As its name suggests, Kiriyu Island is named after the thick fog that surrounds the island all year round.
There are also hidden reefs scattered around the outside, which can be said to be a natural pass.
Qin Zhaonan and others were able to rise up in the East China Sea under the eyes of the two major forces, the Fang Family on Penglai Island and the Huang Family on Taohua Island, and become the third leader in just twenty years. The unique terrain of Wuliu Island accounted for at least five percent of the success!
The sky-swallowing whale slowly swam into the fog.
Traveling through the vast white mist, it was like entering a fairyland. Cao Jinxing was unusually nervous.
It’s not that I’m afraid, it’s that I’m wrong…
I heard from Qin Xuanji that her eldest sister has a very bad temper... Her father is very righteous, but he is in retreat to break through the Dharma...
Qin Xuanji saw his serious face and clenched her fists unconsciously, smiling secretly in her heart, feeling a little aggrieved and a little distressed.
If she had not left more than three months ago, this situation would not have happened.
Qin Xuanji once secretly asked Lu Yi about Cao Jinxing's situation in the past three months. She learned about the Wild Ghost Village, Huang Fanling who cut out bones to help in the battle, and Lu Yi's unfinished words... A friend in need is a friend indeed.
The reason why Cao Jinxing is in trouble is that he gave her the promise first...
Qin Xuanji put her hand on Cao Jinxing's and said softly: "It's okay. My eldest sister is not a man-eating monster. She is very good."
Cao Jinxing smiled bitterly. It was not a big problem at first. Cao Jinxing asked himself about his qualifications. His background was definitely worthy of Qin Xuanji, but once he found out that he was engaged, it would be over!
The Qin family is not a small family, Qin Xuanji is still the apple of Qin Zhaonan's eye, the eldest sister Qin Xuanque's favorite sister, so it would be easy if she doesn't drive him out of Wuliu Island...
Alas, let’s brush up on the favorability level first.
Cao Jinxing looked back at the [Dark Sea Date Tree] and [Deep Sea Date Sea] dragged by Niu Gui. This was only the first step.
"Who is trespassing on Kiryu Island!"
"It seems to be a sky-swallowing whale?"
"Second Miss, it's Second Miss!"
"Second Miss is back!"
The whistle in the fog detected the situation and shouted loudly.
Immediately afterwards, the entire Kiryu Island was shocked.
at the same time.
At Donggang Pier, Qin Xuanque, the current helmsman of the Qin family, was taking several uncles to listen to reports from his subordinates.
"Miss, these are the first batch of shipwreck treasures unearthed from the bottom of Cangming Island."
A middle-aged man ordered three large boxes to be unloaded from the ship.
"Cangming Island?"
Qin Xuanque is dressed in an aqua blue dress, and her appearance is 70% similar to Qin Xuanji's. She is also very beautiful, but she is slightly older, has more majestic eyebrows, and a dashing appearance.
She frowned and looked at the three large boxes covered with patina. There was actually an ancient mechanism [wheel lock], and she said coldly: "Open it!"
"yes."
The servant behind him went to pry the box with iron pliers.
The wheel lock cannot be forcibly opened by external force, but if it takes too long, the internal mechanism has become rusty, so there is no need to worry about counterattack.
Click!
The three boxes were opened one after another, revealing the gold and silver vessels inside.
Although not as perfect as today's craftsmanship, it is still very luxurious, noble, and has a sense of mystery from ancient times.
Behind Qin Xuanji are Qin Zhaonan's three sworn brothers, all of whom were contemporary heroes with both civil and military skills.
As soon as they looked at the contents of the box, they made a rough guess about the dynasty. One of the white-clothed Confucian scholars stroked his beard and said: "Looking at the smelting technique, it is undoubtedly a craft from the Qin and Han Dynasties, especially these cloud pattern wine princes.
Palace utensils... The sunken ship under Cangming Island has an extraordinary origin. Xuanque needs to send more manpower to dig out all the treasures before the other two families discover it!"
"Um."
Qin Xuanque nodded, turned around and said to another middle-aged man in his early forties with a wine gourd hanging from his waist: "Thank you, uncle."
"give it to me."
The man chuckled lightly, and immediately returned to the shipwreck site on Cangming Island with the people unloading the cargo to help others dig out the remaining treasures.
"The sunken ship is huge, and the excavation will not happen overnight. I will accompany the fourth child. Bring more people and transport the most precious things back as soon as possible."
Another man in green robes carrying a spear followed and said.
"Third uncle..."
Qin Xuanque hesitated: "My father is currently in seclusion. If you go with your fourth uncle, only your second uncle will be in charge of Wuliu Island. I'm afraid..."
"It doesn't matter."
The white-clothed scholar smiled slightly, looked at Dawu, and said to Yan, "The Sky-Swallowing Whale is back... Xuanji is very capable, and she seems to have brought back a big guy. With these two giant beasts, plus me,
There is also the Kiryu Island natural chasm, even if the other two families attack together, they can still fight!"
"oh?"
Qin Xuanque said in surprise: "Xuanji is back? This stinky girl didn't say anything in advance. In that case, please ask the third uncle and the fourth uncle to come together. If the shipwreck really attracts covetous attention from all directions, there is no need to fight. The safety of the two of you is for the sake of safety.
Heavy."
Yang Jingchen, the owner of the third island, and Mao Jiahe, the owner of the fourth island, both smiled and said at the same time: "Then we will go first."
Qin Xuanque gave him a blessing.
After watching the two island owners leave, Qin Xuanque was about to go find Qin Xuanji when he glanced at the third box from the corner of his eye and found a bronze mechanism ball in the gold and silver pile with different patterns on the six sides.
It was similar to the Mohist "Mo Fang", but it had more squares and more complicated layers. She picked it up casually and tried to restore it as she walked.
At this moment, a servant came quickly with a happy face. Just as he was about to speak, Qin Xuanque said without raising her head: "Second Miss is back? Which way did you take?"
"Uh... the eldest lady knows things like a god, she is Xiaoyunjiao."
"lead the way."
"Yes... Miss, there is one more thing."
The servant hesitated, looking embarrassed to speak.
The white-clothed scholar Shi Yi raised his eyebrows.
Qin Xuanque raised her head with a murderous look on her face: "Xuanji is injured?"
"No, no, the second lady is intact, but she has a companion... a man, who behaves... uh... behaves intimately..."
"Um?!"
Qin Xuanque's eyes suddenly widened.
Shi Yi suddenly showed an expression of interest, which was really rare.
Second Miss Qin may seem innocent, but like her eldest sister, she is a person with high aspirations, but she doesn't show it.
There are so many young talents in the East China Sea. In recent years, people seeking marriage have almost crossed the threshold of the Qin family. Miss Qin still looks that leisurely, not caring at all. She looks like she can do it with anyone, but in fact, she can do it with anyone.
no!
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! It seems that there are indeed capable people in the Central Plains. It took only a short time for someone to subdue Na Nizi.
Shi Yi stroked his beard and smiled, suddenly wanting to see that person.
As for Qin Xuanque, his expression was completely opposite to Shi Yi's, and his face was even more murderous.
In her opinion, it must be the Central Plains people who deceived Qin Xuanji with their sweet talk!
How dare you land on the island?
court death!
…
the other side.
Xiaoyunjiao.
Qin Xuanji hugged Cao Jinxing and jumped off the Sky-Swallowing Whale in front of all the servants. She looked so cautious that even a blind person could see the problem.
"Xuanji..."
Cao Jinxing whispered awkwardly: "I'm much better now. I can go on my own... How can I meet people like this? They will treat me as a weak and sick child..."
"Don't worry about them."
Qin Xuanji said domineeringly: "You only need to see me, you don't need to see anyone else... Actually, if I want to make you angry... I really hope that you will be sick for a longer time, so that you can stay on Wuliu Island longer.
Already..."
"..."
After all, Cao Jinxing is not an ordinary person. His mind is not an island and can be restrained by a sea. Sooner or later he will return to the Central Plains.
"Xuanji..."
"I know, you don't have to be embarrassed, just say it. I want you to stay with me, but I also want you to be healthy. Both are selfish, do you believe it?"
Qin Xuanji raised her head and smiled, her charming color blinding the servants around her.
Everyone looked at this young man with wide eyes, wondering what kind of ability he had that made their second young lady make such an expression!
He looks quite handsome and matches the second lady very well, but his body is too weak and he has no internal strength at all, as if he has never practiced martial arts.
How can such a person be the son-in-law of the Qin family?
Don't just have a clever mouth and just talk sweet words!
"Niugui!"
Qin Xuanji turned around and shouted, as a huge creature emerged from the bottom of the water, causing everyone to shout in shock.
However, with the "successful lesson" of the Sky-Swallowing Whale, they quickly realized that this was the second young lady's new pet beast.
As expected of the second young lady!
All pets need to be big!
"Follow us home and put the tree..."
Qin Xuanji was giving instructions to Niu Gui, but she didn't notice that an astonishing murderous aura was approaching at a very fast speed!
"Um?"
Cao Jinxing looked at the beautiful woman who was running angrily in front of him and looked somewhat similar to Qin Xuanji, and frowned slightly.
what's the situation?
The engagement was leaked so quickly?!
He quickly stretched out his fingers and pinched it in the air!
Clang!
The sword fingers crossed and there was a small sound.
The long sword thrust out like lightning suddenly froze in mid-air, unable to move forward!
The fierce offensive disappeared into nothingness in an instant!
This was so unexpected that everyone was stunned. No one expected that this person who had to be supported by the second lady even when he was about to climb up would be able to use such a simple and quick move. He also had extremely deep hidden inner strength and was even taller than the eldest lady!
Qin Xuanque raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.
Behind him, Shi Yi nodded secretly.
The eldest lady is completely careless and chaotic. If she thinks about it seriously, she should understand that the second lady, who is no less proud than her, will not bring back an ordinary person who can only play with words!
"Sister!"
Qin Xuanji reacted and was startled. Her internal strength had indeed improved by leaps and bounds, but her vigilance was still low. She thought she had relaxed at home, but she didn't expect the eldest sister to suddenly thrust out this sword!
"Don't hurt him!"
Qin Xuanji quickly stopped in front of Cao Jinxing and shouted to Qin Xuanque: "He is injured! I invited him to come to Wuliu Island to recuperate. How could you do such a cruel thing to my guest! If you touch him again,
I, I don’t like you anymore!”
Qin Xuanque: "..."
After being speechless for a while, Qin Xuanque sheathed her sword and said coldly: "Qin Xuanji! Don't do this to me. If you are an ordinary guest, Wuliu Island will certainly welcome you, but he..." He is trying to trick you.
Of course you can’t let it go!
"What's up with him?"
Qin Xuanji said angrily: "Do you think I am an inexperienced child? Will I bring people with evil intentions into Wuliu Island? Will I bring bad people to see you and daddy? I thought Wuliu Island could bring him safety, but in the end
This is how you treat him! If he was seriously injured, you would have killed him! Qin Xuanque! I don’t like you anymore!!!"
The more she spoke, the more aggrieved she became. She wiped away her tears, turned around and took Cao Jinxing to leave!
There was anger, disappointment, and fear in the cry...
"..."
Only then did Qin Xuanque realize that she had always regarded her as a child who should be protected, but Xuanji was already seventeen. She should trust her judgment. At least she would not bring people with evil intentions and bad backgrounds into the Qin family's home.
place……
Qin Xuanque suddenly felt regretful.
Of course Cao Jinxing understood why Qin Xuanque took action. If he had a teenage sister who brought back a man for the first time on a trip, he would also feel there was something wrong and worry that she was deceived because she was not experienced in the world...
Moreover, the sword just aimed at the left shoulder, not the left chest, and even if it couldn't be blocked, it was just a skin injury... more like a disastrous attack.
Qin Xuanque did not expect that Qin Xuanji would take the lead. He knew that she was not trying to kill anyone, but he still used these words to stab her. It seems that the second sister has made progress during this trip...
Of course, it's also possible that she was too concerned and confused and didn't pay attention at all...
Qin Xuanque is smart and she understands very well that Qin Xuanji is the second type!
She didn't think so much at all, otherwise she wouldn't be so confident and aggrieved...
She really fell in love with this man...
Qin Xuanque sighed in his heart.
"Second Miss, don't be afraid. Your sister will not kill your friends. She is just worried that you will be deceived and wants to warn you. The method was a little more aggressive. She just stabbed her shoulder... she just wronged this young hero."
Shi Yi walked forward with a smile, cupped his fists and saluted Cao Jinxing and said: "I, Shi Yi, as the second owner of Wuliu Island, I would like to apologize to you on behalf of the eldest lady. The second lady has always been the pearl of the island and is deeply loved by everyone.
, his father, and his sister cherished him extremely! In a moment of urgency, the attack was of no importance. Fortunately, you are a young man with superb martial arts, and I hope Haihan... The martial arts of the Central Plains is indeed wonderful. I have always been yearning for it. During the period of recuperation,
Please feel free to give me some advice..."
After saying this, he bowed deeply.
"..."
Cao Jinxing smiled.
This old fox really knows how to talk...
Shi Yi didn't spare Qin Xuanji a word, but first said that Qin Xuanque's sword was not fatal, so that Qin Xuanji would not have any lingering fears - what she was most afraid of was that Qin Xuanque killed Cao Jinxing with one sword, and as for her own grievances in front of this
It’s nothing!
He first explained the main crux of the matter, then sincerely apologized, and then said that his father and sister love her, but caring about her will cause chaos. This was used to show the root cause and let Qin Xuanji understand that the reason why he took action was not that he didn't trust her, but that he cared too much about her!
Then there is the matter of praising Cao Jin... This is easier than praising Qin Xuanji herself...
The last step is the ultimate move to recover from injuries!
Qin Xuanji brought Cao Jinxing to Wuliu Island because she was afraid that she would not be able to protect him by herself, and hoped to have a place where he could rest safely. If he ran away in anger at this time, he would certainly punish Qin Xuanque, but it would also harm Cao Jinxing.
There are tigers and wolves outside, and there are spies everywhere around Kiryu Island. Once you fall into the eyes of an interested person, a good thing will turn into a bad thing...
No wonder he can be the second island master. Cao Jinxing admires his speaking skills very much.
"Second Island Master, you're welcome."
Cao Jinxing could only borrow Poxia's donkey, could he punish his sister-in-law? The one who felt uncomfortable was Qin Xuanji, so she said: "It's just a misunderstanding, it's excusable, don't worry about it. Xuanji, your sister is doing this for your own good, it doesn't matter to me."
,Do not be angry……"
"But...but..."
Shi Yi's words were very useful, but Qin Xuanji was still a little scared and turned her back to Qin Xuanque, stamping her feet and wiping her tears.
Qin Xuanque sighed, looking at the back, he could only give in, and said helplessly with a doting look on his face: "Second uncle, ask the best doctor on the island to go to Tunyun Tuwu Tower to treat this young hero.
.”
Shi Yi smiled and said: "Yes, I will arrange it right away, young hero please."
Swallowing the clouds and spitting the fog into the building?
Qin Xuanji stopped stamping her feet this time, but she was still stubborn and refused to look back.
Cao Jinxing had no choice but to lean close to her ear - this action made Qin Xuanque glare again.
In fact, Cao Jinxing was just expressing his attitude. He sent a message and said: "Xuanji, don't forget what I said in the cave. The relationship is too tense. How can I propose marriage..."
Qin Xuanji's face suddenly turned red. She hesitated for a moment and turned around silently. However, she still didn't look at Qin Xuanque angrily. She only said: "I'll take you to Tunyun Tuwu Tower. Niu Gui will follow you! Hum.
, let’s see who dares to bully you!”
"Roar!"
Water splashes everywhere.
A cow-ghost as tall as a mountain climbed out of the water, holding the [Netherworld Date Sea Tree] with its two tentacles, and strode ashore.
Looking at the behemoth, Qin Xuanque was surprised.
Shi Yi's face also changed greatly, and he murmured: "Exotic beasts, cow ghosts, dark sea date trees... The second lady really brought back something amazing!"
It’s so uncomfortable! I can still hold back even if I’m positive, but when I curl up under the quilt in the cold, I end up with a stiff neck, which could kill me!
