Chapter 522: Desert Island Whirlpool

After a full meal of pure seafood and a few mortal fishermen chatting, fully experiencing the simple and refreshing emotions between mortals, Yuan Dian immediately returned to the bow of the boat and sat there, while Xu Ke and the others took turns to rest.

Two days later, the fishing boats had moved away from the mainland, and there were more islands around, some of them were bare, and some of them had some sparse dwarf trees growing on them.

If there were no local fishermen to lead the team, facing so many islands, Yuan Dian really didn't know how to determine which one was the prisoner island.

At this time, Xu Ke, who was like a brother to Yuan Dian, stood beside him and motioned to the surrounding islands, large and small, and said to Yuan Dian: "Brother Yuan, this is the northern desert island group, and if you go to the northeast for an hour, it will be the prisoner island you are going to." ”

"Brother Yuan, please forgive me, my brother is really wondering, okay, what are you going to do on that island where there is no grass and no birds?"

Looking at Zhao Yong, who was frowning and asking, Yuan Dian smiled slightly, and then made up a white lie: "Brother Xu, my brother likes to study geography and record some topographical structures within Zhihua Country. ”

"So that's the reason?" Hearing Yuan Dian say this, Xu Ke's frowning brows stretched slightly, re-examined Yuan Dian, and then said with some chatter:

"Brother Yuan. That's what you say, that's really true. Among the northern desert island group, there are many desert islands. But there are more or less weeds and dwarf trees on it, but this prisoner island is special, it is full of rocks, there is really no grass, even the seabirds do not want to stay on it, and the bare is really a bit infiltrating. ”

"Even us fishermen, unless we're chasing some fish, don't stay on that island for a while, Prisoner Island. Prisoner Island, the one who escaped alive is a cage of trapped people, and the name given by the ancestors back then is really apt. ”

Hearing Xu Ke say this, Yuan Dian suddenly seemed to grasp something, and with a little surprise, he asked Xu Ke: "Brother Xu, you said that the Prisoner Island is a cage for trapped people, what does this mean?"

"Oh, nothing. It's that the shape of the Prisoner Island is very much like a cage, and there are some terrifying and weird legends, so the island was named Prisoner Island, I just thought about it. ”

"Terrifying and weird legends? Brother is also very interested in these legends, can you tell your brother?" Hearing Xu Ke say this, Yuan Dian suddenly felt that he had grasped something. Then he asked.

"Brother Yuan, you weirdos just like these weird things. Seeing the strong interest on Yuan Dian's face. After Xu Kefei said a thin sentence, he continued:

"According to the legend of the elders. In the sky above this prisoner's island, there are demons and monsters, which will appear on stormy nights, looking like huge wild beasts from afar, and there are also bursts of roars like lions, which come out at night to devour passing ships, and one by one, how terrifying it really must be. ”

"However, we younger generations don't believe this, at least since I was a child, I went out to sea with my father to fish, and I have also passed through Prisoner Island at night, and even stayed in this area on a stormy night, I have not encountered this incident, but I have only regarded these legends as an allusion to scare children. ”

"However, Brother Yuan, I advise you not to stay on that island for too long, just take a look, because after a long time, for some reason, we will all have a feeling of panic and panic, that feeling...... I really can't say, anyway, you don't want to stay on it for too long, check, check, keep a record, enrich your knowledge, and don't hinder you from publishing a book. ”

"Out of the book?" At this moment, Yuan Pawn was really a little surprised.

"Yes!, don't you people who like anecdotes and strange terrains see these just to have a record, and then summarize and accumulate them, gather them in one qiē, and use them in the future to publish books?"

"Yes, yes, it will be used to publish books in the future, and it will be used to publish books. Hearing Xu Ke say this, Yuan Dian was really speechless, so he could only follow the conversation.

At this moment, Yuan Dian was completely convinced that the big brother Xu Kexu in front of him was really a nosy and imaginative mortal, first thinking of himself as a mortal who was troubled by worldly things and couldn't think of it, and now he thought of himself as a traveler who was planning to publish a book, which really made him cry and laugh a little.

Just as the two were talking, Sun San, who was standing on the side holding the rudder, suddenly shouted: "Brother Xu, the desert island swirl, the desert island swirl." ”

"What fucking bad luck, how did you come across this weird current?"

"Brother Yuan, you go to the middle of the boat and sit down, don't worry. Hearing Sun San's shout, Xu Ke scolded angrily, and then said a word to Yuan Dian, and then shouted: "Drop the sail, drop the sail, row, to the west, row hard!"

Seeing Xu Ke, who took three steps and ran to the sail of the ship and quickly lowered the sail with everyone, and at the same time rowed towards the other mortals who rowed towards the west, Yuan Dian also frowned slightly.

He didn't know what the desert island swirl that Xu Ke was talking about, so he didn't move, but looked into the distance with everyone's anxious and slightly frightened expressions.

Less than a hundred feet ahead, the sea water between several deserted islands suddenly flowed in the shape of a whirlpool towards the direction where they were, and the whirlpool became larger and larger, and in the blink of an eye it had exceeded five zhang, and at the same time, a brackish sea breeze flowed past his face, and the plank under his feet began to shake.

"Brother Yuan, Brother Yuan, get to the center of the boat, hurry!" Seeing Yuan Dian standing on the bow of the boat looking into the distance, Xu Ke shouted anxiously.

After walking a few steps, Yuan Dian appeared in front of Xu Ke, looked at the swirl in front of him, and asked casually: "Brother Xu, we should go east, even if the whirlpool is a little dangerous, it shouldn't be enough to threaten our ship!"

"Oh, my brother, this is a whirlwind unique to the northern desert islands, and it gets bigger and bigger, and it is mixed with a powerful tornado, so you sit in the middle of the fishing boats and don't move. ”

"Paddle, brothers, if you don't want to die in the belly of the fish and row hard to the west, the whirlpool of the desert island will run to the east. ”

At this time, Xu Ke obviously didn't have much time to deal with Yuan Dian, and after a quick explanation, he urged everyone not to order the fishing boat to drive towards the west.

And when he looked at the rotating whirlpool again, Yuan Dian also frowned, the whirlpool at this time had expanded to more than ten zhang, and a faintly visible tornado had formed above, moving in an easterly direction.

Although he doesn't know how this so-called desert island whirlpool was formed, Yuan Dian can clearly deduce that Xu Ke's statement is correct, if he can't avoid this whirlpool with all his might, the fishing boat is estimated to be smashed and swallowed by the whirlpool, and they will really be buried in the belly of the fish.

The fishing boat under their feet was already jolting rapidly, and Xu Ke and they were already staring at each other, desperately sliding the oars towards the west, looking at the positions of the two sides, Yuan Dian estimated the time, if the whirlpool moved in such a direction and speed, they could avoid it.

But at this moment, blocked by a small island and reef in front of him, the direction of the swirl changed, although it was still moving in the easterly direction, it drew an arc and ran in the direction where Yuan Dian and the others were taking the fishing boat.

"Damn, damn it, I burned incense when I went to sea!" Xu Ke, who had been observing the direction of the swirling flow, saw such a scene, his face changed greatly, he scolded angrily, pointed to a small island and reef more than ten zhang away, turned to Yuan Dian and shouted:

"Brother Yuan, we are in big trouble this time, jump into the sea and swim to that island and reef, as long as we land on that island and reef, we may have a glimmer of life, Brother Yuan...... Yuan...... Ahh......h

At this moment, the six people on the boat all stopped paddling, and they all stood up and were about to jump into the sea to swim towards an island and reef not far away, and at this time, Xu Ke was also shouting to remind Yuan Dian, but when he was shouting, he saw that Yuan Dian's feet were already a foot away from the plank, and he stopped there in the air, his eyes couldn't help but suddenly widen, and his face was also with a look of horror.

"Brother Xu, everyone, don't worry, lie on the boat, Yuan will help you, and we will escape the threat of this whirlwind together. ”

In the face of such a crisis, Yuan Dian can deal with it calmly, but he now has the ability to escape here with Xu Ke and others, after smiling and shouting, his figure flashed, Yuan Dian appeared in the stern, put his hands on the fishing boat, and the mana around his body operated, and the fishing boat immediately pressed against the sea like an arrow off the string, galloping forward.

"Plop. With a sound, at the moment when the fishing boat was moving rapidly, Xu Ke and the others were all obediently lying on the plank, and the six of them all looked at each other, all kinds of faces.

With a huge surprise, Sun San and the others shouted loudly at Xu Ke: "Brother Xu, Brother Xu, an immortal, that Brother Yuan is an immortal!"

"What to shout, what to shout, Lao Tzu knows, after escaping this difficulty, you must treat Brother Yuan well, bah, it is Yuan Xianchang, speak to Lao Tzu politely, do you hear it. At this time, Xu Ke was also extremely excited, and after shouting to everyone, he sighed again and again in his heart: "Did I just say it? Before I went to sea, I burned incense and worshiped the Buddha, and I drew a lot." ”

Although the whirlwind was diverted halfway through, and the speed was also extremely fast, but after being pushed by Yuan Dian, the fishing boat was obviously faster, and by the time the whirlwind rushed to where they were, the fishing boat had already flown several miles away from the sea, far away from this danger.
