[Volume Two] Chapter Thirty-Two Stars Breaking the Clouds
【Volume 2】Chapter 32 Stars Breaking the Clouds
Seeing that Yun Ruoruo had fallen asleep, Li Quancheng also felt waves of sleepiness coming over him. He wanted to lie down here too, but when he thought that this girl's family were all arms dealers, Li Quancheng felt like he was being doused on his head.
A bucket of ice water was poured on him, which made him sleepless. The fire was extinguished and there was no spark left, so he got up and walked out of the room.
"Hmph - coward!"
After Li Quancheng walked out of the ship building, Yun Ruoruo's eyelids moved and she muttered weakly, but fell asleep without opening her eyes.
It was dark at night on the river, and the boat did not dare to go too fast. The wheels had already stopped, and it was moving completely relying on the power of water and wind, but the speed was still extremely fast. The wind was too strong at the bow of the boat, so Li Quancheng had to hide at the stern.
The third floor of the boat building is occupied by Qiulan, the second floor is occupied by Yun Ruoruo, and the first floor is occupied by Long Wenhu. Once you enter, it is like entering an abalone restaurant, which is of extremely high quality.
It's so bad that Li Quancheng couldn't bear to go in...
He was not a hypocritical person, but Long Wenhu's feet... let alone mentioning it, Li Quancheng sighed quietly, leaning against the wall of the ship building and sitting on the deck, looking at the thick ink-like night in a daze.
Being in a daze is a technical job. Only when you have no distractions and a blank mind can you enter the state of no self and nothing in the daze state. And it cannot be the kind of sudden daze like a flash bomb...that kind of is a concussion...
I'm afraid I'll be in a daze after I wake up!
But Li Quancheng really wants to shock himself now. After having a long talk with Yun Ruoruo, his mind is now as chaotic as a goldfish pond scrambling for food, with countless thoughts just like those red carp, white carp, koi fish.
One by one, they emerged from the water, revealing their mouths that opened and closed, spitting bubbles, making him worry about gains and losses, but he didn't know where to start.
From Yun Ruoruo's mouth, he learned a lot of knowledge about machine arts, such as drum carts, compass carts, wheel looms, textile looms, etc., all have come out. Although they are all for civilian use, they prove one thing.
, there are a lot of scientists in this era, this result did not make Li Quancheng have the kind of resentment that he has traveled to the wrong era...ahem... There is still a bit of resentment, but it is not because he can't become an awesome inventor.
!
It is indeed an extremely refreshing thing to use what seems to be a very simple invention from later generations to win the favor of the emperor, the favor of the princess, and the admiration of the girl in ancient times. However, it is important for people to know themselves and what they are. Li Quancheng is better than anyone else.
Everyone knows that if he is asked to "invent" and provide theoretical and creative support, he can do it, but if he is asked to do it, he can't even think about it.
What he resented was that he was born in this troubled world by mistake, so he had to do "stupid things" - such as kidnapping, running away, fighting with a group of ancients with a machete, or fighting the famous Hu Lu in history.
We must fight fiercely...Every one of them is so stupid that it's so stupid...!
Grudges are grudges, but as the saying goes, since your shoes are wet, then just wash your feet. Since you have washed your feet, then take a shower, and completely throw yourself into the embrace of this fucked-up troubled world. Since it is in chaos, I
Let it become more chaotic, and the chaos will last forever, and the chaos will turn into pieces!
"Marx said that science and technology are productive forces, and facts have proven that this is right. Grandpa Deng said that science and technology are the primary productive forces, which further emphasized the importance of science and technology. I established a large Academy of Sciences in the Song Dynasty to recruit
Talents from all over the world, let’s see how, driven by the jet engine of science and technology, they can bring the Song Dynasty, which should have been destroyed, into that corner!”
Finally, Li Quancheng excitedly slammed the deck, stood up suddenly, and looked into the distance - and then he saw a few bright spots in the darkness, like a few stars breaking through the clouds, dazzling!…
The bright spots in the distance appeared one after another, and finally formed a straight line. Of course, they were not stars... No stars appeared at this time, and no stars could move on the water!
Those were the sidelights or mast lights on the ship, but no matter what the lights were, they must be coming ships, and there were quite a lot of them. At this time, we reached the lower reaches of the Nanshui River. The river surface was wide and the water was neither fast nor slow. Because when sailing at night, there were many boats on both sides.
The wheels of the boat had stopped, so Li Quancheng's boat had slowed down a lot, but the four boats behind them obviously didn't care about the safety of sailing at night, but they were moving extremely fast.
Li Quancheng climbed to the stern and stood on the side of the ship. Now his eyesight was very good. Even though it was night, he still saw the hazy silhouette of the ship in the distance! Li Quancheng's eyes shrank, and what he originally wanted to say was stuck.
After holding back a sound in his throat for a long time, he cursed faintly in an extremely complicated tone: "Damn - you are really chasing me?!!!"
At this time, besides Miao Yan, the Mongolian princess, who else could have such courage to sail such a desperate boat?
Without thinking, Li Quancheng sounded the alarm bell at the stern of the ship. The urgent bell went down the wind and reached the two ships in front. Everyone woke up. After a while, Zhao Bei's ship suddenly gave way to the owner.
In the channel, Dou Wen in the middle did not say a word, but directly ordered to move forward at full speed. The wheels started turning again, the masts were full of sails, and the cars and ships accelerated instantly!
Li Quancheng's boat also began to speed up, and soon caught up with Zhao Bei. Their boats were traveling side by side. In addition to the boatman, the three boats each had less than a hundred people to fight, but most of them were
It was arranged on the boat of Lao Wa and Lao Ma, and the total number of combatable people in their two boats was less than thirty.
At this time, a man in black ran over and asked: "Sir, General Zhao asked us if we know how many ships the enemy has?"
Li Quancheng was stunned and asked in surprise: "Can you communicate tonight?"
"Sir, under normal circumstances, both sides will avoid water battles at night because communication is inconvenient and there are too many ships to command effectively. But we only have two ships now, so we can still exchange information through flags!
"
Li Quancheng pointed to the small bright spots behind him and said, "Can you tell how many ships are coming from the number of ship lights?"
"cannot!"
The man in black answered decisively, blurting out without even looking.
Li Quancheng was stunned and kindly reminded: "You haven't even read it yet..."
The man in black gave Li Quancheng a very melancholy look and said: "Sir... I even used my clairvoyance to see it and I didn't see the ship's lights. If you want me to see them with my naked eyes, even a small person can tell them without looking. I definitely don't know how many there are."
Boat..."
"You didn't even see it with your clairvoyance?"
Li Quancheng was stunned and said, "Don't you have night blindness?"
He turned around to let others take a look, but no one saw it either. Li Quancheng felt a little guilty. Could it be that I was deceived by what I saw? It would be great fun!
Li Quancheng took over a single-tube three-section telescope. This was passed from Persia in the Western Regions. The workmanship was not very good, but it was extremely expensive in the Song Dynasty. When Li Quancheng picked up the telescope and took a look, the space was instantly stretched.
After getting several times closer, it was indeed a car and a boat. Li Quancheng could still see the white rapids beside the boat and the waves caused by the rapid rotation of the wheels.
"It's definitely an enemy ship!"
Li Quancheng said calmly, there were people from Zhao Bei on the ship, and there were also people brought by Li Quancheng from Xiangyang, but no one on both sides doubted the authenticity of Li Quancheng's words, and no one was curious about how Li Quancheng saw it.
Because this gentleman is gifted, loved by God, and can see thousands of miles at night, there is nothing surprising about it. After all, he created the strange storyteller-like plot of running thousands of miles day and night to capture Xiangyang City.
After all, the myth of "The Invincible Emperor" was also left behind by him, and each of the two parties happened to know one of the things...
Li Quancheng slowly raised his telescope and found that the hulls of these ships did not have much protection. Some of the iron thorns and iron sheets had been removed. This made Li Quancheng quite surprised. Could it be that the other ships were really just ordinary merchant ships?
At this time, a white figure floated into his sight. It was a piece of clothing. Li Quancheng adjusted the direction of the telescope, and then he saw a man in white. The white clothes were whiter than the snow, and the jade belt was wrapped around his waist... well... his waist was a little...
Fine... Li Quancheng muttered to himself and moved the telescope slightly upward.
Suddenly, Li Quancheng's hands shook in fright, and he almost dropped the thing in his hands. He saw the man in white, who was also looking at him with a telescope!
Fortunately, Li Quancheng and his group of unscrupulous roommates used to play the unscrupulous game of "look at the girl across from me". But now, he hasn't played it for nearly a month. He is just a little rusty, or his face has deteriorated.
After a while, when he came back to his senses, Li Quancheng suddenly wanted to relive the romantic affair and glorious time on the campus of Peking University where "one glance made hundreds of girls blush"... It was really ecstasy... Uh
——That's a man opposite...
Li Quancheng secretly felt ashamed, but found that the man didn't seem to notice him. He slowly lowered his clairvoyance, revealing an extremely delicate face and a slender neck without an Adam's apple... Then Li Quancheng's dog eyes were illuminated.
Blinded for a moment, he blurted out: "Damn - it's really you who is chasing me!"
"Who's coming?"
The flag soldier next to him asked curiously. Li Quancheng slowly put down the telescope and said in a heavy tone: "The princess is here..."
At this time, the hull of the ship swayed suddenly, and the dozen or so people on the deck, including Li Quancheng, all turned into rolling gourds and crashed directly into the first-floor ship building. Then three people came from the ship building.
There were screams, two of them were women, and one was a man. Among them, the man screamed the most miserably, as if he had been turned around by a group of men...
"Who the hell is catching my little dragon--ouch--who is hitting my balls again--fuck--my fart--"
That man was naturally Long Wenhu, who slept like a pig, but no one had any intention of arguing with him at this time. The ship stopped, and those who had been overturned into the ship's building climbed out of the ship's building.
, no one cared about Long Wenhu's life and death, and everyone went to check the cause. After a while, a centurion came back with a dark face. Li Quancheng's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly asked: "What's going on!"
