Chapter 22 dragon on the water (below)
“Trident” seems to be completely sucked by the sea, stayed in the abyss around the sea wall wall struggle, but does not seem to move the place, we in the cockpit hand each other to hold the courage, all want to find some confidence from each other’s face to give themselves more courage to face this unimaginable test, but this world under the shock of the huge change. But under the shock of such a great change in the world, all the people looked at each other in dismay, and no one’s face could be seen as good as dead gray.
At this time, that burst of metal roar like steel bars break suddenly approaching, a huge shadow from the water wall slowly appear, a steel giant ship wreckage of the front half, from the water wall slowly probed out, like a ship in the sky, traveling to the vertical waterfall of the water wall, looking to fall into the lower sea surface.
At this moment the sea scene, completely immersed in a kind of horror in the boundless bleak, in the almost frozen moment, the ship under the ship seems to appear at the same time two sea, a sea hanging in the sky, and the other is the “trident” struggling to break free from the surface of the sea, the sky on the sea, inside the sea, fell out a lot of things from the bottom of the sea to bring, the wreck of the broken anchor, whale bones and bones, the wreckage of the wreck slowly from the wall of water, like a ship in the sky, traveling to the vertical wall of waterfalls, looking at the bottom of the sea. Shipwreck broken anchor, whale bone salamander ao, anyway, deposited in the seabed of the things were turned up, we are millions of tons of seawater in front of us, by the rising sea air to the sky, divided into hundreds of thick wall of water hanging overhead, a seabed shipwrecked wreckage, but also by a strong upward air currents pushed up to the sky, due to the edge of the wreckage of that nameless ship, also like those who were thrown out of the sea water like the sea fish, from the high altitude to slide down.
Uncle Ming raised his hand and pointed to the mid-air, and opened his mouth to shout at the top of his voice, but no one could hear him, and his ears were covered with an uninterrupted roar; I knew that he probably wanted to say, “The wreck is going to come down, and it is over our heads!” But words lost their effect at this point, I waved my hand and pointed hard to the left, signaling Ruan Hei at the helm, “If we don’t get the boat out of here quickly, we’re going to be screwed ……”
Ruan Hei, the captain of the ship, veins popped up on his head, desperately turned the rudder, the Trident’s hull finally hit a hard cross, the black wreckage of the ship as a heavy bomb dropped from high altitude, fell on the surface of the sea where the Trident’s bow had just stayed, the splash of water, stirring up a powerful wave! The water splashed, stirred up a powerful wave, the ship was impacted by the angry waves, swaying like a leaf in the wind, a moment of perilous situation.
The wreckage of the falling shipwreck just fell, all the water on the dragon was suddenly pumped up into the air, the two parts of the sea water from the separation of the thick wall of water obscured all the sky, the dark clouds together, the sea is dark, a blink of an eye, between them has not been recognizable in a short period of time after the static, fierce winds, torrential rains, I have never seen such a big rain in my life, wind and waves rolled, as if the heavenly river inverted, the surface of the sea! Wave tossing, “trident” in the stormy sea surface high and low, by one after another shocking huge waves thrown up and down.
We in the cabin tightly grasp the side of all the fixed things that can be grasped, feel the chest cavity of the five Tibetan six viscera, are followed by a leaf of the boat like a driftpink, was thrown up by the waves and waves of the ten thousand feet high in the air, a moment and then plunged into the bottomless abyss, was tossed upside down, the people to this point, completely out of their own control, can only listen to the fate of the heavens.
Although the sea air has been melted away, but in the sea formed a hurricane, in the sea water heaving, turbid waves rowing above the ocean waves, our only hope is that the British spirit of the modified sea willow ship “Trident” can withstand this test, but even if Uncle Ming and Ruan Hei this kind of sea wolves, but also can not judge how long this storm will last.
In this case, the ship salvage team most sufferers belong to the fat man, especially can not stand to be swept up into the sky by the waves, and like a kite with broken strings like falling, seawater and rainstorms continue to hit the cockpit observation window, the sky and the sea between the darkness of the sky and the sea, it is not possible to distinguish between the front and back high and low, to see the situation, his face is almost scared green, this time the wind and waves, but no longer in the air of the keening like a golden wind whimpering, listen to the wind and waves. The fat man kept reading: “Queen of Heaven Mother blessing, Queen of Heaven Mother quickly come to bless, go back to your old incense to send fruit to reshape the golden body ah …… disciple first to you kowtow a, come to save ah …… ”
I know that the fat man does not care about anything, only can not pass the fear of heights this level, now even according to the old way, close your eyes do not look at it does not help, the sea waves even boom and come, let a person even a respite when there is no space, even he begged for God to worship the Buddha, can be imagined in the heart of the more afraid, I worry that he was scared of the hands and feet all wasted from the cabin rolled into the sea, and then rushed to let Gu Guchai and more Ling siblings tightly hold him, do not let him! I was worried that he would lose his arms and legs and roll out of the cabin into the sea.
Uncle Ming in the sea all pointing to the alcohol to strengthen the courage, bite open the bottle of wine to pour a few mouths, on the contrary, is much more calm than others, he listened to the fat man begged the Queen of Heaven Niang Niang quickly come to blessing, suddenly the soul is not attached to the body, in a hurry, the mouth of the bottle of wine into the mouth of the fat man: “Queen of Heaven …… day your big head of the ghost ah, fat boy you have no mistake, this time also dare to talk nonsense ……, the bottle of wine into the mouth of the fat man. This time also dare to talk nonsense …… quickly drink, drink to block your mouth.”
Tin Hau Niang Niang is the people worship of the gods, the original calendar where the seafaring people, encountered wind and waves, ask Tin Hau Niang Niang blessing, will make the wind and waves calm down, the boat safe, no spirit should, but here there is a taboo, “Tin Hau Niang Niang” this appellation can only be used on land, such as in the Tin Hau Palace and other temples and shrines enshrine A-Ma Zu burning incense and wishing, this time to call “Tin Hau Niang Niang”. need to be called “Tin Hau”, and in the sea encountered dangerous winds and waves, do not call “Tin Hau Niang Niang blessing”, but must call “A-Ma Zu blessing”, as for the blessing of Tin Hau, this kind of words in the sea even mention can not be mentioned. As for asking for Tin Hau’s blessing, such words cannot even be mentioned at sea.
In fact, ‘Tin Hau’ and ‘A-Ma Zu’ is the same thing, but the people who run the boat all year round, almost no not superstitious, in the superstitious beliefs at sea, encountering waves, capsize the risk of the boat, the people on board, if they shouted Tin Hau Niang Niang to save their lives, although Tin Hau Niang Niang will definitely Come to save you, but must first row ceremonies, the Queen of Heaven out of the Palace of the row and ceremony scale is too large, very delayed, and so on the Queen of Heaven with the carriage rushed to, the cucumber dishes are cold, unless tired of living, or else the crew of the boat passengers in any case, do not dare to shout so much Queen of Heaven to save their lives.
When encountering an emergency on the sea, one must shout “Blessing of Mazu”, so that the Queen of Heaven can appear on the sea in the form of Mazu to save the suffering, this is the recognized rule of the sea wolves, so as soon as Uncle Ming heard the fat man shouting the Queen of Heaven, he hurriedly blocked his mouth with the wine, and then took the lead to yell hoarsely in the wind and rain: “Mazu manifests her spirit.”
