Chapter 124: Xu Shan's Ship
On the vast sea, the wind howled, the wind and waves gathered, and the heavy rain poured down, smashing to the ground, and the whole world seemed to usher in the end of the world.
"Hold the sails, hold the sails!" Qian Hao shouted while taking the helm.
Although the wind and waves were strong, his voice still reached everyone's ears with precision.
The shopkeeper stood aside and wiped his face indiscriminately, no one thought that not long after they went to sea, they encountered this huge storm at night.
Above the sea, this kind of wind and waves can be called deadly.
If the boat is small and a wave hits, it may capsize completely, and there is no room for struggle.
But fortunately, Qian Hao's ship was built by the founding of the country and withstood the test of wind and waves.
At this moment, Li Tai'an and the others were also standing under the sails, a huge rope was held by them, as soon as they let go, the sails would fall, and once the sails fell, the ship would lose power, at that time, they were really not far from capsizing.
Ming Snake stood behind Li Tai'an, feeling the wind and waves blowing in his face, and roared excitedly: "I didn't expect that there would be such an exciting thing on this sea, I knew that I would go to sea to play a few years ago." ”
", that's interesting, isn't it? I can't stand it for a long time, I have vomited out all the food I have eaten in the past few days, and now it is okay, and I have encountered wind and waves again, are you really not dizzy? The yellow dog bit the end of the rope with his mouth, but the force he could exert was so small that his whole body was empty.
It wasn't until he actually drove the boat that Yellow Dog discovered an embarrassing problem, that is, he was seasick.
This feeling of swaying made the yellow dog extremely uncomfortable, not only could not eat anything, but vomited a lot.
"Hahaha, this is the reason why we go to sea, on this sea, if you die, you will die, and you should be happy, if you are really caught and return to the country, it will be a sad thing for us." A pirate who was blind in one eye laughed heroically.
"Brother Hu, on the sea, how often do you see this kind of wind and waves?" The snake asked curiously.
Compared with the weakness and discomfort of the yellow dog, the snake likes this feeling very much, swaying, fluttering, the wind mixed with the cold rain, smashing on the body, bringing the feeling, like a hearty battle.
"Brother Snake, look at you like this, you are a person in our business, pirates, you are not afraid of wind and waves, you are not afraid of fighting, you are afraid of no money! Hahaha, but to be honest, there are not many opportunities for this kind of wind and waves, after all, this wind and waves are not small. ”
Naruto licked his lips, it's a pity, if it was a little more chance, he really didn't want to leave.
On board, more than a hundred pirates, are doing their own thing.
Someone is pulling the sails, someone is stabilizing the hull, someone is helping to secure the big shaft in the middle······ Thanks to their efforts, the Dreadnought finally survived the storm, and when everything subsided, nearly half of the crew lay on the deck, gasping for breath and resting.
For this group of people on Ghost Island, they have long looked down on life and death, and what they enjoy is the feeling of wandering between life and death.
When you have money, you can enjoy wine, food, and beautiful women; When they don't have money, they risk their lives to make money, and this way of life is already the norm for them.
Li Tai'an didn't lie down with them, he came to the side of the ship, looking at the sea that was gradually calming down, just now it looked like it was about to capsize the world, and at the moment it was extremely calm.
I have to say that this sea is indeed a magical place.
"Well, you weren't scared, were you?" Xu Shan on the side asked Li Tai'an.
Li Tai'an shook his head: "It's not enough to be scared, but this scene, on land, really has no chance to be seen." ”
"The land and the sea are two different things, but compared to the sea, there are more people involved on the land, and the more they know, the safer it is."
"Where is the location of that island? How many days to sail away? Li Tai'an asked quietly.
It has been more than ten days since they got on the ship and set sail, and every day they get up and see the endless sea.
It was quite fresh at first, but the more I watched it, I got used to it.
Including the salty smell of the sea breeze in the air, he was a little disgusted and uncomfortable at first, but now, Li Tai'an is also used to it.
And in the past ten days, Li Tai'an has also learned many sailors' skills.
Lifting, reeling, anchoring, anchoring······
If it is said that Li Tai'an, who has just been on the ship, is a rookie, but now, Li Tai'an is already a skilled sailor.
"It's coming soon, there are still two or three days to sail at most, but I'm thinking now that this Qian Hao's target may not be this small island, his target may still be my ship." Xu Shan said calmly.
"Your ship? How does he know where your ship is? Li Tai'an asked puzzled.
Xu Shan's ship disappeared suddenly, and in this vast sea, how easy is it to find a ship that has disappeared?
For Li Tai'an, it is also a pity that the news about the sea beast has not been heard at all in the past ten days.
Although the sea beast was very large, it was still too small and small compared to the sea, and if he really wanted to hide, it would take Li Tai'an an to find him, it would take him an estimated year.
And this year, you have to wander the sea like crazy.
This is unacceptable to Li Tai'an, after all, on the Fukushima side, there is still an Yaqi snake waiting for him.
Therefore, Li Tai'an has more hope for Xu Shan on the side.
If the sea beast was really looking for something, the only one that had shown a trend was Xu Shan and his ship, and it was the sea beast that took the initiative to attack.
Now, Xu Shan's ship has disappeared, but Xu San has not disappeared.
And since Li Tai'an met Xu Shan, the trembling of the strange beast in his arms has not stopped, although Li Tai'an doesn't know what that breath is, he understands that this is the news that he must figure out.
"I guess they're targeting the ship-eating ghosts."
"Ship-eating ghosts?"
"A legend of Ghost Island, a ghost who specializes in eating boats but does not harm people, when the legend of the sea beast did not spread, this ghost of eating boats is the biggest legend of Ghost Island."
After that, Xu Shan introduced Li Tai'an to the legend of the ghost of eating boats.
"So, you guess their target for going to sea this time is you. Are they trying to find the vanished ship through you? Li Tai'an asked.
Xu Shan nodded, in the past few days, many people on the ship have been staring at him, at first, Xu Shan thought it was because of his identity, but he had already reacted in the past few days.
Qian Hao still didn't want to give up, didn't want to give up his ship.
At this moment, the shopkeeper came behind the two and said slowly: "Two, the captain is invited, go and meet them." ”
Li Tai'an and Xu Shan glanced at each other, it seemed that they were getting closer and closer to their destination, and this Qian Hao didn't want to wait any longer.
After all, it was on Qian Hao's ship, and it was impossible for them to resist, so they followed the shopkeeper and went to the captain's room.
Qian Hao had already changed into a set of clothes at this time, sat on a chair, and waited for Li Tai'an and Xu Shan to arrive.
"Li Tianshi, General Xu, hello, it's been on the ship for so long, this may be the first time we have met face-to-face alone."
Li Tai'an and Xu Shan found a place to sit down, although they were on Qian Hao's boat, neither of them was afraid of anything, and there was no need to respect Qian Hao too much.
"Captain Qian came to us, shouldn't he want to say these meaningless words, you have something to ask us, we also have something to ask you, be direct, and let us save a little time." Xu Shan said directly.
Qian Hao smiled and said: "Then I'm welcome, I hope General Xu can do me a favor and find your disappeared ship, and I know that your son is on the boat, don't hide it, at first I thought it was made by eating the ghost of the boat, so I have been paying attention to whether anyone has appeared around the ghost island these days, and guess what, General Xu?" ”
Hearing this, Xu Shan was obviously much nervous, and he no longer had the indifference just now, and hurriedly asked, "Did you find it?" Any news of him? ”
Qian Hao shook his head: "It's a pity that we didn't find his whereabouts, and we didn't receive any news about him. So I suspect that your ship is not a ghost that eats the boat, but someone else. In that case, your son should still be on board. ”
Xu Shan sat back in his chair and said with a sigh: "Since Captain Qian already has a guess, then what else is he asking me to do?" If it's a ship-eating ghost, I'm still useful, and if it's someone else, I don't know where my ship is. ”
"This doesn't need to worry about General Xu, I have my own way."
Li Tai'an on the side didn't speak, he just watched the two quietly and listened to their conversation, although he was a little suspicious of being ruled out, he still didn't worry.
In the end, Xu Shan still didn't make up his mind, he looked at Qian Hao: "You are clear, I am such a son, I can't give up him, the ship is really not that important to me, after all, the founding of the country is about to be destroyed by Qingruiguo." So my purpose is not to find a ship, but to find someone! ”
Qian Hao nodded, expressing understanding, and then he looked at Li Tai'an on the side: "Li Tianshi came to my ship, it should be for the sea beasts that have been making a lot of noise recently, right?" ”
"Since Captain Qian already knows my identity, then I won't hide it, indeed, if I can, I hope Captain Qian will be convenient."
Qian Hao shook his head: "I'm just such a ship, it's impossible to risk him with him, after all, this is my net worth." But I can promise the Celestial Master that if the sea beast appears, I will definitely help you, and if he doesn't appear, I can't take the initiative to look for it. That's my bottom line. ”
Speaking of this, Qian Hao stared at Li Tai'an: "If the Heavenly Master agrees, then we can continue to be so peaceful, but if the Heavenly Master does not agree, then we can only ask the Heavenly Master to get off the boat, but Xu Shan, you can't take it away, he can't get off when he gets on the boat." ”
The atmosphere of the negotiations between the two sides suddenly became solemn.
Li Tai'an looked at Qian Hao, who was waiting for him, and the aura on his body was exposed, and he had already reached the realm of Dikui.
He turned out to be stronger than Wu Tong.
At this time, Xu Shan slowly took out a gem with a light blue glow from his arms and threw it directly to Qian Hao.
Qian Hao took the gem, although he didn't know what it was, he could feel that the gem was very valuable.
"This is?!"
"Don't you like treasures from sea beasts? I don't think you should be able to refuse this thing. ”
The look on Qian Hao's face changed rapidly, and the shopkeeper stayed quietly aside, and he didn't say a word from the moment he entered this room.
All the right to make decisions is on Qian Hao, and the shopkeeper will never interfere with his decisions.
In the end, Qian Hao exhaled heavily: "I believe that the sea beast definitely has a lot of treasure, but I also believe that in the face of him, it will be difficult for me to live, and money is a thing that can only be spent if I still have to live." ”
"Then if I say that my ship is missing, I guess it has something to do with him!"
Hearing this, not only Qian Hao's face changed, but even Li Tai'an on the side looked at Xu Shan incredulously.
It seems that Xu Shan is hiding a lot from him, and at this moment, Li Tai'an felt it, and Xu Shan seemed to want to find the sea beast more than him.
"Are you sure? You also know that I am not a three-year-old child, and I am not something you can deceive with a few words. ”
At this time, Xu Shan leaned back in his chair steadily: "Isn't it because you have mastered certain means that you came to me this time?" Use it out, and you can know if it's true or not. ”
Facing the determined Xu Shan, Qian Hao's complexion also changed for a while, and then he looked at the shopkeeper who had not spoken on the side, "Come on." ”
Only then did the shopkeeper stand up, came behind Xu Shan, and first said, "Offended!" ”
Then under the gaze of Li Tai'an, the tips of the shopkeeper's ten fingers stretched out ten black rays of light, slowly wrapping around Xu Shan, and one of them even drilled into his eyebrows.
Just when Li Tai'an was about to stop it, the shopkeeper said again: "Don't worry, I won't harm him, this is a secret technique I learned, through these black silk threads, I can find out some things related to him, there is no harm, the only effect is to find someone." ”
Immediately afterward, Li Tai'an saw that a black ball of light flew out of Xu Shan's body, floating in mid-air, and then slowly turned into a giant beast under the shocked gaze of several people.
The giant beast had a long neck and an extremely large body, with thick limbs.
And the moment he appeared, the strange beast record in Li Tai'an's arms began to tremble wildly, but this giant beast was not in the record of the strange beast record.
"It's him, the sea beast I saw that day, it's him!" Xu Shan also opened his eyes at this time and looked at the black giant beast.
The shopkeeper returned to Qian Hao's side: "He is right, his ship has something to do with this sea beast!" ”
Qian Hao's eyes were gloomy, which was indeed beyond his expectations.
