Chapter 814: Chapter 813: Blind Obedience
The crowd followed her gaze, what did they see?
Seagulls were calling, circling above the sea, their cries seed a bit uneasy.
“The seagulls are flying very low.”
“These birds are flying lower than they did before sunset.”
Ah Jiu and Purple Jade spoke simultaneously.
Wufu nodded, giving the two a look of approval, and said, “Animals are much more sensitive to danger than humans. So if there are birds like seagulls, they will fly very low, even skimming the water, due to the pressure of the atmosphere, which is the low pressure I ntioned earlier. Look…”
The crowd looked over, and sure enough, those birds were flying very low, so even skimming the water’s surface, their expressions changed slightly.
“My girl…”
“Now they are flying low, but if a real storm approaches, and if we get closer to the storm, we might not find any living creatures flying, because they are more sensitive to danger than humans.” Wufu’s voice was sowhat grave.
“I’ve heard sothing like that too, for example, when an earthquake occurs, there are always so signs, such as small animals becoming restless and trying to escape.” Yan Er said solemnly, “When I was in the Foreign Land, I experienced it firsthand, even before it started, the dogs began barking wildly as a warning.”
Ah Jiu furrowed his brow, looked at Wufu, and asked, “How confident are you?”
“Sixty percent.” Wufu shifted her gaze, and upon seeing a large cloud formation on the horizon, she chuckled bitterly, “Now it should be considered seventy percent.”
“How is that possible, the weather is still so nice right now.”
“Yeah, could there be a mistake?”
Wufu didn’t speak, she slightly closed her eyes, feeling the increasingly oppressive airflow, the breath of salty air hitting her face without any wind, that oppressive feeling made her very uncomfortable.
She wished she was wrong, at least they wouldn’t suffer the storm’s baptism.
“Go tell the boatman to prepare.” Ah Jiu looked at Yuan Ye.
Yuan Ye responded and left.
Jin Yu was a bit surprised, just from hearing a possibility from Wufu, they’d determined her words to be correct, this kind of trust…
He looked at Ah Jiu, then at Wufu, seeing her even more serious than when facing the water bandits, his heart sank, and said, “I’ll go take a look too.” With that, he also left.
Su Luo and others exchanged glances, all looking at Wufu, and asked, “My lady, what should we do?”
Wufu turned around, and said, “What to do?” She tilted her head slightly, thought for a mont, and said, “Ropes, get them ready, secure them.”
She gave a series of instructions, Su Luo listened and went down with the others to make arrangents.
Yan Er watched, raised an eyebrow, and looked at Ah Jiu, seeing no displeasure on his face, then pondered.
But obviously, on the sea, Wufu knows more than Ah Jiu, and the guards, including Su Luo, thought so too, which was why they directly asked Wufu instead of Ah Jiu.
But this trust wasn’t gained overnight, they must have gone through a lot before he arrived, otherwise, Su Luo and others wouldn’t trust her so much.
“I think I made a wrong decision.” Ah Jiu looked at Wufu and said with a bitter smile.
Wufu shrugged, and said, “No, you must have weighed the pros and cons and chose the one with relatively greater benefits. It’s just that the dangers arising from this process are unforeseen. After all, no one can predict the future!”
Ah Jiu shook his head with a bitter smile, and asked, “Preparation, will it help?”
“I don’t know either!” Wufu looked into the distance, sighed, and said, “It’s better than nothing, let’s hope Heaven won’t be too harsh!”
