Chapter Forty-Three: Deadly Drifting
Li Xiaobai dimmed the light of the flashlight in confusion, and shone forward, just in time to see Cao hit a one-person high empty iron can against them, Cao teamed up and the other soldier did not have the right tools in their hands, so they could only reluctantly kick the iron can away with their feet, but the effect was not good, and the iron can still hit his body before slipping away from the side.

And the Cao team, who was hit, obviously had a bad face!
The soldier opposite the Cao team was also flushed, you must know that the faces of the others are now white and purple from the cold, which is very abnormal!
This immediately made Li Xiaobai realize the danger and seriousness, and when he saw Team Cao, they all turned their heads and signed suspiciously because of the lights shining on them.
Li Xiaobai didn't hesitate any longer, looked at Lu You with an inquiring gaze, and after getting his nod of affirmation again, he immediately took out the walkie-talkie and shouted loudly: "Brother Cao!" Hear me? We're going to turn around, and Lu You will go up in front! Did you hear that?! We're going to turn around, and Lu You will go up in front! ”
There was silence on the walkie-talkie for a while, and Li Xiaobai continued to repeat loudly.
Just when Li Xiaobai was about to repeat it for the third time, Team Cao's voice finally came from the walkie-talkie: "Okay! Talk to the people next to you and get them ready! ”
After a pause, Team Cao continued: "Say thank you to Lu You with me!" Let him be careful, we can do it instead! ”
When Li Xiaobai heard Team Cao's words, he looked at Lu You with a strange look in his eyes, and replied loudly: "Okay! I'll tell them now! ”
This time, Team Cao replied quickly, and immediately said, "Received!" Let's talk to the people here, and after three minutes, I found an opportunity, and we will work together! ”
On the surface of the torrent with unknown road conditions, it is really not easy to turn around, Li Xiaobai and the soldiers of the Cao team are explaining the situation loudly to the ordinary survivors around them, so that everyone can be prepared so that they will not fall off the chain when they turn around and have any accidents.
And more importantly, the Cao team also needs to try to see the situation in front of them as much as possible, and try to choose a period of time without debris to turn around, if something happens to hit me when making a U-turn, the consequences may be devastating!
After waiting for five minutes, the people on the raft were already mentally prepared, and they only waited for Team Cao's order to start moving immediately.
The waiting time is torturous, and drifting down the river is already very uncomfortable for everyone, almost everyone choked on several mouthfuls of water, plus all kinds of fears, and the physical fitness almost feels like half of his life has been removed.
"It's now! Let's get started! ”
In order to better see the situation in front of them, Team Cao also specially turned on another flashlight, allowing the two survivors behind him to hold it and shine it forward, and when they saw that there was no debris nearly ten meters in front of them, they spoke decisively!
There are six walkie-talkies, two in the front, two in the middle, and two in the tail, but only half of them are open, and the other three are used as backups.
Hearing the order of the Cao team, several soldiers and Li Xiaobai hurriedly gestured to everyone, and immediately everyone worked hard to make the raft turn!
Lu You didn't exert his strength, just rotated with the raft, his strength was still not well controlled, and he was a little worried that he would pull out the mess too hard, and he stared closely at the water next to him, preventing accidents.
It is the undercurrent that pushes the raft forward, and when it moves forward vertically, the speed of the raft is already very fast, and at this time, it is suddenly turned around, and as soon as the force area increases, everyone can immediately feel a pressure rushing from behind!
And the raft, which turned at some angles, was immediately washed sideways, and the speed did not decrease but increased!
The row of people on the back was directly washed by the waves and lay on the raft, while the one opposite them was even worse!
The current was turbulent, even the well-trained soldiers could not react much faster, and Lu You was also here, facing the rushing undercurrent, and his body was rushed backwards.
If it weren't for Lu You's quick reaction and grabbing the raft at once, even if he wasn't carried away by the big waves, his body would definitely lose his balance!
And Lu You was able to react so quickly, because his [Fatal Boost] passive skill was stimulated again.
The others were not so lucky, there were 9 people on this side, and a few of them were holding on to the raft all the time, but there were still five people who were directly washed away, and one of them reacted faster and finally grabbed the raft.
There are also two people who reacted quickly by the people around them, pulled a hand, and were not washed away, and the two people who saved the two people were Lu You and Cao Team!
Lu You swept the big knife back directly to the guy next to him, not only did it take him a lot of effort, but the guy who was rescued must not be comfortable, but life was critical, as soon as he got close to the raft, he immediately fell on his stomach, which was considered to have temporarily saved his life.
As for the last two people, they were not so lucky, Lu You's eyes were sharp, and when he saw a soldier, he didn't react, and he rushed to the torrent, and he directly pulled the rope on his body, took it away in a wave, and disappeared into the darkness in front of him!
There is also an ordinary survivor, his rope did not break, but he was washed into the water, completely drowned, constantly struggling, if not immediately rescued, life and death are unpredictable!
Lu You didn't dare to delay any longer, so he made a decisive effort, and turned the raft again while everyone was still adjusting!
It is much more difficult to turn when traveling horizontally than when walking vertically, and Lu You does not dare to use brute force, so he can only pull along the current, fortunately, Team Cao should have thought of it with him, after he saved someone, he said loudly to the people around him, when Lu You pulled the raft, he could obviously feel that there was another force helping, and finally succeeded in turning the raft again!
This time, however, was much more dangerous than before, and when the raft turned into a vertical line, everyone had to work together to stabilize it, and not let it continue to turn, or else it would probably become sideways again, and in that case, the doom would only repeat itself.
After a fatal accident, several soldiers completely woke up twelve points of attention, desperately trying to stabilize the swing of the raft, and the other survivors also knew that this was the first test of life and death, if they didn't want to be wiped out, they could only do their best, or at least not lose their hind legs.
Finally, with the unity of everyone, the raft once again floated smoothly and vertically.
At this time, everyone was relieved, remembering that the raft had sunk into the water several times just now, but they were not too flustered, and they still tried to stabilize their bodies despite the continuous choking of water, and everyone felt a little incredible.
