"Giggle, thank you so much for this brother. The little girl is asking for it." As soon as he finished speaking, "Wang Luyu" obediently joined his team.
Half an hour later, the small caravan that "Wang Luyu" was in also entered a large sea ship along with a dozen other "mortal caravans" of similar size. The boat is more than 300 feet long, nearly 100 feet wide, and 10 feet high. It is divided into five levels, two under the water and three above the water.
This ship is mainly made of a variety of huge hardwoods, but the thickness of the ship's planks varies. Among them, the bottom planks are up to two feet thick, and the ship's sides, plywood and gun mounts are all about a foot thick. Thin, the purpose is to ensure that the center of gravity of the entire seagoing ship is not easily capsized underwater.
The sea is very windy and has many reefs, and various shipwrecks abound. It would be tragic if a typhoon, hurricane or other bad weather caused the ship to be destroyed and people died while sailing on the sea. Even those who are "foundation-building cultivators" may not be able to do so. You can escape completely, unless you specialize in water attribute skills.
Of course, the "Golden Dan Master" will not worry about natural disasters such as typhoons, hurricanes, earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, etc., because he has a "golden elixir vision" that can mobilize the "vital energy of heaven and earth" to protect the body and temporarily form various sizes. A specific "enchantment" is used to block various invasions, but it disdains the company of mortals!
However, the situation of "Wang Luyu", the "Master of Pill Formation" is different, because what she is facing now is not how to deal with the bad weather, but how to avoid that damn "Old Monster Nascent Soul" in case she is stalked by him. If you beat the ground and capture the scene, the consequences will be serious, life will definitely be worse than death!
Because of this, these eight women and one man had privately discussed that if one day they could advance to the "Nascent Soul" as soon as possible, they must go to the "Duoyan Sect" to "visit" the damn "old monster", even if they couldn't defeat it. I have to fight him, otherwise it will use up his life span and make him regret doing such a stupid thing!
These people thought so and decided to do this in the future, because after the eight women and one man experienced the power of this fused body, they felt that according to the current speed of cultivation, it would probably take less than five years to advance to the "Core Formation" "Later Stage", you may be able to practice to the "Great Perfection of the Pill Formation Stage" in ten years. By chance, it may not be impossible to break the pill and become a baby within a hundred years! In this way, the nine people will become legends in the world of cultivation!
At this time, "Wang Luyu" had nothing to do and was wandering around on this large ship. He went in and out of every mezzanine without any scruples to check out all kinds of strange things. In particular, he saw that there were two rooms the size of the rooms on the front and rear of the bottom floor. After seeing the "fire wheel mechanism" and multiple "coal piles", I couldn't help but be very curious.
The use of "fire wheel mechanisms" to power large boats and carts has been popular as early as the "Da Ming Immortal Dynasty" in ancient times, and these "fire wheel mechanisms" are blessed with various "talisman", so The manufacture of such large boats and carts is inseparable from the participation of "immortal cultivators" until now.
However, since the collapse of the "Great Ming Immortal Dynasty", various "cultivation forces" and "superpower forces" have emerged one after another. The "immortal cultivation sects" and "immortal cultivation families" in the Eastern world and the "religious forces" and "magic forces" in the Western world have "School", "City-State Council", "Warcraft Alliance", etc. still have a monopoly on this business.
Therefore, apart from the fact that there is no "fire wheel mechanism" means of transportation in the sky, various means of transportation powered by "fire wheel mechanisms" can be seen everywhere, whether on land or sea, or even in inland rivers, but most of them serve " Mortals" and "Qi Refining Stage Monks", "Foundation Establishment" and above disdain this.
As for the second floor of the cabin, it is mostly used to temporarily house pigs, sheep, cats, dogs, cattle, horses, donkeys, mules, camels and other livestock and their food. As for elephants, lions, jackals, wolves, tigers, leopards, Bears, bears and other large wild animals are not allowed to ride in the same boat as ordinary mortals.
The third layer of the ship is the plywood layer. Fourteen large-caliber ultra-long-range "rifled guns" are installed on the sides of the ship on both sides. The same "rifled guns" and "rifled guns" are installed on the bow and stern respectively. Two "Luban Guns". As for the three hundred sailors, they were all equipped with "rifled guns."
Although these "sailors" are all mortal warriors, they have obviously practiced more than one powerful martial arts and have profound fighting skills. Moreover, in addition to being responsible for the security on sea ships, they are also responsible for rescuing passengers and defending against external threats. Invasion and other responsibilities, the pay is very high!
Under normal circumstances, the income of a "qualified sailor" is far higher than the income of "ordinary escorts" in land "escort agencies", and is not even more than the income of "top escorts", with a monthly salary of as little as ten Two taels of silver, or as many as dozens of taels of silver, is more than enough for one person to feed a whole family!
However, it is not easy to become a "sailor". In addition to having excellent water skills, you also need to have unique skills, especially being familiar with the operation of various "firearms". Therefore, as early as the "Daming Immortal Dynasty" era in ancient times, "sailors" were generally retired soldiers from the "Imperial Navy".
There are also a small number of "sailors" who are privately trained "soldiers" or "guards" by various forces. However, since the collapse of the "Great Ming Immortal Dynasty", "Sailors" have been recommended by "industry associations" and "cultivation families" in addition to the "personal bodyguards" specially cultivated by various forces.
The so-called "industry associations" are various "chambers of commerce" formed by various "business organizations" in "coastal areas", and all parties participating in the meeting signed various "equality and mutually beneficial" contracts on the basis of friendly consultations. Including personnel exchanges and property transfers, and even the training of "seamen".
"Seafarers" from "immortal cultivating families" are usually not included in this list. However, some "casual cultivators" with poor "spiritual qualifications" will be invited to join.
In addition, some side branches and concubine children of "immortal cultivating families", especially young mortals with poor "spiritual qualifications" or even no "spiritual roots", will be arranged by the family to run their own "family industries", including mining. , collection of spiritual materials, agency in various places, ocean transportation, etc.
However, if there are "seafarers" who continue to serve due to old age and frailty, they can leave the team on their own after completing their service period, or they can apply to the "owners" of their respective fleets to stay as "boiler workers" and "epidemic preventers" , specifically responsible for the operation of the "steam engine" and providing medical treatment to people on board.
Of course, some "older sailors" who know carpentry, metalworking, painting, bricklaying and even "talisman" can continue to stay on the ship and be responsible for the safety and regular maintenance of the hull, and still enjoy preferential treatment, but these people They generally come from "immortal cultivating families" with a background.
As for the fourth and fifth floors of the ship, they are dedicated to guest rooms, and there are special "restrictions" on the doors and windows.
This kind of "restriction" is actually a kind of "talisman blessing", which prevents doors and windows from being damaged in bad weather, and people from being blown away by hurricanes.
Of course, these "talismanic prohibitions" are also used to ward off evil spirits and eliminate disasters, because there are many strange and unpredictable phenomena on the sea caused by the sea demon, such as fog, poisonous miasma invasion, vortex swallowing, flying fish breaking windows, "seaweed" When disasters such as "vines" occur, these "restrictions" can automatically resist.
But even so, no matter ordinary mortals or "immortal cultivating families", as long as they live in coastal areas, they will not care too much about these potential threats and will still indulge in various commercial activities. After all, "people die for money and birds die for food", as long as profits are It's high enough, no matter how big the risk is, it's worth taking!
What they enjoy the most is doing business with the various forces on the "Three Immortals Island". Of course, fleets from various forces in the Haixi Continent will also maintain trade relations with various forces in the "Eastern Overseas Cultivation World", but due to the occasional chaos caused by monsters in the sea, the risks are too great and restricted.
In fact, as early as in ancient times, a protracted war broke out between the "Canglang Sect", the largest "cultivation sect" that once dominated the "Liaodong region", and the "overseas cultivation world". The reason was that "human beings" were too concerned about the expansion of sea areas. It is too obvious that the use of force to plunder cultivation resources in the sea has led to irreconcilable conflicts.
Among the parties involved are the "cultivation sects" in other coastal areas of the Haixi continent and the "land monster alliance" in the Mobei area. As a result, the "Sea Demon Clan" and the "Land Demon Clan" united to defeat the cultivation forces of the "Liaodong Region" and the "Central Plains Region" and destroyed the "Canglang Sect."
However, later, due to the timely participation of large-scale human cultivation forces from the "Lingnan Region" and the "Mobei Region", the "Land Monster Clan" and "Sea Monster Clan" were forced to retreat. However, the war ruins of "Canglangmen" were "jointly sealed" by all parties, and the ownership of "Three Immortals Island" was decided at the same time.
The so-called "Sanxian Island" refers to the three islands of "Penglai", "Fangzhang" and "Yingzhou". They are located in the sea to the west of the "Fusang Islands", to the south of the "Liaodong Peninsula" and to the east of the "Central Plains Region". It is closely connected with the "Haixi Continent Cultivation World" and is considered to be the territory of the "human race", but it is coveted by the "sea race".
After the "Sea Monster Alliance" and the "Land Monster Alliance" joined forces to destroy the "Canglang Gate", they originally wanted to continue southward to occupy the "Three Immortals Island" with the "remaining power of the great victory", but they were defeated by the "Central Plains Region" and the "Lingnan Region" " and various sects in the "Mobei Region" jointly sent troops to defeat them, and their ownership could only be determined through a "battle".
That is to say, every three hundred years, a so-called "Cultivation World Competition" will be held on the "Three Immortals Island", which is divided into three levels of "life and death": "Qi Refining", "Foundation Building" and "True Pill". Arena match". If which side has the last laugh among the three levels, which side will a certain fairy island temporarily belong to?
The two sides in the competition are mainly "human race" and "demon race", and the contestants are also the best among the various forces. However, judging from the unspoken rules formed after tens of thousands of years of fighting, neither side could completely suppress their opponent. As a result, both sides secretly looked for "foreign aid" to join the fight.

Good fortune, wealth and longevity are coming, and the sun and moon invite each other to shine brightly.
In the prosperous age of peace and prosperity, where are the floating pings?
Falling in love messes with the mind, talking about money hurts feelings.
If you are confused about this, you would rather practice Buddhism!

They join the "Human" camp in the "Eastern Cultivation World", while the "Dark Angels", "Vampires", "Devils", "Orcs", etc. in the "Western Supernatural World" join the Demon Clan camp.
As a result, there will be a huge business opportunity on the "Three Immortals Island" - "Dalei"! As a result, "gamblers" from all forces came one after another, and many "commercial organizations" also came to "Three Immortals Island" to get a share of the pie, such as selling various spiritual materials, elixirs, magic weapons, magic weapons, and even opening inns. .
However, some daring "mortal traders" also came here after hearing the news, and even took their families with them and did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to sneak across. After all, this is a place where every inch of land is precious. As long as they can get along with a low-ranking "immortal master" here, If the relationship is strong, the future of the family will be full of brightness and expectations!
