"No problem, it's a rare encounter at sea. It's okay to help each other. Don't move your ship, our Lion is close to you."
The ship that came was called the Lion, which was much taller and larger than the Warrior. Under the shouts of the sailors on the ship, the Lion gradually approached the Warrior.
A rope ladder was thrown over from the Lion and landed on the Warrior. Chen Bing stepped forward and helped fix the rope ladder to the ship. Several crew members then climbed up the ladder from the Lion.
"they are?"
The sailors on the Warrior noticed the movement and walked out of the cabin.
Looking at the Lion and the crew coming from the rope ladder, the sailor asked Chen Bing suspiciously.
"I checked the ship. The ship was damaged in the storm. The Lion just passed by, so I asked them to come and help."
Chen Bing explained briefly.
"Lion, sounds strange?"
The sailor murmured suspiciously.
In the deep sea, human beings are very small. Most of the people or ships they sail on will try their best to help, but there are also pirates at sea, and they have to be careful of being looted.
"Don't worry, the pirates won't be like this. I'm polite with us. Our ship's speed is not comparable to others."
Chen Bing comforted the sailor, and so did the sailor.
The Lion is a lap bigger than the Warrior, and at a faster speed, if it is a pirate, just hit it directly, and the Warrior can't run away.
"Hello, I am Yassin, the captain of the Lion. I wonder what's wrong with your ship?"
Among the people who came, the head was a middle-aged man, and he asked Chen Bing heartily.
"captain?"
Chen Bing and the sailor were very surprised. They didn't expect the captain of the Lion to come personally.
"It's nothing, I just happened to be on duty, so I won't disturb the rest crew. Let's talk about your ship's problem first, it's best to solve it as soon as possible, otherwise it may cause a chain reaction." Yashin nodded with a smile, and said instead.
"In the storm a while ago, our rudder seemed to have a problem. It turned like something stuck and couldn't move flexibly. The captain and chief mate were caught in the sea. I was worried about how to fix it. You are here."
Chen Bing nodded and answered in distress.
"Something went wrong with the rudder?"
The sailor looked at Chen Bing in surprise. He did a simple check before taking a break, and he was fine at that time.
"By the way, the sea is so deep and unpredictable. But with such a big storm, you are lucky to be fine."
"There is a problem. It may be that the storm has exceeded the limit. After the storm has passed, the consequences will appear."
Yashin heard the captain and others being caught in the sea, sighed to comfort Chen Bing and the sailor, then walked to the rudder, turned the rudder, and confirmed.
"Really, it's troublesome now."
The sailor walked over in disbelief and turned twice, frowning.
Misfortunes never come singly. The rudder is damaged, and the problem may not be an ordinary one.
"It's not necessarily a big problem. I will ask my people to check it out."
Yassin patted the sailor on the shoulder.
"You two, dive into the water and see what's wrong with the rudder."
Yassin instead ordered the two burly sailors who followed him.
"It's so late, there is no danger, right?"
Chen Bing asked worriedly.
"It's okay, they are all experienced old sailors. There is little difference between being underwater at night and during the day. It's just a little bit colder, but just check the situation and there will be no problem. Right now, there is still a problem of finding the ship early. It's good to solve it as soon as possible, otherwise if there is another storm, your boat will be in danger."
Yaxin waved his hand to relieve Chen Bing.
Chen Bing and the sailor didn't insist either. Yasing's two sailors each took a rope, and then jumped into the sea with a puff.
After a while, the two sturdy sailors got out of the sea.
The two climbed back to the deck along the rope, and took the towel from the sailor to clean the seawater.
"Captain, it won't work. The main shaft of the rudder is cracked, and the situation will become more and more serious. Unless the main shaft can be replaced, it will soon be completely out of control."
A sturdy sailor murmured the problem.
"What, there is a crack in the spindle? It can't be repaired without the dock!"
The sailor of the Warrior panicked when he heard it.
The inability of the rudder to control means that the ship cannot control the direction of navigation and can only follow the waves on the sea.
Fresh water and food on their boats are limited, so it is no different from waiting to die.
"Up to now, we can only abandon the ship. We are going to the Gracia mainland. The ship only pulls some important goods urgently entrusted by the guests. There are no guests. It is no problem to bring everyone on your ship."
After thinking for a while, Yaxin said resolutely.
"Abandon the ship?"
The sailor of the Warrior couldn't help but hesitated. The ship was not his own, but the captain's. Throwing the ship in this deep sea is no different from sinking into the bottom of the sea. It is impossible to find it again.
"This is also a last resort. You should be thankful that you are lucky enough to meet us, otherwise you will have to wander on the sea."
A sturdy sailor on the Lion glanced at the sailor on the Warrior.
"I see, I am telling other crew members and guests."
The sailor thought that it was indeed the case.
The first officer waited for several of his companions to be swept into the sea. They were lucky to be alive. The boat was not theirs anyway. If something went wrong, he had to abandon the boat and couldn’t blame them. The captain would blame him for bad luck. Up.
"The ship is broken and can't continue sailing?"
"What, abandon the ship?"
There was a commotion when the Warrior got on the horse, and in the middle of the night, the news that the ship had broken down and was about to abandon the ship suddenly awakened many people.
But when they learned that they had no luck with the Lion and that the Lion would take them and send them to the Graxia mainland, these people hurriedly said that it was okay, packed their luggage and walked out.
The Lion was already close to the Warrior, and a ladder was erected to facilitate boarding.
The two witches, Harmony and Sani, also walked out of the cabin and followed all the guests.
"Please come to me to register, and I will allocate rooms for you."
After boarding the Lion, the chief officer of the Lion said to dozens of guests~EbookFREE.me~These passengers on the Warrior had nothing to say about it. It is a great gift that others are willing to rescue them for free. The rules are naturally to be followed.
The information of each guest was registered, and finally it was Hamu and Sani's turn.
"You can go to room 36 on the left side of the cabin."
The first officer glanced at the two of them and arranged a room for them.
While arranging the room, the goods on the Lion were also transferred.
The quantity of goods is small, and all goods are transferred after registration.
The sky was faintly bright, and the Warrior was abandoned on the sea, and the Lion headed towards the Graxia continent without turning back.
"Excuse me, are you witches?"
Not long after Hamu and Sani stayed in Room 36, they welcomed a guest, Yassin, the captain of the Lion.
