Chapter 243: Admitting defeat
Suddenly, another girl came out of the cabin, holding two harpoons, and glanced at the horn with contempt. She was wearing fisherman's trousers, gray and black coarse cloth, revealing half of her legs, and her facial features were very handsome, and her skin was different from the dark brown skin of people who were often exposed to the sea at sea, and she looked very fair. A flower turban was wrapped around his head, and a few strands of hair were faintly scattered, blown by the sea breeze on his face, and the thin strands of hair made people ripple infinitely.
I saw a woman on the sea, still a beauty, and the sailors who sounded the snail horn screamed strangely, and some whistled at the girl.
The three small boats that Xu Hai put down were loaded with fifteen people, each person with four harpoons with a line to catch the gray whale. Unlike the old man's harpoons, they were barbed.
These sailors were newly trained, and the newborn calves were not afraid of tigers, and they did not care about the waves, and one by one they held the paddle steadily, and they came closer to their feet, and threw their forks at the giant whale.
The giant whale dived rapidly, its big flat tail cocked and slapped the water.
This time everyone saw how big it was, and its length of more than ten zhang made it look like a huge beast. The waves crashed, and the dinghy closest to it took off, and five men threw it far away, and ropes and harpoons fell into the sea in a mess.
The five boys floated up and flipped the boat over in embarrassment, chasing the oars around. The iron-headed harpoons were all sunk.
The gray whale swam farther and farther, and the harpoon was difficult to aim. The whale slapped the surface of the sea again, and the boats shook very violently, and the forks they threw were even worse.
Who would have thought that the old man also threw a harpoon on the dhow behind him, but he actually stuck straight into it, very close to the head of the giant whale.
When the sailors of the Conch saw such good skills, they clapped their hands a few times and shouted, "Shot, shot." ”
This time it is indeed accurate. The girl heard the sound and came out to see. Then her mother turned the rudder to cross the waves, and the girl raised her hands and grabbed the canopy. The body was tense, the delicate lines were exposed, and the protrusion and backward bowing were really flashing the eyes of a blind man.
The sailors of the conch were in a commotion again, shouting at the girl's "sister", "kiss", and "Jiaojiao".
The whale had been rounded up before, and it wasn't panicking at the moment. It swam twice hard, dived slightly, and then rolled its head out of the way. The old man's fork rolled off because it didn't have a barb.
All the onlookers screamed in frustration together.
The old man grinned, and did not seem to be much disappointed, and pulled the harpoon back with the rope.
On the two dinghys laid down by the Conch, the sailors were very anxious when they saw that the old man had almost succeeded, and felt that their oarboats were not as agile as other sloops, and they were very embarrassed, so they dared to rush closer, and at once six harpoons were thrown horizontally and vertically.
Five harpoons fell into the sea, and only one fork slammed diagonally on the whale's back, slipped and bounced off and fell into the sea.
When the girl saw this, she giggled and jumped and clapped her hands on the boat, as if to laugh at the incompetence of the men.
The rules of the sea, whoever kills counts. Xu Hai was a little anxious, and he wanted to hunt the gray whale as a gift for his first voyage. He ran down the bow and ordered the sailors to load the cannonballs with gunpowder, intending to wound the whale before capturing it.
The shells were loaded, the gun compartments were opened, and then the sailors on the mast waved their flags and told the people on the sea to get out of the way.
Both dinghies saw the signal and both retreated.
The old man was very angry, jumping to his feet and shouting, but unfortunately he couldn't hear what he shouted in the wind and waves.
Xu Hai aimed very skillfully, and the cannonball was shot out with a pestle.
The white smoke cleared, and the dhow immediately turned its rudder to move closer to the whale. The old man's harpoons were thrown one by one. Xu Hai ran onto the deck and opened the clairplane to see where he hit.
The giant whale exhaled at this time, and the vapor mist rose into the sky.
When the steam fog fell, people saw that the whale's head was red. The gray whale slowly raised its tail and buried its head deep in the water, and then little by little...... sank.
At this moment, the centaurs panicked, threw harpoons one after another, and threw them at the giant whale.
But it was too late, and the whale contracted its lungs, and it was lifeless, and it was suddenly much heavier than the sea. The rope forks that were thrown couldn't pull it at all, and they could only watch it sink.
The dhow simply turned the rudder and sailed back, passing by the Conch. With tears in her eyes, the girl sat at the stern of the boat with her knees crossed, her little face full of disappointment.
The old man raised his face and scolded: "You stupid!"
Xu Haiqiang saved face and waved to him with a sneer. In fact, I also regret in my heart, a good giant whale, just gone.
In the end, there was nothing on the surface of the sea except two silly dinghys. A large cloud of dark red blood slowly dispersed, and two sharks rushed to and fro in the sea of blood.
The girl seemed to be angry in her heart, standing on the boat and pinching her waist to challenge Xu Hai, to compete with him to float, and scolded him for being a fool with no ability.
Xu Hai couldn't be excited, and immediately said that he wanted to go into the water to compete with the girl and teach this girl a lesson.
The sailors on the ship all shouted, cheering for Xu Hai, and some coaxed that if the girl lost, they would simply marry their general.
The girl pursed her lips and asked Xu Hai, "What if you lose?"
Xu Hai laughed, "If you lose, I will call you three times Aunt and Grandma." ”
The girl looked at him deeply, and suddenly jumped into the water. Xu Hai also jumped into the water.
At this time, it was getting late, the sea breeze was suddenly rising, and the waves were a little strong. The girl's figure floated up and down in the dark water, like a fish of the most dexterous of all.
Suddenly, a wave hit, the girl sank into the water for a long time and did not float, Xu Hai was taken aback, and hurriedly dived under the water to find it, but it was dark underwater, and there was no bottom how to find it. At this moment, the huge wave overturned him, choked on a few mouthfuls of water, and became a little dizzy.
When the sailors on the boat saw Xu Hai sinking to the bottom, they all screamed, and immediately a few jumped into the water, and before they could swim closer, the girl suddenly emerged from the water and dragged Xu Hai a little bit towards the conch. The crowd dragged the two onto the boat.
In the end, it was the girl who rescued Xu Hai, Xu Hai lost the bet, but he was a big man, how could he open his mouth to call a girl to be his aunt, and he couldn't open his mouth several times. Since he was laughed at by the girl.
Xu Hai couldn't wipe his face, and kept thinking about it in his heart, no wonder his face didn't look good for two days.
After listening to Zhou Qi's narration, Guo Wenying couldn't help but chuckle, this Xu Hai is confident that he has a good temperament and doesn't take other girls in his eyes, but he doesn't know that the girl has lived at sea since she was a child, and she is more familiar with the sea situation than him, who is good at swimming in the river, and losing is inevitable.
He deserves to have nothing to do, and it's good to teach him a lesson. To find this site, please search for "6 Mao" or enter the URL:.
