With Chongwen's reasoning, although the pirates were skeptical, their hearts were still a lot more relaxed, and the wine tasted a little. drank until the third pole of the moon, and then the joy was gone, and Chongwen was naturally in a good mood. Although there are some twists and turns, they are officially friends with the Hirado Merchant Gang, and the support of these people is crucial to the survival of Ryuo Island, and no amount of gold can buy it.

Seeing off the guests, Sayuri arranged a luxurious barrel bath to relieve his fatigue, but unfortunately Chongwen couldn't feel the gentleness of the Bamboo Forest Garden, was it because this flower world lacked a fiery soul?

Changing into Yanju clothes, Chongwen, who was refreshed, walked into the study. When you open the window, you can see Hirado Bay, which is covered with boat lights, and the refreshing sea breeze blows with a slight salty smell. This is the place where normal people should live, but Chongwen is used to the boat, the wind and waves of the sea and the turbulence of the cabin, and he can't adapt to it for a while, especially the human lights and buildings block the line of sight, which makes him extremely uncomfortable.

He left the window, picked up a volume of "The Secret Biography of the Stone Chamber" and flipped through it, this is a chess scripture, Chongwen was interested, put on the chessboard, and silently played the chess game. On a silent winter night, a light is like a bean, and the chess pieces make a crisp sound on the lacquer chessboard, reminiscent of the faint more in the distant Dakang City.

Hanako tiptoed into the study, gently cut off the lights, and asked in a low voice, "It's not early, aren't you restless when you go to sea?"

Chongwen put down the chess scripture, stretched his waist, and said, "I can't sleep, I'm waiting for someone." ”

Hanako asked puzzled, "It's so late, who will come?"

Chongwen sighed: "Yes, he is really a villain, and he doesn't care about the fatigue of others. ”

Hanako didn't understand what Chongwen said, so she simply stopped guessing, she gently picked up a robe and draped it on Chongwen, and then silently retreated to the outer study, fiddling with a pair of dominoes to ponder the mystery of this Dakang artifact.

Sure enough, in the middle of the night, Menzi reported that Wu Zhi, the owner of Wufeng, had come to visit. Everything was as Chongwen expected, but the little maid Hanako was quite surprised, going to sea and doing things like a god, it was so wonderful.

In fact, this matter is also very simple, Wu Zhi's recklessness damaged his prestige in the Hirado merchant gang, and also threatened the safety of Hirado and Gohodo. The best way to redeem it is to quickly reach an understanding with Longwang Island. What Chongwen said today, Xu Weixue's uncle and nephew must have returned to Wu Zhi overnight, can he still sit still?

Hanako led Wu Zhi into the study, served a cup of tea, and then quietly retreated.

Seeing Hanako withdraw, Wu Zhi stood up, dusted off his robe and was about to give Chongwen a big salute, Chongwen hurriedly stepped up and grabbed him, and said, "Mr. Wufeng, what are you doing, is this to torment the juniors?"

Wu Zhi said: "I am old and confused, I misunderstood the goodwill of the big sea, and I will take revenge, and I will be responsible for all deaths." ”

Chongwen pressed Wu Zhi on the official hat chair, looked at him and said: "In this troubled world, credulity is the beginning of destruction, and only people like Mr. Wufeng can I trust it." ”

Wu Zhi silently opened a green cloth burden on the table of the Four Immortals, and said: "There are a lot of adults in Da Wai Hai, but I once told the Ming Mei master that if I misunderstand Da Wai Hai, I am willing to break my family and make amends for Da Wai Hai." This thing is so expensive, all my family property together is not enough in case, and now it belongs to the big sea. ”

Chongwen picked up this black thing the size of a basin and watched it under the lamp, this thing was not gold or jade, wood or stone, the black paint seemed smooth, but if you looked closely, there were countless tiny pores. In this world, if you want to say that Chongwen's vision is the first, no one dares to say second, the palace is in the palace, and he has never seen any rare treasures, but he can't even see what kind of material this is, and he doesn't know what it is or what it is for.

He raised his head and looked at Wu Zhi blankly.

Wu Zhi smiled slightly and said: "When the Haikou besieged the Qianhu in Zhoushan, I led the fleet to save the people of the city, and I was also injured, so I healed in a dilapidated Taoist temple outside the city. That viewer is always 80 years old, but he has a good hand that not only healed my wounds, but also gave it to me because I have thousands of people alive.

Later, I was designed to be captured, broke out of the siege, looked for the route of the country, and in a hurry, where was there food and drinking water on the ship. We have been drifting on the sea for more than 40 days, but it is good that there is no food, there are countless fish and shrimp in the sea, and no one will starve to death. There is no fresh water to ask for our own lives, and without it, we will all die of thirst on the sea. Da went to sea and said, is this a treasure?"

Chongwen shook his head and said, "I can't see what this is made of." ”

Wu Zhi said: "This is a well fish bone!"

Chongwen was taken aback, and the gloomy conversation between the chief soldier Shun and Liu Guan in Shengzhou Port suddenly appeared in his mind, there are four treasures in the East China Sea: the water basin, the purple snail bowl, the mirage gourd, and the well fish bone, this thing is one of the four treasures. In this way, Wu Zhi's words are true, this is indeed a treasure in the world that can not be found.

He looked up at Wu Zhi and asked, "How can this thing save people's lives?"

Wu Zhi said: "Legend has it that there is a fish in the North Underworld, whose name is Kun, which can be turned into a bird and fly directly for 90,000 miles. This Kun beast drinks seawater and can spew out a hundred zhang of sweet spring from the top of its head, because it has this thing on its skull, which can turn seawater into fresh water, like a sweet well, so this thing is called a well fish bone. ”

He picked up the teacup casually, poured the tea soup into the bones, poured off the tea residue in the cup, and poured the water from the well fish bones into the teacup again, and the golden tea soup had become clear and transparent. Wu Zhi handed the teacup to Chongwen, Chongwen took the teacup and drank it all, a cool and sweet breath penetrated through his chest and abdomen, and he couldn't help but feel happy.

Wu Zhi said: "Back then, we relied on this thing to turn seawater into fresh water, and finally found the country. With this thing, our people at sea are equivalent to one more life, so the well fish bone is one of the four treasures of the East China Sea. ”

Chongwen waved his hand again and again: "The gentleman doesn't take the love of others, how can I take Mr. Wufeng's treasure because of trivial matters, this matter will never be mentioned again, you take it back, baby." ”

Wu Zhi said: "If you listen to me, it's not too late to excuse yourself." ”

Chongwen said helplessly: "If you have something to say, please speak." ”

Wu Zhi stroked his beard and said slowly: "This well fish bone is one of the four treasures of the East China Sea, and it is said that the one who obtained the four treasures is Wang Donghai. When the old man was young, he suddenly got this thing, and he had the ambition to dominate the East China Sea, but for more than 30 years, I have not seen the other three treasures, but I have been restless and frightened day and night. ”

Chongwen asked, "Why is this?"

Wu Zhi said: "Since you want Wang Donghai, you must have the consciousness of a king." Over the years, I have gone through a lot of difficulties and dangers, but I have built a Hirado Castle, which is not the spirit of a king, and the vast East China Sea, Hirado is really not even a grain of dust. Only then did I realize that the destiny of heaven was not in me, so this well fish bone was not a blessing in my hands, but a curse.

I don't want to, and I can't stand in the way of the king, I have long wanted to give this thing to the strongman. But over the years, I haven't met a hero of the sea with the demeanor of a king. Until I met the big sea, my mind and strategy were too ordinary people, and I couldn't reach them.

A ship on Longwang Island dared to destroy the eels, resist the fish king, break into the country, open up sea routes, subdue the squatters, and crisscross Sakai Port. I have never seen a hero such as the Dragon King Island, if there is really a hegemon in the East China Sea, who can it be if it is not a big sea? ”

Chongwen looked at this treasure of the East China Sea and finally realized Wu Zhi's mood. I don't know how many people covet this thing, it's strange if you don't worry about it every day when you hold it in your hand, Wu Zhi has endured it for more than 30 years, and he is really fed up. Once he took over this treasure, Wu Zhi's situation came to his head, wouldn't he pick up a red-hot briquette.

If you don't take it, it will be ridiculous, Jing Yugu doesn't dare to ask for it, and you still want to be in the big position of Shenzhou. After worrying for a long time, a flash of inspiration appeared, and he secretly screamed ashamed, how did he change back to the Chongwen Tianzi on the throne. He laughed out loud and said, "Mr. Wufeng made a mistake and almost fell in love with your Tao again. ”

Wu Zhi looked at Chongwen in surprise and said, "The old man is sincere, and he has no other intentions. ”

Chongwen said with a smile: "I'm not suspicious of you, but I suddenly figured out this truth: the destiny of heaven is in Germany, how can it be in a strange treasure? Emperor Yang of Sui still has few treasures, and Qin II has no strange treasures, because he is deaf and immoral, and the country is destroyed for the world to laugh."

Even if I have the Four Treasures, can I command the East China Sea? Vainly claiming the Mandate of Heaven can only be the laughing stock of the heroes of the sea. The real king must be Li Donghai, the living people, supported by all the people, even if there is no treasure, he is also the king. How shrewd Mr. Wufeng was, how could he believe the nonsense of these sea savages. ”

Chongwen's words made Wu Zhi stunned, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Chongwen's words were reasonable, and he didn't rely on any treasure in Hirado, but a public heart. Alas, these 30 years of worrying are really confused... He slowly raised his head, looked at Chongwen and said: "A word to wake up the dreamer, today I am completely convinced to go to sea, and I will never be burdened by vain prophecy again." ”

Chongwen said with a smile: "The well fish bone is a good weapon to save lives, not a sign of destiny, he should be with the person who sails away." In your hands, in my hands, hidden in the cellars, covered with dust and nets, isn't that a wasted treasure?

I thought it was supposed to be at the Hirado Mazu Temple, which was used to open up new routes. Beiju Luzhou is so vast, there are always heroes who are not afraid of death and life, and open up trade routes for future generations. At that time, we invited Mazu Niangniang, and let the heroes who went to sea sail with this treasure Wouldn't it be a little more and less dangerous?"

Wu Zhi slapped his thigh and shouted: "Okay! That's it!"
