Chapter 240 Land Civilization and Marine Civilization

The fear of the sea has existed since ancient times. In our culture, it has always been a typical land civilized country that fears more than respects.

There are few records of the sea in history books, which proves that the weight of sea samples in production and life is very small and almost negligible.

Even those who seek life on the coast are trembling every time they go out to sea, and most of the time they move near the sea. When they go out of the sea, they seem to be gambling with their lives. When sailors are regarded as a low-key career that they will only engage in when they are desperate.

What Song Chen is doing now is a good thing. He wants to make the Chinese nation pay more attention to the sea several centuries in advance. This is the competition for the world stage in the future. It is always impossible to make early preparations.

Song Chen knew little or very much about modern ocean waterlogging. He knew that in ancient my country, there were few marine activities and the sea's fishery resources were very rich, but he suffered from the limited experience tools. The most important thing was concepts and did not benefit much from it.

Now he has a ship that can catch whales. Although there is no Javeliner, he has a divine arm crossbow.

Tian Xiaobao also asked someone to customize a stronger, more solid, convenient and durable fishing net.

Today is the day to go to sea. According to the calendar, this day is not a good day. Song Chen originally wanted to compromise and choose a "good day".

But Song Chen didn't believe in these things. Besides, the sea was too mysterious and he really had to choose a day. Of course, it was not these good men and women who chose auspicious days according to the old calendar, but they had to look at the sky and find the time when the sea had the best temper. Unfortunately, Song Chen didn't know much about predicting the weather.

Since we can't calculate the weather, we can only look at the sea and see if there is no typhoon or something to go out to sea. As for whether it is accurate or not, we have to look at the sky.

Of course, he is still very confident in the new sailboat he designed, believing that it can withstand the test of strong winds and waves.

A group of soldiers wanted to go to sea to worship the gods. Song Chen originally planned to compromise. It was a kind of demeanor to follow the habits of most people, but later Song Chen changed his mind.

The Chinese nation respects the sea too much and treats it as a god. The sailors also pay many taboos on the boat, such as sinking and drowning, and in the end they cannot even speak out those homophones with it, otherwise they will rise up and attack them.

Song Chen suspected that this "fear more than respect" sentiment has always prevented the ancestors from exploring the sea, which is also an important reason why modern China lags behind Western powers.

Think about the sailors of Europa, they are often ungodly, even against the sky and the earth, but they are fearless and have a strong desire to conquer the sea, which ultimately kicked off the age of great navigation.

Later, Song Chen changed the sailor's military laws and eliminated this custom from the institutional level. However, his behavior caused a lot of confusion, even private criticism.

However, Song Chen didn't care. Although his original intention was not to turn his soldiers into people who did not believe in God, he would rather choose the former when he did not believe in God and was afraid of the sea.

"Let's go out to sea!" Song Chen shouted.

Now it is a good wind, the boat is very fast, and it is running towards the distant sea. The crowds of people who are seeing each other at the port are getting smaller and smaller. In the end, it becomes a line and eventually disappears.

Song Chen only had a slight impression that in this month, there were more fishing catches in this sea area and it was a large fishing ground in later generations.

At night, he put away his sails. Song Chen sat on the deck and admired the night of the sea. He looked at the starry sky and thought a lot.

It was a quiet night, the tranquility before the storm.

A strong wind blew, and heavy rain started to roar.

"Grandma, why am I so unlucky!" Song Chen raised his middle finger at Dahai.

The ship began to shake violently.

Song Chen immediately shaking the bell, which was the sound of entering combat state and a warning from the storm.

They have practiced these emergencies, and each Marines quickly entered the state and completed their responsibilities in an orderly manner.

The waves are getting bigger and bigger, and from time to time, waves hit the boat, and a lot of water accumulates. The cabin must be closed, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.

Song Chen called out three people to drain the water outside and the others inside.

People on the deck are even more dangerous. They will roll people down with a wave, but Song Chen still appears on the deck. He must stand on the most dangerous line, set an example and boost morale.

Picking up the pipe, Song Chen turned on the manual drainage machine and kept shaking it, so that the sea water that rushed onto the boat would be discharged continuously.

Finally, after everyone's efforts, the accumulated water was basically discharged.

The sea finally returned to peace, and even a mirage appeared in the distance, which was really a magnificent picture.

I don’t know who called out fish, but they saw a bunch of fish densely packed on the sea. It was so unimaginable that people with intensive phobia might not even dare to look at it.

At this time, everyone no longer hesitated. Everyone came out to go out and went down the net. Most of these fish were tuna, and they were not cheap even in ancient times, and the price was the same as mutton.

In the past few days, I have been hit by at least tens of thousands of kilograms of fish, and everyone’s faces are smiling, and everyone’s salary is linked to the catch, so of course I am happy.

Their sailboats were not set up for fishing, and there were not many storage places. Now they are basically piled up with fish in every place. Everyone thinks that this trip to the sea has a very good harvest.

He sat on the deck, but was a little listless because he had a trouble, that was, the boat full of sea fish was full of fishy smell, and he had no way to stay in the cabin, so he had to stay on the deck.

At this moment, he saw a fountain suddenly appearing on the sea, which turned out to be a white whale.

"Get the divine arm crossbow!" Song Chen shouted, and the other crew members also came out.

Everyone saw a big fish that was more than ten meters long squirting water on the sea. Even people who were seeking a living in the sea rarely saw them because this big fish rarely appeared near the sea.

Song Chen came to pull it himself and shot it at the big fish. He had prepared for his whale hunting. The divine crossbow requires two strong men to pull it. It doesn't matter. He just needs to be responsible for aiming.

"Quick, it may be sinking!" Song Chen shouted.

Twisted the divine arm crossbow, aimed at the big whale, and shot it at the big whale with an arrow, directly shooting it into the head.

Later, they were left to others, and they shot three arrows in a row and hit the vital point. They actually hunted a big whale again.
