MTL - I Have Unparalleled Comprehension-Chapter 145 Underwater Deficiencies (8000)
Chapter 145 Underwater Deficiencies (8000)
Looking at the people around him, Qi Qi bowed his hands and greeted him, saying all kinds of flattering words, Xu Bai said that he just wanted to keep a low profile now.
"The matter of disguise must be speeded up, I always forget about it." Xu Bai grinned, thinking in his heart.
In the current situation, if there is a way to disguise, then this situation does not have to happen, and it is completely possible to act in a low-key manner, but at this time it is not possible to be low-key at all.
"I didn't expect the Ye family to be related to Mr. Xu. It seems that we need to move around more often!"
"I didn't expect Mr. Xu to be so interested in rhythm. Why don't we accompany Mr. Xu to visit this music boat with Mr. Xu."
"Master Xu, the young girl is just at the right age, she is peerless, it was when Yunying was not married, she is not as good as us..."
…
One after another voices came and went, at this moment, the rhythm is not important, what is important is that Xu Bai is already conspicuous enough.
Patriarch Ye is very cautious at the moment, scanning the surroundings with alert eyes, for fear of any abnormal situation.
What she is afraid of is not the people around her, but she is afraid that these people will twitch their heads and say Xu Bai's title in the Jianghu. If Xu Bai gets angry, it will not be fun.
Fortunately, this group of people is quite knowledgeable, and they didn't mention Xu Bai's title, they just called out Mr. Xu one by one.
As the saying goes, don't reach out and hit people with smiling faces. These people are so flattering, even Xu Bai can't hold back his face.
"Everyone, I don't want to be too conspicuous, everyone should do what they want." Xu Bai cupped his hands to his surroundings.
The people present are also smart people. They just said hello just to make them familiar. If there is a chance for a second contact, it can also be used as a foreshadowing.
Seeing Xu Bai at the moment didn't seem to be paying much attention, and he knew that now was not the time to talk, so he gradually dispersed.
"Master Xu, I don't think the next itinerary will be easy." Kong Xu stared at the group of scattered people, showing a wry smile.
They came here to investigate, but now due to Xu Bai's reasons, their identities have been exposed.
If the other party really wants to do something on this ship, they will definitely avoid it at this time, otherwise it would be too stupid.
Of course Xu Bai also understood the current situation. He turned his head and looked around. Although the people around him had already left, some people still looked over from time to time.
"Let's take a look again, what if we can find out the news?"
I have been in this circle for so long, and today is the first time that something went wrong outside the plan, and it still happens in this kind of place.
No one is perfect, and he is not 100% sure that he can consider everything. He really didn't consider the value of his face.
Just like what Kong Xu said just now, the other party must be on guard now. He made too much noise just now, so he may not be able to find out anything.
But it’s all here, so you have to take a look at it anyway.
Even if there are no new discoveries, being able to appreciate this annual festival can be regarded as a harvest.
Xu Bai said so, and everyone followed what Xu Bai said.
They continued to follow the original plan and looked around the ship. The first floor was soon completed, and they didn't find any difference.
During the process of searching, Xu Bai kept using his soul to observe the surroundings. After carefully confirming that there was nothing abnormal on the first floor, he led everyone along the stairs at the end, and walked slowly to the second floor.
Compared with the first floor, the second floor is not much different in terms of layout or other aspects. The reason why the first, second and third floors are divided is also for the rational use of space.
Of course, when Xu Bai entered the second floor, it caused a different commotion just like the first floor.
It is impossible for him to cover his face. After covering his face, he has a feeling of deception.
After all, in this matter, for example Ye Zi, it may be normal to cover the veil, but it is not normal for a man to cover the veil.
Several people searched again, but still found nothing.
"Kong Xu, try it, can you figure something out?" Xu Bai touched his chin and asked.
If you want to do fortune-telling, you must find something that is connected. At the moment they are on the boat, they are considered connected.
So Xu Bai asked Kong Xu to give it a try. If it worked out, it would be a good thing. If it doesn’t work out, go to the third floor to see.
Kong Xu nodded, and took out a copper compass from his waist.
A faint light emerged from his finger.
He pressed his finger on the copper compass and closed his eyes.
This process looks unchanged from the outside, except for the light on the fingers, everything is as usual.
But in fact, Kong Xu has already started divination at this moment.
White light slowly poured into the compass along Kong Xu's finger, and then, a surprising scene appeared.
I saw that the pointer on the copper compass began to rotate rapidly, not at a constant speed, but sometimes fast, sometimes ordinary fast, which made people feel a bit obsessive-compulsive.
It took about a few breaths before Kong Xu opened his eyes and said solemnly: "Master Xu, I haven't calculated the exact information, but combined with our current location, we can perceive some information.
Look at the pointer on the copper plate, it is moving rapidly, which proves that there is still a connection here, but I have too little information, and I can't calculate the exact situation. "
For his school, the higher the grade, the fewer clues are needed for divination, but he is only fifth grade now, so of course he needs more information.
"As long as it is relevant, let's go, let's go to the third floor." Xu Bai raised his head and looked at the location on the third floor.
Since the relationship can still be found out, it is the third floor. This ship only has the third floor in total. It is always beneficial to take a look.
Everyone no longer hesitated, came to the end of the stairs, raised their feet and walked towards the third floor.
There were obviously far fewer people on the third floor, and it looked unusually empty. When Xu Bai walked up, he saw someone approaching him.
"It turned out that Master Xu came to visit. He heard a servant report it just now, so he hurriedly prepared to come down to greet him. Didn't this happen to meet Master Xu?"
The visitor was dressed in silk and satin, and he made a hearty voice while walking.
Xu Bai squinted his eyes, looking back and forth at this person.
—The head of the Lin family, Lin Yong.
When the Water Festival opened just now, he was in charge of hosting, and then the government order cut the ribbon.
Now that Xu Bai just came up and bumped into him, he couldn't help thinking whether it was a coincidence or there were other reasons.
"Master Xu, may I take Master Xu to take a tour of this Zhile boat?" Lin Yong smiled when he spoke, with an easy-going expression.
Xu Bairao said with great interest: "I came here this time because I wanted to keep a low profile, and take a look at this annual grand festival by the way. Since the identity is already known, then Patriarch Lin will lead the way."
When something is too coincidental, something must happen.
Xu Bai thought, he came up anyway, and his identity has been exposed. This is already the last floor, why not let this person lead him.
"It's my honor, Mr. Xu, please." Lin Yong turned his body slightly, raised one hand, and made a gesture of invitation.
Xu Bai nodded and raised his foot in this direction without being polite.
Lin Yong followed behind, explaining to Xu Bai from time to time, he did not lead the way for Xu Bai, but he explained wherever Xu Bai went.
There was nothing abnormal in the whole process, and it seemed very calm.
Although the boat is very big, Xu Bai still visited the third floor without any problem.
"Master Xu, do you want to sit inside?" Lin Yong pointed to the entrance of the room on the third floor.
Xu Bai also went shopping on the first two floors, and now he is on the third floor, leaving only this inside.
"Then Patriarch Lau Lin will lead the way." Xu Bai smiled.
"Should be." Lin Yong agreed very low-key, and then walked in front of Xu Bai, leading the way.
The rooms on the third floor are slightly more luxurious than those on the first and second floors, and they look extraordinarily stylish.
There are not many people inside, most of them are drinking and having fun, talking about various rhythms.
Xu Bai looked around and asked, "Why isn't the government order here?"
In the beginning, the government order cut the ribbon, but now he didn't see the person in charge, so Xu Bai asked a little more.
"The magistrate has business to do, so he resigned first. Of course, he didn't know that Master Xu was here. If he knew, he would definitely be here with him." Lin Yong explained, and took Xu Bai with him. Sit down at a place, and serve good wine and food.
"Master Xu, I still have things to do, so I won't bother you here. You can play here a little more and just have fun."
"Wait a minute."
Xu Bai poured himself a glass of wine, poured another glass for Lin Yong, and said, "This glass of wine is to thank Patriarch Lin for leading the way."
Lin Yong smiled, picked up the wine glass, slowly clinked a glass with Xu Bai, drank it in one gulp, and then left.
Xu Bai raised his head and took a sip, looked at Kong Xu next to him, and said: "This person has a big problem, you use him as an excuse to figure it out."
Before Kong Xu could answer, Patriarch Ye asked curiously.
"Master Xu, I don't think he has any problems, and his performance is very normal. How can there be a big problem?"
Before Xu Bai could answer, Ye Zi spoke first.
"Patriarch, he really has no problem, his behavior is too normal, and sometimes it is too normal, which is also a kind of abnormality."
As he spoke, Ye Zi looked at Xu Bai and said, "Master, is Ye Zi right?"
Xu Bai nodded, then shook his head: "Yes, not right."
This scene aroused everyone's curiosity, Kong Xu didn't care anymore, and was waiting for Xu Bai's next words.
Xu Bai poured himself another glass of wine, raised his head and drank it, and then said, "Just because he behaved normally, you can't say that he is abnormal. When he clinked glasses with me just now, I discovered something suspicious."
I have to say that it is indeed a big annual festival. This fine wine is indeed delicious. Just this sip is probably worth a lot of money.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, carefully recalling the situation just now, and there was nothing wrong, so they couldn't help but look at Xu Bai even more suspiciously.
Xu Bai put down his wine glass, pointed to his head, and said, "From the beginning, I could feel that his mood didn't change at all, except that he fluctuated when he was drinking."
Now that he has the ability of spirit and soul, it is naturally easy to do this.
When I clinked glasses with Lin Yong just now, I could clearly feel that Lin Yong's spirit fluctuated, which proved that his mood also changed at that time.
"I think he really has something important to do. When I uttered the word wait a minute, I thought I would not let him go, but later I found out that I just clinked glasses with him, so I returned to normal. As for What is important depends on whether you can figure it out."
After explaining here, everyone will understand.
Kong Xu took out the compass with excitement.
He was finally able to get close to the truth of the matter, and he could also play a role, of course he was very excited.
White light flowed down his fingers and poured into the compass. He closed his eyes, and started counting with Lin Yong as a clue.
The next moment, the pointer began to rotate rapidly, but this time the rotation was different. At a certain position, it stopped.
"Sure enough, as Mr. Xu guessed, he is indeed related to this matter."
Kong Xu pointed to the direction pointed by the pointer just now, and said: "We can find the truth of the matter by walking in this direction."
Xu Bai put the wine glass aside and stood up: "Let's go, let's see what kind of medicine this guy sells in his gourd?"
Everyone nodded, followed behind Xu Bai, and walked in the direction of the pointer...
…
Along the way, instead of taking a leisurely stroll, they quickened their pace, and within a short time, they came to the edge of Zhile Boat.
But beyond this edge, there is a big river.
Xu Bai turned his head and looked at the compass in Kong Xu's hand.
The pointer on the compass did not move, it was still pointing in that direction, but they had come to the end.
Even behind this ship, no ships appeared.
"What's the situation? My compass has never been broken." Kong Xu was a little dazed, not sure what the situation was.
Xu Bai stood by the side of the boat, leaning on the railing of the boat, looking at the river not far away.
The breeze blows, blowing his black hair.
After standing like this for a long time, he suddenly said: "Could it be at the bottom of the river?"
As soon as these words came out, Kong Xu, who was already in a daze, suddenly reacted, and then yelled, causing everyone to turn their heads.
"Master Xu reminded me that it might really be at the bottom of the river."
While talking, he made a movement.
Kong Xu slowly rotated the compass, turning the horizontal compass into a vertical shape, and the pointer was moving slowly, pointing downward with Kong Xu's movements.
Kong Xu tried to move, but no matter how he moved, the pointer still pointed to the bottom of the boat.
What is under the boat is the Xunle River.
"Go." Xu Bai turned around and walked towards the stairs at the end.
Everyone hurriedly followed behind, not long after, they had already reached the bottom floor.
But the pointer on the compass is still pointing down, and has not moved half a minute, which proves that it has to go down.
"Are you going to go down to the river?" Xu Bai frowned, lost in thought.
Now at this rhythm, it is obvious that the problem lies in the river.
But with that question comes a cascade of questions.
If it was on land, Xu Bai would be fearless, but now if he wants to go into the water, he has some ideas.
He doesn't have any exercises suitable for underwater, if he goes on rashly, it may be greatly compromised.
"My lord, if it is said that it is underwater and the other party is a demon master, I think it is probably related to the demon in the water." Ye Zi showed his authority as an encyclopedia and explained: "It is said that some underwater Monster races like to build lairs in the water, and after some demon races capture people, in order to keep people active and not kill them, they use unique methods to separate the lairs so that people can live inside."
"Yes, most monster races like to eat living people." Patriarch Ye followed.
Xu Bai touched his chin and said, "Do you have a way to avoid water?"
Everyone shook their heads in unison, indicating that there was no way.
"They didn't make a big fuss, but I always feel that they will take advantage of this festival to cause some trouble. Since there is no way to go on, then don't let them make trouble." Xu Bai said slowly.
The other party chose to get together at this time, which is likely to be related to this festival, and there are so many people participating in this festival, maybe the other party's goal is these people.
In a situation like this, it is absolutely impossible for him to go down. After all, the enemy is dark and we are clear, and he is still fighting in water that he is not good at.
But if you just let the other party go and let the other party make trouble here, it is not in line with his style.
"Master Xu, if you want to let the people on the boat leave, it won't be done overnight." Family Master Ye said: "After all, it is a big annual festival."
Indeed, as she said, this festival is only held once a year, and it is extremely grand.
Not to mention the number of people who participated, and at this time, it is difficult to get all these people to leave the river.
If these people don't leave the river, it will inevitably lead to follow-up situations. At that time, the other party may take advantage of it to do something.
Although Xu Bai didn't know, he couldn't make the other party feel better.
As the saying goes, if you make the enemy unhappy, you will be happy too.
So he must make the other party unhappy.
"Of course there is a way." Xu Bai looked around and said.
Ye Zi asked very curiously: "My lord, what method are you going to use to make these people leave?"
Xu Bai took a deep breath and walked to the edge of the Zhile boat. The true energy was constantly circulating in his body, spreading his voice towards the surrounding...
"Xu Bai, the blood butcher swordsman, invited all the family heads to go ashore to discuss important matters. Those who don't come will be punished with crimes. In addition, the common people also need to go ashore. Those who come first will be rewarded with ten coins."
After saying this sentence, everyone present was dumbfounded.
"It's really a simple and direct method." Everyone said in their hearts.
In fact, this is also a no-brainer. The simplest method is also the most effective method.
Didn’t those dignitaries want to curry favor with him, so he used the excuse of discussing major issues and called them all up. If anyone was unwilling, he added a sentence of guilt later, so he didn’t dare not go.
As for the best way for the common people, of course it is to use money.
What, you said that this Fengling Mansion respects music, how could it be contaminated with these copper stinks?
How could copper coins be smelly?
No matter how noble a person is, he still wants to eat.
Anyway, Xu Bai did what he did. If there are still people who stay on the boat because of their obsession, then it has nothing to do with him.
After saying these words, Xu Bai led everyone out of the boat and rushed directly to the shore.
As he said these words, a large number of people around them began to surge towards the shore, and made noises from time to time.
"Hurry up, Master Xu has something important to discuss. There must be something important. This is an opportunity."
"Front, what's the matter with you, Patriarch? Can you walk faster? Don't delay me talking with Master Xu."
"Fuck your mother, obviously Master Xu wants to chat with me, how could it be you?"
These words are the communication of the dignitaries, but the communication of the common people is much more sincere.
"What, someone sent money? Then hurry up."
"Hurry up, it might be gone if you get there late."
"Wouldn't it be nice to take the money first, and then go to the boat to continue communicating?"
…
Gradually, the boat was empty and the shore was crowded with people.
Everyone turned their attention to Xu Bai.
Xu Bai was very calm, with one hand behind his back and the other on the black knife at his waist, looking at the huge Xunle River in front of him.
Everyone had already left, but his gaze went straight across the area and focused on the Zhile boat.
In the bow of Zhile Boat, Lin Yong was standing at the bow with his whole body wet, with his hands on the railing, smiling at Xu Bai.
It's just that this smile has a somewhat hateful meaning, as if Xu Bai has disturbed his grand plan.
"Patriarch Lin, it seems that the underwater is not very easy, you have to change your clothes, how about going ashore to change?" Xu Bai said loudly.
At this time, the people on the shore also followed Xu Bai's voice, and soon found Lin Yong who was slightly embarrassed.
"Master Xu, it really is Gao." Lin Yong said loudly: "I never thought that Master Xu would lure everyone down with such a simple method."
A black and white snake hovered around Lin Yong's waist, revealing his identity without a doubt.
"Although it seems a bit of a failure, it's just a failure. We still have a lot to do in the future." Lin Yong stretched out his hand and stroked the snake at his waist.
The snake straightened up, eyes glowing with cold light, looked directly at Xu Bai, and slowly uttered a human language: "The second centipede brother died at your hands, and the Yaozu must remember it in their hearts. You can't survive the Fengling Mansion."
Xu Bai shrugged, stretched out his index finger, and ticked lightly: "Come here."
The corner of Lin Yong's mouth twitched and said, "The Blood Slaughter Swordsman would do such naive things. I never thought that although he won this time, he didn't win all of them. Look who's next to me?"
As he spoke, next to Lin Yong, the Fuling was **** and brought over.
Obviously, the government order had been arrested long ago, and he didn't know what tricks he had, but he was countered.
"Master Xu, look, you can save these people, but you can't save the biggest official in Fengling Mansion." Lin Yong stood on the Zhile boat, looking at Xu Bai from a distance: "It's a pity."
"Kill him alone, can you succeed?" Xu Bai asked.
Lin Yong was taken aback for a moment, then subconsciously said: "No."
Xu Bai cupped his hands suddenly and said: "Your Majesty, the magistrate, is for the country and the people, and now he has fallen into the enemy's hands, and he died heroically, he is a man of honor."
Hearing this sentence, all the people present were stunned. They thought that Xu Bai would say a few words anyway. After all, this is the biggest official in Fengling Mansion, and the biggest official has been arrested. Think of ways to.
Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, Xu Bai said a scene, and the meaning was already obvious.
Your government order has been arrested, so you should be prepared to sacrifice, and I am not going to save you here.
Of course, everyone understands what this means, but when Xu Bai said it like this, it seemed very reasonable, and even gave the magistrate a name of heroism.
Fu Ling was **** and his mouth was gagged. After hearing Xu Bai's words, he suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at Xu Bai in disbelief.
Lin Yong finally recovered from his daze, gritted his teeth and said, "Master Xu, I think this matter can still be discussed. We can let him go, as long as..."
Xu Bai waved his hand and said: "No need, I believe in the character of the magistrate, he is very willing to sacrifice his life for the country, I will tell His Majesty, and ask for a good title for the magistrate."
Lin Yong: "..."
Why didn't you follow the trick at all?
Obviously it can be discussed, why not discuss it, are you so anxious to let the other party die?
Please, can we discuss it?
He tried hard to control his temper, but he couldn't control it no matter what, he stretched out his hand and slapped on the railing of the Zhile boat: "Xu Bai! If you refuse to save yourself, these people will see you, Then you won't be able to get it right."
Xu Bai smiled and said: "That will be later, and after that, who can say clearly? Maybe I will kill you all, but I will get a good reputation instead."
Having said that, Xu Bai's eyes became playful: "By the way, why didn't you do it? Could it be that the government official is also one of yours? Don't let him go now, and I will doubt it if he is released again." his."
After saying this, the scene fell into an eerie silence. Except for the occasional breeze blowing from the river, the place seemed unusually deserted.
"Alas..." Fu Ling's body shook, and all the ropes on his body fell off. He took off the cloth from his mouth and sighed: "As expected of a blood butcher swordsman, when it comes to being cruel and unreasonable, you are better at it." .”
"Where is it, I just felt that the clothes on your body were still dry, so I realized something was wrong." Xu Bai jokingly said: "If he really tied you up and wanted to hide you, he can only hide you in the water." You can live, but you did it."
Before he was on this ship, he used the power of his soul to search everywhere.
The government order was not found. If the government order really wanted to hide, it must be hidden under the water, but the clothes on his body were dry, which is suspicious.
As for whether it will be on another ship? It's simply not possible.
Even if they left Zhile Ship, Xu Bai was still paying attention to the situation here, and did not see the ship heading in the direction of Zhile Ship.
Then there is only one ending.
What special method did the government order use to avoid his spirit.
The question is coming, why hide?
This is obvious.
So Xu Bai had this idea a long time ago and didn't make a move.
"A government order, the largest family in Fengling Mansion." Xu Bai said slowly: "Why do you have to collude with the Yaozu?"
At this time, everyone also understood the reason.
They all breathed a sigh of relief, only then did they know why Xu Bai asked them to go back to the river, and they looked at Xu Bai with awe in their eyes.
Especially those high-ranking officials and nobles, they were even more in awe.
I have heard for a long time that the blood butcher swordsman Xu Bai is cruel and decisive, but no one said that not only is he decisive and ruthless, but his resourcefulness is deeper than ordinary people.
"Xu Bai, the matter has been exposed, and we don't care. The next step is to see who can win in the follow-up fight?" Although Lin Yong failed, he still said: "You can't do anything to us. If you have the ability, go into the water and try." try."
After saying this, Lin Yong and Fu Ling plunged into the water, and after a while, they had already disappeared.
"I've seen arrogant people all this way, but I've never seen such arrogant ones." Xu Bai looked at the disappearing figures of these two people, and said calmly: "Generally, such arrogant people will be killed by me in a short time." Unscrewed the head."
The cold wind blew past, and with Xu Bai's words, everyone present shivered.
"Master Xu, now..." Kong Xu said hesitantly: "There is a government order, and there is also a Lin family. It seems that the Fengling Mansion is in chaos."
The biggest officials are all traitors, how can there be no chaos?
"The supervisors are coming soon, let's talk about it when they arrive, and go back now." Xu Bai also ignored the people around him, turned around and walked towards Ye's house.
In the murder case that happened last time, the people who supervised Tiansi probably were on their way here. Xu Bai didn’t need to do these things, and the people who supervised Tiansi would naturally take care of them.
The people present did not dare to follow, Xu Bai must have saved them, and what Xu Bai said just now was very cold, they were afraid of following, which would make Xu Bai unhappy.
Only Ye Zi and others followed Xu Bai back to Ye's house, and what the rest of the people were going to do, Xu Bai didn't care, anyway, just don't go to this river.
After returning to Ye's house, Xu Bai sat on the chair in the room, enjoying Ye Zi rubbing his shoulders, but thinking about what happened today.
It seemed to be a victory, but Xu Bai discovered another shortcoming.
This shortcoming is the battle in the water.
If he was good at fighting in water, Lin Yong wouldn't be able to leave today, but he didn't do it today because he lacks this skill.
Underwater is something he is not good at. If he rushes to fight on the Chiraku Ship, he may cause bad results.
"My lord, are you thinking about things underwater?" Ye Zi rubbed Xu Bai's shoulders and asked.
Xu Bai nodded and said, "Yes, do you know any families that are good at underwater combat?"
Ye Zi shook his head, and said: "If it's in Fengling Mansion, it's true that no one is good at underwater combat. After all, most people here are still good at rhythm."
Xu Bai hummed.
This is indeed the case. If it is elsewhere, you may be able to find people who are good at it, or find related progress bars, but it is difficult to find here.
The so-called distant water cannot quench the near thirst, and it is impossible for him to go out to find it.
It is impossible for the other party to let him out.
So now seems to be at a dead end.
To solve the problem, you must get into the water.
But if it goes into the water, it must be unsafe.
This is a loop, which needs to be untied.
Xu Bai picked up the teacup and took a sip, thinking carefully.
At this moment, Ye Zi rolled his eyes, and leaned into Xu Bai's ear: "Young Master, you want to solve the problem, Ye Zi has an idea."
