Chapter 34 The journey is blocked
The east was white, and Lan Jiuming and the three of them flew over the reeds, and finally rushed to Luoxia Island before the sun rose! They carefully observed the surrounding situation, picked a place where no one was there and landed, adjusted their breathing after landing on the island, and walked forward.
Luoxia Island is very large, there is a large-scale town on the island, surrounded by high walls and deep ditches, Lan Jiuming and they followed the crowd who gathered early into the city, as Zhu Jiu said before, the island inn shops have all the ticket numbers, it is only early in the morning, and the city is already full of people.
"Let's go get something to eat. Wei Xiaofeng smelled the aroma of steamed buns on the roadside, and suddenly felt very hungry.
After tossing all night, Lan Jiuming and Wei Xiaoyue were also hungry, and they followed Wei Xiaofeng and sat on the table on the side of the road. "Dude, come to three drawers of steamed buns!" Wei Xiaofeng greeted the store loudly, and after a while, three drawers of steaming steamed buns were served, and three bowls of millet porridge were served, the store was a middle-aged couple, very enthusiastic, "Three guest officers, eat steamed buns in our store, the porridge is free to drink, it's enough!"
The three of them thanked the shop and began to eat. The thin and juicy buns, paired with hot millet porridge, made them extremely relaxed, and the physical and mental exhaustion of the night was greatly relieved. After breakfast, Wei Xiaoyue took the opportunity to pay and asked the boss: "Shop, where is the merchant dock?"
"This street goes straight to the end, turn left!"
"Shopkeeper, do you know where the Xuanaxe Gate is?"
The middle-aged man looked at Lan Jiuming and said, "You also want to apprentice, right?"
Lan Jiuming smiled, it was a tacit acquiescence.
"This one is easy to find, look there!" the shopkeeper pointed into the distance, "the highest mansion is!"
"Thanks!"
The three of them were about to leave, when suddenly there was a commotion on the street, followed by several fast horses speeding by, and immediately sat several men, all dressed as samurai, regardless of whether there were people on the road or not, rushing all the way. There was a small earth dog may have been frightened by the sound of horses' hooves, shrunk into a ball in the middle of the road, a little boy regardless of the danger, stepped forward to hug the puppy, and wanted to get it away, but the horse had already arrived, seeing that the little boy was about to die under the horse's hooves, Lan Jiuming rushed over with an arrow step, blocking the horse, the horse didn't know what the stimulus was, fell to the side, the person on the horse didn't have time to turn over, and fell off the horse's back!
Lan Jiuming stepped forward to hold on, and secretly unloaded the force of the fall, when he reached out and touched the person, he felt different, "It's actually a woman?" Lan Jiuming let go of the hand that was on her outstretched hand, and the person sat on the ground with a swaying ass. He turned and pulled the little boy up, dusted him off, and said, "Go home quickly!"
The little boy hugged the dog, looked at Lan Jiuming gratefully, and then ran away. Lan Jiuming was just about to leave, when he suddenly felt something coming from behind, he turned around and grabbed it, it turned out to be a horse whip! A strong internal force was transmitted through the horse whip, and the other end of the horse whip was the person who had just fallen.
Several other warriors on the horses also turned over and dismounted, and asked nervously, "Young master, are you okay?"
The man waved his hand and said, "I'm fine!" He looked at Lan Jiuming angrily, "You are so bold, dare to stand in my way!"
Lan Jiuming let go of the horsewhip in his hand, looked at him silently, and didn't speak. The man was even more angry: "Are you dumb?" stretched out his hand to hit, but was stopped by one of his companions, "Young master, it is important to return to life, the master of the door is still waiting!"
The man's anger did not subside, "You are lucky today!" He glared at Lan Jiuming, and several people turned over and left quickly.
"What kind of person is this, so arrogant?" Wei Xiaofeng asked the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper said, "They are the people of Xuanaxe Gate!"
"Xuan Axe Gate......" Lan Jiuming muttered softly.
Inside the Xuan Axe Gate, dozens of disciples who entered the room were practicing, while the door master Yuan Xin was pacing back and forth in the courtyard, his brows furrowed. At this moment, the next person came to report: "The young master is back!" Yuan Xin immediately came to his senses, and he asked, "Where is he now?"
"It's already in the study!"
Yuan Xin hurriedly came to the study, saw the young master and asked, "How is it?"
"Oh, Dad, I've worked hard all the way, you don't care about it, it's someone else's business!"
Yuan Xin smiled helplessly, "You, you've been like this since you were a child, it's good, it's your father's mistake, girl, you go this time, they didn't embarrass you, right?"
"That's pretty much it!" she smiled and said, "It's going well, Lord Yemen has agreed to help us!"
"Great, with Huang Yuemen's help, I will definitely be able to get rid of Wang Hai, the old horseman!" Yuan Xin seemed to be reassured, he stretched his brows, and said, "Have you seen Ye Ke this time?"
"See, that kid is very interesting, much quieter than when he was a child, he was a little shy when he saw me, and he gave me a fan when he left!"
Yuan Xin nodded, "You always bullied him when you were young, and when you get married in the future, you must take away your temper!"
"I don't want to get married so early, I want to spend more time with you and my mother!"
Yuan Xin sighed, and was about to speak, when a doorman hurriedly ran in, "Door master, everyone is back!"
"Where is it now?"
"It's all in the shipyard!"
"What about the casualties?"
"Dozens of people were broken, ten ships were destroyed, and Wang Hai didn't get a bargain, so we burned more than ten of his ships. ”
"Well, let's go down!" Yuan Xin turned his head to look at his daughter and asked, "Lan'er, when will the Yemen Master's people arrive?"
"They were about to leave when I left, and they were estimated to be there in two or three days!"
"Okay, I'm going to the shipyard, you go to change your clothes and accompany your mother, she talks about you every day!"
After Yuan Xin's instructions, he took the door man to ride on the horse and went out of the house!
Lan Jiuming and the three of them had already arrived at the dock at this moment, but they saw that there were many damaged boats parked in the harbor, and there were constantly injured people being carried down from the boats, and they knew in their hearts that this should be the person who was injured in the battle on the water last night. On the left side of the wharf, surrounded by a large group of people, Lan Jiuming and they squeezed over, it turned out to be a notice, which read: Recently, there have been water ghosts in Naguze, hurting people's lives, so small fishing boats are not allowed to enter and leave Luoxia Island;
"Why are you making trouble with the water bandits again?"
"I heard that Master Yuan and the old captain had a falling out, and they are fighting, who dares to go out!"
"Now that there is no war, the boat does not dare to fish, how many people have been injured by this water ghost!"
The onlookers muttered, were chased away by the guards, and dispersed in a hurry. This made Wei Xiaoyue and Wei Xiaofeng anxious, "Why is it so unfortunate that it was sealed at this time?"
"Rushing overnight, encountering such a result, it's really early in the morning, catch up with a late meeting!" Wei Xiaofeng was angry, and he didn't know how to vent the depression in his chest.
Lan Jiuming was very calm, he said: "Don't panic first, this notice says that the ship with military supplies can pass, and it is the same for us to take this and go." ”
"That's right, with our skills, it's easy to sneak in!" Wei Xiaofeng slapped his thigh, "I'm all confused, so it's solved!"
"However, it won't take seven days for this kind of ship to come back!"
Wei Xiaoyue asked, "Brother Ming, how do you know?"
Lan Jiuming said: "Passing by the duty room just now, my eyes swept to the shift record, seven days later, a batch of military supplies will come here to turn, and we will go back to the city to live in peace for a few days!"
There was no other way, the three of them had to go back, Wei Xiaofeng felt bored, he recalled what happened last night, and asked: "Brother Ming, do you think which of them won the Xuanaxe Gate or the old captain!"
"Well, at present, Xuanaxe Gate should be at a disadvantage!"
"Oh, why?" Wei Xiaoyue was also interested.
"The focus is on that notice, which says that the military supply ship can pass!"
"This sentence can be seen that Xuanaxe Gate is at a disadvantage?" Wei Xiaofeng couldn't figure out what the connection was.
"I remember Zhu Jiu said that Wang Hai was originally a water bandit entrenched here, and later submitted to the king of Dongming, but in order to contain him, the king of Dongming arranged for the Xuanaxe Gate to be here, and now the Xuanaxe Gate and Wang Hai fought, but although Wang Hai intercepted the merchant ships of the Xuanaxe Gate, he did not intercept the military supplies of the Dongming King, what does this mean? He did not turn his face with the Dongming King, Wang Hai is very smart, he is telling the Dongming King, I just have a personal grudge with the Xuanaxe Gate, and it will not affect the interests of the Dongming King. ”
Wei Xiaoyue understood, she said: "King Dongming himself has no intention of taking care of this side, in this way, he will not easily help Xuanaxe Gate, in his eyes, Wang Hai will no longer be as easy to be an enemy of him as before, at present, this is just a grievance between the rivers and lakes, if the Xuanaxe Gate is broken, it will be enough to arrange people;
"Yes, the current situation is that Wang Hai has not completely shot, he cares a little about the status of Xuanaxe Gate, but if he continues to fight, Xuanaxe Gate will definitely be defeated!"
When Wei Xiaofeng heard this, his mouth suddenly opened, "So that's the case, it's reasonable to say this!"
Wei Xiaoyue said to Wei Xiaofeng: "You have to learn more from Brother Ming in this regard, and the future master of the Eastern God Department must think more!"
"yes, I see!"
