[19] Ice and fire
Lin Fan crossed most of the boat and returned to the central tower, and as soon as he entered the building, he shouted, "Girl, where are you?!" "
He searched all the way but no one answered, and finally he ran back to the room where the girl had been, but there was still no sign of the girl inside. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Not here either...... Where the hell did she go? "
Lin Fan was anxiously pacing back and forth in the room, he kept thinking about where the girl might go, and suddenly, he saw the situation outside through the window that had been smashed by the crane.
The three Great Ningen on the deck stopped banging on the water tank and looked at the side of the ship, where something seemed to attract their attention, and Lin Fan leaned out of the window to follow......
The sight in front of him almost suffocated him! I saw a slender girl in a yellow down jacket standing on the side of the boat, waving to the three-headed Da Ningen.
"Is she crazy!?" Lin Fan was stunned, he rushed downstairs desperately and ran towards the girl.
On deck, the three-headed giant Ning En stared at the girl on the side of the ship, who seemed so small in front of them, as if they could tear her apart with the touch of a finger.
Even so, the girl did not flinch in the slightest, and she kept gesturing at them, pointing to the tank, and then to a device next to the tank, and cried, "Please let me pass, I can release it!"
"Muttering" the three-headed Ning En let out a low cry, and I don't know if they understood the meaning of the girl, and one of them began to approach the girl, and reached out to grab her.
"~Be careful!" Lin Fan rushed out from the side of the tower, spreading his arms in front of the girl.
That Ning En was frightened by Lin Fan who suddenly burst out, and roared "mum", grabbed Lin Fan, and squeezed him in his hand.
"Ahh ~Please don't hurt him! The girl screamed.
Lin Fan was held tightly by Ning En, he felt a cramping pain all over his body, and his bones rattled, and all the blood poured to his head as if it was about to burst.
The girl ran to the tank desperately, trying to activate the device that opened the lid of the tank, but she had barely done it when Ning En came and grabbed her.
"Wait a minute, ahhh The girl cried out in pain, and at the same time, there was a "click" sound from the top of the tank lid, like the sound of gears turning.
"Uh-huh!" Ning En suddenly shouted.
The other two stopped and turned to look at it, and then it let out a few more "muttering" shouts, as if saying something to the other two Ning En, and the two Ning En's "uh-huh" in response, and then actually let go of Lin Fan and the girl and put them back on the deck.
Lin Fan's whole body was sore, lying on the ground and unable to stand up, the girl crawled to his side and asked with concern, "How are you?" Are there any injuries? "
He forced a smile and said, "I'm fine...... Are you alright? "
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault......" the girl's eyes glistened with tears.
Lin Fan was stunned and said, "I don't blame you......", "By the way, why did they let us go?" He asked.
The girl wiped away her tears and said, "They should be asking us to release Xiao Ningen......", she pointed to a device next to her, Lin Fan was stunned.
"Can you get up? Let's go and open the water tank together, I'll help you~" The girl stood up with Lin Fan's shoulder, and the two slowly walked to the opening device of the water tank under the gaze of the three Da Ning En, the girl operated on the device a few times, and then there was a sound of gear bracketing from the water tank, and the top of the iron grid began to slide open in all directions, and the water tank was successfully opened.
The three-headed Ning En saw the water tank open, and hurriedly crawled over to rescue the little Ning En inside, Xiao Ning En came out of the water tank with a mutter, and as soon as it came out, it rubbed against each other with its body close to the three big Ning En, just like a child who was coquettish to his parents, Lin Fan and the girl couldn't help but be a little moved when they saw this scene.
Xiao Ningen left from the three-headed Da Ningen, and suddenly crawled in front of Lin Fan and the girl, staring at the two with those big black eyes, Lin Fan and the girl were a little overwhelmed, Xiao Ningen slowly leaned his head over, Lin Fan hurriedly protected the girl behind him, it stopped where the two of them were within reach, "mum" and screamed, and an expression like a smile appeared on the strange "human face".
“…… What is it doing here? Lin Fan was very puzzled by Xiao Ningen.
"Maybe it's in ......" The girl walked out from behind Lin Fan, her hand gently stretched out to Xiao Ningen,
"Hey! Be careful~" Lin Fan said in a low voice.
The girl's hand touched Xiao Ningen's head, and it let out a soft "mum", and then shook its head and rubbed the girl's hand.
"It's a gesture of goodwill with us~" The girl smiled.
"This ......" Lin Fan was surprised.
At this time, the three Da Ning En also came around, Lin Fan was busy protecting the girls beside him, they made a low murmur at the two of them, and then each stretched out a finger to them, Lin Fan was stunned in place, not understanding their meaning at all, and Xiao Ning En on the side looked quite excited, muttering at them.
"What are they doing here?" Lin Fan was puzzled.
The girl looked at Xiao Ningen, then at the three-headed Da Ningen, and suddenly said, "Ah~ They are also showing favor to us!" ”
"What?"
The girl reached out to touch one of the Great Ningn's fingers, and the other Ningn nodded and let out an "um" sound. The girl looked back and smiled happily: "Look! Sure enough, that's the case~ You can come along~"
Lin Fan hesitated for a moment, and then also stretched out his hand to touch Da Ningen's fingers, a warm and rough feeling came from his palm, he didn't expect this white and smooth beast to feel like this, the Ning En who touched him looked very quiet and peaceful at the moment, and there was no violent and terrifying aura just now.
Lin Fan was amazed at the performance of these strange beasts, he himself didn't understand the meaning of this move, but he faintly felt that there was no danger in doing so. He and the girl communicated with the three-headed Daning En in this strange way, and gradually developed a strange sense of trust between them, they felt that the creatures in front of them were not as terrible as they looked, as if they were like humans, they also had feelings and thoughts, and could understand each other's feelings through communication.
Just as they were immersed in this wonderful communication, there was a sudden "boom" sound under the deck, and the deck under Lin Fan's feet suddenly bulged, and the huge impact force lifted the entire deck, and the explosion burst out from the deck.
Lin Fan and the girl were hit by a strong shock wave and flew to the side wall of the ship, the heat wave and gale generated by the explosion mixed with steel fragments flew everywhere, fortunately, the two of them were surrounded by the three Da Ning En in the center just now, so they avoided these fatal injuries. And the situation of the three big Ningen was much worse, their huge bodies withstood most of the impact and damage of the explosion, and one of them was even more seriously injured to protect Xiao Ningen, and the originally smooth and white back was blown into a blur of flesh and blood.
The rumbling sound resounded through the night sky, and explosions occurred one after another, and the Urashima Maru was enveloped in fire and smoke. Lin Fan and the girl curled up under the edge of the boat, and in front of them lay a Ning En, scarred all over its body, exuding a scorched smell, and a pair of huge black eyes staring at them blankly.
The other two big Ningen had already jumped into the sea with little Ningen, and they could be vaguely heard "murmuring" on the sea.
Boom! There was another violent explosion on the deck, and the oncoming heat wave burned his face, and Lin Fan could smell the burning smell of his eyebrows.
"Let's jump into the sea, we can't stay here anymore!" Lin Fan said to the girl.
"Yes!" The girl nodded.
Lin Fan looked left and right and said, "There is no life jacket here, why don't I give it to you..."
The girl shook her head violently and said, "No need, I'm very watery~ You dress well to protect yourself, and you come to accompany me regardless of the danger, I am really grateful!"
"But ......"
"Don't say it, let's go!" She said and took Lin Fan's hand, her hand was smooth and cold, but Lin Fan felt warm in her heart when she held it.
The two climbed onto the edge of the boat together, and below was the deep and dark sea, Lin Fan said: "I'll count one, two, three, and then jump together!" ”
"Okay!" The girl's eyes sparkled with a moving light.
"One, two, three ~ jump!"
Thump! A white splash splashed on the dark sea, Lin Fan plunged into the water, the icy sea water penetrated his clothes and spread all over his body, and a piercing chill penetrated his heart, making him can't help but shrink his whole body suddenly.
Lin Fan floated to the surface of the sea and spit out a mouthful of salty and bitter seawater, and he saw a yellow figure in the water next to him, it was that girl! He hurriedly pulled her up and asked with concern, "How are you!" Are you okay? ”
The girl came out of the sea, rubbed her eyes and replied, "Well~I'm fine~"
Lin Fan hurriedly pulled out a safety rope from his life jacket, handed it to the girl, and said, "You tie this rope to your hand, so that we won't be separated." ”
"Hmm," the girl took the rope and tied it to her right wrist.
Lin Fan said: "Let's go find those people who get on the lifeboat!" They were just on the other side of the boat, so let's swim over and have a look! "
"Okay~"
Lin Fan and the girl swam along the hull of the Urashima Maru, and the two swam in the cold sea for a long time, and finally came to the other side of the boat, but the sea there was dark and there was no trace of the boat.
Lin Fan shouted loudly into the distance: "Hey! Anyone! There are still people in the sea here! Please come and help us! "
"Oh Legasimas! (Please!) ~) Please come and save us! The girl shouted too.
But they shouted for a long time and there was no response.
"Huh~ They may have gone far, I'm sorry it's all my fault, Huh~ It's all about you and me." The girl exhaled as she spoke, looking like she was on the verge of reaching the limit.
Lin Fan hurriedly went over to support her and comforted: "Don't say that, it's none of your business!"
"But...... If it weren't for me, you would have gotten on the boat and left with them~"
"It's okay, we still have a chance! This has happened to me before, and in the end I survived, you have to have faith! ”
"Hmm~" The girl nodded.
The two were floating in the sea, the cold sea water was constantly eroding their physical strength, Lin Fan felt that his body was almost frozen unconscious, and the girl's condition was even worse, she would sink into the water from time to time as she swam, and in the end Lin Fan had to hold her to prevent her from drowning.
The girl's face was pale and she kept trembling in Lin Fan's arms, Lin Fan's heart sank, and now in this situation, unless a miracle happens, they will definitely die.
"It seems...... I still have to die in this sea after all......" Lin Fan looked at this dark and vast ocean, and the little flame of survival in his heart began to gradually extinguish.
At this moment, a white object suddenly appeared under the water, pushing the two out of the sea, "What! Lin Fan looked at the creature below him in amazement, it was a humanoid fish with two forelimbs, it was the little Ning'en!
Xiao Ningen let out a "murmuring" sound, supporting the two of them with its wide and smooth back, and paddled across the sea to swim away from Urashima Maru. "Where is it taking us?" Lin Fan was caught off guard by this sudden change, but he had no choice but to lie on Xiao Ning'en with the girl and let it swim away with them.
Gradually a white thing appeared on the dark sea in the distance, it was a huge ice floe, the edge of this ice floe was very high, and the terrain was very flat, and it was easy to climb.
Xiao Ningen took them to swim to the edge of the ice floe, it stretched out an arm from the water, pointed at the ice floe, and then "muttered" a few times, Lin Fan immediately understood its meaning, so he got up from its back and carried the girl to the ice floe in front of him.
After the two of them got on the ice floe, Xiao Ningen "murmured" at them a few times, and then dived back into the water, Lin Fan didn't care where it went, and sat on the ice sheet with the girl, he had exhausted his physical strength.
"Hey~Wake up~" He shook the girl beside him.
The girl reluctantly opened her eyes and said weakly, "...... Where are we? ”
"We're on an ice floe, and the little Nene brought us here."
“…… Was it that saved us? ”
"Well, are you okay?"
“…… I'm fine, it's just...... It's a burden on you. ”
"Don't say that! We're going to be fine-", Lin Fan grabbed a handful of sand from the ground and said, "Look at the ice here!" If it melts, it will be fresh water, and as long as there is fresh water to drink, we can hold on for a while! We will definitely be able to hold out until others find out about us! ”
"Uh-huh......" the girl smiled, her face as white as snow...... And there is not a trace of blood.
Lin Fan's heart sank, and he said, "By the way, I don't know what your name is......
“…… My name is Antelope......"
"Your name is Antelope, too? I know a person named Antelo, who is also on Urashimamaru, the sister of a professor I know...... By the way, that night, you said you were going to pray for your brother, what happened to your brother? Lin Fan tried his best to find something to say, wanting to keep the girl awake.
“…… I'm so cold,......," replied the girl, sleepily.
Lin Fan hugged her tightly in his arms and said with concern: "What about this?" Is it still cold? ”
The girl could no longer hear his voice, and her head sank gently into his arms......
The cold wind blew and the waves gently lapped against the ice beach.
Lin Fan sat quietly on the ice sheet with the girl in his arms, their bodies were covered with frost, as if two sculptures that had lost their breath of life were frozen on this barren ice cap.
At this moment, a black submarine suddenly appeared on the surface of the sea next to the ice floe, and the hatch of the submarine was opened, and several figures sprang out of it, rushing to the two people on the ice sheet......
