The years when I opened a coffin shop in the world of Ninth Uncle

Chapter 154
The next day.

Zhou Lianqing shook her head, and slowly got up from the bed, the snow-white silk quilt slipped off her chest, revealing a fairer spring color.

Down, nightdress cover.

What happened last night?
She slowly recalled that in a trance, she came to Taolin and met a guy covered in Gu worms.

At a critical juncture, Mr. Xu rescued him...

But the Gu worm was poisonous and bit itself.

She looked suspiciously at her calf, which was as white as ivory, long, white and tender, without any scars.

strangeness.

Suddenly, her pretty face turned pink.

I was disturbed by the toxin, and I did something that I would not do in normal times. It seemed that I hugged Mr. Xu when I was in a daze.

Thinking of this, Zhou Lianqing's heart was in turmoil, and she lay on the bed again, carefully recalling last night.

Nor is it a girl who is about to marry. As a mature woman, if something happens, she will not cry.

On the contrary, there will be some joy.

Due to her status as an elder and her reserve, no matter how much love she has in her heart, she will not do anything.

But now even if he did something, it could be blamed on poisoning, and then it would be a matter of course, from Mrs. Zhou to Mrs. Xu.

but……

Looking at her intact nightdress, she couldn't believe it, and began to doubt her own charm.

Is he really a man?

Didn't even do anything!

"Come on!"

Xiaoyu, the maid who had been guarding the door early, came in when she heard the sound, and waited by the bed: "Ma'am, what's the matter with you, are you going to wash up?"

Zhou Lianqing sat up and asked, "Where is Mr. Xu?"

Xiaoyu replied, "I went out early in the morning."

"Oh..." Zhou Lianqing responded, and pondered: "Did he...did he say where he was going and when he would be back?"

The maid Xiaoyu shook her head: "Mr. Xu asked me to call Madam back, saying that he has gone to sea and won't be coming back anytime soon."

Zhou Lianqing's heart skipped a beat, her straight back collapsed in an instant, and she muttered to herself, "Why didn't he tell me in person, could it be that he was going to..."

"By the way, where is Master Hongguang?"

The servant girl Xiaoyu said in a low voice: "Master Hongguang hasn't returned all night, but Mr. Xu said before leaving that you don't need to worry, he and Master Hongguang will come back safely."

For some reason, the maid Xiaoyu always felt a little strange.

Whether it is Mr. Xu who ordered in the morning, or the wife in front of him at this time, they are all extremely abnormal.

Zhou Lianqing sighed, and after a while, she quickly adjusted her mood and said in a deep voice, "Notify the spare car, I have to go to the company immediately."

Guo Guanglong is dead now, and while the Guo family is still fighting among themselves, it is necessary to formulate a strategic idea as soon as possible to nibble as much as possible.

With this in mind, she rushed to the company immediately. As soon as she arrived at the company, she heard from the ruddy secretary that the Huo family had come to discuss cooperation.

……

The endless sea is calm and calm, only seagulls soaring in the air, skimming the sea from time to time to hunt for food, breaking the dullness.

Xu Ping stood on the deck with a complicated expression.

He was thinking about whether beasts were inferior to beasts, which one was stronger.

It must be a lie to say that I was not tempted last night. No matter how high a person's morality is, the innate desire is still hard to give up.

The beauty was in his arms, and there was still a moment of throbbing.

But after the throbbing, looking at the delirious Zhou Lianqing, he still made a decision that was worse than a beast.

Now, a little regretful.

On the deck next to him, Wang Hongguang was sitting on the ground, dozing off with his head shaking.

This one is different from him. I had a dinner with Miss Secretary yesterday. As for what happened next...

Anyway, Xu Ping found him on the hotel bed.

"The secretary seems to be called Ruoyun!" Xu Ping finally remembered the secretary's name, and Wang Hongguang also opened his eyes when he heard the voice, and said with a pair of panda eyes: "Brother Xu, I didn't force you yesterday. I am in free love with her."

Xu Ping glanced at him: "I didn't say anything."

Wang Hongguang chuckled and squinted his eyes, as if he was still thinking about it. After a while, he cursed again: "This dead dragon is disturbing my good business. Let's see how I deal with it."

Huo Zhinan sent the news yesterday that the unknown beast entrenched near the ghost-faced bandit's den should be Jiaolong.

Xu Ping found Wang Hongguang early in the morning and immediately went to sea.

After Wang Hongguang finished cursing, seeing that Xu Ping didn't respond, he got up and said with a sneer: "Of course, with my own strength, I'm almost there. Brother Xu still has to step in."

"Stop talking nonsense..." Xu Ping put aside his messy thoughts, and said in a deep voice, "I'll lure the dragon out first when the time comes, and you all play by ear."

Wang Hongguang nodded, then turned to look around, and asked, "Hey, where's Brother Huo?"

This boat belonged to Huo Zhinan, and he also accompanied him to the sea.

"Hey~"

Suddenly there was a strange cry from behind, and the two looked back, only to see Huo Zhinan walking out with a soft face, "Sorry, I'm trying to fuse the power of the demon fox."

These days, it is not easy to find a few monsters with no evil spirit and full of spiritual energy.

He was obviously a middle-aged man, but he had a charming face, and the constant charm made the sailors on the boat look sideways.

Xu Ping discovered through the qi-watching technique that Huo Zhinan's obsessive attitude was caused by the white fox entering his body that night.

After thinking for a while, Xu Ping persuaded: "Brother Huo, it's not a trivial matter to lure a fox into your body. If you don't do it well, you will easily lose your mind and turn into a walking corpse."

"I know!"

Huo Zhinan nodded, and said in a gentle voice: "Our Huo family has passed down the art of restraining spirits for generations. It is not difficult to fuse and drive these foxes. It's just that there are too many foxes fused at one time, so there are some side effects."

Wang Hongguang was fascinated by his voice, so he knew how powerful it was.

"Brother Huo, stop talking, I can't take it anymore." Wang Hongguang's face was flushed, and beads of sweat were already visible on his forehead.

Huo Zhinan immediately shut up, shook his head, and entered the cabin alone.

After he left, Wang Hongguang let out a heavy breath, wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, and said with lingering fear, "It's also fortunate that brother Huo is a decent person, otherwise, women all over the world would suffer."

Looking at Wang Hongguang, who was terrified and envious, Xu Ping shook his head and said, "Before leaving, your master gave you a treasure for self-defense, why didn't you take it out and use it?"

Wang Hongguang touched his chest and smiled: "Of course good things should be used at the most critical time."

……

Three poles in the sun.

A small island appeared on the sea level, and Xu Ping could see it as far as the eye could see.

This island is very strange, half of it is full of greenery, with green grass and trees, while the other half is full of strange rocks and no grass grows.

"Master Huo, we're here."

The captain yelled into the cabin, and Huo Zhinan came out immediately. At this time, the soft and charming aura on his body decreased, and it was obvious that he was almost fused, and his control was enhanced.

Xu Ping, who was standing on the deck, turned his head and said, "Brother Huo, don't get too close, so as not to startle the snake, I'll go to the island to check it out first."

Huo Zhinan nodded: "Mr. Xu, be careful, um... my people found scales on the other side of the island before, and only then did I know that Jiaolong was hiding here."

On the side facing them, there was a green forest. When the boat got closer, Xu Ping jumped off, riding the waves, and landed on a white sandy beach.

This place used to be the hideout of ghost-faced thieves, but there are some buildings by the sea, a row of wooden houses and a watchtower.

But this time it was empty.

"Brother Huo said that the location where the dragon scale was found is on the other side, but there is no guarantee that the dragon will not go elsewhere..." Xu Ping was careful and flew over.

Walking in the dense forest on the island, Xu Ping was surprised to find that there were no living things here, not even a single seagull, the most common bird on the island.

There must be something weird about this island, perhaps, this is also the reason why that dragon came here.

Xu Ping thought to himself.

Strangely, passing through the dense forest and coming to the middle of the island, it is like a boundary line. On the other side, there are all black strange rocks.

There is definitely something wrong with this island.

Xu Ping has searched for the records in the Qing Nang Sutra, but found nothing.

Such a strange scene cannot be formed naturally, but there is no record in the Feng Shui book.

Just as he was wondering, Xu Ping had already stepped into the other side of the island. Suddenly, he heard a strange sound, and a large black cloud rushed towards him in the distance.

Seeing the extremely fast speed of the black cloud, which seemed to be running towards him, Xu Ping turned pale with fright. When the black cloud got closer, he suddenly discovered that the black cloud turned out to be strangely shaped crows.

I saw these crows all had ferocious grimaces and scarlet eyes. At a glance, they were no different from those pirates wearing ghost faces.

Knowing that these crows came from no good, Xu Ping stood still, slipped his sleeves, and held two daggers with both hands.

The copper coin sword bloomed with dazzling golden light, and the willow wooden sword was full of thunder. The aura on his body rose rapidly, and immediately forced the black cloud-like crow to stand still.

A flock of crows stopped more than ten meters away from Xu Ping, screaming wildly at him with sharp beaks on their ferocious ghost faces.

"Clap!"

Just as he was staring intently, suddenly, a mask flew out from the black cloud formed by crows, which was exactly the same as the one on the face of the Ghost Face Bandit.

What do you mean?
Wear it to enter the island?

Then why didn't Brother Huo mention it before?

After thinking up to this point, without saying a word, Xu Ping cut out two sword lights, golden light and thunder burst out, exploding countless bloody flowers among the black crows.

The crazy black crow obviously didn't expect that Xu Ping would dare to attack first, and rushed over in a swarm, encircling Xu Ping in the middle.

Protecting the body with golden light, thunder swept across.

Xu Ping surrounded tens of thousands of black crows by himself, and wherever the thunder passed, all the black crows were turned into dust.

It is only a matter of time before they are resolved.

In order to understand the doubts in his heart, Xu Ping directly used the avatar outside his body. One avatar rushed out of the black crows, flew directly to where it came from, and went straight to the boat by the sea.

Standing at the bow of the boat, Wang Hongguang and Huo Zhinan saw a figure approaching quickly, and they were all on guard. When they saw that it was Xu Ping, they were both overjoyed.

"Brother Xu, have you found any traces of Jiaolong?"

Xu Ping's avatar didn't answer, but when it landed on the deck, the ten fingers of both hands stretched out the lightning filaments, wrapping Huo Zhinan tightly.

"Mr. Xu, what do you mean? When did Huo offend you?"

Huo Zhinan was surprised.

Xu Ping's avatar has half the strength, and can also be controlled by Xu Ping's thoughts, "Let me ask you, you said that your people were on the other side of the ship and found the scales, how did you get in, and what are the scales?" How did you find out?"

Huo Zhinan was shocked on the spot, frowned and said: "They are all ordinary people in the family, and the sailors who boarded the ship were also on board."

"Rich!"

Huo Zhinan, who was surrounded by lightning, yelled, and a sailor hiding under the cabin immediately crawled out.

He stood in front of the three tremblingly.

"You tell what happened after you boarded the ship that day, and you don't allow any omissions."

Huo Zhinan also understood at this time, presumably after Xu Ping landed on the island, he discovered some problems and misunderstood himself.

The sailor named Fugui also knew that the people in front of him were about to do a great thing, so he hurriedly said: "Bosses, after I went to the island, I searched on the other side of the island, which is the side where there is no grass. Found two scales, and there is nothing abnormal?"

Very smooth, very ordinary!
Xu Ping's eyes were on the sailor all the time, Xu Ping could tell whether he was lying or not.

What is the situation? Could it be that this island will target practitioners.

If we say that the biggest difference between Xu Ping and this sailor is that he is a practitioner of Taoism.

After pondering for a moment, he released the lightning from Huo Zhinan's body: "Brother Huo, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you, and I will apologize to you another day."

Huo Zhinan is not a stingy person, and he didn't take it to heart, he hurriedly asked: "Mr. Xu, did you find anything?"

When he told his discovery to the black crows he met, the sailor also had a look of surprise and fear. If they had encountered those black crows that day, there would definitely be no bones left.

Huo Zhinan first ordered him to hide in the cabin, and then continued to ask: "So, this small island is quite miraculous. It can detect whether people who land on the island are practitioners or ordinary people."

Hearing what he said, Wang Hongguang hurriedly said: "In this case, the three of us will go to the island together, so we can take care of each other."

They still don't know that the Xu Ping in front of them is just an incarnation.

Xu Ping just wanted to make sure if Huo Zhinan was lying, and when he heard Wang Hongguang's proposal, he shook his head: "That's not right, since you know that the island will target practitioners, then you don't want to come up for now."

Saying that, the avatar jumped up and went straight to the island, gradually disappearing from the sight of the two of them.

Although I was not prepared, but once Mr. Xu made a move, I was completely powerless to parry. What kind of skill is this...

In vain, I was still thinking, come to help... Huo Zhinan was amazed, but also a little frustrated.

Wang Hongguang was already used to it. Seeing that Huo Zhinan's expression was exactly what he had seen countless times before, he comforted him: "Brother Huo, don't be too discouraged, actually..."

"Stay with Brother Xu for two more days, and you'll get used to it."
