Chapter 859: Outsmarting Sharks
After a long journey of ten days, Bai Feng finally arrived at the place pointed by Yang Biao's map.
This place is rarely populated, and most of the place is jungle.
In fact, since heading east from Langya, there are basically no human eyes left.
During the Three Kingdoms period, people actually did not like being near the sea.
They only have fear and awe of the ocean.
The whale is even called a dragon.
Therefore, the common people do not like to be close to the sea. The most they can do is to get some seawater to dry and make salt.
After all, salt in ancient times was very valuable. These sea salts can be made without spending any money or much effort.
However, they have no way to refine it.
Although this sea salt is edible, it tastes very strange.
After all, sea salt contains not only salt, but also various other substances.
To be honest, there are many cases of eating dead people.
The enemies that Bai Feng and Lingju Qin Liangyu encountered the most nowadays were actually wild beasts.
Since there are no people in the mountain forest, it has become a paradise for wild animals.
Wild wolves, wild tigers and other wild beasts emerge in endlessly.
These beasts are extremely agile, but they are not faster than the bows and arrows of Bai Feng and Qin Liangyu.
The three of them stumbled along the way, and finally arrived at the coast that Yang Biao mentioned.
Sure enough, there were many boats parked here.
There are about a dozen ships.
However, it looks like a very simple sailing ship with nothing special about it.
Bai Feng couldn't even imagine how he could reach the Central Plains from Yamatai in this almost shabby boat.
However, what Bai Feng needs to do now is to use the materials exchanged from the system mall to find a pretty good ship for modification.
Qin Liangyu and Lingju have very strong hands-on skills. After Bai Feng's simple teaching, they understood how to operate.
The first and most important thing is to replace the sail.
All these boats have one big sail.
This is actually very unstable.
Whenever it encounters strong winds and waves, it is very likely to turn over.
The sails exchanged by Bai Feng must be installed together with the mast, transom, stabilizer, rudder, etc.
In this way, you can make full use of the wind power to move forward.
If it takes these Yamatai assassins a full month to come to the Central Plains.
After modifying the ship in this way, the speed can be increased by at least half and the stability can be increased by more than ten times.
It takes about twenty days to reach Yamatai Country.
This is already very good.
In fact, in modern times, it takes about a week to travel to Japan by boat.
However, this is in the case of sea transportation, which will be faster if the number of people is small.
Moreover, Bai Feng chose the shortest route, so the speed would be faster.
It probably took Bai Feng a whole day to rebuild the ship.
After that, Bai Feng will face the first big difficulty.
Head to Yamatai from the sea.
This level is something Bai Feng cannot avoid no matter what.
During the Three Kingdoms period, there were no large ships.
Moreover, if the big ship docks, it will be easily discovered by the people of Yamatai.
What Bai Feng wants to do is to try to avoid attracting the attention of the people of Yamatai.
Even if you want to land, you have to find a sparsely populated place to land.
As for food, there is no need to worry, and Bai Feng also prepared a lot of citrus.
If you don't eat citrus for a long time at sea, you will definitely get sepsis.
"Here, eat a few first."
Bai Feng controlled the course according to the compass, and took out a few tangerines from the space ring and handed them to Lingju and Qin Liangyu.
When the two heard this, although they were a little confused, they still ate it in one bite.
One advantage of this space ring is that the food stored in it will not be destroyed no matter what.
Even if you leave a tangerine inside for thirty years, it will still look the same when you take it out.
With such stable storage, it does bring a lot of convenience to Bai Feng.
The two million worth of reputation was well spent.
Just as Bai Feng and others were moving forward smoothly.
Suddenly, Lingju narrowed his eyes, looked into the distance, and whispered:
"Sir, what is that?"
Bai Feng was looking down at the compass when he heard Lingju's call and quickly looked in the direction she was pointing.
A triangular thing is approaching me quickly!
This is...the dorsal fin of a shark!
Bai Feng suddenly narrowed his eyes.
shark!
This thing can be said to be the biggest killer in the ocean.
Sharks are the apex predators in the sea, possessing extraordinary senses and rapid attack power.
Although sharks are actually not very interested in humans, that is when they are full.
Judging from the ferocious speed of this shark rushing here.
Obviously, this guy is hungry!
It sensed the existence of a living creature, so it rushed over at such a fast speed!
Lingju and Qin Liangyu had never seen a shark before, and their hearts suddenly skipped a beat.
Judging from Bai Feng's reaction, you can tell that this guy is definitely not easy to mess with!
"Sir, watch me kill it with one arrow!"
Although Qin Liangyu was scared, he still kept calm and prepared to bend his bow and set up an arrow.
Bai Feng shook his head heavily and quickly stopped Qin Liangyu's behavior:
"No!"
"If you kill it, the smell of blood will only attract more sharks!"
Qin Liangyu could only worry at this time.
Only then did she clearly realize how fragile humans are in front of the ocean.
At this time, the effect of the shark repellent that Bai Feng exchanged for 5,000 reputation points was demonstrated.
The main ingredient in shark repellent is actually copper acetate.
The principle is to simulate the smell of a dead shark to keep other sharks away from the source of the smell and suppress their desire to prey.
Sharks have an extremely sensitive sense of smell and can easily detect this smell.
Shark repellents are not 100% sure to repel sharks.
But this is given by the system after all.
The so-called system products must be high-quality products.
It is clearly written on the redemption interface that it can perfectly drive away sharks.
Therefore, Bai Feng reluctantly bought a few packs for self-defense.
After all, fighting head-on with sharks is not a wise move.
If the smell of blood attracts more sharks, it will really be more of a loss than a gain.
Sure enough, the shark repellent fully exerted its effect.
The shark stopped rapidly just as it was about to approach Bai Feng's ship.
It only stopped for more than ten seconds and then left quickly.
At this time, Lingju and Qin Liangyu breathed a sigh of relief.
Although I don't know what method Bai Feng used, he escaped this disaster after all.
Bai Feng did not stop and continued to rush as fast as possible to Yamatai Country.
