When the time comes to leave the port, then everything will be under my own command, and I will drive directly to Tanglin Island.
After finishing the calculation in his mind, Du Wenkai quietly put away the map and went to find his father Du Leiming.
When he came to Du Leiming's study, Du Wenkai said straight to the point: "Father, I need a family boat to take me out to sea."
"What are you doing at sea?" Du Leiming's eyes widened in surprise, looking at the child in front of him. Since he was young, this child has been fishing in the offshore at most, and he has never said that he wants to go to sea in such a serious manner.
"I recently obtained a new strange flower seed, and the effect is very good. It needs the blood of some kind of monster in the sea to irrigate." Du Wenkai had already made a draft in his heart, so his expression did not change at the moment.
"Can't we just send people to hunt?" Du Leiming said.
"No, even if the hunt is successful, the blood will dry up after the capture, so I have to go there in person. After the hunt is successful, I will find an island and cultivate it on the island." Du Wenkai said quickly.
Du Leiming lowered his head and pondered, the sea is not as dangerous as the mainland, and now such a gardener has finally appeared in the family, so there is no room for loss.
"Father, this strange flower is really important to me." Du Wenkai was afraid that his father would disagree, so he quickly persuaded him.
"Okay, but you must bring enough people to ensure your safety." Du Leiming raised his head, looked straight into his son's eyes, and said.
"Okay." Du Wenkai quickly agreed, "Then I'll bring Uncle Xu with me."
The Uncle Xu mentioned by Du Wenkai is named Xu Guangyuan. He is the only Tier [-] warrior in the Du family besides his uncle and his father and three brothers. He is also of the water attribute and has certain advantages in the sea.
"Well, that's fine. When do you decide to go?"
"The sooner the better."
"So urgent?" Du Leiming was a little surprised.
Are you not in a hurry? The mission only lasts three days. Counting from last night, we will reach Tangling Island the day after tomorrow. Otherwise, even if the mission fails, it will be too difficult for me, Du Wenkai thought to himself.
"Go back and pack up. We will set off in the afternoon and use the Dawn." Du Leiming thought for a while and said.
The Aurora is the only three-masted sailing ship in the family, fast and heavy.
"Okay." With this assurance, Du Wenkai felt more at ease, bid farewell to his father, he went back to pack his things, and contacted people at the same time.
First of all, you must bring Jingru and Mantou. The former has a strong sense of danger, while the latter has a keen sense of smell.There is also Chen Junhao, this is an old friend, he has fought side by side with Du Wenkai many times, the two can cooperate tacitly, and Xu Guangyuan also wants to say hello first, so that there will be trouble later.
Du Wenkai was not very familiar with the others, so he could only ask Uncle Xu to help him find some manpower. The first point was to adapt to the rough seas, so don’t bring them if you have symptoms of seasickness.
Du Wenkai basically had nothing to prepare, and basically all his belongings were in the ring, but he still went to the vegetable market to buy some fresh vegetables and grains, and stuffed the two rings to the brim, so as not to be caught at sea. What an accident.
Although it only takes five or six days to go back and forth, there are no dangers on the island, so it is best to be careful.
After everything was ready, a group of people assembled at the gate of the Du mansion after lunch. Including Du Wenkai, there were 17 people in total, the lowest being [-]th-level warriors, and [-]rd-level warriors sitting in command, plus the monster named Mantou , the overall combat effectiveness is extremely good.
A group of people set off to the port of Du Mansion in Donghai City, and saw a large ship from a distance, with a length of more than 100 meters and a width of about 15 meters. It looked like a giant sea monster, quite powerful.
"Fourth young master, you are here. I am Jack the captain of this trip." A man in his 50s greeted him. He had dark skin and wore a black one-eyed mask. The skin on his face was wrinkled like a flower. chrysanthemum.
Du Wenkai and his group have no experience in going to sea, so they naturally need captains and sailors, which Du Lei will take over tomorrow morning.
"Let's go, get on the boat, and set off as soon as possible." Du Wenkai said lightly, and then walked onto the boat.
In addition to Jack, there are more than 30 sailors, all waiting on board.
"Sail, set sail!" After everyone got on the boat, Jack was the last one to get on the boat. He shouted with a rich voice, and the voice spread far away.
The sailors hung up the sails, and the Dawn slowly sailed into Donghai City.Du Wenkai stood on the deck, feeling the sea breeze blowing in front of him, not knowing what kind of danger would be waiting for him ahead.
"Fourth young master, do you know the destination of our trip?" Captain Jack came over and asked respectfully, he knew that this trip was to help the fourth young master.
Du Wenkai had already prepared, he took out a map from the ring, pointed to Dongling Island and said, "Go to this place."
"Okay." Jack agreed with a smile. Although Tanglin Island is not close to here, he has already made preparations for the long voyage.For a man who has made a living on boats since he was a child, coming to the sea is like coming home.
"Woof!" Mantou came to the edge of the cabin, looking at the blue sea, he was not afraid at all, and let the sea breeze blow his hair tousle.
"We must always be careful and try our best to protect the safety of the fourth young master. The sea is not as dangerous as the land. It is much more dangerous." Xu Guangyuan whispered in Chen Junhao's ear.
Xu Guangyuan is a middle-aged man in his 40s. Years of practicing martial arts makes him look powerful and good at using a sword. There is a thick layer of calluses on the tiger's mouth of his right hand, and he is a proficient in the wave sword technique.
"Understood, Lord Xu." Chen Junhao glanced at Du Wenkai's back and said in a low voice.
In the afternoon, Du Wenkai did not return to the room, but stayed on the deck, watching the scenery of the sea.The sun slowly set from the west and sank into the sea level, reflecting the sea water red, which was very beautiful.
Seeing this, Du Wenkai unconsciously thought of the movie Titanic that he saw in his previous life. Coincidentally, the leading actor in it was also named Jack.
"How many miles have you traveled?" Du Wenkai asked Captain Jack.
"Fifty miles away, fourth young master." Captain Jack said respectfully, he had no intention of underestimating this young master who was only 11 years old.Not to mention that this is the most famous gardener in the history of Donghai City, those few inventions alone have brought huge profits to the family.
Du Wenkai nodded and traveled fifty miles in four hours. If he continued at this speed, as long as there were no accidents on the road, there would be no problem in arriving at Donglin in the afternoon the day after tomorrow.
"How do you judge the distance traveled?" Du Wenkai asked jokingly when he was idle and bored.
"It's not easy, as long as we make a rough inference based on the small islands we passed by, we can guess how far we have traveled."
