4. Mission Cabinet
The next day, Zhao Kuangqing led everyone to set off, and in eight days, they traveled all over the island, and found more than 50 warriors and two shipwrights on the same boat.
According to Master Cao's suggestion, a camp was built on the beach, and fifty warriors and two shipwrights cut down the spirit wood and made a raft. Doctor Lu Quan took the guards Wu Dakui and his companion Canghe to collect herbs and configure healing drugs and poisons. The rest of the warriors followed Wu Xuan to the sea to fish, dry and make food.
In the dark middle of the night, boundless thick ink smeared the sky.
Suddenly, there was a sound of "swish" outside the camp, and more than 20 sea pythons five or six feet long crawled towards the fence with countless small sea snakes.
"Oh no!
"There are so many pythons and sea snakes, brothers, rise up and kill them!"
One of Zhao Kuangqing's warriors, who was on the night watch, saw clearly under the light of the bonfire and shouted in panic.
The night watchman shouted, and everyone in the camp took action.
"Let's go out and have a look!"
"Copy guy!"
"I'll take a wooden gun first!"
The warriors in the camp took wooden guns, and those who took swords, rushed to the fence to defend, but when they saw the scene outside, they were scared half to death, and there were more than 20 sea pythons five or six zhang long, followed by countless small sea snakes.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
............
As soon as the sea pythons arrived outside the Lingmu fence, they crashed wildly, and the huge impact force swept across the Lingmu fence, and the impact sound was accompanied by a violent tremor of the Lingmu fence.
Zhao Kuangqing held a sharp sword in his hand and stared at the group of pythons outside the Lingmu fence in panic.
"Little prince, these sea pythons are too powerful, we really can't stop them!"
The warriors were inside the spirit wood fence, panicked and slashed at the sea python outside the fence.
Their swords and wooden spears cut through the gaps between the fences, or chopped or stabbed on the dark blue scales of the sea pythons, leaving at most scars that could not cause them much damage.
It's just that the spirit wood fence is strong, and those sea pythons can't rush into the camp for the time being.
Standing beside him were Wu Xuan, the peak master of martial arts, as well as Steward Huang and Master Cao, two late-stage masters of martial arts.
"Report to the little prince! I used the 'Hades grass' on the island to make twenty copies of the strong poison 'Living Hades', one of which can make an adult tiger numb to the ground in half an hour, and if you don't take the antidote in time, you will soon be poisoned to death! Let the brothers wipe it on the tip of the sword and the tip of the knife, and pierce it into the body of the sea python, it should be able to numb it!" Lu Quan took out twenty small packets from his sleeve and said.
"Then you guys hurry up and wipe it on!" Zhao Kuangqing said to the other entourage warriors.
When the other attendant warriors heard this, they each picked up a small packet of poison from a tall and thin man, smeared it on the tip of the sword and sword, and then slashed at the sea python and the small sea snake outside the spiritual wood fence.
An hour later, more than a dozen sea pythons and some small sea snakes fell to the ground, and after a while, they lost their breath.
However, five or six more sea pythons crawled up, and the strong fence began to shake under the strong impact of the sea pythons.
"Lu Quan's poison has run out, and there is no more sharp weapon to harm the sea python. And in our group, only Wu Xuan can deal with a sea python alone, and even if the rest of us face a sea python together, there is no life or death. At most, the sturdy fence can keep the sea python from coming in for two hours. Master Cao, you are the smartest, think of a way!"
Zhao Kuangqing looked at the more than ten sea pythons outside the fence and said in a cold sweat.
"According to the old man, we can't hold out until dawn, wait for the sea python to disperse, stay in the camp and only be killed, and find a chance to break out is a good strategy. ”
Master Cao said with a gloomy face.
"If they are gone, who will build us a raft to go to sea?"
Zhao Kuangqing hesitated.
"Little prince, we can start over again if we escape, and we won't have a chance if we stay here!"
Butler Huang enlightened.
"Hmm!"
Although Zhao Kuangqing was reluctant, in order to save his life, he still agreed.
Wang Luo heard their conversation next to him, and immediately panicked, he was a person who had never practiced martial arts, if he wanted to survive in this beast tide, he had to rely on this group of warriors to guard this camp, otherwise when they left, he would be finished, and he was only nineteen years old, which was the best time in his life, so he didn't want to go like this.
Wang Luo thought for a while, came up with an idea to keep the camp, ran to Zhao Kuangqing and a few people and said: "Little prince, I have an idea to guard the camp, our camp has a lot of spiritual wood to make rafts, you can divide a little manpower in the fence with spiritual wood to build a small fence, the space is small, no matter how many sea pythons and small sea snakes are, they can't stretch out and attack together, blocking sea pythons and small sea snakes outside until dawn is not a problem!"
"That's a wonderful idea! The old man didn't expect it to make you think of it!
Master Cao praised with a smile, looking at this mediocre-looking young man for the first time.
Others also began to look at this commoner who was praised by Master Cao, but who had no appearance and no background.
"Okay! Lu Quan, you will command, and do what Wang Liu's little brother said!"
Zhao Kuangqing decided.
"Yes. ”
Lu Quan hurriedly went down and commanded the Captured Warriors Office.
"Haha! Brother Wang, you can follow this little prince in the future!"
Zhao Kuangqing threw an olive branch to Wang Luo.
He looked at the people who followed him, Steward Huang, Doctor Lu Quan, Wu Xuan, Master Cao, and the ten warrior guards who had followed him from Zhao State.
He glanced at the Huang Butler and the tall and thin Lu Quan, who had a somewhat rickety back, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, I am afraid that the only one who really died for him was this sixty-year-old housekeeper and Lu Quan, the doctor that his father specially cultivated for himself.
Wu Xuan has always been his most powerful helper, but he is free, and he only stays by his side to repay his former father's life-saving kindness, but he can leave at any time.
As for Master Cao, this guy who is good at intrigue and trickery, his loyalty is the lowest, if there is a better place to go, I am afraid that he will be the first to leave and seek another career.
Zhao Kuangqing is very helpless, his subordinates lack talents, only this Master Cao is good at giving advice, and without him, many things will not go well. God sent a young man who was praised by Master Cao, how could he not take him under his command and let him leave? Besides, if Canghe had to give advice to him instead of him, he would not have to worry about Master Cao's departure in the future.
"Thank you little prince! Being able to follow the little prince is a blessing for Wang Liu's eight lifetimes!"
Wang Luo was worried about where to eat in the future, when he saw that the little prince was recruiting himself, and someone sent him a pillow when he was really sleepy, so he hurriedly stepped forward to pat himself on the back.
"Good! good!"
Zhao Kuangqing was overjoyed when he saw Wang Luo behaving like this.
An hour and a half later.
"Boom!"
The original fence of the camp collapsed, and the warriors retreated to the newly built fence to defend it, keeping the sea pythons and small sea snakes out.
After a few hours, the sun rose after the night, and when the first rays of sunlight shone on the sea, the sea pythons and small sea snakes all dispersed.
"Haha!
"Yes!
"Haha! We survived!"
............
There was a loud cheer in Zhao Kuangqing's camp, and it took a long time to calm down.
At this time, a large sea ship with white sails with the word "Zhao" sailed quickly towards this isolated island and anchored on the beach not too far from Zhao Kuangqing's camp.
The owner of this big ship is called Zhao Junyi, the son of the former old monarch of Zhao State, when he was nine years old, he followed a loose cultivator to the East China Sea to cultivate immortals.
Speaking of his bad luck, he was intercepted by a group of powerful evil cultivators driving a sea boat during the voyage in the sea, and after struggling to get rid of it, he found that the fresh water and food in the ship had bottomed out, and when he saw that there was a lonely island here, he stopped and went ashore to replenish fresh water and food.
"My lord, I will lead half of the brothers ashore in search of fresh water and food to bring back!"
A dark and thin middle-aged martial artist said. "Hmm!
A graceful and elegant middle-aged man in brocade said.
"Yes! Wu Mo obeyed!"
The black and thin middle-aged warrior immediately led a group of people to go ashore.
............ ............ ............
Zhao Kuangqing watched in the camp as the warriors were cleaning up the remains of the little sea snake, and one of his warriors patrolling the surrounding area of the camp ran in as fast as the wind.
"Little prince, I found a big ship moored in front of the beach not far away. ”
Patrol warriors report.
"What, there's a boat parked in front of the beach not far away, take me there!"
Zhao Kuangqing suddenly felt joy descending from the sky.
"Yes!"
Patrol warriors run ahead to lead the way.
Zhao Kuangqing, Steward Huang, Master Cao and others followed closely, and after a while, they saw a large sea boat with the word "Zhao" written on its sail parked in front of the beach.
"Who are you? ”
The captain of the warrior with a strong bow on the bow deck said loudly.
"We are the ones who went out to sea and encountered a storm, and the ship was broken, and then we were stranded here. ”
Zhao Kuangqing continued: "We want to leave on your sea boat. ”
"I can't be the master of your requests, so I'll go and ask your lord to answer to you. Please wait a moment!"
The captain of the warrior hurriedly walked into the ship.
Not long after, the captain of the martial arts came to Zhao Junyi.
"My lord, there is a group of people who have been stranded on the island with difficulty outside the ship, and they want to leave on our ship. I said that if I can't be the master, only you, the shipowner, can give them an answer. ”
The captain of the warrior reported truthfully.
"Hmm!
Zhao Junyi walked indifferently to the bow of the boat.
"Captain, please take us away!"
As soon as Zhao Kuangqing saw the graceful and elegant Zhao Junyi, he pleaded.
"What are you doing at sea?"
Zhao Junyi asked Zhao Kuangqing and his gang about humanity.
"We went to sea to find immortals and encountered a storm, so we ended up on this desert island. My name is Zhao Kuangqing, and I am the son of King Gui of Zhao Guo, and they are my retinue. ”
Zhao Kuangqing said frankly.
"How do I prove your identity?"
Zhao Junyi asked solemnly.
"This is the jade pendant that the royal family gave me when I was born. ”
Zhao Kuangqing took off the jade pendant hanging around his neck.
"Haha! Xiaoqing, I'm your uncle Zhao Junyi! When your father sees me, he still wants to call the fifteenth brother!"
Zhao Junyi immediately laughed when he saw Yu Pei confirm Zhao Kuangqing's identity.
"What? You are my fifteenth uncle, Zhao Junyi! Didn't he follow the immortals to cultivate immortals when he was nine years old?"
Zhao Kuangqing said inexplicably.
"Meet the Fifteenth Prince!"
Master Cao immediately made a big bow respectfully.
"Meet the Fifteenth Prince!"
The rest of the entourage woke up.
"The little nephew has seen fifteen uncles. ”
Zhao Kuangqing also reacted in time.
"Xiaoqing, come on the boat! Uncle will tell you more!"
Zhao Junyi beckoned to Zhao Kuangqing, and motioned to the warriors on the ship to lower their strong bows and let them come up.
After Zhao Kuangqing talked to Zhao Junyi on the boat, he knew that his elder was a lowest-level immortal cultivator, that is, an immortal in the mouth of mortals.
In order to escape from their pursuit, he escaped at sea for several months, and ran out of fresh water and food before he went to this isolated island to replenish.
"Fifteen uncles, I have some food in my camp, and I will go back and send someone to bring the sea boat. ”
Zhao Kuangqing got off the boat and said.
"Yes, Uncle Fifteen is waiting for you to move in. ”
Zhao Junyi smiled and said.
After a while, Zhao Kuangqing returned to the camp and summoned the warriors to carry food and freshwater to the sea boats.
