Chapter 439: Out to Sea
After resting all afternoon and having dinner, Jiang Fei gathered us together and talked about the plan to find Penglai Immortal Island tomorrow!
There are many legends about Penglai Immortal Island, but basically they are some mythological stories, and no one knows where the real Penglai Immortal Island is?
But in the news that Jiang Fei has mastered, there is such a saying: The fifteenth moon is full, the sea market rakshasa is winding, and the fairy gate is wide open!
The meaning of this sentence is actually that if you want to find the correct location of Penglai Immortal Island, you must go to sea when the mirage appears on the fifteenth moon night of each month, and you will find the trace of Xiandao, and tomorrow is exactly the fifteenth day of this month!
Speaking of the rest, it's easy to understand, but I can't analyze the word Rakshasa in the words, I don't know what it means? It's a pity that he didn't know after asking Jiang Fei, according to his description, in fact, he also started to investigate this matter after receiving my news, and he didn't know much about this matter, and only found out that this sentence was indeed the location of Penglai Immortal Island, and nothing else!
Therefore, if we want to really find Penglai Immortal Island, we still need to explore little by little!
"I've already found a boatman to go to sea, and we'll go to sea early tomorrow morning......"
The man who picked us up from the airport was called Chen Hai, a local, about the same age as us, I don't know what his identity is? But we didn't ask, and when we heard Jiang Fei call him Haizi, we followed suit!
After Haizi saw that Jiang Fei finished talking about Penglai Immortal Island, he added relevant matters to us. In fact, what was said was basically some things that need to be paid attention to when going to sea, and after some words, we didn't hear any useful information.
Hu Yifei and Hu Laoqi are not very familiar with Jiang Fei, they only know that Jiang Fei is friends with me and Lin Zi, so there is not much to say! On the contrary, it was Lin Zi, who pulled Jiang Fei to ask this and that, and asked Jiang Fei for a while if he had found a lot of treasures with the treasure hunting pig? Let him give our brother a few points! After a while, I asked Jiang Fei if he had eaten dumplings filled with leeks and eggs recently? Jiang Fei was speechless for a while!
After talking about business, it was not too late, Jiang Fei and Chen Hai took us around the neighborhood; I visited the famous Penglai scenery with the help of Penglai Immortal Island, what are the ten views of Penglai, Sanxian Mountain, Penglai Pavilion and other places! By the way, I also tasted the local unique Penglai braised donkey meat, which is indeed fragrant and delicious!
As for the place to live, there is no need to make other arrangements, Jiang Fei's courtyard is not much else but many rooms, even if ten more people can live, and he also specially made a room for the treasure hunting pig to let it enjoy himself.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that after I came, the treasure hunting pig would stick to me and let go; I knew it smelled the bronze plate in my backpack, but it didn't tell me.
Intuitively, the bronze plate was supposed to be one with the bronze stump, and it was the most important thing in the fragment of the key that opened the door to the Ascending Steps; According to my suspicion, the final location of the road map displayed on the bronze plate should be the location of the ascending steps. So far, not many people know about its existence!
A dreamless night, early the next morning, we packed our things and went to the local pier! It is a fisherman's paradise, with all kinds of large and small fishing boats docked; When we arrived at the pier, the fishing boats on the pier were already bustling and ready to go, and only one of them was leisurely docked on the shore, waiting for our arrival!
The boss of the boat is an old man in his fifties and sixties, and I heard Haizi introduce him as Bao Xinyi, and we all call him Lao Bao; Also on board was his son, Bao Guogang, a middle-aged man in his thirties.
According to Haizi, Lao Bao has followed the older generation of fishermen to the sea to fish since he was a child, and on this pier, the experience of going to sea is also considered to be one top, so we don't need to worry too much.
Lao Bao didn't talk much, but when he saw us coming, he smiled at us and began to prepare! And his son Bao Guogang told us about some of the things that Haizi talked about yesterday that need to be paid attention to when going to sea, but it was more comprehensive than Haizi; He said that there are still many hidden dangers at sea, and it is okay for familiar routes, but if it is an unfamiliar route, it is very likely to hit a reef; And the weather is also an important factor, if the weather is bad, there are likely to be waves or typhoons, so let's be mentally prepared and listen to their command when we go out to sea!
I know that the reason why they said this is actually for our good, so I took what Bao Guogang said seriously! Several of us have seen the sea for the first time, and we know very little about the sea, only that it is vast and beautiful, and we don't know the huge risks hidden inside!
Lao Bao's boat is an iron fishing boat about ten meters long and about three meters wide, there is a two-story houseboat on the boat, the lower floor is a place to place sundries and rest, most of the space inside is occupied by a large bed set up, and there is a rubber raft that can sit four people on the other side against the wall, leaving only an aisle in the middle, basically no room for movement!
Moreover, because of the large number of people in our trip, Bao Guogang also specially prepared an extra rubber raft in the cabin in case of emergency, plus some miscellaneous items such as diesel fishing nets, and the space inside and outside the houseboat was basically full! There is a staircase on the outside of the houseboat that leads to the control room on the second floor of the houseboat; We didn't go up, so we didn't know what was inside.
"Boom ......"
The sound of a piercing diesel engine came, and Lao Bao started the fishing boat and slowly drove away from the dock! Lao Bao was in charge of driving the boat, and Bao Guogang was in charge of laying down the hands, and after settling us down, we went to the control room on the second floor.
The weather was pretty good, the space in the houseboat was a bit awkward, and the diesel engine was noisy, so I went to the cabin and the sea breeze was blowing! Jiang Fei didn't know if it was intentional or unintentional? It didn't take long for me to come out too!
"Do you know why I took those two things in the first place?"
After walking up to me and sitting down, Jiang Fei took the lead in speaking.
"You may not have known it before, but you should know it now!"
I looked at the vast sea and responded to Jiang Fei's words.
According to my guess, the reason why Jiang Fei took away the bronze stump at the beginning was actually to not let me and Lin Zi get involved in this matter, which was what Fan Chenzi told me before, and it was also what Grandpa meant! But after going through so much, I was finally involved, and because of the blood of the Zhang family, everything had to be solved by me.
