"Harder, row!" said Gera as she stood at the bow of the boat, smugly.

“......”

There was practically no one rowing. After measuring the direction of the wind, Chu Kunyang decisively gave up his plan to row the boat back to Luo'an. The currents are too great to allow for the small power output of rowing. But after careful consideration, he found an alternative, which was to make sails out of goatskin. To be honest, he had considered this plan before, but he couldn't find the materials that could make sails. When Jayla appeared in front of him with a large pile of goatskins, he was dumbfounded.

"You didn't ask me. "Gella is right.

However, Chu Kunyang is not a person who is entangled in these small details, since he has the materials, the plan is certainly feasible. Chu Kunyang sewed these goatskins into a large piece, although it looked crumpled and a little ugly, but he tested it, the whole skin was impermeable, and he should be able to play the role of canvas.

As for the course, it's not a big deal either. They are against the currents. Beihai is connected to the Kui River, and in the summer, heavy rainfall brings a lot of rain. Rainwater collects from small streams to tributaries, then to the mainstream, and finally flows into Beihai through the Kui River. The turbid river water is particularly obvious in the clear current of the North Sea, and you can return to Shuzhong and then to Luo'an against the current.

They had been sailing at sea for more than ten days, and they had eaten enough food and run out of fresh water, but there was no shadow of land in the endless sea level of Shanghai. Jiera still had that happy expression, and Chu Kunyang sat on the bow of the boat with a blank face and closed his eyes to recuperate, which can reduce energy consumption for a few more days.

Suddenly, Chu Kunyang felt that someone was pumping the knife behind his back, and he pressed the hand on the handle of the knife: "What are you doing?"

"Lend it to me, do you want to eat fish?" said Geral, still trying to draw her knife.

"Eating fish?" Chu Kunyang didn't figure out the connection between drawing a knife and eating fish.

"Give it to me!" Gera Monkey hurriedly pulled out his knife and plunged it into the water.

A large amount of electricity was exported from the "thunder arc" and poured into the seawater, and an electric light lit up in the turbid seawater, like lightning that cut through the darkness, and the seawater on the surface boiled and white vapor rose.

But it's not just the water vapor that rises, but also a lot of fish floating up on their white bellies, from large bluefin tuna to small trout.

This is a good way, but unfortunately Chu Kunyang couldn't think of it. In his concept, a knife is a knife, and its purpose is a knife, and he didn't expect it to be so useful.

Relying on these endless fish, they survived the most difficult two days. When the currents in the sea are so muddy that you can't see anything below, the outline of the city looms on the horizon.

Shuzhong.

The city is famous for its delicate and soft texture of Shu brocade and beautiful women like flowers, and is known as the third center of Great Xia. The first was the imperial capital of Luo'an, and the second was the fiefdom of Chu Yunyang, Willett Province. The economy is so prosperous that it is said that officials who hold positions here can also take a percentage of their taxes as private income, and it is considered a semi-autonomous region.

For various reasons, a large number of officials apply to be transferred to Shuzhong every year, but often only a few people who are both related and willing to spend money can be transferred here, so if you serve in Shuzhong, even if you are just a petty official, you will win the envy of your colleagues.

The first thing they did after they went ashore was to buy clothes, and the clothes on their bodies had been worn for a long time, and they were in tatters, which did not match Chu Kunyang's identity.

They walked hand in hand through the blue brick paved streets, although the clothes Chu Kunyang was wearing were already very torn, and even ragged, but the natural temperament on his body really overwhelmed those clerks, otherwise they wouldn't even be able to enter the store.

In front of the dazzling array of hangers, Jaela happily gestured back and forth on her body. The clothes were as light as tulle, as soft as silk, and as colorful as they were in all shapes, and she had never seen them before, and she was as happy as a child who had been given candy.

Money is not a problem, Chu Kunyang still has dozens of gold coins, and he can buy a lot of clothes. Besides, now that he is standing on the land of Great Xia, he doesn't need money, as long as he flashes his sword, everyone in Great Xia will know that he is coming, and how many people have the courage to accept money from this national hero and army marshal?

By the time they came out of the store, they had already changed, and Chu Kunyang had changed into a white dress. The style of this dress was passed from abroad, and the tailors in Shu used high-grade Shu brocade to cut this kind of dress, and after Chu Kunyang wore it, the aura of the king was completely set off. Jiela wore a slit cheongsam of Shu brocade, which fit every delicate curve on her body, and set off her slender and slender figure to the extreme. Her face is already good-looking, her skin is fair, and her own smart look is a little more charming than those noble ladies.

They walked hand in hand on the bluestone road in Shuzhong, and the passers-by looked at them with appreciation. After nearly half a month of heavy rain, the sky is just clear, and the water stains on the bluestone pavement will not dry. The well-dressed boy pulls the fair-eyed girl, who stands on tiptoe and spins in circles on the slippery road, revealing her clear, slender calves.

"Is this a big city?" Jiela shook Chu Kunyang's arm: "Is Luo'an better?"

Chu Kunyang just wanted to answer, but a cold light flashed in front of him, and a shiny long sword was pointed at the center of his eyebrows. He looked up, and a dozen soldiers surrounded them with ill intentions, and the pedestrians in the street stepped aside one after another, for fear of offending the plague gods.

The one at the head is obviously from a big aristocratic family, and his outfit looks like a gentleman. They were the finest fabrics, hand-cut by the best tailors, and he smiled a little smugly at Jara, a smile that was lewd and debauched, and whose intentions were obvious to a discerning eye.

"Get out. There was no trace of anger in Chu Kunyang's words, as if this was his territory, and that gentleman should get out.

The people around all gasped, this gentleman named Li Zhi is the nephew of the governor of Shuzhong, and he has always been lawless in this place of Shuzhong, who is targeted by him is simply uncomfortable, but this young man who looks weak dares to let him go, doesn't he want to live?

"Boy, you're not a little daring. Li Zhi's face became gloomy, "You dare to walk on the streets with a weapon in broad daylight, and I will arrest you now for the crime of carrying a murder weapon!"

Originally, he didn't plan to make a big deal out of it, he just fell in love with Jiela's beauty, and wanted to flirt with this girl who looked different, and by the way, he was extorting a sum of money. As long as Chu Kunyang "knows" a little, he will be at ease. Looking at Chu Kunyang's dress, he is also a nobleman, and it is not good for anyone to make a big fuss, but Chu Kunyang doesn't seem to plan to calm things down.

Li Zhi said as he grabbed the swords on Chu Kunyang's back with his hands, the pair of swords were inserted in the sheath that Chu Kunyang had wrapped in strips of cloth, and they couldn't be seen from the appearance that they were anything special. Chu Kunyang grabbed Li Zhi's wrist and slowly exerted his strength!

Li Zhi felt that his hand was simply stuck in an iron tong and couldn't move, and Chu Kunyang's thin-looking fingers were exerting great strength at this time, almost crushing his bones!

Li Zhi has been pampered since he was a child, and he has suffered such grievances. One hand was pinched, and he immediately used the other hand to pull out the long sword at his waist. He did pull it out, he raised his long sword and slashed at Chu Kunyang. He is already crazy, his uncle is the governor of Shuzhong, and he can settle it by killing a nobleman's son.

Sharp cyan light splattered, and the ground was stained with crimson blood. Li Zhi rolled on the ground in pain with his severed hand, and the long sword also fell to the ground, and the soldiers who followed looked at each other, and they were all stunned at once.

It's so fast, so fast that no one can see Kunyang's movements clearly. Chu Kunyang's journey from drawing his sword to drawing his sword and then returning his sword to its sheath only happened in an instant, and at such a high speed, Li Zhi became crippled in an instant before he could react.

Dead silence, neither those soldiers nor onlookers dared to speak, at this moment Chu Kunyang exuded a dangerous smell of iron and blood, he looked so weak, but that momentum was inexplicably terrifying, just like a courtier could only tremble in front of an angry king!

Finally, a soldier mustered up the courage to step forward and speak: "Are you crazy, seriously injured the law enforcement soldier in public, his uncle is the governor of Shuzhong, you are ...... now?"

Before he finished speaking, Chu Kunyang raised his eyes and swept him, and the soldier suddenly felt that his tongue was no longer obedient, his brain was blank, and even his feet involuntarily went soft and wanted to kneel. There was a piece of ice in those ice-blue pupils, and he couldn't even make eye contact with it!

"Governor of Shuzhong?" Chu Kunyang's voice was as cold as his pupils, "Very good, now take me to meet this damn Governor of Shuzhong!"

The soldiers didn't dare to refuse, Chu Kunyang's voice was not loud, but that voice could simply destroy people's will, how could a lowly courtier dare to disobey the king's orders?

"Fuck you! Fuck you! How do you take care of Zhi'er, a bunch of rubbish! A bunch of rubbish!" In the Shuzhong Governor's Mansion, the bloated Governor of Shuzhong watched his nephew's severed hand jump like thunder, and in a fit of rage, he grabbed an expensive antique vase and smashed it at the subordinate who sent Li Zhi over: "Zhi'er's hand was cut off in public, what are you eating!"

The subordinate was also a very sleek person, he jumped and hugged the expensive antique vase, lightly put it on the ground, and looked flattering: "My lord is angry, how do we know that kid dares to do something to Young Master Li Zhi? According to the laws of our country, it is a big crime to commit murder in public, not to mention that the young master is still a law enforcement officer, but the crime is added to the crime, even if it is a nobleman, he can't be so arrogant!"

"What do you mean?" the Governor of Shuzhong stopped and took a breath, he was too bloated, he was tired and out of breath after a little strenuous exercise, this subordinate had something to say, and it was not impossible to listen to it.

"The nobles are guilty of the same crime as the common people. The subordinate racked his brains and thought about his words: "Even if he is a nobleman, we can correct him on the spot without waiting for instructions from above, we will report it first, and then kill him immediately." Even if someone in his family went to get through the relationship, it would be too late. By the time the instructions came back from Luo'an, we had already killed him 10,000 times. He made a motion to wipe his neck.

"Bastard, how can you kill him worthy of Zhi'er's hands?" the governor of Shuzhong became excited again as soon as he spoke, his current state was like a wild boar going crazy, and his beard was shaking with anger. He casually picked up the paperweight, inkstone, and pen holder on the bookcase and threw them at the subordinate. He had bought them for furnishings at a great price, and now he threw them away like garbage, completely ignoring the hard work of buying them: "What are you doing in a daze? Don't you go and catch that bastard!"

After saying this, the governor of Shuzhong was almost out of breath, his perennial comfortable life made his body much worse than before, and a little strenuous exercise made him out of breath. He walked out of the room step by step, thought for a moment and paced back, opened the desk drawer, and took out a delicate dagger, where he could wait to report it before he could do it, he was about to kill that bastard, he had been the governor of Shu for twenty years, and no one had ever dared to break ground on his head.

As soon as he walked into the office hall, his anger went up a notch, Chu Kunyang was sitting on the Taishi chair in his office with his eyes closed, and Jiela was happily running around the hall as if there was no one around. The soldiers all stood outside the hall and did not dare to approach, as if Chu Kunyang was the master here.

At this moment, the anger of the governor of Shuzhong could already be burned, and he overturned the table case in front of him and rushed over. The sandalwood table was so heavy that it almost brought him to his back, and with his fat body, the movement looked rather comical. He stretched out a finger with a pale face and pointed at Chu Kunyang, who was sitting upright, because of anger, the finger kept trembling: "Bastard, what are you all eating, I told you to arrest him, didn't you hear......

As soon as the governor of Shuzhong said this, Chu Kunyang opened his eyes halfway through. He turned his face sideways and looked directly into the eyes of the Governor of Shuzhong with his ice-blue pupils, and suddenly the Governor of Shuzhong's head exploded with a bang, like a basin of cold water splashed on his head, and he instantly sobered up a lot. Now the governor of Shuzhong does not have Li Zhi's severed hand in his mind, let alone a plan for how to deal with Chu Kunyang, and he will remember those ice blue eyes for the rest of his life. At the enthronement ceremony of the new emperor, he saw with his own eyes Chu Kunyang's murderous and unblinking ferocity, why did he appear here now? Was it because the bribe he received a few days ago was too big that it attracted the attention of the above? Was it the false account that he reported last year that was found out? The occasion for using Chu Kunyang's sharp blade of the country should not be Shuzhong, and the place where he should appear is the battlefield. Could it be that the emperor felt that he had a rebellious heart, so he asked him to come and crusade against him? Has his army arrived? A series of questions rolled through the mind of the governor of Shuzhong.

The fat face of the governor of Shuzhong was covered with fine beads of sweat, and his feet involuntarily trembled and wanted to kneel, feeling that his tongue was curling on his own and did not obey him. It was not easy to muster up the courage to stammer, "Your Highness, you, why are you here?"

Chu Kunyang didn't answer his question, he flipped his hand, and a cyan metallic luster flew out of his hand, brushed the governor's fat neck in an extremely subtle trajectory, and pressed against the gold-embroidered tent. An inch into the wall, the metal sword body trembled slightly on the wall, emitting a rhythmic hum.

There was no wind in the hall, and the collar of the governor of Shuzhong was silently torn apart from it, and a red mark slowly stretched out on his fat neck, and blood mixed with sweat flowed downward, like a poisonous snake pressing its fangs against your carotid artery. He trembled and turned his head to look at the cyan blade nailed to the wall, after a little blood, the sword body faintly showed cyan scales, and it was only the sword qi brought by this thing that scratched his neck.

The face of the governor of Shuzhong suddenly turned pale, and the people of Great Xia all knew this legendary blade, the exclusive weapon of the previous Xia Emperor, and now of course it can only be the "Great Xia Dragon King". What did the "Dragon King" mean by drawing his sword? Is he going to kill himself now? Do you want his subordinates to resist? Will resistance be effective? This guy's combat strength alone is equivalent to that of a well-equipped division!

The governor of Shuzhong's face was like ashes, and the situation at this moment couldn't be clearer, and he couldn't escape death. With ice-blue eyes and an indestructible blade of the country, there is no doubt that the young man in front of him is the Imperial Marshal, the decisive winner of the Dragon City Fortress, the noble imperial brother, and Chu Kunyang, who is known as the "Dragon King of Great Xia". According to the information brought back by his subordinates, the cause of the incident was that Li Zhi wanted to go to the teasing hall to blackmail Chu Kunyang from this seemingly harmless girl in the hall. How could he have such guts? Chu Kunyang is not close to women, and the girl who follows Chu Kunyang will not be very simple no matter how she looks at it. Dare to tease this girl, even if you are a high-level Chu Kunyang of Great Xia, he can kill you on the spot without a report, and cutting off a hand can only be said to be a little "merciful" punishment. No wonder the soldiers didn't dare to come forward to arrest him, whoever dared to catch this killing god would be tired of it, not to mention that with his identity, it was legal to do anything in the land of Great Xia, and he himself was a Great Xia law!

The Governor's bloated body sat on the floor, his muscles twitching uncontrollably, and he clearly understood how hard the iron plate that Li Zhi kicked this time was. In the past, no matter what trouble Li Zhi caused, he could get through the relationship and settle it, as long as he spent a little money. But this time it doesn't matter how much money it spends, and the crime of drawing a sword and cutting Chu Kunyang is to assassinate the marshal of the army, and Chu Kunyang can justifiably dismiss them and investigate them. Does this killing god have mercy? Will he take revenge on the family? Or will he be connected to the Nine Clans? Now the whole family will be guillotined by Li Zhi's dominance.

But Chu Kunyang did not punish him, and his tone was still cold and flat: "Tell me about the situation in China in the past two months." ”

The governor of Shuzhong originally thought that he would definitely die, but now it seems that things have taken a little turn for the better, he quickly got up from the ground and reported to Chu Kunyang respectfully: "There are only two major events in the country in the past two months, your sister Princess Willett signed a marriage contract with the Emperor of Anivia, and His Majesty the Emperor personally sent Anivia to learn advanced technology, are you not in the country so you don't know these things?"

"Sister?" Chu Kunyang frowned slightly, and then regained his composure: "From now on, I will requisition your governor's mansion, and I will immediately prepare a trip back to Luo'an for me, and I will return to the imperial capital in three days." ”

If the governor of Shuzhong encountered an amnesty, he never expected this big man to be so "easy to speak", at this time, anyone with a discerning eye knew what to do, and he carefully made a gesture of "please"; ”

At this time, Jara was trying to take down the fine porcelain vase from the bookshelf, but she was not tall enough to reach it on tiptoe, so she jumped up to get it. The people around looked at this "Dragon King's Woman" dumbfounded, according to common sense, Chu Kunyang must marry an extremely noble lady, these actions are not the upbringing that a young lady should have.

Even Chu Kunyang felt that her appearance was not very elegant, so he silently reached out and dragged her. The governor of Shuzhong pulled out the sword on the wall and handed it to him respectfully, and glanced at Jiela twice by the way. He felt that he had to curry favor with this "young lady," so he flattered him, "Your Highness, who is this?"

Chu Kunyang just glanced at him, and the governor of Shuzhong shut up knowingly, he knew that this big man was moody, and if he didn't start a fire, the cause would be immeasurable.

The look in Chu Kunyang's eyes was still indifferent, without joy or sorrow.
