Chapter 17 Finding Leaks
At this time, Chu Qiao was sitting on the edge of the lifeboat, trying to appear calm. The previous blow had almost used up all her strength.
After a short break, he shook his head and said to the netizens in the live broadcast room: "Don't think that I am amazing just because I beat the shark away. In fact, under normal circumstances, humans are inferior to sharks in terms of endurance, physical strength, combat effectiveness, and ability to withstand blows."
"Today's victory is because Dabai and I both understand its fatal weakness, which is the eyes. Therefore, our attack target has always been the eyes, rather than engaging in a head-on battle with the tiger shark."
"Of course, the big white was also very brave. He bought me time and distracted the shark, allowing me to make a feint and attack in the west, giving me time to hurt it with my hook."
"Anyway, Master Chu is awesome."
"Dabai is also great, give my Dabai a hug."
…
After the fish in the lifeboat were hit by the shark, there were only a few left. She quickly swallowed a small fish with few bones, grabbed the foam board, and glided manually.
After all, great white sharks are mobile prey that attract sharks all the time, and tiger sharks are more active at night, so they must go ashore as soon as possible.
The wind direction keeps changing, and Chu Qiao can only rely on himself.
"Master Chu, something is wrong, please stop."
"Master Chu, look at the lifeboat."
Chu Qiao concentrated on paddling and only noticed that the lifeboat was sliding slower and slower. He did not hear anyone shouting at all.
It was only when Feng Ge’s private message came that Chu Qiao was pulled back to the live broadcast room.
"Master Chu, why does the lifeboat seem to be more listless than before?"
Chu Qiao looked down and saw that the place where he was sitting was soft and sank.
Oops, there's a leak.
This was probably caused by the shark hitting and biting the lifeboat.
Chu Qiao had no time to complain.
Although she is a good swimmer, if she really falls into the sea, the cold water and the attacks of many dangerous fish in the sea may make it difficult for her to see the sun tomorrow.
Chu Qiao made a quick decision and jumped into the sea.
Although the drone is waterproof, it cannot really take pictures in the sea.
The drone lost its target for a moment and circled around the lifeboat. The strange scene made the atmosphere in the live broadcast room even more tense.
Some newcomers who were attracted by the title of number one on the list saw Chu Qiao diving as soon as they came in and couldn't help but make sarcastic remarks.
"This woman is decisive and has no attachment to this world at all."
"I've always told women not to show up in public. Even God can't stand it."
When someone said this at this critical moment, Brother Feng immediately stood up.
"Master Chu is facing a huge crisis right now. If you don't want to watch, you can get out and shut your stinky mouths."
"Don't bring your worldly perspective to Master Chu's livestream. Master Chu is the only woman in this world I admire."
"Brother Feng is mighty."
“+1.”
"Ditto."
Netizens who usually lurk in the live broadcast room all agreed. In fact, when they first watched Chu Qiao's live broadcast, they also came to laugh at him, but the more they watched, the more they found that Chu Qiao was different.
At this time, Chu Qiao had sunk to the bottom of the lifeboat. Her usual diving record in training was 15 meters deep and holding her breath for two minutes.
But the prerequisite is to have a diving goggles. At this moment, it is difficult for her to open her eyes in the sea without any protection. In order to find the leak point, Chu Qiao forced herself to open her eyes.
The water was clear, but the pressure and the stimulation of the sea water made her feel stinging.
She did not stop and began to check every part of the lifeboat. Small bubbles were constantly coming out from the right side of the bottom of the lifeboat.
Chu Qiao went over and temporarily pressed the leaking point with his hand.
The leak was about two centimeters in size and the air was leaking very quickly.
Just a minute or so after Chu Qiao came down, the waterline of the lifeboat sank again.
Both Baymax and the drone circled around the lifeboat.
Chu Qiao surfaced with her wet hair draped over her shoulders. Water droplets slid down her tall nose bridge to her collarbone. Her thin collarbone was sunken with some sea water in it, like a clear spring, attracting people's attention.
"Although I know Mr. Chu is very dangerous, I am still distracted. Mr. Chu's collarbone is so beautiful."
"Whether you have culture or not, that's called being able to raise fish with your collarbone."
Chu Qiao blinked hard, and the tears secreted from his eyes diluted the burning sensation.
"I don't have time to explain it in detail. To put it simply, there is a 2cm diameter leak at the bottom of the lifeboat. The air chambers around it have no leaks. If the bottom of the lifeboat leaks completely, the air chambers around it alone will not be able to support my weight.
"There are no professional tools to repair leaks now, so I can only try to slow down the leaking of the lifeboat."
As she spoke, she picked up the foam board and forcefully broke off a small piece of foam, about three centimeters long and wide. As the lifeboat deflated, the ballpoint pen parts that Chu Qiao had hidden in the crevices of the boat were scattered throughout the boat.
Chu Qiao touched the pen body and rubbed the edge of the foam block with one side, trying to polish the edge into a neat and round shape.
"That way, when you use it to plug the leak, it will be tighter and reduce the gap."
Chu Qiao took a deep breath and sank again.
The drone lost its target again and started chasing Dabai's butt.
Chu Qiao's calm appearance just now reassured the netizens in the live broadcast room, and the atmosphere was no longer as tense as before.
Everyone started discussing Roombai's butt.
"Chicken butt tastes good. How does an albatross butt taste?"
"You'll know if you smell it."
"I'm throwing up. I'm eating. Can you be more civilized?"
"I'm quite civilized, but Mr. Chu is still using bird droppings as a facial mask?"
"Is this true?"
Brother Feng took the opportunity to attract new members: "Newcomers to archaeology, please join the fan group to watch the replay, the complete video of Mr. Chu's survival at sea is waving to you."
Chu Qiao was at the bottom of the boat, tearing at the leak with force, making the original 2-centimeter leak a little bigger.
But the rubber used to make the kayak had low elasticity and high hardness. Chu Qiao tore it for more than a minute before it expanded slightly.
Suddenly the small bubbles grew bigger and surged out.
At this time, in the water, Chu Qiao's face was flushed due to holding his breath, and his brows were furrowed.
She quickly stuck the foam board in the middle of the leak and used the thickness of the foam board to block the leak.
Chu Qiao had been in the sea for four or five minutes, and she felt dizzy due to lack of oxygen.
Chu Qiao shook his head, kicked his legs in the sea, and his head floated out of the water.
She clung to the side of the boat with both hands and breathed deeply.
His entire face had turned from red to blue, and his eyes had become red and swollen due to the irritation. Chu Qiao blinked hard.
"Master Chu looks so bad."
"Mr. Chu is cuckolded."
Brother Feng: "Master Chu, are you okay?"
Chu Qiao took a deep breath, patted his chest, and then said, "The leak has been blocked."
"But you can't be careless. The foam blocks blocking the top can fall off at any time due to collisions with passing big fish, turtles, etc., or strong currents."
I have no choice but to move forward at full speed now.
