After the rapids, the boat is more stable. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Chris expected the helmsman to hold the tiller steadily, and to sail through the waves with ease, and the sailors on board must have been experienced and well acquainted with the sea.

Sure enough, after half an hour, the sea became calm and cloudless.

Salmon Island is slowly getting bigger at sea level in the distance. A white mist shrouded in the room, suddenly rose a Qionglou Yuyu, white walls and red tiles, pieces of buildings, stretching for dozens of miles. To the right of the building was a huge white ship, sailing fast on the waves, and the hull of the ship was surrounded by white waves.

"Look!"

Ning Yifei suddenly shouted, and he pointed to the sky.

Chris and the others all looked intently.

Because, something amazing happened, a small building in the complex began to change shape.

"Brother Feng?" Xiong Daiying subconsciously whispered, he naturally had never seen this amazing scene, and he was faintly uneasy in his heart, and even forgot to call the master "Xiao Yi" The new title. Fortunately, there were no others around, and Hong Qili and Ning Yifei also looked at the fantastic scenery with fascination.

Chris didn't respond, and she was watching closely.

Even Hong Qili, who has the heart of Gujing Bubo, couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this.

Ning Yifei turned his head to look and found that many people had come to the deck, and they all looked at one place.

Suddenly, in the midst of an exclamation, the small building, as if it had grown wings, flew from west to east, overlapping with another octagonal pavilion. The people around him have already shouted: "Overseas Immortal Island!"

The people who mixed up on the water were very superstitious, and some crew members began to bow their heads and bow.

The commotion on the deck, naturally, also alarmed the people in the cabin, and more and more people came out. The five female Taoist aunts of the Taishan faction are naturally no exception.

Mai Xiu was the first to walk out of the cabin, and many people had already come over and hurriedly said: "Overseas immortal island has appeared, please Dao Gu hurry up and see if you can attract immortals." ”

As soon as they heard this, everyone's eyes were full of expectation, and they hurriedly echoed: "Yes, let's see if we can let the gods lead the way and take us to the fairy island to enjoy happiness!"

Another exclamation. The small building drifted quickly, and it tread the waves to the east, passing by the huge white ship. A seagull flew by, piercing through the Qiong Tower in the sky, and in less than a minute, the scene in front of him disappeared.

In the midst of the illusion, the ship is almost on Salmon Island.

The onlookers on the deck sighed again and again, and sighed that it was a pity to pass by the fairy island. Many people were so disappointed that they turned around and went back to the cabin to pack up and get off the boat to get off the island.

Several female Taoist priests stayed to watch the afterglow of "Fairy Island".

Chris saw that Ning Yifei and Xiong Daiying still had surprised expressions on their faces, so he laughed softly: "Don't tell me, you really think it's an immortal island, believe that there are immortals living on it, right?"

"Is there really anyone who doesn't believe that there are immortals in the world? Didn't you see it just now?" asked Chris, one of the Taoist aunts of the Taishan faction.

She is wearing a red dress and a blue dress, ranking ninth, and her name is Huang Jingjing.

Mai Xiu glanced at Chris, and said slowly: "Ninth Senior Sister, don't argue with him." ”

"I didn't, I was just surprised......" Huang Jingjing's voice became smaller and smaller, very aggrieved, she obviously didn't want to cause trouble.

Mai Xiu walked away a few steps, and the junior sisters had to follow when they saw it, and they staggered away from Chris.

Chris smiled lightly and said, "Regardless of whether there are immortals in the world or not, that one just now is indeed not an overseas immortal island. ”

Ning Yifei also felt that Brother Ouyang was erudite and talented, and at first he always thought he was talking nonsense, but he always proved that he was right, so he asked, "If it's not Xiandao, then what was it just now?"

"Mirage!" said Chris, "a mirage is nothing but a refraction of light. ”

"Refraction?" Ning repeated in confusion.

"When the temperature difference between the top and bottom of the sea becomes larger, light refraction occurs on the sea surface, and the scene of a place in the distance is reflected. ”

Looking at Ning Yifei's expression in a daze, Chris smiled again, she didn't expect anyone to understand what she said, let alone believe that her words could change these stubborn superstitions in ancient times, but she wanted to say it.

Hong Qili said: "The mirage of the tower, since ancient times, the "Historical Records" has recorded, in the summer Dengzhou sea, there are clouds from time to time, and several emperors in the past dynasties have sent people to the overseas Penglai Immortal Island to seek immortal medicine, but I don't believe it. He paused, "I have been to the Western Regions, and I have seen this illusory scenery in the great desert, and I can even hear the sound of chariots, horses, people, and animals, and I was shocked in my heart, and asked the local old man, who said that he had seen a similar scene on a certain day twenty years ago. I've always had doubts about this, but now that I've heard you say that, I'm suddenly struggling. ”

Chris nodded at Hong Qili, and said in his heart: I didn't expect Hong Qi to read a lot of books, no wonder he has seen extraordinary, well, he accepts new things quickly.

Thinking of this, Chris cast an approving look at Hong Qili.

Seeing Chris smiling at himself, Hong Qili said in his heart, he still looked cuter when he smiled.

"In other words, the scene we just saw is exactly the same in other places?" Xiong Daiying reacted and said an incisive conclusion.

Chris nodded.

A few of them were chatting here, and the sound actually reached the ears of several Dao Gu.

Gao Liang'er listened to the man's strange theory, and her heart was somewhat touched. She looked back and found that the two junior sisters were also watching them. Like themselves, their eyes were fixed on one of them.

The ninth senior sister found that Gao Liang'er was looking at herself, her face was shy, and she quickly withdrew her gaze. Only the little junior sister Zi Ling was still looking at it, her eyes were rolling, and she seemed to be crazy.

The big ship approached Salmon Island, and all I could hear was the horn of the island.

Sha Men Qi is a government office and is built in the hinterland of South Changshan Island, while the main island where prisoners are held is North Changshan Island, which is separated by a suspension bridge. If you want to pass, you must pass through the "Blackstone Fort", which is heavily guarded in front of the drawbridge. During the event, prisoners will be released from North Changshan Island and sent to the surrounding islands. In the center of the archipelago, there is a pagoda reef in a crack in the seabed like a broken sword, and Li Qing ordered a "black stone tower" to be built on the pagoda reef, and a closed arched passage was built on the floor above the tower in the sea. Nearby islands are connected by rope bridges, while distant islands are connected by ferry. The farthest big black mountain island, built a smoke-black fortress on it, Li Qing called it "Black Mountain Fort", the treasures of the island seizure conference are placed in it, and there are people on the island waiting day and night. People say that Salmon Island is difficult to enter, and "Black Mountain Fort" is indeed the most difficult place to enter and exit on Salmon Island.

The "Black Stone Tower" towers over the seabed, surrounded by four large islands: Long Island in the north and south, and the large and small Black Mountain Islands. Giant sea flags fluttered on the top of the Black Stone Tower, with the image of the Black Mountain Basilisk printed on it, showing a gloomy and inviolable aura along with the black prison buildings on the island.

In a port not far away, someone on the shore waved a flag to instruct the big ship to enter the port. On the pier stood the black-clad jailers of Salmon Island, lined up.

After the team got off the boat, Qin Yujiu and Wang Xu, came out of the cabin.

The two of them and the Dao aunts of Bixia Palace were invited by Li Qing to decorate the façade, so they naturally sent someone to receive them, and they didn't dare to slack off.

Qin Yujiu had the largest number of entourage, so he went to the island last.

Chris and the others, as Qin Yujiu's personal entourage, followed closely behind. Xiong Daiying and Hong Qili are personal guards, while Chris and Ning Yifei are personal attendants. At this time, Chris held a box of incense in his hand, pretended to be, and disembarked after him.

Chris saw a girl in red standing next to the gangplank, it was one of the Tarzan Daogu, who seemed to be waiting for someone.

A small smile brushed her lips at the sight of Chris.

Approaching, Chris smiled and said, "Your senior sisters have all disembarked, why don't you leave?"

She lowered her eyes, suddenly shy, as if she had made up her mind, she raised her head and suddenly asked, "What's your name?"

"Me?" Chris hesitated to tell the girl which name he used.

"Xiao Yi, still not leaving?" Qin Yujiu called in front.

"Xiao Yi......" the girl muttered, and then turned to chase after a few senior sisters.

Xiong Daiying watched the girl's light figure squeeze into the crowd, sighed and said, "Brother Xiaoyi, you are really good at attracting bees and butterflies." ”

Qin Yujiu's sentence floated in front of him: "Three days and four evenings!"

Ning Yifei shook his head and followed off the boat.

When Chris and Hong Qili were left on the boat, he said, "Don't toss us, next time you will make your face ugly!"

"I ...... I ......, "Chris, I didn't know what to say for a long time, and I said in my heart: You are all naked jealousy."

Zi Ling jumped off the board, squeezed into the crowd, and finally arrived at a place with her sisters, her face flushed with eagerness.

She secretly pulled Senior Sister Jiu and said, "I asked, his name is Xiao Yi!"

When Huang Jingjing heard this, she booed: "When you hear it, it's a fake name! They must be the same as us when they go to the island, they have another purpose!"

Zi Ling nodded and said, "A fake name is a fake name, anyway, if you can have a name, you can greet him." ”

The whispers of the two girls, in fact, the three senior sisters heard it, as for Zi Ling to do that, Mai Xiu did not stop it, although the two junior sisters are young, they are always very energetic, as long as they don't do anything out of the ordinary, Mai Xiu doesn't want to interfere too much, she doesn't want to be like the master with a serious face at any time, making it difficult for people to approach. In fact, she is a very competent senior sister and is very respected by the junior sisters.

Gao Liang'er looked at the little junior sister, and suddenly had a faint feeling in her heart, she couldn't say what she felt, was it envy? Is it unwilling? Can she also have the courage of the little junior sister?

When Chris and the others entered the long hall of the sand gate, they found that it was already crowded with people, hundreds of them.

A family member had already stepped forward and brought Qin Yujiu and his party into the upper seat, Chris and the four of them were escorted by their side, and the rest of the entourage was led to the residence specially prepared for Qin Yujiu on the island to settle down.

On both sides of the top of the long hall, there is a stone corridor, Qin Yujiu's seat is on the left, and the disciples of Bixia Zhenren sit in the stone corridor on the right.

A high platform was built in the center of the long hall, with three seats on it, and the left and right were guest seats, and Wang Shu was already sitting on the right, his expression was calm, and he looked relaxed and ordinary.

The main seat and the other guest seat are still empty.

The people in the long hall are naturally all martial arts people, when these people were in the port, they were still talking and laughing freely, but when they entered here, the momentum was different, and the hall was full of depression and tension.

Hong Qili looked around, but he didn't know any of them, obviously, the decent people he was familiar with in martial arts disdained to participate in this kind of activity. Most of these people are general, but there are obviously a few masters in them, and they do not show evil faces, but have a restrained aura.

The bald sarcoma man they had seen in Jufeng Building in Qingzhou City was also in the crowd at this time.

Wang Xu, who was sitting on the stage, was bored, he didn't want to stare at these big men with big eyes, he squinted at a big stone door on the edge of the long hall, and shouted, "Xiao Hei!"

Before the words fell, a middle-aged man in a black satin brocade suit ran out of the stone gate next to him.

"Xiao Hei, where are you lords?"

Because some people have seen Wang Shu in Qingzhou Jufeng Building, his officialdom status, the people under him know, and they all secretly laughed out loud when they heard him call him the deputy master. Chris said in his heart: Wang Xu, like himself, loves to give people nicknames.

Chang Yutong coughed a few times and said, "The lord is going to pick up an old friend, and he will be there soon!"

Wang Xu raised his eyebrows, meaning that there are more distinguished guests than me.

Chang Yutong hurriedly diverted the conversation and said, "Why don't I tell Lord Zhan about the island seizure conference?"

Wang Shu smiled with satisfaction, he swept his fingers, and said, "This is the first time you have been on the island, let's talk about it, what are these people looking at!"

Chang Yutong looked at a tall and thin man who was closer to the high platform, and said, "This is the gate of Shennongmen, Changbei, Zhang Daguan!"

Chris also looked over, the man was like a bamboo pole, his face was lonely, and he always looked at others as if he owed someone a few dollars.

"Shennongmen?" Wang Xue said, "But the master of the Ice Heart Hall?"

Chang Yutong replied: "Exactly!"

Bingxintang is a medicine hall opened by Shennongmen, and the Jianghu doctors are known as "Southern Materia Medica" and "Northern Shennong". In the south, there is Gu Taisu of Jintang County, Sichuan, and the "Materia Medica" he opened is the most famous in the south of the Yangtze River; in the north is Zhang Changbei of Shennong Mountain in Huaizhou, who has first-class medical skills, and the heroes and heroes of the northern roads who are injured or sick all go to his "Bingxintang" to get medicine.

Zhang Changbei's martial arts are not first-class, and his light skills are acceptable, but because of his status as a famous doctor, he has a bit of fame in the rivers and lakes. However, he is lonely and cold, and he is very stingy, so the people in the rivers and lakes always call him "Zhang Changbei" behind his back.

Zhang Changbei heard that he was introduced by name, and there was no emotion in his eyes.

"These three are the three heroes of Montenegro, they are the villagers of this island, and they are frequent visitors to the island seizure conference!"

Everyone turned their eyes to the three people of different heights, the three brothers were dark-skinned, as if they were not used to everyone's sight, and they smiled honestly, looking a little embarrassed.

"This is Qiu Yulong at the bottom of the fan!" Chang Yu Channel, "Qiu Gongzi is a familiar face!"

Qiu Yulong shook his fan and smiled, "I heard that Lord Li has prepared ten beautiful women this year, but I don't know if there are any of those fairy beauties?"

The Taoist aunt of the Taishan faction in the right stone corridor was angry when she heard that this Qiu Yulong was taking advantage of her mouth without reluctance.

Mai Xiu said secretly: This lewd thief didn't really have any intentions on his junior sister, he must remind a few junior sisters when he goes back, and beware of this person.

Everyone knows that Qiu Yulong's family has a group of concubines, but they still covet the beauties of Shamen Island, and now even the female Taoist priest invited by Shamen Island is worried about it, which is really lustful. However, people who know the goods are a little jealous of him, and they know that his "fan bottom" is indeed a bit powerful.

Chang Yutong listened and said: "Immortal Gu is an outsider who cultivates immortals, and Qiu Gongzi is not a cultivator, so it is more suitable to be a beauty on the island! ”

Chang Yutong's words were very good, not only to protect the guests invited by Salmon Island, but also to not offend Qiu Yulong, but also aroused greater interest in his heart. At this moment, there was a look of hope in his eyes, and there were many reveries in his mind.

Chang Yutong introduced these people to Wang Shu are the most capable characters, he looked at the rest of the people, they are all extremely vicious people in the rivers and lakes, they are all doing things that hurt nature and reason, and kill innocents indiscriminately, the reputation of "catching and stealing the ruler" makes people have some scruples, Chang Yutong doesn't quite understand why he mainly invited this lord to participate in the island seizure conference.

But that was in the past, since he took office in Qingzhou, Wang Shu has never done anything to catch thieves, he indulges in landscapes, and makes friends with famous people all over the world, often gets together with these elegant people, reciting poems against each other, splashing ink and painting. Li Qing figured out the temperament of a child of a family like Wang Xu, and found out that he liked famous calligraphy, so he sent people to send precious calligraphy and paintings several times, so he got on the line. Seeing that the day of Wang Xu's resignation was approaching, and he would soon return to Beijing to report on his work, Li Qing personally led people to Qingzhou to entertain Wang Xu, and presented a valuable gift, the purpose of which was to hope that Wang Shu could help him introduce some high-ranking officials in the capital in the future. As soon as Wang Shu saw that the generous gift was actually the inscription of "Wang Youjun," he was already smiling; while he was happy, he offered to go to Shamen Island to watch the "island seizure meeting" and cheer for Li Qing before returning to Beijing. Li Qing was overjoyed, and naturally agreed.

Chang Yutong has always been a cautious and serious character, Li Qing asked him to receive Wang Xu, he has a deep meaning, he instructed Chang Yutong to be more restrained in many things, don't do too much.
