In the early morning, the boat was surprisingly quiet, perhaps because everyone was tired after a night of tossing, and when it was dawn, not many people got up, and they all seemed to be still asleep. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 InfoEven Ning Er and Suzaku, who were guarding Zhu Qing, fell asleep on the edge of the bed.

The first to get up was Aunt Chong, who had long been accustomed to this kind of life at sea, to the simple fisherman's life at sunrise. And today, after a night of wind and waves, there is a rare sunrise, and the winter sun shines on the sea, giving people a dazzling warmth.

"Who?" The guard was awakened by Aunt Chong's footsteps and asked in a daze.

"I'm sorry Master Jun, I'll get up and cook, and come out to have a look by the way." Aunt Chong said cautiously, for fear of annoying the military master.

"Oh, it's Auntie, it's okay, you've worked hard. By the way, Auntie, what's delicious today? The guard asked with a smile. In the past two days, the food on the battleship has been helped by the eldest lady, and it is too late for everyone to be grateful, how dare you pretend to be an uncle in front of her?

"It's still the same, it's just that the portion is getting less and less, didn't I come out to take a look? Can you find a way to catch some fish and shrimp to satisfy everyone's cravings, and also give the general and a few of their patients some good food, so that they can nourish their bodies. Aunt Chong said, it seemed that there was some difficulty.

In order to thank Xu Hongfei for his achievements in resisting the Japanese, Zhu Qing insisted on leaving many trophies on the Japanese warship to Xu Hongfei, including food, because they also lost a lot this time, and they encountered a famine year, preparing for the New Year, Xu Hongfei was also quite tight. And Jinyiwei went south along the coast, there were few people, and he could go ashore to replenish at any time, but Zhu Qing didn't expect that this time he made a mistake in his estimation.

When the eldest lady said this, the guard who had just woken up shook his hand casually and smiled, "It's okay, we will walk for another day and a half to the Huai River ferry, and when we get to the ferry, we can go ashore to replenish food." ”

But Aunt Chong stood on the deck and didn't respond, she looked at the vast sea, a look of panic flashed across her face, she has been out to sea all year round, but she feels so strange at this moment.

"Master Jun, this ......" Aunt Chong suddenly panicked. The guard rubbed his eyes and walked up to the deck, "What's the matter, auntie?" ”

"Look, where are we? This vast expanse is boundless, where is the mouth of the Huai River? The eldest lady asked, pointing to the sea.

The guard hurriedly fixed his eyes and looked at it, but he was not calm, he panicked in his heart, rubbed it again, and ran into the cabin in a panic after making sure that he couldn't see the edge, "General! Oh no, General! ”

"What's going on?" Xuanwu, who was vigilant, was the first to run out and asked. The people on the ship were awakened one after another by the shouts of the guards, and they all put on their padded jackets and went to the deck.

"Oh no, General, we're ...... We're lost! ”

"What did you say?" Lin Bai had also run out at this time.

Xuanwu took out his clairvoyance to investigate, and there was still a vast sea water thousands of miles away, and there was no shadow of land at all, "It seems that it was caused by the wind and waves last night." Xuanwu sighed and said, "Lin Bai, go check that the four battleships behind you are not lost, right?" ”

Lin Bai nodded, and ran to the stern, the five battleships were connected together with chains to prevent them from falling apart during the voyage, after all, not every Jinyi guard was a navigator, nor was he a skilled helmsman, but he was just a monk halfway and temporarily requisitioned. Of course, the more reliable is the helmsman on the main ship, so it has to be connected by chains.

Fortunately, Lin Bai reported that nothing happened.

"My lord, why don't you take the compass out and have a look?" Chong'er reminded that after all, growing up by the sea, learning to identify the direction is the most basic way for fishermen to survive.

"That's right, you go and get the compass." Blackevil said, instructing one of the guards, who quickly ran into the cabin.

At this time, Suzaku also came out, and she came to the deck and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"The wind and waves carried us off the coast last night, and now we don't know where we are." Xuanwu handed the clairvoyant to Suzaku and said.

Suzaku picked it up and looked at it, but he was also helpless. They are comfortable on land, but they are helpless on the endless sea.

"Is Qinglong awake?" The black slash asked.

Suzaku nodded, "Wake up, Ning'er is taking care of him." ”

Just as Suzaku was speaking, Ning'er walked out with Zhu Qing in her arms.

"Big brother?!"

"General?!"

"Ning'er, why did you come out? You're still weak. Suzaku hurriedly ran over to help Ning'er.

Lin Bai helped Zhu Qing over.

"I've heard you all." Zhu Qing smiled weakly, took the clairvoyance from Suzaku's hand and looked at it, and knew the seriousness of the matter, but he was not in such a hurry as others, he looked at the sea, and a dazzling morning sun shone on the sea, stimulating Zhu Qing, who was a little flustered, he looked up and smiled slightly, "Sunrise in the east." When everyone heard this, they also looked up at the rising sun.

"Where's the compass?" Zhu Qing turned around and asked.

"Here, General, the compass is here." At this time, the guards happened to rush out with a compass.

Zhu Qing took the compass and put it on a desk on the deck, "You see, it's morning, the sun has just risen, the sun rises in the east, and that side is east, although we don't know where we are now, but even if the wind and waves last night were strong, they can't drift far, then the continent is in the west, the compass points to the north, and the bow of the ship is facing southeast." Lin Bai, go, tell the helmsman, dispatch ninety degrees, we should sail in the southwest direction, if there is no mistake, we can get close to the Qinhuai coastline in two or three days. Zhu Qing analyzed it with relish, but everyone was almost stunned when they heard it, especially when he said the ninety degree angle, Lin Bai was more like a second monk who was confused.

Zhu Qing looked up at Zhongre's puzzled eyes, and then smiled slightly, "Oh, I said vaguely, ninety degrees is like this square table corner, now our direction is this side, you go and tell the helmsman to turn to that side." Zhu Qing said, making a gesture with the square corner of the table at a right angle, and this time, everyone suddenly opened. Lin Bai nodded excitedly, everyone believed in Zhu Qing, he believed in Zhu Qing even more, as soon as Zhu Qing said it, he went to do it.

"Hey, wait." Zhu Qing called Lin Bai.

"Don't forget to talk to the battleships behind, ask them to follow the dispatch, don't drag the four small ones over the main ship when you arrive." Zhu Qing admonished.

"Phew! Talking nonsense. Suddenly, Aunt Chong hurriedly said.

Zhu Qing and the others all looked at Aunt Chong's reaction in surprise, "Auntie? ”

"General, my mother means that you can't just say that word when you go to sea." Chong'er cautiously explained.

"Oh!" Everyone suddenly realized.

Zhu Qing even smiled at Aunt Hing, "Yes, yes, the eldest mother is right, I made a slip of the tongue just now, everyone has to listen to the eldest aunt." No nonsense. ”

When everyone heard this, they grinned.

Under Lin Bai's command, the fleet was slowly dispatched, and the morning sun shone on the side face, Zhu Qing felt a little warm, and he gradually breathed a sigh of relief,

"Alright, let's all disperse. Don't worry, we'll be able to dock soon. Zhu Qing's words undoubtedly reassured everyone. The crowd chatted and laughed and dispersed.

The guard just now suddenly smiled at Aunt Hing, "Auntie, you teach me to fish, I learned to fish, and the generals will be able to improve their food." ”

When Zhu Qing heard this, he looked at Aunt Chong in surprise, and then stepped forward.

"What's going on?" Zhu Qing asked the guard.

"General, the eldest lady said that there is not much food on the ship, quite enough for today's last meal. So we wanted to catch some fish and shrimp to eat. The guard replied.

"Auntie? It's true? When Zhu Qing heard this, he was shocked, although he guessed that the coastline was in that direction, but he couldn't guess how far it was, and how far he had to sail on the sea. And food is the biggest problem at the moment.

Aunt Chong nodded, "Originally, according to the adult's plan, we could go ashore to replenish at the next ferry today, but ......" Aunt Chong did not continue.

"It's all my fault." Zhu Qing was the first to take responsibility, "I didn't expect such an accident to come back." ”

"It's not the general's fault, even I, an old woman who has been at sea for most of my life, never thought that this kind of thing would happen. But the most important thing at the moment is not the lack of food. Aunt Chong's face was even more solemn.

"What else?" Zhu Qing hurriedly asked.

"We can try to catch some fish and shrimp to fill our stomachs, but ...... Lack of water! Aunt Chong said softly after two words, she didn't dare to say anything.

"What?" Zhu Qing was surprised, his heart began to be a little scared, he knew that the lack of water was a fatal factor in surviving at sea. "Don't we have a lot of fresh water on board?"

Aunt Chong shook her head, "It's gone." The general might as well come in with me and have a look. Aunt Chong said, guiding Zhu Qing into the kitchen.

Ning'er, Suzaku and others also followed.

Zhu Qing walked into the kitchen and opened the water tank to see that the water in the tank had turned black.

"How so?" Zhu Qing asked in surprise.

"I don't know, I can get up this morning to cook and see this." Aunt Chong said.

"Mother, do you remember? The other day, when the Japanese left our fishing boat, our water became like this. Chong'er said suddenly.

"That's right. How did I forget? That's right, General, we did encounter a similar situation the other day. Aunt Chong suddenly remembered and said.

"Wako?" When Ning Er heard this, she took out a silver needle from her head, poked it into the water tank, and took it out, and everyone was immediately surprised.

"Poisonous?" Suzaku Road.

Ning Er nodded, "It's Gu poison, Oriental Gu poison." ”

"What? Didn't you say that as long as the Gu King was eliminated, the Gu poison would naturally disappear? Zhu Qing asked in surprise.

"That's right, every time a Shi Gu person is eliminated, all the Gu worms he raises that are not possessed will be eliminated, and now that there is still Gu poison on the ship, it can only mean one problem......," Ning Er said.

"What's the problem?" The black demon asked.

"There's a Gu Man nearby! And it's an Oriental Gu Man, although his skills are not as powerful as the previous Gu Man, but now it seems that his carving insect skills are enough to put us in a dangerous situation. Ning'er continued.

"You mean there's a Gu Man nearby? However, the Gu worms on the ship have all been wiped out by you, how can he use the Gu? Could it be that he can cast Gu in the air? Although the Gu poison was unfathomable, Zhu Qing didn't believe that it could flood through the air.

"Of course not."

"Then ......" Zhu Qing looked at Ning Er's eyes, and didn't ask any more, he raised his right hand and saw that the wound on the back of his hand was faintly painful.

When everyone saw it, they stopped making a sound, and they all seemed to understand.

"Big brother! A ship was spotted ahead! At this time, Lin Bai ran in with clairvoyance and shouted.
