Chapter 155: Treading the Waves(1/2)
After all, Shi Dahai was still a person with some foundation. He came back to his senses and raised his glass to greet each other: "Today, the young master's words are better than the daughter!"
But I suddenly felt a little more grateful to Duan Yu.
The other party's words not only match his ambitions, but also have the legend of "a noble man is in love with him and a gift from him". He has the fame that he needs most at this time!
Among the same subordinate promotion, unknown and budding people, any boss knows how to choose.
As for the side effects of this fame, such as jealousy, slander, etc., his Shi family's tiger skin can still be borrowed for use.
"good!"
Seeing Shi Dahai finally looked away, Duan Yu couldn't help but admire him a little more.
If this person dares to ask for a scroll shamelessly, his heart will be really bad and there is no cure. Not only will he not be able to help him, but he should kill him as soon as possible!
Immediately laughed, drank a bowl, and left directly under Shi Dahai's surprised gaze.
"Start and go back to Anyungang!"
Amano Fist Guard didn't know why the Lord was traveling thousands of miles away, just to buy a painting and meet someone, but he was silent and meticulously completed the task.
Since that shipwreck, this young man has grown a lot.
...
There is no need to hurry when you go back, Duan Yu just rides in a carriage.
Although the road is a bit bumpy, I feel very good and slowly unfold the scroll.
The painting is four feet long and one and a half feet wide. The scroll is made of yellow wood, exuding a fragrance, and the wooden surface is also covered with a smooth color. It is obviously often rubbed by human hands, which is an antique.
After opening it, you can see the vast smoke and waves on it, depicting a scene of the bright moon rising from the east, the sea ripples, and the mermaid sitting on the stone and crying.
Although there are no inscriptions and seals, and it is not a work of famous artists, it is also unique and lifelike.
As soon as Duan Yu saw this painting, he felt his eyes lit up. After using other techniques to secretly investigate, he knew that he had found the real owner.
He reached out and stroked the picture, and the light flowed between his fingers and penetrated into the painting.
After several times, I twisted the corner of the scroll and gently lifted it.
A layer of drawing paper was lifted up, and there was a unique pattern below, and there was also a chart.
The symbols on it are complicated, and Duan Yu has learned that it is some ocean currents, monsoon signs, as well as the distribution of reefs, and the migration laws of beast groups.
If you have a brilliant sailor, you can finally reach the end of the island by following this newly emerging route.
"Sure enough...Pengyu Island Nautical Chart!"
Duan Yu's mouth slightly raised, and she stared at the lines of text on the chart.
This text is different from the mainland and the East China Sea. It is somewhat similar to pictograms and is very complex. The simplest character has thirty-seven strokes.
You should know that ordinary words are for people to learn and use, and continuous simplification is the trend. Such complex words are simply deliberately setting obstacles and affecting people's learning and reading.
Just like the ancient priests deliberately created complex sacrificial fonts in order to control the divine power!
"Or...is it a foreigner's text? a mermaid's text?"
Duan Yu couldn't understand this thing, after all, Donghai's words are already a small language, and the mermaid's words are probably not recorded in the three sects of Donghai.
Not to mention anything else, the potential of a group that can invent words cannot be underestimated.
"Maybe... the power of the mermaids will exceed my expectations!"
Duan Yu stroked the chart, and a delicate and gentle touch came from his fingers, which made him know that the painting also contained a slight shark silk, which was also the same spiritual material. It is rumored that it was as light as a feather, and it could ward off water insects.
"It seems... this chart is not as simple as a map, maybe it has other functions?"
He immediately had some speculation. Otherwise, even if the mermaids did not reject trade with the human race, it would be hard to say what would happen if you drove a ship to your hometown where it had never been discovered.
...
Anyungang.
"Young Master Qi reported to you that your subordinates have established a storehouse and bought 3,000 stones of grain and can be transported to the ship at any time..."
Chen Pingzhi followed Duan Yu and reported step by step.
"Very good, in addition... we must focus on finding an excellent shipbuilder!"
Duan Yu said casually, and without surprise, he saw a trace of bitterness on Chen Pingzhi's face.
After all, although these shipbuilders are first-class craftsmen and have low status, they are all very generous in their living conditions. If they were not in the mind, they would not have gone to a small island to work hard for a village owner.
"I know this is not easy, but I can make friends first and make plans later..." Although Dayi and even Ming Tun can be bought and sold in Anyungang, Duan Yu does not want to go on the road of seeking everything from outside.
If such a powerful weapon of military and nationality cannot be created by oneself, wouldn’t it be too much for the sake of a rebellion?
"In Anyungang, there are three masters, Zhou Mo, Liu Peng, and Fu Mu Zhengcheng, who are famous for shipbuilding. Each of them has many disciples. The younger ones think it will be easier to start with their disciples..."
Chen Pingzhi said: "In addition... the boat that the young master told me to buy has been prepared! Please see..."
He pointed to a ship anchored in the harbor.
The ship's length is ten feet, with three masts, the hull is painted black, and there is also a huge fish crossbow at the bow.
"This 'Talang' was originally a professional fishing boat. The bow has a crossbow machine, a special crossbow arrow, and the tail is connected by iron chains to catch giant whales!"
“Not bad…”
Duan Yu went up and looked at it, and was very satisfied. Especially the crossbow arrow was larger than the bed crossbow used on land and fixed on the bow of the ship. Although he could only fire one shot, the power of the crossbow arrow was definitely not smaller than that of the shell.
This crossbow arrow is as thick as a baby's arms, with barbs on both sides, and it is impossible to pull out once it is pierced into the flesh. In addition, the iron chain at the tail can definitely bite the giant whale tightly.
"Is it because of this ship for whaling?"
Seeing this scene, Chen Pingzhi murmured in confusion.
Amano Fist Guard and Musashi Izumi, who knew something about it, remained silent.
What the lord wants to capture is more than just a whale?
Even if you think about this kind of ambition, you will be so excited that your whole body will tremble.
"Pingzhi, go and prepare clean water and dry food, and use the boat we were on when we came to carry the food back. As for this boat, I want to drive it to catch a big fish!"
Duan Yu walked down the deck and couldn't help but feel full of enthusiasm.
Break through the unknown sea, embark on a legendary adventure, build great merits, and reputation even if it is sung by the world hundreds of years later, isn’t it a small dream that almost every man has ever had in his heart?
"oh……"
At this time, a group of gray-black little ghosts ran over barefoot on the dock, looking at the fishing boat, with a look of exclamation on their faces: "Many boats are so beautiful..."
"I decided!"
A little devil, who was about 11 or 2 years old in maroon, jumped onto the grocery pile and pointed at the Wave: "I will drive such a big and majestic ship in the future and become One Piece!"
In this era, the people on the seaside generally regard going out to sea as a pirate as an ordinary job, just like going out to work during the slack season, without any concern.
But Duan Yu, who was passing by, couldn't help laughing: "Little devil... do you know if the pirate is going to be caught and hung by the navy?"
"Pirates will be hanged, but One Piece won't!"
The young man held his chin stubbornly: "Everything the king said is the law! If I am the king, the status of pirates and navy will be reversed!"
"What a shameless boy..."
Duan Yu's smile gradually faded: "What's your name?"
"Listen, my name is Yu Fei, and the future will inevitably spread this name all over the world!" the child said loudly.
"Want to be One Piece? You change your surname first, change your surname 'Lu'!" Duan Yu left speechlessly, but he felt thoughtful in his heart.
Yu Fei?
This name is a bit familiar, and the one who can be introduced into his previous life must be a hero.
This kid might be able to achieve some success after the three East China Sea players.
‘What does being One Piece have to do with changing the surname ‘Lu’?’
Only Xiao Yufei, who was in the same place, was left with a confused look on his face.
Immediately, when I saw the adults rushing over behind me, I was so scared that I urinated and ran away with a group of friends...
...
A few days later, the port.
"Set off!"
With Duan Yu's order, the straits slowly drove away from the port and headed towards the depths of the unknown sea.
The scorching sun hangs high.
Duan Yu sat cross-legged on the deck, closing her eyes to rest.
The warm and gentle sunshine falls, and there is a warm smell.
'But people in the world don't know that the sun is really hot. It is a threshold for life and death for practitioners to restrain all spirits and ghosts!'
Feeling the bronze seal in his body slowly transforming into pure copper purple, Duan Yumo said.
