Chapter 343 Going to Sea (12)

There are 5 people on the deck of the galleon, 3 of them are sailors, 1 is the captain, and 1 is a passenger.

In the cabin, there were six people, most of them were staff members, and two were family members of the passenger on the deck.

In addition to undertaking the task of fishing on a long voyage, this ship also brought three special passengers.

They wore expensive material, well-cut clothes, and, judging from the sailor's attitude towards the family, were either rich or noble.

At this time, the male middle-aged passenger on the deck was holding on to the railing with his hand, talking with the sailor.

Huang Si listened from afar, and what they were talking about was nothing more than trivial matters.

During the conversation, we could only know that this boat was rented by this man named Gu Jing.

Gu Jing didn't board the boat alone, but brought two family members, one was his son and the other was his nephew.

"I don't need to eavesdrop. However, if I descended to ask questions openly, it would inevitably disturb these people, and it would be inconvenient for me to ask questions."

Huang thought for a while, and suddenly had an idea.

At this time, there were three members of the Gu family on the galleon, and only Gu Jing stayed on the deck.

"We have been out at sea for two days, and the journey is still long."

The sea breeze blew the hem of his robe, and the salty foam hit him.

Although the hull of the boat was shaking slightly, Gu Jing stood still, and it could be seen that his martial arts were good.

"This time, with the crystal tube provided by Mr. Gu, I must be able to explore farther places."

said the wrinkled old sailor in the blue turban.

"It's just that the wind and waves are gradually rising, please be careful, Mr. Gu."

"It's okay, the wind and waves can't throw me off the boat."

Gu Jing shook his head and continued to stay on the deck.

Holding a bamboo tube in his hand, he looked into the distance through the crystal lens inside the bamboo tube.

This thing, he also gave the captain one.

The waves between the sea and the sky are undulating, and the vision is not good, but it can be seen that there is nothing unusual.

At this time, the captain who was a little bit tummy and wearing a lambskin suit also came over.

"Mr. Gu, are you still used to living on a boat?"

"Fortunately, this time I went to sea, I was ready to suffer. I didn't expect that the food on board was quite good."

The captain smiled and said: "Mr. Gu's family are our distinguished guests. What's more, Mr. Gu gave us such a useful crystal tube, which can see far away, making us much safer."

"In the future, I hope that Mr. Gu can make more and sell them to us. I can also introduce them to my colleagues."

Gu Jing nodded and said, "It's easy to say, but this time, I hope to sail further. The last time I went to sea, I went back in only six days. This time, I want to explore further to the east."

The captain said: "The fresh water we brought this time is enough to go back and forth for ten days. If we can find a place to replenish it, we can last longer. It's just that the sea is too boring, and Mr. Gu may not find what he is looking for..."

Gu Jing smiled wryly and said: "I understand what the captain means. After ten days, if you still can't find the island or water source, just return."

The captain said a few more words to him and left.

Gu Jing looked at the sky, it was cloudy, and he didn't know what the weather would be like in a few days.

I hope it will clear up. If it is sunny, it will be easier to find something if you look far.

He is in his forties, and he doesn't know how many more years he can live. I really want to see the overseas world while still alive...

Looking at the distance, Gu Jing's mood also fluctuated with the waves.

When he was alone in the bow of the ship, suddenly, there was a low and muffled sound from nowhere, and the whole ship shook slightly.

Ordinary people might think it was the normal shaking of the boat, but Gu Jing, as a master, has more sensitive senses than ordinary people, so he quickly noticed this abnormality.

Did the boat hit something?

This large sailing ship only has some internal cabin windows on the side, and it is far from the water surface. Otherwise, it is very smooth overall. If it hits something, it is likely to be a hidden reef or a large fish, neither of which is a good thing. May cause shipwreck.

There are some small boats on the big ship, but if the ship really sinks, it may be difficult for them to go back.

At this time, the sailors below were already shouting.

At first it was one person calling, then several people.

What they shouted was: "Break into the boat!"

"There are people on board!"

"Quick! Go down and save people!"

"Tell the captain to stabilize the ship! Don't hit it again!"

Gu Jing came down from the bow and came to the side to check.

There are two sailors standing here, a little further down, at the window of the cabin, there is another sailor looking down.

Follow his line of sight down.

Sure enough, among the continuous waves, a brown boat was faintly seen floating.

It exposed half of the hull for a while, and was covered by big waves for a while.

The boat was small and capsized long ago. It could be seen that there was a person beside the boat. The person climbed the hull in a panic, barely being swept away by the waves.

Gu Jing had some doubts in his heart: "I have been looking at the sea, but was there this boat and this person on the sea just now?"

The thought just flashed through his mind.

A sailor threw a noose with a loop through the window.

There are many old sailors on this boat, the rope loop was thrown, and it landed on the half of the boat quite accurately.

The men on board noticed them too, and stretched out their arms barely, trying to reach the noose.

Gu Jing and the sailors stared at him intently, for fear that he might not be able to catch him.

The man tried several times and finally caught the rope.

He didn't seem to have much strength, and it took him several times to put the noose around his waist.

On the big boat, the sailors shouted in unison, and dragged the man to the side of the boat, and another sailor put a rope around his waist, went down, and hugged him up.

The condition of the man did not look very good, with many scratches on his body and swollen fingers. He had obviously been floating in the sea for a long time.

He shivered as soon as he got aboard, and an old sailor wrapped him in a dry sheet hastily brought.

He said thanks.

At this time, the small boat below hit the big boat again, and immediately broke into a pile of broken wood chips and was submerged in the sea water.

"You are really lucky. If you get hit this time, you will lose half your life if you don't die." Said a sailor.

The sailors took him to the cabin.

When Gu Jing saw him again, he was already in the cabin, sitting and drinking with a group of sailors.

The man changed into a sailor's clothes, and someone brought him a bowl of strong wine, and he drank it without hesitation, winning the applause of the sailors around him.

At sea, man, there's nothing you can't say as long as there's wine.

When Gu Jing came over, an old sailor patted the man on the shoulder and introduced to Gu Jing:

"Mr. Gu, this is Brother Huang. He was fishing in the sea, and he drifted a little far away when encountering wind and waves."

Another sailor put his arm around his shoulder and said:

"Why are you so careless? Fishing is still asleep on the boat, and you don't know how to hide when you see our boat."

I didn't want to write an article at first, so I had nothing to do in the afternoon and coded 12,000. What should I do? Forget it and update it.

Let me know next time I want to stop updating, meow.
