Chapter 679: Jin Banhua, Are You the Bat Island Master?
Chapter 679: Jin Banhua, Are You the Bat Island Master?
The large ship had only four cabins on the upper deck, aside from the lower deck where the sailors resided.
Jin Lingzhi and Hua Zhenzhen shared one cabin, Ying Wanli and Bai Lie another, Chu Liuxiang, Hu Tiehua, and Zhang San occupied one, and Ding Feng invited Gou Zizhang and Jin Banhua to share the last one.
However, before Jin Banhua could even step into his assigned cabin, Chu Liuxiang dragged him into their room.
"Even if you think Hu Tiehua and Zhang San have stinky feet, I won't trade with you," Jin Banhua emphasized. "At least Gou Zizhang and Ding Feng are relatively clean and don't have any body odor."
Hu Tiehua snarled, "That Ding Feng is clearly up to something. Are you really going to share a room with him? What if he tries to kill you while you're sleeping?"
Jin Banhua huffed, "I'm planning to spend money at that Golden Grotto on the sea. Why would he want to kill me?"
Hu Tiehua also huffed, "It would be much easier for him to rob you on the way. Don't forget, Hai Kuo Tian and Xiang Tian Fei are notorious pirates of the sea."
Jin Banhua nodded, "Chu Liuxiang and Hu Tiehua are also notorious bandits on land. Are you just upset because you're losing business to the competition?"
Zhang San burst out laughing, slapping the table. "This kid is pretty amusing. He's going to be my friend from now on!"
Hu Tiehua nearly fumed, "You go ahead! You go ahead! If you have the guts, go to sleep in front of Ding Feng and see if he doesn't slit your throat when you're not looking!"
Chu Liuxiang tried to calm Hu Tiehua, "You know Jin's temper. Getting angry over this won't do you any good."
Jin Banhua chimed in, "Besides, I've saved your life three times. Do you really have the right to be angry with me?"
Hu Tiehua felt a lump in his throat, unable to speak.
Zhang San's eyes lit up, and he patted Hu Tiehua's shoulder, "I've saved your life once too. Do you really have the right to be angry with me?"
Earlier, Hu Tiehua had been knocked out and restrained by Jin Lingzhi, and it was Zhang San who had deliberately damaged his own ship to save Hu Tiehua.
Hu Tiehua glared, "So I'm the only one who can be angry?"
Chu Liuxiang laughed, "If you weren't so quick to anger, you wouldn't be in this state."
With that, Chu Liuxiang finally turned his gaze to Jin Banhua, his eyes intense. "How did you learn about the Golden Grotto on the sea?"
"Because of the Thirteen Clear Winds," Jin Banhua replied.
"You also learned about it because of the Thirteen Clear Winds? We did too!"
Hu Tiehua blurted out, "Jin Lingzhi knows the Thirteen Clear Winds, which she must have bought from the Golden Grotto. Ding Feng is from the Golden Grotto, and he even drew the attention of the Huashan Sect's Master Kumei. But something went wrong the day before yesterday..."
Jin Banhua listened, then pointed at himself, "Don't forget, I also know the Thirteen Clear Winds."
"Eh?" Hu Tiehua seemed to just realize this. "Right! You also know the Thirteen Clear Winds! Could it be that you bought the sword technique from the Golden Grotto too?"
Zhang San's eyes darted around, quietly watching the scene unfold.
"But that doesn't make sense," Hu Tiehua shook his head. "If you already knew about the Golden Grotto, you wouldn't need Yun Conglong's recommendation to get Ding Feng to bring you to the island."
"Good, you're learning!" Jin Banhua nodded approvingly.
"What do you mean, 'good, you're learning'!" Hu Tiehua growled, then asked curiously, "Could it be that the Jin family in the capital really has ties to the Ten Thousand Blessings Garden, and you and Jin Lingzhi are related, so you found out she knows the Thirteen Clear Winds and came here to investigate?"
Jin Banhua thought for a moment, then realized Hu Tiehua's logic. He exclaimed in surprise, "I didn't think you'd actually start using your brain!"
"I always thought your head was full of wine."
"Enough!" Hu Tiefen snapped, "This is dangerous. When Lao Chouchong and I recognized that Jin Lingzhi was using the Thirteen Clear Wind Stances, we attracted several assassination attempts!"
Jin Banhua asked, "Then why did you still board the ship and follow Ding Feng all the way?"
"It's precisely because they were trying to outsmart us that we had to follow them to the Gold-Dissolving Cave on the sea," Hu Tiefen said proudly. "As the saying goes, 'How can one catch a tiger without entering its den?'"
"You're just reacting out of desperation after being targeted for assassination," Jin Banhua emphasized. "You haven't caught any tigers."
Hu Tiefen let out a sigh, "You always knew how to get under my skin."
"Because I learned to keep quiet," Chu Liuxiang smiled. "If Jin wants to tell us something, he will do it regardless of whether we ask."
"If he doesn't want to tell us, asking him won't change that," Hu Tiefen asked.
"Exactly," Chu Liuxiang smiled.
"Don't say that!" Jin Banhua waved his hands frantically. "I come from a wealthy family in the capital; my word is as good as gold!"
"If that's the case, what other information do you have that we don't know?" Chu Liuxiang asked immediately.
"Plenty!" Jin Banhua replied.
Hu Tiefen's eyes lit up, "What do do do know " "You33 do know "3What you "What do?

" finally," Hu Tiefen found a way to challenge Jin Banhua, "It sounds like you're the island lord of the Gold-D-Solving Cave, the Thirteen Clear Wind Stances, other martial arts and wealth. It must be you."
"
"Because of the Thirteen Clear Wind Stances, the other two points,33 Banhua frowned, "'t be you the source of the Thirteen Clear Wind Stances?"

Hu Tiefen, a sudden, "How does that sound like you're the lord of Bat Island?" Island?"

"Exactly," Jin Banhua frowned, "It almost sounds like you're the33 Clear Wind Stances, other martial arts other martial arts, other."

Jin Banhua's eyebrow twitched, and33 Clear Wind Stances and a lot of martial arts, in his eyes,33 Clear Wind Stances, "I can get my hands on the Thirteen Clear Wind Stances, so why not other martial arts?"
?"
"Because if out the Thirteen Clear Wind Stances,'t be to the Gold-Dissolving Cave,'t be difficult to obtain," Jin Banhua replied. " doubt flashed through Hu Tiefen's mind, "So, the lord of Bat Island is really you?"
"Exactly," Chu Liuxiang nodded, "But it's not from Bat Island."
"Why not?""?" Hu Tiefen asked.
.
"Because I have no evidence that you33 came a clear source," Chu Liuxiang replied, " thinking it through, "If the Huashan Sect had approached you,, we would have gone their different path. But I'm certain it's not from Bat Island."
."
"Why not?"?" Hu Tiefen asked.
At that moment, a knock sounded the door.
.
Hai Kuotian's voice came from outside, "Ch Xiangshuai?"
?"
"Chu Xiangshuai,," Chu Liuxiang called out, a pause, finally thinking it through. " " the pieces fell into place.
