The high, fierce waves, wave after wave, rose into the air, and kept rushing towards them with their huge mouths open, as if to bite the winds that teased them. Enraged, they had a worse sense of direction, and crashed headlong into the raised reefs, shattering into droplets of water and swallowing them up in the water.
Those waves who were lucky enough to escape this catastrophe continued to rush towards the front, and finally hit the protective rock on the shore of the island as well, causing a splash of water, and unwillingly roaring angrily, even Gu Gongzi They could still hear the roaring sound on this mountain, and its sound was no less than lightning and thunder.
There are also some waves, which have been teased in the middle of the sea, and they pounce directly on each other, splashing even higher, and finally the novice is in the front of the water.
The wind is howling and pulling, there are dark clouds on it, lightning and thunder, and there are layers of huge waves one after another, with bursts of magnificent roars, looking at death as home, and rushing forward without stopping, sure enough, it is a little like the thousands of troops and horses fighting together, seeing that Gu Gongzi They are a little enthusiastic, and their hearts seem to have rushed together with the rushing waves, and they have forgotten the terrifying lightning in the sky for a while.
The nine-foot man couldn't help but sigh: "Strong! It's been a long time since I've seen this magnificent angry wave crashing into the air, which makes me unconsciously think of the tragic scene of fighting the enemy army in the border country before, and I really miss it! ”
The four of them continued to look at the pillar of incense for about an hour, and the nine-foot man looked up at the dark clouds that did not disperse overhead, shook his head and said, "Taking advantage of the rainstorm in the future, let's go down to eat first, and then let's go to the coastal pier to have a look." The landscape seen there, although it is not as open and spectacular as we see on it, can be seen more clearly, and the sound of angry waves crashing on the shore is much louder, which can make you feel like your blood is boiling. ”
Lu Gongzi waited for this sentence to wait for a long time, his pale face suddenly flushed with a hint of excitement, and in the raging wind, he hugged one person in one hand and walked cautiously down the mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, the man in the hat he had met earlier, also dressed in a robe, watched them come down, his swarthy face showed a happy smile, squeezed out a mouthful of white teeth, and walked towards them, and led them back to his house.
Walking into the village in the middle of the island, there are only a dozen or so houses scattered in front of them, all of which are made of some large stones, and even the roof, which is different from other places, is directly made of the sound of the stone to form a spire, or made of some thick wooden planks.
Before he could enter the house, a sudden rain fell again, and was disturbed by the wind, and it was smashed obliquely. The man in the hat walked up to a small stone house and patted the closed wooden door.
"Squeak! Boom! ”
A crack in the door was opened, and the wind directly squeezed the door open and smashed on the stone wall, smashing the door panel with a bang. When the four of them entered, the slanting rainstorm had already wet most of the house, and the man in the hat desperately pushed the door back and tied it with a wooden stick.
The door was closed, the wind had subsided, the house was crowded, and the dark room suddenly seemed hot and stuffy.
Caring about it so much, Gu Gongzi and the others took a long breath, took off the strange-looking clothes and hats, and some clothes on their bodies were still inevitably soaked by the rain.
The aunt, dressed in strange clothes and combed with pigtails, trotted to the backyard to get a few clean face towels, handed them over, looked at these fair-skinned little boys with a grin, and said a lot.
Several sons were confused when they heard it, but Gu Gongzi still smiled kindly: "Thank you!" ”
The man in the hat smiled and translated for them: "My lady said that the boys have so white skin! If your clothes are wet, you should dry them quickly, so as not to catch a cold, and she will boil a few bowls of ginger tea for a few sons to ward off the cold. ”
The three of them saluted and thanked the aunt again, causing the aunt to hurriedly return the salute, beckoning them to go to dinner, and run back to the backyard by herself.
Gu Gongzi looked at the small table, densely stacked with pots and dishes, so many dishes, and there was no place to put the bowls. The main food in the dish is all sea treasures, except for a few bowls of eggs and chicken, the others are clams, fish and shrimp, kelp and other seafood, as well as the five-color glutinous rice with the peel.
The master please eat, the ancient prince and the mountain boy who wiped the water droplets grabbed the chopsticks, and specially looked for those foods that were not fish to eat, only the nine-foot man and the road boy sandwiched those fish and shrimp from time to time.
Gu Gongzi nodded and praised: "This meal is delicious, refreshing and sticky, and there is a fruity fragrance!" ”
The man in the hat stood aside and didn't eat it, looked at it for a while, and asked strangely, "Why don't these two sons eat these seafood?" I've called for you, and it's so delicious, you can taste it. ”
Gu Gongzi said embarrassedly: "Thank you for this uncle's kindness, we are a little unaccustomed to it." ”
The man in the hat patted his forehead and laughed: "Presumably, these two sons are from the inner city, and they are not used to eating these slightly fishy seafood, so I don't hide it from you, I used to be an inland person, and I was also unaccustomed to eating these seafood at first." In this way, I will mix some sauce and marinade for you, so that you can reduce some of the salty smell, and then you can taste it again with confidence. ”
After a while, he came over with a small dish of swarthy sticky, put it in front of Gu Gongzi and Shan Gongzi, took a snow-white fish slice and dipped it in, and handed it to Gu Gongzi.
"Childe, you can try it now, and I promise that there will be no more fishy smell that you can't get used to!"
The silver was given by Gu Gongzi, and the man with the hat believed that Gu Gongzi was the main figure among the three, and he was a little stammered.
Gu Gongzi looked at the purple fish meat on the top of the pulp, frowned, but still picked it up and put it in his mouth to try, learned the lesson of the last time, he only licked it lightly with his tongue this time.
Fresh and tender - refreshing, the taste is just right, and sure enough, there is no disgusting heavy fishy smell, only a hint of umami. Gu Gongzi's tight brows suddenly opened up, and he swallowed the fish meat and chewed it slowly.
The son of the mountain looked at it for a long time, only after sandwiching a piece of fish, learning from the man in the hat just now and dipping it in sauce to eat, he took a bite gently, and it was really delicious, and he immediately became eyebrows fluttering, and he tried the taste one by one with a few types of seafood dipped in sauce and marinade.
At this time, the aunt in the backyard with many pigtails brought a wooden basin with four bowls of mud juice on it, and said again, and the man in the hat smiled: "A few sons, this ginger soup is boiled, and you won't catch a cold after drinking it." ”
Gu Gongzi shook his head and didn't drink those spicy things, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your kindness, I still don't need it!" Those of us in the rivers and lakes are stronger and less susceptible to these colds. ”
The aunt was a little disappointed and returned to the backyard with the hot soup.
After trying a few dishes, Gu Gongzi was very interested in the black sauce and asked the host to teach him how to make it. The man in the hat did not shirk at all, led Gu Gongzi towards the kitchen, and put those condiments into the dishes according to the amount, and there was nothing special, nothing more than some sauce and vinegar condiments.
The food was full, and Gu Gongzi was satisfied with another ingot of silver and put it on the table.
The dark-skinned man in the hat lit up his eyes when he looked at the silver-white thing, but he still reluctantly handed the silver back to Gu Gongzi and said, "This son is not welcome, just now Gongzi bought so many coconut fruits from me, and this meal is my invitation." ”
Gu Gongzi pushed the silver back, shook his head and said, "How can it be done!" We have to pay for everything we eat in the restaurant. ”
The man in the hat looked at the silver in his hand excitedly, scratched his scalp in embarrassment and said, "It's just, even if you pay, it's not worth so much silver, how about the sons eat a few more meals at my place?" Bring some more to the boat and keep them. ”
Gu Gongzi nodded and said, "That's very good, let's go and see the huge wave of rage." ”
Lu Gongzi grabbed him and prayed: "It's raining and the tide is loud outside, I feel a little sleepy, let's rest and take a look." ”
The man in the hat said: "There are only two narrow beds in my room, if the sons don't dislike the roughness, they can go and rest." ”
Gu Gongzi said: "This is very good, Brother Lu, you can rest here for a while, and then we will go and see this rare tide." ”
Lu Gongzi hurriedly grabbed Shan Gongzi and said, "That mountain brother accompanies me, I'm a little scared!" ”
The mountain boy looked at the ancient prince, and then at the road boy, and nodded helplessly: "Okay, then I will rest with you for a while." ”
Gu Gongzi and the neatly dressed nine-foot man pushed open the door, and suddenly the wind blew wildly, blowing Gu Gongzi lightly, and they were all a little unstable on their feet, but the nine-foot man stood like a rock, not moving at all.
The nine-foot man looked impatient, and pulled Gu Gongzi and hurried away in the torrential rain.
The man in the hat held on to the stone wall, and saw them running under the torrential rain at a speed as fast as a galloping horse, and disappeared in an instant, nodding and admiringly: "Sure enough, he is a first-class master in the rivers and lakes!" In this strong wind, you can run so fast. ”
I couldn't see them, so I quickly locked the door. The two of them were brought into the bedroom by his wife to rest.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
Halfway through, Gu Gongzi and the two heard the loud sound of angry waves crashing on the shore. The figure swept quickly, and the nine-foot man directly grabbed Gu Gongzi and stood on the stone bank a few feet in front of the coast, and the wind blew the two of them to shake their clothes.
Standing at such a close distance, listening to the endless roar of the huge waves crashing on the shore, Gu Gongzi felt that his ears were deafening.
What's even more exciting is that the huge waves several feet high rushed in, as if they were going to swallow them together, but they hit the reef of the pier first, shattered into a mist in the sky, and slowly drifted down. Before they could completely float down, a wave behind them crashed into them fiercely. And so on and so forth.
Gu Gongzi looked at the waves several feet high and was a little distracted, thinking that at the beginning, he couldn't even lift a small bucket of water, and the huge waves in front of him were so high, they had to weigh thousands of catties? This smash falls, and you can't smash people into pulp!
This storm and waves are still fierce enough! Even if there are thousands of troops and horses, I am afraid that they will not be as powerful.
This hurricane lasted for two whole days before the clouds gradually dissipated and the tide receded.
Lu Gongzi, who was aggrieved and nested in the narrow stone house of the man in the hat, woke up early in the morning, saw the sun shining in, and immediately ran out excitedly, looking at the long-lost sun above his head and said: "You guy, where are you hiding these days!" ”
He almost forgot that he hated it a few days ago.
Packing their bags, the four of them were ready to embark on their journey again, followed by the man with a hat, pushing his wheelbarrow, which was piled with roast chicken and other delicious dry food.
The poor food in the man's house has long been swept away by the nine-foot man, and the dry food piled up on the wheelbarrow frame was all purchased by the man in the hat from the neighbor's house.
Gu Gongzi looked at the sea in front of him, the wind was blowing lightly, and the microwave was rippling, who could have imagined that just two days ago, it was still as fierce as tens of thousands of wild lions with teeth and claws, roaring like thunder.
The seaside dock, where the boat they had chartered had returned, was no longer alone, with a few fishing boats parked sparsely around, as well as two passenger boats.
I don't know where the usually cold-faced boss hid the ship when the storm just started.
As soon as the wheelbarrow arrived, the boat owner and the boat lady came down and helped Gu Gongzi carry those things. There were many people with great strength, and one of the nine-foot men carried two large bags up, and the three of them only walked twice before carrying the things into the cabin.
Not long after getting on the boat, Lu Gongzi became interested, yawned a lot, and wanted to drag the two of them to sleep together to no avail, so he had to hide in the cabin to rest.
"I didn't expect to be so tired when I came out to play, it's so boring!"
Lu Gongzi muttered in a low voice, and lay down on the mat with his clothes to sleep, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional in his heart.
This time I came out with Gu Gongzi and them, I thought it would be fun, but I didn't expect that the boat was rocking the waves, thunderstorms and huge waves, and he had to climb mountains and wade through waters, not to mention that he was not stable in sleep, and he was so tired that he was going to die, he was already a little unbearable.
When he was on Hidden Spirit Island, Shan Gongzi had already helped him apply ointment to his blistered feet, and he had been working hard for two days to get better.
It's just that for the sake of face, in order to be competitive, Lu Gongzi gritted his teeth and didn't mention the matter of the return trip, but just urged them to rest for a while, but he didn't urge them into a state of rest, but he sent himself to see Zhou Gong every time.
At first, I thought it was fun to sit on this kind of boat that rocked from side to side, but gradually I got bored, and everything had to be solved in this small boat, especially some common things in life.
Gu Gongzi, they are now a little bored looking at the gorgeous scenery overseas, but fortunately, there are well-informed nine-foot men who tell some stories from time to time, which makes them less tasteless.
The owners took turns at the helm, and the boat traveled for two days and nights before it reached a larger island.
From afar, I looked at the lush greenery on the island, a piece of turquoise like a dai, just looking at it was more beautiful and tall than the Qianling Island that I climbed up a few days ago.
Gradually, they got closer, and there were boats passing around the boat. Among them, there are many oversized and extremely ornately decorated pleasure boats.
When the ship entered the dock, the main location was already full of boats, and the owner had to dock his own boat in the most remote corner.
This time, Gu Gongzi did not charter the owner's boat again, because the nine-foot man said that this kind of small boat could not reach the other land across the ocean that he wanted to go to.
Gu Gongzi was quite curious about another continent across the ocean, which happened to be the eastern road he expected, even if he couldn't find what he was looking for there, he had to see the unique scenery there, such as deserts and snowfields.
The four of them simply packed up the package and continued on the road, the mountain of coconut fruit piles and the cart of dry food on the boat had already been wiped out by the monster of the nine-foot man, and the owner of the boat, who had always looked cold-faced, was a little surprised, and even praised him for his large appetite. Only Gu Gongzi complained repeatedly, slandering him in his heart that his appetite was simply better than that of a cunning beast.
