When Xiao Yu arrived at the beach, people were already boarding the boat.In the night, Xiao Yu saw the king ship that Ji Shan mentioned. Although he had seen such a huge aircraft carrier, he was still quite shocked by this two-masted ship. After all, it was an era of such low productivity. Surprised and pleasantly surprised.Such a ship should be able to withstand the wind and waves and travel across the ocean.

If the matter can be resolved smoothly this time, he will ask for this ship, and then organize a caravan to go to the Indochina Peninsula, Southeast Asian Islands, South Asia, and even West Asia to collect supplies while doing business.

Xiao Yu shook his head, this is not something to consider now, how to get over this difficulty right now.

Xiao Yu and Ji Hai were the last to get on the boat. They took the small boat to the big boat first, and then climbed up the big boat along the rope ladder.This big boat is really big. If it weren't for other boats that need to be controlled manually, more than 300 people in the village could take this boat.

After everyone was in the boat, they rowed the boat out to sea.When they left, they not only took away the pirate's boat, but also took away the villagers' own small fishing boats, so as not to leave a way for the pirates to retreat.

The boat broke down in the middle of the sea, the boat was tied to the big boat, and everyone in the small boat got on the big boat.I can't see the land, only the vast sea around me, only the sound of the wind and waves beating against the bottom of the boat, the weather is fine tonight, the wind is light and the waves are not too big, the big boat is like a gentle cradle.

Xiao Yu was sitting on the deck, facing the direction he came from, and looking at the direction of Zhoucheng. He didn't know how the battle in Zhoucheng was going, whether Linzhi's plan was going well, and whether he and Jishan were safe.Although Rinzhi's martial arts are strong, it is quite dangerous to attack the leader of the pirates among so many pirates. Can Rinzhi escape unscathed?

The more he thought about it, the fear became more like silkworms spinning, wrapping him tightly layer by layer, and he seemed to see Pei Linzhi lying on the ground covered in blood again, unconscious.Xiao Yu shivered suddenly, cold sweat broke out on his back, and when the sea breeze blew, he sneezed violently.

Ji Hai came over immediately: "Lang Jun, are you cold? Get in the cabin quickly, it's windy outside, be careful of catching a cold, don't let my master miss you."

When Xiao Yu heard what he said, he stopped trying to be brave, got off the deck, and returned to the cabin.The structure of this ship is quite mature, with sails and masts on the deck, cabins below the deck, where people move around, and cargo holds and water tanks under the activity cabins, which are used to store goods and drinking water.

Since the pirate ship is full of men, the cabin is not clean and has some peculiar smell. This is why Xiao Yu is unwilling to stay in the cabin. Fortunately, the peculiar smell is not too obvious. After staying for a long time, he forced himself to get used to it. .

The villagers are all resting in the cabin. Except for the ignorant children, no one can sleep. It is strange to be able to fall asleep after such an accident. People are talking in low voices, guessing what happened tonight.

Xiao Yu couldn't sleep either, he had to find something to distract himself, otherwise his mind would be filled with images of Pei Linzhi soaked in blood.So I went to visit the whole ship. The cargo hold under the rest cabin was divided into three cabins, one for water storage and two for storage. It seems that the technology of watertight compartments has not been fully promoted at this time.If you want to go on ocean voyages, the ship has to be modified to make watertight compartments, so that the safety factor of voyages can be increased several times.

Xiao Yu was immersed in his own thoughts when someone patted him on the shoulder: "Mr. Xiao."

"Brother Meng." Xiao Yu turned to look at Meng Hong.

Meng Hong said: "I don't know exactly what happened, I only know that Pei Langjun went to fight against the pirates alone?"

Xiao Yu glanced at the villagers in the cabin, shook his head, did not answer the topic, but said, "Brother Meng, have you seen such a big boat before?"

Meng Hong shook his head: "I haven't seen it before, this is the first time I've seen such a big boat."

Xiao Yu said: "It's also the first time I've seen it. I once met a Persian who came to Da'an by boat. He told me what he had seen and heard. There are many islands and lands, and there are many countries with different scenery and customs. There are Hu people with blue eyes, yellow hair and white skin, and Hu people with dark skin all over their bodies. Those places are rich in products, rich in various spices, strange Exotic beasts, and some places are rich in a high-yield lumpy root food, which is sweeter and more fragrant than taro, and is extremely drought-tolerant. There is also a drought-tolerant plant whose plant looks like sorghum, but bears ears as thick as a child's arm Shaped fruit can also satisfy the hunger, and can replace grains."

Meng Hong was aroused by his description: "Surely there is such a magical species?"

Xiao Yu nodded: "The Persians swear by it, I am very yearning for it. If we can get these kinds of crops, when the drought is severe, the people will no longer have to worry about being hungry."

Meng Hong laughed: "Mr. Lang really has the heart of a scholar who cares about the country and the people."

Xiao Yu said: "Isn't it the ideal of every scholar to make the old have a good end, the strong have a good use, the young have good strengths, and the widows, lonely, disabled and sick can all be cared for?"

"Compared to Mr. Lang, Hong is deeply ashamed." Meng Hong cupped his hands, "Mr. Xiao's implication is that he wants to go out to sea by boat and go to those places to search for these rare treasures?"

Xiao Yu smiled: "When I saw this ship, I suddenly came up with this idea. But I don't know sailing skills, so I can only imagine it."

Meng Hong said: "Your Majesty said that, I think of a person. There is a strange man Dou Qiye in Shenglong Bay. When he was young, he encountered a hurricane while fishing, and his boat was blown to an unknown overseas island. The island is rich in products and fruits, and there are also some natives who are mainly hunters and gatherers. I don't know where he was blown. He drifted on the sea for several months relying on rainwater, fishing and wild fruits, and arrived at a land. However, it was not Yazhou. After resting, he continued to set off. After wandering for several years, he finally met a merchant ship from Anguo at sea, followed the merchant ship for two years, and finally returned to his hometown.”

Xiao Yu was very surprised: "There is such a strange person? Is he still built here?" This is even more exciting than "Robinson Crusoe". I wonder where Dou Qiye went?I really want to talk to him.

"He is still alive. Dou Qiye wandered at sea for seven years before returning home. His mother missed her son and cried blindly, so Dou Qiye took care of his mother at home. He also told people many times about his I was lucky enough to meet an old man who was very cheerful and talkative, and he even told me that he wanted to go to sea." Meng Hong said.

"Then how old is Dou Qiye now?"

"It's almost the year of the destiny, and the body looks quite strong. I saw it the year before last, and I haven't seen it for some days." Meng Hong said.

Xiao Yu's eyes lit up: "When this matter settles down, I'll go to Shenglong Bay to visit this Dou Qiye." Sailing requires experienced crew, and Dou Qiye is old, but if he is in good health, he can invite him Be the captain.

The waiting time passed extremely long and tormented. With Meng Hong coming to talk with him, the time passed much faster.The thick night finally passed, the sky gradually brightened, and the sea fog also rose, hiding everything around.

Xiao Yu looked at the thick sea fog and wondered when it would dissipate.It's almost dawn, and I don't know what's going on with Rinzhi.

Ji Hai came down from the deck: "Lang Jun, come and listen."

Xiao Yu hurried onto the deck, surrounded by milky white mist, even the boats moored nearby could not be seen. At this moment, they seemed to be on an isolated island, isolated from the world, which made Xiao Yu a little uneasy: "What are you listening to?" Ears pricked up, except for the sound of the waves hitting the bottom of the boat, no other sounds can be heard around.

Ji Hai said: "I just heard someone calling for a boat to come over, and the sound of a whistle."

Xiao Yu hurriedly asked: "Is it the pirates who have returned?"

"It seems so. Sir, what should we do? Didn't Master catch the pirate?" Ji Hai asked nervously, "What about my elder brother?"

Xiao Yu looked in the direction of the coast, and licked his dry lips: "Don't worry, wait a minute, your master and I's plan is to drive the pirates to the beach to round them up. They came to the beach to show that they are planning In the middle, we still have to wait until dawn, and send someone to row a boat back to check the situation."

If everything goes according to plan, he hopes it won't be so bloody, after all, not all pirates have reached the point of unpardonable crime.

"I'll go." Ji Hai said.

"Don't worry, I have my own arrangements." Xiao Yu put his hand on his shoulder.

The sea was very cold in the morning, Xiao Yu was unwilling to go down the cabin, he waited on the deck until the sun broke through the thick fog, revealing his pale face, he guessed that this time had already arrived at [-] o'clock.

At this moment, Lin Haisheng came over and asked, "Mr. Xiao, can we go back now?"

Xiao Yu said: "Take a brother who is good at water and row a boat back to see the situation. Don't be too eager to land on the shore. You can only go up after you are sure that you are completely safe. Come back and let us know when you have news."

Lin Haisheng got off the boat with a partner and rowed the boat to the shore.Ji Hai wanted to go, but Xiao Yu didn't let him, because he was only a child after all.

Xiao Yu watched their boat disappear into the mist, the sun rose higher and higher, and the thick fog on the sea gradually dissipated.The villagers in the cabin couldn't stay any longer, and went to the deck one after another.

Li Zheng asked: "Xiao Langjun, what do you think the situation is, will it go well?"

If it doesn't go well, are they all going to stay on the boat? Although there are some pirates' food reserves on the boat, how long can they last?

Xiao Yu said: "Wait a little longer, there should be a result soon."

At this time, the dense fog on the sea has completely dissipated, leaving only the blue sky and blue sea, and the sparkling waves on the sea, and the faint outline of the coast appears in the distance. Clear the shore scene.

The sun was rising higher and higher, and people kept coming to ask when they would go back. Just when Xiao Yu's panic was getting bigger and bigger, a small boat finally appeared on the sea.One person rowed the boat and the other stood on the bow.Finally, Xiao Yu saw the person at the bow clearly, with a joyful smile on his face.

Ji Hai shouted: "Your Majesty, it's Master!"

Xiao Yu laughed, raised his arms and waved towards Pei Linzhi, then turned to the people on board and said, "Okay, we can go back."

Everyone cheered, and the men all ran to the cabin to row.

The small boat soon arrived near the big boat, and Pei Linzhi looked up at the big boat: "Mr. Lang, I'll take you home."

Xiao Yu laughed: "It's all done?"

"Well, it's done!"

Ji Hai hurriedly asked: "Master, where is my elder brother?"

Pei Linzhi said: "Your eldest brother was injured a little bit, resting at home, it's nothing serious, it's just a minor injury."

When Ji Hai heard that his elder brother was injured, he was unavoidably worried, but when he heard that it was not in the way, he let go of the big rock in his heart, and immediately became a little excited. Does this mean that the elder brother will not leave in the future, and he will stay?

Pei Linzhi grabbed the ladder that Xiao Yu put down, and reached the side of the boat in two steps. He could go up by himself, but seeing Xiao Yu's hand stretched out in front of him, he stretched out his hand to grab it.Xiao Yu pulled him up, the two looked at each other and smiled, Xiao Yu's heart was finally at ease: "Are you not injured?" While asking, he hurriedly checked Pei Linzhi's body. He had already changed his clothes, which must have been dirty before.

Pei Linzhi shook his head and said with a smile, "Lang Jun, I'm fine."

"That's good. Where's the pirate?" Xiao Yu asked.

Pei Linzhi said, "They were all arrested."

The villagers all asked him what was going on, but Pei Linzhi explained in a few words: "Last night, the pirates attacked the city of Zhouzhou. I cooperated with the governor of Yazhou and defeated the pirates. All the pirates were arrested. There will be no more pirates to rob in the future."

There was a burst of cheers from the crowd: "Great!"

Xiao Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and finally he could give everyone an explanation.Not only was the danger of the siege of Yazhou relieved, but also the worries of the future were eliminated. It was a happy event that killed several birds with one stone.More importantly, Pei Linzhi has made such a great contribution, so Xue Zhao can ask for this big ship. There is no navy in Yazhou, so it is useless to ask for this ship. If you ask for it yourself, you can realize your dream of sailing.Sea of ​​stars, here I come!
