Chapter 39: The Boiling Sea
However, Duan Xiaofei has not considered more factors yet, no matter where the island drifts, as long as it does not collide with the Rich Continent, then the boat is still needed, so the top priority now is to build a sailboat. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The planks have already been cut, and the island is almost all scorching sun during this time, and the wood for shipbuilding is now too dry to dry, and all Duan Xiaofei needs to do is to direct the indigenous dream to put the planks together.
The drawings are from the earth where Duan Xiaofei originally lived, although it is just a brochure for some DIY enthusiasts, but the modern design is naturally very scientific, according to the instructions and steps attached to the drawings, it only took half a day for the hull of the sailboat to be completed.
As for the sails that were crucial on the sailboat, Duan Xiaofei directly requisitioned the animal skin clothes of the indigenous people, sewed several animal skin clothes together, and the sails were tied to the mast.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, when are we leaving?" asked Ellie, looking at the sailboat placed on the beach.
"It's too late, if tomorrow the weather is good, then we'll leave in the morning. Duan Xiaofei replied, in addition, he asked the natives to carry the sailboat to the center of the island, after all, the island is round, but it is constantly moving, who knows which side of the island will face north the next morning? Therefore, it is the most labor-saving to put the boat in the middle of the island in advance, and then move the boat from the center of the island to the shore when you set off.
Everything was ready, and after a good night's sleep in the grass hut built by the natives, Duan Xiaofei was finally able to leave the island that had trapped him for nearly half a month, during this time, although he needed to visit the shipbuilding site on the shore from time to time during the day, there were still a large number of natives for him to call on, even if it was boring, there were still Ellie and Xue Meng to chat.
Thinking about it this way, Xue Meng lived alone in the dragon's cave for a year, although every few days there would be natives to send fruits, but in order to play the role of a dragon, Xue Meng must not show up for the natives to see, it is really lonely enough to stay on the island alone for a year.
Duan Xiaofei was thinking wildly in his mind, but he was going to leave tomorrow morning, and he still had to rest for the night when he didn't know what would happen at sea.
After a peaceful night, Duan Xiaofei and Ai Li came to the open space in the village early, and after explaining to the natives that there was a girl on the island, Xue Meng walked out of the forest on the side with her original appearance.
Although it was impossible for a person to suddenly appear on the island, who were Duan Xiaofei and Ellie, they were the divine envoys of the golden dragon, and the natives would never doubt it.
Using the mobile phone compass to calibrate the direction, Duan Xiaofei commanded the natives to move the boat to the north of the island, no matter what, the north is the closest place to the fertile continent, and as Duan Xiaofei guessed, the time of the night, the location of the island has changed again, the north side of the day before was still the direction of the woods, but this day it was on the beach.
With his fingers dipped in the seawater, Duan Xiaofei probed the direction of the wind, and after making sure that it was the south wind, he beckoned Ellie and Xue Meng to step on the fifteen-meter-long sailboat together.
The sails were propped up, the wind blew the sails inflated, and the natives stood on either side of the sailboat, pushing the sailboat into the sea until the water touched their chests, and then retreated to the island.
"Let's go!"
Duan Xiaofei stretched his waist for a long time, turned around and waved his hand towards the island, although he didn't know if the natives understood what he meant, but looking at the black natives kneeling on the ground and making a worship posture, Duan Xiaofei could guess with his toes that they were shouting "praise the sun".
Well, let the sun god bless us.
Although he was originally a materialist who never believed in the existence of gods in the world, Duan Xiaofei looked at the direction of the sailboat and secretly prayed in his heart.
"Is your previous promise still counted?" Sitting on the boat, Xue Meng looked at Ellie with her eyes, then at Duan Xiaofei, and whispered.
"What?" Duan Xiaofei was stunned for a moment and asked.
"You promised me that if you help you leave the island, you will send me to the imperial capital!" Xue Meng was afraid that Duan Xiaofei would regret it, and said, "I want to learn magic!"
Duan Xiaofei moved his eyes, looked at Ai Li, and said to Xue Meng, "You have always lived in the north, have you ever been to a city in the south?"
"Nope. Xue Meng shook her head.
"I can tell you, the southerners, especially the people in the imperial capital, are very shrewd!" Duan Xiaofei's eyes rolled and he thought of a set of words, "You tell me, even though the Imperial Capital Magicians Association has a lot of powerful magicians, why do they teach you magic?"
"This ......" Xue Meng was speechless for a while, but she still insisted on her thoughts, "As long as I go to the imperial capital, I will definitely meet a good teacher!"
"I also heard that there are a lot of traffickers in the imperial capital, by the way, in this case, the elders in your village have also told you, right?" Duan Xiaofei said, "They especially like to catch beautiful and young girls like you, and ah, you can also do magic, and the price must be very high." ”
"Besides, the rich people in the imperial capital are tired of playing with women in the south, if there are girls from the north......" Duan Xiaofei looked at the sky, thinking about how to make up the following words in his mind.
In fact, Duan Xiaofei promised Xue Meng just to deal with it, but when the words came out, Xue Meng also regarded it as a serious promise, and Duan Xiaofei was not easy to regret it, but the current situation was not that Duan Xiaofei was unwilling to take Xue Meng to the imperial capital, but that they couldn't go to the imperial capital at all!
It's only been ten days, and the major cities of the Human Atlanta Empire must be hanging his wanted notices high, so go back like this, aren't they waiting to be caught?
The kind of place in the imperial capital is not like Flint City, although Duan Xiaofei has never been to the capital of this human country, but the capital is the capital after all, and the defense force in the city is not comparable to Flint City, maybe they were arrested by powerful magicians as soon as they stepped into the imperial capital.
Moreover, now Lin doesn't know where she went, just with the strength of Ellie's intermediate magician, and Xue Meng, a magician who doesn't have much attack ability, even if you add Duan Xiaofei, who can swing a dagger and throw a few gunpowder packs, it can't compete with the defense force of a city.
"You, are you going to regret it!" Xue Meng saw that Duan Xiaofei didn't speak for a long time, but she was a little anxious, and said again and again, "You, you're a bad person! Human trafficker! You just want to use me to escape from the island!"
Since Xue Meng stood on the boat, she looked around, the island was still within sight, Xue Meng pointed at Duan Xiaofei and scolded bitterly: "I should have thought of it a long time ago, big liar!"
"Oh, no, I didn't say I wouldn't help you!" Duan Xiaofei hurriedly explained, "Well, I might be able to introduce you to a teacher, huh...... Do you know the transcendent level, the magician, the transcendental?"
"I won't trust you anymore!" Xue Meng walked to the bow of the boat and said, "I won't go with you, at least no one will deceive me when I return to the island." ”
Of course, Xue Meng refers to the aborigines of the island, as the dragon worshiped by the aborigines of the island, Xue Meng naturally eats and drinks here, although it is a little stuffy, but at least there is no need to worry about hunger, of course, the natives will not deceive the gods they worship, and the island is isolated from the world, and it is still moving, and it is unlikely that outsiders will come to the island, and naturally there will be no so-called human traffickers.
Poof!
Before Duan Xiaofei finished speaking, Xue Meng actually jumped into the sea as soon as his body was planted.
"Hey!" Duan Xiaofei is really anxious now, although the island can still be seen here, but the sailboat has also sailed a certain distance, and it is a little difficult to swim there alone.
"Ellie, lower the sail quickly, I'll save her!" Duan Xiaofei greeted and immediately jumped into the water, on earth, he grew up by the southern river, and he has also received swimming training since he was a child, and even achieved results in some small swimming competitions, and his swimming level is not bad.
However, just after Duan Xiaofei jumped into the water, he found that the sea suddenly had waves.
This is not caused by the wind blowing on the sea, nor is it a wave naturally created by the seawater, but ......
From the depths of the ocean!
Duan Xiaofei could feel that a powerful current of water rushed towards his body from the bottom of the sea, even if he didn't use force, he could easily float on the surface of the water, and at the same time, bubbles emerged from the bottom of the sea, and the sea surface seemed to be boiling!
Hum -
As the sea boiled, an extremely strange bass sound came from the sea, the frequency of which was very low, but it was unusually strong, and the sound waves made the sailboats tremble!
