The five of them gradually approached, but they saw that there were nearly 100 sailors in front of them, and under the reflection of the blood-red sun, it was as if they were painted with a layer of orange-red glaze. The battleship was full of silver-white armored warriors, all holding spears and halberds, looking at them strictly and heroically, and they were really mighty soldiers. At the bow of each battleship stood a pair of black-barreled cannons draped in red silk, with pitch-black muzzles and red satin, like two black-faced strong men in red robes, looking forward to the sea, heroic and mighty. On each battleship, there were two large yellow and green flags, but due to the distance, the font number on the flag was not real for the time being, and it was impossible to identify it for a while.

"Senior brother, this doesn't look like the fleet of the East China Sea State!" Xuan Jizi said to Lei Zhenzi who was parallel to him.

"Yes, the East China Sea Dragon Court has always used to drive alien beasts and demons as its main means, even if there are ships going to sea, there are not a few, they usually only bring a few large boats, which are just extravagant props for pomp and showmanship. Lei Zhenzi groaned.

"Could it be that the other water states of the seventy-two islands in the East China Sea?" asked Fairy Mei.

"Among the states of the East China Sea, the kingdom of adults, the country of small people and the country of gentlemen, it is said that the ancestors of our Huaxia tribe migrated thousands of years ago, and they have the habit of building ships and making boats, but their skills are backward, and the boats are very small, not as big as the boats of our Qingyang Mountain. "Cloud Neutron Road.

This senior brother has been practicing medicine in the world all the year round, traveling all over the world, and knows a lot of rumors and allusions in the world, and he knows a lot about the relics, which can be described as well-informed, and he is considered to be a wise star in the "Qingyang Five Xuan".

"The point is that this ship is carrying red-coated cannons, the states of the East China Sea, I haven't heard of anyone who has the skill of using gunpowder and firearms?" But he usually speaks with a very loud voice, and even if he talks to himself, his voice is loud, and everyone can hear it clearly.

"Could it be that this is our fleet of sailors of the Great Hua Dynasty?" Shang Qingtian asked.

The young man's words woke up the four masters of the "Xuan" generation, and everyone nodded in acquiescence.

"I've been fighting all day, and my nerves have collapsed too much, and I always like to think about the worst when I encounter abnormal situations, maybe it's really like what Qingtian said!" sighed the head of the house, Xuan Jizi.

"Boy, you can do it!" Fairy Mei turned her head to look at Shang Qingtian and praised.

"Hey, hey, I'm guessing, too. Shang Qingtian smiled shyly.

"Intuition and mental feeling are sometimes better than a lot of thinking. "Yun Neutron also felt it.

"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, anyway, we'll see it in a while, don't worry. Lei Zhenzi shouted.

......

The five of them got closer and closer.

Seeing the five of them coming in on the waves, Ling Bo immediately sent a large ship to sail head-on in the afterglow of the setting sun, and the yellow and green flags on the ship were waving in the wind. As the two sides approached, they finally saw the words on the flag, the golden flag was embroidered with two red characters "Dahua", and the blue flag was embroidered with two golden characters "Zhennan", and the Qingyang faction finally put their minds at ease.

A burly general wearing a red tasseled gold helmet and golden armor stood on the bow of the ship like a golden pagoda, and after sailing closer, he arched his hands and shouted: "Are you the Taoist leaders of the Qingyang Sect?"

Xuan Jizi hurriedly stepped forward and replied: "Exactly! Poor Dao is the head of the Qingyang faction, Xuan Ji! Dare to ask the general's surname?"

"Oh!" there was a hint of surprise in the other man's tone. The last general is Zhang Heng, the partial general of the Zhennan General's Mansion, because he heard the thunder of the horn drum on the sea in the morning, and saw that the wind and clouds changed suddenly and impermanently, and he knew that there was a sea battle between the Zun faction and the East China Sea Dragon Court, so he reported to the Zhennan General Ning Hou Ye early. Today, on the orders of Ning Guohou, the general of Zhennan, he specially led 80 warships and 20,000 sailors to this Yuanwang Island, ready to respond at any time in case of accidents. However, I did not receive any urgent or request for help from your faction, and I did not dare to make any claims, so I did not act rashly. May I ask the head of the sect, how is the situation on the battlefield?"

Xuan Jizi said: "General Zhang has worked hard! Thank you General Zhennan for your concern! Thank you Marquis Ning! There was a misunderstanding between the East China Sea Dragon Court and my Qingyang faction, and they robbed two disciples of my Qingyang faction and Ziyang faction, which caused a little conflict, and now the two sides have reached an understanding, the people have been released, and the dispute has been resolved, so there is no trouble and harassment General Zhennan." ”

General Zhang Heng said: "This is very good! Hou Ye has also hurried here, and now he is on the Zhulong Platform on this Yuanwang Island, Hou Ye specially ordered him to attach to him, and asked the Taoist elders to go to the island to rest for a while. Please the head of the sect and a few Taoist masters to swing the immortal drive, please get on the boat!"

Xuan Jizi said: "It's getting late today, and we still have a lot of urgent matters that need to be rushed back to the mountain, and we will deal with it immediately, so we won't go to bother!

General Zhang Heng hurriedly returned the salute and arched his hand: "Since this is the case, it is up to the head of the family!

The head of Xuanji waved his hand again and returned the salute: "Thank you General Zhennan! Thank you General Zhang! Farewell!"

After hurriedly bidding farewell to the naval fleet of the Zhennan General's Mansion, the five of them hurriedly marched forward on the waves. After walking for about half an hour, they walked out of the sea, into the mouth of the great river, out of the shroud of the blood-colored sun, and into the overwhelming silver moonlight.

The sun had already quietly set, and a bright moon had quietly risen from the sea. It is said that the moon of fifteen is sixteen round, it seems that this is really the truth, tonight's moon is extraordinarily round, extraordinarily bright, and extraordinarily bright. Because the moonlight shone brightly, I didn't feel how dark it was, and the night had crept down. The stars in the sky are as light as a veil, but the river is far away, the starlight is there, twinkling, and the slight light still exists.

The bright moon is like a round jade plate silver lamp, illuminating a river and a sea of heaven, the moonlight is like a mist, pouring down all over the sky, and like flowing water, overflowing the river. On both sides of the river, the long mountains and peaks are continuous, and you can faintly see the high platforms standing on them, which are said to be the beacon towers when the north and the south were fighting for hegemony three hundred years ago. Now the halberd sinks into the sand, things have changed, the willow branches under the mountain, the graceful water, the plum fruit on the mountain is fragrant, and the sky is leisurely; only this towering beacon fire platform can still remember the fight and conquest for thousands of years.

After walking for a while, I suddenly heard the upper reaches of the river, with a cool summer breeze, there was an intermittent distant flute sound, there was a desolate and rich feeling, like a wisp of fairy flute in the clouds, it was very expressive. After a while, the sound of the flute turned into a rich singing voice, and the melody was still the melody of the long flute just now, perhaps because it became the original singing of a real person, it sounded very touching, but I couldn't hear what the lyrics were. The singing is getting louder and louder, and the distance should be getting closer and closer, and suddenly the singing is high-pitched and loud, and the five people are looking for prestige, but they see a bamboo and green boat, turning out of the mountain gap upstream and floating down the river. A white-haired and silver-bearded Jiangzhu fisherman, dressed in a soap-colored silk coat, with an independent boat head, drifting along the water, facing the moonlight, singing loudly. The lyrics of the song are gradually being heard clearly:

"Xiajiang Shangyue, Zhou Ji and Qin Ge, competing for dominance. Looking at the night sky, the river and Han are faint, the Wei and Jin mountain platforms, the north and south beacon fires, the willows follow the water, the plum peach encloses the pond, and the boating river and sea play the flute. Don't be surprised, hear the song song and the song of the bright moon?"

Lei Zhenzi hurriedly forked to Xuan Jizi's side and asked loudly, "Senior Brother in charge, do you hear what this song means?"

Xuan Jizi stopped and said: "The melody is desolate and distant, and the singing voice is rich and refreshing, like a nostalgic song for the past and the present, but the lyrics are very obscure. Big brother, didn't you hear something?"

Yun Zhongzi also stopped, and pondered: "The opening song Jiang Yongyue, and using the names of the two great powers of my Huaxia clan in the early days, 'Xia' and 'Shang', 'Zhou Ji Qin Ge' is not very understandable, but from the perspective of 'fighting for hegemony', it should be a prophecy, right? It would be nice if Xuan Ming, a great talent, was here. ”

Fairy Mei said: "You guys stop talking loudly first? Listen! ”

Everyone had already stopped, but after hearing the previous lyrics and singing them twice, they really sang new words:

"Twenty-four volumes of the Bundle Pavilion, Zonglutai and Afang are all dusty. Sigh the overlord is eloquent, but only a hundred years; the body is high, the skin is grassy; the vicissitudes of the sea, the mountains and rivers are shaking, and the river is fishing and burning for thousands of years. Suspicious crossing, see pavilions and pavilions, ancient children and now me. ”

With the vigorous singing of vicissitudes, the white-haired old man in the clothes has floated to his eyes with the green bamboo boat. Xuan Jizi hurriedly stepped forward and bowed down, and said, "Ask the elder, your Xiaoyin song is very beautiful, may I ask what is the song name card?"

The white-haired old man smiled "haha" and said, "Jiang Zhu fisherman sings on the spot, how can there be any song noun card?"

Xuan Jizi said: "Wouldn't it be a pity that such beautiful lyrics and songs have no name and no brand?

The white-haired old man said: "Tonight, when the moon is in the sky, the river is crossing, and the scene is sung, so let's call it 'Yuejiang Song', right?"

Yun Zhongzi also stepped forward and bowed, and said: "The lyrics of this song, the first words of my Chinese ancestors, the two homelands of Xia Shang, the following words and sentences are obscure, and they seem to imply heavenly opportunities. We are stupid, and we still hope that the elders will teach us. ”

The white-haired old man said: "Look at your clothes, they are all masters of true enlightenment. This song is sung casually by the old man when he sees the scene, an improvised song, a song of self-amusement, how can there be any heavenly opportunity? Even if there is a heavenly opportunity, but the heavenly opportunity cannot be revealed, who can say it? If several Taoist masters like this song, then please sing it to yourself! Maybe the song has been sung a hundred times, and its implication will be self-revealed? The old man has been bothering a lot, and you have a Taoist master, so don't blame you!

The white-haired old man said that, and drifted away in the wind by boat, and the sound of the song sounded again:

"Xiajiang Shangyue, Zhou Ji Qin Ge, competing for dominance...... Don't be surprised, hear the song song and the song of the bright moon?"

"Twenty-four volumes of the Bundle Pavilion, Zonglutai and Afang are all dusty...... Suspicious crossing, see pavilions and pavilions, ancient children and now me. ”

"Moon River Song" is sung repeatedly, lingering endlessly. But the sound of singing is sometimes high-pitched and majestic, sometimes desolate and distant, intertwined with the sound of the tide of the open sea, the sound of the river, the sound of the summer wind and the chirping of night insects, blending with the night wind, encompassing the five people in the boundless moonlight......
