In order to be able to go to sea, the sailor Peng was very sincere and actually returned the previous reward to little Abu, claiming that he would rather exchange the money for a chance to go to sea...... Perhaps it was his affectionate memories that moved little Abu, and eventually, little Abu allowed the sailor Peng to accompany him.

Unexpectedly, the sailor Peng is really "as his name suggests" and can be a real sailor in his lifetime.

As for Zhou Daoan himself...... Even though he was a human being in two lives and had no sailing experience, he did not panic at all. Remember the first treasure he got - R-class legacy item, the Pirate King Salboni's Cursed Gold. In addition to the active effect of transforming into an undead, holders of gold coins can also gain strong navigation skills and adaptability to the marine environment.

Sure enough, after a few days of sailing, the ship had already left the channel of the Tigris and officially entered the sea. Among these people, Zhou Daoan is the one who adapts to the environment the best! From the moment he boarded the ship, Zhou Daoan felt an obvious sense of "adaptation". The smell of the wooden planks of the ship's hull, the salty and humid air wafting from the ocean, the undulating feeling from the deck below...... all gave him a sense of "this is my home".

Life on a ship is the most unbearable boredom and monotony, but Zhou Daoan is not bothered by this at all, and soon mingles with those sailors and crews, completely losing the usual silence and quiet. This couldn't help but make little Abu secretly speechless, and he was even more convinced that this adventurer from the East must have also conquered the sea.

At the beginning of the voyage, every few days, they would arrive at a new place, and if there was a dock, they would dock there, bring some gold and silver to replenish their supplies, and trade with the Baghdad specialties they had brought...... However, these are just handy, and little Abu doesn't care about these transactions at all, just to maintain a habit of commercial aviation.

After a few more days, Zhou Daoan could clearly feel that those ports that could be docked were gradually scarce, and the blue ocean became the main scenery all day long. One week later, when they could no longer see any land, Zhou Daoan knew that they had moved away from human society.

"Mr. Zhou is about to start playing!"

A notice-like shout, suddenly, caused a group of people to pour out of the cabin. These sailors and crew members were accustomed to gathering on the back deck at nightfall every day to listen to Zhou Daoan play the yaoqin. Different from the kind of lofty music in their cognition, Zhou Daoan played more minor keys. If a traveler from later generations was present, he would suddenly find that Zhou Daoan had actually adapted many popular songs from later generations into guqin songs and played them.

These popular songs are so close to the listener! In addition, after actually sailing into the endless sea, life on the ship is terrifyingly monotonous, and it is too happy for the crew to have music to listen to. So, soon, listening to songs after meals every day has become a repertoire on the Sinbado, and it is also the greatest comfort in the hearts of the sailors.

"Mr. Zhou is a good ......" facing Zhou Daoan, who was sitting on stilts and put the guqin, the sailors greeted one after another, and the respect was from the heart, whether it was Zhou Daoan's understanding of the sea, his mastery of music, or being able to help them solve some small physical problems, Zhou Daoan had no reason not to be popular.

Zhou Daoan smiled and nodded, there was nothing to do.

"Mr. Zhou, what are you going to play today? Can you do it all over again? I think that song "Sailor" is really XX too gripping! ”

"Isn't the sailor really Mr. Zhou's song for us? Why do I feel like I'm writing about us? ”

"Come on, you can let Mr. Zhou write it for you? Mr. Zhou's hometown also has seafarers! By the way, Mr. Zhou, can you tell us more interesting stories about you? We all love to hear it! ”

Gossiping, the sailors expressed their thoughts one after another.

Zhou Daoan didn't say much, just sat upright, waved his hand, and a "zheng" string sounded, without him saying more, those listeners had consciously quieted down.

In the blink of an eye, the sound of the piano is like undulating waves, twists and turns, especially a few transpositions have a unique charm, if there is another person who has crossed over from later generations to listen to this song on the spot, he will definitely can't help but hum -

"One wave has not subsided, and another wave has invaded, and the vast sea of people is stormy...... It's too late for a wave, a wave has long passed, and a lifetime is like waking up from a dream...... Deep in the Indian Ocean (Pacific) Bottom Deeply Saddened ......"

Less than 5 minutes into the song, the crew responded with warm applause. Although Zhou Daoan nodded and smiled, he was not happy in his heart-

For several days in a row, he used the guqin to play the popular songs of later generations, although the effect was not bad, but none of them could achieve the effect of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" ("A Laugh in the Sea"). Whether it's during or after playing, there is a lack of a little feeling, and there is no longer that impulse to "can't help it". In other words, without systematic identification, Zhou Daoan also knows that none of his adaptations will become skills.

"What's missing?" Zhou Daoan found that there was a lack of a "way to get rich", and he was a little depressed and began to ponder.

"Oh, dear Zhou, your playing is so wonderful. Compared to those musicians from the East, your style of music is completely different, but it is very much to my appetite! ”

In contemplation, little Abu also stepped onto the deck - he had been listening in the cabin until Zhou Dao'an finished playing.

"What's this piece called?"

"...... 'Sad Indian Ocean'." Zhou Daoan has something on his mind, and he is too lazy to make up a new name.

"Sad? Indian Ocean? Ha, Zhou, are you homesick? That's right, in this vast sea, it was a novelty at first, and it felt magnificent, and after a few days, people would get tired of it. It's really not as good at sea as it is on land! However, the purpose of our voyage is not to enjoy ourselves, but to achieve ......."

While Xiao Abu was pouring chicken soup for Zhou Daoan, a crew member suddenly pointed to the distance and shouted-

"Land! Look, there's land over there! ”

All eyes were drawn to the past. Looking in the direction of the crew's finger, sure enough, on the quiet and gray horizon in the distance, there was really a "lump" black shadow, which was particularly deep. However, even in the darkness of the night, the sailors who had been begging for a living at sea for a long time quickly discerned by experience that the shadow was real, and that it should be a piece of land.

"Land? How can there be land in this area? Myron, the man at the helm of the Sinbadour, said suspiciously, that he was one of the route setters and the de facto captain of the voyage, so he had done his homework on this route. He had the impression that it would take a full month to travel this route before discovering an archipelago that could replenish fresh water. Now that their ship has only been away from the last port for 10 days, how can it touch land?

He immediately had the map taken out of the cabin, spread out on the deck, and looked at it carefully, and finally made sure that his ship had not been deflected, and that the position it was in was being planned. But the land in the distance was real, which made the cautious Myron frown.

"Captain Myron, don't be so nervous!" Seeing that Captain Myron didn't dare to give the order to get close to the land, little Abu stepped forward with a smile and patted the shoulder of the elder who was about to enter old age, "Our trip was not meant to revisit the waterway. Now that we've come across a new land, we're going to have to check it out, and maybe we'll find something my father didn't even find out! Besides, now that the night is dark, the land we see may be just a small island—my father and you would not have been able to see all the scenery for thousands of nautical miles in the past, and it would have been normal to miss one or two islands! Let's lean over and see, and if it's land or islands, we'll go up and see, and it won't take much time. If we find that the situation is not right, we just stay away. ”

There is nothing wrong with Xiao Abu's words, plus the purpose of his voyage is to take risks, and he must go to see if he finds something new, plus he is an "investor", a boss, and has the absolute right to decide.

Myron thought about it and agreed to little Abu's decision. For a moment, the sailors were also excited, and began to steer the big ship towards the land—little Abu had promised the crew that if they discovered a new continent or other great discovery during the journey, everyone would have a great reward!

It's only been half a month since we've been sailing, and there may be gains, how can you not make the crew excited?

It took about two hours to reach a position close to five nautical miles of "land." At this moment, everyone on the ship has determined that the so-called continent is an island. It's just that it doesn't look small, and if you want to walk around it, I'm afraid it will take 1 day.

In the early hours of the morning, the sea is lit only by moonlight. I saw the moonlight shining on the black island, faintly green light - it was the forest on the island, and the light reflected by countless leaves under the moon's illumination showed that the island forest area was large and lush, and it should be an unvisited and uninhabited primeval forest.

Although there is no real continent to be discovered, there may be new discoveries on a large island! So, the enthusiasm of the sailors continued undiminished and continued to bring the ship closer.

Half an hour later, the island was close at hand. As the experienced crew had expected, the island was completely covered in primeval forest, and when you looked closely, you even felt that it was a large tree that had sprung out of thin air on the sea—a huge, banyan-like plant right in front of them, with countless trunks plucked from the ground and gathered together to form a huge body. The canopy of the tree is like a huge hat, giving the illusion of covering the entire island, and on the branches that stretch out on all sides, there are countless vine-like roots that hang down, even leaving the land and hanging down to the sea.
