The two old people did have some grievances in the past. This grievance seemed quite big at the time, but time has passed, and now they reunite after a long absence.
necessary.
When they saw each other again, the eyes of the two old people were red, and Ji Nanzheng was more active. He walked over first, and under the anxious eyes of his old friend, he patted his shoulder heartily and said: "No
Cheng Xiang, when we parted at the beginning, we can still meet each other in this life, Wen Song, you are getting old too. "
A very ordinary sentence, a simple greeting, made Zhu Wensong who was standing at the door immediately blush.
He took a step forward and shouted in a choked voice, "Brother Ji!"
The two first met decades ago.
It was the tenth year since Ji Nanzheng floated to Xianyan Kingdom, settled down, and even became an official in the court. Two major events occurred in that year. First, riots broke out in Leiping in the south of Anjiang
.
That year, King Lei Ping was assassinated and died. The four princes of the country colluded with the vassal kings and joined forces to cause chaos.
Ask for help, and promise that if Xianyan sends troops to eradicate the chaotic party for him, he is willing to cut three cities after the matter is completed, as a show of alliance.
The king of Xianyan hit it off with him immediately, and immediately dispatched 60,000 elite soldiers to Leiping to help the prince.
He was buried in the sea in a tornado, although in the end, the remaining 50,000 elite soldiers, as promised, quelled the chaos for the prince of Leiping Kingdom, and Xianyan Kingdom also acquired the three cities of Leiping Kingdom, but Xianyan
The country also suffered heavy losses, and the emperor mourned greatly. He sent his special tutor, Ji Nanzheng, to sing the eulogy written by the Holy Majesty himself in Anjiang, which has comforted the survivors of the shipwreck.
On the third day after Ji Nanzheng respected the emperor's order and sang mourning for the deceased general, he rescued a young man from Anjiang.
That young man, named Zhu Wensong, is not from Xianyan Country, but from another country beyond the sea, called Qingyun Country.
It was the first time Ji Nanzheng saw a living person from his homeland during the ten years alone in a foreign land. He repeatedly confirmed that the young man named Zhu Wensong went to sea with his teacher.
He got stuck in a shipwreck while passing through the Devil's Sea, and ended up here.
Ji Nanzheng regarded this as a turning point. He kept asking the other party if he knew how to go back. He said that he was also from Qingyun Country, his family and his daughter were all in Qingyun Country.
I want to find them, I want to go back to see them, no matter what price I pay!
Zhu Wensong himself was also ignorant, he was separated from his master and wanted to go back as soon as possible, but going back was not that simple, especially since he didn't know the way.
So the two began to plan, summed up the process of the two living in Xianyan Kingdom, and finally came to a conclusion, a tornado.
There is another conclusion, the seabed.
They were all sunk into the bottom of the sea, and when they woke up, they were floating in this strange sea.
Tornadoes are natural disasters, they are rare, but at the bottom of the sea, if they can dive into the deep sea to explore, maybe they can really find out the connection between this ocean and the Devil's Sea
The two were so excited that they simply lived at sea and studied the mysteries of the sea every day.
Later, the task of commemorating the dead was completed, and the people concerned were ordered to leave for Beijing immediately. Ji Nanzheng did not hesitate to defy the order and stayed on.
At first they lived on the boat, and later when the navy returned to Beijing, Ji Nanzheng stayed alone. Naturally, no one specially prepared a boat for him to live in.
Unable to live in the sea, the two went to live in the nearest small Linjiang county, and even hired a group of fishermen for a long time to send them out to sea when they needed it.
This kind of life lasted for half a year, until the emperor of Beijing appointed the crown prince, Zhao Taifu Ji Nanzheng returned to Beijing, and served as the prince and Taifu, he must not violate the order.
Ji Nanzheng is a person who has a beginning and an end. Even if he has decided to study the way back to China with Zhu Wensong, according to the rules, he should also go back to Beijing, or formally sue the officials.
It's fine to take over the task at hand, in short, he can't just walk away.
So he went back, and there was a great disturbance in the capital, which attracted many people to stay. In the end, he resolutely resigned from the official position, and traveled long distances again to the place closest to Anjiang.
small frontier county.
This small county is called Xijin County, and a group of fishermen he hired were villagers from Hongjia Village, but when he came back again, the fishermen told him that your friend went forward once in half a month
The deep sea, so far, has never returned.
Zhu Wensong is gone.
It was clearly agreed that the two of them would go back together, but he disappeared without knowing his life or death.
Can you understand that feeling, waiting for ten years, hope once, but before you have time to embrace hope, hope is shattered.
Ji Nanzheng felt that he had been betrayed, he was deeply hit, and became frenzied. He went to sea every day, sometimes it rained heavily, sometimes the waves were turbulent, no matter the wind or rain
For three consecutive months, he has not given up swimming in the sea where Zhu Wensong disappeared, but he still has not walked out of this sea.
In the late autumn of that year, Zhu Wensong appeared again.
He still came from the sea, and when he saw Ji Nanzheng on the boat, he rushed to him excitedly, not caring about getting wet, and shouted: "I know how to go back, Brother Ji, I
Know how to go back! "
He has gone back.
After Ji Nanzheng returned to Beijing, when he went out to sea alone, he encountered a thunderstorm and the hull capsized. After he fell into the sea, he crossed the bottom of the sea again, returned to Qingyun Country, and returned to the Sea of Devils.
He could have just left, but after being together for half a year, he knew that Ji Nanzheng was more eager to go home than him, so he stayed in the Devil's Sea, looking for the next opportunity to return to Xianyan Country
, finally, at an ingenious timing, he came again.
Ji Nanzheng was ecstatic at that moment, he excitedly embraced Zhu Wensong, and after that, he explained.
He has figured out how to break through the key connection between Devil Sea and An Jiang, and he told Ji Nanzheng about his practice one by one.
Excited, the two began to experiment, one after another, eager to wait, but they failed no matter what.
The gates of the two oceans seem to have been closed.
Both of them were unwilling to accept it. They kept experimenting and going out to sea, and because of this, they even saved a white wolf cub that was smuggled by a sea merchant and unfortunately fell into the water.
Finally, on a snowy day in deep winter, they saw with their own eyes a whirlpool turning in the middle of the sea.
Either a tornado, or a vortex that appeared out of nowhere, like a gate, a gate to home.
Experienced fishermen warned them not to enter the water, it is a ghost hole, and they will die if they enter.
But they didn't believe it. The two of them had been tortured madly by the sea this year. They rushed into the sea and swam desperately into the black hole without caring about anything else.
Then, Zhu Wensong drowned.
Ji Nanzheng swam faster, he entered the vortex first, but Zhu Wensong was only half a step behind him, but was thrown into the bottom of the sea by the wind and waves, almost suffocated, and kept calling for help.
Zhu Wensong couldn't help calling for help, but in that situation, no one could save him, and the fishermen didn't dare to approach him. He sank deeper and deeper, and was about to drown in it.
Ming, he saw Ji Nanzheng swimming towards him.
Thunder and lightning flashed in the sky, the swaying boats were overturned one by one, fishermen fell into the water one after another, Ji Nanzheng dragged the half-dead Zhu Wensong, desperately swimming towards the opposite direction of the whirlpool.
But that vortex might really be a ghost hole, surrounded by fish constantly floating on their bellies, Ji Nanzheng is a scholar with limited strength, finally, he was washed away by the waves,
He couldn't hold back Zhu Wensong, looked at him, and was sucked into the vortex.
That day, several fishermen died because of this, and there were cries in Hongjia Village.
Ji Nanzheng felt guilty and haggard. He sent someone to find Zhu Wensong, but he couldn't see the person alive or the dead body.
He guessed that that vortex might be the way back, and Zhu Wensong might have gone back again, but why not him, why didn't he go home
Hongjia Village no longer welcomes him. If he wants to go to sea again, he needs to hire someone else.
A life, don't they have a family? In this world, is there only Ji Nanzheng whose family affection is precious
He took the little white wolf with him, and planned to find another place to settle down. He didn't want to leave, and he wanted to try again, but in the future, he would try it alone, and he wouldn't hurt anyone else.
Fortunately, he died in the water, let him die by himself.
That winter, he built a small hut at the foot of Mount Huai. One night, he felt that the white wolf in his arms was gone.
A disheveled, disheveled little boy.
The little boy accidentally fell into the trap of the villagers and fell into the deep pit.
Ji Nanzheng rescued the child, washed him clean, and asked him, "What's your name?"
The little boy shook his head, lowered his head and said nothing.
"Then, do you have parents?"
The little boy still shook his head, refusing to speak.
That was the second major event that happened that year. In a foreign country thousands of miles away, Ji Nanzheng found a relative for himself. He named the child Ji Chundong because he was born in the middle of winter.
Day, was discovered by him.
As for Zhu Wensong, he did not die in the sea, but he did not return to Qingyun Country either.
That was what happened in the fifth year after Ji Nanzheng returned to the capital and became the crown prince.
At that time, Ji Chundong had already entered the military camp, and Ji Nanzheng received a letter from afar, signed by Zhu Wensong, he was so excited at that moment, he searched for the address.
Then, he saw Zhu Wensong again. At that time, Zhu Wensong could only be described as embarrassed.
