Survival [End Times]

The migration process was not very smooth. The fish were so huge that no one could stand it. However, Yu Heng lived on the main boat. The cruise ship was stable and strong, and very safe. Zeng Yu was also very steady and courageous. , protected himself well, and said: "Uncle, don't worry, our yacht is stronger than other people's wooden boats. Besides, I am a very good swimmer, so don't worry!"

During the migration, Yu Heng and the others did not go fishing. They had been eating stored food, including dried fish pickled by themselves, dried sea vegetables, etc., which were all very good food.

The food in the cafeteria has also gone down a notch. I heard that all the aquatic vegetables in the water floating racks that used to live in the water area have been picked, and all the floating racks have also been removed. In order to reduce the burden during this migration, all the ducks, geese, etc., except for the seedlings, were killed and collected.

And the destination is still far away. After eating these things, there is no way to replenish them on the way. For this reason, the canteen has been relatively stingy in terms of ingredients recently, and the sewing is very tight. If you don’t have any food or private inventory, just in the canteen Eating is really hard on my stomach.

"Uncle, your pickled kelp is so delicious. It's exactly the same as grandma's. This shredded radish is also delicious." Zeng Yu is now very good at talking, and he is so sincere when he praises others. Yu Heng even laughed: "How about you? Eat something.”

He came out to deliver food to Zeng Yu. He sat cross-legged on the small deck to get some air. Suddenly, he saw a somewhat familiar person. He squinted and looked at it a few more times, and then felt someone pulling him: "What's wrong?" "Xiaoyu?"

"Uncle, what are you doing? I asked you if you wanted to drink. Someone came to stay last night. I didn't agree, but he brought half a bottle of rice wine, so I agreed hehehe."

"Keep it for yourself and take a sip when it's cold at night." Yu Heng changed the topic and sat with Zeng Yu for a while, before returning to the main ship when the night got dark. Then when he swam onto the boat, he saw Zhang Zhi again.

Zhang Zhi is already very old. He counted, he should be only thirty-eight or thirty-nine this year, right? His hair could be seen as gray in the dark, and his eyes were gloomy with an animosity that reflected a life that was not going well for him, but he was also a little shy and flattering.

At this time, Zhang Zhi was promoting himself at the entrance of the main ship. Yes, he was not promoting his own products, but promoting himself: "My knife skills are very good. I kill and fillet fish... I can also take a bath. Look, I left it specially." Nails can help you clean the dirt from your scales..."

Yu Heng lined up to get on the boat, listening to Zhang Zhi recommending one by one to the fishmen in line. Here I would like to talk about a new profession now made up of ordinary people in the protection circle: labor sellers.

The hunting ability of these ordinary people is quite weak, and their food source can only get the minimum food security quota from the public canteen, and the price is two-thirds lower than what the fishmen on the main ship pay. But this is the case. Most of them have no other jobs. Even if they are fishing, they cannot save enough labor points to support the minimum food allowance, and their living burden is heavy.

In order to live a better life, it is necessary to pursue extra money. The fishmen could catch a lot of fish but they couldn't, so a series of labor supply projects came into being. They can clean the fish, massage and tell stories, wash and beautify the fish... As long as the fish needs it, they can provide any service, even sexual services.

After providing services, supplies are exchanged. Because the transfer of labor points requires going to the exchange office, the management is very strict and inconvenient - ordinary people cannot board the main ship. So generally you can get fish from fishmen (which is the most common), vegetables, meat, or even better, rare biscuits and instant noodles.

The authorities also support this type of transaction, believing that it can effectively promote vitality among the population. As the saying goes, it gives ordinary people something to do and less trouble. In order to cooperate, a department was specially established to mediate conflicts and disputes that arise during the transaction process between ordinary people and fishmen.

Driven by various forces, there are more and more labor providers. Now they all stop the boats every evening to allow fishmen to go out into the water and relevant departments and agencies to handle daily affairs, such as sewage discharge, cleaning and maintenance, etc. We will continue on our way after dawn tomorrow. During this gap, labor providers are also active. They enthusiastically squeeze in front of the fish people and ask if they need help or services.

Yu Heng had not seen Zhang Zhi for many years, and his memory of the chance encounter at an ordinary intersection in Sili Plateau was vague. The reason why he could recognize Zhang Zhi was because he had already engraved his son's face in his heart. He didn't have to pay special attention, he could be recognized at a glance from the crowd.

It seems that Zhang Zhi is not living a very good life. He has not transformed into a fish and is an ordinary person.

This was the only thought that crossed his mind, and he didn't think about anything else. Soon, Zhang Zhi's sales pitch came to him. He shook his head, and Zhang Zhi smiled ingratiatingly and went back.

"No, go away!"

"Why don't you see any beautiful young girls today?"

"..."

Yu Heng got on the boat and walked straight to the dormitory. Behind him, Zhang Zhi and a female fish-man swam away in the water. The camera then went to another entrance ten meters away. Hu Mi greeted her second husband who had just returned: "How are you? Are you not injured?"

"No, you take Xiaobao back first. I'll go to the exchange office and be back soon." The man was very tall, and his whole body was covered with water-stained fish scales. Only half of his face exposed showed his former appearance.

Hu Mi helped lift the net bag in the man's hand, and Xiaobao, who was more than four years old, also helped lift a corner and said in a sweet voice: "It's so heavy."

The man smiled and touched his head: "You have to grow up quickly so that you can help dad carry it." After saying that, he put the child on his shoulder, and Xiaobao hugged his neck in a familiar manner, Climbing up slowly, he sat down holding his head.

"I will grow up soon, and catch big--fish with my dad!"

Seeing the two father and son getting along well, Hu Mi smiled happily. Her husband was a relatively successful fish-man who had lost his fertility, so he chose her not only because he liked her, but also because she was a "widow" with a child. Because of this thought, he regarded Xiaobao as his own child and cared about him very much.

What else is there to be dissatisfied with? The first time she played a trick was when she claimed that she was a widow. After living with this man, she also learned to be a wife and learn to shoulder the responsibilities of the family. She would definitely be able to live a good life.

"You're back, come on, come on, I just got this from another fish-man!" Zeng Pingnian greeted Yu Heng as soon as he came back.

"You must like it!" Zeng Pingnian narrowed his eyes with a smile and fished out two fish that were only about 30 centimeters in length from a short basin under the bed. Yu Heng recognized the fish just by looking at them. They were dark and shiny. This is one of the newly discovered deep-sea fish species. The meat is particularly delicious. He really likes to eat it, especially the thinly sliced ​​raw fish, which tastes amazing.

"Be happy, hahaha. Come on, I've already burned the knife. I'll take a picture when you come back."

Yu Heng sat down after listening to Zeng Pingnian's words, and Zhao Xu crawled over and hugged his calf: "Aunt Taohua, have you told your cousin that I cut the dried radish today, and I cut it very finely. Is it tasty?"

He touched Zhao Xu's head: "As I said, your cousin praised you for your ability." Zhao Xu grinned when he heard this, revealing a row of small teeth with missing front teeth.

The family enjoyed a meal of sashimi. Yu Heng praised Zeng Pingnian: "Brother, your knife skills are getting better and better. How about I go to the cafeteria and ask if there is still a shortage of masters?"

"Hahaha, okay, I'd like to go. I'll give you an extra spoonful when you come to eat from now on!"

"Wow! That's great~" Zhao Xu applauded the audience.

It was a very pleasant night, but when they set off again the next day, the super fleet encountered the biggest attack. The attack came not from the previous deep-sea behemoths, but from humans.

Yu Heng was brushing his teeth at the time, and there was a pile of toothbrushes and toothpaste in the storage ring. In the past, he mainly stored food, and later ate it slowly. Although he replenished the supplies, he already focused on daily necessities. After all, he believed in his ability to hunt, and now he relied on the sea to survive, with food everywhere. Daily necessities are non-renewable in a short period of time.

After brushing his teeth, he carefully took out a box. This was an ointment he made using traditional Chinese medicine. It was very good for wiping on the face. It could moisturize the scales and prevent them from becoming dry and uncomfortable due to dehydration for too long.

As he was wiping his face, a feeling of danger hit him directly. His heart jumped suddenly, and then he heard a loud and earth-shattering noise outside!

"Boom!"

Everyone was shocked! What followed was a scream of terror!

He immediately jumped up and ran outside to take a look. He ran so fast that the exit of the inner cabin was instantly blocked by the people running behind him.

Standing on the deck and looking out, you can see thick smoke billowing in the distance, and then the sirens sound, rapid and yet uniquely steady.

"Please don't panic and stay where you are! Please don't panic and stay where you are!"

"The bomb only damaged one protective shield and there were no casualties. Please stop running noisily and maintain order!"

"..."

"Where did the bomb come from?" Yu Heng frowned, which country did it come from? Which force? On the vast body of water, is this a demonstration or a real attack?

What if it was a robbery? Such a huge fleet would only come to rob them blindly, but it is not ruled out that they could not vent their anger before leaving because of the robberies. What if it is really a major force in a certain country that wants to seize the opportunity to attack? What is thrown will not be bombs, but missiles!

"Go in, come in!"

He and others were driven back to the dormitory. On the road, he met Zeng Pingnian who was looking for him. Zeng Pingnian said with a dark face: "Why are you running around? It's so dangerous! Let's go home." He dragged him and started Walk.

Sitting in the inner cabin, everyone was talking about who was attacking their ship.

"Could it be people from other countries? Or pirates!"

"Wow, does it look like a pirate in a novel? A pirate ship and a pirate captain! Cool~Ouch! Dad, why are you hitting me!"

Yu Heng and Zeng Pingnian sat huddled together on the boat. Zhao Xu hugged his grandfather obediently and stared out the window with his big eyes like adults, but he couldn't see anything at all.

"I wonder how Xiaoyu is doing? He called me and said it was okay..." Zhao Yun muttered, and Yu Heng said: "It should be okay. The explosion happened in the direction of the No. 7 main ship, which was very far away from us, and there were people on board. The protective shield also has an air defense system, so it can’t be penetrated.”

"I hope so."
