The next morning, Yue Lan was sweeping the courtyard when she heard the wooden door move. She turned around and saw Zheng Haizhu coming out. She asked with a smile: "Miss, you got up so early?"
Zheng Haizhu smiled: "It's so early in Daishan. Yuelan, is there any hot porridge?"
"Why don't you have it? Miss, wash up first, and I'll pick it up right away."
Not long after, Yue Lan came back with a food plate and saw that Zheng Haizhu had put on her coat and cloth shirt and trousers from top to bottom, which were obviously from her own baggage.
Yue Lan is a smart person and understands that as long as Miss Zheng lives on the island, she is half the master.
She would not ask the lady why she did not wear the beautiful clothes prepared by Master Yan. She would only focus on the work at hand and arrange the breakfast diligently and quickly.
Zheng Haizhu took a look at the variety of food and found that it was just what he wanted.
The oily steamed glutinous rice cake is wrapped with peanut particles, and the white fish meat, light yellow shell meat and garnet shrimp meat are cooked with the japonica rice to form a thick seafood porridge.
The meat protein and carbohydrates are full, which can provide her with plenty of calories for the actions she will take in a while.
She had already started thinking about this action after hearing the words "Daishan Island" on the bird boat.
Yesterday, she was convinced that the island she was on was the Daishan Island in later generations, so she decided to carry out her own expedition.
While Zheng Haizhu devoured his food, he kept his ears open to listen to what was going on in the courtyard next door.
Finally, she heard the sound of "whoosh, whoosh".
That's when Yan Siqi got up and practiced sword dancing.
Zheng Haizhu pushed the empty bowl and said to Yue Lan: "I've finished eating, and I'll go to Xu Futing again."
Yuelan was surprised: "Ah? Now? What is Miss going to do..."
"The scenery there is very beautiful. I want to see it more clearly today. Thanks to Brother Yan, the various embroidery threads here are so complete. I just used the silk thread to write down the colors and go back to Jiangnan to embroider."
"Going right now?"
"Yeah, you see, the dawn is already getting darker. I'll hurry up and get there. It's just when the sun jumps out of the sea. The colors of the clouds are the brightest and the ripples on the water are the most beautiful."
Zheng Haizhu took out the cashmere cloak Yan Siqi gave her yesterday and a basket filled with brocade silk threads.
Yuelan pushed her up and said, "I'll go with the lady."
Zheng Haizhu's tone was gentle, but she clearly refused: "We use embroidery thread to arrange colors, just like when a painter paints a picture with his brush, he doesn't like other people around to look at him. Don't worry, Brother Yan gave you guidance yesterday. The pavilion is nearby.
It's great, the road is easy to walk. You can have breakfast with peace of mind. The sun is high and the scenery is faded, so I will come back. Hush, don't disturb Brother Yan's practice."
When Yue Lan heard what Miss Zheng said, she couldn't insist on it, so she had to send Zheng Haizhu out of the yard first, preparing to report to Yan Siqi after she finished her morning practice.
…
Xu Futing is located in the northeast of Daishan Island.
The seabed in the southeast is very high, but the terrain near the island is flat with no rugged rocks. The water is diverted by the salt embankment and becomes a natural salt drying field.
Although the cliffs on the south and west sides are steep, they each face the continuous small islands on the sea not far away, forming a harbor, with their backs to the East China Sea and the farther Pacific Ocean. They are well sheltered from the wind and the water is deep, making them suitable for use as fortune ships and comparison ships.
The big bird boat docked. The bird boat Mao Wenlong and Zheng Haizhu took when they arrived, and Yan Siqi's other three boats, anchored in the western harbor.
Only the northeastern part of the island faces the boundless sea water with a wide view. The scenery is particularly majestic at sunrise and sunset.
At this moment, the sky is bright, and the sunlight paints the reefs and pavilions with a golden outline, and also makes the air of late summer morning dissipate a lot of coolness.
Outside Xu Fu Pavilion, the predecessors used stone strips of different sizes to pave the steps downward. However, when they were paved near the sea, the path was cut off, leaving only rolling rocks with a small drop.
Yesterday, Zheng Haizhong came to Xu Futing, accompanied by Yan Si, and had already roughly figured out the terrain in the name of Range Rover.
So she walked down the steps in the rays of the sun, took off her cashmere cloak, and placed her needlework basket on the rocks.
At this time, the tide had not yet risen, and fortunately the morning breeze was not strong, blowing only slowly. The water surface was still calm, and the sea water connected to the rocks only rolled up the waves and whispered softly.
But this is the deep sea after all, and it is dark and unpredictable.
It's like those cold and forbidding eyes, even if the surface is temporarily illuminated by a few flickering warmth from the rising sun, there is still an elusive fear inside.
Zheng Haizhu was a very good swimmer in her previous life, otherwise she would not have accidentally learned about the legend of Daishan Island.
In this life, the opportunity for her to test that she still had excellent water skills was not in Zhangzhou on the coast of Fujian, but at the Dragon Boat Festival in Songjiang.
At that time, a few big-bodied and round-waisted ladies came out of nowhere, and they suddenly became obsessed with seeing the muscular men on the dragon boat. They crowded around and pushed Han Ximeng, who was eating stinky tofu skewers with his sleeves covered, off the bridge. Zheng
Without thinking, Haizhu immediately jumped into the river, seemingly driven by instinct, and used a scientific approach to save Han Ximeng's life from the Dragon King.
But how can the rivers used for boating in Jiangnan water towns compare with the sea?
Zheng Haizhu jumped across several rocks and tried his best to use the light to see clearly what was going on underwater.
There seemed to be no dark shadow of the reef.
Get off!
I even killed people a few days ago, and I am afraid of birds when the water is cold.
There are still decades to survive in troubled times, so take a sea bath to sharpen your courage first.
Thinking of this, Zheng Haizhu gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, stepped on a rock that was only three or four feet high from the sea, slid down, and slid into the sea water.
Seafood is really cold.
When treading water, your feet feel like they are touching the ice.
Fortunately, it was the season now, the weather had just come out, and the hot bowl of seafood porridge in the morning had not been long in my stomach. I was still wrapped in a velvet cloak to keep warm during the journey.
But it still needs to be resolved quickly.
Zheng Haizhu quickly swam out two or three feet, then turned around and looked back.
Now, she is facing Xu Futing. On her right is the sunken cliff due north of Xiangdao. On her left is a stone cliff not far away, but it is not high. It looks like a broad palm, slightly curled, in the backlight.
It seems a bit eerie.
It should be right here, that's right.
Four to five hundred years is just a fleeting time for nature, and it is far from enough to cause profound changes.
This corner of Daishan Island is almost the same as what Zheng Haizhu saw in later generations.
For the project in her previous life, she followed her teacher on the set and often had to revise the script on the spot.
There is a scene, and it's a bloody plot where the male protagonist helps the female protagonist to swim in the water to save her life. The male and female protagonists dress beautifully and go into the water for their own purposes.
Who would have thought that the popular heroine with an average salary of 2.5 million a day would sleep in until lunch boxes were about to be distributed, so she arrived late. By the time she put on her costume and put on makeup, the crew and equipment were all gone.
When she was in bed, she said that her aunt was here and she couldn't go into the water.
The director was about to vomit blood in anger when he turned around and saw Zheng Haizhu eating egg pancakes under the tree. He pointed with his hand and said, "Girl, you, yes, I'm talking about you, do you want to make some extra money?"
In this way, that day, Zheng Haizhu acted in the sea for more than half an hour, and also discovered something strange.
