The little ark departed from the cruise ship, and Mia did not run to check on Xingyu until she was sure that the sailors at sea could not swim. At this time, Xingyu was already unconscious, and no matter how Mia called, he couldn't wake up Xingyu. After Miya and Xia Xue operated the small ark and continued to sail to the southwest, they both sat next to Xingyu. At this time, Xiao Xi had also climbed onto the deck.

Mia and Xia Xue couldn't move Xingyu off the cabin, so they had to keep Xingyu all night. It wasn't until the next morning, when the sunlight through his eyelids stimulated Xingyu's eyeballs, that Xingyu reacted. Xingyu turned around and lay on the deck in a daze, avoiding the harsh sunlight. Mia and Xia Xue called for Xingyu again, and it was then that Xingyu woke up.

After waking up, Xingyu only remembers that after he jumped over the cruise ship, he shot the sailor holding the pistol. I don't remember what happened after that. Both Xingyu and Miya guessed that it was the sequelae of the infection, and they wanted to call Dr. He and ask Dr. He about it. But the satellite communicator didn't respond. The two had no choice but to go with the flow.

After this incident passed, the little ark continued to sail southwest. Xia Xue began to improve their cultivation methods, and the first thing that needed to be improved urgently was the lack of sunlight in the lifeboats. Xia Xue found a semi-circular white steel wok in the cabin, and then asked Xingyu to install the wok on top of the inside of the lifeboat. Xia Xue then found two mirrors and set them up outside the two hatches of the lifeboat, reflecting the sunlight on the wok. The semi-circular wok disperses sunlight to the bilge of the lifeboat, plus four small round windows in the walls of the boat. Xia Xue estimated that the sunlight in the lifeboat was enough for the plants inside to photosynthesize.

Since the reflected sunlight entered the lifeboat, Xia Xue and Xiaoxi, who originally liked to hide in the lifeboat to rest at noon, could no longer enter the lifeboat to rest. Xingyu noticed this problem after the lifeboat improvement was completed.

After the improvement of the lifeboat was completed, Xingyu directly ran to open the quadrangular hatch and took out the tripod from the cabin and put it on the hatch. Miya and Xia Xue looked at Xingyu curiously, and then saw Xingyu hoisting a white cylinder from the cabin. Mia immediately knew that it was an inflatable lifeboat, but wondered why Heungwoo had hoisted the inflatable lifeboat out.

Heung-woo rolled the cylinder of the inflatable lifeboat to the front of the round hatch. Xingyu pulls the rope outside the cylinder to activate the airlock. After the inflatable lifeboat was opened, Xia Xue saw the inflatable lifeboat that looked like a tent, and immediately knew that Xingyu wanted her and Xiaoxi to have a place to rest. Xia Xue was moved by Xingyu's intimacy in her heart, but she knew that this feeling could only stop there.

The method of reflecting sunlight into the lifeboat quickly paid off. After a week, the leaves of the pepper and tomato trees in the boat turned from blue-yellow to blue-green. After two weeks, they noticed that the peppers and cherry tomatoes had grown significantly. Miya and Xiaoxi both love to eat small tomatoes, and they are both happy to see the swollen and plump small tomatoes.

In addition to improving the sunlight problem of the lifeboat, Xia Xue also improved the way of fermenting the fertilizer liquid. Before, Xingyu and Miya simply used ice buckets to soak the leftover food, and filled back as much water as they scooped out of the soil every day. As a result, the nutrients in the water are uneven every day, and the water will become rancid and smell bad. Xia Xue took out an ice bucket and only put the leftover food into it, not filling it with water as before. The lid is then closed and the ice bucket is moved into the cool cabin to allow the food to ferment naturally.

A month later, Xia Xue opened the plug in the water hole at the bottom of the ice bucket. An odorless white liquid flows out of the water hole of the ice bucket, which is the fermented fertilizer liquid. These fertilizers cannot be irrigated directly and must be mixed with water before they can be used. Xia Xue put the fertilizer liquid into a water bottle and watered the soil with the fertilizer liquid at a ratio of 1:10 every day. Xia Xue told Xingyu and Miya that the fermented fertilizer liquid could also be used as a cleaning agent. But how could they be willing to use liquid fertilizer as a cleaning agent?

Three months later, the potatoes were also harvested. They have harvested more potatoes in greater quantities than before. Potatoes are the plants that Xingyu pays the most attention to, potatoes are nutritious, and the starch can also be eaten.

In these three months, they also found that the little ark could withstand the big waves. Within three months, they had also experienced strong winds and waves. But the little ark was not overturned by the waves. And the double weight of the bottom also makes the little ark more stable. Xingyu is finally confident that the little ark can drift on the sea for a long time and.

In the past three months, the satellite communicator has been connected once. Unfortunately, Dr. Ho only had time to correct the direction of their voyage when the line was broken. But that communication also let them know that they were close to the South China Sea. Originally, the South China Sea was surrounded by a group of islands and the edge of the Asian continent, but they didn't see any land as far as they could see. The archipelago around the South China Sea has all sunk into the sea.

At noon one day, Xia Xue, who was coaxing Xiaoxi to take a nap in the inflatable lifeboat, saw a long object floating on the sea in the distance that looked like a boat but not like a boat. Xia Xue immediately called Xingyu and Miya to come up to the deck. Heung-woo steered and steered towards the long object, trying to see what it was.

Soon after, Xingyu and Mia were surprised to see that it was a traditional ship of the Sea Drifting Clan. Before the end of the day, they encountered the traditional ship of the Drifters of the Sea, which was almost identical to the one in front of them. Then, the four of them began to get nervous. Because they saw people on board, a pair of young men and women of Southeast Asian skin were standing outside the ship's shed looking at them. There was also a little boy and a little girl in the boatshed. Xingyu: They guessed that the people of the ship were a small family.

Xingyu continued to steer the little ark and sail over. Soon after, Xingyu lowered the sails and let the little ark slide to a short distance from the side of the traditional boat. The men and women on the traditional boat rowed over with their wooden oars and shouted a strange language at them. Neither Miya nor Xia Xue understood this kind of voice, but they were surprised to hear Xingyu respond to each other with this kind of voice. Miya and Xia Xue opened their eyes wide and looked at Xingyu in astonishment. But soon Miya and Xia Xue discovered that Xingyu was not fluent in speaking, and it seemed to be difficult to express intermittently.

But apparently the other party could understand, and the other party continued to talk to Xingyu. Soon after, Xingyu told Miya and Xia Xue that the other party was really a member of the Sea Drifting Clan. Originally, they lived with their tribesmen in the South China Sea, but during the tsunami of the last days, they were swept away by huge waves.

Mia exclaimed, "It's amazing! You speak their language. Xingyu replied proudly: "You have forgotten that my father was once employed by a small country in Southeast Asia to investigate the history and life of the sea drifters!" I also lived in that small country for a few years and learned the local language. However, although the Sea Drifters originated from the country, they have been away from the country for generations, so their pronunciation is already different from the local language. Luckily, we were able to communicate. ”

After that, Xingyu invited the family to board the boat. But they refused. In fact, Xingyu was also worried in his heart, and he took the liberty of living with strangers. So Xingyu didn't force the other party, but he still proposed that the two ships be companions to live together at sea. The other party agreed.

At night, I saw two boats, one large and one small, holding each other with ropes, quietly floating on the sea.
