Chapter 252 Landing
"Hahaha, you got it wrong!"
On the fishing boat, Bifang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry at the misunderstanding between the two brothers. Someone actually mistook him for a prankster.
Charles and Eric were speechless. They had just searched the Discovery Channel, and when they saw themselves and their brother appear on the channel, they had to believe that Bifang had actually survived on the sea for twenty days relying only on a life raft!
There was not even any supplies on the life raft, and even the safety rope had been cut, leaving only a short fixed end.
Unbelievable!
It's not like they haven't seen survivors of a shipwreck before. There are quite a few fishing boats that get into accidents every year. Let alone twenty days, even just two days, under the tremendous psychological pressure, people will become haggard.
Not to mention that they had no supplies at all and survived for twenty days. They had only seen such stories in movies and had never even heard of them in real life.
[Hahaha, these two are so funny. I actually thought I was playing a prank on them.]
[Normal. When I met a person who survived at sea for 20 days with only a life raft and was still alive and well, and even caught a boatload of fish, I still thought it was a prank.]
[Nothing to say, just one word, Fang Shen is awesome! ]
Eric's eyes were full of admiration: "That's amazing! This is the first time I've seen such an amazing star!"
Charles also nodded, expressing his admiration for Bifang's feat of surviving alone on a raft for twenty days at sea, and immediately wanted to take a photo with him.
"How far is it from here to the shore?"
After taking the photo, Bifang looked at the compass and asked.
"It's less than 40 kilometers from the shore, and it will only take a few hours to get there. But if we drive to the port, the route will be longer, and we will probably have to wait until tomorrow to take you back."
Charles thought Bifang wanted to take their boat back, so he explained the situation truthfully. He said that it was worth catching one less fish to be able to encounter such a feat.
"No."
Bifang shook his head. He understood what the other party meant. However, since the distance was not far, it would be better to take the raft directly to the shore. It might be faster than taking a boat.
The two brothers were stunned, but when they thought about the fact that the other party was a talented person who could survive alone at sea for twenty days, he must have his own pursuit of achievements, so they didn't try to persuade him anymore.
"Then stay on the boat and have lunch before leaving."
Eric, who had tied the raft to the railing, came over and greeted Bifang.
Bifang readily agreed and couldn't help smacking his lips. After living on the sea for twenty days, he really missed the delicious food of human society. Even if what they took out were only canned food, they were still very delicious.
Bifang also took out the freshest European eel and the remaining half of an Atlantic and shared them together.
"This salmon is two days old. It may not be very fresh."
"How is that possible? You don't know how scarce wild salmon are right now. Let alone two days, even if you let it out for a week, people will be scrambling to get it! We've been out to sea for three days and we haven't caught any big fish!"
Eric said excitedly that he didn't expect that he could eat wild salmon and European eels, which are top quality and extremely expensive.
Put the canned thick sauce in the pot and stew it with the eel. The wonderful aroma will waft out. Paired with the bread to absorb the juice, it is really worth the trip.
The three of them sat around the dining table and enjoyed the meal, occasionally listening to Bifang's interesting stories. In particular, when two of them heard that Bifang had just seen a blue whale not long ago, their eyes lit up.
"Blue whale? You really saw a blue whale."
"Yes, my raft is not going very fast. It is probably about 30 degrees north by west and 50 kilometers away. If you are lucky, you may be able to see it."
Charles and Eric looked at each other and immediately decided to move in the direction pointed by Bifang, not only because they wanted to see the sea elves, but also because where whales are usually located there are many plankton, krill and other animals, which in turn results in many other fish that feed on these things, so a trip there would definitely be a great harvest.
After dinner, Bi Fang said goodbye to the two of them, pulled up the big sail and headed towards the mainland. Charles and Eric also hurried towards the sea area pointed out by Bi Fang.
Bifang faces the sea breeze, feeling the air of freedom, and has a sense of beauty as if escaping into the world and being free and unfettered.
Less than 40 kilometers, if the wind is strong enough, he might be able to find the coastline today.
Sure enough, in the evening, a vague outline appeared in everyone's sight. As the distance shortened, the audience finally saw clearly that it was a coastline similar to a rock wall, full of cliffs and impossible to climb up.
No wonder there is no port!
[How do I get up here? ]
[Fuck, can this go up? It has to be at least 20 meters, right?]
[It’s good enough to find the coastline. If you look along the coastline, you will always find a place to go ashore.]
Bifang nodded and said, "That's right. If we look along the shoreline, we will always find a place to go up. At worst, we can just climb up."
By the time we got close to the rock wall, it was already night.
The sky and the earth were pitch black with only the pale moonlight. The tide broke into black splashes of water under the black cliff. A young man was touching the sky-high rock wall, moving bit by bit, trying to find an open space.
The monotonous sound of the tide creates a different kind of silence.
It wouldn't be difficult if they just wanted to climb up, but Bifang was reluctant to give up his boatload of harvest.
In the live broadcast room, some viewers did not choose to watch the footage in night vision mode, but instead viewed the footage under normal light.
It happened that the clouds had broken and the moon had risen, the sea was sparkling, and the black high cliffs pierced straight into the sea, like a city that fell from the sky to avoid the sea and divide the land and sea into two absolutely separate parts.
At the foot of the huge cliff, the tiny young man was moving forward cautiously, holding on to the black rock wall. Occasionally, the moonlight shone down, illuminating his half-bright and half-dark face.
[It feels so artistic, the moonlight is absolutely amazing! ]
【Nature is the best lighting designer】
【Fang is still handsome! 】
"Everyone must be careful when they are at the bottom of the cliff, because strong winds are likely to blow rocks off the cliff. A height of more than ten or twenty meters is enough to cause fatal damage to humans."
"So when we hear the sound of falling rocks, we must immediately get as close to the cliff as possible, as close as possible, and then squat down with our hands over our heads. This way we can avoid the rolling rocks to the greatest extent, or reduce the damage caused by the rolling rocks to you, so as not to be killed in one blow."
While explaining, Bifang kept his attention on the rock wall. He did not dare to be careless, especially in the pitch dark.
Finally, after wandering in the dark for more than three hours, Bifang saw a gravel beach shining in the moonlight!
Bifang paddled towards the gravel beach, always being careful of the reefs in the sea.
The more serious the situation, the less anxious he had to be. He had to be careful of the tides. Once the tide changed direction, it would drag the raft into the sea.
The raft drifted slower and slower until it became muddy and seemed to have sunk into something. Bifang was overjoyed. He wrapped all his gains in the canvas and excitedly came to one end of the raft.
The black tide with white splashes hit the gravel beach. Occasionally, a small crab with a reflective shell crawled across the gravel beach, but was knocked to and fro .
The gravel beach is dotted with these little things reflecting light.
Click.
A pair of deep footprints left in the mud.
Day 20 of ocean survival.
Go ashore.
