Chapter 1166 Pearl Seems to Have a Really Big Belly
The matter of Pearl's body was like a mystery. After Liu Wei examined it several times, he found nothing wrong except for physical weakness.
But Pearl did look like she was recovering from a serious illness, but the crux of the inexplicable illness could never be found.
The only thing is, Pearl seems to have a really big belly.
"You're not really a female bird, are you?" Liu Wei was dubious.
Although Pearl was extremely weak, in order to defend her dignity as a bird-man, she still managed to jump up and raised her head to the sky with great courage and shouted: "Jie——"
Liu Wei quickly comforted it: "Okay, okay, I'm just kidding, lie down and don't move around."
Pearl fell back on the bed and lazily sank into the pillow.
The news of Pearl's safe return soon spread throughout the passenger ship. Xiao Li rarely left his sister's side and rushed to his mother's cabin. When he saw that Pearl was sick, he was shocked. , hurriedly touched the black bird's back feathers distressedly, and kept asking it if it was uncomfortable.
Gugu also fluttered in. As soon as it came in, it was like a radar reflection. It found the pearl that was blocked by Xiaoli. Then without saying a word, it just put on the bed and lay down in silence. Next to the pearl, he straightened his upper body and just guarded it.
Liu Wei touched Gugu's head. Gugu let it touch her, but she lowered her head and carefully scratched the fine hair on Pearl's forehead with her pointed falcon.
Pearl was not asleep yet. She looked at Xiao Li, then at Gu Gu, and finally leaned slightly towards Gu Gu before slowly closing her eyes.
Feeling weak and weak, coupled with the turbulence of the ship, the little black bird now wants to have a good sleep without being woken up whenever there is a chance.
After Zhenzhu fell asleep, Liu Wei wrote a prescription and went to the glove compartment of the passenger ship with his son to see if there were any suitable medicinal materials in the luggage they took on board.
At the same moment, in the lobby on the second floor of the passenger ship, Yue Shansheng and Rong Ling were sitting across from each other.
Rong Leng did not expect to see Yue Shansheng under such circumstances. In fact, the last time he contacted Yue Shansheng was in Qingzhou. The letter sent back by the other party mentioned the jade pendant and the map and named him. Zhong Ziyu is dead.
Since then, they have had no contact.
It should be that Yue Shansheng has never solved the mystery of the map, but now, in this vast sea, the two of them suddenly meet again.
Vigilance and preparedness circulated in the air. After an unknown amount of time, I heard Rong Leng ask: "Your Excellency, where are you going?"
Being able to rescue Fang Que and Ya Shi in waters deviating from the sea navigation means that Yue Dansheng is going somewhere, a place that runs counter to the orthodox sea navigation.
Rong Leng had some guesses about that place, but he wasn't sure.
Yue Shansheng knew what he was guessing. He picked up the warm tea cup at hand, took a sip, and got straight to the point: "The mystery of the map has not been solved yet."
Rong Leng raised his eyebrows: "Where is the map?"
"Can the Third Prince understand?"
"You can take a look."
"Can you understand after seeing it?"
"One person is short-term, two people are long-term."
Each question and answer is like a test.
After a while, Yue Shansheng did not ask any more questions, but put down the teacup and asked, "Do you want to watch it alone or with her?"
It is self-evident who this she refers to.
Rong Leng stood up without hesitation: "One person."
Yue Shansheng also stood up, glanced at the stern man opposite him with an inexplicable expression, turned around, and walked towards the cabin arranged for him by Rong Leng.
In the cabin, Xiao Xizi was making the bed. When she saw the young master and another noble man coming in, he subconsciously shrank his neck and stood aside obediently.
"You go out first." Yue Shansheng said.
Xiao Xizi nodded obediently, but before leaving, she secretly glanced at the handsome man.
Xiao Xizi closed the cabin door when she left. There was a faint smell of sea in the room, which was not pleasant, but overall, it was tens of millions of times better than the old broken fishing boat.
Yue Shansheng walked to the bed, opened the luggage lying there, and found a small cowhide bag from inside.
Opening the packet again, there was a ball of crumpled dark yellow paper inside.
It's said to be leather paper, but in terms of material, it doesn't look like sheepskin or pigskin, but a bit like...
As the paper was slowly unfolded, and finally spread into a whole piece, it was spread out on the bed. Rong Leng looked at the shape with surprise in his eyes, and looked at Yue Shansheng unconsciously: "Human skin?"
"Yes." Yue Dansheng replied quickly, as if he didn't think there was anything wrong with a map engraved on a person's entire back.
After he answered, he pointed to the opposite side of him like an invitation, motioning for Rong Leng to sit down.
Rong Leng had never been a kind person. The blood on his hands was just more blood than Yue Shansheng's, just a piece of human skin, so it didn't shock him too much.
After a brief silence, he sat on the wooden chair opposite the bed, but he couldn't help but ask: "Whose skin is it?"
This time Yue Shansheng didn't answer immediately. It wasn't until a long time passed that Rong Leng thought he couldn't speak anymore, and then she heard him spit out a name: "Zhong Ziyu."
Rong Leng looked at him.
Yue Shansheng raised his head and smiled at him: "Don't worry, the skin was cut before he died. The skin after death is hard and cannot be cut so thin and neatly." He said, as if he was very satisfied with his work, his fingers were lingering He was rubbing the edges and texture of the piece of human skin.
He couldn't explain how he felt. Rong Leng had no good impression of Zhong Ziyu, but someone had his whole back skin peeled off before he was alive. This made him wonder, is there really such a thing as retribution in the world?
The Guyong Mansion case still casts a shadow in his mind. He still remembers how many human skin lanterns he saw when he searched the cave. He also clearly remembers that the investigation results showed that Zhong Ziyu used this perverted weapon to How many innocent women were killed.
He was a murderer who could not be forgiven by anyone. He did not regret his death. Even in the end, that man was so bold that he even dared to think about Liu Wei...
Rong Leng wished he could cut him into pieces with a thousand knives, but now that the man was dead and skinned in the same way, he couldn't tell whether he was happy or happy.
I just feel that it is still too light...
As Liu Wei said, if he should not be freed by death, he should be allowed to live. Life would be worse than death and lingering...
"What?" Seeing Rong Leng's silence, Yue Shansheng called out.
Rong Leng came back to his senses and shook his head at him: "Nothing."
Yue Shansheng didn't care. He pointed to the center of the map and said, "This is where the goal is."
Rong Leng looked towards the specially marked shape, but he couldn't see any road around it that could lead to that place.
Yue Shansheng said: "According to the map, if you want to go there, you must pass through the large sea area in front. This sea is called the Devil's Sea. I have asked the boatmen in the two rivers, but no one can reach it."
