The night passed quickly, and at dawn the next day, everyone was woken up by the members of the Blood Eagle Hall. After packing their things, they headed to the dock with Du Shanlai leading them.
Here, Wu Gong also met the so-called ship boss Tao Weizhong, a short and fat middle-aged man with good cultivation, on the same level as Du Shang.
As Du Shanlai said, Tao Weizhong was very greedy for money. When he met Wu Gong before he had finished greeting him, he nodded, stretched out his hand and rubbed his fingers towards Wu Gong without any politeness.
Wu Gong was also confused for a moment. After he came to his senses, he chose to pretend to be stupid: "What... do you mean?"
"Don't understand?" Tao Weizhong asked.
Wu Gong was ashamed for a moment and could only make an expression of realization.
"I understand...how much?"
"One person, this number." Tao Weizhong said, holding out five fingers to Wu Gong.
"Five taels?"
"Do you think this is possible?"
"Fifty taels?"
"no."
"Damn you! Do you believe that I will kill you now?"
"It's not that easy to take you into Fengzhou. When we get to the pass, people from the government will come up to inspect the ship. If you are discovered, we won't be able to carry you around."
"Then five hundred taels? If not, I will kill you immediately!"
Tao Weizhong's expression obviously hesitated for a moment. Feeling the evil spirit emanating from Wu Gong's body, he couldn't help but shiver in his heart. He had no choice but to nod.
"That's five hundred taels."
Wu Gong's expression softened, but after calculation, each of the seven people paid 500 taels, which added up to 3,500 taels... This amount was not small, and he suddenly felt so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe.
He looked at Dushanlai and raised his head to signal him. How could Dushanlai not understand what he meant? His face suddenly turned bitter, and he said sadly: "Sir, I, Du, and my wife usually stay on one-third of an acre of land. Where can I have so much silver?"
Then Wu Gong looked at Wang Zhongzhu and others. They noticed his gaze and all of them became sad.
"Boss, you know us, we don't even have any stature!"
"Yes! Look, boss, this is called Two Sleeves Breeze."
"Fuck you!"
Wu Gong couldn't help but cursed angrily, and turned to look at Tsurumi Chuyun, who narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at him speechlessly.
"Miss Jiang, I remember that you still have a lot of money... isn't this... that point?"
He rolled his eyes when he saw Chuyun and didn't bother to say anything. She couldn't tell it before, but now she realized that Wu Gong was really stingy.
Looking away, she looked at Tao Weizhong, took out one thousand taels of silver from the storage space and put it on the ground. Then she said to Wu Gong, "I only give out one thousand taels. You can figure out the rest by yourself." After that, she went to the side and ignored Wu Gong and the others.
Wu Gong smiled awkwardly. Three thousand five hundred taels of silver. Now that one thousand is removed, there are still two thousand five hundred taels. But this is still not small money. He also wants to squeeze some more out of others, but who has it now? money?
There is no one left.
There was really no other way, so he could only face Tao Weizhong again, then put his hand out of his arms, preparing to bleed himself.
Tao Weizhong picked up the bag that Hejian Chuyun had placed on the ground. The amount was enough, one thousand taels was enough. Then he looked at Wu Gong, noticed his movement, and reached out to pick it up.
Wu Gong hesitated, and finally took out two pieces of gold from his arms.
At first, he thought it was silver or something, but when he saw the bright yellow gold, Tao Weizhong was stunned.
"Yellow...gold?"
The hand stretched out in the air froze. Wu Gong glanced at him, handed over the gold he took out from his arms, and said angrily: "What a fool, do you want it or not?"
"Yes... of course!" Tao Weizhong quickly took it, but Wu Gong was unwilling to let go when he grabbed the gold. After a stalemate for a while, he reluctantly let go of his hand.
After getting the gold, Tao Weizhong weighed it in his hands. The two pieces of gold were not big, but together they were definitely two hundred taels.
Normally, one tael of gold is equal to ten taels of silver. Wu Gong is short of two thousand five hundred taels of silver, so he should be given two hundred and fifty taels of gold. But now the weight of these two pieces of gold is far less than two hundred and fifty taels. Ten taels, but Tao Weizhong didn't care. Gold was rare. Under normal circumstances, the ratio of gold to silver was more than one to ten.
Also, how much does two thousand five hundred taels of silver cost? It is very inconvenient to carry, and the gold is so small that it is easy to hide.
"Is that enough?"
"That's enough, that's enough."
"Then let's get on the boat and set off early." Wu Gong said, and was about to take people on the boat, but Tao Weizhong hurriedly stopped them.
"Hey, don't worry, we still have some things to do, and we won't set sail in a while."
"What else do you have?" Wu Gong looked at Tao Weizhong and frowned, and Tao Weizhong sighed: "These are our matters, so don't worry about it. You won't understand even if I say it. It will take a while anyway." , it won’t take long for you to wander around here and have something to eat, and when we finish the work, we will naturally set off to Dajing.”
"How long do you need?"
"More than half an hour."
"Damn it!"
Wu Gong cursed loudly and stopped walking to the boat. He led the people down again and sat under the fence at the edge of the pier.
Tao Weizhong suddenly demanded more than 200 taels of gold from him. It was strange that he was in a good mood. Every swear word in his mouth was almost directed at Tao Weizhong, which made people worried that he would choose to kill him when he got to his destination. donkey.
Tao Weizhong shook his head and didn't care. He looked at Du Shanglai and took some boatmen away, not knowing what he was going to do.
As for Tsurumi Hatsuun, after she learned that it would take half an hour to set off, she started wandering around alone.
There were many people on the pier, and there were some stalls and vendors on the roadside. She wanted to walk around and see if there was anything she could buy here.
You know, although she just handed over one thousand taels of silver, she still has nearly four thousand taels of silver in the storage space. She is a veritable little rich woman. With her wealth and freedom, she has no worries about not having enough money to spend.
Unless you buy those ridiculously expensive magic weapons.
But after walking around, she found that there was nothing to buy on the pier, and she didn't like those products at all.
After walking around for a long time, she finally found a shop that sold candy. There were many children around. When she went in, she saw that there were all kinds of candies. She tasted some and felt that they were pretty good. She waved her hand and bought various candies. I bought several jars of candies and planned to keep them on the road to eat. In total, I spent more than twenty taels of silver.
After doing this, it was estimated that half an hour had passed, and he headed back to where he was before.
When they saw Wu Gong again, Tao Weizhong and the boatmen under him had also returned from their work. At this moment, they were greeting everyone to get on the boat. In addition to the six Wu Gong people and the boatmen under Tao Weizhong, there were more people around. Many dock workers were working together to move large boxes into the ship's warehouse.
After getting on the ship, Wu Gonghe was arranged into the room below the ship's cabin when he saw Chu Yun. According to Tao Weizhong, this area is the most hidden place in the ship's hull. Even if the government comes to check, they will rarely find it. Come here.
Wugong and the others on the boat were a little excited and looked around curiously in the cabin. They never thought that the inside of the boat would look like this. However, after waiting for a while, they found that the boat had not moved, so they opened the window in the cabin. Looking out the window, I found that there were many dock workers outside, moving boxes into the ship in batches.
The entrance to the area where Wugong and the others were located was also blocked by dock workers with boxes under the command of Tao Weizhong.
The box made a clanging sound when it fell, and it sounded like it contained some porcelain.
After waiting for a while, the dock workers stopped moving goods into the ship, and the ship finally started to move. The huge sail spread out, covering the sky and the sun, and it left the shore, and was pushed forward slowly by the wind.
In a separate room, Tsurumi Chuyun released Shen Yi and let him breathe by the window.
When you stick your head out the window, you can hear the howling wind, and you can see a row of huge oars swinging left and right, creating waves on the wide Bailan River.
You can still faintly hear the sound of the boatman above.
The movement of the big ship began to speed up, and the magnificent Jizhou City gradually grew farther away from the field of vision, became smaller, and then disappeared.
"You've never been on a boat?" Tsurumi Chuyun next to him asked.
Shen Yi shook his head: "No."
It is true that he has never been on a ship, no, to be precise, he has never been on such a big ship. In his previous life, he had only seen cruise ships on TV and short videos, but had never really been exposed to them.
Something strange yet familiar.
I looked up at the sky. It should be seven o'clock now, right?
Thinking of this, Shen Yi closed his eyes and counted the seconds motionlessly.
"I've already made the headgear you mentioned. Do you want to try it?"
"Wait."
"Oh." Shen Yi said this. This was not the first time Hejian Chuyun had seen him. She was already used to it. At such times, she would usually wait quietly.
And Shen Yi counted silently in his heart, and didn't open his eyes again until the number counted from one to eight hundred.
Now he can confirm that perspective sharing will occur from 7:00 to 7:10 sharp in the morning, and from 19:00 to 19:10 in the afternoon.
No matter which side, if the perspective is successfully shared, the duration will not exceed five minutes.
Shen Yi wants to prevent Chen Xingyun from seeing what he can see. Logically speaking, he only needs to close his eyes for ten minutes. However, there are no clocks in this world. Shen Yi really cannot determine the time. Closing his eyes for 800 seconds is just to be on the safe side. .
After opening his eyes, he immediately looked at the hood made by Tsurumi Hatsuun, and then stretched his head over it.
"I'll try it on."
When He saw Chuyun, he was about to put it on his head, but then he stopped.
"No, your two scales are blocking it, so I can't get it in."
"This..." Shen Yi turned his head and squinted his eyes to see the two horn-like scales on his head.
"what to do?"
Shen Yi thought for a moment, felt cruel, and said, "Take it out for me!"
"Really...really?"
"How can I get it on if I don't pull it out?"
"Okay...did I try hard?"
"pull!"
"..."
"Pull it out!"
"You can't blame me later, you asked me to do this."
"...I don't blame you. Hurry up. I'll count to three. Pull it out when I count to one."
"good."
"three."
"two."
"one!"
"Ah!"
"Ouch!!"
"..."
"What's wrong?"
"Damn! Can you please be gentle? It hurts me to death."
"How can I pull it out without using any force?"
Shen Yi looked at He Jian Chuyun's hand and saw that the scales on one side of his head had been pulled out by her roots. Taking a deep breath, he turned around and faced her with the other side.
"This way."
"I caught it."
"Come."
"Um."
"three!"
"two."
"One! Pull out!"
Phew~
"Hiss~"
Shen Yi's mouth was twisted in pain. At this time, the scales on both sides were pulled off, and steaming dragon blood continued to flow out of his head. .
Tsurumi Chuyun put the two pieces of scale armor into the storage space, then hurriedly took out a rag to wipe the blood from his head, and hurriedly applied medicine on it.
"It's not better."
"That's it."
The intense pain made Shen Yi feel a little dizzy, but he had experienced the uncomfortable pain of keeping his head closed, and soon recovered, and asked Tsurumi Chuyun to help him put on the headgear.
"Old witch, please help me put it on and take a look."
The headgear made by Hejian Chuyun was a bit big, and Shen Yi felt loose after putting it on, but it didn't matter. Shen Yi pinched his paws and applied precise force. His body slowly grew bigger, and soon his head It fits tightly with the headgear.
The old witch's hands are very skillful. There is nothing to say about the appearance of this hood, but the feeling after wearing it is really unflattering and uncomfortable. It also blocks the field of vision.
And she looked at Shen Yi expectantly, as if waiting for his praise.
"Okay?"
But Shen Yi ignored it at all and said quickly: "Mirror, give me the mirror."
After getting the mirror, he used his remaining field of vision to see what he looked like after putting on the hood. At first glance, he looked like an ordinary B-level life-god cold-armored roving beast. However, upon closer inspection, he found that many places were not so agile and a little stiff. .
"No, I'm a little dull."
"Wait a moment."
Tsurumi Chuyun took out something, then wiped a very fine mud on Shen Yi's neck, and then used some tools to trim the hood. After a while, she said: "Look again look."
Shen Yi picked up the mirror and looked at it again, and found that this time the self in the mirror was a little more agile and biological. Although it was still a little stiff, it was no longer so easy to tell that it was a fake Hanjia Parade.
Of course, if you don't look at your body.
"Is that okay?"
"Okay, okay." Shen Yi was very satisfied, and then took off his hood. Starting from tomorrow, he will wear the hood to look in the mirror, exposing himself to Chen Xingyun.
