Chapter 246 Rescue
Lu Xiaolu looked up and saw a group of dolphins walking side by side on the right side of the Golden Sailfish, constantly jumping out of the water.

Shirley was already screaming and running to the deck to film the video.

This was the first time they met dolphins, Lu Xiaolu also slowed down the speed of the boat, and kept driving side by side with them.

After about five or six minutes, the dolphins had enough breath and disappeared one after another.

Shirley still had something to say, and walked in with her mouth pouted, sighing.

Lu Xiaolu thought it was funny: "Why didn't I know you also like dolphins."

"Hmph, I won't tell you anymore. I'm going to rest. Call me on the walkie-talkie when you're tired."

"Well, go to sleep and call you when I arrive."

After the meeting, driving a boat was much more comfortable than driving a car. I stepped on the accelerator and let it run, as long as it didn't deviate from the course.

Xueli is not here, Lu Xiaolu can still smoke and play little songs, not to mention how leisurely she is.

He likes going out to sea in the afternoon the most. Facing the setting sun, the clouds in the sky are all reflected red.

The hull of the boat spreads out the sea water, like the tail of the Golden Sailfish. Dozens of seabirds hover around the hull, rushing into the water from time to time, preying on the flying fish that follow the fishing boat.

It would be nice to have an aerial photography drone at this time, how beautiful it would be.

The lighthouse in the sea began to light up, guiding the hardworking fishermen on their way home.

From time to time, fishing boats pass by the Golden Sailfish. One has just left the sea and the other has returned. Fishermen in a good mood will honk their horns to signal, while those who have not caught anything will sail back silently.

This is the first time that Lu Xiaolu has started to enjoy the job of being a fisherman.

There was a huge offshore drilling platform operating in front of it, like a hill, Lu Xiaolu turned half of the rudder to avoid it from a distance.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the Golden Sailfish arrived at the scheduled route.

Before he had time to call Shirley, suddenly, an anxious cry for help came from the radio.

"Is there a boat nearby, help us! My boat is about to sink before the patrol boat comes over."

"It's over, it's over."

Lu Xiaolu's face paled, did someone ask for help?

Quickly picked up the radio communicator: "Hello, I am the Golden Sailfish here, what's the matter with you?"

"Thankfully, a ship finally came."

"Hahaha, we are saved!" An excited voice came from the intercom, like the rest of the life after a catastrophe.

"Golden Sailfish, Captain Lu, hello, I am the captain of the Coconut Tree. Our fishing boat has encountered a reef and is about to sink. Can you come and rescue us?"

"Report your coordinates."

"198, 35."

Lu Xiaolu hurriedly set the coordinates on the radar, it was about three nautical miles to his left.

"Got it, I'll be right over."

"Wait, I don't know how many reefs are around here, so be careful when you come here."

"receive."

Lu Xiaolu turned the rudder to the left, and the Golden Sailfish drew a circle on the sea, moving slowly towards the set coordinates.

At the same time, he threw the crayfish down the porthole.

Steer with one hand and control with the other.

Entering the sea, the crayfish stretched out, and then swam forward quickly.

"Captain Lu, how long are you away from us? Our ship is about to sink." An anxious voice came from the wireless point.

Lu Xiaolu frowned: "Is there no rubber boat on your boat?"

The general ship will be equipped with rubber boats, such as the Golden Sailfish, and some with good conditions will get a lifeboat with a propeller.

If an ocean-going ship does not have this facility, your ship will not be able to obtain a sea-going certificate at all.

"Hey, there were originally, but unfortunately the rope was broken, and I don't know where it is drifting."

"Well, I think I already know where it is." A rubber boat was photographed by the waves.

Lu Xiaolu didn't have time to take care of it, so he controlled the crayfish and rushed to the target location first.

The power of the crayfish did not disappoint Lu Xiaolu, and the Golden Swordfish had already seen the target when it was halfway through.

A fishing boat sank by a third, and there were three people sitting on it, huddling together on the roof of the cabin, looking at the dark water and shivering, no wonder Lu Xiaolu didn't respond to his calls several times.

The sea at night is terrifying, and it feels like being swallowed.

Compared with the endless sea, a fishing boat was insignificant, and when the cabin of the Coconut Tree was flooded, it died a little faster, and the three people on it were so frightened that they retreated again and again, desperately standing on a higher point.

Lu Xiaolu looked worried, it was a big night and the wind and waves were so strong, if these people were swept into the sea, it would be troublesome.

But he can't rush up directly, that's only for being buried with him.

Controlling the crayfish, Lu Xiaolu discovered the reef where the Coconut Tree crashed and sunk.

No wonder, this reef is very huge, the top is about ten square meters, the bottom is even bigger, like a small hillside, and there are scattered small reefs nearby, Lu Xiaolu didn't dare to drive over rashly, It stopped less than half a nautical mile away from them.

Seeing the lights approaching, the three fellow sufferers on the boat were so excited that they finally came to rescue them.

"Why did it stop there?"

"Nonsense, knowing that there are reefs nearby, no one should be careful."

"Then why didn't you pay attention?" his crew complained.

"It's also my first time in this sea area."

On the other side, Lu Xiaolu was thinking about how to get there when Xue Li came out.

"Donkey Oppa, put down the rubber boat, I'll take it there."

"No, no, you sit here, I'll go over."

"Well, you pay attention to safety, don't be brave."

"Don't worry, I know what to do."

With such a big wind and waves, their lifeboats had no propellers, so they could only paddle through them with one hand.

If it doesn't work, Lu Xiaolu will give up the rescue at any time.

Under the head-mounted searchlight, Lu Xiaolu kept an eye on the seabed over there while paddling, so as not to run aground again.

"We are here!"

Lu Xiaolu could already hear their cries for help, but it was the dark lights over there who couldn't see clearly, and the movements of his hands quickened a bit.

Half a nautical mile away, with such a big wind and waves, it was really not easy for Lu Xiaolu to row, and I don't know how long it took, and finally arrived at the front.

"Where's the boat!"

"Well, Gulu Gulu, help me, Gulu Gulu."

Lu Xiaolu's face paled, and he hurriedly looked for the source of the sound. One head was bobbing with the wind and waves, and his hands were still desperately pulling.

He wanted to swim, but when a wave hit him in the face, he choked into his trachea, and it was even worse when he panicked.

Before he had time to think about it, Lu Xiaolu yelled: "I caught it!" and quickly stretched out the oar.

Those hands finally grabbed a life-saving straw and hugged it in their arms.

"Quick, crawl over with the oars, how many people are still on board!"
