We lit a fire, and the old man went to inspect the ship, fortunately the luck was not bad, the ship had enough oil, and there was no problem with the ship, but this also verified that the ship had a problem not long ago.

Although Old Cripple Tan hadn't touched a boat for several years, he could get started immediately after a short period of adaptation, and he was a living map on the sea.

Zhong Bai paced the boat with a torch, but there were no other lotus women on it, and we were somewhat relieved, after a long time.

It stands to reason that it should be dawn.

But it was still dark in the distance, and from time to time I saw lightning flashing in the black clouds in the distance, and the thick thunderclouds seemed extremely heavy.

After starting the boat, the old man Tan said to us, "It looks like I'm afraid there will be a thunderstorm, it's typhoon season, sometimes it rains heavily, it will rain for more than half a month, and the tsunami is several stories high when the wind blows." ”

Old Cripple Tan said that although he said this, he didn't mean to worry at all.

However, Zhong Bai kept frowning at Old Cripple Tan, and after a while, he asked, "That photo was taken more than ten years ago, can I ask, why do you look exactly the same as more than ten years ago?" ”

Actually, I also discovered this doubt.

In that photo, Yan Laojiu didn't look so old, but the changes were obvious, but this old man Tan didn't look like he had changed much.

Old Tan was stunned.

Then he laughed and said to us, "You know why Yan Laojiu asked you to come to me!" Why am I sure that one of the thousands of islands in the South China Sea has an immortal spring? ”

"That's because I've drunk it."

Old Cripple Tan said something that shocked me very much.

"It's just that after I came out, I couldn't find it again! Those of us who fish at sea have all heard of the black island and know the legend of the Immortal Spring, but there are only a handful of people who have really seen it. ”

When Old Cripple Tan said this, his expression was still yearning.

But at this moment, the sails and bells hanging on the boat shook violently, and Old Tan said, "The wind is blowing." ”

As he spoke, the direction of the wind had gradually changed, and the sails on the mast were blown by the wind and trembled, creaking and creaking, and were about to break at any moment.

And in the distance, the coastline sky was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and bursts of thunder and lightning flashed, like a precursor to a heavy rainstorm.

The sea breeze is blowing louder and stronger, the sea is rippling and restless, and the ship is floating and sinking on the sea.

Old Cripple Tan quickly ordered: "Cut off the mast immediately!" ”

Zhong Bai asked me to hurry to the cabin, and then he and Tan Lao Cripple cut off the mast, and the mast fell down with a thud, and was carried by them and thrown into the sea.

As soon as the mast was thrown into the sea, the direction of the wind changed, and a strong wind blew suddenly, and a great wave swept the mast and slammed into the ship, so that the ship roared so loudly that it almost fell.

Old Tan squinted, his clothes were waving in the wind, watching the changes in the sky, and in the blink of an eye, the wind and the sunny sky.

It was covered with tumbling dark clouds, which overwhelmed the realm, and looked like a surging flood beast, and pressed down on them abruptly.

At this time, the wind was swishing and jumping, sandwiched with heavy rain, and the front was white, and it was impossible to identify the direction at all.

I was in the cabin, looking out through the window, the whole sea was shaking and turbulent, and in the wind I could only hear the crunch of the boat, which I did not expect to encounter shortly after leaving.

Fortunately, Old Cripple Tan had experience, so he didn't capsize.
