Tianjin people will never lose SAN

Chapter 369 Being targeted

"In winter, I traveled to Fuling; in summer, I sailed by boat. Lu Zijing hosted a banquet to invite the saints..."

On the deck of a steam passenger ship on the calm sea, Liu Yonglu sat leaning on a lounge chair, humming the lyrics of Taiping and playing cards.

A few days ago, he made plans to go to the Holy See, so he stayed in Moses Sad for another week. Only after the Church of Wisdom had modified the two ancient relics did the group of six set off.

Millie Tang, Xiaohu, Ling'er, Liu Yonglu, and the little genius brother and sister.

Kogan also wanted to go, but his sister wouldn't let him. Anyway, Miles told Kogan very clearly that if he wanted to go to the Lost Sea, he couldn't go to the Holy See, and if he wanted to go to the Holy See, he couldn't go to the Lost Sea. He could only choose one of the two.

In the end, Kogan had no choice but to stay in New Newland, but Liu Yonglu thought it was not a bad thing. Marquette, Lin and Brown might not be able to handle the work, so it was good for Kogan to stay and help.

Since we are going to the Lost Sea, we must prepare all the necessary supplies for ocean voyages. Lin Bei is an expert in this area, and Marquette has connections, so there is nothing to worry about leaving these two people to prepare.

Nicholas was also on the same boat as Liu Yonglu, but they each had their own things to do. When they met they would just chat and have a meal and did not affect each other.

Although Nicholas had said well before departure that only he and Alva would go, Alva could not take care of himself at that time, and except for breathing a few more times, he was like a dead person, and Nicholas could not pull him up by himself.

Prince Andrew specially assigned several personal attendants to accompany Nicholas, and asked Liu Yonglu to take care of them if anything happened on the way.

And so, Liu Yonglu and six other companions embarked on a journey to the Holy See on a spacious and luxurious steamship.

What to do on a boat on such a hot day? There is no theater to watch, no place to play football, so the six of us just play cards to kill time, and we still play the traditional Tianjin "Liujia".

Liu Yonglu and Xiaohu and Mili'er were in one group, while Ling'er and the little genius brother and sister were in another group.

At first Ling Er was reluctant to take these two losers with her, but Liu Yonglu kept gossiping and fanning the flames:

"Oh, I've heard Xiao Hu praise his sister before, saying that she has the best brain, unique among scorpions.

I didn't believe it at first, but after seeing it today, I realized, Ling'er, you have an amazing brain for memorizing and counting cards.

But, if you want to change, we can change at any time. Millie Tang is great. If you feel it is not suitable, I will let you play with Millie Tang. "

Let me fight the witch!? This is insulting people! ... No, it's insulting God! Even if I win, I won't look good, it's like I'm begging her! No, today I have to lead these two losers to defeat the witch.

On the deck, Ling'er's face flushed red, and the six fingers of her right hand tightly grasped the cards in her hand. Whenever the little genius brother and sister made a mistake, her inky black pupils would glare at them as if she wanted to eat them.

In the game of Liujia, it is useless to be good alone. You need to pay attention to cooperation. You can only win if you help your teammates before running away.

After all, Ling'er lacks experience, Millie Tang and Liu Yonglu have a good understanding of each other, and although Xiaohu's IQ cannot be compared with his sister, it is still better than the little genius brother and sister.

So in a short while, Ling'er and the little genius brother and sister all had notes stuck on their faces.

"I'm setting up a small banquet by the river, and I'm inviting Ting Hou to come here. If you come, you'll be a true gentleman. If you don't come, how can you be called the top general of the Three Kingdoms..."

Liu Yonglu was playing cards and singing the lyrics of Taiping lyrics at the same time, which annoyed Ling'er. She was so annoyed that silver sparks were flying around her. If Xiaohu hadn't been watching, she would have thrown Liu Yonglu into the library for treatment.

"Stop singing, stop singing, are you annoying?" Ling'er could only vent her anger verbally.

"Oh, blame me, blame me!

Oh, Mi Li'er, I said I couldn't come, but you asked me to come. Are you here to play cards? I'm here to be humiliated!

I'm fine every day, but today I won two games and I can't sing the lyrics of Taiping anymore.

Look, you're finding fault with me. I haven't even run away yet. If I run away, I'll be dead!

Isn't this a fool sleeping on a cold kang, relying solely on his strong firepower?

It’s over. I dare not control Ling’er’s next couplet. Really! It’s not okay to sing the lyrics of Taiping. Why don’t we just stop singing it…” Liu Yonglu kept muttering and muttering. Suddenly, a gust of sea breeze blew up, and the small piece of paper on Ling’er’s face fluttered. A black cloud floated over from somewhere in the sky. It was sunny just now, but it was about to change.

The tourists on the deck screamed and ran back to the cabin. Even the captain in the captain's room gripped the steering wheel with a serious expression.

"Ling'er, play cards, don't be unreasonable."

The extra thumb on Xiaohu's left hand was shaking violently, and the boat stabilized from the ups and downs just now.

"I am being unreasonable!?"

Ling'er pointed at her nose. She was really furious. The witch was always acting weird in front of her, and Ricky was always saying mean things to her. Her own brother was also leaning against her and speaking for outsiders! ?

"It's almost time to eat. Why don't we stop playing cards and let me tell your fortune with the cards, Ricky."

Millie Tang was afraid that the situation would go too far, and that if several people teamed up to piss off Ling'er, she would really overturn the table.

So the witch quickly put the cards in her hand on the table and whispered to Liu Yonglu:

"I feel like someone is watching us..."

Liu Yonglu pretended to turn around to get some tea, and sure enough, he saw two people sitting in the distance on the deck. It was windy outside so hard that the other passengers had already left, but these two people were still sitting at the table reading newspapers.

"The Saint's compassion shines upon the earth!"

He suddenly shouted this, and the two peepers quickly folded the newspaper and glanced in the direction of Liu Yonglu.

"It's okay, it's from the Saint Lady."

Liu Yonglu whispered in Millie Tang's ear.

There was nothing important to do in this trip to the Holy See. The main purpose was to take Xiaohu to travel around, so Liu Yonglu deliberately did not buy a direct boat ticket. He changed to a passenger ship in the middle. As they were getting closer and closer to Victoria, it was normal that there were people from the Holy Maiden Sect observing them secretly.

Before coming here, Liu Yonglu put himself in a very correct position. People from the Saint's Faction, including the little genius brother and sister, still call him "Mr. Ricky" when they meet him now.

What this means is that people don’t want to say it out loud. The Holy See knows that he is “Saint Balaam”, and he also knows that the Holy See knows that he is “Saint Balaam”.

But both sides have to pretend to be Investigator Ricky and the Inquisitor. If the truth is revealed, there will be no more fun.

“It seems to be almost there.”

Just at this moment, Xiaohu jumped down from the chair and held the mast on the deck and said.

Liu Yonglu looked in the direction Xiaohu pointed, and indeed, he could vaguely see the coastline and more and more small boats.

"Pack your luggage and get ready to disembark."

With the long whistle sound, the passenger ship slowly entered the port. Liu Yonglu and his companions' tickets were also bought by the royal family, so naturally they were the first to disembark in the first class. They took care of Nicholas and Alva as they walked down the pier first. Then Liu Yonglu and his companions of six carried their luggage and set foot on the land of Victoria.

At the dock, there were ordinary people waiting for the return of their relatives and friends, street vendors selling newspapers and snacks, and sheriffs patrolling in uniform. It was very lively with people coming and going.

Lorenzo, with his hat pulled down, was also among them. Botticelli told him that Saint Barlaan was accompanied by two inquisitors in white robes, a man and a woman. This was the key to identifying Saint Barlaan.

Seeing the little genius siblings, Lorenzo sighed with relief.

He had to go back quickly and inform his friends of the appearance of Saint Barlan to clear his name!
