Happy trip to the Tang Dynasty

In the early morning, the surface of the East China Sea is misty and vast.

On a small uninhabited island near Dongtian Fudi Island, an unkempt and savage-looking weirdo was picking up small fish left on the beach after the low tide.

Suddenly his ears moved, and he looked up at the sea in the distance.I saw that the white mist in the distance was suddenly mixed with a puff of black smoke, and there was a strange rumbling sound from far to near.

From the mist in the distance, a large black ship emerged, emitting black smoke and rumbling loudly, heading this way.

What's the matter with this ship?Is there a fire?

The strange ship stopped when it was still a mile away from the uninhabited island, no matter whether it was black smoke or loud noise, everything died down.The strange man was overjoyed when he saw this, rushed into the nearby woods and quickly picked up a pile of dead branches, then rushed to the seaside, threw the branches forward in the direction of the big ship, and walked forward on the dead branches on the water. Dengping's lightness of stepping on the water.What's more amazing is that the whole process was almost silent, his toes touched the dead branches on the water surface, there was no splash, only a slight ripple, as if there was no big man stepping through the water just now, just a small fish floating Just spit a bubble out of the water.

After the man came to the side, he stepped on the side of the boat and swayed up, but as soon as the soles of his feet touched the hull, he immediately felt something was wrong:

This big ship is actually made of black iron? !

In the Tang Dynasty, iron was very rich, and a high-grade steel knife could be exchanged for a house in the capital.Visually, such a large iron ship is equivalent to floating half of the city on the sea.

With such financial resources, this ship must have a strong background.

The man had already thought of this in the blink of an eye.Originally, he wanted to hijack the ship, but now he hesitated again.But he was already standing on the deck, and his scalp was still a little numb, which he would only feel when his life was threatened.

As soon as he raised his head, he saw a crossbow pointed at him on the second floor of the boat building, and the tip of the arrow was a little cold, which pierced his heart.

"Young Master Liu, long time no see."

A long-haired Wanhua disciple in black came out from the cabin, it was Mu Li.

……

Stir-fried vegetables.Fried cabbage.Fried leeks.

Mr. Liu ate with tears in his eyes: "This is the taste of fireworks in the world! The turtle sons of Dongtian Fudi Island trapped me in this ghostly place for a year, and they didn't even give me food. I ate raw fish every day. Shrimp, it's almost fading out!"

——You didn’t get any serious illness like this, your stomach is really strong.

Mu Li felt his pulse and thought to himself.

"Master Liu, didn't you go after Dean Kang? How did you end up here?"

"Oh, it's not because of those turtle grandsons on Dongtian Paradise Island!"

Mr. Liu followed Kang Xuezhu all the way to Dongtian Fudi Island in the East China Sea.Originally, he thought he had a reputation in the Jianghu of the Central Plains, so he put on a face and went to the island to ask for an interview.When Kang Zhangshi, the head of the Kang family, heard that Mr. Liu was a thief, he didn't want to see him at all, and ordered his left and right to beat him out.

Mr. Liu didn't see Kang Xuezhu, so naturally he wouldn't let it go, so he lurked on Dongtian Fudi Island, secretly looking for Kang Xuezhu's whereabouts.Two days later, he found Kang Xuezhu in an extremely remote barren hill on the island.

Kang Xuezhu lived in a hut next to Wen Qiu's tomb, living in isolation, with poor food and clothing.As a member of the Kang family, not only did he not have anyone to serve him, but he also lacked some necessities in life.And Wenqiu eloped with Yin Tianci because her mother, Kang Huazhen, abandoned her husband and daughter after marriage, and her father died of illness, and she did not inherit her mother's talent. Her tomb on the island was also unswept.

When Kang Xuezhu came to her grave, she saw that her grave was covered with luxuriant grass and the tombstone was buried in dead branches and leaves. It had been left unattended for more than ten years, and she felt even more guilty.Not only did he achieve nothing in the Central Plains, but he was also infamous, which was not liked by the Patriarch at all; in addition, he turned his face into a ghost face, which made Kang Zhangshi, who valued appearance very much, disgusted.Therefore, he was kicked out. As a child of the Kang family, he could stay on the island, but he was not allowed to live in the family.So he built a thatched hut next to Wen Qiu's tomb with peace of mind, and only wanted to be with his dead wife for the rest of his life, and never go to the rivers and lakes to cause more trouble.

Mr. Liu couldn't see him being so decadent, and wanted to persuade him to leave the island. He even suggested that Kang Xuezhu move Wen Qiu's tomb with the mentality of "what to do with a dead man".Kang Xuezhu was annoyed by him, so she made an excuse that leaving the island required permission from the head of the family.

result!Mr. Liu, he!I really went to Kang Zhangshi to reason!

Kang Zhangshi guards the anti-scientific treasures of the mud orchid fruit tree and the Xuchao tree, and is most afraid of someone stealing them. People like Mr. Liu are like cockroaches in the south, they must be shot to death and quickly!The two of them didn't talk speculatively for more than half a sentence, and it didn't take long before they staged a full martial arts exercise.

Mr. Liu's strengths are all in lightness kung fu, kung fu is far from Kang Zhangshi's opponent, he was defeated and fled soon.With his lightness skills, it should be no problem to hide and escape, but he found that no matter where he fled, he would be found immediately, and then attracted endless pursuit.

It turned out that Kangzhangshi was an old man and knew that Mr. Liu was very good at lightness kung fu, so when he was fighting with him, he sprinkled the fragrance powder in his sachet on him.The spices that can be favored by Kang Zhangshi are naturally not ordinary products. This kind of king ambergris not only has an elegant and long-lasting fragrance, but if it is stimulated by internal force, it can penetrate the skin and last for a long time.The fragrance of these powders was forced into Mr. Liu's body by Kang Zhangshi with internal force.

There is a saying that if you stay in the house of Zhilan for a long time, you will not feel its fragrance, and if you live in the place of abalone for a long time, you will not feel its smell.Mr. Liu, who is the center of the fragrance source, didn't feel that the smell on his body was different at all.

There is a kind of golden-eyed bee that is good at chasing fragrances on Dongtian Fudi Island. No matter where Mr. Liu hides, he will soon be spotted by this kind of bee.Because there are orchid orchid trees on the island, Dongtian Fudi Island has been harassed by pirates all year round, and all kinds of open robbery and stealing have been going on all year round. The islanders hate thieves and wish they could kill them all.And because they have resisted pirates for many years, they have rich experience in fire prevention and anti-theft, and they are also good at catching thieves.

Mr. Liu was exhausted by the whole island's search and investigation, complaining endlessly, and was finally taken down by the experts of the Kang family.But because Mr. Liu didn't do anything to endanger Dongtian Fudi Island, the Kang family couldn't kill him, so they exiled him to the deserted island.

"Hmph! Old man Kangzhangshi, just wait and see! If you don't steal your cave and blessed land upside down, I will write the three characters of Mr. Liu upside down!"

"By the way, Mu boy, where have you developed recently? It's unheard of to build a ship with iron. This ship is priceless."

Mu Li was speechless, and could only sneer and say, "It was excavated from an ancient ruin, and it was transformed by Master Situ Yiyi. The powerful means of the prehistoric era are indeed beyond the reach of us mortals."

This iron boat really cannot be regarded as being built by Muli and the others.It's only one year, how can they build a steel factory, and then produce so much steel.

Speaking of which, the material of this ship is still very advanced, using the wreckage of the spaceship buried deep in the ground of the Candle Dragon Hall.Space materials, every gram is priceless!To be used by Mu Li and the others as Fantie is really a waste of money.Most of the hull parts were cut by Shui Wuxin with the power of space. Situ Yiyi and the others just welded them with mortise and tenon joints, which was naturally very fast.

What Situ Yiyi and the others actually completed was the steam engine that was the main power of the ship.This stupid big guy is noisy and pollutes a lot. Mu Li also wants an internal combustion engine!But behind every internal combustion engine, there is an entire country's industrial foundation as the backing, and there is no rush now.

As soon as he heard that Mu Li and the others were going to pick up Kang Xuezhu, Mr. Liu immediately became interested, and kept urging them to seek revenge on Kang Zhangshi along the way.Mu Li didn't want to confront this beauty maniac prematurely at all, so of course he ignored it, but Tang Ying kept in mind the magical effect of the mud orchid fruit tree and the child tree of the child's nest in Mr. Liu's description.

Mu Li and the others were there to steal people, not to fight. The movement of this large steam ship was too loud, so they went to Dongtian Fudi Island, and they used a clipper sailboat loaded on the ship. It's pitch black, and it's called the "Black Pearl".

With Mr. Liu leading the way, the "Black Pearl" took advantage of the darkness and quietly arrived at the place where Kang Xuezhu lived in seclusion.Kang Xuezhu's hermitage is in the most remote place on Dongtian Fudi Island, so it didn't disturb other people on the island.

After not seeing each other for a year, Kang Xuezhu lost a lot of weight, and she looked as if she was going to become a fairy at any moment.He was sitting beside Wen Qiu's tomb, and Mu Li's persuasion could not change his mind.

For such a situation, Mu Li was of course well prepared.He took out a scroll of yin and yang (magic) that he bought from Yuan Mingya: Entering Dreams.

"Using this thing, can I meet the person I've longed for?"

Kang Xuezhu tore the scroll without hesitation.

For a moment, Kang Xuezhu felt as if she had walked a long way in the mist in a trance, as if she had returned to that misty and rainy spring night a long time ago.

That day, Wen Qiu begged him to carve a portrait for her.At that time, he only thought about how to study the texture of human flesh and blood, so he refused casually.Now he naturally won't refuse.He took the "True Water Without Fragrance" that had been carved in his heart countless times, and presented it in front of her.

Wen Qiu caressed the gentle face of the statue woman, with tears in his eyes, and muttered to himself: "So, this is how I look in your heart."

True water has no fragrance and is indispensable.

In the courtyard, spring cherry blossoms bloom, and the flowers fall like snow.Kang Xuezhu invited Wen Qiu to go to enjoy the flowers together. Wen Qiu only took one look at the cherry blossoms, then turned around and said, "The falling flowers hurt too much, I can't bear to see them."

At this time, Kang Xuezhu discovered that Wen Qiu's body was so weak that he was already terminally ill.

Why?Why wasn't it discovered sooner?

"It would be great if the flowers could always bloom unbeaten." Wen Qiu looked at the scattered petals on the ground and sighed.

Flowers are invincible.

OK, I'll take you there.

When Kang Xuezhu opened her eyes again, she found that the time had just passed, and the torn scroll in her hand had just landed.

Mu Li was surprised to find that Kang Xuezhu had changed her mind in a blink of an eye, agreed to his request, and even agreed to remove Wen Qiu's coffin.

Wow, this yin and yang technique is amazing!

When they worked hard all night to get Wen Qiu's coffin out of the tomb and put it on the Black Pearl, Mu Li discovered that Tang Ying hadn't appeared yet!

Something is wrong!Tang Ying usually hides in the dark to protect him. He didn't help when digging the grave just now, and Mu Li didn't think much about it; but now that they were about to leave, he didn't show up, which was a bit abnormal.

At this time, there was a sudden burst of fire in the depths of the island, and the sound of people was so loud that it could be heard even a few miles away by the sea.

"That's... the direction of the mud orchid fruit tree!" Kang Xuezhu lost her voice.

At this time, Tang Ying appeared from the darkness, looking a little embarrassed, holding a branch in his hand, which was the branch of the orchid fruit tree.

Regarding Tang Ying's move, Kang Xuezhu was speechless.

The mud orchid fruit tree only bears fruit once every 300 years, and each fruiting period is only one day.Now is not the time for results, otherwise Mu Li and the others would not have touched the island so easily.And planting mud orchid fruit trees is also extremely complicated. If one branch can be planted, Dongtian Fudi Island will already be full of mud orchid fruits.

Tang Ying also wanted to try his luck.Nilan fruit can strengthen Muli's body, and Xuchaotong fruit can prolong Muli's life and make her look beautiful.It is good to steal any of the mud orchid fruit tree and the Xuchao boy tree.Because the head of the Kang family, Kang Zhangshi, stayed by the Xuchaotong tree all year round for his own beauty, Tang Ying set his goal on the mud orchid fruit tree.

Stealthily touched under the mud orchid fruit tree, he found that there was no fruit on the tree.He estimated the strength of the four guards under the tree, and felt that they would not be able to find out, so he touched the tree while it was dark, intending to break off a branch.Since this thing is so precious, it is also very good to use it as medicine.

However, he did not expect that the small island in the cave where the mud orchid fruit tree grew was itself a mechanism.This mechanism has no lethality, so it did not trigger Tang Ying's intuition of danger.However, as soon as the weight on the island exceeds one tree plus four people, the alarm will be automatically triggered!

Tang Ying saw that since he had been discovered, he simply did not stop doing anything, grabbed a branch and ran away.When Kang Zhangshi led the islanders to Nilan Cave, the intruders had long since disappeared.

The Black Pearl was extremely fast, shooting out like an arrow, leaving behind the brightly lit Dongtian Fudi Island, and submerged into the dark sea.

"You disappeared for no reason tonight, and the mud orchid fruit tree was stolen again. I'm afraid you will never be able to return to Dongtian Paradise Island." Mu Li said apologetically to Kang Xuezhu.

"It doesn't matter," Kang Xuezhu held Wenqiu's coffin, "It is enough to have my wife by my side, and the others are irrelevant.

The "irrelevant" Mr. Liu only felt sour in his heart, and ran to the mast to blow the air with a "hum".

"Although the branches of this mud orchid fruit tree can't wash the tendons and cut the marrow like the fruit, it is also a rare holy medicine for healing. It is said that it has the effect of flesh and bones." Kang Xuezhu said.

"Flesh and bones..." Mu Li looked at Kang Xuezhu's face.

If that bony face can be restored, I really want to see how beautiful the real "plain hands and clear face" is.

"This is an old wound of mine, even if the gods come to this world, it can't be cured, so you don't have to think about it. By the way, before going south this time, can you send me a little north, so I can go to a place to deal with some things.

"Where do you want to go?"

"Seven Shows."
