The rain continued for eight days and finally stopped.
The sky cleared, the sun shone down, and small colorful bridges appeared in the sky.
Mu Siyu did not rush to leave the island, but placed Lu Yi on the island to recuperate.
"Madam, this place is so beautiful." One of the subordinates said with a smile, "Madam, are you still missing someone? How about you tell me to transfer me here to protect you?"
Lu Yi glanced at him lightly: "Thinking about it this way, it's not impossible. When you lose arms and legs, I will ask my wife to arrange for you to take care of yourself here."
"I am still more willing to follow the adults. Following the adults is the right way to make achievements. I was joking just now. Please don't take it seriously."
"Dog legs." Lu Zhiqian said angrily, "You don't like the beautiful scenery here, but you like the beautiful girls here."
"hey-hey……"
Lu Yi's men were laughing and joking, and the entire island became more masculine because of their presence. But she also discovered that these men were very young, at the age when they were starting a family and starting a business.
"Dad, Mom..." Lu Zhiyun came over.
"Yun'er is here." Mu Siyu withdrew her hand from Lu Yi's, "How's it going at the shipyard?"
"Everything is running normally, don't worry. However, there is a letter from the capital, and my daughter brought it here."
Lu Yi took the letter and opened it in front of mother and daughter.
"Did something happen in the capital?"
"I released the news that I had died in a shipwreck, and people in the capital really couldn't keep their temper."
"What are your plans next?"
"I'm waiting for news from King Zhong," Lu Yi said. "When the time is right, I will return to the capital."
"Then until the time is right, you can stay here to recuperate and you are not allowed to go anywhere. Do you think you are still a young man?"
"good."
While Lu Yi was recovering from his injuries, several more ships of "Dream Set Sail" were completed.
They have been busy with these things every day for more than half a year, and now they have finally achieved some results.
"No, it's still wrong." Mu Siyu took every ship, but she always felt that something was missing.
"What's wrong?" The shipbuilder didn't understand.
Mu Siyu couldn't explain it, she always felt something was wrong.
"Let me think about it."
In the next half month, Mu Siyu either stayed in the shipyard or meditated in the study.
Suddenly one day, there was an extra person in her room.
She was about to call someone, but the man lit the candle and revealed a monster's face.
"Ruan Qi?"
Ruan Qi's face, unless it's disfigured, can be recognized at a glance even if you haven't seen it for several years. After all, it's so charming, like a vixen.
Still a male fox.
She looked at his clothes. They were still in a very luxurious style. Even though he was sneaking into other people's territory secretly like now, he was still so flamboyant.
"I have secret guards here. Are those secret guards asleep? A big living person like you appeared in my study, and no one came out to stop you."
"You have a total of fifteen secret guards here." Ruan Qi said, "Two at the door, three outside the study, one in the corridor on the left, and..."
Ruan Qi told the locations of the fifteen secret guards.
Mu Siyu sat down opposite him: "So, how did you get in?"
"While they were blinking, phew..." He made a flying motion and slipped in from under their noses.
Mu Siyu: "..."
What kind of speed is that?
"Why are you here?"
"Passing by here, I stopped by to see an old friend."
"Your brother runs your 'only business', so what do you usually do?"
"Traveling around the mountains and rivers, walking around and looking around, I have spent two years of leisurely life." Ruan Qi leaned there lazily, "Don't you have good tea here? This tea is not good."
"I don't like drinking tea." Mu Siyu said, "On weekdays, the tea in the room is for entertaining guests. You are too mouthy, so you don't like it. I don't have any good tea here that you can like.
"
"Forget it, just water will do." Ruan Qi drank the water. "I heard that you are building a ship, how is it?"
"I encountered a little problem and I can't figure it out. I'm still confused."
"Tell me and listen."
Mu Siyu shook her head gently: "This shipping business is confidential and cannot be leaked. I'm sorry."
"Okay, then I won't look at your boat. I'll just ask you, what was your original intention in building the boat?"
"Build an army at sea." Mu Siyu said, "This sea area is the blessing of the people, but it is also a hidden danger. If a good country attacks from here, we won't even be able to fight back."
"That's not necessarily true. We can only say that there will be heavy losses here in Sanlin City, but once ashore, our soldiers will not be vegetarians." Ruan Qi said.
Mu Siyu looked at Ruan Qi: "The tone you speak now is very much like a general who has been on the battlefield, as if you often lead soldiers to fight."
Ruan Qi touched his nose: "I just have confidence in our soldiers."
"We don't care whether we can win the battle on land, at least we can't let them dominate at sea." Mu Siyu said, "Let's not talk about anything else. If we don't have our own sea army, the people here will
Wouldn’t it be better to let the bandits at sea bully us? Have you heard about what happened not long ago?”
"That's right, so if you want to build a maritime army, you need to build a warship. What is the most important thing about a warship? One is to fasten it safely, the other is to be fast and agile enough, and the third is to
The device on it must be strong enough, and if it can attack the opponent from a distance, that would be the best."
"I understand." Mu Siyu said excitedly, "I know where I am dissatisfied. Safety of fastening is a must, not to mention fast speed, and the device is strong enough. These all meet the requirements. But
, I also want a hidden function. The so-called hidden function means that the ship can swim under the water and sneak under the enemy, so that it can penetrate the enemy's rear without anyone noticing."
"With such a big ship, it's probably not easy to sneak into the water."
"So, I only need to place another small boat inside each ship. The main function of that small boat is to lurk or attack the opponent. Yes, let's do it like this."
After listening to what his men had said, Lu Yi said, "When the man comes out, invite him over."
"That man has been in the study for an hour." The subordinate looked at Lu Yi carefully.
A man suddenly appeared in Mu Siyu's study and stayed alone with her for an hour. If it had been any other man, he would have been furious. However, Lu Yi remained so calm and only ordered to wait for the man to come out.
Bring him here without disturbing the lady.
"Don't worry, he will be out soon."
Mu Siyu found out the reason and discussed with the shipbuilders how to build this new function.
For several days in a row, she had no time to eat with Lu Yi and did not even go back to rest.
Lu Yi stayed alone on the island, looking at the sea from time to time, waiting for familiar ships to come.
"Is Madam always so busy?"
When she was in Hubei City, her career had just started, and she was not so busy. Later in the capital, she started from scratch again, and she was still not so busy. Now when she comes to Sanlin City, she doesn't even care about her injured husband, and even
Isn’t it too busy to stay away from home every day?
When he was in Liangguo, he always thought about whether she would be up at night without food and food without him. Now it seems that he is overthinking. His wife is even busier than him, so how can she have time to think about it?
he?
"Madam is often so busy that she forgets to eat and sleep. Sir, don't be angry. I'll go and urge you." Shang Zhi smiled dryly.
"No need." Lu Yi frowned, "You go and wait on my wife. Don't follow me. I have someone here to take care of you."
After another half month, Mu Siyu finally finished the design drawing. After repeated discussions with the ship's engineers, the plan was finalized, and then it began to be implemented.
She rubbed her neck and said tiredly: "I'm exhausted. Let's have hot pot today to reward myself for being so tired that I almost fell down."
"Madam, I think you should first reward the master who has been neglected by you!" Chanyi said, "He is about to become a wife-watching stone."
Mu Siyu: "...I forgot about him."
"This slave has felt it." Shang Zhi was helpless.
Mu Siyu did not find Lu Yi. When she arrived, Lu Yi left a letter and left.
Mu Siyu muttered while opening the letter: "I ignored him. It's my fault this time, but there's no need to run away from home without saying a word, right?"
After reading the letter, she understood the reason and stopped complaining.
Lu Yi left, but he didn't run away from home. Instead, he heard reports that a group of bandits had broken into Sanlin City and were killing, burning, and looting everywhere. He took his men to deal with it.
"Where's Xiaoyun'er?" Mu Siyu asked.
"The young lady and a few sisters went on a sightseeing trip." Shang Zhi said, "She can't be so unlucky that she meets those bandits by chance, right?"
"Quickly ask your people, how many nursing homes did Miss take out today?"
Chanyi quickly found out and reported the situation to Mu Siyu.
Lu Zhiyun only brought two guards, plus Ding Xiang, there were three people who could protect her.
If he only protected her alone, he should be able to retreat perfectly, but Lu Zhiyun would not leave those sisters alone, so these three people were not protecting Lu Zhiyun alone, but several young girls.
"Chanyi, Shangzhi, send someone to find Xiaoyun'er immediately."
"yes."
"Where are Shaojing and Xiaoqing'er?"
"The wet nurse is taking them at the house."
"No, it's not safe there either. Send someone to send them to the island immediately."
The peace of Sanlin City was broken by a cavalry. They were a group of men with fierce looks.
Those men broke into Sanlin City and killed everyone they saw. The whole street was stained red with blood.
People screamed and fled in all directions. At this time, money and gold were not the most important, but their own lives were the most important.
"Boss, I heard that there is General Jiang here. He is the son of the Minister of the Ministry of War. How about we cut off his head and play it as a ball?"
"The son of the Minister of War? What is that?"
Jiang Wanchen and his men rushed over to stop him.
However, the boss at the head did have some abilities, and Jiang Wanchen was no match for him.
"General!" Seeing that Jiang Wanchen was injured, his subordinates stood in front of him.
Wow, a head was cut off right in front of Jiang Wanchen.
Jiang Wanchen's eyes were red.
That loyal subordinate died to save him. If it hadn't been for him, the other party would have been anxious to go back, honor his mother, marry a beautiful wife and have a fat boy. Now all of this has come to nothing.
"It's your turn next!" The boss swung his sword at Jiang Wanchen.
Jiang Wanchen swung his sword and carried it.
Chi chi chi! The broadsword and the sword made a clashing sound.
Bang! The sword just broke.
"how so?"
How could his sword break?
Phew! An arrow shot over.
Come! Lu Yi hurried over with his men.
"Boss, someone is here again."
"Well done!"
When the boss saw Lu Yi, he grinned and said: "Another one is here to die. It just so happens that my knife is not full yet, so let it drink for a while."
Lu Yi grabbed his sword and jumped towards the boss.
The boss fought with Lu Yi for dozens of rounds.
Bang! Lu Yi's sword also broke.
Jiang Wanchen had always been worried about Lu Yi's safety, and when he saw this scene, he became suspicious.
Why did his sword and Lu Yi's sword break? You must know that his sword is not an ordinary sword, but made by a top swordsmith. Before today, no weapon could break it, let alone
fracture.
Something's wrong, there's something wrong with these people's weapons.
Jiang Wanchen believed that he had trained his troops hard, and his soldiers were not idiots, but today they faced these bandits, and they were so seriously injured.
Now that he had a guess, he was just waiting to control these bandits before confirming whether the answer in his mind was true.
"Boy, what are you doing standing still?" Lu Yi said to Jiang Wanchen, "throw the sword to me."
Jiang Wanchen came to his senses and quickly threw the sword beside him to Lu Yi.
Lu Yi caught the sword and stabbed the boss in the waist.
"Boss..."
"Who are you?" The boss took a few steps back, covering his injured area, and looked at Lu Yi with vigilant eyes. "It's just that there is an army stationed in this small Sanlin City. Why are there other masters?"
"Who are you? Who asked you to attack Sanlin City?"
"We take people's money to help them eliminate disasters." The boss said, "As long as you let us go, I will tell you about this."
"Leave? What are you dreaming about?" Jiang Wanchen's subordinates said, "Now that you are here, don't even think about leaving. You have killed so many of our brothers, and we must avenge them."
"If you don't let us go, this little girl will suffer."
A bandit came over holding Lu Zhiyun hostage.
The moment Lu Zhiyun appeared, Lu Yi's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. Looking at Jiang Wanchen again, his eyes were even more murderous.
"It's simply courting death."
Lu Yi threw out the sword in his hand.
Lu Zhiyun saw the sword getting closer and closer, and stepped on the bandit hard.
"Ah..." the bandit screamed and let go of Lu Zhiyun.
Lu Zhiyun squatted down.
With a bang, the sword stabbed the bandit in the neck.
Jiang Wanchen jumped up and protected Lu Zhiyun.
Lu Yi looked back at the bandits and said to his men: "There is no need to show mercy to them, they will be killed without mercy."
