Ye An

On the sixth day of departure, the fleet encountered a sudden storm.

The sky is covered by dark clouds, and the clear sky is covered by dark clouds.The wind was strong, and the originally calm sea suddenly set off huge waves.The waves are several feet high, and when they are crushed by their heads, they are like destroying the sky and destroying the earth, and they can capsize the ship at any time.

The boat pitched and swayed in the water like leaves falling in the helpless wind.

The bow of the ship was lifted by the waves, and the icy water washed up on the deck.Several sailors nearly fell into the sea and survived by grabbing the boat rail at the last moment.

"Quickly fasten the rope!"

The experienced sailor roared loudly, grabbed the rope as thick as his arm, quickly wrapped it around his waist, and wrapped the other end around the mast, tying several dead knots in a row.

More sailors took action. They no longer cared about the sea fish they caught, imitating the appearance of old sailors, and fixed themselves firmly on the deck with ropes.Even if his whole body was bruised and purple, and he choked on several mouthfuls of sea water, at least he could save his life.

There was a flash of light in the clouds, and then there was thunder, and a thick lightning bolt fell from the sky. The sky in the distance seemed to be torn open, and the strong wind whizzed in with the torrential rain, trapping the entire fleet.

In such bad weather, not to mention the first-time sailors, experienced sailors were also beating drums in their hearts, and couldn't help but squeeze a cold sweat.

Ye An stood on the deck, with ropes wrapped around his waist, and he couldn't help shaking in the bumps.

Another wave hit, and several sailors were rushed to the stern. The ropes on their bodies were constantly tensed, and they might break at any time, and the situation was in danger.

"catch!"

As the situation became more and more critical, Ye An didn't care too much, untied the rope around his waist, and threw it to the crew members who were about to fall into the water.

Unexpectedly, huge waves suddenly rose up and covered the entire ship. Ye An had no time to react, and was swept away by the waves and fell into the vast sea.

"grown ups!"

Seeing this scene, Rachiva's eyes were tearing apart, and regardless of the danger, she tore off the rope on her body and rushed straight to the place where Ye An fell into the water.

The next moment, the sea surface suddenly changed.

A vortex appears in the turbulent waves, and a large number of fish gather around the vortex.

A huge figure emerged from the vortex, rising slowly from the water until it completely emerged from the water.

"Look, what is that?!"

The crew exclaimed loudly, and they were all attracted.

In the vast sea, surrounded by huge waves, a huge sea turtle was slowly floating up.

After living for an unknown number of years, the huge body of the sea turtle is like a small island. The tortoise shell is covered with barnacles of various colors, and there are many on the top of the head and limbs.

The waves that can overturn a ship can't shake the giant tortoise.

When the sickle-like forelimbs swiped, the splashes brought up collided head-on with the waves, like an explosion, and the roar almost overwhelmed the thunder.

The school of fish did not dare to get close to the turtle and wanted to seek its shelter, so they could only try their best to jump over the waves and swim to the belly of the turtle, so as not to be swept away by the bigger waves.

"My lord, my lord is there!"

Racheva held the side of the boat with both hands, and looked through the storm to catch the figure on the turtle's back.

Ye An, who fell into the water before, was now standing firmly on the turtle's back.Wiping the rain off his face with one hand, he waved vigorously in the direction of the fleet.

The sea turtle approached the fleet, and the crew members immediately dropped the rope, ready to pull Ye An up.

Unexpectedly, Ye An had no intention of boarding the boat at all, but asked everyone to collect more ropes and pull the boat behind the turtle.

"Hurry up!"

Ye An glanced at the sky and learned from the seagull that the storm would not end soon and the situation was urgent, so he could only urge the crew to act quickly and not delay.

After fixing his own boat, Ye An sent a signal to the other boats.

Xiao Yun and Zhao Weng immediately understood his intention and ordered someone to throw the rope.The merchant ship farthest away moved a little slower and was almost overturned by a sudden wave.

The mutated sea turtle is huge in size and amazing in strength, and it is easy to drag more than a dozen sea ships.

In its eyes, the weight of the ship is nothing at all, far less than the barnacles on its back.These guys sticking to the body are its big trouble, making it extremely distressed.

Ye An sensed the turtle's emotions.

Can make the gentle behemoth so annoying, even violent, it shows how annoying barnacles can be.

"I'll help you solve it, how about it?"

After feeding all the crystals he carried with him to the turtle, Ye An pulled out the short knife on his body, and after getting the turtle's consent, he began to pry the barnacles attached to the top of its head and around its mouth.

The mutated barnacles not only grow bigger, but also have extraordinary strength, and also have a certain degree of aggression.

It took Ye An a lot of effort to pry the barnacles off the turtle's head.

Grabbing the thing that was nearly half a meter long, he handed it to the turtle. Ye An was about to throw it away when the turtle suddenly turned his head and swallowed the whole barnacle into his mouth, biting the shell and flesh until it creaked.

It's not so much eating, it's more like venting anger.

Ye An scratched his chin. In his memory, the turtle's food should be jellyfish, not these shelled sea creatures.After another thought, herbivores can eat meat and bones, and there seems to be no problem with the change in the diet of mutant turtles?

So, during the next voyage, Ye An worked tirelessly to pry the barnacles, some of them were fed into the mouths of sea turtles, and the other part was eaten by the gathered seabirds.

Turtles chew up barnacles, eat only a small portion, and spit out the rest, apparently not liking the smell of barnacles.The minced meat is scattered in the sea, attracting more sea fish to compete for this rare meal.

With the help of sea turtles, the fleet survived the storm safely.

In the early morning of the next day, the dark clouds finally dissipated and the sky returned to blue.

The rising sun shines down on the sun, and the sea surface is silvery and sparkling.

A group of colorful flying fish jumped out of the water, intending to avoid the pursuit of sailfish, but unfortunately encountered seabirds searching for food, followed by pursuers, and finally failed to escape one.

The fleet was out of danger, and the barnacles on the turtles' backs were also cleaned up.

The broken barnacles attracted a large number of sea fish, and the crew took the opportunity to cast their fishing nets, and all the fish caught on board were big fish, which can be said to be a good harvest.

After noon, Ye An dragged the rope onto the deck and waved his arms to bid farewell to the turtle.

Without the barnacles, the turtles relaxed and quickly disappeared underwater.

The sailors raised the sails, and the fleet set sail again.

Ye An stood at the bow of the boat, holding the beads obtained from the barnacles in his hand, and could feel the energy no less than spar.

This was definitely a pleasant surprise.

Looking at the sea level ahead, Ye An raised a smile, looking forward to the next journey more and more, presumably there will be more surprises waiting for him.
