Chapter 709: Going to Sea Doesn't Go Smoothly
The sun was shining, there were a few white clouds floating in the sky, and the chirping of seabirds came from unknown corners.
At this moment, Ling Xiu and Jiang Haojun were floating in the endless ocean with the bamboo rows. I don't know how far away it is from Mandao, I only know that after five days and five nights of floating on the sea, I can't see the shadow of Mandao for a long time, and what comes into my eyes is nothing but seawater.
Is this the new world?
Ling Xiu felt that it was incredible, because the new world was almost no different from the original world before the disaster, but the air was fresher than the original world, and there was less pollution from heavy industry, although it was on the sea, he could deeply feel the purity of nature.
It is not without reason that the Protoss abandoned the original world and moved into this new world, compared to the environmental pollution that can be seen everywhere in the original world, the new world is spotless, like a yellow flower girl to be married, which world is better and more conducive to life, you can know at a glance.
"Brother Xiu, there isn't much food and water left!" Jiang Haojun said the problems that the two of them are facing now.
Ling Xiu came back from his thoughts and checked the barbecue and water on the bamboo raft, because the carrying capacity of the bamboo raft is limited, coupled with Jiang Haojun's large appetite, these two things are indeed not much, if he can't reach the island Jiang Kun said before the sun sets tomorrow, I am afraid that he will be hungry and thirsty next.
Looking up at the north, there is no trace of any island, nor any references, which makes people feel anxious.
"Speed up!" Ling Xiu said lightly.
Jiang Haojun naturally won't be lazy, paddling hard, he has strength, like this small bamboo row, he won't have the slightest sense of fatigue even if he rows with all his strength for a day and a night.
As we were moving forward, the wind suddenly became stronger, and the originally calm sea slowly set off waves.
Ling Xiu and Jiang Haojun turned their heads to look, they were all stunned, and a black and oppressive dark cloud floated in the sky in the distance, rumbling towards this side like a demon cloud, and from a distance, you could see the lightning and thunder inside, and a powerful sense of oppression that made people's hairs stand on end.
"Sea ...... Ocean Storm, Brother Xiu, the ...... What to do? Jiang Haojun was in a cold sweat, and he couldn't even speak.
"Row quickly, get out of this sea!"
Ling Xiu looked at the ocean storm in the distance and said in a daze, but turned around, only to see Jiang Haojun still stunned in place, when he snatched the oars over, he used all his strength to row the bamboo row towards the sea far away from the ocean storm.
Jiang Haojun also reacted quickly, the two of them rowed the oars desperately left and right, and the bamboo row broke through the heavy waves, like arrows scurrying on the sea.
But no matter what, the speed of the bamboo raft cannot match the speed of the storm.
"Huhuhu~"
The wind was howling, the waves were roaring, and the sky was covered by rolling dark clouds in a short time, as if it was evening, lightning was screaming, and the majestic rain was falling with a strong rush and coolness.
The power of the ocean storm is that the roaring and tumbling water, and the force brought by the waves several feet high is unimaginably huge.
Ling Xiu and Jiang Haojun's bamboo rows were vulnerable, and a huge wave more than ten meters high fell apart after it hit it.
"Gollum~"
The two fell into the water, but fortunately, they were tied to their waists with a four- or five-meter-long hemp rope in advance, and the two were not swept away by the waves, otherwise the huge wave just now would be enough to separate the two, and even the figures could not see each other.
surfaced, each holding a hollow bamboo.
Let the wind and waves beat, the rain washes away, and drifts with the waves.
Ling Xiu gritted his teeth, since he came to the new world, he had encountered all kinds of disasters, which made him resentful to the extreme, and he was also aggrieved to the extreme, the thunder in the sky was like the ridicule and cold eyes of the sky, all of which seemed to be the sky was going to kill him.
"You can't kill me, you can't kill me!" Raise your head and roar to the sky.
Jiang Haojun, who was not far away, felt a chill in his heart, because when the light of lightning shone on Ling Xiu's face, he saw that Ling Xiu's face was a little hideous.
I don't know if it's a coincidence, when Ling Xiu's words just fell, the lightning in the sky became more and more frequent, and the sound and momentum became more and more immense, and even the air seemed to be filled with an electric particle, which made people's scalp tingle.
The wind was stronger, and there seemed to be a huge monster churning in the sea, roaring and shaking the heavens and the earth.
One after another big waves were volleyed in the air, and in the face of such natural forces, the two were powerless to resist, and were slapped into the deep sea water again and again, and then struggled to surface again and again.
After drinking several sips of bitter seawater in a row, Jiang Haojun did not feel frightened, but was as angry and aggrieved as Ling Xiu, and began to curse. This curse could keep his mind clear and not be stunned by the waves, he didn't want to be a burden or a burden to Ling Xiu.
I don't know how long it took, but the sky gradually cleared, the wind slowly stopped, and the sea slowly calmed down.
The previous storm was like a tantrum in the sea, revealing its hideous and vicious side, but now it has a gentle expression, calm and breezy, a picture of the ocean that everyone yearns for.
Ling Xiu and Jiang Haojun were both a little tired, and they were drifting on the ocean with hollow bamboos, like rootless duckweed.
"It seems that my father is right, the sea is like a woman, she changes her face when she says it, and it is unpredictable." Jiang Haojun sighed.
"You've got a lot of feelings." Ling Xiu smiled slightly.
Jiang Haojun frowned: "Brother Xiu, you can still laugh now, our bamboo raft is gone, and we don't know where the food and water have gone, I'm afraid that we will starve to death on this sea." ”
That's really a problem!
Ling Xiu fell into deep contemplation, the original situation was not very optimistic.
Thinking about it, who would row a bamboo raft across the sea, and he did it, not only rowing a bamboo row across the sea, but also did not even have a tool to indicate the direction, and determined the direction of the road by all senses, I have to say that this sea is quite sloppy.
It was a miracle to survive that storm.
"If we can make it to land alive, we must find a big ship with an experienced navigator, so that we can anticipate the storms of the sea and avoid them, and we will not get lost in the sea." Jiang Haojun said his next plan.
Ling Xiu nodded, feeling that it made sense.
According to Jiang Kun, the patriarch of the Jiang tribe, the bone inscriptions left by the ancestors of the Jiang tribe show that this world does not have a whole continent, but is composed of countless large and small islands, each of which has a corresponding civilization and town, relying on ships to travel back and forth.
In such an environment, if you have an experienced navigator, you will definitely be able to save a lot of trouble.
But that's all for later, and now they're faced with how to get to an inhabited island alive......
