Chapter 420 Storm. Preparation for the Voyage
When the rain stopped, Chu An retracted the glass house into space. Li Qing didn't drink. He had set a rule for his subordinates that drinking was not allowed on the boat, and he had to abide by it.
Chu An put away the tables, chairs and benches, yawned, looked at the "masterpiece" of the night and the countless paper balls on the deck, the corners of his mouth twitching constantly, what kind of weird thing was this.
Gu Ye held back his laughter and said he could revise it for her.
"I'm going back to sleep." Chu An no longer cared about Old Chu. Once this man got into the mood, he had to paint until he was satisfied.
"I'll let Huabi come out to look after Uncle Chu. You can go back and have a rest." Li Qing said.
It was already four o'clock in the morning, and although the sky was still dim, one could feel a special quietness and mystery.
Chu An took back Zi Liu and turned to walk into the cabin. Gu Ye said hello to Li Qing and went back to rest.
The two of them went back to their rooms. Chu An took out some medicated oil and rubbed it on his solar plexus. Although he was in good condition now, he still had to prepare for a rainy day.
She used her mental power to connect the space and confirmed the longitude and latitude of Uncle Lian's cruise ship with Shen Xun. This time she received a positive reply, but there were seven suspected locations, the closest of which was 800 nautical miles away from them, and it would take a week to travel normally.
"Will there be anyone guarding the ship?" Chu An asked.
"If it wasn't the end of the world, there would definitely be, but... everything now cannot be viewed according to common sense." Shen Xun replied.
"Would it be safer if I went alone?"
"That's natural, but will they agree?"
Chu An thought about it and felt that Lao Chu and Li Qing would probably agree, but Gu Ye might not. He was not worried about his own safety, but wanted to be with her.
Thinking of this, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
No matter what the situation, there is someone who will accompany you without hesitation.
For example, you suddenly want to watch a midnight movie, suddenly want to go to the suburbs to set off fireworks, suddenly want to ride a Ferris wheel, suddenly want to go to a concert, all without any plans, or you bring it up at an inappropriate time, but you know that person will accompany you and will indulge any of your willfulness.
She is lucky to have Gu Ye!
After Chu An finished communicating with Shen Xun, he took a short rest and did not enter the space.
Half an hour passed unknowingly. She stretched and stood up to look for Li Qing.
The actual fishing range of the fishing boats has exceeded the territorial waters, but it has not gone too far. The captain and the people in the fishing village are familiar with this place and can ensure everyone's safety.
Last night’s storm disrupted the fishing route, and the fishing spots needed to be re-determined. Of course, these were things that professionals needed to consider, and Li Qing was just responsible for nodding.
When Chu An found him, he had just nodded and praised the captain and Bao Jin for their business.
"Cough cough..." Chu An coughed twice and successfully rescued Li Qing.
She took Li Qing away and briefly described the plan.
Li Qing immediately heard the hidden meaning, "You want to separate from us?"
"We'll be separated temporarily, but not so soon." Mainly because he was afraid they would encounter another storm. "It will take about three months. If everything goes well, I can catch up with you back to City C."
Li Qing only has the right to use the production line for three months, and he plans to work the full three months. Although he has not yet decided where to build the base, he will always have to go back to City C, where Gangzi and Duoduo are.
"Xiao An, although I know your ability, this is at sea after all. Humans are too small in front of the sea. I hope you will think about it carefully."
"No need to worry about it, I will be fine." Chu An smiled, "We survived the strong storm yesterday."
Li Qing thought of the vine that protected him, and his pupils dilated instantly, "Xiao An, what on earth is that? Will it hurt you?"
"It's a plant in space. It can't harm me."
"That's good." He was particularly afraid that Xiao An would be controlled by some creature, just like in the movies.
Chu An smiled lightly, "The reason why I didn't tell you too much is not because I deliberately concealed my ability, but because I was afraid of scaring you. After all, I can't explain what happened to me, and I'm also afraid that one day I will be caught as a monster and sliced into pieces for research."
"I will fight anyone who dares to catch you to death." Li Qing said hurriedly, "You will always be my sister."
"Well, you are my brother too, so you can let me go this time without any worries."
"Ah." Li Qing sighed, "If I were alone, I would really like to go with you."
As he spoke, Chu An felt a glimmer of light out of the corner of his eye.
She hurriedly stood up and looked out the window. A faint light appeared on the eastern horizon, like a golden sickle cutting through the gray sky.
It is the radiance of the sun!
It gradually became brighter and brighter. Soon, a red sun rose slowly from the horizon, illuminating the entire sea.
The sun shines on the sea, making the waves sparkle, as if the whole world is covered with a layer of gold.
The two heard someone outside exclaiming, obviously they had seen this beautiful scene.
Chu An couldn't wait to run onto the deck.
The sun rose higher and higher, and the sunlight passed through the clouds, dyeing the clouds into various colors, from red to orange, then to yellow and purple. The clouds in the sky seemed to be on fire, forming a beautiful picture with the sea and the sun.
At this moment, Chu An felt extremely peaceful, as if all the suffering had disappeared.
So beautiful!
More and more people came on the deck and everyone couldn't help but praise.
…
Where there is joy, there is sorrow. Although Shen Changyuan's ship put out the fire in time, it was still greatly affected and needed to return early.
Li Qing transferred the caught fish and shrimp to his boat and took them back.
This trip yielded a total of 7 tons of seafood, which was enough to serve as start-up capital.
Because of his efficiency, the shipping magnate specially gave him the right to use a seafood processing line for three months.
It depends on him how many finished products he can produce in these three months.
Li Qing asked Shen Changyuan to send the results back, hoping that he would stay to supervise the production.
Chu An stayed on the boat for another ten days, mainly because Lao Chu entered a state of trance and was constantly creating. He only rested for three or four hours a day, including eating and sleeping.
"Xiao An, why don't you leave Uncle Chu here? I will take good care of him." Li Qing suggested, mainly because he wanted her to go early and come back early. The weather at sea is ever-changing, and there might be a storm one day.
Chu An was still worried, so he accompanied Li Qing on the sea for a month, transporting nearly 500,000 tons of fish and shrimp. During this period, Koi's boat hit a reef and returned early.
She felt that the time was about right, so she asked Li Qing to go back to the territorial waters to catch some more fish and shrimp, so that he would feel at ease even if she was not around.
Lao Chu finally completed his paintings, twelve pieces of "Gifts from the Sea".
Although she didn't understand painting, she was one of the people who truly felt the storm that day.
Lao Chu's paintings seemed to bring her back to last night. Every lightning and every ripple were skillfully captured and presented by Lao Chu. People can directly feel the horror of the storm and the helplessness of being in the storm. Each painting is a visual feast of violent storms.
It is said that a camera can only reproduce 80% of real people or scenery, a mirror can reproduce 90%, but a painting can reproduce 100%.
The gift of the sea is 101%, absolutely soul-stirring.
