Chapter 45: The Tempest
The icy sea breeze instantly woke up the old Buffon, who was still indulging in the story of the Water Margin!
Old Buffon first glanced at the sunset that was already close to the sea level in a panic, and then glanced at the watch in his hand!
"OMG! It's already so late! If we want to go back, we're going to have to go with Lucifer! ”
Me: "......"
Buffon Sr. didn't bother me, he got up and ran to the cabin as fast as he could!
I stood up calmly and felt the cold wind around me!
Joan of Arc said: "In this wind, there is some yin energy!"
I nodded and said, "Delay a little longer, you can't let old Buffon leave, that thing should be here soon!"
Joan of Arc and I ran to the cockpit!
In the cockpit, old Buffon is busy manipulating the bridge!
When he saw the two of us coming in, he commanded, "Don't be stunned, you two! Fang Ming went to control the engine, and Joan of Arc took the helm! Soon, after the evening wind rises on the sea here, there will be a strong storm immediately! We need to rush back to the port as soon as possible! ”
Old Buffon was so busy in the cabin that he couldn't even lift his head!
I said, "Old Buffon! If we could, I think we could spend the night at sea! ”
As soon as Buffon heard this, he threw away his work and walked over to me!
He grabbed me by the collar and said, "Boy! Do you know about storms at sea? That's not the water gun you played with as a kid, it's a storm! A storm capable of overturning ships! We don't have much on board! Once the storm comes! Our cabins will soon be overturned by a storm! ”
I scratched my head and pretended to be embarrassed and said, "I promised my sister!" I want to make a wish with her under the stars on the ocean! As a man, you have to keep your promises, don't you? ”
Buffon Sr. pushed me and said, "Fuck promise, it's important to stay alive right now!" And the storm is coming, you look at the starry sky! ”
Buffon Sr. then began to operate the fishing boat himself!
At this moment, Joan of Arc gritted her teeth and rushed up, smashing the engine!
Old Buffon almost went crazy when he saw this!
"Hey! What do you do? If you want to go to God, just jump off the deck now! ”
Buffon Sr. stopped Joan of Arc!
Joan of Arc said: "Old Buffon, this ship is my brother!" He said stop here, you stop here! ”
Buffon Sr. looked at Joan of Arc and said, "Yes! This ship belongs to your brother! But your brother has appointed me to be the captain of this ship! So all the people on this ship have to listen to me, you know! ”
The more old Buffon spoke, the louder his voice became, and he forced Joan of Arc into a corner step by step!
I hurriedly stopped Buffon Sr. and said, "Buffon, Sr. Buffon! We're at your disposal! How about heading back to port now? ”
Old Buffon didn't speak, but began to operate the ship on his own!
I comforted Joan of Arc softly, "Forget Joan of Arc!" Go back, go back! Anyway, we barely learned how to sail a boat! Just come back next time for the two of us! ”
Joan of Arc nodded and acquiesced!
And the old Buffon on the side sneered when he heard this: "The technology of driving a boat, you haven't learned yet!"
As soon as the elder Buffon finished speaking, the engine next to us suddenly let out a piercing roar!
Buffon Sr. covered his ears and scolded: "Oh my God! If I make it back alive, I'll change the best oil for you, but please don't make a fuss now! ”
The roar of the engine grew louder and louder, and Buffon Sr. scratched his hair and said, "Hell! If my brother had come, this would never have happened! ”
Rumble!
There was a loud bang from the engine, followed by a puff of black smoke, and the world fell silent! Only the constant whining of the wind came from the deck!
I walked to the deck and took a look, and sure enough, the black clouds had pressed down!
Buffon Sr. found his gloves and put them on, and then began to remove the hood of the engine!
Joan of Arc on the side didn't expect that a few hits of her hand would be so powerful!
At this time, the elder Buffon turned his head and said, "Don't be stunned! Go find me wrenches for number 16 and number 22! And screwdrivers! Joan of Arc went to see if there was any oil, and if there was no oil, lubricating oil, butter would do the trick! ”
Faced with this situation, old Buffon did not have the angry look just now!
While he was repairing the engine, he calmly gave us instructions!
At this time, the black clouds had pressed over, and the wind at sea had blown the fishing boats around!
Old Buffon shook and almost fell off the engine!
"Fang Ming, is the storm already coming?"
I replied, "Not yet, but the wind is already blowing hard!" ”
Old Buffon closed the engine cover directly when he heard this!
He ran to the deck and reached out to feel the direction of the wind and said, "The engine is broken!" If we can't fix it for the time being, we'll raise the sails and let the wind blow us! ”
Me: "Wouldn't it be dangerous to sail in such a strong wind?" ”
Old Buffon said: "I can't care so much!" The ship is out of power now, and the sea will certainly not be able to reach it! Rather than die in this storm, it's better to fight! ”
"The sea around here is very empty, there are no reefs! If I'm at the helm, there's still some hope of survival! ”
I'm completely at the kindergarten level for sailing, since the old driver said sail, let's sail! Anyway, with the two of us here, this guy can't die! It's a big deal, the boat doesn't need it, let's fly back!
Hooking up the rope and hoisting the sails, Buffon Sr. and I started pulling the ropes together, and the pulleys at the top of the mast creaked!
"No! The wind is too strong to pull! ”
Then Joan of Arc ran over and said, "I'm here to help!"
Old Buffon reprimanded Joan of Arc: "Village girl, go back to the cabin!" It's a man's job! ”
Joan of Arc stubbornly said, "Please let me at least take some responsibility for what I did wrong!"
Buffon Sr. said: "The engine damage has nothing to do with you, it is that the old Brooke has not changed the engine oil for a long time, which caused the engine gear to collapse!" You don't have to blame yourself! Do you hear that? ”
At this time, the wind is getting stronger and stronger, and the dark clouds in the sky have begun to flash purple or cyan lightning!
"Don't talk about that yet! Let's pull the sails up together! ”
At this moment, a wave hit, and the fishing boat shook violently a few times!
I looked at the rising waves and said to Buffon Sr., "Buffon, Sr., go and take the helm!" Here's it to us! ”
Buffon Sr. had some redness in his eyes.
"Three minutes! If you can't lift the sails in three minutes, go back to the cabin! I have other options! ”
