【Chapter 131, Endless Seas-06】

Cruise ship Caribbean Sea, cockpit.

Wearing a cloak of invisibility, Yu Hanjiang stepped into the house as soon as the door was blown open by the wind.

The captain and the deputy captain were checking the equipment on the ship in despair. The ear-piercing sirens of “Didi” sounded continuously in their ears. The young deputy captain’s voice trembled and said: “Captain, there is no signal, we can’t contact the shore!”

The captain said with a calm face: “Continue to dial the rescue center, we need emergency support!”

A red warning icon appeared on the LCD monitor screen in front of the ship. The hull has been seriously tilted, and the mechanical sound is frantically prompting: “Navigation system failure!” “Communication system failure!” Over 40 degrees, there is a risk of overturning, please correct as soon as possible!”

The blood on the face of the old captain was lost.

Outside the window, the nearly 50-meter-high giant wave is getting closer and closer to the cruise ship. If the ship cannot be quickly stabilized, the giant wave will be photographed again, and it will be worse. The crumbling cruise ship will be completely overturned by the giant wave——

The deputy captain said: “This ship is not saved, Captain, let’s run!”

The captain gritted his teeth and stared at the huge waves in the distance, clenching his fists tightly.

The deputy captain grabbed his collar and snarled loudly: “Think about your wife and children, they don’t want to see your body! The cruise ship equipment malfunctioned, and it happened to be hit by a typhoon. This ship is no longer saved. Abandon the ship and escape! Did you hear me?!”

The captain was taken aback, and after he recovered, he immediately ordered: “Immediately organize the evacuation of the tourists!”

The gray-haired old captain made the cruise ship begin to whistle. The short, continuous whistle sound represented that the cruise ship was in danger. He immediately picked up the microphone next to him and said at a very fast speed: “Guests, our The cruise ship’s equipment failed and encountered extreme typhoon weather. Please put on your life jackets as soon as possible, follow the directions marked on the ship, and go to the stern to find an escape boat to evacuate…”

This broadcast by the captain caused the crowd still in confusion to burst into screams!

The crowd fled towards the stern of the boat like crazy. Many people lost their shoes, hats, and sunglasses in the crowd. Yu Hanjiang, wearing a cloak of invisibility, went to the third floor with few people, grabbed the railing, and quickly crawled along the railing to the stern .

At this moment, a hurricane hit, accompanied by huge waves–

The huge wave of more than 50 meters high, like a building collapsed, suddenly shot down and hit the ship’s hull!

All the tourists who were still on the aisles and on the deck were thrown to the ground by this huge wave. Some people were washed down the fence and fell into the sea. Some people clung to the fence with one hand, and their bodies were blown out by the wind. While crying loudly: “Help…”

However, the tourists were too busy to take care of themselves. No one had any extra hands to hold him. The man hanging on the fence was quickly overturned by another wave, fell into the sea, flopped twice and disappeared.

The cruise ship continued to tilt, the flagpole inserted on the deck was blown down by the wind, and the flag of the Royal Caribbean, which represented the identity of the ship, was blown out and floated far away on the sea. The angle between the entire ship and the sea level is already less than 30 degrees, and the tourists simply can’t stand on the ship, one after another screams and heart-piercing cries resounding in their ears.

Yu Hanjiang’s pupils shrank slightly—not good!

The complete capsize of this cruise ship is the destined result.

His body moves faster than his brain thinks, and he jumps into the sea without hesitation–

Almost the moment he jumped down, the seven-story behemoth fell completely into the sea with a “boom”!

Many passengers who had not had time to escape were pushed into the sea by the cruise ship, and their desperate shouts came to an abrupt end!

The fallen cruise ship was gradually submerged by the sea, some passengers were injured, and the original clear water was stained red with blood.

The challenger team who grabbed the escape boat were all swiftly avoiding the huge waves.

However, some people obviously can’t sail. The escape boat spins around the sea out of control, like a headless fly, being lifted high by the huge waves coming and overturned suddenly.

The challenger team was thrown into the sea like dumplings, swimming hurriedly to rescue teammates, the crowd frequently burst out swearing, and the voices of scolding the ace of spades appeared endlessly, and even a full-spirited male voice directly snarled at the sky: “Fuck. Mar’s ace of spades, I dig your eighteenth generation ancestral grave!”

Challengers around: “…”

This buddy has obviously lost his mind. Does the ace of spades have an ancestral grave?

Xiao Lou was not in the mood to pay any attention to them at all. Lao Mo was driving the boat attentively. His skills in driving the escape boat were first-rate. Under his control, the escape boat shot out of the sea like a sharp arrow. A few clever turns, there were no dangers. Avoided the huge waves!

He parked the escape boat far away, and Xiao Lou nervously said: “Lao Mo, Team Yu is still on the ship!”

Mo Xuemin said: “I know. The wind and waves over there are too big, it will be very dangerous if we go back, we still wait for him in a safe place.”

Xiao Lou, who had always been calm, looked at the terrible situation in the distance, and his body couldn’t help but tremble slightly. He knew rationally that Lao Mo’s actions were correct, but Xiao Lou couldn’t help but worry.

Seeing that he was in a bad mood, Shao Qingge hurriedly stretched out his hand to lightly hold Xiao Lou’s shoulder, and said: “Professor Xiao, don’t worry, because of the Yu team’s ability, it is impossible to drown in the sea. I believe he will come back safely.”

Xiao Lou took a deep breath and nodded stiffly.

In the distance, the cruise ship had completely turned over, and the blood on the sea continued to spread, screaming and crying endlessly, Xiao Lou stared in the direction of the cruise ship without even blinking, searching for the familiar figure everywhere.

There was rumbling thunder above his head, and a few flashes of lightning split the dark clouds. Xiao Lou’s whole body was soaked, as if a cloud of cold wind poured into his heart. His eyes were blurred by the mist, but he still tried to stare into the distance, for fear that he might miss Yu Hanjiang.

Probably the reason for “care is chaos.” Knowing that Yu Hanjiang would not be so stupidly drowned in sea water, but there was no trace of Yu Hanjiang in the crowd, Xiao Lou was still very nervous, clenching his fists, and even breathing became worse. difficult.

These short minutes seem to have become as long as centuries.

Liu Qiao set off a Kongming lantern. This is the lantern she used in Liuxi Village. It can be raised to determine the position. She did this to let the chaotic Yu team quickly locate their ship.

I don’t know how long it took, Xiao Lou suddenly heard a familiar voice in his ear: “I’m back.”

Xiao Lou turned his head abruptly—-

I saw Yu Hanjiang used his hands and feet together and quickly climbed onto the escape boat. The man’s black hair was wet on his forehead, and his clothes were soaked in sea water. He looked a little embarrassed, but his expression was very calm, and his dark and deep eyes were still full of confidence.

Xiao Lou was ecstatic in his heart and didn’t know what to say for a while.

Shao Qingge smiled and joked: “Team Yu, please report that it is safe. Professor Xiao may be worried about it.”

Yu Hanjiang looked at Xiao Lou and met his bright eyes.

Xiao Lou’s ears were hot, but he looked at Yu Hanjiang with serious eyes. He had obvious joy in his eyes and smiled and said, “It’s good to be back! Why has Team Yu been there for so long? Is it okay?”

Yu Hanjiang felt warm in his heart and said softly, “It’s okay. I went to the cockpit and looked at it. The ship’s sudden tilt was caused by equipment failure. Originally, this giant cruise ship could survive the typhoon, but it happened that there was a problem with the equipment, the captain. It can’t be saved. The broadcast allows everyone to escape. I saw many warning lights on the console. Obviously, the capsizing is a certain result.”

He went back to confirm whether the cruise ship could continue to be used. If you can survive the typhoon, there is no need for everyone to rush to escape in an escape boat. After all, the cruise ship is more stable and safer. But now that the ship capsized has become an inevitable result, everyone can only choose the second option.

Ye Qi couldn’t help but complain: “Does this mean that we are going to float on the sea in an escape boat?”

Old Mo smiled bitterly: “It’s good to get used to it. The week of spades won’t make people feel good.”

Xiao Lou asked concerned: “How did you find us at such a long distance?”

Yu Hanjiang said: “I have good swimming skills and large lung capacity. I can hold my breath underwater for up to 2 minutes. Before the boat capsized, I jumped into the sea and swam along the Kongming Lantern hanging by Xiao Liu. You didn’t see me. It’s because I was wearing an invisibility cloak just now.”

Seeing that he looked calm and unhurt, Xiao Lou finally felt relieved.

After yesterday’s diarrhea incident, 20% of people left on the “Starry Sky”, so the number of escape boats provided by the “Caribbean” is sufficient. As long as you don’t panic when encountering a typhoon, calm down and grab the escape boat. Avoid the center of the wind and wave when the huge waves are coming. Don’t blindly drive the escape boat into the sea whirlpool. The probability of surviving the storm just now is not low.

Xiao Lou looked around. The challengers had been prepared, most of them snatched the escape boat and survived.

Poor nearly a hundred tourists who didn’t know anything about it. They just came out on a cruise ship to play, but they encountered such misfortune.

Nearly 60% of the tourists died in the shipwreck. It was in the afternoon. Most of the tourists were playing in the entertainment center or watching the drama in the grand theater. When the disaster happened, they had no time to escape and were taken by the overturned cruise ship. Into the bottom of the sea. Only some tourists who responded very quickly grabbed the escape boat at the first time.

The rain was pouring down, and Yu Hanjiang looked far away-behind the escape boat, a vortex suddenly appeared on the sea swept away many people’s lives; on the right was the ship that had just been overturned; they could only continue to move forward.

Fences, wooden boards, and girls’ silk scarves that were blown off by the wind are floating on the surrounding sea, life jackets that have not had time to put on, some plastic bags for food, and some shoes and bags lost during the escape… and The corpse of the drowned person floated to the sea.

The typhoon crossed the border and was messy.

For the first time, many people looked away from the scene of such a tragic disaster.

Yu Hanjiang asked in a low voice, “Are you all injured?”

Everyone shook their heads.

Yu Hanjiang said: “This typhoon overturned our cruise ship and forced us to float on the sea with an escape boat. There are still 5 days before customs clearance. Will the escape boat have enough oil?”

When everyone heard this, their hearts suddenly hung up.

Lao Mo quickly looked down at the pointer on the dashboard and said, “The fuel tank is full.”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief—it was really scared by the ace of spades. What if they managed to snatch an escape boat, and ended up walking a few kilometers and running out of gas, wouldn’t it be desperate? Fortunately, the ace of spades is not so excessive, the fuel tank of the escape boat is full.

Yu Hanjiang looked at the light that gradually appeared in the distant sky, and said: “There is a whirlpool behind him, we can’t make it through for the time being, we can only go forward. Everyone straighten up and get ready to go.”

Xiao Lou calmed down at this time, sat back in his seat, and said, “First count the supplies.”

The supplies were in charge of Ye Qi, Long Sen and Qu Wanyue. Soon, the three of them checked their backpacks and replied: “Everything to eat!” “I have all the medicines here.” “The mineral water is enough. .”

Xiao Lou said: “Thanks for your hard work, let’s sail the boat.”

Mo Xuemin smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I have learned how to drive an escape boat. Leave it to me!”

Lao Mo drove the escape boat quickly towards the east.

After observing the environment, many challengers around have also made the decision to “continue to the east”.

Dozens of escape boats gradually moved out of this sea area.

Behind him, the “Caribbean Sea” cruise ship has completely disappeared on the sea level, leaving only some wooden debris floating on the sea. Xiao Lou does not know how the crew on board is, nor is he aware of this sudden disaster. How many lives were taken…He didn’t have time to think about it, and he didn’t have the ability to save others. The teammates are all safe, this is the only thing worthy of his gratitude.

Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou sat side by side in the second row.

The escape boat had already driven some distance, and seeing Professor Xiao’s face pale, Yu Hanjiang couldn’t help but gently stretched out his hand, held the back of Xiao Lou’s hand, and whispered in his ear: “Just now, I left the team alone, so you worried, did you? ?”

Yu Hanjiang still can’t forget, the moment Xiao Lou saw him, his eyes were bright.

Professor Xiao was so concerned about his safety, Yu Hanjiang was a little surprised, and when he saw Xiaolou’s bright eyes, he was suddenly enveloped in a warm emotion. The two had known each other for a while, and Yu Hanjiang had always thought that Xiao Lou only regarded him as an ordinary teammate. He was similar to Mr. Shao and Ye Qi – but at that moment, Xiao Lou’s eyes couldn’t deceive people.

He suddenly discovered that Xiao Lou treated him differently. The two people’s feelings were deeper than those of the other teammates, and the trust and understanding between the two were more than those of other teammates.

Thinking of Xiao Lou’s concern, Yu Hanjiang couldn’t help but promised in a low voice: “Don’t worry, I won’t put myself in danger. We agreed to go back together.”

Just after being soaked by the heavy rain, Yu Hanjiang’s palm was full of rain.

With his wet hand holding the back of his hand lightly, Xiao Lou’s heartbeat was like a drum for a moment, and he dared not look at Yu Hanjiang’s eyes. He pretended to calmly and said, “It’s fine. I’m not particularly worried about you. I believe Team Yu will be safe.” return.”

The corners of Yu Hanjiang’s lips raised slightly, and he clenched his hand and said, “In the future, we will try our best to act together. I will not leave alone again to make you worry.”

Xiao Lou knew that Team Yu holding his hand simply expressed trust in each other, but he just couldn’t control his heartbeat. Yu Hanjiang’s fingers were slender and strong, and it would feel safe to be held. Xiao Lou didn’t want to struggle, nor did he control his heartbeat. Dare to hold back, and can only froze in place.

However, Yu Hanjiang sensed that his actions were too intimate, and took the initiative to release his hand.

Xiao Lou’s ears were slightly hot, and he lowered his head and said nothing.

Sitting at the back, Shao Qingge watched this scene with a smile, touching his chin thoughtfully.

In the front row, Lao Mo suddenly pointed to the distant sky and said, “The rain is about to stop. Look, the dark clouds are dispersing.”

Everyone looked up–the dark clouds covering the sky gradually opened a gap in the middle.

The sunlight splits the sky like a sharp sword and spills onto the sea.

The clear blue sky slowly spread in everyone’s field of vision like a blue ribbon, the dark clouds were completely dispersed, and the bright sun shone down, sprinkling a layer of warmth on everyone.

Everyone was relieved.

Long Sen said: “There is no danger! Fortunately, Old Mo can sail.”

Mo Xuemin said helplessly: “I have been in the secret room for more than half a year, and I have become an old driver. Not only can I drive an escape boat, I can even drive a plane, and I have paid to study, and I can also use a parachute.”

Long Sen laughed and said, “Then you are really a decathlon!”

Mo Xuemin sighed lightly: “No way, what if you encounter an air crash in the future and need to skydive? It doesn’t hurt to prepare in advance. Never underestimate the perversion of the Ace of Spades.”

Qu Wanyue also smiled, and said, “There are no dangers, but we have passed the typhoon smoothly, right? Everyone has worked hard.”

Ye Qi took out the mineral water from his backpack and said, “Come on, take a sip of water and be shocked!”

The expressions of everyone were much more relaxed.

However, as everyone knows, this is only the next day.

After the typhoon, there may be other disasters waiting for everyone.

There is still no end in sight of the boundless sea, and their drifting journey on the sea has just begun.
