The tungsten wood vessel floated rapidly along the turbulent sea. Li Jun quickly came out from the bow of the vessel and stood side by side with Teng Qingshan as they gazed at the northernmost coastline.
"The eighth time!" Teng Qingshan still remembered the alternating speed of the water and the speed of the seawater.
"Big Brother Teng, you said that there is a huge island in front?" Li Jun said in surprise. She carefully looked to the north, but … she could only see a stretch of darkness, and only the whistling of the sea breeze could be heard.
"Mm!" Teng Qingshan nodded. "You'll see it later."
Unlike him, Li Jun didn't possess the power of the night.
After a long time …
"The ninth time!"
Teng Qingshan found that the speed of the ship had decreased again. Even though it was' slow ', it was still faster than the usual speed on the sea. At this moment, the so-called 'speed' was even more shocking.
"Peng!" Suddenly, there was a violent collision.
The entire tungsten wood vessel suddenly jolted.
"Eh?" Teng Qingshan frowned. "Not good, there are submerged reefs below!"
"Hidden reef?" Li Jun's expression also changed slightly.
If it was a reef protruding out of the water, he could have seen it long ago and avoided it. However, some of the reefs were below the surface of the water. The depth of the tungsten wood vessel's draft was just enough to touch these reefs. This made it impossible for anyone to avoid it. He could only rely on luck!
"Peng!" Another collision.
The tungsten wood vessel swayed again. Li Jun hastily grabbed the bow of the vessel, fearing that she would fall into the sea.
"It should be fine." Teng Qingshan comforted him, "This tungsten wood vessel is made of tungsten wood, which is harder than steel and has better tenacity. Furthermore, the bottom was thickened to withstand the impact! We ran into many submerged reefs along the way, but we were fine. They had to make it through this reef area. Everything would be fine. “
Peng! Peng! Peng!
Again and again, the tungsten wood vessel shook.
The ship's speed was so fast, and the collision was so violent.
Even a ship made of real steel would have a big hole in it. Fortunately, it was made of tungsten wood, which was much more tenacious and could withstand the impact.
Moments later …
"Big Brother Teng, I see it, I see it. Could it be that we have arrived at the Northern Sea Continent?" With the help of the blurry moonlight, Li Jun finally managed to see the long coastline. Especially when she looked closer, she couldn't see the end of it.
"Right now, we are only a few Li away from the island." Teng Qingshan looked at the turbulent sea. The tungsten wood vessel violently shook again and crashed into a submerged reef.
Teng Qingshan, on the other hand, was calculating in his mind, "Alternating between fast and slow speeds, each time the distance is tens of miles. This is the ninth time … In other words, there are a total of nine interlocking zones … Nine interlocking zones! "Teng Qingshan carefully looked at the land several li ahead. The vegetation on the beach was very lush.
"Chi — —" The tungsten wood vessel stopped at the seaside. Teng Qingshan dropped the anchor and stopped steadily.
"Little Jun, let's go down and take a look," Teng Qingshan said.
"Um." As usual, Li Jun and Teng Qingshan got off the boat together.
"Screech ~ ~" The Whole Gale Eagle also flew up and disembarked the boat.
By the time Teng Qingshan and the others arrived at the seashore, the sky had already begun to brighten.
On the beach.
Teng Qingshan and Li Jun walked side by side on the beach. Suddenly, Teng Qingshan's expression changed. He turned his head to look at the lush vegetation and shouted, "Come out!"
"Swoosh swoosh!"
A chaotic sound immediately came from the lush vegetation. Teng Qingshan's body moved like a strong gust of wind. In the blink of an eye, he had already rushed into the lush vegetation. Li Jun waited at the same spot. She trusted Teng Qingshan very much.
Soon — —
"Big Brother Teng." Li Jun smiled and shouted. At this moment, Teng Qingshan grabbed a middle-aged man and walked back.
"Hero, spare my life. Hero, spare my life!" The middle-aged man repeatedly said.
"Hero?" Li Jun looked at the middle-aged man in surprise.
In the Land of the Nine Prefectures, the term 'Hero' was rarely heard. Most importantly — — although the middle-aged man's accent was a bit awkward, his language was obviously the language of the Land of the Nine Prefectures.
"I will ask you one question, and you will answer one question. Be honest!" Teng Qingshan was holding a sharp sword in his hand. This was the middle-aged man's weapon.
The middle-aged man hastily said, "I am Shangguan Quan!"
"Shangguan, that's a rather rare surname." Li Jun muttered at the side. The middle-aged man called Shangguan Quan hastily explained, "Heroine, what you said is wrong! Shangguan is a big surname in our Northern Yan Town. "
"Northern Yan Town?" Teng Qingshan's heart stirred.
"How many people do you have in Northern Yan Town?" Teng Qingshan asked.
Shangguan Quan was startled. He seemed to be puzzled by Teng Qingshan's question. Teng Qingshan's face darkened. "I will ask and you will answer! If you hesitate — — "Teng Qingshan exerted force, and the sharp sword in his hand was immediately twisted into a dough twist. Soon after, a crisp sound rang out, and a large amount of crushed iron powder fell from Teng Qingshan's palm.
"Hardcore fan?" Shangguan Quan was stunned.
It wasn't difficult to twist a sword into a dough twist! It wasn't difficult to break a few pieces! But to twist a sword into iron powder was simply inconceivable.
Shangguan Quan was swept by Teng Qingshan's gaze and then looked at his hardcore fan. He felt a chill in his heart and hastily said, "I estimate that my Northern Yan Town has a few hundred thousand people."
"How many towns are there on the island?" Teng Qingshan asked again.
Although Shangguan Quan was curious as to why Teng Qingshan would ask such an ordinary question, he didn't dare to hesitate, "My Bright Moon Island has a total of eighteen towns."
Teng Qingshan and Li Jun looked at each other. Their eyes were filled with astonishment.
Even on some of the islands in the coastal waters of the Land of the Nine Prefectures, it would be considered good if an island had a population of several tens of thousands. Those that had a population of several hundreds of thousands were all very large islands. They didn't expect that — — in the depths of the North Sea, there was actually a large island with an estimated population of over ten million!
"Why did you come to the seaside so early in the morning?" Teng Qingshan asked.
"I am a fisherman." Shangguan Quan hastily said, "I came here in the morning … …"
"Fishermen carry sharp swords? I saw that your swordsmanship just now wasn't bad! "Teng Qingshan's complexion sank. When he went to grab Teng Qingshan, Teng Qingshan's desperate sword strike was indeed very powerful.
Shangguan Quan looked at Teng Qingshan in surprise, "Great Hero, we entered the 'Sword School' to learn swordsmanship since we were young. Who in the surrounding villages doesn't know swordsmanship? Great Hero, why do you say that? "
"Sword School?" Li Jun was stunned.
On the other hand, Teng Qingshan was shocked!
Could it be that the Sword School was the same as the society in his previous life? Everyone had to learn swordsmanship since they were young? What kind of island was this? Over ten million people learned swordsmanship. Even in the entire Yangzhou, although there were two to three hundred million people. However, the number of people who could truly learn inner strength, swordsmanship, and so on was probably only ten million people.
The other ordinary commoners basically didn't have the opportunity. They only knew two or three moves of the banker.
"All of them learn swordsmanship?" Teng Qingshan asked, "Do they learn other weapons? What about axes and sabers? "
"Axes can chop trees, sabers can chop timber." Shangguan Quan hastily said, "However, the most powerful one is naturally the swordsmanship! The outstanding disciples of the Sword School have very powerful swordsmanship. "
"Yes, do you have any money?" Teng Qingshan suddenly asked.
"Yes, I do." The fisherman hastily took out a beautiful white pearl from his bosom.
… …
Teng Qingshan took a roundabout way to ask this fisherman, Shangguan Quan, and finally had a general understanding of the entire Bright Moon Island. The currency of the Bright Moon Island wasn't gold or silver. Instead, it was the unique pearls of the Bright Moon Island. They were divided into purple pearls, white pearls, and gray pearls. The most expensive one was the purple pearls. A purple pearl was roughly equivalent to a hundred white pearls, and a white pearl was equivalent to a hundred gray pearls.
*****
In order to prevent the tungsten wood vessel from being stolen by other fishermen, Teng Qingshan once again returned to the tungsten wood vessel. He rowed and forcefully advanced several Li towards the south. However, after a few Li, the seawater became turbulent and turbulent. Even though Teng Qingshan rowed very quickly, he was still barely able to offset the speed of the current.
From this, it could be seen how fast the current was!
Immediately after, Teng Qingshan dived into the water and pulled the iron rope. He pulled the tungsten wood vessel forward for around two Li and then stuck the iron anchor of the tungsten wood vessel on a reef.
"The current is so turbulent that even an innate expert would find it very difficult to swim in the undercurrent of a powerful sea." Teng Qingshan was at ease leaving the tungsten wood vessel here. He then dismantled the Reincarnation Spear and put it into his bag. He also took out an Iron Leaf Fruit and put it into his bag before leaving the tungsten wood vessel.
On the beach.
"Let's go!" Teng Qingshan, Li Jun, and the kidnapped fisherman, Shangguan Quan, set off together.
… …
On a desolate dirt road, Teng Qingshan and Li Jun carried their bags and set off together with Shangguan Quan. Meanwhile, the Whole Gale Eagle was circling in the sky. Shangguan Quan didn't know the relationship between the Whole Gale Eagle and the two people in front of him.
"Hero, you're too powerful. You can carry a big boat so far by yourself?" Shangguan Quan was full of admiration. "That's the legendary Nine Rhythm Treacherous Current. Even the powerful disciples of the Sword Tower wouldn't dare to enter the Nine Rhythm Treacherous Current. Many fishermen would drown if they swam over without permission. "
Teng Qingshan smiled.
Nine Rhythm Treacherous Current?
This name wasn't bad. According to Teng Qingshan's observation … … the undercurrent was so turbulent that even innate experts could swim by themselves. If they had to drag a big boat forward, even a Golden Dan innate expert wouldn't be able to last long. After all, they couldn't last as long as Teng Qingshan.
"Nine Rhythm? Who named it? "Teng Qingshan's heart stirred. It seemed like someone on the Bright Moon Island knew that there were nine speeds of acceleration.
"It's been a long time." Shangguan Quan said, "In any case, it's been passed down from generation to generation. However, no one was able to pass through the Nine Rhythm Treacherous Current. Hero, did you come from the outside? "Shangguan Quan was also a bit aware of this.
Teng Qingshan smiled and glanced at him, "The less you know, the more you'll live!"
Shangguan Quan felt a chill in his heart. When he thought of Teng Qingshan's terrifying means, he nodded.
"Little Jun, let's take a look at the Bright Moon Island. Later, let's get some food on the boat!" Teng Qingshan said. Li Jun nodded. She was tired of eating grilled fish. Teng Qingshan and Li Jun didn't hide the existence of Shangguan Quan when they talked … … As an island resident, he would just stroll around and get some goods before leaving.
Why would he need to care about others?
… …
Not long after, Teng Qingshan and the others walked on a main road and saw a village not far away.
"That's the village I live in." Shangguan Quan said with a smile.
Teng Qingshan glanced over.
"Ha!"
"Ha!"
A group of children, who looked to be only five or six or seven years old, were holding branches and practicing a set of sword techniques. With Teng Qingshan's eyesight, he was able to judge, "This sword art is actually a top-notch sword art! The ordinary children in the village practice a top-notch sword art? "
"The children are practicing swordsmanship so that they can enter our Northern Yan Town's Sword School in the future!" Shangguan Quan said with a smile, "Only by working hard when you're young can you stand out in the Eighteen Towns' Sword Schools and enter the Sword Tower! Becoming a powerful disciple of the Sword Tower! "
