Wei Suo and An Ran both nodded.
"We're in the same boat. We're like grasshoppers tied to the same rope. If we cooperate well, we might live a bit longer!" Hong Xiaoyang said.
"That's right!" Wei Suo responded. "Yangyang, which direction are we heading now?"
Hong Xiaoyang thought for a while and said, "The previous tornado moved eastward. We'll go west. The farther away from it, the better."
Their wooden boat was still some distance from the tornado, but it was almost capsized by the wind and waves.
It was because of the tornado that they accidentally arrived at An Ran's island.
Hong Xiaoyang couldn't help but sigh. Blessings and misfortunes depend on each other. It's really the will of heaven!
The tornado almost killed them, but because of it, they found An Ran, the goose that lays the golden eggs!
Being able to continuously obtain water and food from An Yue and Xiao Yi, isn't she just like the goose that lays the golden eggs?
Xiao Yi tracked the light spot representing An Ran on the island tablet map.
"Huh? They're coming in my direction!" Xiao Yi was quite surprised.
There are no signs or shipping lanes in this sea area. The course is entirely up to personal will.
Xiao Yi didn't expect Hong Xiaoyang to choose his direction.
If he knew it was because of the tornado, Xiao Yi would bow and thank the tornado!
Xiao Yi stared at the distance between the light spot and himself and fell into deep thought.
It's too far! More than 3,000 li! At the speed of the current medium-sized sailboat, it would take a week to meet An Ran.
But no one knows what will happen within this week!
While Xiao Yi was deep in thought, the island tablet rang again.
"Xiao Yi, I encountered a group of enraged sharks, and they've targeted me!" Jiang Yuntian said. "The hull is damaged, and I need supplies."
"Yes!" Jiang Yuntian pushed the fish repeller to its limit and set sail towards the south. At this moment, the north wind was howling on the sea!
In this way, Jiang Yuntian's course was completely opposite to the original one.
Although An Yue hoped that Jiang Yuntian would arrive at Xiao Yi's island as soon as possible so that Xiao Yi could rescue An Ran, he knew that if he forced his way through, it would consume a huge amount of supplies, and Jiang Yuntian himself would be in danger. With a slight mistake, the ship could be destroyed and people could die.
An Yue loved his daughter, but he wasn't a selfish person.
When night fell, on the small boat, Hong Xiaoyang threw a fur coat to An Ran and said, "You stay at the bow and rest, and keep an eye on the supplies on the sea."
After saying that, she turned around and walked into the narrow cabin and lowered the curtain.
Moments later, as the wooden boat swayed, Hong Xiaoyang's undisguised flirtatious voice came from the cabin. An Ran blushed and said, "Can't you be a bit more restrained?"
About five minutes later, Hong Xiaoyang scolded, "Useless thing. You go rest at the stern tonight!"
Soon, the sound of footsteps came from the stern. Presumably, it was Wei Suo.
An Ran tightened the fur coat on her and thought to herself, "It seems to be getting colder and colder. I wonder if Xiao Yi has prepared cold-proof clothes."
"Achoo!"
Xiao Yi rubbed his nose and muttered, "It really is going to get colder."
As he spoke, he tightened his clothes, walked out the door, and glanced at the paddy field he had expanded and planted. This time, he had planted rice all over the land!
He believed that he could eat rice this week.
"I hope An Ran can enjoy it with me!" Xiao Yi thought so. He added some fodder to the cow shed and chicken coop and then returned to the bedroom to rest.
Yuan Nong's progress was smooth. Coupled with the tailwind at the moment, his sailboat was speeding towards Su Wan's island and might even arrive ahead of schedule!
However, due to the trouble with the shark group, Jiang Yuntian not only failed to move forward but also retreated. It was estimated that he wouldn't arrive until tomorrow morning at the earliest!
There's no rush for this matter.
Seeing that there were no other matters, after roasting a few fish for dinner, Xiao Yi returned to his room to rest. He needed to conserve his energy because An Ran was waiting for his rescue!
He glanced at the public channel, and everyone was discussing the weather conditions.
"Guys, it seems to be getting colder and colder tonight!"
"Yeah, I've put on my fur coat already!"
"It seems that the cold-proof equipment we made before is finally useful!"
"Could it be that the tornado brought the temperature down?"
"Probably not. Maybe it's a cold current coming!"
"In just four weeks, it feels like we've experienced all four seasons!"
"Hey, when you say that, it's really possible! According to this calculation, from the first week until now corresponds to spring, summer, and autumn, and next week must be winter!"
"It was so hot last week. It's going to be freezing in winter!"
"Who has spare fur coats and quilts? I'm in urgent need! I'm willing to exchange a large amount of supplies. Let's trade in the trading hall!"
"I'm also buying cold-proof equipment!"
Seeing that everyone was talking about the cold, Xiao Yi traded the cold-proof clothes of Yun Nong and Jiang Yuntian to them again. It must be even colder sailing on the sea!
Jiang Yuntian anesthetized two big sharks. There were still small sharks following, but the full-power fish repeller made them miserable.
They only followed for a while and then scattered!
The island tablet no longer prompted that the hull was under attack. Jiang Yuntian heaved a sigh of relief and reported in the group, "Xiao Yi, I've gotten rid of the shark group and adjusted my course. I might have to take a detour."
"Okay, be careful and come as soon as possible!" Xiao Yi replied.
Seeing that Xiao Yi seemed eager for Jiang Yuntian to arrive earlier, Su Wan privately messaged and asked, "Xiao Yi, is there something urgent?"
"Yeah, I'm rescuing someone. The situation is critical!" Xiao Yi replied restlessly.
Seeing that Xiao Yi had no intention of chatting, Su Wan had no choice but to say, "Everything will be okay. You'd better rest first!"
Xiao Yi nodded, ended the conversation, lay back on the bed worriedly, and had trouble falling asleep. He was constantly worried about An Ran and fell asleep in a daze.
"Bitch, I told you to look for the supply box. Who told you to sleep!" Hong Xiaoyang slapped An Ran and kicked her.
An Ran was already weak. She was kicked and stepped back continuously. She accidentally tripped over the fishing net and fell into the sea!
"No!" Xiao Yi exclaimed and suddenly sat up.
It turned out to be just a dream. Xiao Yi wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and thought to himself, "No, I must rescue An Ran as soon as possible!"
He checked the time. It was already 2 o'clock in the early morning of the next day.
"System, sign in immediately!" Xiao Yi said in a deep voice.
"Sign-in successful. Reward obtained:..."
Chapter 0101 Third-order SSS-class yacht. Set sail immediately
"Sign-in successful. Reward obtained: Small multi-functional yacht (third-order SSS-class)."
"Small multi-functional yacht (third-order SSS-class): Made of cosmic alloy all over, driven by electricity. The maximum speed can reach 600 kilometers per hour! The cruising range is 10,000 kilometers. It's a necessary magical weapon for sea adventures!"
Seeing this reward, Xiao Yi knew that he could set out to rescue An Ran!
Previously, the fastest speed of a speedboat in this world was only 511 kilometers per hour, and many functions were sacrificed to reach this speed.
The yacht obtained from the sign-in was not only fast but also surpassed the previous speedboats!
With a speed of 600 kilometers per hour, it would only take five hours to cover 3,000 kilometers!
Xiao Yi immediately said in the group, "Brother Jiang, when you arrive at my place later, wait for me to come back before getting off the boat. Wang Cai might not recognize you."
"Okay, aren't you here? Where are you going?" Jiang Yuntian asked.
"I'm going to rescue An Ran!" Xiao Yi replied. "I'll distribute the food now. Everyone, take care of yourselves."
"Do you have a way to rescue Ranran?" An Yue asked excitedly. Obviously, he hadn't slept either.
"Yes. If everything goes well, she can arrive at my island tomorrow afternoon!" Xiao Yi replied.
"Great!" An Yue said excitedly. "Be sure to bring Ranran back safely."
Su Wan was awakened by the prompt sound of the island tablet. After seeing the chat on the island tablet, she thought to herself, "Who is Ranran?"
It wasn't convenient to interrupt and ask at this moment.
Xiao Yi distributed the stored food to everyone and let them deal with it and fill their stomachs.
"Wait, Xiao Yi. Why don't I go to the rescue after arriving at the island!" Jiang Yuntian suggested. "It's very dangerous at sea, and I'm good at this!"
"It's too late!" Xiao Yi shook his head and said.
Yuan Nong frowned and said, "But without the island tablet map, it might be difficult to determine the direction!"
Xiao Yi's island was so prosperous in development that it was impossible for him to leave the island tablet behind and move it onto the boat!
Xiao Yi was stunned. He really hadn't considered this issue. He was too impatient!
