In the afterglow of the setting sun, the sky is full of sunset clouds, and the water on the broad river surface is gradually darkening, reflecting the last blush of the setting sun.

Pingjiang Wharf is a small wharf. With the fall of dusk, the crowds dispersed, leaving only a few boats berthing at the shore, with sparse lights on.

At the corner of the pier, a two-masted sailboat was moored. The hull was not big, and the back half was a cabin. Perhaps the boatman was careless, and the sail on one mast was only half lowered, and it was blown swaying in the night wind.

On the deck of the sailboat, two men dressed as fishermen were staring at the two people who had just boarded the boat, with cautious and alert eyes.

Su Yu, who was pretending to be Ding Qi, restrained Luo Xunfeng who was pretending to be Nan Gongzheng with one hand, and looked back at the two in front of him expressionlessly.

——Tangular eyes, bearded, thick and short, muscular, based on physical characteristics, when he first boarded the boat, Su Yu quickly determined that the leader in front of him was Tie Yuer.The other person is slightly taller, with a scar on his left forehead, he should be Zhao Dayuan, the deputy who often helps the boat——

According to the information revealed by Xu Guan, when Su Yu boarded the ship, he had already exchanged code words with the ship. If there is no problem with his disguise, the only thing he needs to explain now is why he came back alone.

Sure enough, Tie Yu'er pointed to Luo Xunfeng beside him, and asked, "Is this Nangong Zheng? Why don't you see anyone else?"

"Yes. We met people from the government in the valley, and everyone else was killed." Su Yu replied in a hoarse and indifferent voice, slightly relieved.

When Tie Yu'er heard this, he immediately became nervous, retreated slightly, and asked, "People from the government? Why did the people from the government go to the valley? Have you been followed here?"

"I don't know, no." Su Yu said, dragging Luo Xunfeng straight past Tie Yu'er, "Let's set sail."

"Hey, I said you—" Tie Yu'er was dissatisfied with Su Yu's attitude, and reached out his hand from behind Su Yu's back to put his shoulder. Putting it on his shoulder, the person holding the sword was two steps away, his long and narrow eyes gleamed coldly, the hand that was not holding the sword was still holding on to Luo Xunfeng, Luo Xunfeng cooperated to play the role of a man caught by the sword. The prisoner who clicked his acupuncture points, glared at everyone, and felt strange about the scene in front of him.

"I hate when people touch me from behind." Su Yu said coldly.

Tie Yu'er stared at him, his Adam's apple moved slightly, and he swallowed.

"Oh, what did I say?" Seeing this, Zhao Dayuan hurried forward to smooth things over, "Brother Tie, Ding Qi doesn't like to explain, so let him go, anyway, Nangongzheng has already been arrested." He said As he said that, he tried to pull Su Yu's arm again, but Su Yu's hand holding the sword remained motionless, Zhao Dayuan smiled awkwardly, "Ding Qi, they are all of us, there is no need to use the sword."

Su Yu glanced at Zhao Dayuan silently, retracted the sword, sheathed it, and dragged Luo Xunfeng to the cabin, still coldly said, "I am guarding Nangong, give me a room."

"Go into the unlocked room and use it casually." Zhao Dayuan shouted behind Su Yu, and at the same time reached out his hand to stop Tie Yu'er who wanted to catch up.

"Ding Qi, you bastard, believe it or not, I will throw you into the sea to feed the fish later!" Tie Yu'er roared at Su Yu.

Su Yu looked back at him blankly, then pushed Luo Xunfeng into the cabin.

Tie Yu'er said to Zhao Dayuan, "Look at him like that, looking at Nan Gongzheng like a dog looking at a bone, lest we won't succeed. God is really short-sighted, why did he let this evil star come back alive, he is really a good man If you don’t live long, bad people can live for thousands of years.”

"Brother Tie, why do I think your words sound so awkward?" Zhao Dayuan plucked his ears and said.

Tie Yu'er glared at him and said, "What nonsense, let's sail!"

"Okay, I can finally go back to the island!"

……

With the anchor raised and the sail raised, the brig sailed away from the Pingjiang Wharf silently and headed for the mouth of the sea.

The new moon is like a hook, the night wind is gusty, the water waves are beating against the moving boat, and the sound of rushing water has been transmitted to the bumpy and shaking cabin.

In a room with a window in the cabin, Su Yu sat leaning against the window with his sword in his arms, as if closing his eyes and resting his mind.

The oil lamp on the table gradually burned out, leaving only the moonlight in the room.

Su Yu opened his eyes at this moment, and turned his head to look at the bed in the house. Luo Xunfeng, who was sticking to the goatee, seemed to be in a deep sleep. The narrow bed barely accommodated his slender body. Most of the blanket slipped off.

Su Yu got up, quietly walked to the bed, picked up the blanket, and gently covered Luo Xunfeng.

At this moment, the person on the bed opened his eyes, looked at him and said, "You were so vicious just now that your companions were stunned, are you trying to plot something wrong by treating the prisoners so favorably now?"

"..." Su Yu didn't expect Luo Xunfeng to wake up, he clenched his fist and coughed lightly on his lips, and said, "I want to bring Mr. Nangong back to the island intact to receive the reward. If you get sick from the cold on the way, then I am useless."

"Oh, that's it?" Luo Xunfeng rolled over and sat up, staring at Su Yu's eyes.

Because he was wearing a human/leather mask, Su Yu lacked expression on his face, he turned his eyes sideways, and let out a "hmm" in his nose.

"I don't think so." Luo Xunfeng said.

Su Yu turned her head, only to feel that the man's eyes were as clear as obsidian in the night.

"Come here, listen to what I'm saying." Luo Xunfeng said.

Su Yu sat by the bed, Luo Xunfeng waved to him, motioning him to come closer.Su Yu leaned over, Luo Xunfeng suddenly stretched out his hand, grabbed his neck, and pulled him towards him.

But at this moment, the ship suddenly shook violently, Luo Xunfeng bumped into the wooden railing at the head of the bed, and Su Yu bumped into his arms.

Immediately afterwards, there was a "bang bang" slamming on the door——

"Ding Qi, you did a good job! We are being followed!"

Su Yu quickly got up from Luo Xunfeng's arms, and said to him, "I'll go out and have a look."

Luo Xunfeng nodded, watched Su Yu open the door and leave the house, then stretched out his hands to rub the back of his head and chest, curled his lips, then turned serious, came to the window of the room, and looked out the small window.

The water surface outside the window is shrouded in night, the lone moon hangs high in the sky, the water and the sky are connected and boundless.The small window is very close to the water surface, and the ship is rapidly turning its course, the hull is tilted, the water waves are bursting, and the water droplets splash into the cabin, with a salty smell, presumably it has already entered the sea.

On the dark and vast water surface, there is a bright spot in the distance. If you look closely, you can faintly see the outline of a ship's bow, and as the ship they are on turns, the distant ship seems to be turning its course.

……

On the deck, Su Yu stood by the strings of the ship, looked at the ship in the distance, and asked Tie Yu'er and Zhao Dayuan, "How do you know that it is the ship following us?"

"It's not following our boat, who goes out to sea in the middle of the night? And I've been paying attention to it for a long time. When we speed up, it also speeds up, and when we slow down, it also slows down. Damn, you must be the one who hired me!" Tie Yu'er spat, and he Said while running on the deck, extinguishing all the lights on the ship one by one.

"What are you doing?" Su Yu asked.

"Hmph, Dayuan changed its course just now, and we will hit a rock when we drive straight down. We are very familiar with this waterway, and we can drive in the dark, so we will turn back the course immediately. It's pitch black, I I don’t believe Tiaozi can keep up with us.”

Su Yu's hands holding on to the side of the ship slightly tightened.

Hearing Da Yuan yell, "Left full rudder, turn around", the hull began to tilt violently, at the same time, Su Yu felt a gust of palm wind coming from behind, he quickly turned sideways, waved his hand to meet him, and his palms touched , The man who attacked was shocked back a few steps, and fell to sit on the deck.

"Are you attacking me?" Su Yu saw clearly that the person who made the palm was Tie Yu'er.

"Hehe, I'm just kidding." Tie Yu'er grinned sullenly, stood up slowly holding the deck, covered his shoulders and shook his hands, "We are all brothers, even if you point your sword at me, I will Not really pushing you into the sea to feed the fish, you say?"

Su Yu frowned, feeling as if she had offended a villain.

At this moment, Zhao Dayuan shouted to the two, "Look over there!"

The two looked up to the sea surface, and the ship that was following them came to a standstill obliquely behind, and the flickering lights were gradually sinking below the sea surface.

"Haha, I just said that this trick will work, I want to follow your grandpa Tie, and grandpa will let you sink the ship immediately." Tie Yu'er laughed loudly.

……

In the cabin, Luo Xunfeng watched as the last light of the ship in the distance disappeared from his sight, and he reached out and hammered the window frame, "Why are these idiots following so closely!"

……

On the deck, Tie Yu'er saw Su Yu walking towards the middle of the deck without saying a word, and couldn't help taking two steps back towards Zhao Dayuan, "What are you doing? Did you forget that Boss Sha forbids us to kill each other? If you dare to touch me , I will definitely be cleaned up when I go back!"

Su Yu raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, and said, "Since I've got rid of the pursuit, I'm going back." After saying that, he walked down the cabin.

Tie Yu'er wiped the sweat off his forehead, covered his shoulder again, and groaned in pain.

"I said Brother Tie, why did you provoke him?" Zhao Dayuan said from the side.

"I'm happy!" Tie Yu'er said.

"Hey, do you feel that Ding Qi is a little different today?" Zhao Dayuan asked.

"What's the difference?"

"Well, it feels like his waist has become thinner, and from the back, it seems that his buttocks are also more raised." Zhao Dayuan showed a wretched smile.

"Haha, I think it's not that he is different, but that you miss women."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The two laughed wantonly.

……

The boat sailed eastward, and when the sunset of the next evening was gradually sinking behind them, under the sunset glow, the few people set foot on the beach of Jiaozhu Island.

Jiaozhu Island is surrounded by sea on all sides, rolling hills and green forests all over the island, Su Yu escorted Luo Xunfeng, followed behind Tie Yu'er and Zhao Dayuan, and walked towards the center of the island. The mission has not been successful, and the support has been lost, so since last night, they have been especially careful in every move, but fortunately, they still have each other during this adventure.

Several people turned around in the forest, and came to a cottage built of wood and stone. The patrolling people at the gate of the cottage recognized them, and quickly opened the door. They came to the main hall of the cottage, and saw Gao Sitting The sand on the tiger-skin chair was soaring to the sky, and on both sides of the tiger-skin chair, several people with high status in the village sat in turn.

Su Yu observed them calmly, compared with the information in his memory, and speculated on the identities of these people.

Sha Chongtian was tall and burly, with his unkempt hair tied behind his head casually, and his short jacket half-opened, revealing his well-developed chest muscles.Although Xu Guan had already told Su Yu and the others that Sha Chongtian was not very old, Su Yu thought that he would see a ferocious reckless man, but he did not expect that Sha Chongtian's facial features were rough but correct. With cruelty and arrogance.

"Boss Sha, we have brought Nangong Zheng back." Tie Yu'er was the first to report the achievement.

Sha Chongtian and the few people sitting there asked about the process of their mission and the reason for the loss of personnel. Su Yu responded accordingly based on the principle of few people talking coldly. In the end, Sha Chongtian distributed rewards and asked them to go down to rest first. And left Nangongzheng alone.

……

A quarter of an hour later, on the edge of a cliff in Jiaozhu Island, Sha Chongtian threw a piece of bloody raw meat down the cliff. Soon the surface of the water was dyed bright red.

He turned his head and said to Nangong Zhengdao, who was escorted to watch this scene, "How about it, Mr. Nangong, do you want to borrow or not?"

Nangong closed his eyes, as if he was struggling hard in his heart. After a long time, he opened his eyes and said, "Man is a knife, I am a fish, everything is up to you."

"Haha, have a great time!" Sha Chongtian clapped his hands and said to his opponent, "Take Mr. Nangong to rest first."

Nangong was being escorted all the way back to the stockade, and locked into a relatively spacious wing room. Two guards stood still outside the door.At this time, a branch of a big tree not far away moved slightly, and no one noticed it. Since just now, a black shadow that had been following Nangongzheng secretly left quietly.

……

Sha Chongtian allowed those who came to seek refuge to choose their own residence within a certain range. Ding Qi's residence was close to the cliff, and he lived alone.

It didn't take long for Su Yu to find the wooden house on the cliff. He opened the door of the wooden house, and a musty smell came to his nostrils immediately.There was a sound of porcelain in the room, and a huge mouse jumped down from the table, knocking over the porcelain bowl on the table, and half of the dry and hard steamed bun rolled out of the bowl.

The furniture in the house is simple, with a few dirty clothes scattered on the chairs and the bed, showing the sloppiness of the owner of the house.

Su Yu didn't care, and went straight into the room, came to the bed, pushed all the messy clothes and bedding on the bed aside, and lay down on the bed with all the clothes.

He took out a piece of paper from his bosom. On the paper was the nautical chart he secretly drew from Tie Yu'er's room when he was on the boat. He took a few glances at the hidden reef and shoal, then carefully stuffed it into his arms and closed his eyes.

The sea breeze blew the doors and windows, making a "bang bang" sound. The man on the bed seemed to have fallen asleep peacefully. However, when the last bit of sunlight disappeared and the room was completely plunged into darkness, he opened his eyes suddenly, which were clear. sharp.

The night is the best cover for lurking.

Su Yu jumped up from the bed and was about to go out when there was a knock on the door——

"Master Ding Qi, are you there?" The voice between the youth and the teenager sounded outside the door, with a timid tone.

Su Yu's eyes moved slightly, he thought for a while, and opened the door.

Standing outside the house was a slender young man holding a pipa in his hand, his hair was hanging loosely behind his head, and he was wearing a loose and thin white shirt, which was wrapped around him like a bed sheet and was blown away by the evening wind wandering.Although his facial features are not very beautiful, but there is a kind of indistinguishable delicateness, and his eyebrows seem to have been trimmed, thin and long.Seeing Su Yu open the door, the young man hugged the pipa nervously and said, "Master Ding Qi? The village master sent Qing Huan to reward you tonight."

"Reward?" Su Yu was taken aback, then Xu Guan's voice emerged in his mind——

"There are no women on Jiaozhu Island. Sha Chongtian has hired five or six young ladies on the island. Among them is Li Lan, who is Sha Chongtian's favorite. He usually doesn't play with others. Other young ladies are often regarded as Give it as a reward to the people on the island. If you pretend to be Ding Qi and take Nangong Zheng back, maybe Sha Chongtian will give this kind of reward. You also know that sometimes we stay on the island for several months, If there is something to play with, everyone will generally not refuse."

"..." Su Yu's forehead twitched, feeling that trouble was coming.

"My lord?" At this moment, the boy named "Qing Huan" called him again.

Su Yu came back to his senses, and said in a deep voice, "I don't like men, you can go."

Unexpectedly, after saying this, Qing Huan suddenly panicked. She reached out her hand to pull him, but she didn't dare. She retracted her hand halfway, holding the pipa and begged, "My lord, don't chase Qing Huan away, if Shazhai The Lord knows that I didn't serve you well, so he will definitely punish me, not only me, but brother Li, I...you...please don't drive me away...you can let me do whatever you want..."

"Li Lan?" Su Yu raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, brother Li is usually in charge of us. If we do something wrong, the village master will punish him as well." Qing Huanchu said pitifully.

At this moment, Su Yu noticed that he was standing outside the door barefoot, his toes slightly curled up, and the insteps were covered with dust.

Su Yu sighed and asked, "Can I ask you to do anything?"

"Yes!" Qing Huan nodded hurriedly, shaking slightly.

"Come in." Su Yu said to him.

The oil lamp was lit in the messy room. With an indifferent expression on his face, the man sat casually at the table and stepped on the stool next to him.

Qing Huan sat across from him, embracing the pipa, plucking the strings on the shaft, holding them lightly and slowly, a melodious minor tune was sung from the strings, like the breeze on the sea, or the drizzle in the south of the Yangtze River, like a soft call to Liren , with a trace of sadness in Qingwan.

After Qing Huan played the song, she looked at Su Yu anxiously, trying to see some emotions on his face, but failed, just when he thought the man in front of him would not make any comments on the song, he suddenly heard The man asked, "What song is this? Why is it sad?"

Qing Huan was taken aback, and then hurriedly replied, "Brother Li taught me this. He said it was a ditty from his hometown. The tune is about the wife worrying about her husband who is away and looking forward to his return, so there may be some resentment. If adults don't like to listen , I will play another cheerful song for you."

"No need." Su Yu said, standing up impatiently.

Qing Huan also hurriedly stood up, at a loss for what to do for a while, he tentatively asked, "Sir, do you want to go to bed?"

"Well," Su Yu looked at him, pouted his mouth towards the bed, "you go to sleep first."

"Yes..." Qing Huan put the pipa on the table, and when he came to the bed, he didn't know which strap was pulled on his clothes, and the whole clothes on his body fell off his shoulders all at once.

"My lord, Qing Huan serves you..." The young man turned around while talking, before seeing Qing Su Yu's figure in the room, he felt numbness in his shoulders, then lost consciousness and fell to the ground.

Su Yu reached out to catch him, put him on the bed, looked at the dirty quilt, and dragged him over to cover the boy.

"Sleep well." He whispered, and left the room without looking back.
