Chapter 114 Chapter 114 Storm at Sea
Gao Xingwei was so scared that he turned around and wanted to run away.
He still remembers the man's terrifying eyes, which were filled with an indescribable murderous intent, as if he had taken several lives on his hands.
I have finally survived the shipwreck and the storm, I don’t want to die at the hands of my own kind!
QWQ
However, after swimming out for only a few meters, Gao Xingwei stopped again.
He suddenly remembered two important things.
First, this guy seemed to be the one who had just taught them how to jump into the sea to save themselves; he didn't seem like a bad guy. Second, he was still holding his satellite-capable cell phone.
Wouldn't it be possible to be rescued in minutes after dialing the rescue number?
Thinking of this, Gao Xingwei's mood changed 360 degrees, and his body turned 180 degrees to swim towards the young man opposite - the sea is not as convenient as the land, even if the other party has malicious intentions, he can escape in time.
A few minutes later, the two people reunited successfully.
Gao Xingwei sneezed and chuckled, "Handsome guy, nice to meet you again. My name is Gao Xingwei, what's yours?"
"King Ox."
"Haha, ahhh, what a real..."
Gao Xingwei smiled awkwardly, wondering in his heart how could any parents name their child Niu. Even if they liked animals, they should at least name him Wang Hu.
King cattle, it sounds like a product of the last century. Cows work all their lives, and when they get too old to work they will be sold and slaughtered.
A bit unlucky.
He Junxia looked at Gao Xingwei with a half-smile. This kid thought he was good-looking, but in reality, his thoughts were all on his face, visible to anyone with eyes.
"Why, you think my name is not good?"
Gao Xingwei shuddered all over and immediately said seriously, "No, no, no, Boss, please don't misunderstand me. I just, just..."
You stupid fool, think of something nice to say.
Do you want to live anymore?
"Ah, ah, ah."
I couldn't think of anything nice to say, but I sneezed three times in a row.
Gao Xingwei lowered his head guiltily and silently distanced himself from Wang Niu. He was afraid that the other party would be unhappy and beat him up.
He Junxia didn't have time to argue with young people.
He saw Gao Xingwei sneezing non-stop while soaking in the seawater and shouted, "Come up! You'll catch a cold if you stay in the water."
The young boy's face has turned pale from being soaked in the water. If he continues to stay in the water, he will soon become unconscious.
"Ah, no need, haha, boss, ah, I'll be fine like this, that's all."
"Don't worry about me."
It’s not that Gao Xingwei doesn’t want to leave the sea, but the stool under the boss is just this small. It’s just right for one person, but it’s a bit crowded for two people.
He was still counting on the boss to lead him. He had just made a mistake, and next time he must not offend others over trivial matters.
Besides, the boss was only wearing a pair of underwear. If he sat on it, the scene would be too weird.
He Junxia raised an eyebrow: "If you want to lose consciousness and die in three hours, and have a giant form appear in 24 hours, then continue to soak in the sea."
Gao Xingwei's face changed drastically.
He shook his head and laughed stiffly, "This is so scary, Boss, I, I'm coming up."
He himself did not notice it, but He Junxia heard it clearly. His consciousness was blurred, his speech was unclear, and his hands holding the stool were shaking, and he had no strength at all.
Gao Xingwei hugged the small plastic basin in his arms tightly with a sad face: "Boss, I, I can't seem to climb up anymore, I have no strength left."
He Junxia jumped into the sea to help him climb onto the stool to rest, while she swam a circle in the sea to loosen up her stiff limbs, and then carefully sat on the other end of the stool.
The wisher's weight is about the same as that of a young boy.
He Junxia and Gao Xingwei sat at each end, which just allowed the stool to remain balanced and float on the water. Because the back of the stool was facing upwards, they could also lean their forked backs against the stool legs to rest.
"Phew, it's so cold."
Gao Xingwei hugged his arms and trembled.
He didn't feel it when he was soaking in the water, but now that he was out of the water, the cold immediately swept over him, making him shiver.
He Junxia reminded: "Take off your clothes and let them dry before wearing them while the sun is shining."
"Won't you be cold without clothes?"
Gao Xingwei was a little hesitant.
Because of the young man's help just now, he gradually let go of his fear and vigilance towards the other party, and dared to raise the questions in his heart.
He Junxia said succinctly: "Wearing wet clothes, the sea breeze makes it even colder."
Gao Xingwei's slow brain finally started to work.
"Yeah, I'm really stupid, really."
He slapped his head, quickly took off his shirt, and then lowered his head to carefully remove his trousers. The small bench swayed with his movements, but fortunately he managed to maintain his balance in the end.
This time, He Junxia didn't need to remind Gao Xingwei. He knew how to slowly wring out the wet clothes and hang them on the legs of the stool behind him to dry.
"Gurgle" "Gurgle gurgle gurgle"
After doing this series of movements, Gao Xingwei's abdomen protested strongly, one wave after another, and the volume continued to increase.
Gao Xingwei lowered his head embarrassedly. He secretly glanced at He Junxia and reached out his hands quietly to the shorts hanging on the footstool.
There are two chocolates in my trouser pocket.
Gao Xingwei hesitated whether to give half of the chocolate to the other party to thank him for his help, but his mind couldn't help but wander and doubt the other party's character.
He was afraid that Wang Niu would not be satisfied with getting half of the chocolate and would take his share as well.
After all, in the vast ocean, even if someone died, the police would not know about it, let alone just stealing a piece of food.
Moreover, there is no water or food at sea, so one less person means one more chance of survival.
However, when Gao Xingwei was hesitating, half of a slightly flattened white steamed bun suddenly appeared in front of him.
Gao Xingwei swallowed subconsciously, and seemed to smell the sweet smell of steamed buns at the tip of his nose, which caused his stomach to rumble again.
Is he dreaming?
The young boy stared at the steamed buns intently, and suddenly a sweet voice rang in his ears: "Hurry up and finish eating, you have to work later."
Only then did Gao Xingwei reluctantly move his gaze away from the white steamed bun, looked at the person holding the bun, and asked excitedly, "Are you really giving it to me?"
He Junxia smiled and nodded. When he decided to meet with the young man, he was ready to divide his resources.
And he wasn't short of food. The wisher had brought a total of twenty steamed buns, each the size of an adult's palm. Even if two people shared them, it would last at least five days.
The most critical issue is still fresh water.
The capacity of a large plastic water bottle is about 1500 milliliters, or 1.5 liters. Although it looks like a lot, it won't last for more than a few days based on the minimum daily water intake of the human body.
However, He Junxia was not completely without ideas. He had in mind several simple methods to desalinate fresh water from seawater.
As far as he could, he couldn't turn a blind eye to others' cries for help.
This is He Junxia's principle in life.
Gao Xingwei looked at the smile and concern on the young man's face, and his pale face turned red with anxiety. He had actually made such an assumption about the boss before.
Gao Xingwei suddenly remembered a famous saying his Chinese teacher had said in junior high school: "Judge a gentleman by the standards of a villain." He suddenly felt even more ashamed.
The young boy took the white steamed bun with a flushed face, lowered his head and chewed it in big mouthfuls, his cheeks bulging.
However, because he had not eaten or drunk anything for several hours, his lips had become dry and his mouth was parched. He wanted to swallow but couldn't, and the steamed bun was stuck in his throat.
Gao Xingwei was choked and rolled his eyes.
He Junxia: ...
He Junxia silently handed over a small bottle of water.
Gao Xingwei hurriedly took it and poured the water into his mouth, then he finally swallowed the steamed bun stuck in his throat and breathed a sigh of relief.
He almost thought he was going to die here.
Death is a big deal, but dying shamefully is even bigger. Gao Xingwei would rather die in a storm than choke to death on a steamed bun.
Having had a terrible experience of choking on a steamed bun, Gao Xingwei looked at the remaining steamed bun in his hand, resisted the urge to swallow it in one gulp, and chewed it slowly in small bites, making sure that the bun was completely soaked with saliva.
He Junxia didn't rush him and waited patiently for him to finish eating the steamed bun.
After Gao Xingwei swallowed the last bite of his steamed bun and licked his fingers, he said, "Let's go around the area and see if we can find anything useful."
Gao Xingwei naturally obeyed his orders.
He turned around, took out two pieces of dark chocolate from his trouser pocket and handed them to He Junxia, saying very respectfully, "Boss, please have some."
He figured it out.
Not to mention that the big boss has a noble character and is unlikely to steal other people's things. Even if the big boss has an idea, he may not be interested in the things in his hands.
He Junxia smiled lightly.
He did not refuse the chocolate that Gao Xingwei handed to him, but only took one piece, and the remaining small piece remained in the young boy's palm.
Gao Xingwei put the remaining chocolate back into his pocket embarrassedly.
The two of them worked together to paddle the wooden stool in one direction. About ten minutes later, Gao Xingwei excitedly pointed at a small black dot in the distance and said, "Boss, there seems to be something over there."
He Junxia squinted her eyes and couldn't see clearly.
Gao Xingwei was afraid that He Junxia wouldn't believe him, so he repeated it again, and said with certainty: "Believe me, I can even see the opening direction of the bottom line of the eye chart clearly. I'm definitely not wrong."
That's really good.
After He Junxia entered junior high school, he could no longer see the opening direction of the bottom two lines. He even wore glasses in high school and continued to wear them all the way to college. He stayed up late to memorize books and write papers. By the time of his internship, his IOP had risen to 600 degrees.
The two of them paddled all the way towards the small black dot.
After paddling forward for more than ten meters, He Junxia finally spotted the small black dot with Gao Xingwei's guidance. However, as they got closer and saw the dot's true appearance, they both fell silent.
Because the so-called small black dot was not a black backpack or suitcase, but a corpse wearing black clothes.
This was the first time Gao Xingwei saw a human corpse, and he could smell the disgusting stench from several meters away.
Moreover, this disgusting smell is very unique and strange. It is not like any other odor that you can smell in daily life. It is unbearable even if you pinch your nose.
Even people who have never smelled it will realize the first time they smell it that it is the stench of a corpse.
To be honest, Gao Xingwei didn't want to go there, but he still wanted to ask the boss's opinion.
Gao Xingwei hesitated: "Boss, should we go over there?"
He Junxia made the final decision: "Go ahead." Perhaps there was something they could use on the corpse.
Unlike Gao Xingwei who lives in a peaceful society, He Junxia, who has experienced the zombie world, has long been accustomed to human corpses and does not care about the smell.
Gao Xingwei paddled over with a bitter face.
He Junxia turned the body over through the clothes, and after seeing the face clearly, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
He turned out to be a member of a human snakehead gang.
