Chapter 107: .Unexpected reunion

The two were separated on the side of the rock, only a few meters apart, but they didn't say a word, only the drums, which sounded like anxiously urging waves, kept beating on the deserted beach.
Shun was still staring at his as far away as his hand. The sky was just shining. He couldn't even see the joints of the opponent's fingers, but his sharp gaze seemed to pass through his hands and grasp the hidden secrets. I don’t know how long it took, that hand finally trembled and opened slowly. He also moved his heart slightly, holding his breath, and saw a bottle of golden potion in the palm of the gun guard—it was that bottle. The missing constant potion.
His heart sank, his eyes shifted, facing the almost dull green pupils, the thought in his mind suddenly changed: It is medicine...Where did he get another bottle? Louis gave it? Could it be that the box before was also a gift from the old butler?
His mind was full of doubts, and he was even more angry when he deliberately concealed his companions, and asked straightforwardly: "Is this Louis butler giving you?"
I don’t know how much he heard just now, but he didn’t dare to answer. The prince only pretended that he acquiesced, and became more angry. He couldn’t help asking again and again: "He gave you those before? He gave you medicine for no reason. What? Why are you hiding from me?"
He pressed his anger and stared at the wood-cut stiff face, wanting a reasonable explanation, but when the light at the end of the sky gradually began to shine, the gun guard still stood and pressed his mouth in the wind and said nothing. He finally lost his patience, turned around with a grimace, and walked towards the cave with a full of confusion.
He was not good at lying as far as he could, and for a while, he couldn't think of any excuses. When he saw him walking forward, he involuntarily clenched the bottle of potion and followed behind. He didn't speak or hinder, but kept a little distance. Before, I arrived outside the cave in a flash.
The two companions in the cave were still sitting quietly by the fire, but the old housekeeper did not know when he had returned, and was busy hiding by the pot rack in the shelter. There was a bit of spiciness in the air, mixed with a touch of meat, and it smelled a little pungent. I didn't know what was being cooked in the pot.
Shun stopped at the entrance of the cave and looked at the old man’s curved back. He hesitated, as if he had something to say, but the old butler had already noticed their arrival, and smiled without looking back: "Your Majesty sits for a while, and the soup will be ready soon. , The old man doesn’t come to the South Island often, and making some chowder is the flavor of his hometown, don’t dislike it."
The prince was silent for a long time, and didn't know whether to mention it or not. In the end, he didn't ask, he just replied "Thank you" with his throat, and then dropped his head into the hole.
He didn't keep up as far as he could, and stood still looking at the old housekeeper in a daze. The old man looked back and saw him look blank, suddenly his heart was wrong, and when he thought of the prince's indifferent attitude, he naturally had some guesses, and he couldn't help but eat the spoon in his hand.
Was it discovered when I was speaking? It can't be... he was surprised for a while, and then winked at his young master, but as far as possible, it was in the confusion of thoughts, how could there be any reaction back to him. In desperation, he could only think of the reason while stirring the soup pot, but before long, there was footsteps behind him, and the prince led the two companions out of the cave.
"I'll go to the south to see..." Shun quietly explained to the old man, turning his head and staring as far as he could. After waiting for a few seconds, he still got nothing. He didn't care about it anymore, and hurried to the coast.
"Old man, put more spicy!" After the female monk's divine power resumed operation, the cracks on her face had long since healed, but she was still in a bad mood. She called out a request to the old man, and because of the prince's actions just now, she took a strange glance as far as she could. , And followed the pace without much thought. The inspector who walked at the end passed by silently with his head down, without a word, as if he didn't care about anything.
Seeing as far as possible when his companions left, he finally reacted. He turned and was about to chase, but the old butler grabbed his hand.
"What's the matter?" He lowered his voice as much as possible, eager to ask. But Jin Yuan did not answer, just opened the palm of his hand to show him the bottle of constant potion, and then pulled back and followed the group, leaving the old man on the spot in a daze, speechless for a long while.
When the Gun Guard rushed to the beach, Miss Ling had summoned the giant wave and was about to leave, and when she saw him, she waved him around the water belt and rushed to the southern coast together. The speed of the huge waves is not slow, and after turning out of the corner, a few people can see the noisy chaotic beach from a distance.
The South Island sailors have all awakened from a coma at this moment, and they are arguing loudly outside the coconut forest. From time to time, there are figures running in and out of the forest, seeming to be passing things. The giant puppets with glowing chests, blood-eyed monsters, and the red mist that blocked the way out, all disappeared without a trace at this time, leaving only the dew in the forest where the stars flashed in the morning light.
Although the front seemed safe, Shun would definitely investigate it more carefully if he followed normalcy, but he was confused right now, he was immersed in the conjecture about concealing things as far as he could, and he did not give an order for a while. Fortunately, he did his duty. The investigator issued an alarm in advance.
"Those with power...high-level...under the sea." He spit out a few words while shaking his lips, and returned to a rigid state without turning his head.
"Slow down." Hearing this reminder, the prince finally came back to his senses. He whispered and concealed the figures of a few people, leaving only the flying waves still rushing to the shore. Everyone approached the shore with the surge, away from the group of mortal sailors, quietly hiding behind a rock, waiting for the arrival of the uninvited guests.
Not long after, I saw a slight wave on the sea in the distance. A strange ship resembling a ray jumped out of the water with a scream. Two flat crawlers turned up underneath the ship, and it fell on the muddy shallows. He walked on the ground and stopped quickly after a spin. The sailors outside the coconut grove naturally noticed this scene, and they immediately stood up and dodged in the forest as if they were approaching enemies. After a short while, the coast became empty.
The prince and his party were still half-stepping, and seeing the side door of the strange ship opened, two figures of almost the same height jumped out, both in blue uniforms and caps, looking like southern navy officers. The sailors hiding in the coconut grove saw the two blue military uniforms, it was as if they had met their relatives after the disaster, they were so excited that they could not restrain themselves, and they all gushed out from every corner, surrounding the fish-like strange boat.
The arguing noise sounded again, and the prince couldn't figure out who the person was. He turned his head back and made a gesture, and slowly walked towards the crowd under the cover of their voices, and gradually he heard clearly.
"...Take us along? Sir?"
"Sir, do you still have supplies? Everyone is almost too hungry..."
"Sir! When will the support ship arrive?"
"Sir..."
"Don't quarrel!" With a clear shout, like a cloud-piercing arrow, all of the people's urgent thoughts were choked in their throats, unable to spit out and swallow.
Saiker squinted his eyes and scanned the crowd with an uncomfortable look, his stomach full of grievances and nowhere to vent. He exhausted the last bit of supernatural power and took the shadow of his companion back into the ship. He was paralyzed on the ground for a long time before regaining some strength. He thought he could finally retreat. Who knows that this guy who didn't know the wrong way was going to rescue these sailors. It really makes him itchy.
"Please be quiet first, everyone..." Verut took off the imitation colonel's cap, and yelled his companion who was still gloomy behind him. He looked around the panic and anxious eyes in front of him, and suddenly competed. , Asked the highest-ranked major present, "How many people do you have left?"
"Report sir..." The major wiped the sweat from his forehead, saluted a modest military salute, and replied, "including the foreign crew, there are 64 people, 7 seriously injured, and 11 people. Minor injuries, and... 23 people were sacrificed." There was another moment of silence outside the coconut forest, leaving only the officer's rapid gasp, which was rolling with the wave.
Verut lowered his head for a while and did not speak. I am afraid that many of these casualties were caused by him when he fled the battleship... Although it was helpless, he did not want to lightly expose it, but the most important thing right now, Or how to arrange everyone to evacuate. The 64 sailors are absolutely unbearable for the "Dambu", which was originally used as a covert operation. However, time is tight, and he does not know whether there will be another change in the next moment, and how to take people away as soon as possible. ?
Several plans flashed in his mind, squeezed his military cap and was about to ask again, suddenly his eyebrows twitched, and he suddenly turned his head to look into the distance. He saw a pair of red pupils flashing silver light, and instantly penetrated the prince's illusion disguise, and the four groups of purple, white, blue, and gray pulsating divine powers could be seen.
"There is an ambush!" He snorted, and immediately pulled his companion back to the side door of the cabin. The group of sailors was completely unknown, but they still held weapons such as swords, sticks and short spears they were carrying, and followed him subconsciously, suddenly a large area of ​​the beach in front of them was empty.
Seeing where his whereabouts were revealed, Shun was slightly stunned, but he didn't understand what had gone wrong. Although he hadn't seen the two officers, but when he heard the voice, he naturally guessed that the person was the leader of the assassin. He only thought that the other party was here to remove the roots, and when he was furious, he removed his disguise and shouted: "Virut Krono, do you think you can escape now?"
Velut's footsteps suddenly stagnated. It was actually the prince Takiguni! ? Shouldn't he have left long ago? Why will you come back? He turned his head quickly and saw that the successor of Chuguo came stepping in black, with blood stains all over his incomplete cloak, and his ponytail hair was also slightly messy. He looked a little embarrassed, but his aura seemed to grow stronger. Strong. Next to him, there is naturally the green-haired white-clothed guard, still looking dull at this moment, and there is a woman in red that he has never seen before, and the rest is a black robe inspector, but it seems that one person is missing... …
He took this scene into his mind while breathing, but he didn't answer, grabbing his friend who had just seen him as far away as he was flushed, and got back into the cabin as soon as he bent over. He strode into the command room with Seker's neck and made an immediate gesture to Uncle Qi before he stood in front of the glass window, smiled and greeted the four of them: "Good morning, your highness, really I didn't expect to meet you here."
Shun was unable to catch up for a while, so he led the crowd to stop at the shore more than ten meters away from the ship, glanced at the group of panicked sailors behind the ship, and then cautiously glanced at the sea before coldly snorting: "You can't kill, are you planning to come back to buy people's hearts?"
The sailors got a little commotion because of these words, the major officer saw that the situation was not good, and immediately waved his arms and shouted: "Everyone, don't fall into their tricks to instigate discord! Don't forget who we are here. At this point! Don’t forget who destroyed our warship!"
There were a few roars in the crowd. Seeing that the crowd was excited, Virut had to soothe the prince a few loudly. He turned his head and smiled and said to the prince: "His Royal Highness, believe it or not, I still said that: I never wanted to oppose His Highness, so why do you always draw your swords at you?"
How could Shun take care of this kind of nonsense, turned her head and cast a wink at the female monk. She lifted her right hand, and the blue light flashed, and several whirlwinds of water suddenly rolled up on the coast, sweeping the sea around the strange ship. , Leaving a large slab of rock with potholes. He didn't hesitate even more, with a flash of purple light in his eyes, and rows of giant puppets were immediately drilled out of the sea outside the rock. The sailors shivered and stuck to the back of the armor, and successfully blocked the opponent's retreat. .
He seized this moment and flew forward with a long knife and was about to test the hardness of the glass window. Unexpectedly, there was a burst of fire at the beginning, and several rows of gun holes suddenly appeared at the front of the strange ship, continuously firing bullets. Of gunpowder.
"Be careful!" He whispered as far as he could. He rolled over with a calm face, and the familiar space shield appeared in front of him. Bullets hit the shield like a rain of beans, exploding with a crackling noise. It's always hard to get half a point.
After a few breaths, the gunfire stopped again, and Virut's calm and gentle voice came from the gunpowder again: "His Royal Highness, since I can come here, I am naturally confident to leave, I'm afraid you can't stop me. "
The prince squeezed the handle of the sword and looked at the strange ship that restarted its tracks. He just frowned. The group of sailors around the ship saw that the giant puppets on the sea in front of the ship gathered more and more, and they shouted: "Sir, what can we do? Do?" "Sir, take us with you!" "Sir! Don't leave us alone!"
The inside of the boat was quiet, and Velut stood in front of the window before thinking about how to comfort them, but Shun did not miss the opportunity to make a few more gestures to the monk. The water whirlwind blew back immediately, forming a circular wall of water to gather the crowd. Besieged inside. The wall of water was getting higher and higher, creating an illusion that it was about to be overwhelmed, and the sailors were frightened and couldn't help crying.
"Don't make any noise!" Virut was unable to concentrate because of the noise outside the window. He yelled, and then sighed and said frankly to the prince, "Your Highness, I really can't take them with me at this moment, but I If you want to leave, you can't stop it...what conditions do you have?
Shun waved his hand to disperse the giant puppet illusion, watching the sailors crowded around the strange ship. He didn't expect that the assassin leader really wanted to protect these mortals. He was a little surprised. He glanced back and looked as far away as if he were calm and calm. After a few thoughts, he whispered back: "Come out and talk...just you Me." He took the knife away, without looking at other people, turned and headed towards the coconut grove.
The side door of the strange ship opened again, and Virut glared at Saiker who was about to follow him regardless, and then he whispered in his ear before closing the door and making a soothing gesture to the sailors. Following the black figure silently walked into the forest.
From the highest point of the coconut grove, you can overlook the ruins of the fishing village. Under the gradually shining morning sun, Shun can clearly see the huge sinkhole that is still filled with sea water. He silently leaned under the coconut tree, clutching the handle of the knife, fixedly looking at the deep pool of water, until the footsteps came from behind, he pointed to the front and asked softly: "Have you been there?"
"...Morritini." Verutt seemed to stand beside him unsuspectingly, looking at the pool of water, with sadness flashing in his eyes, "I passed by when I returned to the island."
"Really..." The prince suddenly turned his head and stared at the red pupils, and slowly said, "I have to admit, Krono, I underestimate you every time..."
"His Royal Highness, I have already said it, I don't know..."
"I know that's not you..." Shun interrupted him unceremoniously, "No matter if I am alive or dead this time, everyone will know that I am here because of you, and deliberately turned myself into a suspect...I I believe you are not so stupid."
"...Thank you for your trust." Virut raised his eyebrows and responded lightly, just as he hadn't heard his sarcasm.
"Don't make a mistake, Krono, I'm not shook hands with you to make peace." The prince's tone was even more fierce. "The blood-eyed monsters are almost the same as those encountered in the old part of Langqiao Port, even though You are not the mastermind, and you have nothing to do with this matter!"
"Blood-eyed monster?" Verut recalled the blood-clothed people he saw on the roof of the old building before leaving the capital, and his heart shuddered. Are they not Jade King's men? Thinking of the dual identity of the spiritual monk Ku Rong, he had an instant judgment. Of course, he could not let this little evidence reveal the existence of the organization, so the suspicion array chuckled and said: "His Royal Highness has misunderstood, those people in Langqiao Port , It's not my subordinate..."
Shun was slightly startled, and then sneered again after thinking about it, "Those monsters just appeared when you were on your way, and they were just right to help you block the pursuit. There is such a coincidence in the world?"
"There is a common saying in Chuan: No coincidence is not a book. Instead of asking me, your Highness should think about who he has offended..." Verut curled his lips and glanced at him intentionally. "After all, It's hard for us to get a trip to the capital, but it's not for you..."
His soft words made the prince stunned for a while, and he suddenly recalled the beginning of this series of chaos. Isn't it because of the assassin who came across at the Bingquan Hotel? If it wasn't because he stayed in the hotel that night, and if the attacker wasn't Saiker, who was involved in the amnesia with his sister, how could he leave Beijing in order to find out the truth! ?
Could it be said that all of this... is premeditated? Suddenly he felt a little shuddering, and glanced at the smiling assassin leader with a sullen face: "It's such a messy mouth, you think I will..."
Halfway through his words, he suddenly stopped like a jam, opened his mouth slightly, his eyes widened, and a scene of the assassination night flashed in his mind:
The reason for everything is just from the faraway words that seem to be careless: "His Royal Highness, I have been busy for a day today, and I am afraid that I will be involved in general affairs when I return to the East Palace. It is better to stay in the hotel for one night and take a rest..."
In a daze, he seemed to be back that day--
"What can I do in this cold place." He waved his hand and walked a few steps forward. He didn't hear the footsteps following. When he turned his head, he saw that his companion was still looking at the hotel in a daze. He asked, "What?"
"...I heard that there is a kind of tea specially made in Northland..."
He suddenly realized it, and shook his head with a smile: "Well, let's see how special the tea is."
He turned around and strode into the hotel. He stopped there for a while as far as he could before speeding up his pace, as he disappeared behind the ice-wrapped gate.
