I live in Beihai Jun Nanhai [Rebirth]

Shui Jing frowned, and then suddenly realized that the woman said last night that the boat her husband borrowed from fishermen was the "largest and strongest" of all the fishing boats along the coast.

Seeing the change in his expression, Xie Wuyi knew that he had thought of the key point, and said with a smile: "Other fishermen may fake the shape of the boat, but that woman won't. The damaged boat doesn't belong to her. The subsidy is not enough for her. Secondly, she has made an enmity with the fisherman, and she will not help the other party to lie about the boat type. Therefore, if she said that the boat is the largest among all the fishing boats, it must be the largest."

Shui Jing nodded in agreement, and said with a smile: "Well, since you have proved that the fishing boat may not meet the requirements for crossing reefs, I understand the point of 'unreasonable', so what about your so-called 'unreasonable'? What do you mean?"

Xie Wuyi looked at the Milky Way reflected on the sea surface, took a deep breath and said, "Actually, the explanation of 'unreasonable' is simpler."

"Although there are different types of fish and shrimp in the deep sea and the shallow sea, the common types in the market can be found in the shallow sea, and the quantity is sufficient. Fishermen go to sea to make a living, not to play and explore. Since the shallow sea can Why should they look far away when their needs are met?"

He turned his head to look at Shui Jing, and said: "Take the fathers of the two children yesterday as an example. They obviously have their own boat, but why do they want to borrow the 'biggest and strongest' one? Because they are afraid of the 'sea monster' '. But why do you still go to sea even though you are afraid? Because you have to go to make a living."

He sighed softly, looked forward again, and said: "In previous years, maybe they would occasionally go against the ban and go to the deep sea to try their luck, to see if they could find some rare fish species to sell to dignitaries. But This year, there was a mirage incident first, followed by frequent disappearances. They all believed that there were monsters in the sea. I really can’t think of any reason why they would continue to break into it even though they knew the danger of the deep sea. Send to death."

Shui Jing looked at his side face under the moonlight, and listened to him explaining his analysis and judgment slowly, for some reason, he suddenly remembered an irrelevant story.

According to the story, there was an emperor who loved to eat watermelon and had to eat two dishes every day.

Once when he left the palace in low clothes, he heard the shouts of the old melon sellers on the street, and suddenly his tongue was full of saliva, and he wanted to buy some to eat.But when he walked to the stall and saw the watermelon, he froze in place, and then angrily accused the old farmer of being a liar.

It turned out that he used to eat peeled and cut melons in the palace. He had never seen the rind of melons, and he always thought that watermelons were bright red, so when he saw the pile of green watermelons as a bento, the old farmer was pretending to be something else. .

The story, while exaggerated, is not entirely without purpose.

Many princes and aristocrats who grew up in the high walls of the deep palace grew up with rich clothes and fine food, and they didn't know the sufferings of the people, and often had such absurd questions as "why not eat minced meat".

On the other hand, Xie Wuyi, from his "New Law of Dayu" to what he said today, can see his detailed understanding of the trivial matters of people's livelihood and his deep intentions.

If he hadn't had an in-depth understanding, he wouldn't know that fishermen divide the sea area into "good and evil", wouldn't know what kinds of fish and shrimps are common in the market, wouldn't know whether there is enough fish in the shallow sea, and wouldn't know the families of the missing persons One of the reasons for lying about the ship's shape.

And if he hadn't put his heart into it, he wouldn't have bothered to understand it, he wouldn't have read the case carefully, he wouldn't have speculated, he wouldn't have gone into the water to save the two children, and he wouldn't have risked himself to go out to sea.

Such a person still feels "ashamed" when the people praise him for being "selfless and fearless".

What shame?

Xie Wuyi turned his head and saw Shui Jing looking at him for a moment, wondering: "What?"

Shui Jing withdrew her thoughts, looked away and smiled, "It's nothing, I just think you're stupid."

Xie Wuyi was a little puzzled, and said, "Is what I just said wrong?"

"No," Shui Jing looked at him, and said with a half-smile, "It's because you're right that I think you're stupid."

Xie Wuyi was in a cloud of fog, not knowing where he came to such a conclusion.

Shui Jing sat on the railing, propped his elbow on one knee, raised his eyebrows and said: "You said it yourself, knowing that taking risks is 'unreasonable', so it's also unreasonable for you to know that there are tigers in the mountains and go to the mountains like you Aren’t you stupid to do it knowing it’s unreasonable?”

Xie Wuyi was startled, as if he had thought about the words seriously, then smiled lightly and said, "It's true."

After finishing speaking, he pursed his lips again and said, "However, this fool always needs someone to do it."

Shui Jing saw that he was speaking in a serious manner, nodded and jokingly said: "Idiots are not bad, anyway, isn't it often said that fools are blessed with fools? Maybe being a fool can really bring good luck to disasters and turn bad luck into good luck."

Xie Wuyi smiled and said, "I accept your good words."

After finishing speaking, both of them fell silent, and looked towards the sea in the distance.

The fishing boat undulates slightly with the waves, and follows the long road reflected by the Milky Way, making people feel that the boat is not in the water, but suspended above the Milky Way.

The thin clouds have already drifted away, the full moon has no cover, and the reflection in the water no longer looks like a hill, but has become a piece of clear cold jade that can be seen from a distance but not played with.

Shui Jing looked at the brilliant galaxy, and thought of those missing fishermen and their relatives waiting at home, suddenly recalled a poem he had read before, and chanted casually: "I'm afraid it's because the immortal family is so good at parting, so teach me The best time for handing over is because the blue sky falls on the bank of the Milky Way, but it is time for golden wind and jade dew."

Xie Wuyi turned his head to look at him, and said with great interest, "You can be regarded as an 'Xianjia'?"

"Of course not," Shui Jing denied without thinking, then shook his head and laughed, "I don't have the hobby of beating mandarin ducks like the Xian family, so don't wrong me."

Xie Wuyi smiled and said nothing, and looked forward again.

Shui Jing asked: "What are you going to do next? Just float on the sea and wait?"

Xie Wuyi shook his head: "The old fisherman at the helm said that the sea area where fishermen usually cast their nets will arrive before noon tomorrow, and we haven't encountered anything strange along the way so far, so I think it's probably where the incident happened. "

Shui Jing said: "Then what if nothing happens there?"

Xie Wuyi said: "Then continue south."

Shui Jing thought for a while, and said, "If you go further south, you will reach Bone Fan Reef?"

Xie Wu nodded and said, "Although I'm sure they won't cross the Bone Fan Reef, it's hard to guarantee that they won't get close to the reef. I still want to take a look."

Shui Jing asked again: "Then if we arrive at Bone Fan Reef, nothing will happen?"

Xie Wuyi glanced at him and said, "Then go back to shore and start all over again."

Shui Jing was stunned for a moment, then he couldn't laugh or cry and said, "Are you not going to give up when you are in danger?"

Xie Wuyi said: "If it's been smooth sailing after such frequent trips, it can only mean that the reason for the fishermen's disappearance may have disappeared."

Shui Jing nodded and said nothing more.

……

The next day.

As the old fisherman at the helm said, they arrived at the place where fishermen used to cast their nets before noon.

The sea was calm, the sun shone on the water, sparkling, everything was the same as before, and they didn't encounter anything strange.

Xie Wuyi ordered the old fishermen to circle the boat a few times around the sea area. All the people on board lined up on both sides of the boat, carefully observed and searched for a long time in the sea, but found neither the wreckage nor the wreckage. any exceptions.

Shui Jing stood beside Xie Wuyi, and Shaoyu stood beside Shui Jing, frowning and asking: "Your Highness, what should we do now?"

Shui Jing tilted her head to see his expression, and teased, "What's the matter? You seem disappointed that you can't meet the Sea Demon?"

Shaoyu said bluntly: "If you don't meet up this time, you have to go back and come back again. If you don't meet up again, you have to come back again. The spirit will be exhausted."

After he finished speaking, he seemed to be afraid of being heard, so he lowered his voice, bared his teeth, and said quickly without moving his mouth: "If you die sooner or later, you will die, it's better to give it to you."

Although there was a water mirror in the middle, Xie Wuyi still heard this whisper. He glanced at Shaoyu, but he didn't show much emotion, and said: "Order, continue to go south."

"Yes." Shaoyu muffled, turned and left.

The fishing boat turned around and continued to head south. Not long after, a small black spot appeared in front of it.

Bone Fan Island.

This lonely island is too small, but because there are no other islands in the entire shallow sea, it is unique.

After getting closer, you can gradually see its whole picture.

Although the island is small, it is full of verdant trees and looks vibrant.Above this blue sea, it is only a touch of green, like an oasis in the desert, and a bright moon in the night sky is particularly conspicuous.

As the boat approached the island, the boat slowed down. The fisherman at the helm adjusted his direction, turned the boat sideways and walked slowly along the reef.

Shui Jing stood on the side of the boat and looked into the water. The connection between the reef and Bone Fan Island was so high that it almost broke out of the water, and then it seemed to go downhill. The farther away from the island, the lower it became. When it is unclear, the trend will calm down.

Shui Jing couldn't help thinking that the fishermen called it the "city wall in the sea". isolated from the outside.

Xie Wuyi asked the other three ships to test whether they could cross the Bone Fan Reef, and concluded that only the smallest ship could barely pass the reef.

From this point of view, the possibility of the missing fishing boats going to the deep sea is even smaller. Now these boats are still empty, and it is still difficult to cross the reef. If the water is deeper with fish and shrimps, it is even more impossible to pass .

Except for the conclusion that the ship was in trouble on the reef, there was still nothing, so Xie Wuyi had to order to turn back.

It is a good thing that no accident happened, but Xie Wuyi's expression became a bit more solemn than before. He kept holding his hands behind his back until he was far away from Bone Fan Reef, passed by the sea area where fishermen used to, and left that sea area again. Standing on the side of the boat, frowning slightly without saying a word.

After working for so long, it was already sunset and the sky was getting dark.

Shui Jing still stood there, motionless as if he was in a trance, patted him on the shoulder and said, "It is true, as you said before, that the reason for the disappearance of the fishermen has disappeared."

Xie Wuyi didn't feel relieved by his relief, looked at the distance and shook his head slowly: "I always feel that something is wrong."

Shui Jing said: "We have been to all the sea areas frequented by fishermen, even the Bone Fan Reef, what could be wrong?"

Xie Wuyi stared ahead, frowning in deep thought.

After a long time, his eyes suddenly flashed, and he turned to Shaoyu and said, "Order them to stop the boat, furl the sail and cast the net."
