On the vast sea, the endless blue water is connected to the blue sky in the distance, as if that is the end of the sky and the sea.
A large ship was sailing alone between heaven and earth. The wind was strong at this time, and the sails on the big ship were whirring.
There were three people standing on the bow of this big ship, two very old men, both with white hair and wrinkles on their faces, but their bodies looked very strong.
The clothes on the two of them were blown by the sea breeze from time to time, and their arms were exposed as the clothes fluttered, and the muscles on their waists and abdomen were tangled.
A young man stood among them. He was slightly thinner than them. He looked energetic and in good spirits. He was talking to the two old men with a smile.
It seemed to make the two old people laugh. The two old people laughed forward and backward, and their hearty and hearty laughter spread far and wide along with the wind.
In the sky, several huge monsters were following the ship forward, and a black spot slowly appeared in the distance.
The black spot got closer and closer, and finally its complete figure was revealed. It turned out to be a magic eagle. It flew very fast, and soon it came to the sky above the big ship, circled twice, landed on the stern of the ship, and headed towards the bow.
The other side shouted: "Keep going forward. In half a day's distance, you can see the coastline of Lingding Continent."
When the three of them heard this, they immediately became serious.
"Sink the ship right here. If you get any closer, you will be discovered."
One of the old men said loudly.
The other two nodded and called down the two magical beasts flying in the air.
One of them, an old one and a young one, went back to the cabin to grab a few packages, jumped on the back of a monster, and flew forward.
The old man who stayed behind kept hitting the mast, cabin and bottom of the big ship with his palms.
In just a few breaths, the big ship began to tilt, took in water, and slowly sank to the bottom of the sea.
The old man jumped up onto a monster that had lowered its altitude and followed the ship.
This man and one beast chased the monsters in front of them.
Behind them, the big ship gradually sank, and finally, it completely sank in the sea. The sea and sky were completely blank again, except for the figures of a few magical beasts flying in the sky, which gradually faded away and turned into a few black spots and gradually disappeared.
Between the sea and the sky, the sea is once again vast and empty.
The two magic eagles kept alternately exploring and checking ahead, and occasionally one would return to Ming Zhiyuan and the others to report the situation ahead.
Half a day later, a long coastline appeared in front of them.
A magic eagle flew back again and said to Ming Zhiyuan: "There is no defense on the coastline. There are a few small towns near the sea. There are only a few scattered small fishing villages on the seaside. Should we kill all the people in the fishing villages? Where
Settlement."
Ming Zhiyuan sat cross-legged on the handsome boy and couldn't help but gasp when he heard the magic eagle named Yingque talking.
"Yingque, why do you want to kill all the fishing villages? Are there any warriors in the fishing villages?"
"No, I just saw some fishermen and some people farming."
"They are all ordinary people and civilians. We don't need to kill them all. You are looking for a hidden place near the fishing village. We will stay there. Don't alert the people in the fishing village. Don't let them find you.
, we are here to inquire about information, so we must hide it."
"Oh, I'll look for it."
Ying Que was a little embarrassed. He flapped his wings and flew forward quickly.
Seeing Ming Zhiyuan's expression of toothache, Yu Yizhi sat next to him, patted his shoulder, and said: "Master Zhiyuan, don't worry, these two magic eagles have never been scouts.
It’s Warcraft, so it’s normal to not understand some things. Fortunately, they are all obedient. What do you say? They will do it, and that’s the most important thing.”
Ming Zhiyuan nodded and looked at the coastline in the distance. He could already see scattered woods and villages on the shore.
After a while, the magic eagle flew back again and brought them to a rugged rock cave on the coast.
This is a rock pile exposed out of the sea, with a radius of only a dozen feet. The rock is covered with various seaweeds, snails, and rock shells. It seems to be a rock pile that can be submerged at any time when the tide rises or falls.
The rocks were piled facing the sea, and there was a cave arched out by the rocks. Ming Zhiyuan and the other three walked in and took a look. It was okay to hide, but they were afraid that once the tide rose, the place would be submerged by the sea.
Yu Yizhi looked around, then walked out to look at the coasts on both sides, and said, "I'll go over here and have a look. Brother Yang, you go over there and meet us back in half an hour."
Yang Yiling nodded and led a demon eagle patrolling at high altitude to fly away. His body was floating and fast as lightning. After a few leaps, he was no longer visible.
When Yu Yizhi saw this scene, he smiled knowingly, lowered his body and leapt towards the other side of the coast.
Ming Zhiyuan let Feng Wu fall to the ground, gave it a few words, and asked it to continue patrolling to see which direction there was a big city?
Half an hour later, Yang Yiling and Yu Yizhi came back one after another. Yu Yizhi found no place to hide in the direction of his patrol. There were only a few hundred people in several small fishing villages. If the three of them suddenly joined them, they would be very conspicuous.
When Yang Yiling came back, he was holding a casserole in his hand. The pot was steaming with several fish and shells boiled in it.
Seeing Ming Zhiyuan and Yu Yizhi looking at him in surprise, they said indifferently: "Don't worry, no one saw it. When I came out of the village, the family was scolding the next door. I guess the next door family often doesn't tell me like me.
And take, hahahaha..."
Ming Zhiyuan and the other two shook their heads and smiled bitterly. They had been eating dry food for a long time at sea. It was rare to have this pot of hot food. The three of them took a few wooden sticks brought by Yang Yiling, split them in half, and used them as chopsticks to eat.
.
The handsome boy smelled the fragrance and walked in. Ming Zhiyuan threw him a sea fish. He caught it with his mouth and chewed it for a few times before spitting it out. He thought that this fish was better than catching a fish in the sea and eating it raw.
eat.
After the three of them had a full meal, Yang Yiling took everyone to the edge of a cliff near the sea. There was a wooden house in disrepair on the cliff. Although the wooden house was in dilapidated condition, it was much better than the rock cave they were in.
.
Waiting until night, Feng Wu didn't come back, so the three of them rested in the wooden house that night. Early the next morning, the magic eagle was outside the wooden house and pecked at the wooden door with its long beak.
Ming Zhiyuan hurriedly walked out and saw Feng Wu coming back, looking exhausted.
"What's wrong?"
Ming Zhiyuan asked it hurriedly.
"There are only small cities for five or six hundred miles around here. There is a big city a thousand miles to the east. I don't know what it is called. That city is huge, bigger than Tianyang Kingdom. There are four other cities around the big city.
A smaller acropolis."
As Feng Wu answered, he grabbed a wild sheep with his paws and kept pecking and biting the flesh of the wild sheep with its sharp curved beak.
After it had eaten enough, it threw the remaining half of the wild sheep to the magic eagle next to it.
Yang Yiling and Yu Yizhi also came out and heard what Feng Wu said.
Yang Yiling waved his hand without thinking and said:
"Let's go, let's go to that big city to see it."
Yu Yizhi and Ming Zhiyuan nodded and said nothing.
After a while, the handsome boy carried Yu Yi Zhi and Ming Zhiyuan on his back, and the lazy cat flew back from nowhere, carrying Yang Yiling on his back, and Feng Wu led the way. The two magic eagles spread out to both sides for more than a hundred miles, and headed east together.
fly.
...
In Wangtian City in Lingding Continent, on a garden covered bridge in the city lord's palace and the back palace, a man in his forties, wearing a moon-white robe, was seen quickly crossing the covered bridge, layer upon layer,
Walking briskly in the back house of the complex building in the courtyard.
He ran for a long time and finally came to a small courtyard full of green bamboos.
Two servants guarding the courtyard gate saw the man coming out of breath. One of them walked into the courtyard to report. After a while, he walked out again without saying a word. He stretched out his hands into the courtyard and signaled the man to come in.
.
The man adjusted his robe, patted the corner of his robe, and then bent down and walked into the courtyard.
There are a total of three houses in this courtyard. The houses occupy a very small area. The courtyard is lush with green bamboos. A stone path passes through the bamboo forest and leads to a door in the middle.
The man walked outside the door, bent even lower, and said respectfully: "My subordinate Liao Zhen seeks to see the Lord of the City."
After waiting for a while, a clear young voice came from the room, "Come in."
The man bent over and did not dare to raise his head as he walked into the wooden house step by step.
In the room, there was a huge blanket embroidered with patterns spread on the floor. A young man of about eleven or twelve years old was sitting on his knees on the blanket, pinching the feet of an old man who was lying on a wooden raft.
The man still didn't dare to raise his head, he just knelt outside the blanket, knocked his head heavily on the ground, and said: "To inform the Lord of the City, the Lord of Senlan City has agreed to the marriage proposal. He only waits for us to send the betrothal gift and then we can set a date for the wedding.
"
The old man lying on the wooden slump had white hair as white as snow, but his face was like that of a child, without a single wrinkle. His complexion was rosy and shiny, and his eyes were sparkling. He looked like he was in his thirties or forties.
It can also be said that he looks like he is in his sixties, with a standard boyish face and white hair.
After listening to the man's report, the old man looked happy, laughed a few times, and waved to the young man doing the massage. The young man took out a wooden box from a cabinet behind him and held it in front of the man with both hands.
"Take it, this is a reward from the Lord of the City to you. If things are done well, I will leave the betrothal to you. Within a month, the youngest daughter of the Lord of Senlan City will be brought into our City Lord's Mansion."
The man lowered his head lower, took the wooden box with both hands, and said: "Yes, I will definitely bring back the city lord's wife within the month."
"Go down."
"Yes, I am resigning."
The man took a few steps back on his knees until he was in front of the threshold, then stood up and still bent over and exited the door.
The young man knelt down under the old man's wooden floor again, held the old man's feet in his arms, and continued to knead them.
The old man rested his head on a big pillow and looked at the bamboo leaves outside the house, which were blown by the breeze and made a rustling sound.
"Zhuang'er, have you seen the little daughter of Lord Senlan City? Do you think she is beautiful?"
The old man lightly kicked the young man and asked.
The young man raised his head, with a sunny smile on his face, and said: "Zhuang'er met him once when he followed the city lord to Senlan City to attend the birthday banquet of Senlan City lord. At a glance, he was astonished."
"Ha ha ha ha......"
The old man laughed again and kicked the young man again. The young man held the old man's feet tightly in his arms, and shook his body back after being kicked. He still had a smile on his face and continued to squeeze it seriously.
At this time, several young men about the same age as Zhuang'er came in one after another from outside the house, carrying several food boxes and wine jars, as well as cups, bowls, chopsticks and plates, and placed them on the low table in front of the old man.
The old man sat up, took the wine glass handed by a young man, drank it all in one gulp, and immediately threw the glass on the low table. He pulled a young man next to him who was smiling charmingly at him and held him in his arms, with an obscene expression on his face.
