As soon as he stood on the deck, he could detect a strange scent coming along with the sea breeze. It seemed that something was burning. Gu Yun stood at the door and carefully distinguished the scent from the wind. He came to realize that it was the strange scent when Ziliujin mixed with impurities was burnt.

The 'merchant ship' slowly passed through the shallow water next to the small island. On both sides, there were two rows of 'Giant Dragons', these warships as bright as snow were lined up in a row, fully equipped with ammo. The merchant ships carrying the smuggled Ziliujin moved forward in a line, one after another, resembling a supply cart that ran among an army of thousands, not at all eye-catching.

Although Gu Yun couldn't see, he had already guessed what was going on from the sudden tension in the air.

With a crew of this scale, even if the Jiangnan Navy was present, they would not necessarily be able to confront them, let alone the few meager Eagle units he had brought with him.

At this time, a familiar person leaned over and silently reached out to touch him.

Except for Chang Geng, no other people did this. They either assisted him or didn't. No one had ever gone through these many steps.

Gu Yun felt that Chang Geng always appeared to be strangely tense whenever he was in front of him. He must always make his presence known to Gu Yun first in the slightest way possible. Gu Yun would then reach out his hand for Chang Geng to assist him; if not, Chang Geng absolutely would not make any other contact.

"Silly," Gu Yun held onto Chang Geng's arm, unhappily thinking to himself, "What is so nerve-wracking about being with me? Does a kinder father exist in this world than myself?"

Chang Geng quickly wrote in his hand: "There are at least hundreds of warships here, I am not sure if they are Giant Dragons..."

"They are," Gu Yun replied, "I could smell the Ziliujin."

Chang Geng: "..."

Didn't Liao Ran say that humans could not sense Ziliujin, that only inspection dogs could do it?

This ability of yifu... in fact, was not necessary.

Gu Yun secretly let out a sigh while complaining inside: "This is all thanks to your house-wrecking, small-hearted big brother. Had to kick me out to the distant Northwest to be able to feel safe. Now look at this, the old turtle in the garden lotus pond is transforming into a demon and is about to cook up a storm! Serves him right!"
