Follow the army to the island, the rebellious male protagonist was led by me to counterattack

Chapter 24 Fishing
Shi Xia, dressed in black with her pigtails tied up high, looked smart and fresh. She arrived at the fishing boat at a fast pace.

Cao Ping, Li Daniu, Chen Si, Chen Wu and others were all there.

After she said hello to everyone, she got on the boat and the fishing boat slowly sailed away.

Shi Xia walked around the boat to familiarize himself with the equipment on the fishing boat.

To be honest, it's very backward.

A semi-automatic winch machine, because sometimes it needs to be pushed by manpower.

A half-old fishing net, a large fish hold, a small fish hold, that's basically it.

Shi Xia walked onto the deck and stood at the bow.

The bow of the ship split the calm sea surface, stirring up layers of waves.

Shi Xia's supernatural power floated along the sea water, detecting bit by bit.

Ocean currents and schools of fish are the compasses of the sea.

As the base commander of a seaside base, Shi Xia is familiar with everything in the sea.

Cao Ping and others stood behind Shi Xia, but no one spoke.

Shi Xia's back gave them the illusion that she was very "smart" and that they would be "beaten" if they spoke nonsense.

The Chen brothers: It’s not an illusion, it’s a lesson learned from blood and tears.

Everyone looked at Shi Xia, who was clearly on board for the first time. She was standing at the bow, and just her back made them feel the urge to expand their territory.

"Southeast thirty-five degrees."

Shi Xia raised his hand and pointed in a direction, and Cao Ping, who was at the helm himself, turned the steering wheel.

The fishing boat tilted slightly and changed direction.

"Why did you change direction?"

Several fishermen at the back of the fishing boat came forward and exchanged glances with Li Daniu and the others.

"Shi Xia thinks that direction is good. Anyway, we don't know, so we just rely on luck."

After Chen Si explained, Li Daniu said affirmatively: "Listen to Shi Xia, she is amazing."

The stubborn Li Daniu put his hands on his hips and nodded, looking like he firmly believed in Shi Xia.

The people on the boat didn't want to argue with the stubborn Li Daniu.

As for Shi Xia, they were grateful, but could anyone really be that lucky?

They were hesitant.

But even if I had doubts, I didn't want to quarrel on the boat. It would be a bad sign.

"J!"

When Shi Xia said "let the net go", Li Daniu reacted the fastest.

The people around were a little slow to react, but they all helped.

Shi Xia looked back and was satisfied.

The huge fishing net was slowly lowered into the sea, the winch made a clattering sound, and the silver mesh gleamed in the sunlight, disappearing on the blue sea level.

As the net sinks with the weight, the boat pulls the net forward, allowing the net to spread out in an arc shape as much as possible under the sea water.

The spread fishing net is like an airtight hand, letting passing marine creatures fall into the net.

Shi Xia was still standing at the bow of the boat.

At this moment, everyone was waiting, waiting for the leader's order.

Judgment, timing and luck are all essential for closing the net.

After dragging for a while, Shi Xia shouted "Close the net" and everyone started moving again.

This time, no one was left behind.

Li Daniu was guarding the winch, while the Chen brothers and several fishermen were waiting at the stern of the boat with hooks in their hands, ready to pull the net onto the boat at any time.

Cao Ping was at the helm, but his eyes were fixed on the place where the net was being collected.

Every time you go fishing, it's a gamble.

Such gains are exciting and even more addictive.

The fishing net rose up slowly, little by little.

“It feels so heavy!”

"It must be available."

Everyone said nice things just to get a good omen.

"Come up!"

“Hurry up!”

“Pull the net!”

There was no time for nonsense. The fisherman who was pulling the net roared, hooked the hook in his hand on the fishing net, and pulled it up with all his might.

The winch seemed to have reached its limit and was no longer turning.

Li Daniu held the capstan stick tightly with his shoulders, and a cry of "Ah" came out from between his teeth.

"I'll do it! You go pull the net." Shi Xia rushed over, grasped the pushing stick with both hands, and pulled it upward with force.

Li Daniu only felt his shoulders lighten, and the creaking sound of rotation sounded again. The winch started to turn again, pulling the fishing net.

Li Daniu nodded, ran to the back and pulled the fishing net.

The fishing net finally floated to the surface, shining silver.

The fish jumped in the net like a flowing galaxy.

"Damn it! That's enough!"

"Harder!"

When everyone on the boat saw the fish caught in the fishing net, they were excited. With cheers, the fishing net was finally pulled up.

The deck of the ship was soon piled with fish, and the air was filled with the salty smell of sea water and fish.

Smiles shone on every dark face.

Captain Cao Ping stretched his head to look, his mouth grinning to the corners of his eyes, and shouted loudly: "Hurry up and sort it."

"Yes, yes, get to work quickly!"

"I haven't seen so many fish in years."

"Shi Xia, you're so awesome!"

The fishermen cheered at Shi Xia. Shi Xia held the capstan with one hand and put the other hand behind his back, pretending to be experienced and not letting his hand hurt in vain.

"A piece of cake!"

The fishermen laughed heartily, conquered by Shi Xia's powerful strength.

Fishermen began to sort the fish, putting the same types together and separating them by size.

The fishing nets they used today had large meshes, so there were no fish that were too small.

Because of this, the fishermen knew how powerful this net was, and their admiration for Shi Xia grew deeper as they sorted the fish.

Shi Xia fixed the winch, used his supernatural power to move his wrist, and walked calmly towards the bow.

After the captain Cao Ping came over, Cao Ping praised him generously: "Amazing!"

Shi Xia said modestly: "Without everyone's cooperation, I can't do it."

Cao Ping laughed heartily and said generously, "If it were always like this, we would all cooperate! Ah ah, cooperate!"

Shi Xia also smiled brightly and raised her eyebrows confidently.

"okay."

Shi Xia responded, pointed the direction to Cao Ping, and the boat returned.

The fishing boat is not big, so this one net is enough for today.

Shi Xia was still standing at the bow, looking through an old telescope.

The sounds of the waves, the wind, and the fishermen cheering as they worked were all interwoven together.

The ship was moving smoothly and they returned quickly today.

After walking for more than ten minutes, Shi Xia suddenly leaned forward.

Cao Ping noticed it immediately and asked, "What's wrong?"

"There's someone in front..."

"Someone?"

Cao Ping became anxious.

There is a tacit understanding among people who go out to sea, that is, if they see someone in the sea, they must rescue them.

You are saving others now, but maybe one day you will be the one being saved.

The boat headed in the direction Shi Xia mentioned.

What was originally just a blurry dot became clearer as the ship approached, and sounds were also heard.

"Help!"

"here!"

At the bow, Shi Xia picked up the red flag next to the mast and waved it at the people in the sea.

"See? Don't struggle. Save your energy."

After Shi Xia shouted several times, the boat stopped about ten meters away from the man.

Shi Xia looked carefully and saw that it was... a soldier.

"Captain Cao, let Li Daniu go down. He's very strong."

Shi Xia called out, and Cao Ping agreed. Although Shi Xia was very strong, it was not good for a woman to save a man.

Cao Ping called Li Daniu, and Shi Xia threw a homemade raft down.

With a splash, Li Daniu grabbed the raft and swam towards the man. Soon, both of them were pulled up by the fishermen.

The soldier who was pulled up saluted and said anxiously:
"Thank you. I'm a soldier from Haiming Island. Please help us. We still have people in the sea!"
