Chapter 2: Escape
There is not much food left, and now even the only support has been scrapped, and there is no such thing as a playman. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
When more and more teenagers came to the deck, an unspeakable depression and death breath quietly spread on the deck, and some people couldn't stand this despair and cried loudly.
It seemed that they were infected, and more and more people couldn't bear the fear and despair in their hearts, and suddenly there was a cry on the deck.
The violent tremor of the hull of the ship tugged at the heartstrings of these young men all the time, thrilling, much more exciting than the bloody battle scene just now.
Mo Ran is not like everyone else, although the ship is sinking, it does not mean that there is no hope, even if it is a faint and pitiful hope, he has to grasp it, he does not want to die.
He thought that there was also an emergency self-rescue equipment on the ship, which was a necessary first aid facility on every big ship, and now he was going to find these things, which was his only hope of survival, and staying on the ship could only sink to the bottom of the sea with the broken ship and turn into fish food.
From the left chord, quickly crawl towards the middle of the hull.
Sure enough, I saw a row of small life-saving sampans in the middle, this is the only hope, with it at least now you don't have to die, whether it is possible to live in the future is left to fate.
Quickly returned to the deck, sharing his thoughts with his companions, but very few people paid attention to him, few people, and the rest of them were like soulless shells, like a walking corpse, unheard of Mo Ran's advice.
At such an urgent moment, Mo Ran couldn't take care of them, after all, his ability alone was limited. With a few teenagers who still had the ability to act and were willing to fight with him for the last glimmer of hope, he withdrew from the deck.
Now Mo Ran is the only one who has a good brain, so the dozen or so people also abandoned the previous hostility, and all took Mo Ran's horse as the head, at least this method was thought up by him, it is impossible to have no follow-up, it is more effective than those of them who are in a mess of minds.
According to Mo Ran's instructions, the others all rushed back to the cabin and carried the fruits and vegetables onto the small boats one by one, as much as they could, only sufficient food reserves could allow them to support themselves in the vast sea for a longer time, and it was more likely to get hope of survival.
Plus Mo Ran had a total of fourteen people, fourteen small sampans, each equipped with one, and the food was also sufficient, and each small sampan had a small box on it.
This would have been impossible before today, but with the vast majority of the people missing at once, it would be much more generous to divide it again.
"Listen to me, wait and push the sampan to the bow of the boat, only there can you get the fastest contact with the sea, you can't stay in the middle for a long time, and you can't go to the stern, wait until you touch the sea, listen to my orders, row out as fast as possible, otherwise you will definitely die without a place to be buried, understand?"
Mo Ran had never been so bold as he was now since he came to this ship, but now he didn't have that time to appreciate himself, the time was very urgent, and the slightest carelessness would be all over.
The group did not return to the bow deck, which was now the most dangerous place, and the bow was now unstable and could collapse at any moment due to the squeeze between the mountain and the hull.
Time passed minute by minute, it seemed like centuries had passed, it was a torment waiting for the judgment of fate, it does not mean that if you work hard, you will definitely live, and you may die at any time on the sea where there is no village or store.
As the hull becomes more and more flooded, and the downward trend of the bow becomes more and more obvious, the ship ready to cross the sea has reached the end of its life, and will sleep forever at the bottom of the sea if it does not complete its mission.
As the bow of the ship sank faster and faster, the hull of the ship was a little unbearable, and only the tooth-aching creaking sound continued to be heard, which added to the panic of everyone.
Looking back now, you can clearly see that the stern of the ship has been lifted out of the sea, and you can clearly feel it just by tilting your feet without looking.
Mo Ran quietly calculated the time silently in his heart, judging from the current sinking speed, the time was about to come, although he looked very quiet and calm, but how could he calm down in his heart, after all, it was the moment of life and death, and it was enough for a fifteen-year-old young man to be proud of his peers, even compared to most adults.
His composure made the other thirteen feel a lot better, after all, he was the leader of this escape, if even he didn't have confidence, then what else could he expect?
The cold sea water began to flood the deck, which made the group of dejected children directly blow up their hair, and ran to the cabin desperately, what a group of poor people, will it be safe to run to the cabin?
However, Mo Ran didn't remind them, there was no need, and now he was still too busy to take care of himself, how could he have time to build the floating slaughter tower? Saving people's lives is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter, and when I can't save the seventeenth level, I still don't save it.
Their minds were scattered, and they were already frightened, and if they were to save them rashly at this time, they might all be dragged into the water and die together.
He calmed down and watched everything around him closely, and his every decision decided the life and death of fourteen people, including him. It's not that his leadership skills are strong or charismatic, it's just that other people have a muddy brain and don't have any ideas at all, so it's better to believe in him, and now he is the last straw for all.
Mo Ran roared in his heart: "It's now!"
"Quickly push the boat into the water, step on the side of the boat and push it out, be sure to hold on to the edge of the boat, after pushing it out, climb up immediately, regardless of the direction, and stay away from here at full speed!"
With Mo Ran's shouting, everyone acted immediately, although the tension in their hearts could almost drown them out, but they still forced themselves to stabilize their minds and did what Mo Ran said.
But not all of them can do the series of actions that Mo Ran said, there is always a gap in strength, not to mention that some of them have been seriously injured before.
This is a place close to the wound on the bow of the ship, and if one falls unsteadily and fails to catch anything, it will be swept directly into the turbulent sea water that flows into the hull, and the fate is self-evident.
A whirlpool has been faintly formed here, and nothing can be seen on the surface, but the sea has already churned wildly beneath the surface. The silence of the surface and even the counter-thrust of the whirlpool was the only support for them to escape from here.
There was a young man who didn't hold the boat steady at the moment when the boat fell into the water, causing all the food to fall into the seawater.
In a very short period of time, the strength and weakness of an individual's reflexes can be seen, and some people simply can't keep up with the rhythm and are instantly submerged by the sea.
In this escape, only six of the fourteen people finally managed to get out of the big ship, not even half of them, which shows how miserable it is, but now no one can care about helping others, although they have successfully escaped from the big ship, but they have not escaped from this area, at this time the middle of the hull can no longer stand so much pressure and begins to crack, and when it is completely unable to support and break, if they fail to escape the scope of the impact, then they still can't escape the end of being swallowed by the sea.
Everyone is desperate to row outward, and they don't care about taking a look at the others, they just hate their parents for not giving them an extra pair of hands. At this time, time is life, and this sentence has become the truest portrayal.
The sound of the ship's hull breaking behind them came and went, and it was like a magic sound in their ears, and the slightest pause was inevitable. Their hands were repeating the same movements almost mechanically, regardless of fatigue and soreness, if they couldn't escape, they wouldn't have a chance to hurt in the future.
The big ship behind him finally couldn't support the gravity imbalance at both ends after the seawater poured in, and the strong gravity tore it apart alive, and the back half of the boat from the middle to the stern was almost all floating out of the sea, but now it suddenly had no support, and the gravity drove it down at a rapid speed.
An almost thunderous roar exploded behind him, and the hull of the ship fell to the sea, smashing up endless waves, and the back waves pushed the front waves until they radiated to the periphery, and two slow rowers were unfortunately swallowed up by this wave, and disappeared in an instant.
A few small sampans were crumbling under the waves, and although they had rowed a long distance, the ups and downs of the aftermath were still difficult for them to maintain, as if they could be overwhelmed at any moment.
When the waves finally subsided, looking back, only a small part of the original invincible ship was still exposed on the sea, as if it was announcing its last existence to the world.
The people on the ship don't need to think about it and know what the fate will be, and they are glad that they have successfully escaped while also feeling the fragility of life, in the face of the vast world, human beings are so small, so fragile, and vulnerable.
It was then that they remembered that they had been scattered, and that the aftermath of the sinking of the ship had been pushing them on until they realized that they had been separated and that they could see nothing but the rocky peaks of the reef that were still standing.
The four people who escaped by luck were all scattered, and it was unrealistic to find a person in the vast sea than to find a continent.
In fact, they didn't go far, but the sea and sky made it impossible to see the surrounding situation clearly, not to mention that there was a non-stop wave impacting the small sampan, and at present, saving the small life was the first place, and the rest of the things were left to fate.
Mo Ran was lying on the small sampan at this time, because he knew that the wave just now had pushed them away, and he only knew that there were four people who escaped, but it was too difficult to get together in the vast sea, and even whether the four of them could survive in the end was a problem, at this time, he was exhausted and just wanted to have a good rest, and it didn't take long from the beginning of the escape to the end of the escape, but the physical strength consumed in it was unimaginable.
What's more, he also spent a lot of energy calculating and speculating, and it was already a great luck in misfortune to be able to support it until he successfully ran out.
