Chapter 276: Good helmsman
Looking at the calm sea, I couldn't help but be a little confused, were the mermaids and mountain shadows that appeared just now real or Sumeru phantoms?
I was in great confusion when someone rushed over and hugged me.
I felt a sudden tightness on my shoulders, but I was startled, and when I turned my head, I saw that Lao Tang was looking at me with excitement on his face.
He hugged my shoulders so hard that he couldn't squeeze me into a twist.
I frowned at the time: "Well, what are you?" ”
Lao Tang grinned and went straight at me: "Lao Du didn't lie to me, you are really extraordinary!" Hahahaha, I didn't expect the banshees to be scared away by you. ”
No, in his eyes, is it a great thing to shake off those mermaids?
These things, in terms of danger, are far inferior to ordinary black zombies, what's the matter, when they come to him, they have become so great evil?
It is said that after my master got off the ship, how weak the fighters he invited to the ship were.
Lao Tang couldn't help himself with excitement, even the captain who had always been calm was blindly excited, he first gave Lu Shengcai a bear hug, thanked Lu Shengcai for pulling him just now, and then opened his arms and rushed towards Yunsheng.
Yunshang told him to get out of the way.
Then he came running over again and gave me a bear hug.
No, these two people are so enthusiastic, so enthusiastic that I can't breathe a little bit.
It was only later that I heard Lao Tang say that this was a hundred years ago, but if there were clouds over the ship, then the ship would inevitably be shipwrecked, and even if a few people on the ship could get away with it, the whole ship would inevitably suffer heavy losses.
I don't know how much luck is involved in how much luck we can get out of the clouds today.
Although the biggest danger has been resolved, but after all, this is still a sea of fog, there are countless reefs along the way, and there is no sloppiness in the meantime, and the captain said that when the sea of fog is out, they will hold a special banquet for me, but in between, they must put all their energy on the voyage.
The so-called shark pond does not mean that the area is full of sharks, on the contrary, there are not only no sharks, but also ordinary aquatic plants and shellfish.
It is so named because the sea is filled with huge tartars, like shark teeth, layer upon layer.
Beneath the tartar-strewn surface of the sea is extremely hard rock, the deepest part of the sea is less than 20 meters, and the shallowest point is only about 3 meters.
Steel, formerly known as Grande, is the most bizarre helmsman on this ship, if it is on a calm sea, as long as he is at the helm, the ship will definitely deviate from the course, I don't know where to run, but once he reaches the shark pond, he will become a skilled boatman, only by letting him take the helm, we can cross that sea smoothly.
Lao Tang said that in the past ten years, the Iron Lady has almost never been cut by the reef, but thanks to the blessing of steel, other ships will be more or less scratched when crossing the shark pool, but under the control of steel, this ship has never suffered the slightest injury in the shark pool.
In a sense, Steel may be the helmsman of the world's best, but on another level, he may also be the helmsman of the world's silliest.
The above sentence is not what I said, it was said by Lao Tang.
As for why the people on the ship call him steel...... In fact, in other people's mouths, his nickname should be "gold coin", but when this word reached my ears, it became "steel", and the reason why everyone called him so came from Balzac's "Eugenie Grande", in which the famous miser is also called by such a name.
And according to the chef, Gang is really very picky on weekdays, and he lives up to the name of a miser.
However, the reason why Steel slammed the door was not because he loved money, he saved money to support the orphanage he and his wife opened.
Because of the presence of steel, when the boat enters the shark pond...... I almost threw up by him.
The rudder of the pallet was so fierce that as soon as the ship entered the shark pond, the steering wheel was under his control, and it spun around at a very fast speed, carrying the whole ship with various tail flicks.
I could stand it if the hull was just tilting back and forth, but I couldn't stand it when the hull was twisting in the most terrible way.
It was a world that turned upside down, and I felt that my internal organs had been adjusted by him, and that feeling, really, not to mention how uncomfortable it was.
Originally, I wanted to take a closer look at this legendary shark pond, what kind of strange magnificence it is, but unfortunately because the person at the helm is steel, I patronized the boat and held my breath, and I couldn't take a closer look at it at all.
Only occasionally can I see a large pile of sharp tartar, as well as some shipwrecks.
During this time, it seemed that a sea eagle was seen passing through the sky, but it was not seen clearly, only a vague shadow flashed above the hull.
Why do I hold my breath, you ask?
If I don't hold my breath, I won't be able to hold my breath, I'll really vomit.
Except for the three of us, everyone on board seemed accustomed to such bumps, and when the Iron Lady finally crossed the shark pool, I stood up on my knees, and saw the captain holding the mast and drinking again.
Before the boat entered the shark pond, he had not yet opened the lid of the bottle, but now he had drunk himself again.
Apparently, he had been drinking while the boat was twisting in the shark pond.
At this moment the tartar and mist in the shark pond were finally thrown far behind, and the captain laughed and shouted loudly: "Tell the cook that there will be a feast on the ship tonight, and celebrate that we can finally get business from the sea market again!" ”
At that time, Lao Tang was rushing to my side, and he happened to pass by the captain, so he couldn't help but complain: "Can't you drink less?" ”
The captain shouted at him: "Love of wine is a virtue. ”
"Uncle Mei," Lao Tang scolded in a low voice, while quickly approaching me and holding my arm: "Are you okay?" ”
I waved my hand: "It's not good at all, I damn it, the steel is too fierce, I just felt like I was about to hang." ”
Lao Tang raised his hand and patted me on the back: "It's okay, just wait until you get used to it." ”
Listen to him, we will have to cross the shark pond often in the future.
Alas, it's really going to be my own life.
At this time, I heard Lao Tang say: "After the shark pond, there will be no wind and waves for the next three days, and after three days, we will enter the sea market through Luogu Gorge." ”
I was a little puzzled: "Uncle Tang, what did I say about you...... Speaking for a while, it tastes like a Beijing film, and then it is standard Mandarin. ”
Hearing me say this, Lao Tang wondered even more: "I speak in English, why do you still hear the taste of Beijing films?" ”
Me: "......"
Forget it, that's the end of the topic.
