Chapter 21: The Ghost Ship
The ship returned, and it was difficult to hide the elation of the crowd.
Now that the crisis of the island has been resolved, it is not a big problem to borrow a boat.
The boat docked, and a group of town residents waited expectantly, and their eyes looked straight at An Ran and the four walked down.
There was still some bump and uneasiness on their faces.
"Little brother, what's wrong?"
Jiang Li smiled slightly and said:
"We searched for a long time, and we went down to the bottom of the sea to find it, but we didn't find any sign of the blacktip shark."
"The island is out of trouble!"
Everyone smiled happily and hugged the people around them.
They cheered, wept with joy, and spontaneously danced the dance that had been passed down from generation to generation on their island.
The mayor and Brother Li rushed to the front of An Ran and the others, and their voices were a little choked.
"Thank you so that we don't have to leave the land of our ancestors."
As is customary, if the alliance can't solve this problem, then the inhabitants of the island have only one choice, and that is to move out.
An Ran and the others shook their heads, and the unfree also laughed.
The sincerity of others is the most satisfying thing.
"Come on, let's go back to drinking, let's thank you guys."
Speaking of this, the children cheered. walked over and pulled An Ran and the four of them together, and walked towards the island.
The rest of the people stood on the roof in the distance, and when they saw the four people on the dock who were like heroes, the cow girl snorted coldly:
"Humph! It was as if the credit was theirs. ”
Everyone didn't answer, and they all went downstairs to meet Enron and the four.
Feasts are held on the island, starting at ten o'clock and continuing until the evening.
At the banquet, Jiang Li immediately said:
"Mayor Mare, we need a boat, a ship that can sail to Yamato."
The mayor put down the wine glass in his hand and asked with a frown:
"What are you going to do in Yamato?"
"This is the task that our teacher assigned to us."
The mayor sighed, then asked:
"Do you know how to sail? Do you know the route? ”
The students fell silent.
They will be able to open the ship when it arrives, but it is impossible for them to know about such a professional thing as the route.
"If there is no shipping route, if you break into the sea area full of demons, you will really die."
After the mayor finished speaking, the faces of the group were extremely ugly.
I didn't expect navigation to be so dangerous.
"What should I do?" Zhao Yuanming asked Jiang Li.
Jiang Li shook his head.
The mayor looked at the young people, then sighed and said:
"Alas, I originally swore not to go to sea again, but for your sake, I will make an exception and follow the old path."
Everyone was overjoyed in an instant, but An Ran frowned and said:
"Is that route safe, how many people are with us?"
Mayor Gao shook his head:
"That's absolutely safe, I'll do it alone."
An Ran: "However, we are still taking care of you when you go, but what will you do when you come back?" ”
Mayor laughed:
"Little brother, don't worry, I am the one who has been blessed by the god of the sea, and I will definitely come back safely."
Enron says:
"No, it's too dangerous for you to come back alone, we can't do it for our own sake, in case it hurts your life."
The cow girl was suddenly unhappy, slapped the table and stood up and said:
"Enron, what do you mean? Do you want to make it impossible for us to complete our journey to the world? ”
"You're not the captain, can't you say no?"
An Ran glanced at the cow girl and said:
"Hmph, if something happens to the mayor, even if you stand on the world stage, you will be pointed at and scolded!"
"Compared to human life, this world journey is not played!"
Captain Jiang Li stood up at this time and said:
"That's right, we can't be so selfish, I think so, the village chief taught us the knowledge of navigation, and everyone learned it."
"We're all spiritual beings, and we learn very quickly, so we can go alone."
The cow girl snorted coldly and sat down and said:
"The death of M is safe, it's all to blame on him, someone originally brought it, which made things so troublesome."
When she said this, she didn't want to control the volume at all, but scolded directly.
An Ran's faces immediately sank.
I saw An Ran put his fingers together and swiped forward, and the liquid in the cow girl's wine glass immediately turned into a long arrow, piercing the cow girl's shoulder at a very fast speed.
The cow girl fell to the ground with a cry of pain.
An Ran then stood up and said:
"Death Sanba, if you dare to disrespect me in any way, I will sink you to the bottom of the sea today."
"You dare!"
"See if I dare!"
Jiang Li stood up at this time, stopped An Ran, who was about to move, and said:
"Okay, don't talk about it, it's your Li Xianxian's fault in this matter, pay attention next time you speak!"
"That's it!"
The cow girl snorted coldly, and the captain's appearance gave her a step, and she immediately went down.
When she was beaten by An Ran, the whole person was still stunned, and then there was a touch of horror, because he thought of An Ran's deeds.
She was not sure of defeating Enron.
But this revenge of water arrows, she will definitely find a chance to return it.
The mayor looked at the two people who were arguing in a daze, and he didn't say a word, his strength is low, so it's better not to meddle in this kind of thing.
Everyone immediately sat down and continued to eat, with this episode, the people in the imperial capital were silent a lot, but An Ran and Yuhang continued to argue as if nothing happened.
From time to time, tease Xue Xinran.
Two days later, in the early morning, An Ran and his party stood on the deck and waved goodbye to the townspeople on the shore.
Today, they are leaving for the Yamato Alliance.
The ship slowly sped away from the dock and headed for the other side of the ocean.
Half a day later, An Ran and Jiang Li looked at the charts and navigational instruments, and then he said:
"Luckily, it's back on the line."
A storm had just suddenly set off, and they had no choice but to deviate from the course and avoid the past.
Fortunately, they returned to the channel again, and three days later, a group of people were lying bored on the splint, letting the sun shine on their bodies, setting off a warm feeling.
Sailing is boring, and everyone plays too many games to gradually lose their sense of these.
Fortunately, one day later, they would arrive on the mainland of Yamato, and it seems that the base city called Yamazaki landed near there.
Their fuel is only enough to sustain them to this base city.
This route was the route that the mayor of the town took people to smuggle at that time.
Because of demons, it is much easier to cross the ocean to the land of other countries.
The hard part is to enter the base city.
Anyway, a large amount of land has been given to demons, are you afraid of a few more stowaways?
It was late at night, and Yamazaki was still more than ten hours away.
Sitting on the deck with the sea breeze blowing, all of a sudden, a thick mist rose on the surface of the sea, blocking the crescent moon in the sky.
An Ran looked around, and then frowned, this fog came very strangely, not like normal.
He immediately got up and walked into the cabin:
"It's wrong, let's sit down and get ready."
Hearing this, Jiang Li suddenly walked out, and seeing the mist in the sky made him frown.
"It's really wrong, I'll take a look at the compass and don't deviate from it."
He ran back and took out his compass, and found that their ship had turned one hundred and eighty degrees.
"I've been at the helm all the time, how could it suddenly deviate so much!"
A group of people ran to the splint to guard the surroundings.
Jiang Li hurriedly went back and turned the boat back in the right direction.
But as soon as he completed this operation, the compass changed again. Once again, they deviated from course one hundred and eighty degrees.
He immediately ran out and said:
"Freeze the sea, don't let the ship move any further!"
Roy suddenly came to the edge of the splint, and with a single stroke of the spirit completely froze the sea, immobilizing the ship.
But An Ran felt that this was useless, and then said:
"Yiyi, find the reef at the bottom of the sea and tie the ship firmly with vines!"
Roy nodded, and began to do so.
But the vines that trapped the ship tightened tighter and tighter, and then with a click, the vines suddenly broke apart.
An Ran's face sank and said:
"There's some kind of force moving our ship!"
"Seems to be trying to take us to a dangerous place!"
"Everyone, find a way to secure the boat."
People with earth and wood attributes came to the edge of the ship one after another and began to make a move.
Enron also used the Earth Attribute Spirit Form to raise a huge rock pillar from the sea, blocking the ship.
And some directly summoned several mountains to appear at the bottom of the sea, so that the vines of several wood attribute classmates had a place to entangle.
When this was done, the ship became solid, and the power seemed unshakable. Tight vines and sunken splints.
It proves that the other party has not given up.
An Ran didn't know why, so he immediately stood on the deck and used the super water control ability given to him by the foreign body, stirring the bottom of the ship for a while.
The fog was getting thicker and thicker, but in the distance, suddenly a glimmer of light appeared behind the ship.
The light got closer and closer, and gradually became several spherical shapes.
Everyone watched this scene in amazement, with a nervous look on their faces.
When the light was near, An Ran and the others saw a decaying scene.
It was a wooden ship, and it was coming from the stern of the Enron to the bow.
The distance is getting closer, and the deck of the ship is becoming clearer.
A pair of dark green eyes stared at everyone, making everyone's bodies chill.
The melodious and eerie singing sounded, like a ballad somewhere, with a strong sense of homesickness.
The pair of yin green flames turned out to be the eyes of a skeleton, and they gathered on the side of the deck, staring closely at An Ran and the others.
It seemed to be roaring, or trying to pounce on An Ran and the others, but for some reason they didn't succeed, as if they were imprisoned on a ship.
After An Ran and the others passed on the deck, there was the attic of the ship in front of him.
Suddenly, a pair of dry and rotten hands stabbed through the windows of the wooden boat, as if they wanted to dig out their hearts and lungs to An Ran and the others!
Everyone retreated in a daze, startled by this scene.
Only An Ran, Yuhang, and Luo Yiyi are relatively normal.
It's a ghost ship.
