Chapter 263: Evil God!
Fang Yuhao asked while working, "Aren't there no coal on other islands?" ”
Duncan, the old sailor, said, "Of course there is, but not as much as Boulder City, and not as good as the quality." When doing business, the emphasis is on economy and money. ”
"That's true." Fang Yuhao pretended to be humbly taught.
In this way, the whole loading work lasted for a week, and the whole big ship was full, and then everyone rested for a while. Fang Yuhao, with his flexible social skills, quickly got along with the sailors.
The sailors' holiday activities consisted of churches, taverns, gambling houses, and brothels.
Of course, Fang Yuhao doesn't eat chicken, but it's not a problem to go along and see the excitement. Many sailors vent frantically in various ways before setting sail, and even if they spend all their savings, they will not feel distressed.
"Without the bonds of family, it's really free." The old sailor Duncan was a little blushing at the young sailors: "Hot, you must be a scholar." You don't even play with women? Boulder City is so prosperous, and all kinds of services are rare and cheap. ”
Fang Yuhao turned his head and couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Mr. Duncan, like you, I already have a wife. And I have a debt to pay off, and I have to save some money. Otherwise I'll be stripped of my soul. ”
"Well, it's true, it's not the same when you have a family. If only my son had learned some aristocratic etiquette, he might be able to seduce a noble girl, so that he would be able to have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life. ”
Fang Yuhao was very polite to everyone, which gave the old sailor a sense of respect. It's a great feeling, as if I've become a big nobleman myself.
"Mr. Duncan, is the Sunshine Sea really dangerous?"
"Ah...... The sunny sea is our final destination. Duncan took a sip of his wine and said, "If, if this voyage really reaches the sunny sea...... You should stay in the cabin and never go out. ”
"Why?"
"You're too young, yes, you're too young...... It's not a good thing to get sunshine too early. Will you be thinking about going there, what Arctic Ocean? Who wants to go! The old sailor took another sip of wine, and looked drunk, and his eyes revealed an inexplicable longing.
"I already have three sons and two daughters, and maybe this is the penultimate time I've been there."
Fang Yuhao: "The penultimate time? ”
"Yes, before I die, I will buy a ferry ticket. I should be able to save up for the ferry ticket. ”
Fang Yuhao said, "Mr. Duncan, have you seen ...... Salt God? ”
"Shh Duncan cocked up an index finger and put it between his lips: "You know what? Emilia, the stone goddess, is the gentlest of deities, and you can think of her as your mother. Her curse, well, is the equivalent of your mother, or your wife scolding you. ”
"However, the curse of the salt god will not only kill you directly, but also ......"
Duncan gestured to his crotch.
"Huh?"
Meaning, the curse of the salt god will also implicate your descendants!
"So, don't talk about the salt god in the ocean, you know?"
Fang Yuhao nodded.
Whining!
The steamer whistled its sailing. It's finally time to get out of here.
Fang Yuhao hurriedly walked out of the cabin, and according to the instructions of the first mate, he retracted and released the gangway, safety net, water baffle, mooring and unmooring, and installed and collected the anti-rat file. Loaded with cargo, the waterline of the cargo ship was very deep, and the steamship "Great Ocean" did not sail fast, so it slowly made its way out of the port.
The dark sky, the pitch black, and the only lighthouse can be seen, but this only light is gradually fading......
Leaving this land, Fang Yuhao suddenly felt that he had left his mother's warm embrace, and there was a strong sense of palpitation.
This discomfort came suddenly.
Soon, Duncan patted him on the shoulder.
"Every newcomer is like this, we are all children of the stone god. Who wants to leave this land? ”
……
Day after day passed.
The endless sea and the view is almost the same every day. The stars in the sky did not move, as if they were eternal. Measuring the current position of the ship according to the astrological signs and the compass has become Fang Yuhao's fixed job.
If it weren't for the fact that the steamship "Great Ocean" was closer to its destination every day, he would have really suspected that the ship would be trapped in the sea forever.
From time to time, glowing fish float in the ocean, looking like ghosts. Most of the creatures here are phototaxis, and their ability to emit light means that they can lure other fish to the bait.
But the headlights on the deck of the ship were never turned on, and Fang Yuhao only used the reflected light from the mirror to scan and reconnoiter the surrounding environment.
Duncan, the old sailor, explained: "It is said that ...... The huge light will attract extremely powerful and difficult sea monsters, and even 10,000-ton ships will easily overturn, so the giant ocean usually does not have its headlights on. ”
"However, the well-equipped Imperial Royal Fleet specializes in turning on its lights to attract sea behemoths. They once caught a golden crab whose carapace was harder than a steel plate, larger than a royal palace, and most importantly, ...... It's just a cub! ”
"The carapace is comparable to a steel plate, how did it kill?" Fang Yuhao wondered.
The bearded first mate licked his lips and answered, "Of course you can kill!" A super cannon with a caliber of more than one meter, a triangular fork weighing a ton, is always able to kill. All I know is that the meat of the golden crab was sold for a sky-high price of 10 pounds a gold coin. The aristocrats tasted the taste of sunshine from it! Alas, if only I could eat some! ”
"If this voyage is successful...... Mr. Captain can become a baron, and he can buy luxury goods at a lower price. Alas, alas......"
The captain happened to get out of the cabin and replied: "This time, one person will have as little as 20 gold coins and as much as 50 gold coins!" And even more! ”
In the face of the long-term darkness, Fang Yuhao felt that everyone's sanity value was slowly decreasing. A desire to return to the mainland is constantly expanding.
The captain remained calm and kept telling interesting things to encourage everyone.
"Hot, if this trip is successful, what are you going to do, continue to stay here? I'm retiring. The captain asked with a smile. After some time, he liked the new young man.
"Ah, I'm going to take a look elsewhere."
Fang Yuhao said with a smile: "See the wider world, and then buy your own cargo ship and do a little business." ”
"The young man wants to buy a boat!" Everyone burst out laughing. Perhaps, everyone here has such a dream.
In this world where the soul is manipulated at will, Fang Yuhao can't help but feel a little strange that he can still accommodate the thing of dreams.
The captain also smiled and said, "Hot...... If you have two thousand, nay, a thousand gold coins, my ship will be yours! My sons are all mediocre, and if I die, I will soon lose my fortune. It's better to let my old buddy go with a reliable person. ”
"Don't say that, Captain. I don't even have a single gold coin in my pocket. I can't make a thousand gold coins in my life! ”
Everyone laughed again.
"That's not necessarily, if you find an uninhabited island, there are antiques from the last century, those wealthy aristocratic professors in the university will definitely pay a sky-high price!"
"You can also go to the bank for a loan, and you can earn back these gold coins with a successful voyage!"
Many people are telling the story of the First Age, when half the day was day and half the day was night. However, the First Age was a long, long time ago.
It's strange that the world is not as messy as it seems. Fang Yuhao felt that this boatload of people was quite interesting.
……
Time passed day by day.
On the 48th day, Fang Yuhao got up as usual and went to the pastor to pray, and he had a day off today.
As time went by, everyone's sperm deteriorated a lot, and the number of sailors who drank and gambled increased. There is great terror in the ocean, and even the most seasoned sailor, when he slowly moves away from land, will give rise to irrepressible panic.
Fang Yuhao walked below the deck, where there were a few kerosene lamps lit and a vegetable patch nearby.
To prevent sepsis, fresh vegetables can be said to be a necessity in sailing.
This vegetable patch is a favorite place for sailors, not only is it full of light, but each person can claim a vegetable.
Growing vegetables can significantly relieve people's psychological pressure, and Fang Yuhao claimed a plant called "wolf fruit". It tastes a bit like a tomato, and all the wolf fruit that grows from this plant is his personal property.
Fang Yuhao got some distilled water from the boiler room, poured it on the "wolf fruit", and then picked a fruit and gave it to Duncan, an old sailor in the same room as him.
"The weather may not be good today, and you can't see the stars anymore."
"yes...... You can go back and get some sleep, it's boring. ”
Duncan was fishing on deck. This kind of environment where you can't see your fingers is accompanied only by a very small kerosene lamp.
The mirror reflected kerosene lights and looked around to avoid colliding with oncoming ships.
"I don't think you'll catch a fish today." Fang Yuhao quipped, because he didn't see the kind of fish that glowed like a ghost.
Today's waves were noticeably bigger, and the hull of the ship was jolting.
Fang Yuhao looked up at the sky, his pupils dilated to the extreme in the darkness. All the stars are gone, which means that the sky is full of dark clouds.
The reference in the sky is gone, and the "Great Ocean" can only rely on experience to estimate and move forward.
"Don't worry, this situation is always going to happen......" Duncan didn't care.
……
This cloudiness lasted for three days, with the waves getting bigger and bigger, and the bumps getting worse.
But it hasn't rained all the time.
The storm has been delayed and has not subsided, and the captain is in a bad mood.
The ship was stocked with too much cargo and the waterline was too deep for it to easily roll over. He was reluctant to throw goods into the sea.
“…… Otherwise, if you don't talk about running in vain, you will lose money! ”
"yes, that's weird. I don't feel very good in my heart, the magnetic needles are messy. ”
In the captain's room, the captain, first mate, and several senior executives are discussing countermeasures.
A wizard pulls out a human soul and ties it to a piece of fresh flesh with his hair. He danced with his hands and chanted a spell in his mouth, and the crystal ball glowed dimly.
"Duncan, throw this thing into the sea!"
Duncan, the old sailor, hurried, plopped, and threw the piece of meat off the ship.
The crystal ball presents a black-and-white image that is fed back from the human soul and appears to be coming from another plane.
The captain's pupils dilated slightly, and the strange smile inherent in the archwizard's face disappeared. This image made everyone present ooze goosebumps one after another.
A ......
A huge eye!
It looks strange, more than ten times the diameter of a steamer!
It stared at the ship motionlessly!
The Great Ocean, as if grasped by an invisible hand, kept circling in circles. In other words, in the past few days, the ship has not moved forward at all!
