readx;?“ Sail! There are sails! With the cheers of Lu Yu jumping and jumping, Lu Dan also saw the white-gray sail far away in the sky, and there was a blue cloth on the top of the sail, which seemed to have some patterns on it, but it was too far away to see the real thing.

"See!" The lookout shouted, "Captain! Ships have been discovered! ”

"Where?" Zhong Bin couldn't help but muttered to himself, and at the same time raised the telescope and looked in the direction pointed by the lookout finger. But even though he was in the aft tower, a relatively high part of the ship, he still couldn't see anything. His mind was not entirely on the rescued, and for him, the typhoon behind him made him even more anxious. When I turned an hour ago, the dark clouds behind me were only a little bit, but after this hour of sailing, the dark clouds behind me had begun to become more and more numerous, and the sky was covered with all kinds of clouds, some thin and some thick.

At this rate, it will take about three hours before the typhoon catches up with itself. Of course, the wind speed increases when a typhoon approaches, which has a certain effect on increasing the speed, but counting on the typhoon to power the ship is like bathing in boiling hot oil, just afraid that you will not die fast enough. There are still almost forty nautical miles away from Dongfang Port, and they are already outside the warning range of the navy's radar, and if they are caught by a typhoon, the Chunxiao does not know if it will survive.

The same worry permeated the hearts of every crew member of the Chunxiao, and even Lu Zhi, who had just been rescued, was now full of worry. Of course, he was more worried about his two sons, but now in order to save his two sons, everyone on the entire fortune ship has to risk the possibility of a typhoon, which is also a very shocking feeling for him.

He has been a Tanhu all his life, and his grandfather's grandfather's generation has already been a Tanhu, and since he can remember, no one has cared about the life and death of Tando, not even Tando himself. If you can help, you can help, if this kind of typhoon is coming later, where will anyone help a Tan people to search and rescue his family? It's like a fantasy, but the group of people in front of them are doing such things.

Now Lu Zhi is also on deck, he heard not long ago that his ship has been found, it seems that the children are fine, the boat is going to the location of the ship at full speed to rescue. On deck, he naturally saw the dark clouds in the south, as a person who has lived at sea for most of his life, how could he not know what the meaning behind this dark cloud is? Such a lucky boat, in the event of a typhoon, is almost a dead end, if you die, you may be a family, and such a boat, a death can be dozens of people.

His attention wasn't too focused on the clouds, though, and he was soon drawn to the strangeness of the boat. First of all, he knew that this ship must be a lucky boat, Xu Wen's area can be regarded as a sea communication artery, and there are often a large number of ships passing by in groups on the shore, and he has seen both the lucky boat and the sand boat. But this lucky boat was completely different from the lucky boats he had seen before, the first thing that caught his eye was the sails, he had never seen such a sail, it was actually a sail made of cloth, and now the wind was increasing, blowing the sails forward to look completely different from other lucky ships; In addition, there was no cargo on this lucky ship, but he had been in the cabin just now, even if he couldn't observe it, he could see clearly that the cabin had been divided into different areas, and there was really no cargo in it.

Now not only was there no cargo on the deck, but there were three cannons on the deck—even if he wasn't a military household, he could tell that the canvas-covered thing must be a cannon. The people on these boats were all dressed in almost identical clothes, and they looked like military households. This made him feel more and more curious, the army was also full of disgust and contempt for Tanhu, it was already difficult to save himself, and he had to brave the threat of a typhoon to rescue. Is this what the sailor's people do?

But speaking of the sailor, these people in front of them all have a strange smell, everyone does not have long hair, the body hair and skin of the parents, hair and beard are the most important no matter which dynasty and which generation, they actually shaved off their beards and hair, this is too shocking, right? And as far as the clothes worn by these people are concerned, the upper body is all short cardigan gowns, and the people of Annan in the Wu Dynasty have seen a lot, and they have never seen such a dress.

"See! Right there! As the sailors on the deck cheered, Lu Zhi's distracted attention was pulled back, and in the direction of the cheering sailors' fingers, there was indeed a black dot in the distance. Although I can't see it clearly, it should be a boat, and there is no mast on the ship, so I guess it should be my own boat. He was not as excited as a sailor, but a trace of worry came to his heart, the two children were not yet thirty years old, it was normal for a teenager to be overwhelmed in such a situation, the ship was badly damaged, and I wondered if the child would be frightened and fall overboard. He hadn't been there for most of the day, and he didn't know if anything would happen to the child, but as the distance between the two boats gradually shortened, his worries gradually began to accumulate.

"There are two kids on it!" The first mate held up the telescope and said loudly, "Still waving this way." ”

"Well, I saw it!" Zhong Bin also held the binoculars, "The two children look fine, nothing is wrong," said and put down the binoculars and ordered loudly, "Prepare to lower the sails, reduce the speed, and take the board." ”

Chunxiao came to the side of Lu Dan and Lu Yu in more than ten minutes, the sailors shouted the number to put down the lifeboat, and the four sailors climbed the board to go down to the boat, rowed the boat and sailed to the boat.

Lu Dan and Lu Yu just saw a boat approaching, and they couldn't help but cry with excitement, but when the boat approached, they felt worried, it stands to reason that the probability of someone finding themselves in such a vast sea is absolutely the lowest, how did this boat know that it was here? Could it really be the strange bird that threw the kettle earlier? What do these people do? Could it be a pirate?

He had heard his father talk about pirates, and pirates were as easy as drinking porridge, and a child like himself would be killed if they fell into their hands, right?

But after thinking about it, there is nothing on this ship, it is just an empty boat, and there is nothing to loot at all. But even if you become a pirate, it's better than dying of thirst and starvation at sea.

Looking at the fufu boat in the distance, several people rowed the dinghy closer, and the two of them couldn't help but be nervous. "Is it Lu Zhi's family on the boat?" Suddenly, the two of them heard the shouts of the sailors on the dinghy, and both children were stunned. Lu Zhi is their father, they know Lu Zhi, it should be that his father is still alive. Thinking of this, the two children couldn't help but be overjoyed, and replied, "Yes, yes!" Lu Zhi is our father! ”

"Your father is on the boat, come up!" The sailors shouted at them, "Hurry up, a typhoon is coming!" He said that his hand was pointing south.

Where have the children seen the big world? When they turned their heads, their faces turned white with fright, they had seen dark clouds before, but they didn't know that they were the harbingers of a typhoon. They've experienced typhoons before, and last night's storm was nothing compared to a typhoon. The two hurriedly jumped into the dinghy without caring about anything, but the sailors on the dinghy did not turn the bow of the boat and left immediately, they threw the cable on the dinghy and tied the bow of the Lu family's fishing boat, and then began to row towards the Chunxiao.

Lu Zhi felt a warm feeling in his heart, this group of sailors not only saved his child, but also seemed to have to save his fishing boat. However, after changing his mind and being deflated, how could the officials and soldiers trade at a loss? Now although he saved himself and his two sons, and brought back his fishing boat by the way, he must have asked for a lot of "boat saving fees" in the end.

But after thinking about it again, now that he is still alive, his two sons are all fine, if there are no officers and soldiers of these sailors, I am afraid that they will have to "shovel the family" today. If you don't have money or a boat, at least your life is still there, and the whole family is still alive, so you won't have the face to go down to see your wife who died early.

The sailors on the dinghy rowed the boat quickly, rowed the dinghy to the side of the frigate, and got on the boat by the rope ladder that was thrown down, and some of the sailors on the boat tied the cable to the stern of the boat, allowing the Chunxiao to tow the fishing boat.

Only then did Zhong Bin breathe a sigh of relief, and when he looked back, although the dark clouds in the distance had increased, it seemed that he would not catch up with him in two or three hours. He looked at Lin Bei, who was also looking below, and said, "Navigator, set a route and return to the port directly, quickly!" ”

Lin Bei nodded hurriedly, how could he not know that the typhoon was behind him now? Walk briskly over to the chart table and start setting the line. Seeing that he had already started working, Zhong Bin ordered to the helmsman of the Medeno Derno, "Sail to 270!" Start turning! ”

"Understood! Heading 270! The helmsman replied in a loud voice, and began to turn his wheel. The hull began to tilt to the right, and the bow began to rotate across the water to the left. Zhong Bin hurriedly ordered loudly: "Boatswain! Full sails! ”

"Raise the sails, hoist the sails! Full sails! Hurry up, hurry up! The boatswain commanded, and the sailor quickly began to untie the cable that had been fastened not long ago, and began to hoist the sails as the boatswain had ordered.

"The wind speed is rising! Captain! The second mate suddenly shouted, "Captain! Wind speed increased! ”

Zhong Bin suddenly raised his head and looked at the wind speed and wind direction meter on the mast, and sure enough, the three-cup anemometer was rotating rapidly, and the wind vane began to rotate left and right with the increase of wind speed.

"How's the route set?" Zhong Bin was nervous, and hurriedly urged, "Lin Bei! Hurry up! ”

"Yes, Captain! Iasuring! Although Lin Bei is also very nervous, he must not miss every step of the steps, otherwise it will not be a little delay.

Lu Dan and Lu Yu below couldn't feel the tension on the boat now, and the two of them cried and pounced on the boat as soon as they saw their father, and one of them hugged his father's two legs. Lu Zhi himself couldn't hold back his tears, and the father and son hugged their heads and cried.

"Adjust the course and turn to two-six-three!" Limbe drew a few strokes on the chart, measured it with a wooden protractor, and shouted out loudly.

"Understood! Adjust the course to 263! The helmsman flicked the wheel a few times, and before anyone could even feel it, the hull had already turned.

The sailors were nervous, and everyone could see that the clouds were spreading towards the top of the sky, the wind was crunching the masts, and the speed of the ships was increasing. The originally calm sea also began to become rough, and the bow of the ship split the waves, splashing everywhere, drenching the sailors at the bow of the ship, but no one said much, just stuck to their posts.

"By the way, Captain, we haven't notified the Navy Command that we've rescued people, have we?" The first mate suddenly reminded Zhong Bin as if he remembered something, and Zhong Bin suddenly realized, "No wonder I always feel that there is something I haven't done!" As he spoke, he said to the herald, "Send a report to the naval command, we have found the shipwrecked ship at the coordinate location, the rescue is complete, and we are returning home!" ”

The herald turned to leave, but was immediately stopped again, "All the people on deck must fasten their seat belts!" None of the people are out of the cabin! ”

The three fathers and sons over there hugged their heads and cried for a few words, but they were stopped by the sailors, "You three get off the cabin quickly!" A typhoon is coming, so let's go down! ”

Lu Zhi hurriedly pushed the two children in the direction of the entrance of the cabin, "You two hurry up." The two children were quite obedient, and hurriedly followed the herald to the cabin.

"You go down too!" The sailor next to him looked at Lu Zhi, who was about to come over, and asked curiously, "What are you still doing up there?" ”

"Help you guys! I'm energetic! Capable of work! Lu Zhi was about to come over as he spoke, and the boatswain next to him hurriedly walked over, "Don't mess around!" You hurry down, wait for the typhoon to come, maybe no one can escape, you help us can't run a few steps faster, hurry in! Then he shouted to the sailors, "Why don't you hurry up and fasten all the safety belts?" If you fall into the sea during a typhoon, you will die! Hurry up, hurry up! ”

The sailors hurriedly tied ropes one by one to their belts, and the other end was tied to the stakes used to secure people on the ship. Lu Zhi muttered, "I want to help you!" ”

"No!" The boatswain hurriedly said, "You have no professional training, the more you help things you don't understand, go down quickly, if you hit the water for the typhoon, then we might as well not save you!" ”

"Captain! Are we hoisting the tow sails? The first mate shouted, "If the wind speed is too high, the mast will not be able to stand it!" ”

"Good! Raise the towing sails! As soon as Zhong Bin's words fell, the shouts of the sailors retelling the order were heard, "Raise the sail!" The bow gun is ready! ”

The soldier lifted his gun jacket, filled it with half of the propellant, and stuffed a cylinder with a cable into the barrel. With a "boom", the cylinder lifted into the air, and a parachute-like canvas hemisphere was unfolded in front of the bow, and a cable was tied to the ground of the hemisphere.
