1983Fishing and Farming between Mountains and Seas

Chapter 301: Saving the Man Who Fell into the Sea

"It seems to be a sound coming from the west?" Liang's father was also recalling the loud noise just now and identifying the direction.

As they looked out, the little beast on the boat had instantly become excited, and its reaction was even stronger than theirs.

"Woof! Woof!" Duobao was frightened by the sudden loud noise and jumped up, then he started shouting at the top of his voice.

When it calls, it also faces the west direction.

The sea lion didn't yell, but kept shrinking into the corner, growling in his throat and shaking his fur, appearing to be much more frightened than Duobao.

"Someone is frying fish in the west direction!" Liang's father concluded.

In fact, he didn't need to say anything, everyone reacted quickly after the first few seconds of shock.

The most likely reason for this sound suddenly coming from the empty sea is that someone is frying fish.

"This time the sound came directly here, which means it's not far from our area!" Liang Ziqiang continued.

"Let's go and have a look!"

Anyway, the saury had been caught almost completely. Without much discussion, several people adjusted their course and headed towards the direction where the sound came from.

As long as you don't get too close, you can still get a glimpse from a distance to see which village is frying fish.

If the other party has already sailed away, that's also good, you can grab the bargain while it's still new.

Judging from the previous two experiences, this fish bomber has a clear goal. He only wants the valuable grouper, and he won't even catch the rest of the common fish like the blacktail winterfish.

This time, if we rush over right after the fish is fried, we will definitely be able to catch fresher floating fish than the previous two times.

Some reefs were not too high above the water, so they could not be seen from a distance. Liang Ziqiang and his crew sailed for a while, but before they could see the reefs clearly, they saw the wooden boat parked on the sea.

Surprisingly, there were not one, but two boats.

At the same time, there was a distinct smell of gunpowder in the sea breeze, and there were already fish with their bellies turned upside down on the water, gradually drifting away from that side.

At first, Liang Ziqiang and his friends thought that the two boats were fishing boats, but after a closer look, they realized that the two boats were fishing boats.

No, this wooden boat looks familiar! Isn't this the boat that Mr. Xie from the Driftwood Island Oyster Farm usually drives?
The sea breeze carried the voices of the people on the boat and blew them into my ears, but it was not Lao Xie's voice:
"Young man, listen to my advice. It's fine to live by the sea, but the way you do it is not right! You made a lot of money, but do you know how big the scope of the damage is? If you live by the sea, will other fishermen have food to eat? Will your descendants have food to eat in the future? Just dig slowly, and don't use explosives next time..."

Two fierce voices came from another boat:
"Where did you get this four-eyed dog? Get out of my way!"

"I'm not a fisherman, what do I want to eat from the sea? Come on, I'll kill you, you son of a bitch!"

Liang's father and Liang Ziqiang were all stunned and looked at each other.

Unexpectedly, one of the two boats was used for frying fish, while the other one came over to dissuade them.

As the angle of the boat changed, Liang Ziqiang gradually saw the people on the two boats.

They were far away, but at least I could tell they were three strangers.

The two men on the frying boat were in their twenties, and their attire certainly didn’t look like the people from the nearby fishing villages.

The dissuader on the other boat seemed out of tune with all the fishermen, and even out of tune with the entire ocean. The fact that he appeared on the sea in a boat was itself a bit strange.

He is a middle-aged man, probably in his forties, a little younger than Liang's father, but his face is very fair and clean, completely different from Liang's father.

What’s even more special is that the middle-aged man is wearing metal-framed glasses. Compared with the village teacher Lu Guangcai, he looks more like a cultured person.

Liang Ziqiang was also a little surprised. It was obviously Lao Xie's boat, so why was Lao Xie not there, but this middle-aged man with glasses was on the boat?

The two fish bombers also looked up and saw Liang Ziqiang and his four fishing boats approaching from afar, but they did not hesitate and continued to curse:
"Why are you meddling in other people's business? Did I blow up your house or something? Get as far away from home as possible and I'll punish you!" As he spoke, he seemed to lift something out of the water and put it on the boat.

The middle-aged man with glasses was scolded in a series of insults and was obviously very unhappy. His voice became louder:
"Why didn't the bomb hit my house? Last time you guys bombed my oyster farm. I ran into you today, but I didn't bother with you about that! I tried to persuade you with some kind words, but since you wouldn't listen, I have to settle the matter with you about the losses of the oyster farm!"

The middle-aged man with glasses moved his boat a little closer.

"Fuck you! Four-eyed dog, you came here to get yourself killed!"

The fishing boat completely ignored the four boats that Liang Ziqiang and his crew were slowly approaching, and suddenly accelerated, ramming hard into the small wooden boat of the middle-aged man with glasses!
The fishing boat was much bigger, and the boat of the middle-aged man with glasses was smaller. The result of the collision was predictable.

"What are you doing? Stop it!" Liang's father, Liang Ziqiang and others all screamed in shock, but they were unable to stop the fishing boat from crashing into the small wooden boat, making a slightly dull bang!
The middle-aged man with glasses obviously didn't expect that the other party would really dare to bump into him. Under the huge impact, his whole body was unstable and shook a few times.

Just when he was about to steady himself, he finally leaned backwards and eventually fell off the boat and into the sea!
The fish bomber acted as if he didn't see anything. Before Liang Ziqiang and his four boats could surround him, he accelerated again and fled into the distance like a flash.

Liang Ziqiang's boat was the largest and its speed was relatively fast. Seeing this, he immediately accelerated the speed of the boat.

Although it is hard to say whether someone can be rescued if they fall into the sea, Liang Ziqiang still has to give it a try.

Fortunately, it was getting closer and closer, and it would soon jump forward.

At a glance, I saw the splashing water and a figure swimming hard in the water with his arms waving.

Seeing this scene, Liang Ziqiang felt a little relieved.

When you fall into the ocean, the most frightening thing is that you will sink immediately or be swept away by the ocean currents. In that case, there will be basically no chance of rescue.

It can still swim on the water surface, so there is still hope as long as it is rescued in time.

Of course, even if there is hope, usually no one is willing to jump into the water to rescue the drowning person. After all, this is the sea, and the consequence of jumping into the water to rescue is likely to be to drown yourself.

Liang Ziqiang had no such plan at the moment, but he pulled the dog leash decisively.

Duobao had actually been watching what was happening, and now he was standing at the side of the ship, as if he was ready to go.

"Duobao, hurry up, go down and help him!"

Following Liang Ziqiang's call, Duobao jumped into the water and swam quickly towards the middle-aged man who fell into the water.

There were several large basins stacked on top of each other on the boat. Almost at the same time, Liang Ziqiang picked up a large basin and threw it towards the middle-aged man like he usually threw a net.

After all, he was an experienced net caster and his throw was quite accurate, so the big basin landed right in front of the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man shouted something and rushed to the basin of water and picked up the baby.

Then, Duobao swam closer to him.

The middle-aged man understood immediately. He continued to hold the basin with one hand and held the long dog leash tied to Duobao with the other hand.

"Very good, just like that, come over here slowly!" Liang Ziqiang shouted at the side of the boat.

He and Zhu Tianpeng worked together to grab the dog leash, which was as thick as a cable, and pulled it back little by little.

Duobao was swimming beside the basin, and the middle-aged man was also paddling with the basin in his arms, which looked much easier than swimming hard in front.

The rope gradually pulled him and Duobao closer to the Lianwen boat.

"Be careful, both of you, be careful with yourselves!"

Liang's father, Lin Baixian and others were watching from other boats. They couldn't jump onto his boat for the time being, and at the same time they were worried that the two of them would be pulled into the water by the middle-aged man's weight, so they all stood on the boat and shouted anxiously, reminding Liang Ziqiang and Zhu Tianpeng.
