MTL - Konoha: Rebooting Life of a Medical Ninja-Chapter 3 death knell at sea
"Master Gu Ming, you said that this arm was chopped into pieces, but why does the wound look like it was bitten by some vicious fish?" Yi Zhicheng never liked to beat around the bush, so he asked directly.
"Ah... after so many years, you can still see how you got hurt?" Gu Ming was stunned for a moment.
"As long as you have been injured, there will be traces of injury. If I treat these scars on your body, I can guess how you got injured." Yi Zhicheng looked at the criss-crossing scars on Gu Ming's chest with greedy eyes.
When he just treated the severed hand, he only felt part of Gu Ming’s memories of when he used the sword. Although this kind of heavy sword technique with wide opening and closing is not bad, it is not what he wants. He wants some ninjutsu or Sealing.
"These? No, no, these are men's medals. When I was in the hot spring, I boasted to the girls. If you cure me, I will become a little boy who has never seen blood?" Gu Ming His big head with a beard all over his face shook.
"You can't be a badass with your face." Yi Zhicheng was a little helpless, it seemed that he could only treat the new injury: "You haven't said what kind of beast you were bitten by."
Gu Ming looked around vigilantly: "Stinky boy, I just told you because I saw you falling in love... Don't tell others that I was bitten by a mermaid!"
"Mermaid?" Yi Zhicheng pretended to be puzzled, but he didn't expect Gu Ming to be so sincere.
"Yes! That's right, it's the legendary mermaid with a human body and a fish tail! You are also a member of our Lucky Star. There is no place to stay, and our ship often does some sneaky things, such as selling some medicine, wine, meat, fruit, etc. to pirates, earning a little money to find a place to be happy, hehe...you know, Those dirty dogs will find a way to get something good!"
Gu Ming squeezed out a smirk with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and told the little secret that everyone on the ship knew without hesitation, and explained the fact that he was bitten off his wrist because he touched the mermaid's face out of curiosity.
"Well, do you still have contacts with pirates now...?" Yi Zhicheng tried to ask.
"Hey, Ah Cheng, don't misunderstand me. I have never done anything to be sorry for the country of the vortex. That is, the salary of our sea department is too low, and life at sea is really boring. Our life on the Fuxing is the most chic. Other captains are not as clever as me." Gu Ming was a little worried that Yi Zhicheng was an upright and honest man, and he didn't want to lose an excellent ship doctor.
"Lord Gu Ming misunderstood, I'm just curious about these pirates... We who are still in the hospital will steal some medicine and go home to make some plaster." Yi Zhicheng smiled.
"Hahaha... That's it, the pirates have been cleaned up by the Water Kingdom these years, and they are all hiding. It's not easy to do small business." Hearing that Yi Zhicheng is not too old-fashioned, Gu Ming is also relieved laughed.
Yi Zhicheng is still thinking about how to word it, to see if Gu Ming can send a few boxes of war supplies to Konoha. You know, what is given to those white-eyed wolves now will become a vortex in the future. The country pours water into the brain.
It's better to stay and expand your own strength.
At this moment, a young crew member stumbled into the captain's cabin, pointing outside with fear on his face, his voice trembling: "Fog...fog...fog..."
"Stinky boy, why is your mouth bitten by a turtle? Tell me clearly!" An apple core in Gu Ming's hand hit him directly on the head, and he said angrily.
"Fog...It's foggy outside...It's a big fog..." The young crew member was pale and swallowed, still panicking.
"Idiot! It's not normal to have fog on the sea!..." Gu Ming was stunned for a moment, and immediately jumped up from the stool: "What... it's foggy! Don't you idiots know how to avoid it!!"
"We...we thought it was just ordinary sea fog..." The crew looked a little aggrieved.
Gu Ming didn't care about Yi Zhicheng, and also lost his usual composure. His strong body knocked over things along the way in the narrow passage, attracting countless curses.
Yi Zhicheng followed closely behind and came to the deck.
Sure enough, as the crew said, the sea was foggy, thick as if covering the whole ship with a layer of white tulle, the visibility was so low that even the sails on the mast could not be seen standing on the deck.
"Sure enough..." Gu Ming, who has always been unrestrained, is also frowning at this moment.
"Did you encounter the Fog Hidden Fleet?" Yi Zhicheng knew that encountering heavy fog at sea was a very normal thing, but to make these crew members panic like this, they must be in danger.
"Hmm... There is chakra in the fog, it's not natural." Gu Ming just responded perfunctorily, still thinking about how to deal with it.
"Captain... turn around and run away!" A first officer who was also a member of the Uzumaki clan came over and suggested.
"No! We are traveling with the wind. If we want to go against the wind, there will be too much movement. Besides, they should not have noticed us, otherwise they would have bumped into us... What's more, they have a ripple perception enchantment. If they keep driving, they may be able to get past us. If you turn around rashly, you will be discovered." Gu Ming frowned.
Then he lowered his voice and ordered.
"Everyone keep absolute silence! Turn off the lights! Lower the sails!"
Immediately, the first officer and the second officer immediately dispersed and distributed the order.
Immediately everyone on the deck started to act. I have to say that the sailors on the Fuxing usually look lazy, but when something happened, they immediately showed good training, except for the unavoidable creaking sound of the wooden boards. , without a trace of extraneous sound.
They have all heard of the horror of the Hidden Fog Fleet. Once shrouded in this gloomy white mist, even the most powerful ships cannot escape, not to mention that the old man Fu Xing is not even remotely powerful. side.
With the clattering of the sails, all the work has been completed, and the Fuxing, which lost its sail power, stopped slowly. The only sound left on the entire deck was the sound of waves hitting the side, and even people's breathing was slow. Dare to speak loudly, as if all that is left is to wait for the favor of fate.
And Yi Zhicheng never used his life to gamble on the favor of the goddess of fate, because he has always been an unlucky ghost who was teased by the **** fate.
crunch... crunch...
The waves swayed gently, making the old Fuxing's disrepaired hull make a shrill sound, which seemed extremely annoying in this deadly quiet environment.
"Fucking daimyo... how many times have I said that the ship should be repaired, and I'm yelling every day that I have no money!" Gu Ming even dared to curse daimyo at this time.
"Can you hide?" Yi Zhicheng lowered his voice as much as possible even though he knew that his position would not be exposed because of this little voice.
"I don't know... Let's see if you have the fate to lift up the skirt of the goddess of the sea..." Gu Ming looked nervously at the surrounding sea, put the cigar in his mouth several times, and put it down again.
"Can't you do something?" Yi Zhicheng hated this feeling of waiting to die, like facing the enemy's gun, but betting his fate that there was no bullet in his gun.
"More than ten years ago, when the country of the vortex and the country of water were on good terms, we invited our elders to participate in the sealing ceremony of the tailed beast. That time I had the cheek to be a guard, and I also visited the flagship Mercury of the Wuyin fleet. ..." Gu Ming began to speak worriedly.
"I was very surprised at the time, so many ships were sailing in a sea area, surrounded by fog, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com couldn't see anything, why didn't they collide together?"
"It was only after getting their second officer drunk that I realized that they have a ripple perception command system. Every once in a while, they will send out shock ripples by hitting the metal plate on the bottom of the ship, sensing everything on the sea surface, and then distinguishing them according to the reflection wavelength. The enemy and the enemy, and then commanded by the psychic circle."
"Sonar radar? Is there such a perception technique? How often will they release this ripple perception?" Yi Zhicheng also frowned.
"During naval battles, it is basically released all the time, which is also called "the death knell of the foggy depth" by the pirates, because hearing the death knell basically means death. "
"Not necessarily during non-combat times. It may be knocked once an hour, or it may only be knocked once a few hours." Gu Ming shook his head, and he was not sure.
"If you stop the boat, can you hide it?"
"... I don't know, there will be reefs and whales in the nearby waters. If the sensory ninja on duty at night is inexperienced, Kirigakure may be able to get away with it."
The two were silent at the same time. They both knew that it was definitely not a good idea to leave everything to fate, but there was really nothing they could do at this time.
Time passed by little by little, and the mist still didn't seem to dissipate. Everyone's nerves were tense to the extreme, their faces were frighteningly pale, and their blood was about to freeze due to the cold wind. Yi Zhicheng even felt that there was a sharp sound at this moment. Shouting, can scare everyone's soul away.
"clang!!"
A dull metal bell sounded like a low roar from the abyss, and fine ripples appeared on the turbulent sea.
Yi Zhicheng could feel the tremor of the ship's hull when he pressed his hand on the deck.
"The death knell...is the death knell of Wuyuan!!" Everyone's face was pale.
