The Crown Princess is busy fishing
Chapter 36 Escape
After finishing their meal, the two prepared to begin repairing the fishing boat.
However, looking at the tree trunk in front of him, Lin Yuge was at a loss.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Yunqing asked with concern, noticing Lin Yuge's furrowed brows.
Lin Yuge sighed softly and raised the small knife in her hand.
He said helplessly, "Young Master Yun, it's really difficult to process this tree trunk into a suitable material for repairing fishing boats with just this small knife."
Xiao Yunqing narrowed his eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Here's what you'll do: give me the knife, and draw out how you want to cut it using charcoal."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yuge immediately found a piece of charcoal and carefully examined the tree trunk.
Then, relying on his experience, he carefully drew the approximate cutting lines on the tree trunk.
She explained to Xiao Yunqing as she drew.
“Young Master Yun, we need to cut a flat plank here to reinforce the bottom of the boat. We can also cut some long strips here to support the hull.”
Xiao Yunqing looked at the lines, took the knife, took a deep breath, and slowly circulated his inner strength.
His internal energy circulated within his body and gathered in the small knife in his hand.
He carefully began cutting the tree trunk along the lines drawn with charcoal.
With the enhancement of his internal energy, the knife seemed to become even sharper, making a slight "sizzling" sound when it cut into the tree trunk.
Lin Yuge watched nervously from the side, occasionally reminding Xiao Yunqing to pay attention to certain details.
Over time, the trunk was cut more and more precisely.
Fine beads of sweat appeared on Xiao Yunqing's forehead, but he showed no sign of stopping.
Finally, all the necessary parts were cut to size.
As the final blow fell, Xiao Yunqing let out a long sigh, a weary smile appearing on her face.
Lin Yuge excitedly stepped forward and carefully examined the cut tree trunk.
With an incredulous expression, he exclaimed, "Young Master Yun, your internal strength is truly amazing! The cut is so smooth!"
Xiao Yunqing smiled slightly as he looked at her excited expression.
"Now that we have these suitable parts, we can start repairing the fishing boat."
Lin Yuge nodded vigorously, her eyes sparkling with tiny glints of light.
They immediately began repairing the fishing boat.
Xiao Yunqing used her internal strength to firmly fix the cut parts onto the fishing boat, while Lin Yuge skillfully picked up the tools and quickly assembled and reinforced them.
They worked together seamlessly, as if they had collaborated countless times before.
As time went by, the fishing boats gradually recovered thanks to their efforts.
Looking at the brand-new fishing boat, Lin Yuge was filled with emotion: "I never thought we could actually do it."
A look of satisfaction appeared in Xiao Yunqing's eyes.
"Miss Lin, this is the result of our joint efforts."
Lin Yuge nodded and began to make plans.
"If the wind direction is right tomorrow, we can set off."
After a moment of contemplation, Xiao Yunqing said, "Well, before that, we need to prepare enough food and fresh water to ensure we have sufficient supplies during our voyage at sea."
So they got busy again.
As night fell, the two finally finished collecting food and fresh water.
Looking at the supplies piled up in one corner of the fishing boat, I felt a little more at ease.
They returned to their makeshift shelter and gradually fell asleep from exhaustion.
As the first rays of sunlight touched the sea, the two men got up and checked the fishing boat's condition once again.
With everything ready, they boarded the fishing boat and hoisted the sails.
The fishing boat slowly sailed away from the small island where they had temporarily anchored, heading towards the unknown future.
Along the way, Lin Yuge used simple tools to calculate latitude and longitude to determine the direction of the mainland.
She frowned, recalling where she had started and the scene when the storm struck.
I started from Longtang Village and headed east. At that time, the storm was probably blowing from the northeast.
She had studied it carefully and found that the geographical environment of this world was basically the same as that of her previous life.
Lin Yuge carefully observed the sun's altitude and position, making calculations based on her memory and experience.
Xiao Yunqing watched nervously from the side, waiting for her judgment.
At this moment, a question arose in his mind: how could Miss Lin know so much about navigation?
I consider myself well-read, but I have never seen these amazing methods of divination in any of them.
However, seeing Lin Yuge's focused expression, he suppressed his doubts. At this moment, the most important thing was to find the way back.
The tools in Lin Yu's hand swayed slightly, her gaze focused and resolute.
Sunlight shone on her face, reflecting her thoughtful expression.
After a moment, she raised her head slightly, looked at Xiao Yunqing, and said, "Young Master Yun, based on the position of the sun and the direction of the storm, we are currently in the eastern part of the South China Sea."
"If we want to find the mainland, we should now sail northeast."
Xiao Yunqing's eyes lit up slightly, and she immediately replied, "Alright, as you say."
He gripped the rudder tightly, adjusted the fishing boat's direction, and slowly moved southwest.
The sea surface shimmered, and fishing boats bobbed gently in the waves.
Lin Yuge continued to observe the surrounding environment, not letting go of any potentially useful clues.
She watched the seabirds fly in the direction they were heading and saw a flock of them flying northeast.
“Young Master Yun, look at those seabirds. They are likely flying towards land to forage for food. We should be heading in the right direction.”
Xiao Yunqing followed her gaze and listened attentively to what she was saying.
As time went by, the sun gradually began to set in the west.
Lin Yuge performed another calculation to ensure they had not deviated from their course.
“Young Master Yun, our current course is basically correct, but the situation at sea is unpredictable, so we still cannot let our guard down.”
Xiao Yunqing nodded slightly, "Don't worry, I will stay vigilant."
Night falls, and the stars twinkle in the sky.
Lin Yuge used the position of the stars to confirm their location again.
She pointed to a group of constellations in the sky and said to Xiao Yunqing, "Young Master Yun, look at those constellations. In this season, their positions can help us determine our direction."
"As long as we continue to move northeast, we have hope of finding the mainland."
As Xiao Yunqing gazed at the starry sky, her heart was filled with hope.
The two waited expectantly for dawn during the long, dark night.
As another ray of sunlight shone on the sea, they saw a dark shadow appear in the distance.
Lin Yuge shouted excitedly, "Young Master Yun, is that land?"
Xiao Yunqing's gaze was instantly drawn to that dark figure.
He stared intently at the dark shape, his hand unconsciously tightening its grip on the rudder.
As the fishing boat drew closer, the dark shape became clearer and clearer, revealing itself to be the outline of land.
Lin Yuge's eyes welled up with tears of excitement; this arduous journey had finally seen a glimmer of hope.
As they approached the shore, they saw golden sand and lush vegetation.
Xiao Yunqing steadily moored the fishing boat at the shore.
The two couldn't wait to jump off the boat and step onto solid ground, feeling that long-lost sense of security.
"Young Master Yun, what should we do next?" Lin Yuge asked, regaining his composure.
