Above the turbid sea.
Dozens of gold-painted speedboats, surrounded by a large ship, were speeding on the sea.
The sea along the way remains calm and boring.
After several days of repairs, King Fu lived up to his reputation, with endless feasts and endless dancing, all extravagance that Lu Ran had never heard of.
Lu Ran was not polite. It was time to eat, drink, and take a look. After this, most of his originally weak body recovered, but his sleep was not good.
As soon as I fell asleep, it was as if I had entered the cabin again, and then ninety-nine pairs of eyes lit up one after another.
…
When I woke up again, it was already afternoon.
Waking up on a speeding boat.
The group set out early in the morning, following the instructions of the treasure "Four-faced Monkey", and headed south.
This small fleet is like a miniature version of the previous huge fleet. The flagship where King Fu and Gu Xing were located was only a hundred-man ship, while Lu Ran and the four brothers and sisters were placed on another small boat.
After setting off, the four teenagers stayed on the front deck the whole time, all in a daze eating the wind.
Although they have different thoughts, what they are actually thinking, or what they unconsciously recall over and over again, is the same thing.
It is the pattern made of flesh and blood in the golden cauldron.
If you look at the sky, the clouds in the sky will have this pattern. If you look at the sea, the ripples on the sea will have this pattern. If you just stare at the reflection on the guardrail, the reflection will still have this pattern.
It is and it is not, it is and it is not, you are in me, and my pattern is in me.
A pattern that cannot be remembered, but also cannot be forgotten.

After being silent for a long time, the strange purple-clad girl suddenly spoke up and said: "The sailing direction is always south. Is it possible that the most precious 'four-faced monkey' in the world is just Sinan?"
When he heard the four-faced monkey, Lu Ran, who had closed his eyes to rest in the cabin, slightly raised his eyes.
"That's absolutely not the case." The young man in green shirt also came back to his senses slightly, and mused: "This treasure requires so much effort, it must be the same as our trip. On the surface, it is said to be suppressing bandits, but it is noisy along the way. It seems that the Emperor's survey of the sky is completely hiding the truth. Don't forget, this fleet is also the Emperor's lifelong effort. How can it be easily exposed, and how can it be handed over the command at will..."
Ziyi girl nodded: "Well, it takes such human and material resources, that is, our little emperor, but it can be regarded as a wonderful plan. Now I am afraid that the rumors of all countries will not be full. At this moment, I just couldn't get over it. I thought that it took three hundred years to find the most precious treasure in the world, and it would take thirty years to refine just one awakening pill. However, the four white monkeys killed each other and killed each other in a matter of seconds. It’s a bit scary when you think about it.”
"That's right, it's really scary, but it is indeed recorded in "Diyi" that the four-faced monkeys are the luck of the four directions. If the four monkeys kill each other, the winner will get the luck of the world, and the road pointed by the winner - the Great Road to Heaven. "The girl in yellow, who had always been shy, nodded, then began to shake her head and preach, and she was actually a little cute.
"Is there anything else?" The other three people turned to look at her, which made her a little anxious, and her face turned red: "While Mr. Xu was giving lectures, the eldest brother went to practice swordsmanship, the fifth brother went to play, and the sixth brother went to play. My sister has never appeared before. There are only a few treasures in the world, so it’s not a secret at all!"
When the three of them heard this, they all nodded, and now they had some new understanding of this industry.
"So, Thirteenth Sister, has Mr. Xu ever told you what the so-called 'Tongtian Road' is?" the purple-clothed girl asked again, casting her eyes to the cabin not far away, which meant that there was an outsider, so don't reveal too much. .
"whispering sound."
Lu Ran saw through her at a glance and deliberately made a noise from the cabin.
However, the girl in yellow could not understand the meaning of the girl in purple. She just continued to explain seriously: "Mr. Xu did not explain this. The road to the sky is either a method of cultivating immortals, or there is some secret treasure that can reach the sky, or there is something else we can The beauty of not knowing.”
"I think the so-called wonderful thing is the literal meaning. I, Xia Ya, have been fighting against Zhennan for thousands of years and have been invincible. What I lack is some great luck." His Highness raised his hand to touch his chin and took the girl in yellow. if.
"That's what the big brother said. That's what I guess. The beauty of the four-faced monkey is that it can not only point out the location of great luck, but it should also guarantee that the person who gets the treasure will definitely get great luck."
As soon as the girl in yellow said these words, His Highness suddenly changed his face, his face turned red, and he let out a low roar.
"fart!"
The girl in purple and the boy in green saw this and hurriedly tried to smooth things over.
The young man in green shirt smiled and said: "Brother, please don't listen to Xiao Shisan's nonsense. He has become demented from studying all day long. Xiao Shisan, please make amends to big brother."
The girl in yellow didn't know what she said wrong. She felt very aggrieved and looked at the girl in purple.
Unexpectedly, the girl in purple also said: "Little Thirteen, please apologize to the eldest brother. The eldest brother is the emperor's eldest grandson, and he is the one who deserves great luck."
The girl in yellow suddenly realized it, but she didn't feel that she was wrong. She just whispered aggrievedly: "I didn't say that the great luck must be obtained by the little emperor's uncle..."
As he spoke, tears were about to slide down his red cheeks.
His Highness did not speak any more, but just hummed out of habit and took two steps forward, leaving everyone with a red figure behind him.
"hey-hey."
In the awkward atmosphere, Lu Ran smiled playfully and walked out of the cabin.
"This... is right. If His Highness Prince Fu is a person with great luck, then how can I also get some bullshit luck? After all, my blood is also in that cauldron."
"Is it possible that King Nafu and I can share great fortune?"
As soon as these words came out, the four of them were shocked.
The young man in green shirt looked at Lu Ran with complicated eyes, but he immediately understood what Lu Ran meant: "What this little brother said makes sense. This is obviously just Xiao Shisan's random thoughts. There is no such thing as great luck. After all, this Brother... is just a mortal."
What he meant was simply that Lu Ran was not worthy.
The girl in purple nodded her head in agreement.
The girl in yellow's eyes were dim with tears, but she saw a thin figure walking out of the cabin and looking at her with a smile.
This person named Lu Ran spoke for her for the second time.
In any case, she was only twelve years old after all, and she had someone to help her. The child felt even more aggrieved, and her tears couldn't be stopped. Big drops fell on the deck.
His Highness did not speak or look back, but his strange sword beeped twice.
Seeing this, the young man in green shirt had an idea and said: "Brother, let's make a bet. Let's all guess what is ahead, what is the road to the sky, where does it lead to, and whoever guesses correctly or has a similar answer, For the winner. How about that?”
"Okay, okay, the bet is the reward given by His Majesty the Emperor at the beginning of next year. Let me guess first, I guess, the 'Water Prison Pass' is ahead." The purple-clothed girl quickly agreed.
"You don't count. Who doesn't know that the front is the 'Shui Laoguan'? I guess there must be no luck in the front, and there will definitely be evil spirits." After all, His Highness is a young man, and his temperament is not that long, but he is still Turning his back to everyone, he refused to look back.
The girl in yellow wiped her tears and pouted: "I guess, I guess... there is... there is Xie Qiao in front of me! The great immortal I admire! I want to worship him as my teacher!"
"You think beautifully!"
"He is truly the stupidest little Thirteen!"
"With Xie Qiao, we all have to feed the fish here!"
"..."
While laughing, the young man in green shirt suddenly turned around, and the four brothers and sisters stopped with him. Following his gaze, they all looked at Lu Ran not far away.
At this moment, Lu Ran was looking at them with his head tilted, with an imperceptible sneer on his lips.
"Before I guess, I would like to ask this little brother to guess first." The eyes of the young man in green shirt suddenly changed, and his tone was no longer soft and cordial.
Lu Ran felt that this look was inexplicably familiar.
Without thinking much, he turned his head towards the sea.
Xiao Haizi, named Lu Ran, had bottomless eyes, like the dark bottom of a big ship. He shook his head, stretched out a hand, pointed in one direction, and said with some self-deprecation and some disappointment.
"You don't have to guess, there is an island in front of you, an island with nothing."
