Chapter 166 The storm strikes
The deep-sea area presents a different scenery.
Compared with later generations, the islands of this era retained a natural appearance. Thanks to the Ming Dynasty's maritime ban policy, the residents of the original island had long moved in, reducing the damage to the islands by humans.
The blue sea, the crowds of fish, the white beach, and the paradise of freedom of birds and beasts, everything looks even better.
It was just that the fleet sailed in the deep sea area, so the place where we moored that night was no longer a quiet bay, but chose to be in shallow water areas near the island.
The sky is full of red clouds, the sunset is like blood, and the whole world is red.
However, there were no fish where the big boat stopped, or some big fish that could not be caught. Lin Weiran simply gave up sea fishing. Seeing the beautiful scenery of the island in front, he planned to go to the top of the boat to appreciate the more
A full scenery.
"stop!"
The group of four was about to reach the wooden ladder leading to the third floor when a Jinyiwei walked down and shouted terriblely, staring at them coldly, as if they were seeing the enemy who killed their father.
"We just want to go up and see the scenery, please make some convenience!" Lin Weiran didn't expect this person to react so much, pointing to the top and expressing his demands.
"Get down!" Jinyiwei had a gloomy face and shouted sternly.
Facing such a arrogant Jinyiwei, Ning Jiang was aroused from the young master's temper, and he was about to walk up and shouted: "Don't be rampant, I'll go upstairs today to see who dares to stop me!"
However, the Jinyiwei was also a tough guy. He immediately pulled out a bright sharp blade and looked at Ning Jiang with his eyes narrowed, as if he was really going to take action.
"Chen San, don't be rude!" But at this moment, an officer walked down.
"Huo... General Huo Shen, I also do my job as I told you. These disciples do not know how to elevate you!" Chen San bowed to the general, but his attitude was still tough.
General Huo Chan nodded slightly at him, then looked at Lin Xuran and others and said kindly: "You are going to take the exam, so you have given you some convenience, but there are rules on the ship, so please abide by it, how about?"
"We know, let's go!" Yang Futian took Ning Jiang's hand and said with a smile at General Huo Shen.
Seeing that the ginseng general had a pretty good temper, Ning Jiang restrained the young master's temper and let Yang Futian pull him down.
Lin Weiran did not choose to continue the argument, but turned to leave, but noticed that General Huo Shen's left hand seemed to be injured.
After staying on this ship for so long, how could he not know that the third floor was the residence of the big man, not only the Jinyiwei on it, but he even faintly heard the eunuchs' voices.
But the existence of eunuchs does not mean anything. In fact, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty trusts eunuchs more, so many places are located in the guardian eunuchs. Eunuchs are not only the emperor's eyes and ears, but also play an important role in the military and political affairs of the Ming Dynasty.
After dinner, the sky suddenly suddenly became dark clouds like ink rolling from the east. After a lightning flashed through the sky, drops of raindrops as big as soybeans hit the boat.
There seemed to be no sign, and a big storm came quietly.
The night sky is dark and dull, and the waves outside are endless. The hull moves with the waves. Occasionally, the waves hit the boat, as if a whip is whipping, causing some wooden boards to roar in the hull.
Lin Qingran originally wanted to read the book, but the hull was shaking too hard, so he gave up this idea.
The oil lamp was out, the whole room was pitch black and was shaking with the waves.
"The way of university is to be clear about virtue, to be close to the people, and to stop at the ultimate good..."
Chen Qingshu muttered something, but he recited the "Great Learning", as if the Four Books and Five Classics could ensure his completeness.
Yang Futian and Ning Jiang hid in Lin Yanran's bed. They originally wanted to listen to Lin Yanran's story, but the hull was shaking too hard and seemed to have forgotten their original purpose.
A deafening thunder rolled in from the sky, as if it was on its head, as if it could slash on the hull at any time. With the shaking hull, everyone was trembling with fear.
Even Chen Qingshu, who had lived in Dianbai City since childhood, faced this situation, he stopped reading "The Great Learning" and ran to Lin Yanran's bed barefoot, and the four of them were grouping together to keep warm.
"Why do I think the ship is going to fall apart?" Yang Futian said worriedly.
"You crow's mouth, don't talk!" Ning Jiang said hatefully.
"Don't worry, such small storms cannot destroy the sea boat!" Lin Qingran comforted.
Despite this, everyone's scalp was still numb when they heard the stormy waves outside, and they were extremely worried. People who have not experienced such storms are afraid that they will not really feel this worry.
However, the storm seemed endless. In order to avoid wind and waves, the fleet decided to hide on the other side of the island, so the ship was still sailing slowly in the waves.
"Oh no, my jade pendant is gone!" Ning Jiang realized it later and suddenly touched his body and said anxiously.
"Isn't your family very rich? Just change it to another one!" Lin Qingran said lightly unmoved.
"My family's ancestors are here, I'm afraid that this is all in the world!" Ning Jiang said and got out of bed, ignoring the bumps of the hull.
Lin Qingran also had a hard-mouthed and soft-hearted temperament. Seeing him so anxious, he walked to the table and lit the candle.
"Thank you, senior brother!"
Ning Jiang, wearing white clothes, was crawling on the ground, groping for the jade pendant, watching the wax light shine, and turned around and thanked him.
ah!
Lin Junran's heart immediately rose to his throat. The handsome young man, Ning Jiang, was particularly ferocious at this time, with blood falling from his head, and a stream of blood was flowing from his forehead to his cheeks.
"Young Master!" Ning Jiang's book boy also saw this tragedy, but rushed over and shouted.
Ning Jiang stretched out his hand in confusion, looked down at the blood in his hands, and said the word "blood" in surprise. As soon as he finished speaking, his eyelids flipped and he fainted.
Seeing this situation, a layer of cold sweat surged on everyone's backs. There was no big noise in this living person. Why did Ning Jiang suddenly get injured and die?
Huh?
It was just when he was confused that Lin Weiran suddenly heard a "tick" sound from the floor. He raised his head and looked up, but saw drops of blood emerging in the cracks on the interlayer above, and blood drips formed and
Drop down.
Looking at Ning Jiang's location, he knew that the indifferent young man had nothing to do with him, and he was not even injured at all. The blood was not his, but the blood dripping on it just fell on his head.
Something happened upstairs?
