Chapter 62: Coming Down the Sea

Yang Shucheng rushed into Shanhaiguan with the flow of people, and vowed to slash Wu Xiang and eliminate traitors for the country.

Suddenly, his sleeve was pulled by Qiu Lin, and he only heard him shout:

"Wait!"

"What's wrong?"

"You come with me."

Yang Shucheng had to be dragged by him and ran towards the distance outside the gate. On the left is the valley, the two ran into the valley, Yang Shucheng was full of doubts, seeing that he was about to enter the city, I don't know what his purpose was to pull himself here?

Qiu Lin said: "Yang Shaoxia, sit down, I'll analyze it for you." ”

Yang Shucheng casually sat on a cobblestone in the grass, Qiu Lin also sat down, and said, "Things are not so simple, I suddenly thought that since ancient times, there have been many things like this. ”

Yang Shucheng is also familiar with history, and many things like this have happened before, he looked at Qiu Lin, hoping that he would continue to talk about it.

Qiu Lin frowned, but did not speak immediately.

Yang Shucheng couldn't help but say: "General Qiu is saying that there are spies from the Jin Kingdom mixed in. ”

Qiu Lin said: "Things are far from so simple. He analyzed: "That traitor Wu Xiang can't do any bad things." He wants to shoot all the nearly 1,000 Ming troops as spies of the Jin State, and then show his merits to the imperial court. ”

When Yang Shucheng heard this, he suddenly realized and said, "General Qiu, you are right. That Cao Fengying is a traitor, Wu Xiang, who walked with him all the way, is still a good person, they want to kill their own people to fund the enemy country. ”

Both of them were angry, but they had no choice but to walk back and forth in the valley.

Sure enough, there was a terrible shout in the city, and the two of them wanted to rush into the city to save countless lives, but the city wall was so high that the two could fly into the city?

After nearly a thousand Liaoning soldiers walked into the urn city, they were really locked up in the urn city and were shot dead by all the soldiers in the city.

Wu Xiang, the general queen of Shanhaiguan, wrote overnight, saying that the Liaoning army was defeated, and the Jin soldiers rushed to the city of Shanhaiguan, and personally led the troops to rush out of the pass, fought with the Jin soldiers, killed more than 1,000 people, and won a great victory.

The emperor was very happy to see that he had lost a series of battles outside the Guanwai, and finally won a great victory today, and immediately issued a holy decree to reward Wu Xiang, and named him the Marquis of Dingguo, and was promoted to the secretary of the military department, and concurrently served as the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan. His son Wu Sangui inherited the Jinyi Wei Qianhu and went to Shanhaiguan to assist his father in resisting the Jin Kingdom.

Yang Shucheng and Qiu Lin stayed outside the Shanhaiguan for two days, and they couldn't wait to grow their wings and fly into the pass, but the city gate was tightly closed.

The two couldn't. It was decided to go north. After walking for two days, I came to the seaside, only to see that the vast sea, under the blowing of the north wind, the waves were surging, like a hill, a row of seamounts was falling, and a row of seamounts were surging, and the hearts of the two could not be calmed like the waves of the mountains.

There is a Great Wall in the south, and the two of them have a country that they can't return, Qiu Lin hesitated and sighed: "I want to be a ghost of the Ming Dynasty when I die, but how can I go back!" ”

How can you get through the war between the two countries and the city gates closed?

Yang Shucheng simply came up with an idea and said: "You can't go on land, let's cross the sea and go back." ”

Qiu Lin said happily: "Yang Shaoxia, you are right, let's cross the sea and go back." Looking at the undulating sea like a hill, he said, "We have been swimming eastward, to the outer ocean, and then to the south with the current." ”

"Okay."

The two of them had hope, and then they remembered that they were hungry. Walking to the beach, there are many tidal flats, and the two picked up some marine fish stranded on the tidal flats.

The two of them took the fish to the reef and made a fire to roast it. One man ate a few fish, and when his stomach was full, he lay down on the reef and basked in the sun.

It was already the sun in the west, and the two of them ate two more grilled fish. Look at the side where the sun is setting. As the sky grew darker, the north wind blew, and the night tide rose and fell like a thousand troops.

Qiu Lin looked at the sea, his mood could not be calm, and said to Yang Shucheng: "Yang Shaoxia, I am from Jiangnan, I have been reading poetry and books since I was a child, and I saw the internal and external troubles of the Ming Dynasty, so I gave up literature and martial arts and served the Ming Dynasty." I have been in the capital for nearly ten years, and this time I finally got a chance, but I didn't expect to be killed by Wu Xiang, a traitor. ”

Yang Shucheng said: "If God has mercy on us this time, we will go back to the south, and we must slash this traitor and eliminate harm for the country." ”

Qiu Lin excitedly shook Yang Shucheng's hand and said firmly: "Let's go back together, we must kill this traitor." ”

The night was deep, the stars in the sky were blinking, and the moonlight was rippling on the waves. The two leaned against the reef and fell asleep.

At sunrise the next day, the two of them ate some grilled fish. A log was dragged from the shore and dragged into the sea, and the two walked into the cold water, lay on the log, and swam eastward.

There was an island in the sky, and the two of them struggled to swim towards it. It took nearly an hour for the two of them to swim to the edge of the island. Lying on the beach, the two of them were swimming in the sea for the first time, and they were exhausted, so they lay on the beach and rested for a while.

I caught a few fish off the coast and grilled them on the island. After eating the fish, the two walked around the island, which is a small island with no people on it.

Looking west, there is only one trace line on the mainland, undulating on the waves.

In the afternoon, the two swam eastward. This time, the two had experience in swimming in the sea, swam for more than two hours, and came to a small island.

Standing on the island, looking west, there is no land in sight. I saw seabirds flying, screaming and chirping, and people were in the middle of the vast world, and there was only the sound of the waves in their ears.

The next day. The two are standing on the east coast, the sea and the sky are connected to the east, where are the islands?

Qiu Lin said: "Let's follow the current and swim all the way to the southeast, whether we can see the island or not depends on luck." Yang Shaoxia, it's me who has caused you a burden. ”

Yang Shucheng said: "Where to speak, although I am a scholar and in a remote village, I also have a heart to serve the country, and I am willing to tide over the difficulties with General Qiu." ”

"Okay."

The two dragged the wood into the sea, held the wood with both hands, and went down the river.

The vast sea is boundless, and the two of them swim towards the southeast with all their strength along the current.

The sun was already overhead, and it was noon. Suddenly, I saw the sea boiling in front of me, and then I saw a large school of sea fish rushing to be the first.

The two of them didn't know what was going on, but they just lay on the wood and watched strangely, only to see this large school of fish rushing past them. The sea in front of you was smeared with white spray, surging towards this side like a hill.

Is the tide rising? The two of them didn't know how to be afraid, and with the ebb and flow of the tide.

Suddenly, I saw a huge fish head emerging from the sea, the fish head opened its huge mouth, the upper lip was connected to the sky, and the lower lip swallowed the seawater, and those small fish and shrimp were involuntarily sucked into their mouths.

It turned out to be a giant whale.

The two of them felt frightened at this time, and hurriedly turned around, hugged the wood, and swam back with all their might.

But where was the time, the giant mouth quickly came behind him, sucked it as hard as he could, and sucked the two of them with the wood into the giant mouth.

The two were sucked into the giant mouth, which was a dying struggle, and the two were clutching the wood to death.

The wood was sucked into the giant mouth with the two of them, and due to the rush of the waves, the log actually stood up and stuck in the fish's mouth.

The whale sucked as hard as it could, and the wood stuck tighter. The whale was so uncomfortable that it couldn't suck it in, it felt nauseous in its throat, and its stomach turned over and over, and when it vomited, it vomited out the food in its stomach.

The log was swept out by the rapids.

The two of them still held on to the wood and floated on the sea.

The whale suffered a loss, looked at the food on the sea, did not dare to eat any more, and swam away wagging its tail.

The two of them can be regarded as picking up two lives.

The two of them were sore and soft, lying on the waves, and they were glad for a long time.

I don't know how many dangers there are at sea, but the two of them are determined that they will not swim back.

The two continued to swim along the current, heading southeast.

But their luck was not good, and they swam until dark, and they did not see an island.

When it was dark, the two of them were hungry and tired, lying on the wood, unable to swim any longer, and let the waves carry them away into the distance.

By the middle of the night, the two were in despair. Under the stars and moon, they only saw a swarthy patch in front of them, and the two knew that it was not a whale, it was a life-saving island.

The two of them came to their senses and tried to swim towards the island.

Soon the two came to the beach, lying on the beach, letting the sea water lap on them, and their bodies didn't bother to move.

The two of them lay down for a while, then they got up, walked to the reef, and lay down, not even having the strength to catch the fish. Lay down on the beach and fell asleep.

It wasn't until three poles in the morning that the two woke up, and then they came over and went to the shallow sea to catch fish. Come back and grill fish to eat and replenish your strength.

The two rested on the island, and it was not until the next day that the two made up their minds that they must swim to the south and die on the land of the Ming Dynasty.

The two men had made up their minds, dragged over the logs, and headed east.

This time, above the sea, the two were not swimming, and the current led them south.

Until the sun shone in the sky, neither of them could see an island, not even a single seabird.

It was not until the afternoon that I saw the shadow of a ship coming from the sea to the east.

Yang Shucheng said: "You see there is a boat over there. ”

"Yes. I saw it. ”

"I don't know if it's from the Jin Kingdom or the Daming Kingdom?"

Qiu Lin said: "According to the speed of our swimming, we have reached the realm of Daming." ”

"This is my Ming warship."

"No, we've come to the open sea, and I analyze that this is a ship that moves around privately."

"And the private boat?"

Qiu Lin has studied the situation outside the border in detail since he abandoned literature and martial arts, and he analyzed: "My Ming Dynasty has been at war with the Jin State for many years, and the trade has been closed for a long time, and there are ginseng and mink skins in the southern store, aren't they all smuggled from outside the border?" Therefore, I conclude that this is a chess and private ship. We swam over. Follow them to Daming. ”

The two of them were not in a hurry, and slowly approached the boat along the current.

The ship was getting closer. Even the sailors on the ship could see it clearly.

The sailors of the ship also saw two men floating in the water, and there they were pointing fingers. The people on the boat all rushed to the side of the boat, and Yang Shucheng and the two swam towards the boat and soon came to the side of the boat.
