On the unprovoked official road of the Central Plains, Lian Ling is still dressed in green clothes, riding a horse.

Since Jing Lan's assassination, Qin Lian claimed to the public that it was the assassin sent by Taishan to do it, and disclosed his secret identity as the deputy sect leader, and took over the position of sect leader "justifiably" on the grounds that the young master was missing.

However, due to the black cavalry of the Central Plains and the burial of Mount Tai, all the departments in the Central Plains had the intention of standing on their own feet; Qin Lian only had the troops of Xuzhou in his hands, which was difficult to pacify; local wars broke out again, and many people in the Central Plains moved their families to Lingnan.

The remnants of the Black Cavalry followed Li Shin to Dongyingzhou, and the defenders of Dongying rushed to the border of Goryeo, for which Li Xin occupied Dongying Jeonju without a single soldier. When the defenders of Dongying heard the news, they evacuated the border and rushed back to Dongying, but they were completely annihilated by Li Xin's design on the outskirts of the city.

With the awakening of the spirit array, there are signs of revival of the aura between heaven and earth, coupled with the birth of a strange beast in the tomb of the emperor, and the corpse of the last emperor came out.

On the official road that is lonely and uninhabited on weekdays, there is a constant flow of people at this moment, and the gates of Middle Earth and the Holy See of the Western Regions are coming one after another, and the carnage and the Haohao soup are heading to Mount Tai.

The ragged and haggard-looking people went south along the official road, dragging their families and families in groups.

They went to find a way to live, but they went to find a way to immortals.

Lian Ling, who was in the flow of people, looked at the wandering people, turned the horse's head, and slowly followed behind.

Far away in the East China Sea, a row of sails was exposed, and the ships were damaged, and the iron armor had fallen off, revealing the wooden planks inside.

Looking at the Phnom Penh Tianlong Flag fluttering in the sea breeze, Duguyun couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

The Tenryu fleet, which had been on an expedition to Fuso for several months, has returned...

She didn't know, but she felt that as long as she could come back, it would be best.

In a short time, the flotilla lowered its sails and approached the dock, and on the deck, the gunners, though many wounded, were still in high spirits.

On the deck of the main ship, Xue Yi, dressed in red, looked at Duguyun standing on the dock, although there was tiredness in his eyes, he could hardly hide the joy of the person he missed.

Dugu Yun smiled: "It seems that he has returned victoriously, but where is my father?"

Xue Yi jumped to the dock, looked at Duguyun with a smile, and then looked in the direction of Fusang, and said: "Fusang Kyoto has been captured by our army, but the situation is undecided, and the sect leader can't come back yet, so I am specially ordered to go back to the East China Sea first, rest the ship, and then pick you up and go to Fusang together." ”

Dugu Yun was stunned when he heard this: "Take me to Fusang, won't my father go back to the East China Sea?"

Xue Yi nodded, and said in a deep voice: "The sect leader has an appointment with Taishan, and they will garrison the border of Goryeo to help us fight for Fusang, but we will also withdraw from the East China Sea and no longer set foot in Middle-earth." ”

Dugu Yun seemed to remember that when he went to Mount Tai to send the spirit rune to Jue Ye, there was also a secret letter, which he had not opened and read, maybe this agreement was what the letter said.

The next day, the returning Tianlong ships sailed to Hangzhou Bay for repairs, and the news of the Tianlong Sect's capture of Fusang also spread.

It's just that the Central Plains is in civil strife, and Taishan is poised to march into the Central Plains, and he has no time to take care of the affairs of the Taiwan Sea.

Duguyun followed Xue Yi to Hangzhou Mansion, leaving the forest alone to guard Dongshan Island;

Looking at the prosperous city in front of him, Xue Yi sighed: "Middle Earth, after all, is still more prosperous than Fusang, but it's a pity..."

Dugu Yun's heart trembled when he heard this, although he said that he went to Fusang and could see his father and his mother who had run away from home since he was a child, but there was an unspeakable heaviness in his heart.

Xue Yi saw that Duguyun was depressed and didn't say a word, so he smiled and said: "Although Fusang is not as good as Middle Earth, it is also a treasure island land, and when you go, you will definitely like it there." ”

There happened to be a sand tea noodle shop on the side of the street, and Dugu Yun thought that if he went to Fusang, he wouldn't be able to eat his favorite noodle dish, so he invited Xue Yi to walk towards the noodle shop together.

After the two of them sat down in the noodle shop, there were many scattered people in the hall talking, and they could only hear the scattered people talking:

"The Central Plains Black Cavalry defeated Dongyingzhou, who knew that there were no defenders in Dongyingzhou, Li Xin was only a few thousand remnants, and he took Dongying without much effort, strange?"

"Harm, what's so strange about this, it's just a coincidence, I heard that the defenders of Dongying have all gone to the border of Goryeo..."

"Huo, this really made the remnants of the Central Plains drill a big loophole..."

Xue Yi held the teacup and listened to it on the side, and couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart, this empty space, I have to thank the Tianlong Sect...

Suddenly, the bystander continued:

"But no, when the defenders of Dongying learned that the state city was stolen, they hurriedly evacuated the border of Goryeo and rushed back to Dongying. ”

“Duang！”

When Xue Yi heard this, he was shocked, and the teacup in his hand fell on the tea table, causing everyone to turn their heads.

Dugu Yun didn't know why Xue Yi was shocked, so he asked, "What's wrong, cousin?"

Xue Yi thought about it in his heart, looked at Dugu Yun who was questioning beside him, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, you eat here, I'll go and see the rest of the warship." ”

After that, without waiting for Duguyun to speak, Xue Yi turned around and left, and went to the dock along the canal.

Duguyun had no intention of playing in Hangzhou, and did not see Xue Yi return for a long time, so he returned to Dongshan Island alone soon after.

Along the way, all Duguyun thought about was the reluctance and hesitation to leave the East China Sea for a foreign land, and he didn't pay much attention to Xue Yi's frequent reactions.

Late that night, Xue Yi led the rested warship back to Dongshan Island, and then had a secret conversation with Lin Zhong by the pier.

"Vice-Sect Master, why did you come back late at night?"

Xue Yi pondered: "I listened to Hangzhou City today and learned that the Dongying garrison of Mount Tai had withdrawn to Dongying and was completely annihilated by Li Xin. ”

When Lin Zhong heard this, he didn't know the deep meaning, and wondered: "So what?"

Xue Yi looked at Dongyang and said slowly: "

Although the sect leader has conquered Fusang Kyoto, there are still many areas such as Goryeo that have not yet been pacified, and if it is not for Goryeo's immobility, it will inevitably be defeated; now the Dongying defenders have withdrawn from the border, lest the remnants of Fusang and the Goryeo troops come to Fusang in the West Sea, and at that time, the sect leader will be attacked on his back!"

When Lin Zhong heard this, he was shocked, and frowned: "This... It is indeed where the great disaster lies, and how does the deputy sect leader plan to deal with it. ”

Xue Yidao: "At this time, if I rush back to Fusang, I am afraid that Goryeo has already sent troops, and I will definitely arrive in Fusang first, and I will not be able to rescue..."

Lin Zhong nodded and said, "Indeed, Goryeo and Fusang are just across the sea..."

Xue Yi pondered for a moment, and had already made up his mind in his heart, and said: "I will set off overnight now and lead the people to raid the Goryeo Peninsula. ”

Lin Zhong looked at the twenty or so warships on the dock, frowned, and said: "With our current strength, it must not be enough to attack Goryeo, after the raid of the deputy sect leader, we must evacuate as soon as possible, otherwise there will be no return." ”

Xue Yi nodded and sighed: "It's a pity that we lost the North Sea before, otherwise there would be no current trouble with the North Sea Division as a counterbalance to Goryeo." ”

Lin Zhong seemed to think of something, and said, "Can the Holy Maiden know about this?"

Xue Yi shook his head, "I didn't tell her, let's hide this from her first." ”

After that, Xue Yi led the crowd to board the ship and arranged for Lin Zhong to continue to stay in Dongshan, while he went north with the incomplete repair fleet.
