Chapter 7
Chapter 7: When in Rome, do as the Romans do
Sichen Palace can be said to be right beside the Xingcha Sea. After walking a few steps, the three of them walked into the Tianbosi.
As the caravan was attacked, the Tianbosi naturally did not dare to neglect it.
Therefore, Su Zhe and his party met the helmsman Yukong without notifying him.
“Lord Yukong, the people are here.”
Yukong, who was handling affairs, stopped what he was doing and walked in front of the two with a polite smile.
“I’m sorry, you two came from afar, and let those colleagues who died in the Xinghai return to their roots. Luofu and Tianbosi should have expressed their gratitude, but…”
Su Zhe raised his hand to interrupt Yukong’s polite words: “Lord Yukong, no need for polite words. If you want to know something, just say it directly.”
Yukong’s expression did not change, and he went straight to the point: “Okay. I want to know the process of your discovery of the wreckage and the specific location.”
“Let me tell you.” Huang Quan walked in front of Yukong and told him the process and location of the discovery of the caravan Xingcha wreckage.
However, in the process of narrating, Huang Quan deliberately concealed and blurred the part where the two encountered Bu Liren and the antimatter army’s attack.
Upon hearing this, Yukong immediately checked and compared the Minghuo Chamber of Commerce’s caravan’s sailing records and route maps.
“This… are you sure the wreckage was found at this location?”
Yukong’s voice trembled unconsciously.
Su Zhe also said when he saw this: “We also brought back the storage jade on the star ship. For more specific information, Lord Yukong can check it out by himself.”
“Sorry, I lost my temper.”
Yukong took a deep breath: “To express my gratitude, the Tianbo Division will bear all the expenses of the two during their stay in Luofu. If there are other needs, as long as they are not excessive, you can ask the Tianbo Division.”
“Thank you for your care.”
“If possible, please help repair our starship. Of course, it would be better if we can directly replace it with a new one.”
Yukong squeezed out a smile on his anxious and worried face: “No problem, although the immortal boat is mainly a star ship, the Chamber of Commerce also has starships for trading.”
“Then I’ll trouble Yukong to worry about it. If there is nothing important, we will leave first.”
After that, Su Zhe and Huang Quan left the Tianbo Division.
After watching the two leave the Tianbo Division, Yukong became nervous.
“The route and travel time are all right… Tingyun, please don’t get into trouble!”
In a hurry, Yukong quickly dialed Tingyun’s number.
“Beep…”
“Beep…”
“Beep…”
“Beep…”
The busy tone made Yukong’s heart fall to the bottom.
All the information matched, and even the contact was cut off. Could it be that Tingyun really…
Yukong stretched out his hands to support the table in front of him, supporting his body that was beginning to feel a little exhausted.
…
Changletian
Su Zhe, who had just bought a portion of Xianzhou’s specialty snack, red oil-chopped beef offal, was sitting on the railing on the street eating it. He used his elbow to nudge Huangquan, who was holding a skewer of Qiongshi bird and tasting it carefully.
“How does it taste?”
“… To be honest, because of the decline of my sense of taste, I can no longer taste anything.”
“I can only taste a faint sweetness.”
“But when you were eating, didn’t you look like you were enjoying it? You smiled unconsciously.”
“Did you?”Huang Quan tilted his head, his face still looked a little dull and calm.
“Yes.” Su Zhe ate the last of the offal in one bite, then pointed at Huang Quan with the skewer in his hand: “If you have nothing to do, smile more, you will be much cuter that way.”
Huang Quan looked down at the Qiongshi bird skewers in her hand that she had finished eating at some point, and was stunned.
“Cute…?”
She looked at Su Zhe, who was staring at the crowd and looked relaxed, and chose to give up continuing this topic.
He then expressed his confusion: “Before entering the Tianbo Division, why did you hint to me not to tell the helmsman about the Buliren and Antimatter Corps?”
Su Zhe stretched out a finger and shook it: “Some important news needs to be told to the right person at the right time to get the most benefit.”
“Also, did you find out? The helmsman is very concerned about the safety of the caravan members. There must be someone very important to her in the caravan.”
“As the saying goes, care leads to confusion. Just now was not a good time to make things clear.”
Huang Quan nodded thoughtfully: “You are much more cautious than you look.”
“It’s always right to be cautious when you are in a foreign land.”
“Besides, two passing tourists accidentally discovered the wreckage of the merchant ship and brought it back to Luofu.”
“It’s better to let people relax their vigilance than to wipe out the Buliren fleet and the Antimatter Corps team and then bring the wreckage of the merchant ship back to Luofu.”
As he said, Su Zhe jumped down from the railing and looked around at the prosperous Changletian in front of him.
“Where are we going to go next? Luofu is quite big. By the way, it is said that when in Rome, do as the Romans do. Why not change into clothes in the style of Xianzhou?”
Huang Quan shook his head: “Forget it, but if you have this idea, I can accompany you to have a look.”
Not long after, the cheap clothes that Su Zhe bought from Pinduoduo disappeared.
He wore a white cloud-patterned robe with a black brocade lining underneath.
He wore a black broad hat on his head, and even Zhao Daolie was taken out by him and a suitable scabbard was customized at the Gongzao Division.
Huang Quan looked at Su Zhe, who seemed to have changed into a different person, and could not help but understand what it meant to say that clothes make the man.
“You now look like those lone swordsmen in the Xianzhou stories.”
“Is he handsome?” Su Zhe looked at Huang Quan who was commenting seriously.
“…”
“Yeah.”
Huang Quan finally nodded.
“That’s good.” Su Zhe grinned.
Although he could summon the Zhao Dao at any time, he didn’t have to carry it with him.
But… As expected, with this outfit, he had to carry some equipment.
The two of them spent two days in Luofu.
Of course, they basically wandered around Changletian and Jinren Lane.
Of course, since the inn they stayed in was in the center of Xingcha Sea, they also went shopping here.
At other times, Su Zhe asked Huang Quan for advice on swordsmanship and knife skills.
Two days also allowed Huang Quan to refresh his understanding of Su Zhe’s talent.
