Chapter 75: Treasure
The next morning, the sky was clear, the sun was shining, and the sea was calm, which was a more suitable day for novices to go to sea.
Early in the morning, Li Mu led Manid and others to receive the double-sailed clipper from Ramon.
After some simple fiddling, Li Mu smoothly drove the ship out of the harbor. Li Mu once entered the great navigation plane, served on the ship for a period of time, and practiced in various positions on the ship, how to drive the ship, how to raise the sails, how to pick up the side, and how to wipe the deck. Although there are certain differences between the structure of Calradia's ships and the ships served by Li Mu, the reason is the same, and after a period of simple adaptation, it is easy to leave the port.
Moreover, the mainland is not far from the place where Li Mu is going, and if he is lucky, he will be able to return to the mainland tomorrow, which is also one of the reasons why Li Mu has the confidence to go to sea with a few rookies.
Clear sky, gentle sea breeze, gentle waves, this is the impression of ordinary people on the sea.
However, the real ocean is a different story. The scorching sun, the salty and humid sea breeze, the weather that can change, and the churning wolves that can capsize the boat at any time......
The real sea is absolutely daunting.
Of course, if you just spend a day or two near the coastline and experience life, the sea is still beautiful.
Li Mu fastened a certain large-brimmed hat to his head, and then stood in the helmsman's position to control the ship, while directing Manid and the others to adjust the sails.
"Manid, raise the sails, and the wind is blowing."
"Mama tea, climb to the top of the mast and look around."
"Jamila, go and pack up the things on the deck, and don't let the barrels roll back and forth, which contain the bread of the last few days."
"Cress, go to the cabin and take out the fishing rod and stick it in the back of the boat, it depends on your luck whether you eat broth or seafood at noon today."
"Joanna, go help Manid, the rope is knotted."
Under Li Mu's teaching, a group of pink novices quickly adapted to their new positions. Although Manid and the others were in contact with the ship for the first time, under the leadership of Li Mu, a series of work was carried out in an orderly manner, although it was a little hectic, and the ship was finally driven smoothly.
When the ship was actually opened, there was not much work needed, and Manid and the others finally had time to see the scenery from the sea.
"My dream is to have a manor by the sea." Kress leaned against the bow of the boat and looked out over the sea. "When I was a kid, I used to fish in the lake with my father when there was no prey. The lake is not big and there are few fish, so it depends on your luck. My father told me that there were so many fish in the sea in the distance that I couldn't catch them all. At that time, I thought it would be great if I could live by the sea......
Li Mu patted Kress on the shoulder, "Your wish will come true." ”
"Boss, I dropped something, it's quite big, come and help." Manid shouted from behind the boat.
"I'll come, I'll come," Mama Tea slid down the mast and took the rod from Manid's hand.
"How did I not know that you could fish, haven't you always been active in the grassland? Can you fish in the grassland? Manid suspiciously handed the fishing rod to Mama Cha.
"Who said there is no lake in the steppe? You can also eat fish there, but there are more spines. When I was a child, I grew up by the sea, and I fished a lot, and I only moved on the grassland when I grew up. Mama Tea said in his mouth, but he didn't stop in his hand, only to see him swinging left and right, sometimes releasing the line, sometimes reeling the line, and it didn't take much effort to get a crab out of the sea.
"Luckily, although I don't know how the fishing rod hooked this crab, but I have a good mouth at noon, and I am the best at boiled crabs." Mama Tea skillfully removed the hook from the crab's body, then hung up the bait and threw the hook out.
"Joanna, go up there and keep an eye on it, we don't know if there's a pirate ship coming close." Li Mu pointed to the location of the observation post vacated above. He remembered that there were still many pirates in this area, but it was up to luck to meet them.
"Okay boss." Joanna gave a dashing salute and climbed up the lookout post.
I don't know if it was because of the problem of the route or if it was really lucky, Li Mu and his party didn't encounter a pirate ship along the way. For this situation, Li Mu didn't know whether he should be happy or disappointed.
I am glad that there is a little less trouble, and I am disappointed that there is one less experience and loot that should be in hand.
However, although the pirates did not encounter it, they did eat a rich seafood meal at noon. Even Li Mu, who has eaten many world delicacies, is full of praise for the craftsmanship of Mama tea.
Due to the relationship between the sea breeze and ocean currents, Li Mu and his party finally arrived at the destination of his trip in the evening, a barren island.
Several people dropped the anchor and rowed a boat to the desert island.
"Boss, what's here?" Mama Cha looked at the desolate island, the whole island was extremely desolate, except for clusters of randomly growing coconut trees and a small hillside overgrown with wild grass.
"This place is so desolate that even pirates don't even look at it." This is Mama Tea's evaluation of this place.
Indeed, food, fresh water, and timber are important supplies at sea, and the island lacks the necessary shelter to be of little value.
Li Mu took out the chart and glanced at it, comparing the coordinates, "Well, this is it, if what is recorded on the map is correct, Saint King Henry should have buried a piece of equipment in this place, just under the big stone over there." Li Mu glanced around, and saw a few stones standing alone on the hillside.
"There is a treasure, so what are you waiting for?" Mama Tea excitedly picked up the shovel and walked towards the hill.
"Let's go, I haven't dug up a treasure when I'm so big, when I was a child, I just watched the story of heroes digging ancient treasures, but I didn't expect that I could experience it once now." Jamila also excitedly followed and ran up the hill.
"Jamila, slow down," Manid followed.
"These people." Li Mu shook his head helplessly and followed.
"Boss, the Holy King's reasonable treasure, aren't you impressed?" Joanna asked with some curiosity.
"I've already dug up the treasure of Henry the Holy King once, the one in the dungeon. Compared to that expedition, there was no difficulty in digging for treasure at this level. If it weren't for the relics of Saint King Henry, I wouldn't have dug it up once and then? Li Mu shook his head and picked a more reliable statement. He wouldn't say that he had bought thousands of treasure maps in the Dao World, and he was about to vomit when he dug up the treasure.
