Lin Yiqing stared at the girl named Li Sizhu, and he noticed that she seemed to be taller, with whiter skin, and her pupils seemed to have a hint of blue, obviously of foreign blood.

What's going on here?

Lin Yiqing only remembered the scene when he dreamed of Lin Yizhe for the first time.

“…… The younger one is my sister-in-law Li Sizhu, although she has been appointed by my aunt as a concubine, but she has not married me yet, and there is no husband and wife, if you like her, marry her, I won't mind......"

He thought back to what Lin Yizhe had said to him, and then he realized that the girl in front of him, Li Sizhu, was the sister-in-law of Lin Yizhe he saw in his dream.

As his mind turned, this time the dream disappeared again, replaced by an endless sea.

On the sea, a group of British warships flying the rice flag were shelling an uninhabited desert island, and not far from the British fleet were five Qianguo warships flying the dragon flag.

Lin Yiqing, who was familiar with military affairs, immediately judged that this was the British fleet conducting an artillery drill, and the Qianguo fleet was watching from the sidelines.

The desert island shelled by British warships seems to be a small island off the northern coast of Middle-earth.

With the continuous flash of the muzzle of the gun, clouds of smoke rose from the desert island, forming a huge umbrella-like cloud above the desert island.

Why did the British conduct an artillery drill on this small island?

Lin Yiqing's heart moved, and the island continued to grow bigger in front of his eyes, and he was on the island in an instant.

Lin Yiqing saw that on this deserted island, a figure suddenly appeared.

It was a girl about eight or nine years old. Her long black hair fluttered in the wind. The whole person is like an alert fawn. Running through the mountain road with vigor and speed, he ran towards a certain part of the mountain.

After she rushed to her destination, she immediately crouched down for some reason, her brows furrowed from the exertion, the green tendons on her thin arms were exposed, and she let out a slight low roar, she vigorously pushed away a heavy stone on the ground, and then pushed it to the side.

There's a spring down there.

Without a moment's hesitation. She neatly lowered the barrel to draw water, and the rope on the handle of the barrel was tightly grasped in her hand, and after two skillful flicks of her wrist to fill the barrel with water, she immediately lifted the barrel out and placed it at her feet, then put the plank back on the mouth of the well, and then lifted the barrel and ran back quickly.

The bucket of water weighed at least ten catties including the wooden bucket, but looking at her running speed and the series of actions she had just taken to fetch water, she seemed to be used to doing this, and all the movements were clean and neat, and she didn't drag the mud and water at all. From the moment she ran from the opposite side to the present time when she completed the task of fetching water, she rushed back. It's almost a matter of minutes.

In fact, if she had been a little slower. I'm afraid that I will be blown to pieces by the shells of the British ships that will fall and explode at any time!

And on the island, there is a man who watches her every move.

The man's eyes narrowed slightly, and most of his face, which was covered by a black cloth towel, was as cold as a stone sculpture.

Watching her run towards the back mountain, the man jumped neatly from the hiding spot he had chosen, and then followed her towards the back hill.

The bombardment of the British fleet began again, and with a piercing whistling sound, shells fell like meteorites, hitting the huge rocks that looked like stone castles, and with the black smoke rising, a large amount of rubble scattered in all directions.

As if he was very familiar with the terrible power of the cannonballs fired by this cannon, the man quickly fell to the ground, hugged his head, and cursed indignantly.

"Thief! It took nine deaths to leave the ghost ship of the Peruvian white devil and crash into the warship of the British devil! It's really a bit of a home! ”

In the smoke and dust, he unconsciously peeked at the girl running in front of her, she was very alert, and her body was dexterously covering herself with all the shelters she could choose. Occasionally, the fragments of stone flakes stirred up by the explosion of the cannonballs flew and hit the covers, and there would be a "plop" sound. Occasionally, when it hits a rock, it will explode into a spark.

Inspired by her, the man saw the opportunity to stand up and continue to run.

The man followed her, watching her all the time, and saw her running quickly towards the back hill with the bucket, into a cave that must have been dug for some unknown reason in the early years.

The cannon rumbled behind him, and the man dodged into the cave, where he was surprised to find that it was not as dark as he had imagined, and that there was a lamp hanging on the top wall of the cave entrance, and that something like a clothes pole appeared in front of him. Although the light is not bright enough, the simple lighting effect is fully effective.

The cave seemed to have been tidied up, and holes had been dug out like compartments, which seemed to serve different purposes, and the girl slowed down and walked to one of the caves with the water.

The man looked at the girl, only to see her find a place to sit down, vigilantly watching the artillery fire outside.

She didn't look to be seven or eight years old, but she didn't show any panic, as if she had been used to all this.

The man silently observed the girl in front of him, and suddenly became excited, as if he had evoked some kind of memory in his heart.

"Sizhu ......," he called softly.

Although his voice was very small, Lin Yiqing could hear it clearly!

After a few more moments, the girl suddenly moved, took a piece of bread from her pocket, stuffed it into her mouth, and chewed it.

There was a piercing whistling, and a cannonball landed at the entrance of the cave and exploded, stirring up a large cloud of smoke and dust, and the girl immediately ran towards the depths of the cave.

The man rolled over lightly at this moment, jumped off the invisible stone wall, and then dodged into the hole.

"Who are you?"

The girl standing at the entrance of the cave looked at the man and shouted loudly.

"Stop screaming! They can hear it! The man lunged down from his hiding place and grabbed the girl and covered her mouth.

The girl was caught off guard and struggled violently, and the man hugged the girl tightly. Drag her behind a rock. Growl into her ear. "Don't make a sound! Let the people on the warship hear it, and you and I won't be able to live! Do you understand? ”

The girl understood what he meant, and gradually stopped struggling. When the man saw that the girl understood what he meant, he slowly let go of her.

The girl jumped away, drew a short knife, and looked at herself with wary eyes.

"Don't be afraid! I won't hurt you! The man was surprised to see the girl, who was only seven or eight years old, pull out a knife, but he was not afraid. Instead, he spread his hands and whispered as pleasantly as he could.

"Who are you?" The girl asked aloud as she stared at him, leaning against the stone wall.

"Ouch, my little aunt! Can you be quiet? The man was in a hurry, and couldn't help leaning out and glancing at the warships on the sea.

"You shouted like this, you recruited officers and soldiers, and the two of us will be dead!"

"Officers and soldiers won't kill me!" The girl glared at him and said, but her voice was still low.

"Come on. Auntie, what is your identity? I know it all! Don't pretend! The man sneered.

"You're talking nonsense!" The girl's face turned red all of a sudden, and her gaze instantly became fierce.

"Grandma, don't be stubborn! Look at your posture with a knife, like a pirate, running crazy fast, and your footboard, I'm afraid you've been on the ship for a long time, right? The man said, "And those things in your cave, did you meet a foreign gunboat this time in business?" How long did it take to fall onto this island? ”

"So what?" The girl glared at him and said, "I'm a pirate, and the officers and soldiers may not recognize me!" Even if you go and tell them, they may not believe it, but you are a long-haired remnant, and I will definitely believe it when I say that the officers and soldiers! ”

Hearing the girl reveal her identity, the man's face changed instantly.

"Which eye do you have that looks at me as a hairy remnant?"

"I won't tell you!" The girl snorted.

There was a whistle on the sea, the man raised his head, looked at the sea, and saw that the warships on the sea had been assembled, divided into a team of rice flags and a team of dragon flags, and from a rice flag warship and a dragon flag warship, each put down the small boat, full of soldiers towards the direction of the island.

"It's broken! Broken! Officers and soldiers are coming! The man's face was as gray as death for a moment.

The girl also noticed that the officers and soldiers were heading towards the shore of the island in a small boat, and a hint of panic flashed in her eyes.

"In this way, how about the two of us co-acting in a play and deceiving the officers and soldiers?" The man had a brain teaser and said to the girl.

"How?" The girl asked.

Seeing the girl agree, the man was overjoyed.

"Little girl, what's your name?"

The girl hesitated for a moment and replied, "My surname is Huang, and my name is Huang Zhengrong." ”

"Huh! Good name! Courageous! The man praised and said, "My surname is Li, my name is Li Xiangtian, let's pretend to be a father and daughter who have fallen back into trouble, if the officers and soldiers ask, you will say that you are my daughter, called Li Sizhu, the two of us went to sea by boat, but we encountered the sea breeze, the boat capsized and sank, and you and my father and daughter survived and fell on this island, understand?" ”

Hearing Li Sizhu's name again, Lin Yiqing's heart was shocked again.

The girl nodded.

"Remember! You are my daughter, your name is Li Sizhu! The thought of missing, the bamboo of bamboo, don't remember the difference! The man named Li Xiangtian saw the boat approaching the shore, and told the little girl whose real name was Huang Zhengrong.

"Li Sizhu ......" may have felt that the name was very good, the girl repeated it and nodded again.

Seeing that the girl was very clever, Li Xiangtian's face showed a look of approval.

"Now, hide the knife!" Li Xiangtian said, and turned his head to look at the sea.

The British sailors and the Qianguo sailors walked up the hill together, when the men and girls ran towards the sailors together.

Seeing the man and the little girl who suddenly appeared, the British officer leading the team opened his mouth wide in surprise.

"Your Excellency...... Save us......" Seeing the sailors, Li Xiangtian deliberately showed a happy expression, stretched out his hand to them, and then stiffened and fell.

Li Xiangtian's body rolled down the hillside and rolled all the way to the ranks of the Qianguo sailors, probably because he didn't choose the position and direction of the roll, he rolled and accidentally hit a dead tree stump with his head, and fainted when he landed.

"Daddy-Daddy-" The little girl swooped down to his side, screaming, and shaking him violently. looks like a little daughter crying for her father.

"Water...... Give me water......" he groaned lowly.

Soon. A few drops of cool liquid dripped into his lips. He felt a shock and opened his eyes.

"Is there anything to eat...... Li Xiangtian hissed.

A Qianguo sailor handed over a piece of bread, and Li Xiangtian smelled the aroma of the food, immediately straightened up, grabbed the bread and chewed it, as if a hungry ghost was reincarnated.

At this time, Lin Yiqing saw Deng Zhengqing.

Deng Zhengqing couldn't help but feel a little strange when he saw that this person in distress was not as weak as when he called for help just now.

Several British sailors stepped forward and handed Li Xiangtian another piece of bread. A British sailor also handed Li Xiangtian half a bottle of rum, and several other sailors came to Huang Zhengrong's side and put a few biscuits and candy into her hands.

Huang Zhengrong looked at the British sailor in front of him, timidly took the biscuits and candy, but did not eat them immediately.

"Did you see that? Mr. Luang Willy, you also said that this is an uninhabited island, but they are all living people, and they have just almost died under the fire of your warship. Deng Zhengqing looked at the British officer with an embarrassed face called Lang Weili and said loudly.

"I ...... I'm so sorry! Luang Weili said sincerely, "Thank God." Protect them from surviving! ”

"If there are casualties among our people, I am afraid that our country will have to negotiate with your country in accordance with the law." Deng Zhengqing looked at the sailors of the two countries who continued to search. Said calmly.

"I swear in the honor of a soldier that if such an unfortunate incident happens, we are willing to take responsibility for the mistakes we have made." Lang Weili said sincerely.

Seeing that Lang Weili sincerely apologized, Deng Zhengqing did not embarrass him with words anymore, but nodded, and his eyes fell on Li Xiangtian and Huang Zhengrong again.

"What's your name? How old is this year? Deng Zhengqing looked at Li Xiangtian, who was gobbling up there, for a while, then turned his head to Huang Zhengrong and asked.

"My name is Li Sizhu, and I am eight years old this year......" Huang Zhengrong looked at Deng Zhengqing and replied in a low voice.

"Li Sizhu?" When Deng Zhengqing heard this name, he seemed to feel very familiar, and Lin Yiqing knew that he should have seen Li Sizhu at Lin Yizhe's house.

"If you go back to the adult, the little girl is called Li Sizhu." Li Xiangtian immediately noticed the strangeness of Deng Zhengqing's expression, his heart froze, he stopped chewing, swallowed the food in his mouth vigorously, and continued, "The villain's name is Li Xiangtian, a native of Taizhou Mansion, Zhejiang, and he went to sea with the little girl, unfortunately suffered a shipwreck, and drifted to this ......."

"I see." Deng Zhengqing nodded, and then asked, "In addition to your father and daughter, is there anyone else on this island?" ”

"Nope." Li Xiangtian said, "The villain's father and daughter have been on the island for seven days, and they have traveled all over the island, and they have not seen anyone else. ”

"Oh." Deng Zhengqing thought about it, but still did not give the order to stop the search.

"Dare to ask your lordship's surname?" Li Xiangtian was anxious to know why Deng Zhengqing was surprised to hear Li Sizhu's name, so he began to talk to Deng Zhengqing.

"This is Deng Junmen." A guard replied for Deng Zhengqing, "It was Deng Junmen who heard the sound of people on the island, so he came up to look for you." ”

"Thank you, Lord Deng, for saving your life!" Li Xiangtian hurriedly bowed to Deng Zhengqing, Deng Zhengqing smiled kindly, and stretched out his hand to help him.

"What do you do on a daily basis?" Deng Zhengqing glanced at him again and asked.

Although it was a casual question, Li Xiangtian still chuckled in his heart.

"Back to the adult's words, the villain was originally in the horse gang business, and later because of the bandits on the road, the capital was reduced, so he had to change to the business of running the sea, just a little better, but this time it was ...... Alas! It's hard to put into words! Li Xiangtian said with a painful look on his face.

"No wonder, I see that your body is very strong, and your daughter seems to have been weathered for a long time, so I think she has suffered a lot." Deng Zhengqing sighed, and looked at Huang Zhengrong's eyes full of love.

"Come, Sizhu, thank Lord Deng for saving your life." Li Xiangtian greeted Huang Zhengrong.

Huang Zhengrong came to Deng Zhengqing, knelt on his knees, and bowed respectfully, and when she wanted to worship again, Deng Zhengqing stretched out his hand to help her up.

Deng Zhengqing looked at the girl again, and the girl hung her head shyly, not daring to look at him.

"The adult just heard the little girl's name, and seemed to be surprised, somehow? But among the adult relatives, there are those who have the same name as the little girl? Li Xiangtian observed Deng Zhengqing's face and asked carefully......

"Not really." Deng Zhengqing stood up and casually asked a Wu chief beside him, "I remember Lord Lin's righteous sister, it's called this name, right?" ”

"What the adults are talking about is that Lord Lin's righteous sister is named Li Sizhu, I have seen it in Lord Lin's house, and she is a big beauty." Wu Chang replied with a smile, "It is said that she is the adopted daughter of Lord Lin's aunt, and she has been pointed out to Lord Lin to be Mrs. Ru." ”

Hearing Wu Chang's answer, Lin Yiqing saw that Li Xiangtian's face had changed, and his body trembled slightly.

"You come with me, wait for the shore, I will subsidize you to have some entanglements, and take your daughter back to the hometown as soon as possible!" Deng Zhengqing said to Li Xiangtian.

"Thank you so much!" Li Xiangtian cried to the ground in a grateful manner, and his true feelings were revealed for a while, and tears fell down in big drops, which surprised the "little Li Sizhu" opposite.

Lin Yiqing looked at this scene and was also surprised.

What's going on with this man named Li Xiangtian? Why did he have such a performance after hearing that Lin Yizhe's sister-in-law is called Li Sizhu?

The dream disappeared, Lin Yiqing woke up from the dream, and a bright moon was hanging in the night sky outside the window.

Li Sizhu ...... If she is really the queen of Zhongwang, it will be too interesting...... However, she should be in Shen Youdan's mansion now, right? Lin Yiqing remembered Li Shaoquan's recent letter, asking him to visit Lin Yizhe's uncle, Shen Youdan, the governor of Liangjiang, as soon as possible after returning to China, and his heart couldn't help but become anxious again.
