Chapter 463: Dawn (12)
Waking up from his sleep, Lin Qingxuan patted his head in some pain.
After lying on the bed for a long time, she opened her eyes, rolled over and sat up, and carefully examined her surroundings.
The space is cramped, the sight is gray, the musty wooden bed is slightly shaking, the waves in the ears, and the salty humidity of the sea water from the nose seem to ...... It is in the cabin.
"Is it ...... at sea?"
She smiled slightly, but her expression was not as relaxed as it seemed.
In fact, people are really strange animals, and the original purpose is obviously not like that, but after some very memorable things, they will still change subtly.
Speaking of which, her relationship with that person is a bit complicated.
From an ordinary person to an extremely ordinary person, to a cultivator who blooms everywhere and calmly lays out, that guy can be said to be her guide, and it is also the reason why she can't help herself.
Originally, after that person completely disappeared, she should have felt relaxed, but because of that guy, she walked on a muddy road.
When she was a child, her life was originally carefree, but one day, a hole seemed to have broken in the depths of her mind, as if some demons and monsters had escaped, giving her some more memories that did not belong to her.
And since these more memories, her originally ordinary life has finally changed.
Lin Qingxuan didn't know that in the whole world, there seemed to be more and more women in her condition, as if some taboo had broken and wanted to come to this world.
Probably because it was a little stuffy in the cabin, she finally walked out of the cabin and onto the outside deck.
The lights of the watchtower were still on, and the lamps swayed slightly, and the night watchman above was silent, as if he had fallen asleep.
The sea breeze blows slowly at night, which is very cool, and makes people feel refreshed.
She looked out to the sea and vaguely saw several behemoths floating quietly in the seaβthere were the convoys of the major sects in Zhongzhou, and the escort warships responsible for transporting their group of monks to Daluo Prefecture.
It was late at night, and it seemed that because of the events of the evening, there was no one moving around on deck.
Lin Qingxuan stood in front of the railing by herself, looking at the sea for a while, and then planned to go back to the cabin to rest, but at this time, she saw a sneaky black shadow around the corner.
Frowning slightly, she thought about it for a moment, but still touched it quietly.
After all, this ship was a large ship carrying hundreds of monks, and the night watchman of the watchtower was lazy, and if she was touched by a kraken or something, the whole ship would be bleeding, and this kind of thing was something she didn't want to see, although it was not very likely.
However, when I got closer, I found that it was not what I imagined, and the sneaky figure seemed to be a human being, shrugging its shoulders and sobbing.
Judging from the back, this should be a young girl, wearing a cyan gown, with a pattern of Qingluan on the sleeves, he recognizes that this is the standard dress of the Qingluan faction, and it should be a student of the Qingluan faction.
And Lin Qingxuan himself is also a member of the Qingluan faction, so he is naturally the same as this little girl.
It's just that she is naturally light, and she probably can't do this kind of comforting thing, so after looking at the girl's back for a while, she plans to retreat silently.
But at this moment, the little girl seemed to have discovered something, and suddenly turned around, revealing a little face with pear blossoms and rain.
Looking at each other, the little girl was startled, and with a flash of her instinct, she instantly withdrew five or six steps, concentrating on guard.
It can be seen that the little girl's skills are good, and her cultivation has already entered the hall, but Lin Qingxuan is not afraid that she will suddenly hurt people, after all, her own Dao realm is too much beyond that little girl.
"You...... Who are you?"
The little girl is quite beautiful, with long hair, tall and fair-skinned, and when she looks at Lin Qingxuan with watery double Danfeng eyes, she looks delicate and cute, and has a little sense of pity.
Just when he glanced at Lin Qingxuan's clothes, the other party seemed to be aware of her identity, after all, as long as the people on the boat should be students on the boat like her, thinking of this, a trace of fierceness in the corner of the little girl's eyes had disappeared, she quickly wiped it on her little face, took a step back, and hid in the shadow part of the hull.
Lin Qingxuan was stunned, considered the wording, and was about to speak, but was preemptively blocked by the little girl in the shadows: "I don't sleep in the middle of the night, what are you wandering around on the boat, beware of being taken away by the kraken." β
I can feel her biting her lip and looking ashamed, after all, it is also a big or small thing to break the other party's crying nose, and it is not impossible to fight on the spot with a good face.
"Today's events, you are not allowed to talk about them. Otherwise......" The voice that was deliberately muffled was crisp, and she thought about it, as if she was thinking of a suitable threat.."Otherwise...... It's going to be miserable anyway, really, I'm going to be able to fight. β
The little girl glanced at Lin Qingxuan fiercely, pretending to be fierce, but with her flowery cat-like little face, it made people feel threatened at all, anyway, Lin Qingxuan couldn't help but want to laugh.
"Well, I just went out for a walk at night and didn't see anything. Lin Qingxuan smiled, looked at the void very familiarly, and looked like he had come out to see the moonlight.
It's just, the void tonight...... It's as black as ink.
It seemed that she knew that her performance was not very convincing, the little girl stomped her feet, and then blushed, ignoring Lin Qingxuan, the little girl went to the other side of the ship, well, it seemed to be the second entrance to the ship, where some well-off monks probably lived.
Lin Qingxuan smiled, then shook his head and left.
Tonight's events were just a little spice in life, and for her, it was just a few more ink spots on the ink-soaked paper.
Eventually, she returned to the small, damp, dimly lit cabin.
It's not that she can't live in a cabin with better conditions as her, but the room arranged by the sect before has been placed by her who fell into the water, and after her cabin is occupied, then she can only come to the bottom of the cargo and live in this environment temporarily.
The shipbuilding level of the Seven Sects of Zhongzhou is very good, perhaps because of the cultivation of such transcendent things, the ships that generally sail on the sea are made of steel, and the volume will be very large, for example, the big ship she is in is at least nearly three hundred meters long, and compared with the volume of the Void Warship, it must not be too inferior.
This kind of ship is generally divided into three layers, the lowest cabin is mainly for some food, fresh water, common raw materials for cultivation, and some energy crystals that drive the hull defense, and the first and second floors from the deck are the places where the personnel live.
Of course, sometimes when there are more people in the entourage, some people will still be placed in the cabin, especially this time to Daluozhou, the entire ship has seven or eight sects and some disciples of six or seven hundred, the location is definitely not enough, and the sect forging this big ship also requires a cost, the position of the first and second floors will not be too much, most of them need to pay some fees, those are some children with bright families, and some of the poor ones can probably only succumb to the free cabin.
In the first floor of the ship's control room, pieces of letter paper passed on the hands of several figures.
Most of the people who are here are the leaders of the major cultivation sects, many of them are from famous families, and there are quite a few people with outstanding talents, and they are probably the core of the disciples of each sect.
"This is passed on from Zhongzhou this morning, and some news has been recorded, so everyone can take a look. β
As the eldest son of the Qingluan Zhang family, he is not only the elder brother of the Qingluan faction, but also a relatively outstanding figure of the younger generation, and has long been cultivated by the Zhang family as the core of a generation.
Looking at the above information, Liu Zongyuan slapped his palm on the table: "The Hiltai Golden Khanate deceived people too much, and even took advantage of the Zongmen to go to Daluo Prefecture and began to increase troops on the border, deliberately provoking, but it was impossible to plan to start a war. β
"It's expected, Hiltai won't let us meddle in the affairs of Da Luo Prefecture, but it won't go to war, after all, it's not a simple matter, and besides, the sect should have corresponding countermeasures, and the Elders' House has a lot of power this time. Rhythmically tapping on the table, the chapter inquiry responded.
Some people also noticed another message from the letter: "Elder Zhan Tai has gone to Yiguo, if some strategic layout is reached, it should be of some use to the situation on the border." β
"I'm afraid it's not necessarily. β
"Oh?"
"Yi is located in the eastern continent, although the strength is extremely strong, but in recent years, its relationship with the central Qian Empire is on the same level, it is said that a month ago, Yi Guo has already made some big moves. β
"Big move?"
"That's right, before leaving Zhongzhou, the price of space materials in the Eastern Continent has been high, if there is no Yi Guo in it, I will definitely not believe it. β
"Brother Qin's family history is also a disciple of the first seat of the Supervision Academy, and some news must not be mistaken. β
In this way, Yi Guo intends to ...... Open up a void passage?"
"If Yi Guo and Qianguo fight, doesn't Taihe Palace care?"
"Now Taihe Palace's attitude is ambiguous and difficult to find, and I can't see through it at all!"
"It seems that the relationship between Yi and Guo can not be counted on. β
"What an eventful season!"
A dozen or so young men and women who were relatively outstanding exchanged views with each other and expressed some opinions on the current situation, and then withdrew the topic to the study of Daeluoju.
Although this trip to Da Luo Prefecture can be regarded as a forcible arrest of Zhuang Ding, but the seven factions will obviously have corresponding compensation, with their respective circle channels, they have already known something, otherwise they would not have ventured to Da Luo Prefecture, after all, there are not enough benefits, I am afraid that they will not be able to attract this group of children who think very highly of themselves.
The chapter inquiry next to the astrolabe quickly translated a letter paper, this is the "compensation" plan that the sect has already transmitted, not only their group of disciples, the compensation plan is applicable to anyone in the seven factions, everyone gathered around the chapter inquiry, carefully looked at the content of the letter, and slowly analyzed.
This piece of paper almost represents the result of the game between the major forces of the seven factions, and it was issued by the House of Elders of the Seven Factions, which can be regarded as the largest action of the Seven Factions in Zhongzhou.
A letterhead is a list of merits, listing all kinds of information, which roughly means a list of benefits exchanged.
Obviously, the seven factions have made compromises in all aspects, and the appearance is not so ugly.
After all, this trip to Daluo Prefecture is not something that a certain person or a certain force can accomplish, and joint digestion is what the seven factions should do.
Afterwards, everyone studied it carefully, rubbed hundreds of copies, left the room, and each of them was responsible for some sects and began to distribute them.
Watching the departure of these dozen guys, Zhang Xun played with a wrench on his thumb and sat on the chair thinking about things.
It's that he pretends to be deep, but there are some things, he has always been a little unable to see through, wrapping the sect to send them to Daluo Prefecture, after all, the real purpose of this trip, I'm afraid it is not as simple as imagined.
At this time, a man with a seven-point resemblance to him walked in, the man's face was like a crown of jade, his lips were red and his teeth were white, and he also had the style of a rich man.
"Brother. β
"Oh, it's Zidong. β
This is his brother Zhang Zidong, although he is not a fellow mother, but the relationship between the two is not bad, and he is also a close person in the Zhang clan.
"By the way......" seemed to think of something, he raised his eyebrows..."I heard, someone fell into the water today?"
"Hmm. Zhang Zidong lowered his eyelids and poured a glass of water and poured a sip...... I said, brother, why are you asking this?"
"Why are you asking this?" Zhang Xun's face was serious, and he took out the demeanor of an eldest brother.."I had a quarrel with someone and knocked someone into the sea, can you shut up the people on the boat?"
"I ...... Who called that person so weak, I just bumped it lightly, and he ......" Zhang Zidong muttered quietly, however, seeing Zhang Xun's face getting colder and colder, he smiled brightly twice, and hurriedly poured a glass of water for the eldest brother. "Brother, don't worry, I promise not to cause trouble again in the future. β
Looking at Zhang Zidong's appearance of patting his chest with an oath, Zhang Xun's expression was still indifferent.
He stood up, carrying one hand on his back and the other in front of his abdomen, but he looked awe-inspiring.."This trip to Daluo Prefecture is different from the past, and it is not clear what the situation is inside, and if there is any danger at the bottom, it is not yet known if there is any danger. At this time, it is time to gather all the power that can be condensed, just on this ship, there are no less than hundreds of disciples of various sects, even if it is an ant, it has his due value, if he can control a force for my use, it is not an opportunity for the rise of my Zhang clan. β
"As a disciple of the Zhang family, what should you do...... It's Corporal Lixian, humiliating and making friends, not eating, drinking, and having fun, beckoning cats and dogs. You know, you have grown up, you are no longer a child, and there should be a scale for fooling around, and you also have to think about it for the family. Zhang Xun raised his head and looked at the sea outside the window, with a cold expression... "If you are bullying people like relying on the name of my Zhang family, be careful that I report to the clan and expel you from the Zhang family?" β
"Brother......
"Words...... I don't want to say it a second time. β
"I ......" Zhang Zidong gritted his teeth, and his face darkened.
"What's wrong with your hand?" As if he had just seen his arm, Zhang Xun was slightly stunned, frowned and asked.."Why are you so careless?"
Zhang Xun's words softened, but Zhang Zidong said angrily: "I was caught by that person, and I don't know how to get so strong, my arms are scratched, and now they are all slightly numb." β
"Go find the ship doctor and get some medicine, don't get into trouble. Zhang Xun sighed.
"I see, brother. Zhang Zidong narrowed his eyes, but in the depths of his eyes, a touch of blush suddenly flashed......
