The sea breeze was fresh and a little noisy.
Lin Sheng reached out and combed his hair that was blown to his forehead. He looked at the merchant ships and freighters that were constantly coming and going on the sea.
His mood gradually calmed down.
"But I've been standing here for a long time, why is it still so quiet?" He remembered that there were a lot of idle people at this time of the day.
Now at a glance, on the port, several freighters were methodically unloading goods.
The laborers and merchants who helped to move the goods were getting along well with each other with smiles on their faces.
Previously, there was no such thing as raising the price of labor on the ground and not allowing people to move the goods or anything like that.
"It seems that the rumors are biased." Lin Sheng nodded slightly.
At least what he saw with his own eyes was a completely different port area.
After standing by the fence for a while, Lin Sheng felt that it was time to go back for dinner. He also turned and walked back the way he came.
When he turned and was about to leave, he glanced at the woman on the side. He remembered that when he came, the woman was standing here.
He was ready to leave now, but she was still standing here. Even her posture did not change much. Not to mention anything else, this kind of calmness was quite commendable.
But he did not know that his glance almost scared Xie Qiaoyue to the point that her legs gave out and she fell to the ground.
She had been standing for too long in the same posture, and her calves could no longer support her weight.
Lin Sheng leisurely left the dock, flagged down a taxi, and finally left.
Until the car completely disappeared at the end of her vision.
Xie Qiaoyue breathed a sigh of relief and wiped her forehead, which was full of sweat.
"No, no … my heart really can't stand the scare. If this happens a few more times, I'm afraid I'll lose my life! "
She had been living in the port area for more than three years, and could be regarded as an old fox in this area.
Because of her innate sensitivity to danger, she was able to survive in the chaotic port area, and even became the big sister of a group of thieves.
Because of this, the moment she saw Lin Sheng, the fear and desire to escape rose in her heart. It could be said that it was the strongest feeling she had ever had since she became a pickpocket!
Lin Sheng's body seemed to be surrounded by some kind of intimidating and inexplicable aura. This aura also had an obvious effect on others.
For someone like her who was born with sharp senses, it was even more effective.
"That was f * cking awesome!" Xie Qiaoyue let out a long sigh and bent over to rub her stiff legs.
Patter.
As she bent down, a light pink stone necklace in the shape of a water droplet slid out of her chest.
The stone had a jade-like texture, but there was a milky-white dot in the center, and a circle of mysterious and detailed patterns were engraved around it.
Xie Qiaoyue quickly stuffed the necklace back into her chest and put it on.
She had stolen it from a bedraggled foreign captain a few days ago.
At that time, he had brought it back because it looked novel and looked good. The more he looked at it, the more pleasing it became to his eyes, so he decided to wear it close to his body.
Although she was just a pickpocket, she had good taste and knowledge.
Although this thing didn't look valuable, the carving and decoration had a sense of history. Maybe it was an antique, and if it appreciated in the future, she would make a fortune.
Patting her thighs, she stood up again and stretched her body. Looking at the sea, she felt refreshed and her whole body was at ease.
"Hmm? What's that? " Just as Xie Qiaoyue was about to turn around and leave, her eyes were involuntarily attracted by something that gradually floated over from the sea.
It was a dark blue sea eagle with a body as pure as a gem.
The most eye-catching thing was that the sea eagle's neck and wings had some fine golden patterns that looked like gold.
Xie Qiaoyue had grown up by the sea and had seen too many sea eagles.
But it was the first time she had seen a sea eagle with golden patterns on its wings and neck.
"What a pity … This thing is so eye-catching. It's definitely impossible for me to have a share."
The boss of this dock was the Black Wolf Gang. There were at least a dozen people who ran faster than her, and they were all from the Black Wolf Gang.
With so many people seeing it, this extraordinary looking sea eagle naturally had nothing to do with her.
She stood by the fence and watched the sea eagle slowly float over with the waves, motionless.
But what surprised her was that until the sea eagle floated in front of her, less than ten meters away from her position, no one around paid attention to it.
"What's going on??" Xie Qiaoyue felt that something was wrong.
She glanced around, and among the people coming and going, no one paid attention to the sea eagle that was so conspicuous on the sea.
The sea eagle was the size of a washbasin, and the golden patterns on its body were still shining in the sun, extremely conspicuous.
"Something's wrong …" Xie Qiaoyue's expression became a little solemn.
This situation was very strange.
She realized that the people around seemed to have not seen any movement from the sea eagle at all.
A sailor who had just gotten off the boat even walked past the fence next to the sea eagle, bent down to pick up a silver coin that was only worth twenty cents from the ground, and then left happily.
But he ignored the sea eagle that was floating beside him.
That feeling … as if he did not see it at all.
"Little guy … You can see me?"
Suddenly, an old and calm voice slowly sounded in Xie Qiaoyue's mind.
She froze, her body instantly tightened, and she was ready to run at any time.
This strange phenomenon had exceeded the limit of what she could accept.
There was no one within five meters of her, but the voice sounded like someone was whispering in her ear. It was so close.
"Don't be afraid … I'm hurt, very badly. It's on the sea in front of you. "The voice sounded again.
Xie Qiaoyue swallowed her saliva, and her eyes quickly swept over the sea in front of her.
Then, to her horror, she saw that the sea eagle floating on the surface of the sea had opened its eyes and was staring at her calmly and peacefully.
She was just a gangster, and the strongest person she had seen since childhood was the boss of the Iron Fist Society that dominated the nearby Blackwater District.
She had never seen such a magical means.
"Please help me, little girl. In return, I can teach you something." The sea eagle opened its mouth and spoke like an old man.
"Gulp …" Xie Qiaoyue swallowed hard, and felt that her throat was very dry …
But she did not notice that the stone necklace hidden in her chest was emitting a soft light gold.
…
…
Lin Sheng returned home, practicing Saint power and meditating on the Ashen Seal, alternating until the afternoon.
Then after dinner, he watched TV with his sister, Lin Xiao, and ate some supper that his dad brought back, then quickly washed up and went to bed.
Because of his failed exploration and drowning once, he could not enter the dream for the past two days, and could only sleep normally.
He slept in a daze until midnight.
A burst of firecracker sounds woke Lin Sheng up from his deep sleep.
