Chapter 43: Rafting in the Sand Sea!
The dizziness gradually subsides.
Beside my ears was the cacophony of broken utensils and the screams and wails of the people.
Yan Jing opened his eyes suddenly, his right hand clenched into a fist for the first time, and his left hand climbed onto the side of the ship.
Each finger touched a hot, granular object.
His gaze returned to normal, and the first thing Yan Jing saw was the broken mast, the cargo boxes scattered everywhere, and the panicked crowd on the deck.
I thought it was on the sea, but when I looked at it, I saw a large golden sea of endless sand!
The undulating sand dunes like the waves, the scorching sun hanging high in the blue sky, and the nondescript looking ship beneath your feet.
The hot sand was blown on his face by the strong wind, and the ensuing stinging sensation made people frown uncontrollably.
The extremely thin water spiritual power in the air made it difficult for Yan Jing to breathe, and he only felt uncomfortable all over.
When I looked down, I saw that I was covered in a gray robe, and I also wore a hood on my head, showing only my face and hands, and this dress was somewhat similar to that of the people living in the desert today, and the other people around me were in similar condition
Why are there ships in the desert?
What's even more bizarre is that the ship seems to be sinking......
Tong~
There was a loud bang on the side of the ship, and before Yan Jing could turn his head to look, he noticed that the device that stood on the bow of the ship and looked like a watchtower was capsized, and the water tank on top of it hit the deck, gushing out a large amount of water.
The water hit the mast, and the splash of water splashed in front of Yan Jing, reflecting a series of fonts.

The water dissipates in the scorching sun.
Almost at the same time, Yan Jing felt the speed at which the entire ship was sinking suddenly quicken.
"The keel of the ship is broken, and the sand is pouring in, find the lifeboat!"
Someone rushed out of the cabin, shouting and running to the stern of the boat, causing many passengers to follow suit.
Although it is not clear how the ship got into an accident, it is always right to find a way to save your life first.
Yan Jing's current position was at the bow of the boat, and judging from the direction of the crowd's movement, the rescue boat was clearly at the stern.
Grabbing the railing to stabilize his body, Yan Jing quickly moved along the side of the ship.
Although the sand sea also has a "sea", the discomfort of his body makes Yan Jing very clear that if he falls, let alone enjoy the special effects of the bully, it is unknown whether he can survive.
Either way, grab a spot on the lifeboat first.
But just as Yan Jing ran to the middle of the deck and his eyes inadvertently swept over the desert not far from the side of the ship, his face changed suddenly!
I saw that in the flowing desert, a wave of sand more than ten meters long gradually rose, and then a brown-gray fin nearly five meters high with thorns on the surface broke through the sand and came straight to the hull of the ship!
Lu Wujin's warning did not stop for a moment.
Needless to say, there must be an extraordinarily large monster lurking beneath this dust.
In a hurry, Yan Jing couldn't take care of much, so he decisively opened Xiao Zu to accelerate, and a few ups and downs went straight to the stern.
This speed is not slow, the monster is still some distance away from the hull of the ship, but what Yan Jing didn't expect was that the number of lifeboats was far less than he imagined, at first glance, only two were still hanging behind the side of the ship, and there were people standing on them.
The scene was chaotic.
The people who had already boarded the escape boat wanted to get out of the capsized ship as soon as possible, but the people on the side of the ship held the control stick, and asked them to take themselves with them, and the two groups of people froze in one place, cursing and wailing one after another.
There is no point in forcing a squeeze through in this case.
Yan Jing decisively gave up the idea of rescuing the boat, leaning on the side of the boat to look at the situation below.
First, I saw a lifeboat with only two people cruising nearby, and I was surprised to notice that the ship sank not because it fell into a quicksand pit, but because the cabin had entered the sand as the man had said......
This so-called sand sea is really similar in nature to the sea.
Since there was no quicksand underneath, Yan Jing had a little less scruples, and directly turned around and rushed to the captain's room next to it, which was the highest part of the entire ship, except for the mast, and jumped up halfway and jumped directly onto the roof.
Raise your hand and pull the hood tightly, and then the whole person is directly attached to the roof of the captain's quarters, and his hands are clasped to the edge.
Boom!!!
As soon as he had done all this, Yan Jing watched as the giant fin crashed into the hull of the boat.
Suddenly, the sound of the ship's side and keel breaking was deafening, and Yan Jing even saw a crack in the middle of the deck that ran across the left and right, and countless sand and gravel gushed out of it like a fountain, and the fins were shuttling through it, causing a secondary impact on the shattered hull.
The inevitable backward tilt of the rear half of the ship where Yan Jing was located was once perpendicular to the sea of sand, Yan Jing leaned on the roof of the captain's room in advance and did not fall, but the people who were crowded at the stern of the boat fell into the sea of sand like dumplings, and the two lifeboats that never went down were also not spared.
At this time, if this half of the ship's hull were to be flipped over like this, Yan Jing's fate would be the same as theirs.
However, the monster's impact was not enough to overturn a medium-sized ship.
Yan Jing had observed the ship's situation when he was retreating.
Although most of the area is wooden, there is a lot of machinery on board, and the stern is where the power compartment is located, and the weight is much heavier than the front half.
In other words, as long as you can withstand the first wave of shock, there is a great chance that this side will be able to stabilize again.
Even if the sinking is inevitable, there will be a period of stability, and it is completely possible to escape elsewhere.
