Just when she was desperate, suddenly, a head appeared on the sea. She wiped her eyes with her bangs and exclaimed:
"It's the young master, it's the young master."
Su Muer looked in the direction of his finger and saw Ye Shihan sticking his head out of the water and wiping the water stains on his face with his hands.
Seeing this scene, she couldn't help crying with joy,
"Ye Shihan, I know you won't die."
She murmured softly in her mouth, and suddenly her eyes, which were cloudy just now, became clear.
So, she and Liu Hai worked hard to pull him up.
When he finally climbed onto the deck of the ship, he was soaked all over, with not only water stains but also blood stains. His hair was stuck to his face and his clothes were in a mess.
She suddenly took two steps forward, hugged him, and kept patting his chest.
"You scared me to death just now. I thought you were dead."
He raised his hand, held up her head, helped her wipe away the tears on her face, and looked at her with a pair of tired but affectionate eyes,
"You cried for me? Are you worried about me?"
His voice was so ambiguous that she couldn't help biting her lips and looking at his water-stained face. Now she suddenly felt that she wanted to look at his face for a while longer.
At this time, Liu Wu trotted over panting, "Master, this can't go on. Let's abandon a few people."
"What's the meaning?"
Hearing what he said, Ye Shihan's face suddenly turned pale, and Su Muer's eyes were filled with confusion.
Liu Wu shook his head sadly, "There are rules at sea. If you encounter a shark, you must feed it with people. Otherwise, I am afraid that the entire boat will be buried in the belly of the fish."
"no."
The moment he finished speaking, Ye Shihan said decisively, "It's a mortal body raised by my mother's biological father. How can I feed it to sharks alive?"
"But if we don't do that, we will all die here."
Liu Wu fell to his knees directly, his voice suddenly rose, his eyes turned red with anxiety,
"If something happens to His Highness this time, I'm afraid that even if I, Liu Wu, take my own life, it won't be enough to save His Highness's life. If it really doesn't work, I'll jump down, but there are so many sharks that I can't do it alone."
His words silenced Ye Shihan.
He glanced down and saw that on the sea where they were now, because he had just killed one of the sharks, the other sharks smelled the smell of blood and were rushing towards this side.
If it is not stopped in time, I am afraid that the ship will really be capsized.
Just when he was overwhelmed with anxiety, Su Muer's eyes suddenly lit up and she exclaimed loudly,
"Horse, put the horse down."
Her words immediately reminded Ye Shihan and Liu Wu.
Liu Hai hurriedly came out to stop,
"Your Highness, you can let go of the other horses, but not your horse. It was a gift from the Emperor, and I have feelings for Your Highness."
"What time has it been? It's not certain whether a person can live or not. How can we still consider the horse? Liu Wu, go get the horse and throw it down."
Hearing this, Liu Wu nodded heavily, "Quick, hurry up and lead the horse with me."
Against the biting sea breeze, Liu Wu turned around to greet the boatmen.
The boat was still shaking, and the other sharks smelled the smell of blood and gathered around the shark that Ye Shihan had just killed.
Perhaps when they saw their companions being killed, the sharks suddenly launched a more violent attack on the ship.
"ah……"
As the boat swayed, Su Muer's body became unstable again. Ye Shihan directly held her in his arms this time, completely ignoring everything else and just wanted to protect her.
The ship began to shake wildly again. Ye Shihan tightly grasped the rail of the ship with one hand, and clamped her tightly in his arms with the other hand, while his eyes looked around nervously.
At this time, Liu Wu and several boatmen each led a horse to the general deck and stood there. The horses were also roaring, especially Ye Shihan's handsome brown horse.
Liu Wu took a few steps back, knelt down on the deck, kowtowed three times to the horses, then clasped his hands together and muttered something.
Ye Shihan looked at the horse he had been riding for ten years, and his heart ached. He held her shoulders tightly, his teeth chattering loudly, and his face was filled with a dark and cold look.
Su Mu'er looked up at him with a side face. She knew that he must be feeling sad.
He spoke and murmured to himself,
"It has been with me for ten years, like my biological brother, but today I want to let it wrap up in the belly of a fish and sink into the sea..."
She could see that his eyes were filled with tears, but compared to human life, what could be done.
"Sir, we cannot abandon our horse."
Liu Hai rushed over like crazy, and the horse seemed to be looking at Ye Shihan expectantly, and kept roaring.
Ye Shihan's dark pupils were covered with a layer of mist, and he shook his head, "Our horse is also a horse, and it is also a horse. If it only keeps itself, it would be unfair to the other horses. Give it up. In order to save its owner,
I can only abandon it."
He stared at the horse, and although he was reluctant to give up, he waved his hand to Liu Hai cruelly, indicating that he should take action as soon as possible.
The ship is becoming more and more bumpy. Time waits for no one. If you wait just one more second, the ship may be overturned.
At this time, Liu Wu stood up straight, holding a long pole in his hand, and shouted loudly,
"Horses, for the sake of your master, I have no choice but to abandon you. You are considered a meritorious deed. I wish you will be human beings in your next life and no longer be animals."
After saying that, he picked up the long pole and drove the horses, and the rest of the people also drove the horses. Suddenly, the horses fell into the sea one after another, and the sharks rushed over like crazy and bit them.
This scene is a bit cruel, but it is helpless.
It's much better than throwing people down.
All the horses were pushed into the sea, and the group of sharks stopped attacking the ship and went to tear the horses apart.
Seeing this, Liu Wu suddenly shouted,
"Quick, set sail and get out of here."
Upon hearing this, the boatmen returned to their respective posts and prepared to move on.
The ship began to slowly start, leaving the bloody sea area as quickly as possible, and the sea surface finally returned to calm.
After all this was over, Ye Shihan changed into his naked clothes and sat down on the deck. The sea breeze blew gently, making his face darker and his brows furrowed deeper.
Su Mu'er sat next to him and followed his gaze at the calm sea.
The experience of life and death just now seems to have never been like this before, and it is still as calm as usual.
"Are you reluctant to let go?" she whispered, thinking of the scenes of those horses being bitten by sharks, she always felt sad in her heart.
His eyes were empty, staring directly at the sea in the distance,
"So what can I do if I don't want to let go? I can't watch those boatmen being thrown off the ship alive. They are also human beings and have families to support."
Hearing what he said and thinking of Liu Wu's words, Su Muer's heart suddenly tightened.
"It's really hard for people who rely on the sea to make a living. If you encounter a shark, you have to face the possibility of being thrown into the sea and fed to the sharks. This is really scary."
