Chapter 334: On the Voyage

The morning sun is always full of warmth, and the golden sunlight shines on the sea, like pieces of golden fish scales jumping, dazzling.

After a night of driving, the Adventure had left New York and entered the Pacific Ocean.

This is Ye Xuan's first real voyage to the sea, and in the past 20 years, whether in reality or in movies, he has never been so close to the sea.

"The weather was nice today, the waves were not big, and it was perfect for sunbathing." Ye Xuan was standing at the bow of the ship staring into the distance, and suddenly a voice came from behind him, Ye Xuan turned his head to see that it was a crew member of the Adventure, but this crew member was a little special, he was not a Caucasian who could be seen everywhere in the United States, but a person with the same skin color as Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan had seen him before, a medium Asian figure, about forty or fifty years old, wearing a black cloth gown with the characteristics of the Republic of China, a small round hat on his head, and a pair of cloth shoes on his feet.

"I heard Captain Horn say you're from Huaxia?" With a kind smile on his face that is unique to the Chinese people, he walked over and asked.

"Yes, you too?" For the ordinary and kind Huaxia elders, Ye Xuan has always maintained due respect and asked with the same smile.

"Yes, my name is Cui Yuanqing, my hometown is in Huifeng, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Province, everyone here calls me Lao Cui, if you don't dislike it, just call me Lao Cui!" Lao Cui changed into Huaxia dialect and walked to Ye Xuan's side.

"Hello Lao Cui, my name is Ye Xuan, you can call me by my name, my hometown is in Futai Province." Ye Xuan also introduced himself.

"So we used to be neighbors!" After listening to Ye Xuan's self-reported hometown, Lao Cui smiled and said that Jiangsu, Zhejiang Province and Futai Province are all adjacent to each other.

"yes!" Ye Xuan also smiled slightly, and then said, "Old Cui, how did you come to the United States?" ”

"Me?" Hearing Ye Xuan mention himself, Old Cui paused. Looking at the sea, he said: "I was sold to the United States as a piglet more than 20 years ago, at that time, I was young, the Qing Dynasty had just fallen, there was no food at home, and I was deceived by those foreigners and compradors, so I signed the deed of sale in a daze, and later I came to the United States to know that I was sold, and I dug in the mine for more than three years, and almost died in it." Later, I found a chance to escape, and I ran around in the United States, from Jinshan to New York, and it took more than 20 years, and I only came to work on this ship in the past two years.

Maybe it's because he's in another country, or maybe it's because he finally met a person from the same country, Lao Cui actually confided in Ye Xuan about his past.

"I'm sorry. People are old and always like to nag! Lao Cui quickly realized that he was out of shape, and quickly turned his head and smiled apologetically at Ye Xuan.

"It's fine!" Ye Xuan didn't take these things to heart, and smiled slightly. "Then Lao Cui, have you ever been back?"

"Go back?" Lao Cui was stunned, nodded and shook his head, looked into the distance, and sighed. said: "I want to go back, but I don't dare to go back." ”

Although Lao Cui didn't say it, Ye Xuan could understand Lao Cui's thoughts. After leaving China for more than 20 years, there has not been a year of stability in China over the years, the whole China is in turmoil, warlords are everywhere, and wars are fought from time to time, but I am afraid that now Lao Cui's hometown has long been a matter of people.

Instead of going back to your hometown to be sad, it is better to deceive yourself and leave a memory for yourself.

Ye Xuan thought of his life experience again, and both of them were speechless for a while, looking at the endless sea as far as the eye could see.

"Old Cui, what are you doing?" After a while, Horn's voice came from behind the two of them.

Hearing Horn's voice, both of them came back to their senses, and Lao Cui brought that somewhat humble smile on his face again, and turned his head to look at Horn who came over, "It's nothing, captain, I'm just chatting with Mr. Ye." ”

"Well, it's okay. Old Cui, now you go to the bottom of the cabin to pack up the things underneath. Horn said.

"Okay, Captain, I'll go!" Being able to work on the boat for so long, Lao Cui is also a human spirit, and he knows that Horn must have something to say to Ye Xuan, this is to break himself up, so he nodded towards Ye Xuan and walked into the cabin.

"How did Mr. Ye sleep last night? Still used to it? Seeing Lao Cui leaving, Horn walked to Lao Cui's position just now and spoke.

"It's okay, it's just a little shaky." Ye Xuan smiled.

"Mr. Ye shouldn't go to sea often!" Horn looked at the sea, and a faint smile flashed on the corner of his mouth, "It's the best weather now, the sea is calm, if there is a storm, you won't say that the ship is shaking now." ”

Hearing Horn's words, Ye Xuan smiled slightly and did not answer.

Seeing that Ye Xuan didn't answer, after a while, Horn turned his head and said, "Mr. Ye, you said before that this charter was going in the direction of Sumatra, so now the Adventure is heading there, but does Mr. Ye know the specific location of the island you are going to?" ”

Ye Xuan didn't answer Horn's words in a hurry, but asked, "I don't know how many years Captain Horn has been the captain of the Adventure?" ”

Horn glanced at Ye Xuan suspiciously, and said, "It's been seven years, and since there was the Adventure, I have been its only captain." ”

Speaking of the Adventure, a soft color flashed across Horn's face.

"Then I don't know if Captain Horn, you've been running for so many years, have you ever heard of the island of Skull Island?" Ye Xuan continued to ask.

"Skull Island?" Hearing this name, Horn's eyes suddenly changed, his face sank, and he looked at Ye Xuan and said, "I have heard of this island, it is a very mysterious and terrifying island of death, is Mr. Ye going there?" ”

"Yes, that's right!" Ye Xuan didn't go around in circles with Horn anymore, and said directly: "I don't need you to accompany me to the island, I just need you to send me there, as for how to leave, I will figure it out by myself." ”

Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Horn's suspicious gaze lingered on Ye Xuan's face for a while, "Are you serious?" ”

He went to the island alone, and he didn't have to leave, did he want to survive alone on Skull Island?

"Of course!" Ye Xuan smiled slightly, stretched his waist, and said to Horn: "You should have a chart here, let's go, let's take a look, and by the way, I will show you the location of Skull Island, and I will rely on you to send me there." ”
