Chapter 387, the fierce waves of the sea
The second day after meeting Zuo Anti-American Father and Son, the Wave followed the direction guided by Zuo Lichang and guided the direction with a compass. It was moving forward at full speed on the wind and waves. All three sails stood up, bulging the wind, and glided the sea at an arrow-like speed with the boat.
So far, the Wave has been sailing on the sea for three days and has been sailing in the direction guided by Zuo Lichang, but it has never been able to catch up with Meng Ting, which makes the copper head and other people a little doubt that Zuo Lichang may not see the ship of Meng Ting and others at that time.
However, this is a vast sea, and there is not a road to follow on land. It can only be tracked according to the road. No matter how many people inquire along the way, you are looking for, but on the vast sea, you can only look at one direction, take the bright moon and stars as a reference, or use a compass to guide the direction, and keep driving all the way. As for the final Whether you find the person you are looking for or not, it really depends half on luck and half perseverance.
Now, all signs show that Tongtou and others are getting farther and farther away from Meng Ting, but because Tongtou and Ye Guoming don't want to give up, they are determined to swore to catch up even if they catch up to the edge of the sky. In fact, this is also a tempering of their minds. If they give up halfway, they don't know the consequences for Ye Guoming, but copper heads will definitely be worried. If you are concerned about it, it will be more difficult to promote martial arts in the future.
And Zhang Heng, Li Zhi and others chased them without danger because they admired them.
However, now it seems that the shipbuilding skills of people who live on the island all year round are not inferior to those on the mainland. Although the Sea Wave is one of Song Chun's fastest ships, after chasing them for a few days, they still can't even see their shadow.
No wonder that every time the pirate clearly knew the location of the robbery, when Song Chun's army arrived, none of them could successfully intercept the pirates. They could only chase after the pirates, but they still couldn't catch up and watched the pirates escape under their own eyes.
Although the result of such a result that can only be sighing at the ship is also due to someone informing, one of the main reasons is that Song Chun's ship's speed is not faster than that of pirate ships.
At this time, Copper Head and Ye Guoming are both in the bow, hoping to see the straight boat. As long as they can see a little shadow, it's good, but at a glance, they are all magnificent sea. Under the sunlight, the scales on the sea surface, and the reflected sunlight stimulates the eyes.
Although Copper Head and Ye Guoming knew that Long Fei's life was not in danger at present, after Long Fei was captured and had such a good mood to leave a title, they could think that he must know that his life was safe.
Besides, after Meng Ting hijacked Long Fei into his hand, he did not kill him immediately, but regardless of his injury and painstaking efforts to transfer Long Fei to the ship must have a certain purpose, so Long Fei should not be in danger for the time being.
However, it is clear that before they saw Long Fei and sound, Tong Ye still couldn't let go. Before Long Fei returned to their side, they still had to keep chasing him.
"Look!" Everyone was silently looking at the same scenery. Listening to the sea breeze blowing through their ears, the copper head suddenly pointed to the distance and shouted: "Why did it darken over there? How did God's face become faster than the child's face? It was sunny just now, and suddenly the sun seemed to fall into the sea."
Zhang Heng, who was holding the rudder of the boat, had already noticed the change of the weather. Looking at the sky that had become gloomy at this time, his eyebrows frowned and a worried look flashed in his eyes.
Not only did Zhang Heng frown, but Ye Guoming, Li Zhi and others also frowned and looked at the sky in front of them.
The sky, which was as clear as water not long ago, has gradually darkened. From the bow of the ship, the scenery can't be seen clearly in the distance. Only a vague area can be seen, and the gloomy sky is gradually spreading towards the sea of the Sea Waves.
Suddenly, the sea and the sky seem to be really connected as one. It is dark, which makes people no longer know whether it is water or the sky. It gives people the illusion that the Waves are sailing in the sky, so wide that there is no sense of direction.
Ye Guoming, who stood beside the copper head, did not have the excitement of the copper head. Instead, he frowned, and a look of fear flashed in his eyes. He reached out to try the wind direction and muttered, "It seems that we are in big trouble!"
The cry of the copper head stopped abruptly and looked at Ye Guoming and said, "What's wrong with us? Is it raining heavily?
"Exact!" Ye Guoming looked at the dark sky with a gloomy face, did not dare to leave for a moment, and his voice also seemed gloomy: "However, in the sea, the strong wind is often accompanied by heavy rain."
"Of course there will be heavy rain!" The understanding of the sea can be said as a matter of course, "It's not surprising. It's all the case in that place."
"Yes, it's the same in that place. Heavy rain is often accompanied by strong winds!" Ye Guoming said seriously, "It's just that the wind on the sea is a little different from the sea on land."
"What's the difference!" Tongtou felt a little ashamed. If it hadn't been for the help of Ye Guoming and others, he would have been able to sigh with his understanding of the sea.
"The strong wind often follows the big waves!" Zhang Heng's eyes also had the same fear. He said solemnly, "A super hurricane can set off huge waves higher than a five-story ship, and then fall down fiercely. The ship was either smashed to pieces, or the whole ship was abrupt into the bottom of the sea by the huge waves. Anyway, no matter which result the ship is, there is absolutely only one person on the ship. The result."
"Is it so powerful?" Copper head looked down at the side of the ship, and then began to wonder, "I think these waves are just crackling on the side of the ship."
"This is just the beginning!" Zhang Heng's face was a little pale: "The huge waves caused by the hurricane are higher than the mast of the Waves, which are overwhelmingly pressed down from the air, not to mention medium-sized warships like us, the largest building ship on the mainland, and it is also like a small toy in the sea."
Because copper head has always lived at the foot of Montenegro, although he has been to Guangwu and Liusha, he has never seen a hurricane that can set off huge waves higher than a boat as Zhang Heng said. His concept of strong wind is that he can blow the straw hat on his head into mid-air and turn over a few somersaults. Occasionally, there is a time when he can The strong wind that broke the branches on Montenegro had seen a super wind that could lift the sea in mid-air, so he was a little nervous and asked humbly, "What should we do?"
Ye Guoming said solemnly, "It's nothing. With the experience of Zhang Heng and Li Zhi, they should be able to survive."
The copper head quickly said, "Look at me a little, I can't swim."
"In this vast sea, even if you can swim, it won't help. Can you swim back from here? Besides, in this strong wind and waves, people fall into the water. Before you start to move, a wave hits and sinks to the bottom of the sea, and you can swim in the water." Ye Guoming said with a smile.
"That's also true. In this boundless sea, losing the ship is equivalent to losing your legs, and you can't walk even if you want to!" The copper-headed cracked mouth smiled bitterly and said, "It's just that this is the first time I went to sea and encountered this kind of thing. It seems that the sea doesn't welcome me very much."
Ye Guoming was amused by the copper head's words: "I just hope we are lucky enough to find an island nearby."
Copper nodded: "Is there an island near here that can shelter us from the wind?"
Zhang Heng was worried and said, "According to the charts, the nearest island is also more than ten miles away from here. I don't know if we can get there before the storm comes."
"I'm sure to get there!" The copper head comforted himself and looked up at the three rising sails. Because of the strong wind, the sails were much higher than usual, as if they would be blown off the mast by the wind at any time. Therefore, because the wind was getting stronger and stronger, the speed of the ship was much faster.
"I accept your good words!" Ye Guoming smiled and said, "But I don't know if God will listen to you?"
The copper-headed cracked his mouth and smiled and said, "The last time I was fortune-telling, the fortune teller said that my life was going well and I was lucky enough to make people jealous. How could such a thing happen the first time I took a boat? So I will definitely find the island before the wind and rain comes.
Although Ye Guoming saw that the copper head could not swim and knew nothing about the sea, he was still fearless and a little admirable.
This copper head is really bold. Even in the face of the unpredictable sea, he can talk and laugh freely at this uncertain moment of life and death.
smiled and said, "Maybe the fortune teller coaxed you to cheat money."
The wind gradually became stronger, and the waves beat the side of the ship, crackling, and the boat shook more violently. Because Tongtou was not used to the feeling of the boat, his feet were a little shaky. He leaned on the railing next to the side of the ship and nodded and said, "It's also possible. His grandmother's. Let's see if it doesn't work this time. If it doesn't work, go back and settle accounts with him."
Ye Guoming laughed and said, "I'm afraid you won't find him at that time."
"I can't find it. There are such stupid people in the world who cheated other people's money and wait for others to go back to settle accounts with him." Zhang Heng also laughed loudly.
At this time, Li Zhi also came to the bow, and then Zhang Heng said, "That's not necessarily true. After being cheated once, some people will return there and be cheated for the second time. The so-called one is willing to be beaten."
Except for the bronze head, the rest of the people here are people who have lived by the sea for many years. Although they are afraid of the wind, they will not be shocked that their feet will be weak. Moreover, these people are soldiers who have experienced real wars and have killed people. They are determined that they can still rush to kill even when they go to the battlefield of flesh and blood, because Although under the pressure of the hurricane, we can still talk and laugh.
The bronze head looked at Ye Guoming, Zhang Heng and Li Zhi and said, "It seems that you are not very nervous. Are you in a good mood?"
Zhang Heng said, "We often sail on the sea. We haven't seen any kind of wind and waves. If you are afraid of the wind and waves, don't go to sea."
Li Zhi said, "Yes, the last time I chased the pirates with Brother Heng, but I encountered a strong wind that had encountered for decades and almost overturned the ship. We also lost a few brothers, but we still survived."
"You guys are awesome!" Copper head gave Zhang Heng and Li Zhi a thumbs up and said, "This is the first time I've been to the sea, but it seems that the gift it gave me is not very pleasant."
The wind was a little louder, and the sail at the top of the mast was blown, and the cable slapped the mast, making a throng sound, covering the whistling wind. The speed of the Waves is many times faster than before, as if flying away from the sea, flying from this peak to another peak and flying directly across the valley.
The hull is shaking more violently,
Li Zhi smiled and said, "Maybe this is the way God of Sea welcomes you as a first-time person."
"This is also possible!" The copper head turned his head and thought for a moment, "But I still like him to use it in a more plain way. You don't have to make it so vigorous and earth-shaking."
Ye Guoming smiled and said, "In the future, you should inform the Sea God before you go to sea, so that he doesn't have to arrange such a grand scene to welcome you."
The copper head opened his mouth and laughed, "Remember, remember, next time..."
Before he finished speaking, a flash of lightning broke the clouds overhead and fell diagonally on the sea next to the ship, bursting clusters of sparks, squealing like a fire dragon dancing wildly, and the world turned white and blind in an instant.
It was the first time I saw such a spectacular natural wonder. There was a shock in my heart. Just as I opened my mouth and wanted to speak, a burst of Thunderbolt suddenly exploded in my ear, making my ears buzz, as if I was deaf, and I was so scared that I almost sat down.
The big raindrops were followed by the deafening thunder and finally fell.
The wind is stronger, and the thick raindrops hit everyone, which makes people feel a little painful.
The Wave bumped in the waves, falling from one peak to another, so abrupt and without warning.
For fear of being overturned by the strong wind, all the sails had been lowered, and the wind blew over the bare mast, like the cheering voice of the elves in the sea.
They also put down the mast again, and the power of the Waves is now driven by human paddles.
Li Zhi checked everything carefully and looked solemn. It seemed that the storm was very big, and now it was just the beginning.
I don't know what else they have left after the storm!
The wind continues to strengthen, constantly raising huge waves a few feet high, and smashing heavily on the sea. In this way, the waves half follow the wind and pass through the middle of the huge waves. Sometimes the waves will hit the ship and drag the ship into the bottom of the waves. Seeing that the boat has sunk into the bottom of the water, but after the waves, it is always floating. Get up.
Several times, the copper head was afraid that the boat would never float again, but the boat floated again immediately after the big waves, like a fallen leaf floating on the water.
Zhang Heng was concentrating on controlling the rudder ship. Ye Guoming assisted him. Li Zhi and other soldiers rowed with all their strength. Although there were no sails, the speed of the ship was not much slow. Except for copper head due to their unfamiliarity with the ship, the whole ship all worked together to bring the ship to Zhang Heng's impression. The small island in the middle.
The copper head with nothing to do looked at the ship and walked over there. Because the hull was shaking too much, the copper head almost fell on the deck several times, and once it was thrown out of the ship. In the exclamation of the crowd, fortunately, it grabbed the railing of the boat quickly, otherwise it might have met the Sea God long ago. .
When Ye Guoming saw the embarrassed appearance of the copper head, he was also a little funny in his heart and shouted, "You hold the railing, don't walk around, tie a rope to yourself, or you will fall down, but no one can have the ability to save you."
Since he was almost thrown out of the boat, Copper Head has been holding the railing tightly with both hands and dared not relax at all. He shouted, "This is a way."
He picked up a thick cable from the deck and tied it to his waist. At the same time, he did not forget to laugh at himself: "When I was a child, my family was afraid that I would get lost. They once tied me with a rope. I didn't expect that I had grown so big now, and I was afraid..."
Before the copper-headed words were finished, suddenly a powerful lightning that had never been seen before tore away the thick darkness, rushed straight down to the sea, and waved around in front of the bow, playing like a white real dragon.
At this time, there was ablaze and fire in front of the Wave.
After the lightning, there was a thunderbolt, and the thunder came softly.
As soon as the thunder stopped, his hands were holding the railing tightly. The copper head, which did not dare to relax for a moment, suddenly raised his left hand, pointed to the left direction of the bow, and shouted.
