Getting lost at sea is a matter of life and death. Fang Bai and Ye Wumei looked at each other, both somewhat dumbfounded.
"What should we do?"
Ye Wumei, with a worried face, said, "We have no idea how far we are from land. If we are close, after daybreak, there might be a chance to encounter a fishing boat, and we'll be rescued; but if it's too far, even if we don't drown, we'll die of thirst or hunger."
Fang Bai forced a smile and said, "The only thing to do now is to find the right direction and try to swim towards land. If we get the direction wrong... well, then we'll just have to wait to become food for fish and shrimp!"
Ye Wumei asked, "But where is the direction to land?"
Fang Bai answered, "I don't know. Little Mink, can you figure out the direction?"
In this world, sometimes animals understand nature better than humans, as well as being more familiar with it. The Lightning Mink, being a half-spirit beast with awakened intelligence, became Fang Bai's hope.
