...

Laoshan is stretching and majestic, with peaks and mountains lingering in clouds and mists, standing on the coast of the East China Sea like a fairyland outside the world.

In a bay full of reefs at the foot of Laoshan Mountain, seven or eight sea boats covered with scars tied to the reefs on the shore with thick cables, undulating as the waves rise and fall.

Among the sandy beaches and reefs on the shore, hundreds of men, women, young and old have been hiding in this bay for more than a month. The ground is filled with simple fire stoves and pots and pans placed everywhere. Some straw sheds made of simple wood, stones and branches and thatch are scattered among the woods and reefs on the shore. Near the straw sheds, there are discarded bones and shells of birds, beasts, fishes and turtles everywhere, and the range of several miles is in a mess.

A heavy rain was brewing on the sea not far away, and layers of dark clouds were whistling with lightning storms.

An old man with gray hair and a grey beard and dressed in a genital dress, sitting cross-legged on the top of a reef, closed his eyes and breathing, and was always surrounded by boatmen and children cleaning up the messy items placed on the beach.

A middle-aged man in a short robe and a Taoist priest in a Taoist robe hurried down from Laoshan under the escort of several Motus, and soon came to the old man.

"Father, heavy rain is coming, please go to the cave to shelter from the rain!" The middle-aged man respectfully saluted the old man with his eyes closed.

"It's okay, how was the sea ship built?" The old man slowly opened his eyes, and a bright white light seemed to flash in his eyes.

"Back to my father, more than half of the ten sea ships have been built, and they will definitely be able to be completed on time before autumn begins!" the middle-aged man replied.

"It's good that everything goes well. Are the food, clothing, steel, coal and stone prepared by Lu Sheng and the magistrate of Langya County already ready?"

"The food and clothing have been prepared, enough to support a thousand people for two years. Now, nearly 100,000 kilograms of steel, coal and stone are also prepared. However, these items are too heavy, and it is probably not easy to transport them at that time. Carrying too much may crush the sea ship..." Lu Sheng, wearing a Taoist robe, said with some concern.

"It's okay. Although steel and coal stones are heavy, carrying them is also beneficial. They can suppress sea boats and resist wind and waves. Moreover, we don't have to take them all. You quickly arrange for the boatman to go to Langya County to transport these steel and coal stones to that deserted island first. Just wait for the sea boat to be built, and we will immediately take the boys and girls to go to sea. This time, we will definitely find Yingzhou..."

The old man jumped down from the reef as he spoke, and stepped on the beach with no sound at all.

Lu Sheng looked at Huangshi Gong's feet with a little horror, then looked at the footprints that were one inch deep under his feet, and couldn't help but take a few steps back, "Huangshi Gong, are you sure we will be able to find Yingzhou Immortal Island this time?"

"Don't worry, I have been in the East China Sea for decades and have been observing the deserted island for nearly three years. Recently, I have observed the celestial phenomena every day and night. I have found the direction to Yingzhou. This time I will definitely succeed. Hurry up and arrange for someone to transport coal stones..." Huangshi Gong's sleeve robe rolled and walked towards a stone cave at the foot of the mountain.

A hint of hatred flashed in Lu Sheng's eyes. Now, a group of alchemists were completely controlled by Huangshi Gong. Even if they left this harbor and went out to pay homage to the officials of Langya County, they were all Momen who followed him and could not escape even if they wanted to.

If you still cannot find the so-called Yingzhou Immortal Island when going out to sea this time, you will be completely reduced to a lonely ghost and will never be able to return to the Central Plains.

And all this was caused by Huang Shi Gong.

If he had not listened to Huang Shigong's instigation, he, Hou Duke Han Zhong and others would not have written to the letter to Emperor Shi to go out to sea to find the sacred mountains and fairy grass, and naturally he would not have fallen to this level today.

But it's too late to regret everything now.

Especially after the night attack on the camp by Akamatsuko's disciples and Rasedo's disciples last time, a group of alchemists became even more worried.

There is another mysterious figure behind these people, that is, Chen Xu, the Marquis of Qinghe. Once Chen Xu finds any clues, they will definitely be killed by Taiyi Divine Thunder.

What's more, Huangshi Gong actually trapped those people on a deserted island overseas, and one of them was the wife of Qinghe Hou. This Liangzi had already formed a fortune and could no longer be resolved. In terms of success or failure, they could only go abroad and cannot return to the Central Plains.

Now, these immortal alchemists are completely tied to the Huangshi Gong, the pirate ship, and they can no longer get rid of them.

"Oh~~" Lu Sheng sighed and turned around and walked towards a large ship, and at the same time asked the motus around him to call the boatman to untickle the cables and get on the boat.

Seeing several sea boats heading to Langya in the wind and waves, Lu Sheng stood at the bow of the boat and looked at the cave where Huangshi Gong was sheltering from the rain. His fists were even more sinister, and then walked into a cabin in the cabin.

The cabin is very small, with only two feet of space across and down. In addition to a low desk fixed by the window, simple bedding and clothes were placed on the ground, as well as some messy items. An old man with gray hair sat cross-legged on a cushion mat meditated. Half of his cheeks were covered with scars, and an arm was missing. He was wrapped in linen and his hair looked like a wild ghost dug out of the grave like a mess.

"Donald Hou, are you in good health?" Lu Sheng sat down on the ground and asked.

The old man opened the only remaining eyes and showed a hideous terrifying look and shook his head: "It's impossible for me to be like this now. I can only survive if I can survive!"

"Don't be discouraged. Now the new sea ship can be built soon. Duke Huangshi said that this time he went to sea, he would definitely find Yingzhou. If there were immortal grasses in Yingzhou, Duke Hou might be able to recover..."

"Recovery, haha...hehe..." The old man smiled as ugly as a night owl. "I have been waiting for the evil deeds of Huangshi Gong. Not to mention recovery in this life, even if I can die in the Central Plains, if there is really a sacred fairy island overseas, why would Qinghe Hou obstruct the emperor? So I have now believed that there is no sacred fairy island overseas..."

"Oh, so what? There is still hope. Now that boys and girls are ready, the food and clothing are ready again. Huangshi Gong arranged for me to transport the steel and coal stones prepared by the magistrate of Langya County to the deserted island. I can go out to sea again after the big ship is built!" Lu Sheng sighed at the whistling waves outside the window.

"Where has Han Zhong gone now?" the old man asked.

"Han finally knew that he might not have hope of returning to the Central Plains in this life. In order to prevent us from dying, he brought a group of Mo disciples and his disciples to collect some civilian women with good qualifications near Langya, and prepared to take them to the sea together!" Lu Sheng said quietly.

"Okay, let him go. If he really finds Yingzhou, I hope that his disciples can leave some blood in the end, and one day they can return to the Central Plains and bring back the ashes we have been waiting for, so as not to become a lonely ghost!" The old man slowly closed his one eye again and stopped talking.

On an island a hundred miles away from Laoshan.

A young and beautiful woman stood by the beach, facing the whistling sea breeze, and her slightly shabby black dress was surging with the wind, tightly wrapped around her body and revealing her slim figure.

The woman held a short sword in her hand and looked at the rolling and rolling sea, with a blank and desolate expression.

Nearly a month has passed since he was injured by Huangshi Gong.

Apart from the senior brothers and others who were also trapped on the island, there were only five Mohist disciples and seven or eight boys and girls left on the island. On this island, there were only seabirds and wind and waves as companions, and never saw any strangers again. Not to mention a sea boat, they had never seen even wooden boards.

A young motuo wearing a short hexagram came out of the wooden shed, looking at the woman in black dress standing on the beach in the wind, looking at the extremely obsessed expression on her face, and then she mustered up the courage to slowly walk behind the woman ten feet away and bowed, saying, "Father Marquis, the heavy rain is coming soon. Please go back to the wooden house to shelter from the rain, so as not to get cold when you get in the rain. If you lack medical treatment and medicine on this deserted island, you may suffer from hidden diseases!"

The woman in the black dress did not look back, but was silent for a long time and asked: "Han Zheng, why do you Mo family do this?"

The young Mo Tu was also silent for a long time and shook his head, "Zheng doesn't know, Master and I are just following the instructions of Master. Master speculates that there will be chaos in the Central Plains in a few years. He wants to take us to sea to avoid disaster!"

"The Mo family is already in a unique way and incompatible with the hundreds of sects in the Central Plains. Since Mo Di's death, it has become more and more chaotic. The dogma is awkward and stubborn, and it cannot be tolerated by the emperor or the people. Now it has bewitched the emperor to go out to sea to find the fairy grass of the sacred mountain. You do this so much that you can dig your own grave and destroy yourself. You are now young and promising, and you still have parents and younger siblings at home. Do you want to live overseas and live alone for the rest of your life?" said the woman in black dress indifferently.

"The master's order is hard to violate, Zheng doesn't know what to do..." The young Mo Tu opened his mouth a few times and replied in a low voice.

"Han Zheng, I want to ask you something!" The woman in black dress turned around and looked at the young Mo Tu quietly with beautiful eyes.

The young motu faced these clear and beautiful eyes, his face was dull and he quickly lowered his head and fisted and said, "I would like to ask the Marquis to give him the order. Han Zheng will not refuse if he can do it!"

"If I die, please help me bring this short sword back to the Central Plains and hand it over to my husband!" The woman in black dress extended the short sword in her hand to the young Mo Tu.

The young Mo Tu shook his body slightly, and he still lowered his head and did not dare to look at the woman's eyes. "Don't be so sad. Although you are trapped in an isolated island at the moment, it is not a day before you return to the Central Plains..."

"I...I can't see him again. You are kind-hearted and shouldn't have fallen into the Mo family and fallen into the world. If you have the chance, I hope you can escape and return to the Central Plains to live with your family. The most beloved in the world is the most love in the world, and the most love in the world is nothing more than husband and wife. I lost my parents since I was a child, but later I met my husband and finally tasted the love in the world, but I can't accompany my husband to take care of his husband and children. How can I still have the face to go back to see him? Please accept the dagger first. If you can find a beloved woman in the future, you must treat her well, just like my husband treats me. I think that is the most true and kind love in the world..."

"The Marquis..."
