Chapter 292 Going to Sea

Chapter 292 Going to sea

In this world, offshore navigation is easier than in Xue Mu's world in ancient times.

One is because everyone is very strong in cultivation, and even the wind and waves like the offshore sea cannot break through the Qi shield. Even if they are overturned, as long as they are not too far away, most of us can make it back on our own.

Secondly, this ship is a bit science fiction.

It was just a small boat, only a few meters wide and a dozen meters long. It didn't even need a sail, and it was going very fast. Sitting on the bow, Xue Mu felt as steady as the ground. Moreover, the ship still has mechanical power to sail. It only has a rudder on the bow to control the direction; it even has a shield mechanism to deal with wind and waves. It is full of science.

Xue Mu studied the power core for a long time, only seeing various strange-shaped stones and formations, and had no idea what the principle was. In short, it was probably difficult for steam engines to make a difference in this world.

There were only three people going to sea, Xue Mu, Zhuo Qingqing and Xiao Qingwu. Long Xiaozhao was left in Tianxiang Tower to recuperate. The place was easy to find anyway, so there was no need for him to lead the way. Of course, Xue Mu also had his own thoughts. He took two girls out to sea, which was a feast for the eyes. What was going on with a man with a swollen face sitting next to him...

But out of the sea, Xue Mu immediately discovered that he was not bringing two girls, because one of them never came out after entering the cabin, making people doubt whether she existed. Sitting outside the cabin with him and watching the sea view was still his personal guard commander Zhuo Qingqing.

"Young Master looks at the sea, his expression remains unchanged. Could it be that he has seen it before?"

"Hmm..." Xue Mu knew why Zhuo Qingqing asked. Anyone who sees the sea for the first time will definitely be shocked by the vastness of the sea and the sky. And he had no reaction, nor did he feel seasick. He had naturally seen the sea and felt the feeling of riding the wind and waves.

Zhuo Qingqing was sitting on the bow of the boat, facing the sea breeze. Her hair was flying back, and a few strands of messy hair were blown by the wind and stuck to her face. Her eyes were slightly squinted, a little lazy, a little leisurely, and a bit mature. Come. Xue Mu turned his head and looked for a while, then pursed his lips and looked back at the sky.

As if she felt that Xue Mu was peeking at her, Zhuo Qingqing smiled slightly, stretched out her hand to tuck her messy hair behind her ears, and said lightly: "Why do you have to come in person to see the mine? I want to take the opportunity to confront Xiao Qingwu." Are you going to do it? If you go in now, she is so helpless that she is at the mercy of the young master."

"It has nothing to do with her. I have no feelings for her." Xue Mu sighed softly: "It's because there are... many things in this world that I am very curious about. If possible, I would like to travel all over the world to see it with my own eyes. It's rare to see this with my own eyes. The weather is calm, but I'm afraid the world will be in chaos in the future, and I won't have much time to be willful."

Zhuo Qingqing stared at him for a long time and said softly: "I was supposed to accompany the young master to fight in the wine shop, but Qingqing still neglected his duty very much."

"You did a good job." Xue Mu smiled: "It's because the opponent is always too high-end, and there's nothing we can do about it."

Zhuo Qingqing smiled and said: "Is it because I think so much that the young master doesn't even feel the beauty in front of me? It's not like the man I know who even dares to flirt with the sect leader, even dares to stare at Xiahou Di's long legs, even Even Mu Jianli, who is admittedly boring, is full of interest."

Xue Mu laughed: "Because there are already a lot of beauties around me, how can I still be as excited about everything as before. And this woman... tsk, weird."

"What's wrong?"

"She should be an autistic person who doesn't trust people very much, but it feels like she has a lot of trust in me. This way, she won't be afraid of anything from me when she goes out to sea with me. She also cooperates with me to answer Lao Zhou with a little bit of evil in her belly. Then It made me feel like Xiaochan for a moment.”

Zhuo Qingqing smiled and said: "Young Master is getting more and more suspicious now. I see, she has been saved by Young Master several times, so she naturally trusts him."

"Maybe." Xue Mu lay down lazily, resting his head on his hands, and said leisurely: "It's rare to have leisure, and I'm too lazy to think too much."

Zhuo Qingqing hesitated for a moment, moved over slightly, put his head on her lap, then gently combed his hair, and whispered: "Young Master's hair is getting longer and longer. It was like a monk at first, but now it can Tie up your hair. Mu Jianli and Zhu Chenyao really don’t know how to take care of others, and they don’t know how to tie it up for the young master and let it hang loose."

Xue Mu opened his eyes and looked at her gentle gaze, and murmured: "Then help me tie it up."

Zhuo Qingqing pursed her lips and looked away: "That's what the people in the room did. You go find them yourself."

Xue Mu opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end nothing came out.

…

Although the speed of the unscientific ship is fast, the journey of nearly a thousand miles cannot be reached in a few hours. Before we knew it, the sun set into the sea and the wind and waves began to get a bit strong. Xue Mu opened the outer shield of the ship and went into the cabin with Zhuo Qingqing to rest.

The boat is not divided into rooms, just one big cabin. Xiao Qingwu was sitting in the cabin, reading a book with a luminous pearl hanging in front of her. Seeing Xue Mu come in, he was slightly flustered, but when he saw Zhuo Qingqing was still following him, his expression returned to calm, and he just quietly hid the book back in the ring.

Xue Mu sat down on the edge of the cabin and asked casually: "What book are you reading?"

Xiao Qingwu bit her lower lip, feeling embarrassed to say that she was reading Xue Mu's book and had read it countless times. After murmuring for a long time, he finally managed to say: "I heard that Mr. Xue is a famous storyteller in the world. I wonder if there will be any new works in the near future?"

"Do you like reading?" Xue Mu smiled: "That's right, I'm a homegirl... I'll give this to you to pass the time."

As he spoke, he took out a set of "Journey to the West" from the ring and threw it over. Recently, Wanzang Bookstore has been working overtime to print daily newspapers, which has occupied the production capacity of printing "Journey to the West". So far, only a few hundred sets have not been released. What Xue Mu has in hand is a sample book, which can be considered a self-collection.

"The Legend of the White-Haired Witch" is already the only tome in this world, and this is another tome. Xiao Qingwu looked at the signature of "San Hao Xue Sheng", his eyes were a little straight, and he couldn't hide his ecstasy: "Manager Xue is really a genius. I thought "The Legend of the White-haired Witch" was the best in the world, but unexpectedly there is a new work."

The words finally slipped out of his mouth, and Xue Mu heard it: "I said... don't tell me that you are a fan of my books."

"Ah..." Xiao Qingwu's face turned red and she said nothing.

Zhuo Qingqing looked sideways at Xue Mu, and Xue Mu also looked back with some embarrassment. This time, both of them realized the origin of the fragrance that Wei Ye judged. This is actually Miyoshi Xue Sheng's fan girl, who would have thought of it before?

There is more meaning in Zhuo Qingqing's eyes. Isn't it obvious that you, Manager Xue, can be defeated with just a few sweet words? Let’s see if you still say you’re not interested.

Xue Mu twitched the corner of his mouth and whispered: "I'm not a fan, thank you."

Zhuo Qingqing didn't understand what grass fans were, but she could guess at least 80 or 90% based on the situation. She suddenly felt a little dazed... In fact, all the personal guards, including herself, could be considered grass fans if he wanted to. , because the guards really admire him. Especially in the past two days, Li Xiaorui, who was overly excited to be a reporter, looked like a god to our young master, and the fanatical light in his eyes was almost like that of a fanatical believer.

No matter how much of a book lover Xiao Qingwu is, he's not to this extent.

Xiao Qingwu's face was so red that she almost bled. In the heart of a girl who has lacked interpersonal communication for a long time, saying I like your book can be completely equated with saying I like you, just like the Jianghu heroine said I admire a certain chivalrous man for his majestic sword and majestic hair. What else is that not a confession?

Although the girl felt strange in her heart, she felt that it was of a different nature... But on the surface, it was indeed a confession, so she always collected the book in a panic when she saw Xue Mu, but it was still exposed after all.

I thought that a well-known romantic figure like Xue Mu would take the opportunity to make some teasing remarks, but unexpectedly Xue Mu remained silent for a long time and whispered: "Whether it is "The Legend of the White-haired Witch" or "Journey to the West", people who are worthy of admiration It's not me, I can't be proud of myself."

Xiao Qingwu raised his head in astonishment and saw that Xue Mu seemed to be very serious. The girl couldn't help but argue: "General Manager Xue... Even if he doesn't like Qing Wu, there is no need to be so arrogant."

Does this mean that even the author of the masterpiece in my heart is not allowed to be tarnished? Xue Mu suddenly felt that this girl was cute. He shook his head and smiled: "You misunderstood. Let's put it this way, if you want to admire me, you might as well praise me for opening a door in this world. From then on, the world's masterpieces will come one after another."
