Douluo: Reincarnated in Danheng, a Unique Journey of Pioneering

Chapter 189 An Abnormal Storm
As Dan Heng had predicted, when he found the ship owner, the ship owner seemed to have been waiting for him for a long time.

"I'm so sorry, sir."

"Boat owner, there's something I need to tell you."

The two met, spoke at the same time, and then stopped at the same time.

They both read what they wanted in each other's eyes.

"Sir, would you like to change boats?"

The ship owner was filled with anticipation that Dan Heng would reveal the answer he had in mind.

"Yes, it's me."

"Thank you so much!"

Unexpectedly, Dan Heng only said "yes" before the ship owner grabbed his hand and shook it violently a few times.

"You wouldn't believe it, but just this afternoon, another storm suddenly arose at sea, swallowing up an old fleet that had been rooted in Hanhai City for decades!"

"All our guests have cancelled their trip a few days later because of the storm, and we're only missing you!"

When the ship owner spoke of the storm at sea that day, a deep sense of fear inevitably appeared on his face.

Even though he had lived by the sea since childhood, he had never seen such a strong storm in all his years.

Even from an immense distance, he could see the terrifying sight of the sea stretching to the horizon.

Moreover, even though it was far away, the port was affected to some extent. Some small boats were blown about by the aftershocks of the storm, but fortunately nothing serious happened.

He didn't think any fleet would survive a storm of that magnitude.

"Furthermore, guest, to be honest, if you're not in a hurry, you should wait a while before going out to sea."

"Recently, I don't know if it's because the Sea God is angry or some kind of soul beast is stirring up trouble, but the sea is becoming more and more turbulent."

The boat owner kindly reminded him that although the sea had been quite rough recently, based on his many years of sailing experience, the waves at sea usually come in waves.

Once this period passes, they will be able to go out to sea as usual. There is no need to rush. It's just that they will earn less during this time. Can people who make a living by the sea really not even get through this short period?
"I see, I understand. Thank you for letting me know."

Danheng nodded his thanks, but he didn't want to wait that long.

Who knows if this storm is the impotent rage of that sea god after his divine will was shattered?

If so, then how long it will take for the storm to subside is anyone's guess.

But if I go to sea during this time, won't the sea god take revenge and destroy all the ships that go to sea with me?

Surely a god wouldn't do such a thing?
It's really hard to say.

The storms at sea have claimed many lives recently, and they show no signs of stopping.

However, it is also possible that, as the ship owner said, the storm was caused by a spirit beast.

"Hey, wait a minute, if you're changing ships, you should be going to get on the Gao brothers' ship, right?"

Just as Danheng was about to leave, the boat owner suddenly called him back.

"Those two brothers are indeed quite strong, but this time the storm is too big for them to handle."

"Oh, I see. Then I'll go ask them again. Maybe they'll change their minds?"

Seeing this, the boat owner didn't say anything more; he had already said what he needed to say.

According to Goldman Sachs, his brother, Gao Qiang, usually stayed at the easternmost end of the port, in a tavern specifically for the port's fleet.

Danheng entered the tavern and found it bustling with noise; most people were discussing the unusual storm that had recently struck the sea. The storm's impact was so great that the vast majority of ships had ceased operations.

However, since many people need to go to sea, and during this special period, fleets can take the opportunity to make a fortune, so many fleets still take the risk.

But today, after witnessing the incredibly terrifying giant storm, almost all the ships suspended their plans to go to sea.

They simply lacked the confidence to conquer the storm that instilled fear in people at first glance.

"Old Gao, are you sure you want to go on this trip? Although you two brothers are both Soul Emperors and have Martial Soul Fusion Skills, so many people have perished in this storm. You can't risk your life for money."

Just as Dan Heng was searching for Gao Qiang, the conversation of several middle-aged men nearby caught his attention.

After walking over, Danheng saw the man surrounded by a large group of crew members.

The man looked to be in his thirties, with a faint smile on his face. As he listened to the people around him, his eyes were slightly lowered.

He knew this ship wouldn't be easy to sail, but it was also an opportunity!

If they can return from this trip, they will not only make a fortune and have no worries about work for the next year or two, but their fleet's reputation will also rise significantly, ensuring a worry-free life for the rest of their days in Hanhai City.

"Alright, alright, let's leave this topic at that. So many passengers have already paid their deposits and are just waiting to set sail. If I back down now, how will I ever face anyone again?"

The gossip around them grew louder and louder, and the man got annoyed, so he simply waved his hand to end the conversation.

Seeing that he had made up his mind, those around him could only shake their heads and sigh before leaving.

Before leaving, some people would turn back and look at him with a hint of pity, as if to remember his face.

Once most of the people around had left, the man picked up the wine glass on the table in front of him, tilted his head back, and drank it all in one gulp.

"One or two of them, talking so nicely, but they're all just waiting to see us make a fool of ourselves."

After downing a mouthful of strong liquor, the man muttered something under his breath.

Having spent so much time here, he had long since figured out the nature of the people here.

When there are no storms, the network of relationships among so many fleets in the port is more complex than most people can imagine.

"Are you Captain Gao Qiang?"

Dan Heng sat down opposite the man and began to speak.

"It's me. Oh, you're the guest Xiao Sheng brought over, right?"

Gao Qiang looked at Dan Heng with some doubt, and after confirming that he had never seen him before, he tentatively asked.

At this point in time, the only people who would come directly to this tavern to find him are probably the customers his brother, Goldman Sachs, brought along.

"That's right. I wonder when Captain Gao plans to set sail?"

"Well, there should be two seats left on the ship. Let's wait another day. If no one else comes, we'll set sail the day after tomorrow."

Gao Qiang paused for a moment. He still wanted to wait a little longer; if two more people came, he could earn more money.

If we don't make more money, how can we justify the huge risks they've taken!
But if it takes too long, and the waves at sea get too big, even if the two brothers have a martial soul fusion skill, they won't dare to force their way in.

After all, the fusion skill of the two brothers' martial souls is not particularly outstanding in terms of offensive capabilities, but it is very practical in terms of functionality; otherwise, he would not have taken such a big risk.

"Okay, then I'll come to the port the day after tomorrow morning."

"No problem, the largest ship on the far west side of the port is ours. The guests can just go there and wait."

Gao Qiang treated Dan Heng as just an ordinary guest and exchanged a few simple pleasantries.
