Chapter 107: A Chance Encounter
Many people don't know that 25% of the world's pharmaceutical raw materials come from tropical rainforests, 70% of the raw materials for drugs that have therapeutic effects on terminal diseases come from tropical rainforests, and 25 hectares of rainforests disappear every minute on the planet, mainly because of human beings. Today, humans have stepped up their efforts to protect the rainforest. Ten years ago, the Planet Alliance enacted a rainforest protection law, and it is strictly enforced. Tens of thousands of people were arrested, hundreds of tribes were destroyed, and more than 100 people died in a decade because of this law, and although most people criticized the alliance as barbaric as the colonizers, the rainforest was effectively protected.
Because of this law, the ecology of many islands in the southern hemisphere near the equator began to recover, and it also provided rest days for the Poseidon to hunt and replenish. This is exclusive to the Poseidon, because no other ship is willing to delay a day and send a helicopter to the island to collect fresh ingredients.
Fang Shi's purpose when he went ashore was to learn, yes, as a person who has a passion for the sea, he naturally wants to know more about this sea, of course, the premise of learning is to be interested. The first land to be colonized during the Age of Discovery, where seafarers built ports and docks for them to search the wider South Sea, and left many nautical notes in Africa, recording everything they met, heard, and saw after going to sea. Some of the notes, especially those from the Sea of the Gods, were once thought to be, but even so, they are still on display in the non-Southern Maritime Museum.
Copying is not allowed, visitors can sit down and use the computer to read, and the documents and notes have been organized by a special person and are available through the Internet. Fang Shi's purpose in looking at these literature notes is to look at those literature notes that have not been sorted out because they are unimportant, or have been ignored because of strange stories.
Fang Shi also understood a sentence that he often heard five years ago, no matter how talented a person is, he will not succeed if he does not work hard. Because of his passion for navigation and learning attitude, Fang Shi has become an indispensable and very important member of the Poseidon.
After staying overnight at the Feinan Hotel and reading the literature for half a day, Fang Shi took a local taxi tuk-tuk to the pier before he saw the time. Due to the need for full replenishment, the Poseidon is leaning on the edge of the deep-sea dock and does not need to transport cargo back and forth to the near sea by ship.
When Fang Shi arrived near the dock and was about to return to the ship, he saw an acquaintance.
The acquaintance was Su Jia, who was followed by a man with glasses. Su Jia didn't expand her mental power, apparently she was still in her asceticism, and Su Jia said that in asceticism, she would not use her mental power unless it was necessary. The man was different from Su Jia, Fang Shi could see at a glance that he was just an ordinary person, but the relationship between the two seemed to be ......
Five years have passed, and Su Jia has not changed much, and she has expressed a flattering attitude towards the cute toothy smile of Anna, the person in charge of the Poseidon, and the expression of disappointment does not hide the appearance on her face. The clothes have changed a little, Su Jia is wearing a beige adventure suit, and the glasses man is also wearing a beige adventure suit, I X, a couple outfit?
Fang Shi saw that the nameless fire was burning in his stomach, and this fire completely burned his happiness when he met Su Jia again. Fang Shi called: "Sister, what are these dogs and men doing?"
Anna was on duty and heard from the sailors that someone wanted to stop by the Phi Phi Islands, but of course she refused. But the passengers kept begging the sailor, who was an old sailor, fifty years old, relented, and went to ask Anna again, and in the end Anna had to come forward herself.
Anna stepped aside: "I'm going to the Phi Phi Islands, saying that I've been looking for a boat in Africa for a few months." But because there may be a large area of tropical storms during this season, no boat wants to go. I don't know who I heard that we were going to the Phi Phi Islands, so I kept talking. ”
Fang Shi said: "Sister, let them go." ”
"Oh?"
Fang Shi said: "I think this man is very unhappy. ”
Anna smiled: "Okay, if my brother is unhappy, I will not be happy." ”
Anna hung up the phone, walked up to Su Jia and the man in glasses and said, "Okay, but everything will be arranged by us when we get to the ship." ”
Su Jia was overjoyed, folded her hands and bent over, thank you, thank you non-stop.
Anna turned back to the sailor and said, "You take them to the cabin, how many rooms do you want?" The so-called cabin is a room that no one cleans and lives in all year round.
Su Jia and the man with glasses glanced at each other, and Su Jia said with gratitude: "One room is enough." ”
Fang Shi heard it clearly, and the anger was burning......
Anna could see Fang Shi, seeing Fang Shi's expression, she had a point in her heart, and then looked at Su Jia, such a lovely girl, but she didn't look eye-catching enough because of the journey, and she was definitely a big beauty.
Yes...... His younger brother seems to want to kill his husband and take his wife...... If you have the courage, a man will do what he wants. How your family looks at it is pleasing to the eye. Anna knew that Fang Shi's moral bottom line was still relatively high, and since she wanted to do such a bad thing, there must be a reason to do it. As an older sister, Anna can do as long as she supports him.
This may be the Poseidon!
......
The Poseidon set sail the next morning, and the weather was fine. In cloudless weather, you can see the truly beautiful blue sea. That blue is a heart-to-heart blue, as beautiful as a jewel.
Sitting in the captain's room, Fang Shi rested his foot on the railing and admired the beauty that could not be seen on land or near the sea. I couldn't help but say: "The man's ambition is the sea, which does make sense." ”
Gamble: "Bullshit, you just don't have a place to go, the sea has taken you in, you see it's more pleasing to the eye." Just like a stray dog, after meeting a new owner, he is especially loyal. ”
Fang Shi: "Today you spoke with thorns and ate gunpowder?"
Gamble said solemnly, "I heard that you want to do bad things. ”
Fang Shi: "It seems that we haven't done much good. ”
Gamble said: "It's different, Anna has no bottom line for you, but after all, I am the captain of the Poseidon, I can allow you to do this bad thing, but it will make me very uncomfortable." ”
Fang Shi smiled: "Relieved, I just want to play with him, and I won't kill him." ”
Gamble said: "We are family, if you want to kill, we will not support it, but if you kill for the 'color field', it will be different." ”
Fang Shi said: "I didn't plan to kill anyone, but I didn't like him very well, and it had nothing to do with the 'color gamut'." ”
Gamble reassured: "What are you going to do?"
Fang Shi smiled and said, "I remember passing by Lizi Island at night?"
Gamble said: "That's right, Lizi Island is good, and people come to the island every week to maintain the lighthouse. "The three nautical miles around Satoko Island are all reefs, and although the Satoko Lighthouse has a limited effect on modern ships, it can protect the safety of fishermen's boats in Africa.
......
At night, the sea looks eerie, only the lighting on the boat can bring everyone a sense of security, the sound of the waves crashing against the hull of the ship, at first it sounds interesting, and after a long time it feels boring. Just like people who beg for a living at sea, everything is fresh at first, but everything is boring as the days go by, and the best way to alleviate this situation is to eat.
At around eight o'clock in the evening, dinner was set up and the four guests arrived at the restaurant on time. The restaurant offers more than a dozen dishes, and everyone takes the plate and lines up to receive the meal. Tang San looked at the restaurant and said in Tang Er's ear, "Today is different. "At normal meals, Zhang Ming, Anna, Fang Shi and Ganbo will all appear, and they eat the same food as the crew. Unless there is a special task, the chef will add extra meals, otherwise after the time, Gamble will not have anything to eat.
Although the chef of the restaurant is an ordinary person, he has a good temper and is very principled about food. The chef's father used to be the chef of the Poseidon in the early years, the chef did not get on the ship, opened a restaurant on land, did a good business, and married a wife and had children, so it can be said that he was young and ambitious. It's a pity that in his thirties, he went astray, because the gambling family was broken, his wife ran away from home with the children, and the local 'black party group' forcibly took his kidneys to sell them to pay off his gambling debts. When he had nothing to love, Gamble found him. Later, he learned that his kidney matched the kidney of a powerful person, and in order to get his own kidney, the other party tried all means.
Years later, Gamble asks Chef why he didn't take revenge, and Chef replies that I'm to blame. Of course, with the chef's sincere efforts, his wife and children returned to his side. Since then, the chef has not only become the chef of the Poseidon himself, but his sixteen-year-old son is also on the Poseidon and is his assistant.
Tang San saw that something was wrong because of the four abilities of the Poseidon today, only Zhang Ming and Gan Bo were dining, and then looking at the seafarers who were dining, they seemed to be laughing, as if they were waiting to see the excitement. Tang Er responded: "It has nothing to do with us, don't meddle in things." She could read that the seafarers' eyes were more on the table between Sujia and the man with glasses.
After the meal, most people don't go back to the room right away, everyone goes to the deck for a walk, watching the night view, and chatting. Su Jia ate a lot of food, and after the glasses man finished eating, he gently watched Su Jia eat, and finally made Su Jia embarrassed and asked the glasses man to go to the deck for a walk first.
The man in glasses walked to the deck, leaned his back against the railing, and watched the two sailors wrestle in the center of the deck. Tang Er and Tang San were about ten meters away from him, and the two of them said something in a low voice. At this time, Tang Er, who was facing the man with glasses, saw a man wearing a black water back and a diving cap quietly appeared outside the boat railing, just behind the man with glasses.
This person is Fang Shi, Fang Shi glanced at Tang Er, ignored it, covered the mouth and nose of the glasses man with one hand, and grabbed the glasses man with the other hand and fell into the sea together.
A few minutes later, Su Jia went to the deck after eating, but she didn't see the man in her eyes, and went to the guest room to look for it to no avail, and she was a little anxious at the moment. Because Anna had explained that they were only allowed to move around these areas. Su Jia hurriedly asked the sailors who were idle to contact Anna, who went from the recreation room on the second floor to the deck to inquire about the situation, and then asked Lei Lei to temporarily stop the ship and let everyone go around to find people.
Su Jia asked urgently why the ship was temporarily stopped. Anna told Su Jia that she could not rule out the possibility that your friend would fall into the water, everything was speculation, and let Su Jia calm down first. Su Jia didn't calm down, but was about to cry. Although she is the daughter of the Martial God, she is really powerless in the face of this dark sea.
