I Am Xianfan
Chapter 311: Slave boats and boat passengers
At night.
The Aolai Fishing Port became more and more lively, and many traders in the city brought all kinds of goods to the fishing port, but they still couldn't fill the appetite of the giant sea boat. At night, the weather is cool and good for work, and the porters are busy transporting goods up and down the deck.
Suddenly, a group of dozens of sturdy men, like wolves and tigers, carrying swordsmen rushed to the port, driving away the busy porters and miscellaneous people near the big ship, not allowing them to approach.
Guanshi Li and Su Chen were on the deck of the sea ship, and they were also driven aside by these brave men.
Soon, on the giant sea-going ship, a chief steward in a brocade robe and several senior stewards were under the ship respectfully, waiting for the arrival of a distinguished guest.
In a short while, I saw an eight-carriage sedan chair carried by eight top-notch masters, arriving near the sea boat in the port.
"Little Zhou Da is in charge, welcome Dao Master. Cao Dong's family has to know that the master is going to go to sea with the ship, and is very pleased. The special villain waits to greet him. The owner has already set up a banquet on the ship to catch the Dao Master."
The chief executive hurriedly stepped forward to ask for peace.
There was a low and indifferent voice in the eight-carried sedan chair, "Don't talk about those useless, Lord, I have something to go to the distant sea. When will your ship set off?"
The old Taoist in the sedan chair who professed to be the Taoist master was obviously a little anxious.
He is not bystander, but the old Taoist You Fangge.
Since the battle of the Mithril Mine in Qingwu City, Ge Laodao and Fang Young have teamed up to deal with the young master Wei Zhuo of the Ten Thousand Beast Immortal Sect, and fled without a match. But Wei Zhuo died unexplainably.
After Wei Zhuo's death, Ten Thousand Beasts Immortal Sect has been tracking down the whereabouts of him and the young woman of the evil evil alliance, trying to find out the cause of the death of Young Sect Master.
Over the years, the Immortal Sect of Ten Thousand Beasts pursued him vigorously in the realm of cultivation, and even offered an astonishing price of up to fifty thousand spiritual stones.
Ge Laodao has been hiding in Tibet for many years in the middle-earth cultivating world. He is afraid of being betrayed and dare not show up easily. Going out is like a mortal wealthy businessman traveling on a sedan chair, but he still can't get rid of the hidden worries of the Ten Thousand Beast Immortal Sect.
This has seriously affected his cultivation, and he has made no progress for many years.
Although the Middle-earth Cultivation Realm is large, the wanted bounty offered by the Ten Thousand Beast Immortal Sect is too tempting. Fifty thousand pieces of spiritual stones were enough to make many immortal cultivators be moved, and sold his whereabouts to the Ten Thousand Beast Immortal Sect.
Thinking about going, only to go to the remote overseas Xiaoling islands outside the East China Sea to avoid disaster.
There are also islands for cultivating monks in the distant overseas, and they are not under the jurisdiction of the Middle-earth Immortal Realm, and the influence of the Immortal Sect of Ten Thousand Beasts is beyond the reach. Since the Middle-earth Cultivation Realm can't stay there, they have to go overseas to try their luck.
However, overseas cannot be reached by flying a foundation-building monk with a sword in a few days, and there is no place to stay in the middle of the journey. The remote sea route and unpredictable threats require a large sea boat.
Ge Laodao learned that in this remote Aolai fishing port, there is a private smuggling giant sea boat every year, going to the Far Sea Lingdao.
In order to avoid leaking his whereabouts, he must set off as soon as possible after he boarded the Shanghai ship.
"Tonight! Let's set off tonight! We are all on board, and we will wait for Master Dao to come! The owner ordered that we will set off as soon as Master Dao comes."
Manager Zhou Da quickly promised.
"Ok!"
In the sedan chair, the old Taoist priest was satisfied, and let the samurai carry the sedan chair onto the giant sea boat.
"Master Dao, please go upstairs. There are still a few distinguished guests on the boat. The owner is having a good chat with them, discussing and exchanging fairy skills. Dao Master is here, and it will be brilliant."
Chief Zhou Da personally escorted him to the top of the giant sea ship. There, Cao Dong's family hosted a banquet to entertain the monks and masters on the Juhai Ship.
...
Su Chen was on the side of the deck, hearing the voice of the old Taoist in the sedan chair, he was a little familiar. Seems familiar, but can't remember who it is for a while.
Su Chen didn't understand why he was a little familiar with such a character, and seemed to have dealt with him.
"To be able to win Cao Dong family's most trusted chief executive Zhou Da came out to greet him personally, the master in this sedan chair must be an immortal."
Guan Shi's expression was full of envy, and he sighed slightly.
Ordinary people rarely have the opportunity to deal with immortals.
But this huge sea ship is a rare exception, and every time it goes to sea, there must be more or less immortal cultivators who will carry this ship.
Of course, not everyone is qualified to talk to the fairies. Don't talk about him as a small manager, even if he is a senior manager. Only the director of Zhou Da next to Cao Dong's house is qualified to have a few words with the immortals.
Getting close to immortals will give you a chance to become immortal, but you may also have a chance to become immortal.
But a small manager like him basically has no hope of getting in touch with these immortals.
"Listen to the words of Chief Executive Zhou, you Cao Dongjia...is also an immortal?"
Su Chen was puzzled.
Guan Shi just nodded slightly, but didn't dare to say more about the boss.
This huge sea ship is thousands of feet long, which is dozens of times longer than an ordinary large sea ship. The keel used is made of extremely strong spirit wood on the distant sea spirit island, so that it can resist the strong winds and waves on the sea.
Ordinary Fanmu breaks as soon as it breaks, how can it be possible to build a long sea ship that is thousands of feet long.
How can ordinary people own such giant sea ships!
Moreover, Aolai Fishing Port is a remote port, not a large city. Some smuggled sea-going vessels all set off from here. The government also opened one eye and closed one, not daring to care about these shipowners with unusually strong backgrounds.
...
After Chief Zhou and the eight-carriage sedan were boarded on the sea-going ship, many sturdy men quickly retired and boarded the sea-going ship.
Aolai Port restored order and became lively again.
The stewards urged and let the porters load the cargo on the giant sea ship. It took an hour to carry the last remaining cargo to the Shanghai ship.
In the middle of the night, the giant sea-going ship was loaded with a lot of goods, and left the lively Aolai fishing port in the dark, slowly sailing to the sea, and sailing to the depths of the East China Sea.
After the Juhai Ship left, Aolai Fishing Port returned to silence.
Su Chen had only taken small boats in rivers and lakes before, and there were no storms.
After taking this huge ship out of the far sea, only then did I realize that the wind and waves in the depths of the sea are huge, and there is no wind and three feet of waves.
Especially when encountering a storm on the sea, waves of dozens of feet are coming surging.
The smaller merchant ship was like a flat leaf boat, and was overturned by a single wave. Only this kind of gigantic sea boat with a length of thousands of feet can sail against the wind and waves without being overturned by the waves.
From the ballast at the bottom to the top of the deck, the giant sea ship has nine floors of pavilions.
There are thousands of people on the ship, helmsman, boatman, cook, and clerk, living in separate cabins on all levels. The more high-rise lofts, the more nobles naturally can live.
Guan Shi's status in this giant sea ship is not high. He is just a small steward who does trivial matters such as miscellaneous bookkeeping and can only live on the lower three floors.
There are no windows on the lower three floors, only a small shop, the air is very stuffy and crowded.
Su Chen was a ship-guard warrior recruited by Guanshi Li. The monthly salary of ten taels of silver was the treatment of a low-level warrior. Naturally, he can only live in the lower three floors of the cabin, which is stuffy and muddy and airtight.
Su Chen didn't mind this too much.
He is a warrior of the ship, staying on the middle and lower third decks during the day to walk back and forth to prevent people on board from provoking troubles, fighting, and fighting. He will only be under the cabin when he sleeps at night.
However, when he rested in the middle of the night, he always faintly heard some flogging, cursing, and wailing, coming from the bottom ballast cabin.
After half a month, Su Chen couldn't help it, and came to the bottom ballast cabin in the middle of the night.
He opened the hatch and entered the bottom compartment, and was shocked to find that the rock-pressing chamber was divided into cells with iron bars. Thousands of slaves were crushed in darkness and detained in these iron bars.
Most of this group of slaves were middle-aged men, and there were also a small number of old women and children, or dressed up in brocade clothes, or poor people or farmers, all shackled by chains, and wailed incessantly.
"This hero, help!"
When the slaves saw Su Chen coming in, they suddenly cried out for help.
Under the cabin, several guards of the swordsmen were awakened by the voice of the slaves. They saw a young man rushing into the bottom cabin. They could not help but sternly warned, telling Su Chen not to be nosy.
Manager Li woke up in the middle of the night and found that Su Chen was not on his boat berth. He was taken aback. He hurried over to hear the noise of the bottom cabin, and quickly apologized to the swordsmen, and dragged Su Chen away.
Su Chen followed Manager Li back to the third floor of the cabin.
He was just a little puzzled. Although Datang Zhongtu had slave status, the crying people in front of him were not like slaves. They seemed to be kidnapped people who were trafficked in private.
"Anyway, the ship has gone to sea, and you will see it in the future. I will tell you the truth, this giant sea ship is not an ordinary cargo ship. This is a smuggling ship, and the most important thing is slave trade. Cao Dong's family is in the far sea. On a small spirit island, that is a well-known big man. There is a spirit mine under his hand. These slaves were trafficked for mining in the past. Many mine slaves died in the mine every year, and a batch of past supplementary manpower was shipped every year."
"Doing this, no one dares to manage?"
Su Chen's heart trembled.
Only then did he know that this was a giant slave ship. No wonder, he saw Aolai Port, where the coarse grains of little value were transported to the giant sea ship by hundreds of thousands of hungers.
Guan Shi lowered his voice, "Who dares to take care of this. On this ship alone, there are ten qi-refining immortals who go to sea to protect the ship. Not to mention that Cao Dong's own is a Zhuji immortal, and there are some scattered people who go to sea with the ship. Fairies ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ They all live on the top floor, but we little people can't see it.
Dare to stop Cao Dong's earning money from mining, that is definitely a dead end. You must never get out of the cabin to take care of those slaves, or you will cause trouble, brother, I can't keep you. Maybe you will be locked in.
The ship will sail for more than a year, and the days on the sea are boring. Every month, there is an ascension party on the ship. Cao Dong’s family will take out a bowl of spiritual rice to stimulate the morale of the crew. I will take you to see the excitement in a few days.
If you can get the reward of a bowl of spiritual rice, tusk, maybe you can become a Qi-refining immortal, then you will be the luck of immortality, and the ancestral grave will be smoked! "
With that, Guan Shi couldn't help but swallowed his saliva, looking forward to the promotion meeting in a few days.
