Chapter 462 A group of drama queens
Luo Zheng looked at Lin Xiao with scrutiny, and asked about the number and composition of people on the island, as well as the defense situation in various places.
However, Lin Xiao only stayed on the island for a short time, and he went there at night, so he couldn't see the whole picture at all. How could he know these details?
He could only say, "I hid myself the entire time I was on the island, so I don't know exactly how many people there are. However, they had dozens of boats, which I secretly destroyed. They must have drifted away with the waves."
Luo Zheng was a little surprised: "You destroyed their ships? Or dozens of them?"
Lin Xiao knew that this matter was a bit exaggerated. He could not destroy it by himself, but who could blame him for having such a powerful little ancestor?
If the little ancestor takes action personally, it will naturally be easy to capture the target.
Lin Xiao said confidently, "Yes, I didn't expect things to go so smoothly. Perhaps this is God's blessing on our Great Xia. There should be no ships available over there now. We are temporarily trapped on the island."
He said God bless Daxia, who dares to question or refute such words?
So no one bothered to investigate how Lin Xiao had destroyed dozens of ships.
Instead, they were all eager to catch the Chen brothers and search for the gold mine.
Luo Zheng asked Lin Xiao and the young man, "When you came out, did you see any suspicious people on the sea?"
They both shook their heads.
The boy really didn’t see it, and Lin Xiao himself was a suspicious person, so how could he dare to say it?
Luo Zheng sighed helplessly, turned his head to look at Tu Jiaojiao, frowned and asked, "What do you think? This is the only clue we have right now."
He was naturally worried about Xie Ying and didn't want anything to happen to her.
But there are no other clues at the moment. Instead of searching aimlessly, it is better to go to the Chen brothers' island and see if Xie Ying is there too.
Tu Jiaojiao tried hard to pretend to be anxious but understanding, and sighed helplessly, "Since this is the only clue, let's go and take a look."
After she saw the young man and heard what happened to him, she guessed that he was the one Xie Ying wanted to save.
So she also felt that Xie Ying was on that island.
It’s just that these speculations cannot be expressed out loud, so that people can know that Xie Ying is extraordinary.
So she had to pretend.
Although Luo Zheng didn't know about Xie Ying's abilities, but thinking about the voice he had heard before, he felt that Xie Ying must be somewhat extraordinary and would not get into trouble easily.
So he sighed, asked Lin Xiao and the young man to lead the way, ordered the official ship to go at full speed, and the other civilian ships to continue searching.
Unexpectedly, not long after they left, a peregrine falcon suddenly flew over, circled over their official ship for a while, and suddenly flew towards Tu Jiaojiao.
Tu Jiaojiao recognized the peregrine falcon and, fearing it might have been shot, quickly shouted, "This is the young prince's peregrine falcon! He gave it to my daughter! Since it's here, perhaps it knows where my daughter is!"
When everyone heard this, they looked at the peregrine falcon in surprise.
Lin Xiao's eyes lit up, and he was secretly excited: Great! He could finally find out where the little ancestor was! The little ancestor was really amazing! He actually sent the peregrine falcon to find them!
Luo Zheng and Song Xingzhou noticed his appearance and couldn't help but be surprised.
They did not completely trust Lin Xiao and were always on guard, suspecting that his appearance was a trap.
But the other party's reaction at this moment was completely different.
If the other party wanted to lure them into a trap, they would never have such an excited reaction after seeing the peregrine falcon and hearing Tu Jiaojiao's words.
Could it be that it was not a trap, and the Chen brothers were indeed on that island, and there really was a gold mine there?
The two of them were in mixed emotions, but remained expressionless.
After saying that, Tu Jiaojiao raised her arm.
Sure enough, the peregrine falcon landed directly on her raised arm and stretched out a claw towards her.
Only then did everyone notice that there was a small piece of cloth tied around its thin legs.
Tu Jiaojiao untied the cloth strip. Although there were no words on it, she recognized it at a glance. It was her daughter's handkerchief!
Tu Jiaojiao immediately said excitedly: "This is my daughter's handkerchief. She must be asking us for help!"
Lin Xiao's mouth suddenly twitched, his expression twisted: "..."
Help?
With the strength of the little ancestor, does he still need to ask for help?
Well, the little ancestor was obviously just pretending, and he couldn't ruin it.
Lin Xiao tried hard to keep a straight face so that no one would notice that something was wrong with him.
At this time, Luo Zheng and Song Xingzhou were both looking at the handkerchief, but they did not notice Lin Xiao's strange expression.
After delivering the cloth strip, the peregrine falcon immediately flapped its wings and took off. After circling in the sky, it flew in one direction.
After flying out about ten meters, it turned its head and looked around. Seeing that the official ship did not catch up, it flew back and continued to circle, and then continued to lead the way.
Tu Jiaojiao immediately said, "It wants to lead the way for us, hurry up and follow it!"
At this time, others also saw it, so they did not refute it.
Luo Zheng directly ordered the official ship to change direction and follow the peregrine falcon.
However, they followed until dark and still couldn't find any trace of Xie Ying.
Everyone couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, worried that they had gone in the wrong direction and their work was in vain.
After all, the other party is just a bird, and it is very likely that it is stupid and leads the wrong way.
However, Luo Zheng looked at the peregrine falcon and asked the fleet to continue moving forward.
However, the light was dim at night, so the fleet slowed down to prevent accidents.
After walking for more than two hours, someone finally saw the island in the distance.
Song Xingzhou, who was observing with his clairvoyance, carefully confirmed it before he said loudly, "There seems to be an island ahead!"
Luo Zheng took the Clairvoyance and looked at it carefully, and finally said: "It really looks like an island, let's go and take a look!"
Because the distance was still far and the light was dim, they could not see the island in the distance clearly, but could only vaguely see a dark mass.
The fleet continued to move forward until the distance got closer and the outline of the island became clearer and clearer, and Luo Zheng and others were completely certain of it.
Unfortunately, the boat was stuck while looking at the island, and the fleet sailed for more than an hour before finally approaching the island.
But it was still dark and they couldn't see the situation on the island clearly. In addition, their ship was a little big, so they couldn't dock easily, otherwise it would easily run aground on the reef.
Luo Zheng could only ask someone to lower a small boat and go to the island to see the situation first.
Tu Jiaojiao stepped forward first: "I'll go up there myself!"
Luo Zheng frowned, somewhat disapprovingly: "The situation on the island is unclear, and there is a high possibility of danger."
"If there's any danger, I have to go there myself. She's my own daughter. How can I let someone else take the risk for me?"
Her words moved everyone on the boat. Several Black Qilin Guards stepped forward and wanted to go to the island to check for Tu Jiaojiao.
They are all men, how can they hide behind women?
However, Tu Jiaojiao insisted on going, so Luo Zheng had no choice but to let her and the Black Kirin Guards take a small boat to the island.
Others waited on the larger ship.
After Tu Jiaojiao and others got on the boat, they soon reached the coast.
