Lin Xiao patted Li Yuyan on the shoulder and comforted him:
"I will choose a good day before setting off. Besides, my brain is not in vain!"
After hearing her words, Li Yuyan reluctantly relaxed, nodded and said:
"Forget it, just be careful and inform me immediately if anything happens!"
Lin Xiao nodded slightly and watched Li Yuyan leave.
Also leaving with Li Yuyan was Young Master Tang San, who is now Su Tang.
Only by joining the army will he have a new household registration and identity!
After Li Yuyan and Su Tang left, Yu Xilin felt that the knife hanging over his head had finally fallen, and he suddenly felt much more relaxed.
He also worked harder to purchase supplies for navigation, and soon everything Lin Xiao needed was purchased.
Looking at the supplies he needed, Lin Xiao smiled with satisfaction.
Half a month later, Lin Xiao and Yu Xilin headed towards Southeast Asia with several craftsmen and experienced crew members.
This time on her trip to Southeast Asia, she must find sweet potatoes and bring them back to the Daxia Dynasty.
The calm sea is now warm and sunny, seagulls are flying in the sky, and occasionally a few birds are heard, which seems to give the sea water a bit of aura.
Lin Xiao sat on the bow of the boat, looking at the blue sea in the distance with an intoxicated look on his face.
Yu Xilin sat next to her, folding his arms and looking at her seriously.
I vaguely remember the day I first met Lin Xiao. She was wearing coarse linen clothes and fighting against her lover, looking like a tough mountain villager.
Now, she has transformed into a special envoy appointed by the emperor, and her every move is full of the coercion and domineering power of the emperor.
"What are you thinking about?"
Just when Yu Xilin was lost in thought, Lin Xiao's clear voice rang in his ears. He was so frightened that he turned around quickly and saw Lin Xiao looking at him with a playful look on his face. He couldn't help but blush slightly on his cheeks:
"No, I didn't think about anything."
Seeing his shy look, Lin Xiao burst out laughing, then reached out and poked his arm:
"Are you afraid of long voyages?"
Yu Xilin smiled awkwardly:
"A little bit indeed."
"Then I'll tell you a way!"
Lin Xiao spoke mysteriously and authentically.
"What?"
"Let me teach you, when you feel scared, just pinch your own flesh hard. Once you feel the pain, you won't be afraid of anything."
As Lin Xiao spoke, he pulled up his sleeves in a demonstrative manner.
Looking at her fair and delicate wrist, Yu Xilin was a little lost. It was incredible that a man could have such a slender wrist!
Lin Xiao noticed his look, quickly retracted his arm, and coughed twice:
"How about it?"
Seeing Lin Xiao return to his normal expression, Yu Xilin came back to his senses, shook his head and said:
"I really don't dare. If I pinch the skin and leave scars, it won't be good."
Lin Xiao laughed after hearing this:
"If it's so serious, then let's find another way to play it."
"Um!"
Yu Xilin nodded in agreement.
As the two chatted, they didn't realize it was getting late.
The nights in this world are much longer than modern nights, especially now in the late autumn season.
Seeing the white fish belly gradually appearing on the horizon, Lin Xiao and Yu Xilin glanced at each other, then stood up at the same time and walked into the cabin.
As soon as I entered the cabin, I could clearly feel the ship shaking.
Immediately afterwards, the hull began to shake violently again.
"Ship, what's going on?"
Lin Xiao was a little surprised and quickly ran to the door to check.
A crew member stood at the door, pointing at the weather outside the nail class with a horrified look on his face. Lin Xiao followed his finger and looked outside, and couldn't help but be shocked!
The weather suddenly changed, strong winds raged, and huge waves set off on the sea!
Their ship was swaying with the wind in the sea. A strong wind swept by, and the ship's hull shook violently again, as if it would be swallowed by the huge waves in the next second!
"Why does the weather change so easily? It was fine just now..."
Yu Xilin had never seen such a scene before, and looked panicked.
Looking at his appearance, Lin Xiao was also a little worried, but there was nothing he could do.
The sea is not land and is beyond her control.
"Sir, let's turn around first! I just saw an island not far from us where we can take shelter for now. Let's set off again after the storm and waves pass!"
The crew member suggested.
Hearing this, Lin Xiao and Yu Xilin both nodded in agreement.
So, the crew adjusted the steering wheel and sailed slowly towards the island.
But at this time, the weather suddenly changed, and the storm seemed to be stronger than before.
A wave came over and caused Lin Xiao's boat to sway!
Lin Xiao and others lost their balance for a moment and fell to the deck one after another.
At this moment, their hearts completely sank into the sea.
They did not expect that the weather would suddenly become so bad, and their original plan to evacuate to the nearest island was shelved.
They had no choice but to stay on the ship and hope that the storm would pass quickly!
However, the weather was obviously not that simple. The violent storm not only did not weaken but became more intense.
The hull was constantly bumping due to the huge impact sound, and the stern part even showed signs of breaking!
Yu Xilin's face instantly turned pale, and dense cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"The ship, the ship is sinking!!!"
Yu Xilin's face turned pale, and he started to tremble when he opened his mouth.
Lin Xiao couldn't help but feel frightened after hearing this, and endless fear spread from the bottom of her heart.
At this time, their ship was continuously sliding down, and the wood on the hull had begun to break.
The mast at the bow of the ship began to break, exposing the outside of the hull.
The ship is descending, and the storm on the sea is becoming more and more violent.
At this time, their boat is like a small boat, which will be mercilessly swallowed by the sea water anytime and anywhere!
Yu Xilin looked outside, then at the hull of the ship, and suddenly remembered what Lin Xiao said before about 'pinch oneself', and quickly grabbed Lin Xiao's hand:
"me"
Looking at his panicked expression, Lin Xiao knew that he must have remembered what he said.
"Don't worry, Ji Ren has his own destiny, it will be fine!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a "click" sound, the mast bracket finally broke, the whole ship tilted suddenly, and rolled directly into the sea.
"ah!"
Yu Xilin exclaimed and quickly grabbed Lin Xiao and hugged her tightly.
The hull of the ship fell, and Lin Xiao was firmly protected in Yu Xilin's arms. Although she was panicked, she didn't have the slightest fear!
…
Lin Xiao, who was in a coma, was woken up by a small sea crab.
Opening her eyes, Lin Xiao found that she was lying on a wet beach, and Yu Xilin was lying next to her, her eyes closed tightly and her brows furrowed.
She quickly helped Yu Xilin up and patted his shoulder:
"Hey, are you okay?"
"I'm fine."
Yu Xilin rubbed his temples and opened his eyes:
"Where are we?"
"It should be on an island, I don't know exactly where it is."
After saying that, the two of them lowered their heads and looked at their surroundings.
I saw that they were on a beach, surrounded by a circle of coconut trees. The branches of the coconut trees were intertwined, blocking their sight.
