[Chapter 178 - A big black ship] Since you are about to fight, can you leave first?

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Wen's parents returned to Jiangnan, while Zhou Mubai followed the caravan to sail out to sea, saying that he would meet a few friends. The house became quiet again, and the secret guards were all sighing, and they didn't know where the Lord Shangbao and the others had gone, but they hadn't come back for so long.

In the vast East China Sea, a huge merchant ship was walking through the waves. Shang Yunze shook his cloak and wrapped him in: "Go back and sleep for a while?"

"Not sleepy." Mu Qingshan shook his head and refused.

"It's just that I'm going out of the sea, why are I so excited?" Shang Yunze couldn't laugh or cry. "I wake up before dawn, and I have to make a fuss until midnight before I'm willing to sleep. I'm not sleepy during the day."

"I haven't taken a boat before." Mu Qingshan's eyes shining brightly, "I never thought I could go out to sea."

"Then I've been sitting for more than ten days, it's time to sit for enough." Shang Yunze hugged his shoulders, "Be good, come back to the cabin with me, and the wind will blow up later."

"I won't go back!" Mu Qingshan protested.

"If you don't go back, I'll kiss you." Shang Yunze threatened.

Mu Qingshan kicked him, not scared at all.

Shang Yunze took a deep breath. Just as he was about to force the person back, a melodious singing sound came from his ears.

"Huh?" Mu Qingshan felt a little strange, "Have you heard any sound?"

"Yes." Shang Yunze nodded.

"That's not that I heard it wrong." Mu Qingshan looked around, "But it's all the sea, how could there be singing?"

"Maybe... it's the people in the sea singing?" Shang Yunze raised his eyebrows.

"A mermaid?" Mu Qingshan was surprised.

"I guessed it nonsense." Shang Yunze gently covered his mouth and listened intently for a while, "It's gone now."

"But we all heard it just now." Mu Qingshan looked down the boat, "I don't know if he would swim over."

"Two guests." The owner of the ship followed the voice and said, "Go back to the cabin quickly. It's not peaceful in front of you, so it's better not to show up."

"Why is it not peaceful?" Mu Qingshan frowned.

"I don't know this young master. There is Beshawan in front of him, and the famous ** formation in the East China Sea." The ship owner said, "There are monsters inside."

"What monster?" Mu Qingshan asked again.

"I don't know this. If I see it, there will be no life." The ship owner waved his hands repeatedly, "Customers should enter the cabin quickly, and it will be fine if you bypass this area."

"Thank you for your reminder." Shang Yunze pulled Mu Qingshan, and the two of them pulled back to their residence together.

"Why don't you look at it for a while?" Mu Qingshan was puzzled, "Maybe you can really see the mermaid."

"The mermaid is not a flying fish, you can see it casually. Besides, there is a lot of fog near Besha Bay, so I can't let you in danger." Shang Yunze poured him a glass of water, "I will go to Haicai Island tomorrow night. When I see Aunt Zihua, it's not too late to ask her if you have any questions."

"Yes." Mu Qingshan thought for a while and asked again, "Will Aunt Zihua be very fierce?"

"A little bit." Shang Yunze held him and sat beside the bed, "But that's an outsider, you're your own family."

"But she wanted to marry her niece to you before." Mu Qingshan reminded.

Shang Yunze was funny: "I mentioned it accidentally, you remember it clearly."

Mu Qingshan kicked him, just remember it clearly!

"It's just thinking, it's fine if I don't want to. It's not that other girls can't get married, so I'm not alone." Shang Yunze matched his forehead, "Is it good to do something bad?"

"I won't do it." Mu Qingshan pinched his mouth fiercely.

"The words are right and wrong." Shang Yunze turned over and pressed the person on the bed, lowered his head and kissed him.

Xiaomu put his face to the side.

Well, then just do it once.

The night was extremely calm, and the fleet successfully bypassed Besha Bay and sent people to Haicai Island in the evening the next day.

"Master Shangbao?" A familiar voice came to his ears.

"How come Brother Zhou is here?" After seeing Zhou Mubai, Shang Yunze and Mu Qingshan were also a little surprised.

"This is a coincidence." Zhou Mubai smiled, "I just heard Aunt Zihua say that the Lord of Shangbao would come yesterday, but I didn't expect to see someone today. I think it's the same thing as I did."

"Belshawan?" Mu Qingshan guessed.

Zhou Mubai nodded: "Go to meet Aunt Zihua first. She has cleaned up a quiet courtyard with her own hands early in the morning and said that she would have more than a dozen times, so why is it not enough?"

Compared with Luoying Island, Haicai Island is much larger and can almost catch up with a large inland town. The island owner is Zihua Grandma. It is said that she was originally from a martial arts family in the Central Plains. Later, she was unwilling to be accused of marriage by her father and brother and escaped from the sea. When she arrived at Haicai Island, she saw that the people were living a miserable life, so she led more than a dozen islanders to punish the bullies and later helped the people develop fishery, which was quite legendary.

"This is the most prosperous island in the East China Sea." Shang Yunze walked and said to Mu Qingshan, "I will take you to have a walk after you have settled, it's no worse than inland."

"It smells so good." Someone on the roadside sold grilled fish, and baskets of sweet and sour wild fruits. Mu Qingshan was almost dazzled. "Adults will definitely like it very much."

"It's not only adults who like it, but also pirates. They led their troops to rob, burn, kill, loot the people and suffered great harm, but the court refused to send troops to rescue them." Shang Yunze said, "In the end, Aunt Zihua couldn't bear it anymore and led the fishermen to capture the enemy leader and hang it on the pillar for three days before finally getting peace."

Mu Qingshan was surprised: "So amazing."

"That's natural. How can a group of pirates who are used to bullying the weak and fearing the strong? How can they compare to the young ladies of the Central Plains martial arts family?" Shang Yunze whispered, "I am still a tough young lady." Even now, his temperament when he was a girl has not changed at all. When he saw him at the martial arts conference, he said he wanted to take him home to go on a blind date for his niece. He was unhappy when he was rejected. In the end, he almost made a fuss and was not acquainted.

Mu Qingshan had never seen many young ladies in the Central Plains martial arts world, so he thought about Hua Tang wearing purple clothes. His hair was grayer and he thought it would be almost done. Unexpectedly, after meeting, he was a kind-hearted aunt, smiling and speaking nicely, and he didn't look like he was a rude person.

"You are just a little Mutou, your little looks so pretty." Aunt Zihua pulled him back and forth and obviously liked it very much.

"Aunt." Mu Qingshan greeted with a smile.

"A few days ago, I was telling Mingchuan that I would go out for a walk and relax after the New Year." Aunt Zihua ordered the servants to make tea, "I didn't expect that one or two of you would come to me, and I think I would go to the Three Treasures Hall without any trouble."

"Cough." Zhou Mubai touched his nose, "Who said that I just wanted to visit my aunt, and had no other intentions."

"You only have this mouth." Aunt Zihua shook her head, "I'm waving outside all day long, and I don't know what it would be like to start a family and start a business as soon as possible."

Zhou Mubai calmly drank tea.

"Neither of these two people believe it." Aunt Zihua patted Mu Qingshan's hand, "Go away from now on, you are a scholar, don't be led to the destruction."

"Yes." Mu Qingshan nodded obediently.

Shang Yunze widened his eyes, and he agreed?

"Tell me, what's the matter?" Aunt Zihua peeled walnuts for Mu Qingshan.

"Belshawan." Shang Yunze and Zhou Mubai said in unison.

"Belshawan?" Aunt Zihua frowned, "Why do you ask about this?"

"I heard that it is the ** formation?" Shang Yunze said.

"Yes, but it's not the latest thing. Everyone has been used to it for a long time and will walk around the boat." Aunt Zihua said, "I haven't heard of any trouble, why do you both suddenly come and ask?"

"It is said that there are mermaids there." Zhou Mubai said.

"Nothing nonsense, there are no mermaids in this world." Aunt Zihua didn't believe it. "Mingchuan also said he saw mermaids when he was a child. Later, several uncles worked together to catch them, and they were just a big fish with weird appearance."

"But when we were passing by, we heard the singing," Mu Qingshan emphasized.

"That's the big yellow croaker." Aunt Zihua said, "It's not a mermaid sea monster."

"Have you ever been to Beshawan?" Shang Yunze asked again.

"No, I have nothing to do, so why take risks?" said Aunt Zihua, "It's cloudy and foggy, and it's too late to walk around. Could it be that you want to get in?"

Shang Yunze nodded: "I want to go in and take a look."

"That's not possible, it's dangerous." Aunt Zihua shook her head, "The sea is not as good as on land, and you should not act rashly."

"In so many years, my aunt has never heard of rumors about the mermaids in Beshawan?" Zhou Mubai asked again, "Not at all?"

"I'm not confused yet, I can't remember this." Aunt Zihua complained.

He really got nothing... Zhou Mubai sighed.

"Why, I'm getting impatient when I can't ask?" Aunt Zihua was dissatisfied.

"How could it be?" Zhou Mubai quickly laughed out loud, "Even if he didn't ask about it, it would be great to visit his aunt, right, Brother Shang."

"Natural." Shang Yunze nodded.

“The scenery on the island is very good.” Ki Aoyama said, “The grilled fish is delicious.”

"What are the small vendors on the street? I'll bake them for you later." Aunt Zihua held his hand and said, "Let's go, I'll take you around the island first."

"Okay." Mu Qingshan was very happy.

Watching them go out, Zhou Mubai sighed: "Sure enough, both mother-in-law and aunt like gentle and innocent scholars."

"It just so happens that you and I will go out for a drink." Shang Yunze said, "I heard that the flower brew on this island is good."

"Is it because Brother Shang was so greedy for drinking?" Zhou Mubai joked.

Shang Yunze patted his shoulder, and everything was indifferent.

It happened that the market was set up on the sea vegetable island, and people were making noise everywhere. Although it was the first month of the year, it was not cold. Mu Qingshan looked at everything. Finally, I bought a fish cake and ate it slowly with salt. My mouth was covered with fine white powder.

"This little body is thin." Aunt Zihua pinched his arm, "Isn't it okay to eat like a cat? Isn't it used to this East China Sea thing?"

"No, it's delicious." Mu Qingshan stuffed the rest of the fish cake into his mouth, "I've eaten less."

"Eat more and be likeable." Aunt Zihua taught.
