Night, breeze.

The Thousand Moon Water Blue propped up the three-masted sails and all the sails, but still could only sail southwest at a slow pace.

Slowly but steadily, Lily had already fallen asleep on the top bunk, and in more than ten days at sea, it was probably the sweetest night she had ever slept on.

Jacques on the lower bunk snorted slightly, and muttered, "Count the scales, look at the nautical clock, set the formula...... Formula...... Formula ......"

Fat Orange lay on a mat on the cabin floor, listening to Jacques's dreams.

No wonder Lily said that Jacques was a stupid apprentice, and he had studied for four days, and he had not yet learned the method of calculating latitude and longitude by the clock method, and he had to rely on the clock method of the nautical clock to calculate, and what if the clock was broken?

At the beginning, in the study room of the Earl's Palace, the emperor learned the Tianzhong method in one day, but there was no sextant at hand, and he couldn't actually operate it, and now he gave the emperor a sextant, and the emperor easily calculated our position for you.

On the small table in the cabin was Lee Baptiste's Principles of Navigation, which the navigator had lent Jacques to study.

Boredom, Jacques found it a particularly powerful skill to be able to locate at sea, so he pestered Professor Navigator, and at last, with the help of ten silver coins, the Navigator taught him how to use a sextant and threw him a book.

"The method of converting the data measured by the sextant into latitude and longitude is all in this book, and if you understand it, you will be able to locate it at sea. The navigator generously gave Jacques a book worth 700 livres, and said that he could sail independently after two years of apprenticeship, so the book must have the blessing of the god of the sea, and Jacques spent 10 silver coins without losing money, and he could become a teacher in a few years of research in the New World.

Fat orange doesn't sleep, occasionally curled up in a ball and pretended to sleep, in fact, he is also awake, is it because he slept in the cat kennel for too long, leaving sequelae?

Where is the emperor's cat nest?

Curled up again, with his head buried in four small white paws, and his tail looping around his face, Fat Tangerine really fell asleep this time.

......

Floating in the air? Well, not high.

How many large pillars carved in stone are around, and the roof is overhead?

Where's the Emperor?

A hall?temple?

How tall is this temple? 50 meters?

This face is so ugly, and the carving is so big, this statue is also more than 30 meters high, right?

The *** man with a sword and shield, who is it like?

At the feet are thousands of people kneeling down to the statue, their mouths moving, why can't the emperor hear it?

Is this a dream?

......

The white mist rises and the scene changes.

Isn't it the emperor who lies on the gold wire cushion?

Sure enough, it's a dream!

"Master, you have finally woken up! I thought I would not have a chance to serve you during my time as high priest!"

"Where's Komaki, he's your master?"

"Master, Lord Mu is my ancestor, and you have been sleeping for 46 years. I'm Xiao Lu. ”

"The emperor likes the snacks made by Xiao Mu very much, Xiao Lu, can you make them?"

"The villain will! The villain will do it!"

"Don't worry, tell me what things need to be solved by the emperor? It's rare to wake up, don't let your subjects wait too long. ”

How can this emperor be so dedicated? Of course, you have to eat snacks first, why do you have to work first!

This is not the emperor...... This is an illusion......

............

The white mist rose again.

I didn't see the snacks! What kind of snacks make the emperor unforgettable!

Damn it!

Blue sky, white clouds, high mountains, cities built on the mountains, gray-white stone walls, red roofs, yellow stone paved roads.

From the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain there are only three colors: gray-white, ochre-red, and earthy yellow.

The buildings are scattered and the crowd is bustling...... On the run?

Under the mountain, outside the city wall, there are dense phalanxes.

There are so few people defending the city! The city walls are not satisfied.

Siege ...... More than 100,000!

Going on the offensive?

A strange cloud condensed at the top of the mountain, gradually appearing, like a white cat's paw?

It's like the emperor's claws!

The cat's claw fell from the top of the mountain, getting bigger and bigger as it fell, and finally it was big enough to cover an entire phalanx before it finally landed.

The cloud-like cat's claws drifted away, and the soldiers of the entire phalanx were crushed into pulp.

The siege came to an abrupt end......

The emperor is so powerful!

......

White Mist ......

The top of Zhong Lingyuxiu's mountain is full of bamboo forests.

Still floating in the air.

A fat orange cat walking on a distant mountain road, with a white face, a white neck, white four paws, a white belly, and a white tail.

It's the emperor himself!

The orange cat was followed by a burly old man.

"Xiao Fang, such a beautiful mountain, if the emperor is here...... Isn't it a waste of great scenery?"

"Hosts, it's deep in the mountains, off the beaten track, not wasteful. You see, your subjects are growing more and more, and there is not much land left for cultivation, if it is still the same as ever...... Paying tribute on the plains is a waste of resources. ”

"Okay, since you've already thought about it, the emperor will poop here! It's just that this time the emperor has only slept for more than thirty years, and he doesn't have much accommodation, so don't blame the emperor for not getting many things. ”

"How, it's my honor to shovel for you, my master has waited for more than twenty years and didn't wait for this opportunity. Everything you get in exchange is a gift from you to your subjects. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm going back to sleep after pulling the emperor!"

Hey...... Anyway, after the emperor was summoned by Jacques, he hasn't yet!

None of Jacques' servants had the honor of shoveling for me......

......

Hey, the emperor has woken up!

Fat orange blindfolded his paws and thought to himself, "Don't wake up!" The emperor wants to sleep, and the emperor wants to dream! I haven't figured out where the emperor's cat nest is!

Fat Orange never fell asleep again, and he couldn't dream again.

Could it be that the emperor's cat nest is in the New World? The emperor is approaching the New World, so he remembers some past experiences?

......

On the second day, it was still a breeze.

The navigator took out the sextant from the tin box and examined it carefully, and the eyepiece on the left side seemed to be a little crooked!

Straighten the eyepiece, and the navigator measures again against the sun, noting down the data.

Returning to the chart room, the navigator took out a pen and paper to calculate repeatedly, and studied the chart on the wall for a moment.

Smack!

The pen, which he regarded as a treasure, fell to the ground, and the ink blossomed into a few small black flowers on the deck.

The navigator hurried to the captain's quarters and said to the old leopard captain, "Captain, we are on a yawk! Please take the left rudder at ninety degrees, we need to get out of here quickly, and beyond that is the windless zone of the Devil's Triangle!"

The old leopard said calmly: "I just wanted to ask you, why is the wind getting lighter and lighter, how can we deviate to the windless zone?"

The navigator was sweating profusely and hurriedly explained, "Probably due to the action of ocean currents...... We entered the edge of the windless belt of the Devil's Triangle about yesterday afternoon, and now turn the rudder to the south, and we can get out in half a day. Sorry, I wish I had found out last night. ”

"It's okay, it's still under control. You keep an eye on the ship's position until you leave the danger zone. ”

Walking out of the captain's room, the navigator wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, and was overjoyed: "Fortunately, the captain didn't find out, it's all because Lord Jacques didn't put the eyepiece back in place after fiddling with the sextant...... These ten silver coins are really hard to earn!"

The Qianyue Shuilan turned sharply to the south, and half a day later, the wind gradually rose at sea and the speed of the ship increased.

Three days later, the Thousand Moon Water Blue returned to its scheduled route.

Five days later, Jacques was able to use the Celestial Clock Method with a sextant to calculate the specific location of the Thousand Moon Water Blue, and the navigator no longer dared to claim to be talented.

It's just that now the Thousand Moon Water Blue is less than two thousand miles away from the east coast of the New World, and this is the area where Stuart's privateers hunt.
