morning.
The sun was scorching hot, and the rocks on the sea were boiling hot.
Dong Xuebin was awakened by the heat. He opened his eyes and looked around in confusion. He sat up holding on to the hot rocks, but the rescue team still didn't come. It's cold at night and hot during the day. The environment here is simply terrible. Dong Xuebin doesn't know how long he can hold on.
one day? The Power of Time and Wealth 496
Two days?
I'm afraid it won't be that long, he can't hold it anymore now.
Most people can persist for two or three days without eating or drinking, but that is under normal circumstances. Dong Xuebin experienced several life and death yesterday afternoon. Not only was he physically exhausted, but he was also extremely mentally exhausted. After that, he drifted in the sea for more than ten hours and was beaten to exhaustion by several huge waves. The energy and water in his body had already been almost exhausted. Hungry, thirsty, tired, and several feelings came to his mind.
Dong Xuebin In order not to consume energy, he lay motionless on the hot rocks. The clothes he took off yesterday had long been dried in the sun, so he lightly wore them on his body to resist the attack of ultraviolet rays.
I'm going to die if I continue like this.
For a moment...
Three o'clock...
Five o'clock...
Persevere, persevere, and persevere.
But as time passed from morning to afternoon, Dong Xuebin's heart became colder and colder.
Plane Crash It has been exactly twenty-four hours. According to past practice, this kind of Plane Crash incident will be broadcast on the news in most countries in the world, and the search and rescue work must have started long ago. It is impossible to abandon the plane and ignore it, but when Now, Dong Xuebin didn't even see the shadow of the rescue team. He was now almost certain that he had drifted away from the sea area of Plane Crash, and it was probably very far away from there, otherwise it would be impossible to see any news at all. Dong Xuebin has done it before and knows some search and rescue procedures and methods. Usually, the search area is expanded in a circle around the location of the incident. If the distance is too far, it is unlikely to be found.
Will the lifeguard not come?
Can't wait for anything?
Once people lose hope, it is often difficult to persevere, and at this moment Dong Xuebin is indeed on the verge of death. He is too thirsty and hungry.
Drink sea water?
No, you will die faster if you drink it than if you don't drink it.
Use distillation to turn seawater into fresh water? But there is no fire! No wood! No container!
Dong Xuebin turned over and found a bunch of keys and two business cards. His mobile phone, wallet and other items were all washed away by yesterday's waves.
Eat business cards? The Power of Time and Wealth 496
This doesn't even satisfy your fucking hunger!
The feeling of hunger was killing Dong Xuebin. If he continued like this, he might not be able to survive the night without belching, collapse, cold sweat, and weakness all over. Dong Xuebin felt that death was getting closer and closer to him, and he swallowed his dry throat. Eyes, he sighed deeply, hoping that Sister Xie Aunt Xuan and Sister Yu can find a good home, hoping that Old Yang can treat Mom better, hoping...
Suddenly, there was a loud thunder on the sea, and a dark cloud floated over!
Is it going to rain?
There will definitely be no shortage of rain on the sea. This is what Dong Xuebin is waiting for. He doesn't care about leaving any last words. He doesn't know where the strength came from. He stood up from the reef with a sigh, put on Life Jacket, and raised his neck in anticipation. Rainfall at sea usually accompanies waves. If huge waves like yesterday hit again, the two-meter-high reef will not be able to escape, so Dong Xuebin lowered his center of gravity as much as possible and supported the tip of a reef to stabilize his body.
Ten minutes later, the rain came!
Rumble, thunder, lightning, rain pouring down!
Dong Xuebin was so thirsty that he hurriedly raised his head and drank with his mouth open. Because there were too many gaps in the reef, there were no grooves to trap the rainwater. Dong Xuebin did not forget to hold up his hands to catch the rainwater while drinking. However, a pair of Hands and mouth? It turned out that the area was too large. After struggling for half a minute, Dong Xuebin drank dozens of drops of rainwater. He also poured the raindrops held in his hands into his mouth. It was still not enough. At most, it was like taking a sip of mineral water. His throat was still dry.
But at this time, the dark clouds are getting away and the rain is about to stop!
paralysis! How long would it take for him to die?
Dong Xuebin is annoyed, how can this little water be enough? Still couldn't hold on for long, so he had an idea and suddenly shouted...!
The cry of seagulls suddenly stopped!
The waves solidified, the wind suddenly stopped, and everything stopped at this moment.
Dong Xuebin There were still four or five minutes left, not much time left, so he looked at the countless raindrops still in the air in front of him. He immediately opened his mouth to bite them, and took them one by one into his mouth, five... ten... twenty... fifty... etc. After eating almost all the raindrops near the reef, Dong Xuebin was relieved of his silent meditation. Phew, as time went by, the solidified raindrops in his mouth immediately turned into water and gathered together, and Dong Xuebin swallowed it in a big gulp!
Comfortable!
La la la, the rain is still falling, and it is about to stop.
Dong Xuebin shouted again, "...!"
As soon as time stopped, Dong Xuebin continued to use his hands and mouth, biting the raindrops while grabbing the water droplets next to him with his hands. The rain was very fast, so the water droplets fixed in the air were also very dense, and there were almost five or six in one grab. Start, wait until the gathering is almost complete, Dong Xuebin is released, swallow the rainwater in your mouth, and pour the rainwater on your hands into your stomach. The feeling of quenching your thirst is so refreshing.
once...
Three times...
Five times...
Soon after, Dong Xuebin lay comfortably on the reef holding his full stomach, drank a drink to his heart's content, and felt comfortable all over. The Power of Time and Wealth 496
The water problem has been temporarily solved, and we can eat...
As he rolled his eyes, Dong Xuebin's mind became more flexible. He suddenly sat up from the rock and lowered his head to look at the sea. The shower did not bring too much wind and waves this time, and the sea calmed down after a while. The blue waves were rippling. It was also a very beautiful picture from this angle, but Dong Xuebin was obviously not in the mood to appreciate it. He blinked and stared at it for several minutes, and suddenly his eyes lit up!
There are fish!
This is actually empty talk. There are indeed fish in the sea, and there are too many to count.
But you can't catch fish here. Even if you leave a very experienced fisherman here to catch fish with bare hands without a fishing rod, no bait, no fishing, and no shit? No matter how good the technology is, there are difficulties. This is not a river, but a vast ocean! How to catch it?
But Dong Xuebin thought of an idea.
He took off Life Jacket, exhaled, and plunged into the sea with a sudden movement!
Plop, the cool seawater pressed up from all directions. Dong Xuebin struggled to open his eyes in the water. He held his breath and dived and swam around the reef. He turned his head and looked around. Half a minute later, Dong Xuebin jumped out of the sea. Whoosh, after taking a few breaths, he entered the water again, and the cycle started again. I just drank a lot of water. Although the feeling of collapse is still there, my strength has gradually recovered.
Ten minutes passed.
Suddenly, Dong Xuebin in the sea squinted his eyes, and he saw a fish. This sea fish had some spots on it. Because the light in the sea was not good, he couldn't see clearly what color it was. It seemed to be gray. Some were small, about the size of an adult carp. It was swishing its tail two or three meters in front of Dong Xuebin, with its back to Dong Xuebin, swimming very fast.
That's it!
Dong Xuebin's swimming speed is obviously not comparable to that of a fish. As soon as he reached out his hand, the sea fish was frightened away. It changed its direction and swam faster.
Want to run?
The sea water suddenly solidified around it! Time has stopped!
All objects at rest will be affected by a "static force". For example, if a mobile phone is dropped in mid-air, Dong Xuebin needs to exert a lot more force than usual to drag the mobile phone. The same principle is true for sea water. Afterwards, Dong Xuebin can walk on the sea surface without falling into the water. Now in the water, he must use a lot of force to break away from the solidified sea water and move forward.
Ten centimeters...
Twenty centimeters...
Half a meter...
Just when Dong Xuebin could hardly hold his breath, his hand finally reached the motionless sea fish in front of him and squeezed it tightly!
Lifted!
Time is restored!
The sea fish was struggling in his hands, Dong Xuebin, although it was impossible to give up. His nails were dug into the body of the fish, and it quickly swam out of the water, climbed onto the rocks, and gasped for air.
Finally got it!
Dong Xuebin slammed the fish to death, lowered his head to look at it, and began to disembowel it, removing the bones and lungs. He went into the water and rinsed the fish's blood. After taking it up, Dong Xuebin looked at the raw fish meat with some nausea, swallowed and spit, pulled out a piece of fish meat and stuffed it into his mouth.
Well, it's salty and fishy, not very tasty.
But what can he find fault with now? Eating fish fillets is better than eating business cards, right? Besides, isn't there a kind of sashimi that is eaten raw?
Eat it!
What kind of bike do you want?
Dong Xuebin I was so hungry. I didn't care whether it tasted good or not. I finished it with three strokes, five divisions and two strokes. I burped after two or three kilograms of fish meat. I was full, but my stomach suddenly hurt a little. Maybe eating it raw would inevitably lead to parasites. Dong Xuebin smiled bitterly. It hurts, it's better than starving to death, right? At any rate, I still feel uncomfortable now. This is him, Dong Xuebin. If it were another person, he wouldn't even be able to touch the fish shadow if he stopped eating fish.
Lying on the reef, Dong Xuebin looked at the sun that was about to set with nothing to do, his eyes were light, and complicated eyes flashed past.
If the lifeguard didn't come, would I have to live at sea for the rest of my life?
And even if the problem of food and clothing is solved now, the fear is only temporary. If it doesn't rain for three days, if no fish can be found, he will still die.
what to do?
How can I go back?
Dong Xuebin didn't know, it was the first time he realized that human beings are so insignificant in front of nature and cannot resist it at all.
