Chapter 35: The Last Eighteen Hours
At 6 p.m. on February 11, a holiday cruise ship sailing from Australia to Hawaii was sailing on the sea.
The captain and first mate were standing at the stern of the ship chatting, and they were in a good mood, because they would arrive at their destination tomorrow morning, and the trip could be described as peaceful. After rolling on this vast sea for half their lives, the old couple knows that being able to return home safely is the most important thing.
Suddenly, the first mate seemed to see something, and before the sun had completely sunk into the sea, something seemed to be moving towards them on the orange sea.
"Whatthehell......" As soon as the first mate said half an expletive, the captain also noticed something strange on the sea.
"What's that! Torpedoes? ”
"It's too far away to see clearly, and it's definitely not a ship anyway."
The captain immediately shouted to a sailor not far behind him: "Shadi! Call all those boys here, emergency! ”
Wang Xu and the three of them had run more than 120 kilometers at the moment, but fortunately, the ship was sailing towards the northeast, which was slightly close to them. But even so, they are already at the end of their crossbows.
The marathon world record is only two hours to run forty kilometers, although the spiritual ability is much stronger than ordinary humans, but three times the distance of the marathon, the physical strength will inevitably be exhausted later, in fact, their first forty kilometers did not take two hours at all, but as time goes by, people's concentration decreases, and it is already a blessing to be able to run in six hours.
When the silhouette of a cruise ship appeared on the sea level, the spirits of the three men were shaken and they launched the final sprint.
"I may faint soon, and the next thing is up to you......" Just when he was less than two hundred meters away from the boat, Qi Bing suddenly said this, and this guy said that he would faint, and the ice road in front of him stopped extending instantly.
Wang Xu has actually reached the limit a long time ago, and he doesn't know how he persevered, the Spiritual Consciousness Gathering Technique - changed to only half an hour, and then he began to use the Spiritual Consciousness Gathering Technique and the Rejuvenation Rejuvenation Technique, but after a few hours, the spiritual consciousness was exhausted, and he began to fight completely for physical strength, and the degree of unity of his spirit and body was not high, plus he had barely slept for the past few days, it was simply unimaginable to run wildly with a person on his back all the way.
The situation of the cat master was better than the previous two, but in this case he was helpless, and suddenly, he saw that in front of him, there was a piece of one meter square, relatively thick ice floes.
He instantly understood that this was Qi Bing's last effort before he passed out!
Wang Xu's speed slowed down, because there was no road in front of him soon, but the cat master grabbed his neckline from behind and accelerated quickly, leaving an extremely deep footprint in the last inch of the ice road.
There were already a large number of sailors gathered on the ship at this time, because they were still far away, they could not see the thin ice on the sea, they only thought that the three men were running on the sea, they exclaimed, thinking that they had seen the Flash.
The cat master grabbed the two people, jumped the distance of twenty meters at once, and then made a move when he touched the last piece of ice floe, so as to get a lot closer to the cruise ship.
The people on the boat were already stunned, and the captain was the first to reflect: "What are you still doing in a daze!" Why don't you go down and save people! Tell the computer room to slow down! Left full rudder! ”
…………
On the morning of the twelfth of February, Wang Xu woke up, and immediately put on his clothes and rushed out of the small cabin, where the white belly of the fish had just appeared on the sea, and he was sore and had a splitting headache, but he could not care about these things, so he grabbed a sailor and asked, "Where am I?" Where is this ship going? What number is it now? ”
The sailor couldn't understand Chinese, and looked at this superman who was rescued yesterday and was a little overwhelmed.
Fifteen minutes later, Wang Xu sat in the dining room of the ship, had breakfast with the captain and the cat, Wang Xu's English was also passable, and when he calmed down, he thanked the captain, and asked the exact time and date, and the ship would arrive in Hawaii before noon.
The captain seemed to be more curious about them, and the three mysterious Orientals had come from the sea, and he would never have believed them if he had not seen them with his own eyes, and he wished to know as much as he could about them, which would be the finishing touch in his logbook and in his memoirs that would be published someday.
The work of fooling others is naturally handed over to the cat master to complete, Wang Xu immediately went to see Qi Bing, who was still in a coma, and he finally woke up before the boat docked, claiming that he was overconsumed and there was no big problem. This made Wang Xu feel a little more at ease.
The three of them set foot on the land of Hawaii, but they did not have the slightest intention of dying in this charming resort place, Wang Xu was now more anxious than fighting, and as soon as he got off the ship, he wanted to go straight to the airport, completely forgetting that he was penniless. If it weren't for the cat master catching him, it is estimated that he would have been ambushed in the baggage compartment, or simply walked away on the landing gear with his bare hands.
The trio were invited to the local police station for tea and chat because they had no papers, until Qi Bing's family faxed all their identification.
After leaving the police station, they went to the bank to get the money, but when they arrived at the airport, a new problem arose, and there were no flights to Las Vegas for two days.
"Hey! Impossible! Check it again! ”
"Sir, I've checked, and it really isn't. If you're in a hurry, there's a flight to Nashville tonight where you can get there and have a connecting flight. ”
"No matter what the bird is, give me the ticket!" Wang Xu is only thinking about getting as close to Las Vegas as possible at the moment.
"Here's your ticket, sir, and have a nice trip to Tennessee."
After buying the tickets, they waited for the flight to take off in a depressed atmosphere, in fact, it was not that Mao Ye and Qi Bing wanted to be depressed, the key was that Wang Xu was like a dynamite now, and it was best not to provoke him more.
He dialed Chen Min's mobile phone again, wanting to confirm Shang Lingxue's situation.
"You're Wang Xu, right? What's the matter? Chen Min picked up the phone and asked angrily.
"I want a specific time and place for the wedding."
"Hey, are you ordering me? What obligation do I have to tell you? ”
"Because, Lao Tzu's woman is going to marry someone else! I'm going to get her back! He stood up with his phone and yelled.
The people in the waiting room all looked back at him, although they couldn't understand Chinese, but Wang Xu's flat roar was too imposing, it was difficult not to be noticed, and several distant security guards whispered, thinking about whether to invite him into the small black room to talk.
Chen Min was completely stunned by his voice, and this woman, who had always been very strong, replied with a trembling voice: "At nine o'clock in the evening of February 14, the roof of the Treasure Island Hotel ......."
"Thank you!" Wang Xu got the answer he wanted and hung up the phone.
"Sir, please don't make a lot of noise here." Uncle Security has arrived.
The cat master stepped forward to help him block the car in fluent English, which can be regarded as calming down the matter.
Qi Bing said: "You don't have to be too anxious, we will be able to go to the mainland of the United States tomorrow morning, and there are still more than thirty hours after getting off the plane, so we must be in time." ”
Wang Xu's expression was still very serious: "I hope everything goes well......"
…………
Perhaps God is joking with Wang Xu again, the flight to Nashville took off three hours late, and when Wang Xu arrived in this city in Tennessee, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon of February 13, and because of this episode, Wang Xu missed the only flight from Nashville to Las Vegas.
They waited until the early hours of February 14, when the news came that the next flight had been cancelled at short notice.
"Maybe you're right, even God won't help me." Wang Xu stared blankly at the notice screen at the airport.
The cat master was still sleepy-eyed, but at this time he was really tired like this, because he and Qi Bing had not rested for a long time with Wang Xu: "If God doesn't let you be with her, will you accept this fate?" ”
"What are you kidding? Even if I climb, I'm going to climb onto her red carpet! ”
Although Wang Xu said this, this world is very realistic, people always have things that they can't do, and there are still eighteen hours left before the wedding, and Wang Xu's hopes seem to be about to be dashed in this strange airport.
But this world is also wonderful, like the lore on the basketball court, the lover who defeated cancer, the baby who survived the fire, and there is a power in the dark that can reverse your fate.
As long as you firmly believe, as long as you have hope, the world will give you the best gift, and that is a miracle!
