Chapter 25: Getting on board
I couldn't find a big boat, so I had to make do with these water amusement pedal boats and small rowing boats, as long as I didn't encounter strong winds and waves on the river, there was still no danger.
Most of these small boats weighed two or three hundred pounds, and the men found electric tricycles to drag them back and forth, and they were busy until the evening to get eighteen pedal boats with more than four seats to the shore connecting to Yuzui Bay.
The team discussed again, and while the night was still dark, they also got the two-seater pedal boats, and then temporarily grouped them. Two people are placed on each pedal boat, and a small rowing boat or two-seater pedal boat is pulled by a rope behind it to hold gas canisters and other supplies.
Secondly, everyone rested in this green expo park for a few days, and looked for gas canisters and pots for boiling water, as well as some supplies to take away to eat on the road.
Although most of the residents of Sujing City use gas pipelines, they are only concentrated in the urban area, and there are still many people in the surrounding area who use liquefied natural gas, so it is not difficult to find these materials.
The men went out to slash and kill the zombies in search of supplies, while the women stayed in the Expo Park to inflate the swimming rings and inner tubes, and then tied them to pedal boats and rowboats to strengthen the hull buoyancy.
This kind of artificially powered boat travels on the water surface of the Yangtze River, although the speed is slow, it is faster than crossing the wall and alley on land with two legs, and it is relatively safe.
On the Yangtze River, there must be large civilian private vessels, such as coal and sand boats or fishing boats, as long as one is found, it is enough for the whole team.
In addition, there are many towns and towns and water amusement parks in the Jianghuai area, as long as you pay a little attention, the possibility of finding yachts, fishing boats, and cement boats is still quite large.
After the supplies and travel methods are determined, the team is free to work together, and at least one man on each pedal boat must act as the main force, and then a woman must be matched.
Sun Jiaqi found Chen Yu and asked for a partner, but the latter didn't matter, anyway, it was the same with whoever he partnered with. But her sister Sun Jiahui actually wanted to come in with a partner, so it would be difficult to do.
"Anyway, it's a six-seater, you see they are three people in a six-seater boat......" Sun Jiahui said aggrievedly: "There are already two women on my father's boat." ”
Chen Yu looked over there with a headache, and Sun Kai just turned his gaze over and smiled: "Xiaoyu, you just work harder, and when you find the big boat on the way back, everyone will be more relaxed." ”
“……”
knocking on Nima, I haven't seen a father actually send his daughter to the wolf's mouth. Chen Yu secretly despised the other party, he was still upside down with two women in his forties, and he was not afraid that his body would not be able to bear it.
Living on such a small boat of less than four or five square meters, the most embarrassing thing is to solve the problem of physiological excretion.
The Yangtze River flows from west to east into the East China Sea, and although the river is in the opposite direction, the three people step on it together, and the travel speed is not slow.
During the day, it can be used to hurry, and at night, you can find something on the shore and tie a rope dozens of meters long to the boat, so that everyone can blow the river breeze on the boat and sleep with peace of mind.
At least, we haven't seen zombies in the water yet.
In order to make it convenient for the command to shout, Sun Kai found the kind of hand-held electric horn used by the tour guide in the Expo Park and sent one to each team leader. It can be used to search for survivors along the coast by shouting during the day, or it can be used to alert and notify at night.
On a sun-rising morning, all the members of the team happily boarded the pedal boat in a combination of two and three people, and left the shore of the scenic spot of the Expo Park with a small rowboat full of supplies.
Everyone has practiced beforehand, and this kind of pedal boat itself is not very difficult to operate, and there is a steering wheel to control the flow of water at the tail rudder. After the official departure, I was full of excitement.
Behind a dozen or a dozen four- or six-seater pedal boats are two-seater or small rowboats, driving in the middle of the river, which looks quite large.
The driving power is not only pedaling, each boat has a paddle in hand, and you can paddle with your hands when you are tired of stepping on it. The initial excitement of chasing me lasted for four or five hours, and everyone lost the mood for water play.
Sun Kai's pedal boat leaned on the outermost part of the river to observe through the telescope, and when he saw something that was easy to rescue, he reached out to rescue it, and if there were more zombies on the shore, he left it to fend for himself.
At the end of the first day, there were six more people in the team, and they just had to give them the two-seater pedal boat with a rope tied to the back.
At night, all the boats were roped to each other to prevent them from being swept away by the current, and the rope of the last ship was tied to the pier to keep the entire fleet from being swept backwards by the current without one man.
Actually, life on the ship is not bad, the night breeze is refreshing and there are no mosquitoes.
The river water is living water, and everyone can wash it luxuriously after boiling water and eating, but the place where they can sleep is more aggrieved, and they can only curl up and nap next to each other in the middle of the narrow hull space of less than one square meter.
Chen Yu was lying in the aisle, smoking a cigarette leisurely in the downwind, and there was still a cool feeling of autumn under the evening breeze, so when the two little women leaned on him to keep warm, he didn't mind.
The sound of the surrounding water was a strange one between gurgling and rumbling, and in the silence you could faintly hear the whispers of other boats around you, and the boats were up and down in the current.
"Chen Yu, are you going to leave when you arrive in Nanhu Province?"
"Of course, I can't expect anyone else to risk helping me find my parents." Chen Yu covered the wind with his hand, lit the second cigarette, took a puff, and slowly swallowed the white smoke.
"Give me a pump." Sun Jiaqi stretched out her hand from the blanket.
"You smoke too?" Chen Yuhu looked at her suspiciously, and handed over the lighter and cigarette case.
"Sister, I want to smoke too."
"Go, go, kid smack." Sun Jiaqi laughed, lit one for herself, leaned on the man's shoulder and took a sip of a cigarette, and it was like that.
Sun Jiahui said quietly: "I'm not young, I'm almost nineteen years old!" ”
She snatched the cigarette case and lighter from her sister's hand, lit one for herself, first choked on a mouthful of snot, and then inhaled the smoke into her mouth and spit it out and played.
Before she finished playing with a cigarette, she was stunned, because her sister who was chatting quietly next to her actually kissed Brother Xiaoyu and didn't take her light bulb seriously at all.
The body of a female zombie is far less active and tempting than that of a human woman, and there is no sense of estrangement between races, even if the appearance and figure are a little different, it can still make normal men lustful.
After Sun Jiaqi untied the man's belt, she released the hot murder weapon inside, and before she could exclaim in surprise, the man pressed her head down.
"Hiss......"
The long-lost refreshing feeling in the woman's mouth wrapped her soul, Chen Yu gasped slightly and leaned back on the edge of the pedal chair, closed his eyes and enjoyed, and gently stroked the hair on the woman's head with his left hand.
