Seeing Brother Zeng's hurried appearance, I became more and more uneasy, although I was born as a scout, but I didn't know anything about things on the water, when I went to the sea, I only rolled a few times on the beach, and I never took a boat into deep water.

At this time, the fog rose on the surface of the lake, and I could not see the reference in the distance, which made me feel like a lonely fishing boat floating in the endless water, and the feeling of helplessness in my heart was really indescribable.

Brother Zeng called me to the cab and said, "We are now in the east of Xingzi County, the closest to Xingzi County, according to the wind, I estimate that we have to dock in the south of Xingzi County!" ”

I said in my heart that the south is the south, anyway, we should land as soon as possible, and in this situation, it is difficult that we still have a choice.

But I thought about it carefully, Brother Zeng specially called me over, I'm afraid it's not as simple as discussing the place to land, could it be that there is something strange in the south of Xingzi County?

"Brother Zeng, listening to what you mean, I don't want to land in the south of Xingzi County, is there something wrong?" I asked.

"Don't you know? Chen Youliang and Zhu Yuanzhang have confronted each other here! "Brother Zeng looked at me in surprise, as if I should know what was strange here.

"Chen Youliang and Zhu Yuanzhang have been fighting fiercely in Poyang Lake for more than a month, what's so strange about the confrontation here?"

Brother Zeng shook his head and said helplessly: "It was during the confrontation here that Chen Youliang killed all the prisoners, and then threw all the corpses into the lake!" ”

Seeing that I still didn't understand, Brother Zeng continued: "Those of us who sail all know that we can't go south of Xingzi in Poyang Lake, because it is the range of ghosts and gods, and many fishermen have never come out after they have accidentally entered Xingzi South!" ”

I thought to myself, why did I pull it on the ghosts and gods again? Could it be that all the things in this world that cannot be explained by science are to blame on ghosts and gods?

However, since Brother Zeng is reluctant to go in, I can't make it difficult for me, after all, he is the captain!

"Then if it doesn't depend on Xingzinan, where else can we go?"

Brother Zeng thought hard for a moment, and then said: "This ghost weather forecast is not accurate, this wind is too strong, we can't continue to move forward, I think, we can only try our luck and see if we can land safely in Xingzi South!" ”

I made an OK gesture to Brother Zeng and said, "Listen to you!" ”

After saying that, I wanted to go back to the cabin and tell Qiu Yan and them the news.

As soon as I turned around, Brother Zeng grabbed me and instructed, "Put on your life jacket in case of accidents!" ”

Brother Zeng's expression was very serious, I knew that he was really scared!

Back in the cabin, I told Qiu Yan and Huang Yueling about the conversation just now, who knew that Huang Yueling said thoughtfully after listening: "Xingzinan, Bao Zhuji, take a detour, don't look back, this boatman is right, there is indeed such a thing on Poyang Lake!" ”

I smiled wryly, "Why didn't you say it earlier?" ”

Huang Yueling still looked like a cockfighting, and replied angrily with her head held high: "Didn't I remember it?" Besides, who knew that it would suddenly rain and blow so much wind on this good day! ”

"Hey, forget it, it's all like this, you put on your life jacket and be vigilant, I think Brother Zeng looks serious!"

After that, I also took a life jacket and put it on myself.

......

The boat shook very much, and it didn't weaken at all, Huang Yueling and I were fine, but Qiu Yan had already shown seasickness.

I don't know how to comfort her at this time, people who are seasick and seasick, the pain is only known to them.

I told Qiu Yan to lie down, and then sat next to her with my nerves tensed.

Even though I was in the cabin, my ears kept an eye on the situation outside, the wind outside was howling like a wolf, and the hailstones were constantly pounding on the ship like bullets, and I suddenly felt like I was on the battlefield.

Suddenly, without warning, the hull of the ship became stable, and the sound of hail had disappeared, and I thought the storm had passed, so I opened the cabin and went outside to check.

But before I could get out of the cabin, I felt like the ship was moving sideways, and a centrifugal force was throwing me out.

I looked up and was completely stunned.

It turns out that we are now in the very center of a storm, and although there is no wind or rain here, a huge whirlpool has formed on the surface of the lake, and we are on the edge of the whirlpool, and we are sinking into the whirlpool little by little.

I feared that the two women would see this, so I told them not to come out, so I closed the hatch and walked into the wheelhouse with the side of the ship.

At this time, Brother Zeng was holding on to the rudder, his eyebrows furrowed and fighting against the whirlpool, and he didn't even notice it when I walked into the cab.

"Brother Zeng, what now?" I shouted.

When Brother Zeng found out about me, he was shocked at first, and then he said with a sad face: "It's the first time I've encountered such a big whirlpool, I think we're planted this time!" ”

"Where are we now?" Staying calm in the face of danger is the basic quality of a scout, and even before we die, we will continue to struggle.

Brother Zeng refused to let go of the rudder, and pointed to the map next to him with a pouting and said, "Do you see that sharp tip in Xingzi County?" We're right in front of this tip, just a dozen miles from the shore! ”

I looked at the map, and the sharp tip that Brother Zeng said was the end of the Xingzi County Peninsula.

It stands to reason that such a large whirlpool cannot form in such a place, unless there is some deep pit in it, or some kind of ghostly thing.

Just when Brother Zeng and I were at a loss, someone suddenly tapped me on the shoulder, and I looked back and saw that it was Huang Yueling.

"What's the matter? The boat can't get out? Huang Yueling's face was calm, like no one, compared to me and Brother Zeng's flustered appearance, she was like a female general.

"What are you running out for? Isn't that messy enough? I yelled loudly, Qiu Yan is disobedient, Huang Yueling, this girl is also a virtue.

Huang Yueling smiled: "Why did I run out?" Of course I'm here to help you? ”

"Just you? Do you know boats or water? I looked at Huang Yueling contemptuously and said.

Unexpectedly, when Brother Zeng heard this, he turned around and asked, "Does the Jiang family really have the means?" ”

I don't know why, means? What means?

Huang Yueling nodded: "Of course, otherwise why would the Jiang family run on the Yangtze River?" ”

After Huang Yueling finished speaking, she lifted a bag, and I realized that she came out with her cloth bag.

Huang Yueling was not flustered, even if the boat was still shaking, she stood firmly as if she was sticking to the boat, and then she took out a stack of rune paper and a box from the cloth bag.

Huang Yueling opened the box, I saw a small bottle inside, Huang Yueling pulled out the cap of the bottle again, and then put her right index finger into it.

When Huang Yueling pulled out her index finger, I saw that she was touching a lump of black liquid in her hand.

After that, Huang Yueling covered the bottle, put it aside, and then drew it on the rune paper with a black liquid stain.

I was curious, so I walked over to take a look, and who knew that I actually knew the talisman she drawn, which was the requiem recorded in the codex.

After drawing the runes, Huang Yueling walked out of the wheelhouse, she stood on the side of the boat, clasped her hands together, sandwiched the rune paper between the index and middle fingers of both hands, and then chanted a few words, and threw the rune paper into the lake.

I thought that it would be over after doing all this, but Huang Yueling returned to the cab and took out a box again, and there was also a bottle in the box, but Huang Yue changed her middle finger and stuck it in, and then when she pulled it out, her fingers were stained with red powder, which must be cinnabar, but compared to my cinnabar, the color is a little brighter.

Huang Yueling put away the bottle, put the box together with the previous one, and then drew it on the rune paper again.

This time, she drew a brake amulet, this kind of rune I am familiar with, usually some Taoist priests draw to stick on the door is this kind of talisman, intended to drive away evil spirits, so that ghosts and gods dare not pull aside.

I saw Huang Yueling draw five brake repellents in a row, and then she stood up and exhaled, handed me the rune paper and said, "You stick these talismans around the boat, remember, two at the stern, two at the waist, and one at the bow." ”

I took the talisman paper in a daze, but I couldn't take a step.

"Why are you still stunned? Hurry up and post it! Huang Yueling was like a martial arts senior at this time, and said to me with a stern face.

I don't know why, I was a little timid in front of Huang Yueling at this time, I thought that before leaving, my grandmother told me, he asked me to discuss anything with Huang Yueling, and asked me not to underestimate her, now it seems that my grandmother is really not bluffing me, this girl seems to be really capable.

I held out a hand and timidly asked, "That, glue?" ”

Huang Yueling suddenly realized, patted her head, and then took out a box from the bag, I opened it and saw that it was a ball of glutinous rice balls.

"This is glutinous rice paste, save some use, go quickly!"

I was honestly afraid, so I hurriedly ran out of the cab and pasted the rune paper according to Huang Yueling's instructions.

Who knew that when I stood up after pasting the rune paper, I found that the whirlpool began to slowly shrink, and the storm around me seemed to gradually dissipate.

I hurriedly ran back to the cab, only to see Huang Yueling standing aside, with her eyes closed and her mouth muttering.

Brother Zeng still put all his attention on the rudder, and I didn't dare to disturb anyone, so I had to stand next to Huang Yueling, wanting to hear what she was talking about.

But before I could listen carefully, I heard Brother Zeng suddenly shout: "It's done!" ”

Then, Brother Zeng slammed the rudder, and the tense expression on his face also relaxed.

"It's done, it's done! Ah! Brother Zeng shouted again and again, and the fishing boat gradually sailed out of the whirlpool with his shouting.

After the hull of the boat stabilized, Brother Zeng turned around and said to Huang Yueling, who was still with his eyes closed: "It is said that the Jiang family's means on the water are unmatched, I used to think it was a rumor, but I didn't expect to see it with my own eyes today, hehe, it seems that I have also received the favor of the Jiang family!" ”
