Chapter 817 Green Turtle Shell
On the undercurrent of the sea, a ship floated alone like dead leaves. The waves surging, one after another, and the small boat swayed with the waves. Compared with the vast East China Sea, it seemed so small.
"Master, I happened to catch the strong wind and waves today. Come into the boat and avoid it. Don't get wet with the waves." Fugui, a servant from the family, came over and persuaded.
Wang Chuan sighed helplessly. Today he only brought a servant who was good at serving people. He rented a boatman and traveled lightly. He originally planned to go to the next port to find another merchant to discuss cooperation, but unfortunately he was in the middle of the waves in Shanghai. It was hard to say whether he could arrive before sunset.
The hull was shaking violently, his stomach rolled, and a nausea surged into his throat, so he planned to blow the wind on the ship armor to dispel the nausea. He waved his hand to signal Fugui that he did not want to return to the ship for the time being, so Fugui stood beside him and waited for instructions at any time. This time, the master only took him out. He had no special skills, only a pair of eyes that could observe his expression and a clever tongue. Thinking of this, Fugui couldn't help feeling proud.
The hull was slowly sailing forward, and suddenly the sky became gloomy and the wind blew. The waves became bigger and stronger, surging and rolling, causing waves of white foam to appear on the sea surface. The boatman's face changed suddenly. He had been on the boat for many years and knew the temper of this sea area the most. Today, he watched the celestial phenomena and vaguely felt that it would change the sky. He originally didn't want to go out to sea, but Wang Chuan spent money without hesitation. He was moved for a moment and gritted his teeth and agreed.
"Two masters, go back to the boat quickly, it's going to be waves!" the boatman shouted anxiously.
Fugui quickly helped Wang Chuan back to the boat to hide. Wang Chuan's face was not very good-looking. He just understood the nature of water and was not skilled. Today was really unlucky. As soon as he went out, he encountered this ghost weather. The huge wave just now made him feel nervous. When he was worried, he suddenly felt the hull shaking violently. Wang Chuan looked outside through the window, but saw an extremely huge wave sweeping towards them.
The waves were as high as a city wall, sweeping over half of the sea. The ship was an ant in front of it, without any power to fight back. If the waves were shot, the ship would have the fate of being crushed.
"Old...Master...Not good!!" Fugui was so scared that he collapsed, his voice trembling uncontrollably.
Wang Chuan was also cold in his hands and feet, and he was sweating in his back. He couldn't speak anymore, so he could only stare at the waves getting closer and closer.
The big waves swept forward quickly, carrying the wet and fishy sea water, which beat them hard in their terrified expressions without any mercy. Wang Chuan only felt that the salty and cold sea water poured into his mouth and nose from all directions. He felt his body sinking rapidly, his consciousness became blurred, and his eyelids became heavier and heavier. He thought, maybe his life would be over here today.
Just when Wang Chuan felt dead, he suddenly felt that his falling body was steadily caught by something. The touch of the thing was very hard. Has he already sank to the deepest part of the sea? His body was held up and gradually floated up until he returned to the sea. He took a deep breath of the long-lost air. When the air flowed into his nose, he couldn't help but cough violently. After a while, he waited until he calmed down before he had the chance to see clearly what he was lying on.
He lowered his head and looked at the bottom of his feet. He saw an extremely huge green turtle shell, which was about the size of a round table where eighteen people sat around. The unconscious servant Fugui was lying a distance from him, but the boatman disappeared. It seemed that there was a lot of danger. The turtle shell was carrying the master and servant slowly swimming towards the shore.
Fugui suddenly woke up and saw that he was being carried upstream of the sea by a big turtle. He was so scared that he was scattered: "Monster!!"
Wang Chuan frowned: "Stop shouting, it saved us."
The big turtle transported them back to the shore, and then turned into a gentle middle-aged man, saying, "I am a thousand-year-old turtle stationed in the East China Sea. Today, you and I have the fate, so I will save your life."
Wang Chuan quickly pulled Fugui down and kowtowed to thank him, saying gratefully: "Thank you for saving your life! Wang has no choice but to repay you!"
The turtle helped them up, looked at them with a smile, stroked his beard and said, "I happened to have something to ask for. If you help me, you will just take it as a reward for your kindness this time. How about it?"
"Dare you dare to ask the great immortal what it is? Just speak, Wang will do his best." Wang Chuan asked.
"That's right. I just finished one thousand years old after a few days. I felt that there would be a disaster in my destiny. Therefore, I wanted to use Mr. Wang's mansion to avoid me and let me spend the dormant period with you, from a shorter month to a long period. Mr. Wang only needs to provide me with a pool. The turtle clan is the most vulnerable during the dormant period. I hope Mr. Wang can make sure that no one is allowed to disturb me during that period. I wonder if it is convenient?" The turtle narrowed his eyes and asked with a gentle smile.
"This is no problem. The great immortal just needs to rest and recuperate at my place and can leave whenever he wants. There happened to be a large pond in my mansion, where some lotus flowers were planted and some fish were raised. If the great immortal was not satisfied, Wang could build another one." Wang Chuan said.
"No need to cause trouble, this is enough now. Then, let's make an appointment to see you next month. On this day of next month, I will turn into my current appearance and go to your mansion to find you." After the turtle made a date, he left, showed his true form again, jumped into the East China Sea, and soon disappeared.
Wang Chuan and Fugui watched the turtle leave, and then continued to rush. After saving their lives, they did not dare to take the water route for the time being, so they rented a carriage and took the land route. One day, their carriage drove to a suburb. Wang Chuan felt a little thirsty and happened to see a well water not far ahead, so he told Fugui to stop and rest first when he went in front.
Wang Chuan took a kettle and planned to go to the well to collect some water himself, and asked Fugui to sit in the car and wait. When he walked to the well, Wang Chuan felt relieved when he saw the well water was clear and clean. He picked up the wooden barrel tied beside him and threw it under the well to scoop a bucket of water. He leaned into the well half of his body, and after the barrel drank the water, he recycled the rope in his hand bit by bit.
Suddenly, a string of bubbles emerged from the well water, and a black shadow was swimming. I couldn't see clearly what it was. Wang Chuan thought, could there be fish in the well water?
At this moment, the black shadow below suddenly rushed up, stretched out his huge claws and grabbed Wang Chuan's neck. Wang Chuan was so scared that the bucket he was holding in his hand fell back to the bottom of the well, splashing a splash of water, and wet the corner of his clothes.
It was a huge, dark ventilation, and a terrifying monster. It pinched Wang Chuan's neck and held it in the air, cracking its scarlet mouth and smiling gloomyly. Wang Chuan was suddenly limp and could only let it manipulate. His heart was ashamed, and he only thought that he had just escaped and had come again and again, and he must have not read the calendar this time when he went out.
When Fugui saw a big monster suddenly jumping up from the well, he was so scared that he almost pissed his pants. He immediately whipped the horse's butt and drove the carriage away. Wang Chuan was so angry, but now he didn't have the extra energy to condemn Fugui, an ungrateful thing, and he only cared for God and Buddha to hope that he could escape from heaven again.
The monster held him up to him, so close that his face was almost close to him. Wang Chuan could even feel the heat coming out of his nostrils. The monster opened his mouth and sucked at him violently. Wang Chuan felt his headache splitting, something was flowing away in his body, and then he fainted with dark eyes.
When he woke up again, Wang Chuan found himself lying alone on the ground with a well next to him, but he didn't know what was going on. He just felt his head hurting and was about to crack. He held his hand and was in a daze. Suddenly, he heard a sound of horse hooves approaching in the distance. Looking over, he saw that his servant Fugui was his family.
I saw Fugui get off the carriage, and walked over with a timid look on his face, with a little dodging his eyes. Wang Chuan felt very strange, why did Fugui look very afraid of him?
"Fugui, what are you doing? Come and help me up. By the way, why am I lying on the ground, my clothes are still wet?" Wang Chuan asked in confusion.
When Fugui heard Wang Chuan say this, he looked surprised, and then hesitated and asked: "Master... don't you remember why you are lying here?"
"I just asked you if I don't know what happened to you, where did you get the carriage?" Wang Chuan frowned, feeling a little depressed, and couldn't figure out what the situation is currently going on.
After hearing Wang Chuan's words, Fugui could completely confirm that Wang Chuan had lost his memory, and it should have been caused by the monster just now. He continued to ask another question to test: "Then do you still remember what happened to us in the East China Sea?"
"What's going on in the East China Sea? I only know that we're here by boat." Wang Chuan looked puzzled.
Fugui's mind was spinning quickly, and he had a very bold plan in his heart. After thinking for a while, he finally made up his mind to speak: "Master, we fell into the sea when we were in the East China Sea. I tried my best to save you ashore, but I didn't have time to save the boatman, alas..."
Fugui felt a tear in a fake way and continued, "Then we came here, you were fetching water by the well, but accidentally fell in. I tried a lot of effort to pull you up, and then rode a carriage to find a doctor for you, but I didn't find it. I never thought that you had just returned but lost your memory. I guess you accidentally hit your head just now. What should I do?! Master, you have a lot of disasters and difficulties in your trip. If possible, Fugui really wants to block this disaster for you..."
Wang Chuan saw Fugui talking very well, and cried sincerely. When he looked at his current virtue, he believed Fugui's words. He was very moved for a moment. He unexpectedly, a small servant was so loyal to him and saved him three times and four times.
So Wang Chuan promised to return to the mansion and promoted him to the house, and gave him gold, silver and jewelry as rewards, hoping that he would continue to be loyal to him in the future.
