Chapter 107 This is a shark
When Shen Lang heard this, he also felt that what Ah Yuan said was a truth, not to mention that Ah Yuan couldn't lie to him, there was no other way, only to wait patiently. After Ah Cheng took a few cycad pills given to him, his arm was no longer red, swollen and painful, and the effect was indeed remarkable.
Unconsciously, more than 20 days passed, and with the help of Ah Yuan and Ah Qian, Ah Cheng's boat was also repaired.
During this period, Ah Yuan also sold a medicine, which was forced by the bald two of them a few days ago, and the effect was worse, of course, not much, only a dozen in total.
Ah Yuan means that it is not sold, it is not worth a few dollars, and the effect of the medicine is not particularly good, so I want to compare it with the made Chinese medicine in the future to see how much difference there is between the two medicinal effects. But the guests who came had to buy it, and finally threw away a thousand dollars.
After Ah Yuan and Ah Qian's overtime work, the cycad Chinese medicine that Shen Lang wanted was finally made, although Ah Cheng's injury had not fully recovered, but Shen Lang couldn't wait to go back.
On this day, the weather was sunny and the wind was beautiful, and Shen Lang and Ah Cheng decided to set off. Ah Yuan and Ah Qian gave two of the best food in their shacks, the best sea cucumbers in the South China Sea, and helped Ah Cheng check whether the sea supplies were complete.
The cycad Chinese medicine gave Shen Lang a hundred, and the medicine money naturally did not charge Shen Lang a penny, but Shen Lang felt that this was inappropriate, and when he left, he still gave Ah Yuan and the others 5,000 yuan.
Shen Lang, Ah Cheng and the two said goodbye and set foot on the way home.
Did the two have a smooth journey?
It is said that Shen Lang and Ah Cheng set off from Mahuan Island and returned the same way, crossing Xindao Island, crossing Xiyue Island, and Yuemengmu Reef, for more than ten days, this section of the journey was calm and smooth, and the haze that Shen Lang had shrouded his face in the past few months was also swept away.
In the past, the sun must have a sense of ceremony, there is a transition, as a foreshadowing, first a little fog, spread a layer of silver carpet, and then like a shy girl, first poke out her head to peek at the outside world, to see if there are any living people, and then step on the silver carpet to come.
On this day, it was very different from the previous days, the sun was earlier than usual, and it sprinkled its golden light on the vast and boundless sea in the morning.
After breakfast, Ah Cheng continued to control his small boat, Shen Lang stood on the bow of the boat with great interest, facing the blue sky, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said to Ah Cheng:
"Master Cheng, like this, we will be home soon, you can relax for a while, and I will pay you the errand. Don't you regret this trip?"
"What do you regret, it's not you looking for me, there are others looking for me, my days are always in the wind and rain, I will encounter two or three times a year, but it is so dangerous like this time, it is really the first time. ”
Ah Cheng sat at the stern of the boat and held the oar in one hand and looked into the distance and said.
"If you don't die in a great calamity, you will have a blessing. I believe that Master Ah Cheng will make a fortune and enjoy good fortune in the future. Unlike us, we live a life of licking blood on the tip of a knife, and there may be no tomorrow if there is today. ”
Shen Lang seemed to comfort Ah Cheng, and at the same time felt a little sad about his life.
"Don't say these frustrating words, as ordinary people, it is not us who choose life, it is life that chooses us, it is not that we want to live like this, it is life that wants us to live like this.
The sun came out early today, the weather was really hot, and I didn't exercise much, so I was covered in sweat. Summer in the South China Sea came really early this year. Ah Cheng is also lamenting life.
"Not far ahead is the Les Sands, once we cross the Les Sands, we will soon be able to go home after the Twin Reefs. ”
Ah Cheng also showed a happy smile on his face. The two couldn't help but look at each other and smile. After walking for a while, Shen Lang suddenly asked:
"How do you feel like our boat is always unstable?"
"There's no wind, there's no tide, what's going on, we have to be careful anyway. ”
Ah Cheng is no longer rocking the oars with one hand, but has changed to two-handed rocking oars, his eyes vigilantly watching the sea.
"There was a situation ahead, and the unsteadiness of the boat was caused by the marine animals in front.
They generally don't hurt people, but they have an impact on our boats. These sea creatures swam right next to us, and our boat would lose its bearing, and the waves they brought up were much bigger than you could imagine.
The biggest problem now is that our boat has reached a narrow surface of water, and if we make a detour, it will take at least three more days, and we may not be able to avoid it.
The only thing we can do now is for us to pull aside a little bit, let them have fun, and we'll go back when we're far away. You have to be careful not to stand up and hold on to the cabin. ”
Ah Cheng said as he sailed the boat to the left with smaller waves.
"Shark...... Whale!" Ah Cheng made a frightened sound from his mouth.
The boat accelerated and sailed towards the island next to it, fifty meters away from the island, when suddenly a huge black shadow in the water on the right rushed over, the boat was distorted by a huge impact, the bow of the boat flicked to the right, and the stern drifted to the left.
Immediately afterwards, a loud "clang" was heard at the bottom of the boat, and the stern changed direction again, and it was thrown to the right again, and there was a loud "clang" on the bow of the boat.
After two loud bangs, the boat turned and retreated twenty meters, then stopped. These two loud noises shattered Ah Cheng's heart, and he sighed:
"Oh my God! The bow of the ship in front was deformed, and what was even more annoying was that our ship could no longer accelerate, but could only slow down. The engine propeller link in the stern of the ship had been broken, and the engine could only be cranked by hand in the future. ”
After speaking, Ah Cheng smiled bitterly.
"We don't perform, let's watch them perform. Ah Cheng said helplessly.
"Why are all whales? Is it a whale holding a martial arts conference today?"
A group of whales swam over, Shen Lang had never seen so many whales, Shen Lang joked.
"No, these are whales in front, called killer whales, and the ones chasing behind are not whales, but sharks, called tiger sharks.
You people in the interior generally don't know who is a shark, who is a whale and who is a dolphin. The tail fin is vertical for sharks, and horizontal for whales or dolphins.
After excluding sharks, the big ones are whales and the small ones are dolphins. Whales have to come to the surface every once in a while to breathe.
When it comes to the surface, it shoots out a jet of water, like a fountain in a garden. The water column will be different for different whales.
The water column spewed out by baleen whales is vertical, tall and thin, and the water column spewed out by toothed whales is sloping, thick and short, and this swimmer is the killer whale among the whales in front, and the shark is the tiger shark in the back.
Usually they don't cross paths, they don't fight, but today, for some reason, sharks and whales fought.
It must have been one of the whales in front of you who was injured and blood was coming out, and the shark smelled the blood and would catch up.
The killer whales are very united, and when they encounter foreign enemies, they will resist collectively, and if one of them dies, the others will choose to be buried together.
Just now it was a tiger shark chasing a group of whales, no, it should be chasing an injured whale. I don't know which one is injured. ”
After a pause for two seconds, Ah Cheng pointed to the back and said:
"Look, the last one, his tail fin is high and vertical up, and this one is the shark.
You carefully distinguish it from the others, the front ones are more obvious, the tail is flattened, and those are whales. ”
At this time, the shark in the back came back and rushed to the front, suddenly made a U-turn, and rushed towards several whales swimming behind, completely ignoring Shen Lang's existence.
The group of whales split off to the sides and glided in two rows, and the two intersecting channels formed huge waves, and the sea they swam across seemed to have been dug out of a long channel.
Shen Lang's boat kept rocking with the waves, like a baby's cradle. In the past, Shen Lang really didn't know the difference between sharks and whales, but today he had the opportunity to learn so much about the ocean, which was worth the trip, but the price was a bit big.
