A night storm blew the "Lingfei Treasure Ship" from the northern end of Haizhong Continent to the southern end, more than 300 miles away, and now, the "Lingfei Treasure Boat" must return to the northern end of Haizhong Continent to find the whereabouts of the Xinzhou County Prince, as for whether the Southern Han prince is alive or dead, General Qi does not care at all. (Eye to the book)

  The four Fenghua sergeants had already gone to the island to investigate, and General Qi sat on the chariot and waited for news on the bow of the ship, while watching the Southern Han craftsmen renovate the bow tower destroyed by the storm.

  It was dusk, the sunset was molten gold, and the western sea flashed with ten thousand rays of light, and at this moment, I suddenly heard someone on the other side of the stern shouting: "It's on fire!" It's on fire! ”

  When General Qi looked back, he saw thick smoke billowing into the sky, and he was shocked, and hurriedly ordered the sergeant to carry him to see, but the kitchen under the stern was accidentally on fire, and the sailors and boatmen worked together to extinguish the fire, which was quickly extinguished.

  General Qi sternly reprimanded the ship supervisor, the natural disaster has been resisted, don't destroy it on the **!

  After a while, the sergeant who had gone to investigate the island returned, saying that it was a desert island, with only flocks of seabirds, and no human tracks, and that there was a spring on the island that could be drunk.

  The Lingfei treasure ship suffered a lot of losses after last night's storm, especially fresh water, four of the ten large water tanks were broken, and a lot of fresh water was wasted before fighting the fire, and some fresh water must be replenished, so General Qi ordered six small boats to go to the island to get water together.

  The sentry in charge of the lookout shouted again: "General Qi, there is smoke over there, northeast, about fifteen miles away." ”

  General Qi shook his eyebrows, and suddenly thought that this could be a message from the county prince, the county prince must have seen the smoke of the Lingfei treasure ship just now, so he thought of burning the smoke for help, and immediately said loudly: "Immediately move towards the northeast." Don't be in a hurry to get water, it's important to find the county magistrate. ”

  Six small boats were hoisted up, in the twilight, the lonely Lingfei treasure ship Zhang Fan sailed in the northwest direction, sailed out of more than ten miles, the sky was completely dark, General Qi ordered the high mast to hang the light, so that it could be seen from a distance, and then ordered the small boat to search in all directions, tossing until midnight. Nothing was gained, and when she reported to Princess Qingle, Princess Qingle lost her temper and said that if she didn't find the county prince of Xinzhou, she would punish General Qi for his crimes.

  General Qi was so anxious that his mouth was full of foam, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Your Royal Highness the princess, you will definitely be able to find the county prince, Lin Duhu is still waiting for the county prince to go to Jiangzhou to marry the second lady, and the county prince will definitely return safely." ”

  When Princess Qingle heard General Qi say this, she snorted and said, "What else do you want to marry?" Hurry up and find someone, if you can't find someone, watch your head! ”

  General Qi went to ask the sentry again, did he really see the lonely smoke in this direction? The sentry swore that he had seen a puff of black smoke rise before it was dark. You can't be mistaken.

  General Qi ordered the boat to search again, and waited for the dawn to find people in the vast sea at night!

  Under the persuasion of several eunuchs, Princess Qingle returned to the cabin to rest.

  Seeing the princess's unhappy appearance, Gong E Fangcha quietly comforted: "Your Highness." Seon lost his horse, how do you know if it's a blessing? It is best that the prince of the Southern Han Dynasty drowned, His Royal Highness does not have to go to the Southern Han Dynasty, wouldn't it be good for us to go back to Jinling? ”

  Princess Qingle widened her eyes, poked Fang Cha's head with her right index finger, and reproached: "You think you are smart, but have you thought about it, that fat pig drowned." Didn't my cousin die too, they were in the same boat! ”

  Fangcha's head was poked by Princess Qingle's sharp nails, and she didn't dare to dodge, and said in her heart: "The princess usually hates the prince of the Southern Han Dynasty, but now she doesn't want the prince of the Southern Han Dynasty to die, it seems that the princess really likes Zhou Jungong!" Hurriedly said: "Zhou Jungong will definitely not drown." Because—because Zhou Jungong was not as fat as the prince of the Southern Han Dynasty. ”

  Princess Qingle thought for a moment. Reasonable, the best result is that the prince of the Southern Han Dynasty drowned. And she declared that her cousin was safe and sound—

  At this time, an unknown Gong E refuted Fang Cha's words: "Your Highness, it is said that obese people are more likely to float in the water." ”

  When Princess Qingle heard this, her face changed, if Cousin Xuan drowned, and Prince Snow Pig did not die, it would be really miserable to the extreme, I can't imagine it!

  The next day, that is, on August 11, Princess Qingle was still asleep, so she heard from Gong'e to report that General Qi asked to see her. ^

  Princess Qingle knew that there was new news, so she got up quickly and came out without washing.

  General Qi was still carried by the two government soldiers, and said excitedly: "Your Royal Highness Princess Qiqi, black smoke has reappeared in the northwest direction, and I have ordered the big ship to rush to the place where the smoke started with all my might." ”

  Princess Qingle hurriedly finished freshening up and went up to the deck, just in time to hear the sentry on the lookout report loudly: "Lord Qi, there is an island in front of you, and black smoke is coming out of the island." ”

  General Qi immediately ordered people to go to inspect, but the big ship did not dare to get too close, for fear of the reef near the shore. (Eye to the book)

  General Qi watched from a distance as the four government soldiers boarded the island in a small boat, which was slightly larger than the small island yesterday and was densely wooded, and saw that the four government soldiers seemed to hear something, and suddenly quickened their pace and ran into the forest on the island.

  After about a stick of incense, a government soldier rushed out of the forest, shouting something to the side of the big boat, far away, unable to hear it at all, and gesturing, it should mean that someone was injured and needed treatment.

  General Qi hurriedly sent Imperial Physician Fang, and he took two government soldiers to the boat with Imperial Physician Fang to see it in person.

  Princess Qingle asked loudly, "General Qi, have you found Zhou Jungong?" ”

  General Qi responded: "Maybe it's the county princess, I don't know who was injured, I'm afraid it's inconvenient to move, so let Dr. Fang go to the island for treatment, don't worry about it, go and have a look." ”

  Princess Qingle shouted, "I'll go too." ”

  General Qi said: "Your Royal Highness the princess, don't go, for fear of danger, after going to the island, I will order someone to come back and report to Your Highness." With that, the sculls rowed, and the boat sailed to the island.

  Princess Qingle held the side of the boat and watched the two government soldiers carry General Qi to abandon the boat and land on the shore, Dr. Fang followed behind with a medicine box on his back, and the four of them walked towards the woods on the island, and the government soldier who was gesturing to report the news ran back to the forest early, as if the matter was urgent. After a long while, I didn't see General Qi and them come out, and Princess Qingle said worriedly: "What's the matter." Could it be that Cousin Xuan is seriously injured? - Put the boat on the boat, I want to go to the island. ”

  A Jin Wuwei joined the army and advised: "Your Highness, don't leave the ship, wait a while, and General Qi will send someone back to report the news." ”

  "It's coming, it's coming!" Cumin cried out: "Look, princess, there's someone over there!" ”

  Princess Qingle hurriedly ran to the side of the board to look in the direction of the island, and sure enough, she saw a person dressed as a soldier running to the edge of the island, getting on the boat, rowing hard, and soon came to the big boat. For some reason, his face was bloody, and he shouted hoarsely: "Your Royal Highness Princess, General Qi asked Her Royal Highness the Princess to hurry up and go to the island, the prince of the Southern Han Dynasty is seriously injured!" ”

  Princess Qingle asked, "Is Zhou Jungong good?" ”

  The soldiers on the ship were stunned for a moment, and responded: "Zhou Jungong is also injured, please get off the boat quickly, I'm afraid that I won't be able to see the last one if it's too late." ”

  "Ahh Everyone on the big boat was shocked, and cumin suddenly burst into tears, calling "Auntie, auntie", and asked the boatman to lift her off the boat.

  Princess Qingle was so flustered that she couldn't do it. got off the boat with Fang Cha, but Jin Wuwei couldn't stop the army, so he hurriedly put down another boat and led four Jin Wuwei down to the boat to prepare to escort the princess to the island. But I saw that the boat carrying Princess Qingle, Fangcha, and cumin had rowed to the shore of the island, and soon went to the island.

  The five Jin Wuwei rowed hard and rushed to the island, but there was no trace of Princess Qingle, so they hurriedly went into the dense forest to find it. Shouted loudly: "Princess, princess." "I faintly heard someone shouting something from the depths of the jungle.

  The five Jin Wuwei quickened their pace and ran towards the depths of the woods, and when they ran out of the way, the shout was clear, it was the voice of General Qi's subordinate soldiers - "Come on, pull me out, there is a trap here." ”

  The five Jin Wuwei took out their waist knives and continued to follow the sound, bypassing a small hill and seeing a big pit two feet deep, General Qi and Imperial Doctor Fang. **There are also six government soldiers inside, and there are also thistles at the bottom of the pit, one by one they were pierced and bleeding, and the injuries were not light, and the doctor was bandaging them to stop the bleeding, and he himself was stabbed in multiple places.

  Jin Wuwei, who was in the lead, joined the army and asked in surprise: "General Qi, why are you all here?" What about Her Royal Highness the Princess? ”

  General Qi listened. Surprised: "Oh no. Fooled, it turns out that their purpose is to kidnap the princess! ”

  That Jin Wuwei joined the army and exclaimed: "Her Royal Highness the princess only waited half a cup of tea before me to go to the island. How-"

  General Qi hurriedly shouted: "Chase, chase, there must be enemy ships moored on the island, and they must not be allowed to take the princess!" ”

  That Jin Wuwei joined the army and left one person to try to rescue General Qi and they came up, and sent another person to move troops to the big ship, and he led the remaining two people to rush towards the eastern end of the island, just to catch up with the princess, desperately deal with the enemy, and wait for the reinforcements to arrive.

  This island is not big, only three miles from west to east, when the three of Jin Wuwei and the army walked into the east end of the island, they saw a fifteen-zhang sea ship slowly sailing, ready to set sail, the deck was red and gorgeous, and a few sturdy servants were holding Princess Qingle and Fangcha and cumin hostage to the cabin.

  "Phew!" Jin Wuwei joined the army and shouted angrily: "Who are you waiting for, who dares to rob the princess of Tang Kingdom?" ”

  A thin old monk wearing a red monk's robe stood on the stern tower, and laughed loudly: "Lao Qu is the protector monk under the throne of the eight kings of Zhongtian, and his legal name is Jingquan, so I bother this general to send a letter, saying that the king of our country has married the princess and returned to China, and there is no need to worry about it, when the princess and the king of our country give birth to a boy and half a girl, I will go to Jinling to see His Majesty the Tang Emperor, hahahaha." ”

  "Monk Jingquan!" Jin Wuwei on the shore was taken aback when he joined the army, Monk Jingquan is the national teacher of the Eight Kingdoms of Zhongtian, and he is the think tank of Zhang Sheng, assisting Zhang Yuxian and Zhang Sheng's father and son.

  The sails on three sides had been raised, and the ships had begun to sail north away from the shore of the island.

  Jin Wuwei joined the army and ran to chase after him on the shore, and asked loudly: "Master Jingquan, my Tang Kingdom and the Eight Kingdoms of Zhongtian have never interacted with each other and do not interfere with each other, why did the master design to kidnap my Tang Kingdom princess, are you not afraid of the two countries facing each other?" ”

  The thin old monk Jing Quan laughed and said: "Liu Shousu is mediocre and absurd, and his body is as fat as a pig, how can he be worthy of Princess Qingle, who is known as the first beauty in the Tang Kingdom!" And the king of our country is young and handsome, wise and brave, and the princess is a good couple, Lao Qu married the princess of Tang for my king, just to avoid the two countries from fighting, Lao Qu will not hurt your country alone, and it is precisely because the two countries want to marry Qin and Jin——"

  "Ah, grab a kiss!"

  Jin Wuwei joined the army and ran in a hurry, but he tripped over a stone under his feet and fell. When he got up, the sea ship of the whole land of Seng Jing was dozens of feet away, and he could only watch Princess Qingle being taken away.

  Zhou Xuan took a nap on the boat, and when he woke up, it was already dawn, but he saw that the blue sky was like a wash, the sea water was blue, and the flat boat was a leaf, floating uninhibitedly.

  The four idiots stood on the bow of the ship, looking north, and could not see the shadow of the land. When he looked down and saw that Zhou Xuan had woken up, he said, "Master, I don't know how far this place is from Haizhongzhou?" Now that the wind is blowing from the southwest, the boat will drift farther away from the shore. ”

  Lin Ji frowned and said, "It's a pity that the oars were lost, otherwise if you row north, you will always reach the shore." ”

  Zhou Xuan sat up, turned his back and touched the wound on the back of his shoulder, grinned in pain, and said, "Oars? Yes. ”

  "Where?" The four idiots and Lin Ji asked in unison, looking left and right on the boat. The original two oars have been lost, where are they?

  Zhou Xuan patted the side of the ship: "Isn't it just to dismantle the two gangways and come down." ”

  Lin Ji patted his head and said happily: "The county prince is wise, how can the last general not think of it!" ”

  The four idiots glanced at Zhou Xuan. sighed: "The master is really smart. ”

  Zhou Xuan said modestly: "It's not very smart, but I dare to think." ”

  The four idiots and Lin Ji worked together, and after a while, they removed two five-foot-long and five-inch-wide gangways, and the four idiots were skillful and sharpened with a short knife. It is made in the shape of a wooden handle for easy gripping.

  Zhou Xuan looked at the four idiots cutting the oars, then looked at the faces of the four idiots, and said, "Fourth, your face is so white today." ”

  The four idiots were taken aback, and quickly touched their faces, but it was a thin layer of salt, soaked in the sea all night, and now the sea water is dry. A fine layer of salt frost is left on the face.

  The four idiots turned their backs, took care of their own oars, and said, "The master is also white." ”

  Zhou Xuan looked at the thin back of the four idiots, and said with a smile: "Yes, we are all a lot whiter and tenderer, and the sea water nourishes the skin." Prince Liu and the shopkeeper are even more snow-white and cute. Ha ha. ”

  When the Snow Pig Prince saw Zhou Xuan saying that he was cute, he actually laughed. Suddenly, he frowned and said, "Officer Zhou, this shopkeeper is in a hurry, how can this be good?" ”

  Zhou Xuan said: "Hold on, this boat is so small, how can you be congratulated!" ”

  The Snow Pig Prince twisted his fat body, moved his big buttocks around, and begged: "It's been holding it for a long time, and if you hold it any longer, you'll be incontinent." ”

  The four idiots did not look back and said, "Then you will jump into the sea and die, so as not to pollute the ship." ”

  The Snow Pig Prince looked at Zhou Xuan with pity, looking flattering.

  It is still useful to leave the life of the snow pig prince, Zhou Xuan endured his disgust, and said with a smile: "Didn't Mr. Fourth instruct you, let you go to the sea to pay tribute, climb the side of the boat, and come up after you are done." ”

  The Snow Pig Prince's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly helped the side of the boat to go into the water-

  The four idiots came over, tied the rope hook in a knot, put it on the fat neck of the Snow Pig Prince, and then pushed him away from the boat, and hooked the three-claw hook on the side of the boat.

  The Snow Pig Prince was so frightened that he couldn't possess his body, fluttering in the water, and howling like a pig: "Help me, save me, Zhou Keguan save me-"

  The four idiots frowned and said, "Stay away from the ship, don't stink us." "H handed a sharpened ^H oar to Lin Ji, and began to sharpen the other oar.

  Zhou Xuan said to the prince of the snow pig in the water: "Shopkeeper Liu, hurry up and solve the internal emergency, don't you wear a collar around your neck, and I will pull you back after the incident." ”

  After the oars were sharpened, the four idiots and Lin Ji began to row to the north with an oar, both of them were martial arts, although they had not rowed before, but after rowing for a while, they mastered the skills of rowing, the boat traveled quite fast on the calm sea, rowed about ten or twenty miles in an hour, but the mouth was very dry, and the boat was unobstructed, the sun was shining, and it was very uncomfortable.

  By the evening, the boat had advanced seventy or eighty miles to the northwest, but there was no shadow of the land, and the halberd with big shoulders and round waist and powerful strength could not bear it, and the sore arms were unbearable, and it was difficult to raise the arms.

  Only the four idiots were still gritting their teeth and paddling one by one, muttering fiercely: "I don't believe that I can't get to the shore!" ”

  Zhou Xuan said: "Fourth, take a break, I'll row." ”

  The four idiots said: "No, I'm not tired." ”

  Zhou Xuan saw that his vest was wet with a large piece, and it was rare for a master like the Four Idiots to sweat, unless he was really tired, he immediately took off his oars and shouted: "Rest!" Paddle again at night and don't get dehydrated. ”

  The Snow Pig Prince suddenly shouted, "Look." Look, there's smoke over there! ”

  Zhou Xuan and the three of them looked up together and looked in the direction of the Snow Pig Prince, and sure enough, they saw a black smoke rising up from the north direction, which should be fifteen miles away from the rough eye.

  Zhou Xuanxi said: "This should be the ship that came to search and rescue us, lighting fireworks so that we can see - who has a fire fold?" ”

  Lin Ji took out the fire fold from his arms, but it couldn't be burned, and he was soaked in seawater overnight, where would it be useful!

  Zhou Xuan expects the four idiots to ignite the fire, doesn't it mean that the master grabs a piece of wood and rubs his palms to spontaneously combust without fire?

  The four idiots spread their hands and asked, "Where did the master hear that?" I don't have that ability! ”

  "It's okay if you don't smoke. It was dark, and we couldn't see the smoke, and we rowed over not far away. Zhou Xuan said, grabbed an oar, endured the pain of the shoulder injury, and rowed hard.

  The Snow Pig Prince said excitedly, "I don't know which boat it is?" It should be the princess's Lingfei, haha, we're saved! ”

  The four idiots moved their sore and uncomfortable arms, and looked at Zhou Xuan for a while. The bloody scabbed wound on the shoulder ruptured again, oozing blood, and quickly snatched Zhou Xuan's oar, and said, "The master is injured." Let me do it. ”

  Zhou Xuan said: "Don't row too quickly, the smoke is not far from us, just look at the direction and row over, we will definitely be rescued." After that, he leaned on the side of the boat to rest, but saw the Snow Pig Prince take out an unknown delicacy from his arms and stuff it into his mouth to chew. Did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince expect that the boat would capsize and hide so much food in his arms?

  Zhou Xuan saw that Lin Ji was rowing very reluctantly, and it was estimated that his hands were cramping, so he said: "Liu Shousu, you know that you are lazy to eat, and now it's time to make some efforts, you can row a ride-"

  The Snow Pig Prince puffed out his cheeks and said, "This shopkeeper - this shopkeeper won't." ”

  Zhou Xuan asked, "Then what will you do?" ”

  Prince Snow Pig said: "I am the grandson of the Jade Emperor, I don't need to do anything, I have someone to serve." ”

  The four idiots said angrily: "Throw this pig's head into the sea earlier." The boat is also much lighter and lighter, and the rowing is not tiring. ”

  Zhou Xuandao: "Forget it, a good person will do it to the end and send the Buddha to the western sky." ”

  Prince Snow Pig said gratefully: "Zhou Keguan, you are really a good person, following Zhou Keguan, this shopkeeper feels very dependent——"

  "Wow, wow, wow!" Zhou Xuan shouted: "Don't say it." I haven't eaten since noon yesterday. There's nothing to vomit about, don't hurt me! ”

  The Snow Pig Prince quickly shut up. looked at Zhou Xuan with a resentful face.

  When the sky is full of stars, the boat has rowed through the fifteen-mile waterway, the moon has come out, reflecting the silver snake on the sea, the sea and the sky are silent, there is no sound in the four places, even if the sea is not windy and waves, there is a deep, grand sound, which makes people awe-inspiring.

  However, there were no other ships on the sea except for Zhou Xuan's small boat.

  The four idiots were puzzled: "What's the matter?" It's smoke in this direction, why is there nothing? ”

  Zhou Xuan's hands were in the shape of trumpets, and he roared a few times to the north and west, and the sound on the sea did not spread far, and soon disappeared into the heavy waves.

  Zhou Xuan hadn't drunk water for a day and a night, his throat was so dry that he was smoking, and after shouting a few times, he coughed dryly, and said: "It's dark, it's not far away, let's slowly row north, wait for dawn." ”

  After rowing more than ten miles in the direction of the North Star, the four idiots had good eyesight and said in surprise: "It seems that there is land in front, a large area of black and swarthy." ”

  The other three were in high spirits, and they slashed towards the swarthy expanse.

  After rowing for seven or eight miles, the four idiots said: "It's an island, so I don't know if there are people living there." ”

  Zhou Xuan said: "It's good to go to the island, you can always find saliva to drink, haha, this little life, it's half of it back." ”
