"In the morning, the sea, the morning sun, the mist shrouded curtain, the dense scattered morning light, although not a rare spectacle, but it is barely desirable, this... or it should be a good omen."
Qiubai turns around and looks back at the line of water and sky in the distance.
At this time, the storm had just passed, and the uniform blue with indescribable clarity was intertwined with the cool sunlight shining through the hazy fog in the morning. From the perspective of simple appreciation, his statement was very reasonable, which was an attractive scene.
However, from the weather point of view, although the direction of the sun is so thin that it can even be ignored, it should be "him and her", or rather, it should be "him and her", and the direction of moving forward is not the same.
In front of us is a dense fog with a visual distance of less than two meters, which is enough to block the vision.
"It's really beautiful, if you can look at the scenery from another place." Behind Qiu Bai, there was a conditional voice of approval with hypothesis.
"Well, I said it's a good time to go to sea recently... cough! Let go, I'm going to suffocate!"
Before he could express what he wanted in a complacent tone, an arm wrapped around his neck from behind his back and forced him to rein in.
Of course, what he said has an exaggerated element. After all, the other party can't have so much strength. It's hard to realize the idea of strangling with such a hand - especially at this time when her strength is extremely weak, otherwise the other party may not really do so.
"So, to say, to change, to say, to say, to say, to say, to say, to say, to say!" The female voice behind him said word by word.
Even if she doesn't need to emphasize it, Qiu Bai can understand the situation of the two people now - no matter how beautiful the scenery is, no one will appreciate it if they are immersed in the sea after death.
Apart from Qiu Bai, although the situation was so bad that he was still really appreciating it from the perspective of "discovering beauty". After all, the world was too strange for him.
Through the fog that permeates the whole space, we can see that there is a floating board drifting with the waves on the relatively calm sea. Half of the floating board sinks in the sea, half floats on the water. On the floating board lies a boy who looks 15 or 16 years old. His name is Qiu Bai.
And there was a younger looking girl on his back... or the word "back" was not appropriate. In order not to be lost in the storm, the two were tightly trapped together by a rope with two thick fingers.
"Going to sea... It was really a wrong decision. I should have stayed to participate in the sea soldier selection. If I was on a warship, I would not encounter such a thing as capsizing... At least not so soon." The girl said, her tone was as plain as a stick reading, but it was easy to feel the complaints after the content was continuous.
"No, no, I said before that sea soldiers are not important. What is important is that you should use your own boat to go to sea. As for something slightly unfortunate..."
He shamelessly turned capsizing in the boundless sea into a "slightly unfortunate" thing.
"To be honest, I think we have created a miracle, and even warships in this sea area cannot be guaranteed to survive for more than three days." In his solemn retort, he also seriously insisted that there was no mistake in his chosen time to go to sea.
As for the miracle he said... two people with zero knowledge of navigation, piloting a single mast fishing boat with a keel length of less than 10 meters, were killed after floating on the sea for three days. If this is not a miracle, what is a miracle?
Well, this is a miracle. After all, the sea where they are now is called the New World. The sepulchre of the pirate, the second half of the great route, and the sea conditions will never stabilize the new world for five minutes.
“……”
The girl was speechless, because to a large extent what Qiu Bai said was an irrefutable fact.
Starting from their hometown, an inconspicuous island, the New World has been miraculously calm for three days since they went to sea, so they are also very safe... until last night.
The new world is really the new world. This is the high play area. How can you be a novice village and still lose your temper?
Realizing that she should not pay any attention to the person in front of her, the girl returned to her usual state of "indifference. jpg".
Qiubai didn't want to ask for trouble. He just "drifted with the current", and at the same time, he stretched out his hand to stroke the water from time to time to adjust the direction of the float. He didn't talk anymore - it was impossible.
"Listen..."
He was silent for no more than five minutes, and suddenly he began to speak again as if he had found something important.
"Why?" The girl looked around nervously. Is there any crisis hidden in the fog? She can't feel it.
Then she heard him say, "Listen... Loneliness is singing."
On the wet and cold sea, he looked like a steam engine because of the white fog he kept talking.
“……”
"You don't think I can't really strangle you." Really, she was already a little impatient. She was already highly nervous, but someone was still adding weight to the tight line.
"Well, I just want to liven up the atmosphere." Obviously Qiubai also realized that his joke did not achieve the desired effect. Although he could be sure that he would not be strangled, he would certainly be strangled half to death, so he quickly saved, "Also, there is a matter of high priority that I have forgotten to ask... Is our record pointer still there?"
This is not a very important thing. It is the most fatal thing in this sea. According to the setting of the exotic magnetic field in the world, without a recording pointer, there is no life to live.
"Lost."
The girl who was in a bad mood simply said what should have been the worst answer, but she then said, "It's OK to move in the current direction."
She touched the pendant hanging on her chest, which was a spare pointer... In fact, the two men's magnificent "big voyage" was just to go from their hometown island to the nearest prosperous island. In terms of straight-line distance, the voyage might be less than 50 kilometers, but because of sea conditions and other problems, they needed to take a turn.
After hearing what the other person said, Qiubai also understood that there is still a pointer... Unfortunately, the girl has done something. This statement does not cause fear, and then let him shut up, only to let his mouth continue to owe creative opportunities.
"In that case... our great voyage will end before it starts. In this case, there is a word that has been deeply buried in my heart. Before I die, I must tell you, Rousi."
The girl frowned. Who is Rou Si?
Qiubai took a deep breath and began his performance as if he had made up his mind
However, his solemn and stirring "affectionate confession" was mercilessly interrupted by the other party.
"Really, if you like my eyes so much, tell me what color my pupils are?"
"Er......"
"If I dare to turn back, I will drown you in the sea every moment."
The cold tone made Qiubai's attempt to turn her neck and reconfirm failed.
"Amber? No, let me think again... Blue, definitely blue, well, sapphire blue."
Unfortunately, the fact is just the opposite. Some girls have red pupils.
It was a bad performance. He knew it.
"... Well, you know, people often fail to respond to things they are used to. For example, I often forget that I am a pink hair, and..."
"Shut up, thank you." The girl said the command called Request in human common language.
She was finally tired.
But Qiubai really shut up this time, joking all over the place, although in essence he just wanted to keep the spirit of the other party... Let's just believe it.
Just when he shut up, God opened his eyes, and the thick fog that lingered in front of them suddenly disappeared, and the island...... Was close in front of him.
"Looking ahead, I saw the destination, Qiubai." The girl's voice was full of joy. Even if it was not pleasant to be saved, it was also a lucky sign of super crossbow level to keep more than two meters away from Qiubai after being saved.
In fact, in terms of time and sailing distance, it was not far from the destination when the two overturned.
"Attention, I will speed up." Qiubai said.
Before he found the island, he had to save his energy, because he didn't know how long he would stay next, but now it is different. It is important to land on the island as soon as possible.
Soaking in the cold sea water in the morning is definitely not a pleasant experience. Qiubai can feel her body shaking behind him from time to time. Although he is much better, he can never reach the goal of warming her with his body temperature.
After the loss of fog, when viewed from the sky, they look even smaller than the open sea.
Saying that acceleration is real acceleration, Qiu Bai is very confident about his physical strength, so... after an hour of competitive dog digging, they finally arrived at the shore.
"We landed safely," Qiubai sighed, and then he continued, "On second thought, we are really lucky. At least we didn't encounter any sea animals..."
He should think more carefully. Did someone feel this kind of luck before they met the storm? People are different from each other. Some people's character is really untrustworthy, and some flags are absolutely consistent.
The coast was close in front of us, and they could land immediately, but the calm sea behind us was suddenly violently disturbed.
In an instant, the water waves were "pushed" up, as if a large area of the sea had been overturned. Then the water curtain fell back to the sea under the effect of gravity, and a huge black and blue figure appeared.
Wide jaw, big mouth and sharp teeth, eyes exposed in the narrow gap with fierce cold light... This is probably the last thing that is needed on the great route.
Neptune.
And as long as this thing comes out of the water, it's certainly not a matter of saying "hello".
Qiubai blinked her eyes, always feeling a little aggrieved.
"When the water rises 50 meters, the total length is estimated to be more than 150 meters, and the thickness is 5 meters. After accurate calculation and conservative estimation, we can't stop it."
When the girl calmly made an assessment, Qiubai did not know when she broke the rope between the two people, and then reached out to hold her waist. Then she put her on the driftwood when she pulled back.
"Go ahead!"
Half floating on the water, he pressed his arms on the board and exerted force at the same time. In a flash, under the huge force, the man with the board directly sent more than 200 meters away.
Although he has never dealt with such a big opponent before, from the reflection, he is still calm at this time, at least he knows to send the girl away first... first for protection, second because the ability to soak in the sea is useless.
"Huck!"
"So don't call me by my own name, Ian!"
Qiubai was facing the huge thing in front of him, and his loud voice diverted the other party's attention back from the girl who had gone away.
"By the way, although you are smiling obscenely, you should eat me first. Just now... Tut, I have carried away most of my feelings and noble personality as a guarantee. Sincerely, little girls at this age don't have much meat... especially in some places where there should be meat."
The sea animal really didn't understand this gentleman's topic. Its head slightly stagnated in mid air, and then it fell down like a meteorite falling from the sky.
Although Qiubai was not completely sure how to deal with this sea animal... It was mainly because Qiubai could not guarantee that his attack could hit, but his choice was still to face the enemy - turning around and running was undoubtedly the worst choice. In the sea, human beings would never be able to run over this thing.
Qiubai raised her left arm, straight towards the sea king, and then held it in her palm, as if she were about to launch an attack.
However, Newton's third law says that "there is no way to force without absolute certainty", which is quite correct. Just when he was about to fight, the sea king was separated
But a second ago, Qiu Bai seemed to hear the sharp and swift friction sound... If he were a swordsman, it would be one of the most familiar sounds.
"Boom."
The huge head fell into the sea, which made a little noise. It floated and sank several times, and finally it was immersed in the sea bottom.
The half body of the sea animal was still on the sea, as if it had not felt that its head had disappeared, but the thick and fishy blood began to drip from the smooth cut.
When Qiubai turns to look back, he sees
The sea is divided into two by the clean sword qi, as if the sea water at the moment is not fluid but has solidified... No, even if it is solid, it can't be done without considerable strength.
Was someone saved?
When I squint again and look forward, it seems that there is someone standing there on the coast, but the other person's appearance is not true at this distance.
