Time Travel: A Fisherwoman Goes to the Sea to Raise a Baby
Chapter 26 Dances with Sharks
The things ordered from the blacksmith shop were not ready yet, and Xu Yiyi also wanted to take advantage of this time to go out to sea.
Since Xu Pinghai and his crew last went out to sea, they encountered a typhoon again, and the situation at sea has been unstable.
After being delayed for a few days, I happened to meet Xu Yiyi going out to sea.
Xu Anyang had also recovered by now, and looked at Xu Yiyi paddling the boat with a complicated look in his eyes.
"Sister Yiyi, you are really brave. You fell into the sea last time you went out to sea, but you dared to go out to sea again this time, and alone."
The last time Xu Anyang went out to sea, he panicked after falling into the sea. He was knocked unconscious by the waves and then woke up, not knowing what to do.
If Xu Yiyi hadn't come to save him, he might not be standing here today.
“It’s all about living.”
Xu Yiyi wanted to get out before Xu Pinghai and Li Shunan arrived. If they came, they would definitely scold her.
"Stop! What are you doing?"
Xu Pinghai ran over quickly and was so confused when he saw Xu Yiyi on the boat.
This guy really doesn't remember his punishment. He hasn't learned enough from the last lesson and is still thinking about going out to sea.
"I'm going out to sea!"
Xu Yiyi was very confident. She had figured it out. The last time the wind and waves were so strong was definitely because a typhoon was coming. Now the sky was clear and they were near the sea, so there would definitely be no problem.
"Don't make trouble. With your small body, even rowing a boat will be a problem, let alone going out to sea."
He has thin arms and legs and doesn't look very strong.
Xu Yiyi had made up her mind. Now that she had a boat, she didn't need to beg anyone for help.
Li Shunan sighed, "If you really have so much free time, go to the river and help your uncle get the village kids to swim. You're a pretty good swimmer anyway."
Xu Yiyi smiled and said that if she fell again she would climb up, and then she went about her own business.
Finally, in full view of everyone, he rowed the boat away.
"Ada, please help me watch her. If she falls into the sea, please help me pull her out."
Xu Pinghai grabbed the man who was about to go out to sea and said, "Don't worry, we are all from the same village. If we encounter any problems, there will be someone to help us."
Ah Da understood the concern of the two people and thought that his parents were also like this when he went out to sea for the first time.
After adjusting the sails, he stared at Xu Yiyi's stern and followed the wind.
People from the village who go out to sea gather in groups. There are only three or five boats near Xu Yiyi, and they are quite far apart from each other.
Although Xu Yiyi grew up by the river, he has no fishing skills at all.
When I went out, I brought a relatively small fishing net and learned how to cast a net from the people around me.
But several times in a row, the net was empty, there was nothing at all.
"Yiyi, you can't do this!"
Since Ah Da was entrusted with a task, he naturally had to be loyal to the person who entrusted him with the task, and he followed Xu Yiyi's boat from a distance.
In addition to focusing on the matter at hand, he also had to glance at Xu Yiyi from time to time.
Seeing that she is so clueless, it seems like every effort is in vain.
"Observe the wind direction, water currents, and signs of fish activity. Fish swim to follow their food, so observing their movements makes it much easier..."
Xu Yiyi had already learned how to use the fishing net. After hearing what the uncle said, she began to observe carefully.
When I cast the net again, I finally got some harvest.
There were only a few small fish, and looking at the uncle next to them, I felt really bad.
After working hard for a whole morning, I caught a few half-dead fish.
Sitting on the boat, chewing fried oysters, his eyes looked into the distance, not knowing what he was thinking about.
"How are you? Are you tired? Have some orange peel soup that your aunt made for me."
Ada rowed the boat towards Xu Yiyi's boat and passed the kettle over.
Xu Yiyi smiled bitterly and asked, "How can I not be tired?"
I've been repeating the same movements all morning, and my hands and waist are so sore.
"Going out to sea isn't as easy as you think. Besides the unpredictable risks at sea, there's also the bad luck of catching only a few small fish after spending half a day trying. It's good to stay home and listen to your uncle and the others."
Ah Da laughed. He was an old hand, but he only caught two buckets of sea fish, which he couldn't sell for much.
"I've already learned it. I'll just have to become proficient in it when I get back."
Xu Yiyi put away the fishing net. The wind and waves were too strong in the afternoon and it was not suitable for fishing, so they had to return.
Tie yourself to the boat with a rope so that you won't be washed away if you get hit by the waves.
Ah Da smiled but said nothing. When the wind direction changed, several fishing boats around quickly changed the direction of their sails.
A Da walked in front and let Xu Yiyi follow.
As the wind and waves grew stronger, the boat began to sway from side to side. Xu Yi watched helplessly as the little fish she had caught with great difficulty fell back into the sea.
The waves subsided, and Uncle A's fishing net finally reaped a good harvest.
The sea water seemed to have confused the fish, and no fish was caught empty-handed in any net.
The fishing boats on several surrounding ships were also experienced veterans. As soon as the wind and waves died down, they immediately started casting their nets.
Xu Yiyi was dizzy from the shaking. When she came to her senses, she saw that Uncle A's boat was full of sea fish. She quickly cast the fishing net, so she did not return empty-handed this time.
On the way back, the afterglow of the setting sun dyed the sky orange-red, and the small boat swayed gracefully on the sea. After a bitter smile all day, Ah Da finally showed a satisfied smile.
Xu Yiyi also had a good harvest. The three buckets of sea fish were not in vain.
Just when they thought everything would go smoothly today, the people on the fishing boat behind them attracted sharks.
The smell of blood had quietly spread in the air without anyone noticing. It was an invisible signal, spreading in all directions, and a shark slowly rose from the deep seabed.
It moved nimbly in the water around the boat, cruising faster and faster.
"Everyone speed up and don't stop."
Ah Da's face turned pale and he looked around the boat warily.
Among the six boats around, Xu Yiyi was the only one there, and Ada couldn't help but look at her worriedly.
At this moment, the huge shark suddenly jumped out of the sea and attacked the small boat following Xu Yiyi. The people on the boat dodged in panic, and the boat then collided with the small boat where Xu Yiyi was.
With a stumble, Xu Yiyi fell into the water.
Ah Da exclaimed and quickly threw the rope down. The shark saw people coming down and swam over after Xu Yiyi.
She somersaulted into the water, intending to avoid the shark, but she never expected the shark to follow her closely.
Xu Yiyi's breath-holding time is not long among the children in the village. If he can't get rid of the shark, he will be suffocated to death sooner or later.
A school of fish suddenly rushed over from underwater, and Xu Yiyi was pushed to the bottom of the sea, with sharks following closely behind.
Xu Yiyi didn't notice that the moment she entered the water, a strange light surrounded her body.
She hid under the reefs and corals on the seabed and played a game of hide-and-seek with the sharks. A squid spit out ink, and the surrounding sea water became turbid.
Xu Yiyi took out a dagger from his waist and stared at the shark's lower abdomen, which was a relatively soft and vital area.
The shark was ferocious but no match for Xu Yiyi's agility. After a few rounds, it seemed to be angered.
Then Xu Yiyi deliberately slowed down his swimming speed to lure the shark to attack.
Xu Yiyi's heart began to beat fast, and he clenched the dagger in his hand nervously.
When she went out today, Wu Yuan suddenly made a big fuss. When she was holding him, she accidentally knocked down Xu's father's dagger. She didn't know why she brought the dagger with her.
When the shark opened its bloody mouth and was about to swallow her.
Xu Yiyi suddenly turned around and stabbed the shark's vitals with the dagger while the shark was not reacting. Blood quickly spread in the sea water.
Unfortunately, the shark struggled so hard that Xu Yiyi failed to catch it and was knocked onto the reef by the shark.
Xu Yiyi felt pain in his waist and opened his mouth unconsciously to drink some water. Seeing the shark attacking again, Xu Yiyi quickly hid in a reef cave.
She gasped for air subconsciously while feeling nervous, and then she was surprised to find that she could breathe freely underwater! !
Every breath is as easy and natural as on land, and bubbles are gently exhaled from the mouth and slowly rise.
She could actually breathe underwater.
Thinking about the fish eye I accidentally swallowed yesterday, I thought, "Could it really be the effect of the fish eye?"
Xu Yiyi had some doubts in her heart, but before she could think about it, the shark attacked again.
But her dagger fell into the rocks outside when she was hit. She looked into the hole and continued to throw stones at the shark.
Seeing it leave in pain, Xu Yiyi seized the opportunity to swim outside and retrieve the dagger.
A dark shadow suddenly appeared behind her, and she stabbed out with the dagger in her backhand.
The sharp dagger cut through the shark's abdomen, and blood kept gushing out. Xu Yiyi actually killed the shark.
But without giving her a rest, she dragged the shark upstream.
Donating blood would attract more sharks that she couldn't control, so she had to leave immediately.
……
"Ada, you'd better not wait any longer. That girl is unlucky. She hasn't come up yet. She must have been eaten by the shark."
A Da was waiting...waiting for Xu Yiyi. Even if he couldn't bring the person back, at least he had to take the body back.
But it has been so long and the body has not floated up. Maybe it was really eaten by sharks.
Everyone was in a depressed mood, especially the people on the boat that hit Xu Yiyi's boat.
"Ada, what are you doing here?"
When Li Shunan and his group returned, they saw Ada and his group staying on the sea not far away, shouting at the top of their lungs.
Xu Anyang noticed Xu Yiyi’s small boat with his sharp eyes.
"Uncle Li! Sister Yiyi's boat!"
Li Shunan looked over and saw that Xu Yiyi's boat was still there, but no one was on it.
"Something happened to Yi Yi. She fell into the sea and was eaten by a shark."
Ah Da cried out in a sobbing voice, and Xu Pinghai was also attracted by the noise.
Looking at Xu Yiyi's small boat not far away, I couldn't believe it for a long time.
"I'm alive!"
Xu Yiyi suddenly emerged from the water, splashing water everywhere and with a wanton and ostentatious smile on his face.
After two trips out to sea, he got a little darker than before, but he looked full of vitality.
"all!"
Ah Da was shocked. He knew how long Xu Yi had been in the water. Normally he would have drowned long ago, not to mention there were sharks chasing him. It was incredible that he was still alive.
"Yiyi, how come you're still alive?"
"I'm a good swimmer! Uncle, can't you pull me up first? I'm so tired from killing the sharks that I can't climb up."
Xu Yiyi's words were shocking, and the people around her couldn't believe what she said.
"You said you killed the shark?"
Xu Yiyi lifted the shark carcass out of the water. Ah Da's mouth was so big that it could swallow a whole egg.
He subconsciously pulled Xu Yiyi up.
Looking at Xu Yiyi lying on the boat gasping for breath, and then looking at the huge shark lying next to her.
They had to believe that Xu Yiyi had actually killed the shark and came up from the bottom of the sea alive.
After all this time, the sky had become a little gloomy.
Xu Yiyi was so tired that she didn't want to move. Xu Anyang and Li Shunan got off the big boat and rowed Xu Yiyi's small boat back.
"Sister Yiyi, when did you become so powerful? Killing the shark is one thing, but the most amazing thing is that you actually stayed in the water for 25 minutes?"
The look in Xu Anyang's eyes when he looked at Xu Yiyi was exactly the admiration that a fan would have when looking at his idol.
Two quarters of an hour? Two quarters of an hour is almost half an hour. Xu Yiyi had never thought that she could stay down there for that long.
"I think so! I'm not sure. I was so focused on the shark that I didn't notice the time."
What Ah Da said was witnessed by people on several small boats nearby.
"Sister Yiyi, who taught you to swim? Can you ask him to teach me too?"
Xu Anyang thought that if he could be so powerful, he would never have to worry about encountering danger when going out to sea.
"What are you imagining? Your great-grandfather organized all the children in the village to learn duck swimming. You and Yi Yi learned together? I think it must be a difference in talent."
Li Shunan couldn't help laughing when he heard Xu Anyang's childish words.
This is probably the best interpretation of a master leading the way to personal cultivation.
When Xu Anyang heard this, it seemed to be the case.
"Yi Yi, let's go to the dock and sell our catch before we go back!"
The boat was heading towards the town's pier.
Even though shark skin is scratched, it can still be sold for a price.
"Not yet. I'm going to drag the shark back to the village so that my brother and sister-in-law can see it."
Li Shunan changed direction and returned to the village, followed by the others.
It was already dark when we entered the river.
Many people in the village came out to guard. In the evening, Wu Yuan suddenly started crying and making a fuss, which made Er Er panic.
Today, as it was getting dark and my eldest sister had not returned yet, several of my younger brothers came out to look after her.
"Don't worry, your eldest sister went out with some uncles in the village, she will be fine."
Aunt Li touched Er'er's head.
Suddenly, a fishing boat appeared on the river, and Xu Yiyi was clearly visible.
"Sister...Sister, we are here..."
Sanchuan and Sihai kept jumping around.
When people got off the boat, four children surrounded Xu Yiyi and cried.
"Ouch!"
"That's a shark!"
The villagers were amazed to see a shark nearly two meters long lying in the small boat.
"Go and see the shark! Big sister killed it. Isn't it impressive?"
Xu Yiyi quickly diverted the children's attention and looked at the villagers surrounding the boat, making surprised sounds.
"My eldest sister killed him. My eldest sister is very powerful."
Sihai stood on the boat, his hands on his hips and a smug smile on his face.
