Demon Lord Gets Married

Chapter 198 - So What If I'm a Foppish King

Teng Yu stepped into the water and squatted down to touch that hole. He discovered that the hole was not big, its edges were neat, and it was actually a regular square.

His gaze gradually turned cold as he asked the chef beside him, “Do you know when the loophole appeared? “Who was the person who checked them before this?”

The chef was so scared that he did not know how to raise his hands anymore. Even if Third Prince was talking to him politely, he would be scared to death, let alone this kind of tone.

He stammered, “Your servant … It was also because they did not have enough manpower that they were sent down to check it out … As soon as I came down, I found that there was water coming out of the hold. As for who checked the cabin before, this servant really doesn't know. “

Teng Yu did not plan to make things difficult for him, so he had him light up a lantern and stand by the side while he searched for anything that could block his escape.

Very soon, Han Qing also brought the boat guy along, and along with him was Yin Xu. Seeing that he was wearing a simple shirt, Teng Yu frowned, “Why are you wearing such thin clothes? It's windy outside, so it's easy to catch cold. “

Yin Xu stepped on the water and walked over to his side, touching the cold body under his rain cape, “This young master's body is many times stronger than yours, you should worry about yourself.”

As he spoke, he took off Teng Yu's straw hat and cape, ignoring the fact that others were present, and ordered him to use his internal energy to dry his clothes.

Han Qing poked the boatsman, indicating him to take a look at the loophole.

“Eh …” The boatsman looked in the water and gave a cry of alarm.

“What's wrong?”

“This …” The boatsman swallowed and said with difficulty, “This gap doesn't look like it was made by someone. It looks like it was created by someone.”

Yin Xu snorted: “It can't be that someone suddenly came out to poke holes in our boat, right?”

That was naturally impossible. Not to mention how someone had suddenly appeared in this boundless sea, even if there was, it would still be unrealistic to hide in this sort of storm and hack into ships.

“Call the people who inspected the ship first. Since they are people, then there are only two possibilities. Either they exist from before, or you haven't found out, or there are spies on the ship.”

However, everyone believed that it was the former. If there was a spy, no matter how foolish he was, he wouldn't have lost his life to do such a stupid thing.

“Your Highness, please calm your anger. Before the ship went to sea, it had already been inspected several times. Every four hours, this little one will also check with the guards. Indeed, I didn't notice this flaw before.”

Yin Xu knelt down and touched the hole in the water, and after feeling around a few times he said: “The bottom of this boat is quite thick, half of the sides are very neat and not rough, while the other half seem to have been torn apart by a huge force, probably because someone had made half of the hole beforehand, and was pressed all the way by the sea water, which caused this hole to open.”

Teng Yu was not stupid, “Since we have to squeeze from the outside, the wooden board should still be in the cabin, we will know after looking around.”

Han Qing, bring a few people to check all over the place. Since you are human, you must not be the only one with a loophole. “

Everyone's heart skipped a beat as they hurriedly prepared to go.

The bottom of the ship was very large, and this was where they kept their supplies. Although it had only been at sea for three days, there were still two extraordinary masters on board, so they had prepared plenty of things.

Han Qing called over a dozen guards down, and each of them held a lantern that illuminated their surroundings. Because the boat was shaking previously, many of the goods that were stacked together were scattered, and in the end, Han Qing's eyes were sharp as he found a small piece of wood next to a bamboo basket.

“It's this!” Han Qing shouted as he passed the piece of wood to Teng Yu.

Teng Yu coldly snorted, the palm-sized piece of wood perfectly fit the hole, the edges were indeed half rough and half smooth, “Continue looking!”

After searching in the middle of the night, the two guards discovered two gaps that were about to form. This made everyone's eyes turn red with envy. Which bastard was so crazy that he wanted them to sink into the vast sea?

The boat had already sunk a little because it carried too much water. As long as a huge wave came, it would be enough to turn the boat upside down.

“Your Highness, we can only temporarily obstruct the way. I suggest that we wait until the rain lessens before heading back. The safety of you and Seventh Young Master is more important.”

Han Qing nodded his head in agreement, “That's right, since we know that someone has done something, then the other party might not only have this kind of method, let us return first.”

If they were on the shore, they really wouldn't be afraid of the other side playing any tricks. However, on this sea full of water, no matter how skilled they were, they couldn't display it.

Teng Yu's face darkened. He glanced at Yin Xu and nodded, feeling extremely unhappy.

No one wanted to make a mistake while they were out with their sweetheart. It was a face-smacking question.

The people on the boat had already cursed the group of people who were courting death into the coffin. They were all rubbing their hands together, waiting for the people to be dragged out and slaughtered when they returned.

Teng Yu asked Han Qing to arrange for people to take turns keeping watch, while the rest of them went to change clothes and soak in the water for the majority of the night.

Once they were out of the cabin, Teng Yu suddenly thought of a possibility. He squinted and asked Yin Xu: “Tell me, could it be that the group of people we met in the afternoon did it?”

“You mean the returning cargo ships? That generous and passionate manager? ” Yin Xu scratched his chin, and thought about this possibility. Needless to say, the other party actually had the time to commit such a crime.

If he had really been set up on the shore, even if he couldn't see it from the inside of the boat, he should be able to see some traces outside. However, after checking a few times, no one found out that it was abnormal.

“Then the identities of those people are suspicious. They might not even be people from Xiao Family.” There was probably no such stupid person as the person who signed up for the crime.

“If our ship sinks and no one lives, then what's the problem with their registration number? You're just a bunch of dead people, how could you speak? “

Furthermore, the sea was boundless. Those few ships that travelled in different directions might not land at Cloud Bridge Pier. At that time, it would be like searching for a needle in a haystack. It would be hard to find them.

“If that's the case, then it means that the other party knew that we were going to sea. That's why they are planning this.”

“The matter of me going out to sea was not kept a secret. Most likely, they noticed it when I was about to board the boat at the yamen.”

“I've really underestimated the courage of this group of people.” Yin Xu scoffed, looks like someone was finally going to take action.

The two of them looked at each other, sparks flying from their eyes. They really weren't afraid of the other party making a move. What they were afraid of was hiding their heads and showing their tails, and they still had to dig deeply one by one.

“After we get back, we can just add more fuel to the fire. It's not enough, these people don't even know how to write the word ‘afraid'.” Teng Yu brought Yin Xu back to the cabin. The inside of the house was also filled with water, but fortunately the window was sealed shut so the bed was still clean.

“How depressing. I said that I would bring you out to play, but in the end you could only return disappointed!” Teng Yu held Yin Xu's hand to his face and looked at him apologetically.

Yin Xu lightly patted him on the face, “Don't be numb all over, listen to my whole body is uncomfortable, this is all I can do for the scenery on the ocean, it's very monotonous, what's the difference between watching one day and watching three?”

“I heard that there is an island in the south, and there are some original residents there. I wanted to go see what the natives look like, but I heard that they are naked all year round, drinking blood and looking like savages.”

After Yin Xu heard this, he laughed loudly, “What's so special about that? If we threw you on the island for a few years, you would be like that too. Aren't we all humans?

In the Cultivation World, there were all sorts of demons and devils, so he really did not care about savages.

Teng Yu's self-esteem was severely shaken, as he hugged Yin Xu and took two bites, “Alright, if there's a chance in the future, we can go to the Western Regions to see the red-furred monster. It's been in the capital for a long time, and people are like frogs at the bottom of a well.

Yin Xu knew that he was a person that didn't want to be bound, but if he wanted to sit in that position, he was destined to die in that small four-sided city.

Yin Xu rubbed his chin and thought: If he was unable to protect this loneliness in the future, who knows what kind of situation it would be when he leaves his side.

Yes, Yin Xu had never thought of staying in the palace for their entire lives, he had never told Teng Yu the truth. The other party had never asked either.

Teng Yu looked at him for a long time, then suddenly said: “Even if there are places that I cannot see, it's better if you help me take a look.” He rested his chin on Yin Xu's shoulder, and after he finished speaking, the two sunk into silence.

Yin Xu thought, maybe this man understood him, but why did it sound like he was going to let him down?

“When the time comes, the whole world will be yours. Why follow some kind of ancestral system? It's not like the sun is going to leave you. ” The monarchs of the mortal world were dead set on guarding that palace. Would it be enough to stabilize the world?

Teng Yu snickered on his shoulder and patted Yin Xu's back, “Alright, I'll try my best …” So what if he had to faint for this person?
