Chapter 165 Water Compass

"This sea - it's so big!" Xi Tang sighed like this when she looked at the endless sea and sky.

In this situation, we have to mention the sigh of the tea fragrance again.

Wedding candy is the person who has no ink in his belly.

He searched his heart but did not come up with any literary words, so he could only use the simplest words to point out the theme.

No one could see her expression when Naza, who was still wearing a veil, looked at the sea, but her eyes were already lit.

Although Xitang was happy to see the sea for the first time, why didn’t Naza stand side by side with Xitang?

Nazha is the Weiwuer girl, and she even heard of the sea in their Weiwuer legend.

So much so that when she was sailing on the sea, she felt like she was dreaming.

"Look, birds!" She shouted in surprise at the flocks of birds following their ship.

"Well, birds, so many birds!" Xitang said.

However, when the two of them said this, the few guys who were busy on the deck of the ship burst out laughing.

Naza heard the smile.

Her intuition made her realize that she must have made a mistake, so she was laughing at herself.

Did she say it wrong? Naza thought in confusion, and then she looked at the birds flying along the boat.

The black wings were flapping in the air, the white belly was so white, and the pointed mouth was loud and loud, "Oh" and "Oh".

It can fly with wings, yes, it's a bird! But what are people laughing at? That thorn is confused.

No, I have to go and ask the bench! Naza turned around and walked into the room on the boat.

It was the second day that Shang Zhen and the others got on this sea boat.

The ship has been traveling south along the continental line for the past two days.

And the reason why they got on this big ship so quickly was naturally because they pretended to be the constable again.

At that time, they just lit the waist card and the iron ruler on the boat and said they wanted to check it out, so the people on the boat honestly put a springboard over.

Then, Shang Zhen and his team started to check on the ship and headed south.

What can the boatman say?

When Shang Zhen and the others got on the boat, the ship's family thought they were from Bai Dao, and that was the official officer.

But shortly after Shang Zhen and the others boarded the ship, Bai Yuchuan ordered their ship to mix with other big slings heading south!

The ship's crew also had countless experiences, so they inferred that Shang Zhen's identity as a constable seemed to be fake, and that was also a gangster.

But so what? There are two people who can't afford to offend, and those two cannot afford to offend are just black and white.

To say that their ship is a big ship is for Shang Zhen, who has rarely seen a ship, they said.

Although there are also "houses" on their boat that can make people stand up straight, the boatmen and friends on the boat added together and there were only more than a dozen people.

Even if the ship's crew concluded that Shang Zhen and the others were gangsters, more than a dozen of them would never risk their partner's death and fight against others!

The underworld, the outlaw, the thief, the bandits, and wait, the meaning is the same.

If Shang Zhen and the others were not trying to kill themselves for money and not pushing them to death, they would not be able to resist.

So despite the doubts, the ship's family just pretended not to know, and they only hoped to send away the three men and one woman four "little plague gods" safely.

The tie entered the room with confusion, and saw Shang Zhen lying on the table studying things.

There was an old man next to him, and the old man's surname was Cheng, who was the boss of this ship.

Although Naza didn't understand why those guys laughed, she could guess that she was not right and refused to show her timidity in front of the mature man.

She stopped asking and went to Shang Zhen to check it out.

The thing on the table is flat like a plate with a sunken middle.

The edge of the plate is very wide and flat, with heavenly stems, earthly branches, and Bagua, and a total of twenty-four directions.

And the depression in the middle was filled with water. There was a needle-like thing in the water that was penetrated by the lint velvet.

Shang Zhen gently pulled the fine needle with his fingertips, and the fine needle turned on the water surface in the sunken area.

After a moment, the needle stopped.

Naza didn't understand either. As the old man who was the boss of the ship, she still couldn't help asking.

Just because Shang Zhen had instructed her, listen more and ask less after getting on the boat. If you ask too much, people may see that our constable is a fake!

When Shang Zhen saw that the fine needle in the water stopped, he stretched out his fingers and fiddled it again, so the needle started to rotate again.

After a while, the needle naturally stopped again.

At this time, Nazha noticed that the needle was pointed at the direction that the needle was not changed as long as it stopped, and it was pointed to the north and south.

"Have you ever guessed what this is?" At this time, the mature man asked Shang Zhen with a smile.

"Water compass." Shang Zhen was still looking at the fine needles in the plate.

"Your Majesty, I heard that the accent of the official is from the northwest, and I even know the water compass!" Lao Chengtou said with a smile.

"The first one was called Si Nan, which was a spoon on a plate, and the water compass was later used. It was used to point the direction on the sea.

Wipe the two ends of the thin needle onto the magnet. Or put it in water and let it float, or hang it in the air with thin threads. Finally, the needle will point to the north and south." Shang Zhen said again.

"The official is really amazing!" This time, Lao Cheng praised sincerely.

Their ship is a sea ship, and often transports goods from north to south.

Although they always sail along the coastline, the ship will lose its direction when encountering a sudden storm, so this water compass is a must-have for navigation.

"Uncle, do you still have a magnetic needle?" Shang Zhen suddenly asked ignoring the mature compliment.

"I dare not let you call me this. I'm a grass-roots person, so there is naturally a magnetic needle." Lao Chengtou replied quickly.

The so-called magnetic needle is to place the two ends of an iron needle on a magnet and rub it repeatedly, and the iron needle will become magnetic.

Although people nowadays do not have the term "magnetization", it does not hinder the fact that it is true.

As long as there are iron needles and magnets, wouldn’t there be as many as possible?

"Then I'll give you the money and you sell me one." Shang Zhen said with a smile.

"Since the official wants to use a water compass, I'll give you one, how dare you bring any money?" the boss of the ship said hurriedly.

The boss of the boat is an old world. He thought to himself, what can I do if I give you a water compass? If I have a small boat, I can give it to you, as long as you leave.

"I don't want a water compass, it's better to have a magnetic needle." Shang Zhen said with a smile.

"Then you are waiting here, I'll find it for you." The boss of the boat said hurriedly.

Seeing that the boss of the boat had gone out, Nazha asked curiously: "Bench, why are you doing this?"

"It is easy to get lost at sea, and there are always times when it can be used." Shang Zhen replied.

After Naza nodded, he told the story of the guy outside who was laughing at him just now.

Shang Zhen smiled and said, "Of course it is right to say that it is a bird, but it is a gull. I have heard someone say it is called a seagull.

You just call it a singing bird, and when you hear it, you will know that you have never been to the beach.

I think we should get off the boat early, get some money and get our own boat.”

Shang Zhen was usually taciturn, but now that he had decided not to let Xitang make any decisions, his brain began to move.

Although he had only been on the boat for a day, Shang Zhen felt that the fake identities of these people had been discovered by the ship boss.

There is no other reason. When they boarded the boat, they thought the boat was big, but in fact the boat wasn't big.

After they came into contact with the Boss Boss in this small place, whether it was him, Xi Tangnaza or Bai Yuchuan, their original habits were difficult to change.

The habits he and Xitang developed in the mountains and fields looked more like bandits than officials.

For example, now like Naza, who is the official who doesn’t know that the seagulls have to call the seagulls birds?

Although Bai Yuchuan has a wide range of knowledge, that guy is a little out of tune. As soon as he got rid of the tracking of Jinyiwei, he looked so arrogant.

Bai Yuchuan disdained to stand with the wedding candy. The wedding candy was tied to the tip of the boat, and the people went to the bow of the boat.

Previously, Shang Zhen went to the bow of the boat and saw Bai Yuchuan.

Bai Yuchuan was standing on a wine barrel a half-height high in the bow of the boat, but was holding a fan in his left hand and holding a flute in his right hand.

That guy had a good impression of Shang Zhen. When he saw Shang Zhen coming, he even thought he was a mystery and asked Shang Zhen to guess the answer.

What could Shang Zhen guess when he asked in a daze?

In the end, Bai Yuchuan said proudly that the answer was "Yu Shu is in the Wind".

Shang Zhen laughed, neither sarcastic nor complimented.

However, Shang Zhen thought in his heart, you are still in the wind. If the wedding candy gets angry here, it may kick you into the sea and turn into a duck into the water!
