Chapter 817 (1/2)
In the dark sea, a ship, like a dead leaf, floats alone on the sea. The big waves turned over and came one after another. The boat swayed with the waves. Compared with the vast east China Sea, it was so small.
”Master, you happen to be caught in a big storm today. Please get in the boat and avoid being wet by the waves.” The servant came to advise.
Wang Chuan sighed helplessly. Today, he only carried a servant who was good at serving people. He rented a boat and a boatman. He was going to go to the next port to discuss cooperation with another businessman. Unfortunately, when the waves were heavy in Shanghai, it was uncertain whether he could arrive before sunset.
The ship was shaking badly, and his stomach was tumbling, and a nausea came to his throat. So he planned to blow on the armor to dispel the nausea. He waved to Fugui that he didn't want to return to the boat for the time being, so Fugui stood by and waited for orders at any time. This time, the master only took him out for a reason. He had no special skills, only a pair of eyes and a clever tongue. When he thought of this, he could not help feeling proud.
The ship was slowly moving forward. Suddenly, the sky became gloomy, the wind was strong, the waves became bigger, and the waves were rolling, which made the sea foam. The boatman's face suddenly changed. He had been out of the boat for many years, and he knew the temper of this sea area best. Today, he watched the sky and vaguely thought that it would change. He didn't want to go out to sea, but Wang Chuan didn't mean to spend money. He was so excited that he bit his teeth and agreed.
”Gentlemen, go back to the boat. There's a wave!” Cried the boatman anxiously.
Fugui quickly helped Wang Chuan back to the boat to escape. Wang Chuan's face was not very good-looking. He just knew a little bit about water and was not proficient in it. Today was really bad luck. As soon as he went out to sea, he encountered this terrible weather. The terrible waves just now made him nervous. When he was worried, he suddenly felt that the ship was shaking violently. Wang Chuan looked out of the window, but saw a huge wave coming towards them.
The wave is as high as the city wall, sweeping most of the sea, the ship in front of it is a mole ant, no fight back. If the waves are taken, the ship will be crushed.
”Old... Old... Bad!” Wealth was paralyzed with fright, and his voice trembled out of tune.
Wang Chuan's hands and feet were cold and sweaty. He couldn't speak any more, so he could only stare at the approaching waves.
The big wave soon swept in front of them, carrying the damp sea water, beating down in their terrified expression, mercilessly. Wang Chuan only felt the salty and cold sea water pouring into his mouth and nose from all directions. He felt that his body was sinking rapidly, his consciousness was becoming more and more blurred, and his eyelids were becoming more and more heavy. He thought, maybe, his life will end here today.
Just when Wang Chuan felt that he was dead, he suddenly felt that his falling body was firmly caught by something. The touch of that thing was very hard. Did he sink to the deepest part of the sea? His body was lifted up gradually until he came back to the sea. He took a breath of the long lost air and coughed violently when the air flowed into his nose. After a while, when he recovered, he had a chance to see what he was lying on.
When he looked down at the bottom of his feet, he saw a huge green turtle shell, which was about the size of a round table surrounded by eighteen people. The unconscious servant Fugui was lying far away from him, but the boatman was missing. It seemed that the boatman was in danger. Turtle shell is carrying their master and servant, and they slowly swim to the shore.
Fugui suddenly woke up and saw that he was being carried by a big turtle in the upper reaches of the sea. He was scared out of his wits: ”monster
Wang Chuan frowned: ”stop shouting, it saved us.”
The big turtle carried them back to the shore, and then turned into an elegant middle-aged man, and said, ”I'm a thousand year old turtle resident in the East China Sea. Today you and I are destined to save your lives.”
Wang Chuan quickly took Fugui to his knees, kowtowed and said gratefully, ”thank you for saving my life! There is no reward for Wang
The turtle lifted them up, looked at them with a smile, stroked his beard and said, ”I just have something to ask for. If you help me, it's a reward. How about that?”
”What's the matter with Da Xian? Just speak up and Wang will do his best. ” Wang Chuan asked.
”Well, I'll be a thousand years old in a few days. I feel that there will be a disaster if I hit. So I want to take advantage of Master Wang's residence to let me spend the dormancy period with you. It can be as short as one month or as long as several months. Master Wang just needs to provide me with a pool. The turtles are most vulnerable during the dormancy period. I hope master Wang can ensure that no one will disturb me during that period. Is it convenient? ” The turtle asked, squinting and smiling gently.
