The Journey of the Infinite Wizard

In ancient times, there was the Suez Canal. However, as time went by, the waterway of the Suez Canal was gradually filled with sand. Since then, the Suez Canal has officially disappeared from people's sight. It was not until modern times that this canal was opened in the hands of the French.

a far-reaching canal

, so that when European countries reach the East, they no longer need to go around the Cape of Good Hope, but can go directly from the Mediterranean to the East via the Suez Canal. During this period, I don’t know how much manpower and material resources were saved, but also because of the opening of the Suez Canal, it accelerated the colonization of Western colonies in Asia

speed.

However, in this barbaric medieval era, the Suez Canal naturally disappeared.

On this day, the Egyptians under the rule of the Fatimid dynasty were busy working for their livelihood as usual. Port Said, which was extremely prosperous in later generations, has no shadow at all. The world-famous port in Egypt today is Alexandria. Countries

Many maritime merchants came to Egypt to do business, and Alexandria was a must-go place for them.

Today, a huge fleet sails straight from the Mediterranean Sea to Egypt. The flag hanging on the ship is a pattern that even an ignorant person can recognize. It is the flag representing the Tang Dynasty. At the center of the mast,

The flag representing the royal family is hoisted. On the bow and the ship

At the stern, the country's national flag and naval ensign were hoisted. In the center of this huge fleet was an extremely huge ship. Today, this giant ship is completely different from what it was back then. It has masts erected on it and white sails.

.It is sailing forward slowly at a slow speed.

As it gradually approached the land of the Fatimid dynasty, the huge naval fleet began to speed up, with densely packed, fully armed soldiers standing on the deck. They silently looked at the land in front of them, and as the fleet accelerated forward, it finally stopped offshore.

.a name

The heavily armed soldiers jumped off the boat one after another, splashing into big waves. They stepped on the sea sand with their feet, took steps, and struggled forward with the seawater almost up to their waists. In a short time, there were densely packed and huge numbers of soldiers.

The army was assembled on the shore.

"What are you doing?" Lu Duan stood at the bow of the Ark, watching the densely packed elite army of no less than 10,000 people landing, feeling a little strange in his heart.

The Tang general accompanying the escort smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Lu. In addition to escorting you this time, we have another important reason."

"oh?"

The general smiled and said, "It is to completely seize this gateway to the Red Sea and control it in our hands." Lu Duan naturally did not understand, and he asked doubtfully, "Why is this?" He looked at the land in front of him.

, "This is still uninhabited, it is a barbaric land, and its value is not as good as your country's land. I wonder why your country wants to risk military disasters to compete for other countries' territories?"

The general said: "Mr. Lu doesn't know the specific reason. Our Majesty is determined to seize this place. The purpose is to build a canal and open up the Red Sea channel. At that time, our merchant ships can directly enter the Red Sea from the Mediterranean Sea, and then enter the ocean, crossing close to Guizhou."

That strait of your country, reach your territory and conduct direct trade with your country.”

Lu Duan was shocked after hearing this, and then realized that once the canal was opened, the Tang people would have huge trade profits. Moreover, the canal would also be a vital transportation artery. However, in this way, this

Countries from outside the region will also be able to reach China directly. This worry was immediately abandoned by Lu Duan, who

He believed that although there were many countries outside the territory, none of them could travel thousands of miles across the sea to conquer the outside world. Moreover, he was not worried about the military affairs of the Song Dynasty. Although there was a lack of horses, it was facing the north. Once it reached the south, it would be

In a world where nothing can be done, once the northern nomads dismount, the Central Plains dynasty will beat them up every minute.

However, Lu Duan also realized that once the canal was opened, although it would be able to command enviable trade profits, it would also be a powder keg, and various disputes would inevitably surround the canal in the future.

"Once the canal is opened, it will have far-reaching influence, but at the same time, the canal will also become the target of conquest by various countries. Aren't you worried that once the canal is opened, various countries will compete with each other?"

"Hahaha." After hearing this, the general laughed loudly.

Lu Duan frowned, "Why is the general laughing?"

"Mr. Lu, have you never heard of our country's national guardian beast after staying in our country for so long?"

"This is nonsense, how can it be taken seriously?" Lu Duan naturally disdained to talk about this. When he thought about it, the so-called sacred beasts that protected the country were nothing more than some rare and exotic beasts.

What can it be used for?

The general naturally did not argue with him and smiled without answering. Then Lu Duan felt the giant boat under his feet move slightly. He felt very strange in his heart because he had never felt any bumps during his journey.

The sea is not as calm as dead water. The sea is flowing all the time. The ups and downs of the waves are one high and one low, and the boat traveling on it is also constantly rising and falling with the sea water. Those who are not familiar with the nature of water and have been here recently

Of course I can't stand the bumps along the way.

However, Lu Duan did not feel any bumps on this giant boat. It was as if he were on flat ground. This was the most comfortable moment since he traveled thousands of miles to the Tang Dynasty as an envoy.

However, now, this huge boat, which was as stable as land, was shaking a little. This made Lu Duan extremely curious and at the same time a little panicked, "Could it be that the hull of the boat was flooded?"

Just when he was thinking this, another incident on the sea attracted all his attention. All he saw was that on the undulating sea, large waves and bubbles suddenly surged up, and right before him

When you look at it carefully and don’t know the reason, then it’s not

The water splashes and bubbles that kept spewing out were accompanied by the sudden explosion of the sea surface, flying in all directions. Lu Duan, who was caught off guard, was suddenly startled. At this moment, a melodious dragon roar sounded. Lu Duan looked at it,

His mouth opened wide in shock.

What did he see? An extremely huge dragon head rose from the bottom of the sea, with blood-red eyes, sharp dragon horns extending toward the back of its head, and a beard beside its mouth, shaking off endless waves. Then, the dragon suddenly rose from the bottom of the sea.

Jumping out, a huge and slender body, like a snake, kept jumping out of the water from the bottom of the sea, followed by a pair of huge things that looked like wings.

And as this huge dragon rushed out of the sea, with the melodious roar of the dragon, the roar of its fleshy wings, its wings that covered the sky and the dragon's body that was winding and flying in the sky, Lv

Duan completely lost his soul. He looked at the giant dragon flying in the sky with dazzled eyes. At this moment, he saw that the huge dragon head seemed to be a phantom, and two more appeared on the left and right sides of the dragon head.

A faucet!

"Ying...Yinglong!"

This three-headed dragon that keeps flying in the sky, making bursts of dragon roars, and its pair of feather-covered wings that cover the sky and the sun, are almost similar to the winged dragons recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas. That is what should be done.

Dragon. The only difference from Yinglong is that it has three heads. Other than that, the dragon head, body and claws are almost identical.

"I never thought that a certain overseas group would not only see such a rare country in the world, but also have the chance to see Yinglong's figure. Lu Duan died without regrets!" He was dazzled and looked at the three heads in the sky in great shock.

'Yinglong''s mood at this moment is simply difficult to describe in any words. This time his

The mission of the visit was not only successful, but also perfect. First, he recorded for the Song Dynasty monarchs and ministers a book on travels to the Tang Dynasty, which contained all aspects of the Tang people's deeds. Later, he brought 60,000 tall and majestic war horses to the Song Dynasty.

Any one of them is enough for him to be promoted to an official position, to honor his ancestors, and to leave his name in history.

And now, after meeting 'Ying Long' who had helped Emperor Xuanyuan defeat Chi You, Lu Duan felt that it was worthwhile to be able to do what he did.
