One Hundred Days on an Uninhabited Island

"Look... I see it! I see it!"

The woman's sharp voice floated high above the wreckage with excitement, and the uncontrollable joy in her voice successfully attracted everyone's attention, and they all got up and looked in the direction she pointed.

"Is it the mainland or the island?"

"Is it an island? It's just a sharp corner. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a mainland... I hope it's an archipelago where people are active."

"I can't see it very clearly, but I can be sure that there are mountains there, and they are not low."

"Bodhisattva bless! Bodhisattva bless..."

Jiang Xinran held back her excitement, and raised her hand to check the time. It was 5:06 Beijing time. She estimated the time in the time zone, and it should be around 8 o'clock. Calculated based on their average height, that is to say, they spent more than an hour It drifted about seven or eight hundred meters.

The drifting speed is a bit slow, and I don't know if I can dock before 12 o'clock.

Thinking about it, Jiang Xinran couldn't help looking in the direction of the island with some worry.

"Mom, can we be saved?"

At this moment, a childish word sounded in my ear, both joy and uneasiness.

Jiang Xinran secretly glanced away.In the field of vision, Wen Siqi's smile towards her daughter remained unchanged, neither sad nor happy, as if she was a saint without emotions.

Seeing Wen Siqi's calmness, Jiang Xinran was a little unconvinced, she immediately turned her gaze away, took a deep breath to force herself to calm down, but the excitement around her, her own hunger and thirst and the burning temperature on her body made her unable to calm down.

She felt irritable and uncomfortable.

"Shouldn't you be happy when you see the land? How did you become irritable?" The voice in the ear was very low and hoarse, as if it was being scrubbed.

Jiang Xinran hurriedly collected her thoughts and said, "It's nothing, I'm just a little thirsty. It's you, stop talking, lie down properly, so as not to cause problems."

"Small crow's mouth, there has been no problem for so many years, how could it happen suddenly." Ye Yajie smiled weakly, and then moistened her lips with the tip of her tongue.

Jiang Xinran opened her mouth, wanted to speak but stopped swallowing, curled up her legs, silently knocked her chin on her knees, and kept chanting "Why so slow", "When did you Only then can we get to the shore", "Why is there no movement at all"...

This voice kept coming back and forth in her ears like thirst, which annoyed Jiang Xinran so much that she wanted to interrupt it several times, but she couldn't say anything about the excited appearance of the other party.

"Hey, can you be quiet, it's very noisy."

Ye Yajie's impatience rang in her ears, and the voice of Sui Sui Nian Nian stopped abruptly, and then Jiang Xinran saw the sharp turn.

"Why did I quarrel? I'm not a sick child like you who dies immediately after seeing it. What happened to me when I saw the island!" The young woman's voice became sharper.

"Hey! How do you talk, do you have such a metaphor." Ye Yajie stared, and forced herself to sit up against the wreckage.

The young woman immediately raised her waist and raised her chin, opening her mouth to make a move, but a figure stood in the sight of the two of them.

"Stop, both of you, don't waste your energy on little things." Looking back, the smile is as gentle as jade, "It's inevitable to be excited in a desperate situation, it's human nature, but we don't know if there is any water source on the island yet , Food, whether it is dangerous, if energy is consumed at this time, making it impossible to find water and food after going to the island, how can I have to pay for it.

Therefore, right now we should recharge our batteries to maintain our physical strength, and don't waste our energy where it shouldn't be wasted. "

Soft words eased the atmosphere a little.

The young woman glanced at Wen Siqi, said in a low voice, "Hypocrisy," and sat down by herself.Ye Yajie followed suit, then glanced at the young woman, and lay down again in a low voice.

Someone quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and Jiang Xinran also suppressed the anger that was about to flare up.

Wen Siqi turned a blind eye to this, smiled gently at the others and went back to Wen Suiyun's side.

"Is this okay? Both sides don't like it." As soon as Wen Siqi sat down, she heard a low hoarseness in her ears.

Turning around, the pregnant woman who had been silent all this time was looking at her.

Wen Siqi smiled lightly, and said in a low voice: "What else can I do, I can't let them continue to quarrel."

"But looking at them now, there will be disputes in the future."

The pregnant woman quickly looked at Ye Yajie and the two worriedly, then turned back and looked at Wen Siqi hesitantly.

After looking at her for a while, Wen Siqi understood her worry, licked her lips and said, "If you want to solve the problem thoroughly, both parties must be willing to let go of their grievances. If others want to achieve this goal, they must have the power of persuasion to make both parties comfortable. , or prestige, unfortunately I have neither, and I don’t know much about each of them, and I don’t have the energy at this time.”

After finishing speaking, Wen Siqi hugged her daughter and stopped talking, and the pregnant woman also remained silent.

Because the excitement of seeing the island also dissipated the joy along with this small quarrel, and the wordless silence was like a heavy cloud weighing on everyone's heads, unknowingly this weight also weighed on Wen Suiyun who was nestled in his mother's arms body.

When she was young, she began to be afraid, hugged her mother tightly, and hid herself in her arms.

Wen Siqi looked at her daughter's actions, pursed her lips, then took a deep breath, and said in a light tone: "The wind is getting stronger again, we should be able to land before 12 o'clock."

"Are you sure?" The atmosphere changed suddenly, and the stewardess with a heroic face hurriedly asked.

"Sure." Wen Siqi smiled happily, "I was observing our drifting speed before. Half an hour ago, our speed changed with the wind speed. It must be caused by the rising tide. The next speed may be different. change."

"That's great~!"

"It's great, it's great!"

Everyone was very excited, and even the two who had just quarreled halfway were beaming with joy.

For a moment, the survivors on the wreck were in high spirits, and hope lingered in their hearts.

The joyful atmosphere easily affected Wen Suiyun, and he grinned excitedly and asked his mother what would happen on the island.

While Wen Siqi took the trouble to answer her questions about what her [-] people were, she wondered whether there were people on the island, and if not, what to do when she arrived on the island, what to pay attention to, and how to gather everyone's strength and mobilize them to take action to survive. Provide a guarantee.

She thought about it a lot, thinking about dizziness, a splitting headache, thinking about confusion, thinking about giving up.

Thinking about it, half an hour passed, and the surge of sea water became more obvious. They even saw the rising sea level ahead and the dark green looming below the sea level.

They saw half of the mountain, Jiang Xinran sat on the middle-aged man's shoulder again and saw roughly, it was an island, the size could not be estimated for now, and it was impossible to know whether there were traces of people's activities, but it was green from a distance.

After more than half an hour, they finally saw the front of the island, with a little sandy yellow faintly showing between the lush dark green and the blue sea.

"An island, an island!"

"And the beach."

"Great...great!"

"Mom, it's the island, we're saved!" Wen Suiyun took Wen Siqi's hand, pointed at the island and smiled happily.

"Well, we're saved." Wen Siqi smiled slightly, her calm tone hard to find excitement.

Jiang Xinran glanced at her, quietly restrained her excitement and joy, and calmed herself down.

Ye Yajie at the side rolled her eyes.

The wreck came closer to the island with the tide, and the mountains in the field of vision became shorter and shorter with the distance. It seemed that it was still so far away. Wen Siqi frowned slightly.

Half an hour and half an hour later, the wreckage was getting closer and closer to the island. Jiang Xinran looked at the time. It was already 8:45 Beijing time, and it was almost 12 o'clock in the time zone, so she estimated the distance to the island, which was about 300 meters .

Still a bit far.

Jiang Xinran couldn't help but worry about whether they could get ashore in time.

Ten minutes ago, the drifting speed of the wreckage slowed down a lot. Obviously, the tide was approaching its limit and could no longer rise.

"ah--!"

Suddenly, she was staggered by her feet, and a scream rang in her ears. Jiang Xinran was startled and couldn't stand still, and she fell on her buttocks in embarrassment.

"what happened?"

"What happened!"

"It seems to have hit something."

"On the rocks."

"Strike the rocks? What should I do?"

The panic became more pronounced as the wreckage remained still.

Wen Siqi glanced at the island, then observed the sea water carefully, squatted down and put on the life jacket for Wen Suiyun again.

"Put on the life jacket and we'll swim."

"Swim over?! Are you kidding me! The distance between us and the island is hundreds of meters, how can we have the strength to swim over!" The young woman screamed excitedly.

"That's right, we can't make it that far with our current physical strength, and there are old people and pregnant women among us." The heroic-looking stewardess also advised, "Let's think of a way to see if we can move the lower wing. ..."

"But the time left for us has no room to move it." Wen Siqi fastened the last buckle, stood up and pointed to the sea and said, "The tide has stopped rising, even if you move the wings, the waves can't carry it very far , After the tide level, there will be low tide, and we will probably be taken back to the sea at that time, whether we can come back is unclear, and we have no other choice but to swim across."

"We made it through when we were most desperate. Now hope is close at hand. Why don't you hold on and don't underestimate yourself." After finishing speaking, Wen Siqi sat down, put her legs into the water and slid down slowly, "Come down from Yunyun, mom will take you there. Don't jump, go into the water slowly, so as not to step on the rocks and hurt yourself."

Wen Suiyun nodded his head, and slowly went down into the sea following his mother's words.

"Wrap around mom's neck and don't let go."

"Okay." Wen Suiyun replied crisply, and then peeked at Jiang Xinran quietly, there was great complexity in her small eyes, she wanted to speak but stopped and wrapped her arms around her mother's neck.

At this moment, the scorching sun was in full bloom, and the sunlight left a dazzling white awn on the waves. In a blur, Jiang Xinran saw a figure receding in the distance like a white streak in the waves.

She gritted her teeth and looked aside.

Ye Yajie understood her meaning, grinned and said confusedly: "Honey, I will leave my weak body to you, you must hold on tight, don't let go, I don't want to be a rice dumpling and feed the fish."

She was so thirsty that she could even tell the lack of water in her voice, but Ye Yajie was still laughing like a chatterbox who couldn't stop talking. While she was talking, she checked the life jacket on her body, and she suddenly interrupted with a word of dissatisfaction.

"affectation!"

"Shut your ass—"

"Ya Jie, forget it."

Jiang Xinran hastily stopped Ye Yajie from blurting out her dissatisfaction, "Let's go there as soon as the waves calm down, otherwise it will be difficult."

After all, I went into the water first.

Ye Yajie glared at the young woman angrily, then slowly jumped into the water along the edge of the wreckage, and swam to the shore with Jiang Xinran's body on her side.

"whispering sound!"

The young woman murmured, and another sentence in Nancheng dialect came to her ears.

"Old man, go by yourself."

His voice was old and weak, as if he had lost strength after crying for a long time.

The young woman looked over and saw the old lady lower her head.

The old man was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, "Is your head watered? What nonsense are you talking about. Let's go together!"

The body who was about to get up sat back down again.

The old lady got angry when she got anxious, "You, you...you really want to piss me off! I can't swim, and you're so old, how can you be so brave at this time!

I have lived for more than 70 years, how many days are missing? If you can live to see your child, I will die with peace..."

As the old lady spoke, her mood gradually weakened, and she quietly wiped away her tears.

The old man glanced at her, and said angrily: "You are dead, who will cook for me! I will not rest in peace, I will not go!"

When the old lady heard the words, she became angry again, and a voice rushed ahead of her: "Auntie, let me take you there."

The one who spoke was the middle-aged man who was not easy to get along with. He spoke the same local dialect as the old couple, which the young woman happened to understand.

"No, no, no, I'm too old to understand water, and it will only drag you down...Young man, take him, take him! Please take him with you."

The old lady waved her hands again and again, pointing at the man to her husband with a look of excitement,

"Don't go!"

The old man still pulled his face and refused, "Young man, don't worry about us, just let us go."

"It's okay, Uncle, Auntie, I still have the strength to take someone with me, so let's go together." The man smiled honestly and jumped into the water, reaching out to the old lady, "Auntie, don't refuse, just go Let me do a good deed for my family, and I will take you there."

The young woman looked at the couple and grabbed the life jacket she was wearing. She gritted her teeth and hesitated for a long time. Just when the old lady no longer held on to waiting for death and jumped into the water, the woman took off the life jacket and threw it at the old man. She grabbed her high heels and jumped into the water. Go into the sea and swim to the shore.

"This……"

The old man looked at the life jacket and was at a loss for what to say.

The old man looked at You Yuan's figure, took the life jacket and handed it to the old lady, "Put it on, the little girl is also very kind."

The old lady no longer refused, put on the life jacket and went into the water.

Suddenly, four more people were missing, leaving only two stewardesses and a pregnant woman on the wreckage.

The flight attendants looked at each other, and one of them walked behind the pregnant woman who was about to go into the water, "Ma'am, come with us, so we can take care of you."

The pregnant woman turned her head, joy flashed across her face, "Will it not drag you down?"

"Don't worry, we both have good water skills, as long as there are no accidents, it's okay to bring someone along."

"I... thank you."

The pregnant woman thanked her gratefully, slowly entered the water, and followed the two flight attendants to swim to the shore.

The author has something to say:

PS: Because the information I checked are all from Du Niang, some I can't find the specifics, so it will cause some imprecise situations.What Siqi said in the article (half an hour ago, our speed continued to increase with the wind, presumably caused by the tide), I am not sure whether the tide will affect the wind speed, ocean current speed, the wind on the sea and the wind on the coast. Whether it is in the same direction, and how wide the tide is, I can't find relevant information because of limited means. I only know some obvious phenomena when the tide is high, so don't blame it.
