The belated alarm bell rang suddenly.

The aisles were already crowded with people, and many people were bleeding from their heads as the boat shook so badly.

Hearing the alarm bells and shouts, the people in the room were in a hurry and hurriedly found life jackets and put them on.

"Let the woman and the child go first!"

Suddenly, a man's voice rang out.

Then, more men's voices responded, turning into the most touching voices in the night.

Of course, not all of them do.

"Ahh

Soon after the alarm bell was thought, a terrible scream came from a second-class room.

An obscene man who had been standing in the hallway without a life jacket rushed into the room to snatch clothes from a woman in yellow in a short skirt.

The woman in yellow is a northerner, has never been on a boat, does not know what a life jacket is, and does not know how to use it when she takes off her life jacket.

As soon as she took it off and held it in her hand, the man rushed in, grabbed it and ran.

"Rob, stop him!" the two young men in the room reacted and shouted.

The lewd man sneered in his heart, who is really a bird at this time!

Unexpectedly, as soon as he rushed out of the corridor, before he could see what was going on, he was knocked to the ground by a punch from the person guarding the door.

Two young men chased out of the room approached, holding lost life jackets in their hands.

They comforted:

"Don't be nervous!

Immediately, they helped her and her companion tie up their life jackets.

The woman in yellow choked back tears in her eyes. Their own life jackets have not yet been put on!

The two of them have been either playing with their mobile phones with headphones or sleeping since they got on the boat, and they have never known each other.

"Let's go!"

The two nodded and left the room, and the men in the corridor outside had consciously stepped aside to let them go first with a woman with a child.

When he heard the siren, Zhu Jiayuan, who was patrolling the lower deck of the passenger ship, felt at the bottom.

According to his knowledge of the route, this should be the bend of the Yangtze River. Due to the severe overload, the speed of the ship, and the strong wind and waves, the JMC was out of control when turning!

My worst fears have happened!

Crack!

Thunder and lightning shone in the sky.

The rain was heavier and heavier. The JMC is farther from the shore. Due to the flooding of the hull, the originally bright lights have long since dimmed.

Because Mrs. Bai was in the first class, close to the deck, she pulled her daughter Bai Zixuan and stood staggering with everyone.

Her bag was left in her room. The branded phone in the bag vibrated desperately.

At this time, in the Qianqiu Department Store in Jinling, thousands of miles away, a middle-aged man was walking back and forth, like an ant on a hot pot.

He muttered, "What's the matter? Why didn't anyone answer, fell asleep, and the rainstorm affected the signal?......

He pondered for a moment, and then sent a message: "Xue'er, how are you and your daughter doing?

Xue'er is Bai Zixuan's mother's name, and her name is Guo Xue'er.

But Guo Xueer naturally has no way of knowing.

When the alarm sounded, the rubber life raft on the east side of the deck had already been untied, but the wind and rain were strong and the hull was tilted, and it was not easy to board the life raft from the soft ladder.

Two minutes later, Mrs. Bai Guo Xueer led her daughter to jump into the river, and with the help of sailors, the two climbed onto the life raft.

The life raft was packed with people, all but a sailor who was nearly half a hundred years old, all women. This kind of life raft has a rated capacity of 25 people, but now no one counts it, as long as it can be squeezed up.

There are only five life rafts equipped on the Jiangling, which is far from being able to accommodate so many people on board, and Madame Bai got on board earlier, and the people behind are still pouring in from the cabin.

There was a flurry of shouts and sobs from the ship.

"Let's go!" The life raft was already full, and someone had cut the cable with a safety knife.

The life raft left the passenger ship and drifted downwind on the river.

Suddenly, the river swelled, and the life raft was like a leaf.

"Is this providence?!" muttered the sailor on the life raft, his face pale.

Yinyue later paid attention to this matter and learned that due to heavy rain in the upstream, the water level of the barrage rose rapidly, and the hydropower station opened three gates to discharge the flood!

It's just that because they braved the storm and didn't dock, they didn't know this information in advance.

Layers of huge waves hit, the hull of the Jiangling was originally tilted, and the surging river water continued to pour in, and the cabin below was soon flooded with madness.

A few minutes later, the JMC collapsed into the water, almost bottom-up.

The raft floated in the turbulent river, the people on the boat tightly clung to the ropes on the side of the raft, Guo Xue'er looked at the Jiangling in the distance, and the crowd that fell into the water like dumplings, and her heart was full of mixed feelings.

"Mom, I'm afraid!" a teenage girl whispered, hugging the waist of a middle-aged woman.

The woman grabbed the rope in both hands and held the girl to her chest.

Her face was close to the girl's, and she said, "Don't be afraid, it's okay!

The life raft drifted blindly with the wind and waves in the black case, drifting, and finally saw the lights on the shore in the distance.

"Mom, look!" everyone became excited.

"Be careful! there's a reef ahead!" said the sailor, "...... to the left."

Boom!

There was a dull sound, and the life raft hit the reef, and then suddenly a big wave came, and the life raft turned violently.

Yes!

Some people caught off guard, didn't hold on to the ropes, and fell into the water.

"Ahh......h

Bai Zixuan was too seasick before, and her hands and feet were weak, and the accident of suddenly hitting the reef made her throw her out.

"Zixuan!"

Without hesitation, a figure jumped off the life raft and swam towards a woman who was floating up and down.

Bai Zixuan couldn't swim, so she was thrown into the river and immediately choked on a few mouthfuls of water.

"Help...... Save ......"

Guo Xue'er was anxious and swam desperately towards Zixuan.

The torrential rain still didn't stop, and it seemed to blow her voice away.

Guo Xueer can swim and used to be a frequent visitor to the swimming pool. However, she had never swam in a rushing river. , in the face of such stormy waves. Even if she knows how to water, she feels extremely difficult.

At this time, she regretted it very much, because she was afraid that she would delay her studies, so she did not insist on teaching her daughter to swim.

"Zixuan!"

The rain and the river confused her vision, and Guo Xue'er tried her best to control her body and approached in the direction of Bai Zixuan's voice.

But how can the power of man compete with the power of nature?

Swimming, her hands and feet were sore and numb.

Just when she was desperate, a sampan appeared.

On the sampan stood a middle-aged woman in gray, facing the wind and rain, holding a penny, outstanding and independent.

A few years later, when Guo Xueer followed her husband to leave, she still remembered this unique figure.

It was an indelible memory of her life.

"Catch!"

The woman on the sampan raised her hand and stretched out a penny towards Guo Xue'er. Guo Xue'er desperately stretched out her hand and grabbed the penny tightly.

As soon as the woman mentioned it, she pulled Guo Xueer to the sampan.

Immediately, he bent down and pulled the sampan on the sampan of an elderly man and a young woman who had fallen into the water.

"My daughter, please save my daughter!" Guo Xue'er came back to her senses and looked at this fisherman-like woman, as if she saw a glimmer of light in the dark night, and suddenly saw hope in despair.

The woman glanced at her, was silent, and then glanced at the river. Then in the horrified eyes of everyone, he jumped into the Yangtze River.

Two minutes later, the water beside the floating sampan resounded. The middle-aged fisherwoman came out of the water with a person in her arms.

"Zixuan!"

Guo Xue'er cried out in a lost voice.

Three people on the sampan work together to pick up the two of them to the boat.

The sampan was a little crowded, and several people were next to each other, leaving a gap. Bai Zixuan was lying flat on the sampan, her face was pale, her eyes were closed, and she seemed to be no longer breathing.

"My daughter!" Guo Xue'er's hand trembled and retracted, her head lying on her back and crying.

The hissing cry echoed on the surface of the river, and the other two rescued people had solemn faces, and tears could not help but flow.

At this point, the storm is less. There was a faint roar of machinery on the river, and it was a lifeboat heading towards the scene of the incident.

Not long after, the boat docked.

Jumping off the boat one after another and stepping onto the shore, the rescued elderly men and young women all have the feeling of the aftermath of the disaster.

Guo Xue'er was still lying on Bai Zixuan's body and sobbing.

"Someone will come to pick you up soon!" said the middle-aged fisherwoman.

Immediately the penny was propped up, and the small sampan left the shore.

Why don't you guys come down?

The two of them were puzzled, and they didn't have time to shout thank you to her. The small sampan has already faced the wind and waves and is heading towards the center of the river.

Guo Xue'er straightened up, looked at the woman in front of her in a daze, and suddenly knelt on the ground in front of her.

Bang bang bang!

"Female Bodhisattva, please save my daughter! I beg you! She is the only bloodline of the Bai Qi family!" she kowtowed vigorously and begged in her mouth, "I beg you to ......"

Blood poured down her cheeks, and it was terrible.

"Alas!"

The fisherwoman sighed -

"Don't cry. I promise you!" (To be continued.) )
