Section 60 At sea
Several people in this group went to sea, except for Qiu Qingran, who knew more about the sea, Poison Zun knew a little about some fish or poisonous things in the sea, and the other three were all seeing the sea for the first time. When the land slowly turned into a line and then slowly disappeared, Jin Daozi and Huofeng couldn't help but panic, Jin Daozi's face was extremely pale and trembled: "How can you know the direction?" This, this eye is full of water! ”。
As soon as he finished speaking, Tuoba Hongxuan handed him a round object and said, "I bought it from a small shop in the town that specializes in selling seafood, and the shopkeeper said that the hollow circle on the top is north, the solid circle below is south, the solid one on the left is the west and the solid one on the right is the east."
Jin Daozi glanced at Tuoba Hongxuan, and said helplessly: "This is the compass, I have seen it, the question is where is this Three Immortal Island?" ”。
Hearing this, Qiu Qingran smiled and took the other compass handed to him by Tuoba Hongxuan, and said: "We should drive about five miles to the northeast, you don't have to worry, I'll drive the boat, this will definitely not be a problem."
Tuoba Hongxuan nodded to Qiu Qingran gratefully, and said, "It's hard work", after speaking, he also sat down in the cabin steadily, because Tuoba Hongxuan himself also felt a little weakness in his limbs, and his heart kept churning. Looking at the poison zun, Jin Daozi and Huo Feng on the side, Jin Daozi directly lay on the bed and hummed, Huo Feng lay down on the side of the boat with a pale face, and vomited from time to time, and although the poison zun was also sitting calmly in the cabin, his face seemed to be whiter than usual.
People who grew up by the sea definitely have a deep emotion and connection with the sea, when Tuoba Hongxuan and the four of them collapsed in the cabin or deck because of seasickness, Qiu Qingran held the helm with high spirits, humming a small tune in his mouth, constantly looking for his feeling at sea back then, at this time he was like the owner of a big Zhuangzi, more like a sailor who missed the sea for too long. Qiu Qingran glanced at the fire phoenix sitting on the deck and said, "Don't worry, if you vomit this time, you won't vomit when you go to sea again in the future."
"Wow...... Later...... Lao Tzu again, again, don't come here...... Hell it...... Wow......" Huo Feng replied weakly.
Qiu Qingran smiled and said: "Boy, the first time you float on the sea, you will be like this, just get used to it, this sea is a treasure, of course, it is also mysterious, oh, by the way, have I told you about the rumors of Sanxian Island?" ”
Huo Feng still had the strength to pay attention to him, and he collapsed directly on the deck motionless. Hearing this, Tuoba Hongxuan couldn't help but ask, "What is the rumor?" ”。
Qiu Qingran smiled again and said: "The old people of several generations have said that when the Three Immortal Islands appear, there will be many monsters in the water, although I have not seen them with my own eyes, but anyone who goes to the Three Immortals Island does not return." These words surprised Tuoba Hongxuan, although he didn't believe that there were any monsters, but aren't the best like the red snake and the blue bird also monsters?
And Huo Feng, who heard this, tilted his head directly and "fainted", but he kept muttering in his mouth: "It's over, it's over."
And Jin Daozi, who heard this, shouted directly in the cabin: "Go home, I want to go home."
As soon as he finished shouting, he heard the poison venerable yell: "Shut up for me."
After being silent for a while, Tuoba Hongxuan calmly asked, "Can Master Qiu say a little more about the Three Immortals Island?" We don't know much about it."
Hearing this, Qiu Qingran nodded happily and said, "These monsters, I also heard an old fisherman in our village talk about them, saying that they are krakens, can sing, and are still very beautiful, but they can eat people. And its own flesh and blood are highly poisonous, and if a person eats it, it will die violently, or at least it will go crazy or become another kind of monster."
Speaking of this, Kim Daozi shouted again in the cabin: "I don't want to become dry food, I don't want to become a monster."
"Shut up," Poison Zun yelled again. Qiu Qingran's words made Tuoba Hongxuan ponder, he remembered that the Qilin King did tell him that his great-grandmother and grandfather had sent many people to look for it when the Three Immortals Island surfaced, but most of them went and did not return, and the few who came back found nothing, many of these people were still found from the local area, and the people who were open to water had lost so much, it seems that this time the sea is really auspicious, fortunately, we got some things that can be fried, but I don't know, can we use them when the time comes. Thinking of this, Tuoba Hongxuan asked again: "Master Qiu, has the old fisherman on your village seen these krakens?" ”
Qiu Qingran shook his head and said: "I'm afraid I haven't really seen it, but this old man is very strange, he has no family, he only wears a small single-layer cotton jacket in winter, he won't get sick, he won't be injured, he has been in my village for more than ten years, how do you look at it, how can he not change his feelings." Of course, maybe I'm too much to do, so I'm getting old fast."
As soon as he said this, the poison venerable in the cabin stood up, and when he walked in front of Tuoba Hongxuan and Qiu Qingran, he said with a strange expression: "I remember that the family teacher once mentioned a thing, saying that eating its flesh can lead to immortality, immortals never get sick, if there is a wound, it will heal quickly, and the appearance will stay in the time of using this thing for many years", Poison Venerable's words made Qiu Qingran stunned, lowered his head and thought about it, and said: "It seems that this old man has really not changed at all, wait back and ask."
Tuoba Hongxuan smiled slightly at this time and sighed: "It seems that these three immortal islands are really extraordinary."
After sailing one day, Tuoba Hongxuan and the four of them were even more tired than Qiu Qingran, because this was the first time they were floating on the sea, and their physical discomfort was certain, so that the four of them directly skipped lunch, and ate a little bit of dinner, and then rested. Qiu Qingran taught Tuoba Hongxuan how to control and how to deal with the lifting and lowering of the sail hand-in-hand, Tuoba Hongxuan also studied very seriously, so in less than an hour, Qiu Qingran could rest assured that he could rest well before dark, and when the starlight flickered on the sea, Qiu Qingran got up again to replace Tuoba Hongxuan, and the other three also adapted to the sea in the next few days, and also learned some skills of sea control from time to time. After getting along, Tuoba Hongxuan's attitude towards Qiu Qingran became more and more natural, and Qiu Qingran became more and more proud.
When their ship sailed late into the night of the sixth day, Qiu Qingran suddenly shouted, and everyone woke up from the violent shaking of the hull of the ship, and rushed out of the cabin, only to see the bright moon still hanging in the sky, and the sea was pale. At this time, the sea was stormy, wave after wave, and the ship was already making the sound of being about to break apart. Suddenly, a huge wave appeared in front of the ship, like a monster awakened in the sea, opening its bloody mouth and engulfing the boat in an instant. In a hurry, Tuoba Hongxuan jumped to the bow of the boat without hesitation, and slashed at the huge waves with one palm, and suddenly, the momentum of the huge waves was knocked down, and the boat was temporarily safe. However, wave after wave, Tuoba Hongxuan had to tie himself to the mast at the bow of the ship with a rope and split the waves with one palm. While Qiu Qingran was amazed by Tuoba Hongxuan's skill, he also hurriedly commanded the others to try their best to stabilize the shaking hull. Everyone survived three or four hours in this battle with the huge waves, and at this time, Tuoba Hongxuan had already consumed too much internal strength, if it hadn't leaned on the mast, I was afraid that it would have fallen. The other four people were not easy, when the sun rose and the waves gradually calmed down, Qiu Qingran, Huofeng, Poison Zun and Jin Daozi also sat down on the deck, and the group was not embarrassed. In the end, it was Poison Zun and Huofeng who struggled to get up, untied the rope on Tuoba Hongxuan's waist, and caught his limp body, at this time, Tuoba Hongxuan's lips were chapped and bloodied, his face was extremely pale, and his expression was tired, only two eyes were surprisingly bewitching, the eyes of the left eye completely turned blood-red, and the eyes on the right were dark blue like the sea. When Poison Venerable and Huofeng were about to put Tuoba Hongxuan on the deck, the two of them were suddenly stunned by the distant scene, and they couldn't say anything for a while with their mouths open. Their strange expressions made the already exhausted Tuoba Hongxuan suddenly vigilant, barely holding up his body, but he was also stunned by the distant scene.
