April 20th. Dawn.
Outside, the sky was bright, but the inside of the ship was not affected. If the sky outside were a bit brighter, the inside of the ship would be a bit darker.
That's because lamps only shine brightly in the dark. In the daytime, they are useless.
Many things in the world are like that.
Frogboy stood up from the chair and patted the expensive new clothes he was wearing.
"Now I understand," he said. "Fortunately, it's not too late." "Oh?"
"Fortunately, the clothes haven't been dirtied yet, so I can return them. Fortunately, the pearls haven't been touched, and the wine has only been opened one jug. It shouldn't be too big of a problem. Otherwise, it would really be terrible." "Why?" "Why?"
"Because General Li isn't General Li, and Frogboy is still the pauper he was before. I haven't paid for any of these things. If the clothes are dirtied, the wine is gone, and the pearl meatballs are gone, how long will it take for me to pay them back? "With a smile on his face, he said to the people he had brought with him," I beg of you. Do me a favor. Hurry up and take these things away. Your wages are only for one day. Later, I'll think of a way to pay you back. I won't go back on my word. " No matter what, Frogboy's popularity was always good, because these people left without saying anything.
Ingot had wanted to ask the long-legged girl if she had really been hired by Frogboy, or if she had some ulterior motive.
The girl seemed to be afraid that Ingot would ask her about such things, so she slipped away like a wisp of smoke. After she was gone, she turned her head and winked at Ingot.
Ingot had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.
In any case, the kind-hearted girl had treated him well. Even if she and the others had come here to hide their identities as performers, Ingot didn't want to expose her.
He was sure that he would see her again. They were both young, and had a long life ahead of them.
It wouldn't be too late to ask her about such things at that time.
Ingot was young, but he knew how to leave some leeway. To leave some leeway for others was to leave some leeway for oneself. There was nothing wrong with being a person like that.
The lantern was also taken away. Fortunately, the sky outside was already bright, so there was no need for the lantern.
Frogboy stretched his body and let out a long breath. He had the cutest smile on his face. "Goodbye," he said. "Goodbye, everyone." "Goodbye?" Ingot stared at him with wide eyes. "What does' goodbye 'mean?" "Goodbye means that I'm going to get the hell out of here."
"You want to leave just like that?"
"The play is over, or at least my horned fish is over. Why don't I go?" Frogboy laughed happily. "Don't tell me you want me to stay and treat me to a drink?" Ingot stared at him for a long time, then laughed bitterly and shook his head. "So it turns out your skin is even thicker than mine. You did something like this and still don't care." "I'm fine?" Said Frogboy with a chuckle. "I didn't steal, I didn't rob, and I didn't harm anyone. I was just like Great Hero Guo. I wanted to catch a bandit that no one else could catch. Since I couldn't catch him, then I might as well forget about it." He looked around with a chuckle. "Everyone, I'm such a gentleman. What else do you want to do to me?" Ingot stared, dumbfounded. The others had nothing to say.
But then someone outside began to speak.
"They really can't do anything to you. Fortunately, I can," said the man. "Not only am I going to spank your ass, I'm going to break your legs." As soon as he heard the man's voice, Frogboy's face changed, and he wanted to slip away.
Unfortunately, he couldn't slip away.
Old Master Tian was already in front of him. Frogboy could only bow his head and smile.
"Hello, Old Master!"
"I'm not good," said Old Master Tian, his face stern. "I'm about to die from anger. How could I be good?" "Well then, I'll hurry back, take off my pants, and crawl on the ground. I'll wait for the Old Master to come back and give me a good spanking. That way, the Old Master's anger can be appeased." Ingot didn't want to laugh, but he couldn't help it.
When he laughed, the situation became much better. Old Master Tian casually slapped Frogboy twice across the face.
"Screw off. Screw off," said Frogboy. "Screw off. Screw off and crawl on the ground. If you try to slip out again, I'll beat you to death." "I'll screw off," said Frogboy, clutching his head. "I'll screw off immediately."
Before he could finish his sentence, his figure had already disappeared, but his voice could still be heard.
Everyone could hear him laughing and saying, "Fortunately, I'm a human, not a dog. I don't have dog legs. Fortunately, the Old Master wants to break dog legs, not human legs." Ingot suddenly shouted, "But you'd better be careful in the future, lest I come back to eat your chicken legs." Old Master Tian didn't come alone. Not long after he entered, two more people entered.
Two women, very, very beautiful women. One had her head bowed, her face red. It was none other than Big Boss Tang Lanfang.
The other one seemed to be a bit older than Tang Lanfang, but she still looked bright and beautiful. Her grace and bearing were indescribable.
Anyone who saw her couldn't help but take a second look.
But when the fearless Ingot saw her, it was like Frogboy seeing Old Master Tian. He wanted to hide, but he also wanted to slip away.
Unfortunately, just like Frogboy, he couldn't hide, couldn't slip away. All he could do was brace himself and greet her with a smile. "Third Sister, how are you?" she said softly. "Old Ninth, you stand right there. Don't move." Ingot didn't dare to move.
At first, everyone was wondering why this little rascal, who wouldn't even blink if the sky collapsed, would be so afraid. Now they understood.
Naughty little boys are always afraid of their big sisters. When big sisters hit people, it hurts even more than when their parents hit them.
Tie Changchun suddenly let out a sigh, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders.
"Thank the heavens and the earth," he said. "Now that Miss Dragon Third is here, what can't be resolved?" Even if there were people in Jianghu who didn't like Miss Dragon Third, there was one thing that no one didn't like.
Everyone knew that the children of the Long Clan would carry such a thing with them.
It wasn't a treasured sword or a sharp blade, nor was it a deadly poison or concealed weapon. It was nothing more than a small flag.
A flag embroidered with a dragon and seven stars.
A flag with a dragon of seven stars.
Even though Old Master Tian of the Flowered Flag Sect had been famous for a long time, and was a powerful figure, he treated Miss Dragon Third with the same respect as anyone else.
The dragon flag hadn't even appeared, but it was already so powerful.
"Great Hero Guo, your injuries are not light," said Miss Dragon Third. "I've already prepared a carriage to take you to a place where you can be treated. Chamber Lord Xiao, please take you there." She laughed, then continued, "The scars on your wife's face can be healed, but the scars on her heart can only be healed by you. When you get there, you might be able to see her. I hope that you can heal her heart." Her smile was gentle, and her voice was even gentler. But when she spoke, no one could refuse.
A person like her didn't need to speak loudly.
"Great Hero Iron should stay here with Old Master Tian, and fulfill General Li's unfinished wish." Miss Dragon Third's voice was soft. "This is a good deed of virtue. In the future, the two of you will definitely live a long and prosperous life." After everyone left, Ingot couldn't help but ask, "What about me?" Miss Dragon Third turned her head and looked at him. After a long time, she sighed softly. "I really don't know what to do with you." She took Tang Lanfang's hand. "It seems I have no choice but to hand him over to you." Tang Lanfang's face turned even redder. "How … how can I control him?" "Everyone has someone who can control them," said Miss Dragon Third sweetly. "Perhaps you are the only one who can control him." She laughed even more warmly. "I'll let you control him for a year. If you really can control him, then I'll call you sister-in-law." She deliberately put on a stern face. "If even you don't want him, then I have no choice but to send him home." Tang Lanfang's head drooped even lower, but she couldn't help but sneak a glance at Ingot.
Ingot was also sneaking glances at her, and then kowtowing to her.
Of course, he didn't really kneel down and kowtow. He just used his thumb to kowtow.
But that was enough.
The sky was filled with stars.
Under the millions and millions of sparkling stars, there were two people who seemed to be saying something that would never end. There are some things that other people can't hear, but there are some things that you can listen to. " "I know that your family's Seven Star Dragon Banner is famous throughout the world, and I know that the Old Master loves you the most. So I gave you seven stars." "Mm."
"A star of fortune descends from the heavens, turning iron into gold. I've seen this star before."
"Oh?"
"Little star, bright and shiny. General Li gave it to Great Hero Guo when he was young. She took it back when Great Hero Guo got married. "One time General Li was injured, and your eldest sister accidentally saved her. She gave this star to your eldest sister as a keepsake, and told her that whoever carried this star was her benefactor, and that no matter what happened, she would do her best to help." "Oh?"
"Your Da Xu must have known that you liked to cause trouble, and was afraid that you would be bullied. So he gave the star to you." "Mm."
"What about the other five stars? Can you show them to me? "
"I can't."
"Why not?"
"There are so many stars in the sky. You can go down and look at them. Why do you want to look at my star?" "I want to see it."
"I won't let you see it. Now I won't even let you see the stars in the sky …."
"Are you going to show it to me or not?"
"One day, I'll show it to you. When that time comes, you won't even be able to stop looking."
