In the calm seaside area, all ships are moving forward.
These ships are not ordinary boats, but unique creatures condensed from poetry. They have no sails or oars, and no mechanisms. Every aspect, including sailing speed, is completely determined by poetry.
When they first set out to sea, the ships were still scattered, but a quarter of an hour later, two large fleets formed in front, and the ships of Fang Yun's fleet accounted for 90%. Although the fleets of Zong Lei and his family were only slightly behind Fang Yun's fleet, the total number of ships was very small.
In addition to the two large fleets, there were dozens of tower ships sailing near or far, and behind each tower ship were some smaller boats.
These ships represent various major forces and are clearly divided into different groups.
In addition to the ships in front, there are some ships behind.
Some bamboo rafts and canoes were scattered everywhere, moving forward slowly like snails, looking a little desolate, and some small boats were not much better than them.
These small boats either missed the opportunity to follow the large fleet and are now unable to catch up, or the boat owners decided to slowly search for the Chinese mackerel in the open sea.
The further you go, the more Wenxin fish you will see and the better the quality.
It is impossible to catch a top-notch Wenxin in the coastal area. Even if you encounter an ordinary Wenxin, it is only the worst quality, and most of them are incomplete Wenxin, which requires swallowing multiple Wenxin fish to form a complete one.
The boat owners who followed the large fleet did not put down their fishing rods immediately. They all controlled their boats carefully to avoid being separated from the team and were not in a hurry.
Those boat owners who were already far behind knew that they were doomed to be unable to enter the open sea and had already dropped their fishing rods during the voyage.
Some brothers in distress gathered together in groups based on countries or ancient places, communicating with each other while observing the surrounding environment.
A small Jiaguo fleet of more than 40 people was sailing slowly forward. Compared with the large fleet ahead, they were like a group of snails moving.
"Alas, I really regret not following Fang Xusheng's fleet. At that time, I despised the Zong and Lei families, but I was afraid of being liquidated by the Lei family if I joined Fang Xusheng. In the end, I found that the speed gap was too big. Now it's too late for me to follow Fang Xusheng."
"I really envy Fang Xusheng. He was very decisive in Jing State, and he never bowed his head when he was ridiculed by the Zong and Lei families in Xuehai. He just competed when they said he would. This is called pride!"
"He is capable, but we are not. Forget it, since we have fallen to this point, we should stop complaining and think of a way..."
"Look! There's a black carp over there!" someone shouted.
The others looked in the direction of the sound and saw a three-inch long fish swimming in the water in front of them. At first glance, the fish looked like an ordinary white carp, but upon closer inspection, they saw a light source on its head, making the entire fish head transparent. The body of the fish constantly cast tiny starlight around it, which was magnificent.
"Three-inch Wenxin fish, not bad! As long as you catch four Wenxin fish of the same species. If the total length exceeds one foot, you can condense a complete Wenxin! Who's going?"
No one scrambled for it and no one spoke for a while.
Everyone is from Jia country, and none of them are willing to join the fleets of Zong and Lei. It can be seen that everyone has his own persistence, and they are not the kind of people who are only interested in profit. Even if they want to get the Wenxin fish, they can restrain their desires. They have the qualities that a scholar should have.
An old man said, "How about this, as long as you were discovered together, you should sort them by age. Start with the youngest. After all, the younger you are, the greater your potential achievements will be. Stop arguing. Wenxin fish are rare. If you don't take action, it is very likely that this fish will escape. You young people should report your ages first."
A dozen young men reported their ages, and the youngest Jinshi was 25 years old. He clasped his fists and said to everyone, "Thank you for your help!" Then he changed the direction of his canoe and headed towards the fish. Then he held the fishing rod in his hand, ready to hook at any time.
Some people looked envious and continued sailing forward while watching the man fishing.
"Most mullets only move around in a certain area. As long as you can see the fish, you have a chance to catch them. Unfortunately, there are too few mullets."
"No! Has anyone heard that you can find Wenxin fish just after a quarter of an hour in the sea of learning?"
More than forty scholars looked at each other in bewilderment, were stunned for a moment, and then showed joy on their faces.
"I understand! With Wenqu falling from the sky, and the saints working a little harder, there will definitely be more Wenxin fish this year than in previous years!"
"Yes! This year's visitors are dozens of times more than in previous years. If there were only so many Wenxin fish, wouldn't many people return empty-handed?"
"What bad luck! We are so stupid. If we had known this earlier, we should have followed the dragon boat of the Void Saint and waited until we reached the open sea. We would have obtained more Wenxin!"
"such a pity… "
Everyone looked ahead, watching Fang Yun's fleet getting farther and farther away and smaller, feeling extremely melancholy.
Fang Yun originally had no interest in the seaside, the open sea, or even the inland sea. His target was the heart of the sea!
As long as you reach the center of the sea, the rewards will be enormous.
Therefore, Fang Yun prepared to close his eyes and rest, gathering his strength to prepare for fighting against even bigger storms and waves. It is said that the deeper you go into the sea, the bigger the winds and waves will be. There will be waves that cover the sky and the earth, and typhoon pillars with a diameter of hundreds of miles.
Fang Yun originally thought that other people were like him, and would become active only after leaving the coastal area and reaching the open sea. But who knew that after just a quarter of an hour, many people began to chat in a very lively manner.
Fang Yun didn't care at first, but he soon discovered that everyone had discovered the Wenxin fish.
Fang Yun opened his eyes, walked to the side of the ship, observed the surrounding sea and boats, and listened to those people talking.
"There are obviously more mullets this year than in previous years! Even though we are still so far offshore, I actually saw three mullets!"
"There are more than before, and each one is over three inches long. In the past, it was considered good if a Wenxin fish in this area was two inches long."
Everyone discussed it and came to the same conclusion that this year's learning sea would be different from previous years and there would be a bumper harvest of Wenxin fish.
Some people had already taken out their fishing rods and were ready to fish, but the boat was sailing too fast and no one caught anything. These people were very rational and no one left the fleet for a mullet, allowing the mullet to leave.
Yan Yukong on the nearby ship said, "Fang Yun, don't rest. Take the fishing rod first, cast the hook and fish when you see a fish, and practice. When you are deep in the sea of learning, many Wenxin fish are not in a fixed area, and you may not be able to catch them if you miss them once. Especially the extremely rare instant Wenxin fish, once you miss it, it will be too late to regret."
When Fang Yun heard the words "Momentary Wenxin Fish", he was moved. That was an extremely excellent divine object.
There are three levels of literary mind, namely ordinary literary mind, supreme literary mind and supreme literary mind. Each type of literary mind is further divided into three levels: lower, middle and upper. As for the holy ones, they are extremely rare and currently only saints can master them, so they are generally not considered.
The human race discovered that, whether it was because the cultural mind was constantly increasing or because the cultural mind known to the human race was limited, new cultural minds would always emerge every few years.
When Confucius was alive, there were only three supreme literary minds. But four hundred years ago, a semi-saint said that there was an additional extremely powerful supreme literary mind, which even Confucius had never obtained. But it was said that one had to have the first three supreme literary minds to obtain it.
There are even great scholars who have calculated that if one could obtain the four supreme literary minds, there would be even greater benefits. Whether this is true or not is unknown.
Just five hundred years ago, the human race discovered a kind of literary mind that could not be classified as ordinary, supreme or supreme, and the number of times that kind of literary mind could be used was limited. The lower quality could be used once, the middle quality could be used twice, and the upper quality could be used five times.
Because the human race initially obtained low-grade Wenxin, which could only be used once, it was named Shanshan Wenxin.
At present, humans have only discovered three types of instant literary minds, and each one is extremely magical.
Many people don’t know what Momentary Literary Mind is and they just think of it as an incomplete supreme literary mind. Even Fang Yun only knew about this thing this year, and it was Yan Yukong who told him about it.
Yan Yukong has an instant literary spirit!
Return with nothing!
The original meaning of this idiom refers to leaving or escaping after failure, and the function of this literary mind is to withstand all attacks for a moment when encountering an attack that is difficult to resist, at the cost of a lot of talent and life.
"Returning with Failure" is very powerful, but also very rare. It is said that there are less than ten people in the entire human race who possess this kind of literary mind, and not everyone even has the ability to be a semi-saint.
No matter how rare the ordinary, top and supreme Wenxin in Xuehai are, they are still normal Wenxin fish. Even if they have all kinds of magical properties, if they fail once, there are other ways to get them.
But once the instantaneous Wenxin fish appears, if you can't catch it, it will completely disappear into the deep sea and no one can catch it. You can only wait until the next time the sea of learning opens.
"Brother Yan is right. I should get some Wenxin fish to practice. Opportunities are only for those who are prepared."
The two sides were too far away, and they were both speaking in very clear voices. The people around them could hear them clearly and nodded their heads. They felt that Fang Yun was very capable, and that any few words he said casually were full of profound truths, which could become famous sayings to educate and warn future generations.
Fang Yun walked to the front of the dragon boat, but felt a little troubled.
Because this ship is different from other ships. There is a ferocious dragon head in front of it. And it is not the wooden dragon head like those on sightseeing boats, but a lifelike golden dragon head.
With the dragon head blocking the way, Fang Yun couldn't go straight ahead to fish.
Fang Yun was thinking about whether to fish on the left or right side of the dragon's head when the dragon's head suddenly made a slight noise. Then he saw a staircase appear on the dragon's back, leading directly to the top of the dragon's head and between its two horns!
Fang Yun's face showed joy. He didn't expect that the dragon head was not just for decoration. It seemed to have other magical uses. So he stepped onto the stairs and walked to the dragon head, standing between the two dragon horns.
An invisible force protected Fang Yun and prevented him from falling.
Fang Yun stood on the dragon head, his clothes fluttering in the sea breeze. In front of him, the sea and the sky were connected, and the waves were sparkling nearby. Below him, there were ships dividing the sea water, and the white waves were rolling, making a deafening sound.
At this moment, Fang Yunruo is like the king of the sea, ruling the world.
Countless people looked at Fang Yun on the dragon head with envy in their eyes. This is what it means to cross the ocean of knowledge!
Fang Yun stretched out his hand and the fishing rod on the boat instantly appeared in his hand.
This fishing rod is thicker than everyone else's. It can be held in one hand. It is golden yellow with layers of dragon scales on the surface. The fishing line is thicker than others', and there are nine fish hooks, while others only have six at most. (To be continued...)
