Chapter 144: The First Emperor Dies
The head of Sun Da thought that a saint would be born on the ship, but he didn't expect it to be a holy bird, and he suddenly felt empty and happy.
"That's it?"
He scooped it up with his big hand and took His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was still suspended in the air, in the palm of his hand to look at it. It was a hairless chick with red skin and eyes that had not yet opened, chirping at the head of Sun Da.
"Presumptuous!"
"Don't be rude!"
The dragon and the tiger were succeeded by Sun Xiang without checking for a while, and at this time they both jumped up and put on a desperate posture.
The head of Sun Da is a superior and cares a lot about face. If it was two human beings, even if it was two major repairs, and he scolded him mercilessly like this, he would inevitably teach him a lesson.
But since the other party is two geese... Never mind. Sun Xiang returned the crown prince to the dragon, and then scratched his head. The crew and the penguins were staring at him, and he felt like a fool.
"This seat is to be closed, and no one is allowed to disturb me until I reach my destination!"
After bluntly leaving this very powerful sentence, the head of Sun Da floated away, no longer caring about the rights and wrongs of this ship.
The descending dragon protected the prince between his feet, staring at Sun Xiang's back with some dissatisfaction. But because of the traditional friendship between penguins and humans, he is now unable to attack. Because after all, Sun Xiang has merit, but he doesn't know how to be polite.
"General, forget it!" Fu Hu patted him on the shoulder with his fin, "It's just an ignorant human!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sun Xiang left the crowd and claimed to be closed. In fact, he was just uneasy and anxious in his heart, so he turned his head to understand the mental method.
The Queen continued its way to the south coast of the North-Zemlya Islands. There are many humans on board, especially Ji Yuanyuan, who are very interested in His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the penguins. Women have a dream of marrying a prince, even if the prince is a penguin.
But the dragon lord hid His Royal Highness the prince tightly, and there were thick feathers between his feet, and the fledglings were very safe to stay there.
The penguins' previous reckless behavior made the penguins very concerned, and they didn't want these overly curious humans to hurt His Royal Highness the Prince.
"But what does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince eat?" Ji Yuan entangled the dragon and asked, "The child wants to drink milk, the dragon, how do you feed the milk as a man?" We have a big cow here, why don't you give us His Royal Highness the Prince, and we will feed it." ”
"Are you talking about the big cow being the cow sister?" the dragon boss looked at her with disdain, "We are birds, we don't drink milk, we only eat fish." ”
After speaking, the dragon's throat tumbled, and with a whin, he spit out a fish. Among the fluffy feathers between his feet, the head of a chick suddenly stretched out, and caught the fish steadily.
The action was done in one go, but Ji Xuanxuan still saw the appearance of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince clearly, and it seemed to be very cute. She wanted to play with the little bird between the dragon's feet, but when she thought about it, it seemed like driving, and she was too frightened to move anymore.
In a leisurely and pleasant atmosphere, the Queen moved forward for another half day, and by this time they were almost at their destination.
Far away from the sea horizon, you can already see the pale blue southern shore of the North-Zemlya archipelago. The shipping route here has fully entered the Polar Circle, and the density of ice floes in the water has significantly hindered navigation. Jimmy Town had to turn the steering wheel back and forth in the cockpit, keeping his eyes glued to the sonar screen so as not to hit the growing ice floe.
In this way, I drove for another hour, and it was still a little far from the south bank. But there was a mournful wail on the sea.
The crew did not know what the situation was, could it be the resentful spirit in the sea? But when the two big men heard this wail, they hurried to the bow of the ship. They could hear it as a cry of their kind.
Sure enough, 300 yards to starboard on the Queen, there was a relatively large iceberg. It is densely packed with penguins, and at first glance there are probably thousands of them. They huddled together and cried at the sky with their long beaks.
Seeing a familiar face in the penguin flock, the dragon hurriedly motioned for Jimmy Soup to pull the boat over.
The Queen had just approached, and before the drawbridge could be lowered, the dragon jumped up the iceberg and landed in front of a crying penguin.
"Daifuku, why are you here? What's wrong with everyone?"
Daifuku saw that it was a descending dragon, and immediately fell to his knees with two small short legs.
"General, you're too late! It's dead!"
"What!"
Shocked by the bad news, the dragon descended only to feel that his eyes were black, and a mouthful of sweet breath rushed to his throat. He threw himself on the ice, his round body rolling back and forth, occasionally slapping his white belly with his two fins. Penguins only make such moves when they encounter the most painful things.
So it's not funny, it's really, really painful, remember!
It's a long story.
Ten days ago, the prince's egg was stolen, and His Majesty the Emperor sent a group of henchmen such as the dragon and the tiger to the rescue. His Majesty was eager to save his son, but this caused a void in the palace's defenses.
This deadly information was passed out by the spies and reached the ears of His Majesty the Emperor's younger brother, the ambitious Prince West.
Such a God-given opportunity, how could Prince Xi let it go.
Three days later, Prince Xi colluded with a group of wandering polar bears to kill the palace directly, and with the cooperation of traitors, captured the imperial city. His Majesty the Emperor was forced to commit suicide, and Prince Xi succeeded to the throne.
Every palace coup is followed by a bloody massacre of the old forces, and the penguins are no exception.
Most of the relatives left in the imperial city by the dragon descending general were slaughtered. Because Laifu was only a servant of the dragon family, he escaped and was only driven to the iceberg and exiled.
Most of the nearly 1,000 penguins on this iceberg are survivors of families loyal to the emperor. Everyone was driven out of their homes, and without even a single fish with them, they embarked on the road of no return.
They are accompanied only by an iceberg and are harassed by arctic foxes from time to time. When all the geese were crying in despair, they didn't expect to meet the dragon who had just come back.
The Great General of the Dragon Descending was loyal and martial arts, and his reputation within the Penguin Empire was extremely high. For a while, everyone seemed to have found the backbone, and suddenly a little hope rose.
The dragon descended in the same pain in his heart, but so many geese eagerly waited for him to make an idea, and he did not have the qualifications to be vulnerable at this time. After a moment of thought, the dragon made a request to Jimmy Town, hoping that the Queen could take in all the penguins on the iceberg.
This request was supposed to be made to Sun Xiang, which was Sun Xiang's ship. But the head of Sun Da is in a closed house, and no one wants to see him. And specifically said, whoever comes will be killed with one palm.
Jimmy Soup is in a dilemma, and the Queen has more than a thousand mouths to eat, which is not something he can call the shots. In the end, I had no choice but to ask Ji Yuanyuan to report to Sun Xiang. Because Ji Yuanyuan is a disciple of Sun Xiang, he shouldn't be chopped to death with one palm.
After Ji Yuanyuan reported this matter to the master, Sun Xiang was not closed. All he had to do was go through the secret route map in the ice floe channel, who would have thought that this penguin would have so much to do.
"I have helped you rescue the prince as agreed. When Sun Xiang saw the descending dragon, he opened his mouth to accuse, "Do you still want to help you Kuangfu Han Dynasty return to the old capital now?"
The dragon descending general knew that he was in the wrong, and he lowered his head and remained silent. It wasn't until Sun Da finished complaining that he patiently explained:
"I'm a penguins who tell the truth, and I'm going to take you through the secret passage in the ice floes now. I just hope that these 1,000 or so penguins will give a ride. We ate very little and were able to go into the sea to catch our own fish, so I guess it wasn't too much of a request."
Hearing this, Master Sun's face softened slightly, and he asked, "Where are you going?"
The dragon replied: "The exit of the secret passage is on the north shore of the Thamel Peninsula, where they will be lowered. There are old ministries on the peninsula that are loyal to me. It should be able to protect everyone, as well as the safety of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. ”
Sun Xiang raised his eyebrows and asked, "Listen to what you mean, are you going to leave with us?"
"Nope. The dragon looked in the direction of the imperial city, "I still have to save someone." ”
Because Laifu told the general that his daughter Niuniu was still alive. Niuniu was too young, so Prince Xi didn't kill her. But she was helpless, lonely in the imperial city, she could only ask for food during the day and live in a kennel at night, and she didn't know how many days she could live.
No matter how the dragon descends, Niuniu must be rescued.
Master Sun was very moved when he heard this, because he understood such pain. He originally planned to take out some talisman magic weapons to give to the dragon, but then he thought about it, isn't this the template for the god of war to return to his daughter's kennel, where does the dragon boss need his help.
This is settled, and there will be no further delay. Jimmy Soup lowers the suspension bridge on the Queen and picks up all the penguins on the iceberg.
In the process, the dragon sailed into the distance in a dinghy alone. His figure faded into the sea mist.
