Chapter Fifty-Eight: Fate Hangs in the Ice Sea and the Sky Drops the Airship Welcome
"What should we do!" The fourth child pulled Keqin, and Xiaomo and Jiayi hurriedly came over. They were completely frightened by the situation in front of them, and their interest in playing just now disappeared.
"We can only wade back through the water...otherwise we will all be trapped here." Zhang Chen suddenly spoke. He untied the knife in his hand and carried it behind his back. The water will get deeper and deeper, and become more and more urgent.
If you don't leave, you may really die. There is still nearly a thousand meters away, and now the overpass has completely disappeared. Everyone, hurry up, maybe you can get to the shore when the water is up to your waist.
Now that things have come to this, we can only bravely get into the water. The current water temperature is freezing and biting. It must be very painful to wade through this nearly one thousand meters, and the girl can't bear it. So the boss and I carried Jiayi Xiaomo on our backs.
, the fourth child struggled to hold Keqin. The bald man wanted to help Chen Hongyan, but Chen Hongyan glared at her and strode forward. What a woman she was, how could she lose to a man.
As soon as you step into the cold sea water, the extremely cold water instantly fills up your cotton boots. What follows immediately is bone-chilling pain and numbness, like countless needles, densely piercing the instep. As soon as you move,
It pierced deeper.
As we walked, the sea water gradually reached our thighs. We could no longer see the original route of the overpass, so we could only test it with one foot deep and one shallow. Suddenly, Chen Hongyan accidentally stepped on a stone slab and fell down.
In the water, the turbulent current almost swept her away. Fortunately, the boss carried Xiaomo on his back and hurried forward and caught her.
There was no danger. However, his upper body was soaked, which made him shiver while walking in the water. The bald man offered to help her again, but Chen Hongyan still refused. She was a little stunned by the boss's pull just now, and then
He said nothing, as if he had something on his mind. Helpless, the bald man had no choice but to take off one of the two down jackets he was wearing and let her put it on.
This section of the journey is very slow to walk because the current is getting faster and faster, and the underwater road is also of different depths. Once you accidentally trip and fall, it will be really dangerous. It is much different from what we expected, and there are
It took us five to six hundred meters to reach the shore, and the water was already almost up to our waist.
I gritted my teeth and lifted Jiayi above my head, letting her ride on my neck. The boss also quickly carried Xiaomo on his back. The fourth child couldn't hold Keqin anymore, so he had no choice but to let Zhang Chen do it for him. And Chen Hongyan
, she still stubbornly wanted to go by herself, but it was too dangerous for her. After everyone persuaded her, she reluctantly agreed to let the bald man carry her.
The sea water is still rising, as if it wants to swallow everyone who walks through it.
"Damn it! It seems that we were not bitten to death by zombies, but we are going to die in this sea water today!" Xiao Rui suddenly complained when there were still three or four hundred meters left. He was the shortest among the people wading in the water.
At this moment, the water had reached his chest, and his face was pale from the cold, and he said angrily.
Suddenly, there was the sound of an engine behind us, and we quickly looked back.
I saw a sky blue motorboat passing by on the sea and heading quickly in our direction!
"Help!"
A group of people were in the water with almost only their upper bodies left. When they saw a boat approaching, they immediately grasped life-saving straws and shouted loudly. The crew members were obviously running to save us. They waved to us and then accelerated with a bang.
Coming at full speed...
This time we were lucky, and a few of us were rescued from the rapidly rising sea water. As soon as we got on the boat, several of us were almost cramped by the cold, huddled haphazardly on the deck, shivering and motionless.
We finally arrived at the shore, but we settled on Beacon Hill. At this moment, the tide had completely engulfed the surrounding shoals, leaving only this isolated island, quietly sitting on the vast sea.
Two crew members helped everyone ashore. At this time, an old man and a woman ran down the mountain. They supported a few weaker people and walked together from the stone steps to the mountainside. They stopped in front of a temple and saw
A tent was set up in the open space at the entrance of the temple. It was made of chopped wood and thick canvas and was tied together with the temple door. It was very effective for shelter from the wind. A brazier was lit in the tent, and the old man and the woman brought some
Bundles of dry firewood were collected and filled in.
We were completely soaked. We took off our coats and leaned closely against the fire pit. We had not felt so warm and contented for a long time.
On this day, everyone's carelessness almost cost everyone their lives, and now I feel a little scared when I think about it.
There lived a family on the mountain, a total of five people, men, women and children, who were nearby fishermen. On the day the zombie virus broke out, the city of Jinzhou suffered a devastating disaster. They hid at home for nearly half a month, and then they ran out of food and couldn't survive.
After living in the house, they could only drag their family and escape. But as soon as they ran outside the house, a large group of zombies suddenly surrounded them from one side. Helplessly, a few people had no choice but to flee towards the seaside. The speed of the zombies was too fast, and they were surrounded by zombies.
With the elderly and children on board, it wasn't long before they were surrounded by zombies again. On one side was the ocean and on the other were ferocious zombies. The family was completely in despair.
At the critical moment of life and death, the child's father suddenly saw a sky-blue motorboat not far away. He bought it at the beginning of this year. He heard that there were many tourists in Beacon Hill, and many people could not return to the shore after the tide rose, so he bought it.
This motorboat has a part-time job of carrying passengers at sea. There are not a few residents who do this part-time job, but there are more tourists. Every afternoon when he comes back from fishing, he will drive the motorboat around the island, every time.
Returning fully loaded, this motorboat has added a lot of income to the family.
He immediately touched the key chain on his waist. Fortunately, the key was there! So the whole family got on the motorboat, started the motor, and suddenly rushed out towards the sea. This motorboat saved the lives of the whole family in the crisis.
The child’s father’s name is Wang Guolin, everyone calls him Uncle Wang. He is in his fifties, kind-hearted and warm-hearted. Perhaps it’s because he hasn’t been out of the island for more than half a year. As soon as he saw us, he asked us questions.
They seemed to be isolated from the world and had no idea what was going on outside. When he learned that we were coming from the north and all the cities we met along the way had fallen, Uncle Wang sat there in shock and was stunned for a long time before he could only say one sentence.
, "It's over, what a sin..."
The person who rescued us with Uncle Wang was his eldest son, who is twenty years old this year and has no job. He sometimes fishes with his father at home, and sometimes goes to the island to drive a motorboat to carry guests. Uncle Wang’s purpose of buying a motorboat is mostly the same.
In order to find something to do for my son.
The three remaining people were Uncle Wang's old father, his wife, and his ten-year-old daughter. Uncle Wang was very superstitious. When he heard that the outside was occupied by zombies, he immediately used his superstitious tactics.
He complained angrily, "It's all the fault of those young people in modern times who are doing random things like abortions, throwing babies around after giving birth, and some even strangling them to death! Don't bury the dead properly, and have to be cremated.
, dug up people’s graves and built so many high-rise buildings to make money! You are doing evil... You are doing evil! The Lord of Hell has released all the evil ghosts from hell and is back to take revenge!... Hey..." Uncle Wang sighed hard.
