Chapter 394: Sea Smoke
By the time Zhu Yi dragged and dragged with Lao Lu Changsheng to the bow of the boat, the bow was already full of people.
Not only are Ning Wuyu, Jian Qi, and Jiang Lao Turtle here, but even Mo Guiyun, who has rarely appeared in the past two days, not only Bai Qianyu, but even her little fox and clover.
Everyone stood at the bow of the boat next to each other, and suddenly occupied the best position of sight on the bow of the boat.
Seeing Lao Lu Changsheng and Zhu Yi coming over, everyone also smiled tacitly, and said hello, without the slightest intention of giving up their positions.
Although everyone came one after another when they heard Lao Lu shouting "look at the sea smoke".
Lao Lu was not annoyed, and took Chang Sheng Zhu Yi to pick up another side point, leaned on the side of the boat, and pointed forward: "See, over there, in the northwest direction, there is a layer of gray light smoke, like a window screen in a daily home." ”
Zhu Yi squinted his eyes and looked at it for a long time, shook his head and said, "Old Lu, are you having fog in your eyes, why didn't I see anything?"
Lao Lu took a sip: "I'm just looking older, although I'm called Lao Lu, I'm not old enough to grow foggy!"
Zhu Yi squinted his eyes again and looked hard, and said, "I still haven't seen anything!"
As soon as the words fell, I saw the northeast direction, between the sea and the sky, suddenly the smoke and clouds surged, as if blown by a gust of wind, a large piece of smoke sprayed out, the sea surface was like a light veil dancing, suddenly changing into various shapes, it looked magnificent.
Jian Qi's eyes were sharp, and he was the first to clap his hands and shout, "I saw it!
After a while, Ning Wuyu and Jiang Lao Turtle all said, "I see! I see it!"
Chang Sheng asked Zhu Yi: "Do you see it?"
Zhu Yi replied after a while: "I saw it!
Chang Sheng crossed his arms and shook his head: "Fat Zhu, not only do you have a slower brain than ordinary people, but even your eyes are duller than ordinary people." ”
Zhu Yi smiled and touched his head.
At this time, everyone held their breath and condensed, seeing that the smoke swept from the northeast, there was only one piece in the distance, but in the blink of an eye, it had blown to the front, and in an instant, everyone saw that the sky was full of the earth, all of them were shrouded in the smoke, and there was only a piece of gray in the sky and on the ground.
The smoke was not completely gray, but it was divided into various colors such as dark gray, light gray, and transparent gray, just like the goddess pulling a huge gauze silk, dancing wildly in the sky, and spraying thin sea air.
"It's really like the Heavenly Maiden dancing light yarn and the cold palace Shu Guang sleeves!" Mo Guiyun sighed.
Ning Wuyu shook his head: "In my opinion, it is more like the fog crown released by the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, the god of solar eclipses, the demon mist lingers, and the sea is dusty. ”
Jian Qi retorted: "Master Ningzhuang, you are here to scare us again, this sea smoke is so beautiful, no wonder Lao Lu has been talking about watching the sea smoke since he got on the ship, and he did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to buy the number one cabin." ”
Chang Sheng said: "How did this sea smoke come up? How did it usually make sea smoke in the air?"
Lao Lu explained: "This sea smoke must be above the deep sea, when the sea temperature is extremely low, and the cold and warm currents meet, the cold sea water surface makes the warm and moist air flow over it turn into water vapor condensation when it is cold, and it will form sea smoke." Therefore, this sea smoke cannot be seen on ordinary land, and only in this far sea can it be seen fortunately. ”
He looked at the sea smoke and sighed with satisfaction: "My wish in this life is to see the sea smoke on the East Pole Sea, the aurora on the extreme north island, and the daylight on the island at the four o'clock of starlight.
Everyone nodded and said, "Even if we can't find Starlight Four Seasons Island, if we can witness one of the three grand scenes, it won't be in vain to come here." ”
Jian Qi suddenly said: "Old Lu, is the color of this sea smoke exquisite?"
Lao Lu shook his head and said, "It's all gray, but it's not exquisite." ”
Jian Qidao: "Isn't there a black one?"
Old Lu Qi said: "But I haven't heard of it." ”
Jian Qidao: "How do I see that sea smoke gradually turning black?"
Lao Lu was startled, and when he looked at it with all his eyes, he saw that the sea smoke was flying in the air, and gradually approached a few feet, and a burst of black smoke rolled up in the smoke, which was emitted in the air.
After a while, black smoke rose from the smoke, and the black smoke appeared more and more frequently and more often, and in a short time, the whole gray sea smoke was smeared with a gray-black, and then I saw that the gray and black became thicker and heavier, until the whole became completely black.
The blackness was as heavy as substance, and everyone could see nothing but the smoke of the sea that covered the sky and the earth.
"This ......" Zhu Yi lost his voice and said: "This is really a bit like the demon mist of the Eastern Emperor Taiyi that the owner of Ning Zhuang said!"
Ning Wuyu shook his head at this time: "This is not a demon fog, the fog is still light, why do I feel that this smoke is extremely oppressive, but it seems to be coming at us?"
As he spoke, he saw that the black sea smoke was approaching in an instant, and in an instant, everyone felt that they were surrounded by sea smoke, and they couldn't see anything except their own ship!
Left and right, only a dark and dreary patch remained.
The sea, the sky, and the reefs are all gone.
The sailor ran over in a panic: "Uncle Turtle, I can't see anything in the observation room!
Jiang Laojiao was silent for a while: "The direction of the ocean current is to the southeast, and there are reefs in front of us, if we still drive forward, we will definitely crash into the reefs, so that the sailors will turn the boat around and retreat!"
The sailor answered, and just ran away again, Jiang Laojiao stopped him again and advised: "Remember, don't panic, be careful, turn around slowly!"
The sailor answered again and hurried away.
After a while, the ship began to turn around slowly, and nothing could be seen clearly in the black smoke, and the sailors could only estimate by their own experience that they had turned their heads, and then slowly drove forward.
The boat was driving extremely slowly, and it seemed that he couldn't feel the movement, Zhu Yi was a little breathless, and said, "Old turtle, we are now far away from the reef group, why don't we drive the boat faster and get out of this black smoke area as soon as possible?"
Jiang Lao Turtle shook his head, his face was solemn: "This reef group is huge, I have ordered the sailors to dive down to inspect it in the past few days, only a very small part of the water is exposed, about one-tenth, and nine-tenths of it is a reef, hidden under the surface of the water, just now we patronized and watched the sea smoke, and unconsciously drifted into the reef group with the current!"
"Although there are no reefs on this water, there are many reefs hidden underwater, and some are close to the water, if we are not careful, we are very likely to hit the reef!"
When everyone heard him, their hearts couldn't help but sink.
I only heard Jiang Lao Turtle say again: "Although this is the case, you don't have to worry too much, the people on our ship are all very experienced sailors, and we have explored underwater in advance, just be careful, you should be able to get out!"
The crowd didn't speak, but watched as the boat moved out little by little.
The smoke in front of me was still deep, as if it would never be bottomless.
The boat moved very slowly, and the layers of smoke were like substance, and the Daji boat carefully passed through it, like a turtle crawling slowly in the forest of tigers and leopards.
Zhu Yi scratched his head and asked everyone, "Do you have any illusions? It seems that this ship is not moving forward, but backward?"
At this time, everyone was in no mood to pick up his words, only Ning Wuyi said: "That's when there is no reference next to us, for example, sometimes we sit in the carriage and can't see the scenery outside, and we will also have this illusion, feeling that we are not moving forward, but as if we are going backwards." ”
Zhu Yi smiled embarrassedly: "I thought I was alone in this illusion." ”
At this moment, a sailor came over and whispered a few words in Jiang Lao's ear.
After hearing this, Jiang Lao Turtle waved his hand to let him retreat.
After he left, everyone hurriedly asked, "How is it?"
Jiang Lao Turtle said: "Ah He said that they can only avoid the route with the reef terrain in their memory, but this black smoke came too quickly, and the ship turned around again, I am afraid that there will be an error with their memory." ”
When the crowd listened, there was silence again.
Sure enough, when the boat was not long, I heard a "click", and the hull of the Daji boat shook slightly, as if it had hit something, and immediately stopped.
Jiang Lao's face changed: "Sure enough, I still bumped into it!"
"Does it matter?" said Lao Lu first.
"It should be okay to listen to the voice, but it's just a little weird!" Jiang Lao Turtle frowned.
"What's weird?" asked Lao Lu.
Jiang Lao Turtle didn't answer, but just said, "I'll take a look!"
Immediately limped away on crutches.
Lao Lu looked at the direction he was leaving, and his brows furrowed: "It's really weird." ”
Zhu Yi didn't understand, and said, "What's weird?"
Lao Lu said: "Didn't you see that Jiang Lao Turtle went not to the bow of the boat, but to the stern?"
Zhu Yi said: "Could it be that the stern of the ship hit the underwater reef?"
Lao Lu's brows tightened even tighter, and he nodded slowly.
Zhu Yi said stupidly: "Is there a difference between the bow and stern hitting the reef?"
Before Lao Lu could answer, Jian Qi couldn't help but say, "Are you a pig, Zhu Fatty?" Under normal circumstances, our ship is moving forward, so it should be the bow of the ship hitting the reef, right?"
Zhu Yi nodded and said, "That's right!"
Jian Qidao: "But now, judging by Uncle Turtle's hearing, the sound is coming from the stern of the boat, right?"
Zhu Yi nodded, and said, "Then it means that the stern of the ship hit the reef, there is no problem!"
Jian Qi sighed helplessly and said, "You are very right, bow to the wind." ”
Zhu Yi scratched his head, and suddenly realized: "If the stern of the ship hits the reef, the reef will not take the initiative to come and hit the ship, that can only show that the ship is going backwards, right?"
Jian Qi sighed: "You finally want to come over!"
Zhu Yi touched his head embarrassedly: "Although my brain is slower, I can still figure it out after spending some time." ”
Ning Wuyu glanced at him and snorted, "By the time you figure it out, it's too late!"
Zhu Yi said: "What do you mean?"
Before Ning Wuxian could speak, Jiang Lao Turtle had already walked over with a calm face: "We didn't leave the reef group, but got closer to them!"
