The Heroes of Gulong: Great Chefs from Past to Present

Chapter 654: Concealing the truth
The sea is vast and boundless.

In the dark night, a fishing boat with star-shaped candles hanging on it is sailing alone on the sea.

On the boat, the beautiful woman in the daytime was rowing the boat with a smug look on her face.

Behind her, three men were slowly waking up.

Hua Manlou was not panicked after waking up, but just began to listen to the sound of wind and waves around him.

Lu Xiaofeng and Ximen Chuxue had been blindfolded. After waking up, they quickly realized that they were on the sea.

The fishing boat was swaying constantly under the push of the waves. Lu Xiaofeng tried hard to hold on to the deck and asked loudly.

"Madam Boss, is the place where we will meet Boss Qinglong so mysterious?"

The beautiful woman didn't turn her head, but just rowed the boat hard and answered with a smile.

"Of course. Boss Qinglong is the most mysterious person in the martial arts world. Even I have never seen Boss Qinglong's true appearance."

When Lu Xiaofeng heard this, he was a little surprised, but he still smiled.

"If that's the case, why were the three of us able to meet Boss Qinglong?"

The beautiful woman smiled and said, "No one can find Boss Qinglong by himself, unless Boss Qinglong wants to see him."

Lu Xiaofeng: "So the three of us are the ones that Boss Qinglong wants to see?"

The beautiful woman shook her head and denied it: "Not three people, but one person."

Lu Xiaofeng was stunned for a moment, then asked with a smile.

"Who is so honored to be favored by Boss Qinglong?"

The beautiful woman smiled and replied, "Of course it's Ximen Chuxue. No one would care about the life or death of Lu Xiaofeng, who only has two eyebrows."

After hearing the answer, Lu Xiaofeng also burst out laughing.

It seems that Ximen Chuxue has been targeted in Jinzhou for a long time, but no one dared to come to him.

Just as Lu Xiaofeng was about to ask something else, the beautiful woman just hushed him and kept silent.

"Here, here."

The beautiful woman's happy voice spread far away, and soon, Lu Xiaofeng felt that a large ship and a fishing boat collided with each other.

The impact was not strong, but Lu Xiaofeng had already heard the beautiful woman's voice.

"I followed your instructions and brought Ximen Chuxue here safely. The reward you promised cannot be reduced in the slightest."

Along with the beautiful woman's voice, a man's voice was heard from above, with a slightly gloomy tone.

"Why are there two more people?"

The beautiful woman smiled and said, "Three people are certainly better than one."

Man on high ground: "Are you kidding us?"

The beautiful woman could tell that the man was a little angry and quickly explained with a smile.

"How dare I, a little lady, but they have been with Ximen Chuxue all the time, and it's not easy to leave them behind."

"I see that one of them is blind, and the other one is full of sweet talk. His eyes keep wandering around the little woman. I don't think they are serious people."

"If you really don't want it, I will turn around and throw it into the sea for them. You don't have to take it back."

The man on the higher ground heard this and spoke with contempt.

"You are really cruel."

The beautiful woman's face became more and more proud, and she also covered her mouth and laughed.

"Who made these heroes look down on a powerless woman like me?"

"What a pity! No matter how powerful your martial arts skills are, you will immediately become a weakling after taking a bottle of tendon softening powder."

After hearing this, Lu Xiaofeng and the other two's expressions changed slightly, but they did not refute.

Because they wanted to see Boss Qinglong, the beautiful woman also said that the condition for seeing Boss Qinglong was that they must lose consciousness.

So before they woke up, they were indeed drugged by the incense.

But the incense they smelled was just an ordinary drug and it was almost working.

Of course, they were not affected by the Softening Muscle Powder.

But listening to this conversation, the beautiful woman and Boss Qinglong are not on the same side?

The beautiful woman's words immediately made the man on the high ground frown.

"Softening muscle powder? Did you poison Ximen Chuxue?"

The beautiful woman saw the man frowning, her eyes rolled, and she also said angrily.

"Otherwise, how could a woman like me who doesn't know martial arts capture the famous Ximen Chuixue here?"

After hearing this, the man nodded silently and looked down at Ximen Chuxue.

Simon was dressed in white, holding a sword and sitting at the stern of the boat. He looked like an ordinary person.

He frowned slightly and asked.

"Will this poison ruin his martial arts?" The beautiful woman smiled, "Of course not. You want a complete and intact Ximen Chuxue, so I will naturally give you a complete and intact Ximen Chuxue."

Man: "How long will the toxicity last?"

The beautiful woman laughed sweetly and replied, "Without an antidote, it will never be cured. I'm afraid my martial arts skills will be wasted."

The man said with a slightly angry tone: "Where's the antidote?"

Beautiful woman: "One hand pays the other hand delivers the goods, no cheating."

The man was silent for a while after hearing this. After a while, he slowly spoke.

"You send the people up first, and when they come up, we pay the money, and then you throw the antidote up, right?"

The beautiful woman said: "My lord is very smart. You can see through my little trick at a glance."

The man was also angry when he heard this.

"Are you afraid that we will rob you?"

The beautiful woman smiled and said, "I don't know martial arts, but I understand human nature."

"You promised a huge reward, but the transaction is taking place at sea. If you are not careful, you will lose both your money and your life."

"You have to have some backup plan before you dare to send it."

The man laughed fiercely: "Then why do you dare to come here alone? Aren't you afraid that we will turn against you after we get the antidote?"

The beautiful woman smiled and explained: "I am a good swimmer. If things really don't work out, I can still get back from the bottom of the sea."

After hearing this answer, the man put away his smile and nodded.

"So you're a female divers. No wonder you dare to come to the sea to trade alone. Are you worried that you won't be able to return if there are too many people?"

After listening to the man's analysis, the beautiful woman immediately became angry and said angrily in a delicate voice.

"Do you want these things, sir? If not, I will throw them into the sea and go back."

Hearing that the beautiful woman was impatient, the man on the higher ground thought for a moment and then spoke.

"We've offered a reward, so we naturally want the person."

The beautiful woman's smile returned to her face, and she immediately asked with a sly look on her face.

"One, or three?"

The man looked at the beautiful woman's cunning eyes and frowned as he asked.

"What's the price for one, and what's the price for three?"

The beautiful woman stood on the boat, speaking in a teasing tone.

"Ximen Chuxue will naturally pay you according to your promise. As for the other two, just count them as Ximen Chuxue."

Man: "You want double the reward?"

When the beautiful woman saw the man hesitating, she put her hand on Lu Xiaofeng's shoulder and said with a smile on her face.

"If you don't agree, I will throw him into the sea."

"These two people can be useful to us too, give them to her."

Just as Lu Xiaofeng was thinking, a familiar voice suddenly came from above. It was Huo Xiu.
No, it was Shangguan Jin's voice.

As Shangguan Jin agreed, the sound of a ladder being lowered was heard from the high ship, and soon Lu Xiaofeng felt that there was an extra person in front of him.

The black cloth in front of him was lifted, and Lu Xiaofeng saw the light again.

The person who pulled off the black cloth was none other than the beautiful proprietress, but now her face was already covered with a thin layer of black mud.

Looking down at the back of the beautiful woman's hand, Lu Xiaofeng sighed helplessly.

"Women's hearts are like needles in the sea. You have deceived us completely."

The proprietress pulled off the black cloth but did not take it away. She stretched out her hands and tied them around Lu Xiaofeng's neck, while replying with a smile.

"Haven't you heard the saying that all women are deceitful, and the prettier the woman, the more likely she is to lie."

The beautiful woman continued to smile as she looked at Lu Xiaofeng's calm eyes.

"So you think I'm beautiful?"

Lu Xiaofeng shook his head and said nothing: "With your deceptive skills, you are naturally as beautiful as a fairy."

Leaning forward, Lu Xiaofeng asked in a serious tone in the beautiful woman's ear.

"We still don't know what effect this soft muscle powder will have after taking it."

The beautiful woman covered her mouth and smiled: "That's what a man becomes after being squeezed dry by a woman."

Hearing this, Lu Xiaofeng also sighed, turned to look at Ximen Chuxue beside him, and asked in a serious tone.

"Simon, are you okay?"

Ximen Chuxue listened to Lu Xiaofeng's reminder and was silent for a long time, then nodded slightly.

As long as you are not unable to even hold the sword and your hands and feet are a little weak, you can still disguise yourself.
