He nodded calmly.
"Okay, thank you, Brother Xu."
Pan Cheng nodded, handed the compass to him, then turned around and picked up the mop.
"I told you that you don't have to do such trivial things."
Xu Shi laughed and quickly pulled him back.
"you……"
"How about this? We actually have a lot of questions for you guys. The deck is a bit windy and unsafe. Why don't you come in and talk?"
Xu Shi quickly invited them in, "Like this compass, and your boat... My eldest lady was obsessed with it, and she didn't even sleep well last night."
"Is that right?"
Pan Cheng was stunned. "But I don't really understand these things... Xiaomei is in charge of these things on our ship. Should I ask her about these things?"
As he spoke, he called someone over.
"I'm Xiaomei, hello Captain Xu!"
Xu Shi then realized that this was actually a woman! Good fellow, he didn't pay much attention to the arrangements yesterday, and thought that Pan Cheng's fleet was full of men. This big and strong...
But I only wanted to talk to her about engineering and materials issues, so what she looks like is not important.
In a short while, Jiang Chengcheng and Xiaomei started a heated discussion.
Xia Wuyou also found a few people to discuss the "Sea God" issue that interested him.
As for Xu Shi, he held his lovely daughter in his arms and chatted with Pan Cheng.
"Brother Xu's daughter is so cute, much better than those two naughty kids at home."
Looking at Xia Ke'an who looked unhappy, Pan Cheng made a face like coaxing a child, "Why doesn't this kid like to smile... Did your father bully you?"
I think I did hear a baby crying last night, right...
The old lady had a sad face, there was no way she could be happy...but in order to maintain her persona, she still forced a smile and pulled the corners of her mouth.
Xu Shi was so happy that she wanted to die. Since you have chosen to be my daughter, you must be aware of it, old aunt!
"Children, if they are not beaten, they will not become useful."
He said perfunctorily, then looked at the gun on the other party's waist and changed the subject, "Speaking of which, conquering the sea god is a big deal, right? Brother Pan, are these the only weapons you brought?"
The surviving Silver Song Island crew members basically had one or two rifles each, but judging from their structures, it was clear that they were only matchlock rifles and flintlock rifles.
The only thing that attracted him was the ammunition equipped with these weapons. After identification, it turned out to be "Rust Mist" ammunition, but the manufacturing process was relatively crude. In terms of effectiveness, it might not be as good as the ordinary ammunition produced by Night Sin City.
Pan Cheng said that the ship was originally equipped with cannons, but even if all of them were combined, it was still not enough to deal with the aggressive school of fish.
"Not entirely. For this voyage, we also brought Axin with us. He is the only "chosen one" on the island who can control lightning."
Pan Cheng shook his head. "At the beginning, we were able to deal with those fish schools with his help. Who knew that such a situation would happen later? Ah Xin didn't survive... Alas."
"The Chosen One?"
This word caught Xu Shi's attention.
"Yeah, Brother Xu, don't you know?"
Pan Cheng asked back, "The Lord God's grace is spread all over the earth, and the people who are enlightened by him will gain his power... In fact, I am also a "chosen one". Here, look."
As he spoke, his muscles began to swell, and he instantly grew larger. It was obvious that he was specialized in either great strength or defense.
"...I know, but we call it differently there, so I didn't react for a moment."
Xu Shi nodded and found an excuse to get away with it.
In the City of Night Sin, they are the "Ascended Ones", and no one believes in God.
But to be honest, Pan Cheng's ability is average. There are similar people in Night Crime City, isn't Lei Song one? If I remember correctly, it's not even A-...
"Oh, I knew it. Brother Xu, your guard also looks like the Chosen One."
Lei Song expressed his understanding, and recalled Shen Qin's appearance yesterday and couldn't help but admire, "But her ability is much stronger than mine, I'm really envious... Alas, in fact, my ability is really useless, it just adds a few more strengths."
"As for Ah Xin, since Luo Yu's child, he is considered to have the most potential on Silver Pine Island. If he is trained well, he will definitely be able to go to the Holy See... It was my inconsiderateness that caused him to suffer..."
"Don't be sad, Uncle Pan."
Xia Ke'an took advantage of her status as a little loli and comforted him.
Xu Shi’s focus is different.
"Who is Luo Yu, Brother Pan?"
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 213 I learned it when I was , what about you?
Don't know why.
Although he knew nothing about this person, when he heard his name, Xu Shi subconsciously felt a strange reaction in his heart.
"Luo Yu... that's the pride of our Yinsong Island!"
Seeing that he seemed interested, Pan Cheng introduced it to him enthusiastically.
"He was an orphan on our island. We found him in a basket on the beach more than ten years ago. We didn't know who his parents were... Later, we discussed it and adopted him together."
Speaking of Luo Yu, the unhappiness on Pan Cheng's face immediately disappeared, "This kid is also very hardworking, with a quick mind and good physical strength. Everyone likes him very much."
"A few years later, he awakened as the "God's Chosen One", and he said that he would go out to make a living, and when he came back, he would already be the Silver Knight of the Imperial Bishop's Court!Hey, it really gives everyone a face..."
He talked a lot in a rapid succession, completely unaware of the subtle changes on Xu Shi's face.
Xu Shi was not in a hurry. After listening to him telling the whole story of Luo Yu, he felt a little more approving.
"He's only eighteen this year? That's really a promising young man."
He echoed the praise, "I wonder if I'll have the honor to meet him?"
This one is even smaller than Gu Yi, is this true?
So what were you doing when you were eighteen?
Oh, you learned how to drive an Impart? That's fine.
"That's what I mean. Brother Xu, if you want to see me, can I refuse you?"
Pan Cheng agreed immediately, "This kid said a few days ago that he would come back. You will definitely see him if you stay a few more days!"
"By the way, Brother Xu, you are also young and promising. You are of the same age, so there must be something to talk about..."
"Forget about people of the same age. I'm almost ten years older than him, and I'm not young anymore."
Xu Shi smiled modestly. In the blink of an eye, he was almost twenty-six years old... "But I am indeed looking forward to it. Thank you for your concern, Brother Pan."
How could I not look forward to it?
After chatting for a while, seeing that Jiang Chengcheng and Xia Wuyou were still chatting with the people from Yinsong Island, Xu Shi found an excuse and took Xia Ke'an away first.
"It feels like the bad dad has bad intentions towards me."
The old lady's vision was quite sharp, and she directly pointed out Xu Shi's thoughts.
"You can't say that."
Xu Shi tapped her forehead and said, "But this Luo Yu is probably the 'protagonist' of the Hualan Empire. How can I not pay attention to him?"
At least that's how he felt. Both his parents were dead, and he was young and promising. It seemed that he had some special abilities... Although Pan Cheng didn't explain clearly what the abilities were, this already fits the so-called protagonist framework.
And the strange movement in his heart... Maybe this is the legendary villain radar?
Xu Shi actually had an idea about this in his mind a long time ago. According to the information given by He Yuxia, no matter whether it was the Night Sin City or the Hualan Empire, neither experimental field would lack a "protagonist", or an appointed "savior".
This was originally what he planned to do after he found the New World, but he didn't expect that all of this was already in place before he arrived.
"So, good deeds will be rewarded, right?"
"Is this word too inappropriate to describe you?"
The white-haired loli teased.
"How are you talking to Daddy? Is your butt itchy again?"
"…I don't want to talk to you anymore."
Xia Ke'an curled his lips, "So, what are you planning to do?"
Should we treat Shen He the same way? To be honest, thinking of that person's experience, the old lady couldn't help shaking her head.
"My plan is to try to have a good talk with him first?"
Xu Shi thought for a moment and said, "No matter what, the 'protagonist' is also the most promising person in the experimental field. If we can unite with him, it will be a great help to us."
"Even if he's not, I heard from Pan Cheng that his so-called 'Silver Knight' identity is quite impressive. There are only twelve of them in the entire empire... It's never a bad thing to have a good relationship with such a person, right?"
Of course he knew what Xia Ke'an was thinking, but this was completely unnecessary. His main goal now was to overthrow "heavenly law". As long as he could maintain this premise, let alone a person, even a dog would be an ally.
Not to mention that there are no irreconcilable conflicts between us like there are between me and Shen He. We don't even know each other, so why would we want to harm others when we have nothing better to do?
"Of course, the necessary investigation must be done. If the other party has any bad intentions towards me, then I cannot stay."
Xu Shi added that this is another very important premise.
The old lady didn't comment, it was indeed the truth.
But thinking about the fact that the bad dad always calls himself a bad guy, if he is not right, he is the bad guy, the white-haired loli suddenly felt that her worries would not be unnecessary...
……
Yinsong Island was not too far from where they were. Xu Shi and his party arrived here in a day and a half.
"Your ship is really fast. It took us more than five days to get here..."
Pan Cheng was deeply moved by this and said, "Please wait for me for a moment, Brother Xu. I will go and talk to them about the situation first."
As the owner of the island, he was very thoughtful. He took his people down in a small boat first to prevent everyone from being frightened by the two huge ships.
Xu Shi was not in a hurry. He first directed the boat to dock smoothly in an orderly manner. After seeing Pan Cheng coming back with a group of people, he led everyone off the boat.
