fisherman legend

Chapter 39 There is still help!

Considering that there are many rescued crew members, Zhuang Haiyang did not cook, but chose to cook noodles and steamed buns for everyone as the staple food, and also fried some side dishes.The rescued crew members also expressed their thanks for such hospitality.

When it was time to eat, some crew members also curiously asked why Zhuang Haiyang lived on Nanshan Island.Many crew members who grew up locally know that Nanshan Island was evacuated ten years ago, and there is no one living on the island.

Faced with such inquiries, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said: "A few years ago I was working in Nanling, and then I felt angry that I didn't make much money, so I wanted to go back to my hometown to fish. Anyway, the income is similar to that of working. It didn't take long to move back!"

"Then your family agrees?"

To the surprise of the crew, Zhuang Haiyang also said calmly: "I have a sister who settled down in the town. My parents never came back after going to sea seven years ago, so I just want to go back to my hometown. It's my home!"

"Ah! Brother Zhuang, I'm sorry, I really don't know this!"

"It's okay! In our line of business, every time we go to sea is a gamble. After so many years, I'm used to it."

No one expected that Zhuang Haiyang's parents were killed at sea.But if you think about it carefully, this kind of situation is not uncommon in the fishing villages of Haijun Town, and even among the fishermen living on other islands.

Every time they go to sea is a gamble and an adventure. Fortunately, they were rescued by Zhuang Haiyang.Unfortunately, Zhuang Haiyang's parents did not have such luck.For a while, everyone felt a little embarrassed.

On the contrary, Zhuang Haiyang smiled and said: "It's okay, don't worry about it. Eat the noodles while they are still hot, and I will cook them if they are not enough!"

"Enough! Enough! Thank you so much for today!"

"They're all from the same town. What's the point of Xie Xie coming and going. I really want to thank you. Thank you for your luck!"

If the fishing boat lost its power but did not burn the cabin, Zhuang Haiyang probably would not have known that the boat was in distress.All in all, these crew members can save their lives, although they need to thank Zhuang Haiyang, but they also need to thank the god of luck for the blessing.

Even Zhuang Haiyang said with a smile: "Tomorrow, you all go to the Haiwang Temple at the head of the village to burn incense sticks, and thank the Sea Dragon King! If I didn't grow vegetables there, and I just saw the smoke rising from the sea, I guess there will be a lot of smoke. I really didn't know what happened to you!"

"It should be! It should be! To save a life, I really need to thank Sea Dragon King!"

Compared with Nanling and Fuling, going out to sea is more willing to worship Mazu, but the fishermen on Nanzhou Island believe in the Sea Dragon King more.Haiwang Temple like Nanshan Island is not big, but every fishing village has it.

Every time someone from the village goes out to sea, the family members of the crew will go to the Haiwang Temple or the Dragon King Temple to burn incense and pray for blessings.It is a pity that burning incense and praying for blessings is not useful every time.But for those who survived the catastrophe, they are more willing to contribute a pious belief.

Seventeen people live in five rooms, although it seems a bit crowded.But for the crew who often sleep on board, most of them are used to hard times.Even with an air mattress on the bed, a room for four people just fits.

When resting at night, looking at Zhou Yang who asked himself to borrow a cigarette, knowing that the other party must not be in the mood to sleep tonight, Zhuang Haiyang still said: "Uncle Zhou, the incident has already happened, so don't be too sad, maybe the boat can be found. "

"It's okay! I'm very lucky to have this life back. Alas, it's all my fault for being too impatient!"

"No one wants this kind of thing to happen, but when it happens, people always look forward. If the wind and waves are calm tomorrow, I will take you to look nearby. The fishing boat should not drift far in one night, as long as it does not sink, There is still help!"

"Thank you! I bought this boat with a loan. I originally wanted to go to the high seas to cast a few more nets. Who knows, the engine of the fishing boat had a problem. The most unfortunate thing is that the child Hongjie even gave the cabin to him. Burnt! Alas!"

Hearing this, Zhuang Haiyang smiled and said, "Uncle Zhou, you should actually be lucky to have brought Hongjie aboard. If he hadn't accidentally cooked and burned the cabin, you probably would still be floating on the sea!"

"Hearing what you said, it seems to be the same!"

Zhou Yang, who was stunned and smiled wryly, also knew that Zhuang Haiyang was more to comfort him.Although he must have lost a lot this time, fortunately, the crew was safe.If not, his life might be completely over.

Zhou Yang, who was distressed by the fishing boat accident, chatted with Zhuang Haiyang, and his mood improved a little, but in the end he sighed: "Fishing is such a job, it seems that I can't do it! If I get the boat back, I will sell it at a loss." Lose!"

People like Zhou Yang who had accidents and killed people who didn't want to be fishermen anymore, in fact, there are quite a few in the town.Perhaps this is also the reason why the boss of the ship charges high prices every time he goes to sea, but he still cannot recruit experienced crew.

It used to be said that hunters entering the mountains are dangerous, but who knows that fishermen who go fishing in the sea are more dangerous?
After chatting with Zhou Yang until midnight, under Zhuang Haiyang's persuasion, Zhou Yang went back to his room to rest.On the other hand, Zhuang Haiyang, after everyone was asleep, left the old house and went to the reef area of ​​the back mountain to continue meditating.

The heavy rain that had been falling before returning to the island had completely stopped at this time.Being above the sea, rain seems to depend entirely on the mood of God.Especially at night, the weather conditions are more complex and changeable, and small fishing boats dare not spend the night at sea.

After practicing for several hours, Zhuang Haiyang returned to his room where he rested alone.The crew members sleeping in other rooms had no idea that Zhuang Haiyang had been out.At dawn, the other crew members woke up, and Zhuang Haiyang also started preparing breakfast.

After breakfast, the tug boat contacted by Zhou Yang arrived very early.Through the positioning signal provided by the maritime department, it was confirmed that Zhou Yang's fishing boat had not sunk, but drifted to the sea a little far away from Nanshan Island.

The ship is sunk, at least there is a possibility of repair.For the rescued crew members, it was a long sigh of relief to hear the news.Even though the clothes were not dry, everyone still put on the clothes that had been hanging out overnight, and boarded the boat to leave.

When boarding the boat, Zhou Yang also said sincerely: "Xiaozhuang, I will come to the door to thank you after I settle the matter!"

"Uncle Zhou, there's really no need to be so polite. Anyone who encounters this kind of thing will help, no need!"

"What? Look down on me? That's it!"

Without giving Zhuang Haiyang a chance to refuse, Zhou Yang boarded the invited tugboat with the same grateful Zhou Hongjie.Other crew members also said that when Zhuang Haiyang goes to town next time, he will definitely invite Zhuang Haiyang to his house for dinner.

Zhuang Haiyang didn't feel any pride in sending these rescued crew members away.For sailors or fishermen who often go to sea, once they encounter such a situation at sea, they will help as long as they can.

This is also a kind of conscience and moral concept to be followed by people who go to sea or fishermen!
If you refuse to save yourself today, who can guarantee that nothing will happen to you?When you have an accident, others will not save you, so what will happen to you?
Just returning to the old house, seeing the towels and blankets that the crew left and took off, Zhuang Haiyang couldn’t help but smiled wryly and said: “It seems inevitable, another big cleaning is going to be done. Fortunately, the weather is fine, just wash and dry it. "

As for saving people, the crew didn't give money, and Zhuang Haiyang didn't really care much.It can also be seen from the condition of these crew members who were rescued on board that they did not bring any money with them.When many crew members jumped ship, their mobile phones were flooded.

Compared with a human life, Zhuang Haiyang feels that money is really unimportant.It took some effort to save these crew members.But for the current Zhuang Haiyang, he feels that this is also a manifestation of testing his ability after self-cultivation.

Through this rescue, Zhuang Haiyang truly realized that the greater his ability, the greater his responsibility may be in the future!
