When Little Bear and the others arrived, they saw that the receding tide was rising again.
Frowning, Tao Sheng told his friends not to wander around. Then, he ran over to look for the elders standing not far away.
When Little Bear saw this, he quickly ran over and heard Tao Sheng ask an old grandpa, "Grandpa Chun, why is the tide receding so late today?"
Smiling, Grandpa Chun replied, "Silly boy, the ebb and flow of the tide are different every day. The wind has been stable recently, so it looks about the same. However, the timing is actually a little different every day. Today, the wind and waves are strong, so the tide that should have ebbed has risen a little more."
