The smell of beef jerky suddenly came out from the lotus leaves. Duoduo was so happy that he grabbed a handful and stuffed it into his mouth. While eating, he said: "Ha, it tastes pretty good. I never thought that the saint would be so thoughtful."

, In fact, you are not good at all, and you still use others to make me angry. You are really despicable and shameless."

Nangong Jie also said: "Yeah, I also feel a little sorry for her. I shouldn't take advantage of her."

Duoduo smiled and said, "Be careful of retribution. Empress Nuwa hates men who deceive their feelings the most. Maybe you will hurt me."

As soon as they finished speaking, the large bamboo raft was suddenly thrown high into the sky with a loud crash, and then fell down. The two of them were unprepared, and they all fell onto the bamboo raft.

Fortunately, the bamboo raft was extremely strong and there was no danger of disintegration. Unfortunately, the package of beef jerky had fallen into the water and soaked.

"How could this happen?" Nangong Jie asked strangely.

Duoduo listened carefully and felt a chill in his heart, saying: "What a tragedy, we have drifted out to sea!"

"Going to the sea? What should I do?" Nangong Jie had never been to the sea before, and had never seen the sea at all. He only felt that the bamboo raft was shaking very hard, and the waves would hit the bamboo raft.

Duoduo's scalp was numb and he said: "There is nothing to do. We have to leave it to fate. Maybe we will die in the sea and feed the sharks."

The sea breeze blew in waves, and Nangong Jie couldn't help but tremble all over. This sea breeze was obviously much colder.

Duoduo suddenly broke the rope, lowered the sail and said: "Lower this thing, we won't float so fast! Husband, come help, pull out the pole, wrap the sail around it, and paddle back

go."

"Oh, okay!" Nangong Jie now had no idea at all and was completely following Duoduo's command.

"But my wife, it's dark now and I can't see the direction at all. Which is the shore?"

"Here I come!" Duoduo sat down, looked up at the sky and said, "Have you seen the stars arranged in a spoon shape? The brightest one is called Polaris. We just floated down in the direction it pointed. As long as

If you paddle in reverse, you can find the coast from the mouth of the river."

"Oh...huh? Look, honey, there is a light!" Nangong Jie pointed to a light not far away and shouted, "It's a fishing boat! We are saved. The presence of a fishing boat means that we are not far out to sea!" Duoduo made his hands like trumpets,

He shouted towards the light: "Hey, is there anyone? Help! Someone, help!"

Soon, the light became closer and closer, and Duoduo said happily: "Wow, we are saved, we are saved!"

It's a pity that she made a mistake. This was not a fishing boat, but a large-scale pirate ship!

There were about a dozen pirates on the boat and they were about to dock. When they heard someone nearby shouting for help, they suddenly became interested.

"Brother, she is a woman, she is really a woman, haha!"

"Yes, brother, from the sound of her voice, she is still a very young woman!"

The pirates on the ship have been robbing at sea all year round, and they haven't robbed a woman for many years. I didn't expect to be so lucky today. When I was about to return home, I bumped into a female.

One by one, the pirates were like crazy, shaking their huge oars like crazy, and quickly approaching the bamboo raft... Soon, the two of them were escorted onto the pirate ship, and even faster, the pirates also

Before they could wake up from the excitement, they were all beaten to the ground.

"Woman, spare your life, spare your life!" The thief's neck was pressed tightly against the woman's dagger, and his legs were shaking in fear.

"I can spare my life, but please dock the ship quickly. I have something to do and I am in a hurry to return to the capital."

"Capital? Heroine, it's getting late now. I think we have to stay on our island for one night. I'll send you two back to the other side tomorrow. What do you think, Heroine?"

Duoduo saw that the sea breeze was quite strong, and there was a faint sound of thunder in the sky. If he crossed the sea forcefully, he might be in danger, so he had no choice but to say: "Okay, as you said, let's go back to the island first."

The Prince of Persia took Bin'er to live in the palace. A few days passed. Tomorrow is the day of the martial arts competition, but Duoduo Jing and the fifth prince have not seen any sign. Bin'er is thinking about something in his heart.

She was already crying: "Uncle Prince, why hasn't my mother come back yet? Is she not coming back?"

Prince of Persia said: "How could it be? Bin'er, don't worry, your mother will definitely come back to you. She is already on the way."

Prince of Persia said, and suddenly a "swish" sound broke through the air. Prince of Persia frowned, and suddenly caught a hidden weapon.

It was a dart, and there was a small note on the dart.

The Prince of Persia opened it and took a look, then turned to Bin'er and said: "Bin'er, uncle Prince has something to do and has to go out urgently. You have to stay well in Zizhuyuan, you know? I will be back soon."

"Oh, I see..." Bin'er turned around and returned very sensibly.

The Prince of Persia strode out and walked towards the outside of the palace... Bin'er waited for a long night, but there was still no news of her mother's return.

The next day, in the western suburbs of the capital, a place five miles away.

The area on the outskirts of Beijing was originally a secluded place, but today it was bustling with activity. Royal princes from the eleven northern and southern countries were all busy, hoping to win a respectable ranking in the martial arts competition and return home with great prestige.

!

The viewing platform is high up, and the emperor and several referees are already sitting firmly on the platform, waiting for the martial arts competition to begin.

Seeing that the time had come, the eunuch beside the emperor opened his hands and read out the imperial edict: "By God's will, the emperor has an edict. In order to enhance the friendship between the eleven countries in the north and south, the three-day martial arts competition has officially begun. I hope the heroes from all walks of life can obey it.

In order to avoid unnecessary disputes, I also hope that everyone here can achieve good results!"

After the eunuch finished speaking, the Emperor of the Southern Dynasty stood up and said loudly: "I announce that the martial arts competition will begin now!"

"Long live my king, long live, long live!" The contestants walked from the audience to the stage, then knelt down in front of Nangong Ming, and finally walked off the stage again, waiting for the exciting moment to come.

The people on the viewing platform were impatient at this time. Emperor Nangong Ming was sitting in the middle of the viewing platform, and on both sides of him sat several more famous civil servants and military generals in the dynasty, as well as some generals from the vassal states. They came.

Act as the referee for this martial arts competition.

Although Nangong Ming was smiling on the outside, the figure of the fifth prince still had not appeared until today, which made him unable to calm down in his heart. His eyes looked around from time to time, hoping to suddenly see the figure of the fifth prince.

Unfortunately, the person I hoped to see never showed up, and the game was about to start.

The radio officer walked up to the front desk and reported to many nobles: "The first match will be between the fifth prince of the Southern Dynasty, Nangong Jie, and the Snow King's prince Bai Guang. Please take the stage."

Bai Guang, the prince from the Snow Kingdom, walked steadily through the queue amidst the cheers of many people, saluted the people from all over the world in the audience, then turned back and gave a half-bow to the emperor, and then stood calmly and calmly on the stage.

in the middle, waiting for the opponent to come on stage.

However, after waiting for only half a stick of incense, the audience began to uproar, and the judge had to shout loudly: "Prince Nangong Jie, please come to the stage."

Unfortunately, despite shouting several times, there was still no trace of Nangong Jie. The magistrate had no choice but to turn back and ask for instructions: "Your Majesty, more than half an hour has passed and the fifth prince has not been able to come back. Look...

"

Nangong Ming waved his hand helplessly and said: "Oh, just think of him as abstaining, next one."

The referee took the order, turned around and returned to the ring and shouted: "Prince Nangong Jie was unable to participate due to something, and it will be treated as a forfeit. The next one, Prince Huayue, Huacai, please come on stage!"

People under the ring began to talk about it. They all felt that Nangong Jie was a loser. He didn't even have the courage to step onto the ring. This man had absolutely no talent at all and he had simply lost the face of his host.

The steward of Prince Ao's Mansion said excitedly: "Your Majesty, that person hasn't shown up yet, maybe he's too late, right? Now, now, the prince is the one, and he must be the prince."

Nangong Ao chuckled and said, "Huh, can't make it in time? I'm afraid I drove in the wrong direction and ended up in the underworld. Otherwise, with his housekeeper's temperament, how could he not bear to let him go on stage?"

"Well, your lord is absolutely right. Your lord, there is no competition for you today, and Prince Jie is not on stage. I think we should go back and rest first, so that we can recharge ourselves and kill them all tomorrow without leaving any trace behind."

"Well, that makes sense. I need to go back and rest, but you have to stay, steward. You must remember to pay close attention to me to see who is more powerful, so that I can be prepared."

"Now that I know about it, Your Majesty, I'll take care of it."

Nangong Jie failed to come on stage, so Nangong Ao lost all interest, yawned and went home.

And just when he turned around and walked a few steps, he heard the rapid sound of horse hooves in front of him, and everyone turned around to look.

I saw two sweaty horses coming towards the ring at a fast speed. A man and a woman on the horse were waving their whips in the strong wind. The sound of snapping was endless, and everyone's spirits were lifted!

Just as Hua Cai, the prince of Huayue Kingdom, was about to step onto the ring, he saw the two people on horseback jumping up at the same time. After the woman jumped up, she slapped the man on the sole of his foot with her palm. The man used the force of a long

Somersaulting, he landed firmly on the ring.

"Okay..." Prince Persia recognized Nangong Jie at a glance, and immediately clapped and shouted: "The fifth prince is back, well done! Come on!"

"Mother..." Bin'er was originally sitting in the stands with Nangong Ming. After seeing Duoduo appear, she was so excited that she ran down the stand while crying.

"Son...my baby..." Duoduo picked up his son, kissed him hard on the face, and said, "Son, do you miss your mother these days?"

"Hmm... I think... I really want to..." After saying this, Bin'er suddenly burst into tears.

Hearing his son cry so sadly, Duoduo shed tears, but he still touched his head and said, "Stop crying, honey. Mom will be angry if you cry again. Look, your godfather is already on stage."

"How beautiful, you are finally back!" Prince Persia was also excited. If it weren't for the difference between men and women, he would also rush over and hug him.

Nangong Ao was quite surprised. Judging from the super long somersault that Nangong Jie performed on stage just now, that boy's martial arts had indeed improved rapidly... At this time, a burst of noise suddenly sounded, and Prince Jie's palace

The gang of servants took out the gongs, drums and pots and pans that they had prepared and beat them rhythmically. They also shouted slogans: "King Jie, King Jie, you are the most flamboyant, King Jie, King Jie, you are the most flamboyant.

The brightest!"

Duoduo almost forgot about this cheerleading team. Unexpectedly, the servants had such a collective spirit and all came to cheer.

The originally extremely tense atmosphere was instantly relieved by the cheerleaders' funny performance, and everyone cast strange glances at Duoduo and her son.

Of course, there were many looks of disdain, which were all due to Nangong Jie's words at the last cocktail party.

"Great, the fifth prince rushed back in time, so now the normal order of the competition is restored, with Prince Bai Guang of the Snow King facing off against the fifth prince Nangong Jie!"

After the judge finished his roar, there was warm applause from the audience, and everyone couldn't wait.

However, Nangong Jie's clothes were extremely inconsistent with his status. They were made of gray coarse cloth and had several holes, making him look more civilian than a commoner.

In fact, I could have gotten better clothes, but unfortunately time waits for no one, so I had to temporarily grab those pirate clothes and put them on, but Duoduo was wearing his prince's clothes. The two of them were dressed very eye-catchingly.

It's strange.

Nangong Jie took a few steps forward, knelt down on one knee and said, "My son, please see your father!"
