Dragon Warrior

Chapter 131 The Emperor's Secret Order
The night was as thick as ink, and Xiao Jing sailed through the vast sea in a large sailboat.

The sailors on the boat are all elite members of the beggar gang who are at the helm, and all of them have strong water skills and are also very skilled in sailing skills.

Xiao Jing waited quietly in the cabin, Zhao Min accompanied him.Others were sent outside by him.

After about an hour, the helmsman Shi Feng came to report that he was approaching the Persian fleet, and if he continued to sail, he might be noticed by the other party.

Xiao Jing immediately ordered to stop.He knew that the Persians were all on warships, and the boats were loaded with a lot of artillery. The wooden boat they were on was probably going to be sunk in the blink of an eye.

After the big boat stopped, Xiao Jing untied a small boat tied to the big boat, and was about to jump on it, but Zhao Min grabbed the corner of his clothes.

Xiao Jing turned around and said softly: "Don't make trouble, this trip is dangerous, you must not follow, if something goes wrong, I will suffer for the rest of my life."

Zhao Min pursed his lips and said, "Since you know that this trip is dangerous, why don't you go? Don't people feel pain if something happens to you?"

Xiao Jing said: "Don't worry, even if there is danger, if I want to leave, no one can stop me."

Zhao Min said: "The Persian Mingjiao is powerful, why can't you wait for a few more days, after gathering the Mingjiao people, everyone will take action together, naturally there is nothing wrong with it."

Xiao Jing said: "If Xiao Zhao really falls into their hands, every time she waits, she will be in more danger. Now that the two sides are so close together, I must go find out, at least to know whether she is with the Persians or not." ? If so, is it safe?"

Zhao Min said angrily: "Xiao Zhao, Xiao Zhao, you only want to save your Xiao Zhao."

Xiao Jing smiled and said: "You should believe in my ability. As long as I don't want to, no one in this world can take my life. When I come back, I will grow old with you forever, and my children and grandchildren will be full! With such a beautiful woman by my side, no one in this world can kill me. There is no one who is more afraid of death than me."

Zhao Min chuckled, and the slightly sad atmosphere was diluted a lot. She straightened Xiao Jing's clothes and said, "Okay! I know I can't persuade you. Go early and come back early. I'll wait for you."

Xiao Jing patted her hand, jumped straight into the boat without paddling, internal force poured into her feet, and with a slight shock, the boat seemed to be pushed by an invisible big hand, pushing away the sea water all the way, and flew in. into the night.

After about a cup of tea, there was the sound of a big boat paddling the sea ahead.Xiao Jing raised his eyes and saw dozens of large ships faintly appearing in front of his eyes, connected together like a big mountain.The beating sails rattled in the night wind, and the big ship moved in the water like a giant beast swimming, its momentum was very frightening.

Xiao Jing pondered for a while, then directly abandoned the boat and jumped into the water with a whoosh.He grew up in the south, swimming is as simple as eating and drinking for him.Now that he has achieved great martial arts, he can hold his breath for an extremely long time. Once he is in the fetal breath state, he can stay in the water for several hours without breathing.

Xiao Jing's great skill of moving the universe, coupled with his excellent water quality, is even more agile than swimming fish in the water, and he can easily approach the fleet without anyone noticing.

Xiao Jing was not in a hurry, and swam straight towards the big boat in the middle.If Xiao Zhao really fell into their hands, it was most likely on the big ship in the middle.

When he got to the middle of the fleet, Xiao Jing poked his head out and looked through the moonlight, only to see a huge sailing boat three or four zhang away.The boat was one-third bigger than the rest of the boats, with twelve large embroidered flags embroidered on the bow and twelve tiger-skin chairs.

Xiao Jing smiled slightly, thinking that it was it, and immediately jumped onto the boat.He has superb lightness skills and excellent water skills, jumping from the water without any movement, while arousing his internal force, the clothes on his body have already been dried by the internal force before he landed.

There was also a team of Mingjiao believers on duty, but with their abilities and at night, it was naturally impossible to find Xiao Jing's whereabouts.

This warship is huge, more than ten feet long and three stories high.Xiao Jing hid her figure, concentrated her ears, and listened carefully.In a moment, the general situation on the ship has been figured out.

Judging from the degree of breathing, the people living on the first floor should be ordinary congregants, and their breathing is relatively shallow and rapid. Although their martial arts are acceptable, they are not very powerful masters.A total of more than a dozen people lived on the second floor, and 12 of them were not weak in martial arts, obviously much better than the rest.

These 12 people are strong and weak, but even the weakest is a first-class master, and the strongest one is not even inferior to Yang Xiao and others in martial arts.Just thinking about it, Xiao Jing knew that this was the Twelve Twelve Tree Kings of the Persian Ming Cult, and the person with the strongest martial arts should be the Ever Victorious King.

There was only one person living on the third floor, and the breathing rate of that person was quite strange, similar to the Twelve Twelve Tree Kings, but there was also a kind of Taoist martial arts that seemed to be alive and dead.

Xiao Jing was excited, she was almost sure that the person was Xiao Zhao.Immediately spread out his body, sneaked all the way to the third floor without making a sound, saw that there was only one room in this building, but it was decorated with colorful tassels, and the lights in that room were still on at this time.

Xiao Jing walked over slowly and stood in front of the window, just about to observe quietly, when suddenly a beautiful singing sound came from the room.As soon as Xiao Jing heard the singing, a little tenderness filled her heart, and the not-too-distant scenes flooded her mind one after another.

The Yangtze River is rough and the waves are turbulent, and the enemy is powerful and brutal. At that time, his martial arts were not yet great, but he had already shown his glory in the rivers and lakes.He took the teenage girl with him, facing No. 1 of the Green Forest Road in the south of the Yangtze River, still full of pride.

When they were besieged by the enemy in that nameless town, everyone thought they were doomed.That sweet, caring, considerate girl obediently did all the trivial things in life for him, and then said to him: "Since we can't escape, it's useless to worry about it. Let me sing a little song for you, okay?" ?”

Although he has his own plans and is not in the mood to listen to the ditty right now, he still can't bear to flatter her kindness: "Mmm."

The girl's voice is crisp and melodious, as sweet as a lark.The words in the song are open-minded, showing the heart of a person who has experienced hardships and sees through the world. It is not commensurate with the girl's youthfulness. She has heard others sing it, so she remembered it.

He listened to the song, thinking about some people and things in his past and present lives, he was filled with emotion for a while.

Then when the enemy came, he showed his supernatural power and broke through the siege. The leader of the Jiangnan Waterway died under his stick.

The girl who was always gentle and obedient and loved to laugh carefully treated the wound for him, and then hummed this song again.After that, whenever the two met alone, she would always hum this song unknowingly, but she never heard her sing it in front of others.

"At the end of the day, you can't escape that day. Once it is useful, it will be cheap once. A hundred years of time, seventy people are rare. The years are rushing, and the water is flowing."

As thoughts flowed, the singing in the room gradually came to an end, Xiao Jing's heart was turbulent, and the turbulent emotions were hard to contain, so he couldn't help but murmured: "Xiao Zhao..."

"Who?" The woman in the room was very vigilant, and immediately noticed the slightest disturbance, and shouted in a low voice.

Now that Xiao Jing had found Xiao Zhao, a big stone fell from his heart, he stepped forward and gently opened the door, saying: "Xiao Zhao, it's me!"

The girl held the sword in her hand, and was very vigilant towards the person who came in, but when she heard the voice, her head went blank, as if there was a firework in her heart that flew into the sky for a moment, and then exploded in the bottom of her heart with a bang. Open, the long-accumulated grievances, fears, longings, loneliness...all kinds of things have been blown away, leaving only surprises and happiness in my heart.

She felt that there was no moment in her life as satisfying as tonight. She thought that she had lost a person and a relationship forever, but that person suddenly appeared again, and everything she wanted seemed to be within reach...

With a clang, the sword fell to the ground, and Xiao Zhao threw herself into Xiao Jing's arms irresistibly, tears of joy and sweetness dripped down on the Persian carpet like pearls.

Xiao Jing felt the trembling body of the girl in her arms, and a trace of guilt flashed in her heart.To be precise, if it wasn't for him, Taoist Baishang would not have held Xiao Zhao hostage, would not have discovered her special physique, and naturally would not have had everything that followed.

He gently patted Xiao Zhao's back to comfort him.After a long time, Xiao Zhao's mood gradually calmed down, but he still did not leave his embrace.She said, "Are you here to save me?"

Xiao Jing said: "Yes, I am here to save you. I have been looking for you for a long time, why are you so stupid, you would rather bear it alone than tell me."

Xiao Zhao said: "Xiao Zhao is also very contradictory? I don't want to bring you trouble or put you in danger. But every moment I fantasize about you falling from the sky and taking me away. Today's scene, Xiao Zhao once I've fantasized about it countless times."

Xiao Jing said: "Don't be afraid, I will take you away later."

Xiao Zhao hummed, suddenly remembered something, her face turned pale, she said: "Do you know about my mother? She was manipulated by Taoist Baishang. After so long, I'm afraid..."

Xiao Jing said: "Don't worry, I have received the news that your mother was rescued by Zhang Wuji, and now she is with people from Mingjiao!"

Xiao Zhao said pleasantly: "My mother is a member of the Ming Cult, so she should be saved by them."

Xiao Jing remembered something and said, "Xiao Zhao, how did you fall into the hands of the Persians?

Xiao Zhao said: "The Daoist Baishang was injured by you that day. When he came back, he took me to an inaccessible place and didn't let me leave. When he appeared again later, his injuries were even worse, but I was still no match for him. He sealed my martial arts, let him and I pretend to be grandparents, and went all the way south. Then we arrived at a small island."

Xiao Jing said: "I just found out that he brought you to the southern sea, so I tracked you all the way. But he is going to go to that island with all his heart, is there something unusual?"

Xiao Zhao said: "The elder on the island is a kind of fruit. It tastes spicy, but it contains extremely cold air. It can help Taoist Baishang temporarily stabilize his injuries, and it can also make my martial arts improve rapidly. He also forced me to eat that fruit. , and then inject the cold poison into my body, if I don’t work hard to practice the martial arts he passed down, the cold poison will attack, and the pain will be very painful.”

Xiao Jing said, "What is he trying to do by arresting you?"

Xiao Zhao said: "Taoist Baishang is concentrating a drop of Xuanming True Water, and it is said that after success, his power will increase greatly. He asked me to practice his Xuanming Divine Art, and he wants to take away my Xuanming Zhenqi when I penetrate the bridge between heaven and earth And the cold source in his body, help him practice the second drop of real water. It’s just that he was seriously injured last time, and he seems to want to do it in advance, and he plans to do it when I get through the twelve disciplines and become a first-class master.”

Xiao Jing was startled, and said: "I think you are already a first-class master, how did you escape from his control?"

Xiao Zhao said: "He forced me to eat that kind of fruit every day, and then used cold poison to promote my martial arts progress. Although I tried my best to suppress it, but seeing that I was about to become a first-class master, I planned to die, but I didn't expect that day to come I set up a fleet and temporarily repaired it on the island. I recognized them as people from the Persian religion, so I asked them for help."

Xiao Jing said: "Are they so kind?"

Xiao Zhao said: "My mother is one of the three saints of the Persian Ming Cult. She came to Ming Cult to steal the Great Teleportation of the Universe under the order of the head teacher. Once she succeeds, this credit is enough to become the leader. But the leader of the Ming Cult must be a pure virgin. , after my mother gave birth to me, she passed me the seven-color gemstone ring that represents my identity. That day I deliberately exposed the ring in front of them, and then asked for their protection. who jumped into the water and escaped."

Speaking of this, she suddenly remembered something, and said: "I heard a secret from the mouths of the Persian Mingjiao people. It turned out that they were escorts invited by the Supreme Emperor's secret decree. Hua's martial arts is too high, but he has no subordinates who can match him, so in order to deal with Pu Buhua, he sent his idea to a foreign country. He not only invited people from Persian Mingjiao, but also invited a super expert from Dongying Kingdom, It is said that he is the Sword Master of the Sword Pavilion of the Red Mansion."

Xiao Jing frowned and said, "It turned out to be the method of the Emperor of the Tartars. No wonder this group of people came to China for no reason, and went all the way north, never returning. It's just that the Dongying Sword Master, how much do you know?"

Xiao Zhao thought about it: "I heard that Dongying Sword Master is the number one master in the country. He has beaten all the invincible hands in Dongying with a moon-shaped sword. Even the emperor's teacher and the contemporary king of fighters have been defeated by this person's sword. His martial arts are very powerful. However, at least Zhengdi seems to have taken advantage of the power struggle between the emperor and their general who conquered barbarians to let the emperor secretly leave the palace and personally invite this sword master to come out of the Red Mansion Jiange."

Xiao Jing mused to himself, if I remember correctly, Dongying will be in the Southern and Northern Dynasties when Jianwu Zhongxing failed and split into two royal families.This period of time was also the most intense period of open and secret fighting, and there were many opportunities to take advantage of, but the Tartar Emperor picked a good time.

But since the Dongpu Sword Master is the number one master in the country, he shouldn't be bad.Although Dongpu has a small place, it can often produce one or two amazingly talented super masters, so it seems that we have to guard against it.
