Jiang Xingchen was stunned, unable to believe that Goddess Tang could say such coquettish words.
Ever since the conversation at the beach, Goddess Tang has been changing almost every day, but Jiang Xingchen is still a little uncomfortable with such a sudden sentence. This change must be too big.
Tang Chuxue felt like her face was on fire at this moment. Her original intention was that she had no strength and could not hold the chopsticks or carry the bowl, but who knew that the tone of her voice changed.
"I...can't hold up chopsticks!" Tang Chuxue quickly explained.
Only then did Jiang Xingchen understand what Tang Chuxue meant, but then he frowned and couldn't even lift the chopsticks. This was not as simple as physical exhaustion.
"Is it so serious?" Jiang Xingchen sat opposite Tang Chuxue and said, "I still have plum blossom stamens here, do you want..."
"No!" Tang Chuxue slowly shook her head and said softly: "My body is very weak now, and my muscles and bones are severely damaged. The genius treasure is too powerful, and it will kill me if I eat it!"
"Then what should we do? How about calling the old man here!" Jiang Xingchen was at his wits end, he was really not good at this!
"You don't need him! Just rest every day, don't do strenuous exercise, and wait until your physical strength recovers before using plum blossoms!" Tang Chuxue said.
"Huh~" Jiang Xingchen breathed out, his heart relaxed a little, and asked: "There won't be any old wounds left, right?"
"Probably not!" Tang Chuxue smiled, lowered her head slightly and whispered: "I'm hungry!"
"Oh!" Jiang Xingchen responded with relief, and hurriedly picked up the noodles. Mixed the noodles evenly, picked up a few strands and brought them to Tang Chuxue's mouth.
Tang Chuxue felt a warmth in her heart. She opened her small mouth, bit the noodles with her teeth, and gently sucked it into her mouth.
After that, neither of them spoke, and the only sound left in the cabin was the clinking of chopsticks and bowls, and the sound of Tang Chuxue sucking noodles.
Tang Chuxue ate in her mouth while her eyes kept staring at Jiang Xingchen. It is said that serious men are the most attractive. Jiang Xingchen was like this at this moment. He picked up the noodles carefully and brought them over carefully, both gentle and devoted. Tang Chuxue
Chuxue actually gradually became addicted to it. She just hoped that time would stay at this moment forever.
I don't know if the noodles were cooked to her liking, or Tang Chuxue was really hungry, or maybe she didn't want this heartwarming scene to end. As a result, Tang Chuxue ate the whole bowl of noodles.
In the end, Jiang Xingchen was a little surprised, shook his head and said: "Hey! I shouldn't have given you so much to eat. Your body is injured, so you should eat less and more often!"
With that said, Jiang Xingchen took the towel and gently wiped off the bittern stuck to Tang Chuxue's mouth.
Tang Chuxue laughed. Her eyes looking at Jiang Xingchen became increasingly blurred.
Jiang Xingchen was also swayed by Tang Chuxue's smile. It was so beautiful! But the next moment he forced himself to look away, turned around with the bowl, and said, "You should rest for a while. I'll clean up the bowls and chopsticks!"
"You, the great duke, still need to clean up the dishes and chopsticks! Come and talk to me for a while. I have something to ask you!" Tang Chuxue said with a smile.
Jiang Xingchen's heart trembled: "You're not asking me about absorbing a large amount of vitality, are you?"
He is really in a dilemma. It has been eight years since he came to this world. He has never let his secrets leak out. But this time he really can't hide it. If he didn't drain the energy around him, no one would be Chongming Lao
Zu's opponent.
"I have to think of an excuse to get through! But what excuse can I think of..." Jiang Xingchen's mind raced, and he turned back to Tang Chuxue. He said softly: "You are injured now, you should rest more!"
"Resting just after a full meal is not good for your health... Also, there are some things I don't understand and I want to ask you!" Tang Chuxue said.
"What don't you understand?" Jiang Xingchen said, reaching out and moving the quilt behind Tang Chuxue back to make her lean on it more comfortable.
"Why do you have to kill Patriarch Chongming?" Tang Chuxue asked.
"Uh!" Jiang Xingchen was stunned. He thought Tang Chuxue was asking him about absorbing vitality, but he didn't expect that this was what he was asking.
Tang Chuxue continued: "If you kill him, it will be difficult to find the hidden map of the secret realm! Don't you want the dragon pill he said? Are you not interested in that secret realm at all?"
"It's good that you didn't ask about absorbing vitality!" Jiang Xingchen breathed a sigh of relief and replied: "Who doesn't want good things? What's more, it is a treasure that can allow warriors to step onto the ninth level of vitality... But Patriarch Chongming is this person
, the threat is too great!”
After Jiang Xingchen said these words, Tang Chuxue fell silent. The threat of Patriarch Chongming was indeed too great. Two years ago, when he was not at the ninth level of vitality, he turned the empire upside down, and all the great ministers died under him.
In his hands, he was almost beaten to death. Now that he has been promoted to the ninth level of vitality, no matter whether it is a cannon, a crossbow, or a killer whale, he is helpless.
The only person who can threaten him is Pinky, but Pinky chased him for so long two years ago without succeeding, and I'm afraid it's even more impossible now.
Jiang Xingchen continued: "As long as this man dies, the Wang family fleet will never be able to live in peace for a day! No matter how powerful the cannon is, it can't hit him as he moves quickly, and the killer whales are no match for him. They might become his trophies... I
If you want the hidden picture, you will definitely not be able to kill him.
He will not be stupid enough to trust me and hand over the map directly to me. The only way is to negotiate and reach an agreement that everyone can accept... But this will give him time to recover. He is a nine-year-old man.
Layer, it is very dangerous to give him time to recover!"
Tang Chuxue said: "So if you don't want to take this risk, you must kill him!"
"That's right!" Jiang Xingchen nodded and said, "Once you miss this opportunity, it will be even harder to kill him than to reach the sky!"
"Hey! It's just a pity that the hidden picture, the Dragon Pill that can push people to the ninth level of vitality, is a rare treasure!" Tang Chuxue felt a little regretful.
Jiang Xingchen chuckled and said: "Who said that if you kill him, you can't find the picture! You said it just now, it's just not easy to find!"
Tang Chuxue was a little surprised and asked: "Are you going to Chongming Island? It's not much smaller than our empire, how can you find it?"
"Yes! That's what I think!" Jiang Xingchen answered Tang Chuxue in the affirmative and said: "I don't believe that no one on Chongming Island knows about this picture! He went to some secret place, even if it is kept secret, it is impossible not to tell anyone
.As the highest force in Chongming Island, his existence or not is related to the development trend of the entire force and his right to speak overseas!"
At this point, Jiang Xingchen's voice deepened: "Since someone knows, it's easy to handle! Chongming Island is very big, but I don't have to find it myself. I just need to force them to hand it over to me!"
"What do you want to do?" Tang Chuxue looked confused. She really couldn't think of how to force the other party.
"In the past, the Wang family's fleet was weak and had no choice. But things are different now. More than twenty seven-story treasure ships carrying cannons are enough to blockade all the major ports in Chongming Island. The daily losses will make them cry to death!"
Tang Chuxue suddenly realized that she was not familiar with the sea, so she could not think of these things. Blocking other people's ports and not allowing the fleet to enter or exit was quite cruel.
"In addition, I have another reason to kill him!" Jiang Xingchen said.
"What other reason is there?" Tang Chuxue was even more surprised.
"Because he has been plotting against us..." Jiang Xingchen sneered and said, "I wonder if you noticed, he said that there is a Dragon Pill in that secret realm... The question arises, since there is a Dragon Pill, why doesn't he himself?
Take it, but tell us when you come up."
Tang Chuxue narrowed her eyes and said: "This shows that the secret realm is very dangerous. Even if he wants to take away all the dragon pills, he can't do it... He can't even reach the ninth level of vitality. Imagine how dangerous it is inside!"
"So! He wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife from the beginning. Even if we get the hidden map, we all have to die in the secret realm. How can I fulfill his wish?"
Tang Chuxue nodded silently. Although it was a bit difficult to find the picture, it was really urgent to get rid of the serious problem on his mind.
"If you find the picture, are you still ready to go?" Tang Chuxue asked.
"Of course I want to go, Long Dan, how can you miss such a good thing!" Jiang Xingchen nodded affirmatively. Then he stepped forward and gently lifted the back of Tang Chuxue's head and moved the quilt away.
"We talked for a long time after dinner. You're tired too. Take a good rest!" Jiang Xingchen said, laying down Tang Chuxue on his back.
"Yeah!" Tang Chuxue responded and closed her eyes slightly.
Jiang Xingchen smiled, like a husband taking care of his sick wife, and covered Tang Chuxue with a thin quilt, then picked up the bowls and chopsticks and walked towards the door.
As soon as Jiang Xingchen walked to the door, Tang Chuxue, who was on the bed, opened her eyes again, looked sideways at him and asked, "Xingchen, do you know what is the best way to keep a secret?"
Jiang Xingchen paused, turned around and looked at the smiling Tang Chuxue, thought about it seriously, and laughed: "The best way is to kill someone and silence them!"
Tang Chuxue blinked and said softly: "Then will you kill me and silence me?"
Jiang Xingchen's heart trembled, it sounded like he was flirting!
"Then what... you should rest quickly, I have to ask how the war is going!" After Jiang Xingchen said that, he turned around and ran out.
Tang Chuxue pursed her lips and closed her eyes with a smile. For a moment, she murmured: "It turns out that the ninth level of vitality is not the Great Perfection, but is divided into three stages..."
Jiang Xingchen ran out of the cabin, handed the dishes and chopsticks to a private soldier, and went directly to find Wang Heng.
Knowing that Tang Chuxue had woken up, Wang Heng led the sailors and began to approach the combined fleet. The cannons had stopped firing, and four of the ships sent to the two wings moved to the rear of the combined fleet, forming a siege.
The opponent's lead ship could now be seen very clearly. When Jiang Xingchen arrived, Wang Hengzheng ordered the ship to stop, pointed the cannon at the opponent's lead ship, and then sent a three-story treasure ship over. As long as the opponent was not seeking death, he would definitely not resist.
The opponent had a total of eight ships left, all of which were in dilapidated condition. The Wang family fleet sent a total of four three-story treasure ships.
As expected, the sailors and private soldiers sent there encountered no resistance and quickly boarded the opponent's ship.
However, it didn't take long for the news to come back that the prince and grandson of Sizhou Island and Prince Nangong of Mandan Island had escaped! (To be continued...)
