1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer Chapter 303

Chapter 303 A sudden change in situation

Under the command of Li Duoyu, the uncle's big boat moved very slowly and stopped when it was nearly 250 meters away.

If you continue to drive forward.

This big ship will definitely run aground.

Looking around, there are all strange and sharp rocks, and you can even see the wreckage of some fishing boats.

As fishermen, they couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. For them, this place was simply too scary.

If the village director hadn't been familiar with this area, there would probably be no one in the village and he could have brought them to this place late at night.

Xiaojun couldn't help but complain: "In this kind of ghost place, whoever comes will die."

As soon as he finished speaking, his head was hit hard by a fellow shipmate:

“Don't talk nonsense when you go out to sea, or you'll be overheard by unclean things.”

Zhang Jinfeng, who came with the trawler, hurriedly bowed in the direction of Thean Hou Temple on Dandan Island, muttering to himself.

Li Duoyu adjusted the direction of the searchlight and pointed it towards the dark sea. When he hit a rock exposed above the sea, he stopped directly.

Because the reef was too far away and it was midnight, we couldn't see clearly, but we could vaguely see two people lying on the reef.

“Fortunately, both are here.”

After seeing the people on the rocks, Chen Yuzhu became anxious: "We all shined the lights over them, but they didn't move. Is it too cold? They were frozen."

“Village director, hurry up and save them.”

Before Li Duoyu could speak, Zhao Dahai who was next to him could not help but cursed:

“Take a good look for yourself. Can a boat pass by a place like this now?”

Chen Yuzhu looked at the rocky reef in front of her and felt that there was really nothing she could do. She could only shout in a loud voice: "Xiao Hao, we are here to rescue you. You have to hold on."

“Xiao Hao.”

“Did you hear that? Hold on.”

Seeing Chen Yuzhu crying and shouting there, Lao Liu sighed and said, "No need to shout, the waves are so loud, they won't be able to hear you even if you break your throat."

Hearing what Lao Liu said, Chen Yuzhu turned around and scolded: "You are so heartless. Your son is like this. Why are you not anxious at all?"

Lao Liu had a sullen face:

“If you are anxious, will the tide rise immediately? Will someone risk their lives to save you?”

Li Duoyu also observed the reef in the distance. Neither of them moved much, and they probably started to lose their temperature.

Otherwise, if the searchlight shines on them, they will definitely get up and say hello to them, but in the current situation, it is really impossible to go to rescue them.

At present, if a sampan sails past this rocky reef, it will definitely hit the rocks within less than thirty meters.

And the tide is just rising now, and the waves are very fierce. When they hit the rocks exposed out of the sea, they will stir up water.

Once a small boat hits the rocks, it is very easy to capsize when it is hit by the waves, and people have no power to resist in the face of such big waves.

Once it falls into the sea and is hit by the waves and hit the rocks two or three times, it will probably become fish food.

Li Duoyu glanced at his watch.

It's past one o'clock in the morning. In almost three hours, the sea water will flood these reefs, and the overall water level will be about two meters higher than now.

At that time, small fishing boats will be relatively less dangerous when crossing this sea area.

It was estimated that Liu Mazi and the others passed through this sea area during high tide, otherwise they would not have been trapped there.

On the rocks.

As the temperature gets colder and colder, Liu Mazi and Chen Liang, who were able to punch each other twice before, now have their limbs uncontrollably, trembling uncontrollably, and their lips are chapped until they bleed.

Soon, the light came.

Some small crabs that climbed onto the rocks immediately raised their small pincers and were too frightened to move.

But even though there were many small crabs and conchs around them, Liu Mazi and Chen Liang didn't even have the energy to sit up or say hello to the big ship, and their speech became intermittent.

Liu Mazi said in a hoarse voice:

“Why haven't you come to save us?”

“Didn't you find us? Xiaoliang, if you still have the strength, why don't you shout?”

Chen Liang's lips kept trembling:

"Is it useful to shout? They have already discovered us, and they would have come here long ago. As you saw during the day, the area is full of sharp rocks, and it is impossible for a boat to get through."

Liu Mazi said slurred words:

“If I don't come again, I feel like I can't survive it. I just saw my grandma saying hello to me.”

“Isn't your grandma gone a long time ago?”

Liu Mazi's pupils suddenly dilated.

I didn't dare to speak for a moment.

Although Liu Mazi's limbs had lost consciousness, he still touched Chen Liang's body bit by bit.

Chen Liang's teeth chattered and he cursed: "It's your uncle's fault. Don't reach in."

Liu Mazi, who kept shivering, said: "Just let me warm up a few times. I'm too cold and I feel like I'm going to die soon."

“Damn it, I'm dying too.”

Chen Liang also put the hand close to Liu Mazi into Chen Liang's clothes and placed it on his belly.

Feeling the temperature of Liu Mazi's belly, Chen Liang felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction and happiness.

But at this moment.

Liu Mazi was shaking more and more violently, and his breathing became rapid, as if he was out of control.

Chen Liang, who had just gotten some warmth, saw that something was wrong with Liu Mazi and quickly removed his hand.

“Brother Liu, are you okay?”

“Hold on, don't scare me.”

Seeing that Liu Mazi kept twitching and didn't reply to him, Chen Liang panicked for a moment, moved his body with difficulty, and pressed his whole body on top of him to help him block the sea breeze.

　　Those people on the trawler could not help but breathe a sigh of relief after seeing them moving.

“They seemed to be moving.”

Chen Yuzhu cried with joy and said, "It's good that I'm still alive. I'm really blessed by Mazu."

But Zhang Defa, a doctor, frowned since the searchlight shone on the two people.

He kept staring at the situation of the two people on the rock. He could vaguely see that one of them was pressing on the other on the rock, presumably to keep the other person warm.

Looking at the situation, one person has already suffered from severe hypothermia, but this crude and simple heating method is more likely to kill the other person.

If the instability is severe, it will lead to cardiopulmonary failure and make breathing very difficult. If you press it up like this, although it can keep you warm, it will make it more difficult for the other party to breathe.

He didn't know who was trapped underneath, but the current situation was already very dangerous.

He glanced at the chaotic reef area not far from the ship, then at Li Duoyu, the Zhao brothers and others, frowned, and made a difficult decision.

He decided not to tell everyone about the current situation of the two people.

Once he says this, the family members of Liu Mazi and Chen Liang will definitely kneel down and beg Li Duoyu to risk their lives to save them.

As an old classmate, although I have always disliked Li Duoyu, when I thought about it, this person might be his brother-in-law.

Zhang Defa felt that he should not be allowed to take this risk, otherwise Li Xiaorong would probably tear him apart.

However, what Zhang Defa didn't know was that Li Duoyu had already seen the problem.

He is also facing an ideological struggle. If he doesn't save him now, there is a high probability that someone will die.

If you can go and save him.

The Zhao brothers would definitely not take such a big risk to save them. The only ones who dared to take the risk to save them at this time were Liu Mazi and Chen Liang's father.

But these two people were not familiar with this sea area. If they were to sail the boat, they would have to pay two more heads.

At present, he and Chen Wenchao are probably the only ones who want to rescue people. But Liu Xiaolan is still pregnant, and Chen Wenchao is about to become a father and is also the backbone of the family. Naturally, Li Duoyu will not let him take this risk.

And he also promised Zhou Xiaoying that he would go back early to have "meal" this morning, so he wouldn't take such a big risk.

Encountered such a multiple-choice question.

Li Duoyu was also helpless. Looking at the vast sea in front of him, he felt that human beings are really small compared to nature.

He took a piece of paper and pen from his uncle and simply drew it, silently remembering the location of the rocks, and at the same time drew a crooked route on the paper.

As time passes little by little.

The family members of Liu Mazi and Chen Liang became increasingly nervous and anxious.

Someone was smoking and walking on the deck. Zhang Jinfeng had been kneeling in the direction of Tianhou Temple for more than an hour, praying all the time.

Chen Yuzhu cried anxiously again, and kept thinking to Li Duoyu and Zhang Defa.

“Why don't you move all the time?”

“The tide has begun to rise. Village director, should we drive the boat over again?”

“Is there nothing going on with them?”

Li Duoyu has also been a parent, so he can naturally understand their feelings.

He has done everything that is possible.

He has also been paying attention to the tide. It has indeed risen a lot, and some rocks that could have been seen have been submerged in the sea water.

The entire sea area does not look as dangerous as before, but the fishermen present know that this is the most dangerous time.

Even more dangerous than before.

Just now, you could still know where the danger was, but now, you don't even know where the reef is.

Li Duoyu looked at the simple sketch he had just drawn in his hand. Fortunately, he had drawn it before the tide came in.

Now he is a little more sure about rescuing Liu Mazi and Chen Liang.

Li Duoyu glanced at his watch.

It's three o'clock.

But the two people on the reef have not moved for a long time, and Li Duoyu's brows are also furrowed. There are still three hours until dawn. If we really wait until dawn passes.

There is a high probability that the body will be collected.

Li Duoyu sighed and said to everyone: "Xiao Chao, Lao Liu, and Uncle Chen, please get ready. In one hour, we will sail a small boat to rescue people."

Hearing that Li Duoyu wanted to rescue people, Liu Mazi and Chen Liang's family members all gathered around.

The crying Chen Yuzhu asked: "Village director, can't we go earlier and rescue her now?"

Li Duoyu shook his head.

“Not now, and the boat can't get across.”

“But they haven't moved for a long time.”

Lao Liu said anxiously and angrily: "Can you please stop causing trouble and let us listen to the village director's instructions on how to save people first?"

When Old Liu said this, Chen Yuzhu bit her lips tightly and stopped talking.

In fact, the rescue is very simple. Just drive the fishing boat over, then move the people to the boat and bring them back.

But this is a common situation. For people with hypothermia like them, they must start rescuing people as soon as they are rescued.

Zhang Defa also asked Jinfeng to boil some hot water. When he came, he had considered the problem of hypothermia.

When I came here, I borrowed several hot water bottles and said to Li Duoyu.

"Duoyu, when you rescue people later, if you find that their bodies are very cold, don't rush to give them hot water."

“Put these hot water bottles under their armpits first, without heating their limbs.”

“If your clothes are wet, just take them off and wrap them in a quilt.”

After Zhang Defa finished speaking, he said to the family members of Liu Mazi and Chen Liang: "You must have brought your quilt."

Zhang Jinfeng and Chen Yuzhu nodded, and each carried a snakeskin bag containing a quilt.

At this time.

Li Duoyu asked all those involved in the rescue to wear life jackets, and two or three lifebuoys were also prepared on the sampan.

At the same time, Li Duoyu took a flashlight and briefly communicated with his uncle, using codes commonly used in nearby waters.

In fact, it is very simple. Just like Liu Yun who stole Li Duoyu's kelp, he used the flashlight switch to transmit the signal.

After everything is ready.

Li Duoyu raised his head and looked at the sky. The sky was really dark, and he couldn't even see the crescent moon. But fortunately, the weather was good, and a few stars were particularly bright.

After arriving at the point.

Li Duoyu and others jumped on the fishing boat and lit lanterns around the sampan boat to illuminate the nearby sea as much as possible.

As the "rumbling" sound of the engine sounded, the small sampan boat moved according to the sketch that Li Duoyu had just drawn by hand.

The boat drove towards Liu Mazi and Chen Liang at a very slow speed. The three people on the boat also looked at the sea nervously.

What they didn't expect was that just after the sampan sailed out for a while, a school of fish actually started swimming with their fishing boat.

Several of them jumped onto their boat and kept flopping on the board.

Li Duoyu glanced at it and found that it was a flying fish with long "wings".

This fish has phototaxis and is very suitable for light fishing. The uncle's trawler has turned on the light here for so long, so it probably attracted them.

But everyone has no time to care about these flying fish jumping on the fishing boat.

They drove forward for almost a hundred meters, and the journey was smooth. They could clearly see Liu Mazi and Chen Liang on the rocks.

But at this moment, Chen Wenchao pointed nervously ahead and shouted:

“Brother Yu, there is a reef on the left side in front of the boat, so be careful.”

Li Duoyu was slightly surprised. The reef pointed by Chen Wenchao was a blind spot for his observation and was not included in the sketch he just drew.

I saw that the fishing boat was about to hit me.

The three people on the boat were stunned, their eyes full of horror. Li Duoyu immediately picked up the bamboo pole used to support the boat.

Hurry to the bow of the boat, stab it directly at the reef, and let the bamboo pole hit the reef instead of the fishing boat.

The moment the bamboo pole touched the reef, a huge force was felt.

Because he clung to the bamboo pole, the huge friction made his palms very hot, and the calluses on his hands were instantly worn out.

At this time, the other three people realized and rushed to help. The three of them held the bamboo pole together.

Using the reaction force, the sampan was pushed away from the reef.

Unfortunately, it was still a step too late. As the waves came over, the sampan still ran into a reef when it changed direction.

There was a dull friction sound. Fortunately, the four people present were all experienced fishermen. The four people came to the stern of the boat and stabbed the reef with bamboo poles again.

The sampan was pushed out again.

That's why the sampan was not stranded here.

After the sampan boat left the reef, everyone couldn't help wiping the cold sweat from their foreheads, their faces looking ugly.

What happened just now took less than half a minute in total, but to them, it was like experiencing a life-and-death disaster.
