Chapter 17
Chapter 16
Lance was frightened in a cold sweat. He did not expect that he would be seen the first time he jumped out of the sea.
How could there be humans on the sea after the black storm?
Lance is now in a mixed mood.
He wiggled his fishtails, swimming up and down the surface of the water.
Lance wanted to figure out why he became a mermaid, wanted to go ashore, and wanted to resume his previous life.
For example, walking on land and eating some cooked food, it is best to have a grilled fish.
However, Lance was not stupid, he did not dare to imagine what would happen if he was discovered by others.
Maybe it was kept in an aquarium as a pet, or maybe it was caught in a laboratory for dissection, no matter what kind of result, Lance didn’t want to see it.
Thinking of this, Lance wilted, and he wagged his tail, ready to dive.
And when he turned around, Lance heard a burst of singing.
The singing was intermittent, but the pitch was exactly the same song he had sang.
Lance hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, swam up quietly, half exposed his head on the sea, and carefully looked in the direction where the exclaim had just come from.
At this moment, he finally saw clearly that there was a lifeboat floating on the sea.
And this small boat is lonely, undulating with the waves on the sea, it seems that the next second, the rising waves will overturn the boat.
There was a black-haired young man standing on the bow of the boat. He firmly grasped the edge of the boat. His face was pale and the clothes on his body were messy, but he was humming the song Lance sang before, staring scorchingly in Lance’s direction. .
And the moment Lance exposed the sea, the black-haired young man locked his eyes on Lance, and he smiled at Lance.
Lance drew back into the sea.
How does he feel that this person is looking for him?
At this moment, he suddenly smelled the scent of cookies on the tip of his nose…
It’s still beef flavor.
“Guru”
Lance was hungry all of a sudden, he subconsciously moved a little bit towards the lifeboat, and stopped immediately.
Lance began to think about what was going on.
Reminiscent of the huge black storm before, Lance had a guess as to why the lifeboat appeared just now—
In this case, the ship should be a survivor.
Lance was silent for a while, and had no choice to turn around and leave immediately.
As the inner human being, he cannot abandon human beings and leave immediately.
Above the ocean, human beings simply cannot save themselves. Let alone the problem of lack of water, let the lifeboat float aimlessly on the water, and sooner or later the people on it will starve to death.
Lance moved his compassion, he turned his body and swam away, but he didn’t give up on the opponent, but wanted to see if there were islands nearby.
…
Wen Yu stood at the bow of the boat. He saw the white mermaid secretly watching him, but when the mermaid saw him, he immediately retracted.
This kind of vigilance didn’t annoy Wen Yu, his eyes couldn’t help overflowing with a smile, but he thought that the white mermaid was doing the right thing.
And behind Wen Yu, the red-haired young man threw away the clean compression bag in his hand with a frown, complaining:
“Boss, this is a waste.”
Wen Yu didn’t speak, he sat back.
Rose found the oar hidden in the dark from the cabin, handed it to Wen Yuhe, the red-haired young man Carl next to Wen Yuhe, and then asked:
“Colonel, what did you sing just now?”
Wen Yu took the oar, put it next to him, and explained as if talking to himself:
“I heard that mermaids like to sing, and their singing is also very good.”
Carl rolled his eyes secretly, he took the oar, and sincerely thought that Wen Yu was really sick in his head, and then curiously asked:
“Then, boss, did you see the mermaid just now?”
Wen Yu raised his head and glanced at Carl in an unclear way, without nodding or shaking his head.
“Enough, do you really think you are going to stage “Daughter of the Sea”?”
Rose was helpless, she was a little dissatisfied, “Shall we save ourselves first?”
“That said.”
Carl continued, “But we don’t know where we are. Now we are rowing. What if we row further and further away from the shore?”
Rose choked, then gave Carl an angry look.
“Wait tonight.”
Wen Yu said, “First use the stars to determine our position… Wait until we find the right position before rowing. Now, keep your strength and look for the things in this lifeboat. The most important thing now is to figure out our situation.”
The remaining two nodded and started to act.
And Wen Yu, sitting in place, couldn’t help but glance back at the direction where the white mermaid existed before.
His instinct told him that the mermaid did not give up on them.
In fact, Lance did not give up on them.
He worked in the sea for a long time before he found an island.
The island was quite big, an uninhabited island. After remembering the location of this island, Lance hurried back.
Exhausted fish.
When Lance found the lifeboat floating on the sea again, it was already late at night.
The sky is full of stars, and the milky white Milky Way is winding across the night sky.
Lance sneaked through the sea and looked at the night sky above his head, with peace and tranquility in his heart.
This starry sky was much more beautiful than he remembered, and he had never seen the Milky Way so clearly.
Human pollution on the earth makes seeing the night sky a luxury. In Lance’s memory, the night sky of the city is just a few scattered stars. Even when he was on a cruise ship and looked up at the starry sky from the deck, he could only Barely saw a milky white star belt.
Does this change indicate what has happened in human society?
Lance thought about the question suspiciously.
There was no sound on the rescue boat in the distance. Lance was under the sea, secretly observing the movement of the rescue boat.
After he finished eating the fillets in his hand, Lance slowly approached the lifeboat, then poked his head out and took a look.
There are three people in the lifeboat.
It seemed that they were very tired, lying in the cabin, closed their eyes, and fell asleep.
Lance breathed a sigh of relief.
He quietly approached the stern, trying to push the ship towards the uninhabited island.
Unexpectedly, Lance had just put the webbed claws on the boat, and before he pushed hard, his wrist was caught by a warm palm.
“Ka—”
Lance was shocked. When he looked up, he saw that the black-haired young man who should have been asleep did not know when he woke up. He grabbed one of Lance’s hand and smiled at Lance:
“Little fish?”
Damn it, got caught.
Lance was shocked and opened his mouth. When he was about to give the young man a mouthful, the black-haired young man had quick eyes and gave Lance a compressed plastic bag.
Lance:? ? ?
He bit the plastic bag in his mouth and was stunned.
“Do you understand me?”
The young man didn’t want to let go, he looked at Lance with a smile, and said,
“I didn’t mean anything.”
He looked at Lance, his eyes soft:
“Are you going to save us? Thank you.”
Lance: “…”
He stared at the youth, despised him, and tried to play stupid.
“My name is Wen Yu, do you have a name?”
Wen Yu squeezed the plastic bag in Lance’s mouth with one of his free hands and coaxed.
“Do you understand me? I will take out what’s in your mouth now. You are not allowed to bite me.”
Hearing this, Lance thought for a while, slowly opened his mouth, and let Wen Yu take out the plastic bag.
“You really understand what I’m talking about.”
Wen Yu didn’t let go of the hand holding Lance’s wrist. He looked at Lance, lowered his voice, and said to Lance,
“Your singing is so good.”
Lance blinked, he felt strange.
How does this human know the song he sings?
The reason why he didn’t choose to dive and drag this human being, Wen Yu into the sea, is because Wen Yu always exudes kindness to him and can sing his long song before.
Lance thought for a while, lowered his voice, and said solemnly:
“Ya—ka—”
My name is Lance. do you understand?
Wen Yu showed a dazed expression. He raised a finger and placed it in front of his lips:
“Little fish, don’t cry, this is a secret between you and me, and the rest of you don’t need to know.”
Lance was a little frustrated by this bull’s unanswered answer.
After a long time, Wen Yu could not understand his speech.
Why is it not equal?
Lance was a little frustrated.
After that, Lance’s gaze crossed Wen Yu, and he looked at the two people behind Wen Yu.
The two were lying in the cabin, still asleep.
That’s fine.
Lance breathed a sigh of relief, then made a gesture to bite the gentle hand on his wrist.
Wen Yu reflexively retracted his hand, and after he retracted his hand, when he realized that Lance was just scaring him, he couldn’t help but bend his eyes:
“You really came to save me.”
The last time it was an interrogative sentence, but this time, it became an affirmative statement and changed “we” into “me”.
Lance rolled his eyes at Wen Yu, and then tried to push the lifeboat in front of Wen Yu.
Wen Yu looked at Lance’s movements. He blinked and understood:
“You hope, is this ship going there?”
Lance nodded quickly.
“Why? Is there anyone in that direction?”
Lance hesitated for a while and shook his head.
“Is it because there are islands?”
Lance nodded quickly.
“Thank you.”
Wen Yu bent down, ignoring Lance’s avoidance, trying to touch Lance’s head.
Lance avoided Wen Yu’s hand, he bared his teeth at Wen Yu’s threat, and then he started pushing the boat again.
However, with such a big boat, there are still three people on board, even if the mermaid is talented, they can’t move it.
Lance thought for a while, ready to start from the front, and tried to pull the boat to see if it would work.
“Well, you don’t need to do this.”
Wen Yu saw Lance’s intentions, and he stepped forward and stopped Lance’s movements.
Lance looked up and looked at Wen Yu suspiciously.
why?
Does the other party have no desire to survive?
Seeing the doubt in Lance’s eyes, Wen Yu coldly pointed to the two people behind him:
“I will let them row a boat.”
Lance: “…”
This person is definitely the head of the three of them.
In fact, Lance was right.
“Let’s do some other things.”
Wen Yu tore open the plastic bag in his hand, took out a piece of jerky from it, and handed it to Lance.
“As a reward for showing me the direction, how about I give you beef jerky?”
Lance looked at the beef jerky at Wen Yu’s fingertips, and silently swallowed a sip of water.
God knows how much he wants to eat these things, always eating sashimi, really can’t bear it.
He looked at Wen Yu hesitantly and saw that the other party had a sincere expression. Finally, he cautiously stepped forward and ate the beef jerky that the other party had fed.
…
Early the next morning, Karl and Rose woke up and saw their heads, standing on the bow of the boat, with two large sea fishes that were dead and dead at their feet.
Rose and Carl were stunned. After a while, Carl was surprised:
“Boss, have you fished in the sea?”
Wen Yu calmly looked back:
“Ok.”
Then he said very coldly:
“I want to eat it myself, and after I finish it, I start rowing.”
“Where are you going?”
Carl looked confused.
They didn’t even figure out where they were last night.
After all, they are all soldiers, and they don’t have any professional sailing knowledge at all. Although they have equipment, they still have to study and study the manual.
Wen Yu pointed to the west and said firmly:
“This direction.”
Rose looked in the direction of Wen Yu’s fingers, and asked hesitantly:
“Can’t it go wrong?”
“will not.”
Wen Yu said, “Hurry up, collect fresh water first, and then eat the fish. You can only row after you have the strength.”
And below the surface of the ship’s bow, a beautiful white fish tail flicked, and then plunged into the sea.
