Cang Ri Qing Lan

Chapter 56 Breaking the Waves

Several hours passed, and the deck was still full of wind and rain. The feather gauze raincoat on the man standing in front of the rudder was completely soaked, and the wide sleeves were tied tightly with ropes, and rain still kept dripping in.

"What do you want to do... It doesn't matter if you are in a hurry to see the King of Hades, don't pull me." Cang Lan grabbed the rudder tightly with one hand, and blocked Hao Lianyuya's hand with the other.

Touching a piece of ice that was not alive at all, Hao Lianyu paused for a moment, clenched his fists tightly, and with a slight strangeness came the uncontrollable jealousy,

"I thought you were really a god protecting your body, not afraid of such cold rain... It can be said that the dignified Prince Yi has done his best for this military ration."

"Do you still think that there are many people who can take the helm at this time?" Cang Lan sighed, but she couldn't feel the heat coming out of her mouth. The early spring rain in the northern country was still too cold for him.People usually don't have a good temper when they are uncomfortable, but Cang Lan can still smile quite softly: "When do you want to see it?"

"Of course it's when you're exhausted and you can take advantage of it." Hao Lianyu once again stood leaning against the wall of the ship with his hands in his sleeves, at least putting on a spectator posture.

"First take advantage of others' dangers, and then bury them with me?"

"Don't worry, I don't want to die yet." Hao Lianyu snorted coldly, "Isn't it just driving a boat, you know it, I might not, you really think you are a god?"

"I see."

Cang Lan let out a "sigh" laugh, only laughing so that Hao Lianyu's old face turned red for no reason, wanted to say something but couldn't, but heard Cang Lan say:

"If Lord Haolian wants to help me, it's safer to ask for a list."

"Who said I'm going to help you!?" Hao Lianyu's teeth were visibly annoyed. "If you want that pirate to help you, convince him yourself!"

"Can't you?" Cang Lan's tone was not without regret, "I thought you had finally learned to be more considerate, but the rain is so cold that my whole body hurts."

"Stop imitating Lei Jiao's stupid look!"

"It's really sad, I really have a relapse of an old injury, and the pain is unbearable..."

"Do you want me to say that it's pleasing to the heart or is it your own fault?" Of course Cang Lan couldn't see any discomfort, Hao Lianyu gritted her teeth, turned around and got out of the cabin.

No one knows whether Lu Dan fell asleep or not, but he must have woken up when Hao Lianyu kicked his teeth on the side of the bed.

"Haoxuan Canglan told you to go up."

Seeing that there was no movement at all, Hao Lianyu seemed to be planning to leave without saying anything, so he only said:

"Tell him I can't help him win Sindar."

"Say it yourself, I'm not your errand." Hao Lianyu looked at the list and said again; "Are you so scared that you dare not even go up the deck?"

"So what if you're afraid, people who live at sea can't live long without reverence for the sea."

I don't care about Hao Lianyuya's aggressive generals at all. I am telling the truth. With experience, the captain will never continue sailing when encountering a storm. Drifting with sail and anchor is the safest countermeasure. But definitely not a minority.In front of the violent sea, Cang Lan's behavior is no different from a mantis' arms acting like a cart...a mantis arm acting as a cart that can attract attention!

The moment he stepped on the deck, Lu Dan became more certain of this idea.

The strong wind raged, destroying everything in the world, the sails were bulging, raindrops and arrows washed over the hull in pieces, the sea boiled and the waves rolled, and the upper deck was mixed with the rain, and the sailors were all tied up. Only the lifeline dared to run on the rickety deck, and the wind and waves were bigger than he imagined!

"Are you here?" Cang Lan glanced at the slip sheet that got out of the cabin, and greeted like an old friend.He didn't know whether it was the cold rain or the fear that made Lu Dan feel chills from head to toe. He was silent for a moment before saying:

"You're not going to reef the sails yet?"

"Actually, I'm going to ask to help me steer the boat."

Unexpectedly, he didn't refuse immediately, he hesitated for a moment,

"...Impossible." He couldn't take a moment to make up his mind.

It is impossible for a man to be adrift on an uncertain sea without some desire for adventure.After watching the scene of miraculously throwing off the fleet, he couldn't deny that he looked forward to Cang Lan's madness—it was a pure expectation of completing an impossible challenge.In order not to let this unbearable impulse affect his decision, he even chose to ignore Cang Lan's behavior of sailing in the storm.

"What? The second leader is unwilling to fulfill his promise?"

"Promise..." Zen Dan narrowed his eyes, not sure if he was thinking about it: "I remember talking about the time after you caught up with Xinda."

"You remember correctly."

"That……"

"If you don't deviate from the route according to the agreement, you should be nearby, your big boss."

"It's only been two hours now." Lu Dan glanced at Kukza, who was guarding the sail rope on the other side of the deck.

"I did say it would take at least four hours, but..." Cang Lan didn't turn her head, but seemed to see the move of the order, and said,

"Today's very rough wind and waves - Cook! Get ready to sail!"

Cang Lan suddenly raised her voice in the last sentence, and the sailors on both sides of the sailboat were already running quickly, taking a confrontational posture.

He didn't need to ask how big the extremely large wind and waves were. Seeing the waves rising in front of him, he could only feel the blood flow in his whole body. It was a wave that was enough to drag this large sailing ship into the bottom of the sea!The sea is showing its terrifying side without reservation!Accompanied by the roar of the waves, the bow of the ship has already gone against the swell of more than ten feet!

...It is impossible to survive such a big wave!Lu Dan didn't yell out the fear in his heart, because he knew that this kind of time was inevitable, and the only thing he could do was to hope that the sea would be lenient.

In the blink of an eye, the boat had already ridden the waves, and the entire bow was raised high!Hold tight to the lifeline on the boat, and stare at the waves in front of you. Whether you will climb over the top or fall into the bottom of the sea is a matter of the next moment!At this moment, the hull suddenly turned to the left and started to slide on the huge waves!

"The hull is too slanted! With such a strong wind, it will capsize...!" Before finishing his single sentence, Cang Lan shouted:

"reef!"

At the same time, the taut sails had loosened their hawsers, and most of the swelled wind immediately let go.The hull quickly stabilized, but Lu Shanxuan's heart did not let go-the waves that fell behind followed closely behind the stern, and if he was a little slower, he would be involved in it!

"Zhang Fan!" Cang Lan's voice was exceptionally clear amidst the howling wind and rain. She grabbed onto the lifeline reflexively, only to feel her body jerk to the right. It was full, and rushed out of the waves with the whole boat.In an instant, his feet were about to leave the deck, and the strong wind pressure rolled up the rain and hit his face all over his face. He only felt that it was very difficult to breathe. Looking at the huge waves that had fallen behind, he felt like a dream, and murmured :

"……pass……"

"If you can't pass it, you'll be in trouble." Try to turn the rudder as small as possible to let the sailboat pass through the waves, Cang Lan said lightly: "So when Er Tou leads you to steer, be careful of such big waves."

Cold grains exploded on his arms, and Lu Shan involuntarily clenched his fists:

"……I can not do it."

"It's really stubborn, but I don't hate loyal people, such people are worth my life." Her face was already abnormally cold, and Cang Lan just smiled.

On the contrary, Li Dan was a little hard to let go. He was stunned for a long time and was about to say something, when Hao Lianyu, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke:

"You sometimes tell the truth, why don't you say this in front of yourself?"

"When is Master Hao Lian referring to?" Cang Lan didn't turn her head, but looking from behind, the tense back at that moment was more obvious.

"You're right," a person may be able to control his expression at will, but it will show from a place that is easy to ignore, looking deeply at Cang Lan, Hao Lianyu's face is uncertain, and he snorted coldly. , "We've already caught up with that woman."

"Catch up... you mean Sindar?"

"Over there, it's the boat of your big boss." Hao Lianyu Ya finally moved his eyes away from Cang Lan's body, and cast them into the violent sea.

"..." Lu Dan didn't answer, followed the direction Hao Lianyu pointed, and barely saw a red shadow in the distance of the rising and falling waves. Even so, he was very familiar with the ship, it was definitely Xin Da proud of the 'red'.Almost at the same time, Kukza also trotted over. If you haven't seen it before, it's hard to imagine that a big guy can be so neat:

"Lord Wolf God, we have caught up with that pirate ship! Didn't you say it would take four hours to catch up?"

"Four hours means that if the big boss continues to sail." Cang Lan shrugged her eyebrows to clarify the preface, and she almost immediately understood why, such a huge wave, even under the same conditions, no one would be like Cang Lan. Lan is so adventurous, let alone someone who has the upper hand, his thoughts suddenly changed, but Cang Lan's voice came lazily, "Then... the second leader, you can cash in your bet."

"I……"

"You said it was easy."

Although the reasons are different, Hao Lianyuya has the same conclusion as Li Dan, "I don't want to hand over my life to others so casually."

"Although I'm glad you trust me so much, I've almost reached my limit and I'm about to lose the rudder." Cang Lan paused for a while, then took a step back suddenly, and let go of the rudder with one hand: "Go on." Come down and take care of the second leader."

"What! You...!"

The out-of-control sailboat was blown by the wind and swelled, and the hull suddenly tipped over. His heart almost stopped beating, and before he had time to think about it, he grabbed the tiller and barely stabilized the hull.

"Good catch." Cang Lan praised.

"Are you crazy! How dare you let go of the rudder!" The roar of blood was still pounding his brain, and he couldn't help but say that he was losing his composure.

"Look ahead, big waves are coming."

Cang Lan kindly reminded that before she could finish her words, Lu Dan obviously felt the force of the impact on the rudder suddenly increase, and the overwhelming waves had already overwhelmed her.

"No, I have never tried at a time like this...!"

"The reason is very simple, just like surfing... turn the rudder to the right! Lower the sail!"

He didn't have the time to pay attention to what the "surfing" in Cang Lan's words was. After he stopped drinking, Lu Shan involuntarily turned the rudder to the right, and he was already riding on the waves.

"Didn't you do it?"

"..." Lu Dan didn't answer, his whole body was tense, the rudder in his hand was heavier than he imagined, and it took most of his strength just to resist the impact of the sea water!

The waves at the back were falling against the stern of the boat, as if it would hit the boat at any time, but after all, he held on to the rudder and rushed to the end of the waves, gritted his teeth and barely took the rudder to the right!However, as soon as the sailboat slid down, he immediately realized that the time to turn the rudder was too early, and the towering waves collapsed instantly, with a speed several times faster than the sailboat, instantly enveloping half of the ship!

It's about to turn over! !The thoughts that crossed his mind were his years of experience at sea!The rudder in his hand was also hit by the current, and it weighed more than a thousand catties, but when he was about to let go, he suddenly stopped!

It was too late for Lu Dan to be surprised, the sea water had already hit the deck covering his head and face, impacting everything on the ship, someone's whisper seemed to be caught in the roaring sound of water in his ears:

"Just hold the rudder like this! We can pass!"

The sound of the hull being squeezed by the water is like a mournful cry of injury. Time seems to be grasped by this force that can drag everything into the bottom of the sea. There is nothing in sight except the sea. Shaking faintly with force, the sea water has already flowed down the deck quickly, and the hull of the ship has floated above the waves again!

The heavy rain and the dark sky seemed kind at this moment, and he finally breathed out the breath he held, and suddenly saw a hand with distinct joints on the rudder, although that hand had been frozen to the point of death. Fan Qing, Lu Dan still understood that it was this hand that helped him just now.

Withdrawing her hand, Cang Lan stroked her wet silver hair, and took a breath, appreciatively saying:

"The second leader is really good, then I will go back to the cabin first."

"Didn't you see that the ship almost sank just now?!"

Of course, Lu Dan could not agree with Cang Lan's statement, he hurriedly glanced at the other party's pale but calm face, and couldn't help feeling a little hesitant.

"It's okay, you will do better next time." After beckoning, Cang Lan had already turned around and walked to the hatch, her tone was neither itchy nor painful.

"Wait……"

When Lu Dan was still hesitating to speak, Hao Lianyu had already answered the words angrily:

"And next time? I was almost washed into the sea just now."

"Aren't you all right?" She glanced cooperatively at the crew on the deck, and Cang Lan's words were not without suspicion of pretending to be blind.

"That's a lifeline!"

"It's good to be able to do this for the first time. He is definitely the captain you can rest assured." Ignoring the voice of protest completely, Cang Lan opened the hatch and went in. After thinking for a while, she turned her head and said: " Master Hao Lian, you'd better give up the idea of ​​replacing you as soon as possible, believe me, if you really let you take the helm, we have already fed the fish."

"Haoxuan Canglan!" Hao Lianyu could only roar angrily.

Lu Shan didn't speak any more, even though his mind was full of various thoughts.There is a kind of person who may not be able to influence power and interests, but will be convinced by the trust of others.

"The second leader is really powerful." Only Kukza could accept the status quo: "The first time Lord Wolf God encountered this kind of storm, even the mast was broken."

"Cook, focus on your sails."

Cang Lan's voice was not loud, just enough to reach Kukeza's ears from the cabin, but it obviously couldn't achieve the effect:

"I don't need my help now, Lord Wolf God. By the way, we drifted on the sea for many days that time..."

"...So you almost fed the fish yourself?"

Hao Lianyuya's sarcasm was clearly a retaliation for what she said just now, so Cang Lan simply ignored it, but she didn't want the boat to tip over.

"Why are you so...?!" The person behind was obviously taken aback, hugged him quickly, and saw the red and swollen place under the collar, and was even more shocked, "...you said that the old injury recurred, so it's not a lie? "

"leave me alone."

Immediately, there was a kind of anger at being exposed, but Cang Lan was also extremely exhausted, and she didn't bother to cover it up. She entered the captain's cabin, took off her clothes, and then got into the thick bedding, making it clear that she didn't want to say more.

Naturally, he knew that he was very reluctant to be approached by anyone at the moment, and various emotions roiled in his eyes for a while, before Hao Lianyu said bitterly:

"You are really willing to work hard for your lover."

After finishing speaking, seeing Cang Lan frowning impatiently and couldn't help but want to step forward, Tu Laosan rushed in a few times:

"It's not good! Then who... Prince Yi! Then... the boat leaked!"

"What..." Hao Lianyu was startled, and instantly understood the reason: "Could it be when I was photographed by the waves just now?"

"Tu Laosan, right? You go and help make up."

After a little relaxation, the discomfort in the body has already spread to all parts of the body like a backlash, Cang Lan didn't move, and he didn't want to move again unless it was absolutely necessary: ​​"Hao Lian, you go too."

"Don't order me."

"Okay, I beg you," Cang Lan answered without sincerity but quickly: "Go as soon as you are satisfied, there is not enough manpower now, and it will be too late if it is too late."

"Don't lie down and say such things!"

Master Hao Lianyu Ya's voice can definitely be said to be gnashing of teeth, and he looked back at Cang Lan, but he still slammed the door unwillingly.

The storm on the sea has not abated in the slightest. On the sea not far from the black sailboat, another sailboat is drifting with the turbulent waves, carefully turning the rudder to avoid the overwhelming waves. It is not difficult to know from the cautious and skillful route selection The helmsman on this boat is also first class.

"Boss! Xuanguo's ship...discovered Xuanguo's ship...!"

The rain-covered sailor crashed into the captain's cabin, even though he said it himself, he still had an unbelievable expression on his face.

"In this kind of storm?!" Sinda jumped up almost immediately, rushing onto the deck before he finished speaking.

"What should I do... Big boss, they passed..." Seeing Sinda standing motionless on the deck, the sailor beside him swallowed his saliva, and finally managed to say: "...I...we want to Chase?"

"...Chasing? How do we chase?" Until Cang Lan's boat disappeared from sight, Xinda's clenched fist gradually loosened, and suddenly he laughed loudly:

"We've already lost."

"...Then...do you want to turn around..."

"Go back?"

"Anyway...their fleet is still behind," the voice of the speaker gradually stabilized, "Let's just intercept the fleet."
