Chapter 54: The Sea of Cui
"The Metropolitan Governor, I haven't seen you for more than a month, and you have cleared it slightly, take care of your body!" Huang Chao came in the dust, and hugged Zhou Yu when he came up.
"Thanks to Lord Huang's concern, the little brother is ashamed and doesn't dare to be, he doesn't dare to be!" Zhou Yu hit two hammers on his back. You old fox, still so flamboyant.
"Are the adults and brothers here?" Zhou Yu looked behind him. Lord Zhang, Lord Ran, Lord Gao, Shi Hu, Fu Sheng, Wan Yanliang, Ye Lu Jing and others are all there. I didn't see Anle's girl.
"Where's Peace?" The Metropolitan Governor asked in surprise.
"Princess Anle felt that she could not bear the pain of running day and night, and feared that she would delay the march, so she recommended herself to stay and assist Governor Sally and the Lord of Bellman." Sun Hao leaned over and explained.
"Who is this?" Zhou Yu pointed to a handsome beautiful man behind Sun Hao with a delicate complexion, white and red, and a handsome appearance.
"See the Governor of the Great Metropolis, Little Wang Yanshan. I also hope that the Metropolitan Governor will give you advice! The beautiful man bowed. Listening to him, Zhou Yu chrysanthemum tightened. Okay, one day Long Yangjun came, and the two of you just got together.
"Look up for a long time, be lucky to be lucky, Yanshanjun." Zhou Yu wiped the sweat from his forehead as he said hello.
"Adults, please!" Zhou Yu hurriedly ushered everyone into the reception hall.
"Grand Governor, please!" The kings and generals of the Heaven Shaking Alliance, who had not been seen for a long time, instantly mingled, and the voices of hushing and asking for warmth were endless.
"Lord Ran, how are things going ahead?" Zhou Yu took a sip of hot tea and asked with concern.
"Everything was as the Governor expected. The first was the siege of Kaman City, which was relieved of Farsher's urgent need thanks to the great help of Hattori Hanzo. The army of the Tuwang retreated more than 100 miles, but it was still eyeing and preparing to attack. Although the city is full of rumors and arrows, there is no worry about breaking the city for the time being. Ran Min replied to him.
"Yes, the conscription is going well. Several propaganda teams have taken a multi-pronged approach to rectify the homeless, distribute food, put up notices, and be diligent in drills, but they have also replenished more than 10,000 recruits. Although there is no experience in combat, it is better than having a general without soldiers and an empty-handed white wolf. Gao Yang added.
"Brought together?" Zhou Yu was surprised, this is a big team. Coupled with the 25,000 elite soldiers in his hands, it is enough to break his wrist with Tuwang Tsukas.
"I haven't come yet, led by Ashoka, and I'm rushing through the Lich Pool to help Kaman City." Huang Chao said.
"Good! Very good! At this time, the fortress is the city of Carman, which must be defended and cannot be lost. This is the big rear and base area, and the younger brother has to get seventy-seven eighty-eight. I won't need so many soldiers for the time being. Zhou Yu thought to himself, the kings are indeed dragons and phoenixes, and their judgment of the situation and strategic layout are orderly and to the point.
"What's next? What is the Metropolitan Governor's plan? Zhang Jiao sat down and asked him with a serious face. At this stage, he took the city of Catching Winds, and most of Kuzsia fell into his hands, but there were strong enemies in the north, and the vast ocean in the southeast, east and west, if the fortress fell and the defense failed, there was a catastrophe and the fear of being swallowed by the enemy whale.
"What about Borada? Did you come along? Zhou Yu didn't answer him directly, but seemed to divert the topic.
"Come, come, Taishi, Doctor Liu, and Bolada walked around, visiting the bard and him, and his fellow descendants, saying that there was some progress in what you had instructed him. I can't wait to ask what it is. Ran Min said.
"Good. That's it, I'm like this, big brothers. Lord Ran, the Wind Catching City has recently changed hands, and the evil forces in the city are like embarrassment, day and night, shrinking and watching, waiting for an opportunity to counterattack, and there is a long way to go. I think a few adults will come forward. Each performs its own duties, division of labor and responsibility, lays a good foundation for us, and does a good job of strategic support. Luckily? ”
"As you wish!" The four of them said in unison.
"As for all the sergeants, keep enough to keep the garrison. Led by Bai Qi, Zhang Xianzhong, Lan Yu, Xue Rengui, Gilgamesh and others, all went to the front. Since the earth king is going to fight, let's not hide it. All the masters, guys, wisdom, and routines greeted him. The enemy is at the doorstep, so we can't talk about it without showing some housekeeping skills. What do you say? ”
"That's what we mean."
"As for Tuda, Jayron, Tarzan, and helping them, I have my own arrangements." Zhou Yu didn't intend to talk about it here, so it was inconvenient for several adults to ask more.
"I also ask you to take up your new post as soon as you settle down. The most important thing is to let Sun Hao, Fu Sheng, Wanyan, and Yelu unblock the channels for sending troops, grain, grass, and supplies to the front line from the cities of Kankun, Chasing Wind, and Cheche. Fighting is a supply, I want to see how long Tuwangzuka can spend with us! Zhou Yu's face sank.
After sending off the four adults, Zhou Yu urgently summoned Tuda and the others, and assigned them an important task, that is, all the personnel dressed up in disguise, divided into pieces, and formed several teams. As a merchant, he passed through the layers of blockades north of Kaman City, rushed to the continents of Dixia, Soracia, and Dubancia, and set up an ambush and waited for an opportunity.
Zhou Yu's decision was considered, and the fight with the Four Heavenly Kings must be judged and carefully planned, otherwise there is no chance of winning. marching from south to north from the central passage, the blind man with black eyes and easy to open his eyes open; Second, even if they take Tumeng City, they have three ways to retreat. In other words, they have to fight this battle if they continue to retreat. At this time, he had no good strategy at his disposal except for his ancestor's strategy of "surrounding the city from the countryside".
Finally, he asked for Borada.
"Bolada, has the Resurrection Grass gone on matter?"
"Back to the Grand Governor, the little one visited some troubadours who had traveled all over the world, and also contacted some descendants of the Holy Son Clan, and sorted out some information. There is a general idea. ”
"Oh? Let's hear it. ”
"I don't know if the Grand Governor has heard of the Wings of Mercy." Borada asked him a question first.
"I've heard something, go ahead."
"It has been found that this resurrection grass is the result of the feathers of the Wings of Mercy."
"It's fresh, but what about the whereabouts of the Wings of Mercy?" Zhou Yu got up from his chair and walked in front of him.
"From the message, the Wings of Mercy should be in the small hometown."
"You mean? On the island of the Holy Child? The Governor's eyes widened.
"Exactly."
So, the golden toad's belly is imprinted with the whereabouts of the Wings of Mercy? The Grand Governor made a bold guess. Now that he has the Cursed Eyes, the Sword of Atonement, and the Feet of Promise, he will have the Armor of Anointing if he gets the Wings of Mercy.
"What is the name of that sea you talked about earlier?" The Governor looked happy, and beckoned him to come and take a look at his map.
"That sea is called the Sea of Kuo. It is said that it can be reached in ten days from the west of this wind-catching city. Borada couldn't read what he was holding in his hand, and spoke to him from memory.
"The Sea of Kuo? Such a weird name? The Governor turned the map upside down and looked it upside down, but there was no name. There is no record of the sea on the map, only the approximate location and some of the islands on it.
"It is said that I have never seen the little one. It is said that this sea is suspended in the air, and the bottom is supported by the mountains and mountains, and the end is a sea in the sky. ”
"Sea in the air?" Zhou Yu was so shocked that his jaw was about to drop. This, this goes against the common sense of physics. How can a mountain hold up to the sea? However, what he had seen in this borderlands was extremely strange, and even if Borada said the words "sea in the air", it was not enough to shock Zhou Yu.
"Let's get ready, and we'll leave in a few days." Zhou Yu closed the map.
"Where are you going, where are you going? Grand Governor! ”
"Go to this sea of squanders? Don't you want to go back to your hometown? ”
"However, this sea of mountains and the island of the Holy Son are already cursed places, and it is really uncertain whether they can reach the small one." Bolada grimaced.
"You're not sure, and I'm not sure either. Still, I know of one person who she should be sure of. Zhou Yu's eyes flickered. That's right, he's referring to Nika. This Nizi tricked him into opening the secret room and taking the secret. To say that her purpose is not the wings of mercy, the ghost believes.
Now the crux of the matter is, where to find this eldest lady who has no head and tail of the dragon? Zhou Yu fell into deep thought.
For three days and nights, Zhou Yu fell asleep on the corner frame on the top floor of the theory of fate. The only place he could think of to wait for the rabbit was here. Nika once said that she had come here countless times since she was a child, and maybe this was also the place where she went on a date.
On the night of the fourth day, a full moon night.
Zhou Yu, who was asleep, was awakened by the sound of squeaking under the tower. Someone's coming.
He quietly hid in a corner where neither the moonlight nor the fluorite illuminated, holding his breath and looking at his feet.
There was a cheerful whistle, accompanied by the sound of clattering footsteps. It's a woman. Most of the governors didn't dare to breathe, for fear that they would startle her and never find her again.
After a while, a familiar back climbed to the top. She sat on the windowsill, looked at the moon, took out a straw stick from her pocket and put it in her mouth, humming and not knowing what she was singing.
"Well, where are you?" Nika's grumpy voice came. The back of the woman in front of her was familiar and strange, and her eyebrows were full of mystery and eccentricity. Who the hell is "you" by her? Is it talking about yourself? The Metropolitan Governor shook his head in the dark and smiled bitterly, is he a little self-inflicted, they have only known each other for a few days, and they have only seen each other three times in total.
"Your wish is still far away. The daughter is not angry, and there are many places that are still incomprehensible. Daddy, I need your guidance. You hear me? The voice of resentment sounded again.
At this moment, a black shadow came out from behind, and hugged her from behind, as if she was being hugged by Xiong Er, and Nika's hair stood on end.
"I've finally caught you, see where you're going." The familiar ruffian's voice came from behind his ears.
"You, you let go!" Nika was furious and struggled violently.
"Don't let it go!"
"When you let go, where do you touch your hand? Rogue! Nika flapped her hands back, and the Governor dodged back and forth. This Nizi couldn't catch him when she saw it, so she bit Zhou Yu's forearm in a hurry.
The Governor was in pain, leaned forward, and rode on Nika's neck. The two lost their balance and fell off the ledge at the top of the tower together. The night wind, the hunting ground, blew over the faces of the two men.
It's over, it's all over. Tears welled up in Nika's eyes, and she fell a little slower in the air than her own body. She watched as the crystal clear little creatures whirled and fluttered in the air, contemplating their own deaths.
With a "woo", the Metropolitan Governor whistled.
Just as the two of them were about to hit the ground and fall on the pile of rubble and become fleshy mud, a huge thrust hit from the side. A hot thing grabbed its collar and ran at breakneck speed.
It's a little sand.
Zhou Yu whistled, and Xiao Sha, who was swimming at the bottom of the tower, saw the opportunity for the two to land, a carp jumped over the dragon gate, and the two big mouths grabbed the clothes behind the necks of the two one by one, picked them up, and ran outside the forbidden land.
"You? You! Nika, who was sitting on the back of the dog, was shocked, she raised two small fists, and no matter what the routine, she hit Zhou Yu's face and chest with a few heavy hammers.
"Ahh Stop it! Zhou Yu grabbed her one by one.
"Don't, don't make a fuss! I said, let's do business? Zhou Yu subdued the manic Nika and pressed her under him. Nika tilted her head to the side and didn't look into his eyes. Because if you are coming, you are too close to him.
"W-What business?" The delicate breath soothed a little.
"How about we go find the Wings of Mercy together?"
"What? You know it all? ”
"Nonsense, or do you think I've been waiting here for days on end to eat your tofu? Miss, you think too highly of yourself, right? Save it, Lao Tzu has so many confidants, what is like a flower, hibiscus, and a phoenix, which one is not a hundred times stronger than you? Zhou Yukou said with a smile.
Nika obviously didn't know who he was talking about, but the temptation to go to the Wings of Mercy together was quite big. She didn't speak, lost in thought.
"What? Don't want to know about this collaboration? ”
"Y-How do you want to work together?"
"As for me, I have three holy relics in my hand, and you have seen them all. I also have a Son as a guide, and that's what I'm worth. Zhou Yumei said with a smile.
"Then you're going to find it, what else do you want me to do?"
"But, I don't know how to get to Holy Son Island. It is said that the island is on the sea of Kuojiao. Ordinary people can't go up! The Governor looked embarrassed.
"You—You don't even know how to get up?" Nikaki said that it was strange to her that a man with three relics and a guide was actually blocked on the route.
"Yes, how can you go up to the sea in the mountains?" Zhou Yu spread his hands.
"Take the elevator!"
"What? Lift? Zhou Yu's eyes widened wider than a cowbell. He really wanted to smack himself a few times to see if it was in a dream.
