Chapter 111: Floods
On the Dingjiang River, Tianlin Gorge, a huge fortune ship is moving forward in full force. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The huge sails spread out in the night wind, making a whirring sound, and the ship was propelled by the wind, like sharp arrows.
In addition, there are dozens of bare men in the cabin, holding oars in their hands, everyone shouting trumpets, and their movements are uniform.
At this time, it was still winter, and these big men rowed hard, not only the atmosphere in the cabin was warm, but everyone also sweated profusely and took off their clothes.
Mingyun stood in the middle of the cabin, above the paddle men, looking downward, and looking up at the outside of the cabin from time to time.
Suddenly, a crackling sound came from outside the cabin. The fortune boat seemed to be hit by something, especially the boat shook more violently, obviously something happened on the surface of the Dingjiang River.
Mingyun stepped out of the cabin and came to the deck first, and what he saw was a heavy rainstorm.
It was night, lit only by the hazy moonlight. It was raining heavily, and the ship's lanterns couldn't shine a few feet of light.
The rain seemed to be pouring down from the sky, and Mingyun had only been standing on the deck for a few breaths, and there was a layer of standing water under his feet.
The whirring wind howled like a wolf, blowing the sails out of shape. Even pulling the fortune boat to the ground.
This sudden wind and rain came so suddenly that Mingyun's face changed.
Sailing in the Tianlin Gorge, the first to avoid the god of water, the second to avoid natural disasters, now this night, the lucky boat everyone is gathered.
He hurriedly entered the cabin from the deck: "Come a few people, change your clothes, and listen to my command to put away the sails." ”
After speaking, Mingyun's eyes were like torches, and he ordered six or seven men among the people who were paddling, these people were not chosen at random, they were all good hands selected from Tengyun Village before, and they had second-order cultivation.
Gathering the crowd, he came out of the cabin to the deck. The rain was heavier and the wind was more urgent, and even if Mingyun had a third-order cultivation, he was shivering from the ice and rain at this time.
"Tie the rope of the guard, each sail is collected by one person, everyone pay more attention to safety. Mingyun pointed to the bottom of the mast, and a large circle of thick ropes was enclosed around a circle of wooden stakes.
This rope is tied to the body when the sails are collected, and it is really necessary equipment in the face of such a windy environment.
Seeing that a few people obediently tied up and climbed the mast, Mingyun retracted his gaze and went from the deck to the room of his own god son in the ship.
When the heavy rain came up, Fang Haoze also sensed the changes outside. Since eating that big fish, Fang Haoze has quietly released a trace of divine power to detect it on the Fu Boat, and almost as soon as it rains, he knows the change in the weather.
"Miko, it's raining hard outside, and it's raining very quickly, so I'm afraid there is a situation. Mingyun arrived outside the door at this time, knocked on the door and said softly.
"Come in and talk. Fang Haoze answered indoors.
The words fell, and Mingyun covered in rain entered the house. "Miko, it's windy and rainy outside, and I've just ordered someone to put away the sails. Now there is a lack of wind, relying on manpower alone, the speed of the ship is about to drop, and the weather is bad, and the situation is not good. ”
Mingyun was right, as the wind rose, there were already waves on the Dingjiang River. Originally, the ship lacked wind power, and the power was not good, and at this time, in the waves, it was even more crumbling.
"Miko, should we dock and fix the boat first?" Mingyun suggested by bowing down.
"How far is it from the gorge?" Fang Haoze didn't answer directly, and suddenly asked another question.
"There are still about ten miles, the wind was good at night, and there were manpower to paddle, and the trip was quite smooth. If it weren't for this kind of weather, I'm afraid that there would be another hour, and I would be able to get out of the canyon early. Mingyun lowered his head and thought about it and replied.
After speaking, he continued: "But now that the turmoil is rising, it may be difficult to continue sailing again." ”
"No, pass my order, call up all the officials who are still sleeping, we must speed up and leave Tianlin Gorge quickly. Fang Haoze shook his head and said firmly.
"Son of God, but now that the rain has just started, the fortune ship is shaking violently. When the wind and rain are stronger, we will still be in a hurry, and the ship will be in danger of capsizing. Mingyun persuaded.
"There's no time to explain so much, you go and do what I tell you. Fang Haoze was originally sitting cross-legged and cultivating, but at this time he stood up and said in a slightly eager tone.
"Okay, my subordinates understand. Mingyun was a qualified subordinate, so he nodded at this time, turned around again, and immediately followed Fang Haoze's orders.
Seeing Mingyun leave, Fang Haoze came from the couch to the window of the boat. In the eyes of ordinary people, it was dark outside, and the heavens and the earth were connected into a black curtain.
With a little divine power, Fang Haoze had already seen the situation outside very clearly. The blue divine power shuttled back and forth between the surface of the Dingjiang River and the sky.
The water vapor in the black clouds above the sky is constantly ingested by the divine power, pulled to the surface of the river and turned into rain, and at the same time, the divine power constantly stirs up the wind, so that the rain borrows the wind.
If it was just a simple rain, it couldn't make Fang Haoze nervous. But in Fang Haoze's opinion, this divine power continued to fly into the sky from the bottom of the river, and there were more and more trends, so he hurriedly ordered everyone to speed up the trip.
In Fang Haoze's consciousness, even if he risked the danger, he had to leave quickly. Because he knew that this heavy rain was not good, and nine times out of ten it was the revenge of the Dingjiang Water God against himself and others for killing the strange fish.
"This water god has an extreme personality and occupies a high position, if he really wants to retaliate, it must be the power of thunder. Fortunately, there are still ten miles away from the gorge at this time, and we can get out of the canyon quickly and the water is gentle, so that we can have life. ”
Looking at the scene outside the window, Fang Haoze frowned and muttered to himself.
At this time, Mingyun came to the cabin from the upper floor, woke up the servants who were on duty according to the order, and led everyone to the bilge and instructed everyone to paddle together.
"According to Childe's order, the river is rushing at this time, and we must speed up and get out of the gorge, so everyone must use all our strength. ”
"Butler, the wind and rain are urgent, the river is the most uneven, at this time the oars are not only half the effort, but also the danger of capsizing. A man who knew a little about boating was born to refute.
"At this point, we need to get to shore as quickly as possible and secure the boat, which is a sound decision. Does the housekeeper want to find a son and discuss it again?" the man suggested earnestly.
It was only before he finished speaking, and a big wave had already passed from the Dingjiang River, slapping the fortune boat and shaking the boat to the ground.
Suddenly, a loud noise came from the river outside the cabin, followed by shouts. Everyone hurriedly looked through the window, but it was a large sailboat, which was smashed to pieces by the huge waves on the riverside.
The people on the boat were standing on the shore at this time, with the rising river under their feet, and their sailboat was sinking again, and it was the moment of life and death, when they saw another big boat in the river, they were waving for help.
This group of people, to say the least, there were forty or fifty, and many of them were richly dressed.
"See, the boat is fixed on the shore, and it has also been sunk by the river, and the water on the shore is rising, and they are probably dead or alive. Mingyun suddenly said in his heart, and said coldly. "Childe's decision seems risky, but now that I look at it, it couldn't be more than right. ”
"Are we going to lean over to those people for help?" asked one of the officials, seeing this.
"Now that the big waves are coming in waves, we are too busy to take care of ourselves, how can we have the spare strength to save people?" Mingyun said lightly, his eyes calm.
