It was already late at night, and the lights on the ship were bright, and from a distance, it looked like a fire burning on the sea, subtlely embedded in the sea, and flowing with the sea. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Xiang Yiming stood on the deck with a little dry lips, he looked at the red horse boats patrolling back and forth, and on each red horse boat there was a soldier in armor carrying a lamp in the sea water to watch carefully.

In front of the main ship of more than 100 feet, these red horse boats that patrolled back and forth seemed extremely small.

"Safety.."

"Safety.."

The patrolling warriors tore their throats and shouted at the soldiers with large bows on the ship's turret, their voices filled with the whistling sea breeze.

He licked his lips with his tongue, some of the wet saliva fell on his lips and became sticky, and as the sea breeze brushed his hair, he squinted at the bow and stern arrow towers of the bow and arrows.

He couldn't help but be a little curious about the appearance of the merman, which made the soldiers of Chu so cautious, and he had also heard about the merman in the market of Yueguo.

Storytellers in the market often say that the mermaids live together as tribes, and a medium mermaid tribe has thousands of people, and their nests are all woven from seaweed. Thousands of nests are connected in the sea, forming a large city-state clan.

"Tears in the eyes.."

Xiang Yiming muttered in a low voice, and he couldn't help but think of the half-finished pearls sold by the vendors in the market.

Tuoba Qian was very fond of such small toys, although most pearls were dull and extremely fragile, and were worthless things.

But whenever Tuoba Qian took the shark beads from the merchant's hands, she had to look at the light carefully, and she often said to Xiang Yiming and Qingya: "What I hold in my hand is a story, a story wrapped in pearls." ”

Probably a little sleepy, Xiang Yiming let out a long yawn, turned around and landed lightly on the deck, walking towards his room.

After a few steps, a whistle panicked voice came from the red horse boat patrolling back and forth beside the ship: "It's a merman, there is a merman in front." ”

The sound was like a block of steel shattering a blue crystal, and it spread through the air with a heaviness.

The sound of the horns on the watchtowers of each ship immediately rang out in a hurry, and the whimpering scattered into the sea.

Xiang Yiming hurriedly ran to the side of the deck, looked at it, and countless mermaids a hundred meters away from the ship jumped out of the sea, splashing pieces of seawater dripping into the sea, causing Xu Xu ripples to intersect and crochet together.

The surface of the sea was like a broken blue crystal, and the shaking ripples formed a broken scar, and the merman's body jumped out of the sea as soon as there was a vague shadow, and after a while, the shadow overlapped with the body again.

"Archers prepare."

Urgent cheers rang out from all the ships, Shen Ling ran through his armor and back, he walked to Xiang Yiming's side with the saber at his waist in his right hand, glanced at Xiang Yiming and staggered, looked into the distance, frowned and muttered: "A hundred meters away is their waters." ”

"The Nangong team that will scout is coming, I want to ask him!"

The hoarse and thick voice was shouted out by Shen Ling, and he turned around and grabbed a soldier behind him.

"Yes."

When the soldier looked at Shen Ling, he hurriedly lowered his head, holding the heavy sword at his waist, and the hot voice was hurriedly drunk by him, and when Shen Ling's hand was released, he immediately turned around and jumped along the ship's cable to Chima Prefecture.

The red horse boats carried the firelight back and forth on the sea, and a scout bowed and told Shen Ling, who was always frowning, the news of the arrival without reservation.

"Nangong Mo, take your people and continue to explore!"

Shen Ling waved his hand, his gaze moving with the merman who jumped out of the name, his hands folded together and pressed on the heavy sword.

"General, it's the Black Scaled Shark, should we go around it? ”

Nangong Mo, who was in the official ranks, clasped the cross bow on his waist with one hand, walked a few steps and stopped, and looked solemnly at Shen Ling Xiaosuo's back.

"It will take half a month like this, and it will take too long to get around!"

Shen Ling shook his head, controlled the heavy sword pressed on the deck with both hands, stretched out a hand and waved it back, and said in a calm tone: "Go down, explore again!"

"Yes"

The slightly helpless words were spit out, the Nangong Mo hurriedly turned around, and the other scout hurriedly ran up again, lowering his head and panting a little.

"Black-scaled merman?"

Xiang Yiming looked at the scouts coming and going, he couldn't help but be a little interested, and silently thought about the appearance of the black-scaled merman in his heart.

"General Shen, have you met a merman? Why is there such a disturbance?"

A thin and lazy voice came from the cabin, Li Qi was wearing a thick fox fur, the soft and shiny plush was slightly blown away by the sea breeze, he pulled the scarf around his neck, and slowly walked to Shen Ling's side.

"Hmm"

Shen Ling put away the heavy sword in his hand, and he and Xiang Yiming saluted Li Qi who was beside him.

"Does General Shen know how many sharks there are?"

Li Qi put his hands behind his back, his gaze moved over the scouts coming and going, and his tone was calm. He seemed to think that it was normal for the fleet to meet the merman.

"About two thousand people!" Shen Ling turned his face sideways to look at Li Qi, who was always calm, and his heart couldn't help but be interested in this prince of the Yue Kingdom.

"Two thousand?"

The words seemed to be shattered, softly and slowly. Li Qi turned to look at the archers on the bow and stern arrow towers, and began to turn the jade wrench between his fingers with his hands behind his back, his eyes narrowed into a line: "General Shen is sure? The mermaids hate us people who live on land!"

"In front of you is the black-scaled merman, but you should know that the one on the arrow tower is the feather man. Their bows and arrows are fierce and accurate, and if the other person nods, the bow and arrow will be inserted into their bodies. ”

Shen Ling turned around, and his eyes flickered as he observed the wrench that was constantly being turned, and pointed at the archer on the arrow tower.

"Legend has it that every Yu clan is born to be a good archer, and it is just a piece of cake to wear Yang for a hundred miles. ”

Li Qi let go of the hand behind his back, looked back and smiled at Shen Ling, and then walked towards the cabin, and an indifferent tone came: "It's just that General Shen, I don't want to take risks, even if the arrow tower is a pure-blooded feather clan." ”

"Does the prince mean to tell us to go around?"

Shen Ling looked at Li Qi's back and slowly spoke, his words stretched slender in the sea breeze.

"Is General Shen absolutely sure?"

After a pause, Li Qi gathered the fox fur draped on his body, sighed, and muttered to himself: "The wind on the sea is really cold!"

Without answering, Shen Ling looked at Li Qi who walked into the cabin, he picked up the heavy sword pressed on the deck, looked into the distance, and said to a soldier beside him: "Send a signal, tell them to turn the bow of the ship and go around." ”

"Yes."

The soldier behind him bowed in reply, and the sound of gold rang out, and an arrow with phosphorus powder rushed into the sky, and the phosphorus powder rubbed against the cold air currents and gave a dazzling light.

Xiang Yiming found that the hull of the ship began to rotate slowly when the sound of gold sounded, and the red horse boats slowly tightened.

He exhaled a sigh of loss in his somewhat cold hands, and somehow felt a sense of loss rise in his heart, and after saluting Shen Ling, he walked slowly into the cabin.
