No one has any experience in the operation of this wooden sailboat, Zheng Jiuwu is also hurriedly raising the sail and pulling the rope there, these people have only recently started fiddling with the boat, how can such a big guy have fun all of a sudden? Seeing that the small boats were about to rush over, Wang Ling looked at the unfamiliar "antique" class rudder and didn't know where to start, there was no instrument or pointer, everything was so primitive.

The canvas piled up on the cabin is still strong after a long time, and these sails are not like today's professional canvas, which was made by people in ancient times by using cotton and linen and then brushing the outside with tung oil. The advantage of this thing is that it is resistant to corrosion and rain, but the disadvantage is that it is too heavy, and trying to pull it up is simply deadly. But now the poet and the girls had to do their best for their own survival, and they relied on the strength of the group to try with difficulty and clumsiness to accomplish what would have belonged to a seasoned sailor.

Lao Xing, who was standing at the bow of the boat, looked at the "giant ship" a little blankly, he didn't know where these children got this thing, but looking at this posture, they didn't have to run today.

"Wang Ling," Lao Xing shouted to the wooden sailboat with his hands on his waist in the bow of the boat, "go back with me and explain things clearly, there is no point in resisting, I will give you a few minutes to think about it, I don't think you want to pay more price." ”

A slap slammed into the rudder, Wang Ling looked at Lao Xing's look of ambition and had an indescribable disgust in his heart, and the ship had no sign of being able to move, and at this time, it seemed that God was deliberately favoring, the originally dark sky actually began to faintly lightning, and there was a rumbling sound that seemed to begin to slowly attack from far to near, and he had a little hope in his heart......

So he slowly walked out of the cabin, and the boat was already around the iron-hulled ship, and the distance between people could be clearly discerned without lights.

"Lao Xing!" Wang Ling shouted: "People are doing it, the sky is watching, you won't have good results!" ”

"Stop!" Blacksmith Hu was supposed to be keeping vigil for his younger brother tonight, but when he heard that the group of educated youths had run away, he couldn't hold back the anger in his stomach for a long time, and pointed at Wang Ling with a long harpoon and said, "Boy, I want you to bury my brother tonight!" Then they began to prepare to force their way aboard the ship, each wielding a long rope with a hook in front of it, and the rest of the thing was waiting to die as long as it was hung on the side of the ship.

"Horizontal and vertical is a fight!" Wang Ling was ruthless, picked up the kerosene lamp in his hand, and suddenly slammed it into the iron-hulled ship. The kerosene lamp drew a beautiful curve in the air, and the moment it hit the ground, the glass bottle burst instantly, and the fire rose almost instantly. The iron-hulled ship was soon surrounded by the fire, and the small boats around it began to scatter, and it was their eating guys, and some people were desperately trying to fetch water to extinguish the fire.

This kind of sailboat is a non-powered boat, which can only rely on sails, and can be started as long as there is wind. With their firefighting skills, Zheng Jiuwu and the poet have completed the two sails, although Lao Xing knows what the other party wants to do, but he can't stop this stall, the fisherman's feelings for the boat are like a hunter for a shotgun, this is the last mechanical boat on Xuanwu Island, and he can't afford this responsibility.

As the sail began to slowly swell, Zheng Jiuwu kept adjusting the position of the sail, and unlike most understandings, the sailboat does not sail solely with the wind, the direction of the wind is changeable, and usually the destination of the ship is unique. But whether it's downwind, crosswind, or upwind, you can adjust the angle of the sail to get different forces to propel the boat in a single direction.

So when the wind finally came, the sailboat was actually driven and slowly crashed straight towards the small boat of Lao Xing and the others, the control of this thing relied on the rudder and sail at the same time, and Wang Ling and Zheng Jiuwu were both novices, where could they change its course in an instant. The large-volume wooden sailboat ran over the manned boat like a tank, and those who fought the fire began to jump into the sea one after another......

"Human ......" Li Xin opened her mouth wide but didn't dare to scream, she watched as those familiar people were ruthlessly washed into the sea, while Wang Ling and Zheng Jiuwu worked hard to keep the boat from crashing into the reef on the black water cliff.

"Right full rudder ......" Wang Ling almost exhausted his strength to turn the rudder, his body hung on the right side of the rudder to try to make it turn, and Zheng Jiuwu and the poet took the three girls to pull the sail respectively to try to change its position, and only then can I feel how small manpower is in front of nature. At this time, the wind was just rising, so Wang Ling and the others finally turned in the direction of the bow of the boat, and thanks to the small boats that played a certain cushioning role, the hull of the ship finally came sideways before it was close to hitting the mountain, and it was slowly moving forward almost against the cliff......

Finally daring to spit it out, Wang Ling wiped the sweat on his head, glanced back at the raging fire on the sea, he knew that these people would be fine, they had the ability to cope with the consequences of this capsizing after working at sea all year round. But then came the problem, the ship was too old to find any lighting, and it could barely tell the difference with the flickering current in the sky, but when the storm came, who could guarantee that the ship would not have an accident under the control of a novice like them?

The top priority is to find a safe haven, not only to make Lao Xing and the others temporarily unable to catch up, but also to ensure their safety, otherwise I am afraid that I will not survive to live tomorrow's sun when I stumble and run around!

I stumbled and drove the boat out, but the wind and waves gradually increased, and I thought that this kind of wooden sailboat would only be able to sail at a speed of 5-6 knots, but when that thing started running, I realized what it meant to be a loose horse.

After about two cigarettes, the waves and the sea breeze began to sweep the hull, if it were not for the rudder, Wang Ling would have fallen several times, between the scenery and thunder, they were thrown high and fell down, each collision with the sea was followed by the next round of torture, at this time the ship has begun to gradually lose control. Zheng Jiuwu immediately lowered all the sails in turn, and everyone was gathered in the small cabin, and they tied their bodies firmly together with ropes with each other, allowing the repeated process to ravage their nerves.

Nothing could be done but waiting, darkness, fear, and a road with no end in sight, it was the first time they went to sea in the true sense, and they also experienced the ruthlessness of the sea for the first time. The already embarrassed cabin was filled with foul-smelling vomit, and everyone was silent, neither knowing what to do or say, nor what to say, and they were the ants on the boat, and at this moment their fate was no longer up to them. Wang Ling only hoped that this damn storm would pass a little bit earlier, and surviving in this stumble was their only hope......

Since you are looking for a direction and don't need to consume much of your brain cells, you just keep moving forward, don't look back, don't look around, believe in yourself, and you will definitely reach your destination.

When the dazzling morning sun shone into the desolate cabin, Li Xin didn't believe that she was still alive, she only felt that the bones in her body were about to fall apart, and she had a splitting headache and a dry mouth. There were two people piled up in front of him, and he gently pushed and found that it was Wang Ling, Zheng Jiuwu and the poet, and beside her were the remaining three girls, and the old skin was placed in the middle position. Seeing this picture, she couldn't help but be a little moved, at the most dangerous moment, these men still did what they could, at this time, the arms of the three people were intertwined, and they had been using their bodies to protect the weakest ones in the inner circle......

"Hooked, hooked!" Wang Ling was overjoyed, an unknown sea fish was pulled out of the water, Zheng Jiuwu used the steel needle he carried with him to make two furrows, and from the rope to make a thin line to make a hook. They don't need bait to fish this kind of fish, they use Li Xin's head tied to the hook, simulating the swimming of small mollusks to attract fish attacks, a bit like today's fly fishing. I didn't expect it to be very useful, and after a few fish were added in a row, they slice and eat them raw, and now they urgently need to replenish their energy.

The boat didn't know where it was taken by the wind and waves, and all around it was an endless sea, and those winds and waves stopped before dawn, and they were tired all night and fell into a rare sleep in that confusion. The good news is that they escaped victoriously and are still alive. The bad news was that the old skin's situation had worsened after a night of turbulence, and they had lost their bearings, and after eating and cleaning the cabin, they decided to have a small meeting to consider their next move.

After such a toss, Gu Haili and the others insisted on going back and returning to the mainland to find their relatives, and the risk of going back was also in front of them, and it was very likely that from the moment they stepped on land, they would immediately lose their freedom.

"If you go back, you must go back," Wang Ling looked at Lao Pi and said, "He is in urgent need of treatment now, we can't afford to delay, but where can we go?" Which hospital would dare to admit patients without a letter of introduction? ”

"Go to Fujian," Zheng Jiuwu finally got up and said, "Since I promised you, I will do it, and I will arrange the rest." ”
