Chapter 664: Navigation
On the blue waves of the sea. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
A steam yacht smits through the waves with black smoke, and in the sky not far away, white seagulls fly low across the sea, making a leisurely call.
"Steven, are you going fishing?"
Vidi and Philip wore fancy beach pants, their shirts were buttoned open to reveal most of their chests, they wore straw hats, and their skin had begun to turn a healthy wheat color from the scorching sun.
"No, I want to read!"
Wu Ming raised the tome in his hand.
If this "Final Teaching" is seen by someone who doesn't know the inside story, the ghost drawing talismans on it can completely dazzle him, and he doesn't know what to do, and Wu Ming doesn't even hide it.
"It's boring! Alice would love for you to put on sunscreen for her......"
Vidi complained: "And ...... According to Captain Victor, in a week we will be in the sea of our lover, the Red Coral Sea......"
This is the main destination of Wu Ming's travel, although it is also a very famous tourist destination, but through the channel of the ghost fox Diya, it is known that there is also a mysterious ruin hidden there.
"I got it......"
Wu Ming waved his hand and didn't even raise his head.
"Really...... I don't know anything about the ......."
Vidi pursed his lips and went out with Philip on his back: "I'm going to catch a big fish today, you can wait for a feast tonight, haha......"
……
"Simple people are quite happy!"
Looking at Neville's figures frolicking on the deck, Wu Ming smiled, and then ran his fingers over several scarlet symbols on the page.
"The Scarlet Hand, a dark organization that existed since ancient times...... It's just that it seems to be so weak now......"
The appearance of two people instantly appeared in front of Wu Ming's eyes, and it was Joseph and the figure of the gorgeous woman.
Originally, he could directly punch the minotaur to death, and the reason why he wanted to keep the other party's life for the time being was to see who was behind it.
Thanks to those two aliens, they still wanted to find out his details, but they didn't know that everything about them had already passed through the spiritual intermediary of the Minotaur and was unobstructed in front of Wu Ming.
The Charm Fox, who stayed in Victoria Harbour, has already begun to inquire about the news of these two people.
"The ...... of this world"
The "Book of Final Teaching" simply records the origin and development of the organization of the Crimson Hand, as well as a few small blood rituals, if anyone can really understand it, or simply imitate it, there is a little possibility that some of the extraordinary power can be obtained with it.
But there was a trace of doubt on Wu Ming's face.
"The transcendent ceiling is high...... The technology is quite advanced, and it has far surpassed the steam age of the previous life, but it is just ...... Is this really the world where the power of the Temple of the Lord Creator is located? ”
Although the coordinates of this universe were left by the original owner in the main temple, Wu Ming was no longer sure.
Perhaps, this is just an interesting world discovered by the other party and recorded it easily.
Or perhaps, there is something He has buried in this universe, waiting for someone destined to find out.
More likely, this is directly a trap, full of some kind of malice?
"In short, all the deep-seated secrets of the entire world must be unearthed, and all the relics, transcendent inheritances, and even the various great forces must be passed through!"
Just because of the attention of the original owner of the main temple, Wu Ming made up his mind.
Anyway, with the lifespan of his deity, this time can be completely consumed, not to mention, there is only one doppelganger located here, even if he spends his whole life in this world, there is no problem at all.
Because of his rich accumulation of knowledge in the world, coupled with the comprehension of extraordinary powers, Wu Ming translated very quickly.
After a long time, he rubbed his eyes, stretched, and walked out of the cabin.
At this time, the sunset on the horizon had almost half-sunk to the bottom of the sea, with an orange color, and the surrounding sea was sparkling.
"Really nice sunset ......"
Wu Ming smiled.
"Mr. Steven!"
Captain Victor next to him held a tortoiseshell pipe in his mouth and spat out a regular smoke ring: "Beautiful, isn't it?" ”
He looked to be about forty years old, with a scruffy face like a knife and an axe, and his temples were slightly frosty, and he looked accustomed to seeing wind and waves, which was the most standard old fur dog look.
"Captain Victor, how many years have you been sailing?"
Wu Ming looked at Angelina, Alice, and Lanny, who were preparing dinner, and suddenly asked this question.
"How many years have you been sailing?"
Victor laughed: "I was born on a fishing boat, and the sea is my hometown!" From the age of seven or eight, I helped my family to start processing the catch, and it was not until I was twenty-seven years old that I finally saved enough money to buy a small boat of my own. My age is my sailing years! ”
"Has the sea always been so beautiful?"
Wu Ming deliberately guided the topic: "So calm and stable? ”
"Calm and secure?"
Victor seemed to see something incredible, and laughed: "How is it possible? The sea is not only like this, you haven't seen its angry side yet, even if it is such a simple tourist route, when the real storm comes, we may also be shipwrecked and killed! ”
There was a look of confusion in his eyes: "This is still near the sea, if it was more than ten years ago, when exploring the routes to various colonies, there were ships on the sea almost every day, even if they found the New World, it did not mean that it was safe, those cannibalistic poisonous arrows and witchcraft were enough to turn any strong stick boy into a corpse!" ”
"In particular, the once-thriving slave trade, which plundered tens of millions of people, almost the same number died in the sea...... The resulting ghost ships, ghost tides, sea monsters, and ...... It's endless! For example, the mysterious loss of the San Andes that caused a lot of noise before, the whole ship disappeared, but the ship was intact, what else can be done except the revenge of those resentful spirits? ”
Perhaps because of his long voyage, Captain Victor believed in mystical powers, or superstitions, and talked about these things with a look of conviction.
Wu Ming also listened with relish.
While most of the captain's story is false, there are some that may be true.
"Mermaids, and ghost ships?"
Vidi leaned over, but pouted: "Uncle! What age is it now? Have you ever listened to scientific forums on the radio and in newspapers? That kind of mermaid, which is nothing more than a half-length hazy image of a dolphin or some other fish, and ghosts, has long been scientifically proven to be non-existent, and those who hype these things are gossip magazines for a little bit of sales......"
"Huh...... Little one, I have sailed more time and miles at sea than you have traveled......"
Captain Victor took an unhurried puff on his pipe, and then said slowly: "Just because you don't see it doesn't mean it doesn't exist!" ”
"Forget it, I'm still a little more interested in martial arts and grappling!"
Since seeing the signs of destruction in the hotel, Vidi's interest seems to have taken a slight turn.
After all, the kind of damage that seems to be caused by an explosion is really not something that a human can do, and after listening to Wu Ming's description, he immediately became full of interest in the extreme power of the human body.
Although Wu Ming doubted his original intention, whether it was just to exercise a strong body of muscles to attract girls, anyway, with the hard training, this guy would immediately complain after trying it, right?
"Well, didn't you say you wanted to catch a big fish? Where's the dinner? ”
Wu Ming walked to the deck and looked at the friends who were having dinner, there were scallops, sea crabs, and small fish a few inches long on the grill.
As for the unprecedentedly delicious fish that Vidi promised, there was no trace of it.
"This ...... Ha ha...... Are there occasional times when Lady Luck misses? ”
Vidi wiped his head and smiled awkwardly.
"Brother, give!"
Angelina smiled flatteringly, and handed over the juice and roasted meat.
After all, she was just a little girl, and after a few hints, the relationship with Wu Ming was getting better and better at this time, and it was not surprising to others.
After all, travel is a great way to deepen and strengthen relationships.
Just as the group was about to party all night, a seafarer came over with a solemn face: "The captain asked me to tell you that tonight may be a little stormy, it is best to stay in the cabin all the time, do not go out, let alone stay on the deck!" ”
"What are you kidding?"
Philip's cheeks flushed a little because of the rum he had drunk, and he pointed to the sky, where the moon and stars were particularly dazzling in the night: "How can there be a storm in this sky where there are no dark clouds?" ”
"Things on the sea always happen very fast!"
Wu Ming looked into the distance and muttered: "You have to trust the captain's judgment, let's go back, we can play in the cabin anyway!" ”
"It's ......"
As the real leader of the group, as soon as Wu Ming spoke, even Wei Di only muttered a few sentences, and immediately sorted things out very obediently.
Click!
As they walked to the cabin, not far away, a dense dark cloud floated over as if teleporting, covering most of the sky almost instantly.
In the thunder and lightning dance, the sea breeze also became stronger and stronger.
Click!
There was another earth-shattering bang, which made Angelina, Lanny and several other female voices scream.
In the next moment, big drops of rain fell.
The sea, which was calm just now, has finally revealed its murderous side!
In the darkness, the yacht began to rock violently.
The storm is coming!
"Good...... All right! Steven, you're right! ”
Vidi grabbed the railing beside him, his face was a little pale: "Indeed, this kind of weather is no longer suitable for staying outside, let's go back immediately!" ”
