Chapter 722: Arriving at the Devil's Sea
"Sudden death? Why? Was there anything unusual about them before? Ah Lian asked. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The old boatman sighed and shook his head: "I don't know, we were also terrified when we realized that they were dead. Someone went up to examine their bodies, but no wounds were found. Later, some people asked us if there was anything unusual about them before, and we thought about it, and the most abnormal thing was the red-clothed faceless woman we saw in the Devil's Sea. ”
They were a little silent after hearing this, they had also seen too many strange things, judging by their experience, this kind of thing might probably really have something to do with the faceless woman in red!
A few seconds later, Manli suddenly asked nervously, "Master, is that faceless woman in red a ghost?" ”
At the mention of the word "ghost", Lifeng and they obviously felt that the atmosphere was a little strange, but they didn't speak, just looked at the old boatman.
And the old boatman was not in a hurry to answer, he took a long puff of dry smoke, and after he was addicted, he spit out a few smoke rings, looking at the smoke rings that gradually spread and disappeared, the old boatman stayed for a moment, and then said: "I don't know if that woman is a ghost or not, in short, it is very dangerous, like an ominous sign, and someone will definitely die when you meet her." ”
"There are more than 50 people on the ship, and more than 30 have died, why are you still alive?" Yuan Li is really open-mouthed, and asks whatever he wants.
When he asked, Ah Lian quickly knocked him and quietly scolded: "Big man, can you speak, it's too rude to say this!" ”
Yuan Li was a little wronged, but he didn't say much.
On the other hand, the old boatman seemed to know that Lifeng had a special identity, and he didn't mean to be angry at all, so he laughed twice and laughed at himself: "I don't know, we have a bad life, maybe people don't like it." ”
After he said this, he was about to take a few puffs of dry tobacco, but he found that he had finished sucking it, so he tapped the hull with his cigarette stick, which seemed to be a little unpleasant.
He turned his head to look at them and smiled, because of his long-term smoking, his teeth were black and yellow, which was very unsightly. After laughing, he was relieved: "But you don't have to worry, at our current rate, we will not arrive in the Devil's Sea in two days, and it will still be safe during this period." ”
"I still don't get it." Ah Bing asked: "Since that Devil's Sea is so dangerous, and you are so afraid, why don't you go around it and break through?" ”
The others thought the same, and their eyes were focused on the old boatman again.
The old boatman was not surprised, and explained: "We also want to go around, if we can go around, even if it takes a little more time, it is better than the dead, but the key is that this devil's sea area is like being cast by someone's magic spell, no matter how you go around, you can't get around, if you want to go to the Atlantis continent, no matter how you go, you will inexplicably reach the devil's sea area." ”
Speaking of this, the old boatman shook his head: "So, we can't help it, the communication between the two continents always needs to be carried out, every time we go to sea, we will reserve our physical strength in advance, and when we reach the Devil's Sea, we will concentrate on the outbreak and rush over as quickly as possible, maybe we can avoid disasters." ”
It turns out that for this reason, a few people from the wind are looking at each other, and this world is not simple.
At this point in the conversation, the information they wanted to know was basically in hand, so they didn't talk any further. The old boatman was really a big smoker, and he didn't know where he found a pinch of tobacco leaves and e-liquid, and smoked it with a horn.
And Lifeng sat on the boat for so long, his legs felt a little uncomfortable, he stood up and stretched, making a gesture of hugging the blue sky.
On the ocean of the Shura Sea, the sky is clear, the white clouds are blooming, the sun is obliquely shining, sparkling, and there are birds circling and playing from time to time, like a natural picture.
It's just that under this beautiful scenery, there is an undercurrent hidden, which makes it difficult for people to enjoy it quietly. The existence of the Devil's Sea is really like a puddle of black ink on a beautiful picture scroll, which is quite disgusting.
Suddenly, Lifeng noticed those frolicking birds, and his mind moved, and he turned around and asked, "Master, let me ask you a question, rowing in the devil's sea is dangerous, so if you fly over, will it be dangerous?" ”
"Fly over?" The old boatman was a little stunned, then smiled again, and said, "Seeing that the birds here are very happy, it should be no danger to fly over." But if you think about this kind of thing, forget it, who will fly......"
He said the same, but his perspective was based on the science and technology of this world. They are different from the wind, and after listening to this speculation, they look at each other, and they seem to be able to see the smile in each other's eyes, after all, they have optical aircraft.
However, this is already sailing in the sea, and they have no intention of temporarily changing the mode of travel, just to test what the reputation of this devil's sea is.
In the following time, when they occasionally had any problems, they would come up and ask the old boatman, and the old boatman was solid enough, and the problems he knew were definitely not hidden.
In this case, it soon came night. The technology of this world is not as good as that of modern earth, and it does not dare to sail in the Shura Sea at night, so it simply stops all the ships to rest.
There is a saying that the old boatman said is very right, before reaching the Devil's Sea, the Shura Sea is still very safe, and they have been on the boat for two days without seeing any accidents.
In the blink of an eye, the third day came, and according to the old boatman's budget, the fleet was about to reach the Devil's Sea on this day.
When the fleet began to sail in the morning, the wind was clearly felt, and the whole fleet fell into a tense atmosphere. The old boatman, who had always been calm two days ago, had a tense face, he was a great smoker, but now he threw his cigarette stick aside, and the penny was replaced by a large area of oars, and he was waiting for it.
Lifeng has a special identity, but they are not asked to row together, but they just feel the atmosphere on the sidelines.
In this tense situation, more than an hour passed in a hurry, and just as he was looking out from the wind, he suddenly heard the sound of a horn coming from the front of the fleet.
The voice was low, but it traveled far away, and in an instant the entire fleet received the signal.
"The Devil's Sea has arrived, sit tight!"
When the old boatman heard the sound of the trumpet, his face was so heavy that he almost condensed the water, and after he shouted, he began to row hard, regardless of whether they were ready for the wind. The two seemingly casual young men before also changed their previous laziness, and almost took out the strength to feed, rowing frantically.
Under the madness of the three of them, the wooden boat suddenly increased its speed, more than several times faster than before.
Lifeng turned his head to look at the other wooden boats, and found that the boatmen on these boats seemed to be crazy, rowing at a high frequency, for fear that they would fall half a point.
The entire fleet was dull for two days, and finally the atmosphere began to explode at this moment, and the so-called "forced crossing of the Shura Sea" was only seen at this moment.
