Chapter 179
We had lunch at Master Jiang’s house, mainly because Master Jiang was too enthusiastic and people couldn’t refuse. Qiao Sheng and the others also took a look. It was just ordinary home-cooked food, two pickles, a stewed chicken and a stir-fried chili bacon.
While eating, I told Master Jiang that I wanted to build a boat for Wang Xiaohu. He was fifteen years old, and when he was older, he could drive the boat to catch some seafood nearby.
While there were more people, the boat could be built bigger, at least to meet the daily needs of their family of five.
When these words were spoken, Aunt Jiang and her two daughters did not react much, but Grandpa Jiang and his wife were very excited. This made Zi Qiaosheng and the others feel relieved. Obviously, this tomb-guarding family had rules. When Aunt Jiang was sent away, it was clear that it was wrong for these three people to come back now.
They planned for the future of the five-member family in this way, and it was considered to have exceeded the progress. In fact, when they brought Aunt Jiang and her two daughters to the island, the completion rate had reached 100%. Regarding
the wood, Grandpa Jiang said that the forest could be cut down a little bit. After all, people from the clan would come to check every few years, and too little would be suspected.
Considering that the materials for shipbuilding are just wood and plastic, Qiao Sheng, Meng Nannan, and Chi Jiu were arranged to go back to the boat to collect plastic with a colander, while Jiang Da Ye took Li Mu and other men into the forest to cut wood.
In fact, Qiao Sheng and Li Mu had a lot of wood and plastic in their storage boxes, but sometimes people can't show off their wealth, and they still have to be low-key when they need to be low-key.
It's okay to delay a little time to collect materials and build a ship with everyone. The goal is very clear, just for the reward.
This job is familiar. It took a day and a half to collect materials and two days to build the ship. It's not that they don't want to speed up. Jiang Da Ye and Wang Xiaohu are also helping. As soon as they speed up, the two doubt the safety of the ship.
There was no other way but to slow down. The two NPCs were not surprised when they used the construction hammer, and even thought it was reasonable.
After asking, they knew that there were some very powerful craftsmen who could build ships in a very short time.
After they took their time to build a two-story ship in two days, Jiang Da Ye's family stood on the shore and expressed their surprise. Wang Xiaohua even ran to the forest to pick flowers and gave them to Qiao Sheng and Meng Nannan to express her admiration.
Meng Nansen secretly muttered that they were the ones who did the work, so what did his sister have to do with it? Don't think he didn't know. In order to be lazy, his sister ran to Qiao Sheng's boat to chat and collect supplies. She didn't do much work, but she talked a lot. Later, the plastics she needed were all taken from his boat by Brother Mu.
They had done everything they could. Before they parted, Master Jiang helped them and gave them three boats, each with a gift. When Qiao Sheng took them, he could feel a sound of contact inside. It seemed that they were different.
He said goodbye to the Meng siblings and Shen Chen, pulled up the anchors and sailed the boats away from the shore, letting the boats drift freely on the sea.
Li Mu's wounds had all healed. Qiao Sheng had checked the wounds and they were intact. Although Li Mu had said countless times that his blood bar was full, he had eaten a lot of blood-replenishing food recently, and even his drinking water had become red date, wolfberry and brown sugar water.
When preparing dinner, Qiao Sheng was about to go upstairs to catch ducks and make duck blood. Li Mu, who had eaten several meals, immediately stopped her and begged her for a long time before finally letting her give up the idea of making duck blood.
After dinner, the two drank wolfberry water and opened the gift sent by Master Jiang, a square wooden box with three things in it. The first one was a badge.
[The Jiang family gravekeeper's family emblem: more than a hundred years of inheritance, symbolizing loyalty and sacrifice, can only be used once, can protect the entire ship from damage, lasts for 48 hours, and disappears after use.]
This thing is enough for them to escape, but it is a pity that it is disposable. You must think carefully before using it and don't waste it.
The second item was a square stone. The two checked the details and found out that it was the door-sealing stone in the tomb.
[The door-sealing stone of the tomb of the general of the state: protected by the general, carry it with you and turn bad luck into good luck.]
Qiao Sheng felt uncomfortable with the stone in the cemetery, but she couldn't resist Li Mu, so he stuffed it into her wrist bag. This reward looked very mysterious, but in this game, what the European emperor and the non-African are talking about is just metaphysics.
The last one is a compass, which is not very useful for Qiao Sheng's fourth-level ship. Li Mu directly received it in the bag. This thing is a bottom line for them. Once the coordinates fail, having a compass to identify the direction is much better than the previous random drift.
Meng Nannan also sent an email to Qiao Sheng at this time, discussing the reward given by Master Jiang. She had two different things, a compass and a door-sealing stone. Meng Nannan had already put the stone in a bag and hung it on her chest. She didn't believe it, but her brother believed it, so she just let him do it.
Li Mu also received the message from Shen Chen. He also had a door-sealing stone and a compass. Li Mu also said that he got the same two. However, among Shen Chen and his friends, only Chi Jiu believed in the role of the door-sealing stone. Shen Chen and Zheng Yinuo didn't believe it, so the thing was handed over to Chi Jiu.
"Master Jiang thinks that we contributed a lot of materials, so he gave us an extra clan emblem as compensation. The other two ships gave two rewards each, but we only got one more." Qiao Sheng took it and observed it for a while, then handed it to Li Mu to keep.
When Li Mu was thinking about whether it was safer to put the clan emblem in his bag or hang it on his chest, Qiao Sheng went to the system to ask for rewards. Although it was a three-star copy, they couldn't work in vain after working for a long time, and they still had to get the rewards they deserved.
When they got the copy reward, they saw that it was actually a title, [Cultural Relics Guardian: Strong Will, Attack Power Increased by 80, the title suffix, can be used with any title. 】
"This title has a pretty good effect, and it doesn't conflict with the previous title. It directly adds 80 points of attack, which feels pretty good. You said that we didn't dig any tombs, but we got the title of Cultural Relics Guardian. If we dig up the tomb of the general who governed the country, would we be called a tomb robber? Would we dig out some weird things?" Qiao Sheng thought about it in reverse, and suddenly felt that there was another possibility.
"Then we might have to confront Master Jiang. He is the tomb keeper. If we go to dig the grave, we have to defeat the tomb keeper first. Can you bear to beat the old man? It is very likely that after beating the old man, you will only get a reward like the tombstone. Other gold, silver and jewelry are of no value in this game. Even if you dig out a general, you can't get out of the tomb. It is also possible that wealth and wealth are sought in danger. What great rewards are there in the tomb? It can only be said that opportunities and risks coexist." Li Mu analyzed it seriously.
Qiao Sheng filled in the picture of them beating the old man in her mind, but forget it. Respecting the elderly and loving the young is a traditional virtue. The most important thing is that Master Jiang is a good person, and she can't bear to do it.
After adding the title, putting away the things, and taking a bath with hot water, although I have been working slack for the past two days, I have not been idle. I started working early in the morning and returned to the boat to rest late at night. I have no time to take a good bath. It is just right to take a hot bath to relax tonight.
As soon as the hot water was poured into the bathtub, a few monks lined up at the door of Li Mu's bathroom. They lined up very neatly. Qiao Sheng happened to pass by before entering the bathroom and almost laughed to death.
I really haven't bathed these guys recently, so I resigned myself to taking out the big bathtubs for them. Li Mu called them and started to scrub their fur.
The first one to be called in was Yousu, because he wasn't that dirty and just needed a quick wash. Then it was Ah Dai, who just needed to wipe his feathers, which was also very simple.
The last two, who were the dirtiest, gave Li Mu a hard time. Jiashazi and Xinxin were not only covered in mud and sand, but also in blood from injuries they had sustained a few days ago. Because of the wounds, they had not been cleaned before, and now their fur was all matted.
When Qiao Sheng came out of the bath, Li Mu was still cleaning their fur. He looked over and saw that the hot water, real fur, and blood in the basin were all mixed together, which made cleaning more difficult.
The monk's black clothes could be fooled, but Xinxin's skin was too light and it was too obvious that it was not clean. It was impossible to wash them with cold water. After all, they were cold and hot. They had lost too much blood before, and it would be even more troublesome if they caught a cold.
In the end, Qiao Sheng went to boil several pots of hot water and soaked and rubbed them. The knots were untied, but the blood stains were still not washed clean. Qiao Sheng shaved off all the blood-stained hair on their bodies and faced the aggrieved expressions of the bear and the lion.
Qiao Sheng said that it was not that she did not want to continue to help wash, it was indeed too difficult, wasn't there really no other way, she could only shave it all off and let it grow slowly, it was better than having blood stains on her body forever.
After a long explanation, the two minors were finally calmed down, You Su lay down beside the brazier, leaning on her wet hair, and then looked at the monks with a fool's eyes for a long time, and it was Qiao Sheng's eyes that stopped him, and You Su closed his eyes and continued to roast the hair.
"You Su almost exposed me. I just shaved the shaving bastard easily. I originally wanted to shave Xin Xin, but this guy did it himself. By the time I realized that he was black and there was no blood at all, the hair had been shaved. You didn't even remind me. How embarrassing." Qiao Sheng helped to take the bath water out and pour it out. "
I wanted to say it, but before I could say it, the shaving started. Let it react. We won't sleep tonight. It has been very troublesome recently. Now it suddenly feels that it's good to have a low IQ. If it is as smart as You Su, we will be in trouble." Li Mu said that she was innocent. It was just that her mouth was not as fast as her hands.
After taking a bath, I slept very well. The next morning, Qiao Sheng was woken up by Xia Beibei's emails. There were dozens of emails in a row, all complaining about Lin Haiyang's poor brain.
After reading them one by one, Qiao Sheng felt that the two were just happy enemies. This matter was simply ridiculous. It turned out that they also encountered the copy of Master Jiang. They did not choose to dig a grave. They also went to pick up Aunt Jiang and her three daughters. After picking up the people, the boat had already started. The two found that no one remembered the coordinates of Master Jiang's island.
Now they have been sailing on the sea for seven days. Wang Xiaohu has become irritable, and they haven't even seen the hair of Master Jiang's island.
Qiao Sheng roughly calculated that they should have encountered the copy earlier than he did. If only one person remembered the coordinates, they wouldn't have drifted for so many days to find the island.
During breakfast, Qiao Sheng also praised Li Mu for his good memory. Without any preface or postscript, he made Li Mu feel confused. When he found out what was going on, he could only shake his head. After all, he didn't remember the coordinates at the beginning, and it took him three tries to find the destination.
