Chapter 4 Ghost Island Tour
I opened the package and found that it contained something that couldn't be more "normal" for me. A unique set of armor, a brand new chest pouch, and a regular pistol with two magazines of bullets.
This is too different from what I thought before, and I took out a look of disbelief and looked at Jiang Shaoyan and the iron donkey.
I asked bluntly, "This trip to Ghost Island?" Why don't you pay so much attention to it? ”
Jiang Shaoyan answered the question, and suddenly felt a sense of melancholy, saying that he could go to Ghost Island to talk about it.
The moment he finished speaking, the boat suddenly jolted a few times, Jiang Shaoyan was more concerned about this, and immediately got up and went out to find the captain.
The iron donkey originally accompanied Jiang Shaoyan to get up, but it was only delivered to the door. During this period, I pondered and felt that Jiang Shaoyan's words contained too many meanings.
I was closer to the Iron Donkey, and when we were the only ones left in the cabin, I asked him to tell me what else I didn't know about this trip.
In fact, to be honest, the iron donkey also deceived me just now, at least because he didn't tell the truth, so he took me on the boat. But now that this is the time, there is no need for him to lie to me anymore.
He closed the cabin door, walked back and sat down beside me, and first stretched out two fingers to emphasize, "There are two ships going to sea this time, and we are the second." ”
I didn't say right, we were the only boat docked at the pier just now. I shook my head to show that I didn't understand.
Tie Donkey said in detail, "Since the end of the year, Chen Shiyu has been moving, and he has been sending people to monitor the provincial department, especially the every move of the special case team, and less than half an hour after we came to Haike City, an informant reported that the whereabouts of the wolf baby commando had been discovered." ”
I remember the name of the wolf baby commando, and I also know that even the iron donkey is afraid of them for three points, and even this group of people has a feeling that Chen Shiyu is the trump card at the bottom of the box.
It's right to think about it, our special case team has taken the Holy Land and the Corpse Country successively, and now it is targeting the ghost island, Chen Shiyu is not in a hurry.
I didn't rush to ask anything, but after thinking about it, I had a guess, "Could it be that these two ships set off from different places one after another, and the first ships were under the guise of confusing Chen Shiyu?" ”
The iron donkey praised me for being smart, and pointed out the window, saying that today's rainstorm was unpleasant, but it helped us a lot.
I nodded, and then asked, "Which island does Onishima refer to?" Let's drive this ship over, how many days will it take? ”
I actually don't think it's difficult to answer, especially with Jiang Shaoyan's old and spicy energy, I can't make this trip accurate to the hour?
But the iron donkey frowned and replied, "I don't know the specific coordinates of the ghost island, I only know the general route, this time I went to sea, in addition to avoiding Chen Shiyu, there is also the element of luck." ”
I was surprised, I didn't think it was quite like Jiang Shaoyan's style of doing things. The iron donkey didn't want to go any further, and thunder began to thunder in the sky.
The thunder in the south, especially in Hainan and so on, is more scary, and it always makes people feel that the thunder here is very close to the ground.
The iron donkey advised me to go to sleep together, save up my strength, and wait for the next news.
We went out of the captain's room together. Captain Lu was very interesting enough to not let us stay in the sailor's cabin, there was only one first mate and no second mate on this ship. We stayed in the second mate's room.
There are three small beds separated by each other, tight, but comfortable to lie on.
The two of us didn't wait for Jiang Shaoyan, and rested first. After a while, the iron donkey began to snore, and I really couldn't sleep, lying on my side, smoking intermittently.
It's not that I'm disobedient, it's that I've never been on a boat since I was a child, and although it's not very bumpy on this big boat, I always have a feeling of rippling my body.
Jiang Shaoyan didn't come back this night, I didn't fall asleep until dawn, and the next morning, the rainstorm was gone, and it was a sunny day. The iron donkey led me up and down the deck.
We were nominally the second officer of the ship, but we didn't do anything about it. Anyway, when those sailors saw us, they all shouted at the second officer of Tie and the second officer of Leng .
I don't really know how to assign duties on the ship, just by personal feeling, we are both second officers, which seems a little funny. But like those sailors, they didn't care about it.
In the morning, everyone was not busy, and the iron donkey asked the sailors to introduce the ship. He said it very professionally, what is the total load capacity, the captain, the width of the ship, the maximum draft, etc. I don't know this, I know that this ship is very bullish, and it is definitely qualified for this trip to Ghost Island, and this ship has a name, called Iron Anchor. Other than that, I forgot everything he said, almost in and out of the left ear.
We also saw an interesting incident where some sailors seemed bored and set up a game at the stern of the ship. In fact, it is to set up a large wooden barrel more than half a person high as a table, and five or six people play pai gow around it.
They don't smoke cigarettes either, they use old-fashioned snuff boxes. I didn't understand how old-fashioned and inconvenient snuff boxes were, but when I wanted to smoke on the deck, I realized how hard it was. It's too windy here, so I lit a cigarette and didn't take two puffs, and I was all eaten by the wind.
In addition to playing Pai Gow, they occasionally tugged at a few bundles of rope hanging from the stern of the boat. I noticed that the ends of the rope were all in the water, and it looked like a garment covered in blood.
I used my brain to guess if they were doing the laundry. Because the horsepower of the boat is very high, and the speed is very fast, in this case, the clothes are washed in the seawater, and it is not better to get it cleaner than washing in the washing machine.
But the iron donkey knew more and told me that they were fishing with their clothes.
I was borrowing a snuff box and trying to take two puffs of cigarettes, but the smell of smoke was so strong that I almost choked on the iron donkey's words, and even choked on the wind.
What kind of international joke do I have in my heart, fishing with clothes? Is there any scientific basis for this? I teased him, pointing to my pants and saying, "Put my pants down?" Let's catch a giant swallow ba, just disemboweling and scraping the scales, stewed and ate it at night. ”
The iron donkey smacked me, saying that it was terrible to read less, and he pulled it up against a rope and asked me to help.
I worked hard with him, and when the clothes were brought up, I noticed that some of them had holes in them.
The iron donkey pointed to the hole and said, "These are all bitten by sharks, among the sailors, they have a nickname called sea wolves, they are bloodthirsty, and once they are hungry, they will also be interested in bloody clothes." ”
I agree with that, after all, these holes are ironclad evidence. The iron donkey threw down the bundle of torn clothes again, and while clapping his hands and cleaning the dust from his hands, he said to me, "The little shark will certainly not be able to swallow the clothes, but when it encounters a large shark, once it is hooked, it will be a small fortune, and the whole body is full of treasures, the meat can be eaten, and the rest is kept in the cold storage, and when they come ashore, the sailors will sell it, and then share the money together, and it will be regarded as an additional income." ”
I know more about things I don't know, but I also think of another thing in passing, this is the deep sea, there are a lot of sharks, and our ship must not have an accident, otherwise we will have to let the sea wolves slaughter.
In the evening, we, who were not on duty, gathered in the restaurant to eat. The meals on this ship are also rich, with four dishes and one soup, and meat. In particular, sailors have big shoulders and round waists, and their meals are not quantitative, so they are mainly well-fed and well-fed.
Those of us who are officials are all gathered together, and the other sailors are all together.
If you want me to say, there were few leaders on this ship, and a small table was enough to set up a small table in the dining area of the officials, but I didn't expect that this time, a total of three tables would be set up.
In addition to the three more of our second officers, there are also six third ......, of course, they are not really third officers, and one of these six people is a woman, and they should all be Jiang Shaoyan's subordinates.
I'm a little interested in that woman, but not in a relationship. Everyone called this woman Mary, and she looked a bit of a mixed race, and I observed that when she held the chopsticks, the side of her thumb and index finger were black, which was a thick callus.
I remember people who love to play with guns, it's normal to have a calloon on the index finger, but Mary's thumb still has a calloon, and the distribution area is so special, I suspect that she is good at using a very strange weapon.
The first time we met, I couldn't ask directly, I couldn't say, "Big sister, what do you usually do, take it out for my brother to see?" "Then if she has a violent temper and is impolite to me, she must not cut me?
Jiang Shaoyan must have a deep understanding of these six people, and during the meal, he did not talk about household matters, but took the opportunity to talk about tasks.
He said that with the information we have today, our course is right, so we will continue to go down, and tonight is still the old plan, all of them should rest early to save their strength.
The six men nodded in response with an attitude of absolute obedience. And they ate quickly, and then withdrew.
I struggled, and by the time I was done, the restaurant was empty. I also listened to Jiang Shaoyan's order and said to the iron donkey, "Let's go, go back to sleep now." ”
But the iron donkey shook his head and said, "Others can rest, but you can't." ”
What do I say in my heart? Why am I so special, so much back? I was not convinced, and I said a few words to him. The iron donkey told me that through today's observation of the day, he found that my body was a little lazy, which was not a good phenomenon, and he wanted to take me to exercise after dinner to stretch my strength.
I really didn't want to go, and the iron donkey said another word, so that I couldn't find a reason to refute it. He emphasized that the trip to Ghost Island must be very dangerous, and if I am going to encounter trouble, my body must be able to carry it and escape.
I compromised, but this brute, who said he was pulling his strength, actually took me on the deck, against the railing of the ship, and ran no less than ten laps like this!
He shouted slogans one by one. I guess after this time, I ran for dozens of miles, and finally I was almost tired and foaming.
I didn't sleep well last night, because it was too bumpy, and when I went back after this exercise, don't tell me anything about bumps and bumps.
I lay on the little bed, almost rolling my eyes, fainting and sleeping.
I still dreamed, and I definitely dreamed day and night, I dreamed that I became a Red Army with the iron donkey, and we were wearing a dogskin hat, wearing a big cotton jacket, holding the old Hanyang, and we were crossing the grass with red eyes.
Of course, it was just a dream, and it was easy to understand that we were so strange in the dream, but when I fell asleep, when I stepped on a piece of grass again, the whole grass disappeared, and there was an abyss in front of me.
I was scared of my mother, and it wasn't over yet, I fell to the ground in reality. I woke up like this.
I felt in a daze that the Iron Anchor had stopped!
