Wei Xiaoyue and Wei Xiaofeng sighed, they didn't expect to meet the Fire Charm Star, one of the Seven Stars of Tianshu, and couldn't help but think of the scene when their father was in power, "If my father is here, the Seven Stars of Tianshu will not fall!" ”

Wei Xiaoyue pondered for a while and said, "I didn't expect the Fire Charm Star to die at the hands of Qingxi Guan, what is the connection between him and the group of Yin soldiers in Suokou Village?" How could Qingxiguan get involved? ”

"We just came to Gongzhui, and we don't know a lot of things, but I think it has something to do with what happened on Mount Kongo." Lan Jiuming carried the sword, played with it for a while, and continued: "These two weapons can cut gold and jade, they are extremely sharp, we will keep them, they will be useful on the road in the future." ”

The three of them chatted along the way, and before they knew it, it was getting dark. Lan Jiuming looked around, it was deserted, there was no one nearby, and it was impossible to stay there. So they quickened their pace, hoping to find a place to rest before it was completely dark.

They didn't go far, the road under their feet became a little soft, and the three of them looked down and saw that it was all sand and gravel, "Could it be that we reached the river?" Wei Xiaofeng said to himself.

Lan Jiuming looked up and said with a smile: "I really let you say it!" ”

"Where is the river?" Wei Xiaofeng also learned from Lan Jiuming to look forward hard, but he didn't find anything.

Lan Jiuming pointed to Wei Xiaofeng, "Look over there, what is swaying in the wind should be a reed, the reeds grow in the water, look at this black oppressive piece, there must be a big river near here." ”

Wei Xiaoyue said, "Let's go and see." ”

They walked quickly to the river, and found that it did not look like a river, but more like a large pool of water, where the bright moonlight was reflected in the water, illuminating the surface of the water brightly, and the dense reeds stood in the water in a disorderly manner, and the black pressure stretched for dozens of miles.

"We can't get through the front, we have to find another way!"

"This body of water will take dozens of miles, to say the least, and it will take too much time to find another way around it." Wei Xiaoyue shook her head and rejected Wei Xiaofeng's suggestion.

"Our vision will be limited at night, and this water pool may not exceed dozens of miles."

"Brother Ming, what should I do next? We can't go back the way we came. ”

"Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and relying on the water to draft the water, this body of water is very large, there will definitely be a livelihood on the water, we will look for it along the shore, if there is a ferry, we can take a boat to cross it."

Wei Xiaoyue said: "Yes, it would be great if you could meet local fishermen!" ”

Wei Xiaofeng tiptoed slightly, flew up to a willow tree next to him, he stood on a high place, looked around, and finally found a little light in the distance, presumably there should be a ferry, Wei Xiaofeng fell from the tree, and pointed into the distance: "There is light over there, let's hurry over." ”

Lan Jiuming nodded, and reminded him: "There are a lot of livelihoods on the water, we have to be careful, if the fishermen are fine, if you encounter water thieves, you must be very careful!" ”

The three of them did not perform light skills, but walked forward slowly, and walked for a long time before they reached the light that Wei Xiaofeng saw. This is really a ferry, it seems that it has been some years, the old wooden stakes have cracked, as if there is a possibility of collapse at any time, there is a fishing boat on the water not far from the ferry, there is a fishing lantern hanging on the bow, flickering and flickering, gently swaying with the wind. A middle-aged man on the bow of the boat was sitting there fishing, and when he saw Lan Jiuming and the three approaching, he didn't plan to lean over, still staring at the water by himself.

Wei Xiaofeng was in a hurry, he took a step forward and said loudly: "Boatman, please come here!" ”

The man raised his head slowly, waved his hand, and ignored Wei Xiaofeng.

"Why didn't this person come?"

Wei Xiaoyue said: "Looking at his appearance, he should be a fisherman, and he didn't dare to dock for safety reasons." ”

After speaking, Wei Xiaoyue stepped forward and said, "Boat family, we want to ask for directions, can we bring the boat over and talk further?" ”

The man was still silent, staring at Wei Xiaoyue for a while, then turned his head and waved his hand impatiently.

"This person is so ignorant of lifting!" Wei Xiaofeng secretly lucked, and an arrow stepped out, like a dragonfly on the water, lightly touched the water, and landed on the boat. The man was startled by him, the fishing rod in his hand fell into the water, he quickly held the oar tightly in his hand, pointed at Wei Xiaofeng and said loudly: "What are you going to do?" ”

"Why don't you answer?"

"Why should I answer, get off my ship quickly!" The man waved the oars and was about to hit Wei Xiaofeng.

Wei Xiaofeng snatched the oars, "You are quite tough, I don't embarrass you, you put the boat on the shore first." ”

The oars in the man's hand were snatched away in an instant, knowing that he was not an opponent, he had no confidence, and said angrily: "The oars are in your hands, how can you tell me to dock?" ”

Wei Xiaofeng smiled and returned the oar to him, and the man rowed the boat stupidly and slowly landed on the shore.

Wei Xiaofeng said: "The boatman, I was rude just now, I can't compensate you!" ”

When the man saw him like this, he felt uncomfortable, and hurriedly replied: "Where are you talking, are you going to ask for directions?" ”

Lan Jiuming said: "Yes, big brother of the boat family, what kind of place is this?" ”

Seeing that the three of them had a refined temperament, not like wicked people, the man put aside a lot of worries in his heart and said: "This body of water is called Naguze, with a radius of six hundred miles, and the three of them must have deviated from the official road, otherwise they wouldn't be able to go here." ”

"We're going to the south, so we didn't take the official road." Lan Jiuming said, "It's just that I didn't expect to come here." ”

"South?" The boatman looked Lan Jiuming up and down and said, "There is a war going on in the south, what are you going to do there?" ”

As soon as Wei Xiaoyue heard that there was a war, she hurriedly asked, "Brother Boat, you can make it clear, who is fighting?" ”

"How could you not know about such a big thing?" The man looked at them suspiciously.

"We have been learning art in the mountains since we were children, and we have rarely dabbled in the world, and now we have completed our studies and are about to go home to find our relatives. Lan Jiuming said.

"So that's the case, seeing that you are not very old, you don't understand the disputes in this world, the south has been fighting for several years, the Dongming King of the Eastern God Department took the throne of Luo Xing Palace a few years ago, and became the master of the East God Department, and the four seas have been surrendered, only the southern Fengshen, Lin Array, Huoxing, and Shan'an are unwilling to serve, they are united, and the shadow army of the Dongming King has been fighting for several years, although they were defeated, but they took advantage of the natural danger to retreat to one side, and the Dongming King couldn't take it for a while, so it was a stalemate, and the war continued to escalate, Now the whole South has been reduced to a war zone! ”

Hearing this, Wei Xiaoyue's sister and brother couldn't control their inner emotions, and they were filled with joy and sorrow for a while. Sadly, when I heard Luo Xinggong, I remembered my father and mother, and remembered the past, so many years of displacement; The good news is that the four Fenglin Volcano Divisions under his father's command are still there, and they have been fighting with the Dongming King, which has greatly increased Wei Xiaoyue's confidence in recovering the country.

Lan Jiuming was also quite shocked, the military ability of the Dongming King was unmatched, especially good at commanding large-scale legion battles, and he was the god of war of the Eastern God Department. Although the Fourth Division of the Wind Forest Volcano is also a top-level army, there is still a big gap between it and the Shadow Legion of the Eastern Ming King, and it is really rare to be able to hold out for so long.

At this moment, Wei Xiaofeng couldn't wait to go to the south immediately, he said in a hurried tone: "Boat family, can you take us through Naguze?" ”

"Now?" The man hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, no, no! ”

"I'll pay you more!"

"It's not about money, the hydrology of Naguze is a hundred miles big, and the hydrology is so complex that my small boat alone can't pass through it, only the merchant ships on Luoxia Island can go."

"Luoxia Island is also in this Naguze?" Wei Xiaoyue asked.

"Yes, more than 50 miles away from here."

"Your ship should be fine when it comes to Luoxia Island!"

"This waterway is easy to walk, but it's okay during the day, but not at night!"

Wei Xiaofeng was anxious, and said loudly: "You boatman always talks halfway, why can't you do it at night?" ”

Lan Jiuming knew it in his heart, he stepped forward and arched his hand, and said: "Naguze has such a large body of water, and the waterways are crisscrossed, it must be a place where people from the rivers and lakes gather, boatman, the three of us don't understand the rules of the rivers and lakes, please give me more advice!" ”

Lan Jiuming said more implicitly, the so-called people in the rivers and lakes in this kind of place are nothing more than some gangsters.

"This brother is much more stable than you!" The man looked at Lan Jiuming, glanced at Wei Xiaofeng, and said: "That's right, Naguze has rules, you can take merchant ships during the day, and all kinds of materials can go to Luoxia Island for transit, which is relatively peaceful; But at night, Luoxia Island is not allowed to enter and exit, and all waterways are infested with strongmen. ”

"What is a plate knife surface?" Wei Xiaofeng asked.

The man couldn't cry or laugh, "Sure enough, it's a fledgling, I don't understand anything, and the plate knife noodles are killed and thrown into the water to feed the fish!" ”

Lan Jiuming said to the two of them: "It's really not safe to travel at night, it's better to wait until dawn and we will make plans!" ”

Wei Xiaoyue and Wei Xiaofeng were anxious, "This Naguze is more than 600 miles, we can't get around it at all, and it will take nearly half a day to get to Luoxia Island, Brother Ming, there is a war going on in the south, I am really uneasy, this boatman must be familiar with the rules here, it is better to give him more money, I think he must have a way to take us over!" ”

Lan Jiuming looked at Wei Xiaoyue quietly, feeling a little difficult in his heart; According to his experience, it must be extremely risky to rush across the water tonight. Wei Xiaofeng saw Lan Jiuming hesitating and said, "With our cultivation, even if we meet a strong man, are we afraid that he will not succeed?" ”

Lan Jiuming saw that the two of them were resolute, turned his head and said to the man: "Now take us to Luoxia Island, this is for you!" A bright light flashed, and a heavy ingot of gold fell steadily into the boatman's hand.

"This ...... It's really not possible at night, it's extremely risky! The man said, his eyes kept looking at the gold in his hand, and he was reluctant to leave.

"I know you have a way, when you get to Luoxia Island, there is still a reward!" Lan Jiuming looked at the man and didn't speak, and continued: "We are worried about our family in the south, and we can't wait to grow wings and fly back now, boatman, please take us to Luoxia Island!" ”

The man frowned, as if he had made up his mind, "Good! I'm going to do a good deed today, so get on board!" ”

Wei Xiaoyue and Wei Xiaofeng looked happy, and hurriedly got on the boat, Lan Jiuming looked around, and then also boarded the fishing boat. The man stretched out his oars and pushed lightly against the dock, and the fishing boat staggered off the shore and drifted into the depths of the water.
