Father's Land Mother's River

Chapter 101 Calling
Yue Xuelian took out bread, soda and canned beer from her bag, and put them aside.The two of them faced the sea, enjoying the cool sea breeze, bathing in the warm sunshine, enjoying a feast of fresh seafood like children.

Liu Xiaonan scooped out a piece of fresh and tender abalone meat with a knife, handed it to Yue Xuelian and said, "I heard people say that abalone meat is good for your skin. Whether it's true or not, eat more."

Yue Xuelian took small bites of the delicious abalone meat, looked at the vast and calm sea and said, "Brother, this is the first time I have enjoyed such a peaceful, beautiful and happy time. How did you find this place?"

Liu Xiaonan ate oysters and beer, with a depressed expression: "Two years ago, the textile factory organized workers to spend their holidays here."

During a vacation, you can remember a peasant couple who have never met before. Did something more unforgettable happen?Yue Xuelian boldly guessed: "When I came here, senior brother stood for a long time in the pine forest on the cliff with a serious look on his face. Could it be that he remembered the past?"

Liu Xiaonan looked up at the cliff: "My first love, a female worker in a textile factory, gave me my first kiss in that pine forest. I was also kissed by a girl for the first time there."

Yue Xuelian asked: "I remember senior brother said, I have loved you so much, I dare not forget it. Senior brother will never forget Gu Yu, right?"

Liu Xiaonan avoided Yue Xuelian's gaze: "Twice unforgettable love filled my heart to the brim. I'm a layman, and I don't have a heart wider than the ocean or the sky. I don't know if I can hold more emotions. "

"Brother's new novel, is it written for love?"

"In addition to love, I am more concerned about fate."

"It's also a blessing to be a character in my brother's novel."

"Because there are shortcomings in real life, I will use words to make up for emotions."

A hearty picnic with a lingering aftertaste.

The sea was as calm as before, Liu Xiaonan took Yue Xuelian to dive into the sea.

The children in the countryside don't have anyone to teach them how to swim. They all learn by themselves, starting with diving.Pinch the nostrils with your fingers, close your eyes, take a deep breath and sink into the water, walk a few steps under the water, practice the courage to learn to breathe with your mouth, and finally practice swimming.

Liu Xiaonan first tested Yue Xuelian's lung capacity on land, and asked her to hold her breath to see how long she could last. 50 seconds, not too bad, I said a few words of encouragement and the main points of diving.

Walking to the waist-deep sea, he put on the diving goggles for her, held her hand face to face, pulled her to squat down slowly, and sank into the sea at the same time.

With the sea water above her head, Yue Xuelian tightly held Liu Xiaonan's hand, puffed her cheeks and opened her eyes wide. Through the diving goggles, she nervously stared at Liu Xiaonan who was close at hand.

Liu Xiaonan comforted her with a smile and eyes, silently counted the seconds in her heart, counted to 45, and took her hands to stand up slowly.

With her head out of the water, Yue Xuelian panted heavily, lifted the diving goggles to her forehead, wiped the sea water on her face and said, "I saw a monster with big eyes on the opposite side, it was quite scary."

Liu Xiaonan smiled and said, "I saw a pair of terrified little eyes on the opposite side, like an octopus hiding in the crevice of a rock."

Yue Xuelian splashed water on Liu Xiaonan's face with both hands, her cheerful laughter rippling on the surface of the sea.

After practicing several times, Yue Xuelian gradually relaxed, and even dared to dive into the water by herself, but she still had to hold Liu Xiaonan's hand.

Liu Xiaonan took Yue Xuelian to the chest-deep sea, found a reef, pulled her into the water, let her touch the seaweed and shells on the reef, observe small fish, shrimps and crabs, and feel the kindness, broadness and richness of the sea .

At a certain depth, the buoyancy of sea water will pull the human body upward.Yue Xuelian's legs were unsteady, and her body naturally floated, parallel to the bottom of the sea.

Liu Xiaonan took her hand and dived to help her maintain her balance, and kept counting the seconds in her heart to ensure that she had enough breath to surface.

The whole afternoon, the two of them have been soaking in the sea.After repeated practice, although Yue Xuelian hadn't learned how to swim, her legs were able to pat the water in a natural and harmonious way, and she followed Liu Xiaonan to swim.She is obsessed with diving and the underwater world, and hopes that her senior brother can teach her to swim.

Liu Xiaonan is also willing to spend a summer vacation to turn two people into two fish.

When returning to the city in the evening, Liu Xiaonan handed over the remaining seafood to Yue Xuelian.Yue Xuelian invited him to her home, and she rewarded him with a feast of seafood.

Liu Xiaonan declined, said she was tired after playing all day, so she had a good rest, and she would have a chance to taste her cooking skills in the future.Besides, I have to take a shower to wash off the salt and alkali all over my body.

Yue Xuelian understood Liu Xiaonan's intentions, so she didn't force her anymore.

After resting for one night, the two of them drove to Longwangtang again.It was sunny and windless when we set off, but the weather changed suddenly when we arrived at the beach.

The strong southwest wind roared across the sea, shaking the cliffs and pine forests, and the pine waves burst like tigers roaring in the mountains.The huge waves on the sea are surging, one wave after another, hitting the reef, rushing towards the coast ferociously, rubbing the pebbles on the coast, making a clattering sound.

The cliff trembled and trembled under the impact of the waves.The small island not far away in the sea, surrounded by huge waves on three sides, wailed helplessly.

Liu Xiaonan and Yue Xuelian stood side by side on the cliff, staring at the rows of huge green waves on the sea and the piles of white foam on the coast in a daze.The sea breeze messed up her hair, flipped her dress, and she was almost unable to stand still.

The sky is still clear, but the sea has changed into a hideous and terrifying face. How can you dive into the sea and learn to swim in such harsh sea conditions?
Yue Xuelian proposed to go back first, and wait for the weather to be calm and the sea to be calm before diving into the sea.Liu Xiaonan refused to return empty-handed. It was only after the wind and waves that she saw her real skills that she insisted on leading Yue Xuelian down the cliff.

Under the cliff, the sea breeze is still strong, blowing pieces of foam generated by the waves, rolling on the pebbles, and finally breaking and evaporating into water vapor.The waves stand high and straight, crashing and beating against the shore, and there are endless roars.

Liu Xiaonan asked Yue Xuelian to hide in that groove to avoid the wind. It was too dangerous to take her into the sea in such a big storm.He himself is going to try his luck in the sea, as long as the sea water is not too turbid, he can still gain something.

Yue Xuelian tried to prevent Liu Xiaonan from taking risks, Liu Xiaonan said: "If you see a little storm and shrink back, is that still the dragon in the sea in your eyes?"

Yue Xuelian took Liu Xiaonan's arm: "Didn't you say that there is a small reservoir at the end of the bay, we can go there and have a look, and visit the couple named Sha by the way."

Liu Xiaonan comforted Yue Xuelian: "Whether it's in the river or the sea, I've seen too many storms and waves, so don't worry."

After Yue Xuelian was settled, Liu Xiaonan walked into the sea facing the waves.It is not necessary to catch seafood, nor is it necessary to be brave in front of women, but fighting the waves will bring a special feeling to people.

Have a brave heart, overcome yourself to conquer the waves, dance and swim on the top of the waves, and follow the ups and downs of the waves, just like driving the sea, the feeling is exciting.

Today's waves are swells, the surface of the water and the bottom of the water are churning and surging, and the waves are smashing down.The surging tide dragged his legs, and every step was very difficult.

Shallow water areas can only walk but not swim, and some reefs are just below the surface of the sea, and layers of waves cover the position and height of the reefs.If you swim to the reef by mistake, the oyster shells on the reef will gently scratch your belly.

Her two feet couldn't reach the bottom of the sea, and her body naturally floated up, so Liu Xiaonan waved her arms against the waves and swam towards the direction in her memory, looking for the deep trench.

Perhaps the trench is calm and the sea water is not too turbid.The waves gently supported his body, lifting him to the top of the waves for a while, and pulling him down the valley for a while, and he jumped and shuttled between the crests and valleys with ease.

He found the trench and dived headlong, but his body was hanging in the surface of the sea water, and he didn't dare to dive any further.

The slippery, soft, thick, long, dense forest-like kelp in the trench, like a grove in a strong wind, swayed violently with the surging tide, like a group of demons dancing wildly.If you dive down hastily, once you are entangled by kelp, it will not be so easy to get out, and your life may be in danger.

Fortunately, on the side of the trench facing away from the waves, the kelp is scarce and is not greatly affected by the tide, so you can barely see everything on the bottom of the sea.He found some conches, sea urchins and oysters in the crevices of the reef. Don't count on sea cucumbers and abalones, but the harvest is also very impressive.

He looked up at the coast and saw Yue Xuelian walking out of the groove under the cliff, standing on the shore looking into the sea, and decided to go ashore immediately.

She can't worry too much, and today's sea conditions don't allow him to soak in seawater for a long time.Although it was a hot summer, the surging tide brought a chill from the depths of the sea. The tide at the bottom was icy cold, and his legs were somewhat numb.

He couldn't help thinking of Li Hongxia.A weak woman, soaked in the icy sea for twelve hours, what kind of perseverance and desire to survive must have supported her until dawn and the tide receded.

Liu Xiaonan followed the waves to swim to the shore, and at a distance of more than [-] meters from the shore, his hands touched a reef.He stood up and stepped on the bottom of the sea with both feet. The sea water just reached his chest, so he decided to walk ashore, otherwise he would be easily scratched by the reef.

Yue Xuelian waved her hand towards Liu Xiaonan and shouted loudly: "Brother, the waves are too big, come up quickly."

Liu Xiaonan raised the heavy net bag in his hand and shook it towards Yue Xuelian: "I'll go up right away, don't worry, it's fine."

Just at this time, a huge wave came from behind, and the waves lifted Liu Xiaonan, who was defenseless, high, and then fell heavily.

The waves receded, and he was thrown sideways on a reef hidden under the sea, and a sharp pain rushed from his waist to his whole body.The net bag in his hand flew out, flew far away, drew an arc and fell into the sea.

When it fell, the waist was the focus point, and the waist and buttocks were severely injured at the same time.My buttocks were burning with pain, and my waist was in severe pain as if it had been broken, and I couldn't exert any strength.Liu Xiaonan lay on her back on the reef, unable to move, and the sea water below her body seeped traces of blood.

This is an oval-shaped active reef, lying on several fixed reefs, covered with oysters.The waist and buttocks must have been cut by sharp oyster shells.

The waves kept coming, and he lay on the reef and swayed back and forth, which aggravated the pain in his waist. He could only hold the edge of the reef with his hands to stabilize his body, and his fingers were cut.

"Xiao Nan!" Yue Xuelian yelled loudly, and rushed into the sea recklessly, without taking off her clothes and shoes.

The waves rushed towards her, she couldn't stand steadily, she sat down in the sea, got up and continued to rush into the sea.She saw Liu Xiaonan was thrown high by the waves and fell heavily on the rocks. She had been motionless for such a long time, so she must have been seriously injured.

"Don't come here." Liu Xiaonan endured the pain and yelled loudly, trying to stop Yue Xuelian from taking risks.

Yue Xuelian was thrown down several times by the waves, took a few mouthfuls of bitter and salty sea water, and rushed into the sea like crazy.

Gritting her teeth, Liu Xiaonan turned over from the rock, waved her hands and twisted her waist, enduring the severe pain and ran towards Yue Xuelian, shouting: "Go ashore quickly, it's dangerous."

Yue Xuelian didn't seem to hear, and still wanted to rush forward to rescue Liu Xiaonan ashore, until a wave submerged her in the sea.

The chest-deep sea water made it impossible to run at all, and her walking speed was far less than her swimming speed. Liu Xiaonan no longer cared about getting her belly scratched by the rocks, swam her arms and legs at the fastest speed, and swam towards Yue Xuelian.

Fortunately, she learned to breathe with her mouth and hold her breath yesterday, Yue Xuelian was dazed, her hands were waving wildly, she poked her head out of the sea water, and she couldn't stand upright staggeringly.

A big wave came and sent Liu Xiaonan in front of her.Liu Xiaonan pulled Yue Xuelian up from the sea, and protected her in front of her chest.The waves hit Liu Xiaonan's back with a bang, the waves splashed, and the sea water poured down his head.

The waves continued to rush forward, and the two people hugged each other tightly like exposed rocks.Yue Xuelian woke up, but she didn't want to wake up, she would rather close her eyes and hide in this powerful arm, bearing the impact of the waves.

Liu Xiaonan shook Yue Xuelian, and shouted anxiously: "You raise your head, open your eyes and let me have a look."

Yue Xuelian raised her head, opened her eyes, and the waves splashed in her eyes.Another wave came and beat on Liu Xiaonan's back, he bent down again to protect Yue Xuelian.

The waves receded, and the two embraced tightly and kissed together.The waves came from behind one after another, but there was no power to separate them. The bitterness and saltiness of the sea water would only become the coagulant of love.

The two supported each other and staggered onto the beach.Yue Xuelian hugged Liu Xiaonan limply, her clothes and skirt clung to her body, her hair was also scattered by the waves, strands of sea water flowed down, fortunately the strappy sandals were still on her feet.

Liu Xiaonan carefully checked her arms and legs, but fortunately there were no scratches.

Liu Xiaonan took Yue Xuelian's pale and longing face with both hands, and shouted: "Xuelian, my teacher Xiaoyue! All along, I don't know if I still have the strength to love, and if I can give all my emotions for one person. Now I Tell you, I can!"

Tears of joy flowed down her face together with the bitter sea water, Yue Xuelian's lips trembled and she couldn't help crying: "Brother, I have waited too long for this moment."

The wind is mighty and the waves are monstrous.Liu Xiaonan took Yue Xuelian's hand, and walked into the sea side by side against the raging waves.He called out to the depths of the sea: "Rumeng, where are you?"

Yue Xuelian replied affectionately: "I'm here. Idiot, where are you?"

"I'm by your side."

"Crazy!"

"It's like a dream!"
