Chapter 296: Sea Fish Sashimi
The sky was getting brighter and brighter, and I could see that where the sea and the sky were connected, some golden light was slowly shining through...... Lying on the sea and watching the sunrise is still something that has never happened before.
The other day, I watched the sunrise on that huge freighter, and it was a shocking experience, and now, lying in the water, almost the same perspective as the sea level, is even more amazing.
A ray of light, like a sword, was the first to break out of the clouds.
Then, the trembling fireball seemed to rise from the bottom of the sea suddenly, and she seemed to be right in front of my eyesβ
I felt my heart start to beat faster, I don't know why, the moment she rose, I clearly felt the power of life, the power of heavy power!
The mist rose from the sea, and I felt like I was in a fairyland, and those fairy aura, in the dense breath of the morning light, became more and more beautiful.
Gradually, the sun became more and more intense and dispelled the fog on the sea. I could see all around me β still the same as yesterday, a vast sea, without any ships or islands.
I started to feel hungry and thirsty.
My body was immersed in the seawater, and I felt that my whole body was about to become edema, and my body temperature was slowly dropping, and the dehydration was very serious. I quickly took a few sips of the refill and ate a small piece of compressed biscuit.
If I didn't have these treasures in my backpack and replenish my energy and hydration in time, I estimate that I would have died in about ten hours at most. Physician Liu said that a person who is immersed in seawater can survive for 12 hours at a water temperature of 15 to 20 degrees. In a water temperature of 10 to 15 degrees, most people can survive for 6 hours; In the water temperature of 5 to 10 degrees, more than half of the people can survive for more than 1 hour, and below 5 degrees, it is difficult to say, it is estimated that it will be finished in ten minutes......
I did the math, and it had been more than 30 hours since the storm the night before...... Without these high-calorie biscuits, my body temperature would drop very quickly, and the situation would not be optimistic. Luckily, the water here is not particularly cold, and the sun rays violently during the day, and the temperature is at least 28 degrees Celsius...... However, this is not an option, and the water will be drunk quickly, even with compressed biscuits.
In fact, the biggest enemy of self-rescue at sea is the fear from the heart - this Dr. Liu told me a lot...... Last night, I fought the shadow, in fact, it is very likely that I was fighting the fear in my heart, and now it seems that I succeeded...... By overcoming these, I will be able to deal with more complex and difficult situations!
The first thing to solve is the problem of water, which needs to be prepared...... I had to find a solution before I drank all the water in my backpack, and then I continued to spread the distress powder in the sea, hoping that planes and boats would see it......
When I was at a loss, I suddenly saw the net in my hand!
There was a large school of fish swimming in the net, shaking their heads and jumping around...... That's great! These marine fish are a natural water and energy supplement!
I used to eat sashimi in restaurants, but now I finally have the opportunity to try my hand at the original marine fish sashimi!
I tied the drawstring of that net around my waist, then pulled the Swiss Army knife out of my backpack, opened one of the sharp hooks, and through the crack in the net, hooked a palm-sized fish. The little fish was struggling desperately, and I let go of the net, put my hand into the net, and caught the little fish.
Next, how to eat? Slice? How to cut? I haven't done this before, but ...... Now, I can only explore it slowly by myself!
I cut off the head of the fish, and the blood flowed out desperately...... It occurred to me that if I ran out of water in my backpack, I would only have to drink the raw blood of these fish.
Then I scraped the scales, cut open its belly, removed all the internal organs, rinsed the whole fish in the sea several times, and then used a very small and sharp blade from a Swiss Army knife to cut off the tender flesh from the belly of the little fish little by little.
I was holding a piece of white and tender fish, and was about to put it in my mouth to chew, when I suddenly remembered that there were some treasures in my backpack, which was a toothpaste-like seasoning, and I heard from Dr. Liu that he also added a lot of sterilizing things to it, and sticking a little seasoning to those raw meats can eliminate all bacteria and parasites in the body! It's wonderful...... I quickly grabbed the sauce from my backpack, squeezed it out like toothpaste, stuck it to the piece of raw fish, and put it in my mouth β oh my God, it tasted delicious! The raw meat of marine fish is very tender and crispy, and with seasonings, it is even more delicious!
I really didn't expect to be able to enjoy such delicious food in this vast sea......
In less than a few moments, I had eaten all the fish...... I caught a larger one in the net, and I couldn't tell what kind of breed it was, it seemed to be a grouper. This time, I was more experienced than before, and I disposed of the internal organs of the fish in three or two clicks, and then slowly cut the meat, starting with the fattest part of the belly, then the back of the fish...... Because there is only one seasoning, and its role is more to sterilize and disinfect, I basically only stick it once or twice, and then I start eating pure and original yusheng.
I lay on the surface of the sea, chewing on the fish and looking at the blue sky and white clouds. I suddenly thought to myself, if I was not lonely and helpless here, but on vacation, how comfortable it would be......
I think of my parents, my wife and daughter, who are far away from home...... I remembered my daughter's smile and a cute outfit...... The heart began to grow heavy. In these most boring times, what I miss the most is my relatives!
β¦β¦
The sun began to slowly spread wild, and there was a burst of fire overhead.
Suddenly, I thought of Han Bing.
I remembered what I said when I comforted her: What a pleasant thing it is to wander in the sea for two months, don't worry...... Who knows, as I said, I am really drifting now, and it is also very "comfortable", alas...... Am I just like that, eating net after net of fish, and then slowly drifting to that Caribbean destination? How long will that take, at least a year, right?
No, I can't delay it for so long, the relatives there are still waiting for me to rescue them! Oh, my God! What's wrong with me, still enjoying my food comfortably here, watching the blue sky and white clouds, and the clouds rolling up?!
I felt extremely guilty, and immediately cheered up, raised my head, and carefully examined the sea around me, and after looking at it for a long time, I still found nothing!
I hurriedly opened my backpack, found a packet of distress paint powder, sprinkled it on the sea, and watched as the crimson paint slowly melted and spread, turning into a few big words: SOS.
