Day six.
…
After a day of hard work, Qianchen finally made the resin glue and hurriedly reassembled the boat. It took him half a day to do it.
There should be no problem this time, little brother.
Qianchen looked at the resin glue that was thick enough and nodded with satisfaction.
It was left to dry overnight and early the next morning, which was the seventh day.
Qianchen checked the boat that came to the shore with great expectations.
Check here, look there, it seems pretty good.
Then try it in the water.
Practice is the only criterion for testing truth.
As the saying goes, it's the mule or the horse that comes out to run around.
It took a lot of effort for Qianchen to drag the heavy boat into the water.
When I first entered the water, it looked pretty good. It was floating in the shallow water. Qianchen pushed the boat and tried to stand on it. Suddenly, the boat drafted and sank a lot.
Fortunately, there was finally no leakage, and the boat floated steadily on the sea. The next step was to balance, test paddling and other practical operations.
After a lot of work, the situation turned out to be much better than expected.
Qianchen felt that if he tried a few more times, he might be able to go to sea tomorrow.
Until dark, Qianchen kept adjusting the boat, adding a wooden board here, polishing that place, and finally completed it by late night.
Qianchen was very tired and fell asleep.
Day eight.
The weather is sunny and the sea breeze is not strong. Today, Qianchen is ready to officially go to sea.
With the thought of doing it sooner rather than later, after putting everything in order, Qianchen looked back at the masterpiece cabin on the island and the scenery in the distance, then turned and left immediately.
He didn't look back because he really didn't want to stay here any longer.
…
The boat sailed into the vast sea. Qianchen first walked around the island, staying at the edge of the island along the way.
If something unexpected happens, you can still return to the island.
Fortunately nothing happened.
The sun is shining on the sea and the temperature is rising. The boat goes along the river, which saves effort.
This island is quite big, and it took most of a day to complete half of the journey. This was Qianchen's estimation.
When he arrived at another beach on the island, he was ready to take a break and kept swaying on the sea. He really didn't feel very safe.
Qianchen got off the ship and counted the time as he walked. If he didn't count the date of his coma, he had already left Kyoto for more than half a month.
In ten days at most, the decisive battle in Kyoto will begin.
When he encountered this kind of thing, he was helpless and had no choice.
There is no need to be hasty.
When we arrive at a new beach, we start over again, and time seems to have returned to its starting point.
Everything went according to plan. Qianchen checked the surrounding environment and made sure it was safe before staying here.
The next plan is to explore the island thoroughly first, even if it cannot reach the ideal state, at least to understand the general situation.
ninth day.
Qianchen decided to go deep into the virgin forest. He didn't have much food. If he couldn't speed up his progress, it would be really difficult to survive alone on the sea, let alone return to Kyoto.
He was very fast and ran all the way.
Qianchen has a plan to cross the island in one day and reach the other side. If he goes in the right direction, he can do it.
He kept staring at the compass, which was his greatest support.
The reason why I can tell that I have circled about half a circle around the island at sea is also based on the compass.
Gradually entering the depths of the primeval forest, the woods became more and more dense, and Qianchen had to slow down his pace. He really couldn't do this.
He almost fell off the cliff just now. There were bushes all around him. If he were not careful, he would step into an empty space.
Qianchen looked up and felt that the temperature had reached its peak. It was estimated that it was noon now.
Ahead is a lake, the water is very clear and almost bottomed out. Qianchen does not dare to be careless at all. The safer the place, the more dangerous it is.
Especially within the virgin forest.
He came to the water's edge and paid attention to the surrounding situation. After checking that there was no problem with the lake water, he washed his arms and face to cool down.
Afterwards, rest in place for a while.
It seems that there is no danger here.
When the scorching sun sets a little, Qianchen sets out again. Today he must cross the island.
Keep moving forward, Qianchen only wants to move forward.
It was about the afternoon, when the high temperature was about to drop.
Pushing aside the branches and crossing the bushes as tall as a person in front of you, your eyes suddenly opened up and the scene changed drastically.
A city appeared, and Qianchen was shocked. Why did a city appear here?
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.
He approached carefully, as this was the only way to get to the beach on the other side.
Whether he chooses to go around or return the same way, this is not Qianchen's style.
He felt that all this must be understood. Why is there actually a city here?
Who built it? Where is this place?
These questions trouble Qianchen, and there is no doubt that this city may have the answers he wants.
So, Qianchen passed.
There is a man-made path here, and it seems that someone often walks here.
Approaching the city, my spiritual vision scanned, and there was no one inside these buildings. What was going on?
Weird, eccentric.
Qianchen entered the city carefully. There was no one on the streets. Judging from the condition of the city, it must be inhabited.
Did everyone go elsewhere?
He continued to move forward, preparing to go to the center of the city to have a look.
"Are you Qianchen?"
Suddenly, without warning, a little girl's voice came from behind Qianchen.
Qianchen was shocked. He didn't notice anyone approaching. What was going on? What kind of city was this? What surprised him even more was that the other party actually knew his name.
Qianchen was surprised: "Who are you?"
"Are you Qianchen?" the little girl asked again.
Qianchen: "How do you know?"
"That's right, my name is Zhi Wu, and my Lord Wan Deng is waiting for you." The girl named Zhi Wu said to herself, and left without caring about Qian Chen's attitude.
Qianchen asked: "What is going on?"
Zhiwu said without looking back: "When you meet Master Wan Deng, everything will be revealed."
Not long after, the two of them arrived in front of a torii building, where a figure was waiting.
The man saw Zhi Wu and Qian Chen coming over and said, "Hello, Qian Chen, my name is Wan Deng."
Qian Chen was puzzled: "Hello, I'm here today. I have something important to ask Lord Wan Deng for advice."
Wan Deng: "What's important? Let's talk slowly. Now I want to take you around to see the beautiful scenery of the City of the Sun."
