Chapter 12 Going to Sea
There is a border town in the southwest of Yanzhou called Qianxun, the town is close to the Qionghai Sea in the south and the west is close to the island, due to the geographical location is the water and land transportation node between Yanzhou and the island, the two continents will stay here in the past.
A group of people outside the town are entering the city, it is Jiang Zhengyuan and his party, at this time, just like the past merchants, they passed through the town to the coast of the Qionghai, there is a big wharf here, the wharf is full of people, Yan and the two continents are in an endless stream of ships.
Jiang Yuanzheng instructed his entourage: "Wait until you take a boat to Huzhou first, stay near the Weihe wharf for a few days, and remember not to reveal your identity." ”
After his entourage had dispersed, he walked slowly on the docks, as if he were walking and looking for something.
At one end of the pier, a number of local fishing boats are preparing to go to sea, and among them is a middle-aged man with dark skin sorting out his nets.
Jiang Zhengyuan stepped forward and said, "Little brother, I want to go to a sea area, can I charter your boat?"
The middle-aged man looked up and saw an old man in a cloth robe with white hair hanging down his chest.
The middle-aged man said, "Old man, you can call me Ah Gui, where are you going?"
Jiang Yuanzheng said with a smile: "The southern suburbs are thick, the laurel tree is also straight, people are as their name suggests, Ah Gui, you will know where the old man is going to go to sea later, you don't have to get fishing nets first, let's go now." Jiang Zhengyuan said as he took out a money bag and handed it to Ah Gui.
Ah Gui opened the money bag and saw a lot of gold in it, and immediately said: "Master, this is too much, it is enough to buy my ship." ”
Jiang Zhengyuan smiled and said, "This gold is useless to me, you can accept it." ”
Jiang Zhengyuan's words seemed to have magic power, Ah Gui didn't shirk after hearing it, put the money away and began to pack up the fishing equipment on the boat, and after a while, he said to Jiang Zhengyuan: "Master, please get on the boat." ”
The fishing boat swayed with the waves, Ah Gui shook the oars vigorously, Jiang Zhengyuan stood on the bow of the boat and looked into the distance, Ah Gui knew at this time that the old man on the bow was not a mortal.
Ah Gui looked at the gradually overcast sky and the distant sea and said to Jiang Zhengyuan: "Immortal Chief, you told me to go west, I have been rowing for two hours, you see that if there is a storm coming this day, I am afraid that the boat will not be safe." Gui said as she remembered the terrible storm half a year ago.
"Go on. A faint voice came from the bow of the ship.
After a while, Ah Gui suddenly stopped, looked left and right, and said, "Immortal Chief, I seem to have been here before." ”
"Oh, how do you know about the vast sea?" Jiang Zhengyuan said.
At this time, Ah Gui also came to the bow of the boat and pointed to the distance and said: "Immortal Chief, look, there is a shadow in the distance, it is an island, and I know the small island near the Dome Sea, and I have only seen that island once by chance, so I have an impression." ”
Jiang Zhengyuan nodded after hearing this and said, "It makes sense, but you said that you met by chance, can you tell me about it?"
Gui began to recall: "It was half a year ago, I was fishing in a place we passed by in front, suddenly the sky was cloudy, the sea became rough, the boat was uncontrollable in the storm, I lay in the boat and clung to the bottom of the boat, and after the storm I found a sea area that I had never been to before, and when I was observing, I found the island in the distance. ”
Jiang Zhengyuan muttered to himself: "The storm is rising?"
Gui continued, "I also saw a fairy fall from the sky that day. ”
Jiang Yuanzheng heard this and said to Ah Gui: "Tell me carefully, what kind of fairy fell where?"
Ah Gui thought for a while and said: "When the storm was very strong that day, I lay on the boat and looked up at it, and I was very surprised when I saw a figure, and I thought I was dazzled, and then I looked carefully, the figure was wearing a skirt and her hair was very long, I thought she was a woman, but she was not flying or fell, and I don't know where she fell in the end." ”
Jiang Zhengyuan thought for a moment and then asked, "Was the wind blowing in the direction of the island that day?"
Ah Gui thought for a moment and said, "It should be, otherwise I wouldn't have drifted here." ”
"Let's go to that island. ”
"Okay. ”
Ah Gui suddenly asked the fairy chief, and felt that the fairy he saw that day might have been blown to the road, so he rowed the boat even harder.
The island is getting closer and closer, and Ah Gui seems a little excited, and he will follow Jiang Yuanzheng after parking the boat.
Jiang Yuanzheng turned to him and said, "You just wait for me here." ”
Reluctantly, Gui went up the boat and straightened his neck to look inside the island.
Jiang Yuanzheng walked inside the island and looked at it while walking, then closed his eyes, and a ripple spread outward around him, covering the entire island in a few breaths, and the structure and shape of the island were presented in his mind.
There are only a few reefs on the island, and there are no living creatures, and there are three caves in the east, south, and north of the island, among which there are some traces of the cave in the north, Jiang Zhengyuan instantly turned into a streamer and then appeared in the cave.
The cave was not deep enough for a man, and there were some burnt pieces of wood and some fish bones in the cave.
Jiang Zhengyuan took out a crystal and put it on the ground, and then recited Xuandu's hand to pinch the law seal, and used the divine source to teleport into the crystal.
The crystal glowed brightly, and time went back in time around the cave, and finally time stood still.
At this time, there is a wet woman in the cave, the woman has a pair of golden horns on her forehead, and her long golden-purple hair is wet and sticking to her body, the woman is the demon princess Ziqing who asks for medicine from Tianmen, she is sitting with a pale face and holding her knees at the moment, her bright long skirt is full of mud, looking at the cluster of bonfires in front of her in a daze, as time goes as time as the woman goes to the sea to catch fish and eat and rest, and exercises cross-kneeling at night to absorb the essence of moonlight, Ziqing flies to Yanzhou every day for a month.
In the cave, Jiang Zhengyuan collected the power and returned to the source crystal and returned to normal, he put away the crystal and walked out of the cave, looked at the sky above and looked at the direction of the western continent, and said to himself thoughtfully: "This place is so far away from the Hongqiao of the Demon Clan, what happened in Hongqiao?"
A transmission note was sent from the island, far away in the holy capital of Zhongzhou, Emperor Sui was fiddling with the chess pieces in front of the chessboard, and a spark flickered in the space in front of him, and a transmission note appeared in front of him, he slightly sensed the transmission note and turned into nothingness, looked at the chess pieces under his hand and said, "Good means." ”
In the depths of the mountain, two figures are on the edge of a lake, the man is meditating and cultivating, and the woman is sitting quietly on the edge and looking at the moon reflected in the lake, and her eyes are gradually moistened.
"Is there a moon in your hometown?" Gongye Zhuo had already stopped cultivating, sat on the edge of Fu Yao, and looked at the moon in the water together.
"In our hometown, it's called Yaolun. Ziqing said, and beautiful scenes appeared in front of him.
