Chapter 164: Star Island

The new journey had to be carried out at sea, and I didn't know how long it would take or what would happen, so I hired a "cargo and passenger ship" that could only carry fifteen people.

The fat man thinks that a "working boat" should be hired, everyone thinks it is a waste of money, and this journey is not to go to the tomb robbery, and there will be no deep-sea salvage, so there is no need to hire a working boat. And a cargo passenger ship can carry both people and diving equipment, which is very good.

The fat man was very dissatisfied and said: "Since you don't go into the water to salvage, it is useless to prepare diving equipment, isn't it a waste?" ”

I explained to him, "Just in case." ”

The day of the voyage was set for two days later, and the captain was a tall and strong man with a beard surnamed Yang, but his personality turned out to be the complete opposite of his appearance, like a very verbose aunt. The taboo of going to sea on the ship, just the first one, he endlessly rambled dozens of times, making everyone's ears calloused. And he had a big beard and looked very vicissitudes, but he turned out to be a few years younger than me. But I heard that he is already the father of three children, which is really serious.

In order to avoid the captain's magic voice as soon as possible, Zha Ling'er said: "This time I went south, I experienced too much pain, and my body and mind have suffered a lot of blows. ”

The fat man and the monkey immediately shouted in support and vigorously praised Zha Ling'er's wisdom.

Seeing the skinny appearance of everyone, he felt that he should give them a good patch, so he took everyone to the port market.

The seafood in the port market was just caught that morning, and there were rows of seafood stalls outside the market. Cool beer with incredibly fresh seafood. Even the locals often come here to enjoy their mouths. We came to a food stall called "Xingsheng". In addition to the famous crab, shrimp roe, seafood porridge, and charcoal-grilled oysters, this food stall also has a signature dish that is not widely known, which is the "land, sea and air ten perfect nourishing soup". The pitch-black casserole contains whole live octopus, whole hen, abalone, scallops, prawns, and ginseng. and other precious and nourishing ingredients from land, sea and air are stewed together, which is very nourishing and delicious. Several of us almost swallowed the casserole together. One by one, the teammates with round bellies leaned comfortably on the plastic chairs, either burping with satisfaction or closing their eyes happily. It's been a long time since I've enjoyed a delicious and full meal like this.

As a result, I don't know if it's because I haven't eaten such nourishing food for too long. The stomach couldn't stand it, and everyone actually had diarrhea collectively.

A small inn where you stay at night, a public toilet, is located in the lobby on the first floor. Right next to the cash register. Soon all of them were occupied by the team members, but because there were only two toilets, everyone had to take turns in the queue. I saw a group of people, clutching their stomachs. Desperately banging on the door outside the toilet. The person who had just come out of the toilet had not yet stepped out of the door. Then he hurriedly turned around again, and the person who stood outside for a long time was willing to miss the opportunity he had been waiting for, so at the door of the toilet, a funny tug-of-war was staged. The expression on his face, because of the pain in his stomach, was distorted.

The toilet was stinking in front of it, and the other guests staying at the inn had their doors closed on hot days. The proprietress of the small inn frowned frequently when she looked at us crowded in front of the toilet, as if we had been in arrears for ten years and had not paid her rent. However, her short husband was very nice and bought us antidiarrheal medicine at his own expense. Seeing a large bag of anti-diarrheal pills containing pills, potions, and tablets, I knew how desperate the boss was for us to recover as much as possible, and I couldn't help but wonder if he was so concerned that he was afraid that we would affect the business of the hotel.

After pulling all day, when it was time to go to bed at night, I felt that the effect of the medicine began to take effect, and the pain in my stomach was reduced a lot. Originally, it was agreed to go out and walk around the next day, but because of the weakness of the legs, everyone lay on the bed for a day. It is estimated that if the diarrhea does not stop the next day, everyone will have to be hospitalized. Before he got on the boat, he was already stretched to the point that his legs were weak, so it can be seen that life after getting on the boat will not be much better.

On the day of departure, the people who had not yet boarded the ship had already shown signs of seasickness with pale faces, weak legs, and unsteady footing.

When the captain Yang saw us, he was very worried, and began to ask questions again. And said that there is endless seafood after going to sea, why do you still want to spend money to find guilt?

I barely managed to squeeze out a smile and said to him, "Don't worry, it's okay." ”

After all the team members boarded the ship, they plunged into the cabin, lay on the bed and began to close their eyes and recuperate, and they didn't bother to take off the backpacks they were carrying behind them.

The people who had already had diarrhea and collapsed now left the solid ground and began to shake on the sea, feeling that their stomachs were about to vomit. After two days at sea, finally getting used to the ups and downs of the waves, everyone began to discuss the search for the next destination.

Star Island is made up of thousands of large and small islands, which are densely packed with stars, and from a high vantage point, the appearance of the small island on the sparkling blue sea is like countless bright stars falling on the sea, hence the name.

The blue sea is shimmering, and the sun shines on the sea, as if there is a large amount of gold hidden, and the golden light is dazzling, so that people can't open their eyes. The waves roll and jump, like a tireless and happy child. The beautiful islands dotted on the sea surface are like a lonely boat with light leaves, and like the colorful feathers on the phoenix falling on the sea, becoming the best decoration on the turquoise sea. The breeze gently blows across the sea, and the waves begin to sing softly.

Where the water is shallow, you can look down and see another wonderful world beneath the clear water. The colorful corals are like flowers blooming at the bottom of the sea, like strings of vermilion hairpins on the heads of elegant beauties, and more like raging flames blended together by water and fire, breaking through the incompatible boundaries of water and fire, and perfectly combining together.

The colorful fish, freely shuttling among the beautiful corals, happily and flexibly swinging their tails, turning around and playing, and sometimes flying quietly on the shallow bottom, are like poets walking in the sea. Occasionally, the sea turtles that want to participate in the feast of the cheerful fish quietly use the limbs like oars to leisurely watch the excitement around the fish. (To be continued......)
