"This tea is reddish-brown when brewed, and it really matches the name Immortal Marrow."
Yang Ji thought to himself. He himself is not very afraid of going crazy. In fact, he will not go crazy at all.
However, Yang Ji knew very well how precious this kind of thing that could prevent people from going crazy was for a wealthy family.
When he first refined a few "purifying demon-suppressing pills", the entire Taiyuan Province was almost boiling. You can imagine how precious this pot of tea is, Mr. Ouyang.
"If the second master has this kind of thing, why didn't he give it to the third master in the first place?"
Yang Ji frowned and suddenly thought of the third young master of the Ouyang family. The second master Ouyang had such a treasure, so logically it was not his turn to treat the third young master.
"How can it be so easy!"
Mr. Ouyang smiled bitterly, as if he had known Yang Ji had asked this question, and lowered his head:
"This Immortal Marrow is not as powerful as you think. You have to drink it all the time to have any effect. If you have already gone crazy, it is of no use. Besides,... Zifu has always been a little resistant to me."
Mr. Ouyang said nothing more until he was halfway through his words.
"I see."
Yang Ji suddenly understood. If this thing needs to be drank all the time, it is really not as powerful as imagined. And it is no wonder that Mr. Ouyang only takes seven or eight tablets at a time.
Only small water can flow long, and this is not just as simple as being stingy or stingy.
Having said that, Yang Ji's heart moved and he remembered the rumors told by the ghost alchemist. If the third son Ouyang Zifu is really the second master Ouyang and the third lady..., then it is no wonder.
Yang Ji wisely did not pursue this matter further.
Picking up the cup of tea, Yang Ji took another sip and understood the function of this "immortal marrow". When he drank it this time, the taste was different again.
"By the way, the second master just mentioned the overseas fairy island. I wonder where that place is? Why has this junior never heard of it?"
While drinking tea, Yang Ji asked what he was most concerned about.
There is no one in the entire ocean world who knows more than the middle-aged man in front of me. It is really a rare opportunity to ask him alone like this.
"Ha! There are many fairy islands overseas, right? Mr. Yang is also interested in them?"
Mr. Ouyang quickly calmed down his emotions and took the opportunity to ask about Yang Ji.
"Indeed."
Yang Ji pretended to ask for advice and said with a serious face, "It's just limited to my strength. I haven't gone there yet. The second master knows the overseas world well, what can you teach me?"
"Haha, then you really found the right person."
Mr. Ouyang gently stroked his beard and laughed:
"In terms of understanding of the overseas world, there are not many people who can surpass me. Young people want to go out and have a try. This is a good thing. However, the overseas world is different from the land. If you want to go there, you must first have a boat."
Mr. Ouyang's eyes are shining and he is quite confident. This is the look of a person when talking about what he is best at.
Yang Ji silently remembered the "Deep Sea Dragon Whale" that the sea clan named "Shazhi" sold to him. He didn't need the ship because he had a more powerful "Deep Sea Dragon Whale".
If you want to go overseas in the future, this will be your best tool.
"Haha, it doesn't matter if you don't."
Mr. Ouyang smiled, thinking that Yang Ji felt that he did not have a ship and it was inconvenient to go to sea:
"As long as Mr. Yang needs to go to sea in the future, just say hello. Our Ouyang Family's big ship can take Mr. Yang out to sea for free at any time."
"Thank you, senior."
Yang Ji was overjoyed. This was an unexpected gain. Yang Ji heard from the Ghost Alchemist that those overseas ships involved family secrets of the Ouyang family and generally would not allow outsiders to board them.
Mr. Ouyang is actually willing to open up to himself, which is really an unexpected gain.
Although I have the "Deep Sea Dragon Whale", a powerful sea-diving weapon, the people of the Ouyang family are more experienced. If you go to sea for the first time, it will be much better if you have these people to guide you than if you go alone.
"It's just a trivial matter to take a ride to the sea. Mr. Yang has helped our Ouyang family so much. Such a trivial matter is not worth mentioning. The sea is more dangerous than on land. How to be safe at sea is what we should really pay attention to. I hope Mr. Yang will be true when the time comes.
It’s ready.”
Mr. Ouyang was having a tea ceremony.
"Please ask the second master to teach me."
Yang Ji beat the snake and followed the stick, knowing that Mr. Ouyang was determined to teach him. This kind of person has been operating at sea for decades and knows everything about the sea.
The details are not comparable to ordinary people. It is not easy to ask for advice from such a person.
"Haha, there are many dangers in the ocean, such as thunderstorms, huge waves, hurricanes, elusive sea beasts, some unreasonable sea creatures, and reefs on the seabed... you need to understand all of these. Many times, you are not unlucky.
It doesn’t happen to one or two of these things, but all of them come together.”
"The big ships we build can withstand strong winds and thunderstorms, but they are not indestructible. If they encounter those difficult reefs, they can be destroyed and people will die. In the ocean, big ships are the islands where we humans live.
, without this 'island', once you fall into the sea, no matter how capable you are, you may die in the end."
"Of course, there is another point, getting lost!"
Mr. Ouyang said.
"get lost?"
Yang Ji raised his eyebrows and said in surprise.
"Well, lost! Blunt knives are the deadliest."
The second master Ouyang said lightly, he didn't talk much. But just a little bit opened Yang Ji's eyes. The second master Ouyang saw the sea from the perspective of human beings, which is different from seeing it from the perspective of the sea people.
The sea is completely different:
"There are no coordinates in the sea. Dark clouds, ocean currents, whirlpools, exhaustion... all of these can make you lose your way. On land, you may head in one direction and find a city or home in half a day at most. But in the sea
For ten days and a half, or even longer, you won't be able to see land, islands, or even rocks."
"There is no place for you to meditate, rest, and recover your strength. There will even be sea monsters to attack you. You will be tired and hungry, and there will be endless battles waiting for you. A strong human being without food and water,
How long can I last without food, drink, and rest? Let me tell you, it won’t be more than ten days!”
"The sea can continuously weaken any human warrior until he finally turns into an ordinary person. Just like an ant, drowned in the sea. In the ocean, human beings are more vulnerable than anywhere else."
Mr. Ouyang Er said, this is a talk from experience. It may seem superficial, but it is the wisdom of survival in the sea. No matter how strong a warrior is, if he is not prepared to rush in rashly, he will die in the end.
If he didn't feel that Yang Ji was close to him, Mr. Ouyang would never have said this to him.
"Besides, don't be pulled into the water! It's not a place for us humans to win!"
After Mr. Ouyang said this, he took a sip of the immortal marrow and returned to his seat.
There was a lot of noise outside, and Yang Ji lowered his head, thoughtfully. What Mr. Ouyang said was completely different from what Beatrice, a high-ranking marine noble, said.
Just like the front and back of a leaf, when the two are combined together, they become a complete leaf.
"Thank you, senior, for your advice."
After just a moment, Yang Ji raised his head and said thank you.
"hehe!"
Perhaps because he heard Yang Ji's sincerity, Mr. Ouyang also laughed and became more interested in the conversation:
"...Many people think that I am the person who knows the most about the ocean and the sea people. In fact, it is far from the case. There are many strong humans in the ocean. They entered the ocean much earlier than me. In
They have lived there far longer than I have. Some people even entered the ocean in the previous dynasty, or even earlier. These are the people who know the most about the ocean world."
"Yang Ji must remember to go to sea in the future. Thunderstorms, huge waves, strong winds, sea beasts... are indeed dangerous on the ocean, but the real danger is these people who have unknown origins and do not know their emotions. Many of them have already forgotten themselves.
They have little origins and have little contact with the mainland. And some of them have become very surly because of the isolation. Once they encounter them, they may kill them immediately without saying a word. When I was young, I almost died in
In the hands of these people."
"ah!!"
Yang Ji was startled and looked at Mr. Ouyang in surprise. Mr. Ouyang once traveled at sea when he was young, and relying on his experience at sea, he emerged in the Ouyang family. He also led the Ouyang family to a new stage.
He reached a higher level and became the most powerful person on the surface of the deep sea.
But Mr. Ouyang actually said that he almost died at sea when he was young, at the hands of those strong humans. Yang Ji never expected this.
Even the ghost alchemist who has been in Taiyuanzhou Mansion for many years has never heard of these things. It is obviously an extremely secret matter. The second master Ouyang is actually willing to mention it to Yang Ji, obviously he has great trust in him.
"Haha, no need to make a fuss. It's over. If you want to be strong, you can't take some risks."
Mr. Ouyang seemed to know what Yang Ji was thinking, and chuckled:
"Although the sea is a vast ocean, it is not entirely water. There are also some scattered rocks and islands, large and small, thousands of them. All the strong human beings are distributed on those large and small reefs and islands
Above. I got my fairy marrow from one of the islands."
"If you want to take root on the sea, you must establish good relations with these maritime forces. Only with a place to stay can everything be stable and easy to do business. However, you must be careful not to approach them rashly."
Speaking of what happened later, Mr. Ouyang looked solemn. (~^~)
