Heavy snow always comes silently, when I wake up in the morning, there is already a white expanse outside, the scenery seen through the window, has been covered with a thick layer of snow, and large snowflakes, at this time are still falling one after another, look at this situation, for a while and a half probably don't expect to stop!

Zhao Chen, who was thinking about getting up early this morning and preparing to enter the palace, was nested in the warm quilt at this time, staring blankly at the white expanse outside the window, and the two villains called diligence and laziness in his mind were in full swing at this time, but unfortunately, in the end, when the diligent villain was about to win, Leng Buding appeared and put a slippery and greasy thigh on Zhao Chen's leg, so all the preliminary efforts were in vain.

"Husband, it's snowing outside!" The owner of the slippery and greasy thighs was naturally sleeping in Xiangcheng next to him, probably awakened by Zhao Chen's movement just now, and at this time he looked out the window with sleepy eyes, and muttered in a voice.

Speaking kung fu, the body did not forget Zhao Chen's side squeezed hard, as if afraid of the cold, the whole body was attached to Zhao Chen's back, it didn't matter if she moved, the two rabbits hidden in her arms immediately jumped out of the bib, and lay down quietly on Zhao Chen's back.

Wheat has completely woken up, but the body is still very weak, after all, it has been in a coma for several days, it is really water and rice that has not entered, normal people are hungry for a few days, and they are also weak, not to mention that Wheat is still a little girl!

When he woke up last night, Qin Yuyan ordered the kitchen to make some black chicken soup, and when Zhao Chen went over in the morning, it happened that Wheat was eating rice porridge, probably because of yesterday's conversation, at this time, Wheat looked at him with a slightly different look, his eyes were full of shyness, dodgy, but his face was filled with joy that could not be hidden.

"Take care of your injuries, if you want to eat something, tell Yuyan!" His face was much ruddy, but the wound was still shocking, Zhao Chen carefully changed the wound medicine, and when he went out, he rubbed his hair with some pity and said.

"Less. . . Is the young master going out? Zhao Chen was wearing a purple gold waiting suit, wheat had served Zhao Chen for so long, so it was naturally clear, but looking at the heavy snow outside, I don't know what Zhao Chen was doing when he went out at this time, so he asked with a little worry.

"Hmm!" Hearing the inquiry behind Mai, Zhao Chen, who had originally turned around, stopped again, nodded at Mai, groaned slightly, and said, "It's still an assassin's matter, and there are some finishing things that need to be discussed with Your Majesty!" ”

Since she entered the palace to discuss this matter, Mai was relieved, the assassin's matter, she heard from the three ladies last night, and heard that it was all wiped out, and told Zhao Chen to wear more cotton robes when he went out, and then he watched Zhao Chen go out with gentle eyes, and his expression was like that of a little daughter-in-law.

"Master Hou, there are seafarers waiting in the study!" Coming out of the wheat house, as soon as he turned the moon gate, he saw Zhang Lu wearing snow, standing outside the moon gate waiting for him, and when Zhao Chen just approached, Zhang Lu immediately lowered his voice and said to Zhao Chen.

"Seaker?" As soon as he heard Zhang Lu say that there was a seaguest visiting the study, Zhao Chen's mind immediately flashed the figure of the bearded guest, counting the days, this guy has been missing for several days, it is not clear whether he is alive or dead, if he is alive, it should be time to appear.

instructed Zhang Lu and told the dogs outside that he didn't have to wait for him, Zhao Chen went straight to the study alone, thinking that there was no doubt that there was a bearded guest in the study at this time, and he couldn't help but grit his teeth and mutter, this guy disappeared during this time, Li Er was pressed down by him, and it was best for this guy to give him a perfect explanation later, otherwise, he would not blame him for turning his face and being ruthless.

When Zhao Chen entered, he thought that the person waiting for him in the house was a bearded guest, however, what surprised him a little was that it was a strange face like a thin monkey, dressed in tatters, just like the one who had just escaped.

"Where's the bearded guest?" didn't see the figure of the bearded guest, which made Zhao Chenda a little unhappy in his heart, so the tone of voice when he spoke was not much polite, and he sat down behind the desk steadily, and asked straight to the point.

"Back to Lord Hou's words." can be sent to Chang'an to see him by the bearded guest, this guy in front of him is not a stupid person, he can see that Zhao Chen is unhappy, so he said with a very respectful attitude: "Our ship encountered a storm at sea and was taken to a desert island, which was delayed for many days, and when he came back, the eldest brother was infected with wet and cold again, and he was afraid that Hou Ye would be worried, so the eldest brother sent a villain to report to Hou Ye!" ”

! Zhao Chen didn't believe that the bearded guest was infected with any wet cold, but he didn't plan to go to the bottom of it anymore, looked at the thin monkey in front of him, and asked with a slight groan: "Taken to a desert island by the storm?" ”

"Yes!" Seeing that Zhao Chen was not pursuing the matter of the bearded guest, the thin monkey was obviously secretly relieved, and when he heard Zhao Chen's inquiry, he quickly took out a piece of oilcloth from his arms, unfolded it on the desk in front of Zhao Chen, and carefully explained: "This is a chart drawn by the eldest brother according to the instructions of the Hou Ye, and the location of the desert island is marked on it. ”

Whether it is Cheng Chumo, or the bearded guest and others, Zhao Chen gave them the method of drawing sea charts, walking on the sea can not be compared with the land, there is no reference when going to sea, the only way to rely on is the compass and the simple instrument for measuring the latitude and longitude assigned to them by Zhao Chen, with the existence of these two things, their sea boats, at least will not be floating on the sea and unable to return home.

The nautical chart is very sloppy, it is the land that is circled on both sides, the wave pattern is the sea surface, and the dotted line is the route of the sea boat, there is no nautical mark, the only difference from the current nautical chart is that the longitude and latitude are marked on this nautical chart, but Zhao Chen can't see the specific location of the desert island just by relying on this nautical chart.

took down a drawing from the shelf, spread it out on the desk, and compared the chart to find it little by little, and later, when Zhao Chen's fingers stayed in Australia, his eyes showed a look of surprise for the first time, this group of bastards, they actually crossed a continent by ghost, and they were embarrassed to call the land in Australia a desert island!

"Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?" The shock in his heart was obviously huge, and after a while, he looked at the thin monkey in front of him in disbelief and asked again and again.

"Both... It's all drawn according to the method that Hou Ye said! The thin monkey didn't understand the surprise in Zhao Chen's eyes, thinking that something was wrong with the charts, his eyes looked back and forth on the two charts, and he said with obvious lack of confidence in his mouth.

Then, without waiting for Zhao Chen to ask, after they went ashore in one go, all the things were told to Zhao Chen and Pan 1510, that is, the matter of eating huge rats with the local natives, and he didn't dare to hide it from Zhao Chen.

"That's what you're eating?" When comparing the charts before, Zhao Chen was not completely sure whether he was going to Australia or not, but at this moment, listening to the experience of the thin monkey, Zhao Chen was 100% sure, took out the pen from the pen holder, sketched the appearance of the kangaroo on the paper, and gave it to the thin monkey and asked.

"Yes, yes, yes." Although the kangaroo is sketched, but it already has the appearance of eight or nine points, the thin monkey they have been on the shore for a long time, and they are naturally impressed by the appearance of the kangaroo, so when they see the kangaroo painted by Zhao Chen, they immediately shouted excitedly.

At this point, Zhao Chen has been completely sure that the bearded guest and his party have really set foot on the Australian continent by mistake!

"By the way, Master Hou, this was brought from that desert island, can Master Hou recognize this thing?" Seeing Zhao Chen's excited face, the thin monkey hesitated, gritted his teeth and took out a small cloth bag from his arms, carefully took out a transparent stone from it and handed it to Zhao Chen, and asked tentatively.

Diamonds, moreover, are big diamonds that Zhao Chen has never seen before!

It is the size of a pigeon's egg, hexagonal shape, cold in the hand, as crystal clear as an ice cube, put the diamond in the window where the light is enough, the light is reflected in the palm of the hand through the diamond, it is the colorful light that circulates, Zhao Chen looked at it with a burst of excitement in his heart, this thing is a real priceless thing!

"Is it just—is that one?" The thin monkey's expectant gaze has already explained everything, there is not only such a diamond, the reason why he took out one first is nothing more than to look at Zhao Chen's reaction first, determine how much this thing is worth, and then decide to take it out.

"Does Master Hou recognize this thing?" From Zhao Chen's mouth, he didn't get the answer he wanted, the thin monkey really looked a little anxious, he came to Chang'an to see Zhao Chen this time, but he came with a mission, and he was expecting to be able to take these things in exchange for some benefits in Zhao Chen's place, and the people on the whole ship were waiting for his good news!

"It's a strange thing!" Zhao Chen figured out the thin monkey's thoughts, became more and more calm, threw the diamond in his hand, and said with a regretful tone: "It's a pity that it's a little smaller, if it's bigger, maybe it's worth some money!" ”

"Let Hou Ye smile, in fact, there are still some villains here, if Hou Ye likes it, he will give them all to Hou Ye!" The mood of the thin monkey at this time, can no longer be described as desperate, this sea trip, encountered a storm, except for these things, it can be said that there is nothing, now listening to Zhao Chen's words, it is obvious that the matter of making up for the loss with these things has failed, helpless, I have to lower my posture, and Zhao Chen staged a bitter drama.

"Even if it is a storm, it is understandable, sailing at sea, how can there be smooth sailing!" happily took the heavy small cloth bag from the thin monkey's hand, showed a very understanding look on his face, comforted the thin monkey and said: "Fortunately, you have also discovered a new continent this time, and Ben Hou is not an unreasonable person, go back, Ben Hou will give you a supply alone!" ”

"-Lost!" Thousands of thanks came out of the study, the thin monkey just returned a grateful face, and in an instant it was like a frosted eggplant, and the whole collapsed, although those things are not sure what they are, but the value is definitely not what Zhao Chen said, otherwise, when he goes out, this Hou Ye will not be able to, with an expression of longing for him to leave.
