Chapter 679: The Great Wave Comes
The speedboat was more than a kilometer away from the airport island, and Han Xuan turned his back to the direction he came, and when he saw that his father's face was shining, and he was full of shocked expressions, he couldn't help but look back. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
I saw that the sea was on fire, and it was spreading out at a frantic speed.
In just a few seconds, the sea surface floating with aviation fuel was all burning!
There is little fuel on the periphery, and in some places there is only a thin layer of floating, which is gone after a burst of fire.
The closer you get to the shore, the more intense the fire becomes, and if you want to say that the place with the most aviation fuel is, of course, near the Airbus A330.
I saw the plane roasting on the fire, like a turkey in an oven.
Han Xuan's muscles were tense, his pores were erected, and he was so nervous that he couldn't speak!
Turning his head, he found that the pilot of the speedboat had also stopped to watch the excitement, and Han Xuan waved his fist and shouted in Dhivehi: "Run! The tsunami is coming! That plane is going to explode!!"
The Maldivian soldier who drove the speedboat didn't think about it that much just now, but he saw that it could catch fire in the sea and found it funny.
Hearing Han Xuan speak at this time, a thought first popped into his mind: "His Dhivehi language is so standard, and the children of rich families are really smart, probably because they eat steak every day, so they will be like this......"
Then I think about the meaning of this sentence.
The expression on his dark face was instantly stunned, and then when he looked at the plane, his pupils suddenly constricted, and he hurriedly started the speedboat, intending to escape from this dangerous place.
Having lived on the island for more than a dozen generations, there is no Maldivian who does not know the power of the tsunami!
Therefore, when people are unlucky, they will stuff their teeth when they drink cold water.
Just looking at the shape, this speedboat is believed to be an antique from the World War II period in the museum, and at such a critical moment, it turned off!
The people on the rubber boat were collectively dumbfounded, Nima was in a hurry, and he couldn't wait to help him launch it himself!
Han Xuan turned around again, and the people who stayed on the airport island were hiding in the terminal.
Due to damage to the runway, several batches of passengers were sent away due to the fact that the runway had to be taken by ship to India until it was repaired.
Most of the people who stayed there were Indians who had escaped and were picked up by helicopters, and some were airport staff.
With some Maldivian soldiers and some foreign tourists who wanted to take pictures and sell them back to magazines, the total number was less than 200.
There are also several small and uninhabited islands between Airport Island and Malé, the capital of the Maldives.
Due to the fact that the sea is submerged at high tide and there is an airport nearby, the planes are too noisy and uninhabited.
Now the closest island to Han Xuan and them is only more than 400 meters away, just in front of them, but they encountered such a strange thing as the engine turned off, so that Han Qianshan, who has always had a peaceful personality, couldn't help but scold his mother!
The fish in the sea are aware of the change in the temperature of the sea, and the large fish have fled.
There is a sunfish that rarely exceeds five meters in length, and it is actually swimming desperately close to the water, but due to the funny body structure, the speed is not very fast.
In normal times, Han Xuan might still be close to it, but there is a "super bomb" a kilometer away.
The Airbus A330 is a large long-haul passenger aircraft, considering the distance between the Maldives and India, this plane will fly from India, and the fuel will only be used a little, and it may have about 80% of the fuel left.
It's better to hide inside a building, the explosion from jet fuel is far less powerful than gunpowder, and a few walls can withstand a large part of it.
But now they are at sea, just like a future earthquake under the sea, which will trigger a tsunami half the world.
With thrust, the sea will turn into wild horses, which is even more dangerous here than on Airport Island!
found that the driver of the speedboat suddenly took off his clothes and jumped into the water, and swam to the shore alone, Han Xuan's eyes looked like eating flies, which showed that the speedboat could not start at all.
He didn't know that it was tomorrow's lunch, and the disaster it had caused, and he secretly cursed a fool for not having a long brain, and igniting the fuel in the sea.
Less than a minute has passed since the fire first started, and the fire is now concentrated near the plane, and the thin layer of fuel oil on the surrounding sea surface has burned out.
The interior materials of the Airbus A330 and the passengers' luggage were burned, and thick black smoke rose straight into the sky where the stars and moon were hung.
A plane passed over their heads, and they should have seen the lights of the sea, and Han Xuan expected the pilot to notify the dilapidated warship or fishing boat to pick it up.
Han Qianshan asked if he could swim directly to the island, this suggestion was rejected by Gabriel shaking his head, and he quickly said: "No, we are not wearing life jackets, in case the big waves come at that time, it will be more dangerous if there is nothing to catch."
I'll cut this damn rope and row it together, Owen, George, Gardjanon, you each find someone to protect.
Jason, you have wounds on your body, beware of the smell of blood attracting sharks. ”
Sitting in the dinghy and paddling ashore, Gabriel laboriously plunged the oar into the sea, flicked it back, and muttered, "When I get ashore, I'm going to beat the guy who ran away, and which of you can't swim?"
"I ...... No. ”
Faced with this situation, Isabelli finally panicked a little, and as soon as she finished speaking, Ramirez continued: "I will only be a little. ”
Anya hugged Han Xuan's arm and affirmed: "I will, but I haven't swam in the sea." ”
"It's the same as at the pool, but it could be a little more relaxed. ”
Han Xuan was afraid of her hand and comforted, staring at the embarrassed mother who didn't speak, and was very speechless in his heart.
There are lakes, rivers, and seas at home, and there are so many swimming pools, but she just can't swim.
Only then did I know how important it is to master one more survival skill.
The circular rubber boat did not move forward quickly, and despite the efforts of the rowers, it moved forward without hurry, only about one meter at a time.
Father Han turned his head when rowing, looked at the fat Ding with a blank face, and couldn't say anything about throwing these animals down and speeding up.
After getting along for such a long time, he has long been like a family, he wiped the sweat from his head and continued to paddle forward.
Looking into the distance, Han Xuan found that on the shore of the airport island, only the plane was still burning, and the brand-new appearance became black at the moment, and it was only a matter of time before it burned to the fuel tank.
He said to Anya, Isabelle, and Ramirez: "May God, the Jade Emperor, and the Buddha bless us."
If there is a swell, remember to hold on to the rope next to the dinghy, don't rush and don't let go. ”
Han Xuan looked at Pooh and Fat Ding, these two are veteran swimmers, Obama and Snoopy can also swim, but they are not at ease with McDull, donkeys can swim, but McDull has never swam.
Pulling the rope and pulling the rubber boat over, he motioned McDull to jump onto his boat, cut the rope, and tied it to McDull's abdomen, and the other end to his waist.
As soon as I got it done, there was a muffled sound in the distance, as if something had exploded.
A few seconds later, a large flame burst into the sky, and then explosions were heard one after another, and the wreckage of the plane was carried into the air, falling and smashing into the sea, making a huge splash!
The calm sea ripples, and there is a white line, surging from afar!
Big waves are about to hit the three small rubber boats.
There were still more than 200 meters from the shore, and all the people on the boat grabbed the ropes and lay down in the rubber boats.
When Han Xuan lay down, he grabbed the rope tied to McDull and shouted to the animals on the other rubber boat: "Don't be nervous, lie down and bite the rope!"
Swim to that island later, whoever arrives first, whatever you want to eat in a month, do you hear?!"
Fat Ding and Snoopy are not clear about what happened, but they both know the word "eat".
Thinking that he was playing a game, he lowered his head one after another and bit the rope next to the rubber boat.
Pooh slapped his chest triumphantly, whining, and Han Xuan understood what it meant: honey.
Grinning, he saw the approaching waves, which were expected to be more than four meters high, lower than expected, and as long as he didn't get stunned by it, he should be fine.
In Dhivehi, which no one could understand, he said to himself: "Fuck you, I've hurt others for a year, and it's finally my turn."
It seems that I am indeed going to find a wizard to exorcise evil spirits, which is also too unlucky.
No, let's go to the temple to burn incense first, and Brother Monkey will save me ......" (to be continued.) )
