Chapter 1200: Say goodbye without saying goodbye
"Okay, Immortal ......," Puyol said, then asked a little nervously, "...... Didn't you say there was a satellite phone?"
Xia Ruofei said casually: "The solar battery of the satellite phone is a little problematic, I didn't charge it today, I'll try it again tomorrow when the sun comes out." Use this firework for help tonight, maybe a ship in the nearby sea will pass by and see it......"
"Okay, okay, I understand......" Puyol said quickly.
"Okay, let's go see Little John!" Xia Ruofei said, "Everyone should hurry up and rest tonight, and arrange for one person to take turns on duty." ”
"Yes!" Puyol said.
He quickly arranged for everyone to take turns to be on duty at night, that is, he and the three survivors each had three hours - even if he borrowed a few guts, he didn't dare to arrange Xia Ruofei to be on duty.
After the arrangement, Pujol said: "Immortal, you can rest in the tent......!
Xia Ruofei shook his head and said, "Little John is a little scared, you can take him to sleep in a tent! I don't need ......."
With that, he walked directly to the front of the raft and sat down casually.
Seeing this, Puyol didn't dare to persuade more, so he gave each of the three survivors a signal fireworks, and asked them to fire a fireworks signal from each class during the night shift.
Then he put the remaining two in the tent and got into it himself.
As the leader of the survivors, Puyol naturally has certain preferential treatment, he has arranged for himself to be the last shift, and now he can lie down and sleep.
In the same way, the first shift was relatively able to have a complete sleep, so it was arranged for David, who had the weakest physique.
The remaining two survivors also found a relatively dry place at the end of the raft to lie down and rest.
The raft was five or six meters wide, and the few of them were relatively loose on the raft.
David sat in the middle of the raft and began the first shift.
In fact, arrange people on duty, mainly for fear of extreme weather or sharks or the like, if everyone is asleep, it is likely to die in a daze, although it is very difficult to escape in the vast sea, but there is a person on duty at least the first time to find the danger.
Xia Ruofei saw David be the first to pull out the cable of the fireworks, and only heard the three "bang bang" sounds, and the three red signals flew into the sky with a roar, illuminating the night sky for a while.
There is no shelter on this sea, such signal flares can be seen from a long distance, and basically this kind of distress signal is a distress signal, if you really want to see it again, you will definitely come to check.
After the flare is launched, the fireworks are still spraying white sparks, and if it is daytime, you can see a large amount of orange-red smoke, and if a helicopter comes to check it, you can find the target at once.
In fact, this kind of firework is similar to the fireworks set off during the Spring Festival, but the production is more sophisticated than the fireworks, the quality is good, and the time of the fireworks is much longer than that of ordinary fireworks, especially the spray smoke, which can last for a long time.
Xia Ruofei lay down at the front of the raft, with a backpack on his head, looking at the starry sky, feeling the rhythm of the raft swaying with the waves, and slowly fell asleep.
This night, every person on duty would launch a firework for help, so it would bang every three or four hours, and Xia Ruofei didn't sleep well.
After Puyol took over and set off the fireworks for help, Xia Ruofei saw that the sky was about to dawn, so he simply sat up.
He sat on the improvised deck and groaned, and had been firing firework for help all night, but no ship appeared.
It is true that it is close to the traditional shipping lanes, but the sea is so wide that the ships that run the sea all year round may not see other ships at sea every day, and it is normal for there to be no ships passing by in this area for several days.
If no ship has been found, the only way to call for help is to use a satellite phone.
Although there are still a lot of fireworks in his space for help, he can't always take this thing out of his backpack! The backpack is very large, but it can't have unlimited capacity!
Xia Ruofei decided to observe for another day today, and if it really didn't work, then ask for help through the satellite Internet first.
At this moment, Xia Ruofei seemed to hear the sound of "Tututu" coming from a distance.
The sound is very faint, and there is the sound of the waves next to it, so it feels a little faint, and it is not very real.
He turned his head again to see that the three survivors were all sleeping, and Puyol was sitting by the tent doing nothing, apparently none of them had heard the sound.
Xia Ruofei also quickly came to his senses - his hearing was much better than that of ordinary people, and now the sounds he heard were all if there were no sounds, then Pujol They would definitely not be able to hear them at all.
Xia Ruofei pricked up his ears to identify it carefully, and found that the sound was coming from the southeast direction, and the sound seemed to be getting closer and closer.
He listened intently for a while.
It's the sound of a helicopter engine!
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but stand up all of a sudden, and shouted: "Puyol! Hurry! Signal fireworks! Put another one right away!"
Puyol said with a blank face: "Immortal, just finished a while!"
"Did you hear the sound of the helicopter engine?" Xia Ruofei asked, "It must be a big ship or a warship! They sent a plane to check when they saw the signal for help! Quickly set off the signal flare! Otherwise, the helicopter would not be able to see anything for a while and turned back!"
In this vast sea, the range of helicopters will definitely not be able to reach these sea areas, and the helicopters that can appear must be carrier-based helicopters, either large cruise ships with complete facilities, or warships.
In either case, Puyol's chances of being rescued have increased dramatically.
Puyol was also excited when he heard this, although he still didn't hear any sound, but he was convinced of Xia Ruofei's words, and hurriedly went into the tent to rummage through the remaining help-signal fireworks.
Puyol gripped the flare in his hand and pulled it hard with his right hand.
With a snort, sparks flickered, followed by three "bang-bang-bang" sounds, and three signal flares rose into the air.
The firelight illuminated Puyol's expectant face.
Soon the helicopter engine was getting louder and louder, and this time even Puyol and the three survivors could hear it - apparently the pilot of the helicopter had also seen the fireworks, so instead of searching for it, it flew straight in this direction.
After a short while, the flashing anti-collision lights on the helicopter were already in view, and the sound of the plane's engine was getting louder and louder.
Puyol and the three survivors couldn't help but shout for help from the raft, the three survivors waved their hands wildly, and Puyol kept shaking the flare stick in his hand that was still spewing sparks.
Only Xia Ruofei sat quietly on the simple deck, and went through it in his mind again - he has always been in a state of changing appearance, and the items of civilized society such as compressed biscuits, mineral water, instant noodles, etc., are all in his backpack, except for the tent for Little John, there is nothing from modern civilized society.
And that tent is a very popular camping tent he bought on the Internet, and the Tmall agency alone sells hundreds of them every month, and it is impossible to find out his identity through this tent.
In other words, you can "disappear" at any time.
Of course, Xia Ruofei did not rush into the water, but waited with Puyol and others.
After all, it's just a helicopter coming over now, and it's hard to say whether the helicopter pilot has found them, Xia Ruofei won't leave until Puyol is confirmed that they can be rescued.
At this time, the sun has just risen over the sea.
A red helicopter was getting closer and closer to the morning glow, and Puyol and the others were already so excited that they burst into tears.
The helicopter came to the top of the raft and flew around a few times, considering that the air flow caused by the propeller could easily overturn the raft, so the altitude of the helicopter did not drop too low.
Soon, the helicopter dropped a positioning buoy, and the pilot reached out and waved at Puyol and the others, and then left.
These buoys will constantly send position signals to guide the boat around.
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Puyol, don't worry! Soon the rescue ship will appear! You are saved!"
"Hmm......" Puyol choked up, "thank you, Immortal...... Thank you ......."
David and several other survivors also hugged excitedly.
After being on a desert island for so many years, and not long ago, they experienced that nightmarish night, and almost became food for the pythons, these people are the real aftermath of the catastrophe!
Xia Ruofei said: "Puyol, after you are rescued, you have to know what to say and what not to say...... If you don't want to be guinea pigs, don't talk about that mysterious island. ”
Puyol immediately said: "I understand...... I understand...... Immortals, but the identities of our people can be checked, we were obviously shipwrecked in the Atlantic, and now we have appeared in the Indian Ocean, this is not easy to explain......"
Xia Ruofei thought for a while and said: "Then you say that you floated to a nameless island with the lifeboat, some specific conditions of this island, especially the situation of the waterhole, and you must not say anything about eating that fruit, otherwise you will probably be sliced and studied as a guinea pig......"
Puyol couldn't help but shudder, and hurriedly said, "I'm definitely not going to say it...... I'm the only one who knows about it, as long as I don't say it. I'll tell David about that python, and it's best not to mention it, because it's as thick as a bucket and no one will believe it! Maybe they think we've been on a desert island for too long and have mental problems!"
Xia Ruofei nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's good that you understand! In short, if you don't talk much, it's not easy to have problems." As for the fact that you come out a few years after entering a small island and then come out in the Indian Ocean, it is at best a mysterious island, and there is no danger to you personally. ”
"Yes yes, you're right...... Puyol said quickly.
Xia Ruofei then said: "Also, about my situation......"
"Understood!" Pujol hurriedly said, "Immortal, we won't talk too much, don't worry......"
Xia Ruofei smiled faintly and said: "You don't have much influence on me, but in order to reduce some trouble for yourself, you'd better treat it as if you don't have me, and you can unify your voice with David and the others in a while." ”
Puyol showed a puzzled look and said, "Immortal, but after the rescue ship arrives in a while, you ......"
Xia Ruofei smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry about this, you better emphasize it to David and the others first!"
He didn't tell Puyol that he would leave directly after a while, and Puyol naturally didn't expect that someone would jump directly into the sea in such a vast sea, and he didn't even see the faces of the rescuers, so Pujol didn't think much about it, and hurriedly followed Xia Ruofei's instructions to find David and the other three survivors, and began to speak in a unified voice.
Xia Ruofei went to the tent entrance on the simple deck and took a look.
Little John slept soundly, and it was estimated that the raft was drifting with the waves on the sea, a bit like a cradle, and the little one was at sea for a day and a night, and most of the time he slept without crying at all.
Xia Ruofei reached out and touched Little John's little face, and said with a smile: "Little guy, we're going to say goodbye in a while...... I hope that if I have a fate in the future, I can really see you again......"
Xia Ruofei sat on the raft with Puyol and the others, and after waiting for almost an hour, a ship finally appeared on the sea level in the distance......
Although they already knew that they had been rescued when they saw the helicopter, when they really saw the rescue ship coming, Puyol and the others still couldn't help jumping up excitedly, and they waved the clothes they had just taken off in their hands while jumping.
The steamer stopped a few dozen meters away from the raft, then lowered a lifeboat and rowed in the direction of the raft.
Puyol They stood on the raft and looked forward to it, no one noticed Xia Ruofei on the bow of the boat waved lightly, and the backpack disappeared out of thin air, and then as soon as he turned over in the bow of the boat, he silently dived into the seawater......
Because of the supplies and tents on the improvised deck, no one on the lifeboat or even on the cruise ship saw Xia Ruo when he flew into the water.
After waving his arms for a while, Pujol turned back excitedly and said, "Immortal, we finally have ...... Huh, Lord Immortal, God ......."
Seeing this, the survivors also turned their heads and found that the bow of the ship was empty.
Puyol and David glanced at each other, and quickly recovered from the shock, Puyol looked at the lifeboat that was getting closer and closer, and said in a low voice: "Listen, the fairy must not want to see these rescuers, I just told you to remember, never mention the fairy, otherwise we can't say it clearly, and it will bring endless trouble......"
David and the others hurriedly nodded in agreement.
Regarding Xia Ruofei's safety, Puyol and the others, who had seen so many of his magical methods, were not at all worried, but they were more or less stunned when they saw Xia Ruofei leave so quietly......
Xia Ruofei didn't actually go far, after he dived into the seawater, he immediately summoned the spirit picture scroll, and then stuffed the spirit picture scroll into a gap under the simple deck of the raft.
It was all covered with planks, and it was impossible to see from the sea.
Xia Ruofei entered the space with a thought, and then immediately released his spiritual power, paying attention to the situation on the sea......
