During the day, the sea is surrounded by water, and the boat under your feet is the center of the world, with no direction at all. And there is endless wealth under the waves. As long as someone is willing to work hard, they will be rewarded with a lot of fish and shrimp.

After Uncle Pei saw that they were almost done with the ceremony, he shouted from the boat, "Are you ready?"

Father Ye also replied loudly, "It's almost done. Just check the machine and we're ready to go."

This is a new ship, and there are usually no problems. They have tried it before, and now they only need to take a brief look at it, then untie the cable and start the machine.

Ye Yaodong walked to the cockpit and held the steering wheel, skillfully turning the ship around. When the Harvest started to move, he also followed behind and started to move, and the bumpy feeling was immediately obvious.

Because he was following the Harvest, Father Ye was not that worried. He was familiar with the waters near where he had just sailed, so he did not squeeze into the cab.

After he reached the town, it wouldn't be too late for him to go up and take a look.

Ye Yaodong touched the steering wheel and looked at the calm sea, feeling a little excited.

Mud, finally got hold of such a big ship and finally set it out to sea.

At this moment, the originally gray sky suddenly cleared away the clouds and saw red light. The entire sky lit up instantly, and even the cockpit became brighter, and the visibility became further.

A bright red sun poked its head out little by little from the thick clouds in the distance, like a shy girl slowly lifting her veil.

The sun shines through the gaps in the clouds and onto the sparkling sea, forming golden strips of light, like countless shining golden snakes dancing on the sea.

Ye Yaodong was grinning. It was good that the sun was out. The wind was gentle and the sky was clear. Good days come with good weather, which was a good sign.

After the third day of the Lunar New Year, the sky has been foggy and gloomy. Only on the first and second day of the Lunar New Year did I see the sun. The rest of the week was filled with dark skies, thick clouds, and cold wind.

The boatmen on the deck were all smiling and talking to each other, probably talking about the sun.

He had also read the weather forecast last night, which said it would become cloudy and sunny, which finally seemed a bit more reliable.

Some small wooden boats along the coast are also swaying slowly towards their destination, and some diligent people have already been casting nets on the sea early in the morning.

Seeing their two boats heading forward one after the other, they couldn't help but raise their heads to watch. Until they sailed away from the surroundings, only a black spot was left in front of them, and the small wooden boats had not moved much distance.

There were no trawlers seen along the way. Those who should have gone out to sea had gone far away during the night.

The Harvest cruised forward without stopping, and did not stop until it reached the town's pier.

Ye Yaodong was also prepared. He started to slow down as he approached the pier, and then also docked there.

They need to buy a large amount of ice and diesel. Ah Cai in the village only prepares what he needs every day. If you want to buy a large amount from them, you can't buy it. Occasionally, if you need it, you can ask him for some. The small house that repairs the machine

There is also a limited amount of diesel available every day.

The pier in town is the most convenient place to add ice and refuel.

There are no big ships docked around the dock in the town now. Those who should go out to sea have gone out at night because of the good weather. They don't want to wait until this time, which will delay things too much. He also has to watch the time, so he asked the Harvest to wait for him.

Ye Yaodong followed Pei's father off the boat and went to a nearby ice factory. After a while, the ice factory pushed two carts over to add ice to them.

The ice has been crushed in advance and poured directly into the cabin of the fishing boat through a thick pipe.

Fortunately, there are no fishing boats today. The boat that needs to add ice has already finished adding ice and left, so they don't need to queue up. In the future, they will have to add ice two or three days in advance to avoid the queue being too long.

After adding ice, he immediately refueled, which was diesel. He carried it directly to the boat in oil barrels and refueled it himself. He also prepared two more large barrels and carried them together to the machine warehouse.

All other supplies are already on board when you board the ship, and there is no need to add any additional supplies.

"Okay, let's go!"

"Let's go, let's go!"

Now is the real departure.

Ye Yaodong counted the people on site again. Soon after, everyone was ready, and the two boats slowly sailed away from the shore.

Father Ye ran to the cockpit and watched for a while, but was driven away by Ye Yaodong because he was being squeezed. He just asked him to watch from the deck. What could be wrong with the Harvest leading the way?

Father Ye thought it was right, so he stopped being in the way. The chicks had to take off anyway, and the Harvest would not lose its way in front.

After giving Dongzi a good start, he will be able to rest assured when he retires.

The fishing boat had to go quite a distance, and he didn't know where the Harvest had been operating in the past. Anyway, there was no need to use his brain to follow, as long as he kept a good bearing in mind.

It is no lie to say that the sea is full of wind and waves; there is no wind and only three feet of waves.

I didn't feel it on the shore, but there was a cold wind on the sea. As the fishing boat was moving, the waves kept beating on the hull, and the bow of the boat stirred up waves one after another. There was no cold wind blowing in his cockpit, but it was still.

good.

The crew on the deck boarded the Dongsheng and went to sea on the first day, which was quite new. They all stood on the deck and chatted in the cold breeze. They didn't even talk about going back to the cabin to lie down and rest. They probably made up for their sleep at night before setting off in the morning.

As soon as I got on the boat, I wasn’t sleepy or tired.

The same goes for Father Ye. Everyone is called by him and everyone is familiar to him. It is not too cold to follow everyone on the deck to blow the cold wind. Ye Yaodong saw that he was chatting particularly enthusiastically and his face was full of excitement. He was probably flattered by everyone.

Very happy.

In the endless ocean, two fishing boats moved forward firmly through the waves, one behind the other.

The hull of the boat was wetted by the sea water, shining with a cold light, the wind roared in the ears, and the waves beat hard against the hull of the boat, making a dull sound, as if it was conducting a severe test on the fishing boat.

Along the way, we occasionally saw one or two scattered trawlers operating on the sea. However, as the sun rose higher and higher, the fishing boats moved further and further away. The sea was endless and no fishing boats were seen anymore.

, there are only two fishing boats on the vast sea.

Compared to the natural landscape, their two boats appear extremely small. Some mentally unsound people may still have fear. After all, there is water on all sides, but their two boats are the only ones sailing in the middle of the sea.

There is no place to go before and no shop behind.

However, there were all old fishermen on the boat, and they were all used to it. Except for Chen Shi, whose face was pale. As the boat sailed farther and farther, nothing could be seen in all directions except the sea. He fell to the ground with weak legs.

After Ye Yaodong took a look, he saw that everyone was comforting him and left him alone for the time being. If he didn't get used to it, he could just put him in the workshop when he got back.

It is indeed not easy for such a teenager to stay with the boat for several days.

However, if you live by the sea, you must overcome whatever you can. In the face of life, you must bow your head when you should.

He checked the time again and set off at seven o'clock. He spent more than half an hour in town to refuel and add ice. It was already eleven o'clock at noon, and he didn't know when the Harvest was going to cast the net or where it was going.

go?

Just as he was looking at the time and thinking about it in his mind, he noticed a large shadow flashing in front of him. Surprised, he immediately looked up to find what it was.

There was an uproar on the deck, and the Harvest in front suddenly came to an emergency stop.

He looked ahead with confusion and suddenly stopped, and immediately slowed down.

At this time, he also spotted the manta ray leaping up in mid-air in front of him, like a huge black kite. His eyes widened and he quickly stopped the boat. The two boats stopped side by side, and then ran out of the cockpit.

He just stared at the parabolic manta fish without blinking, and trotted toward the people on the deck.

"father!"

"It's a manta ray, a huge manta ray, and there's a group of sharks on the sea in front of it."

Ye Yaodong also saw bulges and fish heads on the sea. From a distance, the skin of these sharks was as smooth as a mirror, shining with a cold light.

Facing the flight of the manta ray, they seemed a little helpless and could only watch the "kite" flying back and forth in the sky.

"Are so many sharks targeting this stingray?"

"I'm not sure. We just saw this manta ray flying up. Then your boat moved ahead and we saw a group of sharks below the sea. Seeing that you slowed down and stopped the boat, I didn't call you.

.”

"What the hell, there are so many sharks, and this one manta ray isn't enough?"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this devil is really big, flying in the air like a kite..."

"I don't know how long it will take to fly..."

"You should fall into the water soon and be attacked by sharks..."

Several crew members were talking among themselves, and even Chen Shi stared at the sea with his eyes wide open in disbelief. The paleness on his face had softened a bit, and there was no longer the bluish-looking face of death just now.

The body of the manta ray is flat and wide. When it leaps, it is like a kite in mid-air, but only for a short time.

Their tails are particularly developed, like a huge fan, helping them move flexibly in the water.

However, when they glide over the sea, they look like kites flying in the air, giving people a wonderful feeling.

Ye Yaodong also found it strange.

Suddenly there was another loud noise, like a cannon. The super-large manta ray flew to the sea ahead for a while and then fell into the water. The waves splashed more than ten meters high. Even though they were more than a hundred meters away,

Water drops even splashed in front of them.

"Can we leave now? Wow, those sharks are moving..."

"When will the Harvest launch the net? We've been driving for several hours, isn't it time yet?"

"It should be almost done. I can only cast two nets during the day and three nets at night..."

"Look...it's flying again...it's really like a kite..."

"Are you treating a shark like a monkey? I've only seen dog walkers, but I didn't expect there were shark walkers?"

"No, ah, ah, ah... look... look..."

People on the boat and the boat next door all exclaimed, and Ye Yaodong also let out a surprised cry!

I saw "black kites" suddenly rising from the sea in front of me, covering the sky and the sun in a large area, covering all the sharks under the water in shadow.
