Wu An and his team did not fabricate anything.
They sat on the ground.
A ship is not home.
The food wasn't very appealing because it was served directly in an iron basin, but it tasted pretty good.
Everyone ate and drank.
The food was all eaten up, and everyone was burping with satisfaction.
After finishing their final smoke, Wu An and his group returned to their fishing boat.
Old Fu didn't drink much.
They said they had to keep watch.
Wu An's advice was unnecessary, but he ended up being scolded by Old Man Fan.
At sea, one must never let one's guard down.
If you are careless, the sea will teach you a lesson right away.
Hearing what Old Man Fan said, Old Man Fu nodded in agreement.
The two old men discussed it and decided that one would stay up for the first half of the night and the other for the second half, so that the young people could get a good night's sleep.
A breeze picked up at night, and it felt cool on my skin, much more comfortable than air conditioning.
After discussing it, Wu An and the other two decided to simply sleep on the deck, where they could open their eyes and see the sky filled with stars.
There are so many stars.
Moreover, there was no obstruction in the line of sight, and one could even clearly see the different sizes of the stars.
Human thoughts are magnified infinitely in the face of the starry sea.
Before Wu An could even immerse himself in the moment, he was interrupted by the stench of sweat and fish wafting from the side.
I smelled it.
It floated over from Aqing.
Wu An kicked him: "I told you to wipe yourself with water, didn't you?"
Aqing muttered, "I'm lazy."
"Go wash up."
"oh."
Aqing got up and took a quick shower.
I also brought a blanket when I came back.
Wu An was surprised: "You could even think of that?"
Aqing scratched his head: "Old Fu told me to take it."
The three people lay side by side, sharing a blanket to cover their stomachs.
Not long after.
The three of them then started snoring, one after the other.
After a while, Old Fu came over, looked around, put the blanket that Aqing had torn off back on, went back to his place, and lit a cigarette.
...
The sea at night is not quiet.
Many predators are active at night, such as orcas.
Why?
Because I was hungry.
Tiger quietly left the tribe.
Orcas rely on advanced sonar systems to locate their prey, and Tiger is no exception.
He left his group quietly because he discovered a colony of sea turtles.
After discovering the sea turtle, Tiger remembered that he had something important to do.
His good friend asked him to bring a sea turtle when they met.
He definitely has to take care of this small matter.
He's the most polite orca ever.
After quickly approaching the turtle colony, he did not choose one randomly.
Since it's a gift, it should be carefully chosen to be the best one.
After arriving near a small island, the sea turtle group stopped and did not continue wandering.
Tiger still did not approach rashly.
There was still plenty of time before his agreed meeting time with his friend, so he had all the time to choose a gift.
Observing from a distance, I noticed that these sea turtles seemed to be eating something.
It kept chewing and chewing in its mouth.
Moreover, he noticed that most of these sea turtles had barnacles on their bodies, which was not aesthetically pleasing.
It didn't meet his expectations for a gift.
Time passed second by second.
A baby sea turtle separated from its group and swam alone to a coral reef.
Tiger swam over silently.
He set his sights on the sea turtle. Although it wasn't very big, there wasn't a single barnacle on its shell, as if it had been cleaned off.
It would make a very suitable gift.
Tiger observed the sea turtle's swimming trajectory for a while and swam ahead of it.
Then he lay down on the coral reef.
The little sea turtle swam slowly forward, as if taking a stroll in its own backyard.
That is indeed the case.
His tribe lived and thrived near this small island.
Then he discovered a big one.
Normally, he would run away if he saw something that big.
However, he did not sense any killing intent emanating from this large creature.
He recognized the large creature as an orca, so he didn't approach it rashly.
The old man in his family had told him that one of the most dangerous killers in the sea was this sea snail!
He withdrew.
Tiger went forward.
He fled.
Tiger chases.
Before the baby turtle could react, it was bitten by Tiger.
That's it.
The little sea turtle's vision went black for a moment, and then it felt itself flying.
The baby sea turtle was bewildered.
How did I start flying in the sea?
He opened his eyes and found himself swimming forward at an unimaginable speed.
He shook his head from side to side and realized that he was being carried forward by Tiger.
He felt even more puzzled.
Where is this big guy taking him?
As he passed by the small island, he saw his people.
Goodbye, Mom, I'm setting sail tonight...
No...that's not right!
Mom.
I've been kidnapped by Hailiuzi!
Quick... help...
The baby sea turtles seemed to be riding a high-speed train, "whoosh," as they passed by the island.
...
The boat rocked gently with the waves, like a large cradle.
After daybreak, the sunlight was very bright.
Wu An yawned and sat up. Although he was supposed to be sleeping on the deck, he slept very soundly.
He slept soundly until dawn.
I looked around.
Aqing and Meiwu were curled up, still asleep. Old Futou, who had been on guard for the first half of the night, was also still asleep.
He got up, stood by the boat, and first took a comfortable pee.
Hearing a noise from inside the boat shed, he turned around and saw that Old Fu had already gotten up.
"Good morning, Lao Fu."
"morning."
What time is it?
"5:30."
"No wonder you felt so good when you woke up. You must have slept for eight or nine hours. Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Old Fu waved his hand: "No need, I'm too old to sleep much."
As they were talking, Aqing and Meiwu both woke up. Old Fu asked, "Go collect the earth cages?"
Wu An shook his head: "No rush, let's eat first."
"Go collect it after you finish eating."
Next, all that needs to be done is collect the fish traps. There's nothing else to do, so there's no need to rush. We need to eat well to have the energy to work.
Have a simple breakfast.
Looking at the ingredients on the boat, Wu An decided to make a simple and unpretentious seafood porridge.
The first step is to wash the rice.
Next comes processing the main ingredient, baby lobster.
I took the smaller ones, about fifteen or sixteen, enough for about two per person. I cleaned them, then split them open with a knife and fried them briefly in oil.
Cut the small yellow croaker into cubes and fry them together in oil.
Finally, add the rinsed rice and stir-fry together, then add water and bring to a boil.
Not long after.
Seafood congee will be fine.
Sprinkle on some chopped vegetables and green onions, and the flavor will come out.
Fan Dali was attracted by the aroma and asked what delicious food had been cooked so early in the morning. Wu An told them to bring their own bowls to eat.
Thankfully, the pot was big enough, just enough for one big bowl for each person.
After everyone finished eating, they were all still a little hungry, and Aqing even licked the bowl so clean that it didn't need washing.
After finishing the meal.
After smoking a cigarette, without Wu An saying a word, Old Fu went to set sail for Twin Islands.
