March twenty.
The sun was shining brightly and the sky was as blue as blue.
There is a gentle breeze on the sea and the waves are sparkling.
A huge ship hundreds of feet long was sailing rapidly from north to south on the sea.
The high-rising white sail is painted with a pattern of two crossed giant swords, with a huge word "Yu" written underneath the pattern.
This is the merchant ship of the Yu family of Zhongyue Jiangnan.
The wind on the sea was very light, only blowing up the white sail a little.
This wind force is far from enough to provide sailing power for this huge ship.
But the ship was flying on the sea.
That's because there are more than three hundred star-level experts in the cabin below, who are desperately pedaling the paddle wheels to provide power for the navigation of this huge ship.
These people are all ship slaves raised by the Yu family.
At the same time, in front of the ship, under the invisible sea, there were three giant beasts hundreds of feet tall, pulling the ship forward with iron chains.
This is the deep sea beast tamed by the Yu family.
This merchant ship departed from the Yu Family's Whipton Port and sailed to Gunan.
The boats are loaded with specialties from Zhongyue, and they are in hot demand when shipped to Gunan.
In addition to cargo, there were also many ferry passengers heading to Gunan.
Zhongyue and Gunan are separated by Aguyang.
Aguyang is vast and boundless.
From north to south, flying at the normal speed of an Earth Saint Realm expert, it would take at least a year and a half to cross this sea area.
This shows how broad it is.
Therefore, even those who are strong in the Holy Realm do not dare to fly across this ocean alone if they are not familiar with the sea conditions, because it is very easy to lose their way on the sea.
In addition, the sea is full of unknown dangers.
Such as terrifying tsunamis and thunderstorms.
The most terrifying thing is to encounter the giant beasts of the deep sea. Even if you are as powerful as the Holy Realm, you may become their meal.
It took the ancestors of the Yu family more than two hundred years and countless manpower, material and financial resources to open up a channel on the Agu Ocean.
Although the effort is huge, the rewards are also huge.
The opening of the waterway is equivalent to opening up the commercial route between Zhongyue and Gunan.
If you transport a ship full of goods to Gunan like this, you can earn at least two hundred Saint Yuan Pills.
One round trip is almost five hundred Saint Yuan Dan.
As for such huge cargo ships, the Yu family has a total of twenty.
There are also hundreds of small and medium-sized cargo ships.
It only took a few years for the Yu family to make back the huge expense of opening up the waterway, and now they have already made a lot of money.
It can be said that the ancestors of the Yu family have spent more than two hundred years of hard work and opened up a way for future generations to make money with their eyes closed.
As long as future generations do not commit suicide, they will be able to enjoy wealth and honor forever from generation to generation.
Five hundred years ago, Fufeng avenged Dong Xuanji and almost wiped out the Yu family.
If Fufeng hadn't still had a trace of kindness and reason in his heart at that time, and felt that this waterway would be of great benefit to the cultivators in Zhongyue and Gunan, he would definitely have cut off the Yu family's financial path first.
Now the Yu family relies on this financial path to strengthen the family strength.
Even stronger than five hundred years ago.
The Dong family, who shared the same fate as the Yu family, has been in dire straits ever since Fufeng forced them to close their gates.
From a first-class family back then, it has fallen to a small third-rate family today.
Nowadays, the Yu family doesn't even like to look at the Dong family.
"Ouch, no good! Grandpa Black is here!"
"Reef the sails, reef the sails quickly!"
"Stop the paddle wheel!"
"Open the protective shield!"
"Everyone quickly hide in the cabin and don't stay on the deck, otherwise there will be consequences at your own risk!"
A burst of hurried shouting broke the silence on the boat.
The sky where the sun was still shining just now suddenly turned dark.
towards darkness
Looking in the direction of the attack, I saw dark clouds rolling in from the southeastern sky.
The sky cannot see the sky, and the sea cannot see the sea. It is like there is a monster hidden in the dark clouds, swallowing both the sky and the sea into its belly.
Wow!
The wind and waves on the sea were getting higher and higher, hitting the hull of the ship hard and making a huge noise.
The sailor moved extremely quickly and neatly furled the sail before the strong wind blew.
Facing the coming storm, there was no fear on their faces because they had long been accustomed to it.
Even the passengers on the boat didn't have much frightened reaction after hearing the sailor's shouts.
They have followed this huge cargo ship on the sea voyage for more than two months, and have encountered three storms and one thunderstorm. Each time there was no danger, so they have gradually adapted to it and know that the boss of the ship has perfect measures to deal with dangerous situations. , it is very safe to stay on board.
No, after hearing the sailor's warning, many people, instead of obediently hiding in the cabin, ran from the cabin to the deck, preparing to watch the storm coming up close.
The sailor reminded him several more times, then said nothing and left the ferrymen to stay on the deck.
The ship's protective cover has been opened. It is indestructible to wind and waves. It seems dangerous to stay on the deck, but it is actually very safe.
If the wind and waves destroy the protective shield, there is no difference between standing on the deck and staying in the cabin, because the moment the protective shield is broken, the ship will definitely be torn apart by the wind and waves, and everyone will be swallowed up by the wind and waves.
Squeak!
The ship began to squeeze the water downwards, sinking most of the hull below the sea surface to reduce the area where it collided with strong winds and waves.
"Oh, this stop-and-go is really too slow."
"If this continues, when will we be able to reach Gunan?"
On the deck, a man in white with a tall figure and handsome features looked at the dark clouds sweeping over the southeast sky and sighed helplessly.
There were many people on the deck, but no one dared to approach the man in white, because the man in white had a strong murderous aura and gave people a very dangerous feeling.
"Forget it, forget it."
"A poor family has a rich life, as the master said, not to mention that I am not poor at all and have plenty of Sheng Yuan Dan."
The man in white murmured in his heart, then nodded, as if he had made some decision, turned to look at the tall mast behind him, and shouted: "Boss Yu, tell me something."
At the top of the mast stood a dark-skinned, rugged man in his fifties. He looked down at the man in white and asked, "Master Xiong, what do you want me to do?"
"I don't want to wander around on the sea anymore. I am going to take your Yu family's space teleportation array to Gunan. Please help me, Boss Yu, to make arrangements." The man in white replied.
Hearing this, the rugged man smiled and said, "This is a simple matter, as long as you prepare the Sheng Yuan Dan."
The man in white nodded and said, "Don't worry, I won't sit here in vain."
The rugged man said: "Of course I believe in the young master's character, but I have to explain what needs to be said to the young master first to avoid misunderstandings later. From here to Gunan, if you take the space teleportation array for the whole journey, you still need to make thirty stops. Eight times, each time you need to pay the cost of five Saint Yuan Dan."
"Understood." The man in white nodded.
"And the space teleportation array cannot be activated at any time. Each time it is activated, ten people need to wait. If you are in a hurry and have money, you don't have to wait. You only need to pay the fees of the few people who are missing. "
"I can't afford it, sir." The man in white shook his head.
The rugged man smiled and said: "I just want to talk to you, so that you don't understand. Grandpa Hei is here, so we won't talk anymore."
Dark clouds were already pressing above my head.
There were already strong winds and waves on the sea.
Huge waves tens of feet high came crashing over. People stood on the deck. Even though they were protected by a strong protective shield, they still couldn't help but feel frightened. They felt that they would be crushed by the huge waves in the next moment.
"careful!"
"There's something approaching in the dark clouds!"
The man in white suddenly frowned and shouted.
The rugged man's face changed drastically and he shouted, "It's a giant beast from the deep sea!"
