The tide rises and falls, the sun and moon change.
The time spent at sea is really unnoticeable.
Soon, nearly a month passed.
The area south of Wuzhou is an endless sea area, known as the Thousand Islands.
It is synonymous with mystery, beauty and richness, but also contains unknown dangers and novelties.
Thousands of islands, large and small, are dotted in the vast sea. For Zhongzhou, this area only exists in ancient books or some travel notes. There are even fewer people who know these sea routes.
And few.
Moreover, it must be accompanied by crew members who are familiar with the route and have extensive experience at sea.
Most of the people from Zhongzhou who came to explore this land perished in this seemingly peaceful and beautiful sea, but full of murderous intent. The few who survived were left in this sea forever.
On this day, Ling Xiyue was leaving the cabin, planning to go to the deck to bask in the sun, when she saw Su Bei happily waving not far away.
He was still shouting something happily, as if he had met an acquaintance.
Meeting an acquaintance at sea?
Ling Xi looked over with doubt in her moon eyes.
"We have entered Nanyu Thousand Islands, and the Huangfu family is in the same situation." Nalan Xueyi's shallow voice came from behind.
He walked up to Ling Xiyue, wearing a snow coat that fluttered in the sea breeze, and his dark hair hanging upside down from his shawl was lifted up, a little messy, which made his cold and beautiful face appear a bit indescribable laziness.
Meilai.
Ling Xiyue looked over and saw a dark green color.
Like a pearl in the ocean, floating on the blue sea, shining quietly, it is an island.
On the island, there are steaming clouds and mist. It must have just experienced a heavy rain. The clouds and mist are like jade belts and dragons dancing around. The fog shadows are hazy and looming, giving it a mysterious color.
On this month-long day out at sea, I passed by many scattered islands and reef bunkers. This is also the largest island I have seen so far.
"Hi..." Su Bei, on the other hand, was bouncing up and down, waving happily to the people on the pier. The handsome young man looked familiar with the roads and was calling friends. At first glance, it was not his first time in this place.
.
Ling Xiyue's eyes quickly glanced at the island in front of her, "Should we stop here?" xdw8
She tilted her head and looked at Nalan Xueyi, "This doesn't look like an island with many people."
Therefore, it is even more unlikely that it is the place where the Huangfu family is located.
Nalan Xueyi only smiled and did not answer yet.
About a quarter of an hour later, the large ship they were on sailed into the pier, anchored and stopped, and the ship's planks were set up on the stone platform of the pier.
"Brother Xiaobei, brother Xiaobei!" A shirtless, tanned boy with short hair jumped up and greeted Su Bei, wishing he could fly on the ship, and the excitement in his brows was no less than that of Su Bei.
The young man has a straight face and looks very energetic.
"Ahhhh, Kano!" Su Bei rushed out of the boat immediately, hugged the young man and threw him to the ground.
The young man named Kano laughed out loud and was a little dissatisfied. He complained while laughing, "When you left last time, you said you would come and play with me soon. It's been almost two years. What a lie."
Man, you.”
"I'm here right now." Su Bei's face turned into a flower-like smile, "It's not like you don't know that the Snowy Land is really far away from here, and my young master can't leave, and I have to accompany him.
With my young master."
"Young Master Nalan is here too?" Kano smiled with a row of big white teeth, but didn't pay attention.
The two teenagers were playing around like two puppies having fun.
Ling Xiyue looked at it, shook her head slightly, and couldn't help but smile.
This Subei usually fights against everyone, big or small, even the elders of the Huangfu family. After all, he still has the mentality of a child. When he meets a friend he really makes friends with, he also
There is no difference between ordinary teenagers.
He is somewhat similar to Xiao Lang, he doesn't care about his identity, he only recognizes people.
If Su Bei hears this voice, he will definitely roll his eyes: It sounds like you are very big.
Speaking of which, Su Bei is already eighteen years old, and Ling Xiyue is only sixteen years old, despite all her plans.
"Young Master Nalan, long time no see." At this time, an old man in coir raincoat came forward and bowed to Nalan Xueyi. His unpretentious and peaceful voice also contained a bit of kindness and friendliness, which made people laugh.
It feels more comfortable to listen to.
Nalan Xueyi stepped off the boat, nodded to the old man and said, "Jia Lao."
In his usual indifferent tone, there was a little more respect for the old man, nobility and elegance.
"Young Master Nalan, this time I came a little early. I have to wait for a few days..." The old man in gray raincoat, with his back hunched, raised his head and smiled kindly at Nalan Xueyi.
.
But before he could finish his sentence, he saw the girl next to Nalan Xueyi.
The old man's voice paused and his eyes darkened.
And it was only at this time that Ling Xiyue could fully see the old man's face.
That face was that of an ordinary old man. He was estimated to be over seventy years old, probably because he had been at the seaside all year round. The traces of time were particularly deep and weather-beaten, and his eyes were like deep ditches in the strait.
Deep, mysterious, and bright.
When it fell on her, it actually gave people an invisible sense of oppression.
Ling Xiyue's almost immediate reaction was that she became vigilant.
This old man is so secretive that he is definitely not just an ordinary dock worker!
Even at this time, Ling Xiyue felt as if she was facing the two nobles of the Huangfu family in the deep mountains of Yunshan.
In fact, the skills between the two are probably not much different, right?
As soon as she entered the Huangfu family's sphere of influence, Ling Xiyue couldn't help but sigh. A master with such profound skills was hiding here, willing to be a ferry at the dock. The Huangfu family was really not simple.
An old man and a young man looked at each other.
The two looked at each other for a long time, and when they saw that Ling Xiyue's expression remained unchanged, the old man's eyes were filled with surprise, and he couldn't help but look at her twice more.
After just a few seconds of meeting each other, the old man's attention was completely transferred to Ling Xiyue. After sizing her up for a while, he finally couldn't help but spoke first, "Young Master Nalan, this is..."
"A friend."
Nalan Xueyi gave a brief introduction and did not intend to say more.
Ling Xiyue smiled, just like Nalan Xueyi did just now, and nodded to the old man with two simple words, "Jia Lao."
The smile on the girl's face was innocent and harmless.
At first glance, she looks like an ordinary girl, but she looks a little more beautiful.
Since Nalan Xueyi respected him so much, Ling Xiyue naturally couldn't lose her etiquette, let alone on someone else's territory.
Looking at the harmless smile on the girl's face, Jia Lao's dark and stern eyes flashed slightly, then he looked at Nalan Xueyi and said softly, "Young Master Nalan, what are you going to do on this trip?
