The old fisherman also nodded: "Miss, this is a good suggestion, my lord, why don't you give me one!"

Li Canghai smiled, stretched out his hand and flicked Di Qing's forehead, and said, "You girl will cause me trouble."

Li Canghai looked around, then looked up at the night sky, and then said: "The stars in the sky and the reflection of the sea reflect each other into brilliance, as if all the stars fell on the sea, I think it's called 'Luoxing Star Island'."

"Luoxing Island, Luoxing Island, what a good name! From now on, this island will be called Luoxing Island, hehe~!" Di Qing muttered a few words, liking the name very much, she immediately clapped her hands and shouted.

Not far from everyone's camp, there is a pile of rocks, and among the rocks is a giant stone two feet high.

With sharp eyes, Di Qing saw the boulder at a glance, and then ran over with her sharp sword in her arms.

Pulling out the sword, Di Qing jumped up, swiping the long sword in her hand from the boulder.

After a while, three big characters like flying dragons and phoenixes appeared on the boulder: Luoxing Island!
Seeing this, everyone clapped their hands and applauded.

No one expected that such a delicate girl like Di Qing would have such high martial arts skills.

She not only jumped up the two-foot-high boulder effortlessly, but also swung a sharp sword and carved words when it fell.

Everyone could see clearly that every stroke on the boulder was clearly engraved. After the three characters were engraved, they just fell to the ground.

Returning the sword into its sheath, Di Qing squinted her eyes at what she had written, and clapped her hands in satisfaction.

At this moment, Li Jinsheng, who was going to hunt in the forest, suddenly rushed out of the forest in extreme embarrassment.

Seeing this, several guards rushed up to meet him, and helped Li Jinsheng who was about to fall to his feet.

Li Canghai hurriedly walked over. He looked at Li Jinsheng and couldn't help frowning: "General Li, why did you come back alone? Where are the others?"

Li Canghai knew that Li Jinsheng took five of his men to hunt before, but now he was the only one back, so there must be an accident.

Sure enough, Li Jinsheng said angrily: "Returning to my lord, the others were all arrested, and only the last one escaped desperately."

"You said they were arrested? Could it be that there are other people on this island? What's going on?" Li Canghai was keenly aware of the key point, and hurriedly asked.

Li Jinsheng nodded resentfully, he gritted his teeth and said: "My lord, the general took people to go hunting, but got lost in the forest. I followed my intuition and walked forward. Not long after, I found a fire in the forest ahead. I thought I had returned to the camp. But when I got closer, I realized that there was a group of Japanese stationed there! The last general knew that the situation was serious, so he wanted to come back and report to the lord, but he never thought that they would find out his whereabouts. Fighting against the Japanese, escaped by chance, but the rest fell into the hands of the Japanese. My lord, hurry up and save them!"

Li Canghai's expression became solemn in an instant. He never expected that there were other people on this island, and they were a group of Japanese.

"How many people are there in that group of Japanese? What are their abilities?" Li Canghai asked.

Li Jinsheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and said: "There are not many people, about a dozen or so, but all of them are masters. If the last general didn't take advantage of the night and the dense forest, I'm afraid it would be difficult to escape."

With his hands behind his back, Li Canghai fell into deep thought.

Before coming here, he had investigated Li Jinsheng.

This person is proficient in swordsmanship and is good at bow and arrow. He is also a first-class master in the Yangzhou garrison, and it is not a problem to deal with three or five soldiers in the army.

However, it would be a little difficult to deal with people in the Jianghu, but it would not be powerless to resist.

If the other party was an ordinary Japanese, Li Jinsheng would definitely not be in such a mess.

"There are ten or so masters, and they are all Japanese. Could it be that they are the ones who hunted down the envoys?" Li Canghai frowned, thinking secretly in his heart.

"My lord, if we delay, I'm afraid my brothers will be in danger for their lives!" Li Jinsheng is a person who values ​​love and righteousness. He looked at Li Canghai who was in deep thought, and couldn't help feeling a little anxious.

Li Canghai suddenly stopped, and said in a deep voice: "Jianning Iron Guards are all staying to protect the prince's safety, and the rest will go with me to rescue him."

"Great! My lord, without further ado, let's go!" Li Jinsheng said excitedly.

At this time, Qi Yunhe came over and said, "My lord, do you want to accompany your lord for a walk?"

Li Canghai looked at Li Yu, who had recovered from the dizziness and had just recovered, shook his head and said, "No need, with Qing'er here, I will be fine, just stay and protect the lord, the lord's safety is at stake It's all up to you."

"Don't worry, my lord, I must be careful and protect the prince!" Qi Yunhe said solemnly.

Li Canghai nodded, then called to Di Qing, who was already gearing up and excited, called the rest of the guards, and followed Li Jinsheng to leave.

The island is not big, but it is not small either.

There is a large area of ​​forests on the island, all of which are ancient trees with intertwined roots, covering the sky and the sun, and the stars cannot be seen even when you look up.

Li Jinsheng led the crowd and walked with difficulty in the forest. After walking for about half an hour, they found a camp.

The distance between this camp and their camp was five or six miles in a straight line. If they were traveling along the coast, it would be more than ten miles at least. No wonder they didn't find it.

At this time, the bonfire was raging in the camp, but no one was seen.

Li Jinsheng was worried about the safety of those guards, so he wanted to rush out, but was held back by Li Canghai.

"There is deceit here, don't act rashly." Li Canghai said in a low voice.

"But my lord, my brothers..." Li Jinsheng was a little impatient.

Di Qing glared at him, and said, "Are you stupid? Just now you said that there were more than ten of them, but now there is no one in the camp. Can't you see the problem?"

Only then did Li Jinsheng come to his senses. He patted his head, nodded repeatedly, and asked, "My lord, what should I do?"

Li Canghai thought for a while and said, "You guys wait for me here, and I'll go check it out. If there's an ambush, it's not too late for you guys to come out."

"My lord, you must not do it! If you are in danger, how will you explain to the county sheriff?" Li Jinsheng said anxiously.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine." After thinking for a while, Li Canghai said to Li Jinsheng: "Later, you order people to prepare more torches. After hearing my order, light all the torches and hold them in the forest. walking back and forth."

Li Jinsheng was stunned for a moment. He scratched his head and said puzzledly, "My lord, why is this?"

The corners of Li Canghai's mouth rose slightly, and he said with a mysterious smile, "Of course he sang an empty city plan."

After explaining, Li Canghai took Di Qing, the two went around to the other side, and walked out in a big way.

Di Qing followed closely behind Li Canghai, carefully observing her surroundings. She had her long sword in front of her, ready to draw it at any time.
