Chapter 17

Chenghai Fishing Village is located in a remote location and has poor transportation. Although the application to the higher authorities for the 5a scenic spot was successful, it did not attract many tourists and the local economy remained stagnant.

For the fishermen in the fishing village who have been fishing for generations, whether Chenghai Fishing Village becomes a 5A scenic spot has nothing to do with them.What they care about is how many fish they catch today and whether they can make a living for a day.

The fishermen in the fishing village found that since the Chenghai fishing village became a 5A scenic spot, their life has become even more difficult.The government made many restrictions on where they fished. First, the fishermen were concentrated in a certain bay to fish. Later, seeing that the fishermen were honest and honest, there were not many complaints and objections. They simply issued a document to implement scenic spot control. Licensed commercial fleets are concentrated in fishing, and private fishing is illegal.

As a result, most of the fishermen in the fishing village are unemployed and stay at home, and many fishermen have to go out to seek re-employment.However, some fishermen have clever minds, and they found a job as a handyman on a fishing boat through gifts from their connections, and the fleet paid their wages on a monthly basis.But commercial fishing boats are not only fishing, they also go to other seaports to pull goods in the off-season, so some fishermen stay on board for half a year.

Lu Quanguo is lucky that he has not lost his job under the centralized control of the offshore fishing industry.It can be said that he was lucky to be a third officer and work in the fishing fleet.City TV host and reporter Qi Yan came to Chenghai Fishing Village to collect and edit. In order to facilitate his work, he rented a small single room in Lu Guoguo's house.This single room was originally Lu Qisheng's room, and now it is temporarily rented to Qi Yan.

Qi Yan is a warm-hearted person. When he saw his landlord was in trouble, he helped him.Qi Yan is the pillar of the city's TV station, and he can be regarded as the No. [-] figure. The leaders of the scenic spot and the radio reporters are old acquaintances. Finding an errand for Lu Quanguo in the scenic spot is just a one-sentence matter.

On this day, Lu Quanguo went out to sea with the fleet for the first time.Before going out to sea, he spent a dollar at the canteen to call his son Lu Qisheng, and the other end quickly connected: "Hello, Asheng? I'm your father, Lu Quanguo."

The other side of the phone asked: "Dad, have you received the 3000 yuan I sent? You can't fish now. If you are short of money at home, tell me that I have a job now."

"Oh, I'll refund it to you." Lu Quanguo touched his smooth forehead and showed a simple and honest smile, "You take care of yourself, your mother and I don't want your money. I'm calling to tell you, I have a job now, there is a reporter from a TV station, he is a good guy, I heard that he is also from your city, and he helped me find a job on the ship."

After graduation, Lu Qisheng sent money to his family several times, but his father Lu Quanguo returned them all. This time was no exception. It's the same when giving money.

"TV reporter? What's his name? I must thank him if I have the chance."

Lu Quanguo touched his scorched and sparse beard, thought for a while, "It seems to be called Qi, Qi Yan is right, it is the name of a cultural person." He sighed again, "There are still many good people these days. .”

"Ah Sheng, how are you doing over there? You are surrounded by good people, right? Don't be with bad people. It's not good to be bad."

"Dad, don't worry, I'm very good here, and my friends are also very good to me."

"Actually, it's okay for Dad to call you. The main reason is that I miss you. By the way, I'm going to go to sea with the fleet in a while, and I won't be back until a few days ago. That's why I can't call you for a long time."

Lu Quanguo has never read a book, and he doesn't even know how to use the most basic mobile phones for the elderly. Lu Qisheng taught him several times when he was at home, but even if he couldn't remember the power button, he had to give up.

Lu Quanguo said some trivial things to ask Lu Qisheng to take good care of his body, and Lu Qisheng agreed one by one, and then Lu Quanguo hung up the phone in peace.

This time the fishing team dispatched a total of five fishing boats, with the purpose of going deep into the open sea for fishing operations.

When going out to sea, the wind is sunny, the sky is clear, the sea is calm, and seabirds spread their wings freely on the sea.

When the fishing boat sailed to the seventh day at sea, the captain insisted on continuing to sail forward.In fact, on the seventh day, the weather at sea was not very good. Many crew members suggested that the end of the voyage would be on the seventh day, but the proposal was rejected by the captain.After all, the captains all have rich experience in going to sea, and the operation of the ships depends entirely on the support of science and technology.After all, these fishing boats themselves carry a large number of sophisticated instruments, and are also equipped with the most scientific weather detectors.Although the weather looks unpleasant, all the forecasting instruments installed on the ship are normal. The fleet has been able to sail safely at sea for so many years, thanks to these sophisticated high-tech instruments, and has never missed anything.

Lu Guoguo is new here, and he only does some chores, turning a deaf ear to the conflicts between sailors, crew and captains.As long as the ship can operate normally, he can get his salary on a monthly basis.He doesn't care if the sky falls.

On the evening of the eighth day, after finishing chores, Lu Quanguo was lying on the deck to rest, and found that there were abnormal clouds where the sea and the sky met. He had seen this kind of cloud before when he went to sea, and the local fishermen called it "ominous." cloud".From a distance, it looks like a low temple, and the sun refracts in, showing green and purple intertwined light, which is both magnificent and weird.

Local fishermen regard the location where they saw the "unknown cloud" as the end point of their voyage.Seeing "unknown clouds" means that this trip to sea will stop here, and you can either return along the original road or wait until the sea storm is destroyed.There is a fable circulating in the sea. Behind the "unknown cloud" is the place where Shura lives in the sea. If someone trespasses on Shura's residence, he will be retaliated by Shura. After death, his soul will be imprisoned in the "unknown cloud". .In other words, the "unknown cloud" is the eerie aura composed of the dead souls of the dead at sea.

Seeing that the fleet will continue to move forward, and the direction of travel happens to be the sea area shrouded in "unknown clouds".Lu Quanguo couldn't sit still anymore. Apart from Lu Quanguo, there were several other fishermen from Chenghai Fishing Village who came to work on the fleet.Lu Quanguo was about to discuss with the captain, but the fishermen were already telling the captain that "unknown clouds" were a matter.

I just heard the captain say: "You are uneducated, you have to believe in science. The 'unknown cloud' is actually the so-called eye of the storm. Our ship is equipped with the most advanced precision instruments, which can accurately avoid sea storms within hundreds of nautical miles. As you said, the instrument has already given hints. What to do, don’t be superstitious all day long, people in small places are superstitious. Influence the hearts of the people on board, go for a walk!”

Several fellow villagers in Lu Quanguo were honest fishermen, and they couldn't make any sense, so they had to disperse after hearing the captain's words, and went to their own things.

Hearing the captain's resolute attitude, Lu Quanguo, who was hiding behind the mast, did not dare to go up and continue to persuade the captain, fearing that something bad would happen and he would lose his job.But on the other hand, he was worried about his own wealth and life.He is forty-nine this year, and his son Lu Qisheng has not yet married, so he doesn't want to put his life in the sea.

So Lu Quanguo secretly gathered several fellow villagers to discuss, and found that these fellow villagers were also very panicked.They have all gone fishing with their parents since they were young, and they have developed the ability to ride the wind and waves.And the "unknown cloud" on the sea is an existence that even their parents don't know or fear.They have heard all kinds of bizarre rumors about the "unknown cloud" since they were young, and they firmly believe in it.

A slightly old white-headed fisherman said: "I just said that we should worship the God of the Sea before setting off the boat. We also know how to worship the God of the Sea when we go out to sea in our own small boat, let alone such a big five boats. The Lord Sea God can't blame you. .These dumb-headed captains insist on believing in science, not evil. The rules established by our ancestors for thousands of years can't be broken as soon as they are said."

Another short fisherman also began to complain: "Yes, yes, it means that if you don't listen to the old man's words, you will suffer in front of your eyes. It's a bad start. How can you go back now? Let's just die in the eye of the storm, choke." A few sips of water, a stretch of the legs, and it passed."

The captain said they were superstitious, but they were not convinced from the bottom of their hearts.The sailing experience accumulated by their ancestors for generations can't be compared with a few broken metal and broken light bulbs.Resentment belongs to resentment, but no one can vent their anger on the captain, after all, the salary has to be paid by the captain.Originally, several people together planned to resign themselves to their fate, but when Lu Guoguo came, he gave them five advices and found helpers for himself.

They pulled out the lifeboats and life jackets and buoys in the warehouse in advance and hid them, and connected the six lifeboats together. If the weather at sea changed, they immediately threw the lifeboats and escaped, and then all rowed in one direction.Although this method is very primitive, it is the only way they can think of.All things are forewarned, and only by making preparations in advance can we ensure that we will not panic when things happen.

The eye of the sea storm is covered under the "unfamiliar cloud". The eye of the storm can swallow all the things on the sea, and then roll them all up to the sky, so that the living will become dead.

The fleet was about to sail to the eye of the storm in an hour. Lu Quanguo glanced anxiously at the moon in the sky. It was very round and large, and it was very close to the ship. The ship sailed on the endless sea as if it was on the horizon.Only then did Lu Quanguo realize that today is the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month, no wonder the moon is so round.

However, the sea level was terrifyingly calm, and even the fish on the bottom of the sea did not dare to jump out to disturb the peace. Apart from the sound of the humid sea wind blowing by, and the humming sound of the giant engine inside the merchant ship, nothing could be heard.

All of this is a bad omen for everyone on board.If someone looked at his watch, he would know that it was ten o'clock in the evening, and there were four or ten minutes before reaching the eye of the storm.All the crew members became restless, saying that this was the calm before the storm, and even the captain began to waver.

Although the detection instruments on the ship still did not respond for a long time, the captain standing at the bow suddenly had an ominous premonition.The chief mate was the first to see the white glove raised on the captain's hand, and immediately got the order to turn the bow of the ship and change the course.

At this time, there are still 10 minutes before reaching the eye of the storm.

Just 35 minutes ago, Lu Quanguo and his party took advantage of the darkness to secretly drive the lifeboat towards the road they came from.

Just as everyone on board breathed a sigh of relief, what the local fishermen called an "unknown cloud" hanging over the night showed a more strange and hideous green light under the moonlight.It seemed to sense that the huge monster driving on the sea was turning around and drifting away from itself. With the help of the suddenly strong sea wind, it seemed to have grown wings, and flew to the top of the five merchant ships at an extremely fast speed.

With the arrival of the "unknown cloud", there is also the eye of the storm on the sea.

Only then did the captain believe that the fables and legends told by the fishermen were true.When the ship was swept by the wind and waves to the top of the "unknown cloud", the people on board seemed to see the sea Shura living behind the "unknown cloud".When they landed, these uninvited guests who broke into Shura's residence on the sea without authorization were really revenged by Shura, and their souls were all imprisoned in the "unknown cloud".
