Seeing that she was dressed normally, Ling Xuanxin nodded his head.
Only, he felt that something was missing …
Ling Xingran had been reminiscing about this little girl's three-point attire and had actually forgotten about it. She wore a thick brocade robe, but it was only three-point, and she wasn't even wearing any pants or undergarments.
Only when Ling Tianqing followed him onto the boat, did the sea breeze blow her robes up. Only then did Ling Zhi realised that the young girl was standing on the boat with her delicate legs exposed to the wind.
It was useless to scold her at this moment. The soldiers were already on standby because if she were to return to the prefecture with her pants on, her morale would be slightly demoralized.
While she was crouching, Ling Xuanxuan stepped on a corner of her robe, so that she would not be blown away by the sea breeze.
Fortunately, the robe did not have a forked style underneath, but a skirt, or else everything would have been seen.
Ling Tian Qing was measuring the wind direction, and as expected, it was just as he had predicted the day before.
In the strong wind, she seemed to hear the man beside her sigh in anger.
There were no outsiders on this ship.
Other than Mo Yang's green shadow and Xiao Han Yanyu, there was also Wen Han and the elite soldiers that were brought out from the palace. Although they were all his men, Ling Chen was still very unhappy with them.
When Ling Tianqing was squatting down, the wind blew into her collar, causing it to open slightly, she could see everything clearly.
"If only there was a satellite navigation system." Ling Tianqing looked at Lan Yi's ship in the distance. On her left was the red tassel leading the team, and on her right was Lan Yi. They were divided into three teams, leading eight hundred soldiers, and two experienced fishermen.
"Without a satellite navigation system, it's good to have a phone …" Ling Qing picked up the compass as he mumbled to himself while looking at the blueprints he had drawn.
In the vast ocean, without any reference material or apparatus, it was indeed difficult to move even a single inch, with only the sun and the moon.
Ling Tian Qing muttered to himself as she personally controlled the rudder. Her appearance was that of a navigator.
This was a large ship that she had temporarily modified yesterday. Although many of the designs hadn't been added in yet, it barely met her requirements. At the very least, it could steer the ship easily even with very few people.
She had tied up her hair with her hair, which was tied behind her head like a Four Joy Ball. Because her hair was too long, the rest of her hair was also tidied up, fluttering in the wind. She didn't look like a woman, nor a man.
"Heard there was a sea monster, was there?" Looking at the ribbons on the mast, Ling Tian asked Yanyu, "Will those fishermen be eaten by the sea monsters?" How are the pirates fine? "
She recalled that the crown prince had also mentioned that life at sea was very difficult. She sighed with emotion. The Great Cheng Empire had abundant resources and the imperial city was bustling with life and peace.
"There will be sea monsters in the depths of the sea, but ordinary fishermen won't go too far, so very few people will encounter sea monsters." Yanyu replied, "The sea bandits are very familiar with the sea, so they know where is the forbidden area."
"Then you can't easily jump into the sea?" Ling Qing asked again.
"What for?" Ling Jingjing suddenly asked coldly.
The 'jumping into the sea' she was referring to definitely did not refer to suicide, because the 'vermillion pill' did not flare up.
"Swim …" Ling Tian Qing replied weakly as soon as he heard him.
"The Empress is a phoenix; she will not attract evil beings." Xiao Han said with a smile.
"What's that?" Ling Tian Qing suddenly rushed to the railing, holding one of his treasures – the simple telescope. Looking at the glittering items on the surface of the sea, he shouted in delight, "It's a goldfish! It's really a goldfish!"
According to the heavens, the goldfish was also a type of flying fish. Under the sun, they were like gold as they flew across the sea. They often lured others into thinking that a golden mountain had appeared in front of them …
This was a legendary fish from the heavens. It was said that the people that saw it had good luck and were able to soar to greatness.
"That... Did you see that? "Longtailed fish!" Ling Qing was dumbfounded as he held the binoculars. He even forgot that Ling Zui was still by his side, and could only sigh in shock.
A long line of jade-green waves appeared on the surface of the sea. Colourful patterns flashed across the surface of the sea.
"Ah, is that the bastard?" Ling Tian Qing was about to lean out and stare at the white balls floating on the sea, saying in shock, "It really is a gigantic bastard, I thought the description in the book was wrong. It's so big …" How was it born? "
How curious was she when Ling Jin had his forehead touched?
"Aiya, it's a bit of a yaw. Turn 15 degrees south." While Ling Qing was still shocked, she did not forget to look in Xiao Han's direction. She gave the binoculars to Xiao Han and rushed to Green Shadow's side, staring at him as she turned the rudder.
Wen Han stood at the stern of the boat indifferently, listening to the girl's melodious voice slowly become lively. His heart was slightly affected by the gentle yet sad tone.
"Did you see that? There's a small island ahead of us, let's slow down. " Ling Tian used his binoculars and finally saw a small black dot. Her state of mind immediately changed to one of nervousness and caution.
She didn't dare to be distracted at all when she reached the sea bandits' territory.
As they got closer to the island, Ling Tian felt that something was amiss … Why was there no ambush and no one saw it?
Could it be... Ambush?
Or was this an empty island?
Ling Qing started to feel uneasy as he watched the island get closer and closer.
As they were about to land, Ling Qing became more and more nervous. After all, she was the one who brought these thousand soldiers and guards here. If anything happened, her responsibility would be huge.
She gripped Xiao Han's hand tightly, looking at the island in front of her, her palm full of sweat.
The guards and elite soldiers beside her had already made their preparations. They surrounded her with full vigilance.
"Watch out for the boat." Ling Xuanxin suddenly said.
There was someone under the boat.
Before Ling Qing could regain his senses, the green figure had already reached out a hand, and a pill immediately dissolved as it fell into the water.
As for Lan Yi and the red tassel, they were also very careful and careful as they approached the island. As soon as they heard a strange sound coming from underwater, they immediately threw the specially made pills down. The water surface was poisonous, preventing attacks from underwater.
Compared to the sea bandits who were well-versed in water, it was obvious that once they went ashore, the fighting strength of this group of people would greatly increase.
Ling Xuexin stretched out his hand and pulled Ling Tian Qing into his arms, lifting her up into the air before bringing her to the shore of the island.
Following which, Mo Yang and Wen Han landed on the shore and observed their surroundings.
The other officers and soldiers landed on the shore one by one, leaving only a few who were better able to swim on the boats to guard them.
Ling Tian Qing was still worried. She took out a small bag of powder from her small cloth bag and sprinkled it on the surface of the sea.
These specially made medicinal powders could temporarily solidify into a medicinal film so that the pirates at the bottom of the sea wouldn't attack from the bottom and destroy their ship within four hours.
"Xiu." An arrow pierced through the air, and Ling Qing was still standing by the sea. The next moment, he was covered by a long robe and she could not see anything. She could only smell the familiar fragrance of the ambergris.
"Hold This King tightly, don't let go." Ling Xuanxin's low voice sounded in his ears.
Ling Tian Qing immediately hugged his waist, covering his head and face with his hands. He could only hear the sounds coming from outside, and was suddenly thrown into chaos.
There was the sound of swords and sabers, someone was shouting. In short, one could imagine a group of bandits rushing out.
It was a pity that Ling Tianqing could not see anything, and did not know how the outcome would turn out. She could only deduce that the situation was still within her control from the sound of Ling Cangxin's steady heartbeat.
Ling Tian Qing suddenly felt her body becoming lighter, as though she was riding a roller coaster. Her heart was beating up and down, and she had no choice but to hold Tyrant's waist tightly until the tip of her feet touched the ground before she heaved a sigh of relief.
Ling Xi had been pressing her head down with his hands before, and his wide sleeves were covering her entire body. Now that his hands had loosened and landed on her waist, Ling Tian Qing could turn around and take a look at her surroundings.
Just as she turned her head, she screamed out and subconsciously hugged Ling Chen tightly.
My God, where are they standing?
It was a high point on the precipitous cliff that overlooked the entire island. Moreover, it was a bare precipice. There was only one place to stand, so there was no need to be afraid of any kind of ambush.
Although Ling Tian Qing was not afraid of heights, he still felt as if he was falling down a cliff after being blown by the sea breeze. His heart was beating fast.
After a long while, she finally calmed down in Ling Xingran's arms. Grabbing the clothes at his waist, she slowly turned her head back and looked down.
The figures below had become sparse, but it was possible to distinguish between the officers and the pirates — for they wore different colors.
The situation looked good for them. No matter what, the officers and soldiers were often trained, and Ling Xuanxuan had met with the elite guards and soldiers from the Royal City. He could destroy a thousand troops by himself, and as long as he could get on the shore, that group of sea bandits would not be his match.
Ling Qing then looked to the other side. Indeed, there was a fertile land there, and an open space with houses built on it.
"What a Peach Blossom Origin." Ling Tian Qing suddenly said in a low voice.
"If I wasn't a sea thief, this place would be suitable for farming." Ling Jin looked at the whole island and replied, "It's a pity that we don't have enough people."
"Humans are always like this. It's fine if they don't get it, but once they get it, they will want more." Ling Qing couldn't help but sigh.
"You want more?" Ling Jin glanced at her delicate face and suddenly smiled.
"No, I'm a man of few demands." Ling Qing was blinded by his sinister smile as he immediately turned his head and said.
The sunlight shone down onto Ling Chen's tall body without any obstructions, causing Ling Tian Qing to suddenly think of something.
He was like a person standing at the highest point of the world, surrounded by no scenery, no people, all alone on the mountain peak, coldly looking at all things in the world. He was not afraid of loneliness, nor was he afraid of failure.
All living beings looked up at the foot of the mountain, just like ants.
Wen Han caught a glimpse of the two standing at the peak of the lone mountain. The purple clouds were being blown in by the wind, and their long black hair was fluttering in the wind, as if they were about to leave on the wind.
His heart had already been filled with killing intent when he was on the ship.
There was only a 1% chance of killing Ling Jin, so he didn't dare to take the risk.
Not only was it because of Ling Xiang, he had a few troublesome bodyguards, and Ling Xiang himself, so Wen Han could not tell how strong he was.
