Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

The rain was heavy and the waves were surging, and the sea was foggy.

At this moment, suddenly, there was a loud "tom" sound in front, and the hull of the ship shook violently in an instant, and several people in the lounge couldn't control their bodies, lost their balance and threw themselves on the bulkhead in front of them.

Suddenly there was a lot of screaming, and there was a mess.

Jiang Yichen's reaction was quite fast, and he quickly reached out and grabbed the back of the bench so that he didn't fall.

"Hit the ship!" Someone outside shouted in terror.

Several of the other boat guys also shouted.

"Parking! Stop the car! Signal to the opposite side. This loud voice is obviously Boss Chen.

Then there was a short, continuous whistle.

Then Boss Chen was shouting loudly to calm down, stabilize and not reverse, and order people to go to the bow of the boat in front to check.

At this moment, something terrible happened, and the hull of the ship began to lean to one side, making a creaking sound.

"No, the ship is capsizing!" One of the passengers shouted, his voice shaking.

"Get out of here! If you get stuffed inside, it's over! One of the students got up from the ground with a pale face, reached out and grabbed the life jacket hanging from the bulkhead into his arms, and quickly put it on his body.

This is a reminder that if a shipwreck occurs and you are trapped in the cabin, there is only one way to die.

So several people started rummaging around for life-saving equipment. It's a pity that only one lifebuoy was found, and it was quickly snatched away by the two migrant workers.

This cargo vessel is also carrying passengers, and the life-saving facilities are not complete.

The two migrant workers picked up the package, opened the hatch and ran out. Two students also followed closely.

Jiang Yichen's mind was dazed for a while, he had never learned the common sense of how to deal with such an emergency, since no one else dared to stay in the lounge, then go out with him.

Thinking of this, he grabbed his satchel and rushed out of the hatch quickly.

"Hurry up and go back to me, don't run around!" Boss Chen was in the cab for emergency treatment, and found that several passengers had run out, and couldn't help but be shocked.

But no one listened to him.

Jiang Yichen had just run outside, the cargo ship was bumped left and right, the deck was wet and slippery, and there was an angle of inclination, he stood unsteadily and fell to the ground, and his shoulder bag was also thrown out of his hand and slid near the guardrail.

He was in a hurry, got up and hurried over, grabbed the satchel again, and slid it diagonally over his shoulder.

Suddenly, a big wave hit and swept him directly into the sea.

In the moment before falling into the water, Jiang Yichen casually grabbed a square plastic oil drum that slid over the deck and held it in his arms.

Then I felt like my whole body was surrounded by cold water, and my ears were rumbling.

After a few seconds, he understood what had happened, and he couldn't help but panic in his heart.

Calm, calm, he said silently, forcing himself to calm down.

Hold your breath and pedal in a circle with your legs in the water, treading hard. Hold the oil drum with your left hand and keep scribbling outward with your right hand.

Whew, Jiang Yichen raised his head to the surface, took a deep breath, and turned to the direction of the cargo ship.

"Save people......"

He shouted loudly, but another wave hit him, and he immediately choked on two mouthfuls of seawater, which was bitter and astringent, and disgusting.

There was a violent cough, and when he recovered, he adjusted the direction of his head again. In the rain and fog, the outline of the cargo ship gradually blurred, and only the sound of angry scolding and scolding could be faintly heard from there.

He understood that he was getting farther and farther away from the cargo ship.

He stretched out his right hand and waved it at the cargo ship, shouting again and again, but was quickly drowned out by the sound of the waves.

The waves around him were surging, and his body was up and down, and his water was so general that it was impossible to swim back.

The key at the moment is to save your body, try to prolong your survival time, and wait for rescue.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yichen no longer struggled in vain. He recalled the knowledge of self-rescue from falling into the water that he learned in the summer swimming training class when he was a child, and relaxed his limbs to do a floating state. Luckily, the oil drum was empty, with an estimated capacity of twenty liters, and a lid on its mouth, which saved him a lot of physical exertion.

When a big wave hits, it is undoubtedly foolish to confront it head-on. At this time, he held his breath and dived his whole body underwater, and then floated up to breathe when the waves passed.

After a while, the waves seemed to be a little smaller, and he bent his legs, took off the shoes on his feet, tied the laces together, and tied them to the straps of his satchel. Then swing your legs, pull the hem of your trousers, and pull your trousers down.

Take it to the chest, tie the ends of the trouser tube together, bite the handle of the oil drum with your mouth, free your hands, grab one side of the waistband of the trousers, place the pants behind the head, pounce forward with both hands from the back of the head, repeat several times, inflate the reservoir pipe, and then tighten the belt, so as to make a simple airbag.

Of course, since the material of the pants is not sealed, it will have to be inflated repeatedly after a while, but after all, it is better than nothing.

With two life-saving devices, his buoyancy increased greatly, and he suddenly felt much more relaxed.

The rain gradually decreased, and the visibility became much more restored, Jiang Yichen raised his eyes and looked around, the sea was vast, there was nothing but water, and it was impossible to distinguish between east and west, north and south, and the cargo ship had naturally disappeared long ago.

Judging from the impact force when the ship was hit just now, even if it did not sink, it is estimated that the damage is quite severe. Boss Chen is already taking care of himself at this time, where is there any Jing Li to pay attention to himself.

There is little hope of being rescued, and a wave of despair wells up in my heart.

No, I can't just die, hold on, hold on a little longer. He then took a deep breath and cheered himself up.

The most dangerous thing about falling into the sea is two things, one is that the sea water is cold, which leads to a drop in body temperature; The second is physical exhaustion.

However, due to the summer season, the danger of the former has been greatly reduced, and I don't feel abnormal at the moment. So the main problem is the latter.

I don't know how long it took, but the rain finally stopped, but the sky was still cloudy.

The wind also subsided, and the waves followed and quieted down.

Jiang Yichen didn't know where he had drifted, but he was feeling more and more exhausted, and it seemed that his floating ability was still not at home.

In fact, during this period of time, his body has inexplicably improved a lot, but at the moment he is still unable to make ends meet.

The trouser leg airbag had deflated, but he didn't have the strength to inflate it again. His body gradually became heavy, his limbs stiffened, and his brain was numb.

He shook his head, trying to keep himself awake.

At this moment, suddenly, he saw a gray-black shadow coming from not far below the right side of his body, which was very fast and came straight towards him. It looks like it's not small.

Shark! A terrible thought flashed through my mind.

Oops, this thing is a bloodthirsty killer. Jiang Yichen was shocked, out of the instinct of survival, his physical potential was detonated, and he desperately swam forward.

A few minutes later, the eruption was exhausted, and the gray shadow under the water still followed him, unable to get rid of it.

He had no more strength, and his mind went blank. Resign yourself to fate, it has come to this point, whether you drown or are eaten by sharks, it doesn't seem to make a difference.

This time it was genuine despair, and he closed his eyes.
