Chapter 1 Must be Transcendence

"What's going on?" Xiao Mingli's water cup suddenly poured out and spilled out. The Yunsheng No. 1 passenger and cargo ship, which was driving normally, suddenly paused as if it was suddenly tripped by something. "Where did it come from? Stranding? Has it hit the ship?"

"I don't know! It's too dark outside and I can't see clearly." Liu Dafa, who had been looking outside the window, was a little surprised, but soon his face was filled with panic, "What's going on? Why is the sky getting brighter?!"

Xiao Mingli also felt a sudden illumination in the cabin, and a dazzling white light filled the entire cabin. This was definitely not the effect of the dim lights in the cabin. Xiao Mingli subconsciously closed his eyes, and a noisy and chaotic sound came from his ears, and the boat only felt slightly tilted.

Soon, feeling that the cabin had returned to normal again, Xiao Mingli opened his eyes and rushed to the deck. It was still dark outside. The ship had stopped and the rolling seemed to have stopped. There was a vague sound of shouting in front of the left, but the wind on the channel was loud and I couldn't hear clearly when I was anxious.

There were more and more people on the deck, and everyone was talking, occasionally mixed with the crying of children.

"Please don't panic. Our ship was accidentally stranded. We are currently contacting the maritime department for rescue. Please return to the cabin in an orderly manner..." The tweeter on the ship rang, repeating over and over again.

"How is the situation?" Xiao Bailang, captain of Yunsheng No. 1, asked anxiously, with fine beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.

"There is no water in the cabin and the hull is intact." The commander of the engineer Han Dezhi had just checked the hull and equipment with the man, and came up to report quickly.

"Are anyone injured? Go to each cabin for inspection, and those who are injured should be injured should be treated immediately." Xiao Bailang waved his hand and signaled the ship doctor to deal with it quickly, "Is the navigation equipment still no signal?"

"Well, not only that, the maritime satellite phone cannot be connected. And..." The first mate Wang Tiechhui took out the cell phone in his pocket, and there was no signal.

Xiao Bailang was speechless and after a long time, he asked: "What's going on with the barge? It's also stranded? It's really strange. After walking through this channel for so many years, it's the current flood season again, so how could it be stranded."

No one can answer that the vision that happened in the sky just now made everyone vaguely have bad associations.

The waiters on the boat entered each cabin and asked each passenger about his condition and what help was needed. With their efforts, the passengers temporarily recovered and the noisy sounds gradually became smaller.

"This is the sea breeze!" Wang Qinian said decisively, "I have been blowing in the Zhoushan Islands for three years, and I will never make a mistake."

"Sea breeze? No, right? We are sailing on the inland river of the Yangtze River." Ma Qianzu, director of a county-level municipal party committee office, handed a cigarette to Wang Qinian, and said in confusion.

"So I'm very strange. And didn't you notice it?" Wang Qinian turned on his strong flashlight and looked into the distance. "The river we stranded is only about 30 meters wide, and the water depth is at most three or four meters. Our current location should be the estuary of this river, at least not far from the estuary."

"Don't think too much." Ma Qianzu threw the cigarette butt into the river and walked towards the cabin in a blink of an eye. "I know the situation at dawn."

The waiter distributed many biscuits to the passengers and brought hot water to everyone. The passengers' dissatisfaction calmed down a lot, and most of them were quietly waiting for the arrival of rescue workers, and some even went back to the bed to sleep with peace of mind.

***************************************

Shao Shude muttered a few dissatisfaction and got up from the bed. The sun had already risen, and the sound on the deck was very noisy, as if many people were quarreling excitedly, and some were crying.

"What's wrong?" Shao Shude gently patted the shoulder of the person in front of him. This was a young man in his twenties. He was a fellow villager with Shao Shude and met on the boat. The two had a good chat yesterday.

"Brother Shao! Something big happened!" The young man Qian Hao waved his arms violently and said excitedly, "We have traveled through time! This is not the Yangtze River! We have traveled through time!"

"What are you talking nonsense?" Shao Shude almost blurted out his words, but when he thought of the strange situation last night, he held it in his arms and didn't say it out.

"And, Brother Shao, look at the sky!" Qian Hao looked up at the sun with excitement.

"Grass!" Shao Shude was also stunned. It was almost 8:30 in the morning and the sun was already high. But this was not the point. The point was that the sun actually hung on the sky in the north! What does this mean? This means that they are in the southern hemisphere now!

"There are no people from the maritime department to rescue?" Shao Shude said as soon as he said this, he knew that he was wrong. Damn it's all in the southern hemisphere, but he can't save it!

"All the communication equipment on the ship failed. I have not been able to contact others since last night! There is no signal for satellite navigation!" Qian Hao said, pointing at the captain's room, "Look, there is a group of people blocking the door of the captain's room, all of whom are looking for an explanation."

Shao Shude looked up and said, sure enough, there were a group of people standing in the dark at the door of the captain's office, but the sound was too noisy to hear clearly what they were talking about.

"Friends, travelers..." Xiao Bailang's forehead was covered with sweat, his collar was tilted, and his voice was already a little hoarse: "We are verifying the specific situation! Please rest assured, we have sent someone to the ashore for help!"

The passengers were obviously dissatisfied with this remark and began to condemn them again. Some people with bad tempers even started to push them. The security guards rushed forward and separated the crowd.

"Hey! They are back! Wang Tiech and the others are back!" Security captain Lin Youde suddenly yelled, attracting everyone's attention.

"It seems they are some!"

"No! Someone is chasing them behind!"

"I'll just go! Who is that person? His face is painted like a ghost!"

"Ah! Indians! Is this a movie?"

Xiao Bailang rushed away the crowd, lay on the railing, and looked forward. It was indeed his first mate Wang Tiechu!

In the morning, Wang Tiechui took two security guards to the ashore on a lifeboat for help. It has only been more than two hours since then, why did he come back? And he was driven back? Who was behind? He was surrounded by animal skins and bird feathers on his head, and he didn't know what to shout.

Wang Tiehui and the other two rolled and climbed onto the lifeboat, quickly launched the machine to drive towards the center of the river. Fortunately, the pursuers behind were still a little far away and had no long-range weapons, which allowed them to escape from danger smoothly.

"My God, I'm back!" Wang Tiechui sat on the deck, panting.

"Have you found someone? What happened? Who is chasing you?" Xiao Bailang's series of doubts hit Wang Tiechhui, his tone in a quick and urgent tone.

"We... we searched for a long time but didn't meet anyone." Wang Tiech gasped and said, "This place looks like a wilderness, and there is no sign of human activity at all. It's not right. We met these Indians. Grandma, a bear, when we saw us from afar, we rushed over with our spears and shouted, just like we saw the enemy who killed our father."

Xiao Bailang's eyes turned to the other two security guards, and they nodded at the same time, confirming that what Wang Tiechhui said was true.

"Boom!" The crowd suddenly exploded, and the news brought back by Wang Tiechui spread at an astonishing speed. The people who heard it were either happy or sad, at a loss, or excited, and all the time.

"A lot of Indians are coming!" someone suddenly shouted.

Sure enough, the "suspected Indians" who were chasing Wang Tiech had rushed to the shore and protested there with spears. On the edge of the woods behind them, more than a dozen people in the same outfit as them emerged, and were quickly rushing towards the river bank.

"What are they doing? Ah, I'm hit by an arrow!" An unlucky ghost suddenly screamed. The crowd suddenly dispersed like a frightened deer. The boat doctor immediately dragged the first aid kit and rushed over. After a closer look, he found that the guy was not hit by an arrow, but his sleeve was shot through. Soon, several arrows fell scattered on the deck. Several barges and tugboats stranded in front were also taken care of by bows and arrows. The people who were originally looking around quickly hid in the cabin.

"It's a bone arrow! The skills are very rough." Wang Qinian hugged his waist and picked up a scattered arrow. "From the strength of the arrow just now, the bow is not much stronger, at least it is not well maintained."

"I have to find a way to drive them away." A man with a black face in his 20s beside him leaned over. "There are many high-precision hunting crossbows in the cargo hold, which are much stronger than their broken bows. As long as a few shots are shot down, most of the savages will scatter."

"This...is this illegal?" Ma Qianzu was a little uncertain.

"That's a big deal!" Xiao Bailang, who was standing beside him, said viciously, "They all shot us with arrows, so let's give them a few shots? Xiaolin, you can bring a few people to the warehouse and bring a few hunting crossbows."

The security captain Lin Youde quickly responded and took a few security guards to hurry down the warehouse.

The "suspected Indians" opposite were still shouting, and even several wooden javelins flew towards the barge and Yunsheng No. 1, but fortunately no casualties were caused.

"Captain, the hunting crossbow is here." Lin Youde and four security guards rushed over with a cardboard box.

The black-faced man assembled a hunting crossbow without saying a word, then installed an arrow, tilted the strings, and aimed.

"Swish!" The 8mm featherless arrow rushed out quickly. A "suspected Indian" on the river bank shook and then fell down. "Swish!" "Swish!" The black-faced man shot two arrows after taking the shots. His face was neither blushed nor breathing, and both arrows hit.

The "Indians" on the shore and the passengers on the boat were stunned at the same time. The "Indians" were stunned for a moment, then turned around and ran towards the woods, while the passengers on the boat couldn't help but look at the black-faced man.

"High-precision hunting crossbow, with optical scope. 8mm featherless arrow, initial velocity of arrow 150 meters per second, effective range 125 meters, and a distance deviation of 60 meters is within 20 mm. This is less than 20 meters in full, and if you don't hit it, you will be a ghost. Well, don't look at me, I often use this thing when hunting." The black-faced man blushed rarely.

"All these Indians are dead? This... Although this is self-defense, it is also excessive defense, right?" The ship doctor Wang Liao was a little unable to accept everything in front of him.

"Swish! Lao Wang, are there any Indians in modern society with this style? Besides, so many things have happened last night, why haven't you understood it yet? From what I see, we must have traveled through time! I just don't know where it is now and what era." Lin Youde laughed at the ship doctor Lao Wang, and his expression was still a little longing as he spoke. It turns out that this kid had long been looking forward to traveling through time.
