Chapter 21: Arrival
Windless zone, these three words have always been a mystical symbol in the waters of Kamodo, a desert oasis that only the messengers of the sea can find. With the exception of Chris, the other two came to the windless zone at one time.
The wind in the windless zone does not refer to ordinary winds, but to nature's natural punishment thunderstorms, and any ship that is caught in a thunderstorm will eventually end up with the ship being broken and people killed.
Dou Qingxiao raised his head, the calm sky was in the shape of a circle, and beyond that, there were black dark clouds all around. She could hear the whistling from outside, but she didn't feel the slightest danger.
This is the windless gateway to the Cayman Islands and the only way of life.
It was only later that they learned that there was another route into the windless zone. That route is far safer than galloping through a storm. The reason why Old John wanted to come after the rain stopped was because he planned to take a shortcut. Chris and Dou Qingxiao knew that the old John they hated had itchy teeth, but that was all for later.
After entering the windless zone, Old John's decadent momentum seemed to disappear. He stroked the rudder of the ship as attentively as a long-lost lover. Chen Yan walked into the main control room and said, "Thank you." ”
"It's my thanks, boss. Old John withdrew his gaze from the rudder and said, "Without your trust, I'm afraid I will never enter the windless zone again in my life." ”
Chen Yan shook his head, and he said, "When do you expect to arrive in the Cayman Islands?"
"It depends on the currents. Old John said, "If you go down the river, you will be there the next night." But if you go upstream, I'm afraid you won't be able to reach it in three or four days. ”
"The difference is so big," Chen Yan said.
"The sea is no better than the land. Old John took out a box of cigarettes without a brand, put it in his mouth, lit it, took a deep breath, and said: "The sea god appreciates the food, you can fill your stomach, otherwise there is only death." ”
Although the old John God was chattering, he had a point. Chen Yan chatted with him a few more words. When asked about the direction of the current, John Sr. shook his head.
"I don't know, this thing changes day by day, but don't worry, I'll do my best to get there. ”
Chen Yan was relieved when he heard this.
After all, entering a strange place. Chen Yan stood on the deck, his two eyes turned half-silver and half-red, and he briefly opened the ghost eye.
Ignoring distance and matter, the ghost eye can be said to be the most suitable eye for exploration. Chen Yan glanced at it for a long time, and only when he felt a tingling pain in his eyes did he close his ghost eyes.
Two and a half cents
This is the time when Chen Yan opens his ghost eyes, and once he exceeds this boundary, I am afraid that some bad things will happen at that time. Moreover, Chen Yan is also extremely suspicious that as the period of blindness approaches, the time for maintaining ghost eyes will also be shortened.
Two and a half minutes is probably a very optimistic time.
"I see that you always like to stand on deck. Chris's voice came from behind, and he joked, "Does the fishy sea breeze smell that good?"
"My eyes haven't been good lately. Chen Yan turned his head and said lightly: "Didn't someone say that looking into the distance is good for the eyes?"
Chris: "You're a guy who can get by. ”
Will live
Chen Yan recalled the $900 million he had given Alice in the Emerald Islands without saying a word, and thought that he was far from worthy of these four words.
If it weren't for the $900 million, I'm afraid Lin Jiajia wouldn't have used a time bomb against herself
Thinking about it, Chen Yan actually smiled.
Chris shook his head: "Chen, there is a piece of advice, I don't know whether to talk about it or not. ”
"You say. ”
"Your wife...... The woman named Lin Jiajia, since she came to the Cayman Islands alone, must not be an ordinary person. Christ paused, and said with a solemn face: "The people staying here are all outlaws who lick blood from the knife edge, you can receive her news and find her." It means that she has settled down here. ”
He bit the four words "settle down" very hard.
Chen Yan understood what he meant, although he couldn't cry or laugh in his heart, he still said: "Chris, you don't have to worry about this matter, I plan it myself." ”
Chris nodded when he heard this: "It's good that you know it in your heart, I'm afraid that you will be hit." ”
Chen Yan suddenly said: "However, since you know that my wife is not a good person. Still coming along, I'm curious about what you're thinking. ”
Under the gentle tone, there is a sharp temptation.
That's a question that Chris has to answer. Otherwise, after landing on the island, Chen Yan would have to ask him to stay with Old John.
Chris smiled bitterly: "I thought you wouldn't ask, I'll tell you the truth, Chen, I did come to the Cayman Islands for other purposes, but please don't worry, I won't be unfavorable to you." ”
Chen Yan narrowed his eyes: "What guarantee do you take?"
As he spoke, Dou Qingxiao also came to the two of them. Her fingers deftly flipped the triangular thorn, intentionally or unintentionally sweeping towards Chris.
Chris scratched his head when he saw this, and he said, "After entering the island, I will ask someone to help you find your wife, and then I will leave." You don't have to wait for me when you leave, how about that?"
You don't have to wait for me when you go
Hearing this, Chen Yan was stunned.
What does this Chris mean The son of a huge family, does he still have to settle in the Cayman Islands
Chris said, "There's a guy there I have to see. For me, he is both a teacher and a father. ”
Seeing that Chris didn't mean to say anything further, Chen Yan didn't want to ask again. He was confident that he and Dou Qingxiao were present, and Chris would definitely not be able to play any tricks. I just don't care about it.
Two days later, the long voyage finally came to an end.
They arrived in the Cayman Islands early in the morning, the only port in the thick fog through which the ruins were everywhere. The trough is crawling with carrions and rodents, and the mere look at it makes people's scalps tingle.
The ports of the Cayman Islands are deserted, and most of the ships docked around are tattered and wrecked, and Chen Yan even saw two withered bodies on the sails of one of the ships.
"Here we are. Old John's voice trembled.
Chris looked at this familiar port, and his eyes were full of complicated looks.
Cayman Islands, they have finally arrived.
At this moment, there are twenty-one days left before the period of blindness of the ghost eye.
