Return To 1977 Chapter 149: Spark Bay
lnmao.org, the fastest update to return to the latest chapter of 1977!
The sea on the other side of the mountain is called "Full Moon Beach". It is a relatively quiet coast. Even on a windy day, the waves are not strong enough to hurt people's bones.
Most of the "sea bumpers" can run rampant in such a sea, just like walking on flat ground, but because of this, the "goods" there cannot be stored, and no one can expect to get a "goods" wherever they go. Harvest".
The "Xinghuo Bay" here is different. This is the real sea.
Here, the wind is strong and the waves are strong, and the breaking waves hit the steep bank day and night like a knife and an axe, and it is all yellow flint. This kind of hard stone will burst out sparks when hit, and this is the reason why this place got its name.
In addition, the most crucial point is that the sea here is not just a blue plane. If you look carefully, people with good eyesight and attentiveness will probably find that there are several bands of slightly different colors in the flashing ripples, which are the sea waves here.
It is precisely because of this magnificent barrier that the impetuous and noisy world is separated here. It has become a field where only "old saury" can gain something, excluding most ordinary people.
This day is May 20, 1977, the third day of April in the lunar calendar, a good day for the biggest flood.
As the evening approached, "Old Swordfish" almost entered the water at the limit of "dry tide" (jargon, refers to low tide). He has been waiting calmly next to "Hai Liuzi". In the process, everything in the ocean Not even the slightest movement escaped his observation.
Finally, just as the setting sun turned the sky golden, he caught the long-lost yet familiar signal. Then he took a long breath with excitement and plunged towards the bottom of the sea without hesitation.
The bottom of the sea is now very different. Not only has the water level dropped by at least six or seven meters, but the overwhelming turbulence and the coldness that can withstand people thousands of miles away are completely gone.
The sea cucumbers, abalones, and scallops clustered around the reef, usually protected by sea currents, were completely exposed without any obstruction. They were all lying there like naked women. , anyone can pick whatever they want.
The temptation of this rich product makes "Old Sabry" secretly feel satisfied. Those young juniors who have no hair on their lips and only love to make fun of him would never even dream that the treasure under Hai Liuzi could actually be easily obtained at a certain special moment of the day.
Those ignorant boys still dare to call themselves "Haichangzi"? Humph, it’s still far away!
Only he can enjoy this kind of fun! This is the kind of hospitality that the Dragon King only entertains old friends!
Soon we dived to the bottom of the sea, and the water temperature became extremely bitter.
"Old Swordfish" didn't hesitate at all, and impatiently harvested the fat sea cucumbers that crowded the crevices of the reef first. It was not difficult for him to make this choice, because sea cucumbers are the easiest to obtain and have the greatest economic value.
He held his hand pocket with his left hand and grabbed the chubby sea cucumbers with his right hand. While stuffing it into his pocket, he counted it secretly.
"One, two, three, four..."
Hai Bangzi’s first breath into the water is the longest. When “Lao Daoyu” was in his prime, he could get twenty sea cucumbers in his first breath. This record has not been achieved by anyone among the "Hai Bangzi" he knows today.
But unfortunately, even he can't do it now. No, just after reaching the fifth number, his chest began to tighten and his eyes bulged out at the same time. By the tenth integer, he even felt that his whole body was about to burst. In short, it is simply worse than death.
So at this time, he couldn't care about anything and could only rush towards the water like crazy. When he came out of the water, he inhaled like crazy again. Only when he had taken enough breath did he realize more clearly that his old age was useless and he could only hold on for such a short time underwater.
But even a moment of sentimentality was a luxury for him at this time, because the Dragon King's treat did not last long. Therefore, as soon as he recovered, he had to immediately put the harvest in the "net float", then turn around and return to the bottom of the sea, trying to get more protection for the whole family's life within a limited time.
Just like that, he plunged in again. The tall yellow mountain wall in the setting sun shook in his water mirror and disappeared into the dark green. For a while, he repeated this action desperately and quickly. Come out, dig in, gasp, hold your breath. Constantly diving, and constantly emerging.
He worked hard to catch every sea cucumber! He hopes to catch at least a hundred sea cucumbers!
Because his wife is still waiting for money to buy medicine to treat her illness, and his daughter who is far away in a foreign land has to rely on the money from selling overseas goods to avoid suffering.
As a man, it is a lifelong responsibility to feed and support his wife and children so that they have enough food and clothing!
Unfortunately, after about seven or eight punches, an unexpected situation occurred. Suddenly, "Old Saury" felt a pain as if his head was splitting, his eyes hurt, and he also felt severe nausea.
He immediately realized that this was a superficial symptom of "diving sickness", which is an occupational disease caused by excessive body weight.
He also knows very well that once this disease attacks, he will have difficulty breathing and become dizzy after a while, so naturally he will no longer be able to continue exploring the seabed and obtain the gifts of the sea.
For all "sea bumpers", there is nothing more disappointing than seeing "prey" but being helpless. As for the "Old Sabryfish", he is now even more disappointed and depressed than just scratching his heart, scratching his lungs, and tearing out his liver. And he immediately realized a more serious problem - he himself was in considerable danger.
Because he went into the sea alone, based on his physical condition after the onset of "diving disease", not to mention that if he did not get timely rest, it would lead to serious consequences of paralysis or even death. Even if the sea currents start to flow again later, he may not be able to compete with it, and he may be swept into the deep sea. So now, no matter how unwilling he is, he must stop, and the first priority is to swim back to the shore.
In a burst of unstoppable annoyance, "Old Saury"'s hopes all came to nothing. But he was still very decisive. Once he decided, he immediately grabbed his "net float" and started swimming towards the shore.
It should be said that if his body is in normal condition, even if he is exhausted after catching the "goods" in the water, swimming from the water to the shore is quite enjoyable. Because he will feel that the golden coast and the towering flints are smiling at him.
But in this current state, no matter how much energy he has left, he will feel that his body is not in control, has lost vitality, and has become extremely numb. And whether it was due to "diving disease" or because his body could no longer withstand the cold temperature of the water, he even started twitching involuntarily.
So the "net float" loaded with harvest was extremely heavy. Even if he tried his best to paddle his body and kick and turn his legs, it was like a person who couldn't swim and was flapping around. After ten minutes, he swam out. The distance is really pitiful.
At this time, he even felt that the water, the shore, the sea cucumbers and the "net drifters" had all merged into a blurry mass. He was dizzy and could hardly see anything clearly. He immediately realized that he had to make another painful choice. That is to abandon today's gains, maybe to save your life.
But just when he wanted to let go of the "Internet drifter", his wife's cough and his daughter's tearful letter home filled his heart with an emotion that was really difficult to let go. He couldn't let go at all. This is what he has gained in exchange for his life, and it is the hope of the whole family. It is too difficult to give up categorically.
As a result, he hesitated and wasted a few more minutes. By the time he figured it out again, everything seemed to be too late.
The sea seemed to shake a little, causing turbulence to flow. In other words, Hailiuzi's two packs of cigarette time to catch his breath has completely passed. Suddenly, it was as if countless hands stretched out from the dark green waves and pulled the "Old Sabryfish" into the stream desperately.
At this time, even if he completely let go of his hand, his body would always swing sideways. No matter how hard he swam forward, he was always pulled into a diagonal line by this brute force. Soon he was unable to resist and was pulled to the bottom of the sea by the water.
This rush caused him to lose his direction. When he desperately came to the surface again, he was knocked unconscious and could not tell the difference between east, west and north.
However, even if the other person is still awake, there is no time for him to distinguish. The tide has indeed risen, and the water in the old ocean is overwhelming, as if to engulf him and the "net floats" floating on the water. As if pulling down desperately. At this moment, he felt very clearly that the **** of death had strangled his neck.
The Dragon King is going to have a guest, and he can’t bear to leave his old friend. But what about his wife and his daughter?
To say that he has taken too many things from the sea in this life, it is appropriate to give his life back. But if he died now, all the family's livelihood would be ruined.
How can the two of them survive...
Just when all the sparks of hope in "Old Saury" were gradually extinguished and he had given up, he could not help but have such random thoughts in his mind. Under the high rock wall of "Xinghuo Bay", a magical spark suddenly flashed out.
No, not Mars! That was a bonfire burning on the shore!
And at the same time, under the gradually lonely afterglow of the sky, two strong black figures appeared out of thin air in the sea, breaking through the rolling waves like arrows, and swam towards the "Old Sabryfish" extremely quickly.
At the same time, a loud shout of "Old man, hold on!" broke through the sea water and rekindled the "old saury's" expectation of "life".
Needless to say, someone came to save him!
So the "Old Swordfish" began to fight against the waves again, trying to float on the water and not sink.
He knew that other than those few boys from the capital who were looking for the "Conquering the Tiger and the Dragon", it would not be anyone else.
In the past three days, they followed him here and have been pestering him. And he never gave them a good look, but he never expected that they would be the ones to save him now!
My fate, who are you?
God, how did you arrange it?
Perhaps "Xinghuo Bay" is true to its name, and it is really a place that can bring hope to people...
Just when "Old Swordfish" thought of this, his strong hand had already grabbed him. Another dark figure, without stopping, swam sideways and pounced on the "net float" loaded with sea cucumbers that had been taken away by the waves.
"No! There are Hailiuzi there! Don't..."
"Old Swordfish" stopped him urgently. He couldn't let his rescuers take this risk again. They were foreigners and I'm afraid they couldn't resist the power of the tide. Unfortunately, his mouth was suddenly blocked by another mouthful of salty sea water.
But what is surprising is that after a while, the man actually successfully dragged the "net drifter" back and swam back. It looks like a gunboat, using its body to draw a long wave path, which is enough to prove that its physical strength is far beyond ordinary people. No worse than when he was in his prime.
As he couldn't help but burst into tears, the three of them finally gathered together and swam towards the half-dark shore...
