Chapter 168: Escape
Listening to the footsteps gradually moving away, Lin Haoran let out a breath of turbidity and gently pushed open the wardrobe. I was going to hide in a different place, or sneak back to the second floor, and it always felt like it was not safe.
Ah......
The little eunuch came out of the closet, and the room was tilting to the left with the wind and waves, and his step fell unsteadily, and the whole person fell to the ground at once.
When Lin Haoran heard this, his face turned pale, and at the same time he looked at the door worriedly. If the other party also hears this movement, then both of them will become souls under the sword.
Although he once dreamed of becoming a martial arts master, and secretly learned a few tricks from Ali, he didn't think that he, who had been repeatedly abused by Tiger Girl, would be the opponent of these murderous pirates.
Not good!
It was pitch black in front of me, and although I couldn't see anything clearly, I could smell a thick smoke. Apparently, someone had set fire to the ship, as if to burn it down, burning everyone on board.
I didn't expect that General Huo Shen would be even more vicious than ordinary pirates, and he would even want to deal with everyone on the ship, and he didn't seem to intend to leave any alive.
A wave of fear welled up in my heart!
It is true that he can swim, but to survive in this ocean, relying on physical strength to challenge is definitely self-defeating. His eyes looked at the closet, but he wasn't sure if it would be able to float effectively on the surface.
"This ...... There's a puff bag here! The little eunuch got up from the ground, seemed to be aware of the fact that the big ship was about to be burned, and pointed to the puffy bag in the wardrobe.
The so-called floating sac is the earliest air-blown lifebuoy. Sew a large pocket with sheepskin, seal the air leak with glue, and blow air into it when you use it, and tie the air inlet that is, the mouth.
There are only two puffy sacs here, but I don't know if they are for the use of the court, they are very well sewn, and they look strong and beautiful, which is simply the best of this era.
Yes......
But I don't know who it burned, and there was a heart-rending scream from a man below, which really made the scalp tingle.
"Jump!"
The hull of the ship tilted to the right with the wind and waves, and at the moment when it was tilted to the greatest extent, Lin Haoran held the pontoon, pedaled on the window frame with his feet, and his whole body struggled to leap forward.
The body plunged into the icy water, and it was pitch black in front of him, leaving only cold and fear.
It's just that the will to survive supported him, holding the floating sac tightly, and after sinking his body for a long time, he finally surfaced on the tumbling sea when he felt like he was going to suffocate.
Drops of rain fell overhead, the wind seemed to wail in the ears, and the puffy sacs rose and fell with the waves. The rain kept him open, but from the slit in his eye, he could see that the ship was already on fire.
It's just that at this time, he naturally didn't care about the safety of those people on the ship, and just wanted to survive this catastrophe.
He very much hoped that a ship of the Great Ming Sailor would suddenly appear and rescue him, but this willingness was in vain, as if he was alone in the vast sea.
Rain, wind, darkness, cold, swept in.
The body is semi-immersed in seawater, swaying with the surface of the waves, not only enduring the cold erosion, but also having to hold on tightly to the floating sac, which greatly consumes physical energy.
The most terrible thing is the waves that crash from time to time, the violent water hitting the head, the salty sea water pouring into the mouth and nose, the spicy feeling directly rushes into the mind, which makes people extremely uncomfortable.
Tiger girl!
Lin Haoran silently recited the name, which seemed to have magical power, igniting his desire to seek business.
At this moment, he thought of the warm little body, and wanted to lie on the warm bed and tell the story to the tiger girl, instead of embodying this torment in this sea.
Fortunately, he was quite serious in his work, and when he let the buoyancy into the air before, he let it bulge inside, so the buoyancy of the buoyancy was very large, so that his body would not be completely soaked in water.
It's just that the little eunuch was not so lucky, the qi in his floating bag was obviously insufficient, so that almost his entire body was soaked in water, and under the wave of attack of the waves, his physical strength was slowly exhausted.
I'm going to die!
The little eunuch's eyelids became heavier and heavier, and his whole body slowly slipped away from the floating sac, and he was about to be buried in this merciless sea, becoming a delicacy for the fish swimming in this sea.
Hey, hope for the afterlife!
Don't be in a poor house again......
Don't be a eunuch in the palace again......
Just when the little eunuch thought that he was going to die forever at the bottom of the sea, suddenly a big strong hand grabbed him and dragged him out of the sea, allowing him to breathe fresh air.
"You sit on my puffy bag!" Lin Haoran said in a commanding tone.
When the little eunuch heard this, his eyes suddenly turned red, and he was fortunate for the rest of his life, and he was also moved by this warmth. This scholar, who had never known him, still chose to save him at this time.
Lin Haoran grabbed the little eunuch's dry floating sac along the rope, untied the rope and filled it in the direction of the wind, and then tied the air inlet.
When the two bulging puffs are connected together, it looks like a small bamboo row. Despite their low weight, they still can't sit on them, and the buoyancy here is still not enough to support two people.
After doing all this, Lin Haoran's physical strength was also very small, and his upper body crawled on the pontoon and asked the little eunuch, "Hey, what's your name?" ”
"I'm the third in the family, my name is Feng San, what about you?" Feng San's lips trembled, but he still spoke.
"My name is Lin Haoran, and I have a younger sister named Tiger Girl." Lin Haoran wanted to dispel the chill by chatting, but when he talked about the tiger girl, his body was obviously a little warmer.
"I have a sister too, but ...... I didn't see it! Feng San's teeth trembled, and he also said in frustration.
"How old are you? When did you enter the palace and how did you end up on this ship? Lin Haoran endured the cold that invaded his body, and asked a mystery in his heart.
Feng San was sent to the palace very early, he is only fourteen years old this year, and he is a real little eunuch. followed the old eunuch who was also surnamed Feng, but this old eunuch was not good to him, and he punished him at every turn.
During this journey, he was drugged with food by a traitor, and all his companions died in their dreams.
Fortunately, Feng San accidentally knocked over Gonggong Feng's teacup and was punished for not being able to eat, so he escaped by luck, otherwise he would have turned into ashes at this time.
As time passed, the wind and waves gradually subsided.
It's just that the waves in the sea are endless, and the two of them move with the waves, but they don't know where they will drift.
But I don't know how long it has been floating, but when the sky is slightly bright, the huge black shadow in front of me slowly shows its true face, it is a lush island full of flowers and trees.
