Chapter 135: Free
Chapter 135
The wind is stormy, and the night is in the sky.
"Dad, are we going to die here?"
In the sound of heavy rain falling, a trembling word came from the night, thunder flashed, and under the crash of the waves was a small fishing boat, and there were two people on board.
A naked man, small in stature, clutched the side of the boat, looked at the sky in fear, the rain ran down his cheeks, and the other person was silent, with an oar in his hand, and swept and pushed against the surging waves, and the boat withdrew a distance directly by this force, without being overturned by the waves.
At this time, the rower freed his hand to wipe his face, and said: "Xiao Tao is not afraid, the waves will push us to the shore." ”
"Well, push it to the shore, Dad, I knew I wouldn't have ventured over to get the nail incense today." The person named Xiao Tao took a deep breath after saying this.
As soon as he held his breath, another wave fell, and the older man blocked the boat in the same way, wiped his hand over his face, and said to his son:
"Xiao Tao, it's my father who thinks badly, if it weren't for your watery nature and wanting to get more nail incense, why did he take you to such a far place from the island? Dad hurt you, no matter how good the water is, it's useless. ”
Another wave hit, and the boat continued to repeat the previous step.
It didn't look dangerous, but the person who was the father knew that he had no strength, he was pushed by the wind and waves, and he didn't know where he had gone, and he left the scope of the island, and he could only go to the real shore, and there was no hope at all.
"Dad, the child doesn't blame his father, if he doesn't come out to get incense, how can he marry his brother's daughter-in-law? The child just misses her mother, and her mother must be very sad when she knows that something happened to me and my father...... Dad, don't move, you can't run away, save some strength, the child will swim back with you for a while, you can swim as far as you can, in case you can survive. ”
Xiao Tao encountered another wave when he spoke, and by the light of lightning, after seeing that his father's movements became stiff, he gritted his teeth and said with determination.
When the father was willing to drag his son down at this time, he squeezed out a smile, "Xiao Tao, when Dad can't do it for a while, you can swim by yourself, Dad hopes that you can survive, don't worry about Dad, it's a pity that you have this ability, you can get a fragrance up when you go into the water for thirty zhang, you shouldn't encounter this wind and rain." ”
"No, we have to walk together, we will survive, and we will get more jiaxiang when the time comes." Xiao Tao can't run by himself regardless of his father, in fact, even if he runs by himself, he may not be able to run, the water is calm, but he always has to come up to ventilate, and he will lose his strength after a few times.
Boom, a wave fell on the undulating sea, and the boat could no longer exit, and the whole boat was overturned when it boarded, and when the father's man had no strength, he fell into the water and disappeared.
At the moment when the boat capsized, Xiao Tao took a deep breath, plunged his head into the water, twisted his body like a fish a few times, grabbed his father, kicked his legs at the same time, and his two heads were exposed to the water.
"Dad, let's go home, and you'll hold your breath when I exert myself in a while." Xiao Tao grabbed his father's arm and shouted, and immediately used force in his hands, when his father followed and held his breath, Xiao Tao took his father and plunged down again, and the waves swept over the position just now.
At the head of the wave, the two heads were exposed again, and they swam vigorously in the direction where the wave was going, which should be the shore.
Every time the wave comes, two people will dive into the water, not because they will not be affected by the current, but because they are afraid of being hung by floating objects on the water, even if it is a rotten fish, the thorn can cut a big hole on the body.
I don't know how long I swam, but when my father felt that there were a lot of bright dots in front of him, he was cold, and he knew that he was going to die, so he said weakly to his son: "Let go of me, swim back, and go back alive." ”
"I don't, I'll go back with my father." Xiao Tao stubbornly pulled his father to continue swimming, and he could hold on to such a long time in such weather, even the people who were fishing with bare hands in the Yellow River would feel ashamed when they saw it, but the power of heaven and earth, no matter how great the ability is, it is useless.
Swimming and swimming, Xiao Tao didn't want to do anything anymore, only mechanical movements remained, and his breathing rate was all instinctive.
Just when he was about to give up, he suddenly vaguely saw a little light flashing in front of him, thinking it was an illusion, but the light did not disappear, it was always there.
Xiao Tao's eyes lit up, thinking that he had met someone, that is, he was about to reach the shore, and he seemed to have the strength in his body again, and swam vigorously towards the place where the light was lit.
The lightning in the sky lit up from time to time, and in a trance, Xiao Tao found that the place seemed to be the location of a reef, and he couldn't care about it so much, and the reef was good, so he went to rest on it, and waited for his father to recover and then figure out a way.
It looks close, but if you want to swim over, it's not so simple, Xiao Tao stared, and only thought about swimming to the place in his heart, and didn't even care if the waves would carry something that could hurt people.
"Lao Wang, what are you still looking at in the middle of the night? There is no ship coming again, and it has been ten days, and a ship should have come to deliver things to us, but there was a strong wind and waves, and it seems that we will have to wait for tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. ”
In one of the lighthouses farthest from Qinzhou Bay, a man is looking at the sea with a clairvoyant, and a man is sitting next to a stove grilling fish, and the person who grills the fish has just grilled one and is talking as he hands it to the man holding the clairvoyant.
"Why don't you take a good look? What if a ship comes, and you are asleep when you were asked to look at the lights just now, and let the good officials know, you don't want to do it in the future, and when it is time for the rotation, you go back and say it yourself, otherwise it will be another matter when I say it. ”
Lao Wang turned his head and reached out to take the fish, and warned the griller once.
"Uncle Wang, I don't dare anymore, can you not say it? It's just the two of us, and no one else knows. "The fish griller was really scared now, he was in charge of cooking and watching the lights, and he slept at night when he needed the lights the most.
"Don't say? That's not good, you can say it yourself, pay attention in the future, you won't be punished, don't say it this time, you can still sleep next time, huh? Come on, help me see if there's anyone in the water? ”
Lao Wang didn't have any discussion at all, and as he spoke, he suddenly saw that under the light of the lightning, it seemed that two people were swimming towards him.
"How could anyone? Drowned. The man who grilled the fish came impatiently, and if it wasn't for the request, he didn't care, and took the clairvoyant to look there, it was pitch black, there was nothing, and when he was about to continue grilling the fish, another lightning bolt lit up.
"Uncle Wang, hurry, go over and save people, that kid is still swimming, if it doesn't work, there are more times to sink, less time to float, and there is still a person with him."
After the fish griller finished shouting, he threw down the clairvoyant and began to put a life jacket on his body.
