Chapter 2 Against the Wind

Ji Ni's footsteps of quickly swimming back and forth suddenly stopped, and a look of doubt appeared in his eyes, he looked at Ye Mo and asked: "This kind of sail is very wonderful, and it can travel thousands of miles a day under the tailwind, but once it encounters a headwind, how can it go upstream?" ”

Ye Mo praised and said with a smile: "The elders are really wise, and these problems can be regarded as upper and lower problems." ”

Ji Ni's old face was slightly red, and he smiled awkwardly, but he didn't care.

Ye Mo said slowly: "The wind is the driving force of the sailboat, and when the wind is down, the sailboat can open its sails and follow the direction of the wind to keep moving forward.

When the wind is against the wind, it is impossible for the sailboat to sail in a straight line smoothly, at this time, the main sail and auxiliary sail of the ship should be adjusted, the bow of the ship should be obliquely facing the direction of the wind, and then the angle of the sail should be adjusted, so that the wind blows to the sail, and a force is obliquely forward, and the existing tail rudder is improved, and the ship will move forward obliquely.

After a while, turn the bow of the boat so that the other side of the boat is diagonally facing the wind, and the sailboat will move diagonally forward in the other direction, as is the case with sailboats, sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right, zigzag against the wind.

This method of driving is called windward ......."

Ye Mo stopped, looked at the old man and looked at him in a daze, feeling that he might not have heard clearly, so he put down his backpack, opened the zipper, and took out a drawing from it, feeling a sigh of emotion in his heart.

In the past, let's go over, people, you can't always live in the past, as long as you keep the good past in your heart, it is the best memory of your relatives and friends in your previous life.

Put the drawing on the small table, take out the three-color ballpoint pen from the jacket pocket with your right hand, and start to draw a diagram of the sail against the wind in the blank space on the back of the drawing.

Red represents the direction of the wind, blue represents the sails, and green represents the currents and boats.

He continued: "In addition, there are two types of sails: crosssails and longitudinal sails, the direction of the sails is crossed with the hull, and the direction of the long-term sails is in line with the direction of the long axis of the hull.....

Ji Ni was almost stupid, from the time Ye Mo opened the zipper, closed the zipper, took out the drawing, and took out the pen, he was completely stupid, and he didn't listen to what Ye Mo said at all.

What kind of object is this in his heart now, it's so simple to pull and pull, this burden-like thing opens and closes?

And this one after another, so thin, so light, just for writing and drawing? This is much better than bamboo slips, but this one is so thin, how many bamboo slips can be saved!

Oh my God, where did all this come from, living for such a long time, it's unheard of, unseen, it's really in vain.

What? This thin wooden stick-like thing, can you still write words? And so much more, so small? Or with three colors?

What? What? Turn the thin wooden stick over, use the top protrusion, and rub it back and forth a few times, and the lines drawn are gone? Hiss...... Artifacts, these are all artifacts......

Not only Ji Ni, but even the guards behind him, their eyes were about to fall out, completely subverting their cognition.

Ye Mo looked at the stupid elder, completely ignoring the gloomy eyes of the guards behind him, and the knife that had been quietly drawn, and the hand holding the handle of the knife, the green tendons were raised high.

Ji Ni swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and asked astringently, "Young man...... These objects...... Are they all from your master's family? ”

Ye Mo couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he heard this, and said secretly: Careless, at this time, paper has not been invented, and this ballpoint pen has not been invented, isn't this a disaster for yourself, hey, it's still too young......

Seeing that he didn't make a sound, Ji Ni's expectant eyes became brighter, and then asked, "Your master's sect was in a catastrophe, and only the young man survived?" ”

The guard behind him involuntarily took a step forward, the knife in his hand quietly raised.

Ye Mo couldn't help but sigh, and said gloomily: "Back to the elders, there is indeed only one person left in this master's sect, and these items are all made by the senior brothers of this sect for many years of painstaking research. ”

Ji Ni was obviously excited, his chest rose and fell slightly, and the beard under his forehead was not windless, and he stretched out his hand to block the knife that the guard had already raised, and scolded: "Get out!" ”

Then he ignored them, looked at Ye Mo with expectant eyes, and continued to ask, "Can these items be made by the young man?" ”

Ye Mo hesitated for a moment, thought about it and said, "This paper can be made as long as you experiment a few more times, but is this one...... The trouble is tight, and it can't be done without more than ten years, mainly because the materials and production tools can't be made yet. ”

Ji Ni stretched out his hand, patted Ye Mo's shoulder heavily, and laughed: "Okay, good, your master really has no intention of the realm of immortals, although he has suffered misfortune, but God still blesses me to cross the country and give me a young man, who can help my king to destroy Wu as soon as possible, and be ashamed!" ”

What? Yue Guo? Vat Wu?

Hiss......

Okay, the worry in my heart is conclusive, this dare is really the late Spring and Autumn Period, and it is also Wu Yue fighting for hegemony, Gou Jian lying on the salary to taste the guts, this period of Yue, is a vassal country of Wu, and poor and backward, but also famine, people live a very difficult life, my God......

Ye Mo wanted to cry, but he couldn't cry, and he didn't dare to cry, so he had to endure it, and it was very hard.

The more Ji Ni looked at this young man, the happier he became, with a kind smile on his face, and asked lovingly: "Xiao Nianlang's surname?" is so alone, are you willing to follow the old man? ”

Ye Mo bowed and said: "The late birth of Ye Mo, is the name of the teacher, thank the elders for their love, the late life is grateful, but when the master is alive, he often teaches all the disciples under the sect, all those who come from the Zongheng Chinese sect, use the skills learned in this sect, stand up to the heavens and the earth, benefit one side, do not condescend to others, survive for a lifetime, even if it is dormant, it can only be one autumn and one winter, the order of the mentor does not dare to violate it in the later life, and I hope the elders will forgive." ”

The guards outside the hatch glared angrily, if it wasn't for Ji Ni to stop him, Ye Mo would have been divided into several sections.

Ji Ni didn't care, and smiled: "What a young man, with backbone and ambition, although the old man has the heart of loving and cherishing talents, but he also knows that people have their own ambitions and cannot be forced, and the old man is waiting for Ye Mo to achieve his wishes as soon as possible, and if there is a time of difficulty in the future, you can go to Wangcheng to find my Ji Ni." ”

"Thank you to Ji Ni Ji elders, the late born Ye Mo will be a ...... in the future Ji Ni ..... Ji Ran? Ye Mo's eyes widened.

Ji Ni was stunned, and still asked: "Ye Xiaolang knows the old man Ji Ran's name?" ”

Ye Mo's mouth was bitter, and he said secretly: This Ji Ni can be described as famous, he is one of the five great doctors of the Yue Kingdom, and he is also the master of Fan Li, who is known as the Shang Sage and boating on Xishi Taihu Lake.

Ye Mo gave Ji Ni a deep salute even more respectfully, and said: "In the late life, Ye Mo saw Dr. Ji, and the teacher often commented on all the heroes in the world when he was alive, and Dr. Ji should be one of them, and told the disciples that if he can meet all kinds of heroes in the future, he must not be rude, and he needs to concentrate on seeking advice. ”

Ji Ni laughed: "The kid is rude, if you block the words at both ends, you will say everything, no matter what, you can still mention the old man and forgive you for thinking of a character like your teacher." ”

Then a pair of bright eyes looked at him and asked, "Where does Ye Shaolang want to enter the WTO from?" ”

Ye Mo walked out of the cabin, looked at the mountains that appeared faintly not far away, and the hazy mountain village at the foot of the mountain, and said word by word: "Since God let me appear in Yue Country, then I will be in Yue Country, and the mountain village in front of me will enter the WTO." ”

After Ye Mo said this, he was relieved, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his back underwear was also soaked with cold sweat, and there was also a faint sound of Ji Ni breathing a sigh of relief in his ears, and the light sound of the guard's horizontal knife into the sheath.

Life hangs by a thread, if half a sentence is wrong, I am afraid that the corpse has already sunk to the bottom of the river by now.

When the boatman withdrew the pedals, Ye Mo hesitated, opened his backpack, took out the model sailboat he had just bought for his son from it, sighed, threw it hard towards the boat, and then strode towards the unknown mountain village.

As soon as the guard stretched out his hand, he caught the model, and when Ji Ni and several people saw such a god-like sailboat, they were speechless for a moment, and let the boat go all the way down the water......

......

After the Puyang River flows through Zhuji, there are many names, but the most famous one is called Huanjiang.

Huanjiang is named after Xizi in the riverside Huansha, but now there is still only one name, Puyang River, and the name Huanjiang will not appear until hundreds of years later.

A Puyang River divides the village of Ramie into East Village and West Village.

Compared with previous years, this year's rainy season came earlier, and the rain in early spring has already splashed the peach blossoms all over the ground in March, especially on the shore of the West Village.

Since the rain came earlier than usual, the water of the Pujiang River was more abundant than in previous years, and the water that used to be clear has become turbid.

Ramie Village is a very ordinary small mountain village, most of the residents in the village are mainly surnamed Shi, and their ancestors have relied on men to go up the mountain to collect firewood and women to make linen cloth for a living, so life is very hard.

Especially in the past ten years, the population has withered severely, the amount of linen has decreased, and life has become more miserable.

Shi Yiguang didn't know how to do it for a little half a month, his waist was often sore, his lower abdomen was sometimes swollen, sometimes he was faintly painful, and he was upset.

Early this morning, just got out of bed, before standing firmly, there was a sharp pain in the lower abdomen, more painful than before, I couldn't help but be shocked, I hurriedly went out of the house, and saw my father who was drying in the yard and digging out hemp silk from the hemp skin, hesitated, opened his mouth, and it was difficult to speak, so he had to twist his body, went out of the yard, and walked a few steps into the house of the seventh aunt next door.

For about half an hour, I don't know what the seventh aunt next door said, Shi Yiguang kneading the corners of his clothes with his fingers, twisting and walking out of the courtyard door, hanging his head slightly, his face was crimson, a pair of bright eyes, the water was full of shyness, looking left and right, like stealing the hen that had just laid eggs.

A ray of sunlight pierced through the cracked clouds, and the fluff that happened to shine obliquely on her bare milky neck immediately turned a pale crimson, reflecting a mesmerizing halo.

The seventh aunt leaned against the door, looking at Shi Yiguang's slender figure moving like a willow, her eyes were full of envy, and she couldn't help but murmur: The Shi family gave birth to a good woman, and it is difficult to find a second one in Man Wuyue, I really don't know who will accumulate virtue in the future and can marry her.
