    Protecting Emperor Taiping's safety was also his duty to Lou Wuxin.  Although the Lou family has suffered unfair treatment in the imperial capital and has declined from a wealthy family to the current miserable state, the hope of restoring the innocence of the Lou family all lies in Emperor Taiping. Apart from this method, there is another way:  Lou Wuxin betrayed the Green Empire and avenged his family as a victor. However, the cost of this method was too high, and it would probably leave a bad name in history.  When Mr. Lou was still alive, his reputation was more important than his life. Even when Emperor Taiping ordered his family to be confiscated, Mr. Lou didn't even have the slightest resistance. He was willing to be killed and stained with blood.

    The collapse of the Lou family was the result of a conflict between forces within the imperial capital. The Lou family was just one of the forces that lost in such a conflict. Mr. Lou felt that his skills were inferior to others, so he never had any influence on the Green Empire until his death.  Even a hint of resentment.

    Lou Wuxin clearly remembers what Mr. Lou told him before he was executed: "Everyone in our Lou family is born to be a warrior, and it is only natural for a soldier to die in battle. Do not betray the empire at any time. The price of betrayal will be  None of us can afford it. Remember, remember!"

    It was precisely because Lou Wuxin kept Mr. Lou¡¯s words in mind that he did not turn against the empire after the Lou family suffered such a disaster.  And Emperor Taiping also seemed to feel guilty towards the Lou family. When Lou Wuxin reappeared in the imperial capital after surviving the catastrophe, he did not pursue Lou Wuxin's crime. Instead, he gave Lou Wuxin a chance to redeem himself and make meritorious service, and let him into the inner court again.  .  Anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is a meritorious service for a crime. This is just a step that Emperor Taiping found himself. He actually wanted to give Lou Wuxin some compensation, but because he is the supreme ruler of the empire, he cannot be responsible for what he has done.  Admit your mistake, that's why we are in this situation now.

    Gao Yingjie seems to be very relieved about Lou Wuxin, entrusting such a huge responsibility for the safety of Emperor Taiping to Lou Wuxin. Obviously, Gao Yingjie has more important things to deal with. In this current port, the most important thing is  It was nothing more than an impending storm.

    Lou Wuxin nodded to reassure Gao Yingjie that Emperor Taiping was tied to the innocence of his Lou family. Even if Emperor Taiping wanted to die, Lou Wuxin couldn't let him die like this.  He, Lou Wuxin, swore an oath in front of Mr. Lou's grave. He swore to regain the glory of the Lou family in the past. He swore to clean up all the officials who were hostile to his Lou family.  Moreover, we must use a legitimate method that will not leave a bad name in history, so that the Lou family can stand up again in the Green Empire.

    It¡¯s just that the environment has changed so quickly that it far exceeded Lou Wuxin¡¯s expectations.  After the earthquake caused by the Seven Stars Lianzhu, the empire was in the midst of employing people. Lou Wuxin thought he had found a good opportunity, but who knew that such a storm would suddenly come, and this storm would definitely affect him.  The grand plan to revitalize the Lou family.

    "Maybe this is God's will. God does not fulfill people's wishes. No matter how powerful Lou Wuxin is, he can't beat God.  Lou Wuxin sighed in his heart, how could he know that what he thought was God's will was caused by Zheng Qian.

    As the clouds in the sky became lower and lower, the waves began to roll on the surface of the East China Sea.  At first, there was no feeling at all as the waves pushed by the waves hit the chain-linked building boats. However, as the strong wind suddenly picked up, the clouds gathered, and the strong wind was mixed with large hailstones that rained down from the sky.  At this time, the connected buildings and ships seemed a bit insignificant in front of this natural creation.  At most, it's just like a larger wooden board floating on the surface of the East China Sea.

    Such a large wooden board made a thumping sound when it was smashed under the dense hail.

    Suddenly, on top of the chain-linked building ship, there was a burst of exclamations from the sailors.  Gao Yingjie immediately knew something was wrong.

    This hailstone was one of the few large hailstones he had ever seen. He encountered such bad weather a long time ago when the old man of the Gao family took him out to sea.  Gao Yingjie was only fifteen or sixteen years old at the time, and that hailstorm was a nightmare that Gao Yingjie would never forget in his life.  It was because of such a storm that the old man of the Gao family surrendered his life to the vast East China Sea.

    Gao Yingjie asked the old man of the Gao family, who is now the king of Wanghai City, why the Poseidon wanted to take the life of Mr. Gao. Mr. Gao smiled miserably and said, "Because your grandfather was a very outstanding sailor, so he was summoned by the Poseidon.  "

    When the storm first started, Gao Yingjie had an extremely ominous premonition. This premonition came from a conditioned reflex formed by his long years of dealing with the sea.  The sea is calm, but if this calm sea becomes angry, no matter who it is, no matter how powerful he is, as long as you are not a god, you will become a prisoner of the sea.  Poseidon is the highest god in the hearts of the children of the sea.

    Gao Yingjie's whole body glowed with light, thisThe light formed a protective film around him.  Hailstones as big as eggs hit this layer of light and were immediately bounced away, jumping and rolling away on the wide deck.  However, the hailstones were too dense. Although the light around Gao Yingjie protected him from injury, his forward speed was still somewhat affected.

    The direction Gao Yingjie was running to was exactly where the sailors exclaimed.  Something terrible must have happened there, otherwise, these sailors trained by his Gao family would not be so panicked.  The sailors Gao Yingjie brought out this time were the best in the entire Wanghai City.  They are all veteran sailors with rich experience who have had countless interactions with the East China Sea. Gao Yingjie has considerable trust in these sailors.

    Because this time Emperor Taiping went to sea in person, there was no room for sloppiness.  The Gao family cannot bear the crime of regicide.

    Braving the hail that fell intensively, Gao Yingjie jumped over several large ships and finally reached the one where the sailors exclaimed.  From a distance, Gao Yingjie could see the busy figures of the sailors constantly shuttled on the ship, accompanied by the constant shouts and shouts of these sailors.

    Dense hailstones fell down on the building and the ship, making a continuous thumping sound. The shouts of the sailors did not sound very real, but Gao Yingjie could clearly see that these sailors kept coming.  There was a look of panic on his face as he ran.

    Soon, Gao Yingjie rushed over. He took a closer look and discovered the source of the sailors' exclamation just now.

    On the deck of this building ship, a huge deep hole was exposed. The hole was wide enough for several people, and a cold and moist wind was constantly blowing upward from the opened hole.

    The material used to make the building boat itself is extremely hard. This type of building boat was originally intended for going out to sea. On the vast East China Sea, the situation is changing. Of course, the harder the material used to make the building boat, the better.  The materials used to make these building boats were an iron forest exclusively owned by the Gao family, a royal family in Wanghai City.

    Iron trees have always been famous for their toughness and are the best material for building ships. Wanghai City is adjacent to the sea. If you master such iron trees, you will have an absolute advantage in going to sea.  And all the ships going out to sea this time were personally selected by Gao Yingjie. The quality of the ships itself is beyond words.

    The force required to smash such a large hole in the deck of a building ship is extremely huge.

    Gao Yingjie judged from the position of the opening on the deck that below was the storeroom of the building ship. The storeroom contained the food and fresh water needed for going to sea that had been prepared in advance.  If this blow continues, the loss will probably not be small.  Food and fresh water are more valuable than gold in the vast East China Sea. Sometimes a little food and fresh water can mean saving lives.

    "How is the situation? Let's talk about the important things." Gao Yingjie asked a sailor who had already arrived and was about to report the situation.

    "Suddenly a huge hailstone fell from the sky and hit the ship directly. The storeroom below was destroyed."

    "Hail?" Gao Yingjie himself doubted whether it was hail, but he had never heard of hail breaking through the deck of a building.  Even in that storm many years ago, there was no hail that could break through the deck of a building ship.

    "Is it really caused by hail?"

    "Yes, among thousands of hailstones the size of eggs, such a big hailstone suddenly appeared." The sailor used his arms to indicate the size of the hailstone he saw at that time.

    Gao Yingjie's heart sank.  Hail smashing through the deck of a building ship means something extraordinary.  Ordinary hail, no matter how large it is, will immediately break into pieces if it hits the deck of a building, but this hail can actually make such a big hole in the deck.  Judging from the hail fragments hanging out of the hole, the hail was basically completely smashed into the storage room below the deck.

    It seems that the density and weight of this hailstone are very frightening.  Only hailstones harder than the iron tree from which the building ships are made could cause such an effect.  What kind of hail could this be?

    "How's the emergency repair going down there?"

    "There's water leaking down there."

    Gao Yingjie was shocked.  The hull of the building ship is very high, and the deck has offset part of the impact of the hail. In addition, the storage room has offset part of the impact of the hail. Moreover, the storage room below the deck is not one layer, but consists of several layers.  It can break through several layers of storage rooms, go straight to the bottom of the ship, and break the bottom of the ship. What kind of hail is this?

    Gao Yingjie no longer bothered to ask the sailor about the specific situation. He jumped straight down from the hole and fell towards the storage room below the deck.

    The storage room of Lou Chuan is divided into three floors, and each floor has a considerable space.  When Gao Yingjie jumped from the deck,With his own eyes, he saw a stacked hole that penetrated the three floors of storage rooms and ended at the bottom of the ship.

    The bottom of the boat is pouring water into the hull of the boat one by one.  There are constantly sailors busy trying to plug the hole in the bottom of the ship.

    Gao Yingjie's body fell vertically, straight to the bottom of the boat. When he was about to hit the ground, he turned over and landed on the wooden ladder leading to the bottom of the boat.

    In the lowermost space, seawater has flooded in to waist-deep.
