Bai Yuquan was also surprised. He looked at Princess Xiyun's back, blinked and said nothing.
Princess Xiyun didn't know what to say, so she nodded and stepped back.
Lin Xiaodong continued to take the lead and gritted his teeth.
It was already afternoon. After crossing the mountain, it was almost dark, and the sun was setting in the west. In front of the three of them was the endless sea, with sparkling waves and calm waves.
The sun sets over the sea, purple clouds pile up on the horizon, the sea water is reflected in red, white waterbirds hover on the coast, and a small fishing village sits on the stretch of beach.
"This is the territory of the Shark Clan!"
Princess Xiyun pointed to the fishing village at the foot of the mountain.
Lin Xiaodong looked down and saw green trees on the shore. On the beach, there were some tall wooden buildings scattered in heights. There were houses on the upper floor, and fishing boats were parked on the lower floor. The pillars were submerged in the sea water.
As the sun sets, it is time for the fishermen to return. From time to time, some fishing boats sail into the harbor, and there is laughter and laughter on the pier.
"Well... looking at their palace, I thought the Sharks were so grand, but it turns out it's just a small fishing village."
Lin Xiaodong said.
Princess Xiyun pointed to the sea and said: "This is just the port of the Shark Clan. Half of them are ordinary fishermen. Most of the Shark Clan live on the island. We have to rent a boat from here to go to sea."
Lin Xiaodong took out the treasure map and looked at it. It was indeed true. The Deep Sea Dragon Palace was on the bottom of the sea, which made sense.
Bai Yuquan said: "It's so late, let's rest today. There should be a place like an inn in the village."
"Then let's go."
Lin Xiaodong was a little impatient. He had been exposed to the wind and sun all the way and slept in the open air. Today he finally had a roof and a bed to sleep.
Entering the village, the ground was muddy, and fishermen were everywhere. They were all covered in mud. The fishmongers and fishermen at the port were bargaining fiercely. The smell of fish floated in the air. Some people started cooking, and there was a burst of sound.
The smell of seafood made Lin Xiaodong and the others salivate and their stomachs growl.
"Hello, how can I get to the inn in the village?"
Princess Xiyun stopped a fisherman and asked.
The fisherman pointed to the port: "It's right next to the pier."
Everyone rushed over to take a look. The village was not big, but it had quite complete entertainment facilities. There were teahouses, baths, chess and card games, an inn and an embroidery shop. There was a whole street. Fishermen who went to sea and the sharks from the island were all trading at the dock. After the transaction, it was...
Come and have fun on the street.
The three of them chose an inn at random, and Princess Xiyun said loudly: "Boss, there are three guest rooms."
The boss was a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes. He glanced at the three of them, raised his eyebrows, and then immediately smiled: "Okay, okay, follow me, follow me!"
The three of them followed the boss upstairs, and Princess Xiyun said again: "The three of us are hungry, so hurry up and prepare a banquet!"
"understand!"
The boss took three people to a room and said, "This is a single room. It's very clean and quiet."
When Princess Xiyun saw the bed, she fell on it: "Ah... only now do I know how comfortable it is to lie on the bed!"
The boss chuckled and said, "The three of you have rooms connected to each other. You two, come with me."
The boss arranged a room for the three of them and then left, saying: "Wait a moment, you three. I'll ask someone to bring tea and the food will be ready soon!"
The three of them closed the door and simply washed up. Lin Xiaodong sat on the bed and looked at the door in a daze. He sighed in his heart: It was the three of us when we set off, but now, Lan Ruo is gone, and Cai Cai is gone, but I hate me the most.
Princess, come with us now...Lan Ruo, Cai Cai, I will definitely avenge you! The food and wine came quickly and were sent to the princess's room. The three of them ate together, by the sea. Of course, it was a whole fish feast with steamed fish heads.
"Hmm..." Princess Xiyun picked up the spoon, took a sip of crucian carp soup, closed her eyes and savored it carefully, praising: "Well! There is no such delicious fish soup in the palace!"
Bai Yuquan smiled and said: "Princess, you are in the palace and you are used to eating delicacies from mountains and seas. We have been bumpy for a few days and have eaten Elaeagnus angustifolia every day. We have been hungry for so many days, and everything tastes delicious."
Princess Xiyun smiled happily: "Yes, yes!"
Lin Xiaodong also had a good meal and was in a better mood.
"It's rare to have a full meal, let's have a drink."
Princess Xiyun picked up the wine glass.
"Okay, it will be an honor to drink with the princess."
Bai Yuquan also picked up his wine glass.
Lin Xiaodong shook his head sadly: "Long Yue is not dead yet, I am not in the mood to drink."
The atmosphere suddenly disappeared for Lin Xiaodong, and both Princess Xiyun and Bai Yuquan lowered their heads.
After a long silence, Bai Yuquan said: "Long Yue will die sooner or later."
Princess Xiyun raised her head and said seriously to Lin Xiaodong: "Don't worry, when I go back, I will definitely ask the masters in the palace to hunt him down and avenge Miss Lan Ruo and Cai Cai."
Lin Xiaodong shook his head: "I want to kill him with my own hands."
Bai Yuquan nodded and picked up the wine glass: "Then let's have a drink with Lanruo and Cai Cai."
The three of them raised their glasses and fell to the ground. Lin Xiaodong looked solemn: "Have a good trip!"
The three of them drank a few more drinks. Princess Xiyun was sleepy and remembered the sad things. She smiled drunkenly and said: "My father is seriously ill, so I will be here with you, eating, drinking, having fun, and talking drunken nonsense."
Lin Xiaodong also smiled bitterly: "I was obsessed with it and wanted to go treasure hunting, but I lost two of my best friends."
Bai Yuquan also laughed at himself and shook his head: "I want to save my daughter, but here I am drunk and crazy. When I go back, I still don't know the year of the monkey and the month of the horse."
Princess Xiyun squinted her eyes and smiled: "Qingfeng is my most trusted guard, I didn't expect him to do such a thing, use a living person to feed the eagles?
Use living people as bait?”
When mentioning this matter, Lin Xiaodong was also angry and squinted his eyes: "Isn't he your lackey?
He killed innocent people indiscriminately, was it not your order?"
Princess Xiyun felt wronged: "I was scared too! I didn't know he was so crazy and came to the desert. I didn't dare to care about him! I was afraid he would fall out with me!"
Lin Xiaodong smiled fiercely: "Princess, you keep saying that he is your most trusted guard, why do you just let me destroy his cultivation?"
"What can I do?
Can I still die of thirst here?
You forced me to do so!"
Princess Xiyun was also a little angry and glared at Lin Xiaodong angrily.
"Don't mention the past anymore."
Bai Yuquan waved his hand.
"What's more, at that time, he didn't listen to me at all, and would use living people to explore the way. I was also afraid of him, so I just wanted to use your hands to destroy his cultivation."
Princess Xiyun told the truth.
Lin Xiaodong twisted his mouth: "Qingfeng is responsible for his many evil deeds."
Princess Xiyun's eyes were filled with sadness: "As long as there is someone around me who sincerely cares for me, I will not let Qingfeng do whatever he wants."
Bai Yuquan smiled: "Yes, princess, you are a member of the royal family and are unpopular. If no one is loyal to you, it will be troublesome."
Princess Xiyun sighed melancholy: "I thought Qingfeng was loyal to me, but who knew, he actually gave me the incense, and I was almost killed by Lu Liangcai and the others..."
