Dangerous City In The Last Days

Chapter 293 Buoyancy

After the whale upgraded beast dived into the sea, Qin An and Xiao Ru still wanted to fight for the last time.

So they tried to swim back to Dongding Island, because it was the nearest land they knew.

However, the wind and waves on the sea did not want them to continue to live.

After only a dozen minutes of swimming, the sea breeze became strong and the waves became turbulent!

All the beauty of this sea has been turned into fierceness, wanting to slaughter all life from outside that does not belong to it.

Qin An held Xiaoru firmly into his own arms, and then the two were swept by the waves, sometimes sinking to the bottom of the sea, and sometimes thrown out of the sea.

If it is an ordinary person, I am afraid that he would have died long ago.

And Qin An and Xiao Ru are not ordinary people, they both have strong muscle strength, allowing them to fight for the first line of life in the sea of ​​anger.

This time, it was different from the one that fell into the sea just before escaping from Blue Ocean City.

At that time they had a wooden boat that could keep them floating on the sea most of the time.

And this time they had nothing, so most of the time they were pressed into the sea by the waves.

In this way, they have been tortured by the sea. When the sun turned from the east to the west, they had been in the sea for more than nine hours!

The sea water in January is very cold. Even if you have a physique like Qin An, you will feel a little numb after being soaked for a long time.

Then Xiao Ru’s condition was even worse. She was already shivering and she was dizzy. She drank a lot of sea water.

When dusk arrived, the sea finally became calm, and at this moment, Qin An had no idea where they were washed up, and there was no land around them, all of them were sea.

The setting sun in the western horizon is still beautiful, but Qin An no longer has any mood to appreciate it.

His body floated in the water, and then he held Xiaoru so that her head was on the water, and his voice was a little hoarse and shouted: “Xiaoru! Little fairy! Are you dead or not?”

Xiao Ru kept her eyes closed. When Qin An’s roar sounded in her ears over and over again, she finally awoke a little bit from her dizziness, then coughed vigorously, spitting out a few mouthfuls of salty sea water from her mouth.

Seeing Xiaoru’s reaction, Qin An was pleasantly surprised to lift her body higher, and then knocked her back to make her spit out more seawater.

After tossing, Xiao Ru took a long breath, and then said weakly: “Has the rain stopped?”

Qin An is really Didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, it seems Xiaoru has been dizzy by the waves!

She even thought she was in the rain!

Not in the mood to tease Xiao Ru, because Qin An was also very tired at this time, he hugged Xiao Ru tighter, and said: “Yes! The rain has stopped, but we are already submerged by the rain!”

Xiaoru slowly opened his eyes and found that Qin An’s face was close at hand, and his face was covered with water drops.

Although the sea breeze has disappeared, and the waves are not turbulent, but the sea is still moving. They follow the rhythm of the sea, drifting in the sea. Qin An has not much strength to swim, so he can only tread on the water with his feet to keep his body at its best. The good angle of inclination prevents the two of them from being overwhelmed by the sea.

Xiaoru smiled slightly, he was not dead yet? She looked at Qin An and said, “It’s still the first year of the junior high school! Happy New Year!”

Qin An finally laughed. He didn’t expect Xiao Ru to say such a sentence to him.

It turns out that when Death cannot escape, people can face it calmly!

Looking at Xiaoru’s smiling face, Qin An suddenly found that he liked her smile very much.

There is a pure taste in her smile, but also a touch of charm.

Seeing that Qin An was looking at herself, Xiao Ru was not ashamed this time. She also looked at Qin An, and then said: “Maybe we are really going to die?”

Qin An nodded, and then said: “Yeah, this time we don’t have a wooden boat. We can only float like this. It is estimated that our physical strength will be exhausted soon! Uncle, I have experienced all the big winds and waves! At that time, I didn’t even encounter a death girl. Die, but now it’s in your hands! You are awesome!”

Xiao Ru was stunned and repeated: “Who is the death girl?”

She didn’t understand the meaning of Qin An’s words at all, and what Qin An was referring to was of course Liu Xia.

Hearing Xiaoru’s question, Qin An didn’t open his mouth to explain, because he didn’t have the energy to talk about Liu Xia now. It was a somewhat long story.

The sea is cold, but Xiao Ru feels that she is not cold because of Qin An’s presence.

From a psychological point of view, a woman feels warm when a strong man is held in her arms.

From a physiological point of view, Qin An is a man, while Xiaoru is a woman. The man is masculine and the woman is feminine. Therefore, the body temperature of a man is a little higher than that of a woman in the same environment. In this way, Xiao Ru can absorb the heat radiated from Qin An. Although the heat is very thin, it can be amplified infinitely in the cold sea water.

Xiaoru was held by Qin An, and she was only half of Qin An’s length, so in the sea, Xiaoru’s little feet would occasionally sweep Qin An’s little brother.

Even so, Xiao Ru didn’t have any embarrassment. Last night, she had the closest contact with the fierce guy.

Qin An was a little uncomfortable at the beginning, but slowly it didn’t matter. He didn’t know if he could continue to live, so why did he care about so many things?

The two continued to embrace each other in this way and continued to float in the sea. As time passed, they no longer had the strength to speak. Floating in the sea was also a very physically demanding thing.

Xiaoru was held by Qin An all the time, and she actually used much less effort than Qin An, but her physical strength was not as good as Qin An after all.

Therefore, she is more tired than Qin An.

But her mental state is very good, and everything she experienced at this time seemed to be a dream.

She willfully handed herself over to a man who was trying hard to protect her!

He didn’t even know that they had a relationship! He doesn’t even have the slightest love for her!

However, even so, in the crisis, he still protects her without hesitation, although her weight is not heavy, but if she let go of her, he can save more effort, right?

Thinking of this, Xiao Ru felt that she was extremely lucky. It was really not easy to meet such a man in the last days.

If you die like this, then Xiaoru will feel that own life is perfect, at least close to perfection.

Time continued to pass, and wind was blowing again on the calm sea.

When the wind comes, the waves follow.

The two people were caught by the waves again and sometimes floated up and then sank.

Xiaoru closed her eyes, she calmed her own heart, and waited for Death to come!

It took about four or five hours for the wind and waves to return to calm again. At this moment, Xiao Ru had passed out, and Qin An had already lost his strength. He could hardly control his body to continue floating on the sea! Struggling in the wind and waves is really exhausting! Qin An believes that even those master swimmers who can cross the strait on TV can not stay in the sea for more than ten hours under the huge wind and waves, and they can still have a trace of strength.

It seems that this is it! Can’t escape Death anymore.

Qin An wanted to give up because he was too tired.

At this moment, Qin An noticed that something was reflecting from him a few hundred meters away!

What could it be?

With a hint of curiosity, the will to survive was rekindled. Qin An stimulated the final potential in his body, stroked the water with one hand, and swam toward the luminous place using the breaststroke movement.

When he swam there, he found that it was a small plank! On the edge of the wooden board, wrapped with a metal frame, this should be a decorative item on a certain boat? Or is it a photo frame?

Qin An couldn’t figure out why it was used, but Qin An knew that this wooden board was his life-saving straw!

First put Xiaoru on the wooden board, and then Qin An climbed up on it himself, but the weight of the two people could not support the wooden board, so he immediately turned it over and let them fall into the sea again.

Qin An struggled to pull Xiaoru back into his arms in the sea, and then swam to the side of the wooden board. After repeated attempts, Qin An was completely disappointed!

This plank is not enough to bear the weight of the two of them.

There was no way, Qin An could only hold Xiaoru and continue to float in the sea while supporting the wooden board with his hands.

After another four or five hours, Qin An’s body became heavier and heavier, only to feel that there was a big hand in the sea, pulling him down.

At this time, he was too weak, soaking in the sea for a long time, causing a lot of dehydration in his body. The symptom of dehydration is that his extracellular fluid is severely reduced! Plasma volume, cardiac output, maximal oxygen uptake, muscle strength, and glycogen content all dropped significantly.

This makes him unable to control his body to continue to float on the sea, and this kind of powerlessness makes him unconsciously want to grasp the last straw, that is to say, the body will be fully pressed on the board!

In this case, the wooden board still cannot bear the weight from him and Xiaoru.

In the end, Qin An knew that he was already in a mortal situation! Perhaps letting go of Xiaoru at this time, he can still hold on to the board for a while, but is this necessary? When he lost consciousness and couldn’t hold the wooden board with his hand, he died in the end!

Qin An worked hard to push Xiaoru onto the board, then took off the white shirt she had been wearing, and tore a few rags, and then wrapped one end of the cloth around Xiaoru’s wrist, and tied the other end to Xiaoru’s wrist. On the raised metal frame at the edge of the plank.

This is the last thing he can do for Xiaoru and the only choice he can make at the moment.

He is not so noble. If he has a choice, he might hesitate to let himself stay on the board or let Xiaoru.

Fortunately, he has no choice! Then it is tantamount to choosing noble!

Qin An felt very bitter in his heart. He suddenly remembered a foreign movie he had watched many years ago, which seemed to be called “Titanic”. When I watched it, he didn’t feel touching, or even felt a little false.

But now, he is also facing a similar situation, what a shameful moment!

Qin An laughed at himself in his heart, then looked at Xiao Ru who was in a coma on the wooden board. The little fairy’s face was very pale at this time!

A slight wave passed by, Qin An’s body sank suddenly, he hurriedly reached out and grabbed the plank, but when his hand hit the plank, the plank quickly tilted and was about to be turned over, Qin An hurriedly let go!

Damn buoyancy!

Without the support of the plank, the weak Qin An’s body began to descend in the rhythm of the sea and the slight waves. In the end, he was unable to continue to struggle, and slowly fell into the dark sea!
