After hearing this, Peng Changsheng seemed particularly interested:
"Okay, no problem. If you can really help me cure my old problem of neurasthenia and insomnia, you will be doing me a big favor!"
Ye Binghong smiled and said:
"Captain Peng, you are serious, this is all a trivial effort."
While the thirteen or so people on the left were sitting together chatting, the captain Jia Bing and his son Jia Shunfeng walked over together.
"Guys, are you satisfied with the food?" Jia Bing said, finding an empty seat and sitting down, with his son Jia Shunfeng standing behind him.
Peng Changsheng said with a smile:
"Captain Jia, the food is good, we are used to it."
Jia Bing nodded:
"That's good, that's good, Captain Peng, I see that no one in your team seems to be seasick?"
Peng Changsheng looked at everyone and asked:
"Is anyone seasick?"
Thirteenth from the left:
"We are all here. No one gets seasick, and my wife doesn't get seasick either."
Jia Bing nodded after hearing this. He first took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket and handed it to Peng Changsheng:
"Captain Peng, want one?"
Peng Changsheng waved his hands repeatedly:
"Captain Jia, we won't smoke in public places."
After Jia Bing heard this, he put away the cigarette in his hand with some embarrassment. After coughing twice, he looked at Zuo Shisan and others and said:
"Guys, there's something I have to tell you in advance."
"What do you mean?" Peng Changsheng suddenly became nervous when he heard Jia Bing's words.
Jia Bing said with a serious expression:
"Further eighty-nine nautical miles, at about three or four o'clock tonight, we will reach the first dangerous sea area. People in our industry call that place "Black Bermuda." You heard this name
We know that that sea area is very dangerous, and it is also the only way for us to go to the East China Sea. As long as we safely sail through that black sea area tonight, there will be no danger in the following routes."
Hearing this, Zuo Shisan couldn't help but ask:
"Captain Jia, what's so scary about black Bermuda?"
Jia Shunfeng, son of Captain Jia Bing, explained:
"The reason why we call that sea area Black Bermuda is because the water in that sea area is dark black, and the darkness is particularly scary. Moreover, there are often storms and tornadoes in that black sea area, and even waves with a height of several meters can cause waves.
Encountered, the last time we passed through Black Bermuda, the huge wall of waves scared me so much that I had the same dream again for days and nights!"
After hearing Jia Shunfeng's words, everyone focused their attention on Ye Binghong.
Ye Binghong immediately understood what everyone meant, and quickly patted his chest with his hand and said:
"Don't worry, everyone, as long as I'm here, wind and waves won't be a problem at all."
After hearing what Ye Binghong said, Jia Bing continued:
"Actually, what made Black Bermuda famous was not the wind and waves, but an incredible and strange thing that happened more than 20 years ago!"
"What's weird?" Ye Binghong asked.
"If you want to hear something, I'll tell you all... More than 20 years ago, when I was a sailor, I heard my master tell me about this extremely weird and terrifying thing.
I can’t remember exactly which year my master told me about at that time. It must have been the summer of 1990. A sailing ship named “Southern Navigation 1884” was sailing in the waters as large as “Black Bermuda”.
The ship was sailing very smoothly with full sails. My master was on another ship at the time. After they discovered the sailboat and observed it for a while, they realized something was wrong, because the sailboat seemed to be on the other side.
It has no target and generally floats on the sea with the wind.
My master and the others felt more and more strange the more they looked at it, so they rowed a boat to get on board. After getting on the boat, they found that it was quiet on the boat. After looking around, they found that there was no one on the boat!
But the goods such as grain, jewelry and porcelain in the cargo hold were intact, and even the fruits were fresh and no one had touched them. But what frightened them was why all the sailors on the ship had ran away? No one could answer it at the time!
The only living creature on the ship is a parrot bird that was half-starved to death. Unfortunately, it couldn't speak...
After calling the police, the news was quickly blocked, and the follow-up to the matter has never been concluded.
Until now, my master has not figured out where all the people on board the sailing ship "Southern Voyage 1884" went?"
After Jia Bing finished speaking, he looked at the thirteen people on the left and asked:
"Where do you think those sailors, crew members and captain's mates went? Why did they disappear mysteriously in Black Bermuda?"
The fat man on the side listened with interest. After thinking for a while, he said:
"Could it be that they encountered a ghost?"
After the captain Jia Bing heard what the fat man said, he quickly made a gesture to silence him:
"Shh~ Brother, don't talk about people during the day, and don't talk about ghosts at night!"
The fat man nodded after hearing this:
"Sure, I won't say, I won't say..."
Peng Changsheng said at this time:
"Captain Jia, actually we can't confirm the authenticity of this matter. Maybe your master made up the story to scare you intentionally, or maybe he heard it from other sailors."
After Captain Jia Bing heard what Peng Changsheng said, he said decisively:
"Impossible. I know my master's character and conduct. He is a very honest person. He has been an honest man all his life and will never lie or deceive others."
Peng Changsheng said:
"Captain Jia, we have to believe in science. Of course, it is possible that what your master said is true, but no one has found it. I can't believe there are any evil spirits and ghosts in this vast sea?"
After hearing what Peng Changsheng said, Captain Jia quickly said:
"Captain Peng, don't say this nonsense, or put it in a bad way. This is the most taboo thing for those of us who go to sea."
Peng Changsheng nodded and said:
"I understand, I understand, Captain Jia, you and Mr. Jia Shunfeng will have to work hard tonight. We are all laymen, and we can't help much if we want to help."
Jia Bing said:
"It's hard work or not, this is what we should do. I just want to inform you in advance that Black Bermuda is not a kind place. When our ship is going to pass there, everyone must be mentally prepared in advance.
.”
Zuo Shisan nodded and said:
"Thank you, Captain Jia. You guys talk first. I'm going to see if my wife is awake."
After saying that, Zuo Shisan got up and went to buy An Rushuang some of her favorite dishes, packed the bags and returned to the room on the second floor of the ship alone.
The room was very dark at this time. Seeing An Rushuang still lying on the bed and not waking up, Zuo Shisan put the lunch box on the table and sat cross-legged opposite An Rushuang, practicing while waiting for An Rushuang.
