Chapter 68 Chapter 10 Long Line (Part 2)

We finally experienced the rapid changes of the sea situation, and a sudden lightning strike in the unusually calm South China Sea completely awakened the dark air currents.Like something out of nothing, the strong wind came as soon as it was said, without any warning.A sea breeze with a strong fishy smell suddenly hit us to the top of the waves, and everyone's hearts fluctuated with the waves.I looked back at the island, it still exists clearly, but it already has a very unreal feeling, we are far away from Yongxing Island!Just a few minutes passed, and our small wooden boat was driven to the deep sea by the strong wind.When we looked back, there was only one black spot left on Yongxing Island, but our boat was still rushing towards the deep sea, and no one could control the direction of the small wooden boat.

"Go back to the island, row the boat back immediately!" Chen Jing opened her mouth and shouted with difficulty, because the raging air currents on the sea seemed to be desperately trying to crush people, and she had to open her mouth He exerted a lot of energy, but he opened his mouth and the sea breeze filled his mouth immediately, and he couldn't speak clearly. "Uncle Tian and Brother Li are still in the sea, how can we just leave now..." The strong sea breeze filled my mouth full, and it took all my strength to finish the second half of my mouth. In a word, "Besides, I can't go back now!"

The time and the situation are very urgent. Either row the boat back to the island desperately, and maybe be lucky enough to save a life, but if you row the boat out to sea to find Uncle Tian and Brother Li who are still in the sea, Then, making such a decision under such bad weather, our fate may have already been handed over to King Yama, but who should we give our insurance proceeds to?Although the former method can increase the chance of saving their lives, I still don't think I can throw them into the sea just to save myself. Although we don't know Uncle Tian very well, it is two lives after all. I really don't like it. I would like to see people I know die again, because if one person dies, there will always be another person who will be sad for him for the rest of his life. The fewer such things the better, it is best not to happen again.

We had no choice, the storm that came at any time pulled our small wooden boat to the depths of the sea, the dense raindrops surrounded us like a layer of translucent oil paper, and everything around us was blurred.However, the long line can be vaguely seen all the time beside our small wooden boat, and it still stays there, which shows that we were pulled straight to the depths of the ocean by the strong wind, so we never met the long line.I thought in my heart, instead of letting the wind blow like this and wandering around without direction, it is better to grab the long line and fix it in one place first, which is much better than really floating out of the China Sea.Although I still don't know what kind of tie the long line is, I don't know if the long line is strong, and I don't know where the other end of the long line is.So I yelled, "Row the boat to that line!"

Everyone understood what I meant as soon as they heard what I said, but the strength of the few of us seemed insignificant in front of nature due to the strong wind and waves.Our small wooden boat was hit to the top of the high waves at once, and then fell to the bottom of the huge waves at once. It felt like riding a roller coaster, and the internal organs were about to pour out from the body.Finally, a wave pushed us towards the long line, but just as we were about to approach the long line, the long line suddenly broke into countless lines, and then slowly sank into the sea.Before I had time to lament the bad luck in my heart, a huge wave suddenly rushed towards our small wooden boat from one side, and the small wooden boat was turned upside down in an instant.None of the four of us expected to encounter such an encounter. As soon as we fell into the water, we were choked by the strong smell of sea water, and our noses were acrid.

We were in a panic as we sank into the sea, struggled in the water and turned over to grab the small wooden boat.Everyone gritted their teeth and clung to the small wooden boat.The wind and waves made us sink and float on the sea. When we sank into the sea, we opened our eyes and saw the scene in black and white, unlike the plot in the movie, what those people saw when they sank into the water It is a colorful world.When I looked at everything in the water in amazement, I suddenly saw the broken long lines seem to be alive, and they all purposefully penetrated into the dark part of the sea.Countless lines squirmed at the same time, like maggots on a corpse.I still wanted to endure the discomfort on my eyelashes and continue to see what happened, but the waves lifted us to the top of the waves again.

The storm was always exciting, and it was just in the evening, and the sea suddenly fell into endless darkness.If the people on the island find that we haven't come back, it may be useless to search and rescue now.The wind and rain are so strong, and it is so dark, how could we be found.This trip to the South China Sea really cost us our lives.However, Uncle Tian and the others were wearing diving suits. If they were smarter, they would dive to the bottom of the sea to avoid it.It's pitiful for the four of us to sink and float in the sea like this, and our minds are almost fainted.I clung to the little wooden boat, but my consciousness began to fade.After the darkness enveloped the South China Sea, the water temperature suddenly dropped sharply. My hands were too stiff to move, but I was holding on to the small wooden boat tightly, and I couldn't let go even if I wanted to.

Gradually, we lose consciousness.We floated up and down in the turbulent sea, and our stomachs were filled with seawater.It feels like a car falling off a cliff, only it takes an extremely long time to fall.When life is dying, consciousness seems to be able to leave the body, which is what people often call the soul out of the body.In the middle of the night, the storm has not stopped, and we have been swept into the deep sea. On the way, my consciousness seemed to fly away from my body, and I seemed to see from the air that we had drifted over seven small sandbars of different sizes. This is Qilianyu. !Unexpectedly, we have rushed so far with the waves!

When we woke up, I could only smile helplessly at the rapid change in the weather.At this time, the sky was already bright and sunny, as if the storm had never come, and the sun was so hot that cracks appeared on the small wooden boat.I was very thirsty, but I felt that my stomach was swollen with water and hurt badly.Fortunately, the four of us are holding on to the small wooden boat, and everyone is safe for the time being.After we woke up, we looked around nervously. Except for sea water, we couldn't even see a stone!We will not have been washed out of China's territorial waters!Now it can be regarded as saying that every day should not be done, and that the ground is not working.

"Look, the surface of the water over there..." Chen Jing pointed to the surface of the sea not far away and said with difficulty. We looked in the direction Chen Jing pointed, and there were many colorful lines on the surface of the sea not far away!It's the long wire!Wasn't it disconnected before?Now countless lines slowly surfaced again, and then slowly knotted together again.This long line has been connected to the place where the sea meets the sky.This is simply a "long line"!It's just that this "thousand-mile long thread" seems to be alive, it can be broken freely, and it can be reconnected with everything, what is this thing!It seems that I have heard similar things in the modern history of the world, but is that thing really the same as ours?

"I'm so thirsty, who of you has fresh water?" Lin Yue's mouth was already cracked, and she looked very embarrassed. "Those bottles of water have been beaten to the bottom of the sea by the waves, where did you get fresh water?" Chen Jing looked very energetic. "I remember I still have a bottle of mineral water in my pocket, I don't know if it's still there?" I said while reaching out to fumble.The bottle of water miraculously remained in my pocket, and I lifted it up excitedly. "Turn the boat over first, it's not a solution for us to soak in the sea like this!" Xinhong said wearily. We all felt that what Xinhong said was right, so we all turned over the small wooden boat that was hidden in the sea together.This flip took all my strength, but fortunately, the quality of the small wooden boat made in China can really travel thousands of miles, it has not been pierced, and it can carry people!We climbed onto the small wooden boat exhaustedly, and groaned in pain again facing the scorching sun in the sky. The sun is not ordinary, the small wooden boat has cracks in the sun, and the skin of the four of us can't stand it anymore.After we drenched the boat and our bodies with seawater, we finally lowered the temperature temporarily.The next question is, how should this small bottle of mineral water be drunk? "Let's all have a bite, so that everyone has a share." I suggested, but then I found that everyone's eyes were very hungry, which made me shudder. They won't be thirsty and going crazy, right? "Let's take a sip each first, and mix the rest with seawater." Xinhong saw everyone's questioning eyes after he finished speaking, and immediately explained whether the reason why seawater can't be drunk is because it contains magnesium chloride. Drinking magnesium chloride will cause diarrhea, but the real reason why you can’t drink seawater is because the average salt content of seawater is as high as 3.5%, and its salt concentration is 4 times higher than that of the human body!After people drink a lot of seawater, although they quench their thirst for a while, the good times don't last long, and soon they will lose a lot of water in the body due to a lot of urination, which will lead to life-threatening.Because after people drink water, most of them will be excreted through the kidneys into urine, but the function of the human kidney to excrete salt is very limited. Generally, the excretion of salt cannot exceed 2%. Diluted with fresh water, it can be turned into urine and excreted from the body.This is why people feel thirsty after eating something salty and always want to drink water.For people drifting at sea, where can they find fresh water to dilute such a high concentration of salt powder? Of course, they have to absorb water from the cells in their own bodies. It will not take long for people to dehydrate and die.Therefore, sea water cannot be drunk, but as long as it is diluted to a certain concentration, it can still save life. We finally stretched our brows after listening.In fact, I have heard about drinking seawater for a long time. As early as 1966, Saito Minoru of Japan had done similar sea experiments.I saw the long line joined together again, so I said, "Let's row the boat over there and see what that thread is?" As soon as I finished speaking, I saw a few pieces of seaweed emerging from the surface of the sea.The current suddenly became faster, and we seemed to be sucked by something. The boat began to fail, and it rushed away like a distant boat.It was as if a big hole had been dug out of the bottom of the sea, and a big vortex seemed to be formed on the surface of the water!Not far away, a large cloud of black mist appeared on the sea!
