Lin Wu heard it more clearly.
She moved her ears and could even vaguely hear the hurried footsteps of many people walking back and forth on the deck. Some were shouting to reef the sails, some were hurriedly pointing to change the direction of sailing, and it seemed that someone was shouting at others to contact their own people for rescue as soon as possible.
The sound of wind and waves hitting the hull is the clearest.
This shipwreck was so severe that the crew tried their best to remediate the situation, but it was of little use. The hull was almost submerged by the surging sea water and it was difficult to maintain balance.
Suddenly - Lin Wu heard the sound of the ship's plank cracking.
The trapdoor outside opened, and someone at the entrance called out to everyone inside to come out. But before he could finish his words, a large amount of sea water rushed in, and the cabin became wet.
Moreover, the planks of the ship began to crack one after another, and those people also discovered it.
They cried and scrambled to climb up the stairs to escape.
Lin Wu listened and it seemed that the ship was shaking, the guidance failed, and the engine was damaged, so they had to use their own small lifeboat to escape.
The goods in the ship were collected with great difficulty and were to be sent to a specific place. They were reluctant to throw away all of them, so they wanted to take some away.
Lin Wu listened carefully, and when everyone went out, he immediately broke open the box and jumped out, turning into a human form and landing on the ground.
Unexpectedly, most of the cabin was flooded by sea water.
There were many large cracks in the ship's planks, and seawater was pouring in continuously.
Lin Wu hurriedly took off her clothes on the boat, dragged her bag and swam to the stairs, but found that the trapdoor was closed. She pushed it and felt that there was noon on it, probably pressed down by the rolling waves.
Lin Wu didn't care anymore and turned directly to the broken deck. He kicked the crack hard to make it bigger, and then went out against the pressure of the sea water.
At this time, the hull had already sunk halfway to the bottom.
Lin Wu swam upstream and floated to the surface to breathe. He looked around and saw that the rough sea was littered with wooden boards, instruments, tables, chairs, barrels, etc., all of which had fallen from the boat.
The hull also lost weight and fell downward, with one end lifted high up, and many people on it calling for help.
Not far away, two lifeboats were full of people.
They no longer cared about the people on the boat and tried their best to row away to avoid the wind and waves. However, it was very difficult. They were driven around in circles by the fierce wind and rain and were extremely anxious.
Lin Wu recognized at a glance that on one of the boats was the unconscious Bai Jing. A little boy was holding her in his arms, too nervous and scared to move.
But there is no her as a child.
Lin Wu looked around for help.
Finally, she simply bit her finger, dipped it in blood, made a hand gesture and pressed it on the tattoo, then closed her eyes and felt it carefully.
...Yes! She was in the sea when she was little!
Lin Wu took a deep breath, dived down, and swam towards the direction of the weak sensing reaction.
She swam very fast, and soon a little girl with her hands and feet tied appeared in her sight. She had fallen into a deep coma.
Lin Wu quickened his pace and as he got closer, he discovered that her body was incredibly hot.
The high fever hasn't subsided yet.
After all this trouble, it’s hard to say whether we can survive.
Lin Wu frowned, holding her in his arms and swimming quickly upstream.
At the same time, she recalled in her mind how she survived this crisis when she was a child. She couldn't remember it. She didn't remember the general memory of the shipwreck at all, and she forgot how she got better.
After a while, Lin Wu floated to the surface and saw a large wooden board not far away, big enough for the little girl to lie on. She stretched out her hand and sucked the board over. This was much easier than swimming over by herself.
Then Lin Wu put the person up, and he also propped himself up and sat on the edge, and quickly gave the little girl artificial respiration.
Don't die here!
Otherwise, everything that happened later would not have happened.
The consequences are immeasurable!
The little girl was almost out of breath, but fortunately after nearly a minute of effort, she finally choked out a few mouthfuls of sea water and had a faint breath.
Lin Wu continued until her breathing became normal, then stopped and patted her back to help her recover.
Look around again.
The ship has sunk.
A few people saw Lin Wu and waved their arms to ask her for help, but the next moment they sank because they could not hold on.
The two lifeboats were left as small black shadows in the distance.
But Lin Wu was not worried.
She remembered that when she woke up as a child she was still on the boat, so there would be more boats coming.
Before that, she had to get better as a child, otherwise it would be difficult for her to survive what happened later.
Lin Wu frowned and looked down at the little girl. She was covered with bruises and her face was a little purple.
She didn't bring any medicine with her wounds, so no one treated her.
What should I do? Lin Wu thought about it for a long time, and suddenly remembered that in the Damaya Underground Palace, when the snakeman licked her wounds, she could recover.
Logically speaking, aliens have no healing effect on the tribesmen who have not yet been alienated.
But maybe... it's because the blood power she possesses is different from that of others, so she is a little special?
Never mind, let’s try it first.
Lin Wu transformed one of his hands into a claw, and used his sharp nails to forcefully scratch a line on the palm of his other hand.
Blood gushed out immediately.
Lin Wu used a little force to pry open the little girl's mouth, dripped his own blood into it, and pinched her chin and throat to make her swallow it.
Perhaps she was not used to such a strong smell of blood. The little girl frowned in her coma and struggled slightly, but was held down by Lin Wu and could not move.
Thinking that he had fed enough, Lin Wu stopped, licked the palm of his hand, and the wound began to heal.
She stared at the little girl.
Suddenly, Lin Wu felt that the little girl's body temperature seemed to have dropped a little! It worked! Seeing that the little girl's complexion had improved a lot, Lin Wu breathed a sigh of relief, let her go, and then transformed into a beast form and surrounded her, gently biting the tip of his tongue, and licked the more serious wounds on the little girl's body with blood.
This apparently worked, and the little girl's wounds began to heal.
Before we knew it, the storm had subsided.
Lin Wu waited until the little girl was almost fully recovered and her body temperature and complexion returned to normal before he changed back into human form and hugged her.
The little girl's breathing became much calmer.
Looking at her, Lin Wu hesitated.
Next, she should perform soul-retrieving.
But splitting a complete soul would be extremely painful.
Looking at himself like this now, Lin Wu felt very strange and somewhat reluctant.
But thinking about the people who were still waiting for her to return in the dungeon, Lin Wu gritted his teeth and finally cast the spell, extending the magic into the little girl's eyebrows.
As soon as she touched the soul, the little girl instinctively struggled in pain.
Lin Wu was afraid of hurting her further, so he held her down hard and finished the soul-taking as quickly as possible.
The soul that was taken out was faint white, and Lin Wu carefully melted it into his heart.
Suddenly, the little girl with cold sweat on her forehead groaned, and at the same time, her shoulders became unusually hot.
Lin Wu unbuttoned her collar with a sense of something, and saw faint outlines of patterns, emitting a faint blood-red light, covering the little girl's whole body.
This alleviated the pain of her soul being taken and made her feel much better.
Lin Wu's mood became even more complicated.
She fed the little girl some of her own blood to make sure she would get better completely.
In the end, Lin Wu's face turned pale due to blood loss.
She was just about to take a break when her ears suddenly moved and she turned her head to look into the distance.
A black ship is approaching.
Lin Wu took one last look at the little girl, let her go, leaned back, and sank into the sea.
