Half an hour later, the off-road vehicle that had been running rampantly on the street for a while finally made a "squeak" sound and stopped in front of a house on the beach in the northernmost part of the county.
After casually getting rid of the zombies wandering around, Lin Cheng raised his head and glanced at the slightly dilapidated red brick house in front of him, then frowned, turned to Chen Feiyu and asked: "Is this the place where you said there is a ferry?"
Hearing Lin Cheng's question, Chen Feiyu, who was holding on to the wall while vomiting, took a breath and replied in a very weak tone: "No...that's right! Just wait a moment..."
As he spoke, he opened a bottle of mineral water and rinsed his mouth, then took out a bunch of keys from his waist, opened the door in front of him and walked in.
"Come in! This is the residence where my master and I live. My master went to see the Jade Emperor before the end of the world, so my girlfriend and I are the only ones living here."
After Lin Cheng and his party entered the house, Chen Feiyu closed the door and then explained to them.
"What does your master do?"
Looking around the room, Lin Cheng asked him casually.
After hearing this, Chen Feiyu took a sip of water and explained: "In our Zhenjiang County, at least seven or eight out of ten people are making a living at sea! The same goes for my master. He has a small passenger ship and often takes guests to the south.
Zhudao, and due to the lax management in the county, many people living on the beach have built private small piers for ferry business. Of course my master's old fried dough sticks are no exception, so I dare to say that I will help you find it.
Boat!"
After saying that, feeling relieved, Chen Feiyu stood up from the sofa, opened a small door leading to the back of the house, and said to Lin Cheng: "Let's go, I will take you to see the boat."
Following Chen Feiyu, Lin Cheng and his party slowly walked out of the small door. Then they saw a dilapidated pier made of cement appearing behind the house. Next to the pier, a narrow path led directly to the road in front of the house, only blocked by a door.
The rusty iron gate is blocked, and it seems that it should be used to let passengers boarding the ship pass.
On the left side of the pier, a slightly dilapidated passenger ship was moored quietly on the sea.
This is indeed a small passenger ship with a capacity of only forty passengers. The deck does have two floors, but the upper and lower floors combined do not seem to exceed an area of 20 square meters.
At the bow of the ship, a tattered tire hung there, now tightly against the shore. Two thick hemp ropes were tied to the pillars of the pier to prevent the passenger ship from slipping away, and three words written in red paint
The name "Seagull" is written very conspicuously on the bottom of the side of the ship, making it difficult for people to miss it.
After seeing this small passenger ship, Lin Cheng couldn't help but frown. He felt that it was not very reliable to cross the sea with this thing in front of him.
Thinking of this, Lin Cheng quickly stopped Chen Feiyu, who wanted to take them on the boat for a visit, and asked directly: "Let me ask you a question, besides this boat, can you find a bigger boat? Seriously, this is the only one that can do it.
If it’s a boat, I feel it’s difficult to safely cross the Nanzhu Strait!”
Hearing this, Chen Feiyu couldn't help but smile bitterly, "If I could find a big ship, I would have taken you there! When people in the county fled in large numbers, almost all the usable ships were taken away. This ship is going to
If they hadn’t forgotten it, they would have probably dragged it away long ago!”
"Depend on!"
Hearing Chen Feiyu's explanation, Lin Cheng couldn't help but cursed secretly, but he could only shake his head and accept his fate. Then he took You Shan and the others on board the ship and followed Chen Feiyu to visit.
"This 'Seagull' was bought by my master with the savings he had worked hard for half his life, so even though it looks a little shabby on the outside, in fact, the performance has been well maintained by his old man! The master passed this ship on before he left.
It was given to me. Although the doomsday came not long after, fortunately our county has a small population and the scale of the zombie outbreak is not too scary. Apart from going out to find food every day, I spend the rest of my time maintaining the ship, so
You don’t have to worry about performance at all, it will never let you down!”
Standing in the cockpit, Chen Feiyu tinkered with the dazzling buttons and switches around him while telling Lin Cheng the story of the ship with great nostalgia.
"That's good."
Hearing Chen Feiyu's assurance, Lin Cheng nodded, "Can this ship be sailed now?"
"certainly!"
Hearing this, Chen Feiyu smiled confidently, pressed a few switches, and then took hold of the steering wheel, preparing to go out to sea for testing and show it to Lin Cheng.
Unexpectedly, after the passenger ship’s engine made two “chunk” sounds, it suddenly became silent!
Seeing this, Lin Cheng couldn't help but frown, and looked at Chen Feiyu who was in embarrassment with a puzzled face.
"Uh... that... it's an old problem! I forgot to tell you before. Although the performance of this ship is well maintained, there is an old problem that has never been fixed. Please wait for me."
Saying that, Chen Feiyu laughed twice, quickly ran out of the cockpit, walked to the stern of the ship, opened the movable deck on the ground and jumped in.
"Dang Dang Dang..."
Following several loud knocking sounds, the passenger ship's engine finally started "chugging" again. Lin Cheng listened for a long time before he was sure that the engine would not belch again this time.
Chen Feiyu also waited for the engine to rotate normally for a while before climbing out of the bottom compartment sweating profusely. At this time, his whole body was covered with black engine oil, and he looked very embarrassed.
Seeing him come out, Lin Cheng sighed, threw a towel for him to wipe his hands, and asked: "What went wrong? Besides this problem, how do the bunch of buttons in the cockpit operate?
of?"
"Hey... I can't explain! And it's not just me. Even if my master comes back to life, he can't explain clearly!"
After saying that, Chen Feiyu took the cigarette handed over by Lin Cheng and lit it with a "click", "This is actually a second-hand ship. When I bought it, it had a lot of problems. I relied on my master to repair it bit by bit.
Yes, I didn’t expect that the person who sold the boat was so unkind. He didn’t inform us of problems like the engine in advance even if there were many problems. He waited until my master fixed the other minor problems one by one.
Discovering that the engine has such hidden dangers that are difficult to solve, I really need to be on guard..."
Hearing this, Lin Cheng raised his forehead and felt that he was really unlucky today...
Seeing Lin Cheng's disappointed look, Chen Feiyu also felt very embarrassed. After smoking for a long time, he suddenly gritted his teeth, raised his head and said, "Well, this ship is really not easy to drive, but I am familiar with it after all.
I can solve all problems, and... although this ship is not big, it is still a passenger ship. It is easy for a novice like you to make mistakes when it comes to driving. I... I will send the Buddha to heaven and drive it myself.
