Chapter 025: News
More than ten days have passed, Gong Huaiming's life on the ocean is extremely fulfilling, including Zhang Dahai, a group of martial artists have taught him a lot of experience, including fighting, identifying weapons, and navigation, to name a few, complicated and practical. It's not that the martial artists are particularly generous, but they all understand that on the sea, any situation can be encountered, and only when all their companions are strong can they become a powerful arm to each other in the event of an emergency, rather than being a burden to each other.
In addition to learning from others, Gong Huaiming is also doing two things: reciting the "Qi Drawing Technique" and practicing axe skills. The former is his dream, and the latter is his capital to save his life. Gong Huaiming has already selected Xu's firm as his foothold, and it can be expected that Xu's firm will often arrange for him to go to sea to escort in the future, and it will definitely not work without kung fu. Only when the Xu family firm gained a firm foothold and accumulated enough money and food could he have the opportunity to find a possible surname for the cultivators.
Gong Huaiming's diligence and hard work, Xu Zhongda saw it in his eyes and was happy in his heart, and he liked Gong Huaiming even more, not only asked the chef on the ship to open a small stove for him, but also asked Xu Hu and Xu Bao to take time to teach Gong Huaiming some fist and foot kung fu. Gong Huaiming is not a person who doesn't know what to do, and he secretly decided in his heart that he must find an opportunity to repay Xu Zhongda for taking care of him during this time in the future.
At this time, Gong Huaiming was practicing martial arts on the deck of the Ocean Ship, surrounded by a few sailors who had nothing to do, and applauded him sparsely. Suddenly, a water finger pointed to the sky, "Look, Immortal Master." ”
Gong Huaiming looked up, and sure enough, there were two cultivators in the sky who were flying in the sky with spiritual weapons. He stopped, holding on to the side of the ship with the sailors, and looked at the two cultivators with envy.
Don't look at the Yongyi Islands, there are seven or eight hundred cultivators, but on Baihua Island, it is difficult to find their traces, their range of activities is relatively fixed, if it is not particularly necessary, basically they will not take the initiative to mix with the secular people. Dealing with secular people will make them feel that the price is cheap, like a tiger that is degraded and goes to play with rats, which makes it difficult for them to accept.
Because of this, cultivators flying in the sky can become a landscape in the eyes of ordinary people, and once a similar situation occurs, ordinary people usually stop what they are doing and look at it with envy and jealousy.
Gong Huaiming looked at it for a while, and suddenly found two problems, these two cultivators were women, and the direction in which they flew was impartial, and they were heading at the ocean number of the Xu family's firm. At the same time, there were two more shrewd sailors who discovered these two problems, and they hurriedly notified Xu Zhongda, who was staying in the cabin to take inventory.
As soon as Xu Zhongda walked to the deck, the two female cultivators really landed on the bow of the ship. Xu Zhongda didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to the end, "Zhongda greeted the two immortal masters." I don't know what the two immortal masters commanded?"
"Mr. Xu, we are here on the orders of our master this time, and we have a few important words to tell you. The taller of the two female cultivators said, her expression was arrogant, and there was not much difference between her and the other cultivators when they met the worldly people.
Xu Zhongda hurriedly invited the two female cultivators into the cabin, and after a stick of incense, Xu Zhongda respectfully sent the two female cultivators out. The female cultivators really didn't stay long, and drove away with their respective spiritual weapons.
Xu Zhongda's face was gloomy and not good-looking. Xu Hu took a step forward and asked cautiously, "Shaodong, what's wrong?"
Xu Zhongda sighed, "The Hundred Flowers Palace got the news that the white-faced silver Jiao Yin Haidong planned to be unfavorable to us, and he spent a lot of money to invite an immortal master, wanting to set up an ambush on the sea route and attack us when we returned." ”
Everyone gasped, they were all ordinary people, and they were remembered by the immortal master, and the consequences were extremely worrying, and the situation was quite bad.
Xu Hu thought for a while and suggested: "Shaodong, why don't we hire one or two immortal masters to escort us?" Although their commissions are more expensive, but with them, Yin Haidong has to weigh his own weight if he wants to move us." ”
Xu Zhongda shook his head, "It's not impossible to hire an immortal master, it's just that their commission is too expensive, and the moment they ask to board the ship, they will pay off their surnames at once, and they won't pay on credit." The little money we made this time is not enough at all, not to mention, I have bought some more goods, and the money is even more insufficient. ”
Xu Hu's face turned pale, "Young owner, what should I do?"
Xu Zhongda said: "Don't panic, the two immortal masters who came just now came on the orders of the Hundred Flowers Fairy, and the Hundred Flowers Fairy allowed our Ocean Ship to fly the flag of the Hundred Flowers Palace, in this way, we have two flags, both protected by Hongyang Zhenren and protected by the Hundred Flowers Fairy, as long as the immortal master hired by Yin Haidong did not eat the bear's heart and leopard gall, he would not dare to provoke the dignity of the Divine Mansions and the Hundred Flowers Palace at the same time." In addition, the two immortal masters just now also told us a safe route, as long as we follow this route, the possible surname of meeting Yin Haidong will be reduced to the lowest. Xu Hu, you take people to find all the brothers who were playing outside, we have to hurry up and prepare and set off as soon as possible. ”
Xu Zhongda gave an order, everyone was busy, and Gong Huaiming was given the task of strengthening the vigilance around the Ocean Ship, and being careful not to let strangers approach the Ocean Ocean and sabotage the sea ship.
In the afternoon of the same day, Xu Zhongda and all the sailors held a ceremony to go to sea, and the next day, when the sky was just dawn and the other ships docked at the dock had not moved, Xu's ocean ship was the first to sail out of the port and sail towards the vast sea.
This trip to sea was the second time in Gong Huaiming's life, and he was not familiar with the boundless sea environment, and he had no idea where the Ocean was heading and where it was going. In addition to him, the ocean ship is full of old sailors, at least a dozen times to go to sea experience, a few days after the ocean ship left the port, Zhang Dahai told Gong Huaiming that this is a route between the Thousand Ice Islands and the Yongyi Islands, among the many round-trip routes between the two islands, this route has the most sea ships, and it is a relatively safe one, even if the white-faced silver Jiao Yin Haidong wants to retaliate, basically he will not choose this route.
Sure enough, the ocean-going ship of the Xu Merchant has been on the waterway for more than a month, and has not encountered any emergencies, let alone encountered pirates, even if it is a big wind and waves, it has not encountered a single time, and everything has gone smoothly and surprisingly. If there is any situation, it is that during the voyage, I encountered two suspicious seagoing ships, they once fell behind the ocean-going ship of the Xu Firm, followed for a long time, and then probably feared the two flags hanging on the mast, and finally chose to retreat.
