The meat of the electric eel is very tender, like tofu. The flavor of pickled plum juice soaks into the meat, plus the spiciness of chili pepper, it is sour and spicy. It is different from the deliciousness of steamed fish. The sour and spicy taste has a unique flavor.

Although the dishes were small, the portions were large. Everyone was full and enjoyed the afternoon sunshine with their belly full.

The villagers of Baixiang Village who stayed on the shore were like ants on a hot pot, very anxious and worried.

What should you do if you are worried about the dangers of going to sea for the first time?

Worry that they will not adapt to life on board, become seasick, worry that they will encounter storms, worry that they will lose their way, worry...

Everyone can rest, but Cheng Xiao cannot. He not only needs to master the navigation route and determine the direction, but also calculate the distance and wind speed, otherwise he will lose his way and cannot return.

Everyone on the deck did not rest for long. They took out their fishing nets and fish baskets and started working. The original purpose of building the ship was to be able to find islands, and on the other hand, it was to catch more seafood and increase the variety.

Just when the warehouse is full and ready to return.

"What's that black thing?"

"It hasn't moved. Is it an island?"

"What an island? It's such a small island. I'm afraid it will be submerged in a storm!"

"No matter what it is, let's drive over and take a look and we'll find out."

Everyone thinks about owning an island and building their own place, and their hearts get excited. They also look forward to seeing an island, an island that can accommodate people.

Lin Yue looked at the increasingly clear black spots but couldn't get excited. This place is too close to Lingnan. If Daqian is also equipped with a large number of ships, then an army will attack at any time, even if armed forces develop later. The power is not comparable to that of a country.

People here either study the Four Books and Five Classics or practice martial arts. The status of craftsmen is the lowest, and there is no serious inheritance or school.

The elder brothers have their scholarly character engraved in their bones, and there is no hope that they will be able to study artifacts instead. The nephews and nieces can still be trained to have both culture and technology, so that they can be safe.

And I don’t know if there are pirates now. They are a bunch of weak chickens and must not deliver food to the enemy.

"It's an island, it's an island. I saw green trees. Hahaha. We found the island for the first time when we went to sea. We are out of luck."

Although Chen Xiaoxiao didn't deal with Lin Yue, she had to admire her for letting everyone find the island and establish a family that would be passed down through the ages, so she was very excited.

"Don't be too happy too early. Maybe that island has been occupied by someone a long time ago, and it's still a very vicious island."

Li Dachui poured cold water on everyone who was excited, but he was not talking nonsense. He had heard the legend of the island before when he was a child. Moreover, it was too close to Lingnan, so there was a high chance that it would be occupied by the island.

"Pirates, Uncle Li, we can't be so unlucky to meet them!"

Of course Ruan Jingtian, the son of the Minister of Household Affairs, had heard from his father that there would be pirates raging along the coast, but he didn’t expect that there would be such a poor place like Lingnan!

Lin Yue simply walked to the main control room.

"Uncle Cheng, don't get too close to the island later. Go around the island first and see if there are any traces of people living on the island. There are dozens of us without weapons, and most of them are old, weak, women and children with no military value. It’s better to be careful.”

Cheng Xiao nodded in agreement. This place is too close to Lingnan. Even with a commercial passenger ship like the one in the river, it would take a day or two to get here.

"Don't worry, Girl Yue. If nothing else, I, Cheng, can still knock down a few people." Cheng Xiao showed off the muscles in his arms, showing that he was capable of protecting everyone in danger.

Close, close, the wild grass and trees, the primitive beauty, seem to tell everyone that there is no one here.

"Auntie, let's go there quickly!"

"I don't know how big this island is. I want to build a house by myself and live alone, so I don't have to listen to my grandma nagging me anymore."

Lin Daxuan dreamed of moving out and living alone. In the past few months, his grandparents basically kept an eye on him when they were free. Previously, they were urging him to find a wife and have children.

Since their fifth aunt passed away in childbirth, the two of them have not insisted on marrying a wife and having children. Now they stare at him all day long, ask him for help, and urge him to study. Every day when they have time, their grandfather, father and others come to give them lessons.

Now he is not as free as when he was in Kyoto, but the elders always think that he is about to become the head of a thousand-year-old family and cannot be without cultural heritage.

He was just fifteen years old when his rebellious spirit was strongest. The more his elders asked him to do something, the more he would oppose it. How could Lin Hongyuan, a pure ancient, know the term youth rebellious period.

Lin Yue glanced at him with a half-smile, "Let's go around the island first to see how big it is. Don't wait for a storm to submerge the entire island."

Lin Daxuan felt his aunt's gaze and touched his nose sheepishly. The mountains on this island seemed to be two to three kilometers high. How could they be directly submerged due to a storm?

Besides, the inhabitable islands are very large. How long does it take for their ship to make a complete circle? I'm afraid they may not be able to complete the circle tonight. Looking at half of the sky that is burning red, the sun is about to set.

"Seeing that the sun is setting, aunt, what are you waiting for? Let's get ashore quickly. We have been on the boat for a day, and I feel like I am floating."

"Yes, yes, Lin Yue, let's get down quickly. What danger can there be to so many of us?"

After most people get over the initial excitement and novelty of getting on the ship, boredom, fatigue, and various physical discomforts follow. Therefore, they can rest on the shore, even if they know the danger, they can't care so much.

From this direction, there are indeed no traces of human habitation. What we have to guard against at night are wild beasts. I have wisteria and wengtoubai on my hand. Wouldn't it be more appropriate to let them explore it.

"Okay, everyone, get ready to disembark!"

Lin Yue couldn't help the pleading looks of everyone, and thinking that she had the ability to protect them, she indulged everyone once. However, because of her temporary softness, she paid a huge price and escaped.

When Cheng Xiao heard that he was going to log in directly, he felt a little uneasy in his heart. He always felt that something was going to happen. However, looking at everyone's heartfelt smiles, he also understood how everyone felt at this time.

My legs were weak and I walked lightly, as if I was about to fly in the next second.

There is a beach in front of the island. The boat ran aground a few hundred meters away. There is no pier and no place to dock.

Lin Daxuan and Chen Chen had learned to tie the rope on the boat to a big tree or stone, otherwise the rising waves would take the boat away. They also built a ladder in advance to predict this situation in advance.

He grabbed the anchor rope on the boat and jumped directly into the sea, and swam hard to the coast. Several people who had received special training also entered the water one after another. (End of chapter)
