After repairing at Shenchuan Port for several days, I replenished my physical strength, mental energy, fresh water and food.
The huge fleet sets sail again.
Many officers and nobles said goodbye to the Korean lady they had adopted and stood on the deck, looking somewhat reluctant to leave.
But Chen Xi was very happy.
Previously, just sailing along the coast gave him an initial appreciation of the charm of the ocean.
The rolling waves, the surging waves, the circling seabirds.
Everything is so charming.
"Your Excellency..." The leader of the guide sent by the King of Han Dynasty, who may be a relatively high-status Korean official, came to Chen Xi with a smile on his face and said flatteringly: "Why don't you go to the cabin to rest?
It will take at least two days to get to Whale River Sea!"
"Two days?" Chen Xi smiled and shook his head: "One day is enough!"
The speed of the battleship under his feet was unprecedented.
When sailing at full speed, it can even be twice as fast as a large ship!
Yi Di from South Korea can reach the so-called Whale River Sea in two days by paddling a small sampan. Now, riding such a powerful ship, Chen Yu feels that it won't take long to reach the so-called Whale River Sea.
.
However, the name of Jingchuanhai made Chen Yu more curious.
"Why did you name that sea area Whale River Sea? Is it because there are many whales there?"
Chen Yu is no stranger to whales.
Since last year, the Han family has been trying to hunt whales off the coast of Qilu, killing several whales, and then dragging them back to the port to be dismembered and processed.
Chen Xi heard that last year, the officers of the Protective Army and the Great Wall Garrison received some brand-new supplies, antifreeze cream made from whale oil.
The effect is very good!
In North Korea, South Korea and Zhenban, these antifreeze creams are in short supply and are even more popular than silk.
As for the nobles of Xianbei and Wuheng, they directly offered war horses in exchange for this antifreeze cream, which was particularly effective.
It's a pity that the number of whales off Naqilu is limited. There are probably only a few hundred whales swimming in the offshore area. Last year, the boat hunted only about 20 whales of suitable size. If they were too big.
The boat cannot be towed, and it would be a waste to kill them.
Even so, the benefits from whaling are still huge.
A whale weighing about a thousand stone can refine oil of about two hundred stone.
Even just these fats are enough to make people crazy for these giant beasts.
Chen Xi knew that for every stone of whale oil delivered by Lou Chuan Yamen, the emperor would allocate a reward of five thousand coins to Lou Chuan.
A whale costs at least 100,000 yuan.
Not to mention, the Mohist family and the Imperial Medical Office had as many skins, bones, and livers as there were of these giant beasts.
No worries about sales at all!
In other words, in Chen's eyes, every whale is a moving treasure.
As far as Chen Xi is concerned, let alone, these giant beasts are said to have the blood of the Dragon King and cannot be killed by ordinary people.
Chen Xi dared to kill such a valuable thing, even Tai Yi's heir!
What's more, Chen Xi knew that his brother-in-law, the emperor, once issued an edict to the Louchuan Yamen: Whale, Taiyi is a blessing to my people. Your Majesty and other generals, Sima, should hunt whales with all their strength, so as to penetrate into many places.
Killing is the best!
The emperor's brother-in-law, who was ordered by heaven, said that these giant beasts in the sea were gifts from Taiyi to the Xia, and they were blessings to reward the people of the Xia.
It is better to go deeper and kill more. The more you kill, the happier the gods will be.
If there are enough whales to hunt in this whale river sea.
Chen Xi felt that this might be a huge amount of wealth!
When the Korean official saw Chen Xi asking questions, his whole face couldn't help but tremble with joy.
The Chinese nobleman in front of me has an unusual background.
The brother-in-law of the current Chinese emperor, a Chinese prince who was born into a noble family, in terms of status, compared with his own king, is only one level higher.
But considering that the other party is the brother-in-law of the Emperor of China, in fact, even his own king has to kneel down and lick him.
Such a noble man, a god-like Chinese figure, actually talked to me?
The man's face turned red with excitement.
"Reporting to your noble lord, this is indeed the case..." The man looked into the distance and said: "In this Whale River Sea, the number of whales is as numerous as the stars in the sky, and some even have bodies like islands..."
"A body like an island?" Chen Hao shook his head in disbelief: "Isn't that Kunpeng?"
There is a fish in the North Ming Dynasty, and its name is Kun...
Thanks to the Empress Dowager Donggong and Marquis Zhang Wu, Chen Xi was able to recite Zhuangzi's article from ear to ear.
But how could a divine beast like Kunpeng appear in front of mortals so easily?
Chen Xi was very skeptical.
…………………………
However, Chen Xi soon discovered that he was wrong.
Early the next morning, Chen Xi stood on the deck and stared dumbfounded at the giant beast emerging from the sea in the distance.
This is a super beast that is bigger than people imagine.
Its size is as big as the fleet's lucky ship!
No!
Its body is probably much bigger than Fu Chuan!
Its blue-gray back is faintly visible under the water.
Huge water columns were ejected from the bottom of the sea and surged into the sky.
The officers and soldiers on the Han fleet were all frightened by this terrifying huge sea beast.
"Is this the dragon king's mount?" someone murmured, wanting to worship this giant beast.
"It should be Jiro Guanguchi's mount!" Some people also expressed different opinions and were busy preparing incense to burn incense for this mythical beast.
However, they soon discovered that they were wrong.
Because this giant beast is not alone.
Under the sea in the distance, several huge shadows soon appeared.
There are even monsters far larger than this giant beast appearing from the bottom of the sea, spouting huge water columns.
Obviously, this is a family of giant beasts, migrating.
Because there are two relatively small monsters in the group, following the mother beast closely.
But even the size of these small sea beasts was several times larger than any land giants that the Han soldiers on the ship had seen in the past.
"Quiet!" Chen Xi licked his lips, then stood in the middle of the deck, drew out his sword, shouted, and scolded: "How can the army be so panicked?"
"These giant beasts, in my opinion, are whales, not the Dragon King's mount, Erlang's mount..." He stroked his sword and said: "Qiefu, even if it is the Dragon King, Erlang's mount,
You will never dare to invade us!"
Chen Xi raised his sword and said loudly: "This is a sword given by the Holy Emperor, and Taiyi has blessed it. Even if the Dragon King is in front of me, I have to give you some face!"
After hearing what Chen Xi said, the soldiers on the ship calmed down under the scoldings of the officers and went about their jobs one after another.
After all, the sword given by the emperor does, in theory, have the power to kill gods who disobey the king.
When Dayu was controlling the floods, were there not many Mao gods and even Zhengshen who were killed by Dayu?
This is also China’s traditional thinking.
Gods are very strong and powerful.
But how can magical power be worth the number of days?
I have been punished by God and have nothing to pray for!
The holy king who was ordered by heaven and carried the destiny of heaven was even the union of the emperor of heaven and the emperor of man in ancient mythology.
Regardless of religion, demons and ghosts must kneel down in front of the secular king and shout: Long live your Majesty. (~^~)
ps: Thank you everyone, I’m so happy~ I’ll catch up with those in front of me soon~
Let's work hard together and blow up their anus!
Note: The Whale River Sea is today’s Sea of Japan.
The whale depicted in this chapter is a blue whale. For mobile phone users, please visit http://m.piaotian.net
