"No, there's something wrong with his floating figure. His body is under the water and his chest is on the sea. He should be lying on a log or something."

Ye Yaodong took a flashlight and kept shining it on the human figure in the water. When he took a closer look, his father's fishing boat got closer and he could see it more clearly.

"It really is."

"Is that dead or alive?"

"It should be half-dead. If it were dead, its body would be floating on the surface of the water, not under the water." Ye Yaodong said with a frown.

Father Ye had already driven his boat to the floating human figure. Its sudden deceleration also affected the situation of the fishing boats behind it. They also slowed down and gathered around to see the situation.

Aguang looked disgusted and said, "How about fishing?"

"Let's fish it out. We must fish it out whether it's dead or alive. We can't just leave it like this."

Father Ye also said: "Ask other people to help fish it out, and you two should stay out of it and don't get close."

Others gathered around the boat and watched. When the owner told him to fish, they immediately put on their gloves and did so.

These are experienced fishermen who have seen this situation before, so they only talked a few words at first, but when they started fishing, they all stopped talking.

Among the seven orifices, one must be closed anyway. After all, we are afraid of catching dead people or surprising things that should not be surprised.

The other fishing boats also looked at it in confusion and regret, why did they come close? They might all be in trouble.

It was dark and they were far away, so they couldn't tell whether they were alive or dead, so they all thought they had met a dead person.

In fact, they don't even think about it. They will have to follow Ye Yaodong next. If they are unlucky, it is also unlucky. If they are lucky, it is not necessarily the case.

There were other peripheral fishing boats that were preparing to approach. Everyone quickly turned to shout to them and kept gesticulating with their hands to tell them not to get closer.

"Retreat, retreat, retreat!"

Many boats didn't know what was going on, but since they were all told to retreat, they had no choice but to wait and take a look first.

Several fishermen on Ye Yaodong's boat used sticks to pull the unknown ghost on the sea surface, letting it float a little closer to the side of the boat so that they could easily get it out.

He didn't listen to his father and walked to the side with A Guang, both of them stretched their necks and looked at it.

When they pulled him up, they all saw a middle-aged man wearing a shirt. He looked quite strong, but he was not very tall, but he was still about 1.7 meters tall.

"This body seems to be very clean...it shouldn't have been long ago..."

"No, you didn't touch it just now. This body is soft. It should still be alive, right?"

"Yes, it's soft. I was so scared that I didn't think much about it. His body is soft..."

"Did he die not long ago? It was ice cold when I pulled him up."

"After being soaked in water for a long time, of course it will be cold. Is the watermelon also cold if it is soaked in water?"

"Don't use the metaphor of watermelon. How will you eat it tomorrow?"

"Try breathing, please?"

"You come..."

"You come..."

"you go……"

They bumped into each other, pushing and blocking each other. Without the master's instructions, who would be willing to join in and do such a thing?

"No, you should turn the person over first. Don't let him lie down. Don't they say he is clean and alive? Turn the person over first and look at the front first."

If Ye Yaodong is there, those people will also help turn the person over first.

His face was a little white from being soaked in sea water, but it wasn't swollen, and he wasn't bluish either.

There was even a pen pinned to the pocket on his chest. It looked very conspicuous. It was firmly pinned to the pocket, but it didn't fall out. It was still there.

This should be a cadre, right?

Or someone with a legitimate job in a public institution?

Otherwise, ordinary people cannot afford to use a pen, and ordinary workers rarely have a pen in their pocket, unless they like to show off.

"Try it and see if you feel angry?"

Those boatmen looked at me and I looked at you, and they pushed out the person who didn't help him just now. The old man shook his shoulders, squatted down to help, tried it, and then immediately withdrew his hand.

"You seem out of breath?"

"Out of energy?"

"Are you really out of breath?"

"Let's just say that there is no living body in this floating body on the sea? Then we can just drag it to an isolated island and bury it later."

"I didn't expect him to be dead. I thought he was alive."

Ye Yaodong also felt that he looked quite clean. Since everyone said that his body was soft and he had just floated in the sea, he also saw it and felt that he must be alive.

He squatted down and reached forward hesitantly.

"Dongzi, what are you doing?" Aguang's behavior was somewhat abnormal.

Ye Yaodong touched his neck and found that the aorta was still beating, and there was still a slight residual heat in his body.

His eyes widened, "This is alive!"

"Ah? Alive?"

"Alive?"

Father Ye also squatted down and asked, "Is it really alive?"

Ye Yaodong affirmed: "It's alive. If you touch his neck, the aorta in his neck is still beating there, and his body is still warm."

Suspicious, Father Ye also reached out and touched the man's neck on the ground. He really felt the beating and there was a little bit of residual heat on his body.

If it had died, it would have been floating in the sea without warmth.

"It's really alive."

"Ah? It's alive. I just tried it and it's true that I'm not breathing."

Father Ye also probed his mouth and nose, "It's just a little weak, but it's still a little bit weak."

Ye Yaodong interjected: "Heat some hot water, feed him, take off his clothes, give him a bath and change into another one. Dad, you can sail your boat, and I'll give him one to wear first."

"

He probably carried the most clothes here, and he was afraid of being exposed to the sun, so he wore long sleeves, which was just right for him to keep warm.

The boatmen all helped to move, and Father Ye also shouted to other boats around him, "It's okay. We saved a person, a living person, not a corpse. Let's continue on our way."

"Alive?"

"Alive? Just stay alive."

"Oh, it's alive, that's good, you can go now..."

"Yes, let's go, let's go, we can't delay any longer." After Ye's father shouted, he restarted the fishing boat and took the lead to lead the way.

It was dark at night, and their sailing speed was much slower than when it was dawn. After all, the sea here was not that familiar. Father Ye also had to identify the direction and look at the compass and compass while driving.

By the time we arrived at the island, it was already 9 o'clock, which was longer than expected.

The light was not good at night, but when Ye Yaodong took a flashlight to shine on the surrounding island environment, he felt familiar. This was the desert island where they had been sleeping rough at the end of last year.

His father is really good, Lao Ma really knows the way!

The flashlights around were swaying everywhere, and everyone was shouting excitedly and happily, finally here!

"Oh my god, it's finally here!" Aguang also stretched out greatly.

"Yeah, it's finally here. It's so late. I can just lay down a mat on the boat and lie down to sleep."

"I still need to tidy things up first."

"It's too late to set off today. We didn't set off until after 7 o'clock. If we set off at 4 o'clock in the morning when it's just dawn, it would be just right. It should be evening by the time we arrive, so it won't be as late as now."

"It's okay, it's okay. Of course, you have to wait and see if you have a good time when traveling to make money."

Ye Yaodong also ran to ask his father, "Should we move down the sundries like the pots and stoves? I remember last year, regardless of the high tide or low tide, there was a large beach exposed here."

This was the reason why they chose this island to stay. There was an exposed beach, which made it easier for them to drag the jellyfish to the shore for slaughter. Otherwise, their net hoisting machine would not be able to haul up too many jellyfish.

"Move it, take down all the long bamboo sticks piled in the corner, and then boil the jellyfish blood you just scraped off and dry it. This thing is the most expensive."

"Um."

After Ye's father got off the boat, he also shouted to others, and everyone started to move one after another.

Ye Yaodong ordered others to work while he squatted there and looked at the half-dead man, wondering what to do with him.

The boatman had already wiped his body with hot water and put him into clean clothes and trousers, which were just a little too long and had two sections of sleeves and trousers folded.

When the boat was sailing, he asked someone to boil a small bowl of rice soup and fed it in little by little. Now his complexion looked better than before, but he still hadn't woken up and his eyebrows were closed.

It seems that it can only be kept in the past few days, but it is not suitable to be kept on a boat. His boat is not the Harvest. It has a sleeping cabin and bunks for lying down.

He is lying on the deck. If they start fishing for jellyfish tomorrow, it will seriously affect their slaughtering work. They can only let him lie there for one night. If they go out to sea to fish tomorrow morning, they will have to leave him alone on the island.
