The grass in the factory should be plucked

Xie Changan turned to Yuan Shouhe and said, "General Yuan, please send a patrol boat to take us to the outer edge of the Ryukyu Trench."

When Yuan Shouhe heard that they were going to dive into the sea to find out what was going on, he was so scared that he shook his head again and again: "Absolutely not! The prince and the duke are worth millions of gold, how can you put yourself in danger?"

"The Ryukyu Trench is windy and turbulent, and the water is unfathomable. Experienced sailors have to be extremely careful when sailing through here. Do you two still want to go out to sea?!"

He glanced at the petite Prince Jing'an and thought that although one cannot judge a person by appearance, such a delicate and lively little beauty, no matter how powerful her martial arts skills were, would be swept away by the waves once she entered the sea, right?

Jiang Li smiled and said, "General Yuan, have you forgotten that we still have dragons?"

Yuan Shouhe suddenly realized, yes, they also have the Dragon God!

"Are you sure, Lord Long?"

He was still a little nervous. Even if these two were immortals banished to the mortal world, they were still in mortal bodies!

The Jiaolong is not a real dragon!

If something happens to Prince Jing'an and Duke Dingguo in his territory, considering how favored Prince Jing'an is, he probably won't have a chance to survive!

Jiang Li said: "Although this is also Brother Jiao's first time in the sea, Jiaolong is naturally able to intimidate sea creatures. With its help, we can retreat safely."

Xie Changan also said: "General Yuan, rest assured, since the two of us dare to go to sea, we must have ways to protect ourselves."

Yuan Shouhe had no choice but to agree.

He sent out a patrol boat, two Cangshan boats, and selected a group of soldiers with excellent swimming skills to accompany Jiang Li and Xie Changan to the Ryukyu Trench.

Jiang Li then called on Xiaoou and other seabirds to board the patrol boat, and notified the dragon through the contract to follow. Under Yuan Shouhe's worried gaze, this small fleet set sail.

Jiang Li now had some free time to take a good look at the warships of the Great Chu Dynasty.

Accompanying them on the voyage was a battle-hardened naval commander named Han Xiang.

He introduced these warships to Jiang Li and Xie Changan one by one.

"The Fujian Navy has a total of 1,350 warships, the largest of which is called the 'Fuchuan'. The ship our Admiral Yuan was aboard just now was the Fuchuan No. 2."

"This ship is three stories high and can accommodate a hundred people. It has a cannon at the bow, six red cannons, twenty small cannons, sixty flamethrowers, ten muskets, and ten gunpowder crossbows..."

Jiang Li was very interested: "What about Fuchuan No. 1? Is it bigger?"

Han Xiang said: "Yes, Fuchuan No. 1 is five stories high and can accommodate 500 people. Its firepower is twice that of No. 2. However, the hull is too heavy and the draft is too deep, so its maneuverability is poor. It is usually moored in the dock and will not be easily started unless there is a major battle."

Jiang Li smiled and said, "If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely go and see it."

Han Xiang added: "The patrol boat we are on is also called Fuchuan No. 3. It is two stories high and can accommodate fifty people. It is equipped with four red cannons, ten muskets, fifty spray guns, eighty smoke cans, and six fire crossbows..."

The Cangshan ship is the smallest warship in the fleet. It is light and agile, mainly used for chasing enemies or taking enemy heads. It can accommodate thirty people and has half the weapons and equipment of the patrol boat.

Xie Changan nodded: "General Yuan is very thoughtful."

They were going to search for the missing fleet, not to fight, so naturally they couldn't go in a large and ostentatious manner.

Han Xiang ordered his soldiers to collect the flags of the Fujian Navy and set sail towards the Ryukyu Trench.

According to Han Xiang, it would still take two or three days to reach the Ryukyu Trench from here at full speed, so Jiang Li and the others returned to the cabin to rest.

Jiang Li was lying on the bed, communicating with the dragon in the sea through a contract.

"Brother Jiao, how do you feel about coming to the sea?"

She thought of a question: if a dragon has been living in fresh water such as rivers, lakes, etc. and suddenly comes to the sea, can it adapt to the environment?

The dragon laughed and said, "I am so happy! It seems like I was born to be here!"

When it first entered the sea, it swam freely in the boundless sea and felt extremely happy.

The sense of familiarity engraved in its bones made it feel like it had returned to the womb, making it feel very relaxed. It just wanted to lie lazily in the water, rising and falling with the waves.

Jiang Li said: "Brother Jiao, although the sea is calm now, you still need to be alert. The sea is full of dangers, so don't take it lightly."

She told Jiaolong what Haiyan had discovered. "It is said that the sea surface of the trench we are going to is foggy and the magnetic field on the seabed is abnormal. The reason is unknown. Brother Jiao must be vigilant!"

The dragon was horrified: "Okay, fairy, don't worry, I will be careful everywhere and will never hold you back!"

Jiang Li was a little worried. If she had known there might be a formation, she would have brought Fat Rat with her.

Although it didn't understand much, at least it had copied so many large formations, and it could tell at a glance whether there were any traces of formations.

Xie Changan glanced at her and said, "If your rat didn't drown after entering the sea, it would be scared to death."

Jiang Li sighed: "Brother Mo Qi is not here either."

Otherwise, you can let him take a look at it!

Mo Qillang went to survey the terrain in preparation for building the large project of "Diverting Water from South to North". He was too busy to return to Beijing during the New Year, and naturally he could not go out to sea with them.

Xie Changan said: "Don't you always say 'one force can defeat ten skills'? It's a good opportunity to test and see how your husband's swordsmanship is going."

Jiang Li's eyes sparkled: "That's right, with a swordsman like you, why should we be afraid of his formation? Brother Chang'an can break all formations with one sword!"

Xie Changan held her in his arms with tenderness in his eyes: "Have a good rest, otherwise your consciousness will not be able to support it."

"it is good."

Jiang Li buried her little face in his arms and soon fell asleep sweetly.

Xie Changan tucked in the quilt for her, but he himself felt completely sleepless.

In this operation, they need to use their spiritual sense to protect themselves throughout the process and dive into the unfathomable seabed.

If the abnormal magnetic field in the Ryukyu Trench is caused by the formation, we might even come into conflict with the person who set up the formation!

When he was in the East Factory, he fabricated the identity of Jiang Li as "a disciple of the overseas Penglai Island". Although he made up the sect named "Penglai Island", he had also heard that there were many talented people and hermits overseas.

This man was able to set up such a large formation on the seabed. I wonder how profound his cultivation must be?

Will they be a match for this man?

Two days later, Han Xiang came to inform them that the Ryukyu Trench was not far ahead.

"Your Majesty, Duke, there is a foggy sea ahead. Our ship can't go any further."

Xie Changan said: "Okay, let's go up to the deck and take a look."

The flock of birds had already told them that the place with the strange magnetic field was about ten nautical miles ahead.

The flocks of little gulls, as well as Hurricane and North Wind, all landed on the boat and did not dare to fly freely in the sea for fear of getting lost.

They came to the deck, and Jiang Li and the other man took the telescope handed over by Han Xiang. They looked closely and saw a vast expanse of white fog in the distance, which seemed endless and too thick to dissolve.

The ships sailing on the sea all avoided this area far away, so there was not a single merchant ship or fishing boat within a radius of dozens of miles.

It was a sunny day with a calm sea, but that area of ​​the sea was shrouded in thick fog. Anyone could see that this was not normal!
