Chapter 64

"Not too much," Zhou Lanmu quickly replied, "Now that I know His Highness's thoughts, I have nothing to doubt."

After a while, he changed his expression, and the smile on his face was extremely sincere: "There is one last thing, I want to ask His Highness for something."

Qi Chu raised an eyebrow: "What?"

"Canghai Yuesheng's antidote." Zhou Lanmu replied, "I heard that Canghai Yuesheng was originally the poison of His Royal Highness King Ping's killer organization 'Night Mayfly'. Presumably His Highness should have an antidote?"

Qi Chu took a sip of the tea at hand: "Ah, this matter... I knew that you were suffering from trouble, and I wanted to tell you..."

He sighed: "It was a surprise that the night mayfly came under my command - I had some friendship with the real leader of the night mayfly, and he wanted to ask for an asylum from the government, so he came under my name. But usually At most, they will deal with some people who don't like me for free, in other words, I am not even a master to them, so naturally I can't interfere with their affairs."

Zhou Lanmu's expression remained unchanged: "In this way..."

Qi Chu said: "As far as I know, Canghaiyuesheng is not an ordinary poison, but a kind of poisonous Gu in the southeast. Ask me for it, I really don’t have it.”

Chu Shao had been listening on the sidelines before, until here he turned his head in doubt, and asked: "The moon in the sea... is it the poison that makes the young master's mind go into chaos and often out of control?"

"Exactly," Bai Canglang crossed his legs and explained to Chu Shao, "This poison doesn't harm the body at first, it just depends on the will of the poisoned person-in other words, if the poisoned person is a monk, the five sense organs will be severed. Then this poison is of no use to him. But if you think too much, you will easily hurt your body, have hallucinations, nightmares, and finally go crazy, vomit blood and die. It is not easy for Xiaolan to restrain herself like this now."

The three of them were politely sent out to the southeast by King Ping. On the first day, they rested at the posthouse beside the official road. King Ping sent several people to drive the car for them, so the three of them were considered brisk.

"So serious?" Chu Shao was startled, and glanced at Zhou Lanmu, who was sitting on the side drinking tea, "Young master Lan has so many things on his mind... Can you restrain yourself?"

"That's why Qi Chu wants the antidote." Bai Canglang slapped his leg and said bitterly, "But he didn't. He is ruined, if one is indispensable..."

"In Qi Lang's hands?" Chu Shao was startled, "Why is it in his hands?"

Bai Canglang covered his mouth and realized that he seemed to have missed something, so he changed the subject and said, "Ah, he was in prison when he returned to Zhongyang when he was poisoned. This is Qi Lang's tool to restrain him... ..."

He spoke vaguely. Before Chu Shao thought about it, he suddenly heard Zhou Lanmu whispering in his ear: "We should set off now. Now that Qi Lang is chasing you and me throughout Great India, if To be safe, it is best to take the water, Yuan Jia, go to the pier for me, ask them if there is a fishing boat going north, take us a ride, and avoid many risks of getting along with other guests on the boat."

Chu Shao didn't think much about it, she got up and went out after holding the sword: "Okay."

Seeing him walk away, Bai Canglang poured a cup of tea: "It's so dangerous, so dangerous, I almost slipped my mouth."

He got closer and said in a low voice, "Hey, what did you mean by changing your mind and saving him from prison? I said you were soft-hearted and you really were soft-hearted. You forgot that he was..."

"Of course I haven't forgotten," Zhou Lanmu sipped his tea slowly, and replied, "It's just that he has a bit of conscience, and he really wants to avenge his crown prince—the Xuanjian camp is the best soldier in the entire Great Seal. If he dies, then the military power will fall into the hands of Qi Lang and Wei Shuqing, which will be bad."

Bai Canglang spat: "You'd better keep thinking this way, and don't feel soft-hearted because he still wants to avenge you - what's the use of regretting after death, he avenges you, just for his own peace of mind, Besides, who knows if he has selfish intentions, you should think about it clearly."

"Think very clearly, don't worry," Zhou Lanmu said with a helpless smile, "I can't see that you hate him so much?"

"It's not that I hate him, it's because I think of your miserable appearance back then, and I'm not worth it for you," Bai Canglang said violently, "I haven't forgotten it, you'd better remember it too."

After a while, the two packed up and went to the ferry.Chu Shao happened to be talking to a fisherman in a low voice, and when he saw the two of them approaching, he said, "Where are we going? I asked a few fishermen, and most of them went north, but the fishing boats are all small boats. There is no way to stay overnight, so we can only rest on the islands along the way, and then continue on the next boat."

Zhou Lanmu thought for a while: "That's just right, we just happen to go north, to enter the clouds."

Into the cloud...

King Lie's feudal land is in the clouds. It is the largest city in the east and the largest port for foreign trade in Great India.That was... his hometown.

Chu Shao was startled, and asked somewhat unnaturally: "Why do you want to go to Ruyun?"

"Since we're talking about going east, the most convenient way is to go to Ruyun. It just so happens that we can go to Ruyun to find my friend for help," Bai Canglang replied, holding his chin, "By the way, I didn't finish talking last time! I Do you know the friend who ran to the southern border to rescue, Xiao Yifeng!"

"Xiao Yifeng?" Chu Shao was really taken aback this time, "I haven't seen him for many years, are he friends with Brother Bai?"

"We don't know each other if we don't fight," Bai Canglang replied with a smile, "He told me about you, and when you meet, you can catch up on the old days."

"Most of the boats departing from the southeast go to Ruyun, and the journey is more convenient," Zhou Lanmu patiently explained from the side, "Ping Wang promised to send troops to Zhongyang, and we will leave in half a month. Let's go to Ruyun first to rest and make arrangements. Fan, and then go to Zhongyang to join him."

So the three of them built a two-story fishing boat. There were five or six fishermen in this fishing boat. Puer Island.

There are [-] islands between the southeast and Ruyun, nine of them are close to the shore, they were developed by fishery at first, and are now inhabited, while the remaining three are too far away from the shore and are rarely inhabited.Zhupo is a big island with a well-developed trade. Merchants often come to this island to purchase pearls and amber. There are many inns, which are also convenient.

The three of them negotiated the price with the fisherman and boarded the boat. The weather was very good at noon that day, and they sailed calmly all morning.When the sun faintly began to sink, a fisherman looked up at the distant sky, and suddenly said: "It seems that there is a dark cloud here, which is a bit cloudy... We have to go quickly, if the cloud comes later, I am afraid Things are not going well..."

Zhou Lanmu was still standing on the deck looking at the gray sky in the distance, Chu Shao went out from the cabin and approached him, but he turned around and laughed: "Yuan Jia."

Chu Shao said: "I've always wanted to ask you why you suddenly rescued me from the prison—even if I wanted to kill Qi and Wei, it wouldn't change the fact that I killed the prince back then."

"But you are useful," Zhou Lanmu said without hesitation, "You asked me about this, but did you regret it? There is still time for you to regret it, so go back to Zhongyang now and tell Qi Langquan that I was the one who framed you." you--"

"Don't talk nonsense," Chu Shao frowned. He has recently changed his old foolishness and frowns more and more, "I want to say..."

"boom--"

The sudden loud noise from the stern startled both of them. Chu Shao turned his head to look, and a boatman ran over in a hurry, and shouted as he ran: "The bottom of the boat! The bottom of the boat seems to have been hit by something. Already!!"

Chu Shao turned his head and said, "You and Brother Bai will go to the left side of the bow first, I remember there is a spare wooden boat hanging there."

Zhou Lanmu grabbed him: "What about you?"

"I'll go and have a look," Chu Shao patted him on the shoulder, signaling him to feel at ease, "There are hidden reefs near the sea, I don't know what crashed into the bottom of the boat, I'm afraid there's something strange about it. You don't have to go with me, stay there with peace of mind That's good, if you see Brother Bai, let him help me."

After saying that, he strode towards the stern.Bai Canglang stood at the stern of the boat, and when he saw him coming, he pointed to the water and said, "A brother fisherman went down to check just now, Xiao Chu, please stay calm and wait until he comes up."

Chu Shao looked down, but the fisherman had already emerged from the water. He wiped the water on his face: "There is no one, and there is no stone. God knows how it was broken. Although it can be repaired, I think In this weather, I'm afraid I don't have time, hey guys, hurry up and inform those people, let them hurry up and let the boat escape for their lives!!"

The boat was originally used for fishing in the sea. Some fishermen were worried that the boat would be damaged, so they brought a spare boat, which was only used for survival. When several people boarded the boat together, it felt a bit crowded.

"This, this, this," the boatman closest to them said, looking at the dark clouds that were getting closer and closer to the sky, "at such a time... If this cloud comes over, it may be very dangerous..."

"Hurry up, hurry up, don't talk nonsense," Bai Canglang yelled at him, picked up the oar on the other side, and helped him row together, "The weather on the Cangming Sea is unpredictable, and it really lives up to its reputation..."

As if to confirm his words, there was a loud thunderclap, and Zhou Lanmu was behind Chu Shao. He turned his head and saw him staring at the slowly sinking ship not far away: "Heng Shu ?”

"No," Zhou Lanmu's eyes did not move, "Canglang said that he didn't hit the rocks, and no one was there. How did the boat break? The weather is so bad, we must have no time to repair it, so we can only abandon the boat and escape—"

The boatman who was paddling suddenly turned his head, showing a sinister smile, Zhou Lanmu thought about it, and shouted: "Canglang!"

With sharp eyes and hands, Bai Canglang stopped the boatman who was rushing towards Zhou Lanmu and Chu Shao, pinched his wrist and said in a low voice, "You were only sent to kill our whole boat? Your Excellency thinks too much of himself, and said, Who sent you here?"

The boatman smiled "hehe" and didn't answer him. Chu Shao's temple jumped, and he put his hand into his sleeve: "Be careful, there are hidden weapons!"

Before Bai Canglang could react, the boatman quickly threw a handful of something unknown into the air, and the white powder was scattered in all directions, but he twisted off Bai Canglang's hand when everyone was caught off guard. jumped into the water.

Chu Shao covered his nose, hurriedly said "cover your eyes and nose and don't move around", and then jumped into the water. Zhou Lanmu lost his composure, leaning on the side of the boat, and shouted: "Yuan Jia, come back! Don't chase! "

If it wasn't for Bai Canglang's firm grip on his wrist, he would have jumped down with him just now.

Bai Canglang whispered in his ear: "If you die, you die, why are you so anxious!"

If Zhou Lanmu broke free from his hand, he turned his head and jumped down: "He can't die now!"

The boatman was quite surprised, seeing the two of them outflanking up and down, they went straight to the deeper depths, as if they didn't care about how to get up.

Chu Shao had been in the water before, and he was quite confident in his water skills. He followed the boatman all the way downstream, and suddenly saw the boatman turning his head, and suddenly stopped.

Then he heard Zhou Lanmu's urgent, chaotic sound of bubbles behind him.

Could it be that he deliberately lured them to the depths?

Chu Shao gave a jolt, but suddenly saw white powder disintegrate piece by piece along with the water flow, and it was close to him in a moment.

He could still cover his mouth and nose above the surface of the water, but there was no way to hide in the water, and he didn't even know what it was.The boatman smiled, passed by him silently, and even reached out to push him deeper.

Chu Shao wanted to catch him, but found that he had no strength in his whole body.There were complicated voices ringing in his ears, and some meaningless color blocks gradually appeared in front of his eyes. He tried his best to restrain the feeling that his mind was about to explode, and with the last of his strength, he went upstream and caught Zhou Lanmu .

Zhou Lanmu looked more sober than him. He held Chu Shao with one hand, and slowly played with the waves in front of him with the other, trying to swim upstream.Chu Shao felt that her strength was gradually fading away, and wanted to let him go, but the other party insisted on not letting go, and stubbornly pulled him upstream.

The shadow of the bottom of the boat was no longer visible in the field of vision, and it was completely dark. Chu Shao struggled feebly in the water a few times, and tried his best to grab the water surface.Just as his fingertips touched the water, a huge wave hit him, overturning all his consciousness in an instant.

At the last moment, he felt that the other party hugged him tightly.
