Chapter 137: A Man Does Not Speak of Strange Things (10th update, please subscribe! Please bookmark!)
It was late at night.
Ling Su and Xiao Hanyi shared a room.
Su Jiu was not worried about them. With their current strength, there were not many people in the martial arts world who wanted to get rid of them without anyone noticing.
Su Jiu, Tang Lianyue and Xiao Tanglian shared a room.
In fact, Su Jiu wanted to have a room by himself.
Unfortunately, this was a merchant ship after all, and there were not many seats.
Just when Su Jiu had fallen into a deep sleep, a faint "Yiyaya" sound suddenly came from outside the window.
Su Jiu and Tang Lianyue opened their eyes almost immediately.
The two looked at each other, and Su Jiu shook his head slightly.
No matter what the sound was, it seemed to be some distance away from them, and the target should not be them, so it would be better not to take the initiative to cause trouble.
Soon, the sound disappeared.
It looked like someone on the night shift was in a good mood and sang a few lines of opera, but soon realized that he was not at home, so he shut up.
But Su Jiu felt an inexplicable sense of uneasiness in his heart.
With his cultivation level, he had already resonated with the world. Something must have happened on this ship, so he had this reaction.
But~
Who cares.
Su Jiu closed his eyes and prepared to go back to sleep.
Just then, someone knocked on the window.
Tang Lianyue glanced at Su Jiu and saw him nod, then he slowly opened the window with the fingertip blade in his hand.
"You two?"
The people who came were Ling Su and Xiao Hanyi.
Tang Lianyue opened the window and someone quietly turned over and came in.
"Master, did you hear the singing?"
"Did you hear it too?" Su Jiu nodded: "It has nothing to do with us, don't meddle."
"There is a smell of blood." Ling Su frowned and said: "I heard the noise just now and wanted to investigate. As a result, I smelled a faint smell of blood at the door of Yizi Warehouse. I was afraid that my junior sister was in trouble, so I retreated."
"Someone is in trouble in Yizi Warehouse."
Tang Lianyue frowned all of a sudden.
What can Su Jiu do?
Sigh.
I took the boat twice in total. The last time, the goods of Xiushui Villa were lost. This time, it was suspected to be private.
It's really the protagonist template.
Where you go, there will be trouble.
At this time, Su Jiu suddenly remembered that Dong Haowen, whom he met during the day, lived in Yizi Warehouse.
This is a merchant ship, used to transport goods. The owner may have traveled around frequently and met many passengers on the ship, so he converted two floors into guest rooms.
It has become a dual-purpose ship for both business and passengers.
The cabins have two floors. The lower floor is the four warehouse areas of Zi, Chou, Yin, and Mao. The rooms are smaller and the light is worse.
The upper floor is the four warehouse areas of Jia, Yi, Bing, and Ding. The rooms are larger and the light is better.
Su Jiu and his friends lived in the Bing-zi warehouse area.
Dong Haowen and his boss lived in the Yi-zi warehouse area.
"It can't be such a coincidence, right?"
Su Jiu thought for a while, and waved his hand: "You two sleep here today, I'll give you the bed."
"Master, don't you want to go and take a look?"
"Where do you get so much curiosity?" Su Jiu knocked on Xiao Hanyi's head: "Go to sleep."
Su Jiu thought that this night would not be quiet.
However, nothing happened next.
No one spoke all night until dawn. (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
Su Jiu didn't think too much, and took his three apprentices to practice on the deck.
After a while, Dong Haowen appeared.
"Brother Su, good morning?"
"Good morning."
Looking at him, he looked quite good, so he must have slept well last night.
"Are these your three disciples?"
Yesterday, the two of them talked about this topic.
"Yes."
"You can tell at first glance that they are gifted." Dong Haowen smiled and praised him.
Su Jiuze blinked and asked, "Where is your boss?"
"He went to check the cargo." Dong Haowen answered without hesitation, "There are all kinds of people on this ship, and there are often petty thefts. Therefore, the first thing the boss does every day when he wakes up is to check the cargo."
"Do you go in person every time?"
"The boss is worried about other people."
Dong Haowen smiled, and suddenly his face changed, and he came up: "Brother Su, did you hear anything last night?"
"Hmm?" []
Su Jiu remained calm: "What?"
"The sound of opera." Dong Haowen looked a little terrified: "The sound of a woman singing opera."
Su Jiu thought for a moment: "I heard it, what's wrong?"
"You heard it too?" Dong Haowen looked even more terrified: "It turns out that I didn't hear it myself, there really was a woman singing opera."
"There was a woman singing opera."
"I like opera, so what's so strange about singing a few lines?"
"It's not strange at ordinary times, but it was already 2:30 in the morning, late at night, how could someone sing opera?"
Dong Haowen looked around and confirmed that there was no one else, then he continued cautiously: "I heard that a murder case had occurred in the Jiacang of this ship."
"Jiacang?" Su Jiu frowned: "The sound of singing opera came from Jiacang?"
"Yes." Dong Haowen nodded repeatedly: "I heard it clearly."
"So what do you mean~"
"A gentleman does not talk about strange things." Dong Haowen first put on a "dominant suit" and then slowly said: "It is said that the victim of the murder case, 867, was a courtesan in a theater.
She was deceived by a quack, and she used her life's money to redeem herself with sweet words and followed the quack to make a living.
ConclusionAs a result, under the poverty, the Jianghu guest actually wanted him to return to the land of prostitution, and even the lowest brothel.
The two sides had a fight in Jiazi Warehouse, and the Jianghu guest killed the actor in a rage.
From then on, Jiazi Warehouse would occasionally hear the sound of a woman singing during the night shift. "
Su Jiu had at least 80 in his mind about this kind of wild supernatural story, and he didn't want to laugh after listening to it: "It is said that, according to who said it."
"Everyone on the boat is talking about it."
"Oh~"
"This morning, it has spread throughout the boat."
After the three apprentices finished practicing, Su Jiu took them back to his room. Coincidentally, Tang Lianyue, who was looking for news, also came back.
"I just went to inquire about it. Many people heard the sound of a woman singing last night. Everyone is saying that it was the courtesan of the opera house who came back for revenge."
"Revenge? "Su Jiu frowned: "Who are you taking revenge on? Murder case, wasn't that quack arrested by the government and beheaded?"
This is also the news Dong Haowen told him.
Why is the development of this story getting more and more wrong..
