However, despite their quick reaction, they were unable to save all the fish, and many returned to the sea.
There's nothing we can do about it.
More than ten hours have passed since the typhoon, and the impact on the lagoon is receding, with the waves gradually decreasing.
The wave that just hit was much smaller than the one that hit in the morning, and its impact was also much weaker.
Therefore, when the waves surge in, some of the fish are washed up to the vicinity of the tail slide.
Before anyone could grab them, they were swept back by the reverse-flowing seawater.
As time goes by, this situation becomes more and more obvious.
In the sea, you can see quite a few fish occasionally surfacing, bobbing up and down with the waves.
However, most of them were not swept onto the boat by the waves, and even those that did struggled back into the sea very quickly.
Only when you've made preparations and are quick-witted can you catch a few.
Half an afternoon passed, and none of the three baskets were full.
"Sigh, there's no way to make a living."
"Yes, the waves aren't as big anymore; the impact of the typhoon is decreasing here."
"It's a pity about those fish in the sea; we can see them, but we can't reach them."
"Forget it, what's gone is gone. Don't be too greedy. We've already gained a lot, it's pretty good."
“Ah Ye is right. We originally just planned to take shelter here. These are all unexpected gains.”
"Alright, there aren't many fish left. Everyone, let's not stand here in the rain anymore. Let's all go back to the cabin."
Feng Ye smiled.
It was almost six o'clock by then.
Although the rain had lessened somewhat, it was still drizzling on and on.
Everyone felt there was no need to stand outside and wait any longer, as it was difficult to catch any fish that occasionally came up.
So everyone went back to the cabin and changed out of their wet clothes.
Ah-Can suddenly asked, "Brother Ye, the waves have calmed down a lot now, so we should be able to go back tomorrow, right?"
"The waves inside the lagoon have subsided, but the waves outside are still quite large. Let's see how it goes tomorrow."
Feng Ye gazed into the distance at the still surging waves at the lagoon outlet, his brows furrowing slightly.
To leave this place, we must wait until the waves outside calm down to a certain extent.
Otherwise, forcibly leaving would be too dangerous.
This is no joke.
He continued, "If the waves outside calm down tomorrow and there are no problems sailing, then we'll set sail back immediately."
Ah-Can nodded: "Okay, then I'll check it out tomorrow."
"Everyone, go cook now, eat, and go to bed early tonight. Hopefully, we can go back tomorrow."
The waves have subsided, and the Dong Sheng is rocking less; it's time to cook.
Dry food is okay to eat occasionally, just to fill your stomach.
However, it's not okay to eat three meals a day as a meal.
Rice is still the only staple food we can have.
"good!"
Everyone readily agreed.
Once everyone was certain that the waves had subsided, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
I've been here for a full day and night. It's good to have work to do, so I'm not bored or having any random thoughts.
However, once you have free time, you tend to overthink.
After all, the family must have known that there was a typhoon in the sea.
And since they haven't sent any messages back home, their families must be worried.
Besides, after being away for so long, everyone is eager to go home.
There's never as much peace of mind being outside as being at home.
"By the way, there's no need to keep watch tonight. Everyone should get a good night's sleep."
...
If you go to bed early, you'll naturally wake up early too.
Feng Ye woke up before seven o'clock in the morning.
There's hardly any rain today, and the sky is much brighter, but the sun is nowhere to be seen.
Stepping out of the driver's seat, Feng Ye stood on the pier platform, gazing at the waves at the lagoon's outlet, his brow slightly furrowed.
The waves inside the lagoon aren't very big anymore, but they're still surging outside, though much smaller than yesterday.
If we were to sail back now, it would still be somewhat dangerous.
After everyone got up, they discussed it and contacted the Harvest ship again, deciding to wait until the afternoon to see how things went.
Although everyone was eager to get back, they couldn't risk their lives.
Safety is always the top priority.
Time passed little by little, and before we knew it, it was already afternoon.
Six or seven hours passed, the rain stopped completely, and the waves outside subsided a bit.
Feng Ye's brows relaxed slightly: "It should be fine now, we can go back."
Upon hearing this, everyone's spirits lifted.
Finally, I can go home and leave this place where I've stayed for two days and two nights.
"Shall we set off now?"
Ah-chan asked impatiently.
"Okay, let's set off now."
Feng Ye nodded, picked up the walkie-talkie, and connected to the Harvest number.
Immediately afterwards, the two ships started up one after the other and slowly sailed away from the temporary safe harbor.
As for the "C"-shaped island, no one had any intention of going there.
It had just rained, and everything was wet and slippery.
In addition, they were unfamiliar with the island, and they didn't know if there would be any danger if they went there rashly.
Therefore, it's best to leave here as soon as possible.
With the islands blocking the wind, you can't feel much wind in the lagoon.
However, once outside the lagoon, the wind suddenly picked up and the waves became much stronger.
As the ship sailed, waves churned constantly at the bow, splashing high into the air and surging onto the deck.
