Chapter 190: Landing on the Island
The Jiangshan slowly circled around Monkey Face Island unhurriedly. When you get around to the other side of Monkey Face Yellowstone, it's only about a kilometer from the shore.
At the current rate, the Jiangshan will make a circle in two hours, and finally land on Monkey Face Island.
From this distance, you can see the white sand beaches of the island, the dense woods and meadows of the coast. A flock of black-tailed and red-beaked seabirds fly through the woods.
On the smooth rocks near the beach, a herd of grey walruses is lazily basking in the sun with their white bellies.
Most of the students on the boat gave up their guard and began to point fingers and laugh at the fat and stupid big guys.
Everything seemed peaceful and tranquil.
Gu Wen did not relax his vigilance, he instructed Liu Yang to continue to pay attention to the Diao Dou. It is also called to take all the sailors on the Yanjiang Sea and raise the sails.
Mei Qi asked strangely: "What are you doing when you raise the sails?" There are not enough skilled sailors, and they can only control the sails on three sides. Without a rudder, the most you can do is ensure that the ship does not turn in circles, and it is impossible to get out of the undercurrent. ”
Gu Wen said: "I didn't want to be able to get rid of the undercurrent, but I need to have some control over the boat. In the unlikely event that we hit a reef, or run aground, we can at least rely on the wind to mitigate the impact. ”
"Also, I need you to turn the boat around so that the bow ends up facing the island. Don't ask what the reason is, be prepared. ”
Although Yan Jianghai and the others were a little puzzled, they still followed the order.
The raising of the sails on three sides caused a commotion on the ship. Someone shouted:
"Where do you want to go? We're going to go to the island, don't hoist the sails!"
Someone takes the lead, and someone agrees. For a while, the boat was in chaos, some students began to squeeze towards the mast, and some even began to question Yan Jianghai and others. Individually fierce is ready to shoot.
Gu Wen sneered: "Shuanghua Red Stick, clean up these troublemakers, you can't kill or cripple, and the others are arbitrary." ”
"Finally, it was my aunt's turn to make a move. The tigress is not powerful, you still think it is Hello Katie!"
The latter sentence was taught by Gu Wen, although I don't know what it means, Ma Huateng always feels very powerful.
Ma Huateng's shot was really fast. A few people who shot at Yan Jianghai, Mei Qi and the other sailors were instantly hit head-on.
Ma Huateng's boxing skills are not necessarily subtle, and he often shouts strange names such as "Killing God Punches 36 Punches" and "Raging Whirlwind 72 Legs". But her punches and kicks are heavy and fast.
The one who reacted a little slower was punched three times and kicked four times before he could think of resisting, flew out for several feet, and then glided far on the board of the boat, and was directly mounted on the side of the ship before stopping.
The result of moving faster is not good, and the arms and thighs that barely stopped on the way of fists and feet were fatally hit, ending with broken muscles and bones. At the same time, the number of beatings on the body is doubled. These people slipped even further.
Ma Huateng is like a prehistoric Tyrannosaurus rex, charging on the central axis of the ship, and more than 30 people flew away. A large circle of people around the mast was suddenly plowed out of a flat road.
After being beaten up, the noisy students were silent. The psychological gap from despair to hope made them forget the two terrifying demons on board.
However, Ma Huateng's meal immediately reminded them of this cruel reality.
Gu Wen stood on the gangway and said loudly:
"Listen to me, this is Monkey Face Island, a dangerous place that no one can escape. If anyone dares to disobey the command again, they will all break their hands and feet and throw them into the sea to feed the sharks. ”
Many students at the bottom showed unconvinced looks, but they didn't dare to do it directly, and they lowered their heads one by one without saying a word.
Gu Wen didn't care about these people's oral dissatisfaction.
The more peaceful the surface, the more likely it is that there is great danger behind it.
Monkey-faced Island, which is known for its danger, is like a paradise, and this thing itself is weird.
At this time, Liu Yang, the squad leader on Diao Dou, suddenly shouted: "Attention, there are man-made structures found on the island." ”
Gu Wen looked back, and saw that some white ruins appeared on the ground below the head of the monkey-faced mountain. Apparently there have been traces of human activity here.
At this time, the Jiangshan was less than a mile away from the beach of Monkey Face Island. These ruins can already be seen more clearly.
Xue Yinchuan stared at it for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Fan-top scale pillar, this is not a human building, it seems to be a deserted palace of the fish-people." Could it be that there are fish-people on the island?"
"Fish-people?" the students were a little surprised.
"The climate is great and the catch is abundant. Is it a gathering place for fishmen?"
"Could it be that these fish-people are still on the island, and they killed everyone who saw Monkey-Face Island?"
"Prepare for battle, killing fishmen is a military merit. Hurry up and copy the guy. ”
"These fishmen can kill real people, and maybe we will become their military exploits. ”
"Yes, the wind is howling, hurry up and sail away. ”
For this group of rabble on both sides of the wall, Gu Wen expressed great helplessness. I could only shout: "All groups are in a team, be quiet!"
Under the supervision of Xue Yinchuan, Shao Jian, Li Fusheng, Du Zheng and others, the frightened students formed five more columns. Each drew their swords and raised their swords, ready to face the fish-men.
At this time, Liu Yang jumped down from Diao Dou, ran to Gu Wen's side and whispered, "I checked just now, and I didn't find any signs of fish-man activity in that fish-man palace. But although the palace is mostly destroyed, the central altar appears intact. ”
"I suspect there may be fish-people hiding. ”
"Understood. Gu Wen nodded and said to the students:
"There is about an hour before the Jiangshan docks, and everyone is quiet. ”
"If you don't want to be beaten by the double-flower red stick and throw your hands and feet into the sea, remember not to make a loud noise. If you can't control your mouth, take something and plug it. ”
As soon as the words fell, a few people in the crowd really took out handkerchiefs, hemp cores and other objects and blocked their mouths. These are a few characters who are obviously self-aware.
Approaching the shore, the undercurrent that pushes the boat to spin forward also slows down.
The Jiangshan gradually approached the shore. Under the control of the sailors, the resistance generated by the sail's reverse drive made the Jiangshan move as fast as an old man walking.
While everyone was holding their breath, there was a sudden "rustling" sound from the bottom of the boat, which was the sound of the bottom of the boat touching the sea sand on the shore. It seems that the Jiangshan was lucky not to touch the reef.
Finally, the stern of the ship was raised upward, and the Jiangshan stopped at a distance of 100 meters from the beach.
Yan Jianghai said softly: "Arrive at the shore and drop the sails." "The sails are gently lowered on three sides.
Everyone clenched their swords and guns, ready for the surprise attack of the enemy.
But after waiting for a while, except for a few seagulls "quacking" past the bow of the boat, there was silence all around.
Gu Wen breathed a sigh of relief and said softly: "Xue Yinchuan, you take a group of people to land on the island in a lifeboat, set up a cordon before approaching the forest, and withdraw immediately once the enemy attacks." ”
"Yes, Captain!" Xue Yinchuan took the order and boarded a lifeboat with a few brothers who knew each other.
Zhao Sandou instructed the sailors to turn the winch and lower the lifeboat to the surface.
Xue Yinchuan and the others waved their oars and slowly rowed to the shore. Gu Wen stood at the stern of the boat with a few team leaders, watching them move forward cautiously.
It's still peaceful on the beach.
Xue Yinchuan and others jumped off the lifeboat in the shallow water and dragged the lifeboat onto the beach.
This stretch of sand is white and fine sand, about two hundred meters wide. If it is placed in another place, it is definitely a good place for tourism and leisure. Now people don't have the heart to appreciate it.
These guys seem to have some adventurous experience. The two archers quickly ran to the reefs at opposite ends of the beach, occupying the top of the two largest reefs.
Then the three sword and shield men raised their shields side by side, advancing one by one to the junction of the beach and the woods.
Most of the trees near the beach are coconut palms, and bunches of green coconuts hang from the trees.
A thin Assassin quickly climbed up a tall coconut tree, crossed his feet over the tree, and began to look around.
I've been waiting for a while. Occasionally, large amphibious sea beasts pop up in the depths of the forest. Although these sea beasts are huge, they are all leisurely eating grass stalks and leaves, and they are obviously not ruthless characters.
They don't seem to overreact to the arrival of humans. A giant sea beast resembling a diplodocus but with four legs like a seal, even reaching out to get a closer look at the assassin in the tree.
Its eyes were almost the size of an assassin's torso, and they were full of curiosity. Judging from its smooth green skin, this thirty-meter-long giant beast was actually a juvenile beast.
The skinny assassin barely resisted the urge to make a move on the young beast. Even if this young beast looks friendly, being stared at up close by such a pair of big eyes is definitely a test of the heart.
Finally, Xue Yinchuan raised his right arm and made a gesture of "safe and sound" to the Jiangshan. (To be continued.) )
