Three days later, the wind was gentle and the sun was beautiful, and the sky was clear.
On the shore of the island, on a wooden boat with a very strange shape, stood a young man with his upper body bare. He was quite handsome, and there was a hint of excitement in his bright eyes under his black hair.
Su Poman tightened every tied piece of wood to make sure it was secure enough, then loosened the vines tied to the boulder on the shore, and rowed hard with a not-so-straight 'paddle' in his hand. , this strange ship left the shore with a "swipe", bringing up layers of blue waves.
"Goodbye, parents, I will sail away tonight..."
Su Poman hummed a tune, waving his hands constantly, and the oars slapped the sea from time to time. The slowly blowing sea breeze made him feel extremely comfortable.
The days of drifting on the sea are boring. I chop the waves in the sun every day, and lie on the wooden boat and follow the waves in the middle of the night.
Time passed and Su Poman had been drifting on the sea for more than a month. The strange ship seemed to have reached the end of its service life. The vines were soaked in seawater and became soft, and they would split if they were torn lightly.
At this time, Su Po had been exposed to the sun for half a month. His body was stronger, his blood and energy were extremely strong, and his eyes were shining with energy from time to time.
Although the wooden boat under him was about to disperse, he had already seen the coastline. Although it was still half a day away, as long as he confirmed the direction, Su Poman believed that he could swim there even if he had to swim.
With the goal in mind, Su Poman couldn't wait any longer. He no longer wanted to paddle forward slowly, so he simply slapped it hard with his palm. The wooden boat under him immediately disintegrated, and thick pieces of wood scattered in all directions.
Su Poman grabbed one of the pieces of wood in his hand and exerted force on his legs. Waves splashed behind him, like a high-power propeller, and he rushed towards the coast at a speed comparable to that of a swimming fish.
----------------------------------------
In the evening, the burning clouds on the horizon made the sky red. There was a large silver beach near the rock wall of the mountain. On the beach stood several children wearing coarse linen clothes and going to the sea. Each of them had a bag tied to their body. Picking up seafood washed up by the waves on the beach.
At this time, there was a sudden "crash" sound in the waves offshore, and a shirtless young man emerged from the water. His muscular lines shone under the sunset, so much so that one of the girls was shy. Covered his eyes.
"Finally arrived at the shore..."
Su Poman wiped the seawater from his face and walked towards the shore step by step. His body was a little tired, but when he saw the long-lost land, he felt at ease in his heart and the corners of his mouth could not help but raise slightly.
After seeing several children wearing weird costumes, Su Poman had a smile on his face that he thought was very kind, and asked: "Children, do you know where this place is?"
The children looked at each other in confusion, and then one of them said: "%¥@#%?"
Several children were chattering for a while, and the tone of their speech was very similar to the Chinese language, but they couldn't understand it.
When Su Poman heard it, he knew it was broken and he couldn't understand the language.
He has a headache, which is a big problem. I dare him to learn the local language again.
He smiled awkwardly, left the beach, and walked along a path.
As they walked, villages began to appear in front of them, and the sounds of crowing cocks and dogs gradually entered his ears. Su Poman felt very familiar looking at the fenced houses, small bridges and flowing water in front of him.
The style is very similar to that of ancient Chinese villages, but the details are slightly different.
"There are no wires or lights. It doesn't look like a modern society..." Su Poman secretly speculated. When he walked into the village, smoke came out of the chimneys of each house, and the local dogs had been having fun outside all day. They also went home and waited for their masters to feed them.
The appearance of a foreigner will undoubtedly arouse the vigilance of the villagers. After communication failed, an old man who seemed to be highly respected started talking with several villagers.
"This boy is quite strong, but unfortunately, he is deaf and mute. I don't know where he came from! I hope he is not some sneaky person."
"Yes, it looks like he doesn't understand or speak, but..."
Although Su Poman wanted to communicate with many villagers, he couldn't understand the language, so he could only keep laughing and trying to look honest.
A kind-hearted old woman gave him a linen shirt and two things that looked like wild vegetable balls, which should be a local delicacy.
Su Poman did not refuse, put on a linen shirt, took the wild vegetable dumpling, and smiled at the old woman and held his hand in his hand.
"This young man doesn't look stupid. He also knows etiquette. It's a pity that he can't speak. Otherwise, he could still talk to the unmarried girls in our village. He looks very strong..." the old woman said. Hua touched Su Poman's arm, and then smiled with satisfaction.
At this moment, not knowing what the leading old men were talking about, they called over a black-faced man. After saying a few words to him, the man walked directly towards Su Poman.
Su Poman was a little confused, but after seeing his actions, he understood what he meant. The man waved to him and asked him to follow him somewhere.
Although Su Poman couldn't understand what the man was talking about, the black-faced man smiled and spoke with an ancient accent. Su Poman guessed that he was introducing the situation of the village.
The two walked in tandem. The black-faced man looked back from time to time to see Su Poman's reaction. After seeing that he remained in a dazed state, he gave up talking and led him to walk quickly.
Not long after, the two came to a yard full of weeds, and the house looked a little dilapidated.
The black-faced man pushed open the closed wooden door, came to the yard, and motioned for Su Poman to follow him.
This small courtyard is not big. In addition to weeds, there is a jujube tree growing in the center of the courtyard. There is an ancient well pressed by stone slabs near the courtyard wall. The rotating shaft used to lift water on the ancient well has been damaged. , was casually thrown next to the ancient well.
To the north of the yard are two bungalows connected together. The walls are made of black mud and stone, with a plant similar to an ivy climbing on it. Occasionally, the sea breeze blows from afar, making it explore. The branches and leaves in the air sway slightly.
The dark-faced man opened the door, and a musty smell immediately hit his nostrils. Because it was evening, the light was very dark, and the room was pitch dark. However, with Su Poman's super eyesight, he could clearly see the situation in the room. .
There are dense spider webs inside, and green fungi have grown in the corners of the walls because they have not been exposed to sunlight. The furnishings are very simple, with only a square table and two wooden chairs, one of which is broken. There is a stone slab near the east wall. There was nothing on the bed, just a layer of dust.
The dark-faced man frowned and brushed away the spider silk that fell in front of his eyes. He came to the table and took out a thumb-sized bamboo tube from his arms. After gently pulling off the lid, he blew hard and sparks appeared.
The man put the fire stick to the candlestick standing on the table. After a while, the big flame gradually burned, became bigger and stronger, and a faint scent of pine filled the air, and the whole room became brighter. .
The dark-faced man silently helped him clean the room quickly, and even went out and brought back a bedding that looked like it had been repaired many times and was full of patches.
Su Poman felt a slight warmth in his heart, feeling the simplicity and kindness of the villagers here. Although he couldn't express it in words, the eyes he looked at the black-faced man became softer and no longer so harsh.
After the black-faced man finished, he smiled at Su Poman and nodded before leaving. Su Poman was the only one left in the yard.
The huge moon hung in the dark sky, and the stars were dotted. Except for the occasional dog barking, other sounds gradually became inaudible.
Su Poman moved out the chair and sat under the jujube tree in the yard, looking up at the moon, lost in thought.
The excitement of just traveling through time has subsided, and he is a little homesick, missing his family on Blue Star.
"I don't know if I will ever have the chance to go back and see..."
Su Poman said to himself, looking a little sad.
He slumped down and leaned his head on the back of the wooden chair. He looked at the huge moon like a wheel with half-squinted eyes, and slowly fell asleep.
