Wang Shouqing saw that Xiao Yao's face softened slightly after hearing his assurance, although he immediately understood in his heart that the big celebrity beside the Mongolian prince must have had something else to do when he came this time, but at this time, he no longer dared to speculate about Xiao Yao's intentions, he just wanted to do a good job of Xiao Yao's instructions wholeheartedly, so that he could say a few good words for himself in front of his boss and even the emperor, then he was already satisfied.

Because of the existence of Ubuen, all the matters of peace were handed over to him to deal with, and Xiao Yao actually had no heavy burden on his shoulders. In the first three days, he and Kublai Khan pretended to follow Yeubuen and sat on both sides of the negotiating table with the officials of the Great Song Dynasty led by Jia Yidao, and discussed many matters one by one on border demarcation, trade exchanges, the garrison of large armies, and even the signing of a covenant between the two sides to jointly defend against foreign enemies. Xiao Yao watched from the side, and saw that Ubuen used both words and grace, both soft and hard, and under the condition that his own interests were not touched and there were no restrictions on the use of troops and military affairs, he even made the Great Song Dynasty agree to many conditions that were extremely favorable to Mongolia, and he couldn't help but secretly give a thumbs up, and he admired Ubuen's diplomatic skills in his heart. Three days later, because many seemingly very important matters have almost been discussed, all that remains is some details of the problem, and Wang Shouqing has told Xiao Yao in these three days, and his subordinates have learned from the mouth of a fisherman in a nearby village that there is indeed a small island full of camellias that he mentioned in the depths of Taihu Lake, and there is a long-abandoned mountain villa on it, and it is likely that this is the place that he has been looking for for the past few days. When Xiao Yao heard this news, he was overjoyed, and after informing Kublai Khan, he quietly left the mission alone under the pretext of going out to play. He is strong in martial arts, he comes and goes without a trace, and others just want to follow him, but it is beyond his power.

It was the weather in March, the apricot blossoms were sandwiched, the green willows were hanging down the lake, and the warm spring breeze was blowing on the body, which was really drunk. For the beautiful scenery of Taihu Lake, Xiao Yao has seen a lot with Wang Shouqing in the past few days, and at this time, all he is concerned about is the stunts "Dou Zhuan Xing Shift" and "Shen He Finger" that have been passed down from generation to generation by the Murong family, as well as a large number of other martial arts secrets in the world. Therefore, as soon as he left the mission and completely got out of Wang Shouqing's sight, he went straight to a village by the lake and found the fisherman mentioned by Wang Shouqing. The fisherman saw that Xiao Yao was extraordinary, luxuriously dressed, and knew that he was by no means an ordinary person, and in the past few days, there were always people from the government who came to ask him about the location of the "ghost island", so when he saw Xiao Yao take out a large ingot of gold and wanted to take him there himself, he was in awe in his heart, and he was also very happy.

On the lake, after a few turns, the fisherman took Xiao Yao into a big lake, looking at it, but seeing the vast smoke and waves, and the distant water reaching the sky, Xiao Yao was secretly frightened: "This big lake must be Taihu Lake." In modern society, there are all kinds of detection tools, and it naturally doesn't take much effort to find a small island in a lake with 6 inner lakes, but in ancient times, it was all about manpower to explore, and it was really like looking for a needle in a haystack. ”

In Xiao Yao's opinion, the water surface of the lake in front of him was exactly the same, where was the difference, and there were no signs or signals that could guide the direction at all, but the fisherman seemed to be familiar with the road, one to the left, the other to the right, and he seemed confident. After rowing for a while, he suddenly rowed into a small port on the left, Xiao Yaodeng's eyes lit up, but he saw that the water was full of lotus leaves, if it wasn't for the fisherman's clear road, he would never have known that there was a way between the lotus leaves. After paddling for a while, the fisherman turned again, only to see that the water surface was full of water chestnut leaves and red diamonds, in the clear waves, red diamond green leaves, bright and extraordinary. Before the pond was finished, the boat passed through a clump of reeds and white waters. At a glance, the lotus leaves, water chestnut leaves, reeds, and callus whites are all exactly the same, and the lotus leaves and water chestnut leaves float on the water surface, and a gust of wind comes at any time, which is really changeable. Xiao Yao thought about the reason why Shenhezhuang and Yanziwu were still few people knew about on the shore of Taihu Lake for more than a hundred years, and suddenly he couldn't help but feel suddenly in his heart.

After more than two hours of twists and turns, Xiao Yao looked across the water, and finally saw a corner of the eaves in the green willows in the distance. The fisherman said: "Official, we have arrived, and that is the 'Ghost Island'." ”

Xiao Yao smiled slightly, and did not mean that he mentioned the "ghost road", and said: "You are waiting for me outside, and you are not allowed to step into the island without my permission." Got it?"

The fisherman said, "The lord commands, how dare the villain disrespect." It's just that this island is haunted, and for more than 100 years, it has been said that this island is occupied by all kinds of evil spirits, and no one dares to come to find out, adults or ......"

Xiao Yao waved his hand and said, "I have my own way of dealing with it, you can wait here with peace of mind." As he spoke, the boat slowly approached the shore. When they got closer, they saw a wooden ladder made of pine branches, hanging down to the water. Xiao Yao didn't hesitate and stepped ashore, but suddenly there was a sparse and scattered ruins of four or five houses in front of him, piled up on an unknown island or a peninsula. Seeing this scene, Xiao Yao's heart was mixed for a while, happy that there was indeed nothing left out in the book, this ruin, most of them were the place where Murong's family was back then, but I don't know whether it was Yanziwu, Shenhezhuang, or listening to the perfume pavilion and the piano rhyme. Thinking of this, Xiao Yao walked in it, and after a while, he understood in his heart, the terrain here is not wide, although the house has long collapsed, but it can still be seen that the original house is small and exquisite, elegant and beautiful, Xiao Yao secretly thought in his heart, most of this is the Qinyun Xiaozhu or the site of the Perfume Pavilion where Azhu or Abi lived. As soon as I thought of this, a solemn meaning came spontaneously.

Xiao Yao stood for a moment, praying silently for the misfortune between Azhu and Qiao Feng back then, and secretly rejoicing that Abi finally got his wish and walked with Murong Fu. But time flies, and everything in the world turns to dust. Xiao Yao stood silent for a moment, then turned back to the shore and said to the fisherman, "Are there any other small islands nearby?"

The fisherman nodded and said, "Yes, there is, but it is already deep in Taihu Lake, crisscrossed by waterways, and there are islands there...... It is said that there are more evil spirits, and no one dares to go there on weekdays. As for the location of the island, the adults forgive me, and the small ones only know a general location, because they really haven't been there......"

Xiao Yao waved his hand and said, "You don't have to be afraid, let's go." ”

The fisherman wanted to say something more, but when he saw Xiao looking at the sky from afar, he obviously didn't want to say anything more, so he had to keep silent, force himself to suppress the panic and fear in his heart, and rocked away in the direction of his memory.
