Rise of the Poor

Chapter 465: Shocking change

Views:

The black night enveloped the sky and the earth. Dark clouds like iron blocks piled directly onto the sea surface. The storm accompanied by heavy rain hit the ship hard. The waves rose one after another, creating huge waves. The ship swayed forward in the waves.

"Is the boat really not going to capsize?" The little maid Baozi held onto the pillar and felt the degree of the boat's shaking. She was still very worried and her face turned pale.

"Of course." Zhu Ping'an nodded vigorously, very calmly, "The boat we made is more than ten feet long, and this little wind and waves won't capsize it."

"Then, how strong a storm would it take for the boat to capsize?" The chubby little maid was somewhat relieved by Zhu Ping'an's calmness, but she still couldn't help asking out of curiosity.

"Tsunami or..." Zhu Ping'an was interrupted by the puzzled voice of the little maid Baozi before he could finish his words.

"Hai Xiao? How can the sea laugh without a mouth?" The little maidservant was puzzled, with a silly look on her face.

"It's not a tsunami, it's a tsunami, which is caused by the Haiti earthquake, volcanic eruption or abnormal weather. The power of the shock wave causes the sea water to fluctuate violently... Forget it, you won't understand even if I tell you. You just need to know that a tsunami brings about huge waves, thirty or forty feet high, which are very destructive." Zhu Pingan couldn't help but laugh at himself and shook his head. Really, what was he talking about vibration waves and energy conversion with them

The stinky toad knows everything about astronomy and geography, and it seems like he is very powerful... When Zhu Ping'an was explaining, Li Shu's eyes were shining slightly as she glanced at him.

"Thirty or forty feet..." The little maid opened her mouth in shock, "That high."

"We won't have that, will we?" Then, the little maid Baozi asked nervously. Thinking of the huge waves of thirty or forty feet high that Zhu Ping'an had just mentioned, she was extremely scared.

"Hey, why are you asking such nonsense? If you cause a tsunami, I will sell you to Mother Hua when I get back." Li Shu stretched out her slender hand and tapped the little maid Baozi on the forehead, scolding her.

After Li Shu finished playing, the little maid covered her forehead and shrank her head. She stuck out her tongue, a little embarrassed. It seemed that it was because of her bad mouth that the waves became bigger.

"Okay. It's getting late. You should go to bed early. I'll go back and read a book before going to bed." Zhu Ping'an shook his head slightly, stood up and said goodbye to Li Shu and the maid Baozi.

It was indeed getting late, and it had been a long time since dinner. Li Shu and Baozi, the little maid, should have gone to bed, and Zhu Ping'an also wanted to go back and read a book, as he hadn't read much of the book he brought on board.

The cabin where Zhu Ping'an was located was right next to Li Shu and her friends' cabin. It was just one step away from the door and turn left.

"You still have to study. You've passed the imperial examination and become an official, but it's not enough to bring honor to your family." Li Shu pouted slightly, unhappy that Zhu Ping'an left so early.

"I'm not studying for the exam." Zhu Ping'an shrugged and then smiled, "As for bringing honor to the family..."

When Zhu Pingan was talking about bringing glory to his ancestors, he suddenly paused. Then the smile on his face froze for a moment, and then his eyes suddenly opened wide.

Luck, I saw luck again. Actually, Zhu Ping'an would not have reacted like this if he had only seen luck. In the past, when he silently recited "Glorious Ancestors", luck would always appear. Zhu Ping'an had known about it for a long time, so he would not react like this. What made Zhu Ping'an react like this was the change in the luck of Li Shu and the little maid Baozi that he saw.

At this moment, the purple air was still rising above Li Shu's head, but there was a wisp of blood-red luck slowly coming down, and there was also a larger, dark black luck pouring into Li Shu's luck from the dark, increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It was even more obvious for the little maidservant next to her. The white luck column was shrouded in a layer of gloomy black luck, and there was a ray of blood-red luck slowly increasing on the edge.

However, compared to the blood-red luck, the black luck increased even more rapidly.

Seeing such a change, how could Zhu Ping'an not be shocked? According to the common sense of luck that he had learned in the past, blood-red luck represents bloody disasters, while black luck represents death.

A bloody disaster

Now he was on the vast ocean, with the navy led by Marquis Linhuai in front of him, so the bloody disaster was naturally not caused by the navy; besides Li Shu and her maid and nanny, there were only himself and the navy guards in the cabin downstairs. With Marquis Linhuai in charge, they naturally did not dare to commit crimes.

As for myself, I don’t know how to do it even more.

Well, if this bloody disaster refers to **, then it can only be caused by external factors.

Pirates! The first thing Zhu Pingan thought of was pirates. Before, because of the escort of Linhuai Hou's navy, Zhu Pingan never thought that he would encounter pirates. Even if the navy's warships or scale were reduced due to the maritime ban, Zhu Pingan believed that the navy led by Linhuai Hou could still crush all pirates, even in a large-scale encounter with Japanese pirates at sea, they could win. After all, the scale of warships and the number of artillery installations of the Ming navy are enough to crush the island countries.

But now the red bloody disaster forced Zhu Pingan to think of the word pirate.

It might not be possible at other times, but today it is very possible.

The navy led by Linhuai Hou was far ahead. On this stormy night, if pirates attacked, it would be one thing for the navy to detect it, but even if they did, they could arrive in time to rescue.

However, why is there only a trace of red luck represented by the blood disaster? This means that although the blood disaster exists, it is safe!

Then why is the black luck represented by death rolling in

The bloody disaster was a close call, but nothing serious happened. Then why is there such a surging black aura

This is contradictory!

Unless otherwise...

Zhu Ping'an's face suddenly changed when he thought of something, and his usually calm and composed expression broke for the first time... Hurting and destroying people, natural disasters, if it was not caused by human rights, then it must be a natural disaster.

"Hey, Zhu Ping'an, what's that expression on your face!" Li Shu was a little happy when she saw Zhu Ping'an stop and look back at her, but she didn't expect that this stinky toad suddenly changed his expression while looking at her and talking, as if he saw an ugly monster or a tigress, and looked terrified.

Bad guy, what's that look in your eyes? Am I that scary? I'm not a she-tiger!

Li Shu's pretty face turned black, she pouted her lips and showed her little tiger teeth to Zhu Ping'an, staring at him with her big watery eyes, demanding a satisfactory explanation from him, or else it would not be over. (To be continued.)
