Canghuan Seven Palaces

, there are a few flat boats floating far and near.

After carefully distinguishing the ethereal singing voice, Feng Lan said in a low voice, "It's a fisherman." He also grew up in a water town when he was young, and fishermen would sing some festive tunes when they returned from a good harvest.

The singing here is naturally different, but the tangled words can still be distinguished.

Slowly putting down the Baili Kan in his hand, Si Cangqing looked back at the few people and said, "Let's borrow that boat!"

The setting sun swayed on the water, and the ships that were far or near approached the opposite shore little by little.

The second final volume: The South China Sea: The Decisive Victory over the Three Islands and the Far Island Cry ([-])

Feng Mo raised his breath, and used his internal force to transmit his voice to the nearest small boat.Si Cangqing kept watching the movement on the boat with a white X, and saw that after Feng Mo's call, the person who was rowing at the stern of the covered boat stopped and looked back to this side.

The man didn't move, just stood facing this side, seemingly thinking about something.

Feng Mo then raised his voice again and shouted: "Boater, can you take us across the sea?"

That person has been hesitating, and after Feng Mo yelled out for the third time, the oars shook slightly once.The canopy boat turned its head slowly, swinging unsteadily on the golden-red sea.

Not long after, the small canopy boat approached the shore little by little.

A fishy smell came head-on with the wind, Si Cangqing sized it up, the boat was not big, but it was enough to carry the weight of several of them.The boatman is an old man with gray hair and beard. His old and withered face is full of scratches left by the years. His slightly squinted eyes and deep smile lines make people feel a little kind. Look up and down.

"Who are you guys?" The old man spoke first, his eyes turned around and finally landed on Si Cangqing's forehead, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

Feng Xiang and the others quickly looked at each other, and secretly cried out in their hearts.The emperor's seal of heaven, fearing that no one in this world would know it, at that moment, Feng Xiang had no choice but to jump onto the boat and touch the opponent's acupoints with one hand.

"What do you mean?!" The old man's eyes widened, his voice slightly raised, and he said sharply, "Could it be that you are the villains that the patriarch is chasing down?"

The old man yelled, in the dialect of Nanhai, it was very difficult for them to understand.Afraid of attracting the attention of other boatmen over there, Feng Xiang hastily tapped his dumb acupoint again.

He opened and closed his mouth but could not make a sound. The old man was not afraid of these people, but just stared at them with hatred.

"I'm sorry, sir." Feng Lan hurriedly apologized, but she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing the other party's reaction, she didn't know Si Cangqing's identity, but just regarded them as gangsters!

"We accidentally strayed into the island, and we were in danger..." Feng Lan looked at Si Cangqing, not knowing what to call the crocodile.

"crocodile."

"Nearly being swallowed by a crocodile." Feng Lan unbuttoned her cuffs, rolled up her sleeves, and showed the other party some wounds on her body. "It's really desperate. I hope you can let me wait for the boat to cross the sea."

The old man's face softened a little, his cloudy eyes rolled around, seeing that they were all in a panic, his nose moved a few times, as if he was smelling the stench heavier than the fish on the boat.

In the end, the old man believed a little, opened and closed his mouth, and wanted to speak.

After the dumb hole was unlocked, he still said suspiciously: "Who are you, and why are you here on Zihai Island? Although you do have the smell of those evil ghost fish on your body, no one has ever been able to escape! "

Ghost fish?Feng Lan smiled slightly when she heard the words, "We... are merchants in the inland area. We originally shipped goods from Nancan to Nanbin... but there was an accident and we lost our way on the sea. Later, we encountered wind and waves and almost got on board with the ship. They sank into the bottom of the sea together. Although they were lucky enough to come to Zihai Island, they didn't know that there were man-eating crocodiles..."

"Fortunately, a few of us know some martial arts. We came here after a narrow escape. We had no choice but to offend you, old man. I hope you can take us across the sea."

The old man snorted, "So, you guys want to snatch my fishing boat regardless of my wishes?"

Looking at each other in embarrassment, Feng Lan was momentarily blocked from speaking.If the other party is really unwilling, they really can only rob this person's fishing boat...

Before a few people could think of an argument, the old man suddenly said: "Come up! The tide will be high soon, and it's more dangerous here at night!"

Hearing the sound, several people hurriedly boarded the fishing boat. The boat swayed vigorously a few times, and Si Cangqing couldn't stand still.

The old man turned his back to them and raised his voice: "Be careful, don't capsize the old man's boat!"

Now that the other party let them board the boat, Feng Xiang hurriedly unblocked the acupuncture points for the old man.Shaking his stiff arms, the old man grimaced and asked several people to help throw the fish in the boat into the sea again.

The canopy boat quickly swayed away from the shore of Zihai Island, and slowly approached the opposite coast.Feeling relaxed, the few people still dare not be careless, the opposite is the place where people live, maybe Qiang Chouci sent someone to guard.

"Master, what do you mean by the bandit?"

Feng Lan seemed to be casually chatting with the old man, and finally asked this question.

He scanned a few people in a vigilant circle, probably seeing that they were all very upright, the old man's face softened, "Not long ago, the patriarch sent people to guard all the seaside villages in Lianghai, saying that some bandits wanted to force them Land, let us be careful when we go to sea."

Taking a quick look at Si Cangqing, Feng Lan smiled again, "No wonder... Thank you for trusting us, if you weren't willing to take us across the sea, we might all be eaten by crocodiles tonight!"

The old man squinted at Si Cangqing who was sitting on the side of the boat, "Old man, I have lived for so long, and I can still tell the good from the bad... I really don't want to commit crimes by crossing the sea with you, and let you be swallowed alive by those evil ghost fish! "

"That is to say, someone used to..."

The old man nodded and said: "In the past, when our Qi tribe wanted to move to Zihai Island, many of them were eaten by those cruel guys, and then we had to live on the high ground on the other side."

"However," the old man said again: "Even if you cross the sea, it doesn't mean you are safe."

Feng Lan hurriedly asked: "How do you say that?"

"You must be crossing the sea from the Orange Sea back to the inland!" The old man said with certainty: "There are some places where there are few people in the middle of the blue sea to the Orange Sea... It's easy for outsiders like you to go. Wrong way, I'm afraid I won't be as lucky as this time!"

◇Cang ◇ Huan ◇ Seven ◇ Palace ◇

"Then how do we get to the west coast of the Orange Sea?" Si Cangqing, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked.

Hearing the sound, the old man turned his attention to Si Cangqing, swaying the oar in his hand, and carefully scrutinized his face.

Seeing this, Feng Lan felt a little worried in her heart - if the old man leaked their tracks, they would be in trouble later.He hurriedly echoed: "Yes, sir, you have lived on the island for many years, so you should know..."

"Old man, why should I tell you?" The old man looked at them haughtily, "It is the utmost humaneness to let you cross the sea... Are you someone from me?"

As a result, several people fell silent and looked at each other in blank dismay.

After a long time, the old man spoke slowly again: "Today, the old man's harvest of the day was lost because of you... Don't you know what to say?"

After being stunned for a while, Feng Lan looked at Si Cangqing in embarrassment.The old man wanted to ask for property from them, but they originally only brought some dry food to explore the situation of the island, so there was no other cumbersome things.

Glancing at the burdens carried by Feng Zi and Feng Mo, the old man said again: "You said that you are businessmen, even though you have suffered a shipwreck, you still have some treasures!"

After hesitating for a while, Feng Lan reached into the light armor and groped for a long time, "We... really don't have anything of value, so let's take the jade pendant I wear with me to express my love, I hope you don't dislike it!"

As he spoke, he took out a piece of simple phoenix jade and handed it to the other party.

Si Cangqing's expression darkened immediately, she got up and reached out to grab the jade pendant, "Lan!"

The old man's eyes were glued to the jade pendant, and he was seriously admiring, "This is an excellent South China Sea ancient jade!" Then he glared at Sicangqing fiercely, "Young master, what do you mean?"

"Master..." Feng Lan looked at the other party pleadingly.

Unable to disobey this man's request, Si Cangqing said in a low voice: "Take mine..." Before he finished speaking, he remembered that his jade pendant was left in the palace, because it was almost lost in the Nancan Forbidden Garden. , so no jade pendant was worn before this trip.

"Master," Feng Lan gently took back the jade pendant from the opponent's hand, and said in a low voice, "It's just a jade pendant, you...you can give me another one in the future." Hope this old man can help.

Feng Lan smiled at the old man, and handed the jade pendant to the old man again.

The old man was happy all of a sudden, freed one hand, happily took Feng Lan's jade pendant, stuffed it around his waist, and then squinted at the coast that was getting closer and closer, "You feel wronged, hide in the cabin... …There are a lot of officers and soldiers searching here these days, you are outsiders, I am afraid that you will be suspected by them.”

After several people entered the cabin, the old man put away the scull, propped up the boat with bamboo poles, and slowly moved along the stone-built seawall.

"Uncle He, how is the harvest today?"

Several people on Pengcang Road listened vigilantly to the movement outside the boat. Most likely the old man was chatting with the people on the shore. The other party seemed to be a sergeant and asked the old man if he saw anything unusual at sea.

The old man replied with a hearty smile, but there was nothing wrong with it.

"After landing, you should pay close attention to this person's movements." Si Cangqing ordered in a deep voice, "If there is no change, I will stay here tonight. Xiangzi will find a time tomorrow,
