Wei Xiaoyue and Wei Xiaofeng sighed, they didn't expect to meet the Fire Charm Star, one of the Seven Stars of Tianshu, and couldn't help but think of the scene when their father was in power, "If my father is here, the Seven Stars of Tianshu will not fall!"

Wei Xiaoyue pondered for a while and said, "I didn't expect the Fire Phantom Star to die at the hands of Qingxiguan, what is the connection between him and the group of Yin soldiers in Suokou Village?

"We just came to Gongdui, and we don't know a lot of things, but I think it has something to do with what happened on Mount Kongo. Lan Jiuming carried the sword, played with it for a while, and continued: "These two weapons can cut gold and jade, and they are extremely sharp, let's keep them, they will be useful on the road in the future." ”

The three of them chatted along the way, and before they knew it, it was getting dark. Lan Jiuming looked around, it was deserted, there was no one nearby, and it was impossible to stay there. So they quickened their pace, hoping to find a place to rest before it was completely dark.

They didn't go far, the road under their feet became a little soft, and the three of them looked down and saw that it was all sand and gravel, "Could it be that we got to the river?" Wei Xiaofeng said to himself.

Lan Jiuming looked up and said with a smile, "I really let you say it!"

"Where is the river?" Wei Xiaofeng also looked forward with Lan Jiuming's efforts, but found nothing.

Lan Jiuming pointed to Wei Xiaofeng, "Look over there, what is swaying in the wind should be a reed, the reeds grow in the water, look at this black oppressive piece, there must be a big river near here." ”

Wei Xiaoyue said, "Let's go and see." ”

They walked quickly to the river, and found that it did not look like a river, but more like a large pool of water, where the bright moonlight was reflected in the water, illuminating the surface of the water brightly, and the dense reeds stood in the water in a disorderly manner, and the black pressure stretched for dozens of miles.

"We can't get through the front, we have to find another way!"

"This body of water would take dozens of miles, to say the least, and it would be too time-consuming to find another way around it. Wei Xiaoyue shook her head and rejected Wei Xiaofeng's suggestion.

"Our vision will be limited at night, and this water may not be more than dozens of miles. ”

"Brother Ming, what should we do next? We can't go back the way we came. ”

"Relying on the mountains and eating the water, this water area is very large, there will definitely be a living on the water, we will look along the shore, if there is a ferry, we can take a boat to cross it. ”

Wei Xiaoyue said: "Yes, it would be great if you could meet local fishermen!"

Wei Xiaofeng tiptoed slightly, flew up to a willow tree next to him, he stood on a high place, looked around, and finally found a little light in the distance, presumably there should be a ferry, Wei Xiaofeng fell from the tree, and pointed into the distance: "There is light over there, let's hurry over." ”

Lan Jiuming nodded, and reminded him: "There are a lot of livelihoods on the water, we must be careful, if the fishermen are fine, if you encounter water thieves, you must be very careful!"

The three of them did not perform light skills, but walked forward slowly, and walked for a long time before they reached the light that Wei Xiaofeng saw. This is really a ferry, it seems that it has been some years, the old wooden stakes have cracked, as if there is a possibility of collapse at any time, there is a fishing boat on the water not far from the ferry, there is a fishing lantern hanging on the bow, flickering and flickering, gently swaying with the wind. A middle-aged man on the bow of the boat was sitting there fishing, and when he saw Lan Jiuming and the three approaching, he didn't plan to lean over, still staring at the water by himself.

Wei Xiaofeng was in a hurry, he took a step forward and said loudly: "Boatman, please come here!"

The man raised his head slowly, waved his hand, and ignored Wei Xiaofeng.

"Why didn't this person come?"

Wei Xiaoyue said: "Looking at his appearance, he should be a fisherman, and he didn't dare to dock for safety reasons." ”

After speaking, Wei Xiaoyue stepped forward and said, "Boatman, we want to ask for directions, can we pull the boat over and talk further?"

The man was still silent, staring at Wei Xiaoyue for a while, then turned his head and waved his hand impatiently.

"This person is so ignorant of lifting!" Wei Xiaofeng secretly lucked, and rushed out with an arrow step, like a dragonfly on the water, lightly touched the water, and landed on the boat. The man was startled by him, the fishing rod in his hand fell into the water, he quickly held the oar tightly in his hand, pointed at Wei Xiaofeng and said loudly, "What are you going to do?"

"Why don't you answer?"

"Why should I answer, get off my boat quickly!" the man waved his oars and was about to hit Wei Xiaofeng.

Wei Xiaofeng snatched the oars, "You are quite tough, I don't embarrass you, you put the boat on the shore first." ”

The oars in the man's hand were snatched away in an instant, knowing that he was not an opponent, he had no confidence, and said angrily: "The oars are in your hands, how can you tell me to dock?"

Wei Xiaofeng smiled and returned the oar to him, and the man rowed the boat stupidly and slowly landed on the shore.

Wei Xiaofeng said: "The boatman, I was rude just now, I can't compensate you!"

When the man saw him like this, he felt uncomfortable, and hurriedly replied: "Where are you talking, are you going to ask for directions?"

Lan Jiuming said, "Yes, big brother of the boat family, what kind of place is this?"

Seeing that the three of them had a refined temperament, not like wicked people, the man put aside a lot of worries in his heart and said: "This body of water is called Naguze, with a radius of six hundred miles, and the three of them must have deviated from the official road, otherwise they wouldn't be able to go here." ”

"We're going to the south, so we didn't take the official road. Lan Jiuming said, "It's just that I didn't expect to turn here." ”

"South?" the boatman looked Lan Jiuming up and down, and said, "There is a war going on in the south, what are you going to do there?"

As soon as Wei Xiaoyue heard that there was a war, she hurriedly asked, "Brother Boat, let me be clear, who is fighting?"

"How could you not know about such a big thing?" the man looked at them suspiciously.

"We have been studying art in the mountains since we were children, and we have rarely dabbled in the world, and now we have gone down the mountain after learning and are about to go home to find our relatives.

"So that's the case, seeing that you are not very old, you don't understand the strife in this world, the south has been fighting for several years, the Dongming King of the Eastern God Department took the throne of Luo Xing Palace a few years ago, and became the master of the East God Department, and the four seas have been surrendered, only the southern wind god, forest array, fire line, The four divisions of Shan'an were unwilling to serve, they united and fought with the shadow army of the king of Dongming for several years, although they were defeated, but they took advantage of the danger to retreat to one side, and the king of Dongming couldn't take it for a while, so it was a stalemate, the war continued to escalate, and now the entire south has become a war zone!"

Hearing this, Wei Xiaoyue's sister and brother couldn't control their inner emotions, and they were filled with joy and sorrow for a while. Sadly, when I heard Luo Xinggong, I remembered my father and mother, remembered the past, and had been displaced for so many years; I was glad that the four Fenglin Volcano Divisions under my father's command were still there, and they had been fighting with King Dongming, which greatly increased Wei Xiaoyue's confidence in recovering the country.

Lan Jiuming was also quite shocked, the military ability of the Dongming King was unmatched, especially good at commanding large-scale legion battles, and he was the god of war of the Eastern God Department. Although the Fourth Division of the Wind Forest Volcano is also a top-level army, there is still a big gap between it and the Shadow Legion of the Eastern Ming King, and it is really rare to be able to hold out for so long.

At this moment, Wei Xiaofeng couldn't wait to go to the south immediately, he said in a hurried tone, "Boat family, can you take us through Naguze?"

"Now?" the man quickly shook his head and said, "No, no!"

"I'll pay you more!"

"It's not about money, the hydrology of Naguze is a hundred miles big, and the hydrology is so complex that my small boat alone can't pass through it, and only the merchant ships on Luoxia Island can walk. ”

"Luoxia Island is also in this Naguze?" Wei Xiaoyue asked.

"Yes, more than 50 miles away from here. ”

"Your ship should be fine when it comes to Luoxia Island!"

"This waterway is easy to walk, but it's okay during the day, but not at night!"

Wei Xiaofeng was anxious, and said loudly: "You boatman always talks halfway, why can't you do it at night?"

Lan Jiuming knew it in his heart, he stepped forward and arched his hand, and said: "Naguze is such a large body of water, and the waterways are crisscrossed and crisscrossed, it must be a place where people from the rivers and lakes gather, the boatman, the three of us don't understand the rules of the rivers and lakes, please give me more advice!"

Lan Jiuming said more implicitly, the so-called people in the rivers and lakes in this kind of place are nothing more than some gangsters.

"This brother is much more stable than you!" The man looked at Lan Jiuming, glanced at Wei Xiaofeng, and said: "That's right, Naguze has rules, you can take merchant ships during the day, and all kinds of materials can go to Luoxia Island for transit, which is relatively peaceful;

"What is the plate knife noodles?" Wei Xiaofeng asked.

The man couldn't cry or laugh, "Sure enough, he is a fledgling, he doesn't understand anything, and he throws it into the water to feed the fish after killing it!"

Lan Jiuming said to the two of them: "It's really not safe to travel at night, it's better to wait until dawn and we will make plans!"

Wei Xiaoyue and Wei Xiaofeng were anxious, "This Naguze is more than 600 miles, we can't get around it at all, and it will take nearly half a day to get to Luoxia Island, Brother Ming, there is a war going on in the south, I am really uneasy, this boatman must be familiar with the rules here, it is better to give him more money, I think he must have a way to take us over!"

Lan Jiuming looked at Wei Xiaoyue quietly, feeling a little difficult in his heart, according to his experience, it must be extremely risky to rush across the water tonight. Wei Xiaofeng saw Lan Jiuming hesitating and said, "With our cultivation, even if we meet a strong man, are we afraid that he will not succeed?"

Seeing their resolute attitude, Lan Jiu Ming turned his head to the man and said, "Now take us to Luoxia Island, this is for you!" A bright light flashed, and a heavy ingot of gold fell steadily into the hands of the boatman.

"This ...... It's really not possible at night, it's very risky!" said the man, his eyes kept looking at the gold in his hand, and he was reluctant to leave.

"I know you have a way, when you get to Luoxia Island, there is still a reward!" Lan Jiuming looked at the man and didn't speak, and continued: "We are worried about our family in the south, and we can't wait to fly back with wings now, boatman, please take us to Luoxia Island!"

The man frowned, as if he had made up his mind, "Okay! I'll do a good deed today, so get on board!"

Wei Xiaoyue and Wei Xiaofeng looked happy, and hurriedly got on the boat, Lan Jiuming looked around, and then also boarded the fishing boat. The man stretched out his oars and pushed lightly against the dock, and the fishing boat staggered off the shore and drifted into the depths of the water.
