Chapter 508: Out to Sea
The military building boat docks at the mouth of the sea area on the west side of the Pingfang ferry, the total length is 100 zhang, from the bottom of the building boat to the top, there are 30 meters high, the whole body is purple and black, like a pyramid, the more up, the smaller the space of the building boat, like the upper three floors said by the ram line, the ten people of the Huangfu Shuo have almost filled all the rooms.
On both sides of the ship, there are fifty Dayong's special god-breaking crossbows, three meters long, as thick as an arm's crossbow arrows reflect a cold cold light under the light, a single god-breaking crossbow, the lethality is enough to penetrate the body protection true qi of a god refining master, hundreds of them are fired together, and the yang god retreats, it is a truly scarce military weapon, the entire Yuzhou, no, it should be said that plus several surrounding states, only the military building ship in Yuzhou is equipped with so many god-breaking crossbows.
Next to the military building ship, Huang Fuxu also saw several merchant ships of similar size, but the material of the military building ship is different, although the wood used for shipbuilding is strong, it can never withstand the blow of the grandmaster, and there is no large killing weapon such as the god-breaking crossbow on it.
"The sea has been the most mysterious and wealthy paradise since ancient times, and as long as you have the heart to fight, you can naturally grab countless riches from it. However, there are high returns and high risks, and there are 30 big ships lost in the East China Sea every year, which is a wealth that is fighting for life. ”
Ram Xing walked to the military building ship with Huangfu Shuo and others, and sighed while looking at the merchant ships on both sides, because he understood, so sigh, in the sea, human life is the least valuable thing, a careless, a big fish from the sea will drag you into the sea, and there is no chance to show your head.
"Lord Huangfu, this time we went to sea to Fuso, and invited the oldest and most experienced navigator with the most qualifications, who has traveled back and forth between the two countries a thousand times in his life, and has a strong understanding of the location of the sea and the safety of the sea area. ”
As he spoke, Ram Xing pointed to an old man on the deck of the military building ship who was holding a big cigarette pouch and constantly spitting out white smoke, dressed very brightly, and there was a young and beautiful girl beside him who was beating him on the back, but his skin was wrinkled, his face was full of ravines, and his eyes were muddy like a swamp, which made Xia Pingyue very worried about this person's ability.
"Why, he has to take his granddaughter with him when he goes to sea?"
Ding Ziling's small eyes narrowed, feeling a little funny, he often saw some river boatmen in Dongzhou with their granddaughters out of the boat to fish or carry passengers, but he didn't expect that going to sea was the same, could it be that his granddaughter has the ability to ward off evil spirits and suppress demons and turn evil into good fortune?
Hearing Ding Ziling's words, Ram Xing smiled, shook his head and said, "This brother is wrong, that woman is not Fang Lao's granddaughter, but the eleventh concubine, Fang Lao is old, we find someone, he is not easy to refuse, and he is reluctant to be gentle, we can only let him take his family on the boat." ”
Ding Ziling heard this, the expression on his face was entangled, this was really unexpected, an old man of such an age, half of his feet had stepped into the coffin, a young woman was in her prime, these two people were a couple, it really refreshed his cognition, especially this old man is just a navigator in charge of the direction, not a rich man.
"Say so much what to do, get on board. Huang Fu Shuo shot out a true qi and rolled up everyone, his figure flashed, and the person had already arrived on the deck of the military building, and the old man saw this scene, and he didn't react, just smoked a big cigarette pouch.
"Ram Xing, go to sea as soon as possible, come back from Fusang, I will ask the king of Zhendong for you. ”
The emperor fell to the deck, and saw what the boatmen and guards were tinkering with, and he didn't understand this, so he could only continue to urge.
Ram Xing's face showed a hint of joy, after the martial arts exchange group came back, there would definitely be a reward, he didn't expect that he would be able to get a copy, which made him feel much more motivated, and nodded solemnly, "Lord Huangfu, don't worry, we are all ready, and we can set off in a quarter of an hour at the latest." ”
As he spoke, he asked the emperor to take Huangfu Shuo and others to the center of the building to choose a room, and he took the guards around him to the back of the ship.
Huangfu Xu chose the outermost room on the third floor, the room is not big, there is only one bed, covered with bedding, a set of wooden tables and chairs, a corner of the room, and a chessboard, which should be used to pass the time.
But outside the window is the blue sea, the wind swept by, there are waves flying, bringing in a moist and salty sea breeze, above the sky, there are white winged seabirds circling and flying, occasionally swooping into the sea, plopping into the water, and then spreading their wings and flying, already holding a fat and huge sea fish in their mouths, which looks unique.
At this time, there was a burst of shouting from below the boat, and Huang Fuxu looked out of the window, but it was the head of the ram line, supplemented by the old navigator surnamed Fang, who was holding a sacrificial ceremony.
On the empty deck, at this time stood densely packed with boatmen and armor, the front position to the east, there were pigs, cattle and sheep heads tied with red ropes, rams holding scrolls, reading the sacrificial words, to the effect that I hope that the sea god will bless, this time the sea will go smoothly, and return safely and so on.
The next scene is very interesting, everyone, including the ram line, slashed their palms and dripped blood into the sea in turn, causing many big fish to swell and roll out of the sea, and many idiots also hit the hull of the boat, making a thumping sound, but not even a single paint was rubbed off.
Huang Fuxu was very interested, and walked down the room to join them, and saw a bearded boatman in the middle, asking for information about the sea god.
"The sea god is actually the overlord of a sea area, in the mountains, the beast will have a sense of territory, on the sea, the same, a sea area, thousands of miles, there are large and small strong beasts dominating the rule, at the moment this concave water area is a gentle giant black fish, in the sea strength is comparable to the master of refining gods, wisdom is not low, has rescued many capsized boatmen ashore, was enshrined as a god, no, you see, it is coming. ”
Huang Fuxu was a little disappointed, and thought that this sea god was a strong warrior known as the sun god like the Eastern Emperor, but now he found that it was not, but he was not disappointed for long, and he saw that the water in front of him suddenly turned from blue to black, as if there was a giant beast hidden underwater.
The old man surnamed Fang's face was excited, he shook off the little concubine who was pulling his cuffs, put away the big cigarette pouch, walked to the edge of the deck with his agile steps, and struck three palms in a row, sweeping the heads of the three animals to the black shadow.
At the moment when the heads of the three animals were about to fall into the water, a huge black fish with a round head and an elder's ten-meter-long whiskers surfaced on the surface, opened its mouth to catch the sacrifice, and after the magnificent sound, shook its tail and left.
Seeing this scene, the old man surnamed Fang breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on his folded face, "Okay, let's start the boat." ”
The sound fell, the dense crowd dispersed instantly, the armor and the boatman did not distinguish each other, and went down to the hollow cabin below the deck, after the rumbling sound of the gears turning, the military building ship moved slowly, and then marched towards the sea in the call of the crowd on the shore, under the current, a group of small black fish turned into a ribbon and wandered in front of the military building ship, as if escorting.
