Chapter V Recruitment Order
The next day, Lu Yi and Ai Ya were sleeping soundly, and they were woken up by the little duck.
"Get up quickly, get up quickly!" the little duck shouted unzipped the tent and put his head into it.
Lu Yi and Aiya walked out of the tent with sleepy eyes and happened to see the sunrise on the sea. The red sun slowly rose from the sea quietly, and the sun shone on the sea, golden, orange, red..., sparkling and changing colors, it was so beautiful.
After watching the sunrise, the little duck got Tamsui from nowhere. Lu Yi and Aiya washed their faces briefly, had breakfast, and boarded the boat again.
The little duck put away the cable, turned the bow of the boat, and shouted, "The Ugly Duckling, we're leaving!"
Lu Yi and Aiya kicked hard under their feet and shouted: "Kinshan Kingdom, we are here!"
The boat faced the sun, rising and falling in the splashing waves, sailing forward quickly.
Shortly after leaving, Aiya became a little anxious and asked the little duck: "How far is Green Island?"
"If you don't relax, you can arrive in about an hour at the current speed." The little duck replied.
"What other fun islands are there nearby?" Lu Yi also asked.
"Not far from Green Island is the Isle of Prince Ivan," said the little duck. "If you go southeast now, you can reach Ile-France in more than an hour, it will be fun."
"Oh, judging from our experience yesterday, Andersen Island is full of characters and stories in "Anssen's Fairy Tales". Then Green Island must be the people and things in "Grimm's Fairy Tales". There should be French fairy tales on the island of France, but what's going on Prince Ivan Island?" Lu Yi asked again.
"You're right," replied the little duck. "As for Prince Ivan Island, it's all Russian fairy tales."
"Then why is it called Prince Ivan Island?" Aiya asked.
"Because... there are several princes Ivan on the island."
Lu Yi and Ai Ya were thinking, and the boat gradually slowed down and almost stopped.
"What are you thinking?" the little duck turned around and asked.
"I'm thinking about Aiya's problem yesterday. From entering Qishu City to now, is what we have experienced real or illusion?" Lu Yi said, "I can't believe it is true."
"Yes," Aiya also said, "it's like a dream, but this dream is so real. Little duck, do you think, are what we've experienced real or fake?"
"Haha!" the little duck laughed and said, "Do you think I'm true or not?"
Aiya reached out and touched the duck gently, and pulled its feathers again.
"Oh, it hurts!" the little duck screamed, and the boat deviated from the direction all of a sudden. Aiya quickly retracted her hand.
"Hey, it's true," Aiya said, "but..."
Aiya was still full of doubts, and the little duck interrupted him and said, "Why do you think so much? Just have fun."
"Yes, just have fun!" Aiya said, increasing his strength on his feet. Suddenly he pointed to the sea on the right and said, "Look, what is that?"
It seemed like a glass bottle was rising and falling with the waves.
"Is it a drifting bottle?" Lu Yi said.
The little duck turned the bow of the boat and drove over. Aiya bent down and stretched out his hand, and then fished the thing up.
"It's a drifting bottle!" said Aiya.
The little duck handed over a knife, Aiya pried open the bottle opening and picked out a piece of folded paper from it.
It says:
Recruitment order
Emergency recruit warriors with summoners and go to the Sea Monster Island to rescue Princess Burundina who was kidnapped by the Sea Monster! There must be a thank you very much! There must be a thank you very much!
Warriors who receive this letter please go to Ile-de-France to contact King Benan!
"The princess was kidnapped by the sea monster!"
"Warrior with summoner?"
Lu Yi and Ai Ya looked at this "recruitment order", and were filled with shock and confusion.
"Little duck, why didn't King Beinan take people to save the princess himself?" Lu Yi asked.
"Yes, why do you have to be a warrior with a summoner?" Aiya also asked.
"Ah, that's it," said the little duck. "In Qishuhai Paradise, everyone has a fixed area of activity, and except for the special circumstances, it is strictly forbidden to leave. However, if there is a summoner summoning, it can be sent to anywhere in the paradise by mysterious power."
"Isn't it a very special situation to rescue the kidnapped princess?"
"Not count."
"What's the special situation?" Ai Ya was a little unfair.
"Uh..." the little duck thought for a while and said, "I don't know very well about some things, but if you are kidnapped by the sea monster, it should be considered a special situation."
"So, how can I be considered a 'warrior with a summoner'?" Lu Yi looked at the "watch" on his wrist and asked.
"You are!" said the little duck with a smile.
"We?" Lu Yi and Ai Ya looked at each other, a little surprised.
"But... can we fight the sea monster?" Aiya was suspicious.
"You don't need to fight in person," explained the little duck. "You just need to bring the real warrior's summoning card, and after you go to the Sea Monster Island, summon the warriors, let them fight and save people."
"Of course, you must also be responsible for formulating combat plans, dispatching troops and commanding operations. Just like the commander of a unit, the responsibility is also very heavy." After the little duck said, he asked again, "How about you, do you want to save the princess?"
"Do you go?"
Lu Yi and Ai Ya hesitated for three seconds, and almost said at the same time: "Go!"
"Okay, go, Île-de-France!"
The little duck adjusted the direction of the boat, Lu Yi and Aiya pedaled hard, and the boat quickly sailed southeastward.
More than an hour later, they arrived at the Ile-de-France. The ducklings docked the boat next to a trestle bridge at the dock and were about to go up to tie the cables, but were stopped by two soldiers.
"What's wrong, man, this wasn't like this before," said the little duck.
The soldier did not answer, and a cat in boots appeared on the pier and said to the duckling: "Hi, man, long time no see."
"Long time no see, cunning cat." The duck pointed to the two soldiers and said, "What's wrong? There were no soldiers here before."
"So a sea monster has been causing trouble, and a lot of things have been lost, and some people have been captured by the sea monster." said the cat, "so the king appointed me as the dock officer to manage the dock in order to prevent the sea monster from getting in."
"Oh, then let us go up, we are not sea monsters."
"No," said the cat, "the sea monsters are changing a lot, I have to be sure you are not the sea monsters."
As he said that, the cat jumped into the boat and grabbed the duck's feathers.
"Oh, why are you pulling my feathers again?" the little duck cried.
"Haha, that's right, it's really you. The sea monster can't change its feathers." said the cat, "Then these two people..."
"They are tourists I brought from Paradise Pier, there is no problem, I promise!" said the little duck.
"Well, I believe you." The cat looked up and said to the soldiers, "Let them go up."
The soldier took two steps back and the duck went up to tie the cables.
Lu Yi and Ai Ya jumped onto the pier and were about to walk inside, but stopped again.
"Is your king Beinan?" Lu Yi asked the cat wearing boots.
"Not Benin." said the cat, "You are looking for King Benin? This requires you to travel through our country and then go through several countries to reach Benin's country - it will take a long way. You may not have come for Princess Burundina, are you? I heard that she has disappeared and may have been captured by the sea monster. Damn sea monster!"
"We came for Princess Burundina's business, and we received the recruitment order." Lu Yi said, "Can you tell me how far is the 'long road'?"
"Well," the cat looked up at the sky and said, "from now on, maybe it's time to walk up to the sun."
"It's noon when the sun rises above my head." Lu Yi looked at the watch, which is the summoner, and said, "It will take about two hours. Fortunately, it's not too far. It seems that the country here is not big. So, in which direction should we go?"
"There," the cat pointed eastward, "keep walking."
"Okay, thank you." Lu Yi turned to the duck again and said, "Little duck, wait for us here, we will try to come back early."
"No, I'll go with you this time." said the little duck, "It seems that this island is not peaceful. I'll go with you so I can take care of you."
