Chapter 375: Set sail
Lu Yi was the last to arrive at the meeting place, and after nearly half a month of anticipation, Lu Yi finally rushed back. When Lu Yi came to the tavern where everyone wanted to get together for the first time, there were only six people inside, the Guanglin monk had already handed over the mission items to Dong Zichen in advance and left on his own, while the other monk who was injured by the spirit stone cannon lost a leg because there was no elixir to treat him, and he had to take a boat back to the mainland in advance after completing the mission, to seek the elixir to see if he could regenerate his broken leg.
Everyone was grateful after seeing Lu Yi, if it weren't for Lu Yi's ingenious method to confuse the people of the Chaos Sea Wolf, they would not have much chance of escaping from the bandits who were three times their own and whose strength was higher than their own, and they were even seriously injured by the spirit stone cannon and captured without the power to resist.
Everyone asked why Lu Yi came so late, Lu Yi told everyone what happened to him, and Lu Yi focused on the crazy woman, asking these people who are often active in this sea area have ever heard of such a person, everyone shook their heads and said that they had never seen this person, which also made this crazy woman feel a little more mysterious.
The rest of the time, Lu Yi also handed over the task items to Dong Zichen, and several people were tired after experiencing this life and death journey, so they did not go out again in a short time, but came to this tavern every day to drink and chat, exchange cultivation experience, and Lu Yi used this time to learn from everyone about some anecdotes and some taboos and avoidances in the chaotic sea.
Eleven days passed like this, and early in the morning, a huge ship came to the castle harbor where Lu Yi was. After another seven days, this day was already the day when the giant ship left the port, Lu Yi, accompanied by everyone, came to the port, and after paying the fare of ten high-grade spirit stones, he boarded such a huge ship for the first time in his life.
This thousand-zhang giant ship is 1,200 zhang long and 150 zhang high, and its whole body is made of fifth-order wooden materials, and the important parts such as the ship's side, bow and stern are also wrapped with armor made of fifth-order metal materials. The hull of the ship was engraved with a fifth-order defensive array, and four giant masts up to three hundred feet high hung huge sails sewn from the fleshy wings of the Howling Wind Demon Bat. There were three spirit stone cannons on each side of the hull, and there was a hundred refining crossbows in the bow and stern of the ship. This is a building ship, up and down a total of 12 floors, can accommodate tens of thousands of people at the same time, because of the long-term voyage, so the ship should have all living facilities, and even some small entertainment facilities, such as casinos, Fengyue Hall. Guarding the ship were three sixth-order monks, fifty fifth-order monks and two hundred fourth-order monks, as well as a number of other lower-level monks and physique practitioners as crew members, making the total number more than five hundred. After Lu Yi said goodbye to everyone, he flew to the giant ship, and after finding the person in charge of the reception, he paid an additional ten high-grade spirit stones and asked for a chic single room, because Lu Yi was going to stay in the Chaos Sea for at least two and a half years on this trip, so Lu Yi still hoped that he could have a quiet residence. This small single room is on the ninth floor of the giant ship, each room is different in size, like Lu Yi, this kind of single room can accommodate four people to live in the most, the inside is like a luxury room, there is a living room, bedroom, side hall, etc., the small one has a one-person room, only a small house with a set of tables, chairs and a large bed, the large one has 30 rooms, the area is like a small house, suitable for small caravans with a large number of people. In addition, the lower floors are mixed rooms, which are large and noisy, but those places do not require additional fees, and are suitable for people with low financial strength. The cost and staffing of the entire Qianzhang giant ship are definitely equal to the sum of the property of a small force inside the sinkhole.
A long horn sounded, this is the signal for the big ship to set sail, Lu Yi walked out of the giant ship, came to the vast deck, he wanted to see how this huge ship was launched, such a behemoth did not have enough ability to let it move a bit, Lu Yi was also very curious about this. I saw that the long deck connecting the huge ship and the harbor had been retracted, and a sixth-order early monk led thirty fifth-order monks to the side of the hull close to the port, the sixth-order monk stood in the middle of the hull, and the thirty fifth-order monks lined up on either side of him, standing at equal distances. Three short horns sounded, the hull of the entire giant ship began to glow, the four giant sails swung and adjusted to the direction of the tailwind, the sixth-order monk and the thirty double-palms led by him pushed flatly, and the sixth-order monk shouted "Get up!" Suddenly, thirty-one people spit out a powerful spiritual power with both palms at the same time, pushing the giant ship away from the shore, Lu Yi was surprised, how could these people have such great ability, but after seeing the runes flashing on the hull, Lu Yi suddenly realized that this giant ship was also equipped with a sixth-order floating formation, reducing the weight of the hull to one ten-thousandth, plus the huge sails on all sides with the help of the wind, it was possible to do this seemingly impossible thing with so little manpower. After the giant ship left the shore, the huge rocking oars at the stern swayed, the sails changed direction, and they began to sail all the way through the wind and waves.
The big ship is very stable, after going to sea, all the way twists and turns to the Western Regions, such a huge ship, the entire continent put into operation no more than twenty, all of them take the ultra-long-distance route between the four regions to sail back and forth. Looking at the magnificent sea, Lu Yi felt a sense of pride in his heart, and he couldn't help but want to look up to the sky and howl. Turning around, he saw a group of young monks who were obviously the first time to travel on such a huge ship, watching the sea view together under the leadership of their elders, cheering one by one, Lu Yi couldn't help but think of the lion camel trip he and his friends had back then.
When Lu Yi came to the sixth floor of the giant ship for the first time, he found that there were so many people on the huge ship, and the entire floor of the sixth floor was an open square, which Lu Yi listened to the service staff on the ship, saying that the fifth, sixth, seventh and third floors of the entire ship were set up on the ship to relieve the boredom of these long-distance travelers. After Lu Yi came to the sixth floor, he saw that the entire sixth floor was full of large and small stalls in the middle, except for some small shops around it. Lu Yi began to wander around with interest, not to mention, there are really a lot of good things in the hands of the monks on this ship, because the level is generally not low, so what can be held must be cherished things. Of course, the things sold by this stall group full of Chaos Sea characteristics are also very Chaos Sea characteristics, such as tabletop-sized shells, watermelon-sized pearls, giant fish bones that are more than ten zhang long, hard beaks and claws of demon birds, unknown aquatic plants, etc., etc., which also opened Lu Yi's eyes. The water attribute materials here are simply the price of cabbage, which is right for Lu Yi's appetite, and he has collected a lot of fifth-order and sixth-order materials in one go; Similarly, the pills and magic weapons above the fourth order are sought-after goods, Lu Yi took out some things that he usually doesn't use and immediately became the target of public criticism, and the prices offered by those monks who are in demand are more expensive than those in a resource-scarce place like Tiankeng, while Lu Yi aimed at those water-attribute materials, only exchanged them and did not sell them, which really made him make a windfall.
The giant ship sailed on the chaotic sea, and Lu Yi also discovered an interesting thing, that is, there will always be some demon beasts in the chaotic sea that are not long-eyed, either curiously approaching the giant ship to look at this behemoth that has never been seen in his life, or they think that the giant ship has invaded its territory and come to fight the giant ship angrily. But whenever a demon beast with a certain strength appears, there will be a monk flying out of the giant ship, fighting with the demon beast, and killing it, and the valuable things such as the corpse of the demon beast will belong to the person who killed the demon beast, and only need to pay a certain amount of spirit stones to the guard monk on the giant ship. These guards really make money, for those demon beasts who take the initiative to provoke, they don't have to kill them themselves, and they can also have an extra income from spirit stones, why not?!
Of course, private fighting is also prohibited on the entire giant ship, first, for fear of damaging the hull, and secondly, hundreds of guards and tens of thousands of people are indeed a little stretched, once the situation is not controlled, it will definitely affect the reputation of the Chamber of Commerce. However, there are still a lot of places to have fun on this giant ship, and this casino is one of the most popular places, because this casino is different from the secular kind of gambling place, but a gambling beast, the most exciting of which is the gambling between the sea beasts caught by the giant ship guards or passengers randomly at sea, because of this uncertainty, so the average person can not know what monster will appear in the next battle, and the bet is placed in advance before the monster enters, so it is more exciting. For this kind of gambling fight, the fifth layer of the giant wheel specially built a large pool, for those sea beasts to fight in it, the gambling fight is carried out every ten days, the monks who want to participate in the gambling fight need to go to the giant wheel specially set up the gambling beast management agency in advance to register and schedule, by the special person responsible for the selection of the gambling object, to achieve absolute confidentiality to prevent someone from cheating, but also can greatly improve the excitement of the game. In addition to this, there are all kinds of food, all kinds of small auctions, and even some monks who want to satisfy their physical needs. On this giant wheel, Lu Yi fully understands what it means to spend money like flowing water, rich is the uncle, no matter what you do, as long as you have spirit stones, as long as you are willing to spend spirit stones, as long as you don't violate the rules on the giant wheel, you can do it.
