Ham leaned against the side of the ship, holding a pair of telescopes in his hand and looking into the distance.
There were no entertainment facilities on the ship, and there was no partner to play with Ham. At first he was quite excited, but after the excitement, the whole person was bored.
Just like now.
He moved the telescope in his hand towards the distant sea at random, completely meaningless to appreciate the distant scenery. Looking at it, it was clearly just to pass boring time.
In the past few days, Ham will also help to do some work, but it is only the simplest thing, too complicated, and he must be allowed to do it after he has had several fishing and fishing experiences.
And to be honest, there are not so many things in fishing itself.
Just toss the net into the sea, and then drag and walk for a day, or a night.
What these people need to do is to pick up the fish after the fish enter the net, and then sort and refrigerate.
If the fish are not picked up, they will have nothing to do.
The young man is hyperactive, but Ham has only been allowed to stay in this boat these days, but he was bored, and sometimes he also wanted to jump into the water and pierce a fierce man, but It was not allowed by his dad.
Therefore, in addition to being dazed, his daily entertainment is to look at the distant seascape with this telescope in his hand.
It was at this time that the movement in his hand suddenly took a break, and then he looked out to a place.
Inside his telescope's lens barrel, a shadow suddenly appeared.
With one eye closed, Ham adjusted the focus of the telescope, and the shadow that appeared in the lens barrel became clearer.
That is a boat.
At the bow of that ship, there is a huge hook. In addition, there are many people walking on the board, and in the middle of those people, there is a big fish.
"whale?"
"They are whaling ships!"
All of a sudden, Ham came to the conclusion that he had heard about this kind of boat from the stories that Dad told him, knowing that there are a group of people in this world who like to hunt big whales.
However, these fishermen never hunted whales because they hunted them, and they could not eat them, and no one bought them.
After looking at it for a while, Ham was bored, and then he looked away again.
"Ham."
When Ham was lying on the ship's side with a bored look, a call suddenly rang out, and his father Nick was calling him: "Come and eat."
Ham and his dad walked together and asked, "Dad, how is it? Are there any fish in the net now?"
Hearing this, Nicken paused and said, "Not yet, but there will be soon."
He touched Ham's head, and his heart felt heavy.
This is the first time Ham has followed them to go fishing. If nothing is hit, it will be bad. People in the village will say that Ham is a person who is not pityed by the goddess of luck.
It's been three days since I went to sea, but they only caught a net of fish yesterday, about 500 pounds, which is not much.
But Ham didn't worry about it. He didn't have a particularly clear understanding of it, but he was bored because he didn't catch the fish.
The two came to the simple restaurant and started dinner with nine other companions on board.
After dinner, Ham played on the deck for a while, and then returned to his lounge, when it was dark.
"what!"
Ham stretched his lower limbs, then lit the kerosene lamp in front of his bed, and then he took out a picture book from the cabinet.
On the cover of the album, a picture was drawn of a fishing boat driving in a rough sea, and under this fishing boat, there was a terrifying monster gazing up above.
Ham opened the album, and the contents inside were all illustrated books of various monsters, as well as some brief text.
In fact, there is nothing good-looking, but for Ham, it still looks interesting.
There are too few books that I usually get in touch with.
"Read less at night."
Nick glanced at Ham, and after a word, went out with a veil.
"Got it, Dad."
Ham nodded at Nick, intending to watch for another twenty minutes, and then turn off the lights to sleep.
But after watching it for about ten minutes, from the outside of the window, there was suddenly a whisper of wind At first Ham did not care, but then the wind became louder and louder.
And more importantly, their fishing boat also wobbled.
"what happened?"
The first time he experienced this kind of thing made Ham feel out of his head. He got out of bed and came to the window to look out.
At this time the sky had become dark, and above their fishing boats, there were some lights shining out, illuminating the nearby sea for ten meters.
But farther away, it can't be seen.
The sky was gloomy, thick clouds of lead were piled up continuously, and the sea breeze was "screaming" across the fishing boat. With the sound of whistling, Ham saw the water under their fishing boat start Surging.
The sway of their fishing boat is precisely because of these waves.
"It is going to rain."
Ham was nervous, and the outside scene looked a bit scary, and the shaking of the fishing boat seemed to him to capsize-his heart magnified the tilt.
Obviously, there will be a storm soon.
This time they have been out for several days, but this is the first time he has experienced this kind of weather, and his heart is inevitable.
The gloomy sea surrounding it looked terrifying, and their fishing boat was in the sea, and there was no land around, leaving Ham with a sense of security.
At this time, the stories of various ship crashes that had been heard from adults' mouths suddenly poured into my mind. Most of the fishing boats in these stories were caused by storms and then capsized into the sea.
Along with these horror stories appeared in Ham's mind, there was a cold body.
Thinking like this, the panic emotion in his heart could not help but become stronger and stronger.
