Volume 5 Absurd Southern Han XXXV, the princess is strong

In the southern tip of the sea in the middle of the continent, the eight kingdoms of Zhongtian, the Han Kingdom, the Wu Yue Kingdom, the seven sea ships of the three countries compete to chase, the arrows are whizzing, the archers on the sea ships of the three countries have used rockets to attack, the so-called rocket, is to tie the arrow by rosin, grease, sulfur, black powder mixed into the projectile, with a longer range of the "slightly bow" to shoot to the enemy ship, the projectile will be violently hit will burn, for the cloth sail wooden ship is very threatening.

The Snow Pig Prince didn't dare to go on the deck, but when he saw Zhou Xuan standing on the bow tower, he also pretended to have the courage to climb up the bow tower, and the two masters of the Falcon Gate, Chen Yanshou and Fei Qing, guarded him left and right.

In order to show himself in front of the Snow Pig Prince, Fei Qing saw that a Wuyue warship was pressing, less than 20 zhang away from the "Lingfei", with two sails blowing the wind and hunting with flags, so he said: "Your Highness, see that I have scrapped this ship." ”

Now the "Lingfei" in addition to the boatmen, the others are all Tang people, and it is also the Tang * Shi who are struggling to meet the enemy, which makes the Snow Pig Prince feel like he is under the fence, and only Chen Yanshou and Fei Qing can be used. ”

Fei Qing borrowed a single knife from the Fenghua soldiers under General Qi, strode along the port side, looked at the Wuyue warship, took off the single knife, flew out like a propeller, the noon sun shone on the rotating blade, flashing dazzling, and saw that a piece of light swept between the two sails, and actually cut the two thick and strong sail ropes together, and the Wuyue warship fell down with a brush on both sides of the big sails, and as soon as the long sail fell, the ship was immediately reduced, and after a while, it was thrown behind by the "Lingfei".

Another Wu-Yue warship saw that the "Lingfei" had such a master, and did not dare to get too close. The tail chase is relentless.

Zhou Xuan praised: "Shopkeeper Liu has such a capable subordinate, it's amazing, what kind of official position is this person?" ”

The Snow Pig Prince was praised by Zhou Xuan, his heart was overjoyed, and he replied: "His name is Fei Qing, and he is a general in the Tiger Ben, and he is not allowed to be promoted because he has not yet been purified." ”

Zhou Xuandao: "Fei Qing is a talent, give him a clean body as soon as possible, and he can be entrusted with a heavy responsibility - Gong Chengshu has any position?" ”

The Snow Pig Prince nodded and said, "Officer Zhou is right. Gong Chengshu is the inner master, this delay in the timing, resulting in the capsizing of the big ship, the crime is extremely evil, when the shopkeeper returns to the Xingwang Mansion, that is, please ask the father and the god and witch to castrate Fei Qing, and then seal it as the inner master. ”

Chen Yanshou's face suddenly became extremely ugly, because the eunuch couldn't love men and women, his * for money and power was even stronger, and Chen Yanshou loved power. He is currently the squire of the Yellow Gate, ranked below Gong Chengshu, and has always coveted the position of the inner master, but fortunately Gong Chengshu is dead. He is very hopeful of filling the vacancy, but now when he hears Liu Shousu say this, his heart suddenly cools half, Liu Jixing is over fifty years old, and he is drunk and promiscuous on weekdays. It is estimated that it will be difficult to live a long life, so it must be favored by Liu Shousu, but now-

Zhou Xuan caught the resentment that flashed in Chen Yanshou's eyes, and smiled slightly: "Shopkeeper Liu, this Chen Huangmen is also loyal, the day before yesterday, he got rid of Gong Chengshu, Chen Huangmen made great contributions, and Fei Qing can be called the left and right arms of Shopkeeper Liu." ”

Prince Snow Pig said: "Yes, Chen Yanshou has a lot of credit. This inner master can choose one of Chen Yanshou and Fei Qing. ”

Fei Qingxing rushed up, just when he heard the words of the Snow Pig Prince, he was ecstatic in his heart, and said humbly on the surface: "How can the humble position compare to Chen Huangmen-" looked at Chen Yanshou's face.

Chen Yanshou smiled, and his smile was quite reluctant.

Zhou Xuanxin said: "Very good, there is a gap between this Falcon Sect junior brothers. Wait to get through this difficult time. Find a way to make these two kill each other, but look at Chen Yanshou's sinister appearance. Maybe I don't need to fan the flames at all, they will fight themselves. ”

The "Lingfei" threw off the two Wu-Yue warships and went southward with all its might, getting closer and closer to Seng Jingquan's sea ships, seeing that it was about to catch up with him five or six miles, but saw that the two Wu-Yue warships that were entangled with Seng Jingquan turned their rudder to the south, and did not intercept Seng Jingquan's ship, but rushed towards the "Lingfei", and the Wuyue warriors on the deck waited with their bows.

General Qi scolded: "***, the thief has passed the test, how did Wu Yue know that the princess would be on the thief's boat, but now she is here to stop our boat!" ”

Fei Qingdao: "This kind of boat is afraid of him, and he will sink them." ”

Zhou Xuan said with a smile: "The Lingfei Treasure Ship has carried the sea god wind, and the hull has been damaged, so it can't be collided, but it's okay to scare them." He ordered the shipwright to sail unabated, and rushed straight towards the two Wu-Yue warships.

Wu Yue's war ship is one-third the size of the "Lingfei", those Wu Yue soldiers saw this huge ship coming, obviously wanted to rely on the tall hull to hit them, frightened, hurriedly turned the rudder, fortunately their ship was small and flexible, quickly avoided both sides, the archers on the deck all arrows, shot at the "Lingfei", including rockets.

Lin Ji commanded the soldiers to fight back, and the ship's supervisor organized the shipwright and sailors to extinguish the fire.

The Lingfei treasure ship quickly passed between the two Wu Yue warships, and when the three ships were staggered, Lin Ji took a four-stone bow and aimed at the Wu Yue people who looked like generals on the left warship and shot an arrow.

The "Lingfei" sailed on all five sides with a whining wind, and quickly rushed away from the encirclement of the two ships, and chased after the sea ships of the whole land of the monk and the earth six or seven miles ahead

Thirty-six long oars stretched out from the left and right portholes of Seng Jingquan's sea boat, and a hundred-legged centipede rowed like a sail, and the ship was very fast with the power of sails.

"Lingfei" broke through the interception of the Wuyue warship, extinguished several small fires, and began to row with all its might, sixty-four sailors struggled to shake the spiral oar, and must catch up to snatch back the princess.

The two ships rushed to the southwest, according to this degree, it would not take two days to reach the Yizhou Sea, and after a thousand miles of Yizhou Sea was the boundary of the Eight Kingdoms of Zhongtian, and it would be even more difficult to recapture Princess Qingle at that time.

Zhou Xuan asked the three Snow Pig Princes about the situation of Zhang Sheng, the eighth king of Zhongtian, and the Snow Pig Prince said angrily: "Zhang Sheng is just a thief, he dares to rob the marriage halfway, this shopkeeper must catch him." I'm going to cut him with a thousand cuts! ”

General Qi said: "The good sect of the county learned that Zhang Shengjin is three years Chinese New Year's Eve old, there are already 100 concubines, and his reputation is not very good, it is said that his appearance is mighty, and he has two powerful subordinates, one is the national teacher and monk Jingquan, and the other is the great prime minister Huang Boxiong. ”

Zhou Xuan knew that these so-called rebels, at the beginning of the uprising, were under the banner of making a living for the poor people, and once they gained power. Their leaders are often presumptuous and absurd, which is not a good thing.

At this time, the ship's supervisor and four shipwrights came over with two servants in the appearance of people, and said to Prince Snow Pig and Zhou Xuanyu: "Your Highness, Zhou's marriage envoy, these two are the spies of the Eight Kingdoms of Zhongtian, one is the kitchen handyman, and the other is the sailor. ”

Zhou Xuan coldly glanced at the two spies. He said, "Tie them up and throw them into the sea." ”

The Snow Pig Prince hurriedly said: "Officer Zhou, let this two spies be disposed of by the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper will make them regret why their father and mother gave birth to them!" ”

is the same as his father Liu Jixing. The Snow Pig Prince had an extremely cruel side, and ordered Chen Yanshou and Fei Qing to take a spy by themselves, and rushed down the cabin to torture people for fun.

Seng Jingquan's ship was very fast, and it was estimated that the people who planned the oars were carefully selected strong men, and the boatmen and sailors on the "Lingfei" experienced a big storm. Nine deaths and one life, yesterday was looking for Zhou Xuan and them all day long, very tired, chasing left and right, the distance between the "Lingfei" and Seng Jingquan's ship of six or seven miles could not be shortened, and it was already dark.

Zhou Xuan was anxious, but there was nothing he could do on this vast sea.

The night soon shrouded the sea, and the sailboat of Seng Jingquan six miles away gradually blurred until it was out of sight. Anyway, Zhou Xuan has long been out of sight, and the four idiots said that they can still see a little shadow.

General Qi scolded: "That thief doesn't light a bald lamp!" ”

Zhou Xuan said: "That's nature, isn't lighting the lamp equivalent to showing us the way!" ”

The ship's supervisor said: "Please rest assured, according to the guidance of the compass, there will be no mistake in the southwest direction, and the ships of the Eight Kingdoms of Zhongtian will not be able to get rid of us." ”

Zhou Xuan said: "We must guard against them turning quietly under the cover of night." Go around behind us. And we stupidly rushed forward. ”

General Qi said: "The county prince is extremely worried, and the last general will send four small boats with two wings open to investigate. They must not succeed in their schemes. ”

Since falling into the trap and losing the princess, General Qi has always felt very guilty, and often has the heart of grief and indignation to die.

Zhou Xuan comforted: "General Qi doesn't have to blame himself too much, the princess will definitely be rescued, General Qi commanded properly, and saved the Lingfei in the big storm, which is a great achievement." ”

Lin Ji nodded and said: "What the county lord said is extremely true, there are five big ships in the fleet, only the Lingfei survives, and General Qi is definitely more meritorious than demeritorious." ”

There was a scream from a porthole on the third floor, and the Snow Pig Prince's torture of the two spies was not over.

Zhou Xuan frowned and said: "This pig's head, if you want to kill it with one knife, why are you torturing people like this!" "Take the four idiots down to the third-floor cabin, and let the Snow Pig Prince throw the spy into the sea.

Just as Zhou Xuan left the bow tower, Seng Jingquan's boat was busy.

Dressed in a big red monk's robe, the old monk stood on the starboard side looking at the sinking sea water, his long eyebrows kept shaking, and several famous martial artists stood beside him.

Seng Jingquan said: "The boat behind has not caught fire, and those two people seem to have been revealed, and now they have to act according to the second plan." ”

A martial artist was convinced: "The national teacher is a god, and no one can match it." ”

Monk Jingquan asked: "How far is it from the coast of Changxi?" ”

Another Wu Ben replied: "There are still more than 100 miles, and it is a good wind at this time, and we will row with all our might, and we can reach the coast of Changxi County in the second half of the night." ”

Monk Jingquan said: "Although Lao Wei arranged for someone to answer in Changxi, but Changxi is the boundary of Wuyue after all, which is quite troublesome, but now the back is in a hurry, I am afraid that we will not be able to calmly go to Qingyuan, so prepare to climb 6 in Changxi." ”

One of the Wu Ben asked, "Is it taking advantage of the night to let the big ship dock?" ”

Monk Jingquan said: "No, the big ship is very easy to be chased by the soldiers, so the old man took the princess of Tang Kingdom to quietly land in a small boat, and then continued to drive the boat to the west, and led the pursuers to the boundary of Qingyuan Quanzhou and landed on the shore, forgive them for not daring to go ashore to chase." ”

Several Wu Ben said in their hearts: "I'm afraid it didn't go so well, if you can escape to Quanzhou, why should the national teacher abandon the ship and land now?" I'm waiting for the bait, and if I am caught up by the boat behind me, there will be only a fight to the death. ”

Of course, these are just slanders, and no one dares to disagree with them in person.

In the second half of the night, the semi-circular moon hung high in the sky, Princess Qingle, Fang Cha, and Cumin were held hostage to the deck by three sturdy servants, and the black and thin old monk Jing Quan and the three Wu Ben stood in the moonlight.

Princess Qingle scolded: "Old monk! Old bald donkey! ”

The old monk Jingquan was not angry, and said with a smile: "Her Royal Highness the princess's temper is not small, so the old man will send Her Royal Highness the princess ashore." ”

Princess Qingle said angrily: "What Her Royal Highness the Princess! What to ashore! Quickly stop the boat, let the three of me go back to the Lingfei Treasure Ship. ”

A Wu Ben walked quickly, bowed down and said, "National Teacher, the two small boats are ready. ”

The old monk Jingquan nodded, looked at the aromatic tea and cumin, and frowned slightly.

A martial artist beside him said: "These two palace maids are in trouble on the road, so they are simply killed and thrown into the sea——"

Fangcha and cumin trembled with fright, and cried out sadly: "Princess-"

Princess Qingle raised her eyebrows and screamed: "Whoever dares to touch my two maids, I will never spare him, I-I will immediately bite my tongue and kill myself!" ”

The old monk Jingquan said with a smile: "I didn't expect that the daughter of the mediocre lord Li Yu was so strong, it's just that, the old man is bent on friendship with the Tang Kingdom for the sake of the eight kingdoms of Zhongtian, and he will not hurt their lives, anyway, Her Royal Highness the princess also needs someone to serve on the way, so take it on the road, and please ask Her Royal Highness the princess not to resist anymore, don't let the old man be embarrassed, otherwise, the old man will not dare to be disrespectful to the princess, but these two little maids, I am afraid that they will die very miserably!" ”

Princess Qingle saw that the old bald donkey promised not to hurt Fangcha and cumin, she was slightly relieved, turned her head to look behind the boat, the night was dark, the sea was vast, and she couldn't see the "Lingfei", thinking about Cousin Xuan's life and death, she herself was held hostage to this ship, and now she was forced to land again, she couldn't help but feel sad, tears flowed down her cheeks, and she whispered in her heart: "Cousin Xuan, you must not die, you must come to save me-"
