Xie Lin's scanning range was not as wide as Guagua's. As soon as he boarded the ship, he released Guagua, which was responsible for the sea in front of him.
As everyone waited anxiously, they finally saw objects floating on the sea: clothes, shoes, firewood boxes, tobacco pouches, and so on.
But seeing these things doesn't mean you're close to the ship. Indeed, on the vast, boundless sea, their ship remains all alone.
Time ticked by, but they found neither a boat nor any rescue vessels. Under the afterglow of the sun, the sea shimmered, and the sparkling water made everyone's hearts race with anxiety.
Especially as the afterglow faded and the moon gradually rose higher, everyone's heart sank even deeper.
"Xie Chou Dan, at a 45-degree angle to the right front, quickly place the eldest and second eldest in the furthest position you can cover, and make them move forward at high speed. Some people have already fallen, and those who are supporting each other are also about to give up. The ship is starting to sink."
Xie Lin's heart skipped a beat. "Quack, how much further?"
"How far? 3 kilometers. They're just inside my scanning range. Hurry, they won't be able to wait for our ship."
Xie Lin felt a jolt in his heart, wishing he could teleport there instantly.
Immediately alerted by the approaching space, I informed the eldest and second eldest of their locations and released both into the water.
Eldest brother, second brother, dozens of lives are in our hands.
It's easier to get away with something at night than during the day.
"Lu Fan, change course, turn right 45 degrees, and proceed quickly."
"receive."
A light returned to Zhao Xiangting's dejected eyes. "Deputy Regiment Commander Xie, did you figure something out?"
With the vast ocean stretching out before him, he felt utterly lost and his heart sank to the bottom.
He hated himself for being so incompetent; if he had held on earlier, he could have gone back to get help sooner.
"Battalion Commander Zhao, I made that judgment based on the direction of the movement of objects on the sea and the wind direction just now."
"At first I wasn't sure, but just now when I looked in that direction, my heart clenched hard. Something felt wrong. Maybe it was just intuition."
"I completed my last and the missions before that perfectly based on my intuition, believe me."
Zhao Xiangting: ...Why are you acting a bit strange?
Perhaps he should really believe it.
As the boat sailed on, his physical exhaustion and weakness gradually subsided, sustained by his belief in finding his brothers.
Now, his heartbeat is more active because he has a direction.
The team members naturally trusted their captain, who had performed miracles before. They believed that a miracle would happen again this time, and began to prepare for the rescue.
Old Tao looked up at the sturdy back and took the warm ginger soup and porridge away from the stove.
Shishi and Xiaoshi also noticed that more and more objects had fallen from the seabed, confirming that the incident occurred nearby.
but......
Shishi beckoned to the head of the family and whispered, "Stinky Egg, there are guns and lots of bullet casings underwater. A war has broken out here."
The young teacher pointed to a spot and said, "Brother, there are bullet casings over there, as well as a short knife and an arm. The arm is still very fresh."
Xie Lin's heart tightened, and he immediately checked the situation underwater.
I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw the fabric on the arm, but my heart tightened again when I saw the rough wooden gun and the bullet type.
There are pirates here, and judging from the intensity of the fighting, they are numerous.
The boat that came out to search had an accident, and the short knife was the evidence; it belonged to their camp.
The brothers are in grave danger now that they've lost an arm.
Using a map and compass to determine the direction, the flashlight beam eventually landed on the nearest island.
That area is not under our control.
"Quack, how are things going with the eldest and second eldest?"
"Don't worry, they just held people up and won't drift away from the boat. But just now, the last one couldn't hold on and fainted."
"They are all heroes. Even when they were unconscious, they did not abandon their brothers. Each of them held onto the ship's railing with one hand and hugged their brother with the other. Their hands were worn raw, because they were afraid that if they let go, they would cut off their brother's path to survival. It is truly remarkable that they have survived until now by relying on their life jackets."
"In such a desperate situation, not one of them gave up. Xie Choudan, the soldiers of our Dragon Kingdom are the most admirable heroes."
"I detected that each of them has a heartbeat, although it is weak. Our ship will arrive in a few minutes, and there will be time to rescue them. Don't worry."
That's good.
This side is stable, but there's still one side to go.
"Quack quack, project your screen here."
Without saying a word, Guagua did as instructed, then suddenly screamed.
"Holy crap, Xie Chou Dan, there are so many pirates here."
Xie Lin's heart sank. "How many pirates are there? Have they seen any of our men?"
"At least fifty or sixty, brother. Didn't you patrol this island? Such a huge oversight."
"I haven't seen any of our people yet. Damn, there's Curly among them. Holy crap, it's Ben! It's Ben! Thank you, you stinky egg. They seem to be having a great time chatting. They must be cooperating with the pirates."
Xie Lin stared at the conspicuous foreign man on the screen.
The screen of the quack was unaffected by the darkness, and he could clearly see the man's face.
The reason I recognized it was Ben was because Lu's space contained many photos, including not only photos of Lu and Ben together, but also photos of Ben and Sun Xuexiang embracing Lu.
Given Sun Xuexiang's overly obsessive love for Ben in that world, it's not hard to recognize that the man in the photo is Ben.
So the man leading the curly-haired group on the island right now is Ben.
Why is he here?
Is this fateful destiny, destined to cross the ocean and eventually meet and get to know Sun Xuexiang?
"Quack quack, let's find our people first and see if they're in any danger."
The presence of pirates and foreigners in the sea was not due to negligence on the part of the patrol team, but rather because the island in question was outside the area under our patrol.
"Okay, I'll look, I'll look, oh my god, that scared me to death, thank goodness."
Xie Lin was startled by its sudden outburst, "Try to be normal."
"I'm perfectly normal. I just saw someone with a missing arm and thought they were one of our own, so I got scared. But then I saw their clothes and realized they weren't one of our own."
"Thank you, you stinky egg. Our men are all tied up. An entire platoon is here. Poor thing. They have machine guns with multiple rounds of ammunition. No wonder our men got caught."
"The man with the missing arm was waving a knife in the air, his smile was somewhat perverse, and it was quite eerie in the firelight."
"Oh dear, six of our men are injured. Although none of them are missing an arm or a leg, it's still pretty bad."
Xie Lin: ......
"What's the key point?"
"Oh, the point is, our people are safe right now, but they might not be safe the next moment."
Xie Lin was speechless; this guy was really good at hurting people's feelings.
Worry, it's not within his reach yet, so there's nothing he can do about it.
Both sides are brothers, what should I do?
"Hey, you idiot, throw a cannon! Didn't you get a lot from Lu? Throw a cannon and make them pay attention to our people, then they won't attack us."
"Let's rescue the people who fell into the sea first, then we'll go rescue the people who were captured."
Shishi had somehow gotten closer, and in a flash, she came up with a solution—to distract him.
