The Teak ship's rudder is delicate and warm, and the moment she puts her hand on it, an mysterious power blends into her body like a breeze.
Upon arriving in this new world, the first thing she encountered was the hornwood dragon, and the first thing that came to her mind was also the hornwood dragon.
This is her boat!
Teak ship's rudder is the hornwood dragon's ship steering device, and it has the same function as a car steering wheel. When operating it, it's also similar to driving a car on land.
Keep your eyes forward, do not bow your head to look at the helm, and once you have determined the general direction, you must precisely control the rudder within the target degree accuracy. Be careful not to abrupt reverse the rudder, causing the bow of the ship to swing frequently.
Hornwood dragon is one of the most excellent merchant ships in this era, and its driving cabin is equipped with an array method. When the array method is activated, it can realize a function similar to automatic driving, maintaining a constant forward direction.
But at this moment, a steady forward progress is just what turns them into the outside monster's lunch meat.
When the monster was knocking and banging outside the cockpit, trying to come in, Zheng He saw it walking to the left side of the ship's cabin and shouted, "Be careful!"
Old Wen noticed what she was about to do from her movements, and without a word, he tightened the seats in the cabin.
Zheng He tightly gripped the helm, her gaze straight ahead at the sea, as she rode the Hornwood Dragon, just like a Huns king holding his swift horse's lower jaw on the grasslands, reining in that fierce steed that only she could tame.
Wave heads hit, full rudder to the left!
On the sapphire-like ocean, the Hornwood Dragon's eight sails swelled without wind, as the direction of the ship's helm changed rapidly, causing the entire ship to tilt to the left. Most of the ship dipped directly into the seawater due to its excessive rotation speed.
The monkey in the cockpit directly flew up and collided with the ship's wall, where it was knocked unconscious immediately.
Old Wen was well-built and grabbed the monkey's belt, preventing it from crashing into the ship's wall again.
Unfortunately, the monkey's belt was not up to the task, and it was instantly torn as he landed heavily against the ship's wall.
'Ummm...'
He groaned softly, as if waking up from pain.
As the Hornwood Dragon emerged from the water once more, it sent up a multitude of snow-white foam. It was like a dragon salivating and spitting on the sea surface, flapping its fierce fins and roaring to the sky amidst the surging waves.
The ship's body had not yet recovered from the calm, Zheng He corrected the rudder and manually adjusted the sails, leaving a few kilometers away in a flash with the sea waves and wind.

It seems to be what the original owner would do.
"Then that fortress should have fallen."
Old Wen carefully approached the cabin door, pressing against it to listen attentively to the sounds outside.
Outside is very quiet, Old Wen breathes a sigh of relief, turns around and looks at Zheng He, saying, "That thing outside should have been thrown into the sea."
'Thud Thud Thud——'
Just as he turned away, there was a restrained and polite knock on the door from outside.
Old Wen and Zheng He looked at each other in confusion.
Old Wen's face turned grim, "The protecting array hasn't been opened yet. No one can go out of the room at this time."
Just as the Hornwood Dragon turned to such a large extent, even that monster could be thrown off the ship, what kind of person would act on such a Hornwood Dragon?
Or... It's not a person.
Zheng He quietly gripped the ax in her hand tightly.
Old Wen also pulled out his own knife and shouted out, "Who is it!" outside the door.
"Wen Ge!"
"It's me!"
"Wen Ge!"
A familiar voice came from outside.
Old Wen furrowed his brow, "Guangxia?"
Zheng He and Old Wen exchanged a glance.
Guangxia wasn't eaten by that eight-legged monster, right?
"Wen Ge! Senior Sister! It's me!"
"Guangxia!"
"On the ship..."
The person outside seems to be very scared, and their voice is shaking, "There are monsters outside!"
"Help me! Help me!"
He started pounding on the door fiercely, his voice hoarse, as if he was shouting this through the door, "Why won't you save me!"
"Open the door!"
"Wen Ge! Open the door!"
Wen Ge! Open the door!
The whisper poured into his ears without warning, and Old Wen stared blankly at the raging fire that flared up again in the cockpit.
Guangxia's voice and more piercing screams merged together, and he released the suddenly scorching long knife in his hand. He saw his hand, which had peeled off skin and flesh, being burned; the flames penetrated through the bandages and climbed up his arm.
Pain! It's too painful!
He couldn't help but start screaming in agony, reaching out his hands that were on fire and scratching at the still intact skin and flesh on his arms, leaving traces of blood without stopping.
Numerous charred and twisted arms grabbed his lower legs, the cockpit was engulfed in flames, and he stood amidst the flames, watching himself being slowly consumed by the fire, by his fallen colleagues who had died in the flames.
"It's not me! It's not me!"
"Don't come over! Don't come to me!"
Guangxia's shouting outside continued, "Wen Ge, is that you? Wen Ge! Open the door!"
Zheng He scratched his head, not quite understanding the situation.
She walked forward, grabbed Old Wen's collar and wanted to lift him up, but Old Wen was no less than 230-340 pounds. Adding to that, he kept waving his hands and feet as if he was a pig that was tied up during the Spring Festival. Zheng He underestimated it and stumbled, almost falling on top of Old Wen.
Lifting him up was not realistic.
Zheng He rolled up her sleeves and swung her arms in a full circle, slapping Old Wen's chubby cheeks left and right with heavy force.
Red handprints quickly appeared on Old Wen's face.

Zheng He raised an eyebrow, rubbing her hands, which were now warm.
Who knew slapping someone could have such an effect?
If she slaps Old Wen 55 times, could her escape value not drop to 0?
Suddenly feeling that it was incredibly fortunate that they hadn't killed Old Wen right away.
That's a walking value reduction device!
Zheng He shook her hands and swung her arms in a full circle, slapping Old Wen with another heavy force.

The previously mad Old Wen was completely stunned by the three slaps, and his eyes suddenly became clear. A stream of bloody saliva flowed from the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were glazed over, not knowing what to think about.
It seems that's still not enough.
To be honest, Zheng He never knew that slapping someone across the face could be so satisfying.
It's a bit addictive.
Just as she was about to give him another set of three slaps as a bonus, Guangxia's voice from outside suddenly pierced directly into Zheng He's head.
"Senior Sister..."
Is that you? Senior Sister?"
Guangxia's voice is only separated from Zheng He by a thin door panel. If it weren't for the protective array, his breath might directly pass through the door panel, stirring Zheng He's bangs.
He laughed jitterily outside, "Why are you smiling at me?"
"Senior Sister?"
"Do you like me?"
"Are you attracted to me?"
"You also want to eat me, don't you?"
