Chapter 55: The Lovely Fisherman

This kind of comfortable life, An Yixia is no longer adaptable, she has no way to live here on vacation, her father's situation is unknown, and Jiangcheng's situation is not clear.

Although she knows that her stepmother is not a good person, she is still worried about whether the departure of her and her father will affect her stepmother and younger siblings.

These days, I have been thinking about it over and over again, and I have already made up my mind to leave the island.

No matter what kind of heart Zhan Yinfan had arranged for her, she was very grateful, but she couldn't sit still here.

Another day passed, and after Zhan Yinvan came, An Yixia and his sixth sister-in-law got along harmoniously and naturally. Nothing had changed, and she heard the sixth sister-in-law secretly call Uncle Ming to tell her about her.

For example, "Miss An is very happy today, she ate a little more, and she went to the beach in the afternoon, picked a bouquet of flowers and came back to insert a bottle", "Miss An may have forgiven the eldest young master, and laughed a lot today", "Miss An said that there are too few vegetables on the island, Uncle Ming, you can send some fresh vegetables"......

Her performance during the day should reassure the sixth sister-in-law, right?

An Yixia lay on the bed, looking at the sea and the starry sky outside the window, waiting for the silence downstairs.

At two o'clock in the night, An Yixia wrapped herself in a thick windbreaker, carried the bag she carried when she came, pulled the sheet and tied it to the balcony, grabbed the quilt twisted into a rope and slid down from the second floor, and stepped under the starlight to leave this palace-like villa.

There was a small boat waiting for her by the sea, and she had negotiated with the fishermen while she was walking. The fisherman took her on a fishing boat to an island a hundred nautical miles away to take a cruise ship, but there were no large cruise ships on the island, and the sea area was too vast for it to go to sea rashly.

An Yixia sat on the fisherman's boat, looking at the vast world of the sea of stars, and his heart was unusually quiet.

The fisherman said, "Aren't you afraid to leave the island at this time?"

"Don't be afraid. An Yixia smiled.

With a local accent of English, An Yixia stayed here for more than a week, and was able to understand and answer fluently.

"The advantage of going to sea now is that the sea is calm and the wind and waves are small. If there is a wind and waves, we will both be swallowed by the sea. The fisherman sped up and chatted with An Yixia with a roar.

An Yixia looked at the fisherman's not tall back, and admired it a little: "Have you ever encountered wind and waves?"

"Of course, when we work at sea, it's common for us to encounter wind and waves. Experienced old people will look at the sky, and if the wind and waves are too strong, they will not be able to go to sea, and avoid the wind and waves before walking. When working at sea, when the wind and waves come, there is no place to hide, and generally fishing boats and small and medium-sized speedboats like us are swept into the whirlpool in the blink of an eye. ”

"It's too dangerous. An Yixia couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes, man, how can he compete with nature? The power of nature is infinite. The fisherman said, "But don't be afraid of it tonight, for the sea is so quiet that we all say that it sleeps well and can walk tonight." ”

An Yixia nodded clearly, and when he talked during the day, he listened to the old man next to the fisherman say "asleep" and "can walk", which turned out to be what he meant.

"People are like a drop in the ocean, between the vast sea and the sky, small is less than dust. An Yixia sighed softly.

The fisherman said, "The sea is lovely when it is not mad and angry, but now it is a quiet sleeping girl." ”

An Yixia nodded, listening to the fisherman's description, and could feel a little bit of the awe and love of the fishermen who lived by the sea to the sea.

An Yixia looked up at the sky, and there was a dazzling starry sky above his head, brilliant and brilliant. A flat boat walks alone on the sea, and there is only the roar of the motor on the silent sea level. The boat passed, and the white waves flew.

They are like ants swallowed by darkness, and in the vast ocean, they do not feel their presence.

The fisherman said, "You went into the cabin to avoid the waves and the wind, and when the day dawned and you came out to see the sunrise, it was beautiful." ”

An Yixia was moved by the fisherman's words and entered the cabin. The whole boat is not big in total, and it is just such a small cabin that can shelter from the wind and rain.

There was a chair in the cabin, a wooden plank that was only large enough for one person to lie flat. Now there are fishing nets and some fishing equipment piled on top. An Yixia looked at it, and finally sat on the chair and closed his eyes to rest, without touching the things on the plank.

I fell asleep groggily, and there was always the sound of soft and heavy waves in my ears. When I woke up, it was already dark.

She hurried out of the cabin, and the fisherman laughed at her.

"Today's sunrise is not beautiful, the sky is good-looking, the sunhead garden is like a compass, today has not been brightened, the top of the head is gray, the sun can not come out in the gray fog, and now it is a little light. I was worried about whether it would rain, but luckily the sun was out. ”

An Yixia smiled, stood at the bow of the boat, looked up at the sky, the sun sprinkled down from the faint clouds, like a layer of veil, very soft and bright.

Between the vast sea and sky, she is independent of the center, and there is a little bit of the pathos of a lonely person.

"It's beautiful. ”

"Yes, it's beautiful, and as long as it doesn't rain, it's good weather for us. Of course, you haven't seen a good sun, the morning sun is very beautiful, and the whole sea is golden, I can't say the specific beauty. The fisherman excitedly said, "You have to see it with your own eyes." ”

"When I lived on the island, I saw the sunrise with my own eyes, and the moment it came out of the sea, it was shining brightly and very beautiful. ”

"That's right, that's right, it's sacred. The fisherman nodded in approval.

An Yixia sat on the bow of the boat, hunger hit, the fisherman turned on the self-driving mode, took the cake and water out and gave An Yixia a share.

"It's going to take another two or three hours to get to the island, and when you get there, I'll take you to buy a ticket first." The fisherman said.

An Yixia nodded: "Thank you." ”

"It doesn't matter, our island is too small, like the one we live on, there are hundreds of dozens of nautical miles around, and there are people from all over the world. ”

An Yixia suddenly asked curiously: "Then the island where we lived, where did the people go from in the first place?"

"I heard from the old people on the island, at first it was to escape World War II, a soldier fled there, and finally he couldn't walk, so he set up camp there, and over the years, we lived from generation to generation. ”

"So the people on the island are all descendants of that soldier?" An Yixia couldn't help but ask.

"No, no, there were refugees who fled the war, but now everyone is like a family. There are about 30 families on the island. The good houses you see are built on the island by outsiders. We couldn't afford to live, so they came to our island and gave us a lot of supplies and asked us to help them build houses and roads. You don't know that two or three years ago, our island was full of wooden and grass houses, but now there are buildings, and the houses built by the rich are very beautiful. ”

The fisherman gulped down the hard bread in his hand, drank a few sips of water, and began to take the helm himself.

An Yixia is not used to drinking this water.

The water on the islands is not so cleanly filtered, not even as clean as the tap water in the city, let alone pure water. It tastes a little salty and salty, and it is the salty taste of seawater.

An Yixia looked at the sky, and there was no end to the connection between water and sky.

She passed by in a piece of turquoise water, and the bright sunlight above her head sprinkled on the sea, sparkling and beautiful.

After their shadow on the sea had no tail, An Yixia finally saw the oasis.

For another half an hour, the fishing boat stopped by the sea, and An Yixia jumped down and stepped on the sea water to go ashore. The fisherman strode ahead, turning back and saying, "We have to walk for a while, we are under the island, and it costs money to get to the dock to get to the boat." Our side of the past, the same. ”

An Yixia didn't make a sound, and buried his head in the follow.

After walking for half an hour, I finally saw people, and I also saw a lot of yellow-skinned Asians, which made An Yixia feel more cordial.

She still didn't know where she was, so she asked the fisherman, the island they lived on originally had no name, and then she heard from outsiders that the whole island looked like a star from the sky, so it was called Xingzi Island.

But obviously, this kind of casual name cannot be found on the Internet. What's more, she is like being isolated from the world during this time, and she can't use it without an Internet mobile phone, so she can't get information.

After walking for about twenty minutes, we arrived at the pier.

The fisherman asked An Yixia to go to the window to buy a ticket, An Yixia asked the person clearly, it turned out that she was still on the high seas, and she saw the place where the cruise ship could go, and the closest to the land of the motherland was the port of Pudolia.

An Yixia had never walked so far alone, and after buying the ticket, the fisherman was still waiting for her on the side.

She looked up and saw the fisherman standing in the sun, his lips chapped and smiling at her, his dark skin glowing, and his eyes unusually bright.

An Yixia smiled heartily: "Thank you, I invite you to eat." ”

"No, no, no, I have to rush back to Xingzi Island, I don't have any money on me. The fisherman said.

"I have this. An Yixia raised his hand, and a thin bracelet on his wrist glistened in the sun.

She doesn't have any extra money on her, she can't use the money in the card, and most of the money here can only be paid in cash. The mobile phone payment that is popular in China is not to be thought about here, so this broken diamond bracelet that has accompanied her for many years can only stay here.

"Let's go, I'm going to eat anyway. With you, you are an expert, and no one else can deceive me. An Yixia invited again, with a sincere smile in her eyes.

The fisherman smiled embarrassedly, then nodded, "Well, you're right. Then, deduct it from your salary?"

An Yixia hurriedly shook his head, "No, no, no, I can't miss a point that I said I would give you." ”

The fisherman laughed innocently again, showing a mouthful of white teeth and a shy face.

The two found a nearby restaurant and ordered something to eat. When she ordered something, An Yixia asked the owner, who readily agreed to exchange the bracelet for food and recommended them the most popular food in the restaurant.

An Yixia and the fisherman sat at the dining table, eating seafood baked rice and all kinds of delicious seafood dishes, the fisherman couldn't let go at first, seeing that An Yixia was very natural, he didn't care about him, so he let go of eating.

"Sure enough, people can make this money, it's all these things, but we don't have this taste when we get it ourselves. ”

An Yixia smiled and suddenly asked, "How many years have you been fishing?"

The fisherman raised his eyes: "What is there to worry about, the sea is like a docile beast, it is still safe if it does not approach when it is manic." Like today's weather, how docile. ”

When the words fell, the fisherman tore off a crab rake: "I went to sea with my family when I was a few years old, and I have been making a living from the sea for thirteen years. ”

An Yixia was stunned, "So how old are you?"
