The name of this place is Xianding Mountain, and it is very high-end when you hear the name, and there is a manor-like building halfway up the mountain. When Ding Qi saw it from afar, he felt that the scenery was really beautiful, but at the same time, he felt that according to the traditional feng shui theory, a village or manor was not suitable for building in this place.

The building is located in the middle of the mountain, facing east, two kilometers away from the East China Sea, with an unobstructed view. The surrounding mountains are lush with vegetation and the environment is excellent.

But good scenery does not necessarily mean good feng shui, and Ding Qi is sure that the manor has been newly built in recent years, and there should have been no villages there in the past, because it was not suitable for people to settle.

Fishing villages by the sea are built on relatively high ground, but the more important point is that it is usually necessary to choose a sheltered place and try to avoid facing the sea in close proximity. Because the humidity will be heavy in the summer, the wind will be cold and hard in the winter, and more importantly, there will be typhoons along the southeast coast, and the storm can uproot the trees and lift the roofs of the houses.

Even if it takes more than ten or decades to encounter such a storm, it is not a suitable place to settle. Although the large environment in the coastal area cannot be avoided, the small environment can be selected and created.

This manor is like a high-end resort and recuperation area, and I don't know which rich boss invested in it, how did he choose a high place in the middle of the mountain that directly faces the sea and has no shelter?

When the off-road vehicle came to the manor on the simple road on the mountainside, Ding Qi was slightly surprised, the person who built this manor was by no means two hundred and five, in fact, on the contrary, at least the designer should be very good at feng shui.

At this moment, there is a wind on the sea, this kind of terrain is already windy, and it is estimated that there are four or five levels on the slope facing the sea, but in the manor, there is only a light breeze on the face, and there is a very comfortable sense of air circulation.

The location of this estate is very selective, with a curved hillside below that becomes steeper and steeper from low to high. The foundation of the manor is like a flattened piece of the mountain, and there are mountains on the left and right. When the wind blows from the sea, local air currents rise along the steep slope in front of the lodge, creating a wind barrier that is invisible to the naked eye.

There is always an updraft in front of the manor, and there is a messy turbulence in the sky, but the wind inside the manor is very small, which shows the ingenuity of the designer.

At the entrance of the road, there is a stone screen, which is engraved with the words "Xianding Mountain Resort Manor", there are several buildings in the manor, both townhouses and single-family villas, the overall scale is not too large, at most a hundred guests. The car stopped in front of the reception center, and Tian Zhongluo was standing there waiting.

As soon as Ding Qi got out of the car, Tian Zhongluo greeted him: "Chairman Ding, you have finally arrived! ”

Ma Yuanling is the owner of Jingsha Island, but there should be outsiders who don't know the inside story on this occasion, so Tian Zhongluo didn't call it that. Ding Qi also understood, and stepped forward to shake hands with Ma Yuanling warmly. Ma Yuanling's complexion is a little dark, probably because of the perennial sun, his hands are very strong and the calluses are very thick, which feels a bit like rough sandpaper.

According to the agreed time, Ding Qi should have arrived at the train station at half past five in the afternoon, feeling that it was almost eight o'clock in the manor. Ma always set up a banquet to entertain guests from afar, most of the dishes are local specialty seafood, if it is open to the public, this table is also expensive. Ding Qi came alone, but Tian Zhongluo brought six entourages, two men and four women.

The last time we met in Nanlan Community, Tian Zhongluo only brought two entourages, Yu Pengfei and Li Xiuyuan, mainly to set off his aura. And when I came to Xianding Villa today, the pomp and circumstance of this Tian Shi was obviously bigger, not to mention the teacup and bag, the so-called assistant must also be a bodyguard, and two young women who were like flowers and jade accompanied him.

As soon as I saw the appearance of pouring wine and vegetables during the banquet and trying their best to flatter, I knew what the relationship between the two women and Tian Zhongluo was. Boss Tian really enjoys it, he does not shy away from his corrupt and depraved life style on this occasion, and everyone here can only be surprised.

After dinner, it was already dark, and after sending the others away, Tian Zhongluo, Ding Qi, and Ma Yuanling came to the small terrace with a glass room on the third floor of the restaurant to chat alone, and then they talked about the outside world and the alliance outside the party.

Jingsha Island is not in the Xianding Mountain, and in the depths of the East China Sea, you need to take a boat early tomorrow morning, and rest and relax here today. Ma Yuanling's ancestors were fishermen for generations, and Jingsha Island is said to be occasionally discovered by his ancestors when they went out to sea to fish, as for how to get the inheritance of the secret realm of heaven and earth and the treasure of the control world, the descendants can't tell, in short, it has been passed down from generation to generation.

Most of the villages along the southeast coast focus on clan traditions and have lived in ancestral areas for generations. Ma Yuanling's original village was called Maxian Village, but now this fishing village is gone, because the traffic is very inconvenient, you have to take a boat to enter and exit, and life is also very hard, when the economy develops, most of the villagers have moved to the city to buy a house.

Jingsha Island is a secret that has been kept by the people of Maxian Village for generations, and now only a few people know about it. Ma Yuanling didn't want to leave this place, so he persuaded the big bosses who had money in other places to invest in the construction of such a leisure resort. The people of the Ma clan who know the secret of Jingsha Island basically stay in this mountain villa as a staff member, and this mountain villa can be regarded as a base

Xianding Mountain Villa is a relaxing resort area where you can stay and relax, rather than the kind of tourist attraction that you need to run around to visit. They usually receive a lot of guests, including individual customers and groups, such as departments of various large companies who come here for a meeting and a vacation, and many of them are introduced by regular customers.

Ding Qi joked: "Mr. Ma, this villa is invested by Boss Tianda, right?"

Tian Zhongluo shook his head with a smile and said: "It's not me, I want to invest, but Mr. Ma has no shortage of ways at all, and some big bosses are willing to throw money at him." Don't look at this Xianding Villa in obscurity outside, it's just for low-key operation, in fact, the profit is very good, and it's convenient to do anything!"

Ding Qi: "It's low-key and good, suitable for the luxury of staying away from people!"

That night, Ding Qi was assigned to live in a small house with three bedrooms upstairs and downstairs, as well as a special reception room and bar. It's a bit too big to live alone, and the owner of Ma Island is just to show the specifications of the reception, and he specially asked Ding Qi if he needs to arrange special services?

Of course, Ding Qi didn't need special services, so he politely declined the kindness. As for Tian Zhongluo's side, there is no need for the master of Ma Island to arrange it, everyone brings it by itself. The next day, everyone got up early, didn't have breakfast, drove down the mountain, and went around to a pier on the inner side of the peninsula facing the bay.

It is a noisy fishing boat wharf built in a sheltered location across the mountain from the open sea facing the harbor, and there are several fishing villages nearby. Standing on the pier, you can see the bay is full of large and small islands, and all kinds of boats are intertwined. They sat down at an open-air food stall and waited for about ten minutes, when Vice Chairman Shui Ruo finally arrived, and the driver who picked them up was still Ma Lao Liu.

If Shui has a public office, his schedule is not as free as Ding Qi's, and he only arrived in Ningde City on Saturday morning. The reason why everyone didn't eat breakfast in the manor was to come here and wait for her. The small shop by the pier, the things are unexpectedly delicious, and the eggs and fried small fish and red bean wine taste very good.

After breakfast, everyone boarded a fishing boat, and Shui Ruo asked with some surprise: "Are we going to sea, take this boat?" This is an inconspicuous fishing boat, more than 100 tons, full load displacement of no more than 200 tons, the hull painted with anti-rust paint is already very mottled.

Ma Yuanling explained: "Our destination is in the open sea, and taking such a boat is not noticeable in that sea area. Mr. Shui is late this time, next time I have time to go to Xianding Villa to stay for a few more days, the scenery there is good, the conditions are okay, Chairman Ding can testify. Xianding Mountain Resort also has high-end yachts, which can take guests out to sea for a fishing ride. ”

In the social occasions of modern people, there are three standard titles, one is to call the position, such as Director Zhao, Section Chief Qian, Sun Dong, and Li Division, and the other is to call teachers, such as Teacher Jiang and Teacher Chen, and the third is to call the general manager no matter what the specific position is, such as Mr. Han and Mr. Yang.

Of course, there is another occasion where men are called brothers, and women are called beauties.

People call Ding Qi occasionally, Dr. Ding or Chairman Ding, but most of the time they are called Teacher Ding, and sometimes they are also called Master Ding. As for the water, if it is on behalf of Xiangshui Peak, it must be right to call the water chief or the water director. Mr. Ma, Mr. Tian, Mr. Shui and Mr. Ding got on the fishing boat together and sailed into the East China Sea from the harbor around the Beibi Township Peninsula.

The fishing boats were running at full power, but not too fast, about a dozen knots, and the speed was less than 30 kilometers per hour. There is a slight wind and waves on the sea, and the fishing boats are undulating. If you are seasick, you will definitely not feel comfortable, but if you don't get seasick, you can enjoy the sea breeze and the scenery in the distance.

Ma Yuanling said with a smile: "I was born as a fisherman, and for more than ten years, I have been eating and living on the boat. Later, I spent more time ashore, and for a while, I couldn't feel the bed shaking every day, and I couldn't sleep!"

Everyone watched the scenery on the deck for a while, the speed of the boat was getting faster and faster, the wind was getting stronger and stronger, the waves from the bow of the boat gradually splashed on their bodies, and there were no other fishing boats around, so everyone returned to the cabin and sat down, sighing that the weather in May and June was really good, just suitable for going out to sea.

The boat looks unremarkable from the outside, but the cabins are clean and comfortable, with tables and chairs fixed to the deck, and even the place where the teacups are placed has fixed round slots. The owner of Madao accompanied the three distinguished guests to drink tea and chat, and also took out a lot of special snacks for everyone to taste.

The scenery of the sea is very good, but when you are located in the open sea, and you can't see the land after sailing for a long time, the constant scenery and shaking will make you feel bored or even dizzy. It's been almost two hours since he went to sea, and Shui Ruo yawned and asked, "Master Madao, how long is it going to arrive?"

Ma Yuanling: "Today's weather is good, it will take less than five hours, we have already walked for two hours, it should be more than two hours, you guys take a rest first." ”

The owner of Ma Island left the cabin and went to the front, the three guests were resting on the sofa, Ding Qi took out his mobile phone and looked at it if there was no signal, then closed his eyes and pretended to sleep. In this endless sea, the divine consciousness can be extended to the farthest sensing distance as much as possible.

Ding Qi found that in this environment, the area covered by the divine consciousness was about one square kilometer, and it could extend as far as five hundred meters. In other words, he can sense things so far away without ordinary facial features when he closes his eyes. But this distance is limited to the surface of the sea, there is a barrier between the sea water and the hull, and his divine sense can only extend to about ten meters underwater, and the farther he goes, the shallower the depth of the sense.

Ding Qi was just expanding his divine consciousness at the moment, not touching anything during the entry, maintaining an unconscious state, and not deliberately paying attention to anything, so he didn't alarm others. In addition to Ma Yuanling, there were eight other sailors on this ship, and there were also a lot of things in the hold, which were actually rice, noodles, oil, salt, tea and a lot of large barrels of mineral water.

In the past, navigation needed to use instruments such as compass and sextant to calculate positioning, but now it is much simpler, directly using the global positioning system, and can also receive sea state information at any time to avoid storm areas. The ship must have been equipped with a satellite signal receiving system, but the ordinary mobile phones brought by Ding Qi and others have no signal at the moment, so they cannot determine the location.

This also couldn't help Ding Qi, he also tried to condense his heart plate in this environment, and outlined an accurate path in the Yuan Shen. It is much easier to do this on land where there are many references, but it is very difficult on this vast sea, because there is no reference in the endless world, and the slightest interruption or distraction in the entry of the country is equivalent to the abandonment of the previous work.

Ding Qi has been condensing his heart plate since he got on the boat, maintaining the state of entering the country when he is awake, and he seems to be a little absent-minded when he speaks, if he didn't break through the Dacheng cultivation before, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to do it, but now he can try.

But his first attempt failed, because when Ma Yuanling said hello and left the cabin, he walked by and patted him on the shoulder, interrupting the process of concentrating on the exercise. Maybe it was unintentional or intentional, but Ding Qi couldn't say anything, so he had to smile bitterly.

But Ding Qi still had the means to find out, because the fishing boat had just sailed by a large island off the coast of Ningde. The island is called Dongyin Island, about 50 kilometers off the coast of Ningde. According to the path of the heart plate that Ding Qi had just condensed, and judging from the angle of time and the sun, the position at this moment is about ten kilometers east of Dongyin Island.

Taking this position as a starting point to re-condense the path of the heart disk, although there will be some errors, the margin of error must not be too far. Ding Qi leaned back on the sofa and pretended to sleep, seemingly resting but very tired, if the flight was a little longer, he might not be able to hold on. Fortunately, the journey went smoothly, and after about two hours, a sailor came to the cabin and said, "We will be there soon!"

Ding Qi opened his eyes a little tiredly, and then saw that Tian Zhongluo and Shui Ruo were in high spirits, and they had already walked out of the cabin to the bow of the ship and held the deck to look into the distance. At this time, the ship had slowed down, and Ma Yuanling did not appear, and he should be at the helm in the cockpit.

In the endless sea ahead, there are two reefs jutting out of the water, about 500 meters apart. In areas like this, large ships should be bypassed, as there are reefs on the surface and there may be reefs underwater, which are often not visible from a visual distance. But it didn't matter if the fishing boat arrived, it was just heading for the middle of the two reefs.

Ding Qi had already discovered the portal at this time, just three hundred meters away on the horizon. He could find out that of course, it was because the cultivation of the secret method outside the square had reached the Wangqi realm, and he could sense such a distance when his divine sense was unfolded on the surface of the sea, but others could not see it.

Roughly speaking, if you take Dongyin Island and Diaoyu Dao as two points and draw a straight line in between, Jingsha Island will be about 50 kilometers along this straight line from Dongyi Island. There are obvious markings on the surface of the sea, which are the two reefs.

Shui Ruo was standing on the bow of the ship and staring wide-eyed, suddenly showing a look of surprise, because such an island appeared in the field of vision out of thin air, and at the same time, the world seemed to suddenly be quiet. The wind on the sea was not small, and the waves were noisy, but now it suddenly turned into a breeze, and it turned out that the ship had passed through the portal before it knew it.

Ding Qi sensed very clearly, when the fishing boat was about to arrive, the portal of the outside world suddenly opened, and the boat came in, and the portal closed immediately, less than a few seconds before and after.

The portal to the outside world was invisible, and if it was changed to another environment, it could be seen obviously because of the changes in the reference scenery, but in this sea, it seemed to be invisible, because it was still a sea in the past, but an island suddenly appeared.

The island is like a mountain jutting out of the sea, with three peaks, two large and one small resembling camels, and there is a clear color demarcation. About the bottom third of the area is a drab gray color, as if there is no grass, and the top two-thirds is covered with green, which should be vegetation.

ps: This chapter is actually a travelogue, I wish you all a happy vacation!
