Then, under my arrangement, we first put the life raft down, and then asked a few people to help it below. Then we put water and some supplies on the raft. After putting the things on it, we asked a group of people to help them. The Bo people went to the island first and left two people there guarding with guns.

The people guarding the ship for the first time were two crew members. These two people had excellent water skills. Even if the savages suddenly attacked and they couldn't resist it with their guns, they could swim back directly.

When I was about to transport the second wave of supplies, Black Loach suddenly screamed in the cabin. I realized that something might have happened to the old shark, so I ran over quickly.

Sure enough, the old shark had expired at this time. Black Loach and I also performed some rescue operations, but to no avail. Black Loach was Old Shark’s apprentice and had a pretty good relationship with him, so Old Shark left. It also made him quite sad.

As for how to dispose of the old shark's body, Black Loach said that the old shark had said before that he spent most of his life at sea, so after his death he hoped to throw his body on the sea and let the creatures in the sea slowly kill him. Eat it and degrade it, so you can be considered to be with the sea forever.

Since this was the old shark's last wish, we had no choice but to carry the old shark outside, then slowly put it into the water, and watched as the old shark's body slowly floated into the distance.

Because time was tight, we quickly gathered our emotions and continued to deliver supplies to the island. Maybe it was because there had been no sea breeze and waves for a long time, so everyone was a little slack at this time.

Jianzui tried to persuade me again. He said: "I think everything is fine. Otherwise, let's wait on the boat first. It will be more dangerous if we go to the island."

I still said the same thing, anyone who doesn’t want to leave can stay on the boat. Jianzui naturally didn’t have the guts and courage to stay on the boat, so he had to sigh and say follow us to the island.

After the supplies were almost delivered, the rest of us began to move towards the island. During this period, there were no problems. When everyone arrived at the island, the sea was still very calm, that is, there were many remaining on the east coast. The carcasses of sharks and whales still bear witness to the horrific scene that happened before.

"Then what should we do now, just wait here?" Xiao Zhuzi asked at this time.

"Well, we'll just have to wait," I said.

"What should Uncle Su and the others do? They probably won't last long in the water, right?"

I said that based on the oxygen in the oxygen tank, we should be able to survive for more than half an hour. Let's wait and see the situation first. If the sea remains calm, we can try to contact the sunken ship to see if we can find them.

"How about I try rowing the whole life raft over there first? See if there is any danger in front of those whale and shark carcasses?" Xiao Zhuzi volunteered at this time.

I thought that this guy really risked his life for Xiaoye. This was just Xiaoye's father, not Xiaoye himself. If Xiaoye himself was trapped there, he would definitely not let our ship leave the sunken area in the morning.

But I thought about it, why am I not? If it were Xiaoye, I would not agree to the old shark sailing away. Even if the boat was knocked over by a whale, I would probably wait there all the time.

Zhao Hu cursed at this time: "Do you really want to die that much? Our ship of hundreds of tons can't get through, and you want to save people with a broken raft? Who do you think you are, Sun Wukong?"

The pigtail said seriously: "I mean, you can row over slowly to see the situation. What if those corpses only attack the big ship, but have no attack power on small rafts like life rafts? It's always okay to try. Well, if things have changed before we get here, I will just come back."

"I'm related to Uncle Su. I'm not in a hurry. Why are you in a hurry?" Zhao Hu patted his sharp mouth and said.

Jianzui also persuaded Xiaozi: "I understand your feelings. You are afraid that if something happens to Uncle Su, Xiaoye will be sad later and blame us, right? But the situation is too dangerous now. We have to save our own lives first, right? You Don’t worry, when I go back and see Xiaoye, I will explain the situation to her, and she won’t be surprised..."

"Oops!" Xiao braid interrupted the sharp mouth: "I'm not saying that I'm just afraid of Xiaoye's blame or anything, I just think that Uncle Su can be saved. Don't you want to save him? We have to find a way to try."

Maybe because he felt that others couldn't make the decision, the pigtail looked at me again: "Jianjun, we've known Uncle Su since we've known each other. You should know how he treats us. I think we are safe now, right?" We should think of some way to save Uncle Su."

"Oh, you fucking want to die yourself, and you want to persuade Jianjun to die too, you..."

When Zhao Hu said this, I raised my hand to signal him to stop talking. Then I looked at the pigtail and said, "I think you are right. We should really try to save him. If the corpses in the life raft don't attack, , we may be able to rescue Uncle Su and the others."

As soon as I said this, Zhao Hu immediately became anxious. He said, "The problem is, the carcasses of sharks and whales are covered with the entire sea surface. You can't row across them with a life raft. When you reach the edge of the carcasses, what would you do?"

I said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Then I'll climb up along the whale carcass, and then step over it."

"Aren't you talking nonsense? The whale's body is so slippery and it can roll. Can you walk on it?"

"If it really doesn't work, I'll dive into the water when I get there, take a look through the water, or use an underwater flashlight to shine down there, or even give Uncle Su and the others directions so they can swim this way."

"Eh!" Jianzui thought of something at this time, and he said hurriedly: "I think with my uncle's mind, when they approached the water and found that it was full of corpses, he would definitely understand what happened, and he would also be able to guess. Our ship may have already sailed away to protect itself, so doesn’t he know that staying where he is and waiting for the oxygen to run out will eventually lead to death?”

The sharp words reminded me, and I said, "Yes, if I were Uncle Su, I wouldn't sit there and wait to die. I would definitely find a way to survive."

"Then what will you think of?" Jianzui asked.

I said that I might swim towards the island. When the critical moment comes, I will go directly to the island, and I won’t care about the savages or not.

"Yes!" Jianzui nodded: "What I mean is that uncle and the others may have swam from the bottom of the water and came to the island, but we are not sure of their location yet."

I said stop inking and turn on the flashlight quickly to show them the way.

Then we turned on several flashlights, some looking underwater and some looking up into the sky. Of course, when we turned on the flashlights, we were naturally exposed to the sight of the savages, but we couldn’t care less about it now. There are so many. Anyway, we have guns and are not afraid of savages.

Due to the limited penetrating ability of underwater light, I was afraid that the flashlight light would not be able to reach very far. In the end, I decided to paddle the life raft with Xiao Zizi and continue to move forward for a certain distance towards the sunken ship, trying to get as close as possible to Uncle Su and the others.

Zhao Hu also said that I was the commander-in-chief and I should stay here. He followed Xiaozizi over. I said that I mainly wanted to go there to see the horror of the corpse in person, so Xiaozizi and I should go there.

"Then let the two of us go and keep the pigtails. We are old partners." Zhao Hu said.
