Due to the wind and waves at sea, the ship deviated again, and it was almost noon when it arrived at its destination the next day.

The guests lining up to disembark on the boat had smiles on their faces. It is indeed a joy to not die in a great calamity, and many people cheer when they go ashore, breathe in the fresh air of the land, and are in a good mood.

After the ship docked, Haisheng, Heiye, Lao San, and all the sailors lined up in a row to see everyone off.

Qi Chu and the others were also in the disembarkation team, but he found that although Hai Sheng was smiling, there was a hint of gloom in his eyes, and it might be difficult to think about it. After a short conversation last night, Qi Chu knew that Hai Sheng was a good person, and Hei Ye and the third child were also good people.

When a good person is in trouble, he always wants to help.

He stepped forward and said hello, "If there's anything really difficult, you can tell me, maybe I can help." ”

Hai Sheng shook his head and said, "Don't bother with it, we can solve this little matter ourselves." ”

Qi Chu was rejected by him twice, knowing that he was arrogant, not only did he not get angry, but he admired Haisheng very much. After saying goodbye, Qi Chu and the three of them got off the boat, and he searched for Lord Yama and Jieshui in the crowd, but he didn't find the two of them.

Just as he was wondering, Xu Jinyu patted him, "Where do we live, what do we eat, and when are we going to slay the dragon?"

Lan Ting hurriedly said: "Childe must live in the No. 1 room of Tianzi that does not cost money, what to eat is naturally up to me, as for slaying the dragon, hehe." ”

"Hey what?"

Lan Ting smiled: "I must be full of food." ”

The wharf here is located on the east side of Danya Mountain, and the two places are half a day's distance away. Qi Chu just heard Kang Hui say that the Divine Court was at the top of Danya, but Danya Mountain was very large, and the specific location of the Divine Court was unknown. So I can't go up the mountain directly, it's noon now, Xu Jinyu is also hungry, so I still have to find a place to stay first.

Lan Ting looked ahead, and saw a small city not far away, with a lighthouse and a fort on the city wall, and the sea water flowed down the city and into the moat.

The people who got off the boat were walking towards the small town, "Childe, let's go and have a look, it seems that this is the only place where you can eat." ”

......

Seeing all the passengers go away, this flight is considered to be thrilling.

The happiest people were the sailors who had an extra twenty taels, and they were ready to go to the small town in front of them to relax.

Hei Ye stood next to Hai Sheng, his eyes gradually became solemn, "What should we do?"

"The boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, so let's go down to eat first. Haisheng looked at the small city, and the emotion in his eyes was uncertain.

The third child on the side sighed, "If it weren't for this wave, our money would be enough for this trip!" The words were full of dissatisfaction and disappointment.

"Forget the third brother, this may be the will of God. Hai Sheng looked up at the sky again, only to feel that the sun was dazzling, and it pierced the bottom of his heart, and the pain was unbearable.

"What the hell is providence, I think this god will bully us honest people!"

Hai Sheng gritted his teeth, "I won't be bullied by them all the time, it's a big deal!"

......

Qi Chu and the three of them walked to the city, and when they looked up, they saw that the city gate had four big characters written on it: "Penglai Water City". To build a city by the sea, in addition to the wind and sun on weekdays, you also have to endure the humidity of the day and night.

Green moss has grown on the "Penglai Water City", and the soldiers guarding the city gate are ten times more than Yangzhou City.

"Childe, don't look at this very small city, the inspection is very strict!" Lan Ting said

Qi Chu said: "This is what you don't know, although this Penglai Water City is not big, but it has been a military fortress since the Song Dynasty, and it was originally used to dock warships." The water castle was later built on this basis. ”

Xu Jinyu asked curiously, "How do you know so much about it?"

Qi Chu said with a smile: "Because the famous general Qi Jiguang is here to train the sailors and fight against the Japanese invaders." Naturally, I know a little bit about it. ”

Xu Jinyu asked, "So this is the base of the navy, so can we still go in?"

Qi Chu pointed to the passers-by who were entering the city: "In addition to being a military base, this is also an important treaty port, and the people who come here are generally merchants. Therefore, the city is a place for military merchants to live, not only can they enter, but also have a lot of delicious food. ”

When Xu Jinyu heard this, he immediately pulled Qi Chu forward, and the three of them passed through the city gate, and they were not blackmailed by the soldiers who checked them.

Lan Ting's impression of this place is a little better, walking in the city and finding that there is water everywhere, and there are large and small boats docked on the water, but there are no inns or restaurants on either side of the road.

"Childe, is there nothing else in this city except boats?"

Qi Chu said with a smile: "You're right, Penglai Water City leads sea water into the city, and the ships you see are inns and restaurants." ”

Lan Ting looked carefully and found that some of the ships did have plaques on them, such as the Lying Immortal Residence, the Leisure Bed, and so on.

Xu Jinyu said: "So you have to sleep on the boat at night, it's so boring!"

She thought that the ships on both sides were the same as the passenger ships that were called this time, with only cotton mattresses and no beds.

The three of them found a big boat, but there was no Tianzi No. 1 room here. Because housing is in short supply, even a modest kitchen can be crowded with people at night.

The three of them were also lucky, and there happened to be two rooms left on the big ship. Lan Ting paid, and the guy took the three of them to the guest room.

Xu Jinyu didn't have much hope here, but when he opened the door, he was surprised, and the luxury of the guest room could not be described in words.

"How can there be such a good guest room?" asked Xu Jinyu

Qi Chu said: "Actually, if you think about it carefully, it is difficult to find a room in the water city, and there are only two possibilities for a guest room that can be left until now, one is very broken, and the other is very luxurious." You also have to know that there are always more poor people than rich people in this world, so no matter how broken the room is, there will always be people living in it, but the luxurious one is not necessarily. ”

"See, it's not that we're lucky, it's that no one can afford to pay for the room, right?"

Qi Chu nodded, the two guest rooms were next to each other, and he was naturally in the same room as Lan Ting. Xu Jinyu occupied a room by himself, freshened up a little, and the three of them gathered downstairs.

Lan Ting asked the guy where to eat, and when he went out, the son must not be wronged.

Stay, want to live the best!

Eat, eat the best!

"Childe, I heard that there is a good Yuexi Pavilion, do you want to eat?"

Qi Chu asked Xu Jinyu's opinion, but he seemed to know that it seemed to be an extra move. Because when Lan Ting said this name, Xu Jinyu's face was bright.

It seems that the name is really important, and the attraction of the word moon and night to a woman is not ordinarily great.

"You lead the way, let's go. ”

"Okay!" Lan Ting ran ahead, having long forgotten the purpose of his visit.

Children are always more forgetful than adults, but who can be a child for the rest of their lives?
