The Golden Age Chapter 7: King of the islands

The people in the village buried the corpses of Uncle Tu's gang in the village, and immediately packed them up.

Naturally, these people don’t have much gold and silver, and they have nothing more than clothing and livestock. There are seven or eight carts in the village. Altars, pots, and clothing are all moved to the carts. As for some farm tools and kitchen knives used at home, Take it with you.

Before dawn, every house was roughly cleaned up.

"Leaving home this time, I may not be able to return in a short time." Seeing that most of the villagers were packed up, Yuwen Chengchao walked to the old man: "Leaving two chickens in the village is also considered a sacrifice to the land god. Well, let the land **** bless you to come back soon."

The villagers are very in awe of the land **** who guards one side. I really hope that after leaving, the land **** can protect the houses in the village from damage. The old man and the villagers discussed and left two chickens in the village. Feeling that the chickens and ducks are in pairs, without Yu Wen Chengchao's words, they left two more ducks down, praying for the blessing of the earth gods and returning to the village as soon as possible.

Before dawn, Yuwen Chengchao escorted the villagers away with his men.

Qin Xiao and Sheyue saw the team go away in the grass, until they could no longer see them, they were relieved.

Qin Xiao cautiously carried Musk on his back and entered the village. He saw a wooden pole standing in front of a house. Four chickens and ducks were tied to the wooden pole by ropes. He seemed to be worried that the chickens and ducks would starve to death. Some grains were left in a wooden bucket.

"The eldest son is thoughtful." Qin Xiao smiled when he saw the four chickens and ducks: "Princess, this is food for us for these two days."

She Yue leaned on Qin Xiao's back, frowned when she saw the dirty chickens and ducks on Qin Xiao's back, but didn't say much.

She knows that if she thinks that the chicken and duck are too dirty, Qin Xiao is about to make fragrant chicken and duck meat. Would she be embarrassed to eat it?

This is the largest house in the village. Although it is simple, the owner obviously likes to be clean, or because he doesn’t know when he will return, he cleans the house clean, although it is empty, But it is also much more spacious.

The Tang people love home, even if they walk thousands of miles away, there seems to be an invisible rope in their heart, which will always tie that heart to the hometown.

"Although it is simple and not as magnificent as the palace, it is much more comfortable than the wilderness." Qin Xiao walked to the room on the left, carefully placed Musk on the wooden bed, and let her sit on the side of the bed.

It is obvious that the board bed is some years old, and the bedding has been taken away.

"Are you deliberately **** me off?" Sheyue sat by the window and waited for Qin Xiao to give Qin Xiao a glance: "What do you mean by mentioning the palace at this time?"

Qin Xiao smiled and said, "Isn't you worried that the princess will be wronged?" He stretched out his hand and patted on the board, shook his head and said, "It's too hard and it's uncomfortable to lie down. The eldest son remembered to leave food, but he forgot to leave the bedding. "

She Yue said lightly: "I won't sleep when I stay."

After all, they are noble golden branches and leaves, how can they sleep on the bedding that common people have slept on?

"I saw a pile of firewood on the edge of the village." Qin Xiao said: "Fortunately they didn't take the firewood away. The hay is very soft. I'll spread it for you later." Looking around, he said: "Let's You have to wait here for two days and wait until the eldest son sends a message. It’s a good time to take advantage of these two days to take care of your foot injury. You should take a good rest first, and I will see if they have left anything useful."

Mosk Moon is really tired at this time. In the past few days, after tossing down, her body has fallen apart. Not only the foot injury is not good, but the two long legs are also very sore. If it is in the palace, let The palace maid can also be relieved by thumping it, but now that there is no palace lady around, it is naturally impossible for Qin Xiao to help him beat the leg.

Since he carried himself on his back, the guy squirmed up and down twice along the way, and every time he moved, his chest would be squeezed on his back. In the eyes of Sheyue, Qin Xiao was deliberately taking advantage of this.

Musk Yue is not a girl who is ignorant and ignorant. In fact, she can understand whether Qin Xiao is a womanizer or not. After all, a man can only restrain his eager heart only when the tablet is erected. The **** of a man is not what it is. Too big a problem, but this kid dared to take advantage of his own head.

Fortunately, Qin Xiao didn't do anything too unusual.

Sheyue knows her own advantages, no matter her appearance or figure, she can naturally make all men in the world surrender to her skirts. Qin Xiao is in the time of youth and blood, and he is close to his body. Some normal reactions are really reasonable. Things in.

On the contrary, it's a strange thing to be physically attached to a beautiful beauty like myself, and to be able to have no ripples in his heart. Either the kid is not a man at all, or he is not attracted to him.

Strength.

"Good news." Qin Xiao turned around, returned to the house, and said with a smile: "I found salt in the village. I don't know who left in a hurry. I also left half an altar of sesame oil. Haha, I'm just There is no condiment for sorrow. Your Majesty, with salt and sesame oil, I will show you a good hand when I turn around."

She Yue thought there was some good news, but she hummed and her reaction was very calm.

"There is a pond next to the village." Qin Xiao said, "The water is clear. I saw there seemed to be fish in it. I'll go over and see if I can catch a few fish later, so I can make a soup for the princess. "

"Pond?" She Yue only got a hint of interest: "Is the water very clear?"

"It's very clear. I took two sips. It's delicious." Qin Xiao said: "That should be the biggest water source in the village, so it's well protected. Are you thirsty? I'll get you some. "Come over to get a water bag, She Yue shook her head and said: "Not thirsty." After hesitating, she finally asked: "Fetch me some water, I...I want to wash my face."

"The buckets in the village were taken away, only a few broken jars." Qin Xiao said: "Is it possible to use jars to hold water?"

Shu Yue thought for a while, then said: "No, you take me to the pond later, I will wash over there."

Naturally, she didn't want to wash her face.

After a few days, she felt extremely uncomfortable all over her body. She Yue felt that if she didn't wash it well, she might get moldy and smelly.

It’s just that it’s not easy to tell Qin Xiao directly. He lay down gently and said weakly, "I’m tired, sleep for a while, you go out first, and stay outside the house." Facing inside, legs slightly Curled up, Qin Xiao looked over from behind. Sheyue's posture was even more undulating, below her slender waist, because her legs curled up and her full buttocks held up her coarse cloth, forming a perfect full moon. Against the background of the thin waist, the contours of the hips are rounded and beautiful.

Qin Xiao immediately withdrew his gaze, thinking that the color in his heart was empty.

Out of the gate, the sun has risen.

Looking at the rising sun, Qin Xiao thought of Gu Baiyi's side, and didn't know where Gu Baiyi was at the moment.

Gu Baiyi is in Taihu Lake.

Taihu Lake has a radius of nearly a thousand miles, and there are more than 50 islands, large and small. Except for a small number of islands that are really not suitable for living, most of the islands have people living on them.

The smallest island can also have hundreds of households, while the largest Xishan Island has tens of thousands of people on the island all year round.

Taihu Lake is independent of the Jiangnan government and forms a separate system. Although it will use the rich aquatic products of Taihu Lake to do business with the people on the shore, it will abide by local laws after landing, but after launching, it must abide by the rules and regulations of Taihu Lake. .

Taihu Wang Linghu Xuan will delineate special fishing waters according to the size of the islands and the number of fishermen living there. They cannot enter other areas to fish. If there is a conflict, there will be special personnel to handle the dispute. , Once you violate the Taihu ban, you will get heavy penalties.

Each island, like a village, can move around each other, but Xishan Road is forbidden for most fishermen.

The residents of Xishan Island were the first group of fishermen to follow Linghuxuan and his sons, mainly residents around Taihu Lake. Back then, they also followed Linghu and his sons to fight against officers and soldiers. These people were descendants of Linghuxuan and were against Linghuxuan. Xuan is an extremely loyal group of people.

Xishan Island is the largest island in Taihu Lake with a huge area. The entire island is even much larger than Suzhou City.

The island's products are also very rich, and there is no shortage of restaurants, tea shops, shops and even casino bands.

There are more than 50 islands in Taihu Lake, 37 of which are inhabited by people, and Linghuxuan appointed an island owner on each island to manage the island’s major and minor affairs, every three months, The island owners will gather on Xishan Island to hold a meeting and report to Wang Linghuxuan of Taihu Lake on the situation on their islands.

It is difficult for ordinary people to see the King of Taihu Lake. In Taihu Lake, Linghuxuan is like a mythical existence.

Even the owners of the islands only meet the King of Taihu at the time of the meeting, which is rare in ordinary times.

But the King of Taihu doesn't stay on Xishan Island all the time.

The king of Taihu is very caring for the residents of all islands. You don’t know when he will suddenly board a certain island and inspect the situation on the island. If the islanders have any grievances and difficulties, the king of Taihu will solve them immediately , If any island owner is at fault, it is very likely that the king of Taihu will directly avoid it and activate a new island owner in accordance with public opinion.

So the people of the Taihu Islands are full of awe and love for the King of Taihu. Although Linghuxuan has no official status, the people of the 37th islands of Taihu Lake are all mentioning Linghuxuan.

Wang Zun said.

For them, Taihu Lake is a country in a country, a paradise.

Xishan Island has five landing piers, and each pier is heavily guarded. It is difficult for strangers to land on the island.

Gu Baiyi and Chen Zhitai are on Xishan Island right now.

Zhong Bufan took Gu Baiyi and others onto the island and arranged them in a large courtyard surrounded by bamboo forests. The courtyard was elegant and the layout was beautiful. The pavilions and rockeries had a unique style. It was hard to think of himself in it. It was in the so-called Taihu Pirate's Lair.

When Gu Baiyi and others stayed, it was already night, so they didn't see the King of Taihu right away.

Zhong Bufan settled down a few people without saying much. He went away with an extraordinary demeanor. Fortunately, someone else specially served him, prepared delicious food and clean clothes. Everyone fled for a few days. Settling down in this elegant yard, it is natural to have a good night's sleep after satiated and satiated.

Chen Zhitai cared very much about Yu Xuanwu. Early the next morning, he personally delivered the breakfast prepared on the island to Yu Xuanwu. Yu Xuanwu was naturally clear about Chen Zhitai’s intentions, but from beginning to end, he was very clear. You are polite, and always call Chen Zhitai "Big Brother Chen", but this kind of politeness makes Chen Zhitai feel very different. He always feels that the distance between the two is still very far, and it seems very difficult for the relationship to develop.

When I arrived in the backyard, I saw Gu Baiyi sitting in the pavilion and reading.

Gu Baiyi changed into a clean hemp clothes, but because of his temperament, even wearing hemp clothes, he still feels gentle and gentle.

"Master Gu, did the King of Taihu know that we were on the island?" Chen Zhitai walked over with respect: "We can be considerate if we didn't see us last night, why can't we come now?"

Up to now, Chen Zhitai actually couldn't understand why Taihu Pirates suddenly appeared when life and death were at stake yesterday?

Why did they lie in ambush in that piece of reed, and how did Gu Baiyi bring everyone there by coincidence?

He is not too stupid. He always thinks that Master Gu may have something to do with the Taihu Pirates.

Gu Baiyi didn't look at him either, just smiled faintly, and said, "Island Lord Linghu sent someone to save us. We are our benefactor. We must be grateful to him. He didn't see us, we are here. Wait, when he is finished, I will meet you naturally." Finally he glanced at Chen Zhitai and said with a smile: "Brother Chen is in a hurry to leave the island?"

"That's not true." Chen Zhitai smiled: "There is food and drink here, and the rebels can't fight here. I live here for a year and a half, and I don't care." He sighed and said:" I don’t know how Lao Geng is now. Did he arrive in Hangzhou?"

Gu Baiyi flipped through the book and said, "Everyone has their own chance. We arrived at Xishan Island. It is our chance. Brother Geng naturally also has the chance of Brother Geng. You don't have to worry too much." Randomly smiled and said: "But if Brother Geng knew you were thinking of him, he would be very grateful."

Chen Zhitai asked again: "Master Gu, where are Master Qin and Princess now, do you know?"

"I'm not a god, and I don't know how to fortunetelling." Gu Baiyi's expression is calm: "But Brother Qin is a blessed person, and the princess also has a noble energy to protect him. Both of them are extremely clever people. The queen mother will be a mob. , It should be more difficult to catch them than the sow to climb the tree."

"The sow goes up the tree?" Chen Zhitai blinked his eyes: "Why didn't the boar go up the tree?"

Gu Baiyi raised his head and stared at Chen Zhitai. After a while, he sighed: "If the princess hears this, your head may really be moving."

"Huh?" Chen Zhitai reacted: "Master Gu, I...I didn't mean the princess went up to the tree, I mean...the boar is the spouse of the sow, and the boar goes up the tree! "

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the voice coming from behind: "Bold, how can you be disrespectful to the princess? Don't let your head go?"

Chen Zhitai turned his head and saw two Dali Temple torture officers standing not far behind him, staring at him coldly.

At this time on the island, Gu Baiyi took Chen Zhitai and Yu Xuanwu, as well as three Dali Temple torture men. All three of them were Gu Baiyi’s subordinates. They happened to come from behind and heard Chen Zhitai talk about "Princess "Climb the tree", immediately reprimanded.

Just kidding, who is the princess?

How can the golden branches and leaves of the Tang Dynasty be discussed in private and slander the princess on the tree.

Chen Zhitai stared at the two Dali Temple torturers in a daze, suddenly raised his hand, and shook his mouth a few times, then left without saying a word, with a sad expression on his face.
