There are not many things to do at sea. A voyage may take ten and a half days, or it may last as long as half a year. There are very few things to really do in such a long time, so how to spend the remaining time?
Gambling, drinking.
It doesn't really count as gambling. They can gamble on anything, such as cigarettes, snacks, alcohol... except for their wives.
Gregory drank less today and came to Han Qi with his newly purchased smartphone.
"Han, you are also a photographer, please teach me how to take beautiful pictures."
"Huh? Why do you suddenly want to learn to take pictures?"
“My wife said I don’t look good in photos.”
"Ha ha."
Han Qi laughed out loud when he heard this. This is a common problem among boyfriends nowadays. Even if someone who knows how to take pictures and composition takes a photo of his girlfriend, they will not be satisfied... and they don't want to think about how beautiful they are.
Instead of learning how to take photos, learn how to photoshop.
But Han Qi has nothing to do now, so it doesn't matter if he teaches him. He should just consolidate his own learning achievements.
But thinking of this, he immediately remembered that there was a professional photographer on the boat. Why did Gregory come to find him?
If Han Qi's photography skills are still at the blue level, then Sean's skills have undoubtedly reached the gold level, and he may even have relevant talents. Otherwise, he would not have achieved what he has achieved in his life.
"Why didn't you go find Sean? His skills are much better than mine."
"Sean sits on the trick pole every day. He is very serious and doesn't know what he is doing, so I am too embarrassed to disturb him."
Look, I have nothing to do.
Oh, yes, there is indeed nothing to do.
There was no signal on the computer at sea, so he couldn't play games. Besides, it was inconvenient for him to operate because of the constant shaking of the mountain, so he also took up the hobby of one of the sailors, reading.
This man brought more than twenty books aboard, and according to Gregory, the books he brought aboard were different every time.
Han Qi admired such people very much. Reading books like this must be very literate.
In the past two days, he has been reading a book called "A Farewell to Arms".
This kind of time is really suitable for doing this kind of thing. There is no mobile phone, no Internet, and there will be no external interference.
Han Qi cleared his throat and said loudly: "Well, since you want to learn, I will teach you. Mobile phone photography does not require anything too advanced. It is very simple. I will start with the nine compositions. This is the most basic."
Han Qi talked about the most commonly used methods of composition, and then talked about the role of light and shadow in photography. The day passed.
As dusk fell, several sailors put away various facilities on the ship.
Han Qi sat on the bow of the boat, watching the fishing boat cut through the thorns in the ocean.
Cutting through thorns is very vivid here, and the sea breeze is strong, but in fact the ship is not moving forward. The anchor is deeply embedded in the sea, and the ship can make circular motions around the anchor.
But again, you know nothing on the ocean.
You don't move, but the waves are moving and the wind is also moving. They are always hitting the ship and blowing into your face. This can give people the illusion that the ship is always moving forward.
Han Qi looked at the sunset and watched him gradually sink into the sea.
In fact, the weather today is not very good, the wind and waves are very strong, and the clouds in the sky are mostly dark clouds.
But the sun is also really beautiful.
Thousands of rays of light saturate the red clouds. Occasionally, you can see the rays of the setting sun peeking out from the gaps in the dark clouds, and you can see the scene where the gods appear in the movie. The light like golden lines will shine as far as the sea level.
at.
No wonder some people in ancient times said that there were fairy mountains overseas.
Seeing this scene, Han Qi felt the urge to "chasing the light".
This kind of scenery is very beautiful. If you can see this kind of scene on the shore, it will become a famous scenic spot in any country, just like the nine suns of Bayinbuluke. No matter when you go there, you can only see tourists.
The back of the head.
It's just that there are no tourists here and it's very quiet.
On the booby pole, Sean concentrated his attention on the bow of the ship with his camera.
A small section of the pointed head of the dilapidated ship was exposed, and the waves occasionally hit, hitting small mist-like water droplets. Han Qi sat on the bow of the ship, looking deeply at the setting sun, and the soft sunlight of dusk fell on him
on his face, making this expression look somewhat sacred.
Sean hesitated for a moment, gave up on the idea of taking a silhouette photo, and took this photo using the light and shadow he saw in his eyes at the moment.
After he finished taking the photo, he looked back at the photo, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.
There are countless interpretations in those deep eyes.
What Sean thinks is... nothing can stop a man from yearning for the sea.
As for what other people think, it depends on what the person who saw this photo was thinking at the time. No matter what problems or doubts or hesitations in life, you can find the answer from this photo.
He climbed down and wanted to show this photo to Han Qi.
A storm came and the boat shook violently.
Sean held on to the cabin, stabilized himself, and looked forward.
kindness?
Where has my brother Han Qi gone?
He vaguely heard someone calling for help. Sean's heart condensed and he quickly ran towards where Han Qi was standing just now. Sure enough, when he lowered his head, he saw Han Qi's brother calling for help in the sea.
Han Qi is not in any danger now. He can swim, and he can swim in the coldest lake in the world.
So there is no need to worry about safety for the time being.
But that was also temporary, because Han Qi had made all preparations during the winter swimming and wore a diving suit to prevent the loss of body temperature. Today, most of the clothes he wore were made of wool, which was very warm if it didn't touch the water, but when it did,
The water made all the equipment cold and very heavy.
The most dangerous thing is that this is a stormy sea area with undercurrents surging under the ocean. If Han Qi is not rescued earlier, it will be difficult to rescue Han Qi if he gets caught in the undercurrents.
Sean turned around, took down a lifebuoy from the cabin, threw it down, and shouted, "Brother, just hold on, I'll find someone to save you."
At this time, only two photographers who like scenery, Han Qi and Sean, were on the deck, and everyone else was drinking and eating meat in the warm cabin. And with Han Qi joining them, they had people give them away when they purchased supplies last time.
I got a lot of hot pot bases.
As soon as he entered the cabin, what he saw was the excitement inside.
You cannot eat hot pot in such an environment. The waves are too big and the hot pot soup will be spilled everywhere.
But this is not a problem for smart sailors.
They use a very large pot, and they will close the lid when they are not eating the food. When eating, they hold the pot with their left hand to keep the hot pot soup balanced in the wind and waves, and use their right hand to scoop out what they get with a large colander.
What is.
They and the boat are in a relatively stationary state, so of course the hot pot soup will not spill out.
Sean also heard the captain shout: "Drink!!"
He went up and grabbed the bottle and shouted: "Mr. Han fell off the boat!"
"What?"
"Didn't you tell me not to walk around the edge of the ship today?"
"Quick, quick, save people!"
Don't worry about what's on the table. Let's just look through it when the time comes. Nothing is more important than a human life.
And everyone likes Han Qi very much. Han Qi will tell them stories, solve problems for them, and draw a picture for each of them with a pencil. These pictures were sent to their families a few days ago.
Han Qi is everyone's good friend, and everyone doesn't want anything to happen to him.
Follow Sean's footsteps to the bow of the ship.
Good guy, no!
The ship moves very fast in such waves, and sometimes you can hear the sound of the anchor being pulled among the noisy sounds in such an environment.
So even if less than a minute had passed, Han Qi might have been left far behind.
Everyone scattered and started searching, and finally saw Han Qi on the side of the ship, holding on to the glass outside the cabin. He was in good spirits at the moment. When he saw someone spotting him, he waved and shouted: "Brothers, put down the ladder, save me."
!It’s so cold!”
It was Jimmy who discovered Han Qi. Seeing that Han Qi was in high spirits, he first breathed a sigh of relief, then called his other companions and went to get the ladder.
After everyone's concerted efforts, Han Qi left the dangerous ocean and climbed up the ladder three minutes later.
The captain and the first mate stood on both sides, each holding one of Han Qi's arms and pulling him up. Their faces turned red from the exertion and tension... The sweater made of sheep wool was too heavy when it was soaked in water.
Qi weighed at least two to three hundred kilograms at this time.
Han Qi fell to the deck with a "snap", sea water splashed, and everyone was hit.
Only then did he start shouting: "Fuck, I'm so unlucky!"
Everyone was stunned.
Damn it?
It seems to be in Chinese, what does it mean?
But the good news is that Han Qi is in very good condition and has not become exhausted or depressed as they thought, so they looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
Sean also exhaled and stepped forward to extend his hand to Han Qi.
"Brother, why did you disappear as soon as I lost sight of you? We promised to take you to chase whales, but we can't jump into the sea to find them. Also, what the hell do you mean? I always feel that you Chinese people often say this
Words."
It's not like swearing, because when he watched the video, he wouldn't say that when swearing.
"Indicating emotional excitement."
Han Qi didn't want to say more on this issue. He had to take a shower and change clothes. It was too cold. It was really too cold. Moreover, he was wearing clothes that could easily accelerate the loss of body temperature. If he went shirtless, he could last for twenty.
Minutes, then Han Qi can swim in this water for at most ten minutes.
Of course, this requires warm-up and preparation.
He is extremely cold now.
Tom has put some water for him.
Bathing on the ocean is a luxury thing, but now we don't care about wasting it, at least we have to recover first.
Han Qi was helped by Sean to take a shower. Jimmy took Tom and chatted enthusiastically: "Mr. Han Qi's physical strength is really good. He swam in the sea for a few minutes and kept up with the speed of the ship. He was still so energetic."
.”
"I heard that Mr. Han is a racing driver, and of course he has very good physical strength. I have wanted to be a racing driver before, no, I want to be a racing driver now too."
The first mate smiled happily and gave off a false alarm.
"Fuck!!" He suddenly yelled.
The other crew members not only had reasons, but also shouted neatly: "Fuck!!"
Then they remembered that this was a sentence in Chinese that Han Qi just blurted out, and they all laughed. The solemn atmosphere at the scene was instantly broken up by this sentence, and laughter once again climbed onto the faces of several old sailors.
Han Qi was really tired and fell asleep quickly after taking a shower.
Gregory, who was sleeping on his upper bunk, occasionally glanced at Han Qi who was sleeping soundly. After feeling that his expression was getting worse and worse, he came down and touched Han Qi's forehead.
"I have a fever."
First mate Spencer didn't sleep either and said: "It's normal. He has been soaked in ice water for so long, and he should be quite scared himself. It's normal to get sick once at night. I have contacted a nearby rescue ship.
, send him there tomorrow."
Sean didn't sleep either. He was a little worried about Han Qi, but he also joked: "This man also told me that he would not get sick all year round. Unexpectedly, he had a fever not long after boarding the ship."
The sailor in his upper bunk who was very elegant and often read said: "Mr. Han is very strong. Even though he is thin, both of us have to lose to him in arm wrestling. And we can't blame him for getting sick this time."
Ah, whoever comes here will get sick even after such a visit."
As soon as these words came out, everyone started talking one after another.
Turns out he wasn't even asleep.
Gregory simply sat beside Han Qi's bed to take care of him, and Sean also got up to check whether he had brought any antipyretic medicine.
Jimmy asked gossiping: "When did you have an arm wrestling match with Mr. Han? There were two people, one was you, and who was the other?"
"It's me." the first mate said angrily.
This is a very shameful thing. When two people went into battle, they couldn't win over Han Qi's right hand, and he kept his elbow on the table and didn't move the whole time. He just used pure strength to crush them.
Kung Fu, this must be Chinese Kung Fu... the first mate thought over and over again.
The next day, when Han Qi woke up, she felt a headache, dizzy and felt like vomiting.
Sean was the first to notice that Han Qi was awake and said, "You must have slept comfortably."
"What's the point? I sleep more comfortably when I'm at home. Shit, my head hurts, I don't have much energy, I have a cold?"
"Well, I have a fever. A boat will pick you up soon. I'll go with you."
"Didn't you say whale watching? How can we leave?"
"I can't delay my photography plan for this trip. I originally thought it would take a long time, but after seeing the news in the past few days, I feel more and more that the time calculation is wrong, so I have to make preparations now."
"Where are you going?" Han Qi asked.
"Iceland, there is a small volcano in Iceland that is about to erupt. I want to go and see it. If possible, I would also like to rent a plane and experience the state of the volcanic eruption center up close. It must be very exciting."
"This is awesome, can I follow you to see it?"
"You?" Sean looked at Han Qi, "Come on, your face is as red as a monkey's butt. I know you are in good spirits, but your body must also be in good health. This place is close to Iceland. You go to live in Iceland first.
I’ll be in the hospital for a few days, and I’ll come back to you after I’ve taken the photos.”
As I was talking, the sound of a siren in the distance came to mind.
The sea rescue ship has arrived.
There are no other ships nearby, so if you want to contact the ships returning to land, except for the supply ships that come every few days, you can only contact the rescue ships by paying money.
Fortunately, Han Qi and Sean are both people who are not short of money.
