Chapter 016: The Boundless Sea
"What are your plans for the little brother in the future?" asked Xu Zhongda.
Gong Huaiming replied: "If possible, I still hope to find a way home." Until then, I hope to find a place to stay. ”
Xu Zhongda hurriedly said: "I don't know what the little brother thinks of our Xu firm? Our Xu firm has never treated his subordinates badly, especially a person with skills like the little brother, who is even more valued." If the little brother doesn't mind, how about settling down in our Xu business for the time being?"
Gong Huaiming couldn't ask for it, so he pretended to hesitate and pushed the boat down the river. Xu Zhongda was overjoyed and first arranged a place for Gong Huaiming to live on the ship. Several of the sailors died in the confrontation with the pirates, and their bodies were buried at sea and thrown into the sea, as is customary. The place left by the dead sailor was enough to house Gong Huaiming.
Gong Huaiming conquered the hearts of the sailors with his performance, and he easily integrated into the group. After that, Gong Huaiming learned how to sail with the sailors, and at the same time explored the information he was interested in through various methods.
More than half a month later, Gong Huaiming finally figured out what he wanted to know, the sea he was in now was called the Boundless Sea. No one knows how big this boundless sea is, it is said that it is hundreds of thousands of miles away from east to west, north and south, and whether it is or not, the sailors do not know, and it is not clear.
The homes of the sailors and the base camp of the Xu family are on the largest island of the Dongkoma Islands - Qianli Island, in the northwest of the Dongkoma Islands, nearly 10,000 miles away, there is also an archipelago called Yongyi Islands, in the northeast of the Dongkoma Islands, also nearly 10,000 miles away, there is also an archipelago, called the Thousand Ice Islands. These three archipelagos constitute an isolated world, and the business of the Xu firm is mainly between the three archipelagos, and what it usually does is to reload goods back and forth before these three archipelagos to earn interest differences.
Beyond the three archipelagos, within 10,000 miles, there are no more human footprints, and no one knows what it looks like 10,000 miles away. As for how the people living on these three islands came here, only God knows.
Each of the three archipelago has a well-known immortal master, the one who shelters the Dongju Islands is Hongyang Zhenren, the one who shelters the Yongyi Islands is the Immortal Master Baihua Fairy, and the one who protects the Thousand Ice Islands is the Immortal Master Qianbing Zhenren. The vast majority of people living in these three islands only know whether the three immortal masters are male or female, and they don't know anything about what they look like, how high they are to cultivate on that island, and how high their cultivation realm is. Even Xu Zhongda didn't know anything.
Gong Huaiming knew that everything was in a hurry, he had just joined the Xu family, and many things were too tightly listened to, which was likely to arouse the suspicion of Xu Zhongda and others, in that case, it would not be beautiful, so Gong Huaiming just did his duty and did a good job of the work that Xu Zhongda arranged for him, and the rest of the time, Gong Huaiming was mainly used to study his "trophies".
When escaping from the palace, Gong Huaiming once made a fortune from a dead man, and from the body of the junior cultivator who was strangled to death by the Thunder Daoist, he searched for a jade pendant and a money bag.
When the jade pendant was transmitted by Gong Huaiming, because of the reason of protecting Gong Huaiming, the aura was exhausted and became a piece of waste jade, the original emerald green color was gone, replaced by a miserable white, at first glance, it looked like it was made of lime plaster, worthless. Gong Huaiming once held the side of the boat to play, and accidentally dropped it into the endless sea, Gong Huaiming sighed twice, and went with it.
The money bag looks simple and unpretentious, no different from the wallet sewn by ordinary people with cloth, but after careful study, Gong Huaiming inadvertently found that this is not a money bag, but a bag with many times more space than the outer volume.
Gong Huaiming regretted that the storage bag that he brought with him was not very large. After repeated experiments, Gong Huaiming determined that it was only one foot square, and if he enlarged the rice, he would put more than a dozen catties at most, and he couldn't even put twenty catties. But no matter what, this is a treasure after all, and ordinary people may not see it once in their lives, but Gong Huaiming can actually have one, which is much luckier than most people.
There were not many things in the storage bag, and a few pieces that Gong Huaiming didn't know what they were, but what interested him the most was a thin booklet, which recorded a cultivation exercise, called "Qi Induction Technique".
"Qi Induction Technique" is a very common basic cultivation method in the cultivation world, which is used to lay the foundation for junior cultivators who have not yet built a foundation, this exercise can only be said to be slightly stronger than garbage in terms of grade, and this point is estimated to be less than the thickness of a piece of rice paper.
Gong Huaiming didn't know how rubbish the "Qi Induction Technique" was, and after he got this cultivation method, he was like a treasure. He planned to use the "Qi Induction Technique" as the starting point for him to embark on the path of cultivation. However, there is determination, but Gong Huaiming's own conditions have become the biggest obstacle to his cultivation of the "Qi Induction Technique", and this obstacle is Gong Huaiming's knowledge level.
Gong Huaiming is not illiterate, since he was a child, his parents taught him to read and write, and during the three months in the palace, from the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, Gong Huaiming also learned a lot of knowledge. There is no problem with using this knowledge in governing the country and in ordinary life, but if you want to use it in cultivation, there will be a big problem.
Don't look at the "Qi Trick" is very rubbish, and its words are also full of a lot of proper nouns in cultivation, these nouns cover acupoints, meridians, realms, cultivation and other levels, except for a very small number of nouns that can look at the meaning of the text, the others are completely heavenly books for Gong Huaiming, people know him, but he doesn't know people. Gong Huaiming couldn't even read it, let alone practice according to the "Qi Technique".
Fortunately, Gong Huaiming has a stupid way, when he was a child, his mother often taught him to read a hundred times, and his righteousness is self-evident, isn't "Qi Formula" also recorded in the book?
When Gong Huaiming was reciting "Qi Induction Formula" day by day, he quietly slipped away. In the blink of an eye, Xu's Ocean Ship spanned thousands of miles of sea, and after more than four months, it finally set off from the Dongju Islands and arrived at its destination, the Yongyi Islands.
When the outline of the outermost island of the Yongyi Islands appeared in the field of vision of the sailors, there was a cheer on the ocean ship, and anyone who stayed at sea for more than four months and did not go crazy was considered to have a good psychological quality.
Gong Huaiming boarded the ship halfway and stayed on the ocean for more than three months, even if he was reciting "Qi Trick" every day, he was very bored. In the past, he had heard people talk about how to go to sea by boat, and there was no lack of envy in his words, but the next time, when he heard someone say sailing in this tone, he had to reason with the other party.
