Chapter 208 The boat goes to Zhoushan
Shang Zhen and the others did not know that Zhu Xi, who had been greatly damaged again and again, had made up his mind to catch them.
Or, Shang Zhen and the others even knew it and didn’t care.
The world is so big that they don’t believe that Zhu Xi can always catch up like the dog that smells smells.
Bai Yuchuan still showed his talent like a male peacock in front of Nazao. When Nazao had time, he looked at him admiringly.
However, it was really a time when I had time, because I was very busy.
That za also requires arch practice. She also wants to practice her ability to shoot stones with a slingshot to be as superb as Shang Zhen.
And Xitang is soaked with Han Wenmu every day, talking about the firearms of the Han family.
Xitang likes novel things. He thought that he could not practice Shang Zhen even if he practiced bows and arrows, so why not think of a way on the firearm?
But Shang Zhen was much quieter than them.
While on the boat, he sat in the cabin and read the books of Han Wenmu.
If you don’t go out, you don’t know how big the world is, and if you don’t read, you don’t know how vast the sea of books is.
Shang Zhen really hasn't read these books by Han Wenmu.
These books include navigation, firearms, troops, Japanese archipelago, and manufacturing mechanisms.
These things were called "strange and lustful skills" by authentic literati, but in later generations it was called science or manufacturing.
What have the Han people believed in since ancient times? Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism!
Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism do not talk about these things. What people talk about is what they are talking about? The ones that restrain one's own behavior and thoughts are called cultivating one's mind, understanding the mind and seeing the nature, and finally entering a state of Tao.
Of course, what the so-called Tao refers to is that it is different from one's own opinion.
All the strange and lustful skills are foreign objects, so Chinese people do not pay attention to them!
For example, Mozi made a wooden kite that could fly in the sky for several days, for example, Zhuge Kongming made a wooden ox and a flowing horse during the Three Kingdoms period.
Why can’t these things be passed down? Because Chinese people don’t like this!
But not paying attention does not mean that those things are not important. Low-level figures like Shang Zhen like these abilities the most.
Shang Zhen read Han Wenmu's books so intoxicated.
When the boat was moored to the shore, Shang Zhen stopped reading, and he became busy.
What is he going to do? Swim, swim in the sea!
Shang Zhen finally found the trick of water. With his ruthlessness in Datiuweishan, he swam and was exhausted every time he climbed back to the boat.
Shang Zhen was so hardworking that sometimes when he was swimming in the sunset, Han Laoliu, the sixth uncle of Han Wenmu, pointed at Shang Zhen's shadow in the water and said to his friend, "Look at others, if you want to develop real skills, you must have such a ruthless spirit!"
Friendship between people comes from all things.
Shang Zhen was easy-going, wedding candy was lively, Bai Yuchuan was so arrogant, and his thorns were beautiful. Soon the guys on the ship also treated the four of them as brothers and sisters.
In this way, these three boats stopped and finally bypassed the sea boundary of Nanjing Province and entered Zhejiang.
Han Laoliu was an old man who went out to sea. Along the way, he had his own way to avoid the pursuit of the imperial navy, and the Jinyiwei never showed up again.
That afternoon, while Shang Zhen was still reading a book in the cabin, Xi Tang rushed in and grabbed the book in his hand.
"What are you doing?" Shang Zhen complained.
"I won't look at it anymore. The guy on the boat said that the boat was about to arrive, so we have to think about what to do next." Xitang said.
"Oh." Shang Zhen heard Xitang say this and stopped reading the book, and stood up and went out of the cabin.
The sea breeze was blowing, and Shang Zhenxitang stood at the bow of the ship.
Shang Zhen looked forward and saw a piece of green appeared at the distance between the sea and the sky, and it should be an island.
"I can finally get to the ground," Xi Tang said with great emotion.
The feelings of wedding candy naturally make sense.
He, Shang Zhen, Nazha, both came from the northwest inland. Although Bai Yuchuan was from the capital, he was also an animal on land.
When they first arrived at the sea, they felt fresh, but gradually when there were wind and waves on the boat, they began to get uncomfortable.
It’s not like seasickness, but the swaying feeling really makes them uncomfortable.
They got used to it for several days.
Now I see land again. Although it is just an island, Xitang suspects that he may not be able to walk even if he walks to the ground.
But Xitang sighed here, but Shang Zhen did not answer. He looked at the island in front and became thoughtful again.
To be honest, Shang Zhen really doesn’t want to go to the island, he wants to go to the mainland!
And he had this idea based on the most basic reasoning.
Lao Han’s family is a private dealer, and the private dealer takes a lot of goods and copper coins, so it must have a foundation.
And now it seems that the island is the stronghold of these private dealers.
Although Shang Zhen does not have much concept of abiding by the law, it does not mean that he wants to get along with these money dealers.
But what should they do now that they go to the island?
Since there is a stronghold for private traffickers, how could they go back to the mainland? Could it be that they would spend money to buy a boat from Han Laoliu and row it back?
But how do you buy it? Their money was originally stolen by the old Han family.
Although Han Laoliu didn’t say he wanted the money back, it would be inappropriate to spend other people’s money now?
"Oh, I'm finally going to the place." At this time, another voice sounded behind Shang Zhen, and it was Han Wenmu who came over.
Shang Zhen glanced at Han Wenmu and suddenly felt aroused in his heart.
During this journey, Shang Zhen and Han Wenmu got along very well, which was naturally because of their similar personalities. They were not talking much when they read books and studied.
But now we have to face the real problem again, Shang Zhen's head became lively again, and he had to make some comments from Han Wenmu.
"Is your family a private goods seller?" Shang Zhen glanced at Han Laoliu before asking.
"Well, you only know?" Han Wenmu heard Shang Zhen suddenly ask about this, but he also looked back sneakily.
This is a child, and obviously he is also afraid that his sixth uncle, Han Laoliu, would hear it.
But he felt that he had a good relationship with Shang Zhen, so he would feel sorry if he didn't answer.
"Look, even the blind man can tell that it is because he scared you." Shang Zhen said with a smile.
Han Wenmu smiled embarrassedly.
"I don't ask about your private trafficking, I just want to ask about the Japanese pirates.
Now I’m in Zhejiang, so there should be too many Japanese pirates?" Shang Zhen asked.
What Shang Zhen wanted to ask about the Japanese pirates.
When he was with Qi Pingbo in the northwest, Qi Pingbo was deeply troubled by Japanese pirates and said that the bandits in Zhejiang Province were the most influential.
Regarding the previous life, Shang Zhen did not think that Jiuxiang would be reincarnated in the same era as him.
The six realms of reincarnation are what Buddhism says, and Buddhist Bookshang Zhen has seen it.
It is said that people who have never read Buddhist books in their previous life.
But it is not what people say in Buddhism.
In his previous life, he was a human being, but he did many evil things. For example, if a pig killer may be reincarnated as a pig in the next life, and then the pig he killed in his previous life may become a butcher, and the other way around in this life.
Of course, you may not become a pig in your next life, or a crab, a bird, a sheep, or something else.
The so-called "fate" is also passed down from Buddhism. In profound words, the so-called fate is called the harmony of cause and condition in Buddhism.
I won't mention this situation.
There is another situation.
That doesn't mean that you were a man in your previous life or a man in your next life. You may become a woman. Of course, you may also be able to castrate yourself and become a eunuch.
In addition, if you have a relationship with a husband and wife in your previous life, you may not necessarily be born as a human being in the next life. Maybe the husband or wife in your previous life will be apart in this life!
Shang Zhen was a scholar, in other words, he was a knowledgeable person, so he didn't think he would be able to reunite with Jiuxiang in this life!
Shang Zhen now knows that it is useless to think about Jiuxiang. Then, wasn’t he the only thing he left to think about Japanese pirates in his previous life?
These days, Han Laoliu did not prohibit Shang Zhen from looking at the charts, but Shang Zhen already knew that the island in front should be one of the Zhoushan Islands.
Japanese pirates in Zhejiang are rampant. How could there be no strongholds for Japanese pirates in these archipelagos that have left the mainland?
