Chapter 46
Storms and thunderstorms, lightning and lightning, and huge waves were rippling on the sea surface.
In the face of this huge natural force, any human power seems extremely small.
The life raft is like a leaf, appearing and disappearing in the huge waves, flying and bumping, not swallowed by the waves.
In this case, it is difficult to catch a life raft than climbing to the sky, let alone driving it.
This is true. At this time, Chen Qiaoqiao was tightly grasping the cable tied to the life raft. Her body was no longer in the raft. She just used the buoyancy of the life raft to allow herself to occasionally expose herself to the water surface and use it to change her breath.
The situation of Bai Xinghua and Xu Lin is similar. They both hold the rope tightly and fall on the edge of the life raft with both hands.
Even so, with the huge waves hitting, the three women were shocked and could lose consciousness at any time and be completely swallowed by the waves.
Compared with life rafts, armed merchant ships are not much better. They sway and bumpy left and right. People stand on the boat as if they are riding a roller coaster, and are thrown into the air from time to time, and then fall down violently. Not long after they land, the merchant ship suddenly tilted sideways, and the human body also tilted, falling to the ground, sliding sideways along the inclined surface, and hitting the bulkhead heavily, causing a lot of pain. Before you could react, the hull suddenly tilted towards the other side, and you slid towards the other side of the cabin again, and you encountered a ruthless impact again.
In such a bumpy cabin, it is difficult for people to stand, let alone fight.
As soon as Qin Long got into the cabin, a crew member slashed at him with a tool axe.
Qin Long had no time to react too much and rushed to the side. As a result, the hull was tilted and he hit the bulkhead heavily. He held it in for a long time but couldn't recover.
The crew was not much better, and fell to the ground and grabbed the axe and slid to the other side of the cabin.
Qin Long slid towards the crew along the tilted floor. The crew raised his axe high, his eyes shining fiercely, waiting for the rabbit to come to him and be chopped.
In a critical moment, Qin Long turned around suddenly, the silver dancer aimed at the crew member and fired three shots, causing the crew member's forehead to explode and the plasma exploded.
"boom--"
The hull suddenly leaned backwards, and the crew's body hit Qin Long, and the yellow and white objects touched his head and face, which was extremely disgusting.
Without having time to worry about this, Qin Long kicked the body away, grabbed the balance rope on the bulkhead, and touched the front cabin.
In the front cabin, Johnson, the old captain, and two crew members were all terrified at this time, but they were not injured because there were many soft sand seats in the front cabin and seat belts. They were all nestled in the seats, wearing seat belts, and letting the hull sway, but they would not be hurt.
"Zach, find a way to dock, or I will kill you!"
Johnson shook and screamed. Until this time, he was still holding a sniper rifle in his arms and a pistol in his right hand.
The old captain Zach tried his best to control the rudder, but in the face of such a harsh climate, all operations were in vain. He didn't know which direction the merchant ship was heading, nor what direction the sixth place was. He could only try to distinguish the direction of the wave head and sail towards the front of the wave head. In this way, he could at least stabilize the hull and prevent the hull from tilting too much.
However, at this moment, Johnson, who was almost vomited out of his heart, shouted at him and even threatened to kill him.
Zach was full of disgust and thought to himself that if you hadn't insisted on chasing me, why would a real man have to go through a storm? Would I have encountered such a thing?
Zach turned his head suddenly, glared at Johnson, and said evilly: "Johnson, if you don't want to die, just shut up!"
Zach's tough response made Johnson look ashen, but he still shut his mouth tactfully. After all, at this time, if you want to survive, you can only rely on Zach.
However, what surprised Johnson was that after Zach scolded him, he did not turn around and continue driving the boat. Instead, he opened his eyes and looked at Johnson's back in astonishment.
From Zach's expression, Johnson immediately noticed the danger and subconsciously wanted to get up and look behind. However, he suddenly zipped forward, but failed to get up, but was pulled back to the seat by the seat belt.
At this moment, a bullet penetrated the back of the chair and hit John's new vest, leaving a blood hole in his chest.
Johnson vomited blood and slowly lowered his head to look at his chest, gritted his teeth and struggled to untie his seat belt, but a big hand walked around the back of the chair and grabbed his neck suddenly, then twisted it hard, and there was only a crack sound. Johnson's eyes turned pale and he died completely.
"Enemy attack!"
It was not until this time that the old captain Zach reacted, roared, picked up the shotgun from the operating table, turned around and shot at Qin Long.
"Bang!"
The shotgun that lost its correctness due to the shaking of the hull made the seat next to Qin Long explode into a ball of white flowers.
Qin Long rolled on the spot, picked up the pistol that Johnson threw on the ground, lay on the ground, grabbed the chair legs with one hand and fixed his body with the other, holding the gun with the other, aiming at Zach for three consecutive shots.
Zach's body was stiff and thrust, two blood marks exploded on his chest, his eyes turned pale, his fists tightened hard, and finally fell to the ground.
The moment Zach threw himself down, the remaining two crew members opened fire at Qin Long.
The cabin was full of seats, and there was no way to aim effectively. Both crew members were holding submachine guns, holding the back of the chair with one hand to maintain balance, and holding the submachine gun with the other hand to shoot at Qin Long's hiding seat.
"Dadadada—"
Two submachine guns formed a cross-fire network. Although they had no accurate head, the bullets were splashed like rain. No matter how capable Qin Long had, it was impossible for him to dodge them all.
"Puff--"
Two muffled sounds, Qin Long was shot in his arms and calf, and his whole body twitched in pain and blood flowed into the water.
However, even so, Qin Long gritted his teeth and grabbed the back of the chair and continued to hide, motionless and humming, as if he was dead.
Faced with this situation, the two crew members swept a shuttle of bullets and couldn't help but look at Qin Long, wanting to see if he was dead.
At this moment, Qin Long suddenly stood up, raised his hand and shot two times, blasted a crew member's head, then turned the gun, aimed at the other crew member, and shot all the bullets in one breath. Until he saw a piece of blood flowing out of the last crew member, he breathed a sigh of relief and fell heavily to the ground.
The storm was still there, and the ships were jogging and floating on the sea like leaves. Qin Long had no time to breathe and had no time to treat the wound. He shook and carried a roll of life-saving ropes and rushed to the deck.
"Crazy--"
The huge waves hit the face, and the pain was so painful when hitting the body, like the slaps that countless people sucked at the same time, causing severe blows to the body and spirit at the same time.
Qin Long held the railing tightly, his body swaying back and forth under the impact of the waves, swaying left and right, and even standing was extremely difficult, let alone trying to rescue Chen Qiaoqiao and the others.
In desperation, Qin Long could only use a cable to tie his body to the railing, barely stabilizing his body. Then he glanced at the churning sea surface and tried to find Chen Qiaoqiao and the others.
However, huge waves surging, heavy rains are pouring, and strong winds are roaring. At this moment, just opening your eyes is exhausted, let alone looking for someone?
Qin Long sighed in his heart, could he say that Chen Qiaoqiao and the others were going to be swallowed by the sea?
Qin Long was unwilling to give up and couldn't bear it. He took a few deep breaths, raised his hand to wipe off the rain from his face, and with the last trace of willpower, he finally saw a small black dot on the waves beside the boat.
It must be Chen Qiaoqiao and the others. Under the impact of such huge waves, the life raft and the merchant ship were among the few objects on the sea, and they eventually collided naturally.
"Catch the rope!"
Qin Long used all his strength to roar, and the sound penetrated the wind and rain, suppressed the thunder, and finally fell into the ears of Chen Qiaoqiao and others.
After the roar was over, Qin Long gritted his teeth and threw the lifeline towards Chen Qiaoqiao. Then his head tilted and fainted.
...
I don't know how long he had been sleeping, but Qin Long was finally awakened by a violent bump. When he opened his eyes, he realized that he was lying on the floor of the front cabin of the merchant ship. A blanket was laid under his body, but it was all soaked, which made him feel extremely uncomfortable. The sea water was cautiously entering the wound, as if the bites of an ant, it hurt and itchy.
Two canvas straps crossed through his chest and legs, tightly tying him to the legs of the chair on both sides, fixing his body.
Even so, as the hull tilted and bumped, he was still as if floating in the clouds, dizzy, his stomach swelled, and his vomiting felt strong.
After looking up, Bai Xinghua and Xu Lin were sitting on the seats on both sides of him, with seat belts on both sides of his chest, barely maintaining the stability of their bodies, but their faces were very pale, especially Xu Lin, who held the chair tightly with one hand and covered his mouth from time to time with a trace of transparent Jin Ye from time to time. She was almost spitting out her bile.
Looking at the bridge, Chen Qiaoqiao was struggling to control the rudder. She was wearing Qin Long's coat, barely wearing two snow-white long legs, gritting her teeth and grabbing the rudder, trying to stabilize the hull, but it didn't work at all. The hull was still swaying and made people frightened, as if it would capsize at any time.
Looking out of the porthole, the sky outside was dark, dark clouds pressed against the top, and thunder came from time to time. Lightning flashed in the clouds, and the raindrops hit the glass, making waves of "slap" sounds, but the sound was soon overwhelmed by the huge waves that were rushing towards the face, turning into a dull and terrifying roar of water.
Qin Long took a few deep breaths to relieve his mood. He knew that he could only leave the will of fate now, and human resources could not change anything.
He closed his eyes and wanted to sleep for a while because he was too tired, lost too much blood and was extremely weak.
However, just as he was about to be like water, a cold coldness came from under him, forcing him to turn his head and look in the side. Then he realized that a layer of sea water half a foot deep in the cabin was the rear cabin.
"I've been killed. The window in the back cabin was broken by me and became a breakthrough for the sea water. What should I do now? If I can't block that window, I'm afraid everyone will be buried at the bottom of the sea because of this!"
As Qin Long spoke, he subconsciously clenched his fists and shouted at Bai Xinghua: "Let me go quickly!"
