Chapter 180 Aquatic
"What? Can you handle a big boat with [-] materials?" Ren Daoyuan asked in surprise. You know, as far as he knows, the largest sea boat currently sailing on the sea only has [-] materials, and [-] materials is already above average. Big ship.

"Yes, it is said that he did command a large ship with five thousand materials. But the ship sank." The second steward said, who would have thought that a 16-year-old cripple would have so many stories.

Shuisheng was indeed born in the water. At that time, his parents were on their boat. When a storm hit, the boat was smashed, and the pregnant mother fell into the water and gave birth to him in the sea.

Perhaps it was due to giving birth in the water, exhausted all the strength, and died shortly after being rescued.Shuisheng has no parents or relatives. He grew up eating fisherman's food and lived on a boat since he was a child. It is said that he spent much longer time on the boat than on land.

Shuisheng is a born sailor. The things on the boat can be learned immediately. It takes more than ten years to learn stargazing and positioning. Shuisheng was able to use it proficiently when he was six years old, and he was older and more accurate than most boat bosses. .

Shuisheng has been an orphan since he was a child, so he takes great care of the children who are also orphans.There is no shortage of orphans among sea-goers. Most of these orphans grow up little by little while eating fisherman's food.

Ten-year-old Shui Sheng, relying on his talent for sailing, bought a boat and started sailing with a group of orphans.

Shui Sheng's boating skills, even the old man on the sea would give him a thumbs up, but this person's luck is not ordinary.After sailing for only half a year, the ship was destroyed and people died.It wasn't that there was a problem with his command, but that he had seen a ghost. On the coast of Bingzhou, he unexpectedly encountered a starfish for no reason.

In the next few years, Shuisheng successively earned two more boats, one of which was a big boat worth [-] yuan.But Shuisheng's luck is really not ordinary. These two ships were sent to the bottom of the sea due to various inexplicable reasons.

The boat was gone, many orphaned sailors died, and Shuisheng buried three boats in a row. In the eyes of the fastidious sailors, he became a demon star.

The ship is the land in the sea. In this small piece of land, it is everything for the people who drive the sea, and it is the basis of their existence.Therefore, there are many rules and superstitions for the people who drive the sea.

Demon stars have abilities that ordinary people cannot possess. They are very powerful and can come and go freely in the sea. The sea is their home.But the magic star suppresses all people and things related to him.

When the boat sank, everyone died.

Ever since he got the title of Demon Star, Shui Sheng's life has been difficult. No one wants to use him as the captain, and even hides when he sees him.There were fewer and fewer orphans around him, and in the end there were only less than 30 of them left. Shuisheng had saved all of their lives, some of them more than once.

The people who drive the sea are simple, they will never forget the grace of saving their lives, even if the benefactor is a magic star.

After the last big ship of [-] yuan sank, Shuisheng had no money and was still in debt.No one is willing to ask him to go on a boat, and even the orphans around him can't find work.

If there is no work, there is no income. You can owe debts first, but you can’t always be hungry. There are more than [-] people waiting to eat, and Shuisheng is so anxious that his mouth is full of bubbles.

Being close to the sea, you won’t really starve to death. Going to the sea to catch fish and shellfish, at least you can survive.But if you eat these things all the time, you can't get food and vegetables. Over time, your body will only get worse.You know, most of these orphans are children between the ages of twelve and twenty, and it is time for them to grow up.

After noon, Shui Sheng was sitting on a rock outside the town, looking at the boundless sea with a dull expression, could he really be a magic star?

Thirty or so brothers have always been by his side, and they will never leave. This is an honor, and it is also a heavy package, which makes him unable to give up.Maybe it's time for him to leave, as long as he leaves, it won't be difficult for the brothers to find a way to survive.Bingzhou is a treasure land, here, no one can starve to death.

I just left by myself, not knowing what the future of those sisters will be like.You must know that the people who drive the sea do not accept women, even baby girls who are breastfeeding, and they are not willing to accept them unless they have a boat.

Shui Sheng knew that when his family's boat sank, someone said bad things about his father, saying that his mother should not be allowed to go out on the boat, and that the Sea God hated women.

Shuisheng didn't know if this was true, but the family boat really sank.My parents are dead, leaving me alone, it's really tiring to live.

A group of people came from a distance, and it could be seen from the clothes on their bodies that they were foreigners.Shuisheng grew up in Xiangshui Bay since he was a child, and he didn't know other places except here and the sea.

It is said that these foreigners came from distant Qingzhou and Yunzhou, and they came to Bingzhou because they could not survive in their hometown.Shuisheng feels sorry for these people, but he also knows that these people are very rich, very very rich.

Originally, the arable land in Red Beach was only worth a hundred gold per acre when it was the most expensive, and the self-residential land could not be cultivated. The price was cheaper, and you could buy it for ten gold.But when these foreigners came, not to mention cultivated land, even their own land, an acre of land could be sold for tens of thousands of gold coins, and at this price, it was not sold to them.

Although Shui Sheng felt sorry for these people, he would not sympathize with them. Bingzhou has a lot of people and little land, especially the arable land by the sea. Most people still have to go to the sea to make a living. They can't live well, so they are not qualified to sympathize with others.

This pedestrian came for him, Shui Sheng knew it, but he was not moved, he was a magic star, and he was not going to harm those poor foreigners.

Shuisheng knew that there was a dilapidated boat by the sea, which was bought by those foreigners, who spent a total of [-] gold coins. When he thought of the price, Shuisheng felt his flesh ache.[-] gold coins, the big boat with [-] materials that I bought was only [-] gold coins.

Although Shuisheng is only 16 years old this year, and when he was born, one leg was disabled due to the cold sea water, but he is also a person who has seen money, tens of thousands of gold coins, it may not be a lot.

If he hadn't been a magic star, he would have earned more than 20 gold coins before he turned 15, not to mention Xiangshuiwan Town, even the entire state capital, he could be considered number one.There is absolutely no problem in supporting a group of siblings.

Thinking about when he bought the boat back then, he was very ambitious and vowed to let all the orphans driven by the sea have food and housing.

"Hello, you are aquatic, right?" Ren Daoyuan asked as he walked to the reef. There was seaweed on the reef, which was very slippery when soaked by sea water, but it was not difficult for warriors of low cultivation level.

The big boy in front of him looked very melancholy, and he was very different from his age, which made people feel distressed.

"Outlanders, you go away. I am a magic star. You should be very clear that people like me are not suitable for going to sea." Shui Sheng still looked at the sea in the distance and said without turning his head.

He had never seen the young man in the lead, and the middle-aged man who followed him had been here many times, and Shui Sheng never agreed to him.

The stranger asked a high price, high enough to make him ignore the rules set by the town. The money was so profitable that he and his brothers and sisters would not have to go to sea in the future.It's just my original wish, but it can no longer be fulfilled.

Although the rules in the town are not as strict as those of the empire, if you violate the rules, people like yourself will have difficulty moving an inch in Xiangshui Bay in the future.

In fact, this is not a problem. The biggest problem is that Shui Sheng also thinks he is a magic star, and it is very dangerous to follow him to sea.Not only will foreigners die, but those brothers who follow him will also be very dangerous. He doesn't want to see his brothers sinking into the sea in front of him again. It's too sad.

Ren Daoyuan chuckled lightly. As a Taoist, he only believed in the way of heaven. In the eyes of a Taoist, legends about magic stars and sea gods were nothing at all, they were all nonsense.

"Shuisheng, I don't care about the magic star, as long as you are willing to help me row the boat, you can drive it if you need any conditions." Ren Daoyuan said.

Shuisheng turned his head, and finally he was willing to face Ren Daoyuan squarely. Ren Daoyuan's appearance could only be considered average, and he was not tall, but it gave Shuisheng a very safe feeling, as if by his side, everything was no problem.

He had never experienced such a feeling before. In Xiangshui Bay, Shui Sheng was considered number one. He had seen it even at the head of the town, and he was very imposing.It is said that the head of the town is a strong man of heaven rank, very powerful.

In his heart, Shui Sheng compared the two, and found that the person in front of him felt better, more comfortable, and stronger.It's really strange that such a powerful foreigner can't survive in his hometown, and he doesn't know what happened to them?Is it a big tsunami?

"You don't care about the magic star, but I do. I don't want my brothers to die?" Shui Sheng said seriously. As for the rules of the town, he didn't even mention it.He knew very well that if he agreed to the stranger, the income this time would be enough for his brothers and sisters to spend their entire lives.

"I will also go with the boat, do you think I look like a short-lived person?" Ren Daoyuan chuckled, he used a little trick, the illusion drawn by the magic pen, has many uses, and this is just one of them.It is not very useful to deal with warriors, but it is surprisingly effective when used on the big boy chasing the sea in front of him.

Sure enough, Shui Sheng's gaze softened a lot, but the expression on his face kept changing, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"That broken boat of yours won't go far." After a long while, Shui Sheng gritted his teeth and said.He was right, the ship was too dilapidated, and if it wasn't so broken, it would have been impossible to sell it to foreigners.

To be honest, the person who sold the boat was simply cheating people. If not for this, he would not be able to sell the boat. He would not be able to pass the hurdle at the head of the town alone.

Fifty thousand gold coins to buy a broken ship, the lives of these outsiders are no better than their own, and even worse.He still remembered that when these people came here a few years ago, they were full of rich clothes and good food, and they could buy whatever they wanted. After two years, the money was almost exhausted.Now even if you want to buy it, you can't buy it, and Bingzhou people are xenophobic, but it's not just about reputation.

"Shuisheng, is there a way to get a boat? A big boat with more than [-] materials." Ren Daoyuan asked, although he had never seen the boat bought by the second manager, just from his introduction, he knew that the boat he bought might not be used at all. superior.
