Chapter Twenty-Nine: The sky is unpredictable
Maybe it's Guan Yu's crow's mouth, or maybe it's the old captain's rich experience in weather changes at sea, in the waters near State A, it is indeed blowing wind and waves and rolling up a tsunami.
The people in the Hall of Splendour, who had just escaped from the Anchor Pirates, were overwhelmed by the sudden waves.
The huge crystal lamp on the ceiling of the brilliant hall crumbled with the hull of the ship, and suddenly fell, smashing towards the direction of the bar counter, Dong Shuang, who was outside the bar, had no time to dodge,
The appointment didn't have time to think too much, and at the last moment, like he sacrificed himself on the roof of the Tingtian Mansion to save Dong Tingtian, he protected Dong Shuang behind him and hugged her tightly to his chest.
The huge impact force directly smashed the bar out of a hole, and Dong Shuang was pressed under the wreckage of the crystal lamp and the wooden bar.
The old captain with a bruised cheek barely stood on a pillar in the center of the glorious hall, calmly directing the crew to assist the passengers to leave, directing them to the stern lifeboat,
The crew on deck was still battling the waves against some of the recalcitrant anchor pirates, the screams of the crowd mixed with the sound of guns, collapsing objects, and broken glass.
And all the noise was covered by the sudden thunder of lightning, as if to gather strength for the coming great wave......
The injured appointment woke up from a brief fainting, and in the collapsed wreckage, Zhou Chuxuan was pulling his hand hard, trying to pull it out of the ruins, surrounded by a murmur and Wang Qian's piercing and sharp laughter.
Dong Shuang, who was in a coma in his arms, was in front of him was a grizzled Zhou Chuxuan, although Zhou Chuxuan used his strength to pull himself out, but he didn't move at all, because his left foot was stuck in the upward curling ring of the crystal lamp, and if he wanted to get out, he had to let his left foot break free first.
But the appointment knows that at the moment, the crew and passengers are fleeing, and the wounded are injured, and only a few people listen to the old captain's arrangement, where can there be rich manpower to immediately come to help lift hundreds of pounds of crystal lamps?
"Don't bother, my foot is stuck, pull Dong Shuang out first"
"But Dong Lao..."
"It's nothing, Zhou Chuxuan, listen to me, save Dong Shuang first"
Zhou Chuxuan's eyes were suddenly blurred, she hesitated and did not act, and even changed her posture from half-squatting to upright, at this moment, the appointment reacted - this woman wanted to leave herself and Dong Shuang behind and escape alone!
"Don't worry, after you take Dong Shuang and leave safely, she will do what we promised you before, she is a grateful person, as long as she can live, you will have a good life in the magic capital"
As he spoke, ignoring the weight of his back and the pain caused by wood chips and crystal shavings, he pressed his hands on the ground and pressed his strength to form a very small arched gap under his body, and buried his forehead deeply.
"Zhou Chuxuan, hurry! Why are you stunned, this is your only chance! Think of the baby in your belly! ”
After a while, Zhou Chuxuan resumed her half-squatting posture and slowly dragged out Dong Shuang, who was unconscious under her appointment, and the beads of sweat on her forehead fell on Dong Shuang's face.
Appointment's arms gradually trembled because of the loss of strength, and his deeply buried forehead was almost close to Dong Shuang's cheek, and he gasped and still didn't look up, thinking that if he would die today, it would not be bad to be the daughter of the Dong family at the last glance.
"Quick! I can't hold on anymore! ”
On the opposite side of the bar, Tian Xun, who had lost too much blood, was held in Xiaoli's arms and couldn't move, Yang Nan rushed forward when he saw that he was in distress, but he shook with the hull of the ship, and the piano placed in the center of the brilliant hall slid straight towards him, smashing him to the other side of the bar.
When her body was about to reach her limit, Zhou Chuxuan finally took advantage of the waves to pull Dong Shuang out from under the appointment, but the appointment slid to the direction of the piano stand with the crystal lamp that stuck her left foot.
He tried desperately to grasp the floor with both hands, but the wooden floor was so smooth that he had to slide with the shaking of the hull, and the stiff drag caused a sharp pain in his left foot.
Yang Nan was trying to push away the piano stand blocking in front of him, but he saw the huge crystal lamp smashing towards him, and he couldn't stop screaming in horror, all this happened in a few seconds.
After a loud collision, smoke and dust rose from the left corner of the Hall of Glory, and a figure in the thick smoke helped another limping person to walk out slowly.
"Tell me, is your life bigger or my life bigger?"
"It's hard to say, if you don't make it, you'll have to die today"
The appointment of the left calf was pulled out of a ten-centimeter-long opening by the sharp point of the crystal lamp ring, and the movement was blocked, and Yang Nan supported Tian Xun and Xiaoli to converge, four people and three injured, with the assistance of a crew member, walked towards the deck, the elevator has been damaged.
There was only a glimmer of light brought by the lightning outside the ship in the dark glorious hall, and the old captain could be seen still holding the pillar, directing the remaining passengers to evacuate, and Zhou Chuxuan and Dong Shuang were nowhere to be seen.
"What about Yang Nan, Dong Shuang and Zhou Chuxuan?"
"When the two of us bumped into each other just now, I saw that Zhou Chuxuan had already helped Dong Shuang out"
The crew did not have as many passengers, and the staircase aisle was full of passengers who were fleeing in a hurry, passing four people, during which they collided with the shoulders of the fleeing people, appointing a person who did not stand still and almost fell down the stairs, after all, no one pays attention to identity and etiquette anymore.
When they came to the deck, the wind and rain were coming, the wind was blowing, and the rainstorm was falling on the four people, and they could not look directly ahead, and in a trance, they could only see sparks not far ahead, and they could hear the muffled sound of gunfire covered by lightning.
The dizziness caused by excessive blood loss hit, and the limping step became more and more staggering, leaning on Yang Nan's shoulder, his vision became more and more blurred, and he walked unconsciously.
"Wake up, wake up, Ren.. Dong Lao! ”
"Hmm... Ahh
There was also a lot of bleeding from the wound on Yang Nan's head, but it was diluted by the heavy rain, it was not as obvious as appointing the bleeding, he and Xiaoli worked together to bring the two seriously injured to the stern lifeboat with difficulty,
When the young crew saw the four people who were physically exhausted, they hurriedly stepped forward to support the appointment who was about to fall, and on the rough sea was the lifeboat urging everyone to set off.
Zhou Chuxuan and the unconscious Dong Shuang also sat in a small lifeboat, which could only carry 8 people, but it was full of 12 people, which was quite crowded.
But there was the last empty lifeboat next to him, Yang Nan breathed a sigh of relief, he was glad to be rescued, and he estimated that the passengers on the boat had almost evacuated.
The young crew checked the number of people, and the lifeboat that was about to leave could only accommodate three more people at most, and his face was embarrassed, and he said to Yang Nan,
"I'm sorry, but this ship can only carry three more people... You decide who gets on the boat first, and there's an empty boat behind it."
Yang Nan understands that although there is a race against time in times of crisis, the crew members are all doing their duty, in addition to the crew who are still fighting, the young crew is also trying their best to manage the lifeboat, in order to ensure that everyone is rescued in the huge waves and rainstorms as much as possible.
Intending to stay by himself and wait for the next empty boat, when he was helping the appointment onto the boat, a gunshot rang out very close behind him, causing him to have a ringing in his ears, and everyone on the lifeboat screamed in panic.
Tian Xun fell to the ground in response, blood splashed on Xiao Li's face beside him, a scar-faced bald head was pointing at Xiao Li with a gun, and Yang Nan's wide eyes turned into anger with horror.
"Alright, now you don't have to worry about overloading, little captain, untie that empty boat"
