Chapter 359 The Seventh Prince's Plot

The golden sun sets in the west, until the last trace of red reluctantly disappears on the sea.

The ensuing night cast a dark coat on the entire Jiaolong Bay. The tireless waves hit the walls of the Jiaolong Bay Water Village one after another. They smashed into pieces, but could not break open any cracks in this solid fortress. .

In Jiaolong Bay, a bright yellow halo shines through the doors and windows of the water village hall. Looking from a distance, it looks like a pair of eyes searching for treasures in the dark night.

There are some people in the hall.

Among them was Li Xiong, the first-order guard who came out of the water village during the day. At this moment, Li Xiong was sitting in an armchair. After a busy day, his face looked slightly tired.

As the guard of this place, he has worked conscientiously for twenty years, never sloppily doing anything big or small. This time, the seventh prince of the Linjiao royal family personally brought someone to take over his post, so he naturally stood up for this last post with all his strength. During this day, he personally led the way to various important places in Jiaolong Bay and gave detailed introductions to the Seventh Prince and his party, and arranged for the guards who were about to be withdrawn to be ready to leave.

At this moment, sitting opposite him was a man wearing a blue brocade robe. This man was not sitting on a seat, but on a large wheelchair. The man is young, with a thin face and an ordinary appearance. What is striking is that the man's right forehead and right eye are covered by a gold mask. The mask has an obvious raised sharp corner on the forehead. It seemed as if the masked man had a sharp horn on his forehead.

Behind the masked man, standing to the left and right, was the bald general "Kemba" from the daytime and another thin, slightly older general also wearing armor.

Li Xiong, who had a beard on his face, said: "The living conditions in Jiaolong Bay are far less comfortable than those in the Royal Family. Your Highness, the Seventh Prince, has traveled thousands of miles and volunteered to be the leader of the Jiaolong Bay. You are truly a role model among the princes of the Linjiao Royal Family. ."

The masked man said: "Compared with my six outstanding brothers, I have little talent and limited knowledge. And this Jiaolong Bay is the holy land of my scale Jiao clan, and it is an honor for me to be on duty here. General Li Xiong Staying here in Jiaolong Bay for twenty years is an example for me to follow.”

When Li Xiong heard this, he said repeatedly: "I don't dare to take it. I don't dare to take it. How can a lowly military general be compared with the seventh prince's body of ten thousand gold. I have arranged the handover of duty. I can do it early tomorrow morning." After officially handing over all the duties of guarding this water village to the Seventh Prince and your men, I can rest assured that I can return to the East China Sea Palace, where Your Majesty is back."

The masked man said: "What I have seen and heard this day is full of fighting soldiers and well-organized defenses. It shows that General Li is running the army well. I will definitely give a memorial to my father to show your achievements and ask for help." Reward for merit."

When Li Xiong heard this, his face showed great joy. He quickly stood up from his seat and bowed: "Thank you very much, Seventh Prince, for your support. If I, Li Xiong, are useful in the future, please feel free to give me your orders, Seventh Prince."

The masked man said: "Easy to say, easy to say."

…

The next morning.

The heavy gate of Jiaolongwan Water Village lazily rose up amidst the sound of "squeaking".

When the gate of the village was fully opened, a group of warships hurried out. On the deck of the leading ship, stood a bearded Li Xiong and his two personal guards.

"General, do these seven princes really want to stay on duty at the Jiaolong Bay Water Village for ten or eight years?" one of the guards asked.

Li Xiong looked back at Dazhai, then glanced at the guard, and reprimanded in a low voice: "How can we figure out the affairs of the royal family? His Majesty has seven sons, who is sure that these six princes cannot inherit the throne? Woolen cloth?"

"The general taught you a lesson." The personal guard stood aside in panic and said no more.

Li Xiong held the hilt of the sword at his waist with one hand and looked up at the Jiaolong Bay Water Village that was getting further away behind him. His eyes flickered. He felt both reluctance for his years of business and the expectation of returning to the Donghai clan.

…

The moment Li Xiong's fleet left the stronghold.

Under the water surface of Dazhai Gate, three groups of blue water as tall as one person took advantage of the opportunity before the gate of the water village fell and closed, like three spiritual fish stealing food against the current, sneaking in unknowingly. The three bodies of Xu Yang, Liu Haiyu and Yun Qiaoer were wrapped in the three masses of blue water.

…

In the main hall of Jiaolongwan Water Village.

The seventh prince, who was wearing a mask, arranged the duty tasks in an orderly manner. All the generals in the hall nodded and praised the seventh prince for his shrewdness and ability.

After the affairs were handed over, the masked man ordered to the soldiers in the lobby: "You all go out. No one is allowed to enter here without my permission. I want to discuss important matters with the two lieutenant leaders."

After hearing this, the guards with swords in the main hall lined up neatly and retreated respectfully.

At this time, only the Seventh Prince and his two confidants were left in the main hall. The door of the palace was closed tightly, and there was not even a single person on the corridor.

The masked man who was sitting in the wheelchair had a sly smile on his face. He suddenly stood up from the wheelchair with his hands and said with a slight complaint: "It's really tiring to perform in this wheelchair."

Kemba, who was tall and tall at the side, touched his bald head with one hand and said: "I can't understand why His Highness is showing weakness like this, pretending that his leg injury has not healed, and insisting on being on duty in this remote Jiaolong Bay. ”

The masked man didn't answer, but raised the corner of his mouth slightly, half-smiling, and then touched the corner of his head covered by the mask with his hand, thoughtfully.

The thin old man on the other side said: "Brother Kenba, as the confidants of the Seventh Prince, we can say that we all prosper together and suffer together. At present, the other six princes who are still in the Grand Palace have been preparing for the battle for the crown prince in the near future. They have even started fighting openly and secretly. I believe that our Seventh Prince has his own plans, and you and I just have to obey."

Kenba said: "Brother Bamu, you are right. Especially the second prince among the princes, he is really arrogant. He used the excuse of sparring to beat our Seventh Prince ruthlessly. I heard that a few days before we set out here , and also injured the fourth prince. He is establishing his authority so that other princes dare not compete with him for the position of crown prince. "

Bamu said: "Let them compete. The second prince is confident of his strong body and has the support of his mother's family behind him. Of course, he will take the lead. But he made enemies too early and will soon become the target of everyone's siege. "

Kenba followed the masked man and said: "Excuse me, Seventh Prince, are you really ready to give up the fight for the crown prince and stay in Jiaolong Bay for a few years? His Majesty's physical condition has become increasingly weak in the past two years. Since His Majesty has publicly announced the fight for the crown prince, he should abdicate. plan. When the new emperor ascends the throne, I'm afraid we will never be able to return to the Grand Palace. "

The masked man finally spoke: "I pretended to be lame and hid in Jiaolong Bay to stay away from the vortex of fighting in the Grand Palace. Let my six brothers fight to the death first, and when the opportunity is ripe, I will take you two back to fight. If I can't get the position of crown prince, no one else can get it. When I ascend the throne and become the great emperor, you two will be meritorious elders. "

Hearing what the masked man said, Bamu and Kenba showed excitement and ecstasy on their faces, turned to the masked man, and both knelt on the ground, They swore in unison: "We two will go all out for the Seventh Prince's ascension to the throne, and we will not stop until we die."

The masked man stretched out his hands to help the two of them up and said: "Get up, you two have followed me for many years, you should know my character, if there is no benefit, why would I run all the way to Jiaolong Bay?"

The bald Kenba said: "It turns out that the master has already calculated it, it's really my subordinates who worry too much."

The thin Bamu said: "I said the master must have a good plan."

The masked man pretended to be mysterious and said: "I will tell you two now, the real purpose of my coming here."

After that, the masked man motioned for the two to come closer.

The two took a step forward, tilted their heads and listened attentively.

The masked man bowed his head and whispered, "That day, my father suddenly announced that the seven princes would decide the position of crown prince in the form of a martial arts competition. I always felt that something was a little strange. Even if my father is in poor health, it is not a problem for him to hold on for another ten or eight years. That night, I sneaked into my father's bedroom in the Grand Palace to find the answer to the question. But I didn't find any items like the will. Just when I was discouraged and wanted to leave, I accidentally discovered that my father had entered a secret room. After a few days, the opportunity came. My father was in a good mood and left the Grand Palace for a few days to enjoy the flowers in Sakura Valley. I took the opportunity to sneak into the Grand Palace again and entered the secret room. In that secret room, except for In addition to the totem of our Scaled Dragon Tribe, I also found an ancient scroll about the secrets of our Scaled Dragon Tribe. The ancient scroll records that the Scaled Dragon Tribe originated from this Jiaolong Bay, and there is a powerful dragon power hidden in Jiaolong Bay. As long as I get this dragon power, my body will be greatly improved, and I will surpass the other princes in one fell swoop, and even become the strongest person in the entire Scaled Dragon Tribe. At that time, the king of the crown prince martial arts competition will be none other than me. With absolute power, even if my father doesn't want to abdicate, I will ask him to give up his throne to me. "

After hearing this, Kenba and Bamu's eyes turned wildly, just like two tomb robbers who found the treasure in the tomb and were calculating how to take it away.

...

Three days later, at the foot of the mountain in Jiaolong Bay, on the originally empty forest, ripples appeared, and three figures appeared. They were Xu Yang, Liu Haiyu and Yun Qiaoer who sneaked in that day.

"We have been here for three days. We searched the Jiaolong Bay below, but we didn't find any trace of the scaled dragon beast." Liu Haiyu, who was dressed in blue, said.

Yun Qiaoer, who looked a little disappointed, said, "Yes, even Mr. Liu's water spell couldn't find any results. I'm afraid there are really no scaled dragon beasts in Jiaolong Bay. Could it be that the scaled dragon beasts here have long ceased to exist?"

Xu Yang, who was standing aside, looked at the mountain that towered into the sky in front of him, his eyes turned, and then said, "Mountains are not high, but they are famous for immortals, and water is not deep, but it is magical for dragons. But who stipulates that the scaled dragon beast must live in the water and not in the mountains?"

Yun Qiaoer joked after hearing this, "Mr. Xu is worthy of being a cultivator who practices the ghost way. He always has surprising ghost ideas."

After hearing this, Liu Haiyu walked to the mountain wall, stretched out a finger and poked it lightly, and a blue light flashed like a ripple. After a moment, he retracted his finger and said, "The spiritual energy on this mountain is indeed rich. Maybe the scaled dragon beast or the dragon power is really on it." The three looked at each other and said in unison, "Let's go."
