The man and woman who got off the boat were undoubtedly Tang Ling and Bian An.
As Tang Ling expected, after all the time and space scars on the other side were restored, she successfully woke up. At this time, the Big Fish had passed the twin islands controlled by the Poseidon family and entered the inland sea.
It only takes two days to reach the port of Dark Harbor.
The closer to the Port of Darkness, the more excited and joyful Tang Ling felt. After all, he had left a lot of memories and concerns here, and it felt like his second home besides Safe Zone No. 17.
Especially when the Big Fish sailed past the two islands, various memories also appeared in Tang Ling's mind. Here he killed Omer of Poseidon in anger. The voyage that was originally thought to be smooth began to become full of crises. , twists and turns.
The memories seemed to be in front of me, but I didn't expect that more than two years, almost three years, had passed by the time I returned.
Including the time he spent in the Time and Space Fragments, Tang Ling was only 18 or nearly 19 years old, but he suddenly felt a sense of vicissitudes of life.
Compared to Tang Ling, Bian'an seemed much calmer. After waking up, he didn't even bother to go out of the cabin. He just liked to stay quietly by Tang Ling's side.
Tang Ling felt that Bi'an seemed to have something on his mind, but whenever Tang Ling had such suspicions, Bi'an behaved normally, talking and laughing, being gentle and quiet, and reading in front of the window, just like before.
Maybe he was overthinking it, but Tang Ling couldn't figure out what was on the other side's mind? After all, in that decisive battle with Tang Long, he was unconscious for a long time and missed a lot of things.
When the vague outline of the Dark Harbor appeared on the skyline, Tang Ling finally had a sense of reality that he had stepped out of the fragments of time and space and returned to reality.
He almost couldn't wait to disembark with Bian An. Of course, due to the state of the world, Tang Ling simply disguised himself, covering his appearance.
No one on the Big Fish dared to ask any questions.
Regarding the people on the Big Fish, Tang Ling simply said to the captain, 'I will stay in the Dark Port for a long time, and I have never been to your ship.'
These calm words said in a calm tone really don't sound like a threat to ordinary people. But those who can get along with the captain are smart. Thinking about Tang Ling's words for a moment made him break into a cold sweat.
This mysterious boy didn't want to expose anything, and him staying in the Port of Darkness for a long time was an obvious threat.
If the Big Fish still wants to make a living in the Dark Harbor, it's best to keep it secret. Otherwise, if he heard any news leaked, the first one to suffer would be the Big Fish.
The captain's understanding was correct, and Tang Ling didn't need to say much about the rest. The captain would naturally impose strict restrictions, and would even go to great lengths to let everyone keep this secret.
In addition, Tang Ling still remembered Ahu's kindness, and he also slightly admired this young man who still had an innocent heart and a bottom line.
So Tang Ling gave Ah Hu two pieces of Level 4 marine ferocious beast meat. This act was very secretive. He also reminded Ah Hu, "You'd better pretend that I didn't give you this. Wait for the right time to digest it quietly." . Otherwise, you will not only harm yourself, but also harm others.'
After experiencing the incident with the Purple Moon Warriors on the ship, Ahu seemed to have grown a lot. He was grateful for Tang Ling's generosity, and was even more moved by Tang Ling's reminder.
After all, for a big shot, giving you something you think is precious is not worth mentioning. Your preciousness and his preciousness are absolutely not equated.
But the careful reminder is really thoughtful.
Although Ah Hu is still immature, he still understands this point.
The crew members on the ship did not dare to look at the departing figures of the mysterious boy and the insignificant girl. They were afraid.
Only Ahu was hiding aside and watching quietly. Compared with that touching reminder, he cared more about Tang Ling's other words.
"If we are destined to meet again, I hope you will never be trampled under someone's feet without being able to resist."
"I, I will definitely." The figure finally disappeared into the bustling Dark Port, while Ahu quietly clenched his fists and secretly made a vow in his heart.

Today is another very ordinary, but still painful day. Why the suffering? That’s how Boss Huang feels anyway.
As usual, Boss Huang still liked to sit on the lounge chair on the second floor, but the wine and snacks at the table were not moved much. This is a sign that he is in a bad mood, and it has been like this for more than two years.
If you're not in the mood to eat or drink, why prepare? Dingdong curled his lips and looked at Boss Huang sitting on the recliner and lazily looking at the street. After all, he was still slightly sad.
Of course she knows why the boss is like this? It's not because Little Tangtang is gone. Although the boss said that life must have a sense of ritual, so he behaved as usual, but he was still so lazy and so shameless.
Those wines and snacks are also a sense of ritual that he wants to adhere to, but they are still different after all.
But Dingdong didn’t think so, and neither did Dingling.
They firmly believe that little Tangtang will not be dead, and Sister Bian will definitely be alive, but Boss Huang and others in the world don't believe it.
I'm too lazy to pay attention to that stinky boss, and he looks sad every day, which is really ruining people's mood. Thinking about it, Dingdong twisted her little body and went to the kitchen. She wanted to prepare some snacks for herself. She and her sister would get hungry easily.
As for Ding Ling, who is still cleaning the room at this time, especially the room where little Tangtang lived, he must keep it as it is. He will definitely be very happy when he comes back, and praise himself by the way.
Ding Ling did it very carefully. Unlike Ding Dong who occasionally paid attention to the stinky boss, Ding Ling ignored Boss Huang.
Oh, and that stinky octopus, Monty, is ignored. There is no octopus that doesn't eat obediently. From time to time, it will lie on a stone and be sad, and even shed tears.
Looking at it makes me want to hit it.
But forget it, think about how pitiful the stinky octopus was. He went to sea with Xiao Tangtang and was taken care of by Xiao Tangtang, and he also got a lot of benefits. Anyway, Ding Ling felt that the stinky octopus had obviously become more powerful. . But in the end, it came back safely under the care of Xiao Tangtang, but Xiao Tangtang was in crisis, and he must feel very useless when he smoked the octopus.
Thinking about Ding Ling, she felt slightly sad, stopped wiping her hands, and climbed to the window sill of Tang Ling's room.
When she is sad, she bask in the sun for a while. This is Ding Ling's way of coping with her sadness.
Although everyone thought that the sunshine in the Ziyue era was too hot, Dingling didn't feel it. She curled up in a small ball at the edge of the window, and the sunshine easily filled her whole body. It felt very comfortable.
Yes, more than two years have passed. Normally, children should grow taller quickly, but she and Dingdong didn't know why, but they never grew taller. They were still small, almost unchanged from more than two years ago.
Ding Ling's attention was easily diverted and she soon thought of other things.
Under Tang Ling's window was a quiet back alley, usually empty of people, but at this time, footsteps could be heard.
Ding Ling lazily opened his eyes, glanced at them, and then closed them again.
It's Aunt Qing and Old Man Gudao who are here again. If they don't run their own restaurants and pharmacies on a nice day, what are they doing here at the Chichi Building
However, the stinky boss is not diligent either. He didn’t do much business in the past. In the past two years, he has stopped doing business and just rests on his laurels. If this continues, she and Dingdong can hardly afford snacks.
In addition, the stinky boss used to be like a shameless stray dog all day long, always pestering other people's Aunt Qing. Now that he is uncomfortable and out of mood, Aunt Qing always comes to see him, feeling that she cares about him.
But the stinky boss didn't appreciate it.
Ding Ling was gossiping about some random things, but Ding Dong stuck his little head outside the door and looked around. After making sure that Ding Ling was the only one in the room, he happily slipped in.
"Sister, sister. Did you see what I made delicious?"
Ding Ling immediately rolled down from the window edge and asked impatiently, "What's delicious?"
The two little glutinous rice dumplings gathered together secretly and began to eat lazily. As for what Aunt Qing, the old boss, wanted to do with Boss Huang? They weren't interested at all.
**
The sound of footsteps sounded in the Ai Chi Building. Boss Huang shook his chair slightly, his eyes still staring at the flow of people coming and going in front of the Ai Chi Building. It seemed that he was not even interested in turning around.
"Huang Dao, you are living a happy life." Gu Dao took the lead to go upstairs, pulled up a chair, and sat next to Boss Huang. While talking, he poured the wine that Boss Huang placed on the small table. After a cup, he also grabbed one of the snacks on the table and was about to stuff it into his mouth as he spoke.
"For wine, it's three Dream Coins a cup. Fried blue squid tentacles are five Dream Coins each." Boss Huang still didn't bother to turn his head and just said lazily.
"Stingy." Gu Dao put down the snack in his hand with angrily. The blue-striped squid is only a level three ocean beast. Can a squid tentacle worth less than one tael be worth five dream coins
Although he said this, Gu Dao didn't dare to continue eating. After all, Huang Dao, a stingy guy, might really ask him for money.
"Zhuang Dao, let's go to the top floor to talk." Qing Gu was too lazy to listen to the nonsense of these two unreliable guys. She came here this time to have something important to say, so it was better to play it safe.
Boss Huang finally turned his head at this time, and when he looked at Qinggu, his eyes became softer.
"What else is there to say? I can't understand this world anymore." He looked a little uninterested, and then added: "It's safe here, there's no need to go to the top floor to talk."
The top floor of the Chichi Building seemed quite mysterious even though Tang Ling had never been there even though he had lived here for so long.
"This time is a really important thing. This time we want to do it." Qing Gu was slightly angry and her tone became more urgent.
She was angry with Boss Huang, but Tang Ling had fallen. This was an unchangeable fact. But all the difficulties are still there, and they will not change just because of Tang Ling's death.
These things always have to be completed by someone, and Boss Huang is considered the mainstay among the remaining forces.
Before Qing Gu finished her words, she was interrupted by Boss Huang expressionlessly: "The top floor has been abandoned. I told you that it is safe here. In the Port of Darkness, no one dares to blatantly eavesdrop on what the Ai Chi Lou is saying. ?”
"Then I must go to the attic!" Qinggu's anger surged, and she became insistent: "Zhuangdao, you have no right to declare the attic to be invalid. It does not belong to you alone."
"But it's built in my Ai Chi Building. If you don't want to talk about it here, just leave." Boss Huang stood up impatiently and waved his hand.
Qing Gu sneered: "Huang Dao, you are really cowardly."
Boss Huang's expression changed. What was he about to say? Gudao, who had secretly eaten two squid legs, had no choice but to stand up and stop him.
Whether it's Huang Dao or Qing Gu, they are both people with quite strong personalities. Today's world has become very delicate, and everything can explode at any time. These two people should stop fighting among themselves.
"Qinggu, business matters." Gudao first pulled Qinggu. Compared with today's Huangdao, Qinggu was obviously much more rational.
After being reminded by Gu Dao, she finally managed to hold back her anger and fell silent.
"Huang Dao, we are preparing to leave the Port of Darkness." After Qing Gu fell silent, Gu Dao simply stated the key point this time.
This sentence was undoubtedly a bombshell, and Boss Huang was stunned.
Leaving the Dark Harbor? After being stunned for a few seconds, he subconsciously turned his head, looked at the Ai Chi Building for a few times, and then sat down again, feeling as if he had been emptied out.
At this time, neither Qing Gu nor Gu Dao spoke. Since they have spoken out, it is better to give Huang Dao some time to digest.
The atmosphere became silent. After a full minute, Huang Dao suddenly sneered: "Haha, you finally want to take action? And then the action is to give up the Port of Darkness?"
Gudao and Qinggu didn't speak. It was obviously not the time to explain yet.
"I'm not leaving." Boss Huang put away his sneer and looked very determined. It seemed that in order to strengthen this determination, he shook his head again: "I told you, I won't leave. Whatever, I, Zodiac, am free, I Stay wherever you love!”
Gu Dao sighed: "But if you stay here, you won't be able to wait for what you think you can wait for."
Gu Dao was referring to Tang Ling. Others didn't know it, but he and Qing Gu knew it. Boss Huang insists on believing that Tang Ling is not dead. If Tang Ling comes back, there is a high probability that he will return to the Dark Port first. Now that the world is full of crises, Boss Huang believes that he must take on the responsibility of picking up Tang Ling and protecting him.
Boss Huang also said this to some mysterious senior officials. Unfortunately, no one really cared. No matter how unfortunate it was, we had to accept the fact. They all thought that Boss Huang was venting his emotions.
"Who said I was waiting? My family business is in the Port of Darkness, should I give up?" It has been more than two years now, and Boss Huang also knows that many people think his idea is a joke, so he simply refuses to admit it. .
In fact, even he himself was gradually despairing.
"In that case, since you don't want to leave, why don't you go to the top floor and listen to why you want to leave? You can refute it on the spot." Qinggu spoke at this time. She knew that she couldn't convince Boss Huang, so she simply got angry. Give him a handful.
"Haha, that's good! Then go to the top floor." Knowing that Qinggu was irritating him, Boss Huang couldn't help but sneered.
Then go to the top floor! He wanted to hear what these guys who had done nothing in the face of change wanted to do
