Dao fruit.

The chasing soldiers in the ancient horoscope refers to the group of people who are chasing them closely along the way.

"This group of people seems to be well-organized and law-abiding, and they are all-pervasive in terms of intelligence. No matter what methods we use to hide or cut off the detection, the other party can be found again. Now after going to sea, due to the impact of the storm, the other party is temporarily invisible, but If you want to live for some time, you will definitely encounter it.”

When the ancient horoscope spoke, his brows were frowned, as if he was thinking about something.

Gongyu Changjian on the side shook his head and said: "It's not necessarily true. Those people may have lived in the scholar forest, but they have never entered the forest with great auspiciousness, mostly to discuss Taoism, and many academies are in the scholar forest. In fact, there are also their own strongholds, not without foundation, only Zhixing Academy is newly opened, and it is not unthinkable that some unexpected things will happen."

Just when the eight-character ancient seal character thought that Gong Yu's swordsmanship was just deliberately contradicting himself, Gong Yu said again: "However, it cannot be ruled out that there have been changes in Shilin. Fortunately, there are such a group of people chasing after them. On the contrary, several of Qiu Yan's disciples were forced to devote themselves wholeheartedly to cope with the many changes along the way. The progress was not small, and they gained a lot in the scholar forest. It can be said that it was a blessing in disguise. gone."

These words, even the ancient Chinese characters have to admit: "That's right, originally Qiu Yan asked us to come here with the intention of protecting these boys, so that they will have confidence in their hearts and have nothing to worry about, so they will inevitably relax and get what they don't deserve Harvesting, but we can't let these boys do things, after all, they are the foundational seeds of Zhixing Academy, and there is no room for loss. Now that there are so many people chasing after them, it has helped us a lot."

Gongyu said again: "With their current ambitions, even if we go to Beijuzhou as soon as possible, we should be able to survive. It just so happened that Qiu Miao also found the trace, and when the location is confirmed, it is time to go. The remaining days are the last protection time."

Hearing this, the ancient Chinese character horoscope frowned: "But once we leave, there will inevitably be casualties..." When he was speaking, he turned his head and glanced at the corner of the deck. "I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain to Qiu Yan in the end."

"It doesn't matter." Gongyu waved his hand, "You guys definitely don't want to get hurt because of the mystery, but in my opinion, a little loss is not necessarily a bad thing, but it can polish your temper and strengthen your heart. Besides, at that time , it should be time for them to leave Shilin and return to Darui."

Hearing this, the eight-character ancient seal frowned more and more tightly, and wanted to tell the difference, but Gong Yu didn't give the other party time to speak at all.I heard him continue: "Actually, before we go to Beijuzhou, there is one more thing we can do, which is to investigate clearly. What is the origin of the people who chased and killed Meng Sanyi and others in the Shilin? In order to hone them. We refrained from making a move, but if the opponent really chased them into the sea, then there is no reason to let them go. These people are walking freely in the scholar forest, and there must be something hidden behind them."

As soon as the words fell, Wu Meng, who was investigating on the watchtower, said: "There is a boat ahead!"

"Oh? There is a boat, are those people chasing it?" Hearing this sound, the ancient seal characters of eight characters and others also paid attention. Expand out, so it cannot be distinguished from a distance.

But then, Wu Meng said in surprise: "What a big boat! It doesn't seem to be chasing soldiers. The people on it are waving flags, but we don't know each other. Scholar, come up and have a look."

The scholar Wu Meng was talking about was precisely Sun Xun, the son of the Sun family, he was very knowledgeable and knowledgeable about semaphore, and at the same time as the words fell, Wu Meng turned around like a weight. He fell in the air, but when he landed, it didn't bring much impact, and he didn't even hear the sound of the impact. Then he bounced up, swayed, and arrived in front of Sun Xun. Before the other party could react, he raised his hand and shook it. He threw the person up and landed firmly on the table.

Sun Xun's complexion changed at first, but he calmed down quickly, and instead of complaining, he watched from a distance, and saw a huge ship slowly swimming not far away, with a flying flag on it, sending out a message.

After understanding, he heard him say: "The visitor is not a pursuer, it should be a part of a certain fleet. The other party is asking us to approach. The two sides cancel the following and understand the situation in the surrounding sea area."

"It's not chasing soldiers? Why do you know that?" Wu Meng seemed to have a different opinion, "How do you know that the other party is not pretending to use treachery to win me?"

Sun Xun said: "Judging from the previous behavior of those people, they are not the ones who can use this method. Besides, the boat ahead is too huge, and the speed is not slow. Even if I ignore it, it will eventually converge. , it is better to take the initiative to step forward and understand the situation."

"I'm afraid that those who come will be unkind." Another voice came out. This person was one of the few Confucian scholars who accompanied him this time. He was one of the few people in the Academy of Knowledge and Practice who understood the essence of knowledge and practice. His name was Zhang Yang, and he was a child of a poor family. , was quite low-key along the way, hardly saying a word, but as a few people got acquainted, they were no longer silent, and when the storm hit before, except for Meng Sanyi and other three Qiu Yan disciples, Everyone else was more or less affected, but there was no difference between the two, and Zhang Yang was one of them.

"Whether the visitor is good or not, we need to get in touch." Meng Sanyi came out at this moment, "Actually, after this period of experience, you should have noticed that this Shilin world is different from the outside world. From the outside world, I can't wait." If you practice martial arts and don't know how to fight on the battlefield, once you meet someone who is capable and has malicious intentions, you will be formidable. However, it is different among scholars. As long as you have profound knowledge and firm will, even if you are trapped, you will still be able to escape. Now that the huge ship is coming, as long as it is arranged in advance and the way back is prepared, it may not be an opportunity to learn about Shilin."

Among these people, Meng Sanyi still ranks in the forefront according to the order of entry into the ranks, but when he speaks, he doesn't have much style of a senior brother, and he looks like a kind person. His temperament is easy and difficult to change, but it is also easy to get close to.

"That's right," Sun Xun also slowly climbed down the mast at this time, and came to the crowd, "I have heard people talk about the teacher before, and they all say that the teacher moves with a plan, and his hands are continuous. Being well prepared is the embodiment of the way of knowing and doing. Now that I have entered the shilin, it is for the purpose of honing my knowledge and doing. Besides, I have experienced all kinds of things and my mind is set. I don’t need to be afraid of others. Even without the support of these few people, I may not be train of thought."

As soon as he said this, the others thought about it and nodded.

As for Gongyu Jianfa and others, they were watching quietly. They were only ordered by Qiu Yan to help the leader at critical moments, and they would not interfere too much at ordinary times. After several crises, Meng Sanyi and others generally agreed I understand what these people mean, and I know that I have to rely more on my own strength in order to gain something. If I rely on the last layer of protection to act recklessly and don't pay attention to the changes in Shilin, I will only get nothing in the end and waste a time entering the forest. Opportunity.

The number of times to enter the forest is limited in one person's life, how can these people dare to waste it?

So, after the discussion was over, they also set the tone, waiting for the arrival of the big ship——

At this time, the huge ship was not far from the three-masted sailboat that Meng Sanyi and the others were riding on. You didn't need to go up to look far, you could see the huge ship that was approaching on the line between the sea and the sky.

But as time went by and the distance shortened, the ship became clearer, and some of the scenes on it became clearer, which made Meng Sanyi and others intuitively experience the size of the ship!

The few people whose faces were pale because of resisting the storm couldn't help but exclaimed.

"How big is this boat! I'm afraid it will be as big as a small town on the edge of Darui Mansion City, or even half a county town!"

"How does such a big ship sail? Could it also be a sail? No, I didn't see canvas on the ship!"

"I'm afraid there is something else hidden? Huh? This ship looks magnificent and majestic at first glance. After getting closer, you can see that the top seems to be riddled with holes, and one side is faintly about to break. Many of the ship's planks have peeled off. Could it be Invaded by sea wind and waves? If so, it would have been torn apart long ago, how can we sail on this sea."

Several people discussed, the words in the words are also the thoughts and doubts of Meng Sanyi and others. Compared with this ship, their ship is nothing, it looks small, but it is better than the strictness, one nail and one rivet, one piece of wood They are all in their respective positions, and there is no chaos. In contrast, the giant ship looks majestic at first glance, but when you look closely, you can notice many cracks on it, with an ancient atmosphere, and I don't know how long it has been sailing.

"How many people are new to the sea?"

Just when everyone was wondering, a voice came from the top of the giant ship.

Following the sound, the target was a middle-aged man in his forties, dressed in dark clothes, with a dignified face, looking at several people, smiling.

"How? Would you like to come to my Gudan boat to have a look? Maybe we can help each other and learn to sail in the boundless sea."

"Boundless sea of ​​learning?"

The speaker was interested in the listener, and Meng Sanyi and others noticed the key point at once, and then Sun Xun asked: "This brother, I haven't asked the daimyo for advice, and it seems that the boundless learning sea is not easy. In other words, I just came to the sea from land not long ago, and I am planning to find time to go back.”

"I can't go back, I can't go back." Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man shook his head, "When you came, did you encounter a storm not long after you entered the sea? Get through? After this storm passes, you will be the soul of the sea, and you will never go back to land." (To be continued...)
