Under the brilliant starry sky, a small bamboo raft was floating on the dark sea.
It has been more than a month since Zuo Qingcang went out to sea.
He was lying on the bamboo raft, his eyes fixed on the stars in the sky, lost in thought.
Since coming to this world, Zuo Qingcang has been rushing, struggling, struggling between life and death. Only after lying on this bamboo raft did he have the time to carefully look at the starry sky.
But since the first day he observed the starry sky on the bamboo raft, he found that something was wrong.
In the night sky in the northwest, the Big Dipper is in line, the Milky Way hangs in the night sky like a belt of light, Alpha Lyra and Alpha Aquila look at each other on both sides of the Milky Way.
In the northeast of Lyra, there is the cross-shaped Cygnus constellation.
These constellations and Deneb in the Milky Way form a large triangle called the Summer Triangle, which is an important symbol of the summer sky in the northern hemisphere of the earth.
"Here … is earth?"
No matter how many times Zuo Qingcang looked at the starry sky in front of him, he could only come to this conclusion. But if this is really earth, then why is the history, terrain, and environment of this planet different from earth? Or, is this the so-called parallel world? The planet is the same, but the history and terrain are completely different?
Zuo Qingcang can't judge.
And this is not the only thing that is hard to understand. Ever since he had come back from the dead in the ancient tomb, Zuo Qingcang had noticed that his physical strength had increased tremendously. Even the Xiantian Qi in his lower body, which he had not been able to clear for a long time, had been cleared, and he had taken another solid step in his martial arts.
What is even more incredible is that his left eyeball, which has been dug out by Shenzong, has grown out again. Or it should not be said that it has grown out, but Zuo Qingcang does not know how to describe it.
According to the image on the surface of the sea, his new eyeball was as black as ink. There was no white in it at all, just like a black pearl.
Not only has the appearance changed, but this new left eye is more powerful than the original. He could focus according to Zuo Qingcang's thoughts. He could see the details like a magnifying glass, and he could also see distant scenes like a telescope.
He even had night vision and infrared vision. When he used infrared vision to observe himself, he could see that he was like a big fireball, constantly emitting heat in all directions.
The feeling that the left eye gave Zuo Qingcang was not like an eye but more like a machine.
'I just don't know if there will still be Nightsea in the eyes that have grown out.'
Zuo Qingcang's cold face revealed a trace of hatred when he thought about how Shenzong had taken away his eyes and life. Unfortunately, he didn't practice any Daoist techniques and didn't have any spiritual power to use. He couldn't detect whether his new left eye had spiritual power or not.
Of course, what Zuo Zhicheng didn't know was that the reconstruction of his eye was complete. It was almost the same as his old eye, and its various functions were more powerful, including all the organs in the eyeball.
As for the two books that he had stolen from the ancient tomb, they were all recorded using the Cloud People's ancient words. Zuo Qingcang could not understand them at all. He could only wait until he got ashore to find an opportunity to learn these ancient words.
At this moment, Zuo Qingcang's left eye moved slightly, and he saw a light on the coast in the north. As Zuo Qingcang's left eye continued to contract, the scene on the sea in the distance gradually appeared in front of him.
"It looks like a fishing boat."
…
After more than an hour, a few men on the fishing boat yelled and "fished" Zuo Qingcang out of the sea. At this time, Zuo Qingcang's hair was not only like weeds, but also dirty like a savage because he had lived on a deserted island for more than half a year and floated on a bamboo raft for more than a month. His skin was also abnormally dark because of the scorching sun.
However, because of this, no one could see the abnormality in Zuo Qingcang's left eye under the cover of his long hair.
A big man with thick eyebrows and big eyes with a beard asked, "Damn, boy, how long have you been floating on the sea with your dirty appearance?"
"About two months." Zuo Qingcang lied a little, "I was in a shipwreck and was stranded on a deserted island. It wasn't easy for me to escape, and I'm really grateful for your help."
The big bearded man waved his hand indifferently and said generously, "It's normal for people to help each other on the sea. You must be cold and hungry after floating on the sea for so long. Let's go and rest in the cabin. Drink a bowl of hot soup and eat an egg to get rid of the cold, and then sleep. "
"Xiao Lan, take care of this brother."
Just as he spoke, a girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old walked out of the cabin. The girl was tall and slender, with wheat-colored skin. Her height far exceeded the standards of this era, reaching about 1.75 meters. She wore a blue miniskirt, revealing a pair of straight and slender thighs.
Because she had been working on the sea, the girl's wheat-colored thighs were more muscular than ordinary girls. They looked abnormally round, which made her even more attractive.
However, although her skin was exposed to the sun for a long time, because of her young age, the skin on her limbs and face was still delicate. However, compared to the girl's hot body, her face could only be called cute. Even so, she was still a rare little beauty.
However, Zuo Qingcang only glanced at her slightly, thanked her, and followed the girl down to the cabin. While his head was still, his left eye was moving around, constantly collecting information about the few people on the ship.
Through his infrared vision, he could see that the girl and the few other fishermen on the ship were all ordinary people with strong bodies. Only the big bearded man, who he suspected to be the captain, had his right arm constantly emitting balls of weak flames. Although the intensity was very weak, it was indeed Innate Qi.
'Innate Qi. He seems to have cultivated a little.' As he walked into the cabin, Zuo Qingcang thought, 'The other fishermen also seem to have cultivated martial arts.'
Just as Zuo Qingcang was thinking about this, Xiao Lan, who was walking in front of him, said, "You can rest here for a while. I'll go get you something to eat."
"Alright. Also, can you give me a small knife and a few pieces of cloth? "Zuo Qingcang pointed at his head." There are maggots growing on my head. "
"Got it." The girl smiled and left with a series of tinkling sounds.
The young lady by the name of Xiaolan appeared innocent and unaffected. Even though Zuo Qingcang was just a stranger and was covered in dirt, she did not show any disdain or disgust on her face. This made Zuo Qingcang have a good impression of her.
A moment later, Xiao Lan brought a bowl of hot soup, a pair of scissors, and a few pieces of cloth to the cabin. There was also an egg in the soup.
Zuo Qingcang drank the soup and ate the egg. Then, he washed his face and wrapped his left eye with a piece of cloth. Then, he picked up the scissors and started to comb his hair.
Xiao Lan sat at the side and watched as Zuo Qingcang wrapped his left eye with a piece of cloth. She asked curiously, "Is your eye injured?"
"I'm blind. I was afraid that I'd scare you guys, so I wrapped it up."
A moment later, Xiao Lan watched as the weeds on Zuo Qingcang's head were shaved off bit by bit, gradually revealing his original appearance. She suddenly murmured, "You're so good-looking."
Zuo Qingcang smiled and said, "Oh? Is that so? "
In front of ordinary people, Zuo Qingcang seemed to have become an ordinary young man. He firmly hid all the coldness in his heart.
"I'm going to wash the dishes."
Seeing Zuo Qingcang's smiling face, Xiao Lan thought of something. She blushed and ran away with the bowl. But after running a few steps, she suddenly turned back. Holding back her blush, she asked, "By the way, I still don't know your name."
Zuo Qingcang thought for a moment. The name Liu Zhicheng would attract the attention of the Da Qi State. The name Zuo Qingcang might also attract Shenzong. So, he was stunned for a moment before answering, "My name is Zuo Zhicheng. Zuo as in left and right, Zhi as in ambition, and Cheng as in sincerity. "
