The child raised his black face and said respectfully: "Eleven years old!"
Listening to this crisp and tender voice, Nan Yanxi was suddenly a little surprised.
With how thin he is, he really doesn't look like a half-eleven-year-old child.
Because the sun on the sea is more poisonous, it tanned the already delicate skin.
The dirty and messy short hair covers the dark little face, which really gives him a sense of déjà vu from Situ Yan back then.
"What is your name?"
"embolus!"
"Okay." Nan Yanxi agreed and turned to look at the captain of the ship again.
The boss of the boat took notice and hurriedly introduced him: "My surname is Hu. I am the third in the family. Everyone calls me ***san."
"Oh...Brother **, let me ask, how long have you been in the maritime passenger transport business?"
"Hey, my ancestors have been doing this for three generations. As long as I can remember, I have been making a living on the boat."
"Yeah..." Nan Yanxi suddenly became interested after hearing this.
"Then Brother ** has research on shipbuilding and navigation."
**Sanyi heard this and immediately said confidently: "To reply to your words, my guest, I am not as good as those masters of shipbuilding, but I still have some experience in building sea-going ships."
"As for sailing, I am not bragging about it. Just by smelling the wind on the sea, I can calculate the weather at sea in the next three days."
"Without this ability, my broken boat would have been buried in the belly of the fish long ago."
"Okay, okay..." After hearing this, Nan Yanxi was very happy and hurriedly helped the two of them up.
"Let's see. I like this kid, so I'll accept him as my apprentice."
"As for Brother **... I will get you a letter in a moment, and you can go back to the Qinglian Sword Sect's new shipyard to take up a position."
"Just go find a female general named Yang Yuxuan and give her the letter."
"Both of you serve in my team, so you two, father and son, don't have to be so different from each other anymore."
As soon as these words came out, *** San was moved to tears.
Finally, I no longer have to worry about living in the cracks.
The old man burst into tears of gratitude, and kowtowed to him with the bolt.
Nan Yanxi smiled and helped the two of them up, and ordered: "Brother **, we will be docking soon. Go and pack Shuanzi and ask him to follow me later."
"It doesn't have to be too much. Just clean it up. I don't need anything else."
"Hey, okay, okay..." *** San agreed happily, turned around and walked out.
At this time, only Nan Yanxi and Shuanzi were left in the cabin.
Turning his head to look at his father's leaving figure, Shuanzi suddenly became shy.
He kept his head down, not daring to look at him.
Seeing this, Nan Yanxi couldn't help but feel a little sad, thinking that she would just go out and do nothing else, just accept her subordinates.
I accepted Jiang Yingxue, and before I could warm myself up, a third party came. Now I have another disciple.
Nan Yanxi just thought it was a little funny.
With his three-legged cat skills, he was able to accept a disciple, and he was still a little black egg.
Looking down at the dark little face, Nan Yanxi stretched out her hand and grabbed Shuan's slightly baby-fat face.
"Tsk tsk tsk... Are you really eleven years old? I think you are only seven or eight years old."
"Ouch...it hurts..." Xiao Shuanzi touched Nan Yanxi's hand unhappily.
"My dad said I'm growing too late. I'll definitely grow taller in two years!"
Seeing the cute look of this little guy, Nan Yanxi couldn't help but want to tease him.
Then he deceived and said: "Oh, your father is lying to you. It won't be long enough in another two years."
"I see you will be this tall from now on!"
"Uh..." Shuanzi blinked: "Just...that high?"
He stretched out his hand to compare himself and Nan Yanxi. He curled his lips and almost cried.
Nan Yanxi was about to say something else when Mo Qingyan's voice suddenly came from behind her.
"Who said it won't grow anymore? Don't believe him Shuanzi, he's lying to you!"
Nan Yanxi turned her head when she heard the sound and saw that the two women had finished washing and were standing behind him: "Have you two finally come out?"
"Hurry up and eat. We'll be docked in an hour at most."
"Wow, so many delicious foods..."
Mo Qingyan laughed, sat down, picked up a piece of fried fish and ate it.
He said vaguely: "Well... I heard that you have accepted a disciple?"
"Yeah..." Nan Yanxi smiled and hugged Shuanzi's shoulders: "How is it? Not bad, right?"
Mo Yunxi, who was on the side, seized the opportunity and said: "You have the skills of a three-legged cat to accept an apprentice?"
"Are you trying to mislead others?"
"Ahem..."
When Nan Yanxi heard this, she sweated profusely and said to herself, "How dare you, a little girl, laugh at me? Let's see how I punish you."
Then he said to Shuanzi: "Disciple, these two are your master wives, go and kowtow!"
"Oh..." Shuanzi obeyed, turned around and knelt down towards the two women.
This operation made the two women blush.
...
In less than an hour, the passenger ship slowly docked, leaving a letter for ***san, and everyone in Nan Yanxi got off the ship.
Jiang Yingxue said goodbye because her family was in the countryside.
Nan Yanxi nodded and told him to go to Li Qi as soon as possible to avoid attracting the attention of the Zhang family and causing more trouble.
Taking her young apprentice Shuan Zi and the two girls from the Mo family, Nan Yanxi first went to the horse and mule market to buy a carriage.
Then he drove to the county seat of Pinghai County.
It was about two miles from the dock to the county seat. Nan Yanxi was sitting in front driving the carriage, while the two girls from the Mo family and Shuanzi were sitting in the carriage.
After walking a short distance, Mo Qingyan in the car quietly stuck out her head.
She leaned into his ear and whispered: "Yan Xi, be careful, someone is following us."
"Oh?" When Nan Yanxi heard this, she shrugged relentlessly: "You don't need to guess who it is."
"It seems that Liu Damin is very tight-lipped and has not disclosed our whereabouts."
"Well, that's true." Mo Qingyan nodded: "We'll just have to be in trouble for a while."
"It's okay, just do some activities!"
Nan Yanxi smiled when he heard this and raised the whip in his hand: "Drive!"
The horse muttered lowly and then started to trot.
In the woods behind him, two men in black, one fat and one thin, slowly emerged from the darkness.
The fat man among them looked at the trotting carriage and asked doubtfully: "Did you notice us?"
"It's possible. Mu Qingyan's martial arts is very high. I heard from the brothers that the other two are not easy either."
Another thinner man in black mused: "I heard that one of them is no longer inferior to Jiang Yingxue in martial arts."
"But fortunately, this time the young master spent a lot of money and hired several masters overnight. Together with me and others, we will definitely be able to capture them."
Then he ordered: "Inform the young master and prepare to take action!"
"Okay!" The fat man agreed, took out a homing pigeon from his arms and threw it into the air.
Phew la la la la la... The homing pigeon spread its wings and flew forward, and disappeared in an instant.
At this time, in the carriage, Mo Qingyan was giving instructions to Xiao Shuanzi.
"Good boy, just hide in the carriage and don't go out for a while, be good..."
