"This ...... Compass?" Trist in the treetops took the small object handed by Eric, and carefully rubbed it, and it could be seen that this compass was retro-shaped, neither like the product of modern civilization, nor like the surface people of regressive civilization could make it.

"Hey, be careful", Eric reminded nervously, after all, this is the treasure of the Light Lake tribe.

Suddenly, Trist recalled that tragic day, the sword in the hand of his rival Echo, and the shape of that sword, in retrospect, seemed to be out of step with the weapons commonly used by the tribesmen......

Memories of weapon enthusiasts in previous lives came to mind, and that sword, with its parallel blades, long oval head, wide blade, and hilt large enough for both hands, was a very distinctive weapon. Under the battle that day, the battle knives given to him by the Guanghu tribe seemed to have a slight gap. It's just that the limited vision in the white fog that day, coupled with the fact that the battle was beaten too badly, was pressed and beaten all the time, and was finally chased and chopped, so that Trist didn't pay attention to the weapon in the hands of the Echo Overseer for a while, and now in retrospect, it seems to be .......

Coupled with the compass from the Ice Country, Trist touched his chin and felt that the water in the Ice Country that had just been withdrawn seemed to be quite deep.

"Did you meet a shark later?" , Trist then asked, and suddenly it occurred to him, and the fast oar said proudly that Eric had returned with the shark's corpse, which made Trist feel a little stupid about the question just now, and he hurriedly changed his words, "I mean...... I mean, the three of you managed to hunt a shark? ”

"It's not one, it's a bunch of ......" at this moment, Eric still seems to have lingering palpitations......

Trist: "......."

。。。。。。

On the second day of sailing, Eric and the others landed on a small island, which was discovered by the fishing team of the Guanghu tribe in the famine year, and also became a temporary garrison for the hunting party to go to sea. However, as fishing became more and more dangerous, the Guanghu tribe cultivated farmland in the swamps of Silver Moon Bay, and the demand for food was not so strong, and the island was gradually abandoned. Eric had been here as a child, and that time he had come here with his uncle, who was the leader, to welcome the fishing team that had returned with a full load, but it was that time that Eric got the bad news that Abba had died in the mouth of the shark........

This is also one of the destinations of Eric's trip, and he wants to come here to remember Abba, who died heroically for the tribe.

With her back against the tree, Luna quietly looked at the boy sitting on the seashore and playing the conch horn towards the distant sea, her eyes were a little misty, and her fair and slender hands tightly grasped the conch ornament that hung around her neck all year round. Along the way, Eric looked at this accessory many times, and although he covered it up well, Luna had a constitution strengthened by black blood, how could he not notice it?

It was clear that Eric knew the chic Conch, he wanted to ask but didn't, she wanted to say but didn't, and neither the boy nor the girl wanted to say it......

After a short rest, the three of them set sail again, all the way north, along the sea area where the Guanghu tribe's fathers set nets to catch fish. Soon, the island disappeared from view. Three hours later, Eric was about the same as he was, preparing a phrase to convince his friends to return home.

The storm came suddenly.

Neither Luna nor Derek heard Eric clearly, but as the wind around them grew stronger, they didn't have time to think about anything else. The manic wind made the ship move fast, but the rough and turbulent waves below made the ship extremely unstable. Erik, who had a lot of experience on the lake, hurriedly began to retract his sails, and at the same time tried to remind his two companions in the loudest voice, but this did not bring any luck to the small flat-bottomed fishing boat. It didn't take long for the fierce sea breeze to blow out the fire that had been burning on the ship, and the layers of clouds had long obscured the sky, and the surroundings were plunged into a gloomy darkness, and the clouds overhead were thick, and from time to time bursts of lightning flashed, and dense raindrops began to fall rapidly. Faced with this situation, Luna was a little flustered, Derek clenched the wooden oars and shook it hard to resist the rough waves, Eric ran fast on the boat to keep the ship balanced, he only had time to stuff the only sheepskin raft in the cabin into Luna's hands, as for the Derek brothers, Eric could only secretly apologize~~

The waves descended as if the sky had collapsed overhead, and the ship in the hazy environment was swallowed up in an instant, and soon rushed out of the waves, and Eric fell into the sea, relying on the water nature of more than ten years of fishing in the lake, struggling desperately under the dark sea level, but being covered by the turbulent current, and disappearing into the deep sea under Derek's terrified gaze.

Luna and the sheepskin raft were thrown out by the turbulent hull, her purple shawl curls scattered in the water, her azure eyes widened and her cheeks bulged, and she struggled to hold on to the raft, but she choked on several mouthfuls of water at once, and her lungs became more and more scarce in oxygen, but she was eventually swallowed by the water. It's just that just when she couldn't hold on to open her mouth, a figure leaned in the direction of the right side of her body, and the familiar face made her can't help but be surprised and annoyed, but it seemed to make her a little angry, so the already shaky mouth couldn't hold on at all, and the sea water rushed in, and everything in front of her seemed to be turned upside down into chaos. It wasn't until she felt the ubiquitous sea water disappear in the haze that Luna finally regained some of her senses, and after throwing up a large amount of sea water in the violent storm of the night, she raised her hand and slapped the face of the person next to her, and then her eyes went black, and she fell into a coma.

Storms come and go as fast as they come.

Storm.

With a gloomy face, Derek tugged on the rope and pulled a man and a woman dying on a sheepskin raft onto the boat, his eyes swept over Eric like a knife over and over again, and then he snorted and looked at Luna nervously.

Eric's lips were swollen, and the red fingerprints could be clearly seen on his right cheek, and he touched his nose weakly, after all, it was just a matter of interest, and he had to give Luna a breath in time to prevent Luna from suffocating in the sea......

Although the boys and girls of the tribe are half informal, Eric's actions just now seem to be too abrupt.......

As the night falls, Luna wakes up, and the atmosphere between the three of them is a little unnatural.

"I think, we have to go back", Eric quickly broke the silence, "our supplies have almost all been swept away by the previous wind and waves, even fresh water, there is not much left......"

"Agreed," Luna said weakly, the escape had drained a lot of her stamina.

“...... I'm okay with that", Derek said angrily, in fact, he wanted to stab Eric for his brainless shark hunting plan, but feared that Luna would be in danger again, so he cautiously did not say anything.

Noticing the position of the North Star in the sky, Eric took out the compass in his hand a little nervously and checked it again, and suddenly, his face became tense.

"Guys", Eric swallowed, "we're in big trouble......"

Eric would have said that the storm during the day caused them to deviate from their original course for at least ten nautical miles, and the original course was to go straight north, all the way to the frozen natural fishing grounds, which was also discovered by the ancestors of the Guanghu tribe and benefited their descendants (about the great shoals of Quebec........

However, judging from the compass and the position of the North Star in the sky to assist in positioning, their position should be nearly 20 nautical miles east of their destination!

The most important thing is that this is what my fathers called a dangerous sea, a shark-infested deep sea........

Eric's heart sank straight down. After all, he is kind by nature, and he really doesn't want to send himself to death and implicate his companions, not to mention, these two companions, together with him, saved the clansmen of the Guanghu tribe from the invaders of the Ice Country three days ago, and Eric has always felt that he owes them a favor......

It's just that the dorsal fin of a shark has already appeared in the sea in front of me......
