Chapter 3 Spark Bay

The sea on the other side of the mountain is called "Full Moon Beach". It is a relatively quiet coast. Even on windy days, the waves are not strong enough to hurt people's bones.

Most of the "sea bumpers" can run wild 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 a "big harvest" wherever they go.

.

But 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. It is full of yellow flint. This kind of hard stone will burst out sparks when it is hit, and this is

The reason why this place got its name.

In addition, the most critical point is that the sea here is not just a blue plane. If you look carefully, people with good eyesight and carefulness will probably find that there are also things in those flashing ripples.

A few ribbons with slightly different colors are the Hai Liuzi here.

It is precisely because of this magnificent barrier that this place is separated from the impetuous and noisy world. 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 the fourth lunar month, 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 had been waiting calmly next to "Hai Liuzi". In the process, all the subtle movements in the ocean were noticed.

Couldn't escape his observation.

Finally, just as the setting sun turned the sky into a golden color, he caught the long-lost and familiar signal. Then he took a long breath with excitement, and dived towards the bottom of the sea without hesitation.

The seabed was completely different at this time. Not only had the water level dropped by at least six or seven meters, but the overwhelming turbulence and the coldness that could repel people thousands of miles away from the normal sea flow were completely gone.

The sea cucumbers, abalones, and scallops that clustered around the reef and were usually protected by sea currents were completely exposed without any obstruction. They were all like naked women, lying there honestly and letting anyone eat them.

Pick whatever you want.

The temptation of this kind of rich product makes "Old Swordfish" secretly feel a sense of satisfaction. Those young people who have no hair on their lips and only love to make fun of him may not even dream that the treasure under Hailiuzi is actually in

A special moment of the day can be easily obtained.

Those ignorant boys still dare to call themselves "Haichangzi"? Humph, they're still far from it!

This is the kind of fun that only he can enjoy! This is the kind of hospitality that the Dragon King only entertains his old friends!

Soon we dived to the bottom of the sea, and the water temperature became extremely bitter.

"Old Swordfish" did not hesitate at all, and impatiently harvested the fat sea cucumbers that crowded the crevices of the reef first. He was not embarrassed to make this choice, because sea cucumbers are the easiest to get and have the greatest economic value.

He held his pocket with his left hand and grabbed the chubby sea cucumbers with his right hand. He stuffed them into his pocket and secretly counted them.

"One, two, three, four..."

"Hai Bangzi" had the longest first breath when he entered the water. When "Lao Daoyu" was in his prime, he could get twenty sea cucumbers in the first breath. This record is among the "Hai Bangzi" he knows now.

No one can achieve it yet.

But it's a pity that even he can't do it now. No, as soon as he reached the fifth number, his chest began to tighten and his eyes bulged out at the same time. By the tenth integer, he even felt

My whole body is about to burst apart. In short, it is simply worse than death.

So at this time, he couldn't care about anything and could only rush toward the surface of the water like crazy. When he came out of the water, he breathed in like crazy again. It wasn't until he took enough breath that he realized more clearly that his old age was useless.

, can only last so little 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, he had just calmed down, and he had to put the harvest on the "net drifter" immediately.

, then turn around and return to the bottom of the sea, trying to get more protection for the whole family within a limited time.

Just like that, he plunged in again. The tall yellow mountain wall under the setting sun shook in his water mirror and disappeared into the dark green. For a while, he repeated this action desperately and quickly to get out.

, plunge down, gasp, hold your breath. Keep diving, and keep rising.

He worked hard to catch every sea cucumber! He hoped 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 money from selling overseas goods to avoid suffering.

As a man, it is a lifelong responsibility to feed and support his wife and children!

Unfortunately, after about seven or eight stabs, an unexpected situation occurred. Suddenly, "Old Sabryfish" felt pain like a split head, eye pain, and 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 "Hai Bangzi", nothing is more disappointing than seeing "prey" but being helpless. As for "Old Saberfish", he is not only scratching the heart, scratching the lungs, and digging out

He was extremely lost and depressed. He also immediately realized a more serious problem - he himself was already in a considerable danger.

Because he went into the sea alone, and based on his physical condition after the onset of "diving sickness", not to mention that if he did not get timely rest, it would lead to serious consequences of paralysis or even death. He would just wait until the sea currents started to flow again.

, he might not be able to fight against it, or he might be rushed into the deep sea. So now, even if he is unwilling, he must stop, and the first priority is to swim back to the shore.

In a burst of unstoppable annoyance, "Old Saberfish"'s hopes were all in vain. But he was still very decisive. Once he made the decision, 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, it will be quite pleasant to swim to the shore from the water. Because he will feel the golden coast and feel high.

The towering flints dodged and smiled at him.

But in this current state, no matter how much energy he still has, he will feel that his body is not in control, has lost vitality, and has become extremely numb. And I don't know if it is because of "diving disease" or because his body can no longer bear the water.

He even twitched involuntarily due to the cold temperature.

Therefore, 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 would still be like a person who can't swim. After ten minutes, the distance he swam was actually quite large.

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 do another painful thing now.

The choice is to give up what you have gained today, maybe you can 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, making him unable to let go.

He couldn't let go. This was what he had gained with his life, and it was the hope of the whole family. It was too difficult to give up categorically.

As a result, he hesitated and wasted a few 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, the two packs of cigarettes that Hailiuzi took to rest his breath had completely passed. Suddenly, it was like countless hands suddenly stretched out in the dark green waves, pulling "Old Man"

"The knife fish" was dragged into the stream with all its strength.

At this time, even if he completely let go of his hand, his body would always swing sideways. No matter how hard he tried to swim forward, he was always pulled into a diagonal line by this brute force. Soon he was unable to resist and was pulled

The sea water is pulled to the bottom of the sea.

This rush made him lose his direction. When he desperately came to the surface again, he was knocked unconscious and couldn't tell the difference between east, west and north.

However, even if the other person is still awake, there is no time for him to tell that the tide has indeed risen, and the water in the old ocean is pouring in overwhelmingly, as if trying to engulf him and the "net floats" floating on the water.

Pulling down. At this moment, he felt very clearly that the god 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 should he do with 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 dies now, all the family's livelihood will be cut off.

How can the two of them survive...

Just when all the sparks of hope in "Old Swordfish" were gradually extinguished, he had given up, and his mind could not help but think so wildly. Under the high rock wall of "Xinghuo Bay", a magical spark suddenly flashed out

.

No, it's not a spark! It's a bonfire burning on the shore!

And at the same time, under the gradually lonely afterglow in 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" expectations for "life".

Needless to say, someone came to save him!

So the "Old Swordfish" began to fight against the waves again, trying to stay afloat and not sink.

He knew that apart from 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 have followed him here and have been pestering him. He has never given them a good look, but he never expected that they would be the ones to save him now!

Damn it, what 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, the always strong big hand had already grabbed him. And another black figure, without stopping, swam sideways and pounced on the loaded bag that had been taken away by the waves.

The "net drifter" of sea cucumbers.

"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 a mouthful of salty sea water.

.

But what is surprising is that after a while, the man actually successfully dragged the "net float" back and swam back. It looked like a gunboat, using his body to draw a long wave path, which is enough to prove his physical strength.

Far beyond ordinary people. No worse than when he was in his prime.

And while he couldn't help but burst into tears, the three of them finally gathered together and swam together towards the half-dark shore...
