Chapter 121： storm

The middle-aged man who was lifting the chair looked bleak, and he lay down weakly and said, "I...wrecked my stomach..."

Shi Helin moved forward: "I am a doctor..."

Shopkeeper Zhou stopped Shi Helin and said to Hong Laoduo anxiously: "Then why don't you tell me!"

Hong Laoduo looked up and saw that the ship was far away, so he scolded anxiously: "That wicked species! That bastard! He wants to **** me off!"

Shopkeeper Zhou asked eagerly: "What's going on!"

Hong Laoduo asked people to put down their chairs, but he couldn't stand up. He panted and said, "I started having diarrhea last night, so I can't tell you to go to the sea. The **** said he was going out, saying what is a short distance is nothing. I am. Saying that he has never gone out alone, he quarreled with me and blamed me for holding the rudder and not letting him do it alone. This wicked obstacle! I told him that although it is a short distance, the north and south winds intersect this season, and there may be something weird. I can’t rest assured that he will go on his own. I don’t know how to look at the astronomical phenomenon and suffer a big loss! I had a thunderstorm when I was young and almost never came back. His **** just didn’t believe me, saying that I scared him. At last, he had a fight all night. Just listen to me. I fell asleep, but then I woke up and heard that he took his group of brothers to the pier. I knew it was wrong, that bastard! This is going to **** me off!"

Shi Helin was terrified: "Really... something is going to happen... that's really terrible!" On this boat are the daughter of Zhenbeihou, relatives of Pingyuanhou, and a prince who has fallen out of favor!

Shopkeeper Zhou stomped: "You should have someone send me a letter!"

Hong Laoduo also apologized: "Treasurer Zhou, sorry. I was so uncomfortable that I had to quarrel with him, so I forgot about it." Everyone shouted "Come back" to the ship that was already far away. "come back"! Naturally, the people on the big ship couldn't hear it at all, and the treasurer Zhou also knew that, in fact, they heard it, and that **** Hong Er won't be back.

Seeing the worried look of shopkeeper Zhou, Hong Laoduo could only comfort him: "Now I can only think about a good place. This route is indeed safe, and it will go down the river smoothly. If it is fast, it will definitely arrive in four days and five days. Normally It’s okay. The **** has followed me since he was five or six years old, and he has been for fifteen or six years. He is not stupid, he should be competent."

Shi Helin asked worriedly: "Then what if there is a thunderstorm you said?"

Hong Laoduo said: "I met it wherever I could, and I don't encounter it every year. If you can see the sky, you can avoid it."

Shopkeeper Zhou asked: "Will Hong Er see it?"

Hong Laoduo patted the handle of the chair: "The **** said he would watch it, but I asked him a few times and he was wrong..."

The shopkeeper Zhou asked urgently: "What should I do if I meet you!"

Hong Laoduo looked at the sky: "Then I have to ask the Bodhisattva for blessing."

Shopkeeper Zhou was so angry that he pointed to Hong Laoduo and said, "You...you..."

Hong Laoduo said angrily and complained to the shopkeeper Zhou: "If something happens, that's my son too! That bastard! He is killing me! How can I tell his mother!..." He blinked his eyes. cry.

Shi Helin hurriedly asked: "What temple do you have here?"

Shopkeeper Zhou nodded and said, "There is a temple of earth outside the city."

Shi Helin is now the leader, and said to shopkeeper Zhou: "Go, let's burn incense, and then you will give some porridge, I will open a free clinic, hurry up and pray for them!"

Shopkeeper Zhou sighed, "Let's go."

Hong Laoduo also turned around and said to people: "Go and tell the family, I will follow them to burn incense, let the backyard quickly cook porridge, go out of the city to give alms, and give the **** a little blessing."

Everyone happily came to see off at the pier, but when they left, everyone was panicked and worried.

-----------------------------

The few people on the ship didn’t know their worries. They stood on the ship’s board, watching the land go away, turning into a line, and finally that line disappeared. There was a blue ocean between the sky and the earth, boundless. Only the clouds in the sky are dotted with huge openness, which makes people feel particularly open.

The sailors on the boat shouted loudly, and Zhang Yunzheng started to look at them when he was tired of watching the sea. He knew that Shen Wen would go to the island in the future, thinking that he should know something about sailing. He walked a few laps along the boat, looked at the sails repeatedly, figured out the truth, and sometimes asked the sailors who met on the road the names of certain mast cables.

After noon, everyone didn't want to stay in the dark cabin below, so they simply put a cushion on the board, surrounded the quilt and sat on the board to watch the sea. The sailors knew that these people had never seen the sea before, and it was not easy to come out and lie down like this.

People naturally eat sea food when they are at sea. As soon as they went out to sea, the sailors put small fishing nets and dragged them up when it was time to eat. There were fish inside. The cooking guy picked out a dozen of them, and threw the rest back into the sea. He was picking up the fish on the deck, and Zhang Yunzheng squatted beside him, watching with interest as he quickly descaled and deboned the fish, and then quickly sliced ​​it into fillets. Shen Wen and Su Wanniang didn't even dare to look at them. The four princes looked from a distance, and saw the knife dazzling, which made people dazzling.

Because it is fresh fish, it is delicious when it comes to the porridge. Under the clear sky, everyone drank the freshest fish porridge that they had ever drunk. They all talked loudly, feeling that life is beautiful.

The sun slanted westward and slowly fell into the sea. At sunset, the sun shines like a horse, and the water and the sky reflect extremely brilliant light. These travelers leaned on the railing and looked around. Almost everyone half opened their mouths and watched the sun set without blinking, until the last ray of blood sank into the water.

After a while, the fourth prince sighed deeply and said in a low voice: "It's really the most beautiful scene on earth."

Zhang Yunzheng said to Shen Wen: "Look, we are lucky that we have come to take the boat, otherwise we won't be able to see it." In front of everyone, Shen Wen was embarrassed to say something, and could only hum.

Hong Er, who walked behind them, said: "This is very ordinary, much more beautiful than this! In fact, what I like most is the night, the sky full of stars. Don’t sleep too early tonight. If the clouds are not heavy, You can see it."

When they listened, they cared about the beautiful scenery at night, and forgot to ask Hong Er why he didn't see his father come out to take the helm.

At night, as Hong Er said, the sky full of unusually bright stars enveloped their wooden boat in an arch. If it were not for the sails swaying in the stars and making the creak of wood, people would mistakenly think that the ship would leave the sea at any time and sail towards the stars.

Under such a starry sky, everyone will feel relaxed and happy. The sea waves rise and fall gently. Everyone has been used to this kind of sloshing. A few people are not seasick, so they greet the magnificent and peaceful night before returning to the cabin until late at night.

They were extremely excited this day, and the bed was like a cradle, and everyone slept deeply. Don't talk about them, Hong Er is too sleepy to open his eyes. He fought with Hong Laoduo last night for being able to go out to sea alone, and finally decided to chop first and play later, so he sailed out with his usual subordinates close to him. I was a little nervous at the beginning, but the sea was calm and calm, especially after nightfall. Hong Er didn't dare to relax his vigilance, and spent the whole night in fear, but nothing happened.

Nothing happened this night. The next day everyone had a life like gods and gods. In the evening, they looked at the stars and saw it was near midnight before going to bed.

After this period of time, Hong Er's initial tension passed. He brought some young people, and these people did not have as much experience as him. Hong Er felt that he must be at the helm by himself at night, so he slept for most of the day during the day and only got up at night. He divided the sailors into two shifts day and night. Half of them were sleeping and half of those on duty. Only three or two were guarding the key positions of the sails on the deck. The others either chatted or sat in the dark and took a nap.

Hong Er held the rudder with one hand and put the other on the waist of the yellow dog, feeling the ship sailing on the relatively calm sea, feeling very relaxed.

Star Shift turned around, and in the latter half of the night, there was a strange sense of tranquility on the sea, and there was almost no wind. Hong Er felt wrong, but couldn't tell what was wrong. Looking at the compass carefully, the ship did not deviate from its course. He looked back and forth, and he didn't see anything unusual.

The yellow dog who had been asleep suddenly woke up and began to bark nonstop. Hong Er frowned and scolded: "You keep your voice down! Such a noise wakes everyone up!"

The yellow dog didn't care at all, shaking his head and barking, really awakened the sleeping sailor and passenger. Some sailor shouted: "If you bark, you will eat it!" "Mangy dog!"...

Hong Er shouted back: "Who are you scolding! Be careful I throw you into the sea!"

Zhang Yunzheng and the others were also awakened by the barking of the yellow dog. Zhang Yunzheng cursed in a low voice, but continued to close his eyes, preparing to go back to sleep.

Hong Er didn't pat the yellow dog angrily, "Don't bark, don't bark!"

The yellow dog straightened his neck, barked more violently at the back of the boat, and pulled Hong Er's sleeve to make him look back. Hong Er mumbled: "I just saw..." He turned his face back, and the first thing he saw was the star Dou in the sky. He couldn't help saying: "Nothing..." But then, his face suddenly became white: A tall black wall that could not be seen from both sides was quickly pressing on them silently from the sea. The black wall swallowed the starlight, and almost instantly, the sea breeze from nowhere blew.

Hong Er hissed and shouted: "Hurry up! Drop the main side sail! Shun Xiaofan! Hurry up!" He picked up the little yellow dog and threw it into the dog cage fixed on the deck, then turned his head back. While placing the ship as perpendicular as possible to the overwhelming storm, he hissed: "Wake up soon! Hurry up! It's too late..."

The people on the deck were originally lazy, no one looked back, but now they listened to Hong Er's yelling before looking up, and immediately panicked. He hurriedly untied the rope, pulled the rope, and shouted at the people below: "All Come up! Come out! The storm is coming!" Fortunately, the people below were woken up by the yellow dog and ran to the deck as soon as they heard the yelling. The little yellow dog in the dog cage was still barking desperately, but the barking suddenly seemed very weak, because the powerful waves came!

The black wall flew close to the boat, but the sailor had some preparations in the precious few minutes, at least put down the life-saving anchor.

Zhang Yunzheng who was sleeping in the cabin also heard Hong Er's yelling and the hurried footsteps of people on the cabin. Both Zhang Yunzheng and the fourth prince got up in a hurry. Fortunately, they were outside, sleeping in their clothes, and could go out immediately. The two fumbled out of the hatch, wanting to meet Shen Wen and Su Wanniang next door.

Shen Wen was awakened by the dog barking and felt uncomfortable in her chest. She immediately called Su Wanniang: "Sister Wanniang, I don't think it's right..." As soon as she finished speaking, Hong Er shouted outside.

The hull began to shake, and the two turned over and got out of bed. There was a knock on the hatch. Su Wanniang approached the door and opened it immediately. There was a dim light in the cabin, and Zhang Yunzheng and the fourth prince stood at the door of the cabin holding the bulkhead.

Zhang Yunzheng just said: "I heard that there is a storm..." The first big wave has hit the ship. With a bang, the hull was pushed up to the top of the wave from behind, and then thrown into the valley of the wave. The fourth prince was about to fall when he was unstable. Zhang Yunzheng and Su Wanniang reached out to pull him at the same time. Big waves hit one after another, the hull was almost upright, the passage was like a slide, and the four princes slipped and fell to the ground all at once. Su Wanniang who was holding him also threw out the door at the same time. Zhang Yunzheng has martial arts, the bottom plate is stable, busy holding the door frame with one hand, and holding the cuffs of the four princes in the other hand, but there is the weight of the four princes and Su Wanniang. He only heard the sound of "stabbing", a piece of The cloth was torn off, and the fourth prince and Su Wanniang slid into the darkness in Su Wanniang's screams.

All this happened so quickly, Shen Wen was still in the house, and the two people at the door had disappeared. In a flash, squally winds and waves had come, and the wooden boat began to turbulence violently. There was a thumping rolling sound in the cabin next to it, mixed with Magnolia's exclamation. Zhang Yunzheng shouted: "Don't come out!" He clutched the door frame tightly, and had to squat down amidst the violent turbulence. Shen Wen's light work could only barely keep it from rolling on the ground on such an unstable plane, one step at a time. He staggered towards Zhang Yunzheng.

Zhang Yunzheng said to Shen Wen: "Don't come here! Stay here! I'll find them!"

The sound of the storm's waves was terrifying, and Shen Wen shouted: "I'll go with you!"

Zhang Yunzheng shook his head, and just about to stand up, he squatted down on the ground with a big ups and downs in the hull. Shen Wen dangled, as if floating. She reached Zhang Yunzheng's side, and wanted to cross Zhang Yunzheng to go to the tunnel. Zhang Yunzheng freed her hands and grabbed Shen Wen's arm: "Go together!"

On the deck, Hong Er shouted in a dumb voice: "Take the rope..." But a big wave crashed down from the air and his hijab was dripping. He was soaked, and he was choked with a cough. But this aroused his fierceness, and he cursed: "My son's tortoise! ​​You tripped me the first time I did it alone! You want me to die!..."

The waves washed over the deck, and water flowed in from the gaps in the cabin buckle doors, making the cabin more slippery. At the end of the cabin is a corner, followed by a downward staircase leading to another cabin. The fourth prince knew that Su Wanniang had been taken down by herself, and shouted: "Let go of me!" Su Wanniang was pulling a piece of the clothes of the fourth prince so she didn't let go, so she could only follow the fourth prince all the way.

At the corner, the fourth prince grabbed the wall vigorously, and Su Wanniang hit him.

Su Wanniang exclaimed: "How are you doing!"

The fourth prince gasped in the pitch black with his fingers out of sight and said: "It's okay..." But before finishing talking, the boat almost stood up again, and the two rushed toward the unknown again. This time, the four princes simply hugged Su Wanniang tightly, letting herself act as a pulley, placing her at the bottom. In the darkness, he couldn't see the situation around him clearly, and only felt that his body was falling rapidly. Suddenly, he felt that there was a gap in his shoulders, and he pushed hard to push Su Wanniang out of his arms. In an instant, the deafening waves disappeared.

Su Wanniang rolled to the side and yelled: "Gongzi Jiang" while crying and groping in the dark, she finally touched a hatch on the ground. The hatch that was originally covered was opened due to the strong turbulence of the hull, and the hatch was wide open. Su Wanniang shouted at the following: "Young Master Jiang!" Only the sound of wind and waves. The ship board stood upright again, and Su Wanniang held the hatch tightly and did not slide open. When the hull was a little straighter, Su Wanniang supported herself with her hand and smoothed her body into the hatch, but until her arms were straight, her feet still did not touch the ground. Su Wanniang's heart became cold: at such a high level, the fourth prince fell down and probably died. She felt sore in her heart, she immediately burst into tears, and let her hands loose, letting herself fall into the dark bottom cabin.

Outside the hatch, Shen Wen and Zhang Yunzheng could only hold each other's hand with one hand, and the other hand to support the wall, stumbling back and forth into the darkness. Sometimes they walk a few steps forward, and when the boat leans back, they have to step back again. Sometimes just after standing firm, the boat suddenly fell, even if both of them had the time to make a move, they had to squat on the ground, so as not to fall to the ground and not know where they were going to roll.

After finally touching the corner, in the wind and waves, Shen Wen listened carefully and said loudly: "I heard sister Wanniang's cry, they are below."

Zhang Yunzheng has hated the feeling of being imprisoned since he was a child, but now he is trapped in the dark cabin. He very much hopes to be on the deck. Even being exposed to the storm is better than groping in this narrow tunnel. But he still said to Shen Wen: "Well, let's go down."

Shen Wen closed her eyes, and she could sense the surrounding objects even in the dark. She pulled Zhang Yunzheng in front, and the two of them knelt down and stood up and fumbled for a while during the violent turbulence of the ship. The water flow in the cabin is getting more and more rapid, and the top of the bulkhead leaks like light rain. It can be seen that the wind and waves outside are getting more and more fierce. Soon, they are swimming in the ankle-deep water. They walked all the way to the end of the tunnel, and Shen Wen said loudly: "It's here!" She found the bottom hatch on the tunnel.

Su Wanniang fell into the cold water all of a sudden. Fortunately, her feet were not far from the ground, and the water was not enough for her calves. She immediately fumbled in the water and shouted: "Young Master Jiang! Young Master Jiang!" In a moment, she touched the Fourth Prince, lying flat in the shallow water, stuck between the two keels. She was happy in her heart and tried her best to fight the four princes. The prince lifted up from the water, touched his face in the dark, and was horrified to find that the nose and mouth of the fourth prince were cold. Su Wanniang burst into tears, holding the face of the four princes in her hand and pasting her tearful face, crying: "Don't die! You wake up soon! You said you are immortal!"

The fourth prince fell into the bottom compartment and was fainted on the spot. The sea covered his face and did not wake up, or he did not want to wake up, because at that moment, the darkness in front of him suddenly disappeared without a trace, and suddenly appeared. After the glorious Jiuzhong City, the golden light is vast, and there is a crystal clear and sublime white jade stone wall in front of the pavilion, on which is carved a vivid dragon totem. He grew up in the imperial city since he was a child, not to mention that the palace's buildings are the most prosperous place in the world, the capital is also prosperous everywhere. But compared with this Qionglou Yuyu, it was as crude as dung. The four princes have a strong consciousness: that is his home! He came home!

He was in ecstasy, and his mother who had not seen each other for a long time came to meet him. Concubine Jiang Shu was much younger than he remembered, and she smiled and raised her hand to block him.

The fourth prince pleaded: "Mother concubine, I want to stay..."

In the silence, Concubine Jiang Shu said: If you are yourself, you can't get it. If you are unselfish, you can return...

Just as he saw those visions just as quickly, the fourth prince woke up suddenly and felt the tears of Su Wanniang on his cheeks. In a trance, he also shed tears-he really did not want to leave the house, and suddenly fell back from the clouds. In the dark bottom, his heart was extremely lost and extremely sad. But Su Wanniang was crying for him, and he couldn't bear her. The four princes raised their hands and hugged Su Wanniang's waist with difficulty. Su Wanniang's heart became loose and she burst into tears even more loudly, almost crying and fainting herself.

Seeing Su Wanniang crying miserably, the fourth prince persuaded: "Don't cry, it's okay if I die. You shouldn't follow it."

Su Wanniang cried and said, "What are you talking about! How can you die, what should I do?"

The fourth prince smiled bitterly in the darkness, and sighed with Su Wanniang's waist, "So I'm not dead..." He actually wanted to stay in such a beautiful place. But he still has selfish intentions, he wanted to be with Su Wanniang, so he came back. Fortunately, he has relieved the heavy burden of fear of death, and can live calmly and easily from then on.

Su Wanniang didn't know what the four princes meant, sobbing and saying, "Remember, you have to take me with you when you want to go. We want to be together."

The fourth prince nodded on top of Su Wanniang's head: "Okay, always together."

The two people hugged each other, Su Wanniang slowly stopped crying, and the fourth prince said: "We have to find a way to get out, the water here is getting deeper and deeper."

Su Wanniang also noticed that while they were sitting here crying, the water had risen to the waist where they were sitting. She looked up and looked around. There was some reflection of water in the darkness. There was a rushing sound from the hatch where they fell. Su Wanniang said loudly, "Miss will come to us. We are under this hatch now. and many more."

The fourth prince asked: "She will come"

Su Wanniang replied: "Of course!"

The two of them were already drenched, and now that the fourth prince was not dead, Su Wanniang let him go, but she shivered after leaving a warm body. Although the fourth prince could not see Su Wanniang, he felt her cold. He reached out and hugged Su Wanniang into his arms again, and said, "Your...just after the moon, don't sit in the water. Let's stand up and I will carry you on my back. Right."

Su Wanniang shook her head and said, "This boat is unstable. We didn't roll around when we were sitting in the dragon frame. If you stand up, you will fall. I'm fine...that...has passed...you let go..." The four princes were not pushed away: in this damp and cold bottom cabin, hug each other and feel safer.

Unfortunately, although both of them wanted to hug a little longer, Shen Wen's voice came from the hatch: "Sister Wanniang, Young Master Jiang, are you all there?"

Su Wanniang raised her head and shouted: "Yes! We are all fine and not injured."

Shen Wen said: "Well, I see you."

The four princes widened their eyes and could not see anything, and whispered to Su Wanniang: "How can she see?"

Shen Wen said with sharp ears, "Of course! You are still holding her!"

Su Wanniang screamed and pushed the four princes away. Shen Wen said: "You wait, I will find the rope."

Zhang Yunzheng said: "Let me go. When I came here just now, I touched the rope hanging on the wall over there. I know where it is, not far away, I hope it hasn't been washed away yet."

Shen Wen shook his head: "I want to go together." He and Zhang Yunzheng held hands again to get the rope.

In the bottom cabin, the fourth prince whispered: "They are gone, hold on for a while."

Su Wanniang smiled and whispered: "They will be back soon."

The fourth prince said in disbelief: "She must have not seen it, blindly."

Su Wanniang smiled and said, "She must have seen it. Our young lady is amazing." She had just experienced a fright with the fourth prince, and she felt that she trusted him very much.

Shen Wen and Zhang Yunzheng fumbled back in the tunnel like a roller coaster. Zhang Yunzheng touched the rope fixed on the bulkhead, but fortunately, they did not fall from the wall. He took off a circle of rope, and returned to the bottom hatch with Shen Wen, and ran the rope down. Shen Wen jumped down lightly, grabbed Su Wanniang's hand first, and pulled her up. Su Wanniang naturally took the fourth prince. .

After the boat was on and off for a while, Shen Wen himself was unstable, swaying back and forth in the water, and finally helped Su Wanniang under the rope and let Su Wanniang hold the rope. Zhang Yunzheng lay horizontally on the deck, fixed his body with his shoulders and feet, and then pulled the person up with force. In this way, the people in the bottom cabin climbed up one by one. After Shen Wen came up, he closed the overturned bottom compartment door.

The four people were exhausted, and all sat at the end of the dark tunnel slowly, and their bodies hit the bulkhead violently with the hull.

After a long time, in the sound of the waves, Zhang Yunzheng said loudly: "We should still go up. If the boat capsizes, we can get out."

Shen Wen shook his head: "Such a big storm, just go out, so what can you do!"

Zhang Yunzheng shouted: "What is this! We must persist to the end! You can't just give up like this!"

Shen Wen had to agree. This time, everyone clenched the rope tightly, and Shen Wen led the way, pulling Su Wanniang, followed by the four princes, after Zhang Yunzheng broke. A group of people stumbled up the deck, which was tilted and trembling for a while, until they reached under the upper deck, and took a seat beside the stairs with a handrail.

The wind and waves outside hit the ship like mountains and seas, and the ship's board tilted back and forth, and a few people pulled the handrails so that they were not thrown away. In the sound of the waves, I could vaguely hear Hong Er's barking and the sporadic shouts of other sailors, "...put down the sail..." "...stuck..." Sometimes a weak dog barked.

Zhang Yunzheng pointed to the deck and yelled, "I'll take a look!"

Shen Wen nodded and said, "Let's go together!"

Zhang Yunzheng did not want to leave Shen Wen behind after his previous experience. If the boat sinks, it would be better for two people to die together than to die separately, so they nodded and shouted: "Something is really going on, you have to wait for me!"

Shen Wen nodded.

Zhang Yunzheng shouted again: "Do you know what I mean?"

Shen Wen nodded vigorously again: "Of course I understand, I have to wait for you."

She knew that Zhang Yunzheng was going to be together when she said that. She was surprised to find that she was not worried, perhaps because she had already discussed the plan with her two elder brothers and Ji Wenzhao at the border. If she left, they should be able to support her. When I came back this time, I really did my best without completing everything. If it doesn't work, she can come back again, this time Zhang Yunzheng will be with her...

Zhang Yunzheng seemed to know what Shen Wen was thinking, and said loudly, "It won't take a thousand years! I'm not that stupid!"

Amid the turbulence of the waves, Shen Wen laughed pouting. Zhang Yunzheng pushed open the hatch, and a torrent of sea water poured in. Zhang Yunzheng and Shen Wen crawled out of the hatch under the rainstorm outside. Shen Wen covered the hatch, and the large skylight disappeared, and the cabin was again It became pitch black.

Su Wanniang watched in a panic that Shen Wen went out with Zhang Yunzheng, and the four princes were left beside her. She shrank in her heart and couldn't help crying again. The fourth prince still recalled the scene of the bilge in his mind, and was not panicked. In the darkness, he took Su Wanniang's hand and sat beside Su Wanniang, and the two of them shook back and forth with the ups and downs of the ship. Su Wanniang stopped crying.

Zhang Yunzheng and Shen Wen arrived on the deck. In the night, under the huge waves, the wooden boat floated up and down like pieces of sawdust, without any autonomous power. Hong Er pointed to the sky at the rudder wheel and shouted hoarsely: "Let down the sail!...Let down the sail..." Someone cried: "I can't let it down..."

Zhang Yunzheng looked up and found that one side sail had not fallen. The ship was too turbulent, and a sailor was lying motionless on the horizontal mast.

Zhang Yunzheng and Shen Wen were half-climbing towards the mast in the waves washing the deck. When they reached the mast, Zhang Yunzheng climbed up the handle on the mast, and Shen Wen followed his feet.

Shen Wen was very successful, but his arms were weak. Zhang Yunzheng climbed up a section, then turned around and stretched out his hand to pull Shen Wen up.

The hull was already bumpy, and the mast swayed more vigorously, which could throw people out fiercely. Zhang Yunzheng climbed more and more slowly, taking special care with each step. He sometimes gestured to Shen Wen to tell her not to follow, but Shen Wen was always behind.

Finally, they arrived near the sailor lying on the horizontal mast. The sailor barely stretched out a hand, pointed to a place above and shouted: "There! There! The knot is stuck!"

Zhang Yunzheng stared, in the middle of the sail, a knot was caught between the other ropes. If there were no wind and waves, the sailor might be able to take it off while standing on the horizontal mast. But now so turbulent, he couldn't stand still and couldn't handle it at all.

Shen Wen pulled off Zhang Yunzheng's clothes, Zhang Yunzheng pulled her up, and the two of them held the mast together. Zhang Yunzheng gestured to Shen Wen where the knot was, and shouted into Shen Wen's ear: "I'll try it, you're waiting for me here!"

Shen Wen shook his head and shouted back to Zhang Yunzheng: "Hold me tight!"

Zhang Yunzheng was taken aback: There is such a good thing! Busily stretched out his hand and hugged Shen Wen with the mast.

Shen Wen closed his eyes.

The wind and waves were terrifying, but Shen Wen relaxed. Zhang Yunzheng felt Shen Wen's body sink in his hands, and was so frightened that he hugged Shen Wen tightly. At this time, where is there any romantic feelings, don't be thrown off the mast first!

In the rainstorm, Zhang Yunzheng saw Shen Wen's eyes closed tightly, knowing that she was concentrating, and fearing that she would lose her mind and dare not let out the atmosphere.

This is the biggest test Shen Wen has faced since his rebirth. If the sails are not put down, the hull will inevitably be blown by strong winds. If the masts are broken, the sails will fall, which is nothing more. Shen Wen forced herself to be calm, she felt Zhang Yunzheng's powerful arms, steely around her back, she didn't need to be afraid...

She "saw" the huge energy around her, circling. She found the rope, concentrated her mind, and pushed the knot to the gap again and again... I don’t know how long the knot finally slipped out of the gap. With a crash, the side sails fell. The ship that was shaking violently seemed to be stable. A bit.

As soon as the people on the deck shouted, Shen Wen was collapsed, so sleepy he wanted to sleep right away. She opened her eyes and looked at Zhang Yunzheng, and said feebly: "I want to take a break."

Zhang Yunzheng's arms were already sore, but he said, "Okay! Don't worry." He didn't dare to relax a little, and continued to hug Shen Wen stiffly. Suddenly, he seemed to have seen his life: they will always be like this, together through storms and storms, and accompany each other...

Zhang Yunzheng feels that he is really lucky! I found such a capable daughter-in-law who can toss with myself. If it were a girl in a boudoir, it would be boring. ...

Shen Wen eased his anger before nodding to Zhang Yunzheng. Zhang Yunzheng did not dare to let her go down alone. He took Shen Wen by one hand and led her down the mast step by step. After reaching the deck, he helped Shen Wen to find a horn to sit down and block Shen Wen himself.

The sails are all down, Hong Er's confidence is greatly increased! It's up to him now. He steered the rudder and adjusted his direction, always keeping the ship perpendicular to the waves, and tried his best to prevent the wind and waves from hitting the ship wall from the side to reduce the risk of being overturned. The constant tension has made him almost crazy. The big waves hit him one by one, but it can't extinguish his arrogant fighting spirit: "You can't beat me! I am a natural helmsman! I am the best! I am better than my father. Strong! Don't even think about my jokes..."

The tired and desperate sailors were also affected by Hong Er's madness. They were busy pulling the rope and draining the water.

Zhang Yunzheng and Shen Wen sat side by side in the wind and waves, listening to the yell of Hong Er's dumb voice, Zhang Yunzheng suddenly laughed, Shen Wen also laughed, and the two of them were laughing together.

The sky was no longer black, it became grayish white.

Zhang Yunming could actually return to the capital in the first month, but Ping Yuan Hou knew that it was the day when people went home to visit relatives during the holidays. The emperor would definitely send someone to watch closely so that he could catch his son, so he sent a letter to Zhang Yunming , So that he is absolutely not allowed to appear near the capital during the first month. So Zhang Yunming left the deep mountains in the south after the new year, and slowly secretly walked north. Not only did he not reach the capital in the first month, but he did not wander outside the capital until March.

As Ping Yuanhou had guessed, he really wanted to return to the capital to meet the five princesses.

The news of the five princesses becoming a monk spread to the south after a long time. Zhang Yunming planned to return to Beijing as soon as he heard about it. He gave the fifth princess a lotus seed at that time, even if he hired the fifth princess as his wife in the future. Now the fifth princess is a monk, and a weak woman is fighting for his life so much for him. As a man, if there is no expression, it is too unacceptable.

It's just that when you get outside the capital, you can't go directly to see the five princesses, you have to see the elders first, so there is a courtesy. Therefore, Zhang Yunming was taken into one of Li's Zhuangzi by the people of Ping Yuanhou, and he waited for his father to arrange for him, and he did not have free action.
