The timely appearance of the Southern Expeditionary Army, Long Jiuzun and Yue Minzhi's beheading almost like cutting wheat, finally resolved the crisis in Vatican Port around dawn.
The baggage ship that Long Jiuzun and others boarded and the sea and air ship that Yue Jinghua and others boarded landed on the ground almost at the same time, and a circle of people quickly gathered around the ship.
Long Jiuzun originally thought that the people were here to greet the Southern Expeditionary Army, but he didn't know that when Salman took Yudan's hand and walked down, the fishermen let out a deafening cheer.
In the hearts of the simple fishermen, they did not know what the Southern Expedition Army was. They only knew that there was a team of troops risking their lives to rescue an ordinary child from a fishing village. Their sincere gratitude turned into waves, one after another.
Long Jiuzun's eyes flashed with haze, but he soon showed a smile and walked quickly towards the captain of the Coast Guard Ya Lei.
According to the establishment of the imperial army, Long Jiuzun is a major general of the empire and is a second-rank official. Although Yue Minzhi is the heir to the Duke's Palace, since he has not been officially awarded the title, his status is not as good as that of Long Jiuzun.
This also means that as soon as Long Jiuzun arrives, he becomes the highest military and defense officer in Vatican Port.
Ya Lei had already heard the illustrious name of Long Jiuzun, the Imperial War God. After he saluted, he explained the situation in Vatican Port in detail, including the earlier arrival of Yue Jinghua and others, who helped set up defenses, and lent sea and air ships.
things.
Yue Minzhi saw that his sister was safe and sound, and a smile appeared on his face.
Ji Yun and Qing Zizhu glared at Long Jiuzun angrily and discussed privately how to question Long Jiuzun.
Unexpectedly, Long Jiuzun didn't leave them any chance. After listening to Captain Ya Lei's report, he straightened his face and said, "Thank you Captain Ya Lei. This time the Southern Expeditionary Army delayed the rescue, all because of a little
The detachment did not follow military discipline and deviated from the marching route. I will punish them severely later. The sea beast riot has just ended, and the people in Vatican Port must be in disarray. Captain Ya Lei is also requested to immediately send the local coastal defense force to be on guard to collect local casualties.
Condition."
How cunning is Long Jiuzun, how could he allow Yue Jinghua and others to come and question him.
He had just calmed down Captain Ya Lei, and then immediately severely punished Yue Jinghua and others. The excuse for punishing them was that they did not follow military discipline and left the army without permission.
When Ji Yun and others heard this, they became furious, "Long Jiuzun, you scumbag, how dare you say that you didn't do anything with Xuan Dan? We left the army without authorization. It's obvious that you are jealous of us. You want to
Put people to death."
Ji Yun recounted one by one how several people were almost killed earlier but managed to escape thanks to the help of the formation master beside Yue Jinghua.
Yue Minzhi felt angry in his heart after hearing this, but after receiving Yue Jinghua's hinting look, he suppressed his anger.
"Oh, how many of you are worthy of being tabooed by this Major General? Ji Yun, you think too highly of yourself," Long Jiuzun smiled proudly, his brows filled with disdain, "What you few said is full of loopholes and ridiculous.
.This Major General has never heard of any other formations in the world. The formation master next to Yue Jinghua is young and has an unknown origin. How can he describe the magic that even the veteran formation masters cannot describe?
Formation. This is clearly an excuse that you guys want to evade in private. You violated military discipline and arbitrarily forced Captain Ya Lei of the Coast Guard Army to lend out sea and air ships. You couldn't even take care of your companions who were traveling together, and they lost their lives at sea. Your
This behavior is simply a disgrace to the Southern Expeditionary Army. After this major general recognized you all as nobles, and marched for the first time, I punished you for ten days in the water prison of the Coast Defense Force. You must obey whether you accept it or not.
Little Duke Yue, please escort a few people to the harbor water prison."
In order to show his fairness, he also ordered people to imprison Long Rui together.
Seeing that Yue Min was motionless, Long Jiuzun sneered: "Why, little Duke Yue, even you want to disobey military discipline. I, the Major General, and my sister Long Rui were both imprisoned, but you are going to bend the law for your own gain."
, can you protect Yue Jinghua?"
After hearing this, Long Rui's expression changed slightly, but it was the first time he met his brother.
Yue Minzhi also had a stiff face, and anger was already gushing out from his eyes.
If Yue Minzhi did not follow Long Jiuzun's instructions, it would be a violation of military discipline. In this way, he would kill all the Yue brothers and sisters.
Unexpectedly, Yue Jinghua was not fooled, she sneered, "Don't bother my brother, we will receive the punishment on our own. "Long Jiuzun, please remember, I received the punishment today not because I obeyed you, but because
As ministers, we must obey the emperor's orders and military authority. In life, either the east wind suppresses the west wind, or the west wind suppresses the east wind."
After saying that, she naturally raised her steps and strode forward like a coastal defense force water prison.
When the other people saw it, they were filled with indignation and followed Yue Jinghua away.
Yue Minzhi snorted coldly and walked away.
Cheng Ying rolled her beautiful eyes, half-smiling but not smiling. Long Jiuzun wanted to step forward to express his goodwill, but he pushed her away by saying that she was sick.
Port Vatican is adjacent to the sea, and the cells built by the Coast Guard are also different from other places.
As the name suggests, the water prison is built in the water.
The water prison was built near the sea in a hollowed-out sea cliff.
The cell is only four square meters in size, and there is not even a bed for lying down. The prisoners can only stand all day long, soaked in knee-deep sea water, and only eat two meals a day, which are coarse rice and smelly dried fish.
Such humble food will be washed by waves three times every day in the morning, afternoon and dusk.
There is no lighting in the water prison, and it is difficult for sunlight to penetrate into the dim sea cliff. Even though it is summer, the water prison is eerie and freezing.
When the waves are strong, they roll up the gravel on the sea cliff and hit people's bodies like whips.
After ten days of confinement, with such waves washing away day after day, those with lower cultivation levels would be haggard when they came out.
Fortunately, the cultivation of several people is pretty good, especially those who are above the Earth Mysterious such as Ji Yun, Long Rui, and Yue Jinghua, who can withstand the cold after channeling their profound energy.
Perhaps he thought that Yue Jinghua and others were punished because he reported the military situation. Captain Ya Lei was very sorry and arranged for them to be together.
Ji Yun, Qing Zizhu and others often made complaints and scolded Long Jiuzun.
Long Rui's cell was adjacent to Yue Jinghua's cell. After she was imprisoned, she remained silent.
Although the environment in the water prison was a little bad, Yue Jinghua didn't care.
Being locked up in a cell gave her a quiet place to think, and the waves hitting her were as insignificant as scratching an itch for her who had gone through the dragon forging.
She simply took out the devil's shell that she had not had time to take a closer look at earlier, and called out the Golden Silkworm, and observed it carefully together.
He had been locked up for about three days. That night, Yue Jinghua took out the devil shell again and was about to take a closer look when he suddenly heard a slight greeting from Long Rui in the next cell.
