Volume 19: Legend of Lu Xiaofeng Chapter 541: Three Great Formations
Countless red butterflies are flying around, and the fragrant wind and dew are floating.
Affectionate but seemingly heartless, just for the sake of flowers.
…
The fragrance is everywhere among the flowers.
There are colorful butterflies and bees, red and green, with dew still on them, and they are fragrant and beautiful.
The flowers here are in neat rows, as if someone comes to trim them regularly; the patterns they form are extremely complex and wonderful, which makes people dizzy, but also hides a sense of symmetrical beauty.
Su Weiyun didn't expect that Ding Xi brought them to the old man's flowerbed.
"The most dangerous place is the safest place! No one would have thought that we would come here to hide."
Ding Xi said so.
The garden and forbidden area among the flowers was originally the old man's garden.
People on the nameless island often only walk along the designed stone path, and dare not walk into the flowers and destroy the plants and trees.
Yang Zheng asked, "Could that mysterious old man also want to know this?"
Ding Xi said: "These petals may look ordinary, but they actually form a great array of thousands of flowers. If someone enters the array without understanding the mysteries of the array and the ways to do it, he or she will not be able to get out even if he or she walks for three days and three nights."
"So the old man would never have thought that we would come here to fall into his trap!"
Xiao Ma asked, "Brother Ding, do you know the formation here?"
Ding Xi said: "I have been on the Nameless Island for several years. Every day, in addition to practicing martial arts, I also studied how to break the formation, consulted ancient books, memorized the sea charts in my mind, and observed the mechanisms everywhere on the island, just to be able to escape one day!"
He is actually very smart and has put in a lot of effort to be able to find the island at this time.
Qiu Fengwu couldn't help but sigh as he faced the flowers of various colors, "This Ten Thousand Flowers Formation is really hard to decipher. I am quite familiar with formations, but facing this one, I have no idea at all!"
The five people talked in low voices among the flowers without worrying about being heard.
Because the "Hundred Flowers Bush" and the "Famous Palace" were originally the center of the Nameless Island, and now everyone on the Nameless Island is scattered around searching other places on the island, so this place has become an uninhabited place.
Su Weiyun sat cross-legged on the ground, practicing his internal energy all the time. At this moment, he asked, "When did you come? Are there only four of you?"
Ding Xi said: "When we heard that you were planning to go to Wuming Island again, we started preparing."
"Captain Yang happened to be here investigating a case, so we teamed up and gathered a large group of people at the Changqing Escort Agency, and headed towards the Nameless Island together."
They knew the sea route to the Nameless Island and headed directly for their destination; whereas Su Weiyun took a detour and came here via ferry.
Ding Xi said: "We originally calculated that we would arrive on the island at about the same time as you, but unfortunately I miscalculated by one day!"
The sea is unpredictable, the wind is unpredictable, and even an experienced sailor can sometimes miscalculate the sea time.
Su Weiyun sighed: "You are too reckless."
"Although it was easy for the four of you to come in, it will be extremely difficult for you to get out again!"
In fact, they were able to reach the island smoothly thanks to Su Weiyun.
If Su Weiyun hadn't attracted most of the attention of everyone on the Nameless Island, it would have been almost impossible for them to sneak onto the island.
Xiao Ma glared and said, "Who said that? We have carefully calculated the combat strength. I think there are only a few capable fighters on Wuming Island."
"You can handle the old man. Lu Xiaofeng should be able to beat Gong Jiu. Manor Master Qiu is also a Grandmaster . If we join forces, can we still not beat Jin Jiuling? As for the other Palace Master, there is someone to deal with him too!"
"who?"
"It's my father Baili Changqing, 'Little Zhuge of the Divine Fist' Deng Dinghou, and 'Overlord Spear' Miss Wang!"
Su Weiyun asked: "Are the three of them here too?"
Ding Xi said: "They are still on the boat and have not come to the shore because the island has been blocked. We are afraid of alerting the enemy, so only the four of us dived underwater, deliberately avoiding the sentries, and came ashore from a deserted place."
Su Weiyun thought about it again and again, then shook his head and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, it will be difficult for us and the escorts from Changqing Escort Agency to deal with these masters from Wuming Island!"
Ding Xi said, "It's okay. Before I set out to sea, I drew a detailed sea map to the nameless island and secretly asked someone to pass it to the Seven-clawed Phoenix of the Six Gates. I'm sure she will present this information to the emperor."
He thought it through very carefully and took into account many details.
"We will fight with the Nameless Island first and try our best to contain them. At most, we will wait for ten days, and reinforcements will arrive. By then, we can cooperate with the outside forces and wipe out Gong Jiu, the old man and others in one fell swoop!"
When Gong Jiu and the old man hear the news that the army is about to arrive, they will definitely leave the nameless island; at this time, as long as Ding Xi and others try their best to delay the old man and prevent them from leaving by boat, they will have a chance to keep them all on the island forever!
It is certainly not an easy task to hold back Gong Jiu and the old man at any time; even if you can prevent them from boarding the boat, as gods, they can even go into the sea in their physical bodies and travel far away to other places.
But with Su Weiyun on the Nameless Island, all kinds of miracles are likely to happen!
"It's a pity that you are injured, otherwise..."
Ding Xi felt a little regretful.
Su Weiyun suddenly asked, "The old man has been training disciples for so many years. Is it true that there are only these few people on the island?"
Ding Xi pondered for a while and replied, "As far as I know, most of the old man's forces are distributed in overseas islands. Some are in Japan, some are in Ryukyu, and some are even said to be in the far north where ice accumulates all year round."
"Nameless Island is just his favorite island, the most secluded island, and the one he put the most effort into."
…
The Nameless Island was the island that the old man put the most effort into.
According to Ding Xi, there are three famous formations on the Nameless Island. One of them is the "Wooden Man Formation" in the Liushui Attic, and the other is the "Ten Thousand Flowers Formation" where the five people are now.
There is also a most powerful and peerless formation, which seems to be inside the famous hall, hidden in a hard and cold secret room, kept secret and never shown to anyone.
On the entire nameless island, only the old man knows the secret, and even Gong Jiu has never seen the mystery.
It was already night.
The nights on the Nameless Island were not very cold, and Ding Xi and the others had come from undersea without any dry food. They could still pick fruits for food outside, but here, the five of them had to munch on flowers and plants to fill their stomachs.
Su Weiyun stayed up all night, meditating instead of resting, in the hope of recovering his strength faster.
The night gradually passed, and it was already the third day since the battle between Su Weiyun, the old man and Gong Jiu.
Just before dawn, Su Weiyun suddenly stood up and said, "We should go."
Xiao Ma was surprised and said, "Let's go? We..."
Su Weiyun said: "You don't know the old man. As soon as the morning comes and the sun rises, he will definitely come here to take care of his flowers."
"So we leave now, go find some food, and come back to hide after noon."
Xiao Ma asked, "How long will we keep hiding?"
Su Weiyun said: "Two days! Give me another two days, and I will be able to recover almost completely!"
"When that time comes, I will turn the world upside down again!"
