Chapter 37 Chapter 49 Deep South China Sea Reefs and Islands Part 2
“Ahhh it’s the sea!!!”
"Wow!"
“The sea is salty!!!”
"Wuhu——!"
All of the above shouts were made by Pomo alone.
Ni Lan looked at Pomo and smiled happily with a "kind and gentle" look. Puis rubbed his forehead helplessly when he noticed the friendly looks from other crew members, but his eyes were also full of ease and joy.
However, when Pomo stood on the edge of the boat, Puis pulled him back hard and he fell.
"Oh, Es, I don't want to jump, I just want to watch!"
The young man stood up flexibly and explained with a little grievance.
"Dangerous actions prohibited."
This matter is non-negotiable.
Although the weather was clear and the waves were not strong, this was the ocean after all. Who knew if strange waves would hit us the next moment?
Puis didn't want to go into the sea to pick him up.
Pomo let out an "Ah" with some regret, but this did not affect his mood. Instead, he continued to face the sea breeze and make excited sounds like a monkey.
"Hahaha, is this your first time in Shennan?"
A burly man came up to them. He was wearing a captain's white uniform. His brown mustache and captain's hat made him very recognizable. His dark brown skin and blue eyes showed that he was a native of Shenzhen.
However, the ancestors of the Pu family were born in the northern desert before coming to Shennan. No matter how much they were exposed to the sun, generation after generation they never got a tan, so Puis's skin was still fair, so the captain naturally could not recognize him.
"Captain McCaul, thank you for giving us a ride."
"You're welcome. I'm just helping out on the way."
Maika smiled brightly and waved his hand to tell them not to worry about it. The children of Poseidon are always willing to help others, especially for such a small matter.
The Shennanhai Reef Archipelago consists of five large islands and thousands of affiliated islands of varying sizes.
There are official ship routes from the land to the five major islands, but to these affiliated islands, especially the unimportant ones, many are private.
The locals make their living from the sea, so they need boats. Rich people have enough money to buy boats, so if ordinary people come here, they can get a ride if they are lucky enough to meet a kind person, or they can meet a local who makes a living by ferrying people. If they are unlucky, they may be in danger.
They are the luckiest ones.
This time the mission was officially commissioned by the school. They were going to Shouyu Island to investigate the disappearance of the Illuminati clergy there.
Shouyu Island is the least noticeable of the affiliated islands and is very close to the uninhabited Far South, so there is no ferry from the land to it.
"Uncle, thank you so much! This is indeed my first time seeing the sea!" The boy was about to climb up the mast next to him excitedly, but when he saw Puis's disapproving look, he quickly said, "Uncle, I want to go up and take a look!"
Captain McCabe started laughing and agreed to Pomer's request, "Of course! You can see the magnificence of the ocean from up there! Go!"
"Oh hoo! Yeah—!"
Pomo started to climb up very skillfully and screamed with excitement.
Soon, he reached the top. The scenery here was truly incomparable to that below.
"Ess! Ni Lan! The wind here is so strong————"
Pomer waved to them.
“You guys come up and take a look too!!!”
Puis shook his head slightly in silence.
But Ni Lan agreed and went to climb the mast.
This is youth, Captain McCabe started laughing again, he really likes to laugh.
After he finished laughing, he lit a cigarette and pointed at the two people in the sky, "Why don't you go and see the sea with them? It's really beautiful."
Puis smiled and shook his head, "I was born in the Deep South, so I don't need to."
Maika was a little surprised. "I mean, you seem to be familiar with all this. It turns out you are also the child of the sea god."
"Ez! Look at us!"
Pomo took Ni Lan and started waving again.
"Ni Lan, you call him too!"
Then he encouraged the young man beside him.
"......"
Ni Lan's smile froze. He was not used to doing this kind of thing, but Bomo's expression was full of anticipation.
"It's very simple! There's only the sea here anyway!"
The sea listens to everything and embraces everything.
Pomo put his hands to his mouth and started to howl again.
Ni Lan couldn't count how many times he was infected by Bomo's enthusiasm. He blinked and put his hands to his mouth, "Is——!"
Puyis didn't expect Ni Lan to really call him. Pomo wouldn't mind if he responded or not, but if it was Ni Lan...
"Be careful, everyone! Don't fall!"
Puis responded.
"Oh! I know!" Pomo had half of his body sticking out of the observation deck.
Captain Maca exhaled smoke and happily talked about his family's affairs.
"My daughter is also a student at Lanster School of Supernatural Powers. I recognized your school uniform."
No wonder they were willing to ride with him, Puis thought.
"Your daughter must be an exceptional person."
The man's laughter suddenly became guilty. He coughed twice and said, "Actually, my daughter didn't graduate successfully last year, but she will always be an excellent daughter in my heart!"
There are many people who fail to graduate. After all, Lanster Academy for Special Abilities is very strict. As long as you are not expelled, you are considered a successful person.
Puys didn't think much of it. "Grade is not everything. With a father like you, you are definitely an excellent person, regardless of whether you have graduated or not."
Captain McCarty looked at the boy in surprise. His words sounded like a compliment, but the boy said it very seriously. Considering his age and his ability to judge people, he was very sincere.
"Hahaha, thank you!"
“Ahhhh——”
Suddenly, Pomo's scream came from the sky, and Puis's premonition came true.
Fortunately, Ni Lan grabbed his legs and Bo Mo did not fall.
Puis took a deep breath, his expression showing a bit of gritted teeth.
"Are you okay?"
Pomo gave him a thumbs up, "So exciting!!!"
And Ni Lan who held onto Bo Mo tightly to prevent him from falling:...
Puys, who heard his stimulating speech below: ...
"I can't hold on any longer, Amo, come up quickly."
——
After coming down from the mast, Puis hit Pomo hard on the head.
"I told you to be careful!"
"Oh, I was wrong, but at that height I would be fine even if I fell."
Good, I admit my mistake, but I was right, Puys felt his blood pressure rising.
The best way to deal with this situation is to use "punishment" to break Pomo's fantasy.
"You are not allowed to climb the mast anymore. Stay on the deck."
"Hey! I'll be more careful next time!!!"
"There won't be a next time."
"Ahhhh Ess!!! I was so wrong!!!"
They would have to stay on the ship for nearly a week before reaching Shouyu Island, and before that they would just enjoy life on the ship.
Captain Macka's ship is a fishing boat, and he and more than a dozen of his brothers make a living by fishing.
The Deep South is rich in resources, and fishing is not a difficult task. However, to support such a large family, more precious fish are needed, so Captain McCaul prefers to go to a place a little further south, and this trip is indeed on the way.
On the first day, when they first saw the sea, the three of them were very excited.
By the next day, Bo Mo and Ni Lan were suffering from seasickness to varying degrees.
Pomo was strong and could at least walk, but he felt a little dizzy. But Ni Lan vomited everything he ate.
The seasickness medicine that Puis had prepared for Ni Lan didn't have much effect.
So Ni Lan could only lie down.
On the third day, Ni Lan had a fever.
His physical condition is indeed not as good as the other two.
Captain McCarty provided a medical kit, which fortunately contained antipyretics, and Ni Lan's condition improved a lot that night.
It was not until the fourth day that Ni Lan was finally able to eat something.
"Ni Lan! The captain made shrimp porridge specially for you today!"
At dinner time, the two of them came to see him together.
Ni Lang just woke up from an illusory dream. After waking up, his headache was gone and he was no longer dizzy, so he was finally able to think about what had happened.
Finally, this day has come.
"This shrimp was just caught by Puisi! It seems to be called something like Deep Sea Shrimp with a Special Fragrance!"
Puis gave him a cushion and said, "Captain McCaul said there will be a storm tomorrow. What do you think?"
Ni Lan sat up. "I feel much better. Thank you."
"Uncle Maca also said that this shrimp is particularly delicious and smells like a strange flower, which is where its name comes from."
Ni Lan took the porridge. The shrimps in the porridge were golden yellow, but he didn't smell any strange floral fragrance.
"It smells really good. Thank you."
"The storm will start in the middle of the night, and the shaking will be very severe. If you feel any discomfort, tell us immediately."
The three of them lived in the same cabin. After all, it was a ship traveling on the same route, and there were no comfortable and soft bedrooms.
Ni Lan nodded and finished the shrimp porridge bit by bit.
"Have you had dinner yet?"
"Eat it! Are you dreaming again? I heard you say something but I couldn't hear it clearly."
Pomo put the bowl aside for him and then smelled it curiously.
Ni Lan blinked, "Sorry, I don't quite remember."
"It's normal that you can't remember. I went fishing today, but I didn't catch any fish. Other crew members said this is called empty arms."
"Because you are too impatient. You want to hang up in less than three minutes." Puyis came over and took him away. "Ni Lan, you should have a good rest. I will call you later when it's time to take medicine. Bomo, please don't disturb Ni Lan."
Bo Mo spread his hands, "Is this also considered disturbing? I just don't want Ni Lan to be so bored!"
But Puis didn't listen to him. Except for the three minutes he would take to reel in the line while fishing, Pomo would also look at Ni Lan every three minutes and find things to say.
Ni Lan looked at them with a smile, "I feel much better now. Besides, I don't want to sleep any more after sleeping for so long."
So the boy who was being dragged looked up at his friend, and his friend let him go helplessly.
Pomo sat back down. "I went fishing with other crew members yesterday morning. We were all so good! Uncle Maca was able to use the lights to determine the location of the fish!"
