When the book-traveling little detective meets the two-faced prince

"How come you can't even walk steadily? Could it be that you are scared and your legs are weak?"

Lin Lezhi helped Xiao Yihuo to steady himself. It was rare to see Xiao Yihuo make a mistake, so Lin Lezhi couldn't help but take the opportunity to make a joke.

However, he did not hear the expected response, and Xiao Yihuo had no intention of standing up on his own. Half of his body weight was leaning on himself, and his breathing in his ears was a little rapid and heavy.

You're not going to scam me, are you?

Unable to figure out what Xiao Yihuo was up to, and too lazy to guess, Lin Lezhi raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "You're so big and heavy, if you're okay, I'll let you go."

Before letting go, Lin Lezhi kindly straightened Xiao Yihuo and then slowly moved his hand away.

As a result, Xiao Yihuo had not stood up for half a second before his body fell straight in the other direction.

"I go."

Lin Lezhi was shocked and quickly rushed to the other side to support Xiao Yihuo's fallen body.

Xiao Yihuo didn't seem to be joking, otherwise he would be so arrogant, mysophobic, cunning, and sometimes picky, he would never set a trap for himself.

Seeing Xiao Yihuo with a strange expression, Lin Lezhi asked worriedly, "Xiao Xu, are you... okay? I'll call Qingchuan for you."

Just as Lin Lezhi was about to look up and call for help, Xiao Yihuo reached out and grabbed Lin Lezhi's arm. The veins on the back of his hand bulged, and his grip was so strong that it seemed as if he wanted to strangle him to death. It hurt.

If this force was applied to my neck, it would probably break.

Lin Lezhi suddenly thought of something for no reason.

But now saving lives is of course the most important thing. If you want to pinch me, just do it. It’s not like I haven’t been pinched before.

Lin Lezhi helped Xiao Yihuo to stand up. When he wanted to take a closer look at his condition, Xiao Yihuo let go of Lin Lezhi's arm, stood up straight, and a triumphant smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"I didn't expect you to be so gullible. That's quite interesting." Xiao Yihuo said with a humorous smile.

"you……!"

"Master——!"

Liu Yunhe's shouting was heard not far away.

Liu Yunhe and Qingchuan, who were walking in front, found that the two had not caught up, so Liu Yunhe ran back. However, seeing the subtle atmosphere of stubbornness between the two, he looked at them with a slightly suspicious look and asked tentatively: "Did...something happen between you two?"

Lin Lezhi smiled and said, "It's okay, but you have to keep an eye on your son and don't let him fall again."

This is what Lin Lezhi said, but what he actually thought in his heart was that the next time he encountered such a thing, he would make sure Xiao Yihuo fell into oblivion.

I feel inexplicably refreshed when I think of this scene.

"Ah?" Liu Yunhe hurriedly checked Xiao Yihuo's physical condition and said with a worried look on his face: "Sir, are you okay?"

"It's okay, let's go there too."

On the way to the main ship, Lin Lezhi thought several times about the scene of Xiao Yihuo falling flat on his face, and he suddenly felt a lot better.

No one says that just because you can’t beat someone, you can’t beat them in your mind.

I originally wanted to help move the coffin and see what was under the coffin, but with my identity, it was not easy to go over and check, and it might easily alert the enemy.

Let’s find another opportunity.

Out of the corner of my eye I caught a glimpse of a smiling figure; it was Qiao Ying.

In this atmosphere where everyone is worried and depressed, only Qiao Ying is immersed in her own world. When she sees a beautiful lantern, she will happily pick it up to admire it, and even pull Jiang Lian'an beside her to watch it with her.

By looking at Qiao Ying, Lin Lezhi's gaze fell on the lanterns floating on the shore. Not only on the shore, but also around the boat, there were a large number of lanterns floating.

Looking around, none of the lanterns along the way or on the shore were lit.

There are also many lanterns that have lost the paper that wrapped them, leaving only the skeleton of the lanterns, and some of them can't even maintain their shape.

These broken lanterns should be the ones that no one recycled before.

but……

Lin Lezhi's eyes darkened.

If there really were few people visiting the island in the past eleven years, would the number of old lanterns be less?

After the soldiers moved all the things on the deck, fishermen came forward to help and opened the deck of the boat. Inside were the gold, silver and jewelry found in Wu Sanshan's boat, as well as the food and water that had been collected on the island in the past few days, and pots and pans.

There are still many unused compartments below deck.

"Excuse me, brothers. Do you also use the bottom hold when you fish on weekdays?" Lin Lezhi walked up to the two fishermen who were on the same boat with him and asked.

The fisherman shook his head and said, "It is not used during normal fishing, because the fish and the fishing nets are wet, and the bottom of the boat cannot see the sun, so the wood on the bottom of the boat will rot easily after a long time."

"Yes. Even if I put it there, I would only put some unnecessary utensils there. I would rarely open it unless I needed to."

"So that's how it is. Thank you both brothers for letting me know."

While Lin Lezhi was asking questions, Xiao Yihuo and his group came over and all the things on the boat had been unloaded.

After finishing the arrangement, Hong Mingxu shouted loudly: "The general's order is that except for the soldiers in the camp, anyone who has doubts about this matter can wait here."

Hong Mingxu pointed to the rice and said, "There will be enough food and water for everyone among the rice and food we brought. If this case cannot be resolved within three days, or if there are other accidents, everyone can return home on their own. The general will not force you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the people praised the general's benevolence and righteousness, and most of them chose to stay on the shore.

After determining the number of people who would stay, the soldiers moved out the corresponding food, water and pots and pans and placed them in places where they would not be soaked by sea water. The rest of the rice and grain were carried along.

Seeing that the coffin was about to be lifted up again, Lin Lezhi took the initiative to move forward and said with a smile: "Soldiers, I will help you carry it too."

Lin Lezhi climbed up to the bottom of the coffin, and just as his hand reached underneath, a strong force pulled Lin Lezhi out, and then took Lin Lezhi's place.

Before Lin Lezhi could react, he found himself with a heavy sword in his hand, with a purple sword border wrapped around the hilt.

"If you really want to help, just help me hold Chen Wei."

What is Chen Wei? Is this the name of this sword?

No?

Why did he suddenly appear? Wasn’t he following Xiao Yihuo?

Lin Lezhi shook his head slightly. Sometimes he really felt that these two people, master and servant, one big and one small, were just here to increase the difficulty of the plot.

Every time he appears, he really chooses the right time.

Lin Lezhi turned the sword around and weighed it in his hand. Unexpectedly, it felt quite comfortable in his hand.

While turning the sword, Lin Lezhi stuffed the things he had just taken out from under the coffin into his clothes, a smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.

Fortunately, I was quick just now.

Lin Lezhi looked up at the direction the team was moving and the things around him.

Qingyan is located at the original site of Huaifeng Village. The lake island is very large and you can see high mountains when you look up. Huaifeng Village is built at the foot of the mountain and to get there you have to walk through a dense forest.

The location of the signal smoke can be seen far away outside the island, but once you go deep into the mountains and forests, the forest blocks out the sun, the sunlight can hardly penetrate, and it is dark all around. It is not easy to find a wisp of smoke, and you can only look for it in the general direction.

Although there were not many people, most of them were holding heavy objects, so the entire team could only move forward slowly.

The island has been uninhabited for many years, trees, flowers and plants grow wildly, and there are no roads to speak of.

The path we took was the same path that had been taken by people who had come to the lake island before.

Determine the direction to the village by looking at the remains in the grass.

Many miscellaneous discarded items are not visible, but are hidden by the tangled, knee-high weeds. You have to push aside the weeds and look carefully to find them.
