Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Gu Xiaole and his team of survivors have spent a relaxing day on the small broken sailboat.

The warm sunshine, the gentle breeze and the rippling waves make everything on the sea look so beautiful.

In the blink of an eye, the sky gradually darkened. Gu Xiaole stood on the sailboat with a telescope with night vision function and looked around carefully, but did not see any ships passing by.

"Miss Du, didn't you say yesterday that your ship, the Royal Mary, would be able to reach the waters near us by tonight at the latest?"

Elida asked somewhat seriously.

Du Xin'er said hesitantly:

"This...I'm not sure about this! Maybe they delayed their voyage or took the wrong route because they were drunk?"

Gu Xiaole shook his head and said:

"The possibility you mentioned is very low. Although I don't want to say it, I still have an ominous premonition that the Royal Mary will probably not appear in a short time."

"Isn't that right? Brother Xiaole, don't scare me?" the little girl Lin Jiao said immediately uncontrollably.

"I'm not trying to scare you. I think it's probably not an accident that Miss Du suddenly couldn't get through to the cruise ship this time!

It is very possible that their ship also encountered some emergencies!"

His words stunned several girls, and Du Xin'er immediately said with some pride:

"Brother Xiaole, I think you are worrying too much! Of course you don't understand the strength of our Du family, and I don't blame you!

But I can tell you simply that the cruise ship is a big one with a displacement of nearly 5,000 tons, and ordinary wind and waves cannot do anything to it!

Moreover, the cruise ship is equipped with a convoy of more than 10 people with heavy firepower, so you have nothing to fear even if you encounter pirates!"

Gu Xiaole smiled and nodded without saying anything in reply, but he still had a bad intuition in his heart, although he himself couldn't tell where this feeling came from.

Fortunately, their sailboat does not lack food at the moment. As for fresh water, Gu Xiaole can cope with the fish eyeballs and spinal fluid for a while.

Although Ning Lei, Lin Jiao and others were determined not to drink at first, their persistence lasted until noon of the next day. These girls were really able to withstand the torment of thirst.

Eventually, everyone started drinking fish eyeballs and spinal fluid...

By this time they had been drifting on the sea for three full days.

"Sister Xiaoxin..." Lin Jiao didn't need to say anything, Du Xin'er said helplessly:

"Little girl, please stop asking me. You have asked me more than 20 times a day in the past two days. I have made it clear to you that I don't know when the Royal Mary will arrive!"

Lin Jiao licked her chapped lips and turned her head, then looked at Gu Xiaole who was fishing not far away:

"Hey...Brother Xiaole, do you still have the spinal fluid from the big fish you caused?"

"No more. You have drank up all the bones of those big fish. I just took a look and there are still 4 or 5 fish eyes. If you want to drink, you have to hurry up... I just realized it.

Cat Peony just wants to eat it!”

"What?" Upon hearing what Gu Xiaole said, Lin Jiao, who was still in low spirits, climbed up from the deck and ran directly to the wooden barrel containing the fish eyeballs...

Ning Lei shook her head helplessly, walked to Gu Xiaole and asked:

"How about it, let's see how much you have caught after fishing all morning?"

Gu Xiaole smiled bitterly, turned around and pointed at the barrel behind him:

"Look, there were only a few palm-sized ones all morning. Fortunately, we had some food reserves before, otherwise we wouldn't just have nothing to drink now?"

Ning Lei nodded, and just as she was about to walk away, she heard Gu Xiaole suddenly shouting: "It's a big fish! It's a big fish!"

You must know that they have not caught a particularly large fish for two days. If they can catch this fish, not only can they produce a lot of meat, but the most important thing is that it can solve their urgent problem of no drinking water!

So the girls all gathered around and watched nervously as Gu Xiaole grabbed the fishing rod in his hand and kept sliding the big fish in the water...

"Brother Xiaole, how big is this fish?" Lin Jiao, who had just made her little mouth dirty from eating the fish's eyeballs, rushed to ask.

"I don't know! But it's definitely much bigger than the ones I caught before!"

As Gu Xiaole spoke, he kept walking back and forth along the edge of the deck to consume the big fish's energy.

Gu Xiaole did not dare to lift the fishing rod too hard, for fear that the fishing rod in his hand would snap into two pieces.

Fortunately, the quality of the fishing rods that Inoue Kumaji left for them was quite good. After Gu Xiaole and the big fish swam and fought for half an hour, the big fish was finally dragged to the boat by him after being exhausted.

"Wow! What kind of fish is this?" Lin Jiao looked curiously at this big fish with a weird shape.

With its pointed mouth, full of jagged-like fine teeth, and its streamlined body, it looks a bit like the swordfish that everyone usually eats.

However, the dark yellow fish scales sparkle in the sun, which is obviously not the same species as the swordfish.

Gu Xiaole watched carefully for a long time but couldn't figure out the reason. He asked Alida and Ning Lei next to him. The two girls also knew nothing about it.

The little girl Lin Jiao didn't care about all that, she came up directly and said:

"Oh, why are you thinking so much? There must be a lot of drinkable spinal fluid in the bones of this big fish. Brother Xiaole, please open up this fish quickly!"

Gu Xiaole nodded, and several people went into battle at the same time with knives. In a short time, they dismembered the big fish, which weighed more than 20 kilograms.

However, this time Gu Xiaole was careful and did not let them throw the scraps of the big fish directly into the sea. Instead, he threw them into parts, so that the smell of blood would not be too strong and attract sharks at once. On the other hand, it would also

It is possible to attract other big fish in the sea so that Gu Xiaole can catch more.

But things often don't go as smoothly as they expected. After initially throwing away the internal organs of the big fish, they did attract some large fish, which surrounded their sailboat and kept picking up the internal organs.

But not long after, several triangular dorsal fins once again streaked across the sea surface, and all those big fish were frightened and disappeared in an instant.

"Holy crap! These sharks are really haunting!" Gu Xiaole was so angry that he picked up the harpoon again, preparing to find the right opportunity to hit them again.

But strangely enough, just after these sharks circled their small sailboat a few times, they suddenly disappeared in the water!

"What's going on?" Ning Lei looked at Gu Xiaole nervously and asked.

Gu Xiaole did not answer, and still stared at the rippling sea with the steel fork in his hand. On the contrary, the little girl Lin Jiao beside him let out a long breath and said:

"What else could be going on? These sharks must have felt Brother Xiaole's powerful aura of dominance and were scared away!"

Everyone obviously disagreed with this answer, which was full of chuunifu's idiotic setting. Alida said slowly:

"Sharks are the top predators in the ocean. There are only two reasons why they suddenly disappear!

Or maybe the hunting target they were looking for suddenly disappeared..."

Having said this, Alida paused again, and Lin Jiao on the side quickly asked anxiously:

"Then what's the other reason?"

Elida shook her head and said:

"The second reason is that they suddenly encountered a predator that was more terrifying than them, but I think this possibility is very small.

Because there should be no creatures like killer whales in the ocean where we are now, I can’t think of anything else here that can scare these sharks away?”

But at this moment, the little girl Lin Jiao suddenly looked at the tail of the sailboat, swallowed her saliva and gently pulled Alida's sleeve, and whispered:

"Could it be it?"
