Chapter 331: Monsters Under the Sea
The air grew more and more dreary that day, and the dark clouds seemed to overwhelm the people, and in the evening it finally began to rain on the sea.
The rain was not big or small, but there were countless raindrops drifting from the sky, and the beads generally hit the sea, causing whirlpools one by one, and the waves on the sea surged, and the big ship was a little bumpy.
Bai Qianyu closed the doors and windows tightly, listening to the rain crackling on the deck outside the cabin, like jumping beans in a pot, the sound was non-stop, Bai Qianyu held the little fox in his arms, while touching its soft fur, feeling its warm little belly lying on his lap and bulging, while gossiping with Wei Xiao: "In this kind of weather, I don't know if Jiang Laojiao's big sea boat can carry it?"
Wei Xiao said: "It's okay to just have a little rain, but the wind is getting stronger and stronger, and if it is bumpy, there will still be a danger of capsizing." ”
As he was talking, a wooden cup on the table against the wall suddenly slipped and fell off the table, Bai Qianyu was unstable, so he fell diagonally towards Wei Xiao, but fortunately he hugged him.
"In this way, the wind and waves are a little too big!" Wei Xiao helped her back to the chair, and wanted to go out of the cabin to take a look: "I'll ask Jiang Lao Turtle to see if I can find a land rest nearby, it's still not very reassuring to sail in such a dangerous weather." ”
He got up and was about to walk out of the door, when Bai Qianyu suddenly stopped him: "Wait!"
Wei Xiao stopped, saw Bai Qianyu unwrap a bag from the corner of the wall, took out the umbrella and clothes, put the clothes on him, and handed the umbrella to him: "Go out and be careful!"
"Rest assured. Wei Xiao caressed her shoulder, kissed her lightly on the forehead, then opened the umbrella and walked out the door.
As soon as he got out of the hatch, there was a gust of wind, blowing the oilcloth on the umbrella inward, and the bamboo pole was pressed to the maximum, almost breaking, Wei Xiao put the umbrella on top with his hand, and then stepped on the deck full of rain, stepped on the five flights of stairs, and walked to the cockpit at the bow of the ship.
He pushed the cockpit open in the wind and rain, only to find that in addition to Jiang Laoqiu and the two helmsmen, there was another person standing in the cabin - Ning Wuxi.
It seems that there are other people on the ship besides him who have discovered that the situation is not right.
Jiang Laojiao is holding a sea mirror with both hands at the moment, squinting his right eye, looking ahead, and constantly issuing orders in his mouth: "Don't deviate to the right", "Left rudder five", "Right rudder", "Right rudder"!
The two helmsmen looked ahead with full attention, nervously repeating Jiang Laojiao's orders "Don't deviate to the right", "left rudder five", "positive rudder", "positive rudder", and "positive rudder", holding the rudder angle tightly with both hands and operating.
Huge Daichi boats bounced on the waves, moving along the established course.
In Jiang Lao's sea mirror, a black island suddenly appeared in front of him, the area of the island was not large, there were no weeds on it, and a small black dot on it seemed to be a seabird.
At this moment the ship was heading towards the island, and if it followed its course, it would have collided with the island if it had gone a few more moments.
Jiang Lao's eyes stared at the island in the sea mirror, and muttered: "Strange, this island is not recorded on the chart, could it be that the route has deviated?"
Ning Wuxuan said: "The old turtle is known as a living map on the sea, and besides, the wind has been sunny these days, so there shouldn't be any mistakes." ”
As he spoke, a big wave rose on the sea, and the island floated with the crest of the wave, and the black dot rose, and moved in this direction, until a few feet away in front of him, a black seabird, with a sharp beak and red claws, and its wings spread wide open, rose and fell in the wind, whistling over their heads.
Ning Wuyu took a breath of cool air: "With the size of this seabird, the part of the island that protrudes from the sea should be about ten zhang, and it ......."
Before he finished speaking, the island had already floated towards them, faster and faster, and the area was getting larger and larger, and from the window, it occupied almost the entire field of vision, and the black silt-like things on the island looked very greasy, breaking through the seawater, and crashing towards the bow of the ship at a rapid speed!
Everyone was dumbfounded, the two helmsmen almost forgot to steer, if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed that an island more than ten feet in size would hit at lightning speed!
If the boat doesn't stop, it will inevitably crash into this island and smash it!
"And it's not an island!" Wei Xiao said suddenly, and suddenly an arrow stepped forward, knocked away the helmsman in his left hand, and struck the rudder to the right violently, almost a full rudder, the big ship turned to the right in a very short time, almost turned to the right in a tipping posture, and the left side of the boat rattled, as if it was passing by the object, and the guard on the side of the ship made a scraping sound.
But thankfully, they managed to avoid the huge object!
The helmsman on the left hand patted his chest and exclaimed, "It's dangerous!", just breathed a sigh of relief, but listened to Jiang Laojiao's order: "Go down and see if there are any scratches on the side panel!"
The helmsman replied, "Yes!" and hurried down.
At this time, a big wave hit head-on, splitting the head and covering the face through the window, the helmsman on the right side was unprepared, and the water droplets hit the eyes like marbles, and suddenly the right hand subconsciously covered the eye socket.
As soon as his hand was released, the ship immediately lost control and spun sharply to his left, and the ship quickly fell from the right to the left.
Ning Wuyu had been standing by and watching, but at this moment, his hands stretched out from his sleeves, pushed the helmsman away, and made two right turns in a row, before he and Wei Xiao worked together to control the boat, and gradually pulled it back to the upright direction.
Jiang Laojiao put down the sea mirror, wiped his forehead, and said, "It's so dangerous!"
This old captain who has been sailing for many years can't help but sweat on his forehead.
Ning Wuyu held the rudder firmly with both hands: "Today's weather is abnormal, the wind and waves are so strong that people can't open their eyes, Lao Turtle might as well let your helmsmen go to rest and rest, and Wei Xiao and I will steer the steer, and you will still give us the direction." ”
Jiang Laojiao was silent for a while, and ordered the right helmsman: "You go down and see the sailors driving the boat, call out all the sailors, everyone is divided into two shifts, take turns to change shifts, if anyone is blinded by the wind and waves, immediately replace the person to make up for it!"
The right helmsman answered, and hurried down the helm.
Ning Wuyu smiled admiringly: "It's not chaotic in the face of danger, I just saw the captain's demeanor of Uncle Turtle at this time!"
In the past, Jiang Lao Turtle would definitely take a puff of cigarette and enjoy this praise comfortably, but today, he didn't smile on his old face, and only said in a dumb voice: "We met a sea monster!"
Before the words fell, a tsunami suddenly erupted on the sea on the left side of the ship, and the waves were several feet high, and a huge black shadow rose from the water and rushed towards the big boat!
In the midst of the huge waves, you can vaguely see that it is a huge fan-like tail, and the water is pouring down from the raised tail like a waterfall, gushing in from the left window, and in an instant, the entire rudder is submerged in most of it, and the three people are suddenly drenched!
"Rudder, accelerate!Full speed!" Jiang Lao Turtle tore his throat and shouted, and the following words were quickly choked in his throat by the squirting seawater.
Wei Xiao flicked the rudder back sharply, and in the sudden loud noise, the big sea ship started, like a person who tried his best to rush forward.
The huge waves flooded his eyes, he could only close his eyes tightly, let his sense drive, and felt that Ning Wuxuan also activated the right rudder at the same time at the moment when he couldn't make a move, and the sea ship was full of firepower, and finally crossed a straight waterline on the sea, avoiding the blow of the huge sea monster!
The waves fell, the water level quickly descended, but it still submerged on their thighs, Jiang Lao turtle slammed backwards, slammed open the cockpit door, and the water surface suddenly poured like a waterfall ship, pouring down the building to the deck on the second floor.
The three of them looked nervous, not knowing where the huge sea monster that moved quickly would attack again.
But the noisy sea suddenly became quiet, as if the sea monster had disappeared.
This situation is even more unsettling.
Ning Wuyu suddenly flashed a faint golden light in front of his forehead: "Uncle Turtle will temporarily fuck the right helm for me, and I'll see where this sea monster is hidden!"
Jiang Lao Turtle didn't say a word, and took over the right rudder for him.
Ning Wuyu stood in the cabin, calmed down, made a seal with his hands, pointed his index finger in the middle of his forehead, and shouted: "Open!"
A purple light penetrated through his fingers, and the golden light on his forehead shone brightly, and in the light, a heavenly eye in the middle of his forehead slowly opened!
A golden light shot out of his eyes, coming out of the three-zhang high cockpit and hitting the sea, forming a huge pillar of light, which slowly swept along the sea.
Ning Wuxi's heavenly eye can not only see through, but also see from afar, through layers of obstacles, bulkheads, sea water, layer by layer to search down, but the farther away, the greater the spiritual power consumed, the lower the vision of the heavenly eye, and then dozens of feet under the sea, it is already pitch black, almost indistinguishable.
Jiang Lao Turtle looked at him staring at him and said in a trembling voice: "What did you find?"
Wei Xiao stretched out his finger and "shhhhhhhhh ”
Jiang Lao Turtle was immediately silenced.
In Ning Wuxi's vision of the heavenly eye, at this time, he only vaguely saw a huge black object of more than ten zhang under the pitch-black seawater, motionless, he stared at his eyes, wanting to look more carefully, but a few wisps of yellow strong light flashed in his eyes, as if someone in the dark suddenly turned on a very bright light, and suddenly a flower in front of his eyes, like ten thousand needles pierced at the same time, "Ah" couldn't help but take two or three steps back!
Jiang Lao Turtle hurriedly asked, "How is it? What did you see?"
Ning Wuyu stood up and steadied himself, slowed down, and smiled bitterly while rubbing the eyes in his forehead: "I didn't see anything clearly, I don't know what kind of monster it is, it can actually defend against my heavenly eye, fortunately I closed my eyes quickly, otherwise I would almost be blind!"
Wei Xiao knew that he said it easily, but this heavenly eye was obtained by penance that was different from ordinary people, but if he was blind, he would never be able to open it again,—— what kind of monster was hidden under this water, and it could have such a strong demonic power?
