Facts have proven that the products produced by the system must be of high quality.
With the dual assistance of Guigu Taoism and traditional Chinese medicine brewed from the Shennong Cauldron, Gong Shantie's body recovered very quickly.
The chronic disease in his lungs was gone, and he felt as if his body was several years younger. His physical strength, which had been overdrawn due to the continuous injuries, was gradually recovering.
During this period, the shipyard owner Zhang Liang led his shipwrights to work overtime to complete Lu Xiao's order.
Lu Xiao readily paid the balance to Zhang Liang, and relying on Gongshan Iron's connections, Lu Xiao began to recruit crew members and sailors in Daliang City who had experience in operating large ships at sea.
The four Yongzhen people finally returned after being away for half a month. At this time, Lu Xiao had basically made all the preparations needed to go to sea.
When he saw Yongzhen and others again, Lu Xiao was reviewing the situation of the Gongshan Railway.
Although there is still a long way to go before returning to its peak, the situation of public and mountain railways is indeed improving step by step, and it is expected that it will take at most two months to initially restore combat effectiveness.
"How's the situation? Have you caught up?"
"Um."
Yongzhen nodded happily: "At a critical moment, we finally stopped the activation of the All Souls Blood Array."
"Hmph~"
Tuoba Yuer proudly held her head high: "We have conveyed your words to Yang Shuo, and he said that he will return to Daxing City to ask Grand Master Yuwen Tuo for his opinion."
Yuwen Tuo is not a ruthless butcher. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, he is not willing to use such cruel methods as the Wanling Blood Bead to achieve his goal.
But as the grand master of the Sui Dynasty, Yuwen Tuo was not an indecisive person. Even if he still had hope in his heart, he definitely did not have enough time left for Lu Xiao.
"I think Yuwen Tuo will keep the tone of the original plan and send people out to search for the whereabouts of the Haotian Tower and the Demon Refining Pot on the premise that I can obtain the Donghuang Bell and Pangu Ax."
Lu Xiao turned to look at Chen Jingchou's waist: "The Demon Refining Pot is in Brother Chen's hands. In other words, Yuwen Tuo only needs to find the Haotian Tower to complete his mission."
Lu Xiao was unable to confirm where the Haotian Tower that was supposed to stay in the Mountain and Sea Realm went in the long period of time after Xuanyuan Sword Five. Perhaps Yuwen Tuo could find it with the huge intelligence network controlled by the Grand Master.
In addition to the bells, swords, axes, pots and towers needed to set up the Void Formation, the Qin, Cauldron and Mirror Stones needed for the Lost Formation also need to be searched for one by one.
The mirror is Yuwen Tuo himself, the stone is in front of Lu Xiao, and the tripod lies quietly in Lu Xiao's personal space.
"Fuxi Qin is buried in the Dunhuang Grottoes and is protected by the power of Thousand Buddhas. Yuwen Tuo should send someone to take it out first. Let's get the Kongtong Seal by the way when we go to sea."
The Kongtong Seal disappeared from the "land" of China many years ago and was controlled by an undersea race called the Di people.
An immortal from the East China Sea fairy world used ancient formations to activate the magical effect of Kongtong Seal, allowing the entire Di people to gain eternal youth and immortal lifespan.
Taking away the Kongtong Seal will inevitably cause the Di people to lose their youth, but in order to solve the huge disaster that is harming China, they don't have to worry about that much now.
…
Daxing City, Taishi Mansion.
Yuwen Tuo frowned and looked at the two people who were half-kneeling in front of him to apologize: "Old General Han Teng, please raise your head."
"yes."
Yang Shuo's chest was still wrapped with a bloody bandage, which was the wound that Tuoba Yu'er took the opportunity to chop before.
Han Teng only arrived at the scene to meet Yang Shuo after the war, and everything had been settled by then.
"I want to hear your judgment."
Yuwen Tuo was a little hesitant. He didn't know whether he should believe the warning given by the group of people who sabotaged the plan.
"Do you think those troublemakers with unknown origins are just talking nonsense or are they confident?"
Han Teng is over sixty years old and has very rich experience and experience, and Yuwen Tuo often relies on his wisdom.
Han Teng's eyes flickered with thought: "I dare not make rash judgments. I have just seen the troublemakers from a distance, but the elegant woman in the lead does not look like someone who makes random nonsense."
Tuoba Yu'er, Chen Jingchou and Yu Xiaoxue were temporarily ignored by Han Teng. Those three teenagers could tell at a glance that they were just juniors, but Yongzhen's calmness and sophistication left a deep impression on both Han Teng and Yang Shuo.
impression.
"Is this so..."
Yuwen Tuo tapped the armrest of the chair with his fingers and fell into deep thought: "Donghuang Bell and Pangu Ax, so far we have not been able to find any clues related to these two artifacts."
"The people who know the existence of these two artifacts are by no means ordinary people. They may have some understanding of my intention to start the Road to Babel to replace the Void Formation."
Gritting his teeth, Yuwen Tuo weighed for a long time before finally making up his mind: "Put off the sacrifice of the Ten Thousand Spirits Blood Beads, but we must still seize the time to build the Tower of Babel."
"Your Majesty has been in a bad mood recently. I can't leave for the time being, Hu Lu'an and Shangguan Zhenyuan."
"exist!"
After making the decision, Yuwen Tuo issued a new step of instructions vigorously and resolutely: "You will go to the Dunhuang Grottoes and the Nanling Ghost Cave respectively, and bring back the Fuxi Qin and Nuwa Stone for me."
"yes!"
"Han Teng, Yang Shuo."
"exist!"
Yuwen Tuo Wenyan said to the two of them: "You stay in Daxing City to recuperate for the time being. Later, I need you to go out to find the whereabouts of the Haotian Tower and the Demon Refining Pot."
The two of them clasped their fists at the same time and said, "Yes!"
After the four people left one after another, Yuwen Tuo stayed where he was and closed his eyes to rest.
'Could it be that there will be a turning point?'
'Unknown spoiler, I will only give you two months. If you don't get the exact information after two months...'
…
"set sail!"
After the Gongshan couple and Xiao Meng bid farewell, Lu Xiao and others finally set sail and sailed along the main stream of the Yellow River towards the sea after completing all preparations.
The crew members and sailors recruited by Lu Xiao are all people with rich experience at sea. The captain is an old friend of Gong Shantie's when he was young, named Hou Zhenying. It is said that he has more than 30 years of experience at sea, so he is one of his own.
The experienced captain suppressed the situation, and the other recruited crew members and sailors behaved more honestly, and the voyage down the river went very smoothly.
but……
"Woo!"
Lu Xiao looked at the pale Tuoba Yu'er speechlessly. She was half-kneeling on the side of the ship retching while Yongzhen and Xiaoxue were gently stroking her back to soothe her symptoms.
Ever since she got on the ship, this girl has lost her previous lively attitude, and now looks like a sickly beauty holding her heart in her arms.
To put it simply, it’s seasickness.
Tuoba Yu'er, who grew up in the north, had never had the experience of riding a boat. The modified dragon boat was very stable and was fine when sailing in the less bumpy river. However, when it entered the sea with more wind and waves, landlubber Yu'er was completely in trouble.
.
Chen Jingchou was the last royal bloodline of the Chen Kingdom in the Southern Dynasties. As a southerner, he had a lot of experience in shipwrecks. Xiaoxue also performed well because of her special physique. Only Yu'er was the only one who pulled her crotch.
Lu Xiao temporarily ignored Xiao Nizi who was lying on the side of the ship vomiting, and turned to communicate with the captain Hou Zhenying.
"Lao Hou, are you sure you can find the whereabouts of that giant whale?"
"Ha! Of course."
Hou Zhenying, like all those who make a living at sea, has a straightforward temper and speaks the truth.
"Brother Gongshan and I went out to sea many times when we were young, and we saw the big whale from a distance many times."
"But little boss, why are you looking for that big guy?"
Hou Zhenying asked in confusion: "The big whale has a very docile character and never attacks passing ships. You don't want to hunt it, do you?"
"I advise you to give up this idea. With its tonnage, our ship will never be able to carry it."
Lu Xiao shook his head in a funny way: "How is that possible? I won't hurt it, but some people can only find it through that giant whale."
'After all, those Di humans live in the belly of the giant whale.'
