"Third brother! Make your fucking hook stronger!"
"Hey, Wu boy, stop being a lazy ass! After this trip, I'll earn enough money to marry you a fat bitch!"
A group of trackers swarmed in front of Xiao Han's big boat, laughing loudly with each other while quickly tying ropes on the big boat.
They have done this kind of work countless times in the past two days and are already familiar with it.
Although the boat this time was larger than the previous ones, no one thought about looking elsewhere because of the smooth wind and water in the past two days.
Even the most stable old trackers were happily watching these young men busy at work, and at the same time thinking in their hearts how to spend the money this time.
Well, you can buy a flowery dress for your little granddaughter, and a silver ring for the old lady. If you still have some extra, buy a pot of soju and invite some old friends to your home to have a couple of drinks together!
As for the son? Roll the ball! If you want to spend money, earn it yourself!
Just like this, in everyone's ardent fantasy, the big ship slowly sailed away from the gentle slope, and was pulled upstream by the thick rope.
Because Xiao Han's ship is really too big, this time the fiber pulling is still a little different from the previous grain ship.
In the past, those large grain ships used dozens of trackers, while the small ones only used a dozen people, but this big ship has more than a hundred people working together!
The mountain road plank road by the river is densely packed with strong trackers! The fiber ropes that spanned the water like spider webs gradually gathered into a dozen main ropes, which firmly tied the big boat in the rapids. No matter how turbulent the rolling Yellow River water was, it could not wash away the boat at all.
"One, two, three, hey!"
The scene of everyone working hard together is always the most touching!
Listening to the beat roared by the tracker in front, Xiao Han on the boat clung to the railing of the boat, his eyes fixed on the three stone pillars in front of him that were high above the water.
Of these three stone pillars, the main pillar on the left is the largest!
In the middle is Zhang Gongdao, and on the right is the dressing table!
Each name seems more elegant than the last, but in reality each one is more deadly than the last!
The Yellow River flows through the upper reaches and is divided into three streams by two stone islands!
Three streams of water rushed down, merged into one stream in the narrow channel, and finally hit the three stone pillars hard!
In an instant, the waves shook the sky, and the turbid waves emptied, which was thrilling! It is the most dangerous place on the Yellow River since Tongguan, and it is not one of the most dangerous places!
The big ship swayed past the pillar stone, so close that you could almost reach out and touch this huge stone that had stood for who knows how many years.
Lao Fan carefully controlled the rudder, but in the cold weather, his head was covered with sweat!
Now, the lives of an entire boatload of people were in his hands, and there was no room for him not to be nervous!
"Sail, half sail!"
Time seemed to slow down at this moment. I don’t know how long it took, but the ship finally passed the pillar stone. Old Fan wiped his sweat fiercely and shouted loudly! Immediately some sailors rushed to raise the sail.
With the help of the wind, the ship's forward speed instantly accelerated a lot.
"Master Hou, there are three gates ahead. As long as we pass through the human gate, we can go all the way to Tongguan!" Opening his chapped lips, Lao Fan laughed and said to Xiao Han.
"Okay!" Xiao Han heard Lao Fan's voice, looked at the three stone islands fading away behind him, and nodded heavily!
He also knew that the pillar stone on this road was the most dangerous. As long as he passed it, the rest was to pass through the door step by step, and the danger would be greatly reduced.
"When we arrive at Tongguan, we will enter Guangtong Canal. The next stop will be Chang'an!"
Imagining that he was about to bring this huge fleet to Chang'an safely, Xiao Han couldn't help but get excited even though he had pretended to be calm before!
With this success, countless people will surely see the value of this route again. It is only a matter of time before Chang'an Bashui and Baifan Qiandao!
Grasping the railing in front of him tightly, Xiao Han could not help but think of the scene of the prosperous Tang Dynasty in his mind. Unfortunately, he forgot that there is another saying in this world, which is called extreme happiness leading to sorrow!
"Boom..."
As a wave hit, a thin and crisp sound immediately came from the front of the ship. The sound was not loud, but it was extremely clear!
"what sound!"
Hearing this strange noise, Lao Fan, who was smiling just now, suddenly changed his face!
But before anyone could answer, the boat beneath me trembled violently, and then someone on the shore shouted: "No! The rope is broken!"
Next, under Xiao Han's horrified eyes and Old Duan's horrified roar, the ship instantly changed from forward to backward! And the speed is getting faster and faster, heading straight towards the main stone!
————
Previously, on shore.
Seeing that the big ship had passed the most dangerous place, the trackers heaved a sigh of relief and smiled a little on their faces. Suddenly, one of the ropes broke into two pieces without any warning!
Moreover, the short rope is still the main rope!
As soon as it broke, the seven or eight people at the end responsible for pulling it were instantly unable to hold back! Under this huge force, the broken rope was thrown back to the mountain road, whipping a man who couldn't dodge until he vomited blood on the spot and passed out on the side!
"Hold on! Hold on! Put the rope on the stake!"
When the leader of the trackers at the front saw this scene, his eyes immediately split open! He shouted and asked those people to put the ropes in their hands into the wooden stakes that had been prepared on the plank road!
However, before the trackers could follow suit, the ropes were like pushed dominoes, with several more breaking in the blink of an eye!
In an instant, there were loud sounds flying everywhere on the river. The big boat in the center of the river made a terrifying sound and fell backwards, dragging the remaining rope!
"what happened!"
"No! The boat is going out of control!"
There was a chorus of exclamations!
The tracker leader's eyes almost bleed!
"Calm down! Hurry and set the stake head! Hurry!"
He roared and ran to the middle of the team, trying to pull the big ship with the remaining ropes, but several main ropes were broken one after another. How could the remaining ropes hold such a big ship?
Some people who were too late to put the ropes into the pile heads were dragged downstream like chickens! And the ropes that had been tied to the piles were also struggling to hold up, either breaking, or pulling the piles directly off!
In just the blink of an eye, the huge hull was completely freed from its restraints, carrying several strands of fiber ropes with it, flowing down the river, and crashing straight into the mainstay!
"The Water Dragon King is recruiting people, this is the Water Dragon King is recruiting people!"
When the last fiber rope breaks! All the trackers on the plank road stared blankly at the big ship rushing towards the pillar stone like an arrow from the string, muttering to themselves!
The elderly tracker leader fell weakly to the ground, with tears streaming down his face. Beside him, a blood-stained cable had a broken section that was half smooth and half uneven!
