Chapter 1894: A Diary Six Hundred Years Ago (1)
I don't know how long it has been, but Lin Bai finally woke up from his coma.
As soon as he woke up, Lin Bai did not hesitate, he clenched the flying sword and talisman with his backhand, and looked around vigilantly. But as far as the eye could see, there was still a black mist, and the sea was calm and waveless, without any vitality fluctuations, this discovery made Lin Bai breathe a sigh of relief, and then slowly mobilized his divine thoughts and began to look inward into his body.
I saw that after the previous persecution of the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, the Five Elements Sword Qi between the five organs in his body has now been forced out of the body, and the five organs that were originally attacked by the Five Elements Sword Qi have regained a powerful vitality after the body is nourished by the mana transformed by the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, and those wounds are now healed, as long as they stop for a few more days, they can be healed.
"It feels good to have power!" Feeling the pure mana that filled the hundreds of veins in his limbs, Lin Bai only felt that he had regained his powerful faith, clenched his fists, laughed loudly, and his eyes slowly converged on the deep cabin!
The relics of hundreds of years ago are in front of you, not to mention that this fleet is still carrying the sacred mission of six generations of ancestors! But if you change to an ordinary person here, I'm afraid you won't be able to suppress the curiosity in your heart, let alone Lin Bai. And now that his mana has recovered, the whole person is full of strong self-confidence, Baoshan is in front, how can he not enter it to find out.
And Lin Bai knew that if he wanted to get out of this strange space, he had to figure out what was wrong with this place. And starting with a treasure ship that is close at hand is the best decision.
After pondering for a moment, Lin Bai didn't hesitate any longer, clenched the flying sword and talisman in his backhand, and then slowly walked towards the black cabin. There was silence between the sea and the sky, and the entire treasure ship was also silent, and in this dead space, even the fall of a needle could be clearly heard. As soon as Lin Bai's footsteps moved, the space was filled with the sound of rustling from his footsteps.
After walking slowly to the cabin, he raised his hand and gently pushed towards the hatch, only to hear a squeak, and the hatch opened in response to the movement of Lin Bai's hand! And just after the door opening was cut, a slightly dirty aura hit Lin Bai's face.
Without any hesitation, Lin Baiden dodged away. You must know that in those ancient ruins, as long as they are closed for many years, there will be a large amount of filth in them, and these filthy breaths are extremely toxic, once accidentally touched, it will lead to dying lives. At the beginning, those explorers who discovered the pyramid and died strangely after entering it, it was because they were not prepared to take precautions that they died one after another after the excavation was completed, causing rumors of the pyramid curse to appear in the world.
But the facts in front of him proved that Lin Bai was obviously too worried. Although this cabin is also airtight, it is completely different from the kind of airtightness of the pyramid, after the door is broken, only a puff of smoke and dust falls, and the room returns to normal, and no other breath is revealed. And this discovery made Lin Bai a little surprised, you need to know that although the hatch is not locked, it is also sealed, which means that someone must have been inside the cabin at the beginning, but now there is no filth of human decay in the cabin, which is really strange.
Although he had some doubts in his heart, Lin Bai still walked slowly towards the cabin. After entering it, with the help of the cold sword, Lin Bai was even more stunned to find that although it had been invaded by the long river of history, everything in the cabin was like the hull of the ship, and it still maintained its original appearance without any damage. And the layout of the cabin is extremely simple, only a simple bed board, and a small closet, but the closet seems to have put something in it, and it is closed very tightly.
After experiencing all the facilities on the Queen, Lin Bai didn't dare to imagine that those ancestors in China relied on such simple conditions for ocean voyages. With such rudimentary facilities and the boundless ocean, in such a journey, the seafarers of these treasure ships must have lived so lonely at sea.
But this is the unbearable silence of ordinary people, but they all persevered, and not only persevered, but even came to the other side of the ocean! This is what a tenacious spirit, and this is not a precious quality of the Chinese nation!
After feeling a sigh in his heart, Lin Bai slowly searched the cabin, wanting to find something from the cabin that could explain the doubts in his heart. According to Lin Bai's speculation, the treasure ship he is in now is considered to be the largest among all the treasure ships, and in that hierarchical society, the one who can take this treasure ship should also be a big man among the treasure ship seamen.
And such a person will often have a rough understanding of writing and ink, and maybe he will be able to find something like a logbook. After searching around the room, and seeing that the cabin was empty, Lin Bai raised his hand and released a wisp of innate truth, and opened the door of the closet.
As soon as the closet door opened, a puff of smoke and dust scattered, and then the things in it slowly appeared in front of Lin Bai's eyes. In the closet, there was nothing but a few pieces of clothing, and what was clearly a vial for medicinal purposes.
Could it be that I guessed wrong, this cabin is not inhabited by a big person, but a pawn?! After reaching out and searching those clothes and vials for a while, Lin Bai couldn't help frowning, this search was also fruitless.
No, this treasure ship is quite large, and this cabin is a relatively large cabin, and it is very close to the hatch, which is definitely the residence of the big people in the treasure ship. I guess there's something I haven't found yet.
After slowly scanning the room, Lin Bai's gaze slowly fell on the old wooden bed. According to his previous experience in film and television dramas, it seems that the ancients were very fond of putting precious things in some secret box on the wooden bed.
After a little hesitation, Lin Baideng immediately let out a wisp of divine thought, and threw himself towards the wooden bed. The divine thought was like a gossamer, and the wooden bed was firmly wrapped in an instant, and after some exploration, Lin Bai suddenly found that in the lower left corner of the bed, there was a black thing.
Since he had discovered something, Lin Bai didn't hesitate any longer, walked slowly to the side of the wooden bed, and then stretched out his hand to touch the place that Shen Nian had explored. As soon as his hand touched the piece, he gently pulled it out, and pulled out a small wooden box when he landed. The wooden box had not been carved in any way, and it was obviously built together with the wooden bed, the two were combined, and it was seamless, judging from the appearance alone, even if there was not even a gap as big as a hair, and this was the reason why Lin Bai had not discovered the wooden box before.
After raising his hand to put the heavy wooden box on the wooden table on the side, Lin Bai raised his hand and opened it! I saw that in the wooden box, there was a small old oilcloth bag. When Lin Bai opened the oilcloth bag, an old notebook that looked extremely shabby and the spine of the book was almost falling apart fell out from it.
And after glancing at the cover of the note, Lin Bai couldn't help but be taken aback, only to see that on the cover were six big traditional characters of dragons flying and phoenix dancing: Western Exploration Record!
What is the exploration record, that is the logbook of this entire fleet! According to the original rules of navigation, the only person who was qualified to write this thing was the clerk of the fleet. Lin Bai really didn't expect that under his mistake, he would be lucky to such a level of rebellion, and he randomly picked a treasure ship, which turned out to be the treasure ship where the clerk was.
And when Lin Bai opened the title page and saw the line of beautiful small characters on it, Lin Bai was even more shocked and almost fainted! I saw a line of hidden bones on the title page, like a line of women's calligraphy, which was written: Xuande five years, seven expeditions to the West, and the imperial decree clerk for this exploration and examination, in order to record the route, for future generations.
This passage is translated into modern words, and the meaning is very simple, that is: in the fifth year of Xuande, the seventh voyage to the Western Ocean, a man named He ordered the clerk to write this exploration and examination book, recording the route and voyage log, for future generations.
Seeing these words, Lin Bai was almost about to faint in surprise, and his face was even more excited. Who is the He in this text, and who can he be other than Zheng He, who went to the West seven times and became the pioneer of the Age of Discovery?
Lin Bai really didn't expect that the great man who followed Zhu Di, the king of Yan, to fight in the south and the north, made great achievements, and personally led his generals to the Western Ocean seven times and created such an extraordinary feat as a great voyage, the words written would be so gentle and petty.
However, thinking of Zheng He's other identity, Lin Bai didn't feel strange in his heart. This great man who has made immortal feats actually has another title, and that title is the Three Treasures Eunuch. Under that evil system, the cultural education received by eunuchs was actually not much different from that of women, and it is not surprising that Zheng He's characters are so gentle and beautiful.
A eunuch set up such a scolding of Fang Xuan, led the fleet to cut through the wind and waves, and created such a miraculous feat, which is enough to make the men in the world ashamed.
What Lin Bai didn't expect was that he had met the clerk of Zheng He's edict so skillfully in his casual inspection, and he also witnessed the ink treasure left by Zheng He himself, which can be said to be extremely precious.
What is a logbook, it is the most precious written record of the size of the entire fleet's routes. And it is very likely that this log book also records why this treasure ship fleet appeared here in the first place, and what happened to the seamen of those treasure ships here, and why the treasure ships will last here for a long time.
The most important thing is that the opportunity for me to get out of this space is very likely to be in this log!
After taking a deep breath and calming his mind a little, Lin Bai rubbed his hands, and his fingers slowly flipped through the shabby notes! As the pages of the paper turned one by one, the magnificent maritime history of 600 years ago slowly flashed in front of Lin Bai's eyes!
