Chapter 549: Contact Lost
At dusk, the storm subsided.
The sea once again showed its gentle side, like a shy woman, as seductive as it might be, as if the previous calamity had nothing to do with it. In the opinion of Wang Yue and others, the sea and women do have a lot in common, at least in terms of fickleness.
On the deck of the Tengjiao, the sailors were busy back and forth, hoisting the sails, cleaning the hull and other things were being carried out in an orderly manner, and after the wind and rain, the deck was extremely slippery, and the sailors had to be very careful, and the watchtower of the ship was re-stationed with sailors with good eyesight.
In the storm, Wang Yue has been standing beside Liu Yu to help, and his brave expression made a certain city lord dumbfounded, "With such a violent wind and waves, the eldest brother who has always been afraid of nothing has nothing to do?" But what happened next made Ah Niu cry and laugh: after the crisis was resolved, the first wonder man in Shenzhou ran to the side of the ship and vomited with lightning speed.
"After doing it for a long time, the eldest brother has been holding on, and it took a few hours to do it, and even the vomiting looks so cool, it is really a master's style." A certain city lord said heartlessly, Wang Yue glared at Ah Niu fiercely, smiled bitterly, and went back to the cabin to rest.
Liu Yu, who had been fighting on the front line in the storm, was also very tired, and he had a wound on his back just now, and he didn't even know anything in the process of fighting the storm. When he saw Ah Niu leaving the cabin, Liu Yu hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
"What about the damage?" Ah Niu goes straight to the point.
Liu Yu had been prepared for this for a long time, and soon reported: "In terms of personnel, five sailors were injured, one of whom was seriously injured, but fortunately, the Tengjiao had enough medicine on board, and only needed a period of rest before returning to work; There was not much damage to the hull, but there was a slight damage on the port side, and the subordinates had sent sailors to repair it, and it was expected to be completed within three hours;
The real problem is in terms of supplies, as we threw away a lot of food and water to reduce the weight of the ship's hull during the storm, and now we only have enough food to last for five days. The problem of food is well solved, we can find a way to get some supplies from the sea, the most serious problem is the water, all of which is gone. ”
At first, Liu Yu only ordered half of the grain and three-quarters of the water to be thrown away, but as the shape deteriorated, he had to continue to abandon the supplies, and finally became the current situation. A certain city lord couldn't help but gasp and said in a lost voice: "Hundreds of buckets of water, completely gone?" Even if you throw away all the food, you have to leave some water! ”
Ah Niu and Xiao Yu don't have to worry about the lack of water, but Wang Yue, Zhao Xue, and the soldiers of Tengjiao can't sit idly by, and the consequences of not having fresh water to drink are strict.
Liu Yu said: "That...... My lord, although there is no fresh water, we still have more than 180 jars of Baihua wine, and if we save a little, it should be enough for everyone on the ship to drink for seven days! ”
This explanation made a certain city lord feel a little more at ease, before going to sea, Wang Yue was worried about the loneliness of the journey, and strongly requested to store two hundred jars of Baihua wine on the ship, and now it finally came in handy, which could temporarily relieve the urgent need. However, a boatload of people drinking Baihua wine as water is no longer explained by the word "luxury"!
"After seven days, what about the wine of the hundred flowers?" Niu saw a possible crisis in a few days.
"There are two ways. The first is that we will find an island within seven days, complete the supply of supplies and fresh water, and then return to the road; As for the second option, it is hoped that in the following days it will rain heavily, and that the ship will have enough water containers, and perhaps a large amount of fresh water can be obtained from the rainfall. ”
In the process of discarding supplies, most of the experienced sailors poured out the water from the buckets, leaving the buckets. This not only facilitates future supplies, but also allows the barrel to be used for heating, repairing equipment, etc.
Liu Yu replied cautiously, he himself knew that neither of these methods was safe, and he was completely uncertain whether he could complete the supply, which was very different from the style of a certain city lord who always advocated accuracy. But in this situation, he had no better way, if he hadn't done that at that time, maybe the Tengjiao had already sunk.
A certain city lord really looked a little dissatisfied, but he didn't do it immediately, Liu Yu's appearance in the storm was enough to prove his bravery and loyalty, Ah Niu understood that he couldn't ask for more in such a situation.
After pondering for a long time, Ah Niu handed the chart to Liu Yu and said with a light smile: "In the end, don't pin your hopes on God, if it doesn't rain before we run out of Baihua wine, we can't move a stone to the sky." Go all out and look for the islands, this chart might help! ”
Liu Yu took the chart from both sides, bowed down and said, "Yes." ”
"With the current situation, without considering the supply, the weather and other factors, how long will it take us to get to the target location?" This is the problem that Ah Niu is most concerned about at present, the Fengxiang family has a big business, although Chen Gong, Pang Tong and others can share their worries, but it is obviously not advisable for the lord to be absent from the territory for a long time. Regardless of npnetpc, many things are not something they can solve perfectly.
After Liu Yu carefully calculated, "If it is a qiē shun lì, it will take at least twenty-five days, considering the time we have spent looking for fresh water on the island, in fact, the fastest arrival will be thirty days later!" And you can't meet the storm you just experienced......"
A certain city lord is speechless, the boredom of drifting on the sea for a month is a trivial matter, and it is really a good choice to go offline and do some things he loves, but it is an indisputable fact that many things in the territory are delayed.
For example: the advancement of the reconstruction plan of Luoyang, the time when Fengxiang was promoted to a third-class city, etc......
Two days later, Wang Yue and Zhao Xue had gradually freed themselves from the blow of seasickness, but everyone's faces were a little solemn, and the trouble they encountered seemed to have just begun.
For two days, Tengjiao's efforts to find the nearest island made no progress, and the sky was not beautiful, and the wind and sun were beautiful for two consecutive days, and there was no sign of rain.
Liu Yu has already implemented stricter control over the use of Baihua wine, except for Wang Yue and Zhao Xue enjoying special treatment, the soldiers of the Canglan Water Division, including Liu Yu himself, each received a jar of Baihua wine, which will be their two-day supply.
The new rationing standard can delay the water cut-off time of the Tengjiao by three days!
For sailors who sweated a lot and did heavy work such as paddling, such rations were absolutely unreasonable. But no one objected, and everyone knew about the current situation of the ship's material reserves, which was a helpless thing.
The sailors did not despair, all of them stuck to their posts, they understood that this was not an easy task, and the lords were with them!
The sailors were just regretting, "Why didn't you think to drink more water in your stomach before pouring the water that day?" "Many people began to envy some kind of magical creature: the camel, even though none of them had ever seen it.
A certain city lord still had a smile on his face, he didn't want to put any pressure on Liu Yu and the others, in this kind of difficult time, the leader's composure can often bring a sense of stability to his subordinates and avoid unnecessary riots. But in fact, Ah Niu's heart was extremely anxious.
Prior to this, Ah Niu had just had another big problem: the communication bracelet could no longer receive any messages, it was completely unusable, and even the little fish that was next to him could not be connected. This qiē should also have started after leaving the Great Han Maritime Frontier, and it seems that the communication bracelet also has a problem similar to that of an "effective service area".
This means that Ah Niu has completely severed contact with Feng Xiang!
Ah Niu was frustrated by this, and when he thought that this problem could have been avoided, his mood became even more irritable, "Since the national system announcement can only be spread within the territory of the Han Dynasty, it is not surprising that the communication bracelet has such a restriction, why didn't I think of it in the first place?" ”
After Xiao Yu knew Ah Niu's troubles, he said humbly: "If I stay in Fengxiang, I can at least tell you about the situation in your territory." ”
There are really not many women like Xiaoyu who are wise and have a blue heart and don't mess around, and always think of what they can solve first when they encounter problems.
A certain city lord hugged Xiaoyu in his arms, "Silly girl, how can I blame you?" It's all my inconsiderate thinking, if only I exchanged contact information in reality with Zhao Long and Zhuge Lin in advance...... Even so, if there is an important event, there should be news on the forum, and we should enjoy the journey. ”
Ah Niu's intimate behavior made Xiao Yu's face red, and he hid his head in Ah Niu's neck to avoid everyone's attention, blinking his big eyes and muttering, "Does it really matter?" ”
"Well, really!"
As a man of the year in the game, a certain city lord is actually relatively indifferent to the game: it's just a game. Ah Niu never expected to make the friends he met in the game become friends in life, and subconsciously resisted the life of further friendship, even if Emperor Wu of Han and others did not know his contact information, I have to say, this is a bit of an alternative concept.
On this night, Jiuli Mountain, which is adjacent to Fengxiang City, gave birth to an unknown duel.
