my steam dam

Chapter 159 What is a Luoyu with ten bodies?It's just a delicacy!
On the Bohai Strait, a row of eight [-]-material wooden giant ships are sailing on the sea.

The steam engine used as auxiliary power burns blazing coal, and the steam drives the propeller deep in the water, providing power for the giant ship, and it continues to roar forward.

Eight pillars of smoke soared into the sky, continuously rolling out black smoke, blackening the sky along the way.

If this scene is in the developed 21st century, it may be regarded as an act of extreme environmental damage.

However, in this world of Ming Dynasty, these towering pillars of smoke represent the pinnacle of technology.

When sailing on the sea, even if it is sailing in formation, the distance between each ship is hundreds of meters to ensure the safety of each other's navigation.

On the big ship in the middle of the fleet, hundreds of immigrants stood on the bow deck, all of them looked curiously at the endless sea.

Most of the common people have never had this kind of experience of sailing the sea in their life.

This kind of sea voyage may be difficult to encounter once in a lifetime. Naturally, everyone would not miss any details and ran to the deck one after another.

In the future, this will also be a good talk to brag about with relatives and children!
"I think back when your father and I sailed across the sea from Penglai..."

Saying these words can cause the uninformed common people to exclaim!

We will be regarded as people who have seen the world in the future!

Zhao Liusheng put his arms around his wife, stood on the bow deck of the ship, leaning on the railing, inhaling the salty sea breeze in a natural and unrestrained breath, full of pride in his heart.

Although he is just an immigrant by boat.

But standing on the highest bow at this time, he felt quite in control of the entire fleet.

Zhao Liusheng, who had never seen the sea before, was already infatuated with this feeling!
Hearing the whistling sea breeze in his ears, looking at the endless blue sky and clear water, and the prow of the ship riding the waves, Zhao Liusheng felt very comfortable all over his body!
It's such a wonderful feeling!

It's just that Amei in his arms is not so "proud".

She trembled uncontrollably, huddled in Zhao Liusheng's arms in fear, and said with trembling lips, "Master, let's go back to the cabin!"

"If it accidentally falls, it will be over!"

"The sea is so deep that you can't even see a small island in the surrounding area. It's too scary!"

"Never take a boat again!"

As she spoke, Ah Mui's voice sounded a little crying.

She was really scared.

The big ship with four thousand materials, when she was at the port, she looked really big, giving people a strong sense of security.

But when they got on the ship and the fleet set sail for the sea, the big ship of four thousand materials was no different from a lonely boat compared to the boundless sea.

Driving on the endless sea, surrounded by bottomless water, not even a small island can be seen.

This feeling made Amei feel unstoppable fear!

For the first time, she clearly felt how small and vulnerable human beings are in front of nature.

The feeling that the sky and the earth are all the same color, the four eyes are all lonely, and the water surface can't see the bottom at a glance, it really makes people unable to have a sense of security.

"It's okay, my Ming warship is invincible in the world, and it's very safe!"

"Our Liaodong Fleet has been running this route from Dengzhou to Jinzhou for more than ten years. Nothing happened, don't worry!"

The guards standing beside the ship kept comforting the frightened people who were going to sea for the first time.

Basically, people who go to sea for the first time, except for a small number of people who are naturally courageous, not only not afraid but also very excited, most of them will have a feeling of fear and awe in their hearts.

This is inevitable.

Human beings are inherently afraid of the sea, which is a biological instinct.

The more you adapt, the mentality can be adjusted.

Zhao Liusheng was also whispering constantly to comfort his wife, he really didn't feel any fear at all, instead he felt a sense of ease like flying.

Under the consolation of her husband, Ah Mei calmed down a lot, poked her head out from Zhao Liusheng's chest, and looked at the deep sea again.

However, this glance shocked her again.

"Then what is that?!"

Amy screamed in horror.

The soldiers standing on the deck and the civilians who came out for a breath of air all followed Amei's voice.

I saw a few long tentacles suddenly appearing on the surface of the sea, and they were constantly tumbling.

Each tentacle seemed to be one meter thick, and every time it was raised from the bottom of the sea, it would cause a large splash of water.

The surface of these tentacles looks sticky, and there are round sarcomas growing on the tentacles.

Seeing this scene, the immigrants were all hairy and had goosebumps all over their bodies, and a chill went straight from the soles of their feet to the sky.

What is this? It's too scary to look at!
"Everyone, don't panic! This is He Luo Yuye, with one head and ten bodies, a big fish in the Denglai Sea!"

"The tentacles fluttering in the sea are its body!"

"Although this fish looks ugly, its taste is extremely delicious. It is very sweet when eaten raw, and it tastes extremely strong when cooked!"

"Eating it can also cure carbuncle!"

"This is a rare delicacy!"

Under the loud explanations of the soldiers, the immigrants who were frightened and rioted a little, calmed down a little.

After calming down, everyone reacted.

Although this He Luoyu has a huge body, each tentacles are one or two meters long, but compared with the Ming Dynasty's giant ship, which is more than 20 meters wide and nearly [-] meters long, it is still not enough to look at.

They're on board, and they're safe.

Many more courageous immigrants stretched their heads to look around.

"In the past, our fleet has cruised ten times, but we haven't encountered a He Luoyu."

"Hahaha, everyone will be able to taste the deliciousness of this Heluo fish in a while!"

The patrolling soldiers continued to appease everyone loudly.

At the bow and stern of the ship, more than a dozen soldiers also opened a mechanism, and a gear with a width of two meters was exposed on the deck.

The soldiers pushed the rocker vigorously, and the gears began to rotate.

With the rotation of the gears, a large fishing net that was only a little shorter than the transport ship was released and sprinkled into the sea.

And under the uppermost deck, on the left side facing He Luoyu, the gun doors on the first floor were also opened, and the dark barrels of more than a dozen five-inch guns were pushed out.

"boom!!"

"Boom!!"

He Luoyu, who was playing happily in the sea, didn't know what happened, but was blasted into pieces by a salvo of artillery, and lost his life in a blink of an eye, sinking to the bottom of the sea.

"pull!!"

The bow and stern of the ship, manipulating the fishing net, and the soldiers who had been observing the situation, immediately reversed and pulled the joystick back forcefully.

"Hey ho, hey ho, hey ho!"

The soldiers pulled the rocker several meters thick, providing raw kinetic energy.

The steam engine at the bottom of the boat whirred and began to exert force.

The gear that originally released the fishing net clockwise also rotates counterclockwise.

The fishing net that had just been lowered for a short time was pulled back again.

With the recovery of the fishing nets, each tentacle was more than ten meters long, and there were tentacles more than one meter thick, which were pulled to the deck by the fishing nets.

The captain in charge of commanding the transport ship also rushed to the deck upon hearing the news.

Looking at these three or five huge tentacles, he laughed loudly and said:

"Hahaha, this Heluo fish is very big, I'm afraid half of it has sunk to the bottom of the sea."

"However, what we got back is enough for everyone to have another meal!"

"Let the fire be lit in the kitchen, and everyone will have a feast of He Luoyu at noon!"

"Send some more to the other ships!"

Even though the He Luoyu has been dismembered, the tentacles are still writhing at this moment, and the sarcoids on the tentacles are also stretching and shrinking.

This scene is as disgusting as it is disgusting.

Looking at the huge tentacles that just came out of the net on the deck, are wet, sticky, and are still twisting.

Even Zhao Liusheng, who loved the sea very much, felt a chill in his heart.

"Eat this thing for lunch today?!"
