"Mrs. I said before that I recognized our boss's relatives. What my wife said was Miss Jin Qiao?"

“…!”

I just felt like a thunder exploded with a rumbling sound from above my head, which made me feel a little dazed. I stared at him and couldn't speak for a while.?

But that name is like the echo of thunder, constantly echoing in my mind—

Jin Qiao...

Yang Jinqiao...

I suddenly remembered that dignified, beautiful, wise face in plainness. Although I had already guessed from Chang Qing's words that she was still in the world and had already seen her "resurrected from the dead" outside Yangzhou City, for some reason, when I heard Boss Wang mention her, I still felt shocked.

I subconsciously said: "She—"

But as soon as he spoke, he heard footsteps coming from behind him as Lao Yao and Han Zitong approached. At this moment, a wave hit him, the hull swayed slightly, and the rope ladder was also shaking violently. The boatmen below immediately urged: "Boss, come here quickly."

"It's hard to leave when the wind and waves get bigger."

"Boss, hurry up."

Boss Wang looked at me with a frown, as if there were thousands of words, but I couldn't speak. I thought about it and said, "Boss Wang, everything will be fine."

He glanced at me and finally nodded: "Yes."

After saying that, he turned around and took a rope ladder.

We continued to move forward by Boss Wang and his ship.

After almost a timely voyage, we bypassed Zhoushan. According to Boss Wang's description, the naval battle was fought south of Zhoushan. However, when we arrived at that sea area, the place had already returned to peace.

Of course, this kind of calm is only relatively speaking.

What he described as ignited, the waves higher than the hull, the shrill sounds of wind, water, and roars have become the past. At this moment, what we can see with the blood-red light of the setting sun is the endless sea.

However, when the sun slowly sinks to the sea level, the slightly undulating waves of the sea have become a little no longer calm.

After dinner, I stood on the deck outside for a while, but I was already so shaken that I could hardly stand firmly. Just as I was about to turn around and return to the cabin, Han Zitong, who had been standing next to me, suddenly pounced on the fence and poked her head out, and vomited with a wow.

I hurried over and reached out to gently wipe her back to help her breath. She vomited several times before turning her head with a pale face: "I——"

Before he finished speaking, suddenly, the hull shook violently.

She couldn't stand steadily, and her whole body leaned forward, and her abdomen hit the fence, which made her cry, but she couldn't spit out anything at all. She just lifted her heel and almost fell out of the boat.

I hurriedly reached out and grabbed her by the arm and pulled her away.

But before we stood firm, the hull shook again, and we almost fell on our back. She and I subconsciously grabbed the fence and heard a loud bang, and a huge wave hit the bow of the boat. The splashes of water rushed towards us, almost wet from head to toe.

My arms were tightly wrapped around the fence before I could barely stand firm. I looked back at them in panic: "What's going on?"

The boatmen were obviously more experienced than us. When the hull was shaking, they had already found their respective positions. Several even climbed up the thick cables to climb up and look into the distance. The shaking hull made them sway like grasshoppers on the ropes, and their eyes looking into the distance also showed a hint of horror.

They shouted to the deck, "What should I do if I am old?"

At this moment, we also turned our heads and saw a huge cloud covering the sky and the sun flying towards us on the sea surface directly in front of us, casting huge and thick shadows on the sea surface. As the dark clouds moved, the whole earth seemed to darken, the sun disappeared, and the sea surface was swallowed by darkness. What's even more terrifying is that we saw that where the dark clouds and the sea surface were connected, there were flashing lightning, and even rumbling thunder.

That's-

When the old boatman saw this, he also showed a solemn expression on his face. He waved his hand and shouted: "Switch the rudder! Get ready to retract the sail!"

With his order, all the boatmen immediately began to get busy.

Taking advantage of this time, the hull was slightly calmer. Han Zitong and I struggled to stand up. When we heard a bang, a rein thicker than our arms fell down and hit us. The splashes of water splashed on our faces. When we looked up, we saw that several boatmen climbing on the fence had lowered the rope and were about to reclaim the sails.

The old boatman came over with a few people to pick up the rope and pulled it down hard. He heard a long and dumb whispering sound, and the tall sail was slowly pulled down by them.

The old boatman reached out to wipe his face, turned around and saw us, and immediately shouted: "You two, please hurry up and enter the cabin."

We staggered two steps, and I grabbed the hatch door with one hand and asked loudly, "It won't be a problem, right?"

The old boatman glanced at me.

Without an answer, he turned around and took another group of people to collect the sails at the stern.

Without getting his answer, Han Zitong and I had no time to stay any longer, so we could only stumble back to our respective cabins. However, sitting in the cabins could not calm down just like this. Listening to the sound of the sea water slapped the hull, and the sound of wailing sounds that came from the masts when they were subjected to the strong wind, everyone's heart was hanging in their throats.

It turned out that Boss Wang said before leaving that "the weather is not good", which was really not a casual statement.

I stood by the window and looked out. It was dark very quickly. At this time, I could no longer see my fingers. The dark sea surface was filled with huge waves, as if a black hand was stirring the sea. The increasingly larger and larger waves hit our hull as if an attacking army was hitting the city gate.

A moment of tilt...restores balance.

Another tilt...return to balance again.

My hand holding the window frame couldn't help but exert a little force, because at this time, the cups on the table had completely slid to the ground and fell to pieces, but I could not hear any broken sounds.

Because of the sound of the waves, roaring around, it had covered everything.

At this moment, the cabin door of my room was suddenly opened, and the lights in the room had already gone out. I turned around and could only barely see a familiar figure stumble in. Another huge wave came, and the hull swayed suddenly. She couldn't stand firmly and rushed to me.

"ah--!"

"Are you okay?"

I subconsciously reached out and hugged her. In the dark night, I could hardly see the expression on her face clearly, and I could only see her particularly bright eyes looking at me with fear: "Is our ship going to overturn?"

I grabbed the window frame with one hand and hugged her with the other: "It's okay."

“…”

“No.”

"But-" Her eyes flickered even harder, as if the faint candlelight in the hurricane would go out at any time: "I just heard the people on the deck shouting, "They're not good."

“…”

“We might want—”

"No!" I gritted my teeth, but interrupted her with trembling. I looked at the dark sky and the dark sea outside the window with almost cruelty, and said viciously: "I haven't found my daughter yet! I can't die!"

“…”

"As for you-" I looked down at her and made a smile. However, at this moment, maybe because of being too scared, or because of being too hard, my smile became a little distorted and hideous: "Your dream has not been achieved yet, right?"

“…”

"You haven't even told the person you love yet, right?"

“…”

"We will not die! We cannot die!"

Han Zitong didn't say anything, but I could feel her breathing, hot and rapid, blowing between my neck, and her hands, wrapping around my waist with force, almost cutting off my entire body, without letting go.

Maybe I never even dreamed that she and I would get along like this.

However, when people are most afraid and dangerous, any opposition of interests and emotional likes and dislikes become clouds and smoke, and they can only grasp the person in front of them.

After all, she is just a princess who is strong and even irritable outside but is as soft as a child on her heart.

Thinking of this, I subconsciously patted her on the shoulder, as if I wanted to give her some comfort, and said, "I can't bear to die!"

I can't, I'll die here!

However, as if it was a response to my words, as soon as I finished speaking, I heard a thunderous sound of thunder coming from the surging waves outside.

With a rumbling sound, the entire sea surface seemed to be boiling, and our ship seemed to be hit, shook it hard, and the two of us were immediately thrown aside by the huge force and hit the wall heavily.

Suddenly, a severe pain came from my shoulder armor, and I shouted in pain: "Ah——!"

However, my voice was immediately swallowed up by the huge sound of waves outside. What followed was the huge wailing sound from the hull beneath us, and the door was completely in chaos. All the servants and maids didn't care about anything at this time, screamed in horror, and ran outside.

"The ship is going to sink!"

"Help! Help!"

Their messy footsteps came from the floor, which made me feel deaf, and Han Zitong also rolled down to me, her head was messy and looked particularly embarrassed: "Do we want to go out?"

I didn't say anything, just lay on the ground.

An extremely strange sound, as if the roar from the depths of the sea was accompanied by waves and shrill shattering sounds.

Han Zitong also lay beside me, obviously she heard it too.

At this moment, a white light suddenly flashed outside the window, and lightning broke through the sky, illuminating the entire sea, and illuminating the pale face that was close to me. She looked at me and behind me, and the round eyes that stared at me, reflecting my outline and the suddenly broken cabin wall behind me.

I only felt a turbulent and upside down, as if the whole world was messed up. A burst of cold water suddenly poured in, rolling her and me and her heavily into the opposite wall, and then rolling our bodies and suddenly throwing out of the broken cabin.

Suddenly, my world fell into darkness.
