Landlord of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 205 Hey Hey Hey!
But Xu Qing left Huanghua Port and sailed along the coast, not daring to stray too far, nor to get too close.If you are too far away, you may lose it; if you are too close, you may run into a reef. From a distance, there is only a thin line on the shore.

After walking for five or six days, Xu Qing only remembered that he had traveled south for a long time, and it was only yesterday that he sailed east, so he knew that he had arrived in Shandong from Hebei.

In the morning, just had a meal on board and started sailing.Lift anchor, watch the wind, not too windy, and sizing.

The boatswain led everyone to row in the oars room, and the singing began again below the deck:

The sailor raised his head and sang loudly: Hey ah ah ah hey!

Everyone swallowed the oatmeal into the water, stepped back, grabbed the handle of the oatmeal, pushed it forward, and shouted: Hehe!

The boatswain said again: Hey ah hey hey!

Everyone repeated the previous rowing: Hey!Hey!
The boatswain changed his tone: the breeze is blowing cool?

Everyone is still: Hey!

Even pushing the boat down to Cangzhou!
Hey!

Are the rich sitting still?
Hey hey!
Who knows the sorrow and sorrow of the poor,
Yay hey!
Sailors are suffering through hardships, walking on the pier in the wind and rain...

Hi Yang Ho...

Following the roar of the chant, the boat started heading east.Xu Qing blushed slightly when he stood on the top, sitting in a rich man's house didn't mean him?But he couldn't stop the sailors from singing, for songs like this weren't just for entertainment.Manual workers will hold the air in their bodies, and let it out with a roar, so as not to hurt the internal organs.

After walking for less than half an hour, the breeze gradually picked up. Although it was not strong, it was windy anyway. Xu Qing asked everyone to rest, and raised the sails to let the wind replace the manpower.

Looking at the speed of the boat, which was almost the same as when everyone was paddling together, Xu Qing couldn't help feeling that man is hard to beat the sky.

The good times didn't last long, and the wind extinguished the fire again. Xu Qing couldn't bear to let everyone row the boat, so he dropped the anchor and put down the boat and said, "Catch some fish today!"

"Oh!" Everyone shouted, dragged the boat into the water, and handed over the net and the pole again. The sailor with fishing experience was regarded as a treasure, and the net was handed over to him.Inexperienced rookies like Xu Qing only use a small bamboo pole and a piece of cotton thread.As far as this equipment, Xu Qi has it.

The women did not let Xu Qing get off the boat, but let him fish on the deck.The deck is three to four meters high from the sea, and Xu Qing is just playing with the seawater with a bamboo pole if he can catch anything.

The boat was tens of feet away, cast the net, and waited for the harvest.The fishing net floated on the surface of the sea, and the boat moved away a few steps. The people on the boat sat down, took out their fishing rods and waited while fishing.

On Xu Qing's side, the five-meter cotton thread was thrown down, except for a few seaweeds tangled up, nothing else.It was boring, and he lost face in front of the girls, so he resolutely gave up the idea of ​​fishing.

At this time, Xu Qi leaned over and shouted: "Xu Qing! There are big fish!"

Xu Qing threw down the fishing rod and hurriedly hugged Xu Qi. The fishing rod moved suddenly and almost pulled the two of them into the sea. Fortunately, the fishing rod was tied with cotton thread. It broke with a "jump", throwing Xu Qing and Xu Qi on the side of the boat.

The people around were shocked when they saw this scene, and they were relieved to see that Xu Qing was still on the boat.They all came to see Haili and scolded: "What kind of beast is so strong!"

"Xu Qi, why don't you let go, you were almost caught by a fish." Xu Qing was still in shock, and buried Xu Qi.

Xu Qi snorted and replied bluntly: "Hmph, you are not strong enough, you are quite angry!"

"Uh..." Xu Qing was about to refute, only to hear the people next to him shouting "Da Yu, Da Yu!"

"Oh~ How many days does it take to eat such a big one?"

"Idiot, still want to eat, be careful to be eaten by fish!"

"This fish must be as big as several cows, right?"

Xu Qing swept his eyes, oh my god, this is not a big fish, it is a shark, a great white shark!

Xu Qing couldn't figure out if it was a great white shark, but the dorsal fin protruding from the water must be familiar.The shark was slightly out of the water, with a huge body, more than six meters long.In Xu Qing's eyes, the shark swam by the side of the boat as if it was showing off its muscles. The key is that the muscles are really useful.

Seeing that the shark had gone a little further, Xu Qing called back the man who had gone out to fish.The fisherman came over, and after listening to everyone's description, he suddenly said: "So it's a shark, that guy is really fierce."

"Do you recognize it?" Xu Qing asked back. Most of the people in Cangzhou don't go to sea, few can sail boats, and even fewer can fish. Unexpectedly, some people can recognize sharks.

When the fisherman saw Xu Qing was there, he didn't dare to worry about it. He quickly lowered his head and said, "The little one recognizes them. I heard the old man call out some of them when they rushed up from the shore."

"Oh..." Seeing that the fishing net was brought back, Xu Qing glanced at it, and someone immediately pulled it over, and said, "My lord, it's not long since this time, only these things..."

I saw some colorful fish picked up, Xu Qing didn't recognize any of them, waved his hand and said: "Oh, you can take it and eat it, eat it after you recognize it."

"This...thank you, my lord..." Although everyone hesitated, but remembering that seafood is "cheap food", the former governor may only like to catch it, but not to eat it.These people crept up and squatted to pick fish.There are not many fish, if everyone eats it, there is only enough to smell it.

Huang Shimei glanced at them, heyed, stopped their hands picking up the fish, pointed to a fish and said, "Clean this one up, keep it for me..." Huang Shimei still brought Miss Gui with her when talking to these people. Breath, high above.

"Oh, ma'am, you have good eyesight, this fish tastes the freshest!" Quickly picked it up with hands and feet, knocked it unconscious, and hurriedly carried it over.

Xu Qing asked, have you ever eaten this fish?Huang Shimei's previous nobility disappeared, and she replaced it with a soft voice. She said in a soft voice that she had eaten dried ones before, but never eaten fresh ones. This is called saury.

Okay, let's have a taste of Shimei's handicraft today, Xu Qing chuckles.

The fish was placed on the deck, Huang Shimei squatted down, and nodded the head of the fish. The fish trembled slightly, and she immediately retracted her hand in shock.Hearing Xu Qing's words, he turned his head and looked at him, meaning "try my craft, what are you kidding?"

So, Xu Qing was kicked into the kitchen.Half an hour later, a plate of pan-fried saury was brought out, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a tangy aroma.

After eating the fish, the sea was still calm without a trace of wind.This is the end of October, and it should be when the north wind keeps blowing, but now there is nothing, so strange.

Not only was there no wind, Xu Qing also felt stuffy, no, it was just stuffy, and he felt that his breathing was not smooth.Going outside, the sun in the sky is shining brightly, very low and oblique, and there is no temperature.

The bosun saw that everyone had almost rested, and asked Xu Qing if he wanted to row the boat manually.He said it might have entered the bay, and the wind was so light.Waiting is not an option, Xu Qing sent people to row the boat.

However, he didn't know that when the people killed the fish, they poured their blood into the sea, and the smell of blood had been dispersed by the sea water.

The ocean at this time has not been overfished by humans and is rich in fish.But because of this, there are also a lot of marine predators, and the competition among predators is much greater than in later generations.

Throwing a drop of blood down will make many hungry predators go crazy.

Soon.

"Brother, come out and see!" Xu Qi rushed to Xu Qing's room like a gust of wind, her face full of horror.

"What's the matter?" Xu Qing looked at Xu Qi defensively: "This time, don't take the opportunity to play hooligans..."

The last time Xu Qi sneaked in, it was to measure Xu Qing's leg length.that leg?I don't know... I don't know where this chick learned these nasty things.

"No, no..." Xu Qi breathed a sigh of relief, "There is a fairy island over there!"

Xu Qing got up: "Xiandao? Have you arrived in Penglai?"

When you ran outside, you saw that everyone on the boat was looking around.The side of the boat was full of people, so Xu Qing had to stand on tiptoe to watch, and saw that the sky in the distance was not the sky, but just the vast sea, with layers of strange peaks standing high and connected with each other. High and dangerous, flickering.

In a blink of an eye, a city tower appeared on the mountain, just like a densely populated city with magnificent buildings. Looking at the momentum, it looks like hundreds of thousands of households live in it.

Buddhist temples and Taoist temples are distributed on the street, and there is smoke wafting out of the temples. The two walls are clearly half-opened and half-closed, and even the door nails on them can be seen clearly.The Drum Tower is located on the left and right sides of the city like two wings, and the decorations on the eaves are gorgeous and exquisite.

Mirage!Xu Qing was surprised in his heart. Although he knew that this thing was not a fairy island, it was the first time he saw it, right?
All of a sudden, I was fascinated by watching it with everyone, and I saw the city in the mirage slowly shrinking in size, turning into a building, a floor of rooms, and then slowly disappearing.

"Ah, Xiandao is gone!"

Xu Qi's crisp voice sounded, and everyone came back to their senses and whispered to each other.

"Oh, I heard that Lord Inspector is the reincarnation of a god, uh..."

"Could it be that the gods in the sea saw Lord Inspector and asked Lord Inspector to drink tea?"

"Nah, nah, I didn't expect that I would also have a fairy fate?"

"Hahaha……"

"Hey?" Someone finally looked around and asked suspiciously, "Where is this? Why is there fog?"

"wonderland?"

Xu Qing had discovered something was wrong early on. When everyone was obsessed with the mirage and couldn't extricate themselves, the boat had already turned quietly. I don't know if it encountered an undercurrent or a sea breeze. At this time, it had already gone tens of miles.

Moreover, some thin mist suddenly rose around, and the sun was also hidden in the clouds.Xu Qing called the girls into the room and observed them on the third floor.

There is no difference.In addition to being a little puzzled about the ship going to a strange place.

Who changed the route?Xu Qing started to get scared, don't make any trouble on this boat that can't go up to the sky or get off the ground.

At this time, Zhang Linye pushed Xu Qi to come, and with one sentence, the big stone in Xu Qing's heart was put down.

"Brother Xu, it's all Xu Qi's fault, she told me to change the route to find Xiandao!"

"You can't blame me, it's all Xu Qing's fault. I was stupid when I saw Xiandao, and Xiandao is not Xue'er!"

It turned out that it was Xu Qi's trick, but Xu Qing felt a little rejoiced, pretended to be angry and taught Xu Qi a few words, and asked Zhang Linye to turn the bow and go back.

But the strange thing is that there is no wind at this time.

What's even more annoying is that the fog seems to be gradually thickening, and it's getting late.The bosun realized the seriousness of the matter, called everyone to the oarsroom, and started rowing back.
