Chapter 354 The Storm
Wang Yuan continued: "Based on the route we have taken before, we will turn the rudder to the south for 45 degrees in a while, and then turn the rudder at 12 o'clock at noon, and then turn the rudder to the west and north at 30 degrees. Pass the reef area, and then sail towards Zhengzheng, and you will be able to reach the next island at dawn."
Dahei said: "Your analysis is correct, I hope there will be no accidents in the middle, I have a psychological shadow. Hahaha."
"Hehe, yes, we have encountered too many accidents."
After a while, the girls prepared meals and brought them in. There was a pot of crab porridge with a pot of stir-fried shredded potatoes. Everyone ate deliciously and sweetly.
After breakfast and all the girls cleaned up, Wang Yuan said, "It's time for Dahei to turn the rudder."
"OK." Dahei immediately adjusted his direction.
Su Wenjuan asked: "Master, the rain is getting heavier and heavier, and I can't tell the direction. Will there be any problems?"
"It's okay, just look at the compass."
Then, Wang Yuan explained the route for the next step.
Su Wenjuan asked curiously: "Master, have you really lived on the next island for a long time?"
Li Lili said with a face full of memories: "Yes, for a whole week, I also had dysentery, and thought I would not be able to survive, so your master and the others showed up."
"Yeah, master is your real son."
Li Lili blushed immediately. She was the queen of the entertainment circle, the goddess of the nation, and couldn't even take down a man. It was a failure, and there was a trace of sadness in her beautiful eyes.
Wang Yuan said: "What are you talking about? Do your push-ups now."
"Oh."
"Dahei, I leave this place to you, I'll go to rest for a while."
"Okay, don't worry."
After lunch at noon, Dahei adjusted his course and sailed west and north. At this time, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and it didn't mean to stop at all.
Wang Yuan rested until two o'clock when he felt the fishing boat became bumpy and couldn't sleep anymore. When he came to the cab, everyone was there, and he probably came here because he couldn't sleep because of the bumps.
Dahei was at the helm, saw Wang Yuan coming in, and said: "Wang, the wind and waves are getting stronger and stronger at the moment, don't there often be storms in this area?"
"Well, it's possible. Didn't the ship that Lili was on also crashed in a typhoon in this area?"
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning pierced the sky, followed by deafening thunder.
"I'm going, why is there a thunderstorm again!" Wang Yuan complained.
Dahei said: "Wang, you see that the waves have no rules at all. Sometimes they come from the front, sometimes from the back, sometimes on the left and sometimes on the right. Could it be that they were brought to the rocky area by wind and waves? After all, we only I can tell the direction by the compass, but I can't locate it."
"Well, it's very possible. Dahei, take a break and let me take the helm. Everyone, check the surrounding sea conditions and let me know if you have any questions."
"it is good."
Everyone tensed up and took out their binoculars to look around.
After driving for a while, suddenly, Su Wenjuan pointed to the front right and said: "Master, look quickly, there is a pillar standing on the sea over there!"
Everyone turned their heads to look, and sure enough, there was a pillar on the sea in the distance in front of the right, about two meters high, and they couldn't tell what it was.
As the distance got closer, Wang Yuan said: "That's the mast on the ship, there should be a sunken ship below."
Li Lili asked: "Captain, could it be the ship I'm on?"
"The waves are so big that we can't see clearly, but one thing is certain is that we were really pushed to the reef area by the waves. We can only adjust the direction and drive out of this area. There are dense reefs here. For safety, everyone Put on your lifejacket and pack at the ready."
"clear."
Wang Yuan quickly turned the rudder to adjust the direction, lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, stared at the sea ahead, slowed down, and minimized the damage even if he hit a rock.
The waves hit layer by layer. Although they were not the kind of overwhelming waves, they were very dense. Everyone focused their attention on the situation on the sea surface. Biqu library
Perhaps the draft of the fishing boat is relatively shallow, or it may be on the outskirts of the reef area. At this time, it has escaped and has not encountered any danger for nearly an hour.
It was still stormy outside, with thunder and lightning, everyone was not as nervous as before, Wang Yuan smoked another cigarette.
The fishing boat rushed towards the waves, swaying in the wind and waves, at the top of the waves for a while, and at the bottom for a while. The lightning in the sky danced like a silver snake. From a distance, it seemed that it could strike the boat at any time.
After another two hours, the wind and waves finally subsided, but the heavy rain was still torrential, the fishing boat stabilized, and Xiao Wang became active, rubbing the corners of everyone's trousers from time to time.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Wang Yuan turned on the navigation lights
, The cigarette in his mouth has not been lit, and the filter tip has been bitten into a twist.
Spit out the cigarette, light another one, relax the tense nerves, and adjust the direction of the fishing boat to the north. I don't know how far it has deviated. As long as the direction is correct and the timing is right, you should be able to find the island.
Dahei said: "Wang, take a rest and let me come."
Wang Yuan looked at the time in his hand and it was almost seven o'clock: "Okay, since we changed the route and speed just now, inferred from the time, we will not turn west until midnight."
"ok."
"Lili, let's eat something by the hour, I'm hungry."
"Okay, let's make something hot."
The thunder gradually disappeared. After eating, the rain became much lighter. Everyone took off their life jackets and put away their backpacks.
Wang Yuan said: "Let's take a break, everyone. I will leave this place to you and Awei. We will still change shifts as before. If you work hard all night, we will probably arrive at Xiazuo Island tomorrow morning."
"no problem."
"But, captain, aren't you tired?" Li Lili felt distressed.
"Don't worry, I'll take a rest here when I'm sleepy. Anyway, everyone can drive proficiently, and the next journey is not dangerous."
"OK then."
At twelve o'clock, Wang Yuan taught Awei to turn the rudder and adjust the direction, and then asked her to go back to rest, and asked Su Wenjuan to come over to change shifts.
After Su Wenjuan came in, she asked, "Master, are you hungry? I brought you canned food and beer, and you can take a rest after eating."
"Hehe, the little girl has learned to flatter."
Su Wenjuan pouted, and muttered, "Master, I've already said it, I'm already an adult."
"Okay, you are a big girl now. Come on, look at the direction and sail straight ahead."
"understood."
Wang Yuan took the food and sat aside to eat and drink.
The rain gradually stopped, the dark clouds dispersed, and the moon appeared.
After eating, Wang Yuan saw that there was nothing wrong, so he said, "Wenjuan, I'll take a break and call me when you change shifts."
"Okay! Don't worry, Master."
Wang Yuan spread the quilt in the corner and lay down.
It was finally dawn, and everyone got up. After breakfast, they stayed in the cab, knowing that they were about to reach the island, and they could rest for another day.
Dahei drove the fishing boat, and the time passed by, and it was almost nine o'clock, and there was no sign of the island.
