Chapter 301 Mental Arithmetic   Upstairs, Mr. Wang followed Xie Cheng and Tang Xi into the private room. Before the Mo family could react, he had already bowed to Mr. Mo and apologized, "It was my fault in the past. All the losses of the Mo family in the past six months will be borne by me. I hope you can forgive my confusion at that time."   His attitude was sincere, and there was no perfunctory intention.   Mo Xu sneered silently. This old man who bullies the weak and fears the strong probably didn't expect that one day he would apologize to the Mo family, right?   "What is the usual income of the Mo family?"   Seeing that everyone else was in a daze, Xie Cheng had to ask Mo Xu.   "It's only three or five taels a day." This is the income during the Chinese New Year.   However, Mr. Wang said that he would compensate, so naturally he couldn't get away with it.   Xie Cheng said in a calm voice, "If we calculate it as ten taels a day, even if it takes half a year, let's see how much we have to pay."   Mo Xu's eyes lit up, and he curled his lips and said, "Shopkeeper, can I borrow an abacus?"   "Hey!" Shopkeeper Fu was about to go out and go downstairs.   But Tang Xi said, "No need, ten taels a day, six months is six months, a total of one thousand eight hundred taels."   "Oh?" Xie Cheng raised his eyebrows.   The others were shocked. This mental arithmetic ability was too strong.   After being shocked, Shopkeeper Fu quickly went downstairs to get an abacus to calculate it himself. After getting the same result, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.   He was a man who had been doing accounting for twenty years, but he was not as good as a little girl. He was really ashamed.   "What's wrong? Are you in a hurry?"   Seeing that he fiddled with the abacus for a while after coming down, and then looked shocked, Chu Tianyou was a little curious.   "It's the girl brought by City Lord Xie." Shopkeeper Fu said, "Mr. Wang wants to pay compensation to the Mo family, ten taels a day, for half a year. The girl calculated the amount of compensation without hesitation." "   Oh?" Chu Tianyou was surprised, "What was the result?"   "I just calculated it several times, and the result is the amount the girl said. With such talent, I am ashamed of myself!"   Chu Tianyou pondered after hearing this, "No wonder City Lord Xie took a fancy to her. She is indeed not an ordinary person."   Shopkeeper Fu said, "Boss, please sit down first. I have to hand over the abacus."   Chu Tianyou raised his eyebrows, "Since the result is out, why do you still need the abacus?"   "Even I don't believe it, Mr. Wang certainly won't believe it." Shopkeeper Fu smiled and said, "In order to prevent Mr. Wang from thinking that the girl is blackmailing him, the abacus still has to be used."   Chu Tianyou chuckled, "If it were me, I would just give the girl whatever she said, so as not to displease the ancestor."   Just as Shopkeeper Fu expected, Mr. Wang just didn't believe it.   It's not that he couldn't afford the compensation, but he didn't believe that a little girl could calculate the result in such a short time. Even if it was true, he felt that it was planned in advance, and she had probably calculated how much he had to pay.   Of course, only Xie Cheng knew that he had temporarily decided the amount of compensation, but he didn't expect that the little girl was so good at mental arithmetic.   He had a good eye!   Shopkeeper Fu took out the abacus and calculated it in front of everyone, and it turned out to be the result.   Mr. Wang said in disbelief: "To show my apology, Mr. Wang is willing to pay more, and I will calculate it at fifteen taels a day."   He didn't believe that the little girl in front of him could calculate it quickly this time.   Unexpectedly, Tang Xi smiled and said, "A total of two thousand seven hundred taels."   Mr. Wang frowned and looked at Shopkeeper Fu, who quickly fiddled with the abacus, and the result was as expected, two thousand seven hundred taels.   (End of this chapter)

  Chapter 302 Arabic Numerals   "How did you calculate it, young lady?" Shopkeeper Fu was very curious.   Everyone looked over.   Tang Xi smiled, "I'll tell you later."   She looked at Mr. Wang and said, "Can you pay me back for this money?"   "Yes, I'll pay it right away!" Mr. Wang was full of admiration, and hurriedly took off his purse, took out a stack of silver bills and presented it respectfully.   Tang Xi took the silver bills and counted them. Seeing that there were quite a few, and there were still three hundred taels more, she curled her lips in satisfaction.   "Uncle."   Tang Xi handed the silver bills to Mo Yang, who took it and handed it to Mo Xu.   Mo Xu hurriedly put the silver bills away properly.   He was very happy to get so much money from Mr. Wang for free.   "Is there anything else, Mr. Wang?" Seeing that people were still there, Tang Xi couldn't help but frowned slightly.   "Oh, Wang will leave now."   He was about to step out of the door, but heard Xie Cheng say in a calm voice: "Remember, stay away from the people of the Mo family in the future, otherwise, I will turn you, Mr. Wang, into a wasteland, understand?"   Mr. Wang was horrified and nodded repeatedly: "Wang remembers!"   After that, he went out and considerately closed the door of the private room.   "Miss, you haven't told me yet, how did you calculate such a large amount in a short time?" Shopkeeper Fu was very curious.   Not to mention him, even Xie Cheng, Mo Yang, Mo Xu and others were very curious.   She raised her eyebrows slightly, "The multiplication table, haven't you memorized it?"   She remembered that it has a history of more than 2,000 years, and they can't not know it.   Shopkeeper Fu said, "We know the multiplication formula, but how can we calculate as fast as you?"   "Just do it this way." Tang Xi blinked, "For example, just now, ten taels a day, if it is calculated based on thirty days a month, that is three hundred taels a month, half a year is six months, six times three hundred taels, that is one thousand eight hundred taels."   Everyone: ...   It sounds really simple, but how did she add such a large amount?   "Three hundred taels a month is fine, the amount is relatively small, but one thousand eight hundred taels, you can get the result without an abacus, how did you do it?" Shopkeeper Fu was confused.   He felt that it was not his question that was wrong, but that the girl did not seem to know what he was asking.   They all knew that three hundred sixty-eight, but how many zeros should be added after eighteen, how did she know?   "Oh, you mean the problem with the amount." Tang Xi nodded suddenly, "Actually, it's very simple. After multiplying two numbers, just add the zeros behind them, right? For example, ten times thirty, one times three equals three. Then add the zeros behind them, ten has a zero, three also has a zero, doesn't that make it three hundred?"   "Oh!" Shopkeeper Fu suddenly realized, "So, it can be calculated this way!"   Tang Xi smiled and said, "I've always calculated it this way."   Mo Xu said, "Then one thousand and ten times three, how do you add the zeros?"   "One thousand and ten times three is one thousand and ten times three, which is equal to thirty and thirty, which is three thousand and thirty."   "How do you calculate one thousand and ten and thirty?"   Her calculation made everyone a little confused.   Tang Xi finally understood. There was no such thing as 1010 or 3030 in ancient times. She smiled and said, "I learned it from my master. He gave me a method called "Arabic numerals". I use that to calculate."   "Arabic numerals?" Xie Cheng was very interested and asked, "What are those numbers?"   (End of this chapter)

  Chapter 303 Is he sick?   Tang Xi smiled at him and said to Shopkeeper Fu, "Please lend me a set of paper and pen."   "Oh, OK, I'll get it right away!"   Shopkeeper Fu said, and walked out quickly. After a while, he brought a set of four treasures of the study.   "Miss, please!"   Now, the table that was supposed to be used for dinner is now used as a study table.   Seeing that everyone was gathered around the table, as if waiting for her to unveil the mystery of "Arabic numerals".   Tang Xi chuckled, walked forward to pick up the paper and pen, wrote 1 to 100 on the paper, and marked the corresponding numbers below.   Everyone looked at these numbers that looked like drawings with novelty.   Tang Xi used Arabic numerals to calculate the example just given for them, and everyone was amazed.   Even the youngest Mo Zihao said with bright eyes: "This is so simple, I can understand it."   "This... This is so easy to use, right?" Shopkeeper Fu looked at Tang Xi happily and said: "Thank you for sharing these Arabic numerals."   "You're welcome!" Tang Xi blinked and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Fu, just add two more dishes later."   "No problem, ten dishes are also OK!" Shopkeeper Fu said: "Then this painting, no, these Arabic numerals, can you lend me yours to copy?"   Tang Xi nodded generously, "Of course."   "Thank you so much!" Shopkeeper Fu thanked Tang Xi repeatedly, and then said: "Please take a seat, everyone, the food will be served soon."   After that, he went out with the   four treasures of the study. "Xiao Xi, is your master a god who has descended to the earth?" Mo Xu said happily.   "I thought so too." Tang Xi pretended to be serious and said: "He knows everything, but fortunately, I am smart and can learn so many things at once."   Xie Cheng raised his eyebrows and looked at her, with a little curiosity in his eyes.   The little girl was becoming more and more mysterious, and even he couldn't see through her.   Downstairs, Chu Tianyou was still waiting for Xie Zuzong to finish his meal so that he could discuss something with him. Unexpectedly, Manager Fu, who had excitedly carried the four treasures of the study upstairs, came down with a smile on his face.   "Is this a pie in the sky?" Chu Tianyou asked with amusement.   "Yes!" Shopkeeper Fu nodded and said, "It's better than pie falling from the sky."   Shopkeeper Fu put the thing on the counter, walked over with the paper, and happily spread it out to show him, "Boss, have you seen this thing?"   "What is this?" Chu Tianyou frowned, "Who drew it? A ghost drawing?"   "This is a good thing!" Shopkeeper Fu pointed to the words below and said, "The symbols above correspond to the numbers of the words below. Look at this, this circle is zero, and this vertical line is one." "   Oh." Chu Tianyou disagreed, "What's the use of this symbol?"   "It's very useful!"   Shopkeeper Fu took paper and pen, calculated the algorithm taught to him by Tang Xi, and then moved the abacus to calculate it again. Chu Tianyou, who was not very interested at first, was shocked when he saw it.   "Who wrote this?"   "Didn't I say so?" Shopkeeper Fu said, "It was the girl that City Lord Xie brought. She said her master taught her how to do it. It's simple, quick, and the results are very accurate."   "Her master taught her?" Chu Tianyou was shocked and admired, "I never thought there would be such a smart person in the world."   "I also smelled a faint scent of Chinese medicine around the girl. Although it's not too strong, you can still smell it if you smell it carefully." Shopkeeper Fu asked with concern, "Is the girl sick?"   (End of this chapter)

  Chapter 304 You are so shameless   "What does that have to do with you?" Chu Tianyou raised his eyebrows.   Shopkeeper Fu said, "Didn't the boss invite the elder of the medical school to treat the master two days ago? I heard that the elder is very skilled in medicine, so why can't he also treat the girl?"   People are kind enough to teach him such a good thing for free, and he is a member of the Chu family, so isn't it the Chu family that benefits?   Asking the boss to help the girl shouldn't be too much, right?   Chu Tianyou sneered, "Do you think City Lord Xie is dead?"   "Maybe she just got sick, and City Lord Xie didn't have time to invite someone from the medical school?" Shopkeeper Fu pleaded with a sad face, "Boss, please be kind and help the little girl."   "Okay, okay." Chu Tianyou glanced at him unhappily, "I'll help, okay?"   Shopkeeper Fu was so happy to hear that, "Thank you, Boss!"   "Chu Yu."   Chu Tianyou shouted to the outside of the door, and a black man quickly flashed in, lowered his eyebrows and said, "Master, please give me your orders!"   "Go to the mansion and ask the third elder of the medical school to come over."   "Yes!" After Chu Yu received the order, he rode out and left.   Here, Xie Cheng and Tang Xi, who had just finished dinner and were about to leave, heard that Chu Tianyou had something to ask them.   Mo Yang said, "Since Master Chu is looking for you, then you go. We'll go back to the inn first."   "Okay!"   The inn was just opposite. Tang Xi and Xie Cheng watched the Mo family enter the inn, and then went back to the second floor with Chu Yu and entered another private room.   "Oh?" Seeing Xie Cheng coming in, the old man in the private room instantly raised his white eyebrows.   "Third Elder?" Xie Cheng also raised his eyebrows.   "Sit down!" Chu Tianyou motioned for the two to sit down.   After Xie Cheng pulled Tang Xi to sit down, he raised his eyebrows and looked at him in confusion, "What do you want to see me for?"   Chu Tianyou glanced at Tang Xi, who looked confused, and smiled, "I've been asked by someone to ask the third elder to come and diagnose this girl's pulse."   "Me?" Tang Xi pointed at herself in astonishment.   "Yes!" Chu Tianyou nodded, "Shopkeeper Fu said that he smelled Chinese medicine on the girl and thought that the girl might be sick, so he came to me just now and asked me to ask the third elder to take a look at the girl."   Tang Xi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Although Shopkeeper Fu might have good intentions, it was really funny to think that she was sick just by smelling the medicine.   Tang Xi smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Shopkeeper Fu and Mr. Chu. I'm fine."   "Him? Treating my Xixi?" Xie Cheng looked disgusted.   "What do you mean, Lord Xie?" The third elder was a little unhappy.   "Nothing." Xie Cheng said calmly, "I just feel that you people in the medical sect are not worthy of treating her."   "Oh?" The third elder raised his eyebrows and said while trying to suppress his anger, "I don't know what the identity of this girl is. Even I, an elder of the medical sect, am not worthy of treating you?"   "Please calm down, senior." Tang Xi didn't understand why Xie Cheng was so angry with the third elder, but still explained in a calm voice, "Acheng didn't mean that."   "Heh--" the third elder sneered, "We in the medical sect, even people from the royal family have to follow the rules if they want to seek medical treatment. If it weren't for Mr. Chu, I would not be here today."   Xie Cheng, this guy who would demolish the bridge after crossing it, actually said that he was not worthy of treating a yellow-haired girl, which really made him angry.   Xie Cheng said disapprovingly, "You can't even cure tuberculosis, and you have the nerve to treat others. You are so shameless."   "Bullshit!" The third elder was so angry that he couldn't help but swear, "What do you think tuberculosis is? Can it be cured just by wanting to?"   Since ancient times, countless people have died of tuberculosis. Even their medical profession is helpless against this disease. From ancient times to now, no miracle doctor has ever been able to cure tuberculosis.

  Chapter 305: Ignorant Child   "Just because you doctors can't cure it doesn't mean others can't."   Xie Cheng sneered, "Third Elder took 100,000 taels of silver from me, but you can only treat the symptoms of my grandmother's illness, not the root cause. If you tell others about it, you won't be ashamed to face others."   "You--" The Third Elder was so angry that his face turned red and he almost choked, "Ignorant child."   The medicines he gave to Old Lady Xie were all precious and famous medicines. He thought that 100,000 taels was too little, and this kid dared to complain that he took too much.   Tang Xi was worried that if Xie Cheng continued to talk, someone would get killed, so he hurriedly pulled his sleeve and signaled him not to say anything more.   Xie Cheng snorted coldly, looked at Chu Tianyou and said, "Why is he here?"   Chu Tianyou coughed lightly and explained, "My father accidentally fell off his horse a while ago, so I asked the third elder to come and help him recover."   "Oh." He nodded, "Is healed?"   "Not yet." Chu Tianyou said, "It takes a hundred days for a broken bone to heal, I'm afraid it will take a long time." "   How much is the consultation fee for you to hire this old guy?"   The third elder:...   Chu Tianyou hesitated and looked at the third elder whose face had turned black, not knowing whether to speak.   "Acheng, let's go back."   Tang Xi was really afraid that they would fight directly in the private room.   Xie Cheng said, "Xixi, Uncle Chu is our elder, it's better to do it today than to wait for a day, let's go and see him tonight."   Chu Tianyou was so moved that he almost cried when he heard this.   Ancestor Xie was actually going to visit his father. If his father knew, the injury might be scared and healed quickly.   "This..." Tang Xi glanced at Chu Tianyou hesitantly.   Chu Tianyou stood up and said, "Let's go."   He glanced at the third elder, but saw that the third elder said with a cold face, "I have something to do today, so I won't go back."   He got angry when he saw Xie Cheng, so he didn't want to go back with him in a carriage.   Chu Tianyou frowned, "But, my father's medicine..."   "What are you afraid of?" Xie Cheng smiled, "There is a miracle doctor here, are you still afraid that your uncle will drink less medicine?"   "Miracle doctor?" Chu Tianyou looked at him in confusion, "You?"   "Her." Xie Cheng pulled Tang Xi in front of him.   Tang Xi: ...   Chu Tianyou: ... It's not that he doesn't believe Xie Cheng, it's just that Tang Xi's age makes him unable to believe it.   The third elder sneered directly, "Master Xie, you don't have to push a little girl out just to piss me off."   Just this yellow-haired girl in her teens, a miracle doctor? He would believe it more if she was a fairy. After all, the little girl is pretty, and it's not an exaggeration to say that she is a fairy.   "Yes, Brother Xie." Chu Tianyou also coughed lightly and said, "How old is this girl? You don't have to joke about this."   Xie Cheng's expression sank slightly, and he snorted coldly, "Who is joking with you?"   He is serious, okay?   "Oh, Brother Xie, can you please let him off the hook because the Third Elder has treated the old lady before?" Chu Tianyou had a headache.   "You don't like it?" Xie Cheng nodded, "That's fine, Xixi, let's go back to the inn."   This Chu Tianyou was not happy with his father's treatment out of kindness. If anything happened to his father, it was Chu Tianyou, the unfilial son, who caused it.   "Eh——"   Chu Tianyou was confused. He said he was going to visit his father? He was leaving now?   The third elder sighed and shook his head, "This City Lord Xie, I used to think he was a steady person, but I didn't expect him to be a person who didn't know the importance of things."   As if remembering something, Chu Tianyou hurriedly said to the third elder, "Third elder, please let Chu Yu take you back first. I have something to do and may not be able to go back until later. Goodbye first."   After saying that, before waiting for the third elder to respond, he grabbed a painting next to him and hurried out the door.   (End of this chapter)

  Chapter 306 Tianxin Grass   "Brother Xie, Brother Xie, wait!"   Chu Tianyou chased after him breathlessly.   "Anything else?" Xie Cheng raised his eyebrows indifferently.   Chu Tianyou took a breath and said, "I have something to ask you. Can we find a place to talk?"   "No time."   After saying that, he pulled Tang Xi and turned to leave.   "Hey, Brother Xie!" Chu Tianyou held him back helplessly.   Xie Cheng slapped his hand away, his eyebrows revealing displeasure, "If you have something to   say, please tell me quickly." "It's hard to tell in the dark, let's find a place, okay?" Chu Tianyou pleaded, "It'll only be a while, it won't take you long."   Tang Xi smiled slightly and said to Xie Cheng, "You go with him, I'll go back to the inn first."   "No, no, no!" Chu Tianyou said, "The girl should stay too."   Perhaps, this girl has also seen that person? Besides, asking Xie Cheng is probably not as reliable as asking this girl.   "I want to go too?" Tang Xi raised her eyebrows slightly.   "Then let's go." Xie Cheng said calmly, "You lead the way."   Chu Tianyou was delighted and hurriedly said, "Please follow me, both of you."   The three of them finally sat in a teahouse.   "I just want you to help me find someone." Chu Tianyou said, "I only know that she is from Hanshui City, but I don't know her name."   "Looking for someone?" Xie Cheng raised his eyebrows, "Since you know that person is from Hanshui City, why don't you go find her yourself?"   "I originally wanted to go, but I finally handed over the business to my brother, but my father fell off his horse again. I had no choice but to go to the medical office for medical treatment. I stayed there for half a month and finally invited the third elder." He sighed and said, "This back and forth has delayed me again."   "I wonder who Mr. Chu wants to find?" Tang Xi was curious.   Upon hearing this, Chu Tianyou hurriedly opened the painting, looked at the two and said, "It's her."   Xie Cheng glanced at her indifferently and said in a low voice, "I don't know her."   Chu Tianyou looked depressed, and was about to sigh, but he heard Tang Xi exclaimed, "Isn't this Boss Lin?"   "Boss Lin?" Chu Tianyou's eyes lit up, "Do you know her, young lady?"   Tang Xi nodded, "Although the painting is a little disappointing, I can still barely recognize her."   "Then how do you know she is the Boss Lin you mentioned?" Chu Tianyou asked nervously.   "The eyebrows and eyes are very similar, and the pearl hairpin on the head." Tang Xi pointed at the pearl hairpin and said, "The flower on this pearl hairpin is in the shape of Tianxin flower. I have seen Tianxin flower in medical books. It is a rare poisonous grass. I have seen Boss Lin wearing it."   "Tianxin grass?" Chu Tianyou was surprised, "Isn't it the treasure of the Poison Sect?"   "Yes." Xie Cheng said in a calm voice, "This Tianxin grass is extremely rare and can only be seen in the Poison Sect. It is one of the poisonous grasses that are indispensable for the people in the Poison Sect to prepare poisons."   Chu Tianyou nodded slightly, "So, the girl is from the Poison Sect?"   Tang Xi said, "If the person you are looking for is Boss Lin, then she is indeed from the Poison Sect."   "Have you ever heard of the Poison Sect's two flowers?" Xie Cheng asked in a calm voice.   "The Poison Sect's two flowers?" Chu Tianyou's eyes widened, "You mean, she is Lin Yuetong, one of the Poison Sect's two flowers?"   "Yes." Xie Cheng nodded.   Chu Tianyou lowered his eyes and muttered, "No wonder she gave me the antidote so quickly, it turned out to be Lin Yuetong."   Xie Cheng raised his eyebrows, "Why did you look for her?"   Chu Tianyou said, "I went out a few months ago and was poisoned in a teahouse. She gave me the antidote."   "Maybe she poisoned you?"   "Impossible!" Chu Tianyou shook his head, "If it was her who poisoned you, why would she give me the antidote?" Let   　's eat and wash clothes first. There are still four chapters left. I will update them in the evening.   　　   　   (End of this chapter)

 Chapter 307 How Many Times Have They Met   Tang Xi smiled and said, "Don't listen to his nonsense. Boss Lin is a very nice person."   "It seems that the girl is very familiar with her?"   "Not bad!" Tang Xi said, "We have met several times."   "How did you know that she is from Hanshui City?" Xie Cheng asked calmly.   Chu Tianyou smiled and said, "I also heard it from the owner of the teahouse."   "So? What do you want to do after finding her?" Tang Xi asked gossipingly.   "I don't have any idea of what to do, I just want to thank her." He took a sip of tea and smiled, "I was a little worried that I couldn't find her, but now I am relieved."   "So, you are going to Hanshui City too?" Tang Xi asked.   "I was just about to talk to you about this." Chu Tianyou said, "When are you leaving?"   Tang Xi: "It should be soon, maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow."   They were a little worried at first, afraid that Mr. Wang would cause trouble for Mo Yang and Mo Xu, but now they are no longer afraid.   Chu Tianyou said, "I'll go with you."   Although he fainted after taking the antidote, the charming face of the woman was still clearly reflected in his mind, and he could not forget it.   Thanking her was just an excuse. The real reason was to want to see the woman again.   After all, the feeling of being haunted was really uncomfortable.   "Walk?"   After seeing Chu Tianyou off at the teahouse, Xie Cheng looked at Tang Xi and asked.   "Okay!"   Tang Xi nodded in agreement, and the two of them walked slowly on the empty street.   She looked up at the crescent moon and asked in a low voice, "Do we have to take the sea route to return to Hanshui City this time?"   "Yes." Xie Cheng nodded, "Go to Xingyue Bay Pier, and go back to Hanshui City from there. The road is flat and closer."   ————   Two days later, Lianhua Town Pier.   Several carriages drove onto a large ship again, but this time the captain was not Captain Cheng, but a captain named Zheng.   Because Mo Yang and Mo Xu did not come, Mo Ziteng became the driver.   Unlike Captain Cheng's cargo ship, Captain Zheng's ship was a passenger ship. When they boarded, it was already full of people.   Interestingly, they also bought all kinds of fruits and cooked food on board, which was very lively.   Mo Zihao leaned on the railing and said, "This ship is really big. This is my first time riding such a big ship."   "Come back!" Mo Ziteng pulled him off the railing and warned him seriously, "Don't you see how high this ship is? What if you accidentally fall off?"   Mo Zihan also put on his brotherly airs and said, "Cousin is right, Zihao, don't be naughty anymore."   "Oh! I know!" Mo Zihao obediently returned to the carriage.   Tang Xi smiled and said to Xia and Old Man Mo, "Grandpa and grandma, you should also come out to watch the sunrise."   It was just dawn at this moment, and the clean clouds in the east were stained with the sunset glow, like a shy and timid beauty, very beautiful.   The two elders of the Mo family were helped off the carriage. Xia smiled and said, "It's been a long time since I took a boat. I remember the last time I took a boat was about 20 or 30 years ago." "   Isn't it?" Old Master Mo smiled and said with emotion, "At that time, when we went to other places to buy goods, we mostly went by boat. I didn't expect that it has been 20 or 30 years. Time really doesn't spare anyone!"   Tang Xi glanced at the place where cooked food was sold, turned back and said to the Mo family, "You guys chat first, I'll go over there for a while."   She turned back to look at Xie Cheng, but saw that he was standing not far away with Chu Tianyou, with his hands behind his back, and no one knew what they were talking about.   (End of this chapter)

 Chapter 308 Will Definitely Be Happy   "Girl, do you want to buy something to eat?" A woman came up to Tang Xi with a basket of eggs in her arms and asked, "They're just cooked and still hot. Do you want some?"   "How much?"   "Two cents for one, three cents for two."   "Give me twelve."   "Okay!"   The woman took out two oil paper bags, one with six eggs in it, and gave them to Tang Xi.   After Tang Xi paid, she took the eggs and looked around.   "Girl, do you want to buy some buns?"   "Girl, do you want a cup of soy milk?"   All of a sudden, those who were buying things waved at her.   Tang Xi bought more than twenty buns and more than a dozen cups of soy milk, and asked the boss to bring them to her.   "Have breakfast."   In order to catch the boat, everyone got up very early and didn't have time to have breakfast.   Tang Xi distributed the food to everyone. When he got to Lin Lao San, Lin Lao San waved his hand and said, "No need, Miss Tang. I have money. If you want to eat, go buy it yourself."   During this journey, he didn't have to pay for food, drink and accommodation. Moreover, it was the best food and accommodation he had ever had in all his years of delivering goods.   "I've bought everyone's portion. If you don't eat, it will be a waste."   Tang Xi said, and put the breakfast on the carriage.   Seeing this, Lin Lao San could only thank him helplessly.   Tang Xi returned to stand next to Kong Yue and smiled, "Is it enough? If not, I'll buy you some more."   Kong Yue looked at the six big meat buns in her hand and nodded, "Enough."   When the boat started, it was sunrise. It was big and round, and the surrounding area was emitting orange light, dyeing half of the sky into a rosy glow.   Mo Linglong took a bite of the bun and smiled, "It's so beautiful to watch the sunrise on the sea!"   Tang Xi looked at her little face covered by the sunset glow and couldn't help but smile, "My cousin is also beautiful."   Mo Linglong's face was a little chubby, her skin was very white, and her eyes were big and round. When she looked at people, there was always a soft light in them. She was the kind of lovely and gentle beauty.   She blushed, glared at Tang Xi and said, "Nonsense, compared to Xiaoxi, I'm far behind."   "When will my cousin get married?" Tang Xi asked with a smile.   She remembered that Mo Linglong was engaged to be married, and she was already fifteen years old, so it was reasonable for her to get married.   "I'm afraid I have to wait until next year." Mo Linglong's ears were slightly flushed.   "Why?" Tang Xi was puzzled.   "Because his mother passed away, he will have to wait until next year to complete three years."   Tang Xi nodded, "I see!"   "Xiao Xi is only thirteen this year, right?" Mo Linglong smiled, "I'm afraid City Lord Xie will have to wait another two or three years."   "Some feelings do have to stand the test of time." Tang Xi looked at Xie Cheng's back and smiled.   "City Lord Xie is a responsible person, Xiao Xi will definitely be happy!"   Kong Yue ate the buns silently and nodded in agreement.   Although she didn't understand love, she also knew that her master really had nothing to say about Miss Tang.   He accompanied her from Hanshui City to Beisang City, from Beisang City to Luobian Town, then to the fishing village in Yanhai Town, and then to Lianhua Town. Now, he was going back to Hanshui City.   If he didn't really like it, how could Xie Cheng, who liked cleanliness, endure a month of not washing without saying a word?   The most important thing was that since the death of the former city lord and his wife, the master didn't like to go by sea, but for Miss Tang, he still chose the sea.   Tang Xi looked at his back, a gentle smile appeared on the corner of her lips, "Maybe."   Xie Cheng treated her really well, and she also hoped that they could hold hands forever.   (End of this chapter)

 Chapter 309 An ominous premonition   Five days later.   Only one day left to reach Xingyue Bay, but the originally clear sky suddenly changed its face.   Dark clouds rolled in the sky, as if they could come down at any time.   To be on the safe side, the boat could only temporarily dock at a nearby fishing village.   Everyone went to the fishing village to find accommodation. Xie Cheng and Chu Tianyou went to find the village chief early, so Tangxi and his group had a place to stay temporarily.   "I'm afraid this rain will be heavy!"   The village chief stood under the eaves, looking up at the sky, his face a little solemn.   The fishermen in the village also came back from the sea early and moored their fishing boats.   But after a while, the sound of huge waves roaring came from the sea.   "If the rain stops tomorrow, don't take the boat, let's go by land." Chu Tianyou suggested.   Xie Cheng also nodded in agreement. There are unexpected changes in the weather, just like the situation before him, it was clear just now, but now it is already covered with dark clouds.   "Hurry, everyone, go help. There's a big ship coming to shore, but the waves are too big!"   Several fishermen ran over and shouted.   Xie Cheng and Chu Tianyou looked at each other, and they quickly dodged out.   Seeing this, Tang Xi hurriedly asked Mo Linglong and Mo Ziteng to take care of everyone, and she also ran to the beach.   When she arrived, she saw the fishermen riding fishing boats to approach the big ship in the wind and waves.   They brought ropes, tied the ropes to the boats, and then returned, signaling the people on the shore to pull the ropes.   The fishermen waiting on the shore pulled the ropes together, trying to help the big ship to shore.   It was too dark, and Tang Xi couldn't see how many people were on the boat, but for some reason, she felt a bad premonition.   After the boat docked, a group of people came down, about thirty or forty people in total, and they followed the fishermen to thank them.   "They smell of blood." Chu Tianyou lowered his voice.   Xie Cheng nodded, he looked up at the big ship, his expression was a little solemn.   He approached Tang Xi and whispered: "Xixi, take advantage of this, hurry back to inform the village chief, let him take everyone to hide somewhere else first, you take grandpa and grandma and others, find a safe place to hide."   Tang Xi's heart jumped, "What about you?"   "I will find a way to go to the big ship to take a look later, don't worry, I will be fine."   He always felt that the ship under the lightning was familiar, like Captain Cheng's ship.   Of course, he didn't dare to tell Tang Xi about this, for fear that she would worry.   "Be obedient, go back quickly."   Tang Xi looked at him and nodded. She took advantage of the group of people not paying attention and quickly ran towards the village.   She quickly returned to the village chief's house and told the village chief about the matter. The village chief's face changed drastically after hearing it.   "To avoid alerting the enemy, you can take a group of people and leave quietly first." Tang Xi suggested.   The village chief nodded, "I know where it is safe."   He said, calling his son and daughter-in-law, and asked them to quietly notify other people in the village.   The fishermen in the village seemed to understand. After receiving the notice, they locked their doors and gathered at the village chief's house.   The village chief said solemnly, "You go first, I'll stay."   "You go, I'll stay." Tang Xi said, "My friends and I will find a way to protect the remaining villagers."   "No!" The village chief frowned, "I'm an old man half buried in the ground, so I'm not afraid. But you're a little girl, you're only in your teens, you can still live for a long time, you can't die because of others."   "I know kung fu, I'm not afraid." Tang Xi said, "You just need to take good care of my relatives for me."   (End of this chapter)

 Chapter 310 Pirates   "Hurry up!" the village chief said, "If you don't leave now, it will be too late!"   Tang Xi gritted his teeth and slapped the village chief on the back of his neck.   "What are you doing?" Everyone was shocked.   Tang Xi handed the fainted village chief to his son, "He just fainted temporarily, you hurry up."   "Xi'er, aren't you leaving?" Xia looked at her nervously.   "Grandma, you go first, I'll be here soon."   She looked at Kong Yue and said, "Kong Yue, they are in your hands."   "Yeah." Kong Yue frowned and said, "Be careful."   She knew the strength of Xie Cheng and Tang Xi, so although she was worried, she didn't stop them.   "Okay!"   "Xi'er!"   Xia didn't want to leave, but Kong Yue forced her to go first.   Tang Xi glanced at the entrance of the village and said nervously, "Let's go!"   Mo Linglong choked up and said, "Xiao Xi, take care of yourself and come back as soon as possible."   "Xi'er, you must come back safely!"   Tang Xi nodded, "I know, Grandpa, I will definitely come back safely, don't worry."   Mo Ziteng looked back at her, nodded heavily, and then took Mo Zihao and Mo Zihan to follow the villagers away.   Not long after they left, it started to rain heavily.   Tang Xi went back into the rain and ran to the beach again.   When she was halfway, she saw a group of people approaching her, so she quickly dodged and hid in the space.   "Brother, that is a passenger ship, and we should be able to make a lot of money tonight."   "Well, the rain is a bit heavy, remember to have someone guard the beach later, don't let the fat sheep on the ship run away."   "Yes!"   Tang Xi flashed out of the space after the footsteps gradually disappeared.   She gritted her teeth, looked at the backs of the group of people with cold eyes, and then continued to return to the beach.   When she saw the fishermen still packing up at the beach, Xie Cheng and Chu Tianyou were nowhere to be seen.   Tang Xi was a little worried. She saw that among the fishermen, there were a few accomplices of the group. They were afraid of being discovered and did not dare to get too close.   A fisherman shouted, "It's really windy and rainy. Everyone, pack up and go back to the village to hide from the rain."   Soon, the fishermen ran over here, while the group of people were still guarding there.   Tang Xi pulled the fisherman closest to her, who was startled and almost screamed.   "Shh!"   Tang Xi pulled him behind a huge rock nearby.   "Little girl, why are you squatting here in such a windy and rainy weather?"   "Uncle, listen to me." Tang Xi glanced at the group of people vigilantly and whispered, "These people are pirates, and there are people tied up on their boat."   "What?" The fisherman exclaimed, and then asked in a trembling voice, "Then, what should we do now?"   "The village chief has taken the others to hide somewhere else. You must not go back to the village. Find a small path to leave, the farther the better."   "What about you?" The fisherman asked in surprise, "Little girl, aren't you leaving?"   Tang Xi lowered his voice and said, "I can't leave for the time being. Go and notify others. Remember, don't shout loudly. Find an excuse to gather everyone together, and then talk quietly."   "Okay!" The fisherman took a breath, stood up and waved to everyone, "I accidentally stepped on empty space when I was going to the bathroom just now. Who of you has a light? Come and help me."   Hearing this, the other fishermen gathered around. After hearing what the fisherman said, they were shocked, but thinking that the group of robbers were behind them, they pretended to be calm and said, "Hurry up and lift him up. Let's go back to the village."   Hearing this, everyone hurriedly lifted the fisherman up and walked towards the village entrance. Tang Xi hid in the dark and watched them anxiously.   When they were halfway there, they put the fisherman down, and then took a small path and quickly fled the village.   (End of this chapter)
