Chapter 54 Torrent
Rapid flow
Da Jinya was seasick and had already vomited so much that he could not move with the cables on the boat. The boat seemed to be blocked by something in the river. Although the river water was turbulent, the boat could not drive out.
Under the violent impact, the boat might overturn at any time. I thought of the bow of the boat to see what was in the river, but the fat man and I had drunk a little too much by the river before. At this time, the alcohol was rising and I couldn't feel afraid. It was just like I had stepped on a cotton cover under my feet, and the hull was tilted. I took my legs for a long time and didn't walk out.
At this time, the ship was hit by the water in the river, and the hull was knocked horizontally. The fat man was thrown across the deck and supported his body on the strings of the boat. This made the fat man's drunkenness wake up halfway. Just as he turned his head to look into the river, the hull shook again and threw the fat man back. Fortunately, it was a mechanical ship. If it were a wooden ship, it would fall apart if it was just hit twice.
I held the cable and the big gold teeth tightly and took the time to ask the fat man, what is in the river? Have you seen it clearly?
The fat man cursed and said, "Fuck his grandma, I didn't see it very clearly. It was as big as a truck, like a big old turtle."
No matter what the hell is in the river, if you let it hit a few fucking times, the boat will overturn. I shouted to the fat man: "Search guy, **** my mother!"
The fat man shouted, "You haven't sobered yet? How can you do it?"
I was indeed a little confused and kept trying to find a submachine gun. I realized that I didn't bring any weapons in the mainland this time.
The rain was getting heavy in the sky, and my body was soaked. I felt the folding engineer shovel hanging on my waist, and shouted to the fat man: "Take the engineer shovel, no matter whether it is a turtle or a fish, I will chop it up."
The fat man was not as clear as before I woke up, and his mind was still clear. He knew that he had to take some protective measures. He grabbed the cable and wrapped it around my waist twice. My alcohol was also 80% gone. He took advantage of this time that the hull was a little stable, and he rushed to the port side that was hit in two steps, poked his head out of his head and looked into the river.
At this time, it was already dark and it was raining heavily. The river was pitch black. With the lightning light in the dark clouds, I could vaguely see something like a hill in the turbid river water, half of which was exposed to the water surface, most of which were hidden in the river, with limited visibility and no one could see what it was. I saw that thing, and I felt like an animal in the water. It was hard to tell whether it was a fish or a turtle.
The huge thing in the river was hitting our hull against the current. I grabbed the cables on the boat tightly and saw that the thing was swimming close. Then I swung the engineer shovel and cut it down, but the engineer shovel was too short to hit.
As the hull was hit again, I bounced out of the boat. The engineer shoveled his hands and flew into the river. Thanks to the fat man pulling the rope, I didn't fall into the river with the engineer shovel.
This time, I woke up all my wine, and I was sweating all over my body, my mind became much clearer. The hull was shaking, and I couldn't stand. I hit the boss of the ship that had originally shrunk into a ball. I took the opportunity to say to the boss of the ship: "Now the hull is horizontal, so try to make the ship go around, otherwise your son will not be able to survive."
The boss of the ship was a very superstitious person. He insisted that the "thing" in the river was the real body of Grandpa River God. He originally planned to close his eyes and wait for death. When I mentioned his son, the boss of the ship remembered that his son was still in the cabin. Anyway, he died, so he fought for his life for his son. He struggled to get up and wanted to rush back to the cabin to take the helm.
The boss of the boat staggered and just stood up, suddenly pointed at the river and shouted: "No, I'm here again!"
I looked in the direction of his finger, and now I was caught by the spotlight on the boat. I saw it clearly. A dark green thing appeared and disappeared in the river. Sometimes the exposed part was the size of a Liberation Truck, and was spinning around the boat, wanting to knock the boat over.
At this time, I didn't have time to take a closer look. I pushed the boss of the boat and pushed him into the steering room. When the door opened, I saw a bundle of thin steel pipes in the machine parts contained in the ship warehouse.
At that time, I didn't know where the force came from. I asked the fat man to pull out a few steel pipes and use them as javelins. I threw them out one after another at the object in the river.
In the darkness, it is impossible to distinguish the hit rate and killing effect. However, after throwing more than a dozen steel pipes, the monster was no longer found, and I thought it was driven away.
The rain in the sky gradually became lighter and calm for a moment. Everyone on the boat survived, their faces were pale, and the Big Gold Tooth wrapped itself around the deck with a cable, and was tortured to death by the ups and downs of the hull. Fortunately, they didn't have asthma, and they bared the big gold Tooth and called the Bodhisattva for blessing.
Some things cannot be considered as rude, so I have to think about them as much as possible. Although the clothes on my body are soaked, fortunately, because it has been raining, I put money and ID in a waterproof travel bag in advance.
Although the situation just now was urgent and suddenly, Da Jinya kept holding the travel bag in his hand and fell into the river. This is the best thing for those who do business, who sacrificed their lives and money. The sky fell and they also kept their wallet firmly.
I told Da Jinya that when I arrived at the place later, I quickly found a hotel to take a hot bath, otherwise I would have to get sick.
The boss's son broke his head in the boat warehouse, and he was bleeding profusely. He had to be taken to the hospital immediately. Not far ahead was Gutian County, preparing to dock there. I looked up and saw that there were indeed some scattered lights in the dark and gloomy distance. There was the small Gutian County we were going to.
However, the situation on the ship had just stabilized, and suddenly the hull was hit by a huge force again. This time the power was greater than the previous few times, and it happened suddenly. We couldn't defend ourselves and fell to the ground.
The hull was tilted, and the fat man reached out and grabbed the cable. Big Jinya and I hugged his belt and thighs respectively. The fat man shouted: "Don't...don't pull my pants..."
Before I finished speaking, the hull leaned to the other side. I wanted to get the steel pipe in the cabin, but the hull was shaking very hard and couldn't get up at all. Not to mention seeing the surrounding situation clearly, it was a miracle that my head was not knocked out.
The hull was rising and falling in the rolling turbid current, and the deck and ship warehouse were filled with water. Everyone's clothes were wet, and they all became chickens.
In order to send his son to the hospital for emergency treatment, the boss of the ship no longer cared about what kind of river god he was or the ancestor of the Dragon King, so he tried his best to drive the ship to the dock in Gutian County.
The Yellow River is bent by nine curves and eighteen curves. After passing the gantry, it is bent one after another. There is a relatively stable river bend near the ancient field. As soon as the boat turns into the bend, it chases the things we don’t put in the river and stops moving.
The lights in the front were getting brighter and brighter. The boat owner parked the boat next to the dock. We stepped on the ground and was shocked. The fat man took out the money and paid more to the boat owner at the price he had agreed to. The boat owner was familiar with the workers on the dock. He asked a few people to help and hurriedly sent his son to the hospital in the county.
The history of ancient fields can be traced back to the Shang Dynasty. The city walls that have been preserved to this day are products of the Ming Dynasty. Although this place has a long history, it is not very famous. The county town is also small in scale, and there are few outsiders.
Big Gold Ya, Fatty, and I were like three chickens. We asked someone for a path and found a guesthouse nearby. It was a coincidence when we went there. This guesthouse only provides one hour of hot water shower every day, and there was only half an hour left.
After taking a hot shower, the three of us were considered to be healthy. We asked the waiter at the guesthouse if there was anything to eat? The waiter said there were only noodles, so we ordered a few bowls of noodles and added more peppers, which made us sweat.
While eating half of the meal, the old man in charge of cooking noodles in the guesthouse canteen came over to talk to me and asked if we were from Beijing.
When I heard that the old man's accent didn't look like a native of the northwest, I talked to him casually. The old man's surname is Liu, his hometown is in Tongxian County, Beijing, and he has lived in Gutian for decades.
Lao Liu asked us why we were so embarrassed, as if we had just caught it from the pot.
I told me about our experience in the Yellow River. What exactly is there in this river? Why is it so powerful? I haven’t seen clearly whether it is a fish or a turtle, or it is still another animal. I have never heard of such a big thing in the Yellow River. Thanks to the strong small boat, if it were a wooden boat, we might have to fall into the water and pour yellow soup.
Old Liu said, "I have seen this before. The boatman said that this is the river god. Isn't this water big this year? As soon as the water rises, there are many strange things in the river. I have lived by the Yellow River for half my life. I was not liberated at that time. I was less than fifteen years old. I saw this thing with my own eyes. Someone once caught a living one. If you really want to see it, I will tell you a place where you can go and have a chance."
