Chapter 278, Thick Smoke and Fog
On the morning of the seventh day, as usual, I went to the bow deck to bask in the sun, but when I came out of the cabin I found that there was no sun today, but it was not cloudy, but it was a cloudy day.
Shaoyu was also on the deck, and when he saw me coming, he said hello to me, and the two of us stood on the deck smoking cigarettes and chatting about some trivial matters.
But at this moment, I felt a little windy, although the wind was not big, but it was a little cold on my body, like the cold air of an air conditioner, and it was cold and cold on my skin.
I couldn't help but shudder, "Where does the cold wind come from in this broad daylight?" ”
As soon as I finished speaking, I heard Shaoyu shout in surprise, "Oh my God, Brother Jin, look ahead of us." ”
I turned around and looked, and I was a little dumbfounded, in the sea area two or three hundred meters away in front of us, there was actually a large white fog area, this white fog, surrounded the entire sea area in front of me, but the color of this fog was very strange, it was not white, but closer to gray, it was the kind of gray-white.
This is different from the ordinary sea fog, there is a lot of difference, looking at the past, it is a gray-white smoke, gray and can't see the road ahead, and the most terrible thing is that this fog seems to be flowing, is rushing towards us little by little, I can even feel it is constantly expanding.
"Damn, what does that mean? Where did the fog come from? "I've been out to sea for so many years, and I've never seen this scene, fog can appear on the sea, but there is absolutely no such big and thick fog, almost no visibility.
Shaoyu hurriedly took out the binoculars, and he looked ahead, "It's a thick fog, and it feels like there's something inside." ”
I snatched the telescope from his hand and looked at the other side, under the telescope, I could clearly see that the fog was slowly expanding, but what was inside, I couldn't see it at all, which was not a good thing.
"This is the trouble, this is the way we must go." I said as I handed him back the binoculars.
"yes, it's not a big deal, I'll have to go and inform the others before I can do it." Shaoyu hurriedly ran to the cabin.
Soon, Shaoyu ran out of the cabin with Mai Lao, Martin and others, and even Lao Wu and other people on the ship rushed over, and when the big guy saw the gray fog not far ahead, they were all amazed, and even the old guy Mai Lao was puzzled.
"What kind of fog is this, it's like smoke, it's scary." Mantou turned his head to look at us, a look of fear on his face.
"My mother, I've been out to sea for so many years, and I've never seen such a strange fog, do any of you know what's going on?" The big man was also blindfolded, and although he couldn't see that he was afraid, he must have been up and down in his heart.
"I don't know, it's normal to have fog on the sea, but it's the first time I've seen such a thick fog, you see, this fog has been flowing, it's really like smoke, it's spreading to our side." Shaoyu stretched out his hand and pointed ahead, his face was very heavy.
We were all sailors who had been out at sea for many years, but none of us had ever seen this strange fog, and no one on board understood what was going on, which seemed to be a very rare quadrant.
Martin asked a little anxiously, "Jenny, what should we do?" "He's really going to ask, and he actually asks Jenny, if only she wanted to know what to do.
Sure enough, Jenny's face changed, "How do I know, I haven't encountered this before." ”
"Didn't you say let me do what you wanted?" Martin is really good at empty, and he is still chewing words at this time.
Before Jenny could speak, Mai Lao immediately decided, "Okay, don't talk about it, tell the helmsman to stop the boat quickly, we can't rush in, let's observe first." ”
"Shaoyu, listen to Mai Lao, notify the ship to stop." Martin explained, Shaoyu turned around and ran to the control room.
After a few minutes, the ship's engine stopped, and then Mai Lao had the ship anchored and fixed the ship, and we stopped in the middle of the sea, in a dilemma.
After the ship had come to a complete stop, Martin asked, "Mai Lao, what should we do next?" ”
Mai Lao looked at him unkindly and said, "Why don't you ask anything, won't you look at it?" ”
"I... We're in a cooperative relationship, don't we say we have to follow your arrangement, isn't it right for me to ask? Martin was also a little anxious, and his tone of voice was a little aggravated.
"Martin, don't worry, Mai Lao, he will definitely have a way, he was a little upset just now." Jenny grabbed Martin's arm and said very gently.
I snorted coldly and muttered to myself, "It's really considerate, why haven't you ever done this to others." ”
Originally, the voice of this sentence was very small, and no one should be able to hear it, but it was heard by Li Xin next to me.
She turned her head to look at me and said in a cold tone, "It's really a lot of things for you to be gentle or not." ”
Li Xin's vinegar smell is very sour, I choked my nose when I smelled it, "What?" Are you jealous? I said in her ear intentionally, and now that I know her so well, I almost don't talk about anything.
She tapped me with her elbow, looked at me with disdain, and said, "Dream on you." ”
Mai Lao said at this time, "Let's wait for the time being, observe it, this fog may dissipate after a while, and when the fog clears, let's leave again, otherwise it will be too dangerous." ”
The big guys also agreed, but at this moment, Jiao Ba, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke.
"It's in vain for us to wait, I'm afraid this fog won't disperse, so it's better to set off now." His words made others dumbfounded, others didn't know, but we all knew in our hearts that Jiao Ba would not joke casually at a critical moment.
"Can't disperse? How do you know? Mai Lao asked in confusion.
"Guess." He replied more simply.
"Mr. Jiaoba, don't joke casually at this time." Martin looked at him and said in a calm tone.
Jiao Ba said very casually, "If I say it can't be dispersed, it won't disperse, if you don't believe it, let's wait and see." ”
"What do you mean? Is it likely that this fog will spread all the way to our side? Chang Shan looked at him and asked.
Jiao Ba shook his head and said, "This fog should be like this, it won't spread any further, but it can't disperse either, this is the way we have to go, it seems that we can only rush over it." ”
"How can you be so sure?" Mai Lao asked again.
Jiao Ba asked Jenny to take out the navigation chart, and after he opened the navigation chart, he pointed to a Peugeot position on it with his hand and said, "We should be here now, you look at the Peugeot drawn on it, do you understand this time?" ”
