The prince of heaven only wants salted fish
Chapter 55: The Lazy and Good-for-Nothing Wu Alliance Leader (3)
Ji Cheng's answer was not loud, but Bai Xiaosheng's footsteps trembled when he heard it, and the gold ingot that he had not yet put into his arms fell on the table.
He smiled stiffly: "Sir, you are joking, hahahahaha..."
Ji Cheng smiled back, and Xiaolian's hand was on the dagger at his waist again.
Bai Xiaosheng's eyes wandered on Ji Cheng's face for a moment, and then his pupils began to slowly dilate: "It seems to be true..."
The next second he turned over and rushed out of the restaurant: "I suddenly remembered that I have something to deal with at home, so I will leave today and never see you again!!!!"
Just as the waiter came to deliver food to Ji Cheng's table, he saw Bai Xiaosheng's fleeing back and was stunned for a moment: "This... what is going on?"
"I don't know," Ji Cheng said, "He ran so fast, maybe his house caught fire?"
Waiter: "?"
After dinner, Ji Cheng did not go upstairs immediately, but went out and walked around the street.
Jiang'an City is prosperous and beautiful, and the people are very open-minded. As the night of the courtesan approaches, the streets are also very lively, with vendors competing to shout, and there are all kinds of performances and juggling.
The painted boat where the courtesan night will be held tomorrow has stopped at the bank of the Huaiyang River. It is decorated with silk flowers and looks extremely gorgeous. People are shoulder to shoulder on the street. Many people are holding lanterns or food of different styles in their hands, talking and laughing with each other, and some people are wearing masks with different patterns on their faces. At first glance, those who don't know might think it is a grand festival.
Although the liveliness of the courtesan night is indeed no less than that of ordinary festivals in Jiang'an.
Ji Cheng shuttled through the crowd and felt very fresh about this kind of liveliness full of human fireworks - he grew up in the heaven, and he was exposed to gods and immortals, all of whom were busy people full of dignity (even a nonsensical guy like Siming was very tall and majestic in front of outsiders). When they go out, they are flying on clouds and mist, and they are shoulder to shoulder? That would be a car accident.
Ji Cheng had come across many treasures, not to mention the heavens. Even the treasures he had come across in the two small worlds before were far better than the trinkets sold by the vendors on this street now. But perhaps it was because he had never seen such a variety that these little things seemed a little more lovely.
Xiao Lian found him at some point and whispered, "Young Master, I have found the information about the storyteller."
Ji Cheng was watching a game of pitching pots. The one playing now seemed to be a rich lady. She was not very accurate, but every time she hit a target, the maids and servants around her would burst into amazing cheers.
He: "Hmm?"
Xiao Lian couldn't help but said: "Young Master, don't look at it. The stall owner wrote on the side - 'Martial artists and dogs are prohibited from participating', we have no chance."
Ji Cheng: "...Oh."
"Are you going to tell me the information or not?"
Xiao Lian: "Oh, I just went to our villa's base in Jiang'an City and found the information of that Bai Xiaosheng."
"The real name of that Bai Xiaosheng is Jiao Liren, who is also a martial artist. He is the younger brother of Jiao Ning'er, the master of Baihua Valley," she said, "The disciples of Baihua Valley are lurking all over the world, and they have the best intelligence among the four major sects. Jiao Liren should know about you through the intelligence line of Baihua Valley."
There are four major sects in the martial arts world today: Baihua Valley, Qingyun Sect, Liefeng Sect and Nantian Temple. Each of them is a well-known name. Even though the disciples of Baihua Valley are special and not as strong as the other three major sects in terms of martial arts, no one dares to underestimate them because of their silent infiltration skills.
Ji Cheng said, "Xiao Lian, what do you think?"
Xiao Lian said, "This Miss Jiao has a nice name."
Ji Cheng: "What else?"
Xiao Lian thought for a while: "This Miss Jiao dared to say bad things about you. I am willing to change my name to Jiao Zuoren and be his father."
Ji Cheng: "...Have you found out where he is?"
Xiao Lian said, "Tomorrow is the night of the courtesan. I found out that someone has booked a boat for viewing under the name of Bai Xiaosheng. It should be him who is going to see it."
Ji Cheng nodded: "I know."
He said, "You can book another boat now, a smaller and more broken one will do, and hire two more boatmen. We will act tomorrow... Oh, right."
Ji Cheng smiled and said, "This Bai Xiaosheng, he should not be able to swim, right?"
Xiao Lian vowed, "Even if he can swim, I can push his head into the river!"
——
In the blink of an eye, it was the evening of the second day.
The night of the courtesan is about to begin. The lanterns on the huge pleasure boat on the river bank have been lit, and other pleasure boats on the shore have also begun to board people and sail into the lake.
Money makes the world go round. With the help of money, Xiaolian has hired a new boat with superb efficiency. After she confirmed from a distance that the person on the pleasure boat was the "know-it-all" Jiao Liren, she directly gestured to the boatman on the new boat.
The boatman received the order and immediately steered the pleasure boat, which was almost at retirement age, towards the other party's boat!
One side was prepared, the other side was unprepared. Bai Xiaosheng was originally leisurely leaning on the bow to enjoy the scenery, but when he turned around, he saw a broken boat rushing towards him. He immediately widened his eyes in horror: "Fuck!!!"
With a bang, the two pleasure boats collided. Jicheng's "old and broken" boat was destroyed on the spot due to years of disrepair, and Bai Xiaosheng's boat was also hit with a big hole. It seemed that it was only a matter of time before the boat sank.
But the most unlucky person was Bai Xiaosheng himself - he was originally standing on the bow of the ship, but he couldn't stand firm under the huge impact. Therefore, although the ship did not sink, he himself fell into the water first. !
"Pfft... cough cough, I... cough cough... don't know how to drink water!"
The boatman on the boat on his side looked confused and immediately jumped into the water to save people: "Master!"
Jicheng's painting boat was not far away. When Xiaolian saw this scene, she immediately geared up and said, "Young Master, I will push this man's head into the water right now!"
She was about to fly over immediately, but Jicheng stretched out his hand to stop her, and then directed the boatman on his side to sail towards the collision site.
The previous collision was so violent and sudden that not only Bai Xiaosheng, the person involved, failed to react, but even the nearby boaters were stunned. Their first reaction was not to save people, but to hide away from the scene of the accident.
So the boat in Jicheng was actually the only one going in that direction in a short period of time.
Bai Xiaosheng didn't know how to swim. After he fell, he started to flutter hard. The boatman on his side jumped in to save him, but he didn't dare to do it because of the opponent's powerful fists and kicks. He was afraid that he would also be kicked a few times. At that time, the two of them sank down together.
Jicheng's boat sailed nearby, and the servant brought the long oar prepared early in the morning and handed it over to him personally: "Come on, grab the oar and come up."
Bai Xiaosheng had already choked several times, and when he was dizzy, he didn't really hear what others said clearly. He just instinctively grabbed the paddle stretched out in front of him and hugged it tightly!
By the time he came to his senses completely, he had been dragged to the deck of Jicheng Huafang.
A hand with sharp bones handed him a towel: "Come on, wipe away the water quickly."
The other party's voice was gentle, and it sounded like the voice of salvation from a god - especially when the other party actually rescued him from the water just now!
Bai Xiaosheng felt a burst of gratitude in his heart. He was thinking wildly that if this mother was a woman, he would fall in love with her at first sight on the spot. He kept saying: "This young master acted so righteously and was really a great person. I'm here with Bai Xiaosheng." ……Well?"
Then he saw clearly who was in front of him.
Bai Xiaosheng almost bit off his tongue: "Ju Ju Ji Ji Ji Yicheng??"

——Would it be better for him to drown directly in the water?
Jicheng smiled and nodded at him, while explaining in a gentle voice: "Young Master Jiao really overthinks this. This alliance leader is not a good person."
Bai Xiaosheng thought that Jicheng was going to continue the sarcasm he did yesterday, but the other party said in a gentle tone: "I had someone knock you down just now."
"So fishing you out again is really not a righteous act."
Jicheng smiled: "You're welcome."
Bai Xiaosheng: "………………"
He silently turned his head and looked behind him, just in time to see Xiaolian pulling the two coachmen who collided with the boat onto the boat, and also gave them a large sum of silver.
His actions were so obvious and arrogant that he could only put up a banner saying "I am the murderer".
At this point, Bai Xiaosheng actually made a mistake: "...You, are you despicable?"
Jicheng: "Come here, take Mr. Jiao down to the river to take a bath."
Bai Xiaosheng was shocked, Xiaolian rolled up her sleeves and ran over: "Okay!"
A quarter of an hour later.
After taking a bath in the river, Bai Xiaosheng was carried and slipped into the cabin. It was obviously summer, and he was soaked to the skin. He was still shivering while holding two big towels.
Jicheng, who was sitting opposite him, was dressed in bright clothes and looked extremely handsome and respectable even as he sat casually.
It is simply a perfect portrayal of a drowned rat and a phoenix.
Bai Xiaosheng's hair was dripping, and after shaking his teeth for a long time, he finally managed to say: "You... are going too far."
Jicheng said with a smile on his face: "To each other."
He stared at Bai Xiaosheng: "Master Jiao doesn't think that I really don't care about what you said, right?"
——What did he say?
Bai Xiaosheng reacted quickly after being confused for a moment: a tiger father and a dog son, lazy, lewd and lustful...
He stammered: "This, we, we are just talking nonsense and nonsense..."
"After all, I am just a storyteller," he said with an awkward smile. "As a storyteller, I have to use something gimmicky to attract the audience..."
Jicheng: "What about Bai Xiaosheng?"
Bai Xiaosheng immediately said: "Those are all names I made up, just to bluff people!"
Jicheng: "Seriously?"
Bai Xiaosheng nodded solemnly: "When..."
Jicheng handed over a thousand-tael silver note.
Bai Xiaosheng: "Of course my name as Bai Xiaosheng is true. I am an innocent and innocent person. Whatever you want to know, I guarantee your satisfaction!!"
