Chapter 60: Crossing Chencang in the Dark

...

The moment before the Tianhai City Gate was closed, two fast horses galloped out, and the horse behind them was Ou Chuyang and Mu Wanqing.

After running two miles, Ou Chuyang dismounted and took Mu Wanqing back on his back, and handed the reins to the man in front of him, "One hundred crystals, rushed to Ninghai City overnight, these two horses belong to you."

"Thank you, Lord Sword Master, goodbye, the villain." The man immediately ran away happily.

Ou Chuyang carried Mu Wanqing on his back and took advantage of the night to make a big circle and returned to Tianhai City Pier. Then he jumped into the sea and lurked at the bottom of a fishing boat.

While holding the sword in his hand, Ou Chuyang absorbed the essence of the sword energy, he used the sword energy to wrap himself and Mu Wanqing. With abundant sword energy to protect his body and sufficient crystal support, it was no problem for the two of them to lurk at the bottom of the water for days and nights.

Soon, a thunderous shout suddenly erupted over Tianhai City, and all the pedestrians on the street were shocked and hurried home to close the door to avoid disaster.

Then a news that shocked the whole city came out: "Wu Yanzhao, the son of Wu Changtian, the owner of Tianhai Pavilion, was assassinated by someone in Wanghailou. The murderer was Ou Chuyang, who had just won from the 'Haitian line'."

Accompanied by this news, a large group of people gushing out like a tide in Tianhai Pavilion. The elites of Tianhai Pavilion all went out to search in all directions, and teams of fast horses chased them along various roads.

That night, every household in the huge Ninghai City closed the door and turned off the lights, and no one dared to walk outside. Tianhai Pavilion searched from door to door all night, but found nothing.

In the early morning, various ships at the pier began to leave the port one after another. Tianhai Pavilion sent a fleet to lock the port firmly, searching one by one before letting it go.

"Dad, is something wrong?" asked a strong man on a fishing boat leaving the port.

An old fisherman at the bow of the boat taught a lesson: "Don't ask if you shouldn't ask. The matter of the Sword Lord has nothing to do with us. Don't ask around if you have nothing to do."

"I know, dad." The strong man skillfully raised the sails, and the fishing boat rowed the waves and accelerated.

"I ask Aunt Li next door to tell you a matchmaker and take you to see you in two days." The old fisherman returned to the cabin and took the rudder.

The strong man refused and said, "I won't go."

"You kid, alas!" the old fisherman sighed: "Xiaohong has been away for several years, and you are in your twenties. If you don't hurry up and ask for a wife and have a baby, my old Wang family will be about to lose their fortune."

The strong man said silently and stared at the endless sea in a daze.

Suddenly, two figures jumped up and capsized onto the bow of the ship.

"Who!" The strong man grabbed a harpoon and looked at the man and woman in front of him with vigilance.

"Don't be rude!" The old fisherman rushed over in two steps and grabbed the harpoon and threw it aside. He pulled the strong man down and knelt down, and kowtowed: "The King of the Untouchables, the King of the Sea, Changwei kowtowed to the two masters of the sword."

"Get up and talk." Ou Chuyang said, "I have taken this boat. You can do as I tell you, and you won't have less money."

"Thank you, Lord Sword Master, please give me the order." The old fisherman Wang Dahai stood up and said respectfully.

Ou Chuyang asked: "In this Yanzhou territory, besides Tianhai Pavilion, what other major families and sects are there?"

"If you want to go back to the sword master, the Tianhai Pavilion is the most powerful within a radius of thousands of miles." Wang Dahai said: "We and the untouchables are not clear about the situation thousands of miles away. Please forgive me, Lord Sword Master."

Ou Chuyang asked again: "Then are there any other big cities and ports along the coast of Yanzhou besides Tianhai City?"

Wang Dahai replied: "This is true. It is said that there is a Jinghai City two thousand miles northeast of Tianhai City, with a population of hundreds of thousands and very prosperous. But the villain has never been there."

"Okay, I'll get to Jinghai City within ten days. I'll give you a hundred crystals, and add one hundred every day in advance." Ou Chuyang waved his hand and said, "Now, arrange a cabin for me."

"Thank you, Lord Sword Master." Wang Dahai said happily, "But the small ship is small, with only one cabin for people. I can only feel sorry for the two Lord Sword Masters to let it go."

"Yes." Ou Chuyang nodded, followed Wang Dahai to the cabin, and placed Mu Wanqing on the bed.

Wang Changwei waited for his father to retreat, pulled aside and asked whispered: "Dad, I'm afraid they are the ones Tianhai Pavilion is looking for."

"I told you not to meddle in other people's business!" Wang Dahai slapped his son, "This Sword Lord doesn't look like a bad person. He requisitioned our ship and gave him so much money, just serve him well."

Although the conversation between the father and son was small, Ou Chuyang in the cabin could be heard clearly. People who practice swordsmanship have several times more physical and sensory feelings than ordinary people.

Ou Chuyang walked onto the deck and said frankly: "This guy guessed well. I killed Wu Yanzhao from Tianhai Pavilion. They are searching for it with all their might. If you can take it down, I will get at least 100,000 silver rewards."

"I must not dare!" Wang Dahai pulled his son down and begged for mercy: "The child is stupid and ignorant, please forgive me!"

Wang Changwei said with a look of surprise: "Sir, you killed Wu Yanzhao? That's great! You avenged the villain, and the villain kowtowed to you."

Ou Chuyang looked at Wang Changwei who had been kowtowing repeatedly and asked, "Wu Yanzhao has a noble status, what kind of grudge can he have against you?"

"Of course, Wu Yanzhao would not be as knowledgeable as us, but he committed suicide and forced Xiaohong's family to death..." Wang Changwei told a tragic story that was so common in this world.

"Get up." Ou Chuyang waved his hand. Wu Yanzhao was extremely vicious in dealing with people and things. The dog slaves under his command must have become more severe and the disasters were wider.

"Thank you, Lord Sword."

"My junior sister was injured and needed to take supplements. You decoct these medicinal materials into medicine soup and then make a big fish into fish soup." Ou Chuyang ordered and turned back to the cabin.

"We should stop calling our senior brothers and sisters anymore." Mu Wanqing said.

Ou Chuyang understood Mu Wanqing's meaning. Her national character is so beautiful that she can be called a disaster. If others know that she is famous and has no master, they will inevitably be moved. If the two pretend to be husband and wife, they can indeed avoid a lot of trouble.

"Life and death are serious, and I'll take power in urgent need of the matter. I'll take advantage of this verbal advantage." Ou Chuyang bowed, "Madam, my husband is polite."

Mu Wanqing was about to return the gift, but she saw Ou Chuyang's face dimming. Thinking that it had touched his sadness, she advised softly: "The deceased is gone, don't be too sad. Uncle Aoxue's spirit in the sky also hopes to see you live well and avenge her for revenge."

"Yeah." Ou Chuyang responded and turned around and went out, "You have a good rest, I'll go practice swords for a while."

Standing at the bow of the boat, facing the refreshing sea breeze, Ou Chuyang swung his swords together and quickly engraved thousands of sword words in the air. Only in this way can he temporarily let go of Mei Aoxue and let go of the deep sorrow and hatred in his heart like the sea.
