Chapter 143: Why Are You Still Here?
Fang Shanding made a deal with Dragon. He must kill Xiao Baoshan within seven days.
Meanwhile, Fang Shanding gave Xiao Baoshan’s portrait to Dragon and told him that Xiao Baoshan was working in the dock.
When Dragon got the portrait, he glanced at it with one eye, which made Fang Shanding’s heart suddenly skip a beat.
When Dragon had looked at him just now he felt like he was looking somewhere else, but now, when Dragon looked at the portrait, Fang Shanding felt that Dragon was looking at him.
This made Fang Shanding feel rather uneasy and wondered if this Dragon guy was really able to kill Xiao Baoshan. In short, Fang Shanding did not have much faith in him.
Dragon also sensed Fang Shanding’s doubt, so he was thinking of showing off some of his moves in front of Fang Shanding.
He suddenly jumped high up, aimed at a little tree beside them and slashed it hard. The tree was instantly sliced in half down the middle.
Fang Shanding was shocked and speechless, so he then paid the money without hesitation.
When Dragon went back on his way, he started unfolding the portrait and looked at it carefully. The moment he saw the portrait clearly, his one eye opened wide all of a sudden.
Xiao Baoshan?
…
At the dock.
Xiao Baoshan also went sailing with a s.h.i.+p today. On this trip they would go to a town a thousand miles away. What they were carrying was a s.h.i.+pment of cotton cloth made in the south.
Just as they set out he heard Seven talking to him. “Brother Baoshan, a boat is following behind us.”
“I know!” Xiao Baoshan was standing peacefully on the bow of the s.h.i.+p. However, he was paying attention to their surroundings the whole time.
“I think the boat looks very strange,” said Seven.
Xiao Baoshan only said, “Seven, stay calm.”
Okay, Xiao Baoshan is always calm like this.
One time in the previous month they had gone sailing when pirates had showed up in front of them, though Xiao Baoshan still asked Seven to remain calm.
Just then the s.h.i.+p behind them suddenly sped up. They had two boatmen rowing and panting and they caught up in no time.
Seven was horrified. “Baoshan, they’ve caught up with us and the guy has one eye. He, he…has come up.”
In the small boat, Dragon used his lightness kung fu and reached Xiao Baoshan’s s.h.i.+p quickly.
Apart from Xiao Baoshan and Seven, there were still two subordinates of the s.h.i.+p owner. Seeing someone suddenly jump up on deck, the two ordinates were so scared that they began to shout for help. “Pirates! Pirates!”
Before long, some other men who could fight came up on the deck, but they dared not step up and fight but just observed the situation from a distance. They hoped that Xiao Baoshan could make the move and go to fight as, after all, Xiao Baoshan was paid to protect them.
However, Xiao Baoshan did not speak and simply looked at Dragon.
Dragon was looking at Seven the whole time. Seven was so scared that his legs gave out and he collapsed to the deck.
Actually, Dragon was staring at Xiao Baoshan.
“Dragon.”
“Baoshan!”
The two of them spoke at the same time which shocked Seven on the other side.
Seven asked, “Baoshan, this guy, do you know him?”
Xiao Baoshan nodded.
“But why does he keep staring at me?” Seven asked.
“He isn’t looking at you. He’s looking at me,” said Xiao Baoshan.
Seven was speechless. Did his eyes or Dragon’s eye have some problem?
Seven then stood a bit further away from his line of sight. As expected, Dragon stopped looking at him and it was clear where he was looking now.
“Then, then is he a good person or a bad person? Is he going to rob this s.h.i.+p?” asked Seven.
