Zhang Lin took Avril Delin, and a few sailors of the Edward, a total of fifteen people together, the sun was exposed at noon, everyone's physical strength and energy were greatly consumed, and there was no fresh water, they were all a little exhausted at this time, and everyone was already thinking about the worst result in their hearts. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

An hour later, someone finally ran out of energy, lack of water and hunger, as well as physical exertion, a sailor fainted, and Delin, who was the first to find the abnormality, quickly swam over, "Li Fei, Li Fei!" Delin picked up Li Fei and tried to snort, "I am exhausted and fainted, sir, now we must ask for the predicament in front of us, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable!" ”

Delin said the predicament in front of everyone, but the current situation is not something that can be changed by manpower, Zhang Lin looked down at Avril in his arms, his spirit is fine, after all, Avril has no physical exertion along the way, Zhang Lin also has a sense of prostration now, his lips are dry and chapped because of lack of water, and his consciousness is also a little blurred, but Zhang Lin knows that he can't fall, because he is the backbone of this group of people, if he falls, the consequences will be very serious, and he wants to give them hope for survival, in a desperate situation, willpower is really important.

"Brothers, hold on, there will be a boat passing here in a while, it is not yet to the point of life and death, think about your family, think about your mother, wife, children, they are looking forward to your coming home, hold on, hope is at hand." After Zhang Lin finished speaking, he looked at the sailors around him, "I believe that we will definitely live, everyone will work together, help each other, let the brothers who are physically exhausted support them, and take care of them if they have good physical strength!" ”

After Zhang Lin said this, everyone's eyes revealed a strong desire to survive, seeing this, Zhang Lin relaxed a little, the most important thing now is to find land, there is a ship to pass by here, so as to completely get out of danger.

"Wei'er, how are you, there's nothing uncomfortable about you, right?" Avril didn't speak for so long, Zhang Lin was a little worried, after all, Avril had a superior background and had not suffered anything, and she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to persevere.

"I'm fine, I'm fine now." Avril is very happy at this time, a man in order to save himself, regardless of the danger, carried himself out in the cabin that was about to capsize, and now regardless of his physical condition, he has been holding himself to swim, if he didn't drag Zhang Lin down, maybe Zhang Lin's physical strength would be better, in this situation, physical strength is the guarantee of survival, even if it is so dangerous at this time, he has not given up on himself, such a man is the person he has to entrust for life, and his father's vision of people is really good.

The sun slowly moved westward, and the temperature on the sea slowly decreased, and after a while, Zhang Lin and his group would face a more serious survival test, and there would be no ships passing by, I am afraid that Zhang Lin and his people would not be able to survive, the truth is so cruel.

Night finally came, the temperature on the sea is now even lower, only about 20 degrees, and at this time Zhang Lin and the others' physical strength is not only exhausted, but the body is gradually falling into prostration because of lack of water, and the lower temperature is also constantly testing everyone's willpower, time passes minute by minute, just when Zhang Lin and others are completely desperate, a little light appears on the sea in the distance.

"It's a ship passing by here, and we're saved!" I don't know who shouted, and the hope of everyone was ignited: "We are going to get closer to the route it passes." Zhang Lin encouraged everyone to swim to the route of the ship together, and under this only chance to survive, no one abandoned their comrades, and tried their best to take their comrades who could not swim to survive together.

The ship was getting closer and closer, and the sound of the ship's engine could already be heard, and Zhang Lin and the others began to shout for help.

"First mate, I seem to hear someone calling for help in front of me?" "The first mate turned around, "Are you sure?" We have rescued thirteen people just now, and there must be people in this sea area who have fallen into the water, use the searchlight to see if anyone has fallen into the water on the surrounding sea! ”

"It's the first mate" The sailor immediately went to mobilize the searchlight of the first mast to shine on the place where Zhang Lin called for help, and after several searches, he finally found Zhang Lin and others, "The first mate, found the people who fell into the water, the number is unknown." ”

"Distribute lifeboats, hurry up and save people, I'll report to the captain." The first mate ordered the three sailors to save the man and report to the captain himself.

A medium-sized lifeboat was lowered, and the two sailors slid hard to the place where Zhang Lin and the others were. Zhang Lin asked everyone to wait patiently, the lifeboat slid to Zhang Lin and others after a few minutes, Zhang Lin first pushed the unconscious sailors and physical exhaustion onto the lifeboat, and the three sailors on the boat also came to help, and finally helped Avril up, and finally Zhang Lin barely had the physical strength to go up, and the lifeboat slowly slid towards the Wanderer armed merchant ship.

The Wanderer had stopped at this time, and the rope ladder and rope were lowered at night to assist the people below, Zhang Lin and the three sailors first fixed the unconscious sailor with a rope, and then the sailor on the Wanderer pulled the rope up, so the six unconscious sailors were rescued, and then Zhang Lin and others slowly climbed up along the rope ladder "Wei'er, you go up first, I will protect you behind you, don't be afraid, there is me!" ”

Avril also slowly climbed up, Zhang Lin was the last, three sailors fixed the lifeboat below, the captain and the first mate carried the unconscious sailor to the cabin together, Zhang Lin and Avril came up1, several sailors pulled a hand, "Thank you for saving us, thank you for your great grace." ”

"It's not worth it, I'm Captain Lawrence, and you're welcome to go all the way to us for the time being." Captain Lawrence is very enthusiastic, he was also a down-and-out man before, and he was helped to this day, and Lawrence is also a grateful person, who has been overboard and other people in need.

Then Captain Lawrence instructed Jack's first mate to prepare a hot bath and dinner for Zhang Lin and others, Zhang Lin and others thanked him, and then went to the cabin to wash, soaked in the sea water for a day, all of which were sea salt, took a good bath, and then had a dinner, had a good rest, and then went back to the map.

Zhang Lin took a good bath in the cabin, Avril Lavril had already washed up, and after a while, Captain Lawrence drained the drain and invited Zhang Lin and Avril to dinner, "Sir, ma'am, the captain wants to invite you to dinner." ”

"We know, you go back, we'll go in a moment." Avril asked outside, "Zhang Lin, are you okay?" The captain has told us to go to dinner, so let's hurry over, or it won't be polite. ”

"Well, I'm almost fine, how are the others?" Zhang Lin asked in the bathroom.

"I don't know, I haven't seen Adjutant Delin yet." Avril replied truthfully.
