Chapter 4 Cruise ship distress

The shaking of the hull continued, and Liu Yue hugged me tightly, and the two of them had long forgotten about the previous episode.

"There's an earthquake?" I asked.

"We're at sea, how can we have an earthquake?" Liu Yue said.

"Oh no, it's a sea monster. I said.

"Maybe it's on the rocks. Liu Yue said with a frown.

"Ah, is the ship sinking?" I said, crying.

"Crow's beak, can you be a little manly. Liu Yue said.

Before I could answer, the shaking stopped, Liu Yue quickly got up, and I also got up, it was still foggy outside the window, and the two of them ran towards the deck together.

It was still dark, and I couldn't see anything clearly when I stood on the deck.

"Listen. Liu Yue said suddenly.

"Listen to what, don't scare me. "The bit of masculinity I just took out, I was so frightened that I put it back in my pocket when Liu Yue said this.

"No, I think I hear birds. Liu Yue said.

"Scared me, I thought you heard something. I said.

"Don't you understand?" asked Liu Yue, turning her head.

As soon as Liu Yue's words fell, a strange sound came in the direction of the two of us, this time it was Liu Yue's turn to be afraid, but she reacted quickly, and immediately hid behind me, still holding on to my clothes.

I really want to tell her, don't block me, I'm afraid.

As the sound got closer, I could feel my legs starting to tremble, and I was half-open, afraid to look, but had to look.

It's near, it's coming, I'm already clenching my fists, and I'm gritting my upper and lower teeth.

"Damn. I couldn't help but blurt it out.

"What is it?" asked Liu Yue in a low voice.

"See for yourself. I said with a smile.

"Hurry up, don't scare me. Liu Yue said.

Weren't you bold just now?

"It's a bird. I said.

Isn't it, a big white bird, walking leisurely around the deck at the moment.

Liu Yue poked her head out from behind me and looked at it, then straightened up and said, "I'm scared to death." ”

"Wait a minute. I suddenly exclaimed.

My voice directly frightened Liu Yue, and Liu Yue instinctively reacted and hit me and said, "Scared me to death." ”

Looking at Liu Yue's little face that was a little red because of fright and anger, I smiled and said, "There are birds, are we on land?"

"This is an albatross, a bird that can fly thousands of kilometers long distances. Liu Yue said.

"But the boat is not moving, and there is a violent shaking just now, don't you say that it may have hit the rocks? Where are we not on the shore?" I asked.

"I think you might be right. Liu Yue said.

"Great, finally safe. I said with a smile.

"Maybe it's not safe. Liu Yue said.

"How come, how unsafe it is to go back to land, I will never go to sea again, it is too scary, I have to go back to the hotel and get some sleep. I said.

"Look over there. Liu Yue pointed in one direction and said.

I looked at it as Liu Yue pointed, it seemed to be some trees, I really didn't think it was unusual, and then I thought about it, isn't this a city?

The number of people on the deck increased one after another, and there was a lot of noise around them.

Liu Yue and I did not leave, and the deck was soon full of people, and a red sun slowly rose from the east.

The fog in front of me gradually dissipated, and I really said that it was really land, but not a city, and it looked more like an island.

The bow of the ship was facing a cliff tens of meters high, flanked by mountains and woods, and our cruise ship had run aground, and the bottom was full of black reefs, presumably with several holes in the bottom of the ship.

Seeing the situation in front of me, my mind buzzed all at once, and the passengers on the ship pulled the staff and quarreled, while I just stood in place.

I'm not in the mood to argue, I just want to know what this place is and how to get out of this place.

There was a commotion on the deck, and seeing that the passengers were about to riot, the captain finally intervened, and after some pacification, everyone gathered in the dining room.

"The captain said let's not be afraid, we just ran aground, he will arrange for personnel to repair it as soon as possible, and we can leave when the tide is high. Liu Yue said to me.

"Hurry up and contact to the rescue, what are you talking this nonsense for. Ma Gongzi said.

The staff next to the captain translated to the captain, and the captain said a lot to everyone.

"The captain said he would contact the rescue and let us stay on board with peace of mind. Liu Yue said.

"He said so much that it translates to just one sentence?" I asked.

"I'm to be concise. Liu Yue said.

Under the captain's reassurance, everyone's anger finally subsided, mainly because the captain arranged for the kitchen to provide everyone with a free meal.

Everyone ate happily, but I always felt that it was not that simple.

Captain's bedroom.

"Captain, I just sent someone to inspect it, and the hull is so badly damaged that it's almost impossible to repair it. The first mate said.

"What about communications?" asked the captain.

"All the communications are out of order, not even the satellite phones. The first mate said.

"Can you determine where we are?" asked the captain.

"I've looked at the map many times and this place is not on the map at all. The first mate said.

After a long time, the captain lowered his hands, threw the map aside, and said in annoyance: "God, how can this be." ”

"Captain, we only have enough food for three days. The first mate said.

"We must not leak this news and find a way to repair the hull. The captain said.

"Yes. The first mate said and withdrew.

I sat in my room, wondering what was wrong, when there was a sudden noise outside the door.

Liu Yue happened to be outside, and I hurriedly walked over to Liu Yue, because there were two foreigners, a man and a woman, who were arguing with the staff, and they were carrying a big bag.

Without waiting for me to ask, Liu Yue said directly: "The two of them are husband and wife, they like outdoor sports, and they want to explore the island." ”

"It's bold. I said.

Seeing that the two sides were arguing more and more fiercely, the captain actually appeared, and the captain and the staff said something, and said a few words to the foreign couple.

The foreign couple smiled and walked towards the deck.

"The captain agreed to let them out, but they had to be safe and come back before dark. Liu Yue said.

The commotion attracted everyone's attention, and everyone followed, watching the foreign couple get off the boat and walk deeper into the woods.

This incident did not affect everyone, everyone should still eat and drink, until the foreign couple did not return in the evening, and everyone began to talk.

The next day, the foreign couple still did not return, and the crew frequently appeared in various parts of the ship, and some staff members went outside several times, saying that it was to check the damage to the hull.

That afternoon, there was significantly less food on the table, and the food combinations were simple.

Although I felt a little uncomfortable, I didn't say anything, just after two bites, Ma Gongzi and Liu Gongzi on the side actually knocked the food to the ground at the same time.

Everyone in the dining room looked sideways, this time the captain came forward directly, the two pulled the captain chatter, and many people stood up one after another.

Ma Gongzi and Liu Gongzi dislike the food is unpalatable, I don't need a translator, but what did the captain say?

I naturally turned my head to look at Liu Yue.

"The captain said we had to compress food and drinking water to get a longer wait for rescue. Liu Yue said.

"yes, there must not be much food and water on this cruise. I said.

"I don't think help will come. Ling Han, who had never spoken, said.

Ma Gongzi Liu Gongzi is still like a dream, and the captain and the staff are arguing, and the three of us naturally get together.

"Why do you say that?" asked Liu Yue and I in unison.

"There was a problem with navigation when the cruise ship stopped for the first time, and if it was just a navigation problem, then you should have called for help. Ling Han said.

"You mean there's a problem with the communication, too?" I asked.

"That's for sure, the captain is nothing more than comforting everyone now. Ling Han said.

After Ling Han's words were finished, the three of us fell into deep thought at the same time, I looked at the remaining half of the bread on the plate, I carefully put it in my pocket, and drank the remaining half of the bottle of water with me.

Ling Han and Liu Yue saw all this in their eyes, and also put away the bread and water as I did.

I glanced at the crowd, and those who came forward to reason with the captain did not count, and those who were still eating did not realize the seriousness of the problem at all, and still ate and drank.
