【Chapter 87 - The Big Boat】You stay away from me

Although she fell into the water, Jin Niang is also a person who practices martial arts, and her body is not weak, so when Duan Baiyue and Nan Moxie passed, she had already gotten up and cleaned up, and was about to go to the kitchen to make dinner for everyone.

"Sit." Nanmo said, "There are so many small restaurants outside, I'm afraid that without you, we will starve to death for our group of men." ”

Duan Baiyue also said: "If you are uncomfortable, continue to go back to the house and lie down, the sea water is biting cold." ”

Jin Niang said: "I'm fine, I've seen the prince." ”

Duan Baiyue nodded: "Thank you last night." ”

Jin Niang said: "I fell into the water, the prince saved me, I should thank the prince." ”

Duan Baiyue smiled: "I don't know if you deliberately fell into the water, but I know that you are deliberately pretending to be unconscious, so that the boat can only turn back." ”

Jin Niang said: "Because the prince doesn't seem to want the emperor to leave." ”

Duan Baiyue sat at the stone table and asked, "I heard that you know the Wilderness Cloud Peak?" ”

"It's the name of an island." Jin Niang said, "The island is full of black boulders, and the ground moves from time to time when there is no grass, so it is inaccessible." It's just that at sunset, the sunset in the sky will reflect the surrounding sea in the color of fire, and standing on the island is like standing on the top of the clouds. ”

"So it's called Wilderness Genting?" Duan Baiyue asked, "Where is it?" ”

"I don't know where it is, but I know that in July and August, starting from the wilderness Genting, if it is smooth, no more, no less, you can reach Liulizhou in ten days." Jin Niang said, "And in October and November, you can no longer sail, because the wind and waves are dangerous, even with the most sophisticated black iron giant boat, you can't break through the storm." ”

Duan Baiyue nodded slightly: "Thank you." ”

"I overheard these words when I was serving tea, and Chu Xiang was discussing with people at that time, if he wanted to go to Wilderness Genting regularly every year, what month should he choose, and what kind of business could he do along the way. Liulizhou produces good crystal cups, so it will be specifically mentioned. Jin Niang said, "But after this business, the avatar was not completed, and I didn't hear him mention Liulizhou again." ”

Duan Baiyue said: "It takes ten days to travel from Wilderness Yunding to Liulizhou in July and August. In November, it was difficult to move an inch. Knowing this, you can already deduce its approximate location, as for Liulizhou, Brother Sikong has some trade contacts with it, you can inquire first. ”

Jin Niang said: "The prince is going to the wilderness Yunding? ”

Duan Baiyue said, "I'm going to find something." ”

Jin Niang worried: "Although it is deserted, there should be no heavy guards. But according to Chu Xiang's cautious and suspicious temperament, if something is really put on the top, it should not be open to outsiders to land on the island, and there will definitely be secret posts all over the organs. ”

Duan Baiyue smiled: "This king naturally knows. Anyway, thank you this time, if he really wants to attack the wilderness cloud top one day, maybe he will have to ask for some things. ”

Jin Niang nodded: "But it's sent by the prince." ”

At the market, Duan Yao and Chu Yuan sat by the stall, and one of them asked for a bowl of noodle batter.

Chu Yuan tasted it and felt that being sick was already uncomfortable enough, so why did he force himself to eat this thing.

Duan Yao felt that she needed to explain: "The chef in the Southwest Mansion made it more delicious." "It's not that my brother has a peculiar taste.

After a while, he added: "And after practicing the Bodhicitta Sutra, my brother can't taste anything anymore." ”

Chu Yuan let out a "hmm" and didn't speak again.

"Let's go back." Duan Yao said, "I said earlier, it will really rain on this day. ”

There was a faint thunder in the sky, and black clouds pressed the realm. The small vendors by the sea were busy closing their stalls, and Chu Yuan also took Duan Yao back to the small courtyard.

Nanmo is sleeping under the eaves.

"Master, Master." Duan Yao woke him up, "Why did you fall asleep on the ground." "I don't know how to be decent.

Nanmo yawned: "After looking at the map of the South China Sea for a long time, I am sleepy." ”

"Map of the South China Sea?" Chu Yuan asked, "Why did the seniors look at this?" ”

Nanmo Xie smiled: "Naturally, it is related to the wilderness cloud top, and Jin Niang happens to know something." ”

"Really?" A light flashed in Chu Yuan's eyes.

Nanmo said: "If you are lucky, you may really be able to find Tianchen Sand this time." "I didn't dare to mention these three words before, for fear that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. But now all kinds of clues show that even God can't see that he is helping. Although he has practiced the Bodhicitta Sutra, it is only to make the golden silkworm thread no longer resurrect and devour the bloodline, and his life is saved, but the zombie Gu worm is still entangled in the heart vein, waiting for the next chance to come back from the dead. And once you have the heavenly sand, you can use your internal force to completely force out the golden silkworm thread, and then find a way to get rid of the poison used to subdue the Gu worms in the Bodhicitta Sutra, and after a year and a half of rest, your appearance will slowly recover, and then you will be able to ......

"By then, you'll be the queen's mother!" In the study, Sikong Rui was also holding Duan Baiyue's shoulders, with tears in his eyes, excited, and excited.

King of the Southwest: "......"

"I never expected it." Sikong Rui was full of emotion, and advised, "Tianchensha is here, if you hide from the emperor again, you can't really say it." ”

Duan Baiyue said: "I haven't found it yet." ”

"Do you have to wait for the rice to be cooked before you can sell it for money?" Sikong Rui's head hurts.

Duan Baiyue sighed: "Although this is a bit disrespectful, I have never figured out why Uncle Sikong was unwilling to invite you a master no matter what, no matter when he was a child, no matter how difficult it is to go to school, he will not even know how to fight now." ”

"I'm sorry what's wrong." Sikong Rui said, "If it were me, and the rice was still planted in the ground, I would first go to negotiate the price with the merchant and take the deposit to live a good life, so that I would be worthy of myself." ”

Duan Baiyue said: "Near Liulizhou, is there an island where the army can be hidden?" ”

"Why is this Liulizhou, the problem of rice and rice has not been clarified yet, you have to listen to me this time." Sikong Rui grabbed his arm and said affectionately, "One day, you will be at the head of the harem—"

Duan Baiyue raised her hand and slashed towards his life.

Sikong Rui dodged and kicked over.

The two often fought like this when they were children, and under normal circumstances, Duan Baiyue should take three steps back to avoid it. But by coincidence, Chu Yuan reached out and pushed the door open at this time.

Sikong Rui was shocked, and hurriedly spun in the air, landing steadily on the ground.

Duan Yao asked, "Are you fighting again?" ”

"Naturally, no." Sikong Rui immediately denied it and said, "Brother Duan is so bored, I'll punch him to relieve his boredom." "He is so loyal that he deserves to be rewarded with some brocade gold and silver by the emperor at once.

Duan Yao's chest tightened for a while.

Chu Yuan asked, "Where is the Wilderness Cloud Peak?" ”

Duan Baiyue stretched out her hand to get the South China Sea map on the table, but was preempted by Sikong Rui, and offered it with both hands with a smile on her face.

Duan Baiyue: "......"

"Here?" Chu Yuan put the map on the table and pointed to a place that had been circled by cinnabar.

"Yes." Duan Baiyue nodded, and couldn't help but glance up at him. Chu Yuan had been looking at the map, his eyelashes were very long, and his eyes were very bright.

Sikong Rui took one step back, two steps back, three steps back, and squeezed out the door.

Nanmo took the little apprentice out as well.

Duan Yao said: "Don't make an excuse? ”

"What excuses?" Nanmo closed the door for the two of them and said, "At this moment, you have to make excuses if you want to stay." ”

Duan Yao suddenly said: "Master is right. ”

The two people in the room naturally heard these words, and Duan Baiyue couldn't laugh or cry. Chu Yuan asked, "Are you sure?" ”

"Huh?" Duan Baiyue asked, "What." ”

"The location of the Wilderness Cloud Top." Chu Yuan said, "The location of Tianchensha." ”

"According to the clues given by Jin Niang, this is indeed the Wilderness Cloud Peak." Duan Baiyue said, "But whether it is specific or not, I have to go and investigate again, he has always had trade contacts with Liulizhou, and it is easier to inquire about the news." ”

"Where is your army?" Chu Yuan asked again.

Duan Baiyue pointed to the map.

"Here?" Chu Yuan said, "How many people?" ”

Duan Baiyue said: "Five thousand." ”

Chu Yuan frowned: "Is it enough?" ”

"It's naturally not enough to deal with Chu Xiang, but if it's only used to deal with Wilderness Yunding, it's enough." Duan Baiyue said, "This group of people are dead soldiers, their kung fu is very high, and they are also masters of using poison. ”

Chu Yuan said: "I don't want to make another mistake in this operation, so I really don't need the Great Chu Navy?" ”

Duan Baiyue said: "I don't want to make a mistake either, so don't worry." ”

Chu Yuan asked again, "What about the plan?" ”

Duan Baiyue replied: "I plan to let Yao'er go and bring the Southwest Army here first, and as for Brother Sikong, I just want to go to Liulizhou during this time." If it is a qiē shun lì, it should be able to break through the wilderness cloud top within two months and get the ...... Celestial sand. In the end, the voice was a little quieter.

Chu Yuan only said, "Okay." ”

Duan Baiyue kept looking at him.

Chu Yuan stood up and did not make eye contact with him: "Now that the plan has been decided, I will go back first." ”

Duan Baiyue said: "It's raining." ”

Chu Yuan said: "It's just a rain. ”

Duan Baiyue's lips moved, and she said, "Take a good rest." ”

Chu Yuan smiled and turned around and went back to the bedroom.

Duan Yao wiped the rain from his face, turned his head to look at the equally wet master, and the wet Sikong brother

"Brother Duan, can you do it?" It was incomprehensible to Sikong Rui, in this stormy and stormy weather, that the Venerable Master was relieved to leave alone. If the book was written like this, it is estimated that the bookseller would be poor enough to sell pants in three days.

The little apprentice of Nanmo Evil School dragged his cheeks and squatted on the roof and sighed.

If I knew this was the case, I might as well go back and get some sleep.

Two days later, Duan Yao left the country by boat and traveled day and night to transfer the garrison. Sikong Rui also boarded the merchant ship and went to Liulizhou under the pretext of doing business - this time he did not take the washboard with him, and left all of them in the small courtyard in case of emergency.

Nanmo didn't see anyone day in day, and he didn't know what he was doing. Jin Niang was worried that she would be recognized by Chu Xiang's people, and she didn't go out of the door, so after cooking for everyone, she went back to the room to make clothes and think about her son, and her face was not revealed.

Chu Yuan often goes to the beach, and most of the time he doesn't do anything, just looking at the clouds and birds in the sky and thinking about something.

Duan Baiyue didn't know whether she should look for it or not, and sometimes when she looked for it, she just watched and guarded it from afar. He sat all day, and he stood and watched all day, until the twilight was dull and the stars hung down on the sea.

The accompanying guards saw the clue and no longer reported the matter to Chu Yuan. The people on this island are simple, and the days are passing day by day, but they are also passing very fast.

The merchant ships heading to Xingzhou will enter and leave the port as usual, and Chu Yuan estimated the number of livestock and logs on it from a distance, and he didn't pay too much attention to it.

"But do you want to go up and have a look?" Duan Baiyue asked behind him.

Chu Yuan said: "What's the matter, you are willing to show up today?" ”

Duan Baiyue shook off the cloak in the crook of his arm and wrapped him tightly: "It's going to be windy, don't catch a cold." ”

"There's no need to get on the boat to check it, and you can't see anything in this boat or two." Chu Yuan said, "Besides, they are all necessary items for life, even if he builds Xingzhou magnificently, the army's warships and gunpowder are the things that should be concerned the most." ”

Duan Baiyue said: "Xingzhou is still a desert island now, and the gunpowder of the army warships will not be delivered until a few more years. ”

"Then we'll talk about it in a few years." Chu Yuan jumped off the reef and was about to go back, but a guard hurriedly came to report, saying that on a small island not far from the mirror country, a merchant ship appeared mysteriously, and the flag should be the merchant ship of Da Chu.

"Which island?" Chu Yuan asked.

"Desert Island." The guard said, "It was our people who accidentally discovered it during their daily inspections, and they only looked at it from a distance, and it seemed that there was no one on it, so they felt a little strange, so they came back first to tell the emperor." ”

"Could it be a pirate encounter?" Chu Yuan asked.

"There should be no pirates in this area." Duan Baiyue said, "I'll take a look." ”

Chu Yuan said: "I will go too." ”

The guards were worried: "Your Majesty, that ship is really evil, so let's let my subordinates go down." ”

"It's just a merchant ship, no matter how strange it is." Chu Yuan said, "How far is it from here?" ”

"Sail the fast boat for two hours." The guard said.

"Let's go." Chu Yuan ordered, "Leave immediately." ”

The guards received the order and went to the beach to prepare first. Duan Baiyue asked, "Why do you have to go by yourself?" ”

"Fang Cai Xiaodao said that it is the merchant ship of Da Chu." Chu Yuan said, "If the merchants above are shipwrecked, I will naturally take them home, so as not to be alone." ”

Duan Baiyue asked, "What if it's a trap?" ”

Chu Yuan said: "If there is a trap above, you have to take a look." If it is ignored, at most two days and three days, the fishermen on this island will find the boat, and no matter what is on it at that time, once there is a mess, this account will be credited to Da Chu, and in the future, the caravan of Chu will not be so easy to cross the port. ”

Duan Baiyue said: "It's the same when I go to see it." ”

"Where's the same?" Chu Yuan glanced at him and said, "Unless you want to seek a usurpation of the throne, what does the matter of Great Chu have to do with you?" ”

Duan Baiyue: "......"

Chu Yuan turned around and went to the reef by himself.

Duan Baiyue sighed in her heart and naturally followed.

There were a few clippers parked in the reef pile, and in the deep twilight, they found a waterway that was usually uninhabited, and the group soon arrived on the desert island. This night coincided with the full moon, illuminating the four seas in a silvery white and bright light, without wind or waves, and the ships swayed slightly. And in the secluded silence, the huge ship moored on the shore of the desert island is a little numb in people's hearts - this kind of merchant ship is not uncommon in the sea, usually from the very powerful merchant gang, there are at least hundreds of people on it, it is very lively on weekdays, even if it is a continuous voyage of several months, the deck is always laughing and laughing and singing melodious, where can there be such a quiet appearance.

Duan Baiyue said: "I'll take a look." ”

Chu Yuan frowned: "The ship and flag are not damaged, it doesn't look like a shipwreck." ”

"It's also possible that it's a pirate." Duan Baiyue said, "No matter what it is, you will know when you see it." ”

Chu Yuan grabbed his wrist as soon as he grabbed it.

Duan Baiyue was a little surprised.

Chu Yuan was a little uncomfortable, and said in a low voice: "Let's talk about it tomorrow." ”

"If someone really cheats, it is easier for the other party to find out during the day." Duan Baiyue said, "I'm measured, don't worry." ”

Chu Yuan still refused to let go.

The guards all stood at the bow of the boat, looking ahead in tacit understanding, and none of them looked back.

"This Nanyang will not stop in the first place, even if it is just a little thing, after Chu Xiang knows about it, he may not be able to turn over the storm." Duan Baiyue said, "After reading it, you are at ease, and I am also at ease." ”

Chu Yuan said: "The purpose of this trip is to find Tianchensha. ”

"Hmm." Duan Baiyue gently scraped his cheek with his gloved right hand.

Chu Yuan frowned and turned his head sideways, and the roots of his ears turned red.

Duan Baiyue smiled, turned around and stepped across the sea, and went to the desert island alone.

Chu Yuan's heart secretly picked up, staring at the hideous giant ship, and his brows did not stretch for a moment.

It didn't seem like there was an ambush around, Duan Baiyue easily boarded the huge ship, listened intently for a moment, and after making sure that there was really no one, he took out a pearl from his arms to illuminate it, and carefully searched it one by one.

Although the furnishings in the cabin were a little messy, no belongings were lost, and even a stack of silver tickets was thrown on the ground, obviously not a pirate. But such a huge merchant ship, sailing well on the sea, why would the people who would go up suddenly disappear, not even bringing soft belongings?

Duan Baiyue frowned, and went into the next cabin, there were a lot of account books on the table, and after opening it, he took a general look, it was a merchant gang from Huizhou, doing some porcelain business, and it was no different.

Walking one level further, Duan Baiyue suddenly stopped. There was a strange smell in the air—the smell of death, and a strong smell of medicine, mixed together, and the smell was disgusting.

Referring to what she had seen before, Duan Baiyue suddenly understood a little in her heart, put Mingzhu back in her arms, and instead dismantled a wooden board, lit a blazing torch, and raised her foot to kick open the wooden door in front of her.

The stench rushed to the face, and the huge cabin was full of corpses, and I couldn't tell how long it had been floating at sea before it ran aground on this deserted island with the current.

There was a sound of footsteps behind him, and Duan Baiyue turned around suddenly.

Chu Yuan was standing behind him.

Duan Baiyue's expression changed, and he didn't have time to explain more, he reached out to cover his mouth and nose, stepped on the string of the boat, fell to the ground with him, and ran forward for a while.

"Do what?" Chu Yuan broke away from him, a little annoyed.

"Stay away from me." Duan Baiyue said.

Chu Yuan: "......"

You repeat?

Duan Baiyue threw him a bottle of pills, and took a few steps back: "Eat this, the people on that ship are bad for the plague, look at the account records, let alone have died for three months, let's light a fire as soon as possible." ”
