Chapter 013: Wen Ming, who was abandoned

Harvard's winter break has completely ended, but as first-year freshmen at Harvard University, James, Cage, and David have not returned to school to continue their studies.

"It's my fault, if it's not for what I want...... He wouldn't have dragged Wen Ming to sea with us, and if he hadn't gone to sea, he wouldn't have suffered a disaster. ”

James's mood is still very low, because he puts all the blame on him.

Cage and David, who were sitting next to him, looked at the sea at the end of the beach with very sad expressions. How they wished they could see a ship sailing from a distance, and on the bow of the ship, there was a sound figure.

Harvard University had already opened, but the three of them stayed in Miami. Because they want to stay here and continue to look for Wenming.

After a close encounter between Tornado and the yacht they were on, they were pleasantly surprised to find that the eight of them were fine!

Yes, although the yacht was already dilapidated, and they could only squeeze into the bottom of the yacht that had turned over, except for Wen Ming, the eight of them were very safe.

Someone was a little injured, someone was exhausted, but because they had already sent a distress message, the rescue team came quickly.

When they learned that they had been hit by a tornado head-on and that eight people were safe, everyone on the rescue team was shocked.

Including many reporters, they were also shocked by this incredible news, if it wasn't for Cage seeing the opportunity early and letting the beauties of the five special professions leave quietly in advance, then the value of this news is definitely greater.

"They are right, all eight of us are safe, God has blessed us, how can we pray that all nine of us are safe?"

David slapped the sand in front of him in frustration, and the splash of sand was blown onto Cage and James' by the sea breeze. But these two people seem to be unaware.

More than a week had passed since they were shipwrecked, and after hearing that another person had been blown away by a tornado, the rescue team politely searched the nearby waters for two days.

After that, there was no more action.

Because no one believed that two days after being blown away by a tornado, they would be able to survive the endless sea.

But at the time, James and Cage and others believed very much, or rather, they didn't believe that Wen Ming would suffer such a tragedy. A few days ago, his parents died in a car accident, and now he has been shipwrecked and disappeared into the vast sea.

"Doesn't Wen Ming often tell us that there is a saying in his motherland in China: If you don't die in a great disaster, you will have a blessing?"

Because of this sentence, James, Cage and others rented a yacht again, and even contacted some friends to search the sea near the tornado.

From the beginning of the search in the sea, to the target of those uninhabited islands. This shift in goal also proves that there is less and less hope in their hearts.

Ten days later, James and the others' friends also left, leaving only the three of them.

Today they are not going to sea, not because they have given up, but because they have no money.

As students, even though their family conditions are good, they are only middle-class in the United States, and it is difficult for them to charter a yacht for a long time.

"Go back, I want to wait here a little longer."

James covered his face with his hands and whispered, "It's all my fault, it's all my fault......"

Cage patted James on the shoulder and said, "It's not your fault, it's not the fault of any of us, it's all God's fault." ”

As a Christian, Cage said such a thing, which undoubtedly proved the grief and indignation in his heart.

He still can't believe why 9 people went to sea together, but when they came back, there were only 8 people left. The person who disappeared was Wen Ming who they wanted to help.

David's face was a little ugly and said: "Let's go back together, the search and rescue team didn't help us find Wenming at all, and we don't have the money to continue looking for Wenming here." ”

In ten days, even though they had not completely given up hope, they were really powerless.

Originally, students who have not really entered the society have been able to persevere until now because their ability to bear it is strong enough.

Cage and James were silent, and the two of them had this idea in the past few days. However, none of them said it.

Cage stood up from the beach and said, "If Wen Ming is still alive, he doesn't want us to stay here forever." ”

……

Wen Ming never thought that he had waited for ten days and had not yet waited for the search and rescue team, the main reason was that the search and rescue team was unwilling to search and rescue, on the grounds that he was definitely dead.

"Isn't it said that the Americans are very efficient? Doesn't it mean that Americans never give up and don't abandon it? ”

Wen Ming on the isolated island, after ten days have passed, he still looks like a human, and he has not become a wild man.

However, his heart became more and more desperate.

After ten days of hard work, Wen Ming no longer worried that he would starve to death or die of thirst.

More than a dozen 'buckets' made from leaves and twigs allow him to store rainwater for more than five days. According to his observations since arriving on the island, it rains every two to three days, and there are even three days when it rains every day.

In terms of food, he had found several edible berries in the woods, even eggs from many species of birds, and the sea had plenty of seafood. For a short time, he didn't need to worry about food.

What he feared most was that he would be trapped on this isolated island forever.

Even, it doesn't take forever, as long as it takes half a year or a year or so, he may die alone on an isolated island because of some kind of disease or lack of certain nutrients in his body.

"To Nima's America."

Wen Ming looked at the wolf smoke rising from the beach, and after scolding fiercely, he went back with his harvest today.

Of course, he doesn't live on the beach now, and on the fourth day he lived on the beach, he was almost swept away by a high tide. After that, he had to go into the woods and find a suitable place to live.

On top of several huge stones, Wen Ming was covered with hay and a 'shed' was built on top of it.

This 'shed' is no more than 60 centimeters high, and the entire side is open, and the shelter is only enough to sleep with a sound sound.

To be safe, he set a fire around the rocks.

Within a radius of nearly ten meters, it was scorched black. If it hadn't been raining at the time, Wen Ming might have burned all the plants on the island.

In addition to this, he found several insect-repellent plants in the woods, and lit several fires around him every day before going to bed.

It's a hassle, but after all, you have to keep yourself safe.

Carrying the 'seafood' harvested today, Wen Ming returned to his residence, this isolated island is not large, and he has almost completed all of it. The largest animal on the island is the sea turtle that climbs up from the sea.

"Will it be a while before I burn everything that can be burned on this island?"

Wen Ming would raise wolf smoke every day, trying to find out and come to his rescue.

But ten days passed, and he did not receive any rescue, nor did he find any passing ships.

He threw the red-hot stone into the tortoise's shell, and Wen Ming threw some wild vegetables and fish into it.

Without seasoning, the resulting fish soup is a little too tasty.

"Could it be that I was blown far away by a tornado? Out of their search? ”

After thinking about it, Wen Ming only came up with such a reason, but deep down he didn't accept it.

"How far can a tornado? If it really goes beyond the scope of the search and rescue, then how can I not die? ”

With common sense, this is indeed an incredible thing, so Wen Ming can't accept it.

However, one day in the future, he will understand why he has suffered such a catastrophe and why he has not been rescued in a short time.
