Chapter 1246 A Thousand Miles of Yellow River and a Pot (Two in One)
On a rainy morning, the entire crew of the Qingque boarded the sailboat, then lifted anchor and set sail. They left the Fire Tribe on the edge of the river and continued down the river to explore the waters and waters downstream that they were unfamiliar with.
place.
Many people from the Fire Tribe, including Chen, Huo Miao, Huo Tan, etc., stood here to bid farewell, watching the respected Son of God and others board the ship, and ride on such a behemoth all the way down.
"Go back quickly! Don't get caught in the rain here! Be careful of getting sick!"
On the big boat, Han Cheng, holding a flowery umbrella, said loudly to Chen and others who were still staying on the shore.
Chen nodded vigorously, and then led everyone to turn around and head towards the tribe's residence.
In fact, compared to himself and others, Chen was more worried about Shenzi and his party.
I and others were just soaking in the rain for a while, and soon they were able to return to the tribe, sheltered from the wind and rain.
However, Shenzi and others had to keep moving forward in such weather.
Didn't Chen persuade Shenzi to wait here for a while, and wait until the rain stopped and the wind subsided before setting off.
But the Son of God did not accept this opinion.
The Son of God said that the tribe will form a large fleet in the future and head all the way to the east.
When we came to the sea, there was no cover and no obstacles, and there were no matter how big the wind and waves were.
Now you can take shelter from the wind and rain in a house, but where will you go to take shelter from the wind and waves on the sea in the future?
Moreover, the wind and rain are not very strong at this time, so it is good to get wet in the rain in advance and get used to it. It will help all the crew members to adapt to this kind of life as soon as possible...
The Son of God’s words always make sense, are always so thoughtful and thought-provoking.
After hearing the words spoken by the Son of God with his own ears and understanding the thoughts of the Son of God, Chen couldn't help but feel such emotion in his heart, and his heart broke for the Son of God again...
Han Cheng's insistence on going forward in the rain was not arbitrary. In addition to the words he said to Chen, he also had something to rely on.
When Lai and others were building the sailboat, they had already considered the rainy and windy weather, so they built a shed at the rudder that could be used to protect it from wind and rain.
The shed is open and bright, and does not block the view of the person at the helm. In addition to shielding from wind and rain, it can also provide shade when the sun is hot, which is very practical.
As for the rest of the people, they can naturally take shelter in the cabin when it rains.
Therefore, I am not afraid of such wind and rain.
Although it was raining at this time, many people entered the cabin to escape the wind and rain, but there was not only one person at the helm on the deck.
On the deck, there were some people standing here holding umbrellas or wearing raincoats.
Among them is Han Cheng, the divine son of the Qingque tribe.
Although the wind and water were smooth at this time, the sailing speed was not very fast. Compared with before, it was much different.
This is of course because Han Cheng, the divine son of the Qingque tribe, gave the order.
The people in the tribe were already familiar with the previous waterways. They knew the depths and the places suitable for boating.
But the water going down was not familiar at all.
Although there is more and more water in the river all the way down, and the river becomes wider and wider, logically speaking, it is basically possible to sail safely.
But for safety reasons, Han Cheng still ordered the ship to slow down and sail forward carefully.
When setting off from the Fire Tribe, the big ship was only half-sailed.
Now under Han Cheng's order, the sails of the ship actually dropped a lot, and accordingly the speed of the ship also dropped a lot.
That's not all.
Han Cheng, the divine son of the Qingque tribe, was still standing on the bow of the boat at this time, holding an umbrella and looking at the vast water ahead.
The people on the ship naturally knew that the Son of God was doing it for safety reasons, so they acted with such caution.
Even so, while the people on the boat expressed their understanding in their hearts, they were somewhat indifferent to the overly careful behavior of the Son of God.
Because they all already understand that as they go down, there will only be more and more water in the river, and the river will become deeper and deeper.
The river is becoming more and more suitable for boating.
Even if the road ahead is an untravelled waterway, there is no need to be as careful as now.
However, Han Cheng didn't pay much attention to these, and still let the people on the ship act according to his orders.
Even after walking forward for two days at this speed, Shenzi became more cautious.
He asked people to lower two boats that looked like lifeboats from the Qingque, and then asked some people who were familiar with the water to drive these two boats and set off ahead along the river.
When the two small boats were about to reach the end of the field of vision, after confirming that the distance they had traveled and that the water in front of them was safe and that there were no special circumstances, they waved the red flag vigorously towards the large ship behind them.
The Qingque, which was moving forward at a very low speed behind, began to accelerate and headed forward after receiving the message of safety.
And when they sail all the way and are about to approach the two exploring ships, they will slow down again and wait quietly for the boat to go away. When the safety message is heard again from the boat, they will start again.
Accelerate forward, and so on.
Naturally, the speed of traveling at this speed is not much faster.
At the end of the day, I only walked more than thirty miles.
Compared with before arriving at the Fire Tribe, it was much different.
"Son of God, what are you worried about?"
After marching like this for two days, someone finally asked Han Cheng uncontrollably.
This person is none other than Xiong Youpi, the captain of the Qingque Marine Corps.
"The further down you go, the wider the river surface becomes and the water flow becomes more stable..."
Han Cheng's mood was not very beautiful.
In fact, his bad mood was no longer just today, but lasted for several days in a row.
The reason why this happened was that while he was traveling, he suddenly remembered something.
This thing is the spout of the pot!
As the saying goes, a thousand miles of Yellow River can be harvested in one pot. Han Cheng, the famous name of Hukou Waterfall, has heard about it.
It was just that he didn't think deeply about it before. After leaving the Fire Tribe and heading east, Han Cheng finally connected this famous scenic spot in later generations with what they were doing.
Based on what he has discovered, Han Cheng can basically determine the location of his tribe.
Then it is obvious that the river beneath him and others, which is fed by the rivers in the tribe, is most likely the river that is world-famous and engraved in the bones - the Yellow River!
Although the river is not yellow at all now.
At least what Han Cheng has seen so far is not pornographic at all.
But this could not eliminate Han Cheng's worries.
The Yellow River, which is thousands of miles away, is harvested in just one pot. Such a magnificent sight, if you only look at it from an appreciation point of view, it is indeed very spectacular and extremely shocking.
But Han Cheng is not a person who just goes out for fun.
The biggest purpose of his trip was to experience firsthand the performance of the tribe's sailboats and the tribe's people's ability to control the sailboats, while also exploring the waterway.
Now, he took his people and took a boat on the big river and went down the river.
This waterfall has a huge gap and will become world-famous in later generations. It is very likely that it is right in front of you.
Under such circumstances, it would be strange for Han Cheng to be in a wonderful mood!
If someone is not careful and a person and a boat rush down such a waterfall, it will be really uncomfortable.
"It's better to be careful in everything. We have never walked through this river before. Although the wind is smooth and the current is smooth, we still have to be careful.
It is true that the water gets bigger and more abundant as you go downstream. Under normal circumstances, there is certainly no danger in sailing.
But what should we do if we encounter some special terrain that causes the river channel to suddenly narrow and the river bed to fall too far, forming a fault?
If we don't take precautions and deal with it carefully, won't our ship be thrown overboard?
You must know that if the river suddenly narrows and the drop here becomes larger, the water flow speed will start to accelerate greatly. In this case, it is particularly important to control the boat and let the boat go upstream to escape from such a dangerous area.
difficulty.
If we encounter such a situation, let alone the boat, even those of us on the boat will not be left behind."
Faced with Xiong Youpi's inquiry, Han Cheng finally expressed his worries in a slightly changed form.
Listening to what Han Cheng said, Xiong Youpi didn't react at first.
However, as Han Cheng spoke, a scene he had seen in the mountains after a summer rain appeared in Xiong Youpi's mind.
The collected rainwater collects along the ravines and flows downward.
When encountering a cliff, the fast-flowing water will rush out some distance and then fall down, like a piece of white cloth unfolded and hanging there.
When Xiong Youpi saw such a scene in the past, he felt very shocked and had some different emotions in his heart because of such a scene.
But now, after replacing that stream with the wide river in front of me, and thinking about how so much river water would jump down like a stream, Xiong Youpi's heart suddenly clenched, and he couldn't bear it.
I shivered.
Especially after adding the large sailing ship that he and others were riding on to this picture, Xiong Youpi's complexion even turned a little pale!
There are still many differences between people on a boat and on land.
On land, no matter what situation we encounter, Bear Skin can always do something.
But when it comes to the situation he just imagined, Xiong Youpi really has no choice but to leave everything to that mysterious fate...
"God, Son of God..."
It took a while for Xiong Youpi to come back to his senses.
Looking at Han Cheng, he wanted to speak.
But before speaking, he couldn't help but swallow.
After he opened his mouth, he called out "Son of God", and then he didn't know what to say.
"Don't worry, this situation can be avoided. As long as we are careful, even if there is such a presence in the front, we can successfully avoid it.
It's just a matter of walking slower.
But compared to the dire consequences that may arise, just walking slower seems insignificant."
Han Cheng saw that Xiong Youpi didn't know what to say for a while, so he spoke again.
This time, Xiong Youpi, who was still very confused and unconcerned before, immediately nodded solemnly after hearing this and did not dare to have any unnecessary thoughts.
Not only that, out of caution and fear, Xiong Youer listened, and after his own understanding and processing of what Han Cheng said to him, he said it to the people on the ship.
.
Xiong Youer himself was frightened by the situation Han Cheng said. With such a psychological effect, when he talked about this matter again, he would naturally make it more serious and scary.
Therefore, after such an operation, all the contempt in the hearts of the people on the ship disappeared completely, and everyone became extra cautious.
Han Cheng was naturally delighted to see such a scene...
Time passed as the Qingque sailed forward, and the terrain on both sides of the Taiwan Strait also became changing.
From initially being mostly rolling hills and flat land, it has now become mostly hills.
The flow of the large river, which has tended to be stable, has also accelerated a lot in these places.
Because of Han Cheng's narration, which was relayed by Xiong Youpi, a man who was accustomed to adding insult to injury, the people on the ship became more cautious.
If it is easy to walk on both sides of the river, let some people come to the shore and walk forward to explore the situation. If it is not easy to walk on both sides, let the people of the tribe go ahead in small boats to clear the way.
It's just that the people on the boat were extra careful, and it goes without saying that they wore life jackets.
For the sake of safety, a rope almost five hundred meters long was obtained, and one end was tied to the small boat, and the other end was tied to the big ship.
The people in the boat were unwinding the rope coiled into a plate while moving forward along the current.
After the rope was loosened, the distance between the small boat and the big ship was widened, and after it was confirmed that there were no problems ahead, the big ship started to move.
Doing so is responsible for the lives of the people on the pathfinding boat ahead.
If they encounter strong currents ahead and lose control of the boat for a while, with this rope and the big boat behind them, they will not be in any danger.
Of course, this is just the beginning. After traveling more, people will stop doing this.
Instead, the small boat tied with a rope moved slowly five hundred meters in front of the big ship, and the big ship slowly followed behind.
In this way, it can not only leave a relatively safe distance and reaction time for the large ship behind, but also ensure the safety of the small ship in front to the greatest extent.
And in this way, you can save as little time as possible.
But don’t have a spout. I hope it’s so long ago that the spout hasn’t appeared yet!
On the sailboat that was moving forward, Han Cheng held the railing with his hands and looked ahead, thinking this in his heart...
