Chapter 534: Seventh in Tianbang

Chapter 534 Tianbang seventh

The sea breeze was blowing, Zhao Changhe lay leisurely on the deck looking at the blue sky and white clouds, took out the wine gourd and drank it in small sips.

Obviously counted as a war, the situation ahead is unpredictable, but in this kind of journey, you can find a rare leisure, perhaps this is the biggest difference from the past.

It's a pity that he and Chi Chi couldn't go together after all.

She went directly to the port of Langya to go to the sea. Zhao Changhe couldn't go to the port, and she had to go south to Ningbo.

The meaning of everyone’s going to sea is different. Although the destination may be the same, Zhao Changhe wants to observe the secrets and movements of the Haizu from the sidelines. If you stay with Chi Chi, it will be exposed to the eyes of the Hai Clan, which may not be easy to do. It will also reveal the fact that the Four Elephant Sect and Zhao Changhe wear a pair of pants, which is not worthwhile.

It’s better to have one light and one dark, and it’s much more maneuverable. It’s just a pity that I can’t live a shameless life at sea with Chichi.

Zhao Changhe doesn't know, Xia Chichi has been copying books even during the trip to sea, and he hasn't finished copying yet...Maybe His Holiness agrees with Xia Longyuan's saying that "the lack of tranquility" should be tempered deliberately, let her calm down a bit...

The Tang family's boat also has an aboveboard reason to go to sea.

In this proposal to abolish the water and transform the sea, Tang Wanzhuang objected because the current timing was not suitable, but most of the Tang family supported it. Even Tang Buqi was not a follower of his aunt in this matter. Because it's good for the family. No matter what is not the timing, it is not good for the overall situation, who the f*ck is like my aunt who is full of loyalty to the emperor and serving the country and the world, we are a family.

Then Tang Buqi was beaten by his aunt and went back to Gusu.

Maritime transportation has not been opened for the time being due to the chaos of the Cao Gang. The Tang family has been trying to do foreign sea trade for a long time, but the scale is small and the nature of the experiment is strong. Among them, the small country called Penglai on Haitian Island, the Tang family also had a small amount of contacts.

This time Tang Buqi returned to Gusu, and immediately started planning a new round of going to sea against Penglai. I thought my aunt would be angry, but the letter from my aunt said: "Chang He is going to sea, please make arrangements."

Tang Buqi roared by with his muddy belly, he didn't know what to say.

We want to open the sea, but you object. Your family, Zhao Changhe, is going to go to sea, and you suddenly don't object, but we are very useful at this time, right? It allows you to present treasures in front of your lover, "it's already arranged", right?

So that when Zhao Changhe came to ask for a boat, Tang Buqi's face was stinky, and he didn't bother to talk to Zhao Changhe from the beginning to the end.

Zhao Changhe lay on the deck recalling Tang Buqi's stinky and arrogant expression, and he still wants to laugh.

"Master Zhao, the sun is about to set, and the wind is strong at night, so it's better to enter the cabin." The captain of the Tang family shouted out of the cabin.

The captain's name is Tang En, which is a name that can often be used as the protagonist in Chinese fantasy stories. It seems to be quite suitable for the background of the great voyage. He is the son of the Tang family. He has been engaged in sea life for more than 20 years and has extremely rich experience. He has also been to the so-called Haitian Island. This time, it happened to be for a legitimate reason for maritime trade, which was similar to the meaning of Li Si'an before, so as to cover up Zhao Changhe's existence.

Zhao Changhe said with a smile: "Since the boat is not afraid of wind and waves, I am not afraid either. I really did not expect that the Tang family's boat is so strong."

This is a real big ship. Zhao Changhe is not an expert on it, and he doesn't know the tonnage or anything, but it is really big and stable, which makes people feel at ease. There is still a fleet of smaller ones behind, and I don’t know how much profit a single voyage can make. No wonder Tang Buqi doesn’t listen to his aunt...

Tang En said: "It's also a coincidence. The Gusu ship was not completed last year. It just had a sea trial in the first half of the year, and it will be officially used."

Zhao Changhe asked: "How to determine the direction? Sinan?"

"This is more complicated... As for the tools, we mainly use the sky ruler and the compass needle to measure the altitude angle of the stars, etc. We also need to observe astronomy, wind direction, and tides... I don't dare to go to sea blindly without ten years of ship experience. Yes, sail along the coast at most."

Zhao Changhe nodded, sighed and said, "Every row is like a mountain."

In fact, what I lament is not the interlacing of martial arts and navigation, but that I was a liberal arts student back then. It seems that I can’t pretend to be forced by the opening of this great age of navigation. The indigenous sailing experience and scientific knowledge can lift me up.

The Tang family is not yet top-notch in this respect, and the Wang family may be even stronger.

Speaking of which, my thinking is not very modern anymore, and I was taught materialist dialectics by a blind man before... Including the matter of going to sea, my mind is full of medicinal materials, martial arts secrets, and Tang En and the others are rushing to all kinds of spices and gum gold Silver properties, as well as brand new crop seeds, brain circuits are completely different.

Zhao Changhe felt a bit humiliated, because he used to look at the age...

He tried hard to make up for his martial arts thinking: "Are there any pirates?""There were not many in the early years, and I saw them occasionally. In recent years, there have been more and more, but they don't appear near the sea, and they mostly appear around the islands in the far sea. " Tang En pointed to the rear: "We are a fleet of thousands of people, with countless strong bows and crossbows, don't be afraid."

Zhao Changhe is keenly aware that there is a problem here: "Why have there been more and more in recent years? Has the frequency of your sea trade increased? Or are there more fishermen going out to sea?"

"We don't, others don't know about it." Tang En said: "Maritime trade is highly profitable, but not everyone can do it. A ship that can go out to the sea is a natural barrier. Don't say that you will lose your life if you turn over once. If the frequency of sea trade is increased, it can only be the Wang family, maybe they have accumulated wealth in the past few years, and then they brazenly rebelled..."

It is true that the Wang family's rebellion should also have economic related factors, and there is indeed less thinking about this aspect in the past.

Zhao Changhe pondered: "In other words, the pirates are also mainly adding to the Wang family's obstacles? Will there be any organization that deliberately targets it?"

"We really don't know about this." Tang En said: "Miss has analyzed it. If there is an organization, it can only be that person..."

A name came to Zhao Changhe's mind.

Seventh in the Tianbang, Dragon King Hai Pinglan.

Regardless of his name or nickname, he is a proper person who seeks life at sea, but in fact he became famous in Middle-earth and has nothing to do with the sea.

This person was once the third in the Tianbang and the king of the southern separatist forces. The name Dragon King came from the Yangtze River water battle, not the Dragon King of the Sea. Later, he was defeated by Xia Longyuan, who was seventh in the celestial list at that time. Not only did he switch places and fell to seventh, but he also destroyed the country. He fled alone and disappeared...

After Xia Longyuan moved into third place, he challenged Timur who was second at the time and Great Shaman Bo who was number one, beating them into second and third place, reaching the top. As for the follow-up practice becoming more and more perverted, and starting to become a prairie Hushen, that is a later thing.

In the process of unifying the world, Xia Longyuan is the absolute protagonist of the novel.

Hai Pinglan became the background board under Xia Longyuan's illustrious military exploits, and has since disappeared. He has not heard from him for more than 30 years. It seems that there is no such person. If it weren't for the fact that he was still not removed from the book of troubled times, I'm afraid the world would think he was dead...

It would make sense if the man had gone out to sea and disappeared. It is quite normal for him to become the leader of a huge pirate organization with his strength, but the problem is that he should cooperate with the Wang family to fight against Xia, so why would he drag the Wang family back instead?

This guess may not be true.

In fact, there was another kind of suspicion in the overseas information report of the Zhenma Division, saying that even the Penglai Kingdom might have been established by Hai Pinglan.

One guess is the king, another guess is the pirate, the gap is a bit big.

Xia Chichi also searched for news about this person the last time he went to sea, but found nothing. The king of Penglai said his surname was Yuan, and it seemed that he had nothing to do with Hai Pinglan. Of course, it wouldn't be surprising if Hai Pinglan deliberately concealed his identity and didn't want Xia Longyuan to know.

Zhao Changhe was rather curious. These overseas beings, whether they are pirates, various small countries in the sea, or sea clan murlocs, etc., are not listed in the book of troubled times... Miaojiang has a land list, and overseas has not even seen a Qianlong.

I feel that it should not be true that the practice is very low. It is likely that the book of chaos was not included for some reason.

I don’t know how about overseas strong, martial arts?

While thinking, the sun set below the sea level. Half a round of the setting sun is still showing its head at the junction of the sea and the sky, reflecting the brilliant brilliance of the distant sea.

Several sails showed sharp corners from a distance, and a fleet came through the waves.

Dwain's expression changed drastically: "Why are there pirates here?"
