"Going to sea?" The old man with a long cigarette looked up at Xiao Shishilang, then shook his head and said, "I can't go to sea now, but I'm looking for death if I go out now."

Hearing this, Xiao Shishilang frowned. If it was true what the old man said, wouldn't it be dangerous for Lian Chengbi to go to sea? "I have to go to sea anyway? Is there any way?"

"What is the young man in such a hurry for? You know, old man, I have lived in the Bohai Sea for decades, and I will not lie to you about the situation on the sea. No one can come back from the sea these days with a full body. "Seeing that the other party insisted on going to sea after I said so, the old man couldn't help persuading him again.

But how can Xiao Shishilang listen to it? You must know that the exact news he got is that Lian Chengbi just went out to sea from here a few days ago. If it is true as the old man said, isn't the people at sea now very dangerous?

"Old man, you also said that you have lived in the Bohai Sea for so long, you should know who can sail for me now? I will pay enough for the boat in advance. I have a friend who just came from here two days ago. Going out to sea, I really don't trust him." Xiao Shishilang said sincerely to the old man who was still sitting on the pier in front of him.

When the old man who wanted to persuade him saw the real anxiety in Xiao Shishilang's eyes, he could only sigh and said: "The old man knows someone who can go to sea now, but this person has a bad temper, can he agree to me? Not guaranteed."

Xiao Shishilang was slightly pleased when he heard that, seeing the old man struggling to stand up from the pier, Xiao Shishilang hurriedly stepped forward to help him, until now Xiao Shishilang didn't notice that the old man was caught by the bamboo frame when he was sitting. The blocked leg was actually a prosthesis, and there was only a wooden stick supporting it below the knee.

After standing up, the old man refused Xiao Shishilang's support. Seeing that the other party noticed his prosthetic limb, the old man didn't care and said: "This foot is ugly, but it doesn't affect my life at all. The old man still has it." It’s useless to ask you young people to help.”

Someone next to me heard it and said, "This broken leg is Ye Lao's medal. I think Ye Lao traded this leg for a boatload of people. At least half of the people in our pier don't thank him." ?”

The old man just shook his head and smiled, but there was some pride on his face.

The two of them came to a dock after walking for a while. The gate of the dock was closed tightly. It looked like a dilapidated house that had been in disrepair for a long time. Is there anyone still living in this place?When he was so doubtful, he saw the old man knock on the door a few times with the cigarette stick in his hand.

When Xiao Shishilang thought no one would open the door, the door creaked and opened from the inside, and a man with a beard came out.

"Uncle Ye? What's the matter?" The man looked at Old Man Ye suspiciously.

"Xiao Shen, it's like this. What about this young man? He wants to go to sea right now, and you know that going to sea is not courting death? At our pier, you are the only one who can take people out to sea in this season and ensure that they come back safely. .” The old man said helplessly to the man in front of him.

Xiao Shishilang kept looking at the man after he came out. He vaguely felt that this man was not simple, at least not like an ordinary fisherman as he showed.

Narrowing his eyes slightly, Xiao Shishilang thought to himself, "This man's martial arts is not bad." '

And in the same way, the man called Xiao Shen was also looking at Xiao Shishilang. For a long time, when Xiao Shishilang and even the old man Ye thought he was going to refuse, Xiao Shen agreed, which was not what Xiao Shishilang imagined. Resisting like that, after pondering for a while, he agreed.

"Don't worry if you promise me. Otherwise, you will never return to the sea at this time. After that, you can talk about the next thing. I'm just giving an introduction, old man. Let's go." The way he came from limped away, smoking the dry tobacco in his hand while walking.

Turning his gaze back from Mr. Ye, Xiao Shishilang asked directly: "Can we set off now? How much do you need for the boat?"

Nodding his head, Xiao Shen made a one-word comparison.

"1000 taels? Or 1 taels?" Xiao Shishilang asked straightforwardly.

"No." For the first time, Xiao Shen spoke, his voice didn't sound as old as his appearance, and then Xiao Shen said the meaning of his gesture: "Just remember to promise me one thing."
