083 Song in the Storm

"In the vast sea, the strong winds gather dark clouds. Between the dark clouds and the sea, the swallows are flying proudly like black lightning... Suddenly, there are fairy mountains on the sea, and the mountains are in the vain. The pavilions are exquisite and five clouds are rising, and there are many fairies in them..."

"Make the storm come more violently... You thief, if you want to block my Xiao Letian's pace, you are dreaming... Fighting with the sky is endless, fighting with people is endless, I will fight with this storm today..."

"There has never been any savior, nor has it relied on the gods and emperors...prepare to sing...there has never been any savior..."

The blue sea water rolled up huge waves more than ten meters high and rolled and hit the sea. The white foam was pressed into the deep seabed with the roar of thunder. The black clouds like mountains in the sky pressed on the sea and turned the day into night. The storm in the sky could no longer be called falling, but fell.

A water tornado was raging in the distance, and lightning released lightning behind the tornado, and the rolling thunder was actually inferior to the roaring sound of the waves. At that moment, the power of the storm dominated the entire space.

In the overwhelming huge waves, a large wooden sailboat was shaking between waves. It was brought to the air more than ten meters high by the huge waves, and then smashed back to the sea. Sometimes the entire ship even drilled into the huge waves, and the sea water swept everything on the deck.

This is a storm that can be encountered frequently in the Pacific Ocean. This ocean named after the peace is not actually peaceful. Every year, tornadoes swallow countless merchant ships on the sea and destroy the lives and property of countless coastal people. This is the most feared moment for all navigators. No matter how developed the navigation technology is, they have no way to resist this kind of hurricane.

But today, on the dark sea, on this wooden sailing merchant ship that was in danger, bursts of silence pierced the sound of the storm, and arrogantly expressed his disdain to the world.

That was Xiao Letian. This arrogant time traveler actually tied himself to the main mast and shouted hysterically against the surging white waves. Gorky's sea swallow, Li Bai's song of eternal regret, and even the international song that had not been published, were mixed with Xiao Letian's disrespect for the gods in the sky.

"Dragon King, Dragon King, if you have the ability, you will appear and eat me... The sea god Poseidon, where is your trident? Let me see the lightning on it..."

Xiao Letian was going crazy, while others on the deck were desperately rescuing the ship. Captain Corsica's feet were nailed to the deck like nails, holding on to the cables with one hand and directing the sailors to sail with the other.

"Cut the rope and abandon this side sail immediately... It will drag us to hell, brave children, rush up. Whoever completes this task, I will reward him with a thousand gold coins..." Before he could finish it, a white wave hit him on his body, blocking the second half of his sentence.

Corsica is right. If you cannot get off the sail in time during the storm of the sea, the strong wind will easily lead the sailboat to spin and even pour over the ocean. Now on the Lucky, all the main sails and sub-sails have been rolled up, and only the highest main mast has a side sail swaying in the strong wind.

The swinging canvas is flying in the air like a flag, and the long cable is whipping in the air like a whip, making a crackling sound. Two sailors have been plucked by the cables and are unknown. The first update is made

"No, Captain, the wind is too strong, we can't get close to..."

"The power of the cable is too strong, we can't hide..."

More than a dozen sailors held the mast tightly. They were only one step away from the canvas, but this step was the distance between life and death.

"What should I do? Who told me what to do?" At this time, a loud sound hit everyone's ears, but the foreign sailors present couldn't understand what he was saying.

"Master Long... I'm here. Can you rush up to the main mast, cut off the floating rag, and throw it into the sea..." Xiao Letian shouted.

"Military advisor! Why did you run to the deck? We searched all the cabins and couldn't find you..." After saying that, Xiang Shaolong was about to untied the rope, but Xiao Letian stopped him. "Don't untickle it. Don't see me getting wet outside, but I'm very safe now... You should tear this piece of rag to pieces, and I'll be safer..."

Xiang Shaolong knew that once Xiao Letian had a bad temper, no one said it would work. He had to let go of the military advisor, pull out a shiny dagger from his arms and bit it in his mouth, and use his hands and feet to climb up from the main mast.

The foreign sailors were stunned. A Chinese man who was said to have never been to the sea, climbed up the masts and was more agile and steady than the old sailors like them.

How could they know that Xiang Shaolong's hands are now filled with internal strength, and he can press out a faint handprint by grabbing the wooden mast.

Master Long climbed up the mast and quickly approached the broken canvas flying in the wind. At this time, half of the cable was soaked with rain and was squeaking in the air. If it was pulled into a person, it would definitely fly directly into the sea. Xiang Shaolong looked down at the green sea water, then looked up at the dark sky, gritted his teeth and flew out like a swallow.

"No..." The Captain Corsica and the sailors on the deck exclaimed collectively. They didn't understand why the bodyguard of scholar Xiao committed suicide? But before they could finish calling, an incredible scene appeared. Xiang Shaolong actually grabbed the rope that was whipping in the air like a sea swallow.

At this time, Xiang Shaolong flew around in the sky like a kite under the guidance of a cable. More and faster chapters were invited. Then his wrist suddenly exerted force, and the cable straightened up suddenly. Then he shook his hand and his hand flew straight to the connection between the rope and the mast with his inertia.

The light of a knife flashed, and the broken canvas like a flag flew into the vast sea, and Master Long fell like a kite with a broken string.

"Hero! Be careful..." The foreigners were so excited that they burst into tears. They did not expect that this Qing Dynasty man sacrificed his life for the safety of the entire ship.

But before their tears could flow through their chins, Mr. Long suddenly shook his left hand and half of the rope pulled out like a spirit snake. With a crisp sound, Mr. Long turned his danger into safety.

The foreign sailors were stunned. Looking at Xiang Shaolong, who was as flexible as apes, didn't know how to describe it, but these old sailors knew that the safety factor of merchant ships has been greatly improved.

Master Long walked to Xiao Letian in the wind and rain, shouting loudly, "Mr. Xiao... Enter the cabin..." But Xiao Letian shook his head desperately, shouting loudly in Master Long's ear, "I won't go back... Do you know... Scientists have counted that tying himself to the mast in the storm... The chance of survival is much higher..."

I don’t know what nonsense Xiao Letian heard from the Bricks’ analysis in his previous life. Anyway, he remembers that a documentary once said that when the shipwreck occurred and when the wooden sailboat was about to disintegrate, the mast was one of the most likely wreckage to escape. On the contrary, if people were hiding in the cabin, once the sea water poured back, many people would have been drowned before they could swim out.

"Master Long, do you know? If this boat really falls apart, we can go to the sea to take a shower at most. This big wood will immediately take us to float up. As long as we can breathe, we can stand up..."

Master Long has also made the storm faint now, and he has always regarded Xiao Letian as an omniscient scholar, so he doesn't doubt his lies at all. "Okay, I'll go to the cabin to inform the brothers and let them go to the deck to get wet on the rain..."

After a while, the Captain of Corsica stared blankly as Xiao Letian and dozens of his subordinates came out, tied himself to masts or wooden barrels one by one, and some even tied them directly to the side of the ship on both sides of the deck.

"The military advisor is there, we are there..." Xiang Shaolong, Xiao Hexin, Sima Yun, Luo Huo... These most loyal subordinates actually appeared on the Lucky Number, and there was also a middle-aged man with a sallow complexion. This person was very strange, but people around him, including Xiao Letian, respected him very much. The first time update

"Crazy, these are all a group of madmen..." Captain Corsica had no time to snore with them. When he saw that the mast was safe, he turned around and went back to the captain's room.

Until now, Lucky can only rely on the power of luck. This wooden clipper floated in the middle of the waves, drifting helplessly with the flow. The people all over the boat were praying to the gods in their minds, hoping to escape this disaster.

The most difficult moment finally passed. Half an hour later, Xiao Letian, who was singing "Internationale", suddenly found that at the end of his sight, a trace of light came in. It was the end of the storm, the edge of the entire storm cloud, and the sun finally appeared again.

"The sun always comes after the wind and rain, and there is a clear sky on the dark clouds... The sun always comes after the wind and rain, please believe there is a rainbow..." Xiao Letian, who had broken the gongs, finally defeated the evil sea god, the evil dragon, and almost drove the people on the deck crazy with his sonic weapon.

In fact, when Xiao Letian recalled the storm, he said with great sarcasm, "Master, I was scared at that time. Fortunately, the heavy rain kept me wet. Otherwise, you would see me wet my pants and singing can boost your courage. Now it seems that I really didn't lie to me..."

The sea finally began to calm down. At this time, the sea was surprisingly beautiful. There were only slight waves on the sea. The sky above the head was half black and half bright. A rainbow ran across the sky. Countless seagulls were flying at the bright end. The fish on the sea were extremely active due to the abundant oxygen brought by the storm.

"Master Shi, what are you looking at?" Xiao Letian, who had taken two sips of strong wine, walked to the bow of the boat, stood beside the middle-aged man with a sallow face, and handed over the silver wine pot.

"I was thinking that our trip to Ryukyu this time is likely to be a big storm. I just don't know if we can see the rainbow after the storm like the strange songs you sang!" The man with a waxy face opened his mouth and his voice was extremely familiar. It was Shi Dakai, who was disguised, and our King of Wings.

Xiao Letian smiled and took a deep breath, "Don't worry, Master Shi, Ryukyu is in a vacuum of power now, and our enemy is only one of the Shimazu families in the Satsuma family. As long as they are shocked, Ryukyu will not escape our palms..."

At this moment, the lookout hand suddenly yelled in French, "There is a shipwreck ahead, and a shipwreck just a mile ahead..." The Captain Corsica rushed to the bow of the ship and opened the monocular telescope to look.
