Dragon Warrior

Chapter 128
When Zhang Wuji got the news of Taoist Baishang and Xiao Zhao, Xiao Jing also got the news, and he was very worried when he learned that Xiao Zhao was taken to the south by Taoist Baishang and went to sea by boat.

Baishang Taoist Qiaotu Sanku actually brought Xiaozhao to the South China Sea.Apparently he also knew that the Beggar Gang and the Ming Cult were powerful, and he was the common enemy of both sides. Now that he was seriously injured, it was the best opportunity to take advantage of his illness to kill him.

The Ming Cult and the Beggar Gang are all over the world, and if they deliberately inquire about a person's news, it can really turn three feet into the ground.If it was on land, unless he kept hiding in one place and never came out, he couldn't hide at all.But if it goes to the sea, it is a place where neither of the two forces can reach. If you find a small island to hide, who can find it?Both free and safe.

It's just that Xiao Jing couldn't figure it out, there is a place closer to Dadu where you can go into the sea, why did Taoist Baishang take Xiao Zhao to the south instead of the near one?

Even though he had just returned to Junshan and there were a lot of backlogged major issues that required him to make decisions, Xiao Jing still left without saying a word and set off immediately.In his mind, no matter how big an issue is, it is not as important as Xiao Zhao's safety.

Entrusting all important matters in the gang to Shi Huolong and Zhang Bolongtou, Xiao Jing hurriedly ate lunch and was about to set off.Seeing that Zhao Min was also tidying up very well, looking like he was about to go far away, he couldn't help but said, "I'm here to save people, there may be some danger, you just wait here, I'll be back as soon as I finish saving people."

Zhao Min snorted and said: "If you want to leave me, don't even think about it. Don't worry, you are so powerful in martial arts, are you afraid that you won't be able to protect me? Besides, I'm not the type to let others bully me. Going together can help Did you come up with an idea! Or do you just want to distract me, lest I disturb you and my little lover?"

Xiao Jing was speechless. Thinking about it, it would be okay to let her accompany her. With her martial arts and intelligence, she was enough to protect herself. Moreover, he didn't think that a badly injured Daoist could hurt Zhao Min right under his nose. agree to come down.

Zhao Min nodded in satisfaction, equipped with a long sword, and followed behind him.

Xiao Jing asked Yang Yaoqin to sit in Junshan on his behalf. If the beggar gang has any enemies that cannot be solved, please ask her to help out.Yang Yaoqin has nothing to do, anyway, she has nothing to do, so she looks at the scenery every day in Junshan.

Xiao Jing and the two left Dongting Lake in a small boat, and there were already gang members waiting at the ferry with Chi Huo.Xiao Jing didn't see Chi Huo for a while, so he stepped forward and stroked the horse's head, and the horse rubbed its head against him very intelligently.

Zhao Min's eyes brightened immediately when he saw this fiery red tall horse.She learned the way of riding and archery since she was a child, and she often rides horses and gallops. She has a natural love for BMW.What's more, this horse was given to Xiao Jing by her back then. Seeing it again now, I feel very close.

It's a pity that no matter how intelligent Chihuo is, he's just a beast. After so many years, he has long since forgotten his former master to Java.Moreover, it is loyal and violent by nature, and is extremely vigilant against the approach of strangers. When Zhao Min happily stepped forward to stroke the mane, he was kicked by it with a loud snort, and Xiao Jing had a good meal to appease him before slowly accepting Zhao Min's love. near.

Zhao Min hated his teeth itching, thinking that the horse carried Xiao Jing and Zhou Zhiruo leisurely for a few months, and he didn't seem to have any temper with that little girl. As its former owner, now He didn't even let himself touch it, and he felt uneasy for a while.He reprimanded: "Good bastard, you have the same virtue as your heartless master. They are both people who like the new and dislike the old."

Xiao Jing lay on the gun innocently, and protested: "Don't compare me with a horse. I don't hate the old at all. As for liking the new, it's even more wronged. At most, I have a little appreciation for other beauties. "

Zhao Min sneered and said, "A little bit of appreciation will give you so many sisters and sisters, and you will always work hard for them. You are really a good person who is selfless and dedicated."

Xiao Jing surrendered: "Minmin, I was wrong, I only treat you well now."

Zhao Min said: "Now there are only two of us, who else can you treat well? If you don't say that, you will only treat me well?"

Xiao Jing said: "I just want to be good to you for the rest of my life, and I'm afraid you won't agree."

Zhao Minqi said: "You mean that you are a flirtatious person and want three wives and four concubines, so I will support you, right?"

Xiao Jing waved back the gang, hugged Zhao Min from behind, and whispered in her ear: "When we have children in the future, I don't care about them. I will only show courteousness to you every day, so that they have mothers and no fathers." Tube."

Zhao Min quickly took a sip, and said: "What nonsense are you talking about? Hmph, don't talk about it, you know what I mean, if I don't go with you this time, I'm afraid I'll wait for you and Xiao Zhao When you come back, you even have a child, do you think I killed you, a heartless person with a sword, or do you smile and wish you two happiness?"

Xiao Jing said: "You are just thinking wildly, there is nothing between Xiao Zhao and I, we just treat her as a younger sister, it's not as complicated as you think."

Zhao Min said noncommittally: "I hope it's not Qingmeimei. Anyway, everyone you call is sister and sister. Didn't Zhou Zhiruo also call you brother? Do you dare to say that you are innocent with him?"

Xiao Jing stopped talking immediately, Zhao Min was eloquent, he asked himself that he was not an opponent.Moreover, this question became darker and darker, and it was not appropriate to discuss it in depth, otherwise even he himself would doubt his own character.

Seeing that he was speechless, Zhao Min said that he was guilty and angry, turned around and patted the horse's head, and said: "Do you know why this horse only sees newcomers laughing, but doesn't hear old ones cry?"

Seeing that Zhao Min's tone was not friendly, Xiao Jing thought for a while and said cautiously: "It's probably because its memory is too bad! I heard that the wisdom of a horse is only equivalent to that of a six or seven-year-old child. What do you think such a young child can understand?" thing?"

Zhao Min said: "Wrong! It is not kind to me because I was too kind to it in the past, and I didn't leave a deep enough impression on it. Do you know that some horses are too violent, how to tame them?"

Xiao Jing said: "It's nothing more than getting closer, taming slowly, or directly overlord."

Zhao Min raised his head and said: "These two tricks are not effective for all horses. There is also a wild horse that is not familiar with life and death. The only way is to beat it hard. It will be afraid of you and dare not resist you. Naturally, I can ride it. I took good care of this Chihuo back then, and I was never willing to whip it. I didn’t expect that I would completely forget me after seeing it for a few years. If I beat it every day back then, it would be ashamed to see me now. Bend down obediently."

Xiao Jing pretended to be surprised and said, "There is such a saying?"

Zhao Min said: "That's right. In fact, it's not just the horse, this man is the same. You treat him too well, and he pushes his nose and face. He feels that you will forgive and tolerate everything he does. If you are strict with him one day Yes, he will immediately feel that you are vicious. If you are cruel enough to him at the beginning, he will be grateful for a little smile in the later stage. Don’t you think so, my Chief Xiao?”

Xiao Jing heard her eccentric tone, amused in her heart, and replied: "You are absolutely right. Old Master Confucius once said that only women and villains are difficult to raise. If they are close, they will not be inferior, and if they are far away, they will complain. Minmin The sharpness of the analysis shows that the comprehension is extraordinary”

Zhao Min said angrily: "Okay, you think I'm difficult to get along with, don't you? Then go find your sister Zhou, who is gentle and reserved, beautiful and intelligent, probably a model of a good wife and mother, and won't care about you being blind outside. Damn, isn't this exactly what you want?"

Xiao Jing thought that she was not much better than you, and replied: "This is what the master said, if you want to blame it, you can blame the old man! And didn't you agree with this statement just now? Flip?"

Zhao Min snorted; "You know what I mean. If I had known this, I would whip and train people and horses every day. Maybe today I would gain an obedient boy instead of a hated person who only pissed me off."

Xiao Jing couldn't help but said: "That's not always true, maybe the horse will be killed by hitting, and nothing will be gained in the end."

Zhao Min playfully said: "If you die, you will die. Anyway, there are so many BMWs in the world, just find another one."

Seeing her naughty, Xiao Jing laughed loudly, stepped forward and hugged her honestly, and said with a smile: "You can find a horse at will, but I only have this one for my husband. There is no semicolon. If you are killed, you are not allowed to be a widow?"

After he finished speaking, he got on his horse, and under Zhao Min's exclamation, he held her tightly in his arms, galloped away, and rolled up dust on the ground.

The red rabbit horse is an unparalleled horse in the world. It is not only fast, but also has a long endurance. Even with two people on its back, it still runs like flying through the clouds and fog. It takes five or six days to arrive after thousands of miles.

When he arrived at the beach, Xiao Jing summoned a Beggar Sect disciple to ask him in detail. The Beggar Sect disciple was in awe of him, but when asked, he would explain everything in detail.

Xiao Jing pondered: "You mean, they went out to sea for half a day, and then turned to the east?"

The disciple replied: "According to the inquiries of the brothers, the grandfather and grandson went out to sea for half a day, and indeed they diverted to go east."

Xiao Jing pondered secretly, this Taoist with a lot of damage presumably realized that his whereabouts were exposed, so he used some tricks to deliberately go around, making it impossible for people to know which direction he went.Now it is indeed a bit difficult, the sea is so big, and the exact location cannot be determined, he randomly finds a small island to hide, trying to find it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Seeing that Xiao Jing was in trouble, Zhao Min smiled slightly, pulled him out, and then went all the way into the county government office, took out the gold medal from the Ruyang Prince's Mansion, the little county magistrate seemed to meet his own father, and waited on him attentively. with.

Zhao Min ordered the county magistrate to bring the information of the boatman and helmsman on the Baishang Taoist's boat that day. After some investigation and analysis, she came to the conclusion that the Baishang Taoist did use real and fake tricks to confuse the enemy. The boatmen and helmsmen are basically people who make a living on the local sea, and there is not even a single person who has crossed the sea and been to the East China Sea.Even if he wanted to go to the East China Sea, no one knew the direction.

Xiao Jing admired Zhao Min's ingenuity, he could think of an effective method in just a moment, but it is really not easy to see through the methods of a Taoist who has been damaged by just using clues.

Zhao Min also ordered the county magistrate to bring the map of the nearby sea area, and invited many old people and merchants who were very familiar with the nearby sea to come and inquire about the locations of the nearby small islands and the situation on the islands.

The sea near this place is naturally indispensable for those who are fishing and trading in the sea, and they have already figured out the situation in the nearby sea area. At this time, if the nobleman asks, how dare they hesitate?One by one scrambled to tell what they knew one by one, lest they speak slowly, the nobleman would be unhappy, and the family members would be affected.

After tossing and tossing for a long time, Xiao Jing and Zhao Min finally figured out the situation near the sea.According to the situation on the island, the two analyzed carefully, and finally came to the conclusion that the three most likely places are where Taoist Baishang is hiding.

Zhao Min ordered the county magistrate to quickly prepare the strongest sea ship with helmsman, sailors, food, clear water, weapons, and cold clothes on board.King Ruyang's gold medals are everywhere, how dare the little county magistrate disobey his orders and be cautious?Zhao Min and Xiao Jing drank and waited in the county yamen.Within a day, the county official reported that everything was done.

When the two went to the beach to watch the boat, Xiao Jing couldn't help being dumbfounded and amazed.It turned out that the ship moored by the sea was very large, two stories high, and equipped with iron guns on the bow deck, port and starboard sides, but it was a gunboat of the Mongolian Navy.

Back then when the Mongolian army went on an expedition to Japan, they gathered a large number of boats. Unexpectedly, a hurricane smashed the Mongolian navy, and the Eastern Expedition came to naught. However, the size of the boats has remained since then.In order to curry favor with Zhao Min, the county magistrate went to borrow a gunboat from the navy.

Zhao Min didn't take it seriously, and pulled Xiao Jing onto the boat, and then gave an order, and all the sailors yelled, and the boat set sail and headed for the destination they guessed.

In the boundless sea, a lonely boat was sailing towards the south, Xiao Jing and Zhao Min stayed in the cabin.After sailing for two days, I suddenly heard a shout coming from outside, and then a sailor came down to report: "Land has been seen ahead."

Xiao Jing and Zhao Min walked out to have a look, only to see a large island with lush trees several miles away, with strange peaks on the island, and several high mountains towering over it.

The boat was fed up with the wind and sailed straight ahead.It took only one meal to reach the island.Xiao Jing took Zhao Min's hand, went down the side of the boat, and told all the sailors to wait on the boat.

Falling down on the island, Xiao Jing opened his eyes and ears to investigate carefully.After walking for half a mile, he got nothing, and just when he was thinking that maybe the Baishang Taoist was not on this island, a bright red streak suddenly pierced his eyes.

Xiao Jing was shocked and turned pale, hurriedly walked a few steps and took a closer look, only to see another big pool of dark red blood on the ground, the blood had dried up, obviously it had been some days.

There was a bang in Xiao Jing's mind, and there was a moment of blankness, feeling that Xiao Zhao was so bad that he would hurt the Taoist's poisonous hands.

Zhao Min also saw the pool of blood, but she had a normal relationship with Xiao Zhao and didn't care much about her life, so she remained calm.Seeing that Xiao Jing's face was gloomy, she seemed to be unable to accept the facts, so she hurriedly persuaded: "It's not necessarily that something happened to Xiao Zhao, it may be the blood of some passing merchants, or the sailors, boatmen and others who were taken away by the Taoist priest .”

Xiao Jing reluctantly nodded, and continued to walk forward without saying a word. Along the way, there were more and more bloodstains. After a while, he came to a mountain depression, and there were five or six corpses lying on it in disorder. They were all dressed as boatmen, and they had been dead for a long time at this time.

Xiao Jing took a closer look and found that Xiao Zhao was not inside, so she immediately felt relieved.These boatmen must have been brought by the Taoist Baishang, but he didn't expect him to kill him. Presumably, the Taoist Baishang was afraid that these people would reveal his travel treasures.

Xiao Jing searched the island carefully again, but did not see Taoist Baishang and Xiao Zhao, as if they had already left.

Zhao Min suddenly said: "It seems something is wrong."

Xiao Jing said: "You say."

Zhao Min said: "The blood flowed all the way here, which means that someone passed by this road after being injured. But those boatmen are just ordinary people, and Taoist priests can kill with a flick of their fingers. What kind of crowd is there?"

Xiao Jing's face was sombre, his eyes were full of power, and he searched carefully. Suddenly, he was attracted by a piece of white robe.He took a few steps forward, picked up the robe, and saw that the white robe was only as big as a palm, and seemed to be torn from the corner of the robe.

The white robe itself is of extraordinary texture, with black borders trimmed on the pure white robe, and the shape of a soaring flame is impressively embroidered on the corner of the robe.
