Chapter 19: Ambergris is not a legend

Leaving Sword Island, as soon as she drove on the sea for a while, the princess said, "Brother Ming, there is still a big island, let's go and see it?" ”

Qi Zhiming turned his head to look at the princess.

This girl must have been peeping at that island for a long time, and she wanted to go but didn't dare to go. Some of the strength she showed made her more confident, and now someone is bold, so she is invited.

"Good! I'm bored on the island, and now that I'm out, I'm going to have a good time. Is it far away there? "Qi Zhiming is desperate.

Himself and Gou Hong, as well as Xiao Bu, all require a lot of resources. Especially Xiao Bu Rang, it's a bottomless pit, I don't know how much it takes to make it full. I'm looking forward to seeing what Xiao Bu Won't look like after he eats enough.

"Not too far, three days away." The princess said.

Qi Zhiming was a little puzzled.

······

In human society, there is a struggle between countries for every inch of land.

With 6.4 billion people living in the world, how dense is that?

There are so many islands here, how is it that no country has sworn its sovereignty? And there are no human habitants? There are not even human buildings, what is going on?

Ask the princess, she can't tell clearly. Or don't want to say it.

But in the past, when the princess took herself to swim in the sea, she experienced the seas of many countries. The Gulf of Mexico, Easter Island, Australia, Alagasy, Galliana and many other seas.

Today's islands are not small, they are even big. It's strange that there is no mark on the map.

"Princess, how long did it take you to reach your island after you rescued me and Gou Hong at sea?" Qi Zhiming suddenly asked.

The princess's face changed suddenly, and she said slowly: "I can't remember clearly, I just thought about saving people at that time, and I forgot." ”

Qi Zhiming smiled bitterly, people don't want to say it, maybe they have a hard time, right? I don't ask anymore.

······

It was evident that the princess was very familiar with the sea, and could always find an island to rest on before dark.

As usual, the barbecue is set on fire.

It's no wonder that the princess is willing to take the risk to eat Wansanhoof, the food is single and barely swallowed, Qi Zhiming now misses the deliciousness of instant noodles.

"Princess, when you get back to the island, I'll make you something delicious, it's absolutely delicious!" Qi Zhiming laughed.

"Really? That's great, Brother Ming is so good! The princess just jumped for a moment, then changed her face and said, "No need, I won't eat it, I'm afraid that I won't eat it after I get addicted!" After speaking, he said sullenly: "Go to sleep, sleepy, good night!" ”

Qi Zhiming was at a loss, thinking about what he hadn't said wrong? How can you say that if you turn your face, you will turn your face? I can't figure it out, so I just don't bother with it.

I didn't sleep well last night, and I fell asleep after a while.

Qi Zhiming suddenly woke up and saw the princess sitting by the fire with her arms folded on her knees, her eyes looking at him fixedly.

"Princess, why don't you sleep? What's wrong? ”

"Brother Ming, I can't sleep, can you talk to me?" The princess asked with a faint look in her eyes.

"Okay, it's not easy for me to fall asleep again when I wake up, what do you say?" Qi Zhiming said with a smile.

"Tell me about before you met me? What was your life like before? I'm your life-saver, and I don't even understand you. I want you to tell it all, you can't hide it! As she spoke, the princess slowly brightened up again. It can be seen that she is very good at controlling her emotions.

Sorting out his thoughts, Qi Zhiming reproduced his experience from childhood to the time when he was rescued, like telling a story.

I have to say that Qi Zhiming's eloquence is still very good, and the princess cries and laughs when he hears it, and the whole person is immersed in the joys, sorrows, and sorrows he experienced.

"Brother Ming, you are very good! They bully you so much, why don't you hit them? You've definitely beaten them. Do you still want to go back to the places that make you sad? There, you're not happy! You look good here, right? There are not so many worries either. ”

"Is your family poor? Does it cost a lot of money to treat a disease? ”

"Your wife is really bad, how can she run away with your son?"

"You stay here, I'm good to you!"

The princess's eager eyes made Qi Zhiming's heart beat suddenly.

was already shunning the luxury of love, but when it suddenly came, he was beaten a little overwhelmed.

If Qi Zhiming can't hear the princess's affection, then he is really a big fool. But given the racial differences, as well as a number of other factors, there was some hesitation.

It's not easy to promise, so don't make a promise lightly.

"Princess, I can say unequivocally that I will definitely come back. The reason why I want to go back is because I have a lot of unfulfilled wishes to go to. But will definitely be back, and I also think this is a better place for me. Qi Zhiming looked at the princess firmly.

"You're scared to death, I'll accompany you when you want to go back!" The princess said in surprise.

looked at Qi Zhiming's stunned eyes, and explained: "You don't know the path!" After saying that, he turned around and avoided his shame.

······

Love is like being obsessed, and a pair of young men and women who were originally sleep-deprived are still in good spirits.

When they first revealed their state of mind, both of them were a little unnaturally twisted and unnatural.

The princess's pretty little face has never faded, her demeanor is full of shyness, and the little daughter's delicate posture is full.

Qi Zhiming was also at a loss, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

At breakfast, big hands and small hands can always collide in chance and necessity, and bounce away like an electric shock, but they look forward to meeting again.

In the end, Qi Zhiming simply stopped eating meat. directly grabbed someone's little hand, and looked at the princess with her head lowered and her face full of crimson stupidly.

In this life, the two will never be separated again!

Men, of course, you have to be bolder, do you want other girls to take the initiative? It doesn't make sense! It's good to do that, it's no longer awkward.

In this case, the heavens are not beautiful. The climate of the tropical rainforest, the rain will fall, it is really a terrible scenery.

But the two of them didn't care about the pouring rain, they kissed like that, and they did their best to linger, and the sweetness was abnormal.

The wind stopped raining, but he was in a hurry.

Hand in hand, stand side by side.

Raise your eyes and look around, the sky is blue and the sea is blue, the sky is high and the earth is wide, and the sea and sky are the same color in the distance.

The depression in Qi Zhiming's chest was swept away, and he couldn't help shouting into the distance, and the more he shouted, the louder he became. I still can't enjoy it, and I can't help but look up to the sky and roar.

The whistling sound is like a golden cracked stone, ringing on the peak, reaching the sea, and stopping at the tea.

Qi Zhiming felt that the breath in his abdomen was full, and the exercises were already in their infancy!

The princess watched silently.

The mountains and forests, streams, flowers and plants, can be seen in their feelings.

The two stayed for a long time before leaving.

This place is named because the two people love each other, so it is called "Love Island".

······

Riding on the waves again, the mood is different from the past.

The princess is no longer rude, the little bird is still human, and a heart is already a lover.

Although Qi Zhiming was full of spirits, he knew that the heavy responsibility was on his shoulders, so he was doubly careful along the way and walked slowly.

"Princess, how about calling you 'lady' in the future?" Qi Zhiming asked with a smile.

"Don't, it's hard to hear, just call me Yexiang!" The princess said in a coquettish voice.

"There are many names for human beings. Wife, daughter-in-law, wife, family, house, lady, wife, wife, wife, insider, clumsy, cheap. Which one do you prefer? Qi Zhiming quipped.

"Don't do it, it's all ugly. If you have ever read a book, don't you know that there is a saying about following the local customs? If you have to have a title, it's 'ma'am'! The princess pouted.

The night stops, and the jokes don't stop.

······

You chased after me, and at last we came to the island that the princess had spoken of.

This island is 100 miles in circumference, slightly longer from east to west, and slightly narrower from north to south.

The high mountains around the island are towering, and the middle is low, like the shape of a volcanic crater.

A white mist rises in the center of the island, the vegetation is dense and green, and the entire island is covered with trees that do not leave a trace of rocks.

The beach is wide, the sand is white and fine.

The water is clear and blue, and it surrounds the island.

The sea washes over the beach one by one.

"Madam, this is beautiful, this is the big island you are talking about?"

Qi Zhiming and the princess stopped on the sea, admiring the scenery here.

"If you like it, then this is our home. We are here to farm and weave, live happily for a lifetime, and give birth to a bunch of children with affection and love, do you say okay? ”

When the princess heard Qi Zhiming's previous words, her face was full of happiness. When he heard the latter sentence, he was suddenly startled and pushed him. "you, it's not serious. Who gave you a bunch of children? When I'm a pig, huh? After saying that, he was ashamed and turned his face away.

After a long time, the blush faded, and he turned to look at the island.

"Brother Ming, don't be careless. The island didn't seem to be dangerous, but there was a deep lake in the middle of the island, and the white mist was raised from the lake. If you look closely at the mist, what's so unusual? The princess said solemnly.

From a distance, the mist resembles the vapor of water emitted from a hot spring. But if you look closely, a trace of pink is mixed in, I don't know what, there is a little more weird atmosphere.

Now that Qi Zhiming's exercises and formations have been completed, he can't wait to try his knife. I am not afraid, and I still have some expectations.

"Madam, I didn't find any treasures on this way to the island, are you a little disappointed?" Qi Zhiming unconsciously teased the princess.

"I already have the best baby, and I can't get into anything else, so I won't look for it anymore." The princess looked at him affectionately.

"Huh? When did you find it? What kind? Why didn't I see it? Take it out and take a look. Qi Zhiming was moved, but he couldn't help but tease the princess with a smile.

I don't know why, I just like to see the princess shy.

"Phew, ignore you, it's not serious." The princess ran forward as she spoke, and Qi Zhiming hurriedly followed.

······

There is indeed a volcanic crater in the middle of the island, with a radius of thirty or forty miles.

The white mist rises on the blue-black water, especially in the middle, which is the thickest, and the white is boundless.

The lake is surrounded by mountains and trees. The hillsides are covered with wild flowers and fragrant scents.

There is nothing better than this in the fairyland on earth, right?

The two snuggled up on the hillside, taking in the beauty and observing the changes in the lake.

I don't know how many years this volcano has stopped erupting, but just looking at the formation of this island and the towering trees, it must have been hundreds of years ago.

What kind of spectacle should such a large island have when a volcano erupts?

Lovers are together, and they always feel that time is short.

It was late at night, and there were no animals coming to drink from the lake.

There was no chirp from the homing birds.

A slight murmur of insects accentuates the dreary and silent valley.

It's an island full of aura, but it looks lifeless.

The two of them were puzzled, but they could still hold their breath.

······

In the middle of the night, a loud sound of water sounded. A huge snake's head poked out of the water, stayed for a moment, and then swam towards the peak on the opposite bank.

The body of the snake is more than ten meters long, and it looks black in the moonlight. The huge body makes the lake rattle, and it is especially harsh in the quiet and stuffy night.

Qi Zhiming and the princess glanced at each other and quietly followed.

The serpent snaked all the way, making rocks and trees rattle without hesitation.

The princess hugged Qi Zhiming's arm tightly, very nervous. Maybe she's not afraid of snakes, but she's also nervous about the weird atmosphere of the night here, right?

Qi Zhiming hugged her shoulders tightly comfortingly, and followed silently.

It is known that there are many fierce beasts guarding the side of rare plants such as heaven and earth treasures, and they are not allowed to be peeped in. When it is ripe, it is allowed to be swallowed by oneself, which can greatly increase its cultivation.

There is a saying among the people that the spirit fox worships the moon and the giant python crosses the catastrophe.

This island hangs over the sea, and I don't know if it has gone through hundreds of thousands of years, and there is no sign of human life. As the legend goes, it's quite possible that something magical will happen.

The two continued to follow from afar.

The giant snake stopped straight at the mountainside, and poked its head into the six or seven meters wide cave probe, as if peeping but fearful.

There are no forests and stones outside the entrance of the cave, smooth and flat, forming a flat field the size of a basketball court, surrounded by trees on three sides, like a small farm yard.

The entrance to the cave was tightly sealed by a milky mist.

The giant snake stopped for a while, as if its patience had run out, raised its big snake head, and slammed into the thick fog at the entrance of the cave, making a "thud" sound of hitting the rock.

The giant snake collided for a while and rested for a while, until the sky turned white, but it was still in vain.

The guy went all the way down, lost his temper, made a lot of noise, and slid back into the lake, disappearing from sight.

The two stared at the giant snake for a night, and their spirits were a little tired, and when they looked at the entrance of the cave, there was nothing abnormal. I just left first and went to hunt some small game to wrap my belly.

After a big turn, there are no birds and beasts here. I don't know if I was scared away by the giant snake, or if there was something else wrong, so I had to grill fish to satisfy my hunger.

"Brother Ming, what did you say was in that cave? The serpent wanted to go in but couldn't. The princess asked.

"I can't see what it is yet, but I'll see it all when I go and see it later." Qi Zhiming said while eating, and he was also curious in his heart.

······

The white mist at the entrance of the cave seemed to be substantial, hard and elastic to the touch, like a huge balloon filling it.

The serpent's strong impact still failed to break it, and it was absolutely impossible for human power to force its way in.

After carefully observing it for a long time, I didn't think of a way, so I could only try it with a small one.

Living up to high expectations, Xiao Bulet slowly entered the hole.

Looking back, the white mist was just a layer as thin as a cicada's wings, obscuring the entrance of the cave.

The cave was dim and empty, and when you looked inside, the depths were dark and you didn't know where it leads.

The ground is concave, forming a circle with the dome roof and walls, like a huge cement pipe.

As we went deeper and deeper into the cave, a strange smell turned from faint to strong, like the smell of fresh fish that had been kept in a confined space for several days on a June day.

I don't know how far they went, and the smell was so strong that the two of them couldn't stand it. A mirror-like reflection in front of me contrasts with the jewel in the princess's hand.

"Brother Ming, there's a baby ahead!" The princess's obsession with wealth rose again, and she completely ignored the strange smell.

Qi Zhiming was silent and moved forward cautiously.

If you look closely, there is a small puddle on the rocks on the ground, about half a meter of water, and it is contained in the pit of one rock. Looking further into the distance, we are already at the end of the cave.

Stepping forward and knocking on the stone wall, there was a crackling sound of hitting the rock entity, and the cave was at the end.

The drive is small and not allowed to try, and it is just a hard mountain wall. Look around, there's nothing special.

The princess was disappointed, and couldn't help complaining: "I've been busy for a long time, and I don't have any treasures."

Qi Zhiming came to the puddle, smelling and looking.

The liquid in the puddle is like water, but it is as thick as honey, and when you dip it by hand, it is continuous, and the taste is unique and indescribable.

The princess looked disgusted: "Brother Ming, don't touch it, this must be something disgusting." Let's go! ”

"That giant snake has been peeking into this cave for a long time, and it is still entering with brute force, there must be a plan! And there is nothing special in this cave except for this water. The white mist at the entrance of the cave is also famous. What are these things? We don't know each other, but maybe it's some good baby, take it! Qi Zhiming said.

The princess looked at the puddle with disgust, and reluctantly handed Qi Zhiming something that looked like a transparent plastic bag, "You can make it yourself, it's disgusting to look at!" After saying that, he turned around and couldn't bear to look at it again.

Qi Zhiming worked alone for a long time before it ended, and the water was as thick as honey and not easy to irrigate.

After finishing his work, he opened his mind and said, "Is this a dragon cave?" It looks a lot like that. Is this thing that the giant snake is so desperate to get is the legendary ambergris? If so, we're in luck. It seems that ambergris is not a legend! ”

There was nothing in the cave but this slimy, honey-like water.

For a while, I couldn't wait to call the giant snake up and ask for an explanation.

In the spirit of the mentality of preferring to make mistakes and not missing them, I put away all these liquids.

Fortunately, Qi Zhiming brought these stinky water with him, so he saved himself and the princess's lives. That's an afterword.
