Marco, whose full name is Marco Orlando. It is one of the few Nangong Yu in this village, and it can be said that he is the only friend.

The word friend is very unfamiliar in Nangong Yu's memory, and in his dictionary, there is only obedience to orders, killing, or being killed. Even the brothers who were born and died together were also Jinyiwei, and in the end, they forced him to commit suicide by jumping off the cliff with weapons.

Bidding farewell to his father, Nangong Yu came to the village wharf as promised, and he and Marco made an appointment to go fishing together today. Marco's family worked in the shipyards of Venice, repairing ships and building new ones. Venice is more than 50 kilometers away from the village, Marco's parents hardly go home on weekdays, eat and live in the shipyard, Marco has been exposed to it since he was a child, and he also learned the skills of shipbuilding, and the fishing boats of Nangong Yu's family can be used until now, almost all of them are repaired by Marco.

The two were the same age, and when they were about six years old, Marco accidentally found out in the early morning that Nangong Yu, who was walking like a fly, went up the mountain to cultivate, and followed him out of curiosity. When he climbed to the top of the mountain out of breath, he happened to see Nangong Yu cultivating the Yin and Yang Technique, clapping his palms on the stone.

How painful it was, Marco secretly thought in his heart, how could there be such a person, slapping a stone with his own pair of fleshy palms, and couldn't help but exclaim. Nangong Yu reflexively bounced up, years of murderous aura came out of his body, his feet were full of ghosts, and in just one breath, he came to Marco and said coldly: "Who are you?"

If ordinary people saw this scene, they would definitely be frightened by Nangong Yu's strange behavior, but Marco was not only not afraid, but looked at Nangong Yu in a daze, and said a sentence for a while: "My name is Marco, it's a miracle, you run fast." After speaking, he had a pleading expression on his face, as if to say, can you teach me.

Nangong Yu was also stunned, he didn't feel a threat in Marco.

Nangong Yu said, "What are you doing here?"

Marco said excitedly: "I saw you take off, the speed is too fast, so I followed you up, but I was tired to death." ”

Nangong Yuwan smiled and said, "It's rare for a child to get up so early. ”

Marco was puzzled by his strange words: "Aren't you a child?"

At this point, Marco waited for him at the foot of the mountain almost every morning, and when Nangong Yu practiced every day, he would be pestered by Marco for a while. Marco would follow Nangong Yu's ass every day and ask this and that.

"Why are your hands so hard?"

"Why are you running so fast. ”

"Can you fly?"

Annoyed by the question, Nangong Yu simply taught him some methods of breathing and breathing, and asked Marco to do it, and after a while, Marco came to Nangong Yu excitedly, saying that he was in better spirits and had more strength.

Nangong Yu taught him only the most basic, and since then, two teenagers of the same age have often been together. Marco will help Nangong Yu repair the ship, and Nangong Yu will tell some folk tales from his previous life to Marco as a "reward" for Marco to repair the ship.

Marco was very fascinated by these stories, and when he was fine, he came to Nangong Yu, and when the two went out to sea to fish together, Nangong Yu would tell Marco stories to hear. And when Nangong Yu was sometimes ridiculed by other children in the village, only Marco stood up to block Nangong Yu behind him and fought for him.

Nangong Yu was infected by this small act, and slowly became any of this friend, it feels good to have friends, Nangong Yu thought so.

When I came to the dock, there was already a person sitting on Nangong Yu's boat, who was not Marco. Brown hair, plain and clean clothes, sitting on a boat and looking at the blue sea.

Nangong Yu walked over with a smile and greeted Marco: "Marco, why didn't I see you at the bottom of the mountain today?"

Ma Ke smiled and said to Nangong Yu: "Nangong, you are here." ”

When Nangong Yu identified Marco as a friend, he told him the name of his previous life, and at first Marco didn't understand why he had such a weird name, and he barely pronounced it right after reading it several times. Later, after Nangong Yu's explanation, I realized that Nangong is the surname and Yu is the name. Reading and reading, Marco simply called him "Nangong".

Nangong Yu said: "It looks like I'm in a good mood today. ”

Ma Ke suddenly smiled, and said to Nangong Yu: "Dude, do you know, I am going to have my own boat." ”

Nangong Yu heard this and said strangely, "Don't you already have it?"

Marco shook his head and said, "It wasn't given by my father, but I built it myself, and it really belongs to me." ”

Nangong Yu smiled slightly and said, "Where is it?"

Ma Ke pointed in the direction of his home and said, "At home, when my parents come back in two days, there will be a ceremony to go to the sea, and you will come to participate in it then." ”

For shipbuilders, the first time a new ship goes to sea, there is a ceremony to go to sea, and the purpose of the ceremony is to pray for all the best sailing at sea.

Nangong Yu said: "No problem. Nangong Yu looked at the sky, and then said, "Let's go quickly, and we will cook for my father when we come back in the evening." ”

Marco said, "Your dad is drunk again?"

Nangong Yu nodded, and Marco sighed lightly and said, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

Nangong Yu smiled and said, "I'm fine, after all, he is my father, and I should take care of him." "Nangong Yu was an orphan in his previous life, but with a father in this life, he is already very satisfied, no matter what he is.

Marco nodded, he clearly knew that Nangong Yu respected his father very much, so he would not continue to discuss this topic. The two of them pulled out the sails, and the boat slowly sailed towards the sea.

The sea breeze is blowing, the sun is shining on the bodies of the two teenagers, warm, Marco is controlling the sails, Nangong Yu is in charge of the rudder, heading towards Trieste, Marco heard that there are many schools of fish in the sea nearby, and there will be a great harvest if you cast a net there.

Venice is located in the northernmost part of the Adriatic Sea, and most of the water is filled with fishing boats, and occasionally some merchant ships with a deep draft pass by, stirring up waves of water.

Marco suddenly asked Nangong Yu and said, "Nangong, have you ever thought about going to sea?"

Nangong Yu smiled and said, "Aren't we just going to sea?"

Mark shook his head, looked at the distant horizon, and said, "No, I mean, sail to that far horizon." You know, everybody dreams of sailing a ship these days, and listening to the crew, on the other side of the ocean, there is gold everywhere. ”

Gold is not of interest to Nangong Yu, he has seen a lot in his previous life.

Nangong Yu shook his head and said, "I'm not interested in gold. ”

Marco looked at Nangong Yu in surprise and said, "Oh my God, that's gold." ”

Nangong Yu said flatly: "What about gold, after death, it is still a pile of dung, not brought in life, and not taken away in death." ”

Marco was even more surprised, he had never heard anyone say this, for Marco, such remarks were simply anti-human, but Marco was also used to it, Nangong Yu was such a weird person.

How did Marco know what kind of gold and silver treasures Nangong Yu had never seen in his previous life, but what he had seen more was that a wealthy rich official would rather exchange all his property for his life before he died. When the sharp blade in Nangong Yu's hand slashed through their necks, they knew that money was really just something outside their bodies.

Marco said: "You are really strange, in this era, everyone yearns for wealth and freedom, tomorrow I will take you to Venice for a walk, you will know how wonderful the outside world is, it is the biggest city, I see that you stay in the village all day, practice those strange things, and your brain is wrong." ”

Nangong Yu didn't speak, what he had experienced was completely unimaginable and incomprehensible to Marco, so he changed the topic and talked about folk tales again. Time passed quickly, and the harvest was very abundant today, and the cabin was filled with all kinds of fat sea fish, which were about worth 2 silver coins.

In this world, due to the active trade between various places, for convenience, merchants from all countries use a unified currency, and the exchange ratio is like this, 1 gold coin is equal to 10 silver coins is equal to 100 copper coins, and a family like Nangong Yu, 2 silver coins are enough to use for several days.

Seeing that it was not early, Nangong Yu and Marco decided to return to the ship, calculating the time, their father should be almost awake, and they had to rush back to cook. At this moment, a huge shadow blocked out the sunlight, and a large ship flying a red flag sailed quickly. The ship was so large that it was crushing the sea like a mountain, and it didn't care about the other ships on the sea, and it seemed that the target was the port of Venice, which could not enter the harbor, and could only anchor at a distance from the dock, and transport people and goods by other small boats.

Nangong Yu looked at the big ship in front of him and asked, "Marco, is this the ship of Venice?"

Marco also looked at the big ship in front of him and said, "Yes, this ship belongs to the Venetian national fleet at a glance, like the ship of a certain nobleman, it should have just returned from trade and was about to enter the port." ”

Nangong Yu used to be active on land, and he had rarely seen such a huge ship, so he couldn't help but take a few more looks.

With the sound of the crashing waves in the sea, the giant sailing ship slowly sailed with the momentum of dominating the world. There were nine medium-sized frigates on each side, and the middle one was dark red, leading the way. Such a lineup can only be described with the word "shocking"!

When the big ship was getting closer and closer to them, Nangong Yu suddenly felt that something was wrong, and the yin and yang essence in his body began to operate unconsciously, and the yin and yang qi seemed to have been pulled by something, flowing out of the dantian and automatically running along the meridians.

Nangong Yu hurriedly sat on the deck and began to breathe his internal strength. At first, it was suppressed, but the closer the ship became, the more violent the Yin and Yang Jue True Qi in his body seemed to be, as if he was anxious to release it.

Dense beads of sweat began to appear on Nangong Yu's face, and his body began to become hotter and hotter because of the flow of breath. Marco next to him suddenly noticed the abnormality, and he saw Nangong Yu sitting on the deck with his feet crossed, his brows tightly locked, and he couldn't stop trembling.

The Yin and Yang Jue was running faster and faster, and the true qi in the dantian was surging as if it had encountered wind and waves, and he only felt that the huge heat flow was washing over his body over and over again.

Although the true qi in the body was not conscious, now with Nangong Yu's consciousness alone, he couldn't control this true qi.

Under the powerful flow of true qi, Nangong Yu only felt as if his body was about to burst, and the intense pain caused him to directly spurt out a mouthful of blood.

Ma Ke next to him was taken aback at the same time, he didn't know what happened to Nangong Yu at this time, and Nangong Yu himself didn't know why, this situation was like going crazy, it was something wrong with the cultivation of Yin and Yang Technique, which led to such a situation.

Ma Ke didn't dare to continue sailing at this time, so he had to stop the boat and stand anxiously, although he had often seen Nangong Yu cultivating before, but there had never been such a situation as now.

Fine blood beads began to slowly appear around Nangong Yu's body, and as the internal force flowed into the air, the whole person was instantly shrouded in this red mist.

Nangong Yu's brows were tightly locked, his lips were pursed tightly, his body began to spasm unconsciously, coupled with the blood oozing from his skin, it could be seen how painful he was now.

In the mist, there was a crackling sound of bones from time to time, and every time it would give Marco a thrilling feeling, he didn't dare to step forward to touch Nangong Yu, worried that something unexpected would happen.

Nangong Yu's pain at this time is only fully clear to himself, in the face of this tyrannical true qi, he feels that his whole body seems to be cut by countless sharp blades, his internal organs hurt everywhere, and the strong true qi is constantly tearing his body, Nangong Yu knows very well that if he can't suppress the true qi riot, then there is only one final result, that is, to explode and die.

At this time, there is only one sentence in Nangong Yu's will, he must persevere, God will pity him and let him be reborn, but he can't die like this, he must figure out why this situation happened. He worked hard to prevent his spirit from collapsing first, so far life and death were at stake, and the foundation of Nangong Yu's usual cultivation was reflected, and his body was much stronger than his peers.

Although Nangong Yu's situation was very complicated at this time, it was only a few minutes in time, and when the big ship finally got farther and farther away from him, the true qi in Nangong Yu's body slowly became calm, and he was not rioting. Nangong Yu knew that the most dangerous moment had passed, and what he had to do now was to slowly breathe and repair the injuries he had suffered in the process of playing with True Qi just now.

Slowly, the skin on his body stopped oozing blood, and his complexion slowly returned to normal, although it seemed to Marco that it was still so white.

After a long time, Nangong Yu slowly opened his eyes and slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, now he has completely mastered his body and returned to normal, but the experience just now still makes Nangong Yu feel palpitations.

Marco saw Nangong Yu open his eyes, and said carefully: "Nangong, what happened just now scared me to death." ”

Nangong Yu shook his head and said, "The true qi in my body was completely out of my control just now, and it rioted on its own, and I almost died here." ”

Although Marco couldn't understand what he said, it wasn't so scary to see him practice before, and I don't know why this situation is happening now.

Nangong Yu asked Marco, "What was on that ship just now?"

Mark looked at the big ship that was far away, and said, "It may be a lot of trade goods, or some kind of treasure." ”

Nangong Yu was in the crisis just now, and for the first time, the true qi of the Yin and Yang Jue in his body was not under his control, and it circulated on its own, so it must have been stimulated by something. But there was no murderous aura around, there was no threat, so presumably, the source of stimulating his true qi must be on that ship, Nangong Yu decided at the moment that he wanted to find out the reason.

The ship sailed towards the port of Venice, and Nangong Yu said to Marco firmly: "Marco, we won't go back for the time being, let's go to Venice first." ”
