Chapter 71 The Connector 1
Chapter 71: Joiner 1
After descending along the hillside, Jiang Lang slowly walked back down, frowned slightly. Judging from the defense at the door, the secret training place of the Japanese pirates should be there, so his current problem is how to get in.
However, before getting in, two problems must be solved first, namely, eating and sleeping. From yesterday afternoon to today, he has not finished his water. Fortunately, when he left Fuzhou, Jiang Chengzhi gave him some broken silver, and the two tragic devils also had some silver on them. When he came up just now, he also saw shops and hotels selling food on the roadside. After all, when the ronin on this island had nothing to do, he just drank besides sleeping, so there were naturally no shortage of this wine shop.
However, it was still early and the wine shop had not opened, so Jiang Lang started to wander around in this area, with the purpose of finding the joint man Jiang Chengzhi arranged here. And now there are so many ronin dressed like him, who would care about him?
Before long, Jiang Lang saw many people running towards a place, and it seemed like something big happened. Looking carefully at the direction of these people, it turned out to be where they threw down the corpse of the Japanese pirates.
It was sooner or later that the body was discovered. Jiang Lang did not show a look of panic, but followed those people in that direction. According to common sense, the murderer would run as far as he could kill someone. No one would have thought that the murderer would run back to see.
When Jiang Lang mixed in the crowd and rushed to the place where he placed his corpse, there were already three layers inside and three layers outside. Just as he was about to squeeze forward, he was gently hit by someone.
"I'm really sorry!"
A somewhat pleasant female voice came over.
When Jiang Lang looked at it, he found that the one who hit him was a girl wearing a pink Japanese kimono, her long satin-like hair was tied up by a red silk satin. Because she was now lowering her head and seeing her appearance clearly.
Jiang Lang immediately bent down and said in Japanese: "I'm sorry, I didn't see it, please forgive me!"
The girl's body trembled and was obviously surprised. She had never encountered such a polite warrior again. At least on this island, she raised her head curiously. What caught her eyes was a pretty handsome face, and her pretty face couldn't help but turn red.
Jiang Lang also raised his head at this time and saw that the girl in front of him was about seventeen or eighteen years old. Although she was not very beautiful, she was very pretty and now she had a hint of blush on her face.
When the girl saw Jiang Lang looking at her, her face turned red again. She bent down, bowed and left like a runaway.
Jiang Lang couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he looked at the girl who was running away. However, it was not the time to study it now. Putting aside the surprise in his heart, he was about to squeeze in, but he didn't expect the crowd surrounding him to disperse outside. At the same time, the crowd also squeezed towards both sides. Jiang Lang couldn't help but follow the crowd. At the same time, he did not forget to look inside. Four ronin people walked out carrying a stretcher, covering a corpse with cloth. There was a hint of solemn on the faces of the four ronin people, but the people around him seemed to not care at all. From their conversation, Jiang Lang also knew that the situation of fighting people on this island often happened. Seeing someone dead here, he thought they were killed again.
When he heard these Jiang Lang's hearts, he couldn't help but let go, and left quietly, and then continued to walk slowly between the simple houses. At the same time, he carefully looked at the houses on both sides. This person knew that he was coming and would leave marks in some places to facilitate his contact with him. This mark is something that ordinary people could not pay attention to.
Before he walked for a long time, Jiang Lang stood in front of a wooden house. Like other wooden houses, the wooden house was no different from other ones on the surface, but in an inconspicuous place at the door of the wooden house, there was a small mark engraved. This mark may be regarded as an unintentional work by the owner in the eyes of others, but in Jiang Lang's eyes, it was different. This mark was exactly the contact mark that Jiang Chengzhi told him.
He silently wrote down the location of the cottage, and then did not stop for a moment, but continued to walk forward. Now he was not sure whether it was this house, so he planned to finish reading all the houses before making a decision.
After visiting all the alleys in this area, Jiang Lang did not find the same marked house, so he determined without hesitation that the small house should be the contact location that Jiang Chengzhi mentioned. However, Jiang Lang did not go in immediately, but walked towards the tavern. Now his stomach was so hungry that he was yelling. This task was to be completed, but he had to eat.
Still holding a piece of grass in his mouth, Jiang Lang walked into the tavern swaggeringly and quickly looked at the environment in the tavern: the tavern is not very big, it looks a bit simple, but it is very clean. It is almost noon now, and there are already many guests, basically the ronin on the island. Two men and women in their forties are really shuttled between these people, greeting the guests enthusiastically.
He chose a table near the corner, Jiang Lang sat over, and then the man immediately came up and said with a smile: "What do you want to eat?"
Jiang Lang deliberately made his voice sound a little hoarse and said, "A jar of wine, serve as some dishes!" Then, he took out a piece of silver for him.
The boss took the money and bent down and said, "Then please wait."
Jiang Lang nodded, then sat there quietly, and his ears began to pay attention to what the people around him were talking. The so-called sayings after drinking, when these people get drunk, they can't control their mouths.
However, after hearing their content, Jiang Lang was very disappointed. In their conversation, most of them were about the killing of the Japanese pirate this morning, and it did not involve what he wanted to know. Thinking about it, Jiang Lang was relieved: Japan is a country with a very strict hierarchy and status, and those who can know the relevant secrets would not be trained at this time, or those with high status would naturally disdain to come to such a simple tavern.
Shaking his head slightly, Jiang Lang took back his thoughts. At this time, the male boss had already walked to the table with the wine and food on a wooden plate, carefully placed the wine and food on the table, and then bowed and said, "You have prepared all your wine and food, please use it slowly!"
After saying that, he stepped back. Many new faces appeared on the island every day, so the boss did not feel anything strange about Jiang Lang, the new face.
Jiang Lang nodded, picked up the chopsticks and ate the wine and food. Now his stomach was rumbling. Wine was not a good wine. Needless to say, the royal palace was not even comparable to some wine shops in the capital. However, this is the case on this island. For these Japanese pirates, as long as it was wine, it would be good.
The dish is beef, but with some flavor of their country, it is different from the beef made in the wine shops in Beijing. This is what Jiang Lang is most satisfied with.
After eating for a while, I heard a pleasant voice saying, "Boss, give me a pot of wine."
Hearing the sound was very familiar, Jiang Lang couldn't help but turn his head and see. He was talking and hitting the girl while watching this morning. Now she was standing in front of the counter and handing a bottle to the female boss.
The female boss smiled and said, "Miss Chuanqi, it's not good to drink too much!" After that, he handed her a pot of wine.
The girl immediately bent down and said, "Thank you for your concern, I've said goodbye!"
The female boss also replied, "I'm thanking you for your patronage, please go slowly!"
