Chapter 532: Just One Step Away?
Lu Chixiao also had this intention: "I just discussed with my entourage, and I plan to leave as soon as possible." ”
"Still heading south?"
Speaking of which, it's still a question of course.
Right now, they're just blind people walking at night - I don't know how dark it is. May this darkness soon come to an end.
"Hmm. Try it for two more days. ”
Two days later, if he was still floating on the ocean like a headless fly, he planned to send a flare during the vigil. The Star Flare Gun has a long range of signals, and there should be a fleet to spot them.
If you really can't do it, just turn on all the tall functions of the yacht, and everyone will be surprised, it's better than running out of ammunition and food and dying on this sea.
After thinking about it, Lu Chixiao no longer hesitated, and informed everyone to take a short rest after lunch and set off on the boat.
Mrs. Lu took two sets of her wife's clothes to Xu Tiejun.
No way, the two sons are too tall, the shortest and smallest undershirts are estimated to be too big on the in-laws, and Lu Zhanfeng's clothes fit better in comparison.
"In-laws, Lao Lu hasn't worn these two clothes a few times, you will wear them first. Wait until you get back, and let me cut you a few new ones. ”
With the help of his son-in-law, Xu Tiejun shaved his beard and cut his hair, and then took the first hot bath in twelve years in the yacht bathtub.
Although the island also makes a fire every day to cook and boil water, there is no place to store hot water, and the kettle of coconut shell grinding can only be wiped with a coarse fiber towel woven from tree bark if you really want to take a hot bath.
"The in-laws are too polite!" Xu Tiejun did not refuse Mrs. Lu's kindness.
On the island, he was alone, and it didn't matter if he was wrapped in leaves or a waistcoat woven from bark, but he could be sandwiched between the neatly dressed people, and he dressed like a primitive man, and he almost had a spear in his hand.
thanked him and hurriedly went back to the bathroom to change his clothes.
After changing out, it seems to be a different person.
Lu Chixiao, who was guarding outside the bathroom, almost couldn't recognize his father-in-law when he saw him.
With such a hand, my father-in-law is quite young.
In fact, Xu Tiejun is indeed not old. Because he got married early, he is less than fifty years old this year, and the living environment on the island is inseparable from manual labor, and his body is as strong as an ox.
Looking at the face is actually not bad, but it is tanned, and the skin tone of the whole body is darker than bronze, and the gestures give people an inexplicable sense of shock.
Big Guy Lu couldn't help rubbing his chin and thinking: With such a figure and physical strength as my father-in-law, if I go back to arrange a blind date, there must be many single women comrades rushing to ask for it, right?
In the afternoon, the clouds completely enveloped the sky above this heaven and earth, and the island began to drift with rain again, and the group packed up and set off.
"Dad?" Xu Suizhu held an umbrella and found Xu Tiejun who was staring at the isolated island on the side of the deck.
"Why did you come out too? It's raining and it's cooling down a bit, don't catch a cold. Xu Tiejun came back to his senses and said hurriedly.
Raising his eyes and receiving a concerned look from his daughter, he smiled and said: "I just feel that the past twelve years have been like a dream, and I couldn't wake up for a long time, but now I finally woke up and can go home......!" It's a pity that I spent so much time building so many treehouses, especially the new ones, how much effort it took me!"
Xu Suizhu knew what her father meant: although she had been thinking about going home, after all, she had lived here for twelve years, and it was impossible to leave without feeling melancholy.
"Dad. She said softly, "When we go back, we will arrange the new island like this small island, plant flowers and plants, pick a few stout trees to build tree houses, build swings, and make coconut shells for daily necessities on the island...... When the holidays are over, we'll go and stay there, how about it?"
Xu Tiejun quickly raised his hand and wiped the corner of his eyes, and said with a chuckle: "Silly girl!"
When the father and daughter returned to the inner cabin, the course was also determined: they were still heading south.
The two brothers always felt that their speculation was correct.
Finally, after two days and one night, after a treacherous storm, not only did the sunny day come, but even the navigator, which had been quiet for many days, returned to normal.
Everyone raised their arms and cheered excitedly!
"Look, where are you now, how far are you from going home?" Lu Zhanfeng couldn't wait to ask in front of the navigator.
Eating seafood every day, he can't stand it anymore. Right now, I want to eat fluffy white rice!
After Lu Chixiao carefully studied the route, he was stunned for a moment: "It's not far." ”
It is indeed not far away, and not far ahead is the dark sand of the great-mother, the southernmost area of the motherland. Fifty or sixty nautical miles on, where they anchored before the tornado.
But the question is -
They're heading south! Extrapolating from the time zone difference, they're supposed to be in the North Atlantic. If you are in the South Pacific, wouldn't you drive all the way south to the equator or even the Tropic of Capricorn? How can you return to the Nansha Islands?
Moreover, judging from the time difference, shouldn't they have crossed almost half the world? Why are they still in the vicinity of the East Eighth District? The time difference is not more than an hour at most?
Incredible!
I don't understand!
All in all, it's weird!
But anyway, it's so good to be a step away from home!
"Brother and sister, do you still want to float on the high seas and see the scenery?" Lu Dashao asked jokingly.
Without waiting for Xu Suizhu to answer, her father-in-law hurriedly said: "If you want to come to the high seas to see the scenery, you can do it next time, this time it's been too long, let's go back first! My in-laws have been away from home for 12 years, and I must be very worried about ...... at home."
He wouldn't want to come back a second time anyway.
If you hadn't come, it would have been so comfortable!
——Wake up in the morning, face the sunrise, take a walk around the coconut grove avenue, and play boxing; if you don't want to make breakfast, go to the resort canteen to order a few favorite pasta, and after eating, accompany the old man to the Houhai reef beach to fish, or go to the teahouse of the old five families to drink tea and listen to the play; accompany the wife to take a nap and watch the old men play chess, or accompany the wife to the living area for a stroll, watch the sunset at Xiaowankou in the evening, and come back from dinner by the way......
In short, in Lu Zhanfeng's view, Fuju Island is much more beautiful than the open sea of Rauschzi! Why bother to come here at the expense of rice and vegetables, not to mention dumplings and noodles, and almost unable to return home! I am too old to think about it before I come back for the second time!
Who doesn't want to miss white rice, fresh vegetables and fruits, freshwater fish, shrimp, chickens, ducks, and pork that can't be eaten at sea!
Xu Suizhu is embarrassed.
How could she have expected to encounter a tornado! and the whole yacht was swept into another part of the sea, if you know...... Ahem, I'm sure I'll still choose to come! If I don't come, how can I take my dad home!
But her father-in-law is right: her father is very worried about the family. So I'm sure I'll go home first! I love it here, and I'll have a chance to come back in the future.
