fighting first and then etiquette?
I was thinking about——
He then said slowly: "You two must also know that there is white fog surrounding this island all year round. It is not easy to go out to sea. If you can't leave for a while, I can make the decision after this incident. How about giving the house at home to you two directly to ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing in the village?"
The premise is that after this incident.
Jiang Yunluo heard what he meant.
But it feels more and more strange.
This old man... is this all he wants to say today?
Logically speaking, her and Ling Fengshuo's identities were not exposed, and even if they were, they might not be able to recognize them.
You shouldn't dare to make him so afraid.
Could it be that when they were rescuing people that day, both of them exposed their skills?
Is he just trying to win over and appease him?
It doesn't seem right either...
Jiang Yunluo couldn't think of the reason, so she simply stood up.
"Village Chief, I understand what you mean, but you have promised me before. The time has not come yet, so I will give it a try. Time is running out now. I'd better save this meal until I solve the fire and water matter and eat it when I celebrate. !”
After that, she turned and left.
The village chief did not stop him.
He just sat there, watching the two people walk away, and silently poured another glass of wine.
Then he raised one hand and spilled all the wine on the ground.
on the way-
Jiang Yunluo still felt that the more she thought about it, the more wrong it became.
But I don’t know why, but I can’t concentrate my thoughts.
The people around him were also unusually quiet and didn't speak much the whole way.
"Ling Fengshuo, you..."
Jiang Yunluo couldn't help turning her head to look at him.
When he saw it, he was immediately shocked.
Ling Fengshuo's brows were furrowed, as if he was trying his best to suppress something.
His face was also dyed abnormally red!
"How can you……"
Jiang Yunluo subconsciously reached out to check the temperature of her forehead.
But before I met——
However, his wrist was grabbed by Ling Fengshuo, and his feet suddenly flew away!
He actually hit him and hugged him!
"Ling Fengshuo!"
Jiang Yunluo was startled.
Before I could struggle, I felt the wind whistling past my ears!
"Bang"!
The door was kicked open by him!
Immediately afterwards, the two entangled figures fell on the bed together!
