Wu An pulled A Qing back to the cabin.
Wu Ping inquired about the situation out of curiosity.
Aqing exclaimed excitedly, "Amazing! Absolutely amazing!"
"We helped the sea turtle shave its head before, and today the sea turtle has brought in an orca to help."
"We charged those orcas a toll."
"They seem to understand human speech."
"No, it means I'll only listen to my brother."
Wu Ping grinned and said, "Ah An, I didn't expect you to have people at sea. No, they're not people, they're more like helpers."
Wu An coughed twice and said, "It's their spirituality that's the problem; it has nothing to do with me."
He staggered over to Old Fu and explained the situation.
Old Fu was also surprised: "Really? If you put it that way, it's quite a coincidence. The orca in front does seem to be leading the way."
Amidst the wind and waves, a small island can be seen in the distance.
Old Fu's expression turned serious: "With such strong winds and waves, it's impossible to observe the reefs."
He didn't say that even if they saw it and wanted to avoid it, they might not be able to escape due to the force of the wind and waves.
Wu An saw the orca leading the way change direction and shouted, "Old Fu, follow the orca."
Old Fu's eyes widened: "You really want to?"
Wu An countered, "If we don't follow, are you confident you can get close to the island?"
Old Fu gritted his teeth: "I'll listen to you."
Wu An looked to both sides of the fishing boat, and as the boat adjusted its direction, the orcas on both sides began to swim along with it.
Are they joking?
Or were they actually protecting the fishing boats?
Who cares!
The question facing Wu An and his team was not a choice.
Just as Aqing said, the sea turtle repays its debt of gratitude!
Although what Ah Qing said was a bit too far-fetched, he was willing to believe that these intelligent sea turtles were following the fishing boat in this situation because they wanted to help him.
Led by the orca, the fishing boat slowly approached the island.
As expected.
Old Fu pointed ahead and excitedly shouted, "Look at this island, it looks like the upper body of a person. One side is a cliff, while the other side looks like a person with outstretched arms making an embracing gesture."
"We are now heading into the embrace of the bay."
"This place is a natural haven."
"I've seen this island before, but because there are a lot of reefs, I've never gotten close to it."
He became more and more agitated as he spoke.
I couldn't help but be excited. If we could get into the bay, we could survive!
Wu An was also very happy and said, "Old Fu, it's a good thing we had you, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to get here."
Old Fu laughed and said, "We should also thank the orca that led the way."
Wu An nodded.
yes.
We should also thank them.
...
Xiaoxi Village.
The weather suddenly changed, with wind and rain, and everyone was busy bringing in their laundry.
Mei Yueqin packed up the clothes, looked at the wind and rain outside, her heart pounding with anxiety and panic. She called Wu An and Wu Ping.
They are all out of service area.
Unable to get in touch!
This means that Wu An and the others are still at sea.
Wu Yingwei called, saying the waves were a bit high and he had to go to the dock to keep an eye on things, so he wouldn't be back for lunch. Mei Yueqin hesitated for a long time before saying, "Dad, there's something..."
"A'an and the others have gone out to sea."
"I can't get in touch with them either, they should... they should still be at sea."
"Dad, what should we do?" Mei Yueqin clutched her phone, her voice trembling with tears. "The wind is getting stronger and stronger, and the waves at sea must be even bigger."
"Not necessarily," Wu Yingwei reassured her, saying, "Just keep calling them."
"I'm going to the dock."
Don't worry too much.
After hanging up the phone, Wu Yingwei looked at the surging sea, his wrinkled face full of worry.
He immediately called the maritime police.
The Coast Guard responded quickly, simultaneously notifying the Rescue Bureau and the Maritime Search and Rescue Center. This was the third emergency call they had received.
Wu Yingwei then learned that the Chen family had also called the police because something had happened at sea!
In contrast to the situation where Wu An could not be contacted, the Chen family took the initiative to report the incident to the police and have been contacted. The relevant departments have responded positively.
Wu Yingwei quickly reported to the village that the militia needed to cooperate with the rescue operation.
He should have been responsible.
But right now, he simply doesn't have time to worry about that.
Upon learning of the situation, Village Chief Shen immediately summoned Chen Gui.
Old Xie saw Wu Yingwei standing in the wind and rain, and came over to greet him in his raincoat: "Old Wu, we're going out to sea today with the Chen family's trawlers."
"Although the weather is bad now, it's still a trawler, so there shouldn't be any major problems."
Wu Yingwei said, "The Chen family just called the police, saying they had an accident at sea."
Old Xie was taken aback and said, "That's pretty unlucky."
"Are you cooperating with this operation?"
"I'm not participating anymore."
"Then what are you still standing here for? Come on, let's go to my place to take shelter from the rain."
Wu Yingwei shook his head: "Wu An also went out to sea today."
Old Xie's expression changed drastically: "What?"
"Why did he go out to sea too?"
"Well... Wu An is a lucky guy, he'll definitely come back safely."
"Come on, come on, there's no point in just standing here watching."
"You can see it clearly even in my store."
Old Xie pulled Wu Yingwei away.
We arrived at the store.
"Can't you get in touch with them?" Old Xie poured himself a cup of hot tea and asked, "Have you called the police?"
Wu Yingwei nodded.
Old Xie also looked up at the sea, took a sip of hot tea, and said, "Well, there's nothing we can do now... we can only wait."
Not long after.
Chen Gui arrived with his men.
Wu Yingwei immediately went to greet him.
When Chen Gui saw Wu Yingwei, he was taken aback and frowned, saying, "Yingwei, so you're here."
"Since you're here, why did the old village chief call me here?"
"This awful weather..."
"What's the situation now?"
His face was full of displeasure. In this kind of weather, wouldn't it be nice to stay at home, watch TV, and have a few drinks? Only a fool like Wu Yingwei would have nothing better to do than go to the dock.
Wu Yingwei said, "There are two dangerous situations in our village."
"First, there's the Chen family. Their trawler ran aground and is currently being towed to the dock. Relevant departments have responded actively and need our cooperation."
"Secondly, Wu An, who set sail from the town's dock, is currently out of contact."
"Oh, there are two more, Wu... Wu An?" Chen Gui realized, his eyes widening: "You mean your second son is missing?"
Wu Yingwei nodded with a stern face.
Other villagers gathered around and quickly comforted Wu Yingwei, telling him not to worry or get upset, and saying some auspicious things.
Chen Gui patted Wu Yingwei on the shoulder and said, "Your second son is doing well at sea, so he'll probably be fine."
"Since you've already called the police..."
"Then let's wait and see. Once the professionals arrive, we'll cooperate."
Wu Yingwei kept a straight face and didn't say a word; he was extremely anxious!
They call it cooperation, but in reality, it's just waiting.
All we can do is wait.
There's nothing else we can do.
If the docks are already raging with waves, what must it be like at sea?
