V1.Chapter 226

The big ship sets sail and rides the wind and waves.

It's just that for many people living inland, riding the wind and waves is definitely not an interesting experience. Even for many people, this is simply suffering.

Xu Xian's face was full of dishes. Looking at the food in front of him, he felt that he couldn't eat any more. Huang Rongrong comforted him for a long time, and then told Xu Xian to take a small bite.

"Is it going to be like this...for a month?"

No matter how big the big boat is at this time, once it goes out to sea, it is just like a small sampan. It is fine when the weather is clear, but if the wind and waves are a little bit stronger, the boat will be bobbing on the sea surface, which is not enjoyable...

Of course, the last sentence is only for some people with special hobbies. To most people they will not be interesting at all.

"Where's brother?"

Barely filling his stomach, Xu Xian felt his stomach churning after taking just a few mouthfuls, and he would spit out the dangling things for a short time. After going to sea for three or four days, he barely ate something almost every day, and then vomited profusely, and in the end he had nothing to vomit and would retch non-stop.

Huang Rongrong took care of Xu Xian, who was completely listless, and replied: "The master and Senior Sister Ning are watching the sea from the bow! The master said that it would be like asking Senior Sister Ning to see the real sea!"

"It's... amazing..." After speaking, he tilted his head and fell asleep directly. He has been tossing so hard for the past few days that he can't even sleep, and at this moment he is on the verge of collapse. Rather than falling asleep, it is better to say that his body instinctively sensed something was wrong, and it was appropriate to pass out directly.

Huang Rongrong tidied up, and when she got out of the cabin, she saw Ye Wen and Ning Ruxue standing at the bow, and Hua Yi standing behind them—a little farther away, that annoying ghost named Xuanyuan Wudi appeared from time to time. It is more appropriate to look at Ye Wen's side, or to say that he is looking at Huayi.

"Impossible, that guy must be bluffing me! How could such a beautiful woman be just a maid? He is not me! How can he bear such neglect of such a beautiful woman?"

However, in the past few days, he has been peeping in every possible way. Huayi's behavior, walking, standing, and even eating are no different from that of a maid.

To put it simply, wherever Ye Wen went, Hua Yi could only follow behind. She served Ye Wen while eating, she massaged Ye Wen when he was lying down, and she could only stand still when Ye Wen was sitting.

"It doesn't make sense! How could such a beautiful woman abuse herself like this?"

He couldn't figure it out, but Ye Wen also had a headache. This laoshizi Xuanyuan Wudi is really annoying, and this guy is not as bad-tempered as Long Batian, he has been unwilling to take the initiative to cause trouble, even if he wants to lose his temper and take the opportunity to dismiss this kid, he can't do it.

"Could it be that he was afraid of me when he saw that I took down that Dragon Batian with one move?"

After thinking about it, it is estimated that this is the closest possibility to reality, otherwise he really can't figure out why this kind of person would bear it until now and have not made any special actions.

But since Xuanyuan Wudi didn't dare to provoke him, he didn't bother to deal with this guy. After all, this person is also a man of good fortune. If he really fights against him and ends up meeting a villain who is like an immortal Xiaoqiang, wouldn't that be a tragedy?

"Hope I'm not a stepping stone for some guy like the protagonist!"

The big ship cut through the waves, lined up and sailed eastward non-stop. In the past few days, Ye Wen didn't know how far he had traveled. He only knew that if someone accidentally fell into the sea, he would probably die of exhaustion and would not be able to swim back to the shore. Moreover, the color of the sea water is getting darker and the waves are getting higher and higher.

Standing on the bow of the boat, Ye Wen could feel that the place under his feet fluctuated up and down. If the people on the bow were not all martial arts masters, they would have been thrown out long ago.

Ning Ruxue stood with him for a while, but also felt dizzy: "Senior brother, is this how big ships are at sea?"

Ye Wen nodded: "Not bad!" At the same time, he thought to himself: "In my previous life, the pirate ship, the rapids, the roller coaster and so on are not for nothing, at least the ability to resist dizziness is slightly better!"

Coupled with the fact that his cultivation base is advanced now, this little shaking will not make him feel uncomfortable.

But looking back, even Hua Yi frowned slightly, and that pampered guy Xu Xian had fallen down. My group of disciples have been lying on their stomachs in their room these days, and the situation is not good.

Just at this time Nangong heard that Haixing came out, and after the two looked at each other, they both sighed in unison, only feeling that the danger of this trip was far more dangerous than originally expected.

"My Nangong family has lived in the south for a long time, and I often take this boat, but many children feel unwell when they are on the sea!" Can deduce one or two. Thinking about the situation on several other ships, it is probably the same.

Ye Wen also sighed: "Then what can we do? We can't turn around and return, right?"

Nangong Tinghai also smiled wryly.

It is absolutely impossible to turn around and return to the voyage. The name of this gangster is just a name, and the slogan to encircle and suppress the demon sect has been shouted out. At this time, he turned back without even seeing his hometown. Big laughing stock?

"The only way to do it now is to take one step and watch one step!"

When the two of them said this, Xuanyuan Wudi, who had been staying by the side, suddenly came up to him with an arrogant expression: "What are you afraid of? What kind of demon sect, it's just a bunch of chickens and dogs, and I treat you like a hero!" When you arrive, why don’t you obediently put down your weapon and kowtow for mercy?” After speaking, he hummed and sneered twice: “If someone is obsessed with obsession, I will take care of it myself!”

Upon hearing this buddy's remarks, Nangong Tinghai and Ye Wen looked at each other, and then sighed together. At this time, the two of them didn't bother to avoid this guy, anyway, it doesn't matter if there is more or less.

Xuanyuan Wudi talked here for a while, but saw that the two of them did not buy him at all, even though he shook the tiger's body to pieces, they still bowed without accepting their heads.

On the contrary, all the beautiful wives and concubines who followed him flattered him in unison, which somehow made him not so embarrassed.

Similar situations are also happening on several other large ships.

Chan Master Huixin of the Zen School and Master Tianyi of the Tiandao School are all worried about the current situation. They didn't expect the power of the sea to be so tyrannical that the elite of today's righteous heroes will be defeated without a fight.

As far as the current situation is concerned, not to mention fighting with the Demon Cult, at least more than half of the people can't even stand firmly after landing on the shore.

After all, Master Tianyi and Zen Master Huixin are not generals in the army, nor are they people who study water warfare. Naturally, they didn't think of these things, and they also had a glimpse of the impact of water travel on people. At this time, the two of them also recruited their fellow heroes on the same boat to discuss how to deal with this matter.

However, after discussions and discussions, there was no conclusion, so the ship had to drop anchor, and a group of sect masters gathered on a large ship to discuss a plan before moving on.

In the end, it was Dongfang Yi, who was a little familiar with the sea, who came up with an idea, suggesting to find a small island on the chart first, and temporarily settle down and repair it before continuing on the road. Otherwise, if it goes on like this, it will kill people even if it is bumped like this.

"Now it seems that this is the only way to go!"

Dongfang Yi's proposal was adopted, and then everyone adjusted their direction. Instead of going straight to the Demon Sect, they adjusted their direction according to the location of the island marked on the sea chart.

When Ye Wen heard this plan, he just muttered: "It should have been done earlier!" But Ning Ruxue heard it, and asked in a low voice: "Since senior brother has already thought about it, why didn't you say it earlier?"

Ye Wen, who choked on a single sentence, didn't know how to respond, but was ridiculed by his junior sister instead: "It turns out that senior brother is also postponing!"

After re-adjusting the course, it took another three days to see the nearest island. As soon as everyone landed on the shore, they immediately fell to the ground on the beach. No one wanted to move for a moment. I feel how happy it is to be able to stay on the unshakable ground.

Ye Wen happened to be standing next to Master Tianyi at this moment, and saw that Master Tianyi frowned, watching the messy group of people lying on the beach with increasingly ugly faces, but after a while, he could only sigh dejectedly One sound: "Miscalculation, big miscalculation! The old Taoist and the old monk didn't think carefully!"

Seeing Tianyi's self-blame, Ye Wen could only comfort him casually: "Don't blame yourself like this, after all, people like me who have lived on land for a long time, how do we know the dangers and hardships of sailing! Fortunately, we discovered it before it was too late. , as long as you find a suitable resting place, you will not return without success!"

After speaking, he thought about the details on the sea chart to see if there was any suitable island that was very close to the main altar of the Devil's Cult as the final resting place.

Right now, his skills are getting more and more advanced, his spiritual platform is clear, and his memory is not known to be much better than before. Although he has only seen the sea chart a few times, he has also remembered it in his mind. After thinking for a while, he remembered that there were many islands around the location of the Demon Cult, and it would not be impossible to just choose one as the final resting place. Then make some adjustments, and it only takes half a day to rush to the location of the Demon Cult. It only takes half a day, but it shouldn't make everyone lose their combat power.

After telling his own words to Master Tianyi, the old Taoist also agreed with him very much, and finally said: "I don't think Master Ye has a bit of talent for marching formations, the old Taoist really didn't expect it!"

Master Ye waved his hand: "What kind of marching formation is just some wild imagination! I don't know how far it is from the real commander in the army!"

Master Tianyi only thought that Ye Wen was being modest, but he didn't know that he really didn't think he had that talent. Even though I have played a lot of strategy games and read a lot of military novels in the past—but none of them are real, and what I know is not even superficial for a real expert.

It's just that for today's heroes of the righteous way, this superficial is enough. After all, these people are all reckless people in the world. Even if they are all martial arts elites, they are only specialized in martial arts. Most of the things about marching and fighting are just known but don’t know why. Several people got together to discuss a lot and they still couldn’t come to a conclusion. In the end, Ye Wen had to explain his thoughts in detail, and finally added something in detail. Fan.

"Choose an island as a base, we can't just rush up like this, otherwise it's like sending a sheep to a tiger's mouth! In addition to resting and recovering our combat power, we also need to send some experts to drive a small boat close to the Devil's Cult island to investigate. What a lie! Find out the protective measures of the Demon Cult."

Hearing what Ye Wen said, some people didn't take it seriously, thinking that the head of Shushan was too careful. What else are you looking for? It is serious to rush up and start fighting.

Ye Wen didn't bother to respond to this kind of people who obviously lacked a thread in their heads, but explained to himself: "Since the Devil's Cult takes this as its hometown, it must be heavily guarded! Moreover, the Devil's Cult takes the current imperial court as its biggest imaginary enemy, so they It is impossible not to guard against the sudden attack of the imperial court's navy... If the Demon Cult deals with our big ships in the same way as defending against naval warships..."

Ordinary people don't think so, and they don't understand the difference between naval warships and the ships they are on, so only Dongfang Yi was trembling all over, and secretly said: "Miscalculation, I almost hit an egg and hit a rock!"

Others don't know, doesn't he know? These big ships are just a few large commercial ships, usually used to transport goods. Although they can go out to the far sea, in fact, these ships are more likely to sail in the near sea.

In addition, the sea area of ​​the Shang Dynasty was extremely stable, and pirates were extremely rare. Although this big ship was big enough to withstand some wind and waves, it was definitely not comparable to the warships used by the officials for conquests. Nature wants to make it extremely strong. And if the Demon Cult deals with a few merchant ships in the same way as it deals with warships.

"The Demon Cult...doesn't have any sharp weapons on the battlefield?"

Although this world has not entered the industrial age, all the things we rely on to fight will be similar in the end. Although artillery has not been invented, there are things like trebuchets and bed crossbows. If the Demon Sect had this thing, wouldn't it be a living target for me and others to rush forward foolishly?

"It's not certain, but there is a greater possibility!"

As soon as Ye Wen said this, the complexions of the well-informed old people became extremely ugly. At first they decided to encircle and suppress the Demon Cult in high spirits, but now they were forced to stop to rest halfway, but at this time Only then did I realize how inadequate my preparations were.

Seeing a group of people come back to their senses at this moment and realize how troublesome it is, Ye Wen can only sigh: "The rivers and lakes are reckless, the rivers and lakes are reckless...the word is really correct!"

If Ye Wen hadn't lived in the world of information explosion for more than 20 years, he might not be as knowledgeable as those old men. However, these old men are either fighting for supremacy in the arena, or tossing their own three-acre land , Thinking about things will always have limitations, and it is not uncommon for this to happen.

As for the imperial court wanting to use the hands of the heroes of the righteous way to eradicate the Demon Sect... Ye Wen now even suspects that the imperial court is using the hands of the Demon Sect to eradicate these so-called righteous martial arts.

In other words, the court has other arrangements? If you see that the heroes of the righteous way are invincible, send troops to encircle and suppress?

Ye Wen can only guess about these things, and can't judge whether this is the case at all. After talking with several leaders, everyone finally decided to do what Ye Wen said first, determine a new route, and arrive at it while walking. Near where the Demon Cult is located, and find a small island that is not far away but not too close to live. Then... play it by ear.

Ye Wen only said these four words at the time. In fact, he was thinking that if the main altar of the Demon Cult was set up like a fortress, then he could only choose to retreat!

Of course, if the heroes insisted on attacking, he would have come up with some ideas, but it's better to hide this kind of thing for a while, so that he can show his own extraordinaryness by saying it when everyone is out of control. If it was taken out from the beginning, it would seem nothing special, and this group of people probably wouldn't know how to appreciate it.

Returning to the place where the people of the Shushan faction stayed, Ye Wen looked around, and saw that the one resting on the left was the Yudong faction, and on the other side were the people from the Nangong family. They were relatively close and naturally gathered together. Firewood, then build a fire to cook.

When Ye Wen came back, Hua Yi was staring in a daze at the boiling water in the pot, and then he was holding a mushroom in one hand—it seemed that he had just picked it, and he was hesitating while holding something unknown in the other hand.

"What are you doing?"

Hua Yi was startled by Ye Wen's sound, and in a panic, threw the contents of his hands into the pot, then raised his head, and blinked innocently: "It's cooking soup!"

"Cooking soup..." Ye Wen's head was black. Just now he clearly saw Hua Yi staring at a pot of boiling water in a daze. If she hadn't yelled herself, she would probably still be squatting there stupidly, not knowing what to do. Woolen cloth.

Walked over and looked down into the pot: "What is this?"

"Mushrooms!" Hua Yi poked at them twice with a spoon, pointed to one that was bright red, and even slightly white, and said, "It looks good! And it's very fragrant, it must be delicious!"

There were more black lines on Ye Wen's face, and at the same time there were faint sweat stains running down. He took the spoon and turned it over twice: "Where do these mushrooms come from?"

"My servant went to pick them. There are many in the woods over there! And there are all kinds of colors. It took me a long time to choose the most beautiful one..."

"..." Ye Wen first made a sign of the cross on his chest, then folded his hands tightly together and finally announced his Dao number in a low voice: "Hua Yi, after you get back, the master will spare some time to help you with some common sense lessons!"

"what?"

Ye Wen looked at Hua Yi's innocent appearance, and then remembered that this woman lived a more chic life than a princess before she knew him, so it's not surprising that she would take such a move.

Just as he was about to tell Hua Yi that the brighter and more beautiful the mushroom, the more poisonous it was, before he could open his mouth, Xuanyuan Wudi came out of nowhere, and immediately started to get close to Hua Yi: "Is the girl making soup? How can someone as celestial as a girl do such rough work?" When she lowered her head, she felt a puff of hot air rushing towards her face, which immediately blinded her eyes, but the fragrance was extremely alluring.

"It smells so good. The girl is not only like the fairy in the sky, but also the craftsmanship is extraordinary! I wonder if I can try it?" After speaking, without waiting for Huayi to reply, she took out a bowl and blew a few times. After a few sips, he drank it into his stomach.

Ye Wen watched coldly from the sidelines, held back what he was about to say, and waited until the man drank a bowl of soup before saying, "Hero Xuanyuan is really heroic, he can even drink poisonous mushroom soup so happily, Ye is very impressed !"

"Ah? Poisonous?" Upon hearing Ye Wen's words, Xuanyuan Wudi's face suddenly changed, and at the same time he asked: "What kind of poison is it?"

Ye Wen lowered his head and looked into the pot: "Look at the amount of mushrooms in this pot, and the variety of types, there is no doubt that what you have is a compound plant poison!"

"..."
