《Disciple, Don't Cause Trouble, Master Won't Leave the Mountain!》Chapter 113: The Eve of the Storm
Advertisement
What Qin Xiaoxi said made sense, but whether it was the Snowmen tribe of the Northern Region or the Sea Demon Clan mentioned by the old man, they were far more ferocious than the ferocious beasts outside of Thunder City. Even Jiang Yun had never encountered them, let alone know how to deal with these demons.
At this moment, the sea was still calm. The scorching noon sun shone in every corner. Through the window, the surface of the sea under the scorching sun was sparkling, as countless crystals had been placed into it. The reflected light made Qin Xiaoxi a little dizzy.
Jiang Yun put the last mouthful of the griddle cake into his mouth.
He didn't know how his three disciples were doing now.
For some reason, he was actually a little worried this time. He was worried that Kong Li and Xiong Ji would do something impulsive again. Xiong Ji was easier to deal with, but if added with Kong Li, Yu Sisi might not be able to stop them.
"Aren't you going to eat some?" Jiang Yun noticed Qin Xiaoxi, who was suddenly silent. She was staring blankly at the griddle cakes on the table.
"I.. ."
"Oh, right." Jiang Yun took out his storage bag and took out a box of packed salted vegetables and steamed corn bread.
If Qin Xiaoxi was not mistaken, it was what they had eaten in the inn this morning.
Qin Xiaoxi didn't eat much because she was in a hurry.
"I think you might like this more than the griddle cakes." Jiang Yun smiled and placed them in front of Qin Xiaoxi.
"You even packed them?" Qin Xiaoxi looked at Jiang Yun in shock.
"Yes, eat it." From how she looked in the morning, Jiang Yun guessed that she had not have enough of them to her heart's content. To be honest, the griddle cakes in the black market were really flat and insipid, "You eat well. I'm going back to continue steering and see if the direction has shifted."

Qin Xiaoxi nodded. After saying this, Jiang Yun clapped his hands and stood up. Then, he walked out of the cabin.
Jiang Yun opened the compass. Along the way, the coastline behind him finally disappeared from Jiang Yun's sight. The surrounding scenery had turned into an endless sea. Even the reefs and small islands had disappeared without a trace.
It was hard to imagine how the boatmen would be able to find the direction they wanted to head in without a compass in the boundless sea .
"It really is a vast ocean."
Just as Jiang Yun was still thinking, Qin Xiaoxi's voice came from behind him. She watched as Jiang Yun continuously adjusted the rudder of the boat in slight margins. The boat moved up and down along with the waves, but its speed was not as fast as when it had just set sail.
Jiang Yun stretched out his hand to feel the wind again.
After noon, the Sun became more and more intense. The southerly wind that was originally blowing had also become indistinct at this moment. Sometimes, one could not even feel a trace of it.
"Yes... so it's not hard to imagine that many boatmen have lost their way here." Jiang Yun steadied the rudder.
"I think that the people who went out to sea and never returned might not have been swallowed by tsunamis. Most of the time, they might have gotten lost in this vast ocean."
Qin Xiaoxi walked to the side of the boat's railing and felt the comfort brought by the sea breeze.
"What's wrong? You haven't experienced this for a long time? I remember that you need to go by water to get to Sakura Valley from Thunder City."
Jiang Yun said with a faint smile.
"It's been a long time. Besides..." It was only more than ten miles to get from Thunder City to Sakura Valley by water. However, this time was different. She was going to sail on this endless sea for another week. If one had to sail on this sea for a week, one would probably be lost.

The following two days of sailing were very smooth. Although the scorching Sun during noon usually caused a wave of heat, there was still a southerly wind accompanying them every morning. Jiang Yun's ship would often ride the wind and waves moving forward at these times.
But in the end, this was only the calm before the storm.
The more it was like this, the more Jiang Yun's worries grew.
Everything was too calm, so calm that it didn't even make sense.
Even though it was already past the typhoon season, the tranquility of this sea was too terrifying.
And following the two days of voyage, Jiang Yun and Qin Xiaoxi also clearly discovered that the originally blue sea had gradually turned into an eerie black color. It looked as if they were sailing in a sea of demons.
It seemed that the depth of the sea was very deep.
The deeper they went into the sea, the calmer the surroundings became.
After Jiang Yun taught Qin Xiaoxi how to steer the ship, he and Qin Xiaoxi took turns steering the ship. During the day, Qin Xiaoxi would steer the ship, and at night, they would exchange positions. On one hand, considering that regarding the matter of steering the ship, Qin Xiaoxi might not have much confidence to sail at night, nor could she make a quick judgment in an emergency. On the other hand, it was also because Jiang Yun wanted Qin Xiaoxi to retain a certain amount of energy so that she would have enough energy to find the Holy Saint Snow Ganoderma.
After Jiang Yun gave some more instructions, he returned to the cabin. For convenience, he did not go down to the the cabin at the bottom. Instead, he spread a pile of licorice by the foot of the table. Then, he fell asleep. After looking after the rudder for two consecutive nights, Jiang Yun was clearly in low spirits, but fortunately, the spiritual power in his body had a certain degree of conditioning effect on him, so it was not particularly unbearable. As long as he had a good sleep in the afternoon, everything would be back to normal.
Qin Xiaoxi, who was controlling the rudder, also yawned.
After looking at the endless, pitch-black sea for two days in a row, she was obviously a little visually tired.
She had thought that the journey to get the Holy Saint Snow Ganoderma would be extremely dangerous, but she had not expected that they had not even seen a single fish so far. They were just like a numb machine, slowly sailing towards the other side of the seemingly endless sea.
The scorching sun after noon was a little dazzling. Qin Xiaoxi opened the compass to confirm the direction once again. She then found a place where the sunlight would not easily shine on and sat down to rest.

Doctor Who: An Alternate Sequel Series
An alternate sequel to the original Doctor Who series (1963-1989) This is set in an alternate universe to the 21st century Doctor Who and features an alternate 9-13th Doctors. These Doctors will be based on different actors (or rather characters the actors are known for playing,) whose images will be used to represent them. The 9th Doctor will be based on Irish actor Dylan Moran, the 10th Doctor will be based on Tim Curry, whilst the 11th Doctor will be based on Robert Carlyle. The 12th Doctor will be based on Julian Barratt, whilst the 13th Doctor will be based on Julian Richings. I decided to make my Doctor Who fanfic series an alternate sequel as I wanted to match the classic era in tone and style more. The 21st century DW is still canon however. It is simply an alternate universe. Some stories will feature alternate versions of 21st Centruy Who characters. The Doctor from the 21st Century Who universe will also crossover into my universe at some point too. This way I can keep what I like from both the original and revival, whilst creating my own Doctors. Each story will feature a different Doctor, and they will all be at random points in their lives, though as time goes on I do intend to build up my own continuity and history.
