Chapter 114 Weird Ship
Due to the chaos of war, the docks of Sishui in Quanzhou no longer show its prosperity in the past. Originally, there were always bustling ships on the docks, but now there are only three or five small boats together. Fortunately, the people of Sishui did not withdraw. I heard that several old gods were going to go out to sea, and the manager hurriedly contacted the big ships that could travel far away.
It was calculated that a merchant ship traveling to Persia could arrive at the port in about three days. At present, the manager arranged for Wu Mian to live in the inn at the dock. As long as the merchant ship arrived at the port and cleared the goods above, he immediately arranged for them to go to sea.
I knew that these old gods were all distinguished guests of their boss. Although the dock was no longer as beautiful as before, the manager began to do his best to entertain the old gods. Almost every meal had a big banquet. On the way to the dock, Bai Wuqiu and Xiao Rensan had almost never had enough. At the dock, they finally saw the wine and meat. At this moment, the two monsters were drunk almost every day.
However, the Persian merchant ship had not arrived at the port for a long time. The merchant ship that was originally scheduled to come back in three or five days was not seen after half a month. The wharf manager arranged for a small boat to go to sea and contacted him with a drum, but never received any news about the merchant ship. It seemed that the ship might have encountered something unexpected, maybe it was a storm or encountered pirates, so he could no longer expect it to carry Wu Mian, Gui Bu and others to go to sea.
Apart from this merchant ship, there are no more ships that can go out to sea recently. Nanhai County is not much better than Quanzhou. Since the beginning of the Huang Chao riot, Tangjing has almost cut off foreign trade transactions.
In the end, Bai Wuqiu was still not anxious. Erlangzi stood on the dock and called countless sirens. It asked the sirens to go to other seas to find ships that could go out of the sea. No matter how it was, the Sishui had some money. Let them pay for money and let them go out to sea first.
After receiving Bai Wuqiu's order, the sirens began to get busy. After half a day, they dragged a sea boat to the dock.
Just when the wharf manager prepared money and was about to compensate the owner of the ship, he suddenly said "Hmm?", then wiped his eyes and said to Wu Mian, Gui Bugui: "This is the Persian merchant ship that should have arrived at the port half a month ago. Everyone thought they had encountered a shipwreck. Fortunately, it's okay... it's good to come back."
Just when the manager was about to call the guy to unload the goods, he was stopped by Gui Bugui: "I'm back, but something still happened. Don't hurry to let someone go up to unload the goods. There are no living people on the ship..." When he spoke, the old guy had disappeared out of thin air. A sharp-eyed guy saw a figure on the deck of the merchant ship, and it was Gui Bugui who suddenly disappeared.
Gui Bugui suddenly showed this move, which scared the manager. Just as he was about to flatter the old guy with two monsters, Gui Bugui appeared in front of him out of thin air. The old guy ignored the manager and said to Wu Mian: "The goods are still there, and no one was found on the ship. It's interesting. Someone deliberately refused to let us go to sea. Silly boy, ask your demons, how far away did they find this ship?"
"Boys! Have you heard your grandpa's words? Where did you find this ship?" Bai Wuqiu shouted at the siren who were seeking credit, and then screamed for a while. After Bai Wuqiu understood, he said to the old guy: "They said that according to our words, they found this ship on the sea 4,000 miles away from the pier. The ship had been floating there for more than ten days, but these children also said that no dead people fell into the sea near the ship."
Gui Bugui nodded with a smile, then glanced at Wu Mian again. After seeing the white-haired man, there was nothing to say, the old guy continued: "The goods did not move, and the ship was not damaged.
If the people on the boat can't be found, it has nothing to do with storms, pirates, etc. Someone deliberately refused to let us go to sea. Guess who would be thinking about us so much?"
Wu Mian smiled in his unique way and said, "Guess? I'll just ask Xu Fu."
Gui Bugui smiled and then followed Wu Mian's words and said, "That's simple. Who can you let the guys unload the goods? Old man, I took this ship's cargo to see Xu Fu. Maybe he shamelessly thought it was a gift for him. After unloading the ship, load food and drinking water. There is no need to arrange for the boss of the ship to us, we will drive the boat to sea by ourselves."
Such a large ship cannot be controlled without twenty or thirty people. However, Wu Mian, Gui Bugui is a famous god, and he doesn't dare to ask. He just followed Gui Bugui's instructions and arranged for the guys to unload the goods while delivering the food he had already prepared to the ship.
After working for a long time, Wu Mian, Gui Bugui and others, and the demon finally boarded the ship. At this time, there were countless sirens around the dock, so they simply stopped shy away. Bai Wuqiu directly ordered the strong and fast sirens to drag the ship towards the depths of the sea.
The big ship left at an incredible speed. Such a speed of sailing was unheard of, which scared the manager and the guys on the dock to exclaim. When they realized that the big ship had turned into a small black dot and disappeared from everyone's sight.
After the big ship left the dock, Gui Bugui arranged the route to get off the ship, and then Bai Wuqiu ordered the sirens to tug the boat forward. Calculated that the voyage originally took more than ten days, it would be possible to reach the sea area controlled by Xu Fu within two days.
After driving for a day, in the evening, Gui Bugui asked Bai Wuqiu to instruct the sirens to stop the ship. They had to prepare their food and rest before moving forward. Because the speed before was too fast and the ship was bumpy, they could not prepare to eat at all. Bai Wuqiu and Xiao Ren San were more or less seasick, but the two monsters endured and did not show it.
The food prepared by the manager was ready-made and could be eaten after being heated and steamed. However, after the meal was prepared, the two monsters had no appetite because of seasickness. Only Wu Mian wanted to eat a few bites and then cleaned up.
Seeing the two monsters lying on the deck, looking in a sluggish manner, Gui Bugui was a little soft-hearted. He decided to rest here for a night and continue to rush tomorrow morning. He also had to reduce his speed when sailing, after all, it was not the time he was in a hurry to see Niu'er. Now Xirang is by his side, and he is not afraid of anyone who dares to come and make an idea.
However, although the ship stopped, the two monsters were seasick but they were not strong. In the middle of the night, Bai Wuqiu was still lying on the deck and moaning and vomiting. After the ship stopped, Erlangzi's seasickness became worse. At this moment, Gui Bugui was also staying on the deck together to accompany this Erlangzi. The old guy had some ways to treat seasickness, but it was of no use to monsters.
I don’t know how many times Bai Wuqiu was lying on the boat and started vomiting. After he finished vomiting, he wiped his mouth and wanted to go back and continue lying down. Suddenly, he saw a bright light appearing on the sea in the distance.
Erlangzi frowned and looked at the place where the light was emitted, then turned to Gui Bugui and said, "Old guy, my eyes were so blurred. Look at the other side, is there a ship coming?"
Gui Bugui's eyesight was far less than that of this naughty man. After watching for a while, he didn't see the highlights it said. However, Bai Wuqiu looked more and more clearly. Finally, it shouted to the sirens next to the ship: "Boys! Come and see if there is a ship coming over there? See what kind of ship it is? Few people dragged it over. I will rub their ship tomorrow..."
After hearing the will of the Siren King, hundreds of Siren swam quickly towards the light position. Not long after, several of the Siren returned to the ship again and shouted at Bai Wuqiu on the ship.
After hearing this, Erlangzi translated at Gui Bugui: "They said it was really a ship there, and now these children are tuging the boat.
Old guy, you gave up some gold and bought their boat. Let's continue to set off tomorrow. These children are good, but they don't know the importance of the tug..."
