Chapter 21 The Story

There are a group of people who are traveling around the world and performing their skills in the heroes, and they are not so particular about traveling.

Although I took a whole boat to travel south this time, it was just a small passenger ship.

Most of the rooms on the boat were very small, only enough to place a bed, table and chair, and there were no cases.

In fact, after Lu Jing and Xia Huai put down their luggage, they almost filled the house by standing beside the bed.

No wonder Chen Tong and his gang were staying in the front cabin before.

Mr. Bai apologized slightly, "This... the environment is a little simpler, mainly because the business has not been easy to do recently."

"I can understand." Lu Jing asked, "How much is the ship fee?"

"No, no," Mr. Bai waved his hand quickly, "Anyway, the money for chartering a boat has been spent. There is no difference between you and you two more, just treat it as making friends."

After pausing, he continued, "The paper man skills of both of you are really amazing. I thought that you could beat Chen Tong, but I didn't expect that you would win so thoroughly. Can you ask the wisest question, do you have any plans in the future?"

Lu Jing had already thought of the words and said, "Oh, we plan to go to the south to seek refuge with one of my uncles."

Mr. Bai nodded, "The world is difficult now, and it is always a good thing to have relatives who can defect to you."

After saying that, he bowed to Lu Jing and Xia Huai again, "If you have any more needs, you can go to the room closest to the stern of the boat to find me. Mr. Bai will not disturb Mr. Xian."

When Mr. Bai left, only Lu Jing and Xia Huai were left in the small room.

Looking at the small bed where the two of them could only lie close together, Xia Huai felt a little regretful that he had lied to Lu Jing's wife before.

How to sleep here?

As if she knew what she was thinking, Lu Jing said, "You can sleep in the bed."

"What about you?"

“I’m sleeping in bed, too.”

“…………”

"I was just having fun. I could go to the front cabin. The place was quite big and there were chairs. You could sleep by putting a few chairs together." Lu Jing said.

Xia Huai shook his head, "If you are seen, you will definitely doubt our husband and wife's identity. It's important to do things, so don't make trouble."

She seemed to have made a great decision and pursed her lips and said, "Stay here."

"and you……"

"I will stay, too," Xia Huai said, "as long as we all wear clothes, we can have a clear conscience."

Her last four words were more like to say to herself, to convince herself to accept Lu Jing staying.

"Will you put a bowl of water in the middle?"

"What?"

"It's okay, I just suddenly remembered the story of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai. They seemed to have sleeped together like this." Lu Jing said.

"This is a story you made up by yourself," Xia Huai has read many books. She searched her mind and found no memories of these two names.

"No," Lu Jing said, "If you want to hear, I can tell you."

"Who wants to listen to this kind of story?" Xia Huai blushed, and then took the initiative to change the topic. "I think that Mr. Bai seems to have something to say."

"Well, he probably wants to bring us into the group to deal with Chen Tong."

"Is Chen Tong? Although that man has a stinky mouth, he does have real skills in his hands. I didn't see how he did the paper man technique he performed just now. What about you?"

"I didn't see it either." Lu Jing spread his hands.

Xia Huai was a little surprised when she heard this. She knew that Lu Jing's eye skills were excellent and she could even make it very clear.

Logically speaking, the small movements of the lottery actors should not be hidden from his eyes.

"I can roughly guess what his things are useful, and what his purpose is for each step, but I really didn't see any flaws when I saw them from the beginning to the end."

Lu Jing praised, "That guy is quite powerful, no wonder he can become a pillar of the heroes."

Although Lu Jing easily surpassed Chen Tong, he did not underestimate the other party because of this.

Because he used real magic to deal with Chen Tong's fake tricks, he was actually cheating, and it was normal to win, and there was nothing to be proud of.

This is also the reason why Lu Jing is unwilling to stay in the front cabin. He is afraid that the people from the Heroes will blow him out too much. Although he is not thin-skinned, he will be a little embarrassed.

It’s better to leave quietly and establish a mysterious and cold master image by the way, so as not to ask questions again.

After Lu Jing said this, he heard another movement at the door.

To be precise, the rustling sound came from under the door of the room.

I saw a small paper man who was cut very much, sucking his body flat, floating in through the gap between the door and the floor, then stood up, patted the dust on his body, and jumped onto Lu Jing's palm.

"I just ordered it to go around the cabin. Now it seems that everything is normal. Except for some people who stay in their own houses and haven't come out, there are no ambush on the boat. It seems that they are really just group of artists who are traveling around the world."

Lu Jing looked at the little paper man and gestured to the back path.

After saying that, he closed his hands and the paper man was pressed into his palm. After a while, there was no movement and he turned back into an ordinary paper man.

"This is the best," Xia Huai said, "I hope I can get to the place where Guo Shaojian asked us to go as soon as possible."

…………

The two of them were basically staying in the room for the next two days, and they never went out except for having dinner.

Meditation and practice during the day, and sleep in the evening.

Unfortunately, the paper frog was always quiet and there was no movement.

However, on the third day, someone knocked on their door again.

Lu Jing thought it was Mr. Bai who came to persuade them to join the heroes again.

Unexpectedly, the girl who sang Beijing lyrics was standing outside the door.

"Miss Xiaolian?" Lu Jing raised his eyebrows.

"Brother Lu, Sister Xia, can I go in?" Xiaolian said, his tone a little anxious.

"I don't object to your coming in, but are you sure you can come in by yourself?"

Lu Jing looked at the narrow and cramped house. After the two of them had already squeezed in, there was almost no room for a third person to settle down here.

However, before he finished speaking, Xiaolian had already flashed and entered.

Well, it seems that she not only knows how to sing Beijing lyrics, but also learns some dancing skills.

This waist is obviously practiced.

Even her drill was almost about to get into Lu Jing's arms.

Lu Jing glanced at Xia Huai beside him and simply retreated back to the bed.

Xiaolian had already closed the door at this time.

Her heartbeats very fast, and Lu Jing and Xia Huai could hear her thumping heartbeat from such a distance.

"You...you are targeted." Xiaolian said in a low voice.
