Volume 19: Legend of Lu Xiaofeng Chapter 462: Huo's Ship
The weather was fine and the water was blue.
The violent weather is over.
A night passed and finally dawn came.
There is no such thing as severe bad weather that lasts forever. As long as you persist, you will eventually get through it.
"The wind does not last all morning, the rain does not last all day . Even the heaven and earth cannot last forever, let alone man?"
"So if you have experienced this storm, you should know that people should not be angry or sad for too long , and they cannot be angry or sad for too long."
The blue sea was rippling, slightly reflecting the sunlight, and two people were floating quietly on the sea.
Two living people!
One of them is Su Weiyun and the other is Minister He.
Anyone who has not seen this scene will never believe that someone can float safely and peacefully on the sea.
Moreover, Su Weiyun was still able to speak, and the previous words were spoken by him.
Su Weiyun could speak, but Minister He did not dare.
Minister He circulated his internal energy throughout his body, trying to make his body as light as possible and not let the energy leak out.
He didn't dare open his mouth, for fear that the air would leak out and he would sink into the sea.
If Su Weiyun hadn't used this magical skill of "inhaling into the abdomen, and breathing out like a turtle" to circulate Qi, I'm afraid the two of them would have died in this endless sea long ago.
Minister He followed Su Weiyun's instructions, circulated his internal energy and relaxed his breathing; at the same time, he pressed Su Weiyun's palm and borrowed his strength to just float above the sea without sinking.
Su Weiyun smiled and said, "Minister He, you don't have to worry. With our physical strength, it shouldn't be a problem to wait on the sea for at least two or three days."
"As long as there are passing ships nearby, I will gather my inner strength and shout out, and they will surely come to rescue us aboard."
Minister He could only smile bitterly and was speechless.
The huge storm threw them off the deck in an instant, and he didn't even have time to grab anything floating to save his life.
Su Weiyun, however, looked nonchalant and said, "In fact, if you practice using your true qi more, it will be of great benefit to your body movements."
"This skill is similar to the Qinggong of 'Stepping on the right foot with the left foot and ascending to the sky alone', but it also requires..."
He was talking to himself, and before he had finished his words, a small black dot appeared in the distance, probably a ship coming over.
Su Weiyun laughed and said, "It seems that our luck is finally good. If we don't wait for the boat in three days, I can still do something, but you can only feed the fish."
The two people floated silently with anticipation, waiting for the little black dot.
Gradually, the small black dot grew larger and its outline gradually emerged. It turned out to be a ship, and it was heading in the direction of Su Weiyun.
Su Weiyun finally saw the ship clearly. The ship was very large, much larger than the ship Su Weiyun had been on before.
I'm afraid that even people who often go out to sea rarely see such a huge ship.
There was a flagpole flying in the distance above the ship, with a big “Huo” character written on the flag.
Seeing this, Su Weiyun immediately shouted, "Is there anyone kind-hearted on the boat? Is there anyone who can come and rescue us?"
As he spoke, he let go of Minister He's hand and deliberately made a few flapping movements on the water, splashing water.
"Someone come and save us!"
When Minister He lost Su Weiyun's support, he immediately turned around, swam in the water, and tried to swim towards the big ship.
He is surprisingly good at swimming.
But two consecutive shouts failed to make the ship stop or turn, and no one even responded to them.
The waves are rippling and the sky is blue.
The sound echoed across the vast ocean.
Su Weiyun was confident that the sound was loud enough and anyone on the boat would definitely hear it.
But still no one on the boat responded.
Those people stood at the bow, looking at this side from afar, but no one intended to come and rescue them.
Su Weiyun pretended to be exhausted from struggling and about to sink into the sea: "Save us, and I will definitely repay you when we get to land. I'll give you five hundred taels of silver!"
Five hundred taels of silver was by no means a small amount for ordinary sailors; and even if they did not have the five hundred taels of silver, the sailors should have come to rescue them.
To save someone in danger is the implicit agreement among all major shipyards on the ocean.
But the sailors did not move.
"Come and save me!"
Seeing that those people still did not move, Su Weiyun finally could not bear it anymore. He slapped the sea surface with both hands, and with the force of counterattack, he suddenly broke free from the sea and jumped high into the sky.
Then he moved his toes lightly and quickly touched the surface of the sea. It seemed that he had used the "Swallow's Three Water Skips" skill to the extreme.
With just three taps, he had jumped more than thirty feet away.
But Su Weiyun still did not stop, and suddenly soared straight up, then maintained his body shape, like a wild goose flying far away, floating in the air, and flew slowly towards the big ship.
Although the flight was not very fast, the man was suspended in the air for more than sixty feet in one breath before his body gradually began to fall.
When his body fell completely, he landed right on the boat.
The sailors on the ship just stared at him, too surprised to speak.
These sailors have been sailing for many years and are not without experience, but today is the first time they have seen a "bird man" with such light skills.
They were looking at Su Weiyun, and Su Weiyun was also looking at them.
These people were big and small, old and young, male and female, but without exception, they were all wearing pure green clothes.
Su Weiyun asked: "Didn't you hear my call for help? Why didn't you come and rescue us?"
Saving people is certainly not a matter of course, but Su Weiyun is also very curious. For these people, rescuing two people onto the boat is just a piece of cake, and they can get 500 taels of silver for free, so why don't they do it?
The group of men in green looked at each other, but none of them dared to speak first.
Since Su Weiyun had demonstrated such god-like lightness skills, the people on the boat knew that this person should not be provoked.
"Please drive the boat over there and rescue my friend."
The men in blue dared not disobey. They lowered a small boat, and two of them paddled quickly over to rescue Minister He, who was still swimming hard in the sea.
Three people in a boat with two oars quickly returned.
Minister He finally got on the boat, soaking wet and breathing slightly.
Su Weiyun joked: "I didn't realize you were quite good at swimming."
Minister He stared and said, "Ever since I knew that Li Bai was drunk and drowned, I have been practicing water skills for a long time. I didn't expect it would come in handy."
The man in green listened to the conversation between the two and wanted to laugh, but couldn't quite do it.
Minister He waved his hand first and said, "Do you have any clothes ready? I'll buy you a set for a hundred taels of silver. It won't be taking advantage of you."
One of the old men in green was embarrassed and said , "I'm afraid not. Our clothes are like this. Only we can wear them. We can't give them to others."
Minister He frowned, walked over and took a closer look, then suddenly looked up at the flag and asked in surprise, "'Huo'? Huo Xiu? Are you from Qingyi Tower?"
"Your Excellency is right. We are from Qingyi Building."
The man saw that Minister He was wearing a very formal official uniform, so he called him "Sir".
Minister He asked, "Where is Huo Xiu? You are going to Wuming Island to pay your respects to Lord Gong Jiu, right?"
The man in green seemed to have been touched by something, his expression kept changing, and he finally replied, "Yes."
Minister He smiled and said, "Then it wasn't in vain that you saved us. I am familiar with this hero Su and the ninth prince Gong. Where is Huo Xiu? Take us to see him."
Of course he knew that "Blue-robed Tower Master" Huo Xiu was also a top-level master, but now with Su Weiyun by his side, he naturally had nothing to be afraid of.
But the man in green said something that surprised him: "Lord Huo Xiu has been trapped, it's..."
He told the whole story one by one.
It turned out that Huo Xiu was planning to annex the property left by a kingdom called "Jinpeng Dynasty", so he set up a big plan, but it was finally cracked by Lu Xiaofeng.
He himself is now locked in an iron cage, unable to escape, and suffers every day.
"Lu Xiaofeng..."
Su Weiyun murmured to himself, and suddenly he said: "But what does this have to do with me?"
"Is Qingyi Tower a righteous force?"
Su Weiyun asked.
Minister He shook his head and said, "No. Not only is he not upright, but he has done many bad things."
Su Weiyun announced: "Okay then. We will turn the ship around now and sail back to the Central Plains. We won't go to that broken nameless island. I will kill anyone who dares to disobey me!"
He turned his head and seemed to have seen the Central Plains.
