Chapter 2420: Secrets in the Ship
This is also the reason why Peng Shui has an all-round personality and always gets along with monks from all walks of life.
There is no way out through hard work. Only by knowing more can you have more opportunities.
In a few days, Peng Shui's character of having both sides brought to full play among everyone.
Compared with other monks, medicine cultivators have a simpler personality and don't have so much scheming.
Peng Shui is a master at this. He often speaks a few words and shows off his ability in refining medicine, which makes the other party admire and trust him. He talks about a lot of heart-wrenching things, almost making him a confidant.
So three days later, when Qin Cheng and Peng Shui met in the room as agreed, Peng Shui had already mastered the monks in the spirit boat.
"Qin Cheng, you are right, something is indeed wrong."
Peng Shui suppressed the gentle smile he had in front of outsiders, and felt a little sinister.
There were only Qin Cheng, Peng Shui, Le Wen and Lu Qing in the room. Qin Cheng had set up a separate shielding formation, so he was not afraid of being heard by others.
"Tell me more specifically." Qin Cheng narrowed his eyes and said.
"Many, such as the proportion of monks in the spirit ship. Counting the monks who have not been out in the past few days, there are about one hundred and twenty monks in this spirit ship. Among them, more than seventy of them I have come into contact with are pharmacists." Peng Shui said.
"What grade?"
"Almost all of them are medicine masters, and most of them are third-grade medicine masters."
"Except Yaozun, how about the other monks?"
"Half of them are hard to get in touch with. They are wary and cold."
"Where are the monks guarding the spirit ship?"
"It's a bit like, deliberately keeping a distance from us and keeping silent."
"What did you see?"
After telling his story, Peng Shui asked Qin Cheng again.
"The spirit ship has more than one divine pattern, and it is complex and exquisite, and is as strong as gold." Qin Cheng said.
"Looks like there's trouble."
"It's quite a problem."
"Wait a minute? I can't understand a word you two say."
Lu Qing was already stunned.
At first, when Peng Shui said there was trouble, he was quite nervous. Wasn't the spirit boat running very smoothly? Where did the trouble come from?
As a result, the conversation between the two of them was like playing charades, and the more they talked, the more dizzy his head became.
What kind of medicine master, bodyguard, what does this have to do with trouble.
Although Le Wen felt something unusual, he didn't fully understand it.
"It's okay. You don't have to worry about this. As long as you know that this spirit ship may not be that safe, just be careful." Qin Cheng did not explain, but shook his head.
Even if there are some clues, there is no evidence.
Moreover, there were some things for which he and Peng Shui had similar ideas. Even if he told Lu Qing and Lu Qing now, they might not be able to help, and they might even have to help.
"Find an opportunity to test it out?" Peng Shui said.
"We have to test it. We still don't know what the other party's purpose is." Qin Cheng said.
"But it should have nothing to do with the people following us, otherwise there would be no need to go to war."
Peng Shui also nodded.
Wait for Qin Cheng to return to his room.
"Qin Cheng, what kind of riddle are you kidding? I don't even understand." Fu Mo said with some embarrassment.
Fortunately, I followed Qin Cheng all the way and thought I knew Qin Cheng very well, but until now, I am still confused.
"I'm within your consciousness, so I won't be exposed. Tell me what's going on."
"Actually, it may not have anything to do with me, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it," Qin Cheng said.
"Fu Mo, Peng Shui said that more than 60% of the passengers on this spiritual ship are medicine men. Do you think it's a little strange?"
"What's weird?" Fu Mo asked casually.
“Isn’t it the pharmacist who attracts the most attention at the South Island Medicine Master’s Banquet?”
"That's true, but are all the people who cross this vast sea area and come to the South Island all pharmacists?" Qin Cheng narrowed his eyes and asked.
The reason why South Island attracts the attention of many monks from the mainland is not just because of the concentration of pharmacists, but also because there are so many pharmacists that ordinary monks can seek medical advice here.
Therefore, every time the Medicine Master's Banquet is held, the number of monks who do not know how to refine alchemy actually outnumbers the Medicine Master.
"And the reason why I'm so anxious to leave is because I want to meet Wan'er. The pharmacist's banquet is not over yet. Are the other pharmacists so anxious to go back?"
"But it's also possible that other pharmacists have urgent matters." Fu Mo said unwillingly.
"Then the price of this spiritual ship should be very expensive. After all, it is the first spiritual ship to leave the South Island, but I heard from Lu Qing that its price is extremely low."
"Did they happen to meet so many medicine cultivators on the boat, or did they deliberately reject many ordinary monks and only recruit medicine cultivators?"
"Also, Peng Shui said that there are ordinary monks on the spiritual ship, but they are very indifferent to Peng Shui."
"Can't it be a problem with their character?" Fu Mo said.
"Don't think too simply." Qin Cheng sneered.
"Ordinary monks who come to the Medicine Master's Banquet risk life and death to cross the turbulent sea area in order to get to know a capable medicine cultivator. But with Peng Shui's strength, it is not too much for them to flock to him. If he takes the initiative to talk, they stay away?"
"In addition to the divine patterns I discovered, it can be said that in order to stabilize the spiritual ship, but those who have the strength to build a spiritual ship of this scale are going to earn the medicine master's boat ride at a very low price. What are they trying to do?"
Fu Mo was stunned. After Qin Cheng asked questions repeatedly, he also felt that it was indeed a bit strange.
There is something wrong with the spirit ship, there is something wrong with the monks inside the ship, and even Dai Feng and the others are indeed acting strangely.
But this guy Qin Cheng was able to detect the problem from the moment he got on the ship. How did he do it?
"Qin Cheng, what do you think these people are doing?" Fu Mo said.
"Not sure, but since they didn't take action, they must be waiting for an opportunity." Qin Cheng's eyes flashed.
"I'll find an opportunity later to test them."
If you want it to be such a peaceful place, Dai Feng and others can't reveal anything.
Only by doing something yourself can it be easier to detect their thoughts.
After thinking for a while, Qin Cheng refined several pills.
Then he pretended to be distracted and walked to the front of the spirit ship.
Several guard monks looked over, but when they saw Qin Cheng just staring at the sea in a daze, they didn't say anything.
But then, suddenly, Qin Cheng jumped and floated above the sea.
Swish!
Immediately afterwards, two figures suddenly flew up, one on the left and one on the right, floating on both sides of Qin City.
It was the two escorting monks who followed Dai Feng.
"Fellow Taoist, Senior Dai once said that the stormy sea area is extremely dangerous, so you should go back and endure it for a few days." One of the short-bearded men said with a smile.
Qin Cheng said calmly: "But I remember that Senior Dai also said that the rule is that you cannot leave within a hundred feet of the spirit ship. In my position, I should not break the rules."
"It's true as I said, but it's dangerous for fellow Taoist to stay here for nothing," the man emphasized.
