Chapter 150: Face (Fourth Shift Asking for a Monthly Pass)
The sky was suddenly cloudy, lightning was like a snake through the clouds, and the behemoth of the Moon Prayer Moon was speeding up in the sea, riding the wind and waves.
With such weather, it's really hard to tell the difference between day and night.
After getting the order of the fourth young master of Han, Xiao Hai, who had followed the ship's boss for many years, immediately rushed to the helm room.
As a result, there was a sudden torrential rain between heaven and earth.
The rain was pouring down, and he went against the wind, almost falling to the ground, and couldn't help but complain about the ghost weather.
He had been on the Moon for many years, and it was rare for him to slow down the ship, and he didn't know what was going on today.
Xiao Hai came to the captain's room, and saw that the captain was standing in front of the rudder with his hands behind his back, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
After following the boat boss for so many years, Xiao Hai will feel at ease as long as he looks at him.
After all, not everyone has six toes, not everyone is born to eat this bowl of rice at sea, not who has been driving a boat for decades and has never had an accident.
And the boat boss is such a person, the boat he drives is always like the six toes he grasps the ground, safe and steady.
At this time, Xiaohai knocked on the door gently.
The boat boss didn't look back, just moved his rough fingers.
This is a habit that the boat boss has developed over the years.
Xiao Hai entered the house and saw that the room was wet.
The captain of the ship has to observe the sea conditions, so the windows of the helm room are generally not closed.
Yes, when the wind is calm, the boat boss is very pleasant, and he sits in this spacious room and drinks tea.
But when the storm came, the captain had to brave the heavy rain to steer, which was very hard.
At this time, the boat boss spoke: "Xiaohai, what's the matter?" ”
Xiao Hai said: "The fourth young master ordered to slow down the ship?" ”
The captain of the boat turned, his face reflected in the not-so-bright firelight, and he was a little emaciated.
"Why?"
The young master of the Thousand Machine Building has always rarely interfered in the matter of navigation.
Xiao Hai gasped and said, "It is said that some people say that there may be icebergs ahead, and they are worried about hitting it." ”
The boat boss showed a dry smile and said, "Fourth Young Master, he didn't drink too much, right, do you believe this kind of thing?" ”
Xiao Hai shook his head and said, "It doesn't seem to be, but boss, since it is the young master's order, are we?"
I saw the boat boss shake his head, went to the middle of the house, opened a wooden cover, and said to a wooden pipe below: "Let the formation master adjust the formation and slow down." ”
After a few moments, the speed of the Moon Prayer slowed down a bit.
The wind and rain gradually subsided, the speed of the ship also decreased, and the slightly tense and oppressive atmosphere in the helm room eased a lot.
The boat boss twisted his neck, put three sticks of incense on the statue, and said, "Xiaohai, make a pot of tea." ”
Xiao Hai nodded, skillfully took out the indoor stove, lit the fire and boiled the water.
The burning stove brought warmth, and Xiao Hai rubbed his hands, only feeling very comfortable.
After the water was boiled, Xiaohai carefully grabbed the tea leaves to the teacup, then washed them with boiling water, and handed them to the boat boss.
The boat boss took the old carved wood grain teacup, blew lightly, and did not drink it.
The only candle in the cabin stretched his shadow long, and it looked a little rickety.
Suddenly, something black flashed through the outside.
Xiao Hai was startled and said, "What is that?" ”
The boat boss didn't say anything, and continued to drink tea.
Xiaohai took a look and found that the back of the boat boss was a little hunched.
The other party kept burying his mouth in the tea, as if he couldn't finish the tea.
The atmosphere became a little weird for a while, Xiao Hai couldn't help but look at the location of the door, but only heard a bang, Xiao Hai was scared and trembled.
The door that was originally open suddenly shut!
It was as if an invisible figure had just pulled the door open.
You must know that at this time, there is no wind in the whole room at all.
The boat boss, who had been drinking tea, seemed to have woken up from a dream and muttered, "Xiaohai, what did you just say?" ”
Xiao Hai said: "Boss, I said that the wind was so strong just now, but it came and went quickly. ”
The boat boss smiled, his smile a little yellowed in the candlelight.
"Where is the wind?"
Outside the window, another tall and thin black shadow passed by the big boat, and the small sea chrysanthemum was tight again.
At this time, the boat boss stood up and said in surprise: "What was it outside just now?" ”
Xiao Haizhan said tremblingly: "Boss, it looks like a pillar, it appeared once just now. ”
Outside, it was cloudy, and there was nothing but the undulating waves of the blue water.
The captain of the boat said with a strange face: "How can there be pillars in this kind of place?" ”
Yes, this sea is so far from the shore, it is a real area of deep water, if there is a pillar, how long is that pillar to stand on the water?
Or was the pillar supposed to float on the water?
The boat boss kept staring out the window, and suddenly said, "Xiaohai, have you ever heard of Jiaolongzhu?" ”
Xiao Hai looked uneasy and shook his head.
The boat boss took a sip of tea, his face was solemn, and he said a little nervously: "Legend has it that there is a dragon pillar on the sea, which is connected to the palace of the Jiao Wangye. ”
At this time, the speed of the big ship became lower.
The candle flame in the house burned, stretching the shadow of the ship's boss for a long time.
Listening to the story of the boat boss, Xiaohai was quite flustered for a while.
Is there really a dragon king?
All of a sudden, the atmosphere became eeriely tense.
At this time, Xiao Hai immediately pointed out the window and said, "Boss, there is another one!" ”
Because of the slowdown of the ship, this time, the time to observe the dark thing could not help but become longer.
Under the dark canopy, the pitch-black thing really looked like a stone pillar with a big head and a small body.
I don't know why, Xiao Hai always had the illusion that this pillar was looking at him, and his hairs stood up involuntarily.
How can a pillar look at a person?
At that moment, a bolt of lightning fell, reflecting the appearance of the black pillar.
Xiao Hai was so frightened that he sat on the ground and screamed, "There is a face on the pillar!" ”
Yes, there is a face carved above this pillar.
That face was thin, and his eyes were slightly narrowed, really looking like he was staring at you.
Xiao Hai has been out to sea for so many years, and he has never seen such a thing, but he feels that the evil door is tight, and his whole body can't help but tremble.
The boat boss is very stable, the moon prayer ship is the largest and strongest sea ship in the Great Prayer Country, it will never sink, and he has been here for more than ten years, and he likes it very much.
It was more like another home, with his brother as his companion and his master as his father.
The captain frowned and said in surprise: "Face, what kind of face?" ”
The next moment, Xiao Hai's pupils contracted into two pitch-black spots, and his breathing almost stopped.
The flickering candle flame reflected the captain's emaciated face, almost exactly the same as the face on the pillar.
