In the increasingly tight lake blockade, it is already very difficult to go out from the inner circle. Bai Yi's several identity changes are actually to open a way for himself among various forces.
In the end, she turned into a black shadow, got into the slightly cold lake water, and sneaked for a moment. At the outermost edge of the chaotic lake, she stopped under the shadow of a boat with colorful lights hanging high. The night and thick fog were reflected in the colorful lights. Under the illumination, it forms eccentric colors and becomes the best cover.
After waiting for a while, Bai Yi took off his clothes in the water, cleaned them up, and then dived in silently.
This painting boat is much more spacious and refined than the one where I was with Se Yun just now. It is seven feet long and about two feet wide. It is built to imitate the structure of a building ship and is divided into two floors. The upper floor is an open pavilion and pillars, a place for recreation, and the lower floor is where everyone on the ship lives.
The naked man in white clothes looked like a water ghost floating out of the water. He sneaked into a reading cabin on the lower floor without disturbing anyone.
The interior and exterior of the cabin were separated by a blue gauze cabinet, which was also decorated with screens, piano tables, incense burners and other items. It was very elegant. In the cabin, a set of clothes had been placed on the bed, but she only picked up a gauze dress and wrapped it around her at will. With her delicate body in hand, she turned around and touched the piano on one side, and the clear sound was carried far away.
Not long after, a voice came from outside: "Madam, the fragrant soup is ready."
Bai Yi responded casually, threw aside the pretentious book on the bed, and stretched again. The task for tonight was already over.
Not to mention the income this time, it goes without saying that all the information released by Baiyi is half-truth and half-false, and there are many misleading things. Truly lossless information can only be obtained by combining intelligence from several special channels and analyzing it in a special way.
As for who the person is, she knows some, but she doesn’t know more. She is always in a state of semi-understanding. This is the state that a tooth person and an information dealer should have. On the one hand, she plays with others, On the one hand, you also let others play with you, swinging back and forth between achievements and crises.
Ever since she got into this line of work out of temporary necessity ten years ago, she has been particularly fond of it and has been out of control. Now she lives in Huandai Lake, and she has the identity of "Lengyan Lady". She hangs out among actors and actresses, playing in the world, and she is really happy.
At this moment, after everything is done, soaking comfortably in the fragrant soup and relaxing body and mind is one of her biggest hobbies. To this end, a craftsman was specially asked to create a Yunyang wood bathtub, which can maintain the water temperature and adjust it as desired, and has the effect of nourishing the skin.
In the warm mist of water smoke, the hustle and bustle on the lake seemed to have gone away. Bai Yi almost wanted to fall asleep, but just when she closed her eyes, her wrist suddenly sank.
Baiyi's body did not move, his breathing and heartbeat remained at the same level as before. He just opened his eyes a little, and the cold light that came out was no longer as leisurely and lazy as before.
A delicately woven bracelet hangs from her wrist. It is slightly wide and has a shape suitable for both men and women. It is usually tied around her upper arm. From the day she put it on, she never took it off again.
This object was actually a protective charm made by her partner before she became the head of the place. She used a lock of long hair, combined it with various silk materials, and then blessed it with a unique spell. Normally, she would remain quiet, but once there was murderous intent directed at her, no matter whether it was strong or weak, visible or hidden, the cursed weapon would react, automatically slip off her upper arm, and mark the approximate location of the opponent.
With this cursed weapon, Bai Yi has already escaped two murders. But this is the first time that I have encountered such a situation in my long-standing place of residence.
The bracelet is colorful. Only Bai Yi, who is familiar with the technique, can see that blood is flowing on the blue silk that was originally the main vein of weaving. Using the wrist as a reference, the direction of blood flow on the bracelet is where the enemy is.
"The lower left part...that is the maid's residence."
Bai Yi immediately knew that the opponent might be using the identity of a maid on the ship as a cover to change his appearance. According to the reaction of the cursed weapon, the opponent was approaching, unhurriedly, as if he was strolling in the courtyard. No one on the whole ship noticed it.
What really chilled her heart was that the other party kept approaching, and the murderous intention had locked onto her, and could be activated at any time, but apart from the cursed weapon, she herself didn't feel anything.
She almost let out her will to see the other person's true face, but she held it back.
The ship's range is small and the active sensing cannot be concealed from others. She can only tell the other party that she is already on guard. Who knows what that guy will do? It's better to wait for the enemy to come and then strike with thunder...
A knock on the door suddenly sounded outside the cabin.
Bai Yi was so shocked that his water almost broke, and he was about to take action, but then he realized that something else happened. The stewardess on the ship was talking outside:
"Madam, there are guests boarding the ship outside, please see me."
Bai Yi gritted her teeth secretly, annoyed that her grandma had interrupted her preparation, but when she thought about it again, she suddenly had a bright idea and found another way out.
She adjusted her breath to get herself into the state of mind that a performer should have. She stirred up the water with her hands and made a splashing sound. Then she responded lazily: "In the middle of the night, all the people who board the ship are evil people. Where are the guests?" ?"
This is a typical Jijia language. To outsiders, it is to welcome or refuse, and to tease people's hearts. It can best arouse the conquest mentality of people with different surnames; to one's own people, it is a hint.
The stewardess outside is responsible for all affairs on the ship. Although I know nothing about her real actions, there must have been a tacit understanding over the years, and I immediately understood that this business can be done.
But before she could respond, someone from behind said in a deep voice: "Is Madam Leng Yan here?"
"Oh, you are really reckless. How can you break into my wife's residence?"
The stewardess was startled, and turned around to stop her, but the man ignored her and said to the cabin: "Is this Lady Lengyan inside? My master has invited her."
Is this just a servant?
Being separated by a door, Bai Yi also knew that the person outside had a good cultivation level, but when he encountered this incident, he was still secretly upset.
It is most annoying to have such an arrogant guest on the ship, shouting, drinking, and showing off his authority. On a normal day, she might have been kicked out immediately, but now, she has to borrow some help and has to deal with it. Ichiban.
Of course, she will never speak easily, otherwise she will become the laughing stock of the entire Huandai Lake tomorrow, and she will have no chance of winning the next "Jade Ruler" celebrity gathering.
Of course, she will never admit that ruining Ge Qiuniang's reputation on Tianliang Mountain Island has something to do with her defeat at the hands of others two years ago...
Having such a mentality is proof that she has fully integrated into the identity of "Lengyan Lady".
When she was disguising herself as a man, she was very affectionate and bold; but when she was transformed into the "Lengyan Lady", she was cold and even a little gloomy. This was not a disguise, but it was natural. Even she herself was surprised and could learn from it. Find a stronger strength.
The servant outside said in a very calm tone: "My master went north to study. When he saw such a scene on the Ring Lake, he stopped to watch. I also felt that it was cold in the night and I was alone, so I lost a lot of fun. I saw my wife painting a boat. I am alone in the periphery, and I want to get acquainted, so I sent you here to invite my wife to the balcony to watch the beautiful scenery together, which is also a fate."
This person's conversation is also quite elegant, but his words about "splendid scenery", combined with the current situation on the lake, inevitably show his ruthless nature.
If a servant is like this, the master can imagine it. He was probably the leader of some sect in the southern country, he was used to bossing around.
Ms. Leng Yan is a trickster after all. Because of her fame and beauty, she can show off, but she is still not qualified to fight against a truly powerful person. There are thousands of martial arts families on the Ring Lake, and there are definitely a few who die every year due to "accidents". Although they have formed a society and gathered some strength, only one out of ten can truly find justice.
After a moment of silence, she responded coldly: "In that case, please wait for a moment. Wait for me to take a bath and change clothes, and then meet your master again."
"So good."
The "servant" outside replied and waited outside the door. Madam Leng Yan's face was as dark as water, while Bai Yi breathed a sigh of relief. With this servant with good cultivation standing at the door, the killer would definitely not be able to get through for a while.
Looking at the bracelet on his wrist, the man had indeed discovered what had happened here and quietly turned back.
But how could she let this person lurk again?
White clothes sneered silently, not caring about the "servants" outside or whether there were other "masters" who were anxiously waiting. He followed his own way, took a leisurely bath, and called his personal maid, "Have a good time" After taking care of myself, it took a full two-quarters of an hour before I was properly dressed and walked out of the room slowly.
Of course, this is already taking care of each other. Otherwise, even an hour is too little.
She finally met the "servant" outside, but she was somewhat unexpected. He wore a crown and scarf, his face was like a full moon, and he had a long beard. Although he was clothed in cloth and wearing sandals, he was quite a Taoist priest. Feng, there is no problem in changing into a robe and pretending to be a Taoist priest.
And this person's cultivation level has almost reached the middle level of Buxu, and the golden light in his eyes is like lightning. It is obvious that Yang Shen has cultivated to an extremely high level.
Now that she had been "invited" out, she no longer deliberately tried to make excuses. She glanced at the face of this person and said softly: "What do you call this person?"
The other party bowed: "I'm afraid that the lady will ask questions, and this old slave will live in vain."
There was nothing much to talk about. At the moment, the steward, who had been standing by, led the group to the observation deck on the upper floor of the boat.
Bai Yi searched in his mind for a strong man from a sect in the south who could match Xu Sheng and his "master", but he didn't have an answer for a while. Thinking about the current situation, there are still many unanswered questions.
The killer suddenly came. Did she offend some powerful person?
The first thing Bai Yi thought of was color aggregate. The attitude of the female cultivator was extremely abnormal, and it was very different from the charming and harmonious relationship in the past. Maybe she had some backer, or she was forced by someone to negotiate.
In addition, there may be a problem in which channel, and someone followed the clues and found this place.
There may be many surnames, but Bai Yi doesn't waste too much thought on them. The real threat is extremely urgent. The most important thing for her is to make good use of the cards in her hand.
Hold the maid's arm and climb up the wooden ladder to the observation deck. The strong wind on the lake blew up, bringing with it a noisy and tragic sound.
This is the scenic spot that Xusheng's "Master" refers to.
