Chapter 174: Floating
Chapter 174 Floating Light
Shen Mingjiao asked: "How far is it from here to Peach Blossom Island?"
Mi Yue glanced at the sea surface: "If we rely on this small boat alone, it will take two or three hours at the earliest."
Shen Mingjiao pondered: "When Ryan returns and finds that his things are gone, coupled with the riots tonight, he must have recollected it. When he gets angry, he will probably kill Peach Blossom Island directly, although there is Yingsu , but his body is like that, so you have to go back,"
"As far as I'm concerned, you go back alone first. You travel fast and know the way. If you don't take us with you, you should be able to return to Peach Blossom Island soon, right?"
Miyue nodded: "I know a shortcut, it's in a shoal east of this island, when the time comes, I'll swim directly there."
After all, she has lived here since she was a child, and no one is more familiar with the surrounding terrain than her.
Shen Mingjiao was surprised: "Swim over?"
Miyue pointed to the sky: "Don't worry, I've seen it. There won't be huge waves in this area tonight."
For her, as long as she doesn’t encounter huge waves, it’s fine.
"But you, don't rush back. There is a small island not far to the east. You can go to that island to rest first, and it will not be too late to go back after dawn."
Shen Mingjiao nodded: "That's fine."
The things that should be resolved have been resolved. Without those weapons, even if Ryan and his party kill Peach Blossom Island now, with the fighting power of the women on the island, they are not afraid of anything.
On the contrary, she will only add to the chaos if she goes.
Several people watched Mi Yue leave quickly.
Shen Mingjiao came to the side of the boat and was planning to get on it.
Suddenly there was a surprised shout from behind: "Who are you?"
Shen Mingjiao turned her head to look, and saw a small man with an obscene face turning out from behind a big rock not far away.
Seeing the person coming, Shen Mingjiao raised her heart and pine,
She has the impression that this person is the dog leg of Yamamoto Kichirei. What is it called Hachiro Izawa?
Hachiro Izawa looked at the people in front of him, with greed in his eyes,
"I heard what you just said...", the word "了" has not yet fallen.
Seeing Shen Mingjiao approaching him step by step, he unconsciously met those beautiful eyes, his face became stiff for a moment, his opened lips froze abruptly,
Shen Mingjiao withdrew her gaze, took Feng Shuo's dagger and killed him neatly. Then moved a big stone together with the girl.
She found a hemp rope from the boat, and tied the stone to the man with great effort. After tying the last knot, the three of them pushed the body into the sea together.
If this person's body is left on the shore, in case someone passes by and sees it, it will be bad for them after all.
Shen Mingjiao and the others had never done such a thing. Not long after the body was thrown into the sea, the knot that tied the stone loosened slightly, and the stone fell to the bottom of the sea. The corpse floated gently on the surface of the sea along the wind and waves, with a knotted hemp rope loosely wrapped around its neck.
The three of Shen Mingjiao boarded the boat, and Shen Mingjiao slid the oars forward, but with her physical strength, although she felt that she had improved a lot after a few days of exercise, she was still out of breath after half a cup of tea.
The girl had been watching quietly, and seeing that Shen Mingjiao's forehead was sweating, she said, "Let me do it!"
Shen Mingjiao thought she was good at this. You're welcome. He stood up and gave her his seat.
The girl held the oar, recalling Shen Mingjiao's actions just now, and slowly slid the oar.
Because it was the first time to do it, the boat bumped heavily.
Shen Mingjiao: "...so you don't know how to do it!"
After finishing speaking, he went over to take the oars.
The girl shook her head at her, and said in a daze: "Your physical strength can't keep up, I will learn it soon." At the end, she emphasized: "You can teach me."
When she said this, her expression was still blank. It was obvious that what she said was just stating the facts and had no other meaning.
Shen Mingjiao was very depressed when she heard it, and secretly decided to exercise her physical strength after returning home.
Shen Mingjiao stopped arguing with her, and began to guide her movements.
The girl learned much faster than her, and she looked good in no time.
Feng Shuo, who was sitting quietly on one side, yawned chaotically, but he forced himself to keep his eyes open and looked at the sea.
Seeing Shen Mingjiao, she couldn't help but go over and drag him into the cabin:
"What can you do at a young age? If you don't sleep well, you won't grow taller. What if you don't grow taller and you can't marry a wife?"
Feng Shuo let her pull him with a blank expression, apparently not caring about whether he could grow taller!
But she obediently entered the cabin, Shen Mingjiao took off her cloak and spread it on the floor.
After the little guy was settled, Shen Mingjiao returned to the side of the boat, a little bored for a while, she asked the girl:
"I don't know what to call the girl?"
The girl shook her head blankly: "I don't have a name."
Shen Mingjiao raised her eyebrows in surprise: "Are you... amnesia?"
After the matter of the Tibetan poem lock and her casual behavior, it can be seen that this girl should have an unusual status in the past.
Thinking of this, she instantly made up a lot of **** plots.
The girl still shook her head: "I don't know, everyone says I'm a sin slave. My brain always hurts badly at first."
Shen Mingjiao nodded again and again, "You probably lost a million dollars and didn't run away."
The girl said "Oh", but she didn't feel much.
Shen Mingjiao asked: "Then what are your future plans? I think you should be from Dayue. If I can leave here, I can ask my husband to help you find out about your family."
The girl looked at her straight: "If you want to leave, can you take me with you?"
At this time, a gust of wind blew head-on, blowing up the girl's messy blond hair that covered half of her face, revealing her pair of azure blue eyes like jewels.
Shen Mingjiao couldn't help but marvel: "Your eyes are so beautiful! But they are quite similar to my husband's eyes."
She didn't think much about it, after all, she didn't see many people in Da Yue.
But this girl's eyes are really beautiful, facing the moonlight, like bright and clear gems, making the scars on her face not so scary.
Shen Mingjiao became even more curious about this girl: "You can't do without a name, and it will be troublesome to call you in the future. How about I help you choose a name?"
The girl's beautiful blue eyes moved, obviously looking forward to it.
Shen Mingjiao thought about it, she's actually not very good at picking names, didn't she change the names of the two servant girls around her?
When we named Begonia at the beginning, it happened that the Begonia flowers in the courtyard were blooming.
She raised her eyes and looked around. As far as she could see, the sea was rippling. Looking up again, the moon is hanging high, and the night sky is full of stars.
She pointed to the round moon: "Wang Shu?"
After speaking, he shook his head: "It's not good, it doesn't feel very compatible."
She pointed to the sky full of stars again: "Then it's called Xinghan, Xingchen, Tianhe...it doesn't feel good..."
She scratched her hair irritably, thinking that she really is a waste of names.
The girl suddenly said: "I like the sun."
Shen Mingjiao blinked: "The sun... Chaoyang! No, there was a princess named Chaoyang during the first emperor's time."
Thinking of something, her eyes lit up: "How about floating light? Floating light!"
The more she thinks about it, the more she thinks the name is good.
The girl read it back and forth twice between her lips and teeth, and seemed to feel that the recitation was smooth, so she also smiled with satisfaction.
The boat is slowly drifting on the sea surface. From a distance, only a tiny point can be seen, and behind this point, a large ship seems to appear faintly.
The two of them took turns to support the boat, and Shen Mingjiao quickly saw the small island that Mi Yue mentioned, and it was a real small island. The area is only half the size of a village.
Anyway, she was not in a hurry to go back, so Shen Mingjiao simply stayed on the shore.
Shen Mingjiao jumped off the deck, stretched comfortably,
Fuguang took off his cloth shoes, and stepped on the beach with bare feet. There was a bright smile on the face with vertical and horizontal scars.
Seeing Shen Mingjiao, she followed her example and took off her shoes, feeling the soft sand brushing against her feet, not to mention, it was quite comfortable.
The two played for a while, and Shen Mingjiao simply lay on the beach with her head on her pillow, starry sky as far as she could see, and then she listened to the rustling sound of the waves hitting the rocks. It's just indescribably comfortable,
Shen Mingjiao suddenly felt that if Ryan and his party didn't spoil the fun, it would actually be good to live here for the rest of their lives.
Thinking of this, Feng Lisheng's face suddenly appeared in her mind. I don't know how he is doing now? He should come to find himself!
For a moment, she thought that if she couldn't get out for the rest of her life, the two of them would never meet again. Just thinking about this possibility made her feel so uncomfortable that she couldn't breathe.
Looking at the sky full of stars again, I suddenly felt that it was not beautiful at all, and even the sound of the waves hitting the rocks was a bit noisy.
Sure enough, women, especially women in love, are so fickle!
…
On a sea not far from here, an official ship with the logo of the Great Xia Kingdom floated slowly on the sea.
On the deck, a tall and straight young man looked up at the pitch-black sky, his bright blue eyes were out of focus, apparently just in a daze unconsciously. And at his feet, there was a little snow-white silver fox obediently.
The captain stepped forward cautiously: "Your Highness, it's time for you to rest,"
Feng Lisheng acted as if he had never heard of it, half a month had passed since Shen Mingjiao disappeared in this sea area.
Half a month is enough to accomplish many things. But he searched almost all the small islands along the way, but he didn't find any sign of Shen Mingjiao.
Seeing him like this, the captain stopped persuading him, and just sighed leisurely.
As the days passed, he and everyone on board watched His Highness's eyes become more indifferent and his back more and more gloomy.
Sometimes they are really worried that when they wake up one morning, His Royal Highness King Su will directly become a fairy.
Feng Lisheng picked up the binoculars mechanically, and he could vaguely see a small island in his sight.
Feng Lisheng estimated the approximate direction and asked the captain to change the course.
But at this moment, the moving ship seemed to hit something, and the sailor went down to have a look, and found that it was a dead body.
The sailor cursed bad luck, and was about to break it away,
The little silver fox, who was taking a leisurely nap, moved its nose, then straightened up abruptly, waving its little paws in the direction of the sailor.
Feng Lisheng lowered his head when he heard the commotion. Seeing this, his heart skipped a beat, and he glanced at the unidentified corpse. With quivering lips he let the sailor put it on the splint.
After seeing the appearance of the corpse clearly, he heaved a sigh of relief.
It was a short man, and he should have died within an hour based on his appearance.
Suddenly, he saw the hemp rope around the corpse's neck, and his eyes froze.
