A few lights suddenly appeared in the mist not far away.
Several ships are following closely behind, also heading towards the island.
Qiao Qingqing thought it was the villagers who came after hearing the news, and stamped her feet angrily, "Axiba, how annoying!"
As she said this, she pulled Qiao Lianyi back to the ship.
"Third sister, what if brother Su Mo is here?"
"Look, it's as quiet as Silent Hill here. How could there be anyone here?"
In fact, Qiao Qingqing had been observing it for a long time. Although this island was not small, it could be seen at a glance. When they approached here, the sky was not completely dark yet, and they could see that there was no smoke from cooking fires in the forest.
I thought I would stay here for one night, but there were soldiers chasing me.
Thief Lu quietly shook Qiao Qingqing's sleeves, "Qiao Qiao, who do you think is that person on the bow of the boat?"
The ship's fire was as bright as day, and in the dark night, the king's wooden and black clothes were dancing in the wind.
Qiao Qingqing rolled her eyes, "No wonder it's so annoying."
"Qiaoqiao, aren't you even touched?"
"Touched?" Qiao Qingqing jumped onto the ship deftly, "Ten years ago, I would have shed tears of gratitude, but after ten years of killing fish at RT-Mart, my heart has long been as cold as a stone."
"Qiaoqiao, you were a butcher when you were six years old? How pitiful..."
Thief Lu clicked his tongue twice, but then he thought about it and felt something was wrong, "Hey~ didn't you arrive at the Prime Minister's Mansion when you were five years old?"
Qiao Qingqing ignored him and just urged, "Go faster and get rid of this heartless man."
Thief Lu shrugged helplessly at the man behind him and could only do as he was told.
Not long after, the ship sailed towards the boundless sea again.
As soon as midnight passed, heavy fog rose again, and Qiao Qingqing suddenly felt an ominous premonition in her heart.
After she silently recited "Evil evil spirits, evil spirits, retreat, retreat" a hundred times in her heart, she heard Qiao Lianyi scream again:
"Third sister, look, we are back, Ghost Island, we are back to Ghost Island again!"
Looking at the identical small island not far away, Qiao Qingqing felt despair!
When the ship docked, she finally stopped thinking about getting angry with Jun Muxi. In this situation, it was more efficient to join a group to keep warm than to fight alone.
The night wind blew the moist heat from the island onto Qiao Qingqing's cheeks.
Her eyes were blank until a joking Qi Shen came from beside her, "Don't you want to hide anymore?"
"Who is hiding from you?" Qiao Qingqing turned her head to the side.
"Did I say you were avoiding me?" Jun Muxi sat down without invitation.
After a long moment of silence, Jun Muxi said leisurely:
"There will be no Su Mo here."
"You have to say that?" Qiao Qingqing glared back fiercely.
"You are so capable, then tell me, where is Su Mo?" Jun Muxi tilted his head.
His arrogance has gone away, and his smile is indeed somewhat clear.
Qiao Qingqing glanced at him and forced herself to look away, "You are capable, what do you think?"
"I do not know."
This was the first time Jun Muxi showed confusion in front of her.
In the past, he always looked like he was sure of victory, but now, it seemed more real.
"Really or not? You don't know, will you put yourself in danger? I don't believe it, V me fifty..."
Before she finished speaking, Jun Muxi threw her a fifty-tael silver ingot.
"What are you doing? You want to buy me with money? I tell you, that's not possible!"
Qiao Qingqing raised her hand and stuffed the silver into Jun Muxi's big palm. However, the man held a long sword in his hand, the hilt of the sword was hidden in the dark night, and her wrist hit it steadily.
Suddenly, a heart-wrenching pain spread across my wrist!
"Hiss~"
Qiao Qingqing grimaced in pain.
"What's wrong? Why are you so careless?"
Jun Muxi habitually held her catkin, but the girl shook him away like a snake or a scorpion.
"I want you to take care of it!"
Jun Muxi's big palm stopped in mid-air, and then slowly fell down for a while.
"You have really changed."
He chuckled, and his thoughts were stretched for a moment, "I remember back then, even if you were lightly bumped by a tree trunk, you still had to act weak in front of me and cry until you were full of tears..."
Qiao Qingqing tightened her toes in an awkward moment, like an octopus firmly attached to the ground:
"What are you talking about? Tell me how to find Jun Sumo. If you can't find Jun Sumo, your eldest sister will lose weight and lose face..."
Jun Muxi smiled fondly, raised his hand and rubbed the top of her hair:
"The 'Ghost Island' has a reputation for being able to enter but never exit. I was not sure when I came in this time."
???
Qiao Qingqing gritted her teeth, "I'm not sure what you're doing here?!"
Without waiting for Jun Muxi to respond, she immediately woke up Gugu:
"Hey, didn't you say that this is an ancient Chinese novel, not a fantasy novel? What's going on with the 'Ghost Island'? Ghosts breaking the wall? System, you are so brave, don't you know that feudal superstition is untouchable?"
【That’s why you are valuable!】
"What's the meaning?"
[Of course there won’t be any strange place where there is an entrance but no exit. Think carefully about how to come back. Remember, you must believe in science, come on! 】
"..."
Qiao Qingqing clenched her fists angrily and lowered her head silently. Seeing this, Jun Muxi stretched out his big palm and waved it in front of her eyes, "What's wrong?"
"Jun Muxi," Qiao Qingqing slowly raised her head with a pious attitude, "Put aside our grudges for now. Let's play a game."
As she said this, she led Jun Muxi into the cabin. By this time, everyone had fallen asleep, and the candlelight on the table was swaying a little due to the sea breeze. Qiao Qingqing spread out a piece of rice paper and concentrated on it. Soon, a circle appeared on the paper.
Jun Muxi raised his eyebrows, "What then?"
"Based on your many years of combat experience, if this is an isolated island on the sea, do you think there is any way to make ships circle around this island?"
Jun Muxi understood. He stared at the circle for a long time, and finally took the brush from Qiao Qingqing's hand, and added a few more circles around it, surrounding it, leaving an open sea level in the middle.
"Perhaps there is more than one island. The fog here makes it difficult to see the direction. There should be iron ore on the island. The compass has always failed, allowing the water flow to lead the ship to circle around these small islands. If the terrain in the middle was not low-lying, I would not think about it.
There are other reasons."
Hmm? Vortex? Centripetal force?
At this moment, Qiao Qingqing suddenly realized!
No wonder it fogged up as soon as they left the island. She had no way of verifying the specific climate factors, but the explanation given by Jun Muxi perfectly explained the value of science!
"Jun Muxi, you are really smart!" Qiao Qingqing couldn't hold back and raised her hand to rub his handsome face.
Jun Muxi's original solemn expression broke through in an instant!
"Qingqing..."
"Stop! Stop it!"
In line with the principle of throwing it away after use, Qiao Qingqing waved her hand and said, "You and I are not done yet!"
Jun Muxi regained his pretense, clenched his fist in embarrassment, put it to his lips and coughed lightly, then changed the subject:
"This is just a conjecture. What's more, the exact number of islands is still unknown."
Qiao Qingqing patted her chest confidently, "Three, we are now near the second island. If we walk a little further, we will meet Jun Sumo."
"how do you know?"
Because I have an extra time card for writing! Hey!
Qiao Qingqing calmed down her expression, yawned delicately, and said lazily, "I guessed it just like you."
