Volume 19: Legend of Lu Xiaofeng Chapter 484: The Famous Hall
The edge of the nameless island.
It is still the same desolate island, with golden sand, blazing sunshine, blooming flowers, and refreshing breeze. Everything is so beautiful.
It is spring-like here all year round, the climate remains unchanged, birds are singing and insects are chirping, and it is warm everywhere.
It seemed that nothing had changed since Su Weiyun first came here.
It is not easy to find such a place. No wonder the old man could endure not setting foot in the Central Plains for ten years.
Chang Wuyi carefully asked the guide, "Is this the Nameless Island?"
The guide glanced at Su Weiyun and said, "Yes, if you are here to see the island master, go quickly."
Chang Wuyi first docked the boat near another uninhabited island, then pulled the boat to the shore. After all the goods were unloaded, the people on that island took the boat and sailed for about seven or eight days before finally bringing them to the nameless island.
The man who was steering the boat was quite skilled in martial arts, but he did not reveal his name and only let Chang Wuyi call him the guide.
When Chang Wuyi asked Su Weiyun and Lu Xiaofeng if they could go, the guide readily agreed.
This was certainly not because Chang Wuyi had a great reputation or a high status; it was because the guide recognized Su Weiyun.
This guide was also one of the "playful wolves" who left Wolf Mountain.
He knew that Su Weiyun had been to Wuming Island before, and was the old man's distinguished guest, so he naturally would not neglect her.
Lu Xiaofeng was the first to jump off the boat and step onto the land of the nameless island.
"This is indeed a good place. It's worth my journey here."
Su Weiyun and Chang Wuyi also got off the boat .
The guide did not go ashore again, but said goodbye to Su Weiyun and returned alone.
After his ship sailed away, there were still several large ships docked on the shore. These large ships were very different in shape from his ship and were obviously not from the same ship.
Lu Xiaofeng stared at the ships for a long time before he slowly said, "I thought that the Nameless Island was a very mysterious place and that only a special guide could get there. Now it seems that this is not the case."
The three of them stopped on the shore and could not leave without permission. They had to wait quietly for someone from the island to pick them up.
Chang Wuyi explained: "This may be a merchant ship traveling to and from the nameless island. This seems to be a very wealthy place with a lot of supplies, everything you need."
Su Weiyun looked at it carefully for a long time, but shook his head and said, "It doesn't seem to be."
"no?"
Both of them looked at Su Weiyun, waiting for his explanation.
Su Weiyun turned to look at Lu Xiaofeng and suddenly smiled: "It seems that you are not as good as Sikong Zhaixing in this respect. No wonder you dig so many earthworms for him."
Lu Xiaofeng couldn't stand hearing this embarrassing thing. He was so angry that his two delicate beards stood up. He said, "I'm not as good as that Sikong Zhaixing? You must be kidding. Apart from my slightly inferior somersault skills, how am I not as good as him?"
Su Weiyun said: "If Sikong Zhaixing was here, he would be able to tell at a glance what goods they are buying and selling."
Lu Xiaofeng began to understand a little bit. Sikong Zhaixing, the "King of Thieves", was the most powerful thief in the world. Apart from the former "Thief Master" Chu Liuxiang, it seemed that no other thief could compare to him.
An expert knows the ins and outs of these ships. Of course, he knew what the ins and outs of these ships were at a glance.
Lu Xiaofeng snorted and said with a smile: "You think I can't do it? Just wait and see!"
The three of them had nothing to do, so Lu Xiaofeng flew very quickly, and with a few light taps, showing his extraordinary lightness skills, he rushed towards the large ships quickly and silently.
Some people were unloading cargo on the boat. It looked like there was a lot of cargo, which was packed in large cowhide boxes. It took several strong men to lift them all.
Sometimes the box was accidentally opened a little, and at a quick glance, it was revealed that what was inside was all real gold, silver, jade, agate, pearls and gems.
If these gems were taken outside, the value of one would be enough to make people fight for it, but here, there was a whole box of them.
Lu Xiaofeng finally reached the side of the boat.
The big men in charge of moving the goods ignored him and continued to gently carry out one large box after another.
Lu Xiaofeng walked over, put his hands behind his back, smiled and nodded from time to time, as if praising the hard work and diligence of these men.
"Not bad, not bad, it's really well done."
Lu Xiaofeng walked leisurely while praising the goods non-stop, as if the goods originally belonged to him.
The big men looked at him with strange eyes, but they didn't say much. They saw that the clothes Lu Xiaofeng wore were of good quality and he had an extraordinary demeanor, so they naturally thought that he was also a big shot.
Lu Xiaofeng raised his hand and opened a box, which was full of pearls the size of longan, emitting a dazzling brilliance under the sunlight.
"Um... yes, yes."
Lu Xiaofeng walked towards another box and lifted it up a little more effortlessly.
This time, it was filled with scrolls, which looked like precious collections of calligraphy and paintings.
"Let me take a look..."
Lu Xiaofeng casually unfolded it, revealing a beautiful landscape with majestic mountains, flowing rivers, and a magnificent atmosphere. It was obviously the work of a famous artist.
He tried his best to suppress his surprise and pretended to comment: "This painting of Emperor Minghuang's Trip to Shu must be an authentic work of Li. It depicts the scenery of Emperor Minghuang's visit to Shu. It was later acquired by the owner of Huayuxuan and has never been seen again. I didn't expect to see it here today."
Lu Xiaofeng gently put the scroll back into the box and said calmly, "I am so lucky to see it today."
He swayed his steps and walked back to Su Weiyun and the other person calmly.
When he got closer, he revealed a sly smile and said, "Hahaha, what do you think? I've seen the things inside, they are indeed authentic. I guess they were brought here from the Central Plains for collection..."
When he said this, he was suddenly stunned.
"I remember that the painting 'Emperor Minghuang's Trip to Shu' was indeed collected by Hua Yuxuan. How did it end up here?"
Su Weiyun suddenly replied: "Because it was one of the seventy valuable calligraphy and paintings stolen from Hua Yuxuan!"
Lu Xiaofeng was shocked and shouted, "Does that mean the Embroidered Thief is also on this island?!"
Chang Wuyi on the side had clenched his fists, veins bulging, and his thin, dark face was filled with anger and hatred!
Su Weiyun said: "Whether he is on the island or not, we can go and ask the island owner and we will know the cause and effect."
This is the most direct way and the best way.
…
Palace pavilion, famous palace.
The name of this palace is Youming Palace.
This is almost a palace, perhaps not as big as the Golden Palace where the emperor received his civil and military officials, but it is definitely hard to find anywhere else.
The main hall was open and spacious, with large gold-embroidered pillars standing on both sides, carved with dragons and phoenixes, climbing up; the floor tiles were all a deep red color, looking simple and high-end; the tables were also made of pure silver, separated and arranged in an orderly manner.
There is also a very long Persian carpet that stretches from the door to the main seat.
This is the official place where Wuming Island welcomes guests. Even Su Weiyun had never been here last time.
Because every time this place is opened, it will inevitably take a lot of manpower to clean, repair, and decorate. As the host, Gong Jiu also has to bathe and burn incense as a great ceremony.
Su Weiyun came in a hurry last time, so the prosperity was not complete.
Su Weiyun came in a hurry today as well, so this arrangement was certainly not set up for him.
Gong Jiu was seen sitting on the purple-gold main seat, toasting a guest at the bottom with a glass of wine from a distance.
Suddenly someone came in and whispered a few words to the old man sitting on the left.
The old man's expression remained unchanged, and he said with a smile, "Please come in together."
