Volume Two, Chapter Eighteen: The Way of Thyme to Dispel Qi
Liu Xiao helped Yu Xiaolou have a lunch, he was a little tired, and he had inhaled too much oil fume, which made him lose his appetite.
This has almost always been the case since I helped cook.
There is a difference between learning and helping. Liu Xiao has already begun to regret it.
There were still nine people eating together. Liu Xiao had never seen Xiao Guoer since he first met him on the boat.
The crew members were not surprised by this, and Liu Xiao didn't ask any questions.
During the meal, the helmsman Linge said something that attracted everyone's attention.
"As we get closer and closer to the destination, there are many shoals of fish, and they are becoming more and more frequent, and there are even many large animals that should not be in shoals, such as sea fish."
The jellyfish is a large marine animal that is red in color, has no scales on its body, and has a bad temper. Legend has it that it only gathers together in February and August every year and turns into a bird, named the fire dove.
It's November now, far out in the ocean.
At this time, the sea turtle beasts have already changed and should appear alone, otherwise they will definitely fight with their tempers.
There is only one situation where something in the distance threatens their lives, forcing them to gather together.
Jiang Zhuzhi said loudly: "I said there is a sea monster, it must be a sea monster!"
Hua Wuchou pushed up his glasses, but he didn't have any elegance at all. Moreover, he was not nearsighted just to prevent glare. Over time, he also developed the habit of adjusting his glasses.
He said: "Are you scared? Aren't you quite happy when you knew you could find your sweetheart?"
"I'm happy. What's there to be unhappy about?"
Jiang Zhuzhi retorted, but after speaking, he muttered in a voice that only Liu Xiao could hear: "I'm just afraid..."
Thyme held her own small bowl and glanced at Jiang Zhuzhi: "Don't talk nonsense. If you say one more thing, I'll chop you up and feed it to the fish."
She has no ill intentions towards Jiang Zhuzhi, she simply doesn't like ordinary people like this who don't understand anything.
The other people on the boat were all extraordinary beings. As an ordinary person, Jiang Zhuzhi was always startled. In addition, her lively personality made Thyme dislike her very much.
Moreover, the situation is unclear now. She needs to ensure that the crew members are united and the morale of the military cannot be weakened. Jiang Zhuzhi's random talk may cause trouble.
Jiang Zhuzhi had heard her say many times that she wanted to chop herself up and feed it to the fish, but she was still very scared. She didn't know why, but she always felt that this cute little girl who looked harmless to humans and animals would be above such a thing.
Maybe I've done it before.
So she shut her mouth immediately.
Everyone looked at Thyme, waiting for her to speak.
Thyme jumped down from the chair and found that she was not as tall as sitting, so she climbed back up.
"The so-called sea monster was something she saw in her dream. Let's not say whether her dream was true or false. Even if it was true, the sea monster was transparent and its shape could not be seen clearly.
"You are all experienced sailors, and you should all know that the extraordinary world is so big, and dangers naturally exist.
"Pay attention to safety from today on, and start arranging lookouts on duty."
"Yes, Captain!"
Everyone agreed in unison.
Thyme jumped off the chair and glanced at Jiang Zhuzhi again, with a hint of evil deep in her calm eyes.
If you dare to ignore your own verbal warnings over and over again, no one will be able to save you if you do it again next time.
Jiang Zhuzhi shuddered and lowered his head.
Thyme returned to her room and saw Xiao Guoer standing upright beside the bed.
"Captain, are you done eating?"
He exchanged casual greetings. Although the anger on Thyme's face made him feel cold, he still forced a smile.
Sure enough, Thyme came to the bed without saying a word, climbed up, sat on the edge of the bed and raised her feet.
Xiao Guoer immediately took off her shoes.
Thyme climbed onto the bed: "Come up."
Xiao Guoer swallowed, her face turned pale, but she still agreed: "Yes."
After saying that, he also took off his shoes and got on the bed, sat next to Thyme, and then began to take off his clothes until his upper body was exposed.
The upper body covered with tooth marks, some have scabs, some have grown up leaving only faint scars, one of which is still bandaged.
Thyme didn't care so much, grinned, pushed him down, sat on him, and bit his shoulder.
"Well……"
Xiao Guoer felt pain, but he gritted his teeth and did not cry out.
The skin on her shoulder was damaged and blood flowed out, but under Thyme's sucking, it all bit her throat and flowed into her belly.
I don't know how much time passed, but Xiao Guoer was trembling all over, sweating profusely, and feeling like he was exhausted.
This kind of pain is not a simple trauma, but like a cramp pulling out a bone, something is being pulled out of the wound by thyme.
Finally stopped.
Thyme raised her face and licked the blood from the corner of her mouth: "I'll ask Yu Xiaolou to bring you the food. Have a good rest."
The voice was sweet and cute, and he smiled after saying it, so harmless to humans and animals.
Xiao Guoer already had experience, and Thyme was in a good mood at this time, so he didn't need to be careful, so he nodded.
"Thank you Captain."
After saying that, he tilted his head and closed his eyes.
Thyme put on her shoes and skipped outside.
Liu Xiao was walking on the deck and saw Thyme coming out, jumping up and down with a smile on her face.
There was some difference in her heart. The sun was shining right now, so she didn't know why she would leave the room.
So he smiled and said, "Captain Baili is in a good mood?"
"Well. I have a question. Why do you call other people senior, call me captain, and also bring your last name?"
"You mean, I also call you senior?"
Thyme brushed her hair that was messed up by the sea breeze: "No. Just call me Captain."
Liu Xiao said: "Because the others are your subordinates, but I am not."
"So you will be disobedient."
"How is that possible? What is Captain Baili referring to?"
"About the fact that I chopped up Jiang Zhuzhi and fed it to the fish."
Only then did Liu Xiao realize that she was still brooding about it. He had thought that she just talked about it and forgot about it afterwards.
"Jiang Zhuzhi is indeed straightforward. Do you know what happened when I first met her?"
"Oh? Tell me."
Thyme jumped onto the fence and sat on it, dangling her feet, showing interest in Liu Xiao's words.
Liu Xiao smiled and recounted what happened on the train, eliciting a burst of laughter from Thyme.
"Interesting, this person is really interesting. Instead of chopping her up and feeding her to fish, let her serve a few of my crew members. This will just make her dream come true."
Liu Xiao covered her face, I'm sorry Jiang Zhuzhi, I really didn't mean it.
However, he still wanted to test it to see how true Thyme's words were.
"Captain Baili is really good at joking."
"I'm not joking - if she still talks so freely.
"You should understand that this place is far away from the mainland. The crew of the Junjue is very small and the division of labor is tight. No one can do it without anyone. I don't want any uncertainty to arise because of her.
"Although I have great confidence in my crew, I have to guard against it."
Liu Xiao understood and nodded: "I'll remind her."
"I'm afraid the reminder is not enough. Tell her that I am willing to save some money for my crew."
Every time they go to sea, the time is measured in months. When they return to land next time, almost all sailors will go to the red light district.
"I will tell her the truth."
"That's good."
Thyme did a beautiful backflip, jumped off the fence, and landed firmly on the deck: "I'm leaving. It's really strange. You are not afraid of getting tanned."
Liu Xiao truthfully told Jiang Zhuzhi about her conversation with Thyme, and specially analyzed it for her.
Let her know that she is now in an extraordinary world, and she must be careful in her behavior and do not violate any taboos.
After hearing this, Jiang Zhuzhi trembled and said that he would pay attention and would definitely pay attention and talk less in the future.
In the evening, the sun sets over the west mountain.
The sun is still in the southwest, indicating that the ship is far from the equator.
The sea surface was sparkling, and except for the sound of boats passing by, there was silence.
In the east, in the distance, a dark blue mountain slowly emerged, as if rising from the bottom of the sea, rising higher and higher.
Lin Ge sounded the alarm.
A piercing siren sounded throughout the ship.
"Careful, huge waves, secure everything!"
His assistant Xia Xing ran in the cabin, shouting and alarming everyone.
No one would have thought that such a huge wave would appear in such a peaceful area.
As long as you don't sail to the east of the Tianwu Kingdom or the west of the Da Ting Empire, there should be no violent areas, and this is a large area of northern sea, so it should be peaceful.
But there was no time to think about it. Everyone started to move. The crew of the Junjue had a clear division of labor and was well-trained. They quickly put away the items in the public area, fastened the locks, and then returned to their rooms to close and lock the drawers and put the bed cabinets in the room.
Check the locks of tables and other items.
Liu Xiao had already learned the relevant content shortly after boarding the ship. He locked his belongings, brought the Guihong Sword and the whistle, and went outside the room to help.
The ship is a passenger ship and has the ability to withstand wind and waves. I just didn't expect to encounter it this time, so it seemed sudden.
Soon after I packed up my things, the waves came nearby.
The wave did not rush over as Liu Xiao expected, but drove directly to the bottom of the Jun Jue, lifting the ship instantly and pinning him to the floor due to its excessive weight.
What followed was weightlessness, and Jun Jue fell, followed by Liu Xiao. It seemed to him that he was floating in the cabin.
He felt like he was falling, but at the same time he and Jun Juehao remained still.
He felt a severe nausea just as he was about to vomit.
He hit the floor with a thud.
The impact caused pain in his chest, made him dizzy, and his nausea disappeared.
Thyme walked in from the deck, walking on flat ground.
She came to Liu Xiao and squatted down, covering the hem of her skirt with her hands: "There is no wind here. This is not an ordinary wave, it should be a shock wave. We are about to arrive. Something may have happened ahead. What are you still doing?
Can you hold it?"
Liu Xiao rubbed his chest and stood up: "The shock wave only lasts for a while, which means there will be no follow-up."
Thyme said: "This is the sea, and there will be a section coming from behind later."
Liu Xiao shook his head: "That's okay, what do you need me to do?"
"It's foggy ahead, I need your vision."
"Walk."
Liu Xiaodang walked out first, and at the same time added: "When Lang comes back, remember to tell me in advance."
I had been guarding against the boat rocking from side to side, but I didn't expect it to rock up and down, causing me to fall and gnaw on the mud.
When we came to the deck, we saw heavy fog on the originally boundless sea surface, with visibility less than 100 meters.
At a distance of a hundred meters, in front of a huge ship that can easily reach tens or even hundreds of meters, it is no different than face to face.
I glanced around and saw that the sea was as calm as a mirror. If it weren't for the ripples caused by the paddles, I couldn't even feel the boat moving.
Divine vision, open.
The dense fog ahead gradually disappeared, turning into snowflakes on the TV and like noise on the photo.
Behind the thick fog, the outline of an object slowly became clear.
Semi-curved shape, although the edges are not smooth, it is regular enough for this size.
