Chapter 691: Rescue ship

But the satisfaction goes to the satisfaction, even if he knows the approximate location, he cannot leave the island. Is it to swim for two days and two nights and swim to land? Normal people do not have this idea.
So you still use the old method to float back on the barrel? Lin Rui didn't want to do it again even if he was killed. The luck that he was able to live to now accounted for a large part. Of course he also knew that luck would not always be on his side.
"It seems that I have to wait." Lin Rui looked at the deserted island and sighed. He has never been so helpless. Now if someone tells him the that manpower can conquer the sky, he must slap this person. This sentence is only spoken by those who have no backache while standing. And the person who can say this is certainly not alone on the island.
Only when a person really faces the boundless sea will he realize the insignificance of manpower. In this almost desperate environment, it is not easy for someone who can calmly face it.
Lin Rui is obviously this type of person. The first thing he did was rest quietly and regain his strength. When his body recovered a little after two days, he liked to walk around the island. The island is not big, and he has traveled to every corner of the island. Where there are trees, where there are a few banana trees, and where some edible shellfish are often found on the beach, he almost remembered all of them.
The pool on the island should be the rainwater accumulated during the last rain. This is the only fresh water that Lin Rui will survive. So he would go there every day. The water level has been declining in the past few days, and Lin Rui wondered if he would be able to leave before this small pool dries up. If there are still no ships passing by before the water source dries up, then his life will almost end.
So Lin Rui raises a bonfire by the beach every night. Thanks to the sharp knife next to him, there is flint and steel in the handle, and he can also use the knife to chop down some small branches for fuel.
Lin Rui still does restorative running every day, running around the island. Not only for exercise, but also to find some food on the beach. And most of the next time, he added damp leaves to the fire. Because the fire is hard to see during the day, but the thick smoke is very conspicuous. The damp leaves cover the fire and emit thick smoke.
For a whole week, he was repeating such things, looking forward to ships nearby. Unfortunately, there is never. This is the sea near Libya. The severe war has affected normal trade and transportation, and there were not many ships coming and going. And the location of this island is not yet on the shipping line.
Whether there are ships coming is really a matter of uncertainty. But Lin Rui still persisted in doing this. He believed that only by trying hard would there be more opportunities. But he was disappointed again and again. Two weeks later, he had to face a problem-the water source was about to dry up.
The pool on the island is not big, and Lin Rui doesn't drink so much fresh water, but the pool is still a little shallow. Because in addition to the water he consumes for drinking, this pool is constantly infiltrating and draining underground. Maybe it will take until the next rain before the pool will fill up again. But can Lin Rui insist on waiting until the day it rains? he does not know.
But just when he felt the most helpless, his luck came. At noon one day, he clearly saw the shadow of a ship in the distance on a rock on the beach. Lin Rui rushed to the beach in ecstasy, waving his arms frantically, taking off his clothes and shaking them in his hands, trying to attract the attention of the crew on board.
For half a month, this was the first time he saw someone passing by, and his ecstasy almost made him forget everything. Even if it was a group of vicious pirates at this time, he had an urge to go up and kiss them. It's not easy. The days on this island are too difficult. The feeling of loneliness in the bones almost makes people break down.
It looks like a fishing boat, but obviously it looks like it has been modified. The oversized cargo hold and the machine gun on the bow seem to indicate that this is a smuggling ship. At this time, only smuggling ships have the courage to operate in nearby waters. And because it is smuggling, they will avoid major routes and take routes that are rarely passed by.
As the ship approached, Lin Rui suddenly rushed into the sea and swam towards the ship. Several armed men came out of the boat and put him on board. But these smugglers are not a good crop. One by one looked at Lin Rui viciously, holding weapons in their hands.
"Hey, man, you look really embarrassed." One of them frowned. "What's the matter, did you meet a pirate?"
Lin Rui smiled and looked at these humanitarians, "It's much more serious than this. I met an army."
"Ha, aren't you talking about the coastal anti-smuggling team? So, you are also a companion?" An armed man looked at Lin Rui and said, "What about your ship and crew?"
"I'm not a smuggler, but I can give you a lot of money." Lin Rui looked at them and said directly, "Let’s make a deal, and you will bring me back to Libya. I will give you ten thousand dollars, I said. It's 10,000 per person."
A person with the appearance of a captain frowned, "We have six people here, and I, the captain, will take double shares by rule."
"70,000, I can afford it, as long as you can get me back to the port." Lin Rui looked at them.
"Seventy thousand dollars?" The smuggling captain looked at him and shook his head, and whispered to his companion, "Is this guy a lunatic? I don't think he has ten dollars under his body."
"I think it's the same. In my opinion, we shouldn't care about this nosy at all. We are just a bunch of smugglers, not a humanitarian rescue team. Maybe we should get him off the ship is the right choice." A smuggler shook his head.
"What are you talking about? Rescue of wrecked crews has been the rule of the sailor industry for hundreds of years. Even some pirates follow this principle. Besides, what if what he said is true? Seventy thousand dollars, we are enough to buy two Such a boat." Someone objected.
"We don't even know who he is. It is a big risk to save him. Maybe he is from the Coastal Smuggling Team?"
"Dude, are you stupid? He is a yellow guy. The anti-smuggling team is not a football team. When does it recruit foreign aid? Besides, that's seventy thousand dollars, which is seventy thousand dollars." A crew member was obviously moved.
"Sounds good, but it's only if you can get the money. This guy is just talking, who knows if he is lying to us?" The captain frowned. "And letting a stranger on the ship is a bit unruly. Let's search his body first, then tie him up and throw him in the back cabin. We will talk about it after we finish the ticket sale."
