The wind blew fiercely, and the rain continued to fall.
"Father, are we going to die here?"
A trembling voice came from the darkness amidst the heavy rain. Lightning flashed, and under the waves, there was a small fishing boat with two people on it.
A naked and small man held onto the side of the boat tightly and looked at the sky in fear. The rain flowed down his cheeks. The other person was silent. He held the oar in his hand and swept and pushed against the incoming waves. The boat directly used this force to retreat a distance and was not overturned by the waves.
At this time, the person rowing the boat wiped his face and said, "Little Tao, don't be afraid. The waves will push us to the shore."
"Yes, pushed to the shore. Father, if I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have taken the risk to come here." After saying this, the person called Little Tao took a deep breath.
Just as he held his breath, another wave fell. The older person used the same method to push the boat away. He wiped his face with his hand and said to his son, "Little Tao, I misunderstood.
"Little Tao, I was wrong. If I didn't want to rely on your swimming ability to get more Jia Xiang, why would I bring you to a place so far away from the island? Father has harmed you. No matter how good I am at swimming, it's useless. "
Another wave hit, and the boat repeated the previous step.
There seemed to be no danger, but the father knew that he had no strength left. He was pushed away by the wind and waves. He didn't know where he had run to. He had left the range of the island and could only rely on the real shore. There was no hope at all.
"Father, I don't blame father. If I didn't come out to get armor, how could I find a wife for brother? I just miss mother. If mother knows that something happened to me and father, she will be very sad … Father, don't move, we can't run away. Save some strength, I will take you back later. The further we can swim, the better. What if we can survive? "
While speaking, Little Tao encountered another wave. Under the light of the lightning, he saw that his father's movements had become stiff. He gritted his teeth and said with determination.
As a father, how could he be willing to drag his son down? He squeezed out a smile and said, "Little Tao, when I can't hold on anymore, you can swim by yourself. I hope you can survive. Don't worry about me. It's a pity that with your ability, you can fish up a fragrant shell from three hundred feet into the water. You shouldn't have encountered such a storm."
"No, if we're leaving, we'll leave together. We'll survive, and we'll be able to get even more armor incense." Xiao Tao couldn't run by himself. He didn't care about his father. In fact, even if he ran by himself, he might not be able to escape. It was peaceful underwater, but he had to come up to take a breath. After a few breaths, he would be exhausted.
"Splash!" A wave came crashing down from the undulating surface of the sea. The small boat could no longer retreat. The entire boat was immediately overturned. The father had no strength left. He fell into the water and disappeared without a trace.
The moment the boat capsized, Little Tao took a deep breath and plunged his head into the water. His body twisted a few times like a fish and he grabbed his father. His legs kicked at the same time and his two heads popped out of the water.
"Father, let's go home. In a while, I'll exert strength in my hand and you'll hold your breath." Little Tao grabbed his father's arm and shouted. He immediately exerted strength in his hand. His father also held his breath. Little Tao took his father and plunged back into the water. The wave swept past the previous position.
When the wave came, the two heads popped out again. They struggled to swim in the direction of the wave. That should be the shore.
Every time a wave came, the two people would dive into the water. It wasn't that they wouldn't be affected by the current, but they were afraid of being caught by the floating things on the water. Even if it was a rotten fish, the bones could cut a big hole in their body.
They didn't know how long they had been swimming. When the father saw many bright spots in front of his eyes, his whole body was cold. He knew that he couldn't hold on any longer. He weakly said to his son, "Let go of me. Swim back. Go back alive."
"I don't want to. I'll take you back with me." Little Tao stubbornly pulled his father and continued to swim. To be able to persist for such a long time in such weather, even the bare-handed fishermen in the Yellow River would feel ashamed. However, in the face of the power of heaven and earth, no matter how great one's ability was, it was useless.
As he swam, Little Tao didn't think about anything else. He only moved mechanically. Even the frequency of his breathing was completely based on instinct.
Just when he was about to give up, he suddenly saw a light flash in front of him. He thought it was an illusion, but the light didn't disappear. It was always there.
Little Tao's eyes lit up. He thought that he had met someone. That meant that they were about to reach the shore. His body seemed to have regained its strength. He exerted all his strength to swim towards the light.
Lightning flashed from time to time. In a trance, Little Tao found that the place seemed to be where a reef was. He didn't care so much. A reef was good. He could rest on it and wait for his father to recover before thinking of a solution.
It looked close, but it wasn't that simple to swim over. Little Tao stared. He only thought of swimming to that place. He didn't even care if the waves carried something that could hurt people.
"Old Wang, what are you looking at in the middle of the night? There's no ship coming. It's been ten days. There should have been a ship coming to deliver something to us, but it met with a huge storm. It seems that we have to wait until tomorrow or the day after. "
In a lighthouse furthest from Qinzhou Bay, a person was holding a clairvoyance and looking at the sea. Another person was sitting beside a stove and roasting fish. The person roasting the fish had just finished roasting a fish. He passed it to the person holding the clairvoyance and said.
"How can we not take a good look? What if there's a ship coming? I asked you to look at the light just now, but you actually fell asleep. If a good official finds out, you can forget about your job in the future. When it's your turn, you can go back and say it yourself. If you wait for me to say it, then it's a different matter. "
Old Wang turned his head and took the fish. He gave the person roasting the fish a warning.
"Uncle Wang, I won't dare to do it again. Can you not say it? It's just the two of us here. No one else knows. " The person roasting the fish was really scared. He was in charge of cooking and looking at the light. In the end, he fell asleep at night when the light was most needed.
"You don't want to say it? That won't do. You can say it yourself. Be careful in the future. You won't be punished. If you don't say it this time, you can still fall asleep next time. Eh? Quick, help me see if there's anyone in the water. "
Lao Wang didn't discuss anything at all. Just as he was speaking, he suddenly saw two people swimming towards them under the light of the lightning.
"How can there be anyone? He should have drowned long ago. " The person roasting the fish impatiently came over. If he didn't need help, he wouldn't have cared. He took the clairvoyance and looked at the water. It was pitch black and there was nothing. Just as he was about to continue roasting the fish, another flash of lightning appeared.
"Uncle Wang, quick, go and save him. That kid is still swimming and can't hold on any longer. He's sinking more than floating and he's bringing someone with him."
After the person roasting the fish shouted, he threw the clairvoyance aside and started to put on a life vest.
