Chapter 230 Evil God!

While working, Fang Yuhao asked, "Are there no coals on other islands?"

The old sailor Duncan said: "Of course there are, but there are not as many as Boulder City and the quality is so good. In business, the focus is on saving money."

"That's true." Fang Yuhao pretended to be taught humbly.

In this way, the entire loading work lasted for a week. The entire large ship was fully loaded, and then everyone rested for a while.With his flexible social skills, Fang Yuhao quickly got along with the sailors.

The holiday activities of the sailors are nothing more than churches, taverns, gambling houses and brothels.

Of course Fang Yuhao doesn't eat chicken, but it's not a problem to go with him to see the excitement.Before sailing, many sailors used various methods to vent their anger crazily, even if they spent all their savings, they didn't feel bad.

"It's really free without the shackles of family." The old sailor Duncan was a little jealous of these young sailors: "Hot, you must be a scholar. You don't play with women? Boulder City is too prosperous, and various services are rare and cheap .”

Fang Yuhao turned his head and couldn't help rolling his eyes, "Mr. Duncan, like you, I already have a wife. And I have a debt to pay, so I must save some money. Otherwise, my soul will be stripped."

"Well, it's true. It will be different after having a family. If my son learns some noble etiquette, he may be able to seduce a noble girl, so that he can live comfortably for the rest of his life."

Fang Yuhao treated everyone very politely, which gave the old sailor a feeling of respect.This feeling is great, as if I have become a great noble.

"Mr. Duncan, is the Sunshine Sea really dangerous?"

"Ah... the Sunshine Sea, our final destination." Duncan took a sip of his wine and said, "If, if this voyage really reaches the Sunshine Sea...you should stay in the cabin and never go out. "

"why?"

"You are too young, yes, you are too young... It is not a good thing to be exposed to the sun too early. You will be thinking about going there, what is the Arctic Ocean? Who wants to go!" The old sailor took another sip of wine, He looked drunk, and there was an inexplicable longing in his eyes.

"I've had three sons, two daughters, and maybe this is the penultimate time I've been there in my life."

Fang Yuhao: "The penultimate time?"

"Yes, before I die, I will buy a boat ticket. I should be able to save up the money for the ticket."

Fang Yuhao said: "Mr. Duncan, have you seen... the God of Salt?"

"Hush!" Duncan raised an index finger and put it between his lips: "Did you know that Emilia, the stone god, is the gentlest deity, and you can treat her as your mother. Her curse, um, is equivalent to Your mother, or your wife is scolding you."

"However, the curse of the Salt God will not only kill you directly, but also..."

Duncan pointed to his crotch.

"what?"

This means that the curse of the Salt God will also affect your descendants!

"So, don't talk about the God of Salt in the ocean, got it?"

Fang Yuhao nodded.

Woohoo!

The steamer whistled for departure.Finally getting out of here.

Fang Yuhao hurriedly walked out of the cabin and followed the first mate's instructions to retract and retract the gangway, safety net, water deflector, mooring and unmooring cables, install and retract anti-rodent stalls, etc.Full of cargo, the waterline of the cargo ship was very deep, and the steamship "Giant Ocean" sailed slowly out of the port because it was not sailing very fast.

The dark sky is still dark, only lighthouses can be seen, and the only light is gradually fading away...

After leaving this piece of land, Fang Yuhao suddenly felt that he had left his mother's warm embrace, and he felt a strong sense of palpitation.

This discomfort came suddenly.

Soon, Duncan patted him on the shoulder.

"Every newcomer will be like this. We are all children of stone gods. Who wants to leave this land?"

……

Time passed day after day.

The boundless sea, the scenery is the same every day.The stars all over the sky are motionless, as if forever.Measuring the current position of the ship according to the astrology and compass became Fang Yuhao's regular job.

If it hadn't been measured every day that the steam ship "Giant Ocean" was getting closer to its destination, he would really doubt that this ship would be trapped in the sea forever.

From time to time, there are glowing fish floating in the ocean, which look like ghosts.Most of the creatures here are phototaxis, which means that they can attract other fish to take the bait.

But the headlights on the ship deck were never turned on. Fang Yuhao only used the reflected light from the mirrors to scan and detect the surrounding environment.

The old sailor Duncan explained: "It is said that...the huge light will attract extremely powerful and difficult to deal with sea monsters, and even a [-]-ton ship will be easily overturned, so the giant ocean usually does not turn on its headlights."

"However, the well-equipped Royal Fleet of the Empire turned on lights to attract giant sea monsters. They once caught a golden crab whose carapace was harder than a steel plate and bigger than the imperial palace. The most important thing is... it It's just a cub!"

"The carapace is comparable to a steel plate, how did you kill it?" Fang Yuhao wondered.

The first mate with a beard licked his lips and continued: "Of course it can kill! A super cannon with a caliber of more than one inch and a triangular fork weighing one ton can always kill. All I know is that gold The crab meat was sold at a sky-high price of 10 pounds per gold coin. The nobles tasted the sunshine from it! Oh, if only I could eat some!"

"If this voyage succeeds... Mr. Captain will become a baron and can buy luxury goods at a lower price. Alas, alas..."

The captain happened to get out of the cabin, and he also replied, "For this trip, each person will get as little as 20 gold coins and as many as 50 gold coins! Even more!"

Facing the long-term darkness, Fang Yuhao felt that everyone's sanity was slowly decreasing.A desire to return to the mainland is spreading.

The captain remained calm and kept talking about some interesting things to encourage everyone.

"Hot, if this trip is successful, what are you going to do, stay here? I'm going to retire." The captain asked with a smile.After a while, he liked this new young man very much.

"Ah, I'm going to take a look elsewhere."

Fang Yuhao said with a smile: "See the wider world, then buy a cargo ship of your own and start a small business."

"The young man wants to buy a boat!" Everyone laughed.Maybe, everyone here has such a dream.

Fang Yuhao couldn't help but feel a little strange that in this world where the soul is manipulated at will, dreams can still be accommodated.

The captain also smiled and said: "Hot... If you have two thousand, no, one thousand gold coins, my ship will belong to you! My sons are all mediocre. If I die, I will die soon." It will ruin my property. Why don't I let my old buddy and a reliable person."

"Captain, don't say that. I don't even have a gold coin in my pocket. I will never make a thousand gold coins in my life!"

Everyone laughed again.

"That's not necessarily the case. If you find an uninhabited island with antiques from the last century, the wealthy noble professors in those universities will definitely charge sky-high prices!"

"You can also go to the bank for a loan. With a successful voyage, you can earn back these gold coins!"

Many people are telling the story of the First Age, when half the day was day and half night, what a time.However, the First Era was a long, long time ago.

It's strange that the world is not as messy as imagined.On the contrary, Fang Yuhao thought that the people on this boat were quite interesting.

……

Time passed day by day.

On the 48th day, Fang Yuhao got up as usual and went to the pastor to pray. He had one day off today.

As time went by, everyone's spirits became much worse, and there were more sailors who drank and gambled.There is great terror in the ocean, no matter how experienced sailors are, when they slowly move away from the land, they will have unstoppable panic.

Fang Yuhao walked below the deck, where several kerosene lamps were lit, and there was a vegetable field nearby.

In order to prevent sepsis, fresh vegetables can be said to be a necessity in sailing.

This vegetable patch is the sailors' favorite place to stay. Not only is it full of light, everyone can also claim a vegetable.

Growing vegetables can obviously relieve people's psychological pressure. Fang Yuhao claimed a plant named "Wolf Fruit".This thing tastes a bit like a tomato, and all wolf fruits grown from this plant are his private property.

Fang Yuhao got some distilled water from the boiler room, poured it on the "wolf fruit", then picked a fruit, and gave it to the old sailor Duncan who was in the same room as him.

"Today's weather may not be so good, I can't see the stars."

"Yeah...you can go back to sleep, it's too boring."

Duncan was fishing on the deck.This kind of invisible environment is only accompanied by a very small kerosene lamp.

The mirror reflects the kerosene lamp, looking around to avoid collision with oncoming ships.

"I guess you won't be able to catch any fish today..." Fang Yuhao joked, because he didn't see the fish that glowed like ghosts.

Today's waves are obviously much bigger, and the hull is bouncing.

Fang Yuhao looked up at the sky, his pupils dilated to the extreme in the darkness.All the stars are gone, which means the sky is full of dark clouds.

The reference object in the sky disappeared, and the "Giant Ocean" could only rely on experience to estimate its progress.

"Don't worry, this kind of situation will always happen..." Duncan didn't care.

……

This overcast cloud lasted for three days, and the waves became bigger and bigger and the turbulence became more and more severe.

But it never rained.

The storm has been coming for a long time and has not subsided, and the captain is in a bad mood.

The ship was loaded with too much cargo, and the waterline was too deep, so it could easily capsize.He was reluctant to throw the goods into the sea.

"...Otherwise, if you don't say it for nothing, you will still lose money!"

"Yeah, it's a strange situation. I don't feel very well. The magnetic needles are all messed up."

In the captain's room, the captain, the first mate, and several senior officials were discussing countermeasures.

A wizard took a human soul and tied it with hair to a piece of flesh.He danced and chanted a spell, and the crystal ball glowed dimly.

"Duncan, throw this thing into the sea!"

The old sailor Duncan hurried, and threw the piece of meat overboard with a splash.

The crystal ball showed a black and white image, fed back by the human soul, seemingly from another dimension.

The captain's pupils dilated slightly, and the strange smile inherent in the great wizard's face disappeared.This image gave everyone present goosebumps.

one...

A huge eye!

It's odd looking, more than ten times the diameter of a steamship!
It stared at the ship without moving!

The Giant Ocean, as if being grasped by an invisible hand, kept circling in circles.In other words, in the past few days, the ship has not moved forward at all!

　That's all for today's update.
