When he finally caught a big fish, he spent two days and two nights to kill it. On the way back, he was suddenly attacked by a shark. After a day and night of fighting, only the skeleton of the fish remained. But the old man did not lose hope and confidence. After resting, he prepared to go out to sea again...
