"They like to watch their prey struggle until they drown, and then enjoy their delicious food. Your sudden appearance to save me will undoubtedly anger them. Just let me go and walk away. I think the spray in your hand will be effective against them, and it should be able to protect you from getting away unscathed."
The sound of waves crashing behind me was getting closer and closer.
Grandma Chunhua could feel the impact of the waves, and her voice became more trembling: "You, don't worry about me, run away quickly, it's not too late."
As she spoke, she struggled to untie the ropes around her body with her shriveled arms, not wanting to drag a young girl to death with her.
At this time, Qiao Nian took the time to grab her hand from behind to untie the rope, and turned his head to look at the group of sharks chasing closely behind him. There was only calmness in his dark eyes.
"Don't be afraid, trust me!"
"Little girl..."
Qiao Nian swam faster, and at the same time, Sam and others on the shore pulled the rope with all their strength to pull the people up.
Even though Qiao Nian and the others were still thousands of meters away from the shore, it was impossible for them to be pulled up just by speeding up.
Sam's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, which rolled down his dark face and dripped onto the ground. His eyes were red as if they were about to bleed.
The shark was only 50 meters away.
30 meters.
10 m.
Seeing that those deep-sea overlords only needed to move forward a little bit, they could bite Qiao Nian’s arm with their mouths raised... All the people on the shore felt sorry for the young girl, thinking that she was going to lose her life because of a momentary impulse.
A miracle happened!
When the sharks were only a head away from the fish, they suddenly stopped as if they were blocked by an invisible barrier.
The leading shark stopped, and the sharks chasing behind it all stopped one after another, forming a line, swinging their tails angrily and circling outside the line, as if trying to break through some invisible constraints... but they had to retreat little by little.
"What's happening here?"
"Strange, what happened to those sharks?" "Sharks...sharks turned around and swam away!"
The people on the shore looked closely.
Sure enough, the group of sharks chasing them lingered at the edge for a while, then turned their heads away from Qiao Nian and Grandma Chunhua, and returned to the sea...
Everyone was extremely shocked. This scene was so shocking that they didn't know what to say. They just watched silently as the girl swam back from the sea.
It was not until Qiao Nian brought the old woman ashore that Sam rushed over to support Grandma Chunhua, whose face was as pale as paper, and tears began to flow.
"Granny!"
Grandma Chunhua soaked in the water for an hour. She was exhausted, but she still patted her grandson's hand and silently comforted him: "It's okay, I'm okay."
The crowd watching on the shore finally came to their senses from their astonishment and burst into cheers and applause mixed with praise for the brave man.
The man who had previously said that Qiao Nian was a woman and was afraid to go into the water to save her ran away from the crowd in shame.
Qiao Nian saw it, but did not expose him.
He shook off the water droplets on his hair, walked slowly to Sam, looked at the boy with red eyes from crying, and raised the corners of his mouth.
"I said I would bring your grandma back safely. Did I not disappoint you?"
"Thank you, thank you." The young man choked up and looked at Qiao Nian as if he had saved his life: "Thank you."
After all, he was a big boy and quite shy. He wiped away his tears and looked at the girl with red eyes, his curiosity could not be suppressed.
"Why did those sharks suddenly stop chasing me? Is it related to the lemonade I poured?"
