When Luo Guo saw Han Du coming over, he smiled apologetically at Han Du.

Han Du ignored him, but instead saw the displeasure written on Luo Daisi's face, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong? Who made you unhappy?"

"It's Grandpa!" The child's voice was sharp.

Han Du raised his head and asked Luo Guo, "What's going on? If you don't get on the boat quickly, why are you still here?"

"Uncle, please forgive me," Luo Guo said apologetically, "I was just preparing to get on the boat after settling my ribbons, but she refused to stay and insisted on going with me."

"Then let's go together. What's the point?" Han Du said nonchalantly, "I don't know how many days it will take for us to go to sea this time. She has been dependent on you since she was a child. Of course she will be uncomfortable with this sudden separation."

Seeing that Han Du didn't understand the connection, Luo Guo explained: "Uncle, I don't know. Women belong to yin and men belong to yang. Boats and water are in contact with each other. Naturally, they are already in a very yin place. They naturally need the yang of men." Attributes and abilities are used to reconcile it. If women are allowed to board the ship, it will inevitably lead to imbalance of yin and yang, and then the Dragon King will not bless the ship. Therefore, women have always been prohibited from boarding the ship, even children."

"Is there any other way to say this?" Han Du said blankly.

Luo Guo nodded solemnly, indicating that this was no small matter.

But Han Du didn't care at all and curled his lips and said: "It's just nonsense."

"Uncle, this has been said since ancient times. Don't dare to ignore it." Seeing Han Du's indifferent expression, Luo Guo quickly reminded him.

Han Du said calmly: "The ships of the ancients were just small sampans, but what are the ships of the Ming Dynasty?" He pointed at the warship, "How can they be compared with such a huge warship? If you use a small sampan to go to the sea, then Just leave your life to God, and naturally you have to pray for the blessing of the Dragon King. But standing on such a warship feels like walking on flat ground, what else is there to be taboo about?"

"Ahem," Zhang Chao on the side interjected, "Uncle, actually the navy also has this taboo."

Han Du glared at Zhang Chao, somewhat dissatisfied with him for trying to make trouble in front of him. So he said: "You are not afraid of Japanese pirates from birth to death, but you are still afraid of this? My uncle is also on the boat, what are you afraid of?"

Zhang Chao was speechless and could only lower his head and said: "My uncle is so blessed that he can protect this child easily."

"Uncle, can I accompany grandpa on the boat?" Luo Daisi bit her finger and asked timidly.

Han Du touched her head and said with a smile: "Of course."

But even so, Luo Guo's expression was not very good and he still objected, "Uncle, this is absolutely not allowed. If it is passed down from the older generation, it makes sense..."

Han Du shook his head and retorted, "Choose the good ones and follow them, and change the bad ones... Forget it, you don't understand even if you tell me. Now you just need to listen to me and get on the boat!"

After saying that, he stretched out his hand, took Luo Daisi and walked towards the seaside.

Luo Guo stood there, looking at Han Du's back, sighing deeply, with tears flashing in the corners of his eyes. Seeing how much Han Du cared for his granddaughter, he was truly relieved and even felt that it was worth dying.

Zhang Chao thought that Luo Guo was stubborn and didn't want the little girl to get on the boat, so he walked to Luo Guo and persuaded her: "Let's go. My uncle always says what he says. It's useless no matter how unwilling you are to decide."

After hearing this, Luo Guo sighed, fell one position behind Zhang Chao, and secretly touched the corner of his eye.

The warship quickly put down the two small boats, and Jiang Ming stood on the bow and headed towards the seaside.

When the springboard was lowered, Jiang Ming strode to Han Du and bowed.

"The end will come soon. Please punish me."

"Get up," Han Du waved his hand to Jiang Ming to get up. "It didn't take long. What kind of crime is being punished? Come and start."

"Uncle Xie."

Han Du nodded, which was considered a response. He turned to Zou Xing and said, "Mr. Zou, I will leave the construction of the plank road here to you."

"Don't worry, uncle. I will do my best not to let you down." Zou Xing immediately patted his chest and assured.

Han Du listened and nodded, "You should try your best, but you can't drive the people too much. The money and food that should be provided must be given, and the tea that should be prepared must be prepared. I don't want any of the people to be because of this. We don’t want a common person to fall ill due to lack of food and clothing, and we don’t want a common person to fall ill due to overwork. Do you understand?”

"Don't worry, Uncle, I will definitely make arrangements for you."

"Then uncle, don't worry." Then he gave an order to everyone, "Get on the boat!"

The group of people passed through the gangplank and stepped onto the boat, which was then sent to the warship.

When the soldiers on the warship saw a little girl getting on the warship, they all had strange expressions on their faces, but when they saw that it was Han Du holding Luo Daisi's hand, they all turned a blind eye.

Change the sail, turn the rudder.

The three huge beasts began to move slowly towards the sea under the influence of the sea wind. After turning the bow, the sails were fully opened, and the warship's speed suddenly accelerated, heading towards the sea.

As soon as Luo Daisi got on the boat, she was like a lamb running off the reins, looking at everything with curiosity. She had never seen such a tall ship, so she kept running back and forth from bow to stern.

When Han Du saw Luo Daisi having fun, he couldn't help but smile. He turned to the hunchback and said, "Now it depends on your ability. You have the final say on how to go and where to go."

"Uncle, please don't worry. Now is the time when there are the most idiots. After we go to sea, we may be able to meet them without even looking for them." Luo Guo was full of confidence.

Although he had not been to the sea for more than ten years, once he came to the sea, familiar memories came one after another like a flood that opened the floodgates. Even every breath of sea breeze breathed into the lungs carries with it a familiar taste and memory.

Luo Guo stood on the bow of the ship, looking at the sea that looked the same to others with a solemn expression. He kept dribbling his fingers with saliva, then raised it high, closing his eyes to feel something.

Seeing Luo Guo Shen's nagging behavior, Jiang Ming said to Han Du who was sitting on the deck behind: "Uncle, what is he doing? Is it useful?"

"How does Uncle Ben know what he is doing?" Han Du replied angrily, "But every old fisherman has their own secret technique for finding fish, maybe this is it."

Hearing the word "secret skill", Jiang Ming couldn't help but look at Luo Guo twice. After looking at it for a long time, I was still confused, so I had to give up and ignore Luo Guo.

However, as time continued to pass, Jiang Ming, who was originally quiet, couldn't help but become anxious.

"Uncle, he has been looking for so long, can he find the fish?"
