Chapter 1127
"From here to the capital, it's only a few dozen miles." He He Lingchuan patted his back. "Go back. After you ask about the situation, come to the capital to find me." A Hao agreed, walked forward more than ten steps, and couldn't help but look back, but there was no one behind him.
Are these two outsiders human or ghost? But they are so generous.
A Hao looked at the silver ingot in his hand, rolled his eyes a few times, and strode toward the alley where he was beaten earlier.
His companion was still unconscious in the alley, covered by a basket.
Just as He He Lingchuan said, this person wouldn't wake up before tomorrow morning.
A Hao carefully checked, the basket had no signs of being moved, clearly no one found the tall one unconscious here.
This place was only thirty or fifty steps away from the sea, A Hao leaned to the alley entrance and looked, it was quiet, and no one passed by at all.
Good opportunity. He returned to the alley, pulled out a short knife from his boot, and stabbed the tall one in the heart! The tall one didn't move at all and lost his life in a daze.
A Hao was afraid he wouldn't die, stabbed him in the heart two more times, cursing while stabbing: "Take you grandson to feed the fish, this is the end of offending your Master Hao!"
Usually couldn't beat you, can't kill you today? He wiped the blood from the knife on the tall one's clothes, and casually pulled out a broken table leg and stabbed it into the wound, stirring it hard a few times. Then he dragged the body for dozens of steps and threw it into the sea.
The domestic sewage of nearby residents all poured into this waterway, which was smelly and unpleasant, and few people came near it usually.
To prevent the body from floating, he also tied a large stone.
With a splash, the companion disappeared.
"You just sink here, watch your old man rise in the future." A Hao clapped his hands, feeling refreshed.
In the past half year, the tall one hadn't teased him less, and had extorted his money. Today, he finally vented his anger for himself.
As soon as the sky was bright, A Hao went to ask for two pancake stalls, which not only had chives but also fragrant preserved vegetable fat meat, so fat that it sizzled with oil in one bite.
The stall owner gave enough ingredients but didn't dare to collect money, A Hao very generously gave him three copper coins: "Take it! No need to change."
After eating and drinking, he went behind the abandoned house to pick up bricks and smash his own forehead.
The first time he didn't dare to use force, it hurt but didn't hurt, the second time he smashed until blood flowed, and he could cover his head and return to the gang.
Seeing the gang leader, he cried and complained, saying that it was hard to get two fat sheep today, get thirty taels of silver, but the tall one saw money and opened his eyes, smashed him unconscious, and grabbed the money and ran away.
What kind of character that tall one was, the gang leader knew very well, and believed seven points as soon as he heard it, while sending people to search for the tall one, while comforting A Hao, and giving him half a patch of medicine to send him away.

"The sky is bright, get up, get up!" Someone on the top knocked on the clapper and shouted, and stepped on the deck with a creak. "Docking, Giant Deer Port is here, get off the boat quickly!"
Why dock at Giant Deer Port again? He He Lingchuan heard the sound and sat up, stunned for a few breaths before remembering his mission.
He was assigned by Zhong Zhong Shengguang to bring back the Bright Lamp from the Flash Gold Plain.
That thing was extremely important to General Hong.
So, he came again.
"Boss, get off the boat quickly!" Hu Min on the side happily carried his luggage.
Anyone who has drifted on the ocean for several months would be so impatient to step on land.
A large ocean-going ship is a large floating cage.
The sea guests on the ship rushed down in a hurry, only He He Lingchuan followed slowly behind.
What's the rush? He just stepped on the wharf here a few days ago.
Both docked at Giant Deer Port, both had to find the Bright Lamp.
The Panlong world and reality almost overlapped.
When he yawned for the second time, Menban and others also joined him.
For this long journey, he brought Hu Min, Menban, A Luo, and the elite team he trained in Yuheng City, totaling ten people.
Menban walked and turned his neck, making a series of cracking sounds: "Drifting for seventy or eighty days, mushrooms grew on my bedding! If A Luo hadn't said it was poisonous, I would have chewed it at night."
The cabin was dark and damp, and there was a smell of rotten feet that lingered, so it was not strange to grow termites, mice, bugs, and mushrooms.
At this time, another sea guest, nearly forty years old, came over, with a bit of white hair, tall and thin.
"Mr. He!" He raised his hand to greet He He Lingchuan, and wrinkles appeared at the corners of his eyes when he smiled. "It's a deal, come to my house to stay for two days after getting off the boat!"
This person was named Wang Wei, boarded the ship at Blade Port, followed the ship for more than ten days, but drank with He He Lingchuan for three or four days.
He was a private school teacher, his home was in Giant Deer Port, and the school was on vacation during the busy farming season because the students had to go home to help harvest grain.
There was no income during this period, so Wang Wei had to go out to run solo to subsidize his family.
His personality was as enthusiastic as fire, and he got along very well with He He Lingchuan and others.
"The nonsense when drinking, how can it be taken seriously?" He He Lingchuan waved his hand. "We have so many people, it's better not to add trouble to you, staying at an inn is fine."
"How can that be?" Wang Wei shook his head like a wave drum. "Giant Deer Port lacks everything, but it has the most pickpockets. If you stay in a hotel at night, when you open your eyes at dawn, except for what you are wearing, everything will be stripped clean!"
Hu Min smiled: "Isn't Master Wang also opening an inn during this time?"
Wang Wei was serious: "That's different, different. My house usually doesn't allow outsiders to enter."
About to get off the boat, He He Lingchuan looked at the trestle bridge: "This wharf was just renovated?"
The wood of the trestle bridge seemed to have just been painted, the smell of tung oil hadn't dissipated, and there weren't many barnacles attached to the reef.
Also in Giant Deer Port, this wharf was different from the one he saw a few days ago, it was very new.
The sailor tying the rope on the trestle bridge heard it and replied: "Not renovated, it was just built! The Shipping Department paid for it, and it was built and put into use three months ago."
After getting off the boat, although the sea breeze blowing in his face also carried a heavy fishy smell, He He Lingchuan stopped his steps subconsciously.
This is Giant Deer Port? The berths on the side of the trestle bridge were almost full, and all kinds of merchant ships and fishing boats swayed lightly with the waves.
Porters came and went carrying cargo, like diligent worker ants; guests went up and down, and even bargained with the captain.
The buildings on the shore were new and old, but most of them had been rectified, and even if they had patches, the storefronts were clean.
The road was not as wide as He He Lingchuan's Suoding Island, but it was relatively flat.
There were mostly beggars and refugees on the side of the wharf in later generations.
But here, there were many donkey carts and ox carts parked around the wharf, and the drivers were working hard to solicit business.
In short, the busyness of this port was comparable to White Sand Port, and people coming and going were very busy, all knowing what they had to do.
The Giant Deer Port of later generations, whether it was the number of ships or passengers, did not reach 30% of here.
Oh my, was Giant Deer Port so prosperous before? Wang Wei asked He He Lingchuan: "What's wrong?"
"This place is quite prosperous." He He Lingchuan said truthfully. "Unexpected."
