Chapter 563: Where is the entrance?

Three days after Ning Que's arrival, the sailboat was finally transformed, and everyone went to the dock to watch the first sea sailing ship in Zhongzhou. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

It was a brig, still with the hull of an oar, but with two extra masts and stiff sails reinforced with bamboo poles on both sides.

Wang Ke secretly laughed, this kind of hard sailing ship is a unique type of sailing ship in China, and I don't think of this similar Central Continent in ancient China, the first sailing ship to appear, or a hard sailing ship.

He also wanted to build Western sailing ships in the Age of Discovery, but both design and operation were much more complicated, and it was estimated that it would take ten years and eight years to really study them.

Rather than this, it is better to choose a hard sailing ship that is easier to make, and the voyage is not bad, Zheng He also used it to go down to the Western Ocean, not to mention the three-hundred-mile sea route.

"Wang Ke, can this thing float across the ocean?" asked Li Canghai with a wine burp.

"No problem. Wang Ke patted his chest and reassured.

"Will you drive?" asked Li Canghai again.

"No, no one will, we all have to explore the new things that we have made up for the first time. Wang Ke said.

"Let's go, let's get on the boat, and study how to drive this ship. Hao Tianji said.

The men got on board, tried to adjust the direction of the sails, and sailed the boat into the near sea.

I have to say that Chinese hard sailing ships are far more convenient and simple to handle than Western sailing ships, and can withstand the wind in many ways, and are not as fast as Western-style sailing ships, but they are definitely the most suitable for Wang Ke and them.

Unfortunately, no one, including Wang Ke, knew how to control the sails, and the ship had just left the dock and spun on the water.

A group of great grandmasters were shouting and manipulating the sails, but it had no effect, amusing Xia Xueqing and Chu Chu, who were watching the excitement on the shore.

Wang Ke looked at the first generation of ships in Zhongzhou, and couldn't help wiping a cold sweat: "At this level, let alone three hundred miles, whether you can sail out of three miles is a question." ”

Fortunately, the control of the hard sailboat was simple, and the people on board were all talented and intelligent, and finally after half an hour, they figured out the trick and allowed the sailboat to barely walk in a straight line.

After seven days, almost everyone was able to maneuver the sails nimbly, sailing farther and farther, and finally entering the storm zone a hundred miles away and returning safely.

This voyage that was not far away made everyone confident, and they decided to set off for the Martial Saint's Vault the next day.

Although the journey was not too far, it was the farthest voyage in Middle-earth, and Wang Ke made full preparations.

The compass, fresh water, and food are all essential, and in order to prevent him from getting lost, Wang Ke prepared a full seven or eight days' worth of fresh water and food, and even brought a few more sails.

Hao Tianji saw that he was so nervous, and comforted him: "Wang Ke, you don't have to be like this, but three hundred miles by sea, you won't lose your way." ”

The Holy Land of Kunlun is on the island, and he often travels back and forth to Central-earth, and he has a lot of experience in identifying the direction of the sea, and he has never worried about getting lost.

"Uncle Hao, be careful to sail the 10,000-year-old ship, in case of a real hurricane, we may not be blown anywhere. Wang Ke said.

"What you say makes sense, so let's prepare. Hao Tianji said.

The next day, the wind and the sun were beautiful, it was a good weather for sailing, Wang Ke said goodbye to Xia Xueqing and Chu Chu, and boarded the ship with everyone and set sail.

Everyone first drove along the coast to find the cape facing the Martial Saint's Vault, then adjusted the sails and sailed towards the ocean.

Soon, it was in the storm zone, the wind was howling, the waves were rolling, and the ship was constantly jolting on the sea.

Wang Ke held the compass and looked at the map, acting as a navigator, and Hao Tianji stood on the bow of the ship, acting as a lookout, and there was nothing missing from the reef under the sea.

Ning Que held the helm at the stern, Xia Bingyang and Chu Tianshu operated the sails, and the others rowed the reserved oars to fight the storm together.

If ordinary people came to operate the sails, I am afraid that they would not be able to withstand this strong wind for a long time, but in the hands of the Great Grandmaster, the sails obediently stopped where they wanted to stay, urging the sea ship to sail towards the Martial Saint Vault.

Finally, after passing through the storm zone, the sea calmed down, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ke'er, is it right that the direction is wrong?" Xia Bingyang asked.

"That's right, keep going, it won't be long before you arrive. Wang Ke said.

After another four hours, a dark shadow appeared on the sea level, and Wang Ke stretched out his hand and pointed there and shouted, "Look, there is the Martial Saint Vault, we are about to arrive!"

Sure enough, the shadow grew bigger and bigger, and it was already obvious that it was an island.

The island is surrounded by cliffs, but in the middle there is a sword peak that reaches into the sky, exactly like the landscape painting on the treasure map.

Everyone was overjoyed, and their hard work was not in vain, they finally found the Martial Saint Vault.

"Let's work harder!" Li Canghai shouted, as if the oars in his hands were flying.

In a short time, the ship approached the island and circled the island, which was thirty or forty miles long.

The island is surrounded by cliffs, but it still finds a sheltered harbor, drops sail and anchors.

Although the cliff is more than 100 zhang high, for everyone, it is just a pediatric, and they immediately show their skills to climb up.

When you reach the top of the cliff, look down, sure enough, there is a crescent moon lake, the center of the lake is towering the peak of Jian Mountain, the lake is full of flowers, green trees, the scenery is very good.

Wang Ke picked up the treasure map, compared it with the scene in front of him, and said: "The map is not here, let's find the location on the map first, and then find the entrance." ”

Everyone walked along the crater mountain range, and Wang Ke compared the terrain in front of him from time to time, and finally found the location drawn on the map.

After walking for more than ten miles, Wang Ke stopped, took a closer look, and said, "This is it." ”

"Where is the entrance?" asked Hao Tianji.

Wang Ke stretched out his hand and pointed at the nine Martial Saint Seals and said, "If I'm not wrong, the entrance should be in these nine places. ”

Everyone looked at the map, and saw that the nine imprints almost presented a nine-square grid, distributed on various mountains.

However, according to the location on the map, there is only a rock, and there is no entrance.

Li Canghai pointed to the opposite Jianfeng and said, "Wang Ke, could it be a mistake? ”

"Uncle Li, it shouldn't be wrong, the reason why you can't see it is because the entrance is covered by the formation. Wang Ke said.

"It's going to break the formation again...... It's so troublesome, I said that which of you took out the formation of the Yin and Yang Family, let me learn it too. Li Canghai said.

"This is not good, if you can participate in the Martial Saint Vault, you can be content, don't worry about our formation. Besides, it's useless to worry about it, we can't break the formation now, it's all up to Wang Ke. Wei Tianxiang said with a smile.

"Old Wei, you iron rooster, I don't believe that there is no formation in the Martial Saint Vault!" Li Canghai tapped Wei Tianxiang with his finger and urged: "Wang Ke, hurry up and break the formation, I can't wait!" )
