Chapter 12: Flares appear
I killed the two tarpon that attacked me, and I was afraid that other tarpon would come to my door, so I didn't dare to stay in the water for long, so I immediately pulled out of the water.
When I came out of the water, I found that the lifeboat had been four or five meters away from me, and it should have been pushed away by the waves caused by the water when I fell into the water just now.
Su Wu held the wooden oar in his hand and rowed the boat around, but he couldn't row away.
It turned out that she didn't know how to row at all, and the wooden oar was very cumbersome to her, and the more anxious she was, the more her work was in vain.
Seeing her panicked, desperate but lonely and helpless little appearance, my heart couldn't help but hurt.
Of course I can't wait here for her to row over, or by the time she learns to row, I'll be gone.
I threw off my arms and swam quickly. Then let Su Wu on the boat give him a hand, and finally climbed up.
As soon as I got on the boat, Su Wu threw the wooden oars in his hand and threw them directly into my arms, and began to cry.
This battle made me a little at a loss, and I patted her on the shoulder lightly and said, "What's the matter, I'm not doing well." ”
Su Wu choked up: "Just now...... You were worried about me just now. I thought, I thought you ......"
I smiled: "What do you think I'm going to be eaten by fish?"
Su Wu saw that I didn't care, and snorted angrily: "Death Lele, it's not that you don't know how much I need you now." ”
She was angry and angry, but she buried her head in my chest and refused to leave. After she eased her emotions, I finally pushed her away: "Okay, my sister Su, don't be so moved by me first." Let me row the boat a little farther away and get rid of these ass completely. ”
"Hmm!" Su Wu answered obediently, and then sat back in the boat.
I sat at the stern of the boat, rowing the boat for a while, while staring at Su Wu opposite.
Su Wu soon noticed that I was looking at her, and her eyes were very strange, so she couldn't help touching her face and said, "What are you looking at, is there something on my face?"
I shook my head, "No." I'm just thinking, Sister Su, will you be too moved by me, and then fall in love with me. ”
Su Wu blushed: "You want to be beautiful, but you won't." ”
I said: "That's right, Sister Su is a big star admired by thousands of people, how can she look down on a little dick like me." ”
Su Wu's face was flat, and he snorted angrily: "Death Lele, you are making fun of me." Where do I look like a star now, I'm just a useless person now, someone who needs to be taken care of. Also, he's a disgusting person. ”
I said, "I don't dislike you." ”
Su Wu raised his face: "Really?"
I said, "Not really, I'm actually very happy to meet you." Otherwise, if I was floating alone on the sea in a dinghy, I would have to go crazy, but fortunately I had someone to talk to me, at least so that life could pass a little faster. ”
Su Wu smiled slightly: "Hearing you say this, I still have a little use." ”
But soon he was disappointed again: "But, is it useful for me to only talk to you?" ”
I hurriedly said, "More than that. Sister Su, you can still sleep with you. ”
Su Wu's face turned again: "Death Lele, you took advantage of me again!"
I immediately realized that there was an ambiguity in the word 'sleeping together', so I explained, "I mean, you can stay with me and hug each other for warmth." Really, this is very useful, if I were alone, the night at sea would be so cold, I would have frozen to death, and it is because of you that I survived. Therefore, the two of us have a mutually beneficial and symbiotic relationship, and no one can do without anyone. ”
At the mention of hugging for warmth, Su Wu's face turned red again. In the past two nights, in order to survive, the two of us have done something beyond the normal relationship between men and women, not only hugging each other naked, especially last night, I slept all night holding her chest. When I woke up in the morning, she broke my hand and broke it open, and I was napping at the time.
was disturbed by the man-eating tarpon, and the day was almost over.
It was getting dark that evening.
I got some raw fish to eat, and then snuggled up with Su Wu, just about to start resting as usual.
Suddenly, a bright light shot from the sky, hanging high in the air, and it did not fall for a long time, illuminating half of the sky.
Su Wu, who was lying in my arms, hurriedly pointed to the bright light and said, "Look, someone is setting off fireworks!"
When I saw that bright light, my spirit was already shocked, but when I heard Su Wu's words, I couldn't help laughing: "Fool, is that a signal flare!"
Su Wu obviously didn't know this thing: "Signal flares, not fireworks, no wonder they hang in the air." ”
I nodded, "Yes." This proves that there are people over there, go, let's go over and meet them. ”
It's been three days, I've been drifting at sea for three days, and I'm very excited to finally see the same kind of signal again.
Su Wu also became extremely excited: "Could it be that the rescue team is coming and showing us the way?"
I thought about it for a moment and said, "It's a possibility." But it is more likely that it is a signal from our fellow survivors. Isn't there supposed to be a flare on our lifeboat, why can't I find it? Did you take it out and use it before?"
Su Wu shook her head, indicating that she didn't know, and said that she hadn't seen her companion use it.
On the horizon, the flare hovered for a moment, and finally went out.
And I've stretched out the wooden paddle and rowed quite a bit in that direction.
As soon as the signal flare went out, Su Wu became anxious: "Oh no, the signal flare is gone, it's so dark, I can't see it at all, if we draw like this, it won't take long for us to deviate from the direction, and then we will be far away from them." ”
I comforted her and said, "Don't worry. ”
I pointed to the sky and said, "Don't you see that bright star, I have already noticed just now, the flare is hanging directly below this star, now we just need to walk towards this star, the direction will definitely not be wrong." ”
Su Wu praised: "Is this okay?, then you really deserve to be a little expert in survival in the wild, you can borrow anything." ”
In fact, this is why I chose to leave overnight. Because at night, I can borrow the stars as a reference. But in the daytime, it will not work, there are no stars in the daytime, there is no compass and no other reference, you can't find the right direction. Maybe you're going east, but you're walking and you're turning around and heading west, and you don't realize it.
