"Mr. Zhao." Tang En knocked on Zhao Changhe's door. "Taiping Island is ahead. Let's go down to rest and replenish supplies. Do you want to go?"
It has been more than ten days since the voyage, and Mr. Zhao has never left his house. He sits cross-legged in the house without moving. He doesn't need to eat or drink, let alone poop or pee. There is not even a toilet in his house... It really refreshed the Tang family sailors' views.
Did you pull the bed
If you really don't need anything, then you are definitely not a human being, right
It is not surprising that he is the number one on the Human Ranking and the Human King. Maybe he has already obtained the second level of secret treasure. But even if it is the second level of secret treasure, everyone has seen someone like Tang Shouzuo. Tang Shouzuo also needs to eat, and he also needs to go to the bathroom after eating.
Zhao Changhe opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of foul air.
On this clear and crisp autumn day at sea, it was as if it was a cold winter, with thick white fog rising up.
"How many days have we been sailing?"
"It's already the thirteenth day." Tang En was very impressed: "Young Master can actually stay in seclusion for such a long time, he is truly a god-like person."
Zhao Changhe got out of bed and moved his hands and feet. He felt a little weak and needed to replenish his energy, which meant that he was not a god.
These days, I have actually been in a state of internal circulation and tortoise rest. My metabolism in my body is extremely slow, my energy demand is extremely low, and I am also actively absorbing the power of heaven and earth from the outside world, infusing it with the spiritual power from above and reaching the spring from below, to make up for the energy needed for practice.
Since the meridians were reshaped and the internal strength was broken through, this could be done... The top warriors were often able to meditate for a long time to gain enlightenment, based on this.
Of course, no one would play like this when they are full, they still need to eat... But if they are in an extreme situation, such as being trapped on an isolated island or falling into the water, they will not die if they have this level of ability. The first level of secret treasures dare not go out to sea, but the second level of secret treasures gives them confidence. The most important thing is that based on this point, they are not afraid of capsizing.
However, this so-called confidence actually means they don't dare to face the top existence of the sea clan directly. No matter to what extent they have recovered, even if their hard power cannot match Baoqin, they cannot face it directly, because everyone's understanding and mastery of the power of heaven and earth are not on the same level.
The secret technique of the sea people that Cui Wenjing used, which was to induce the water in the human body to run wild, was not something that ordinary sea people could use. There wouldn't be many sea people who could reach Wang Daoning's level, but once they reached this level, Zhao Changhe believed that he could not withstand it now and could not resist even a single move.
Cui Wenjing was hit by this move but survived, which shows that he can actually withstand it. Because he was injured first and had never been hit by this trick before, if he had made targeted preparations, he should have been able to resist it. In other words, only by having the triple secrets and being prepared can one have the confidence to face it head-on.
Still not strong enough... I thought I was climbing very fast, but when I looked up, there were still endless mountains ahead. And my speed of improvement could not keep up with the strength of the enemies I faced.
I wonder to what level my practice can be pushed after this overseas experience... I am still a long way from the threshold of the triple secret treasure, let alone a breakthrough.
Zhao Changhe opened the door and went out. An island appeared in the distance, and there seemed to be some buildings on the island.
Tang En was standing by the side waiting. When he saw him come out, he smiled and said, "That's Taiping Island. We usually make a stopover there."
Zhao Changhe didn't quite understand this: "Is it because we didn't have enough food and water?"
"In terms of food and water alone, it's actually enough for us to get to Haitian Island, but it's also good to replenish some along the way. In case we get lost, it's always more protection." Tang En smiled and said, "Besides, Mr. Zhao may not understand it in seclusion... Sailing on the sea for a long time is very suffocating. You always see the same scenery in front of you. Over time, your mental state will be wrong. The sailors and soldiers are not all veterans. There are still many newcomers who are on the ship for the first time. They need to adjust more, so resting and relaxing in the middle of the journey is very necessary."
Zhao Changhe understood and said with a smile: "Maybe there is a place where you can indulge yourself in a life of debauchery."
Tang En blinked and said, "If you go, we will keep it a secret and won't tell my young lady."
"Hey, who told you that I have a relationship with your young lady?" Zhao Changhe thought to himself that I didn't show my relationship with Wanzhuang in front of outsiders... Did someone spread the news of us walking hand in hand in the capital? Or was it Baoqin or Tang Buqi who was talking too much
Tang En smiled and said, "The young lady's attitude towards you is so special that all the old people in the family can see it. The old man is just pretending to be blind. In fact, he is very happy in his heart..."
Then he lowered his voice and said, "After all, he is your highness."
Zhao Changhe: “emmmm…”
Is it so obvious...
Ever since Xia Chichi and Xia Longyuan recognized each other, even though the attitudes of father and daughter were still very strange, Zhao Changhe always felt that his identity had been handed over back to Chichi. He wondered if Old Master Tang and the others would be extremely disappointed by then.
Tang En continued, "Speaking of this Taiping Island, it is not actually a dedicated island for replenishment, because there are not many ships on this route. It is good to have one or two fleets passing by here throughout the year. They are a group of Xia fishermen who go to sea to escape wars and harsh policies. The cause of their establishment is the same as that of many small countries overseas, but they are small in number, just a group of islanders fishing for their own pleasure. Later, there were occasional fleets passing by and looking for them to shop and replenish supplies, so they set up some inns and gambling houses. The prices were very expensive, after all, they were only open a few times a year. Brothels were even more expensive..." Zhao Changhe suddenly said, "They themselves are fishermen running brothels? Where do the girls come from? From their own town?"
Tang En was stunned. Obviously, he had never thought about this problem and didn't know what to do for a moment.
Zhao Changhe added: "We can see pirates blocking ships near our coast. You can see how rampant pirates have become. How can some simple fishermen still have fun on the island? Do they have the money they earn to spend it?"
Tang En opened his mouth wide, stunned.
I originally thought this place was normal, but after Zhao Changhe's casual remarks, I suddenly felt that it had become a tiger's den and a dragon's den. I have been there for several times in the past few years, and I am so lucky that my kidneys are still there
After a while, he came to his senses and quickly sent an order: "Don't go to Taiping Island, we..."
Before he could finish his words, he was stopped by Zhao Changhe. Turning around, Zhao Changhe seemed to smile and said, "If you were fine when you went there before, then you will probably be fine again... I want to go and see what kind of tiger's den and dragon's pool this is."
This is the detective addiction coming back...
The blind man crossed his arms and thought to himself, "You wanted to throw away the jade token at the beginning. It's obviously what you like. Of course, this trait also suits her needs very well. Xia Longyuan is right."
Tang En was speechless: "If you know it's dangerous, there's no need to go..."
"Why not? I've always been curious about why the pirates want to persuade us to return... Aren't you curious?"
“… I’m not curious.”
"Even if you're not curious, you have to go. Eat and drink."
"Bang." The fleet slowly approached the shore amid the argument.
The sailors on the ship got off the ship with joy and ran happily towards the wine flag in front of them. The seemingly deserted island suddenly became lively.
Zhao Changhe had been in seclusion all the time and really had no idea what these sailors felt like, looking at the same sea water from beginning to end for more than ten days. He could not understand that kind of passion.
I walked among the crowd, observing with great interest.
I thought it was just a small island, a small town, and one or two taverns, but when I saw it with my own eyes, I realized that it was a huge area of taverns, casinos, and brothels. The scale of these entertainment venues alone was almost enough to form a town.
That's true, a fleet usually has a lot of people, and one or two small taverns cannot accommodate them.
But the larger the scale, the more it proves that it is impossible for a few fishermen to do it on their own. There must be something fishy behind it.
Zhao Changhe followed the crowd into a restaurant. Inside the restaurant, there were many beautiful women. A group of women came up to him and said, "Hello, gentlemen..."
It turns out that the restaurant and the brothel are a direct combination.
Zhao Changhe didn't care and said to the madam casually, "Give it to these brothers. I don't need it. Find me a quiet room and I'll drink by myself."
At the same time, in the backyard of the brothel, Sanniang ran in excitedly: "I heard that Zhao Shouyi came into this house, right? Which room is he in? I'll go meet him."
No matter which hotel, gambling house or brothel Zhao Changhe enters, the proprietress will always be the third in command. This is the home court!
Hua Zhenming advised: "Third Master, you should be careful... This man is really strong, don't underestimate him."
Sanniang was full of confidence: "How can I be afraid of a little loser who went to whorehouse right after getting off the ship? If we capture him, the Tang family fleet will be ours."
