Chapter 1625 I Believe the Imperial Master Will Not Abandon Me

The rainbow after the storm is always particularly beautiful.

The sky washed by water is blue and ethereal.

On October 19, the rainstorm stopped, the typhoon left, and the small Menshi Island returned to peace and tranquility. The storm destroyed many buildings on the island, including the woodshed and straw hut, which needed to be rebuilt, as well as the fishing ground at the bottom of the mountain. It was not until the flood receded that people could see the current situation of the fishing ground, which was like a ruin...

Post-disaster reconstruction requires the islanders to work together. At this time, the free boarders can finally leave.

While calculating which parts of their house tiles need to be repaired, the islanders can't wait to hint to these border navy soldiers, hoping that they will return home quickly.

General Lu shamelessly pretended not to understand. It was not that he didn't want to take people away, but he really couldn't leave.

When they went ashore, they moored the boat next to a big tree halfway up the mountain, but it was raining heavily and windy. After a few days, when they went to look for it now, not to mention the boat, the tree was gone.

Without the means of transportation, General Lu could only shamelessly stay at the islanders' house for a while, and rented a fishing boat from the islanders, and ordered two confidants to return to the camp for help.

Navy Bian and Prince Lin could not leave, but Liu Wei and Rong Leng could.

Four of the five boats were missing, and the only one left was Rong Leng's.

When they docked on the same day, Liu Wei went to pick up Rong Leng in person. After landing on the island, Liu Wei saw that everyone was so careless about docking the boat casually, so she kept her own boat in and stuck it in the crack of the mountainside.

Now the other four boats have drifted away, and only their boat is still intact.

General Lu looked at the Rong commander with envy as he packed his bags and said goodbye to the islanders with his family and left, and he was very jealous!

Prince Lin was just as jealous as him!

After a few days of rest, Prince Lin can now get out of bed, but he injured his foot when he was struck by lightning, and now he needs to use a cane to walk. This cane was used by the old man of Hei Niangniang. It took a lot of effort to dig it out from the cellar. It smells of old people and mold. Prince Lin doesn't want to use it, but if he doesn't use it, he will have to lie down. He doesn't want to, so he can only pinch his nose and stick it. Anyway, Prince Lin feels that all the sufferings of his life have been suffered in these ten days.

However, although Prince Lin looks like a ghost, he has not forgotten his treasure in his heart. Seeing that the national master is leaving, Prince Lin's eyes almost burn two holes in the national master.

The national master naturally remembered the "agreement" between the two. He secretly informed Prince Lin and promised that he would not tell Rong Leng the location of Dajiang County. He said that he would take these people around and wait for Prince Lin to pick him up by boat.

Prince Lin felt more comfortable, believing that the national master would not abandon him.

…

The gray-brown boat was soaked by rain, and although it was intact, it could not be used immediately. Liu Wei and others spent another three days repairing it, and finally set sail before the end of October.

Soon after the boat entered the sea, Liu Wei went on deck. She held rice paper and charcoal pencils, looked at the sea in the distance, and occasionally lowered her head to write and draw.

After a while, the national teacher came out with a red jade bead in his hand: "Take a look at this."

Liu Wei raised his eyes, glanced at the red jade bead, and frowned: "In the holy bowl?"

The national teacher nodded: "Look at what is engraved on it."

Liu Wei took it and shone it against the light. After judging for a while, he asked uncertainly: "A mountain?"

The national teacher said: "The holy bowl is made of ashes, and the jewels inlaid on it are the personal tokens of the saints who have guarded the holy bowl in successive generations. Each generation of saints is unique, and the symbols engraved on the tokens are also unique. I have seen all these jewels. Some are engraved with auspicious beasts and fierce beasts, and some are engraved with surnames and names. Only this one is engraved with the place of origin."

"Place of origin?" Liu Wei raised his eyebrows.

"This is Jiuji Mountain."

Liu Wei saw that there was indeed a small "nine" engraved on the back of the red jade bead.

"Where is Jiuji Mountain?"

"It is Dajiang County."

Liu Wei was stunned.

The national teacher said: "Thousands of years ago, the two rivers were still land. At that time, there was a famous group of mountains here, called Jiuji Mountain. Jiuji Mountain was towering into the clouds and stood here for a thousand years. Who would have thought that one day the river changed, the tide rose and surged, and Jiuji Mountain was submerged by the sea. The bottom of the mountain was flooded, and the mountainside became an island on the sea. Later, the Xianyan Kingdom was established, and the two rivers were under the jurisdiction of Xianyan. Jiuji Island began to be inhabited, and later, a city county was established, called Dajiang County."

When Liu Wei investigated the history of Dajiang County, she did not find this, and she could not help but remain silent.

The national teacher seemed to know what she was thinking, and said: "What I said is all recorded in unofficial history."

Liu Wei held the red jade bead and looked around, trying to find out something else.

The Imperial Master said, "When Dajiang County was first established, it was originally named Jiuji County, but the word 'jiu' means the return of all things to one, and the emperor is taboo. Therefore, the magistrate of Dajiang County at that time took the initiative to change the word Jiuji to Dajiang, and then Dajiang County was established."

Liu Wei turned his head to look at the Imperial Master, looking him up and down.

The Imperial Master frowned calmly and asked, "What are you doing?"

"I'm thinking, what are you thinking about?"

This was a bit confusing, and the Imperial Master was also a little confused.

Liu Wei laughed, crossed her arms, and said, "You know a lot of things. You know the unknown secrets of Xianyan Country. You believe in the cause and effect of gods and Buddhas, and you are even proficient in evil arts. But no matter how many skills you have, you never reveal them. In the capital, I explained the righteousness to you, coerced you, and lured you, but you kept your mouth shut. Rong Leng also told me that you rarely spoke and were indifferent all the way. But why do you take the initiative to find me and tell me these things now? I have two doubts now. First, what you said is false. You have a conspiracy and you are luring me into the trap. Second, what you said is true. You are interested in the ruins."

The last sentence, she said is an affirmative sentence, not a question.

The national teacher looked into Liu Wei's eyes. This woman has a pair of clear and bright eyes, which can see through people's hearts and is alert.

After a long time of getting along, I thought that the other party had begun to trust me, but at the critical moment, he only revealed half of the words, and she caught him accurately.

This is troublesome.

"Can't I just be kind?" The national teacher asked calmly.

Liu Wei shook her head, stuffed the red jade bead into his hand, and lowered her head to continue looking at the coordinate map in her hand. Since the other party was unwilling to confess and even planned to pretend to be nice to her, she had no time to mess around with him.

The national teacher frowned, squeezed the jade bead in his hand tighter, and said: "Liu Wei, what I said is all in your favor."

Liu Wei didn't even raise his head: "I believe it, but it's also in your favor, isn't it?"

"We can cooperate."
