Chapter 1045: The Aftermath of the Catastrophe
The dark clouds in the sky gradually dispersed, and the sky after the rain was as clear as a wash, and some birds flew by, neatly picking up a sea fish, and flying away with the victorious food.
The sea was still a little rough and windy, but it was much gentler, like an angry lion that had gradually calmed down.
Liang Chu raised his head and looked at the flying birds, breathed a sigh of relief, and turned his head to look at Mu Ling gently.
It's good that they've escaped.
When you drift to the shore and meet a place with a population, you can rebuild your ship and set sail.
Although I am a little tired, this is not the time to rest. Liang Chu had already looked around vigilantly, beware of any more sudden situations.
A few people floated like this, on the surface of the sea.
The sun gradually went down, and the dusk afterglow hit the sea, and the orange hue seemed a little warm.
But the wind on the sea is getting colder and colder, blowing on people like ice knives blowing, and it is bitterly cold.
If people go on like this, they will be killed by the cold if they are not killed by the waves, not to mention that the clothes on their bodies are wet, and this blow will be returned.
Seeing that the surrounding sea was indeed calm, and there would indeed be no storm in a short period of time, Liang Chu simply untied the ribbon and opened the wooden box.
There is food and clothing, as well as essential things such as a compass and a map.
Woke up the two who were asleep, and Liang Chu took out his clothes: "Change your clothes first, you will catch a cold if you wear wet clothes." ”
Mu Ling was a little stunned, and it took a long time to react: "Who are we?" ”
"The storm has passed, and now I don't know where I'm drifting, and I don't see any islands around, and I don't know how fast the boat is going."
Liang Chu pointed around and turned away: "You and Shen Yuruo change their clothes first, don't look for the wind cold." ”
Now this is the only way to go.
"How can this work, this ......" Shen Yuruo didn't react yet, but he also knew that he was embarrassed, "I better not change it." ”
It's okay to change your clothes or not, so don't change them, maybe they will dry out with a blow.
Shen Yuruo thought well, but Mu Ling didn't allow it, stretched out a piece of clothing in the middle, and said to Shen Yuruo: "Hurry up and change!" No one on this sea will look at you, and if you're worried that a fish in the sea will peek at you, we'll get it up and eat it later! ”
"This ...... Okay, okay! ”
Shen Yuruo lowered her head, and finally changed her clothes awkwardly.
Two quarters of an hour later, Shen Yuruo finally changed his clothes, and the wet clothes were piled aside, always a little embarrassed.
Mu Ling also changed his clothes, and then wrapped the wet clothes again with the oiled paper that had wrapped the dry clothes before, and put them aside, planning to dry them after he arrived on some island.
This time, they don't have a big ship, and it's not convenient to cook and eat.
Fortunately, the foresight brought food, and it was enough for them to last for some time, hoping that it would be until then.
After taking some dried meat and dried fruits for Shen Yuruo, Mu Ling turned out Liang Chu's clothes and covered them in the same way, telling Liang Chu to change into clean clothes.
After tossing, when everyone was eating dried meat and dried fruits in one place, it was already night.
The sea could not light candles and other things, so a few people could only eat something by the moonlight in the sky.
The dinghy is not big, and after putting a wooden box, the space is even smaller.
Mu Ling took a few thicker clothes for Shen Yuruo to cover, telling her not to catch a cold, and she and Liang Chu covered a coat together.
The night was quiet, and only the sound of the waves could be heard.
"Aunt Ling......"
Shen Yuruo's voice sounded weakly, with helplessness and fear.
Mu Ling let out a 'hmm' and asked softly, "But do you feel uncomfortable?" ”
"No...... I'm just scared...... There won't be any sea monsters on this sea, right? This dark ......"
In the past, when I was on the ship, I would go to the deck at night to see the night view or something, but I never felt afraid of it, but there was a feeling of emptiness.
But today, floating here alone, I feel too scared to do it, for fear that something will jump up behind me.
This kayak is actually very sturdy, and it is not small, Shen Yuruo shrunk the whole person in the kayak, only showing one head, but he still couldn't help but feel scared.
Mu Ling over there smiled and said again: "No, you can sleep well, and when you wake up tomorrow, we won't be able to meet the island." ”
It's really a good wish.
Shen Yuruo nodded, and after a long time, he remembered that Mu Ling couldn't see it, so he said again: "Okay, I'll sleep." ”
"If you're afraid, why don't I tell you a story?" Mu Ling suddenly proposed.
Shen Yuruo nodded, and was about to speak, when he heard Mu Ling's soft voice over there.
The story of Robinson Crusoe is a classic of sea drifting, after experiencing so many magical things, he was finally able to return to his hometown, but in the end, because of what he saw on an island, he was not used to returning to his own world.
Some things are really subtle.
Mu Ling's voice softened gently, in such a quiet night, with the sea breeze, it was very reassuring.
Shen Yuruo listened to it and curled up unconsciously and fell asleep, and in the end he didn't even hear the end of the story.
The story is so long that it's impossible to tell it all at once.
Sensing that Shen Yuruo's breathing on the other side had stabilized for a long time, Mu Ling stopped, smiled and said softly, "Sleep." ”
"Good work."
Liang Chu brushed her hair and pulled the person into his arms again.
The kayak was a little fluttering because of their movements, but it quickly stabilized, Mu Ling stared a little nervously for a while, and only breathed a sigh of relief when the kayak stabilized.
Liang Chu's chest let out a sullen smile, his chest moved, Mu Ling leaned on his chest, and suddenly felt a burst of satisfaction.
They're real...... I'm still alive!
"Don't be afraid, we have water and food, there are many islands in the sea here, at most we can find new islands in two days, and we will be saved."
Liang Chu comforted softly.
Mu Ling smiled and snuggled up to his chest: "I hope so, I didn't expect that this time we really encountered a storm, and we have obviously gone so far." ”
"Presumably the beam should be closer, after all, we have traveled through so many countries."
Liang Chu patted her head, extremely gentle.
With every step they take, they get closer to home, and this is a beautiful wish, a firm wish that must be fulfilled.
And they just encountered a storm, and there is still a lot of hope ahead.
Mu Ling nodded, leaned on his chest, and said softly: "You can rest for a while, I'll keep guard." ”
