On the vast sea of Yellow Springs, the blood-yellow waves are tirelessly surging. A faint stench of blood rose from the churning waters as the waves rolled.

Dozens of water-sheltering beasts that looked like unicorns, with a dragon's mouth and a pair of antlers on their heads, and covered with white fish scales, oxtails and tiger claws, rushed to the west on the sea surface, heading towards the east coast of Dongyizhou.

On each water-repellent beast as white as blood, he rode a portable light blue paper umbrella, and his skin and hair were also white as snow.

However, although these little ghosts are no different from human souls, they have some similarities with water ghosts, such as their hands and feet are also webbed as thin as cicada wings.

This ghost is called Hai Tong, and in the depths of the weak water of the underworld, it is born from the underwater water spirit absorbing the aura of the deep sea. They are born to eat live fish and shrimp for food, and drink seawater to quench their thirst, but if they do not drink seawater, they will die of thirst. And he can't grow up at all, and when he dies, he will only be the body and appearance of an eight-year-old child.

But from the day they were born, they were able to control the floating water repellency beasts that were also born in weak waters.

This kind of imp is not a human soul nor a demon soul, but a kind of spirit. From the day they were born, they were loyal to the Northern Yin Dynasty and to the Emperor of Xudu until their deaths.

In the Beiyin Dynasty of Emperor Xudu, in addition to the sea cavalry with danshi, there was also a sea cavalry, which was this sea boy sea cavalry.

Previously, the sea boys had been patrolling the sea around the west of Liutian Chau. At this time, he suddenly appeared on the sea of Huangquan, just to hunt down the princess of the bear country who escaped.

A long time ago, the female lu escaped from Xuanyuan City and headed west under the escort of the minister Chang Xian through the secret passage. Along the way, in order to avoid the round-up of the Xudu army, they did not dare to take the main road, and they wore pines and cypresses in the mountains and forests.

As a result, it took them a full three months to come to the west coast of Fenglin Continent.

When they boarded the unsinkable wooden boat that had been prepared and loaded with supplies with the help of the fishermen that Ji Xuanyuan had already arranged, and sailed westward for dozens of nautical miles, they were discovered by the patrol sea boy sea cavalry who had received the news of the female lu's escape.

In the midst of a fierce battle, among the enemy troops who surrounded and intercepted them, a sea boy sounded the signal fireworks.

Since then, the Sea Paedan Sea Cavalry has pursued and attacked the female warriors without stopping. In the vast ocean, the female marls can always meet the haunting sea boy. Sometimes there is a big battle in three days, and sometimes a small battle in five days, which is also a common thing.

From the weak water to the yellow spring sea, the sea children have been persevering. And fighting the sea children has naturally become a common thing for the female and her subordinates.

At this time, the Sea Paddle Sea Cavalry galloping on the sea was an enemy army that was desperately chasing after the women.

"Captain, look!" Facing the cloudy sun in the east, the water sheltering beast stepped on the waves with four claws, bringing up the water splash. The deputy who was at the hand of the kappa who was at the head suddenly pointed his finger in front and shouted, "Is it the boat of the female squire parked on the island in front of you?"

The aligner looked in the direction of his finger, and saw a mast in the distance in front of him, on the edge of a small isolated island with dense coconut groves and white sand on the sea.

There was no sail on the mast, only a weather vane hanging from the top of the pole, pointing west in the sea breeze.

The captain looked at it, and after confirming that the mast was an unsinkable wood and must have come from Fenglin Continent, which was surrounded by weak water, he decided that it must be a small boat of female slurs, and his face suddenly brightened, and he urged his subordinates with great interest: "Quick, go around!"

After another moment, the four-clawed water-repellent beast rushed to the side of the small boat that was quietly moored on the sea. These dozens of sea boy sea cavalry surrounded this small boat in an instant.

But in an instant, the excitement on the faces of all the sea children had subsided, and they were all suspicious and confused. In front of them, there was not a single ghost on the deck of the small ship, which was only one floor of the cabin and the hull was not too high. The surroundings were so quiet that only the sound of the waves and the sound of coconut groves swaying in the wind on the island not far away.

The captain of the sea boys, after looking at the ship for a long time, suddenly felt bad.

The sea is vast, and as far as the eye can see, there are endless waves of water, except for this boat and a palm-sized island not far away, only the muddy sea water under the claws of the water-sheltering beasts can be used for the women to hide.

But the women are not boat ghosts, they are not water ghosts, and it is impossible for them to hide in the depths of the sea.

But if there is no sign of them on the deck of the ship, there must be a deception.

Just as this thought arose, on the shore of the island next to the boat, there was a sudden "whooshing" sound behind the dense coconut grove.

More than a dozen simple long arrows made of shrub branches in the forest and sharpened one end shot through the air. In an instant, the ghost's blood splattered and screamed.

A dozen or so Sea Child cavalrymen facing the boat, but with their backs to the island, were impaled through their bodies by these improvised long arrows.

The kappa live in the sea for a long time and never wear armor. Even if those arrows were not iron-bladed, they could easily pierce their flesh.

Moreover, there are a few Nantian bamboos growing on the island, so the ghost who shoots long arrows even smeared the poisonous juice of Nantian bamboo on the arrowheads.

"There was an ambush. The captain of the kappa roared angrily, and the beast rushed to the shore of the island, and when he looked up at the island, he saw a black shadow shooting towards him in the shade of the trees.

The sea boys hurriedly raised the paper umbrella in their hands, and the umbrella body rotated like a fly, blocking the Daodao wooden arrows that were bullying them.

"On the island, come with me!" the sea children, enraged by being played, rushed to the shore of the island with the captain's roar. In an instant, they disappeared into the shadows of the trees, and disappeared.

Immediately afterwards, the screams rang out one after another in the dense forest on the island. The smell of blood also slowly diffused among the coconut groves with the sea breeze blowing across the island.

Judging from the immaturity of the screams, they were all made by the sea child.

After a few moments, the screams dissipated. I saw the bear army, carrying a lot of coconut fruits and branches of the island's plants and long arrows on his shoulders, walking slowly out of the coconut grove and coming towards the boat.

The leader is the female Lu and Chang Xian.

After fighting the sea children for a long time, the female squire has long known that it is easy for the sea children to be spotted by the sea children during the day, but in the vast sea, there is no hiding place, and the female squire has been racking her brains for this. When she saw this ghostless island, she immediately had a plan in mind, and immediately ordered the boat to dock.

First, let his men go ashore and pick some coconut fruits that have been stored and quenched their thirst as food for their stomachs. The second is to use the plants on the island to make some improvised weapons in case of emergency.

Of course, the female squire will not go ashore without any precautions. As early as when she reached the shore, she immediately asked her men to climb to the top of the tall coconut trees to stand guard, and at the same time, she also laid a deadly trap in the forest, taking advantage of the location and the few natural materials on the island.

That's why there was a way out, as soon as this team of kappa ghost soldiers came ashore, they screamed again and again.

"Princess, what should we do next?" After standing on the beach, Chang Xian looked at the dozen paper umbrellas and the corpses of more than a dozen water-sheltering beasts floating on the sea in front of him, and asked slowly.

The sailors had already carried coconut fruit and wooden arrows to the deck and placed them in the cabins.

"There is no princess anymore, so call me a maid in the future. The female girl with a faint confusion in her eyes also stared at the turbid waves rolling on the sea in front of her, and returned softly.

In her opinion, the country is broken, the family is dead, and it is meaningless to hold the empty title of this princess.

But Chang Xian was loyal, but he didn't dare to call the other party by name, and he was flustered for a while, and waved his hand again and again: "Don't dare, don't dare." ”。

"What is there to dare not be, the name is for him to call the ghost. After answering indifferently, he said, "Just hide on the island and wait until it gets dark, and then we will set off." ”。

After speaking, she turned her head slightly to look at the horizon to the west, and behind the horizon was the destination of her trip, Dongyizhou......

In Manjiang City, Xiao Shizhu has been inactive for more than ten days. In addition to patrolling the city and inspecting the posts every day, and observing the training of the sergeants, it is to eat, drink and have fun.

Today, after he came back from his tour of the city, he set up a tea tray in front of the palace hall and made tea leisurely.

The light of the cloudy sun was slowly sprinkled, the fragrance of tea was diffused, and Xiao Shizhu's face was full of comfort. He picked up the teacup and took a sip of fragrant tea, leaving a fragrant fragrance on his lips.

Xiao Shizhu then turned his head to look at the front of the main hall, and saw that Bei Shu and Shen Ji were striding towards him. After the two ghosts stood beside him, Xiao Shizhu asked with a smile: "Two, do you want a cup of tea?

When questioning, he gently shook his teacup a few times, and the orange and yellow bright tea soup in the cup swayed, and a strange orchid fragrance rose from it.

"No, I'm here to report on the military situation. Bei Shu didn't speak, and Shen Ji took the lead in saying: "Lord, the 100,000 army led by Gu Shooting Goddess and General Ji Yan has gone all the way north, and has now hit Fengming Valley and surrounded the Xudu army stationed at the mouth of the valley. ”。

"Expected. Xiao Shizhu, who was calm and relaxed, took another sip of fragrant tea, and said leisurely: "The country of Xiazhou has existed in name only, and all the cities north of Manjiang City are just strong outsiders and middle cadres. ”。

In addition, Zhu Hai and General Yuhua also led a large army to sweep through the northwest of Manjiang City, which means that the Xiazhou Kingdom no longer exists from now on. After a pause, Shen Ji said again.

The drooping roots of his face swayed from side to side in the slight wind.

"Got it, let them prepare to defend their territory, and they don't have to continue attacking north. Xiao Shizhu, who put down the teacup, looked away at Bei Jing, who was standing quietly on the side, after Shen Ji responded.

"What's wrong with General Beishui? I see a trace of doubt in your eyes?" Xiao Shizhu pointed to the futon opposite him and motioned for Beishu to sit down.

"Yes, what I wonder about is that tomorrow is the Midyear Festival, your lord, you have been preparing, and now that you have all the preparations, why don't you send troops yet?" Even if we send troops now, it will be impossible to rush to the big and small lonely cities tomorrow. ”。

When Xiao Shizhu saw him talking, his eyes were a little more puzzled and confused.

"Take a sip of tea. Xiao Shizhu smiled indifferently, and there was still a faint disapproving look on his face. After making a cup of tea for Bei Shu and handing it to the other party, Yoyo asked: "If we deploy troops with great fanfare, how can they be discovered by the Corpse Soul Army, then they will be on guard." But I have a way of getting the army over the big and small lonely cities overnight, so they won't find out, so it's not too late for us to set out tomorrow morning. ”。

"Method?

But before the words landed, the light of the cloudy sun sprinkled overhead disappeared in an instant, and in its place, a large dark shadow shrouded the city.
