The steel building ship advanced slowly, and the surrounding area was quiet. All ships, large and small, retreated in advance when they saw the steel building ship from a distance.
Han Song arranged a place for Chen Shaojun, and everything after that was relatively simple. Chen Shaojun just took a free boat and went to the south of the Yangtze River first to find a way to help his father solve the problem, and also to find a way to find a water magic weapon that was extremely dark and cold.
, and then head to the wild wilderness overseas together.
Other than that, he didn't have much contact with everyone in the ANBU, including the boatmen on the ship.
Except for occasionally coming out to take a breath and look at the scenery outside, Chen Shaojun spent most of his time in his room practicing the Nine Sons of Demon God Record.
Chen Shaojun has actually been practicing this technique for a long time, but for some reason, the Nine Sons of Demon God Record has always been very slow. So far, Chen Shaojun has not even mastered the first demon, so that the entire technique
His cultivation has come to a standstill.
During this period, Xiaowo spent most of the time in the water, transforming into a fish and following closely behind. Occasionally, when she got tired of being crooked, she would jump back onto the steel boat and sneak into Chen Shaojun's room to get some food.
Full stomach.
During this period, Han Song was quite enthusiastic. As long as he had any good things, he would send them to Chen Shaojun's room immediately. But the winter officer of the ANBU, apart from meeting him for the first time, in the following time, Chen Shaojun
There was no sign of her at all.
"This Lord Dong Guan is so strange. Brother Han, do you know what mission she is going to sea on this time?"
During the meal, Chen Shaojun suddenly asked.
"I don't know about that."
Han Song shook his head:
"Shao Sikong's order is for me to accompany you the whole time. As for Lord Dong Guan, we never dare to ask about her whereabouts. Even Lord Shao Sikong knows nothing about the mission of this wild trip, let alone us.
.However, I asked the crew on the ship and it turns out that they are just passing through the wilderness. Lord Dongguan’s purpose is not there. It should be to go to a deeper and more distant place."
Han Songdao.
"oh?"
Chen Shaojun raised his long eyebrows slightly and said nothing, but felt slightly relaxed in his heart.
The wild Xingtian secret realm is about to be opened, and the outcome will be known within three months. According to the spiritual knowledge left by the master, there will probably be many good and evil strong people there by then. Chen Shaojun is really worried that Dong Guan is also targeting Xingtian's essence and blood.
If you go, it might be a little tricky then.
If Dong Guan's destination is not there, it would be easier to say. At least Chen Shaojun won't have to worry about starting a fight with Dong Guan then.
The journey was uneventful. Since Dong Guan did not show up, Chen Shaojun would naturally not disturb her. The steel ship was traveling very fast, and Chen Shaojun and others entered the Jiangnan boundary.
On the high bow of the building boat, Chen Shaojun was dressed in Confucian clothes, with fluttering sleeves and standing with his hands behind his back.
“The water town south of the Yangtze River, the land of plenty.”
Chen Shaojun looked at it and said.
It was also the first time that he left the capital city and came to the south of the Yangtze River. The south of the Yangtze River was rich in beauty, outstanding people, and a vast place. It had produced many outstanding scholars, great masters, and was extremely wealthy.
When Chen Shaojun was in the capital, he often heard those dandies mention Jiangnan.
However, when Chen Shaojun stood on the bow of the ship, facing the strong wind and looking around, he couldn't help but frown deeply.
The steel building ship sails inland and is the Cao River for transporting grain from the north to the south. However, standing on the steel building ship, Chen Shaojun could not tell the difference between the river bank and the two sides.
Looking from a distance, both sides of the river are full of surging river water, and on the surface of the river, you can faintly see some exposed rice ears and half-submerged houses.
As far as Chen Shaojun could see, he couldn't see a single figure.
"Brother Han, how far is it from Jingchu?"
Chen Shaojun looked ahead and suddenly said.
Jingchu was where Chen Shaojun's father, Chen Zongxi, went to negotiate with the Shui Tribe. It was also the place where the floods were most serious. His father, Chen Zongxi, took the land route, while Chen Shaojun took the water route, hoping to pave the way for his father in advance.
"We should not be at the edge of the Jingchu boundary now. Judging from our current speed, even if we go quickly, it will probably take two or three days to travel."
Han Song thought for a moment and then said.
Chen Shaojun suddenly frowned deeply. There were still two or three days to go, which meant that there were still eight or nine hundred miles away from the land of Jingchu.
He knew that the floods in Jiangnan were serious this time, but Chen Shaojun did not expect them to be so serious. Before Chen Shaojun reached the boundary, the surrounding state capitals were already flooded. One can imagine how serious the floods there were.
"Actually, you don't need to worry too much. There are floods in the Jiangnan area almost every year. Over the years, the imperial court has built many water conservancy facilities for this purpose, including reservoirs and flood discharge tanks. All these water conservancy facilities should have been completed by now.
It is operating. In addition, the terrain in the south of the Yangtze River is high and low, and we are now in a river. Whenever there is a flood, the banks of the river are always the first to be submerged. As for other places, it may not be as miserable as what we have seen."
As if he knew what Chen Shaojun was worried about, Han Song continued.
"There have been floods in the south of the Yangtze River year after year, but there has been no movement from the imperial court? Ordinary local troops cannot deal with the Shui Tribe. Haven't you ANBU been tasked with dealing with the Shui Tribe?"
Chen Shaojun asked.
Chen Shaojun now also understands the functions of the ANBU. The ANBU has jurisdiction over internal affairs of the empire, whether it is ancient evil thoughts in the Earth Dragon Palace or local demon turmoil. Moreover, they are extremely powerful and generally
Can quell unrest very quickly.
"this!"
Han Song had a look of embarrassment on his face:
"The Shui Tribe has a special status. Young master should also know this. Not to mention our Great Shang Dynasty, other Great Wen Kingdoms, Great Wu Kingdoms, and various dynasties and empires, as long as the Shui Tribe does not do anything unforgivable, the court cannot
Dealing with them like ordinary monsters is already the default practice in the entire human world. Young Master is familiar with scriptures, so he should also know the origin of this practice, right?"
Han Songdao.
When Chen Shaojun heard this, his expression suddenly condensed. He had been studying scriptures well and focused on practicing martial arts and improving his skills. He actually didn't know much about other things, including the water tribe. However, what Han Song said, he still
I understand it more or less.
"Are you referring to that old thing from ancient times?"
Chen Shaojun said.
"Um."
Han Song nodded.
Chen Shaojun frowned slightly and his eyes fluctuated.
The current human world is divided into many plates, many landmasses, and many dynasty empires. There are even many special human empires in the outer world. Although they are not on earth, in ancient times, all humans are said to live on one piece of land.
.
The various landmasses in front of us were all spliced together in ancient times to form a complete and huge landmass. However, a big change occurred later. The originally unified ancient landmass suddenly fell apart and became the landmass now scattered in various places.
This led to the development of various dynasties and empires in the human world.
The relationship between the water tribe and humans began in ancient times. I heard that at that time, for unknown reasons, a great flood suddenly broke out between heaven and earth. This great flood submerged all the cities, land, and rivers.
The land, mountains, and even sea levels have risen dramatically.
No one knows why the great flood occurred, but when the sea cannot discharge the flood, it means the end of mankind.
The ruler of the human world at that time was another human emperor who was comparable to the Three Emperors, Emperor Yu the Great!
Faced with this unprecedented flood that swept through the three realms, even Emperor Yu was helpless. He tried many methods, but they still had no effect. At that time, the first batch of water tribes appeared, and they
Help Emperor Yu dredge rivers, control floods, and dig reservoirs.
And finally, and most importantly, with the help of Emperor Yu and all the masters of the three realms, those ancient water tribes took advantage of the situation and directed the great floods that flooded the world to a special space.
That space was extremely vast. Emperor Yu and all the strong men of the water tribe and humans used their magical powers to connect all the rivers, waterways, and all the water networks in the world to that space, and finally formed an independent water world.
The water tribe calls it the water realm!
This is the base camp of all the Shui tribes and the place where they were guarded by Emperor Yu. It can be said to be their hometown in the water.
It can be said that many people know this story. Chen Shaojun also read it in a miscellaneous book. However, Chen Shaojun doesn’t seem to know much about the specific situation. As for where the water realm of the water tribe is, the entire human world has been around for a long time, and I’m afraid not many people
Know.
The only thing we know is that the water realm of the water tribe seems to be connected to the water network of all human worlds in the world, and only the water tribe can travel back and forth between the two worlds.
Chen Shaojun didn't pay too much attention to this matter in the past. After all, it was a legend. But judging from Han Song's words, the relationship between the water tribe and humans seems to be far from simple. At least, it is definitely not a myth or legend. And it seems,
Even after tens of thousands of years, the entire human world seems to be silently abiding by the treaty signed with the Aquatic Tribe.
Hum, just as he was talking, Chen Shaojun's mind suddenly shook, and a strange feeling suddenly came to his heart.
"It's a river."
Chen Shaojun suddenly raised his head and looked at the rough river ahead.
At this moment, the sacred tree's ability to search for treasures that had been silent for a long time suddenly started. In the fog, Chen Shaojun sensed a milky white treasure halo.
The white treasure light was extremely far away. Judging from the sensed distance, it should be at least ten miles away. However, the white treasure light was coming towards the direction of Chen Shaojun and the steel building ship at an alarming speed.
