Section 1605 Voluntary offerings
After all, by the sea.
Between the desert and the sea there are about 6-7 km wide green areas and plants, which gives a lot of hope to all.
About 150 meters from the shore, the cruise ship turned off its engines and dropped its twin anchors.
This made Zhang Jing and Yang Wei feel speechless, according to the calculation of the voyage time, the cruise ship should have run out of fuel and not rush to the shore, do you still want to preserve assets?
It's a beautiful thought.
Roberto Baggio, the bearded captain of the ship, ordered the lifeboat to be lowered and decided to send ten men ashore first.
This scene made Yang Wei and Zhang Jing feel familiar.
"Mr. Captain," Yang Wei, who was dressed in canvas trousers, long-sleeved stretch sun-protective clothing, gray sneakers and backpacks, raised his hand and said, "Zhang and I are willing to be members of the advance team." ”
"Yes," Zhang Jing, who was always wearing a pair of well-fitting running shoes under his feet under the sun, was also in the crowd of onlookers, "We are willing to explore the way for everyone." ”
The bearded captain was pleased, and it just so happened that his crew was not so happy, "The two are very dedicated, do you need any equipment?" ”
There is no need to be polite, Yang Wei immediately made a request, "Give me a kitchen knife for self-defense and a bottle of water." ”
"Give me a fire axe," Zhang Jing was not polite, "I also need a bottle of water." ”
Encountering such a big grievance... No, when encountering such a good person, the captain naturally allowed it, turned around and instructed the crew to let them go and fetch equipment and water.
The code name Bell, that is, Joshua, a native of Tuao, knows that Zhang Jing is not a straw bag, and he is willing to rush to the front, there must be another reason.
Considering that his mission was to kill Zhang Jing, Joshua raised his hand with him, "I also volunteered to explore the way for everyone." ”
Zhang Jing looked at Joshua, who was in his thirties, with white skin and short brown hair.
I didn't pay attention to it before, only to find that his body fat rate was very low, and although his expression seemed mild, it couldn't stop the fierce aura.
"Good!" The bearded captain gave a roar, looked at the large number of onlookers and asked, "Is there anyone else willing to be the first wave of warriors to go ashore?" ”
Everyone already knew that this was a foreign land, and if they rushed ashore, they might be swept away by monsters, and they all shook their heads.
In fact, Zhang Jing also had such worries, worried about being eaten by monsters on the shore.
But if you don't go ashore first, and the land will be a mess later, it is very likely to attract carnivorous marine life, and then die even worse.
What's more, he is more effective on land and has a serious reduction in the sea.
Soon, a total of ten people, including seven crew members, began to board the dinghy.
Zhang Jingluo was at the end and said to the bearded captain, "Keeping quiet is more important than anything else." ”
"What do you mean?" Roberto Baggio, whose mouth was submerged in his beard, asked.
"Literally," Zhang Jing finally said, "remember to be quiet." ”
Climb aboard the orange dinghy, with seven crew members and Joshua, using the oars, to paddle immediately.
"Everyone," Zhang Jing stopped them from making any more noise, "please sit still, Yang and I can just row the boat." ”
As he spoke, Zhang Jing gently shook the oars.
Yang Wei cooperated on the other side, gently letting the boat move slowly.
The scene made the other eight people in the dinghy look at each other because the two Asians looked nervous.
Fortunately, it was only about 150 meters, and no matter how slow it was, it finally came ashore.
"Two by two," said the lead crew member in a blue sailor's uniform, "and come back in an hour to meet." ”
Zhang Jingtian and Yang Wei were in a group, along the side of the coast, stepping on the rocky beach, and walking due north.
I don't know if it's due north, look at the direction of the rising sun, and think it is.
"This time there will definitely not be the luck of last time," Yang Wei looked bitter with a kitchen knife in his hand, "It is likely that he will stay here forever, I am not reconciled." ”
Zhang Jing took the initiative to unload Yang Wei's backpack and hung it in front of him, "Back on the boat, there may be a chance to leave." ”
"You mean..."
"Just like the Joy of the Seas, the Queen Victoria may be mysteriously towed away and return to civilization."
"But," Zhang Jing said, "I don't recommend that you do that;
When the Ocean Joy reappeared, it was very close to the South Pole, and there was ice in every unsealed cabin at the time, suggesting that the whole ship may have been soaked in water. ”
Yang Wei's expression was stunned.
"If you go back to the boat," Zhang explained, "you might also get submerged in the water and become a corpse." ”
"Zhang, I want to take a gamble," Yang Wei paused, "Go back to the boat and lock yourself in a sturdy room that won't get into the water." ”
"Don't," Zhang Jing stopped Yang Wei from messing around, "It's really going to die!" ”
Yang Wei asked rhetorically, "You don't want to go back?" ”
"I'm a treasure hunter," Zhang Jing explains, "and I'm curious about the unknown." ”
"I don't want to live a savage life," Yang Wei said firmly, "Zhang, I'll go back to the boat." ”
Zhang Jing found that Yang Wei was playing really, but he couldn't persuade him.
Not in the mood to go further, returned to the embarkation site an hour later, and the other four squads also returned, no one was in danger, and it was generally safe.
Freshwater lakes have also been discovered.
Because there was no fresh water and no food on board, a mass landing followed.
After the Titanic, all cruise ships and cruise ships were required to be equipped with lifeboats that were consistent with the number of people on board.
Therefore, there are enough lifeboats on the cruise ship for everyone to board and go ashore together.
Looking at the dumplings on the cruise ship, which was as lively as a market, Yang Wei smiled lightly, "The captain forgot your reminder." ”
Zhang Jing didn't speak, under the sun, quietly watching the cruise ship about 150 meters away.
No surprises, the unexpected came as promised.
Just when the passengers were at their busiest, a brightly colored sea creature the size of a car with zebra stripes leaped out of the water and smashed over a lifeboat.
The person who falls into the water becomes its food.
Then more of the same sea creatures jumped out of the water and deliberately smashed the lifeboats to eat.
With the cruise ship as the center, the sea immediately boiled.
The elderly, women, and children continue to become food, Zhang Jing watched quietly, not that he was cold-blooded, but that he couldn't help.
What's more, he had already reminded the captain before.
The sea creatures here are supposed to assess their opponents by their size, and they don't attack cruise ships that are nearly three hundred meters long, but they don't let go of short lifeboats.
After a brief period of confusion, the people who had already boarded the lifeboats began to exert their strength and rowed to the shore desperately.
On the cruise, those who have not yet boarded the dinghy, give up for the time being.
It was at this time that the bearded captain remembered Zhang Jing's words - remember to be quiet.
But at this point, he had no choice but to watch some of the passengers on the boat become food.
After about 20 minutes, calm returned to the sea, and a large area of the sea was dyed red, centered on the cruise ship.
There are also some passengers who successfully rushed to the shore, and after going ashore, they were so frightened that their whole bodies trembled, looking at the lifeboats that were buckled upside down on the sea, and they were afraid, frightened and happy.
At this time, Joshua stepped forward and said, "We have just explored the neighborhood and encountered no danger;
But in case of dangerous animals at night, please collect dead wood that can be burned for night lighting, stones for defense, and fresh water for drinking. ”
In a safe environment, there will definitely be people who will jump out against it, or disobey it.
But what I experienced just now was like a purgatory nightmare, for the sake of my life, no one refused, and after a short rest, they went to execute it one after another.
And Joshua has been silently watching Zhang Jing, watching him leave the rocky beach by the sea alone, and choose to follow.
