C50 (1/2)
That day, Jin Jian, Lu Yi, and Ji Dao Ying were having their meal in the inn when a tall man wearing a bamboo hat suddenly walked in. When he saw Jin Jian and the others, he couldn't help but pause, as if his heart had been greatly shocked.
Jin Jian looked at that person's gaze. He seemed to be familiar with that person, and his heart was beating like a drum.
That person had already sat down at a table and called out to the shop owner, ”Waiter, bring two jugs of good wine and cut another three catties of meat!”
The shop owner agreed and went down to prepare.
When Ying Ji heard this person's voice, he could not help but turn his head to look at him, and said to Jin Jian: ”Eldest senior brother!”
Jin Jian was shocked. ”Did you get it wrong?” His voice doesn't sound like Eldest Brother at all. ”
Ju Dao Ying said, ”But look at his body, even his temperament is very similar to Da Shixiong!”
Lu Yi said, ”That Diao Dian's temperament …” Just as he was about to speak, Jin Jian was afraid that she would tell him the story of how he was chased by Dai Langtu, so he quickly stuffed a bun into her mouth.
Lu Yi took down the steamed bun. Just as she was about to curse at Jin Jian, she saw Jin Jian point at Ji Dao Ying, who was beside him, and wink at her.
Lu Yi's heart moved immediately, but she didn't say anything else. She viciously bit down on the bun, causing Jin Jian to feel pain on behalf of the bun.
On the other hand, Ying Duoduo had been staring at the man wearing the bamboo hat the entire time. He was only staring at the lower edge of the bamboo hat, hoping to see some of his aura coming out from it.
However, after looking at it for a long time, he still couldn't understand anything. He felt very disappointed.
The shop owner had already brought the meat and wine that the man wanted. The man continued to eat in silence, not even lifting his face.
Lu Yi nudged Jin Jian with her elbow and curled her lips at Ying Jidao, meaning that you should hurry up and think about whether to tell him something. What if that person really was Dai Lang Tu?
Jin Jian understood in his heart, but at this moment, his heart was also beating furiously. If this person really was Dai Lang Tu, then he would have no choice but to tell the news of Dai Lang Tu's betrayal to Mo Wuji. He could only pray that this person was not Dai Lang Tu.
The more he looked, the more he became infatuated with her. In the end, he couldn't help but stand up and walk towards that person.
Everyone in the inn looked over, but the person wearing the bamboo hat was still silently eating his meat and drinking his wine, not even sparing a glance in their direction.
When Ying Ying heard Jin Jian's shout, he turned his head to look at Jin Jian and Lu Yi and said, ”What are you two doing?”
Lu Yi laughed, ”Haha, I'm sorry everyone. My little brother has gone crazy. Let's go back to our room first! ”
As he said that, he dragged Jin Jian and Ji Dao Ying back into the room.
Closing the door, Ying Ying asked, ”Why are you dragging us back?”
Lu Yi said, ”Because …” You should ask him! ” Lu Yi pointed at Jin Jian.
Jin Jian said, ”Uh, this, yes, you dragged us back. Why are you asking us again?”
Ji Ying looked at Lu Yi and said, ”That's right!”
Lu Yi pointed at Ji Dao Ying and told Jin Jian with her eyes, ”If you don't want to say it, then I can only tell you the truth.”
The two of them hurriedly waved their hands, hinting her to hold on for a little longer.
Seeing the two of them acting weird, Ying Ying said, ”Is there something you two are hiding from me?”
Jin Jian quickly said, ”No, no.”
Ju Dao Ying said, ”What do you mean no, quickly tell me!”
Jin Jian said, ”About this, uh, actually, our problem is, it's fine!”
Ji Dao Ying said, ”Alright, if you don't say anything, I'm going to leave. I want to see if that person below is senior brother. How could we miss each other out after so much difficulty?”
As he said that, he prepared to leave.
Lu Yi stomped her feet. ”Aiya, let me tell you, it's your Eldest Senior Brother, Dai Lang Tu …”
Jin Jian quickly said, ”It's eldest senior brother, he's hiding something from you!”
Ying Ju turned around and said, ”Big Senior, what is he hiding from me?”
Jin Jian said, ”Uh, I'm not hiding this from you, but from all of us!”
Ji Yin asked: ”What do you mean?”
Jin Jian said, ”About this, uh, Senior Sister, think about it. Senior Brother does not like to hide his face. Why is he wearing such a sinister bamboo hat this time?” Of course, let's assume that the person is our Big Senior. ”
Ju Dao Ying said, ”That's right, but we can't miss him because of this!”
Jin Jian said, ”However, just as we entered the door, this person's gaze towards us seemed to pause for a moment.”
Ju Dao Ying said, ”That's right, so this only proves that he's Big Senior!”
Jin Jian said, ”He had disguised himself, but we did not. This means that he can recognize us with a single glance, but the problem has come. Since he could have recognized us with a single glance, why didn't he recognize us?”
Lu Yi said, ”Yeah!”
Jin Jian glanced at Lu Yi and said, ”Moreover, Lu Yi went crazy and stepped on my foot just now. I shouted out loud and attracted everyone's attention. Even if eldest senior brother didn't recognize us when we entered, he should have recognized us by now, right? But he did not acknowledge us! ”Why?”
Lu Yi said, ”Yeah, why?”
Ji Dao Ying said, ”Don't waste your breath, hurry up and say it!”
Jin Jian replied, ”There are only two answers. Firstly, this person is not eldest senior brother. Secondly, even if this person is eldest senior brother, he must have some difficulties that prevented us from meeting each other.”
Lu Yi said: ”Right, right, right, Senior Sister Ying Ji, you see, Jin Jian is still smarter.”
Ju Dao Ying said, ”What you said makes sense.”
Jin Jian said, ”Therefore, we shouldn't disturb him now.”
Ji Yin asked: ”Then what do you think we should do?”
Jin Jian looked at Lu Yi and saw that she was about to escape with two fingers.
Jin Jian said, ”Oh, I think we should leave this place immediately.”
Ji Yin asked: ”Leaving, why?”
Jin Jian said, ”Err, based on our previous argument, if this person is eldest senior brother, then he must have had some kind of last resort, so he didn't want to meet us. But when he first came in, senior sister, you stared at him, and my painful roar must have aroused suspicions, since eldest senior brother doesn't want to show his face here, it means that he's hiding his face to avoid the person we're afraid of, and our various signs might cause eldest senior brother to reveal his identity. So this junior brother thinks that it's best to leave first.”
Ji Yin said: ”But, we finally got a clue!”
Jin Jian said, ”Senior has not been in the Arctic Icecap for such a long time, you must have found a big clue.”
Polar Ying said: ”What clues?”
Jin Jian said, ”For the time being, I don't know. Maybe there's some important connection with the Mayfly race.”
Ji Yin replied, ”So he had been here for such a long time. The reason he didn't come to the Arctic Icecap was because he was dealing with the mayfly tribe.”
