Song of Adolescence

Lei Wujie looked at the ship, moved in his heart, and asked, "Can this ship sail to San Snake Island?"

Pearl glanced at him strangely: "You are so strange, always thinking about what to do on San Snake Island? There are venomous snakes there, and you will die immediately after a bite."

"I just want to go and see, after all, that is the end of the legendary sea." Lei Wujie smiled, "You haven't answered my question yet."

"Yes, this is the cedar long ship. There are only 62 ships in Beili." Pearl frowned and thought for a while. "I remember my father said that it is forty-four meters long and 18 meters wide. The largest and fastest ship. In this world, only the long cedar can sail that far into the sea."

"So it's like this." Lei Wujie suddenly realized, "Pearl, you know boats well."

"My dad told me that my dad was the best craftsman in our city back then, and was also called to participate in the construction of the cedar long ship." Pearl said with some pride.

"I understand." Lei Wujie nodded and picked up the fish pocket, "Then I will go back to my friends first."

"Are you coming tomorrow?" Pearl was slightly lost.

"That's natural, will this sea market still exist tomorrow?" Lei Wujie asked.

"Yes, this time it is Dahai City. It will be there for three consecutive days." Pearl said with a smile.

"Then I will bring my friends here tomorrow." Lei Wujie said to Pearl, then turned his head and glanced at the big ship thoughtfully.

Guanchao Inn.

Although the name is elegant, it is actually a bit shabby and deserted, and it is a match for the bleak Xueluo Mountain Villa. He was lying on the bed tiredly, his eyes closed slightly. Tang Lian sat at the small table. Seeing that the sky was getting darker, she took out the flint and lit a candle.

"Big brother." Xiao Se called out to senior brother.

"I know what you want to say." Tang Lian interrupted him and took it on herself, "I'm hungry too."

The stomachs of both people called at the same time.

Tang Lian sighed: "You shouldn't let that stinky boy go out. That stinky boy is too unreliable. It has been more than two hours and he hasn't come back, and I don't know where to go to play. Shouldn't it... something unexpected?"

"No, our whereabouts are well hidden along the way, and no one is following it. After the First World War of Leijiapu, the undercover loss was not small, and there has been no movement recently." Xiao Se thought for a while, "I guess."

"It should have been drowned in the sea!"

Tang Lian nodded with a wry smile: "I really hope that what you said is true."

"Hey, big brother, why are you following this stinky fox to talk bad about me now?" Lei Wujie kicked the door open, walked a few steps and threw a large basin of sea crabs on the table with a "clam". "I bought crabs again and cooked them for you. Is it easy for me?"

Suddenly, the smell of crabs filled the room. Xiao Se, who was dying on the bed, immediately jumped out of the bed, moved a stool and sat down at the table, but his tone was still cold: "Let you go out and buy some food, then let You bought some raw crabs and cooked them. Where did you get them?"

"That's a long story. I went to the famous seaside fishing market. There are such big tortoises." Lei Wujie exaggeratedly compared gestures, "There is also such a long green spot fish."

Xiao Se was eating a crab. He was stunned when he heard this sentence, and dropped the crab in his hand on the table: "Such a big sea turtle, such a long green spotted fish. Okay, you have forgotten the time when you go shopping. If you don’t mention it, I’ll just ask you why the last thing I brought back was crabs except for crabs!"

Lei Wujie stretched out a finger and said proudly: "Because it is cheap, such a big pot, it's not deceptive, only ten copper plates!"

Tang Lian and Xiao Se looked at each other. Tang Lian's anger at the sight of the food was mostly gone, and she turned into that kind of gracious master again: "Senior Brother Lei is correct in this consideration. I don’t know how much money it will cost to ship. Xiaoshi, you are weak, so don’t get angry."

"I'm pooh." Xiao Se said the word "pooh" perfectly, and he did not look like a seriously ill person at all. He patted the table, "I am the owner of Xueluo Mountain Villa. I won a city on the Qianjintai. Man. I will have no money to take a boat, I will buy one for you!"

"Well, Xiao Zhuangzhu is domineering, Xiao Chengzhu is mighty." Lei Wujie picked up the pot of crabs and took it away, "Then Young Master Xiao, can you still eat it?"

"Eat!" Xiao Se pressed the pot of crabs.

The three of them finally started eating crabs quietly, and all of a sudden there was only the sound of shelling and sucking. Just eating, Xiao Se suddenly wondered: "Where do these shells come from?"

"It was given to me by a local fisherman girl." Lei Wujie smiled, "but I promised to return her a mirror, Xiao, what mirror do you have, give me a side?"

"Yes." Xiao Se answered simply, took out a small silver mirror from his arms and placed it on the table.

"Is it a bit small?" Lei Wujie hurriedly took it over, and said disgustingly, "I don't seem to be generous enough, but it's quite delicate." Although the mirror is small, the patterns on the corners are The carving is extremely detailed.

"This was made by the court craftsman Zuo San. On the one hand, I can buy a thousand bronze mirrors you mentioned." Xiao Se said coldly, "I think you have a rare peach blossom, so I can barely give it to you."

"Peach Blossom?" Lei Wujie was taken aback for a while, and then angrily said, "Oh, you are so desperate, you are afraid that I will steal Miss Ye from you, so you want to find a chance to send me out, right! No way, I tell you!"

"Shut up!" Xiao Se glared at him.

"I didn't expect you to be such a person! Lei Wujie is really blind, and I have said that good men play fair..." Lei Wujie still talked about himself. Xiao Se was too lazy to care about him, and continued to lower his head to eat crabs.

"Okay, okay." Tang Lian yelled, "Stop making trouble, let you inquire about the ship, have you inquired about it?"

Lei Wujie turned away angrily: "I've asked, the boat here can't drive that far. And the officials won't let it go."

"In the deep sea a hundred miles away, ordinary fishermen are forbidden to enter. That is the Guanhai area. After Beili issued a ban on sea twelve years ago, only the official ships of the Dongjihai Municipal Government and the merchant ships that obtained the line Drive into the deep sea." Xiao Se said.

"Just you know a lot!" Lei Wujie said grimly, "If you know, let me ask it, and it's a waste of my time."

"Let you go and have a look to see if there are any large merchant ships that have been leaning here recently. Large merchant ships generally have their own business cards." Xiao Se said.

"There is one," Lei Wujie said suddenly. "It's a very big boat, called the Cedar Long Boat. The girl said that this boat can go far into the sea."

"Cedar Long Boat!" Xiao Se and Tang Lian were both surprised.

"Yes, there is also a very majestic flag on the ship, on which is a phoenix that seems to fly away from the fire!" Lei Wujie recalled.

"Is it an official ship?" Tang Lian frowned and asked Xiao Se.

Xiao Se shook his head and looked solemnly: "No, the flag painted on it is called'Phoenix Yufei', which is the emblem of the Mu family in Qingzhou."

"Mu Family?"

"Yes, the richest man in Qingzhou, Mu's family."
