Chapter 337
At the bow of the boat, the old man closed his eyes and stared, feeling the murderous aura in the dense fog ahead. In an instant, the old man pushed aside the children on both sides and stepped back, and a crossbow arrow with a child's arm thick with a rope attached to the tail grazed the sharp corners of the bow, and sawdust flew everywhere.www.biquge.info A sea boat suddenly rushed out of the left front of the ship, and a flag was erected on the bow of the sea boat, on which a ghost shark was drawn, and the black fish body looked vigorous and powerful on the white cloth. The speed of the sea ship was extremely fast, and it was about to collide with the two ships, and the sea ship turned sharply and passed by. At the moment when the two ships touched, five figures jumped out of the boat and landed behind the old man. The five of them jumped forward into the crowd, and when they saw the man, they swung their knives and slashed. People scattered in a hurry, and some were killed before they could run away.
At this moment, a person suddenly jumped out of the crowd, and this person grabbed the coarse cloth behind him and pulled it hard, and pulled out a sword, which was the swordsman. The swordsman stabbed his sword at one of the five, who held the knife to block, not wanting the sword to come too quickly, and the tip of the sword was already in his throat before it was raised to his chest. The swordsman stabbed down a person, without stopping, kicking his leg and turning around and stabbing again, and the person who was stabbed also raised his knife to block, it was fast enough, but the sword pierced through the knife and pierced into the heart. The remaining three saw that two of them were killed in an instant, and they knew that they had met a master, and quickly jumped into the sea.
The old man saw it in his eyes, pointed to the swordsman's sword and said to Lin Feng beside him: "That's the sword, it killed the wicked, but saved the people on the ship!"
When the captain saw that the ship had turned back, he instructed the sailors to pull the sails and move the ship forward as fast as possible. But the ship was faster, and the distance between the two ships was getting closer and closer, and the swordsman, seeing that the situation was critical, came to the stern with an arrow, but suddenly he found that the old man at the bow of the ship was already standing in front of him. The swordsman felt a faint sense of oppression in the air—another arm-thick crossbow bolt flew from the ship. The swordsman saw the old man raise his right hand slightly and slash into the air, and an invisible air blade quickly collided with the crossbow arrow, and the crossbow arrow split in half, passing through the left and right sides of the stern of the ship. The old man raised his hand again, spit out a slight "Ice Blade", and hit the pursuing sea ship with a strong force.
The unthinkable happened, and the sea water froze rapidly in the area of nearly ten meters around the ship, making it impossible for the ship to move. So the ship full of refugees was able to hide in the fog.
Everyone was still nervous, afraid that the sea ship would come out of nowhere. The old man returned to the children, and several of the children were frightened and wept at the sight of the dead, and the women hurriedly hugged the children to comfort them, but they also cried with tears. The swordsman walked through the refugees who were carrying the wounded and walked towards the old man.
Lin Feng kept staring at the swordsman's sword, and the swordsman stared at the white-haired old man, who smiled and coaxed the child. Finally, the swordsman stood in front of the old man and said excitedly: "Could it be that you are the predecessor of the Sword God Turtle Boundless Turtle!"
The old man didn't change his smile, stroked Lin Feng's head and said, "What is not a god, it's just an old immortal turtle." ”
"No, no, no, the title of the Sword God is not a false legend, you really opened the eyes of the juniors at the stern just now!" "The swordsman's face was full of joy, and he was really happy that he had met the legendary Sword God. Suddenly, the swordsman found that a little boy walked in front of him, looking straight at his sword with his eyes, and this boy was still Lin Feng who asked the sword yesterday. The swordsman crouched down, pressed his hand slightly on the boy's shoulder, and whispered, "Is there something wrong, little brother?"
"I want your sword. Lin Feng said bluntly.
The swordsman and the old man were stunned at the same time, no one would have thought that a child would have such a request! The swordsman said in a small way: "I'm afraid this will not work, this sword has been linked to my life, unless I die, this sword will never leave me." ”
"That'...... Can you give me another sword?" the boy's eyes were full of pleading.
"I'm sorry, I only have a sword. The swordsman's expression changed from surprise to wonder at this point, and he couldn't help asking, "Why do you want a sword so much?"
This question caused the boy to raise his head and suddenly lower, and his open mouth to say something was choked. It seemed that he remembered something terrifying very suddenly, Lin Feng's body began to tremble, and he walked away in silence. When the swordsman saw him like this, he couldn't help frowning, but his temperament was really not good at getting along with these dolls, and he sighed, still unwilling to deal with it.
The captain told the sailors to keep a close eye on the conditions at sea while they checked on the ship. The refugee boat was not too bad, only slightly damaged, with five people killed and several wounded. The two pirates stabbed to death by the swordsman had a ghost shark tattoo on their left shoulder, and both were holding serrated scimitars in the shape of fish teeth - anyone who sailed on the Bohai Sea knew what these two symbols represented!
"It's really them!" the captain smiled bitterly, this is the second time he has encountered it, will it be as lucky as the last time? Pick up a scimitar, and that crazy experience seems to be still unfolding before the captain's eyes—that stormy night, the fierce gods of the ships, and the devils who are like the devil pouring out of hell.
After settling the wounded a little, the people gathered again in the bow of the ship, and a few sailors looked out from the poles, but the fog blocked the view, and the sky was overcast and silent. The captain looked at everyone's expressions and thought to himself that it was time-
"I understand that everyone wants to know what just happened, and I will tell you now that that sea ship is the most vicious pirate ship in the Bohai Sea - 'Oni Shark'!"
At the mention of "ghost sharks", people's faces immediately changed, and a group of refugees panicked.
"Now that our back road has been blocked, it is impossible to go back, only to move forward. The captain paused, "However, because of this thick fog, it will be difficult to sail, and the food on board is not very abundant, so we will have to save some food from tomorrow onwards." ”
Speaking of which, people have begun to riot a little, but these are all facts, and there is nothing anyone can do. However, there was a young man in the crowd who was not moved by the captain's words, but kept comforting the girl around him. The young man was Ah Hai, and the fresh and beautiful girl in white cloth beside him was Xiaoling. Xiaoling is still angry about last night's incident, Ah Hai is not good at words, how can such a thing be said clearly? I can't say many words, Ah Hai has already stopped talking, and I am finished thinking about it, according to Xiaoling's personality, I am afraid that she will not forgive herself without more than ten days!
The sea breeze was strong, and the clouds were gathering. Although Xiao Ling couldn't see the scene just now, she felt it, and she didn't know whether to be happy or sad in such a boat-she dared to love and hate, laugh when she laughed, and cry when she cried! She knew Ah Hai's heart for herself, but she was always - what she wanted to say changed as soon as she came out, and she really hated herself! And then there was the fate of this boatman, which really made Xiao Ling's heart can't calm down. The hand unconsciously picked up the lute, and the slender hand stroked lightly, and the gentle tone danced on the strings, as if it was a feeling of happiness of receiving true love, but the next moment, it turned into a crying and angry wail.
The gloomy sky can't stand it anymore, and I'm in tears!
It was night, and it was raining on the sea. The tiny waves on the surface of the sea, gently lapping against the lone sailboat, like a kind mother coaxing her child to sleep peacefully on a rainy night.
But the refugees, who had passed through a day of thrilling adventures in the sailboat, could not sleep for a long time. What will be the state of mind when the road ahead is confused?
The lights were still on in the captain's cabin, and the scenes of the day were still playing in his mind, finally evoking all kinds of memories of the past. Will you meet those sea boats, will you meet those people? Maybe a cool breeze blew in through the window, and the captain's body actually trembled slightly.
"I hope I won't see them again!" the captain sighed and began to look at the charts again. But his sigh had already startled the people around him. Beside him, his wife, who was pretending to be asleep, opened her eyes. Looking at her husband, there is infinite love in her eyes. Quietly picked up the coat on the wall, slowly put it on her husband's body, leaned his head up slowly, and said softly: "Don't think too much, go to bed early, your body is important!"
The captain gently took the delicate hand on his shoulder, sighed again, and said, "How can I not be worried, I brought out the life of this ship!"
"I've really wronged you!"
"I've been ready since the day I married you. The wife pressed her face against the captain's big strong hand and rubbed it.
The captain turned around and hugged his wife, slowly lay down, covered himself with a quilt, kissed his wife's forehead, and whispered, "Sleep!"
However, Heaven will always arrange many sufferings to disturb the dreams of the world. Just as the captain was lying down, the whole ship suddenly shook violently. The plank bounced with a tremendous force, crushing the captain's and his wife's bodies and slamming them against the wooden wall. The captain took his wife in his arms, and under the tremendous force from his back, he felt a sweetness in his throat and blood overflowing in his mouth. He endured the sharp pain in his back and swallowed a mouthful of blood.
"Man, what's wrong with you, are you alright?" the wife hurriedly got up, knelt beside the captain, and asked eagerly.
"I didn't ...... It's all right!" the captain let out a sigh of relief, leaning his hand against the wall, "I need to go out and see what's going on." ”
"Can't you take a break?" the wife held the captain's slightly swaying body, and there was a slight resentment in her eyes.
The captain took a deep look at his wife, sighed, and said helplessly: "How can you rest well at such a time, maybe you can sleep well in the sky!"
"I'll be with you wherever you are. The wife took the captain's hand and walked out. When I opened the cabin, there were already many people standing in the aisle, some of them with some injuries. Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what was happening. Suddenly, I heard someone on deck shouting, "Oh no! The ship is stuck!"
When the captain heard the shout, his heart pounded. At this moment, when the plank was opened, a drenched sailor ran in with a whale oil lamp, shouting: "Boss, something has happened!"
The captain frowned and asked in a deep voice, "What the hell is going on?"
"I don't know when two icebergs appeared in front of me, and the bow of the ship hit the gap between the two mountains, and it was stuck and couldn't move. The sailor gasped a few times and wiped the rain from his face.
"What!"
"Oh my God!"
As soon as the people in the aisle heard this, they immediately panicked, and some began to run to the deck, others walked back to the cabin with gloomy faces, and the timid women were already sobbing. The captain took a deep breath and said to the sailor, "Take me to see it!"
With that, he had already gone to the deck, and the sailor hurried to follow, while his wife went back to the cabin first to get something.
It was still raining lightly, and the wind was not strong, but it was cold, and the captain could not help shivering. Suddenly, the captain felt that the rain was dripping much less, and his shoulders warmed. The captain turned his head to see that his wife had put on a hat and a cloak for himself. Glancing at his wife gratefully, the captain said softly, "Go back to the cabin, it's a little cold outside." ”
"Hmm!" said the wife, who opened the wooden door and walked in.
"Sister-in-law is so nice!" the sailor sighed as he looked at the slowly closing wooden door. turned around and found that the captain had already walked away, and hurriedly chased: "Ship boss, wait for me!"
The sea was pitch black without moonlight, and the people standing on the bow of the ship could not see what was ahead. After the sailor put the captain in his mouth and handed him the whale oil lamp in his hand, the captain could barely see a rough shape. It turned out that the two icebergs were leaning together, forming a small slit underneath, just enough to clamp the bow of the ship. Reaching out and knocking on the ice walls on both sides of the bow of the ship, without looking back, he asked the sailors beside him, "What is the damage to the hull?"
"There are a few planks that have been scratched by ice, and the old cow has brought two people to repair them, and the others are fine. ”
"Go to Lao Niu's place to urge, we don't have much time, we need to get out of here quickly. The captain turned and handed the whale oil lamp to the sailor. The sailor took the lamp and climbed down the rope ladder. The captain shouted to the chattering crowd around him, "Let's all go back to the cabin, and we'll talk about it tomorrow." ”
With that, the captain should go to the hatch first. But before he could reach out and open the door, it opened on its own, and the person behind it was his wife. When his wife saw the captain, she was stunned at first, and suddenly grabbed the captain's arm violently, and shouted with a little cry: "Feng'er is gone, Guangcai, Feng'er is gone!"
"What, Feng'er is gone?!" the captain grabbed his wife and asked in a louder voice, "How can you not be seen in the cabin, can he fly a little bigger?"
"I don't know, I don't know, but there's just no one in the cabin. ”
When the captain shouted at the captain, the wife couldn't hold back her tears anymore and flowed out.
When the captain saw his wife's tearful face, his heart suddenly softened. Gently hugged his wife into his arms and comforted him softly: "It's okay, I'll ask someone to look for it in other cabins, a ship is so big, Feng'er can't disappear suddenly, ask others, someone must have seen Feng'er...... Is it, impossible, impossible!"
The captain shook his head, dispelled his unrealistic thoughts, patted his wife on the back, and walked into the cabin holding hands—
"Don't worry, Feng'er will be fine, you can rest first, and you may be able to see Feng'er tomorrow morning." ”
"Really, you didn't lie to me?"
"How could I lie to you? It's useless for you to worry about it now, you have to rest well before you have the energy to take care of Feng'er!"
The captain told the sailors to find a few men to find his son, and it took some trouble to put his wife to sleep. I drank a sip of water to moisten my throat, and the cool feeling flowed down my throat and into my lungs. However, the captain's heart could not calm down, and trouble came to the door one after another, which made him impatient.
The sound of a knock on the door pulled the captain back from his thoughts, and taking a deep breath, he slowly opened the hatch and walked out. A few sailors stood straight by the door, as if doing what they were most proud of. The captain looked at a large number of the sailors he had brought out, and felt a little relieved in his heart, and asked one of the sailors on his left, "Dalong, what is the news?"
"Boss of the boat, Xiao Feng may have disembarked, we have searched all over the ship, but there is still no trace of Xiao Feng. ”
"How so, this can't be!" said the captain, looking incredulous.
"We can't believe it, but what Brother Long said is probably true. A sailor beside the captain stepped forward and said, "We found something in Kaede's cabin, it seems that it was left by Kaede." ”
"Hmm, take me to see it!" the captain was really worried about his son, because he was afraid that the tragic history of his life would repeat itself.
The sailor walked quickly to lead the way, and soon came to Xiao Feng's cabin. When I opened the door and went in, I saw a few little babies playing games. At this time, Lin Feng was still a few orphans on the mainland, and they had been sleeping together. The sailor walked over to the wall, took down the picture frame that hung on the wall, and Lu Chu made some small nicks—
"If it weren't for the fact that the ship shook so badly when it hit the iceberg that the frame fell, it would have been hard to spot the nicks. ”
The captain took a closer look, and the words "Someday, I will have a sword" were engraved on the board, and one sentence actually included the different characters of the seven countries of the mainland. Come to think of it, Lin Feng has indeed learned a lot of words from the white-haired old man these days. It is only possible for a captain like the captain who has seen all kinds of people from the seven countries of the mainland to understand it. However, under the letter, there are also five small swords of different shapes, which the captain cannot understand. The captain pondered for a while and did not move, Dalong couldn't hold back any longer, and asked, "Boss of the ship, what did Xiao Feng engrave, do you have any clues?"
"It's nothing, it's just that Feng'er usually has nothing to do casually. The captain reached out and took the frame, this painting was painted by a painter he met many years ago, and the painting was a cute girl chasing butterflies and playing - that was Lin Feng's sister, his sister who died ten years ago, was dead, and was taken away by the pirates of the "ghost shark", how could there be any life?
"You don't have to worry, with the protection of the Sword God, he will be fine. "The person who spoke was the swordsman who killed the pirates during the day.
"Chivalry, what do you mean by that?" the captain looked at the swordsman who was standing at the door at some point, his brows furrowed more and more, and the direction of things became more and more out of his control, "Do you know where Feng'er went?"
"I don't know where he went, I just know who he was with. ”
"Please also ask the knight to make it clear. The captain stepped forward and bowed.
"I said don't worry, he got off the boat with the sword god, the gray-robed and white-haired elder. ”
"What, where did you go?" the captain suddenly reached out to grab the swordsman's hand, but the swordsman shook it lightly and dodged. The captain withdrew his hand and said, "I mean, the sea is vast, where can they go!"
"I really don't know, in fact, I'm also a little confused, what is the sword god going to do with a child?" The swordsman touched the stubble on his chin and looked at the floor with some distraction.
"It's just nonsense, it's child's play at this time, he wants to go crazy by himself, why did he kidnap my son?!" The captain was a little angry, his son was abducted unconsciously, and no one would feel good.
The swordsman was also startled by the captain's roar, and looked at him a little strangely—
"What the Sword God wants to do is child's play, I envy your son for being favored by the Sword God. ”
"I don't care if he is god or not, I only want my son!" the captain suddenly sat down on the bed, and his voice became a little dark, "I only want my son......"
The swordsman was stunned by the captain's reaction, looked at the sobbing captain, his face changed again and again, slowly stepped forward, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "I don't know why you care so much, but I think it may be safer for him to stay by the sword god's side." The name of the sword god, I think, you have heard of it. ”
The swordsman walked out of the cabin. The sailors in the cabin had never seen such a fragile side of their captain, and for a moment they did not know what to say or do. Only the sea still crashed against the waves, echoing the low sobs...... (To be continued.) )
