"Fellow Daoist, don't listen to your sister's nonsense. I'm just a passing rogue cultivator, but she insisted that I'm a water bandit." Ye Kong explained.
Jiang Wuyi shouted, "Brother, don't listen to his flowery words. This guy is black-skinned, he's not a good person at first glance!"
Ye Kong ignored her and said politely to Jiang Wulin, "Fellow Daoist, can I have a word with you?"
"Sure, this way please." Jiang Wulin hurriedly accompanied Ye Kong to the bow.
Jiang Wuyi stomped his feet behind them, "Black-skinned guy! Don't try to deceive my brother just because he's honest! "
"Aren't you annoyed? Your brother has lived for so many years, can't he tell good from bad? Even without you, isn't he still living well? "Ye Kong turned around and roared, causing Jiang Wuyi to be speechless.
Ye Kong had changed his appearance, so Jiang Wulin couldn't recognize him. However, he still felt a sense of familiarity. Listening to Ye Kong's words, it seemed like he knew him. However, Jiang Wulin looked carefully, and it seemed like he didn't know him.
"Fellow Daoist, do we know each other?" Jiang Wulin asked.
"I don't know you … but you look familiar to me." Ye Kong pretended to look at him carefully. He didn't reveal his identity, not because he was guarding against Jiang Wulin, but because he was afraid of causing trouble for him.
Hearing Ye Kong's words, Jiang Wulin also laughed, "Is that so? I also think you look familiar." Then, Jiang Wulin thought of a possibility and asked, "Fellow Daoist, have you been to the Hundred Insect Village market?"
"Yes … Aiya, I recognize you, you are …" Ye Kong patted Jiang Wulin's shoulder like an old friend, and said enthusiastically, "You're the one who sells talismans? I bought a few of them from you! "
"Haha, then you must have been there four months ago, because I stopped selling talismans after that."
"Yes, haha."
The two soon put their arms around each other's shoulders like old friends, and Jiang Wuyi angrily tugged at the corner of his clothes. Hmph, black-skinned, flowery words, going to the Hundred Insect Village market to sell talismans, so what?
Jiang Wulin asked again, "Fellow cultivator, why did you fall into the water today?"
Ye Kong knew that Jiang Wulin was quite honest, so he gave a half-true, half-false reply, "Little Brother, I met an enemy before, so I escaped to this river. My Spiritual Sense was injured, so I hid at the bottom of the river to escape. I wanted to find a place to stay. When I saw this big ship, I thought it was a mortal ship, so I didn't reveal my identity as a cultivator. I didn't expect your sister to treat me as a villain. "
The cultivators of Cang Nan Continent were heartless. Normally, they would not dare to tell anyone about their injuries. There would definitely be no one who would sympathize with you, pity you, or help you … There would only be people who would take advantage of your weakness to kill you and rob you of your treasures. If it weren't for Jiang Wulin, Ye Kong wouldn't have dared to say it out loud.
"Oh, I see." Jiang Wulin nodded. At the same time, he said, "Since this little friend trusts me, then you can rest at ease and recuperate on the ship. Even if your enemy appears again, we can resist him for a while."
"Don't worry, that enemy won't be able to find me." Ye Kong knew that Jiang Wuyi was eavesdropping, so he said, "Fellow cultivator, it's because of your magnanimity that I dare to tell the truth. There are some people who want to kill me, but I don't dare to say it."
When Jiang Wuyi heard that, she was instantly annoyed, "Hey, you black-headed guy, what are you talking about? You're talking bad about people behind their backs. Do you have any sense of civility? "
Ye Kong didn't look at her. He said carelessly, "It's fine if you don't have civility, unlike some people who eavesdrop on men's private conversations behind their backs. They don't even have any sense of shame."
"You! I'm going to kill you! "Jiang Wuyi bit her cherry lips and charged over with her flying sword.
"Alright, stop fooling around!" Jiang Wulin blocked his sister and said to Ye Kong, "It's more important to recuperate. How about I bring fellow cultivator to the cabin."
Ye Kong nodded. "Very well."
On the way to the cabin, Jiang Wulin suddenly thought of something and said with a smile, "Look at me, I forgot to introduce myself to you. I'm Jiang Wulin, and this is my sister, Jiang Wuyi, an inner disciple of Wu Country's Cloud Talisman Sect."
I know all this, but what name should I give myself? Ye Kong couldn't think of a good name, so he said casually, "I come from the countryside. My family's surname is Li, and because I'm black, everyone calls me Black-Headed Li."
When Ye Kong finished speaking, he heard Jiang Wuyi scolding from behind, "There's nothing good about people called Black-Headed Li! Serves them right for not having a wife! "
Ye Kong was baffled. There must be something wrong with this woman's brain. How did she link it to the problem of having a wife? It didn't seem like there was anything wrong with her, right?
Jiang Wulin laughed and told her about the sailor called Black-Headed Li. When Ye Kong heard this, he became even more gloomy. F * ck him, if he had known earlier, he wouldn't have called him Hei Zi. He was really unlucky. Just randomly coming up with a nickname would cause people to hate him. This little chili pepper was really an enemy.
This ship was not small, and there were many empty rooms upstairs. Jiang Wulin arranged a room for Ye Kong and was pulled to the room next door by his sister.
"Brother, how can you take in people so casually? How much do you know about that black egg? What if he's a bad guy and sneaks up on us? "Jiang Wuyi complained.
"Sister, I don't think this person is a bad guy." Jiang Wulin shook his head and said, "Don't make a fuss. Even if he's a bad guy, he's no threat to us … Besides, I always feel that he's a little like our young friend Xia Hui."
"Xia Hui again?" Jiang Wuyi patted his head, feeling that he was really going crazy. He sighed and said, "Brother, I'm going to vomit when I hear this name now. How many times have you said it in the past two months? Now there's a little cultivator of unknown origin on the ship, and you feel that he's like Xia Hui … Oh my god, brother, don't tell me you're having an affair with him?"
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Jiang Wulin's face turned red. His sister actually thought that he had that kind of relationship. However, after hearing his sister's words, Jiang Wulin also felt that he was being oversensitive. Why did he think that everyone he met was Xia Hui?
After entering the room, Ye Kong hurriedly looked at himself in the mirror to see his current appearance.
"It's really dark." Ye Kong couldn't help but smile bitterly. The Appearance-Changing Pill had turned his skin into a bronze color, and his face seemed to have become bigger. Now, he really couldn't tell his original appearance at all.
However, in the eyes of Ye Kong, he didn't become ugly. Although he had changed from a pretty boy to a black-faced man, he looked more rough, like a standard prince on a black horse.
"It's healthier this way." Ye Kong smiled, set up an array in the room, and began to meditate.
The big ship sailed on the Wuan River for three whole days, and Ye Kong also meditated in the array for three days. This made Jiang Wuyi, who originally wanted to find trouble with Ye Kong, feel very uncomfortable, as if he had nowhere to vent his anger.
On the fourth day, Ye Kong broke out of the array. In fact, he didn't take the initiative to come out, but Jiang Wulin came to find him.
