Chapter 42: Out to Sea
The next day, we came to Sanya port early, boarded the private fishing boat rented in advance, now in this era, there are no freighters and passenger ships to carry us out to sea, so we have to rent a private fishing boat, the captain of the private boat is a native of Sanya, the fishing boat is rented all year round to earn rent, see a few of us are generous, do not hesitate, did not ask where we are going, it was rented to us, but the premise is that the boat has to be driven by him, in case we deceive the fishing boat.

We don't care about one more person, but the premise is that in what direction to sail, he has to listen to us, Niu is really an old fisherman, and he also knows the approximate location of the sea area where we had an accident, and he and the captain control the rudder together, we are very relieved, and the fishing boat has no sails, and modern boats are to be mechanically powered to sail, only need to rely on diesel to maintain power, and the captain figured out that the distance we went to sea this time was not close, so he tied three barrels of diesel fuel to the back of the fishing boat, so that it could be replaced, so a boat of six people went to sea like this.
The weather in August and September in the South China Sea, the sun is particularly hot, we had to hide in the cabin to prevent heat stroke, fortunately the speed of the fishing boat is not slow, facing the gentle sea breeze, blowing on the face is particularly comfortable, lazily very want to doze off.
Speaking of the first time I came to the South China Sea, it was Zhang Dongzi who received me and You Eighteen, then I and You Eighteen were just rookies, and we were assigned to Zhang Dongzi's class, he didn't think of those veterans to bully us, but treated us as brothers, and then taught us all kinds of sailing skills, to be honest, the whole boat, except for You Eighteen, Zhang Dongzi had the best relationship with me.
This time to sea, although I feel uneasy, but compared to the past this time is still full of challenges, the wind has not been seen, but the waves have been experienced, I am ready to deal with everything, last night did not rest well, after all, I came to this sea again, I still have some concerns, the shipwreck scene can still be reproduced in the dream, however, this time our ship has a different crew than before, and I, not the same as before.
I took out the nautical compass left by my grandfather in my pocket and played with it, and the old cat in the back saw it and slipped over to me and asked, "This is the compass of the Pirate King, right?" ā
I nodded, according to the old ghost's words, although the pirate king's compass is precious, but not everyone can use it, since I am the descendant of the third son of the pirate king, then I should be able to use it, but this thing has been by my side for many days, and I still can't study how to use it, and I think the old ghost should know something, but that time he refused to say, it seems that after returning from this trip to the sea, I must visit the old ghost again.
Zhang Dongzi didn't understand the situation, so he sat down next to me and asked, "What pirate king?" Do you understand it, I don't understand. ā
I put away the navigation compass, so the half-real and half-virtual plus the matter of the seven islands told him again, I told Zhang Dongzi, this world is not what we imagined, even if we have been soldiers, have faith, but can not get rid of the real time, I asked him not to panic, calmly faced, this time we are fully equipped, oxygen tubes are ready, if we encounter difficulties, we can't fight home.
Zhang Dongzi was shocked when he heard this, and pondered for a long time before saying, "It turns out that you have experienced so much. When he had finished speaking, he fell into deep thought again.
And the captain of the fishing boat on the side may have muttered a little scared in his heart after hearing what I said, and asked me, "Boss, there won't be any danger in the place we are going to this time, right?" No, you have to add money, you have to add money. ā
I shook my head and said, "Not necessarily. ā
The captain instantly became nervous and said, "It doesn't necessarily mean anything, this is just a small business, and we can't lose our lives." ā
You 18 saw that he was timid, and said angrily: "Since you know that we are going to go to the ocean, why do you still agree to rent a boat, if you don't want to charter it, swim back by yourself." ā
The captain happened to quarrel with You Eighteen, but the old cat patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Ouch, you can rest assured, add money, you must add money, isn't it money, it's a big deal I bought your fishing boat." ā
The captain said in disbelief: "This is what you said, go back and give me more money." ā
On the whole boat, I only trust You Eighteen, and Zhang Dongzi has amnesia after all, the old cat is also a sea explorer, maybe he is playing some ghost idea, Niu really doesn't say a word, the ghost knows what he is thinking, but this captain is cunning, I think he must know some inside information, otherwise he can't know the danger, but he still chooses to go to sea, and uses the unknown danger to blackmail us, so I knocked and asked him: "Okay, this money will be doubled for you when you go back, but the premise is that you have to tell the truth, as for what to say, You yourself understand. ā
The captain was weak-hearted, and he didn't know what I wanted to hear, so he asked, "Ouch, boss, what do you want to know, I must know everything." ā
I shrugged helplessly: "Since you don't say it, then I still won't give you this money." ā
The captain hurriedly stopped me and said, "Don't, boss, I said I said, here's the thing, because I've been renting a boat in Sanya for some years, so I have heard a lot of some things, basically most of the people who rent a boat to go to the far sea, most of them are running for the treasures of Shenlong Island, this is not a secret, but I advise you, it's useless, many people have gone over the years, and in the end they all returned in vain, that's all, gone." ā
You Eighteen was a little annoyed after hearing this, and he scolded: "I said that you fucking know how not to say it, it turns out that with this calculation, you want to cheat money, and you make this money too fucking easy." ā
I signaled to swim eighteen to dissipate his anger, don't be like him, anyway, he has already gone to sea, if he goes back and changes the ship from the new, it is also very troublesome, but I thought about it carefully, if what the captain said is true, then there must be many people who want to go to Shenlong Island, but they definitely don't know the way to enter the island, as for the method of entering the island, will the note left to me by my grandfather be?
To be honest, I suddenly miss Baozi a little, if Baozi is here, he will definitely be able to come up with one, two, three, but Baozi has a family and a mouth, and I don't want to disturb him to reunite with his wife, now we can only rely on ourselves, this old cat is also a family of sea explorers, maybe show him, he can see what clues.
I took out the notebook and asked the old cat to come and take a look, the old cat didn't have a clue for a long time, as long as he shook his head helplessly, even the so-called expert of the old cat couldn't understand it, it seems that the things recorded in this note must not be simple.
To no avail, we had to head south, passing through an inhabited island to resupply and rest.
