Lance was covered in cold sweat from the fright. He never thought that the first time he jumped out of the sea, he would be seen by others.
How could there be humans on the sea after the black storm
Lance is in a mixed mood right now.
He swung his tail and swam back and forth just below the surface.
Lance wants to find out why he became a mermaid, wants to go ashore, and wants to restore his previous life.
For example, walk on land and eat some cooked food, preferably a grilled fish.
However, Lance was not stupid, he didn't dare to imagine what would happen if someone discovered his appearance.
Maybe it was kept as a pet in the aquarium, or maybe it was taken into the laboratory for dissection, no matter what the result was, Lance didn't want to see it.
Thinking of this, Lance wilted. He wagged his tail and prepared to dive.
When he turned around, Lance suddenly heard a burst of singing.
The singing came in fits and starts, but the key was exactly that of a song he had sung.
Lance hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and swam up quietly, with his head half exposed on the sea surface, carefully looking in the direction of the exclamation just now.
This time, he finally saw clearly that there was a lifeboat floating on the sea.
And this small boat is alone, rising and falling with the waves on the sea surface, it seems that the next second, the waves will overturn the boat.
Standing at the bow was a black-haired young man, he was firmly grasping the edge of the boat, his face was pale, and his clothes were messy, but he was humming the song Lance sang before, and stared at the direction of Lance .
And the moment Lance emerged from the sea, the black-haired young man locked his eyes on Lance, and he smiled at Lance.
Lance immediately retracted into the water.
How did he feel that this person was looking for him
At this time, he suddenly smelled the scent of biscuits...
It still tastes like beef.
"grunt"
Lance was hungry all of a sudden, he subconsciously moved a little towards the lifeboat, then stopped immediately.
Lance began to think about what was going on.
Thinking of the huge black storm before, Lance had a guess as to why the lifeboat appeared just now—
In that case, there should be survivors on that ship.
Lance was silent for a while, and did not choose to turn around and leave immediately.
As a human being, he cannot abandon human beings immediately.
On the ocean, human beings simply cannot save themselves, not to mention the lack of water, just let the lifeboat float aimlessly on the water, the people on it will starve to death sooner or later.
Lance was moved with compassion, he turned his body and swam away, but he didn't give up on the other party, but wanted to see if there were any islands nearby.
…
Wen Yu stood at the bow of the boat, and he saw the white mermaid secretly watching him, but when the mermaid saw him, it immediately shrank back.
This kind of vigilance didn't annoy Wen Yu, he couldn't help but smile, but thought that the white mermaid was doing the right thing.
Behind Wen Yu, the red-haired young man threw away the clean compression bag with a sad face, and complained:
"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 Yu and the red-haired young man Carl next to him, and asked:
"Colonel, what did you just sing about...?"
Wen Yu took the oar, put it beside him, and explained as if talking to himself:
"I heard that mermaids like to sing, and their singing is also very nice."
Carl secretly rolled his eyes. He took the oar and thought sincerely that Wen Yu was really out of his mind. Then he asked curiously:
"Then, boss, did you see that mermaid just now?"
Wen Yu raised his head and glanced at Carl with unclear meaning, without nodding or shaking his head.
"Enough, do you really think "The Daughter of the Sea" will be staged?"
Rose was helpless, she was a little dissatisfied, "We have to save ourselves first, shall we?"
"That being said."
Carl continued, "But we don't know where we are. What if we are rowing farther and farther away from the shore?"
Rose choked for a moment, and then glared at Carl angrily.
"We'll talk about it tonight."
Wen Yu said, "First use the stars to determine our position... wait until we find the correct direction before rowing the boat. Now, maintain your strength and look for the things inside this lifeboat. The most urgent thing now is to figure out our situation."
The remaining two nodded and started to act.
As for Wen Yu, he sat where he was, and couldn't help but look back at the direction where the white mermaid existed before.
His gut told him that the merman hadn't given up on them.
In fact, Lance did not give up on them.
After working in the sea for a long time, he found a small island.
The small island was quite big, and it was an uninhabited island. After remembering the location of the small island, Lance turned back in a hurry.
Tired of a fish.
By the time Lance found the lifeboat floating on the sea again, it was already late at night.
The sky is full of stars, and the milky Milky Way winds across the night sky.
Lance sneaked through the sea, looking at the night sky above his head, feeling peaceful and serene.
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 has made seeing the night sky a luxury. In Lance's memory, the night sky of the city is just a few scattered stars. Even if he was on a cruise ship and looked up at the starry sky on the deck, he could only A milky white star band was barely visible.
Does this change explain what happened to human society
Lance thought about it suspiciously.
There was no sound on the lifeboat in the distance. Lance was secretly observing the movement of the lifeboat under the surface of the sea.
After he finished eating the fish fillet in his hand, Lance slowly approached the lifeboat, then poked his head out and took a look.
There were three people in the lifeboat.
It seemed that they were extremely tired, lying in the cabin, eyes closed, and fell asleep.
Lance breathed a sigh of relief.
He quietly approached the stern, trying to push the boat towards the uninhabited island.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Lance put the webbed claws on the boat, before he pushed hard, his wrist was grabbed by a warm palm.
"ka—"
Lance was shocked. When he looked up, he saw the black-haired young man who was supposed to be asleep woke up at some point. He grabbed Lance's hand and smiled at Lance:
"Little fish?"
Fuck, got caught.
Lance was startled, opened his mouth, and was about to give the young man a mouthful, when the black-haired young man had sharp eyes and quick hands, and gave Lance a compressed plastic bag.
Lance:? ?
He bit the plastic bag in his mouth and froze.
"Can you understand me?"
The young man was unwilling to let go, he looked at Lance with a smile, and said,
"I mean no harm."
He looked at Lance with tender eyes:
"Are you going to save us? Thank you."
Lance: "..."
He stared at the young man with contempt, and tried to play dumb.
"My name is Wen Yu, do you have a name?"
With his free hand, Wen Yu squeezed the plastic bag in Lance's mouth, coaxing,
"Can you understand me? I'll take out what's in your mouth now, don't bite me."
Hearing this, Lance thought for a while, then slowly opened his mouth and asked Wen Yu to take out the plastic bag.
"You really understand what I'm saying."
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 voice is really nice."
Lance blinked, feeling weird.
How did this human being know the song he sang
The reason why he didn't choose to dive and drag this human being, that is, Wen Yu into the sea, was because Wen Yu always radiated kindness to him and could sing his old songs.
Lance thought for a while, lowered his voice, and said seriously:
"ya—ka—"
My name is Lance. do you understand
Wen Yu showed a blank expression, he raised a finger and put it to his lips:
"Little fish, don't bark, 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 wrong answer.
After a long time, Wen Yu actually couldn't understand what he said.
Why not equal
Lance was a little frustrated.
After that, Lance looked past Wen Yu, and he looked at the two people behind Wen Yu.
The two were lying in the cabin, still in a coma.
That's fine.
Lance breathed a sigh of relief, and then made a gesture to bite Wen Yu's hand on his wrist.
Wen Yu withdrew his hand reflexively. After he withdrew his hand, when he realized that Lance was just scaring him, he couldn't help but frown:
"You really came to save me."
The last time it was an interrogative sentence, but this time, it became an affirmative statement sentence, and changed "we" into "I".
Lance rolled his eyes at Wen Yu, and then tried to push the lifeboat in front of Wen Yu.
Wen Yu watched Lance's movements, he blinked and understood:
"Do you want this ship to go there?"
Lance nodded quickly.
"Why? Is there anyone in that direction?"
Lance hesitated for a moment, then shook his head.
"Is it because of the islands?"
Lance nodded quickly.
"thanks."
Wen Yu bent down, regardless of Lance's avoidance, and wanted to touch Lance's head.
Lance dodged Wen Yu's hand, bared his teeth threateningly at Wen Yu, and then started pushing the boat again.
However, with such a big boat, there are three people on board, even if the mermaid is very talented, it can't push it.
Lance thought about it, and prepared to start from the front and try to pull the boat to see if it would work.
"Well, you don't have to do that."
Wen Yu saw Lance's intentions, and he stepped forward to stop Lance from moving.
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'll let them row."
Lance: "..."
This man is definitely the head of the three of them.
In fact, Lance guessed right.
"Let's do some of the rest."
Wen Yu tore open the plastic bag in his hand, took out a piece of jerky from it, and handed it to Lance.
"How about I give you beef jerky as a reward for giving me directions?"
Lance looked at the beef jerky on Wen Yu's fingertips, and swallowed silently.
God knows how much he wants to eat these things, he can't stand eating sashimi all the time.
He looked at Wen Yu hesitantly, seeing the sincerity on his face, and finally, he stepped forward cautiously and ate the beef jerky that he fed.
…
Early the next morning, Carl and Rose woke up, only to see their heads standing on the bow of the boat, and at their feet were two large dead sea fish.
Rose and Karl were stunned. After a while, Karl said in surprise:
"Boss, have you gone fishing?"
Wen Yu turned back calmly:
"Um."
Then he said very grimly:
"If you want to eat, make it yourself, and, after finishing it, start rowing."
"Where are you going?"
Carl looked confused.
They hadn't even figured out where they were last night.
After all, they are all soldiers and have no professional navigation knowledge at all. Although they have instruments and so on, they still need to study the instructions.
Wen Yu pointed to the west and said firmly:
"This direction."
Rose looked in the direction of Wen Yu's finger, and asked hesitantly:
"Won't it go wrong?"
"Won't."
Wen Yu said, "Hurry up, collect fresh water first, then eat the fish, and row the boat when you gain strength."
And under the sea surface of the bow, a beautiful white fish flicked its tail, and then plunged into the water.
