Meng Xue took a boat into the Yangtze River at Jingling, then crossed the estuary, turned to the East China Sea and passed through the South China Sea, and then went up the Pearl River to Lingnan.

Although it is nearly 800 kilometers from Jingling to Lingnan, it is much faster to go down by boat, and only Shi Qingxuan went to Lingnan with Mengjiao this time. Kou Zhong vowed to take Wagangzhai and now dispatched troops, and Xu Ziling was worried about Kou Zhong, so he stayed by his side and took care of him at all times, and Xu Ziling could also be regarded as a general.

Three days later, the sailing ship encountered a long gust of wind in the East China Sea, doubled its speed, and crossed the South China Sea.

Standing on the bow deck of the ship, Meng Nao said to the Song Valve who greeted him and others to Lingnan: "Where are you now? I see that there are already some people on both sides of the strait. ”

"The distant land shore on the right is Hepu County, and the big island on the left is Zhuya County, which is also the base camp of the Nanhai faction. ”

Meng Zhi nodded silently in his heart, and said, "I don't know which counties this Lingnan includes?"

Shi Qingxuan suddenly covered her mouth and smiled on the side.

Meng Nao was confused and wondered, "What's wrong?"

Shi Qingxuan replied on the side: "Lingnan refers to the vast area south of the five mountains, Yuecheng, Dupang, Mengzhu, Qitian, and Dayu. It's not just about a few counties!"

Meng Zhi knew it in his heart, and couldn't help but praise: "Song Que really deserves to be a masterpiece of a generation!"

Such a vast land in Lingnan, Yang Jian was so relieved to hand over to Song Que, and several reasons can also be seen from it, one is that Song Que is different from ordinary people, at least there are few enemies in the military field, otherwise, the Sui army has already won Lingnan with a million momentum, but now there is a Song valve here. The second is that Song Que has a high reputation here, I am afraid that it is unique, even Yang Jian does not have this deterrent, you must know that the land of Lingnan is dominated by ethnic minorities, and it is difficult to govern, but Song Valve is extremely stable here, if there is no reason for Song Que, I don't believe that Meng Zhi was killed.

Shi Qingxuan took this opportunity to raise her eyes and look into the distance, although she had seen the scenery of the South China Sea the last time she went to the Dongming faction, but for a woman who lived on land all year round, this sea still had an irresistible temptation.

"Is that a coconut tree?" Shi Qingxuan suddenly drank in surprise, pointing to the dense thread-like lanceolate leaves and huge fruits on the shore of the island in front of him.

Meng smiled and said, "Of course, by the way, do you want to taste coconut water? ”

Shi Qingxuan's lips hidden under the veil moved slightly, "Really?"

"Wait until I get it for you!"

At this time, the Song valve people next to him seemed to have something unspeakable, and wanted to speak, but they didn't know how to exit, Meng Nao had already seen the strangeness of the Song valve people on the side, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Sir, don't you know? That island is the center of the South China Sea faction."

"Nanhai Sect?" Meng Nao heard about this strange sect, and said lightly: "What?

"As the saying goes, one mountain can't accommodate two tigers, and this Lingnan land is deep on the shore is the territory of the Song Dynasty, and the shore and the sea are the territory of the South China Sea faction, its head Mei Xun, this year is twenty-seven or eight years old, good at the golden gun, is the most famous master of our new generation of Lingnan, ranking second only to Song Shidao, but martial arts are by no means inferior to Song Shidao. Besides, the Nanhai faction still has a mistake with Chao Gong!"

"Oh?" Meng Zhi wondered, "Is Song Que still afraid of an old immortal?"

Song Valve had a wry smile on his face and said: "Defeating Chao Gongcuo is not difficult for the lord of the valve, but it will become an inseparable mortal enemy with the Nanhai faction, and it will not be beneficial to the enemy or me, so we will live in peace." ”

Shi Qingxuan said: "Mengjiao, since this is the case, forget it, and when we have the opportunity in the future, let's leave for Lingnan now." ”

The eyebrows on Meng's eyes raised slightly, and he said, "I'm afraid it's too late." ”

Hearing this, everyone looked back, but there were several sailing ships sailing from behind the Song valve ship, which seemed to be surrounded.

"Sir, look inside the cabin, wait a moment, and leave it to us here. ”

"No need," Meng Nao bluntly refused, "I want to see how this proud son of the South China Sea Sect is?"

Meanwhile.

On the deck of the sailing ship of the South China Sea faction, I saw a jade-faced golden crown, about eight feet tall, like a weak scholar, wearing a silk cloth shirt, a pair of cloud-stepping boots under his feet, and a golden gun on his back, looking at the approaching Song valve ship, and said to the people beside him: "Have you inquired about the origin of this ship? Song Valve's private salt and merchant ships will not take the South China Sea road, there must be some important things or people on it!"

The bystander said: "The subordinates are incompetent! So far, I haven't heard any news, but I know that this ship is starting from Jingling!"

"Jingling?"

A moment later.

A sailing ship and Song Valve's ship approached each other, and a clear voice came from the Nanhai faction ship, "Mei Xun, the head of the Nanhai faction, I don't know if it's Brother Kou or Brother Ziling, or if both of them are on board?"

Song Valve replied: "I'm afraid that Master Mei guessed wrong, there is no young marshal and others on the ship, but I just brought some gifts for the young marshal to the valve owner." ”

"Oh?" Mei Xun was shocked, "Since Brother Kou doesn't want to see me, then Mei Xun is rude!"

After finishing speaking, the Nanhai faction ship suddenly raised several ropes with black iron square hooks hanging in front of it, and threw them straight at the board of the Song Valve ship.

Song Valve said coldly: "Master Mei, are you planning to make a bad deal with Song Valve? If today's incident reaches the ears of the valve master, I am afraid that your Nanhai faction will be uneasy from now on!"

Mei Xun's voice hesitated slightly, and he stopped talking, but everyone saw that the iron hook on the Nanhai faction ship was withdrawn, and knew that it seemed that Mei Xun had given in, and a figure jumped up from the Nanhai faction ship and landed straight on the deck of the Song Valve.

"Mei Xun came alone, this time Brother Kou can always see him, right?"

Song was silent and looked to the side.

Meng Wei looked at Mei Xun and said, "Xiao Zhong and Ziling are indeed not on the ship, I don't know what the head of Mei has to do here?"

Mei Xun raised his head and looked at the person who was talking in front of him, judging from the situation, he was afraid that this person should be the biggest on the Song valve ship.

"I don't know brother?"

"Under the veil!"

Mei Xun's heart trembled, and his face was endlessly surprised, didn't the news he got from the Central Plains say that Meng Zhi was slapped by Shi Zhixuan, and then trapped in Yang Gong's treasure house?

"It turned out to be Mr. Meng. There were many rudes in the previous days. I hope you will forgive me!" Mei Xun bent down and clenched his fists to show respect, so he declared that the person who rose up, even if the "South China Sea Immortal" Chao Gong came by mistake, he would not dare to be presumptuous, I am afraid that he will be judged by his peers, not to mention Mei Xun himself?

Meng Qian originally thought that this person would not be arrogant and despise him, and he didn't want to have such a demeanor, so he couldn't help but glance at it in his heart, and said, "Master Mei hasn't answered the question below!"

Mei Xun said: "I have long admired the reputation of the young marshal, but I have been born as a commoner but I have won one-fifth of the world, and I have been appreciated by the Song Valve, and the legend is that the martial arts are even more brilliant, so I want to see it, I don't want to really Mr. Meng, since this is the case, I will retire in Xia." When he finished speaking, he got up and left, and did not linger.

However, Meng Wei saw a trace of hurry from Mei Xun's departing figure, but it was only a flash, looking at the departing South China Sea faction ships, and his heart couldn't help but be full of doubts.

A few hours later, the cabin.

"Nozomi, Nozomi"

Shi Qingxuan pouted and slowly inhaled the coconut water, looking very delicious, while Meng Nao sat in front of the window and looked at the scenery outside without saying a word.

Gently put down the coconut, Shi Qingxuan also looked out the window with Meng Yuan, only to see the shadows of the trees on the land in the distance, a thick green, the sound of rustling in the wind in his ears, and the sound of the waves crashing on the shore correspondingly harmonized, in the light of dusk, it looks like a fairy scene in the world, a paradise.

More than a dozen fishing boats are sailing back at the shore, and they only look at the deep hull of the boat and listen to the laughter of the fishermen.

"What?" Shi Qingxuan wondered, "Didn't you return from overseas?
