Chapter 831: Clues
In the Dragon Boat Workshop.
At the end of everyone's visit, Zhou Yu walked out of the cabin with Emperor Chu, and Zhuge Liang was still looking at the black-winged warship.
Seeing his solemn expression, Emperor Chu chuckled, stepped forward, and said, "Kong Ming, what do you think of adding wheels to the warship?" ”
"Constantly reducing the consumption of manpower, and at the same time increasing speed!"
"Yes, the emperor is really resourceful, Weichen didn't expect that the wheel warship can be accelerated, so if the slaughterhouse and the wheels can also achieve such an effect."
Emperor Chu didn't expect his proposal to make Zhuge Liang resonate so much, it was because of this that Kong Ming later built a wooden ox and a flowing horse, and at the same time perfected the structure of the slaughtering cart, so that it could exert its great power.
"Zhou Yu, try to have someone put wheels on the dragon boat and black wing, and see how it works."
Hearing Chu Feifan's words, Zhou Yu fell into deep thought, and added the idea of adding wheels to the design in his mind, and the corners of his mouth instantly appeared excited.
"Your Majesty, this idea is indeed full of creativity, Weichen will send someone to try it!"
Leaving from the Dragon Boat Workshop, Zhou Yu and Qi Jiguang took Emperor Chu to the naval camp, and everyone strode forward, when suddenly there was a commotion at the end of the long street, and the people fled in a panic.
"What happened, why did the people suddenly riot?"
Zhou Yu and Qi Jiguang didn't know why, looking at the people who came in a panic, Zhou Yu raised his hand to stop a fisherman and asked.
"What's going on on the beach, why are you so panicking?"
The man looked up and found that it was Zhou Yu who stopped him, and a trembling voice sounded: "General Zhou, a sea monster has appeared on the seaside, and it is crazy to attack the people and fishing boats!" ”
"Sea monsters?"
"What's the matter, this palace has been in Yongjiang City for nearly half a year, why have I never heard of the news about the sea monster."
Zhou Yu was puzzled, the end of this street just leads to the sea, and the people of Suri go to sea from here, so this wharf can be regarded as the most lively wharf in Yongjiang City.
"General Zhou, General Qi, the East China Sea sea monster has not appeared for five years, in the past, the people in the city worshiped the sea god every year, since the sea monster was an hour five years ago, the people did not pay tribute to the New Year's festival, presumably the sea monster was psychic, and felt that the people were not pious enough, so they came out to do evil."
"There seems to be someone who said that it was the two women who angered the sea monster, so it went out to sea to commit murder."
The man's voice trembled, he looked back at his back, looked like he was palpitating, and sent Zhou Yu's palm away and ran away quickly.
"I haven't shown up for five years, and I went to sea to commit murder because of two women?"
Zhou Yu muttered to himself, only to hear Zhuge Liang shouting on the side, and Emperor Chu led the generals to quickly rush to the sea.
"It's not good, the two mothers are in danger!"
Zhuge Liang looked at the celestial phenomena, and suddenly saw a black mist lingering around the direction of the Emperor Star, and he guessed that Diao Chan and Chen Yuanyuan were in danger, which happened to confirm what the man said just now.
Chu Feifan thought that Diao Chan and Chen Yuanyuan would be in danger, and quickly swept towards the sea through the crowd, the dock was in a mess, the boat was overturned, fish baskets, fish baskets were everywhere, floating corpses were everywhere, and the sea water continued to retreat from the shore, and the sound of the shore resounded in the void.
Everyone stared intently at the sea, the choppy waves kept moving away, but the figures of Diao Chan and Chen Yuanyuan were nowhere to be seen.
The sea monster is troubled, the white waves are turbid, and at this time, the waves are gone, and everyone is out of reach, and they are simply helpless.
"Youkai!"
"There are youkai!"
At this moment, a man on the shore appeared from under the broken wooden planks of the dock, his figure lying on the wooden plank, his mouth constantly squirting water stains, and a panicked scream sounded, his face as pale as paper.
"Zilong, Feng first helped him up and asked what happened."
The man was lucky enough to escape, but he witnessed everything with his own eyes, and at this time he was too frightened, and the whole person looked a little crazy.
"Are you okay, what happened, remember?"
Zhao Yun held the man's shoulder and asked aloud, but the man's eyes were glazed, his expression was dull, and he kept muttering in his mouth.
"There are youkai!"
"There are youkai in the sea!"
Seeing that he could not get valuable information from his mouth, Emperor Chu jumped and swept towards the beach on the side, he raised his hand to turn the bodies of the dead people around, and looked at them with a solemn expression.
"Could it really be the sea monster, a huge beast hidden at the bottom of the East China Sea?"
Emperor Chu did not find any traces of attack from the people who died tragically, and they were completely shocked by the huge force of the waves and died.
He checked all the corpses on the beach, but found that Diao Chan and Chen Yuanyuan were not among them.
"Were they captured by a sea monster?"
Just when Emperor Chu was puzzled, there was a hoarse scolding sound on the dock, and when he looked back, he saw two men dressed as fishermen, who were drinking wildly.
"The hateful sea monster comes to snatch the woman every five years, why take my lady away?"
"If I meet you, I must break you into pieces!"
Smell.
Emperor Chu jumped back, returned to the dock, and asked, "Two, you just said that the sea monster kidnapped your woman?" ”
"Yes, this is not the first time that the sea monster that killed a thousand knives has appeared, and every time it appears, a large number of women will disappear in the city."
"Wait!"
"Your Excellency said that every time a sea monster appears, a large number of women are missing, are they all taken from the sea?"
Emperor Chu and Zhuge Liang heard the hint in the man's words, and realized that there was another mystery behind the sea monster, and they were afraid that it was not the real sea monster that was causing trouble, but someone was manipulating it behind the scenes.
"Five years ago, the sea monster did not kidnap people on the beach, but as long as it appeared in the city, strange things would happen, and women would continue to go missing, so the people in the city said that the sea monster took the missing woman away."
"It hasn't happened for five years, but I didn't expect it to appear again in broad daylight, committing murder and plundering on the beach."
"Gongjin, let them go back first, and we'll go back to the city to have a look."
Emperor Chu and Zhuge Liang glanced at each other, the two of them had already found that the whole thing was full of doubts, and the people had been deceived for so many years in ignorance, but Emperor Chu did not believe that the sea monster would come out to kidnap people.
A sea monster appeared on the beach, and the soldiers guarding the city quickly came to the dock, and saw Zhou Yu and Qi Jiguang were there, and the soldiers stood in two columns, looking like they were waiting for orders.
"Gong Jin, pass the order, and the whole city will look for the traces of the two mothers!"
Emperor Chu was convinced of Zhuge Liang's reasoning, since the two of them did not have an accident at the seaside, they must be in the city.
Zhou Yu ordered the whole city to search for Diao Chan and Chen Yuanyuan's whereabouts, but at this time, the two of them had already fainted and appeared in a dark and terrifying stone room passage.
There were not bursts of cries for help at the end of the passage, and listening to the voices, it could be concluded that all of them were women.
