Chapter 1 Langya Port, returning from sea
In the thirty-sixth year of the Qin Dynasty, Langya, Wharf.
Several large ships stood in front of the port. Their hulls were dilapidated and looked weathered.
Langya is close to the sea. This port is considered the largest sea port in Daqin. Xu Fu went to sea from here eight years ago.
At that time, the manpower and material resources of the Qin Dynasty were gathered to build a large number of large ships that could go to sea. They brought 3,000 boys and girls, craftsmen of various types, more than a thousand soldiers, hundreds of large and small ships, and prepared three years of food, clothing, medicine, and farming tools.
, under the leadership of Xu Fu, he entered the sea to seek immortality.
Before going to sea, the First Emperor even ordered the warriors of the Qin Dynasty to shoot the dragon fish here, thinking that it would be more convenient to go to sea.
At that time, it was an unprecedented event and the streets were packed with people!
After that, Xu Fu went to sea and there was no news again. Eight years passed in a blink of an eye!
The pier here no longer has the spectacular scene it once did.
The sea trade of the Qin Dynasty was not developed and was almost zero. With Xu Fu's departure to the sea, the only fleet in the Qin Dynasty that could sail across the sea disappeared without a trace. Langya's port was not suitable for inland water transportation. The once sensational
Langya Port finally returned to tranquility.
For example, dozens of sea-going ships docked at the port today, which has been a rare scene in recent years.
"Is this the fleet from back then?" Someone looked over and could vaguely see flags hanging on the boats, fluttering in the wind, with red letters on a black background and yellow edges, with the word "Qin" in the center.
However, except for the flag in the center that looked brighter, the flags on the other ships were in tatters and barely fluttering in the wind.
It can be seen that these ships belong to Da Qin!
"Xu Fu is back from sea?"
Xu Fu went to sea here eight years ago, and local residents can easily relate to it.
"Xu Fu found the Penglai Fairy Island, met the immortal and asked for the elixir?"
The people watching were talking a lot and having doubts...
On the big ship, Zhao Si stepped on the deck, looking at the land he thought about countless times day and night, and fell into deep thought.
"Back..."
"Although this is not my home..."
Zhao Si sighed softly, looked at the pier, looked at the crowd of people watching, shook his head and sighed.
He is not a person of this era, but a time traveler.
In my previous life, I was addicted to various extreme sports, sailing exploration, and wilderness survival. I finally accepted a sponsorship from Red Bull and planned to travel around the world alone. Unexpectedly, I encountered a thunderstorm. When I opened my eyes, I came to the Qin Dynasty and Xu Fu went to sea.
He became one of the three thousand boys and girls who traveled to the First Emperor's fleet to seek immortality.
Zhao Si didn't have time to experience the customs and customs of Da Qin, and faced the vast ocean.
Xu Fu searched for more than a year at sea, but there was still no trace of the so-called Penglai Fairy Mountain.
The long period of wandering caused some mental problems, diseases, confusion, and anxiety about not being able to complete the mission to some extent among the people on the ship, which began to spread.
Zhao Si also relied on his adult mind and methods to win the trust of most of his peers and became the backbone of most children.
Later, perhaps because the chaos on the ship was increasing day by day, Xu Fu was gradually unable to order the fleet, or perhaps because Xu Fu knew that the so-called Penglai Fairy Mountain might not be found at all.
While passing through a land of plains and vast swamps, Xu Fu had the idea of becoming a king on his own and spending the rest of his life.
So, under Xu Fu's instigation, and with the crew becoming increasingly desperate and longing for land, the fleet landed in Fusang and established a foothold.
Zhao Si knew that Xu Fu could not find the elixir of immortality, let alone the so-called immortal mountain and blessed land. He knew it better than anyone else.
It's just that he was still young at the time and was unable to stop it.
It’s not that no one questions Xu Fu’s decision, and it’s not that there are no loyalists who are still loyal to the Qin Dynasty. It’s just that the desire to live is the nature of most people.
But Zhao Si doesn’t want to stay in Fusang...
Staying in Fusang and being isolated from the Central Plains from now on, maybe with his prestige among the boys, he can become a great nobleman of Fusang in the future?
Then what?
Intermarry with the local indigenous people? Combine? Finally reproduce?
Finally... become a part of that evil race yourself?
And then he was affectionately called Xiaoli?
Zhao Si can't do it... Even though this is no longer his world, he still doesn't want to succumb to the little Fusang. Even if he travels through time and space and has not set foot on the land of Zhuxia, his heart will never be at peace.
Later, Zhao Si grew up and became famous by virtue of his prestige and intelligence, and gained Xu Fu's trust.
Xu Fu is a smart man. He knows that his base is actually these three thousand boys and girls.
Zhao Si also became Xu Fu's key training target.
Three years later, as Zhao Si's prestige grew, he secretly contacted people who cared about his homeland, gathered 900 men, seized the ship and left.
Started a journey around the world...
Thanks to the experience in the previous life, as well as the golden fingers from time travel and some little luck.
Zhao Si successfully completed the feat of traveling around the world during the Qin Dynasty, found sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn, and personally drew world maps, navigation charts, and safe waterways.
This time... it's been five years!
Only a dozen of the more than 30 ships that were taken out were left, and only about 400 of the more than 900 crew members were taken away.
Now, we finally sailed to the territory of Da Qin.
"Brother... Your Majesty, are you really not going to offend me?" Beside you, a short, thin, dark-skinned man asked with his upper body exposed.
The young man's name was Jing. He was one of the three thousand boys and girls who went to sea. He crossed over from Zhao Si and followed Zhao Si.
According to Jing, his family is in Nanyang, with two parents, two older brothers, and more than 200 acres of farmland. It is considered a standard well-off family.
Jing was first bewitched by Zhao Si and never gave up his longing for home. However, eight years passed in a blink of an eye. The little guy who would cry bitterly when he thought of home has become Zhao Si's trustworthy right-hand man.
"Don't worry!" Zhao Si patted Jing's shoulder.
"Your Majesty is not a person who kills indiscriminately..."
Qin Shihuang's reputation is indeed not very good, whether it is in history books or current popular reviews.
But to be honest, according to what Zhao Si learned in his previous life, the First Emperor did not kill the heroes indiscriminately after he unified the world, and he did not even kill the remaining sinners of the Six Kingdoms. The murderous intention was not too serious.
Wei Liaozi and the First Emperor were both upright and fair, and finally enjoyed their old age in peace.
When Dunruo saw that the First Emperor was not allowed to pay homage, he even criticized the First Emperor for imprisoning his mother. For such a taboo thing, the First Emperor still entrusted Dunruo with important responsibilities.
What's more, Zhao Si did not directly return to Qin after seizing the ship. Instead, he used the excuse of continuing to carry out the king's orders to travel around the world, draw maps, and find three kinds of sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn, and various spices and vegetable seeds before returning to Qin.
.
In summary……
It was Xu Fu who deceived the First Emperor. What does it matter to such a loyal and courageous man like us?
Not to mention they also brought back sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn, and various spice seeds.
The First Emperor, whose body was covered up in a scandal, had never been recorded as having killed his courtiers indiscriminately. If he behaved like this, it was safe to return to the Qin Dynasty.
When Jing heard Zhao Si's affirmative words, he nodded and looked at the land not far away with a yearning smile on his face.
Not just Jing, everyone on the ship trusts Zhao Si...
Zhao Si is always like this. When he first went to sea, he had an aura about him that made people close and trust him.
