Huadu, the practice ground of the craftsman's gate

Ji Ya, Ziyun and Hao Le gasped slightly, their opponent was their master Lin Yue's friend, known as the phantom Qianji's lacquer carving Ling, yesterday Ma Xiaoguang had left Huadu and returned to the north, leaving only Lin Yue's three little apprentices.

To say that Ji Ya's skills are not under Qi Diaoling, but joining forces with the two failed to defeat her, but was broken by her one by one. Ziyun, who has been walking in the rivers and lakes for many years, can naturally see that the three of them are not Qi Diaoling's opponents, if it is a life and death fight, Qi Diaoling will already have a hidden weapon.

Just when the three disciples were receiving special training, Kou Xueying and her father came to Lin Yue with a young man, and Kou Xueying said: "Engong, this is Adjutant Qu of the Haigang, tomorrow Engong and we will set off on Adjutant Qu's Sea Light." ”

The young man clasped his hands and saluted: "Haibang Qu Zhengyin, I don't know what to call my friend?"

Lin Yue Zhengjue was familiar to everyone, and when he heard the name, he smiled and said, "It turned out to be you, we saw it in the Yunyin Mountain Range." ”

Qu Zhengyin's hometown is the Yunyin Mountain Range, after Lin Yue mentioned this, he also felt that Lin Yue was familiar, after all, the two were still children when they met, and after thinking about it carefully, they really remembered: "It's you." ”

When he was helping the spirit, Lin Yue and Mo whispered through his hometown, his name was still given by Lin Yue, Kou Xueying said, "You know?"

Lin Yue smiled and said, "It's indeed an old man, what about your sister?"

Qu Zhengyin said gloomily: "It's dead, many people in the Demon Sect have died." ”

When Lin Yue heard this, he knew that it was the sin of worshipping the Holy Maiden again: "The festival mourns and changes." ”

Since the two know each other well, of course, there is no problem about the ship, and the Sea Light is the farthest to go to sea this time, and it can reach Suran Island. The scale of going to sea Lin Yue asked Kou Xueying privately, and Kou Xueying replied that there were at least six hundred boats accompanying him, and Lin Yue also had to be surprised by the strength of the four giants of Huadu, you must know that the navy at the peak of the Great Zhou Dynasty was also this scale. No matter what world or era, the ocean is a cornucopia, and at the same time, it is also a gold-swallowing beast.

Of course, Huadu's ships are not warships, and the cost will not be so high, and they are divided into different models such as large, medium and small, and they are decreasing in batches, and some ships will return to one or two countries. When we reach the farthest island of Surand, the remaining ships should be around a hundred.

After agreeing on the departure time, Qu Zhengyin and the ship configuration Qu Zhengyin also took his leave, although the Sea Gang is huge, but there are not so many ships, this is a joint effort of the four families, and the Sea Gang and the Craftsman are also relatively close, although they have their own boatmen, but many ships and artillery still need to be provided by the Craftsman.

Lin Yue returned to the practice ground, Qi Diao Ling was teaching the experience of the three people, the introduction time of the trench music was short, but the entry was fast, Qi Diao Ling was afraid that his mind would not be able to keep up, resulting in an imbalance in conditioning, so it was easy to go mad, so he slowed down his cultivation speed.

And Ziyun has a lot of experience in fighting enemies in the rivers and lakes than the two, but unfortunately his cultivation can't keep up, and Qi Diaoling can only teach him how to maintain maximum combat power under the limited output.

The most headache is Ji Ya, her skills are the strongest, but she is always wasted in the battle, Qi Diaoling said to Ji Ya: "It's not okay to blindly make moves, you have to have your own rhythm, otherwise you can only get twice the result with half the effort, I will now call you the method of synchronous pranayama, you come with me." ”

The two arrived in a corner, sat down cross-legged together, and Qi Diaoling said, "You close your eyes and follow me to breathe." ”

Although Ji Ya didn't know why, she still followed along, at first she closed her eyes and didn't feel anything at all, and the Qi Diao Ling next to her took two deep breaths, only to realize that she followed the same inhalation, and gradually became quieter and quieter in her heart, and she also felt Qi Diaoling's many and subtle breaths.

After a while, Qi Diao Ling called her to fight again, this time Ji Ya was surprised to find the rhythm of Qi Diao Ling when she was fighting, and she was no longer blindly making moves, with the rhythm of Qi Diao Ling, her own moves also changed.

Although Ji Ya still lost after a competition, she felt obvious progress, Ji Ya was full of gratitude for Qi Diaoling, and Lin Yue discussed the matter of going to sea and returned to the practice ground. Seeing the two of them practicing, he naturally knew that Ji Ya had improved a lot.

Ji Ya wanted to surprise him when she saw her master coming, but Lin Yue smiled and said to Qi Diaoling first: "It's hard, my three little apprentices don't bother." ”

Qi Diaoling, who rarely has an expression when talking to anyone, has a change in the face of Lin Yue: "It doesn't matter, they are all very good seedlings, they have good understanding, and they enter the country very quickly." ”

Ji Ya had already felt the change in the atmosphere of the two, but she flattened her mouth but couldn't say anything, only heard Lin Yue say: "The matter of the ship has been discussed, and we can set off the day after tomorrow." ”

Qi Diaoling nodded and said, "Got it, which boat are we?"

"I heard it's called the Light of the Sea"

"Hey, Yumei's boat. ”

"You know?"

"Well, that's the ......" Qi Diaoling and Lin Yue explained, it turned out that although the Haigang had a big family, the ships in it were also classified, mainly public ships and private ships. The public ship belongs to the entire maritime gang, and the captain is assigned, holding high-tech and dividends, but in fact he is still a part-time worker. The private ship belongs to the captain himself, and the crew's salary is also paid by the captain, and each time the business pays a fee to the gang to seek protection, and the private ship is also divided into two categories, one is that the ship itself has a ship and takes refuge in the sea gang for refuge, and the other is that the captain himself buys the boat, which is equivalent to a rich peasant who farms the land and saves some money to buy the land. And this Sea Light belongs to the latter. The current captain is named Li Yumei, a girl's family, her father is an old man from the sea gang, who has worked hard at sea all his life, and finally saved enough money to buy this ship, and when she is old, she will not have food and clothing.

In addition to the daily protection fee, the Light of the Sea is its own most of the time, so the weapons and artillery still have to be run by the female captain Li Yumei herself, and the girls have known Kou Xueying as soon as they come and go, and they also take care of each other.

Lin Yue nodded, I see.

……

The day of departure has finally arrived, the whole Huadu is crowded, the wharf is crowded with hundreds of big boats, and the people who carry it back and forth are constantly calling and going, in fact, the handling work has begun as early as ten days ago, and the ships of the entire wharf have also been replaced.

Lin Yue took three disciples to follow Kou Xueying and Qi Diaoling, looking at the goods coming and going, including porcelain, tea, silk cloth, and even artillery and ordnance that were special products of the Great Zhou. The Yellow Flower Club also brought more than 100 little girls, every time, selling women from the Great Zhou, and buying back foreign women from the countries of the South China Sea. And the Huadu Chamber of Commerce and the Blue Coat Society are carrying money to the ship in the whole car. After all, the countries of the South China Sea regard the Great Zhou as the superior kingdom of the Celestial Empire, and the copper coins of the Great Zhou can be used in all countries, and they also use Zhou coins as a fashion. In some countries, even the nobles only recognized Zhou money, because their minting technology was too poor, and their own coins were used by the common people.

And the Blue Coat Society brought so much copper money in exchange for gold, some countries in the South China Sea have barren land, and there is nothing to eat at all, just because the land is above the gold vein, and those countries have high copper and gold cheap, and they are rich profits when they come and go.

When I came to the Light of the Sea, the scale of this ship was not small, it turned out to be a three-masted sailing ship, with schooners in front and rear, and the angle could be adjusted even against the wind. Captain Li Yumei is a very old girl, at least according to the standards of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Lin Yue seems that her twenties are the best age for a woman.

Kou Xueying said, "Sister Yumei, I'm sorry for you this time." ”

Li Yumei was also hearty: "My sisters, what's not troublesome, little tune, hurry up and ask them to fill up enough fresh water." ”

Qu Zhengyin, who was busy on the side, patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, eldest sister!"

Kou Xueying was talking to Li Yumei about the route, and several people walked past them, and a figure hidden under the black robe made Lin Yue frown, and he asked Qi Diaoling: "What is the origin of these people?"

Qi Diaoling looked at it: "It should be someone from the Yellow Flower Society, what's wrong?"

"Oh, nothing. Lin Yue clearly felt the power of that black-robed man, and he was a master no less than himself.

And that black-robed man was naturally going to go to sea with the Yellow Flower Society, Kong Chen, he looked back at the direction of the Light of the Sea, and said secretly, I see, I really underestimated him, this kind of strength and feeling, it can't be the five major sects, could it be a person from the three sects? Also, she is also there......

Everything is ready, but it will not be until the afternoon when the wind direction changes.

At the moment when the wind vane reversed in the afternoon, the whole pier erupted into a boiling sound, and under the orders of the captains of each ship, the sails were raised and set sail!
