Chapter 44: Limit float

In the early morning, a faint mist formed on the sea. ----Lin Rui and other seven people are still floating on the sea. A sturdy nylon string tied them firmly together. It's like a grasshopper tied to a rope, and a grasshopper soaked in water.
Lin Rui's body was soaked fat, but his lips were already chapped. It is a very ironic thing to say. The sea is full of water, but there are no fewer people who die of thirst in the sea than in the desert. For a whole half day plus one night, the dripping water is a difficult test for anyone. And even in tropical areas, the temperature of sea water is lower than body temperature, especially at night. Some exercise is necessary to maintain blood circulation and normal body temperature.
And activity means consumption, consumption means hunger blood sugar concentration is reduced. Lin Rui didn't even know whether he could hold on to the limit of forty-eight hours. He noticed in a daze that there seemed to be fewer people around him. Lin Rui suddenly struck a spirit, and there were fewer people!
He immediately checked one by one, only to find that one person was missing. It's Ivan! This British guy was there just now, but now he doesn't know where he is. Where can he go in this vast sea? The others were also shocked and couldn't help but stare at each other. "Damn, where did Ivan go?"
"I don't know, I was there just now." Lin Rui frowned, "I barely noticed him leaving."
Swim a little over the shore and check the ropes holding them. He whispered, "His life jacket is still there, there is no sign of external force torn, it seems that he took off the life jacket and walked away."
"But where can he go?" Qin Fen said nervously, "Is there a shark here?"
"No, this small island is a training base, and shark prevention nets are placed around it. And before we come, we will definitely dump some copper sulfate anti-shark drugs into the sea." Jiang An frowned. His health is not good, after this night. His face was obviously gray.
Zhao Jianfei looked at Ivan’s life jacket, thought for a moment, and immediately said,
He dived. The life jacket was too buoyant, and he couldn’t dive in the life jacket at all. So he took off the life jacket.

"Diving? This British guy is really yaxing, does he think this is a place to travel to the seaside?" Qin Fen shook his head straight, "Forget it, let's look around."
While talking, Ivan had emerged from the sea on one side and swam over and put on a life jacket. His eyes were a little red from the sea water, but there was nothing wrong with that. The British guy's body was as strong as a bull.
"Where have you been?" Lin Rui couldn't help but said.
"It's ironic to make a newcomer worry about me." Ivan shrugged and stretched out his hand to give him something, and said indifferently, "This is for you."
Lin Rui took it and saw that it was actually an oyster, not too small, as big as a slap.
"This is an oyster. It can be eaten raw. It can satisfy your hunger and replenish a certain amount of water. But don't eat more, if you don't want diarrhea." Zhao Jianfei said lightly.
"Eat it raw?" Lin Rui felt a little nauseous.
"This is a good thing. With this thing at the bottom, you can support more time." Jiang An said slowly.
Lin Rui turned his head and handed him the oyster in his hand, "You eat it, you need it more than I do. And I can dive in the water, and your heart may not be able to withstand the pressure of diving."
"Thanks." Taking Kishi over, without refusing, he put the oyster in his hand, and with the other hand he pried the shell that was not thick. The fresh oyster meat inside was exposed, and he held it in his hand to drink and eat. Sighed, "It's delicious."
Qin Fen said with a dull expression, "Really eaten raw?"
"Silly, this thing is also called oysters. High-protein food is said to be aphrodisiac." Jiang An smiled.
"There are still some on the underwater rocks." Ivan said lightly, "With these things, we can support it to the end."
Zhao Jianfei nodded and said, "Alright, we take turns to dive and find these things as much as possible. Although it can't be eaten, at least it can relieve the urgent need. Replenish the body's moisture." Several people nodded, they were not there for half a day and night. Eating, tired and hungry, it’s best to have something to eat.
So take turns to take off the life jackets, dive in the sea, looking for this kind of oyster among the cracks in the underwater rocks. However, the number of these oysters under the sea is not many, and each person can only find two or three at most at a time.
Lin Rui dived underwater and felt that the visibility under the water was very low. I can barely see the scenery within a few meters nearby, but the pressure of the sea water is very uncomfortable. He barely found two and floated to the surface, gasping for breath.
Qin Fen also touched one from underwater, he looked at Lin Rui hesitantly, really didn't dare to eat this kind of food raw. Lin Rui didn't care, he pulled an oyster alive and swallowed it alive. He felt that the food tasted very heavy, not how delicious it was, but at least it was able to cool down his fiery throat instantly.
Seeing that Lin Rui ate too. Qin Fen gritted his teeth and ate one. However, looking at him is as painful as taking medicine.
After eating something, my stomach feels a little better at last. But what is even more unbearable is the noon daylight, the sun in the Somali waters is scorching. Lin Rui and others could only use seawater to keep their faces moist from time to time, but they were stopped by Zhao Jianfei, "Don't water your face, it will only make you more sunburned." Zhao Jianfei was also sunburned all over his face. famous.
"Damn, my face hurts like acupuncture." Qin Fen was grumbling again. "This Fernandez, when I go up, I really want to kill him."
"Didn't you still say that bathing in sea water is a very leisure thing?" Lin Rui smiled bitterly, "Sun, beach, sea, and beautiful women in swimsuits. It is the leisure dream of how many people, you still don't know enough to enjoy it. Huh?"
"Furthermore, I don't recognize you as a brother..." Qin Fen sighed, "How long do we have?"
"It's only more than 20 hours. We still have one day and one night to stay up." Jiang An said slowly.
Lin Rui turned around and said, "How are you all? I still feel awake, but to be honest, I'm half asleep and half awake. I don't know how long I can last."
"Oh, do you have any last words? Do you want me to go back alive and greet Fernandez's grandma for you?" Zhao Jianfei smiled bitterly, "To be honest, I want to greet him too."
"Don't bother you, I will go personally!" Lin Rui shook his head.
I don't know why, the more it gets to the last juncture, the more talk between them. On the one hand, it is to resist this deep loneliness, on the other hand, it is also to prevent oneself from coma. To try to stay awake, continuous communication is the best way. However, someone fainted. This time it was not the weakest general, nor the blonde woman Yelena, but Peng Lefeng. He was injured in the last operation and did not fully recover. After soaking in sea water for such a long time, he can no longer bear it.
Ivan lifted him up a little bit and tried to float him on his back so that Peng Lefeng could keep breathing normally. When he got tired, he changed another person. Suoxing's buoyancy in the water offset a large part of the gravity, and there was a life jacket, so it was not too difficult to help Peng Lefeng. Only when human beings are in extreme difficulties, will they show amazing cooperation and mutual assistance. The same goes for team members.
After forty-eight hours had passed, Lin Rui and the others didn't even have the power to swim to the beach. They were all dragged to the beach by Fernandez. Lin Rui was covered with water, and he didn't even have the strength to stand up from the beach, as did the others. Qin Fen was dragged to the beach by the guards of the training base, leaving a deep mark on the beach, like a dead dog.
The seven players have already experienced varying degrees of dehydration and confusion.
Fernandez was very satisfied. Of the seven people this time, none of them escaped this torture-like test from beginning to end, and through mutual assistance, they survived the final difficulty. I spent two days and two nights at sea abruptly, for a full 48 hours. This cannot be said to be a pretty good level.
"How are they?" Fernandez turned to ask a medical guard next to him.
"Their faces are like a group of cooked crabs, but apart from severe dehydration and infection of one of their wounds, there should be no other major danger." The person nodded.
Fernandez waved, "Okay, take them to the emergency room."
"Yes, sir." The medical staff nodded.
Fernandez walked back to the base's control room and shouted in a deep voice, "Connect me to Morningstar's Line 2. I want to talk to Michelle directly."
"But sir, the use of this line is restricted. According to regulations, we cannot directly communicate with the company's senior management." The security guard responsible for base communications frowned.
"Go to the rules. My words are the rules." Fernandez said with a sullen face, "What are you doing in a daze, do I need to repeat the order again?"
The security officer in charge of communications froze and nodded immediately, "Yes, sir."
After connecting to Michele's exclusive communication line, Fer Anandez whispered, "They have arrived. According to the scheduled plan, they will start a three-month training camp on Shendao. I know their quality is quite good. But do you really think they can do it?"
"Train them well, Fernandez. I never misunderstand people, just like I didn't miss you." Michelle's voice was very flat. "I believe that they will be our hope. You and I know what kind of crisis is hidden in the company at present. And I handed these people to you to plan ahead and consider future crises."
