More than an hour after the reconnaissance and search team set off, Liu Qiang's team on Huludao's small belly was the first to hear the news of jubilation......

"Wooden shed, my God, there is a small wooden shed here!"

"There were stone stoves, stone tables, and leftover fruits. Xiao Li, look at what is in that broken tin can......"

"Report to the team, that's broth! Fresh broth ......"

Liu Qiang's search team had just finished reporting when Chloe's plane came from another excited call from Ah Mei......

"Mountainside, look at the flat land on the mountainside, there's a pile of firewood there!"

"Yes, it's a big pile of firewood! It must be used to transmit signals! There are people here, there must be people who have survived shipwrecks! Oh my God, I've got to report back to you soon......"

There was a dead silence in the bridge room for a moment, and then there was a tsunami-like jubilation: "Yay—long live—" The staff burst into tears, unable to help themselves, hugging each other and screaming wildly, their excitement and excitement overflowing.

Yang Yingying and Li Jing swept away the sadness and haze for a long time, as if they were a different person, jumping and jumping, shouting and shouting, and hugging the staff tightly without emotion.

Liang Zhenyu's tightly knit brows finally relaxed, and there was a rare smile on his face. He grabbed the walkie-talkie and said to Liu Qiang excitedly: "Speed up the search, be sure to find the owner of the wooden shed in the shortest possible time!" Oh my God, is there really a miracle? After saying that, he contacted Chloe again, asking them to fly as slowly as possible, look carefully, and try to take more pictures. Finally, he and Thomas just reported the news and told them to be cautious and not negligent. In particular, the mountains at the end of the island are steep, the terrain is complex, and the forests are lush and hidden, so it is very likely that pirates are hidden. After the explanation, he took a long breath, poured himself a cup of coffee, and waited excitedly for the arrival of the good news.

Yang Yingying quietly came to Liang Zhenyu's side, held his hand tightly and said, "Brother Zhenyu, thank you!" If it weren't for you, my cousin would...... But it's ......."

Liang Zhenyu shook his head and replied in an apologetic tone: "Actually, it should be you who want to thank you!" If I didn't have you to fight to the death, I really wouldn't have made up my mind to go to sea! So, I should thank you very much! ”

Li Jing said with a smile: "You guys don't push around anymore, everyone has to thank you!" In addition to the two of you, there is Chloe and Ame, and all the bandit crew, including the crew on board! ”

Liang Zhenyu listened, nodded and said: "Yes, yes, yes, or Ah Jing can speak, we really have to thank all the people who went on the expedition with the ship." Without them, we would certainly not be victorious today. Come, let's have a cup of coffee together. But I have to tell you first, the people you find on the island are not necessarily ......"

Yang Yingying's face darkened, and then she raised her head again and replied with a smile: "I know." But whoever we find can at least send us a signal. That is, the possibility of people who fall into the sea and drift to an isolated island and survive is very high. And my cousin is not an ordinary person, he has good physical fitness, strong adaptability, and can swim, so the possibility of surviving with Sister Shiqi is higher! ”

"I hope so!" Liang Zhenyu nodded and silently picked up the coffee in his hand. Alas, what do you say about this little girl? No matter how high and strong your swimming skills are, how long can you swim with a weak landlubber? How far to travel? Unless there is a lifeboat. But where did the Polaris, which didn't even leave a piece of broken wood, come from a lifeboat for them to escape?

Then the people on the bridge fell into a long wait. Ten minutes, twenty minutes, fifty minutes...... Two hours had passed, and there had been no news of the survivors coming from the speakers, all inconsequential conversations about fruit beasts and the like.

Not long after, the reconnaissance helicopter returned, and no pirate traces were found. Chloe's seaplane also returned, along with thousands of photographs.

Liang Zhenyu quickly imported the photo into the computer and carefully stared at the firewood picture with everyone.

It was a pile of dry firewood more than a man high, piled up on a flat stone slab halfway up the hill at the end of the island. Stacked neatly with dead branches, like a standard pyramid.

"It's strange that there are wooden sheds to live in and stacks of firewood, but why is there no one there? Could it be that it has already ......" Liang Zhenyu's brows were twisted into a rope, thinking hard about the strange phenomenon, "It shouldn't be possible." Otherwise, how can you explain the leftover fruits and half-tin cans of fresh broth? ”

Chloe's heart moved, and she blurted out, "Could those people mistakenly think that we are pirates and hide in fear?" This is guns and artillery, and aircraft landing craft. ”

"Quite possibly." Ah Mei nodded and replied, "Either you have unfortunately died." ”

Liang Zhenyu listened, waved his hand and said to himself: "Pirates don't have aircraft cannons, so the argument that we are pirates is not valid." And what about the possibility of being killed? It shouldn't be so coincidental, and it's not so unlucky, and there is still a lot of leftover food in the wooden shed. ”

"Could it be...... What if there was an accident? Yang Yingying pondered for a while, and finally mustered up the courage to say to Liang Zhenyu: "For example, as soon as he saw our ship coming from a distance, he was worried that we wouldn't be able to see him, and then he was worried that we would leave him soon, so he quickly ran to light the fire and send a signal, but the result was ......."

"Yes, that's probably why." Liang Zhenyu's eyes lit up, and he immediately picked up the walkie-talkie next to him, and called Liu Qiangfanggang and Thomas loudly, asking them to quickly send several groups of people to search along the wooden shed and firewood piles in sections, especially paying attention to the mountainside with steep roads and many stones.

After hearing Liu Qiangfanggang and Thomas's answers, everyone hung their hearts again and sat on the bridge waiting for information.

Half an hour later, Thomas's search team members excitedly reported on the loudspeaker......

"Target appears, target appears, eleven o'clock direction, fifty meters away ......"

"My God, isn't that a wild man? The whole body was covered in hair, and only a few pieces of cloth were tied......

"Oh no, his leg is broken and stuck in the crack of the stone......"

When the people on the bridge heard this, they immediately burst into a burst of warm and prolonged applause, and everyone high-fived each other and gave Yang Yingying a thumbs up.

Not long after, Captain Thomas's report came from the loudspeaker: "Report to Mr. Liang, the target has been found, and his right leg is broken." But it was not Mr. Xu or Miss Liang, but the survivors of the shipwreck who drifted to the island ten years ago, and I quickly sent someone back to the 'Shiyuan' for treatment. Also, according to survivors, there were no pirates on the island, and there was no one else. What do we do next? Do you continue the search, or do you want to return to the mothership? ”

Yang Yingying was stunned for a moment, and her face was suddenly covered with a lingering cloud. Li Jing hurriedly walked over to help her, and kept whispering comfort in her ear. The staff was also slightly disappointed, and walked back to their posts with their heads down, and began to devote themselves to intense and orderly work again.

Liang Zhenyu thought for a while, and then instructed Thomas: "The mission is over, you can relax for a while." I'll give you five hours to hunt and picnic, and we'll continue our journey before dark. Pay attention not to kill indiscriminately, let alone cause forest fires. I'll send someone to bring you drinks in a moment. ”

"Yay, hooray!" As soon as Liang Zhenyu's voice fell, the enthusiastic cheers of the team members immediately came from the speaker, booming, almost bursting the speakers.

After Liang Zhenyu made the call, he led everyone to the deck to wait for the rescued survivors of the isolated island.

Not long after, a landing craft came at a rapid pace with wind and thunder, unloaded a fluffy "wild man," a bison, and a few goats, took more than 10 boxes of vodka, and returned to Hulu Island with another smoke.

The "wild man" was tall and thin, with blue eyes and a hooked nose, wrapped in a bandit shirt and a bandit shirt on his face, and his face and forehead were full of hair, so he couldn't tell which was hair and which was beard, let alone how old he was. He looked tired and pale, and although his broken right leg had been simply cleaned and bandaged, the valgus bones and bloody muscles were still shocking. Because he had lived alone for too long, he burst into tears and cried when he saw everyone. Despite his inability to move on a stretcher, he insisted on hugging everyone present, and said uncontrollably, "Oh...... Oh, God...... Lemuel ...... I...... I've finally got you here...... What ...... 10 years I spent ten years on the island alone...... No one spoke...... No one accompanied...... I...... I ......"

Liang Zhenyu hugged Lemuel and comforted him softly, quickly sent someone to send him to the ship's infirmary, and summoned doctors to urgently carry out a series of treatment measures such as hemostasis, reduction, covering medicine, and splinting.

Although Lemuel was weak, sleepy, and unfamiliar with his speech, he did not speak fluently, but he still pulled Liang Zhenyu and did not let go, and still talked about his terrible and lucky encounter.

Everyone was deeply admired and curious about Lemuel, especially the cause of his death and the process of drifting, and wanted to know how he came to this island and how he survived alone, so they did not force him, and all sat quietly in the infirmary, watching the doctor scramble to clean his wounds and bones, and quietly listen to him tell his tragic experience......

“…… Lemuel, my name is Lemuel, I am forty years old, and I am the boatswain of the freighter 'Conwit'. Ten years ago, when a batch of four-stroke piston engines were transported to China, pirates encountered pirates on the way, and not only robbed us of all our cargo, but also blew up our freighter entirely. Twenty-six, twenty-six, twenty-six are gone in the blink of an eye......"

"Pirates? Your ship was also wrecked by pirates? Liang Zhenyu's heart moved, holding Lemuel's hand and asked impatiently, "Have you seen their faces clearly?" Can you tell which country they are from? Do you know where their nest is? How did they wreck your freighter? ”

Lemuel shook his head, a pain on his pale face. He reached out and wiped the tears from his face, whimpered and said, "Japanese! The leader was a Japanese with a saber. The rest of the personnel are very mixed, both Americans and Germans, and there are quite a few Asians and Africans. They were no ordinary pirates, and they had never heard of such pirates, they flew submarines. Suddenly he came out of the sea, subdued me twenty-seven by two, and then began to frantically move and grab the ship's cargo, wanting everything and sparing nothing. In the end, he brutally fired two torpedoes, which blew up our 10,000-ton freighter to pieces in one fell swoop......"

"Submarines?" Liang Zhenyu and Chloe glanced at each other, and both showed a smile of relief, "Sure enough, it's a submarine, and it's not an ordinary pirate!" ”

After listening to Liang Zhenyu's translation, Yang Yingying eagerly asked Lemuel: "Where were you on the freighter at that time?" And how did they escape that big bang? ”

After listening to the translation, Lemuel sighed and said: "I was standing on the deck at that time, and when I saw the pirate submarine flashing in flames, I realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly shouted to my companions to jump into the sea. It's just a pity that they don't know if they didn't hear clearly, or if they don't want to jump into the icy water. As a result, there was two booms, nothing was gone, nothing was gone. It's miserable, it's really miserable. Those pirates killed twenty-six of my companions in the blink of an eye! ”

When everyone heard this, their faces showed a look of righteous indignation.

Yang Yingying wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, endured her grief and asked, "Then what?" And how did you end up on this island? How long did it take? What is eaten? And what do you drink? ”

Lemuel covered his face and wept for a while, and then replied, "It's unbearable, it's unbearable!" When I got out of the water, the sea was already in shambles, and the huge freighter had fallen apart, blown into several pieces, and was sinking at high speed. I was so frightened that I wanted to cry without tears, and I wanted to chase after the pirate submarine, but unfortunately it was too far away, so I had to endure the pain and hatred in my heart, and collect the wooden planks scattered on the surface of the sea, and then tie them together with the rope I found, and make a simple raft for myself to take refuge. As for what to eat and drink, alas, hell days! What you eat, what you can eat. Small fish scares, seagulls and herons that strayed into the raft, etc. Drinking water depends on heaven and God, collecting rainwater and dew, saving drop by drop. Most of the time I didn't eat anything, I didn't drink anything, I just lay down on a raft and waited to die. Five times he was dying of hunger, seven times he was swept into the sea by the waves, and two times he was almost eaten by a shark. After 32 days of drifting on the sea, I finally came to this uninhabited island. Although you don't have to worry about eating and drinking on the island, your life alone is really lonely. I prayed day after day, hoping that the passing ships would take me home, and it was only today that God finally brought me the gospel. Suddenly, I found your boat, and because it was too far away, and I was afraid that you would not stop, so I ran to light the firewood that I had carefully piled up, but before I reached the mountainside, I fell to the ground in a panic, and even broke my leg. The horror and despair of that time is really something that no one can ......"

Yang Yingying's eyes were red, she leaned over and hugged Lemuel gently, and then stood aside silently with tears in her eyes.

Chloe slowly walked to the hospital bed, clasped Lemuel's hands tightly and said, "It's over, it's all over, you're back with us." This is not only God's favor for you, but also your personal luck, which is worthy of everyone's joy. Can I ask you a few questions now, though? Did you see which direction the pirates were going? Do you change direction often while drifting on the sea? ”

Lemuel gritted his teeth and replied hatefully, "See, north-northwest." And because I lacked food and drink, I had no strength, so I had to let the raft drift in the opposite direction. Otherwise, I'll go after those damned pirates, and even if I lose my life, I'll have to fight them well. ”

"Are you sure you didn't change direction halfway through?" Chloe leaned forward, lowered her head and asked eagerly.

Lemuel's face changed, as if he had been greatly insulted, and he blushed and said loudly: "I have been at sea for eight years, and I have traveled all over five continents and four oceans, and you think that I can't even tell the direction. ”

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant." When Chloe heard this, she hurriedly shook her head and replied, "I just wanted to ask you where the pirates have gone and on which island they may settle down. Do you know why you're so lucky? Why did you meet us? And also sent a large number of people to look for you? ”

"Isn't that the result of my daily prayers to God? That's what you just said. Lemuel looked at Chloe in astonishment, and then suddenly came to her senses, "Oh, so you're an army that has come to track pirates!" What country are you from? Russia? Great, wonderful, Russia is too strong, a generation of empires, the majesty is still there! ”

"No, we are from Huaxia! Retired soldiers in Huaxia, as well as sharp-bladed mercenaries! Chloe shrugged, then glanced at Liang Zhenyu and Ah Mei, turned and strode out of the infirmary.

Liang Zhenyu was stunned for a moment, then nodded knowingly, comforted Lemuel with gentle words again, got up and strode after Chloe with Ah Mei.

Lemuel couldn't hold back, so he had to look at Yang Yingying and ask inexplicably, "Did I say something wrong?" Or do I have a problem with my ears? Are you retired soldiers from Huaxia? And American sharp-edged mercenaries? ”

Yang Yingying couldn't understand what Lemuel said, so she just looked at him miserably and smiled. Later, after the ship's doctor translated it, she shyly explained: "Our relatives were also killed by that gang of pirates, so we organized this crackdown on bandits in private." The goal is to find the pirate at all costs to get revenge! ”

Lemuel opened his mouth in astonishment, and was speechless for a long time. After a while, he gave a thumbs up and said excitedly: "Huaxia! Huaxia is great! I love Huaxia so much! Doctor, hurry up, give me some medicine, I need to get my leg healed and go with them to fight pirates......"

"Thank you, Mr. Lemuel!" Yang Yingying smiled, took Li Jing and turned around and left the infirmary. On the way, she whispered to Li Jingdao, "Sister Chloe must have found some traces of pirates, let's go over and take a look." ”
