Chapter 12 Is it just the beginning and the end is coming?
Ouyang's original plan was for them to have a good meal after the fleet docked.
Then seek the help of official forces to find Xue Lian's whereabouts together.
He has many plans in mind for this.
Even if everything goes wrong, he can still choose to send twenty shipments of goods to Haiqi Island.
Let them put pressure on Narukami Island on Yaoji Island and draw attention away.
When the time comes, he can also fish in troubled waters and sneak into Narukami Island to explore.
But this worst-case scenario was always what he wanted to avoid.
He knew very well that without official help, finding someone would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
It's a pity that there is no spell in Taoism that can be used to find people, otherwise there would be no need to go to such trouble.
But...accidents always follow.
He thought of various methods, and even wrote several plans when he was bored on the boat and simulated various scenarios he could think of.
But!
I just never thought that an unplanned fugitive would hide in my boat the first time I docked!
Ouyang calmly walked towards the perceived location with Shen He and Beidou.
In the dim cabin, the three people came to the cargo hold below the deck.
There are large boxes piled here, all of which are gunpowder, so the smell in this cabin is not pleasant.
The system thoughtfully projects the perceived "guests" onto the line of sight and marks the distance.
Taking two steps forward, Ouyang stopped.
At this time, in front of the three people was a cargo box that was as tall as one person. Both the system prompts and their perceptions clearly indicated that the uninvited guest was behind the cargo box.
After a pause, Ouyang said: "Please come out by yourself, we can have a chat."
The reason why he didn't take action directly was that Ouyang wanted to have a good chat and get some information about Dao Wife from the other party.
Although the other party is suspected to be the fugitive that Jiu Tiao wants to arrest, he is not a fugitive from Liyue anyway, so Ouyang doesn't care.
What's more, the person who fled because of the Eye Hunting Order is most likely a poor person.
Cough, cough cough...
There was a coughing sound, followed by the sound of clothes rubbing against the cargo box.
In the shadow, the visitor did not completely step out of the shadow, but leaned against the back of the cargo box, revealing half of his hat.
"Ahem... I'm sorry. I had no choice but to cause trouble to you... Ahem... I'll leave right away..."
After saying that, Wan Ye forced himself to stand up and prepare to leave.
He is not a character who wants to cause trouble to others, so he hid on this ship as a last resort this time.
I really didn't expect Kujo Sanra to pursue him so closely, and the space for him to escape became smaller and smaller.
Forced into desperation, after seeing Ouyang's fleet, he hid in.
He knew that he was a fugitive, so Wanyo was only prepared to stay for one night to recover from his injuries, and then leave quietly.
It only took a moment before the owner of the ship came looking for him.
But as soon as he stood up, he heard a unanimous question coming from behind: "Wanyu?"
Um?
Wanyo, who was in the shadows, suddenly turned around when he heard this.
Unfortunately, in the dim light, because all three of them had their backs to the light, he could not see their faces clearly.
At this time, a little spiritual light floated to the top, illuminating the space under the light.
It was also at this moment that the four people looked at each other.
Manyo didn't recognize two of the three, but he had met Beidou before.
"It turns out it's you..."
I don’t know if it was because I felt relaxed because I saw someone I knew, or if I really couldn’t hold on any longer.
As soon as Wan Ye opened his mouth, he fell down.
Beidou immediately rushed forward to help the other party, and shouted anxiously: "Manye? What's wrong with you?"
Ouyang also stepped forward and squatted down.
He stretched out his hand to pull open Wanyu's clothes, and what caught his eye was the bright red blood seeping out of the bandage on his shoulder.
"How could he be so seriously injured?"
"I don't know, I'll look for Ginkgo first!"
With that said, Beidou was about to carry Manyo out. Ginkgo was the ship's doctor on the Death Star.
She wants to take him out for treatment.
But as soon as she made her move, Ouyang reached out to stop her.
In Beidou's confused eyes, Ouyang said seriously: "Don't move, your rough approach may cause secondary damage."
"Besides, it shouldn't be a big problem."
According to the system prompts, the life breath of Manyo is still OK at this time, so there is no need to be so nervous.
Ouyang stretched out his hand to explore the wound, and his spiritual power entered Wan Ye's body and traveled through all the meridians throughout his body, and found that the problem was really not big.
who!
A little spiritual light bloomed from Ouyang's hand and entered Wanye's body under his control.
The wound under the bandage healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"alright."
"alright?!"
Beidou looked at Ouyang, who looked relaxed, and then at Wanyo, who had fallen asleep. His emotions were a little inconsistent.
A big living person just suffered a penetrating injury to his shoulder and fell down. Within a minute, he was healed?!
Seeing that she still looked a little worried, Ouyang explained: "The technique just now is a treatment technique, which is very useful for trauma. But the subsequent treatment needs to be judged by your ship's doctor."
"Come on, let's go out together now."
With a wave of his hand, a soft energy enveloped the many leaves, causing them to float.
Ouyang guided him to a new cabin and carefully placed Wanyo on the bed.
After doing all this, Ouyang looked at the sleeping Wanyu and felt extremely weird in his heart.
It's just... quite sudden.
I originally thought it was some nimble and agile thief or assassin, but it turned out to be Manyo.
Now things are simpler and more convenient.
Wan Ye's friend is the man Xue Lian falls in love with.
Now that man died in a duel before the emperor for some unknown reason.
In despair, Xue Lian also disappeared.
Maybe he couldn't get out of the dilemma in his heart and chose to commit suicide, or maybe he simply disappeared.
It seems that all this can be clarified as soon as Manyo wakes up.
To be honest, after thinking about all this, Ouyang became a little nervous.
After Beidou found the ship's doctor, Ouyang took Shen He away from here and headed to the deck.
It was already evening, and the red sun still exposed most of its body above the sea and sky.
The brilliance of the setting sun dyed the sky and sea red.
This is the beauty that Ouyang has not been able to discover these days.
The two of them leaned against the side of the boat, enjoying the gusts of sea breeze, and said nothing.
When the sun was about to completely set, Shen He couldn't hold back and asked: "You seem a little nervous?"
"Um."
With a soft "hmm", Ouyang squinted his eyes slightly and explained somewhat unconfidently: "The answer to Xue Lian's life or death seems to be known as long as the man just wakes up. So I am a little nervous."
"Why?"
"His name is Wan Ye, and his friend is the man Xue Lian likes. So Wan Ye must have had contact with Xue Lian. Even if he doesn't know Xue Lian's life or death, he should know her whereabouts."
With that said, Ouyang hugged Shen He in his arms.
He needs some psychological comfort but doesn't know how to express it.
Strictly and cold-bloodedly speaking, Ouyang has no family affection for Xue Lian.
What maintains their relationship, apart from Gui Jin's child Gui Chuanyu, is moral restraint.
If you marry into a noble family, you will naturally become a member of the noble family.
As the head of the family, he has the responsibility and obligation to protect his family, even if he doesn't meet this family very often.
Thinking of Gui Chuanyu's smiling face, Ouyang sincerely hoped that this time would have a good ending.
