The fleet left Yingke Island, and there was a vast ocean in front of them. Wu Gen sat on the bow of the boat, looking at the waves coming towards him. Although he did not have the magnanimity of the sages who watched the sea surge, wrote books, and sang songs to express their aspirations, his mind was much broader, and a different meaning came to his heart.
Finally embarked on the road home. Although there is still a long way to go back to Beizhou, it is the first step after all.
On the sea, due to a rain at night, a colorful rainbow appeared on the sea in the distance, like a ring woven from a bouquet of flowers, embellished on the blue skirt of the sky.
Several seabirds hovered around the ship, curiously looking at the giant thing beneath them. Such wonderful scenery makes this trip to the sea less like a war and more like a long trip across the sea.
At the stern of the ship, Ji Chenming was looking in the direction of Yingke Island with a somewhat complicated expression. Yesterday, I met Gu Yangsi and saw how well-behaved and gentle Wu Gen was. Wu Gen's jaw dropped. It turned out that Ji Chenming, who had always been ruthless and bold, could be so well-behaved.
Judging from the conversation between the two brothers, Ji Chenming was quite in awe of his brother. As expected, one thing is the best thing at a time. There has never been a truly fearless person in the world.
After a while, Ji Chenming suddenly came over and bowed to Wu Gen, "Master, I don't want to stay in Lingyun Baqi any more. Please assign some specific duties in the army. It's hard and tiring." Everything works."
Wu Gen looked at the other party with emotion. He thought it was because of the teachings he received from his eldest brother this time that he came up with this idea, "I originally thought of waiting a few more years for you to grow up with Niu Chao, Xia Chu and others. Then assign specific tasks.
Since you brought it up, that's all, go and find Yang Houzheng, work at Baishui Terrace first, and after some time, learn some military strategies from Hu Sima. Learn more when you are young and decide on specific responsibilities when you grow older. "
"I obey my orders." Ji Chenming bowed respectfully and turned around to find Yang Zheng.
"Gu Jiayi, you are crazy. You still want to come out to do things. Let's talk about it when you change your bedwetting habit." Niu Chao's head stuck out from the cabin next to him and sneered at Ji Chenming.
Ji Chenming glanced at Niu Chao, and for the first time did not refute, and left briskly.
"Is he stupid?" Niu Chao, who was used to being noisy, looked at Ji Chenming's back in surprise, a little unbelievable.
"Niu Chao, stop wandering around all day and become a corps commander in the Baoxiang Army. From now on, the lives of your subordinates will be in your hands, and there will be military law to control them. If you make a mistake, I will also Don't be partial, just do it for yourself." Wu Gen glanced at Niu Chao, turned around and walked towards the ship building.
"Wu, I don't..." Niu Chao jumped up when he heard this, but after running a few steps, he stopped, squatted on the ground and lamented, "Gu Jiayi is gone too, I am alone. It’s not interesting, just go.”
The fleet passed through the Fire Thunder Cloud, stopped briefly in the Sea of Blood, and then headed west. Half a month later, the shadow of Pearl Island has faintly appeared on the sea level.
Going further, we could already see some weird-looking ships sailing on the sea. When we saw the five huge ships of the Fearless Army, we were so scared that we hid far away.
These people were all pirates, and they all saw that only the Divine Religion could build such a magnificent warship. If you are used to being a thief, you will naturally not dare to provoke him easily.
Looking at the pirate ship escaping hastily, Wu Gen smiled slightly at Yang Zheng beside him, "The fleet should not be too ostentatious, or you and I should go to the island to explore the island without any troops like before."
"You can do anything you want." Yang Zheng was also quite moved. After not seeing each other for many years, and now coming with a large army, there is always a bit of a bad taste in returning home in fine clothes, pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger.
"Zhuo Ke, let Ran Peng rob a pirate ship." Wu Gen turned around and ordered. Pearl Island was also the place where he rescued Zhuo Ke. After revisiting his old place, he felt a lot more relaxed.
"Yes." Although Zhuo Ke didn't want Wu Gen to take risks alone, he still asked the messenger to send a message to Ran Peng behind him.
Soon a warship sailed out quickly and stopped a smaller pirate ship. Without much effort, the ship fell into the hands of the Fearless Army.
"We will go to the island to explore first. Zhuo Ke leads his troops to station here. All troops must obey his orders." Wu Gen gave the order and jumped onto the pirate ship with Bao Xiang and Yang Zheng. Needless to say, Baoxiang
, How could I shrink on the boat after hearing such interesting things?
Fortunately, Shui Congyue or Chu Xi were not present, otherwise Wu Gen would definitely be scolded. The commander-in-chief of the first army and the commander-in-chief of infantry warfare just abandoned their troops and wandered around. What a ridiculous thing they did.
When we arrived at Pearl Island, the scenery here remained the same, with buildings and pavilions standing shoulder to shoulder. Walking on the streets paved with black stone slabs, Wu Gen introduced Baoxiang's feats of that year as he walked.
"Hey, gentlemen, the fishy smell of sea is so strong on your body. It seems that you have spent a lot of time in the sea. Why don't you go to my Ruoshui Tower to have a glass of water and wine to relieve your fatigue, and let the girls sing a song to warm up your body." Tian Tian A greasy voice came, and behind Wu Gen, a middle-aged woman in cool clothes walked over, twisting her soft and boneless waist and waving a handkerchief.
After so many years, it still smells like this. Wu Gen chuckled and said, "Aying, we are very expensive, I'm afraid you can't afford it."
"You damn ghost, you actually know my name." The woman came closer, looked at Wu Gen carefully, then turned to look at Yang Zheng, "Wu Gen, it turns out it's you."
As he said this, the Ruoshuilou madam took a step back and said, "After living outside for so many years, you are still so poor. Chad, he was beaten out by a shepherd and came to my Tianya Gate."
Wu Gen gestured to Yang Zheng, who turned his hand and a gold ingot appeared in his palm, and he threw it to Aying.
Aying quickly stretched out her hand to catch it, put the gold ingot into her mouth and took a bite. She suddenly smiled and said, "You two seem to be prosperous. Come on, I will be your host today. Please have a drink."
"That's not necessary. Could you please A-ying to take us for a walk on the island?" Wu Gen made a gesture of invitation. He hadn't returned for many years, but he wanted to hear what the situation was like on the island.
"Okay, this saves money." Aying became particularly talkative after winning the gold, and took the three of them for a walk around the island.
"Shortly after you left, the Divine Cult also sent people here. They also set up a temple on the island and sent a priest to stay here." The four of them talked while walking. Aying was quite talkative today and introduced her carefully. Looking at the situation on the island, "Well, that's where the temple is."
Wu Gen followed A Ying's gesture and couldn't help but his eyelids twitched. The temple was located in Qin Jian's private residence where he had lived. The scenery there was quite beautiful. No wonder it was taken away by others.
"Then Qin Jian and Su Zi were both named priests." Wu Gen asked curiously.
"Forget it, because of the death of Ke Jiao, Su Zi from Suo Yue Tower, and our sect master were not conferred as priests. They were just given the title of servant of the gods." Aying curled her lips. With an angry look on his face, he said, "In the past two years, the relationship between Tianyamen and Suoyue Tower has become increasingly tense. There are no big fights, but small fights. I guess it's all the fault of the temple priest Pan."
"What kind of cultivation is this Priest Pan? How do you call him? He has been on the island recently." Yang Zheng asked from the side, gently touching his belt with his hand.
"The cultivation level of the Four Realms is called Pan Zhenjun, and the name is so girly." Aying said disdainfully, and suddenly turned to look at Wu Gen, with a look of surprise on her face, "My dear, Wu Gen, you have just improved your level of cultivation, right?" , even I can’t see the realm anymore.”
"Begging for food on the shepherd's territory, if you don't have the ability to protect yourself, I'm afraid I'll be eaten dry by others." Wu Gen sighed, looking like he couldn't bear to look back on the past.
"This man is..." Aying turned to look at Baoxiang. From just now, her eyes had glanced at Baoxiang's bulging chest from time to time, with a hint of fire rising in her eyes.
"This is my brother." Wu Gen intentionally or unintentionally stood between Baoxiang and Aying, deliberately puffing up his chest, "Qin Jian is on the island."
"He went out to sea to do a small business, and he should be back today." Aying kept looking around Wu Gen, looking at Baoxiang who was blocked behind him.
"Ouch." Wu Gen was pushed away by Baoxiang, who stood in front of Aying and twitched his well-developed chest muscles twice proudly.
"Let's go to the temple and have a look." Seeing the flirtatious couple, Wu Gen walked towards the temple angrily.
"What are you going to do?" Aying's eyes became cold. Her instinct made her feel that something was going to happen today, "Don't touch that priest. Although he is only one person here, there is an entire religious cult behind him. We have to
Can't afford the crime. If something happens to him here, the entire Tianya Sect will be buried with him.
Humph, I originally thought you could still make a name for yourself in Kuntian Continent, but I didn’t want to struggle for a long time and still end up like this. The god’s religion can drown you dozens or hundreds of times just by spitting. "
"We are just going to visit the priest. There are only three of us. How dare we be disrespectful to the divine religion." Wu Gen glanced at Yang Zheng with a smile, and strode towards the temple regardless of Aying's obstruction.
The closer you get to the temple, the fewer people are around. It is not a very big island, but there is no one around the temple for nearly a thousand steps.
The majestic and gorgeous temple stands on the mountain. The yellow glazed hall is located on a white jade stone base, and the steps are covered with gold bricks, making the temple look even more magnificent.
Just as Wu Gen was about to step forward, two tall men with colorful arms jumped out, "Stand back, the temple is an important place and no one is allowed to enter."
Wu Gen's face couldn't help but tremble. Looking at the postures of these two people and the smell of blood hitting their faces, he knew that they were not from the religious sect, but the followers that Priest Pan had found locally.
Just as Baoxiang was about to step forward, he was stopped by Wu Gen. He winked at Yang Zheng and pointed at the flow of people inquiring in the distance.
Yang Zheng took out two ingots of gold like a magic trick and stuffed them into their hands calmly, "Two divine envoys, we are from overseas and have never seen the temple before. We would like to visit the priest, please help us."
The two big men looked at the four of them with disdain, their expressions less fierce, but they still refused to get out of the way.
Yang Zheng was slightly surprised, but he quickly reacted, took out two thorn jade coins, flicked his fingers, and fell lightly into their sleeves.
Finally, a smile appeared on their faces, "Wait, let us report to the priest."
One of them went inside first to report. After a while, that person came out and took Wu Gen and others into the temple.
Entering the temple, you will find carved beams and painted pillars, various gems, gold and jade inlaid in it, gleaming murals and red gauze tents with tassels hanging down, which makes people dizzy. There is nothing else in the center of the temple, just a group of golden lines like flames.
Wu Gen swallowed, turned around and asked in a low voice, "Yang Zheng, are all temples so luxurious?"
Yang Zheng naturally knew what Wu Gen was thinking, and couldn't help but laugh and said, "Of course, the temple gathers the wealth of a city and a country, so whoever can become a priest is not a wealthy prince. It's just that this place is located on a desert island and looks shabby. A lot."
"Okay, okay. It's much easier now. Someone has collected the money for us in advance, which saves us a lot of trouble." Wu Gen said three good words in a row, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the two temple guards in front.
"Who, don't move." A guard scolded Baoxiang who was trying to break off a jade bead. The latter grinned and his eyes were full of stars.
At this moment, an old man with a long beard and an immortal spirit walked out.
"Priest, we have arrived." The two guards quickly saluted the old man.
