ACT 208: The Perfect Storm (Part II)
acT208: The Perfect Storm (Part II) The storm came to an end in the wee hours of the morning, when the turbulent sea returned to calm and the warm sun sparkled on the water.
Song Jiu stood at the bow of the ship, looking at the devastation around him, and his heart was filled with the joy of the rest of his life after the catastrophe. Cao Zheng, Dai Wei, and Qianqian, the three of them fulfilled their promises, tried their best, and took more than 20 people on the boat to successfully cross the storm and usher in the sunrise of the next day.
Of course, the yacht and crew paid the price for their audacity, the luxury yacht was almost destroyed, the side deck was littered with damage from the impact of the waves, the cabins were flooded by torrential rains, the cockpit was stripped of the roof of the stormy and waves, the rooftop recreational pool was gone, the black metal brackets were exposed, the left and right side rails were twisted and deformed, the stern deck was peeled off, and there was standing water everywhere.
Song Jiu and the others hid in the cabin, thinking that the bumps and tilts were already the limit, but the subsequent collision and rain backflow refreshed their perception of storms at sea.
The engine room on the ground floor was completely submerged, the motors stopped working, the corridor of the cabin was full of water, half of the dry food in the storage room was soaked, and in the chaos, the firearms and weapons also fell into the water, and there was no time to salvage.
When they reappeared on the deck, the sea had calmed down, and the three of them leaned against each other under the console, as if they had just been fished out of the water, Dai Wei was facing the sky on his back, his face was covered with blood, Cao Zheng and Qianqian were similar, hugging each other tightly, and they were weak.
Song Jiu didn't know that Cao Zheng and Qianqian had been closed at the Ghost Gate, in fact, everyone who had survived the catastrophe had no time to hug each other to celebrate at that time.
The cabins and engine rooms need to be drained, the motor units need to be overhauled, supplies need to be salvaged, clothes need to be dried, the yacht is currently sitting in a determined position, and the hull damage must be thoroughly investigated.
The sea was calm and calm, and they couldn't see the turbulent and violent appearance of the night before, and they still knew too little about the ocean.
The yacht drifted slowly, the crew climbed out of the waterlogged cabin, Dr. Zhong examined, bandaged, and stopped the bleeding for Dai Wei and the others.
The rest of the people, under the command of Qianqian, began to repair the drainage, from the cabin to the cabin, and worked all morning.
Fortunately, the generator burned down, the backup unit could still be used, and the soaked dry food could no longer be eaten, so they had to endure the pain and throw it into the sea to feed the fish.
As for the clothes, these things can be dried, but it is a little difficult to salvage, and the water-soaked ammunition is completely finished, I didn't expect the cabin to be flooded beforehand, and it was too late to remember this stubble.
The crew in the cabin are all fine, the different degrees of bumps are not serious, they are all skin injuries, and the injuries of the pilot trio are more serious, but they are not life-threatening.
Cao Zheng and Qianqian picked up a life, Qianqian was intercepted in mid-air by the cable, I didn't feel anything at the time, I found that my waist hurt after the wind calmed down, Dr. Zhong was relieved after examination, soft tissue contusion, and rest and recuperate.
As for Cao Zheng and Dai Wei, both of them have fractures, one in the shoulder blade and the other in the ribs. Dai Wei was very crazy at the time, and rushed up against a big wave, the huge wave lifted the roof of the cockpit, and slapped Dai Wei hard, and the force was probably no easier than being hit by a car.
Luckily, after the waves passed, the rough currents pushed the boat out, and the yacht's light weight did not plunge into the water.
Later, it was Cao Zheng who took over the helm, Dai Wei was stunned by a wave, and he lay there for a long time before he came to his senses, struggling to remember, only to find that his right rib was in pain.
According to Cao Zheng, after that, he basically resigned himself to fate, the engine stopped working halfway, and the whole yacht basically became unmanned, with a rain curtain waterfall above his head and a raging torrent under his feet, and if he encountered a whirlpool again, there was no possibility of struggling at all.
Fortunately, the tragedy did not continue, and the thunderstorms on the sea also came and went like the wind, and in the middle of the night, the sea breeze gradually calmed down, although the torrential rain was still the same, and the waves were no longer so fierce.
At that time, it was pitch black, the emergency motor was not activated, and the sea was completely cold and hellish.
Cao Zheng wanted to return to the cabin with the two of them, but the entrance to the staircase was blocked by a broken roof frame, and the situation could not be cleaned up at that time, so he had to snuggle behind the bridge and shy away from the rain.
Until the early hours of the morning, the rainstorm was finally cathartic, there was a fish belly white in the sky, and a wisp of gold faintly penetrated, indicating that the clear sky was coming, and the three of them were completely relaxed.
The cabin wasn't as thrilling as the deck, but it was enough to toss the crowd, and they heeded Dai Wei's advice and returned to the cabin to try their best to secure themselves in a safe position.
However, the hull of the ship was so jolting that it was almost all the time rolling hoists, and the boat was tilting in one direction, and the tables and chairs and beds in the cabin were dancing wildly until the cabin was flooded, and it was only a little relieved.
Song Jiu's cabin in Natalia, the cabin near the stern and bow of the ship are the hardest hit areas, especially the stern deck was also broken a big hole, the turbulent sea water and the torrential rain poured wildly, the two of them rolled dozens of times in the cabin, and finally realized that something was wrong, the entire cabin was completely scrapped, and the water was almost spreading to the waist.
Song Jiu left the cabin with the foreign girl and tried to venture onto the deck, before Dai Wei said that he would report the situation through the radio at any time, and then there was no movement, Song Jiu was not sure if the three of them were still alive.
Like Cao Zheng, the two struggled to wade forward, and finally climbed up the central staircase, but found that the entrance and exit were blocked, the people below couldn't go up, and the people on the deck couldn't get down.
In those few hours, from heaven to hell and from hell back to earth, the psychophysiological condition will not be repeated, in short, when everyone climbed onto the deck again and felt the blazing sun, both men and women, all of them burst into tears and shouted excitedly, eager to line up to give hugs to the three drivers.
It has to be said that this is a miracle, there are no fatalities on the whole ship, the damage and loss of objects are completely negligible, as long as you hold on for one more day, the journey will be considered a success.
Looking at the calm water around him, Song Jiu raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar, which attracted the attention of everyone who was busy.
"It's good to be alive." Song Yao wrung a handful of water with a T-shirt and hung it on a temporary rope, the limited activity space was full of men and women wearing only underwear, the disaster was not dead, drying clothes was also a serious matter, and no one wanted to escape the storm and be planted in the disease again.
"yes, it's like a dream." Song Jiu grinned and hurriedly looked away, after all, he was a brother and sister, Song Yao's figure was too angry, he was embarrassed to stare at it.
At this time, the bikini that Yang Xiaomeng brought back finally came in handy, and it was strange to say that it was also a three-point style, and the bikini was more revealing and sexy than normal underwear, but it gave people a different feeling.
Men and women are not embarrassed to look at them in pants, but after changing into bikinis, they are calm and do not feel that there is anything wrong with them.
Wu Wentao sat on the side of the boat in swimming trunks, he wanted to quit smoking when there was tobacco in the past, but now all the tobacco was destroyed, but he suddenly wanted to smoke again, holding a puddle of wet rotten tobacco on the deck, as if he was going to dry it and continue to smoke, and the bikini girls who came and went in front of him were like nothing in his eyes.
Jin Bo and Cao Zheng changed their clothes, wiped their wet hair, and returned to the cabin with the toolbox, the motor needed to be overhauled, and the maintenance operation was not very convenient, Cao Zheng had to go into battle hard, these two people had a lot of body hair, a pinch of heart hair on their chests, dancing and waving in the sea breeze, which made Song Jiu envious.
The slightly cool fingers touched Song Jiu's back, Song Jiu was stunned, turned his head to look, and Song Yao was gently rubbing his back with distress in his eyes.
"These wounds?" Song Yao hadn't seen Song Jiu's upper body yet, and she didn't bother to look at the chaotic battle in the cave at the beginning, but today was the first time she found the terrifying scar on her brother's body.
"Old wounds, nothing." Song Jiu smiled, scooped up a damp blanket and draped it on his back, everyone else had tattoos and tattooed muscles, and he was really embarrassed by the criss-crossing whip marks all over his body.
When it comes to tattoos, the people who survived the catastrophe have found joy in soothing their souls. There is still a cave heroine in the team, who has been transformed into the team, and everyone has basically forgotten their past, and they are suddenly opposed, and they can't help but see some things that are not easy to notice.
The girl was twenty-four or five, and everyone called her Jasmine, which was named after the tattoo pattern on her neck, just like the big peony and zebra print in the past.
Jasmine picked up a leaky swimsuit, revealing her hot body, and exposing the entire tattoo on her back. This girl was not outstanding in the cave at that time, she looked like she belonged to the kind of passer-by, and her appearance was still upright, there was nothing special, but just such a girl, with a smooth back, actually tattooed a dragon descending Arhat with angry eyes...... Good guy, people say that only big shoulders and round waists are suitable for large tattoos, but I didn't expect that the slender body tattoo also has a unique bewitching beauty.
What surprised everyone even more was that in addition to the back and neck, almost all other parts of the girl's body were covered by various patterns, and the three-point bikini could only cover the sensitive parts.
Jasmine didn't mind at all, and showed off her tattoos very generously, and learned that she was a tattoo artist herself, and she was ingenious, and almost all the tattoos in the cave were written by her.
"Holy shit, this is pretty." Jiao Ziqian also shouted around him, pointed to the chic wreath at Jasmine's ankle, and muttered, "Sister, when we go ashore, will you give me a whole one?" ”
"Men's tattoos don't look good, right?" Jasmine smiled dumbly, Jiao Ziqian was not the first to make an appointment, and certainly not the last.
"Then I'll want you to carry that one on your back too." Jiao Ziqian's aesthetic standards are very popular, he only has a knife wound on his back, and he has always wanted to add something, but unfortunately he didn't have the opportunity before.
Jiao Ziqian was very happy to get the promise, his eyes swept, and suddenly he found the treasure again, leaned into Ying Doudou's ear, and muttered, "Get one for you too?" ”
"I don't want it, I heard it hurts." Ying Doudou shook his head, talking about the pain, suddenly remembered the death in the backyard again, and snorted angrily.
"Something smaller, like that." Jiao Ziqian blinked sheepishly, Ying Doudou followed his gaze, there was a rhizome pattern in Jasmine's lower abdomen, winding down, and the back part was covered by palm-sized swimming trunks, and he could guess where the pattern was with his toes.
Ying Doudou's face was blushing, and he glared at him angrily. After all, they are all young people, they have experienced a lot of life and death situations, and their emotions are adjusted quickly, as long as there is something to divert attention, no one will deliberately immerse themselves in the shadows.
Luo Yu and Yu An were looking at the sea on the other side, the water generator was not working at this time, but fortunately, the bucket in the hall was sealed and had not been polluted.
A few girls stood in one place, reflecting the blue sky and the sea, and it was a beautiful scenery. As if sensing the gaze from elsewhere, Luo Yu turned his head and glanced at Song Jiu, both of them were stunned for a moment, and then staggered their eyes.
