Rebirth of the Genius Charlatan

Chapter 145: Out to sea, small island

Views:

The cruise ship is sailing on the sea, and the sea breeze is slightly salty. On the deck of the ship, a girl in a white dress stood on the bow of the ship, looking at the blue sea, gently closing her eyes with a comfortable expression. The sea breeze lifts the hem of her skirt. Viewed from behind, she has a quiet temperament and a somewhat unearthly appearance. Just looking at her face, her appearance is actually unremarkable. It can be said that she is the type that you can't find in a crowd.

This girl is naturally Xia Shao, who came to take the Feng Shui Master assessment in disguise.

She rarely went to sea. Even when she attended high school in Qingshi for two years, the school was close to the seaside. She only stayed at the seaside and never had the opportunity or time to go to sea by boat. This time it was a novel experience for her.

Having been in Hong Kong for two months, Xia Shao had left most of the affairs of the mainland company to a few generals. She would only close the door and take out her laptop in the room at night after Li Qingyu rested, and listen to Sun Changde's speech remotely. Reports on corporate affairs. In the past few years, the company has become very skilled in its operations, both in auctions and antique shops. Xia Shao felt that the year she was away was the time to test the company's operational capabilities. She controlled the general direction and left the specific implementation to the various departments of the company, allowing each department to perform its duties.

In one year's time, if Huaxia Group can still operate well and prosper during this period of time when she is away from home, it means that the group's foundation in Qing Province has been stabilized. When she gets to college, it's time to make big moves again.

Aida Real Estate on Emily's side had several conflicts with the Jinda Group acquired by Gong Muyun in Qing Province over the competition for landmarks, but Xinna Real Estate always gave in in the end, intentionally or unintentionally, which made the provincial business community People in the circle can’t understand it.

Xia Shao just smiled after learning about this incident. She told Emily that she should not worry about it for the time being, and the real estate company's operations in the province would continue. And she plans to let Ada Real Estate enter Hong Kong for development after solving Yu Jiuzhi.

The inheritance of Feng Shui is flourishing here, and her Feng Shui skills will be put to good use in the real estate industry. When real estate companies develop here, it is easier to open up the market and accumulate capital than in the mainland. When the time comes, she will go back to compete openly with Gong Muyun, acquire Xina Real Estate in an honest and fair manner, and then use Qing Province as the foundation to enter the national real estate industry.

The blueprint for the operation and development of the group has always been in Xia Shao's mind, but she is now entangled with many things, and has put all her things behind after dealing with Yu Jiuzhi. During this time, she must concentrate on dealing with her enemies!

The upper class circles in Qing Province were shocked and surprised by Xia Shao's sudden transfer of schools. Some people encountered investment and fortune-related matters and couldn't find anyone to contact Xia Shao, so they went to the headquarters of Huaxia Group and directly approached Sun Changde. I hope I can ask Ming Xia Shao what school she went to or where she lives in Hong Kong, and come to Hong Kong to ask her some questions in person.

In this regard, Xia Shao only told Sun Changde to tell these people and wait for a few months. She is currently in the Li family as a bodyguard. The school has already completed the transfer procedures, but she did not report when school started. Instead, she temporarily asked for leave from the school.

Xia Shao is facing her senior year of high school this year and has a heavy workload, so she doesn't want to take leave at this time. But she couldn't leave, so she could only squeeze in time before going to bed at night. After listening to Sun Changde's report on company affairs, she took out her book to read and review. Except for the two nights when she went to find Mo Fei and Maxim, these two For months, she went to bed early in the morning every night and got up early in the morning. Fortunately, relying on Xuanmen's qi-guiding technique to recuperate his vitality, he was able to maintain his energy during the day.

Recently, the calamity in Li Qingyu's appearance has become weaker and weaker. Once he is completely gone, she can report to school with peace of mind. As for the grudge with Yu Jiuzhi, it has nothing to do with whether she is at Li's house or at school.

However, Xia Shao estimated that the fastest would have to wait until she returned from the Feng Shui master examination on the fishing village island.

Xia Shao opened her eyes, sorted out everything, then looked at the sea scenery, turned around and prepared to go to the cabin. It takes three hours to go to the fishing village and the island. If you have nothing to do during this time, why not go back and read a book. When she came out, she brought two textbooks in her small suitcase, which she would use to pass the time on the road and at night on the island.

Now that I can't go to school, I can only squeeze in time to review my homework.

However, just when Xia Shao was about to turn around, she heard a slightly childish voice behind her, "Junior sister, so you are here!"

Xia Shao was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and turned around. I saw a little boy wearing a T-shirt and casual shorts walking behind me. He is said to be a little boy, but he is actually not too young, he is twelve years old.

The boy's skin is very white, his T-shirt is also white, with a short-tailed chinchilla drawn on it, his casual shorts are very baggy, he wears a pair of splint slippers on his feet, and a white Disney Cat Monster watch on his wrist. No matter how he looks, he is walking. Cute boy.

But his personality is definitely not cute. He has a pair of angular eyes, looking up to the sky, and his hair stands on end. Xia Shao had known him all morning and knew that this boy was definitely not a good-tempered boy, and he was a brat who deserved a beating.

The boy's name is Wen Ye. He is the youngest disciple of the Zhang family in Xuanmen. He is of the righteous generation and studied under Zhang Zhongxian's only female disciple Hai Ruo.

Despite his young age, this boy is very talented in Yin magic. He has a strong sense of soul matters and is good at catching Yin people, exorcising spirits, and using talismans. In folk terms, it means "calling souls" and "catching ghosts", a real little magic stick...

If he hadn't been so talented, it would have been impossible for the Zhang family to let him go to sea with him at such a young age and go to the island this time.

Among Zhang Zhongxian's three disciples, only Hai Ruo is a female, so Xia Shao took the name of Hai Ruo's new disciple in the United States five years ago to participate in the Feng Shui master assessment.

Since it was in the name of Hai Ruo's disciple, Xia Shao's identity Zhang Zhongxian couldn't hide it from his disciples. When he accepted his disciples, he had very strict requirements on their character, and he could trust the character of the three disciples. Therefore, his three disciples already knew Xia Shao's identity, but Zhang Zhongxian's disciples did not.

Only Hai Ruo's three disciples knew that Xia Shao was not her disciple, because Xia Shao had never practiced with them. In this regard, Hairuo claimed that Xia Shao's master was taken in by a disciple of Zhang Zhongxian who had passed away a few years ago. This time, he wanted to avenge his master. In order not to attract the attention of the Yu family, he lied that he was her disciple.

Zhang Zhong first had seven disciples, all of whom were developing overseas. Later, each of them had another disciple, so it was common for fellow disciples to never meet each other. Xia Shao successfully passed the test.

But he had passed the test, but Wen Ye gave Xia Shao a headache.

He started teaching at the age of five and insisted that he had been teaching for a longer time than Xia Shao, so he had to be called Junior Sister Xia Shao. In one morning, he had already declared among the disciples of the Zhang family that from today on he is no longer the youngest disciple, he has a junior sister! Moreover, he began to fully exercise his responsibilities as a senior brother, looking at Xia Shao wherever he went, with a gesture of guidance and instruction, which made her dumbfounded.

Just like this, she had only been on the deck for a while when this guy came to her.

"Don't run around! There is no good person on this ship except for our family. Be careful of their dirty tricks behind their backs." Wen Ye crossed his arms and frowned, then turned and left, "Follow me! Go back to the cabin. "

Xia Shao cursed the brat in her heart, then followed the boy to the cabin with a smile.

When we just walked to the door, before Wen Ye opened the door, the cabin door opened from the inside, and Yu Wei walked out with two young men. When Wen Ye saw it, he pretended not to see it, looked up at the sky, and walked directly into the cabin. His attitude made both men frown. One of the men, who looked like a young man, turned around and said, "Stop! Are you disciples of Elder Zhang's lineage? Why don't you say hello when you see us?"

These two men are the grandsons of Qu Zhicheng and Wang Huai, the other two elders of Xuanmen. The one who speaks is called Wang Luochuan. He has dyed brown hair, a white shirt and slacks. The corners of his eyes are slightly raised, and he looks at people with a frivolous look. He is considered handsome. The other one is called Qu Feng. He has strong facial features and a slightly ordinary appearance, but his facial features are very powerful, and he looks stronger at first glance.

The two of them stared at Wen Ye at a glance. As for Xia Shao, they didn't even look at him. It was obvious that Wen Ye was more famous among Xuanmen disciples.

What Xia Shao wanted was this kind of effect of not being noticed, so she didn't say a word and just followed Wen Ye. Wen Ye put his hands in his wide trouser pockets, looked at the person with his eyes raised, and nodded, "Hello, uncle, let's go, uncle."

"What do you mean!" Wang Luochuan frowned. Yu Wei, who was walking at the front, also turned back with a cold face and stared at Wen Ye with majestic eyes.

Wen Ye flicked his nails to the deck, and the white cat monster watch on his wrist shone dazzlingly in the sun, "We have finished using the deck, please continue to use it. I said you are good to go, right?"

Wang Luochuan was speechless for a moment, but he still felt that what this kid said was not a good thing! But I couldn't find fault with him, so I didn't know why.

Wen Ye was too lazy to pay attention to him. After greeting him, he took Xia Shao and walked into the cabin. As soon as the two of them moved, Wang Luochuan saw Xia Shao and his face suddenly sank, "What about you? There are no rules! You, Elder Zhang, are doing this Are all the people in this world so disrespectful of seniority?"

Wen Ye paused, frowned, and turned around. The honest Totoro on the white T-shirt looked askance, "Uncle Master asked you to tell them to leave, didn't you hear?"

Xia Shao lowered her eyes and suppressed a smile, nodding, "Well done, uncle."

Wang Luochuan's face turned dark, while Wen Ye nodded seriously, put his hands back in his pockets, stepped on his big plywood slippers, and swaggered Xia Shao into the cabin.

The door slammed shut, and Wang Luochuan was heard scolding, "You bastard! It will be easy for them when we get to the island!"

Xia Shaoze glanced out and sneered silently. When he looked at the boy strutting in front of him, he couldn't help but chuckle. This boy is quite irritating!

There were more than a hundred people taking the Feng Shui master assessment this time, and Xuanmen disciples accounted for the vast majority. There were only about a dozen Feng Shui masters from other sects, and the rest were all Xuanmen people. There are only twelve people in the Zhang family lineage, which shows how many disciples came from the four lines of Yu, Leng, Qu and Wang.

The yacht is very big, with about a hundred people divided into several cabins, and the rooms are completely sufficient. Xia Shao was in a cabin with three disciples of Hai Ruo, a woman in her late forties. Women who practice Xuanmen Qi-nurturing Kung Fu generally look younger. Hairuo looks like a mature woman in her thirties, with a slim figure, gentle brows and gentle words. She is a slow-tempered woman. And a gentle woman.

I heard from Mr. Zhang Zhongxian that Hairuo was married in the United States. Although the couple had a good relationship after the marriage, they never had children. She took in two female disciples, both of whom are now in their twenties. Wen Ye is the youngest. Hai Ruo has always treated these three disciples as her children.

Hai Ruo's other two female disciples were actually twin sisters named Wu Shu and Wu Ke. I heard that Hai Ruo was adopted from an orphanage and entered the school at a young age. The two sisters look the same, with round faces. The elder sister is more silent, while the younger sister is shy. Both of them talk less, but they are relatively friendly to others.

As soon as Wen Ye came back, he complained, "It's all her fault! She went on the deck for nothing and made me look for it, and I met some scum."

Upon hearing this, Hai Ruo looked at Wen Ye and Xia Shao worriedly, and the two sisters Wu Shu and Wu Ke also looked up from the magazine.

"Then you didn't have any conflict, right?" Hai Ruo asked.

"Conflict? Huh! I won't play conflict with them. I won't kill them until we get to the island!" The boy put his hands in his trouser pockets. He was obviously still a twelve-year-old little carrot. He hadn't yet changed his voice, and he always talked like a baby. He said in a deep voice, "Thankfully I went to the deck. If she had been there alone, she would have been a doormat."

Wen Ye sat down, leaned back, and looked up at Xia Shao, "Hey! How can you say that it's my senior brother who protected you and didn't even say thank you?"

"Xiao Ye! Don't be ridiculous." Hai Ruo scolded, raised his eyes and smiled apologetically at Xia Shao.

Xia Shao looked at the boy nonchalantly, smiled politely and nodded, "Thank you, I will keep your heroic deeds in mind."

The younger sister of the twins, Wu Ke, pursed her lips and smiled, but Wen Ye stopped, "What are you talking about? I'm your senior brother! I've been telling you all morning, I call you senior brother!"

But this time, Xia Shao found it difficult to speak. She only has one senior brother, who has special meaning to her. Even if she calls this guy uncle, she can still call him, but senior brother can't.

She looked at the little boy with a smile and said with a slow smile: "I call you senior brother today, but I'm afraid you won't come back even if you call me uncle ten times another day."

Wu Shu and Wu Ke were stunned and looked at Xia Shao. But when he saw her smiling face, she seemed to be joking, and Wen Ye rolled his eyes, obviously thinking that Xia Shao was joking, "Uncle Master? You are thinking too much. After we deal with some people, our Xuanmen will A new elder will be elected, and it will be my master or master uncle who will take over. There is me next to the master and master uncle! You? Just call me senior brother!"

"Xiaoye! I told you not to fool around." Hai Ruo scolded him again, then looked at Xia Shao with a gentle smile, apologetically, "I'm really sorry, this child was spoiled by me. He has a bad temper. A little, but he’s actually a good kid. Don’t take it personally.”

After Hai Ruo finished speaking, she took a glass of juice from the nearby bar and handed it to Wen Ye and Xia Shao. Xia Shao thanked her and nodded kindly. She naturally saw that this boy had a good nature, and she would treat him well when her identity was revealed in the future.

Wen Ye held a large glass of juice and chewed the tube depressedly, "They say I'm the youngest, but finally I got a job that started later than me, and you still don't call me senior brother... Humph! Just wait until you get to the island, that place It’s haunted, someone is harassing you, I won’t save you!”

Xia Shao smiled and didn't answer, pretending not to hear the resentment of some children, just drinking juice and looking out the window. Although her appearance is unremarkable, her demeanor is leisurely and has an indescribable magnanimity.

Wu Ke was sitting across from him, too shy to talk to him, but he only peeked out of curiosity from time to time. Wu Shu, on the other hand, glanced at Xia Shao calmly and without trace, and frowned slightly - the girl's face looked very ordinary, not like the face of someone working in this industry. But she does have vitality all over her body, but her cultivation level seems to be very average... Maybe she has practiced at the stage of refining and refining energy, and her talent seems to be very ordinary.

The Zhang family is very strict in recruiting disciples and never places importance on quantity. With this girl's appearance and talent, how did she get accepted into the disciple's sect

strangeness.

Wu Shu couldn't figure it out. Of course she didn't know that Xia Shao deliberately restrained her energy in order not to attract attention, and only stayed on the island, waiting for opportunities.

At this time, there was less than an hour left before arriving at the island.

And just as the cruise ship was sailing smoothly on the sea, a speedboat stopped at a hidden seaport on the leeward side of the destination fishing village island.

Five men came down from the top, and the three behind them all had firearms in their hands. When they stepped ashore, they glanced sharply around, very alert.

"Master, this island is haunted. Last time we put goods here for trading, more than ten members of the Jenosai family died inexplicably. Do you think they dare to come this time?" A middle-aged man in his forties The man's brows showed a mature and ruthless look, and he looked in awe at the young man in front of him who was surveying the terrain.

"I dare to come, do you think they dare to come?" The man did not look back, wearing a sky blue shirt and casual pants, with a straight back. He was neatly dressed, but his tone sounded arrogant and arrogant.

"You dare to come, and for the sake of face, they must dare to come," the middle-aged man said.

"Ha." The leading man smiled and then turned around.

But when he turned around, I believe anyone in the world who saw his back would shout that they were looking away!

Screw clean grooming!

The man's sky-blue shirt only had two buttons on, and there was a frightening dragon-shaped tattoo on the side of his neck, snaking all the way from his neck and down his chest.

The big black dragon pierces people's eyes, wild and domineering!

The man's eyebrows are also dark, but he gives off the impression of heavy iron. His facial features and aura all speak of domineering power.

His eyes were bright and his teeth were white when he smiled, but it gave people a chilling feeling. He asked: "You said, if I dare to come, does Gong Muyun dare to come?"

The middle-aged man leaned forward unconsciously, his eyes full of awe, "If you dare to come, Master Gong must also dare to come. This time we have a large quantity of goods, so he should come."

The leader of the man smiled again, "Then tell me, if the Jenosai family dies again on the island this time, will it be mine or Gong Muyun's?"

"..." The middle-aged man didn't answer, and bowed his head deeply for a while, "What a good plan for the master!"

The man smiled arrogantly, turned around and strode towards the fog-shrouded deserted island, "Let's go! Go to the island!"
