After I repeated those words, the guy in the dark seemed very satisfied, and then his tone became much calmer. I only heard him say word by word: "Very good! You have to keep this sentence in mind. In addition, ...You take this with you..."
I was stunned when I heard this. Before I could say anything, the guy stuffed a leather bag into my hand.
I pinched the leather bag with my hand and found that it contained a long object. It was very hard and felt like it was made of metal. It was not big and the shape was a bit weird. It was wider at one end and narrower at the other. Like a key.
I was holding the leather bag in my hand and asked hurriedly: "What is this? Why did you give this to me?"
While I was talking, a lot of water had already poured in from the river. At this time, the water in the cabin was already up to my chest.
I paddled hard and shouted loudly: "Why did you give this to me? What's the use of holding it? Or do you want me to give this to my dad too?"
The guy heard this and replied: "You just need to give it to your dad! You don't need to do anything else...and..."
Before the guy finished speaking, suddenly there was another loud "rumbling" sound from the bottom of the boat.
The loud noise this time was significantly higher than any previous one, and the magnitude of the shaking of the boat was also the same. It was obvious that the big turtle in the river was angry.
If you look at it this way, it is not trying to capsize the ship in front of you, but intends to tear the entire ship into pieces.
With the violent shaking of the hull, several holes were opened in the seemingly sturdy ferry. Within a few breaths, the river water had filled the cabin.
I was not very old and too small at that time, so the water in the river was already over my head in a short time.
And when the river completely submerged me, I seemed to be completely cut off from the outside world. The river was freezing cold, the world in front of me was pitch black, and there was no more noisy roaring in my ears. The only thing that could be heard was " "Gurgling" sound of water.
My heart began to sink, and the blood all over my body began to become colder little by little with the flow of the river. My hands and feet began to paddle desperately in the water, for fear that I would be accidentally washed away by the river. .
But people are often like this. Once they are nervous or scared, the brain will automatically filter out a lot of information, especially some very important things. So at this time, I had long forgotten what the guy told me before, and I simply forgot about it. I can't remember swimming out from the gap on the lower left.
I was a little panicked, and I paddled my hands and feet desperately to float to the surface, but after a long time of effort, I could only barely expose my nose, because at this moment, the entire cabin was filled with water.
At this moment, I suddenly felt someone grabbed me on the back of my neck, and immediately after, the guy pulled me back into the water with all his strength.
This man was very strong and dragged me all the way to the lower left. Only then did I remember what the guy in the dark said.
"By the way, five meters below and to the left... that's the only way to escape..." I thought to myself, "That guy probably couldn't stand it anymore, so he dragged me there..."
Thinking of this, I turned my head in the water and swam toward the gap like a fish.
Although I didn't grow up by the sea, my water skills are not bad. Among the friends I often play with, I am not only the fastest swimmer, but I can also hold my breath the longest, except for one named Xiong Ming. That guy, that guy is from Fujian, so he can't be considered a human at all. If you throw him into the water, he's just a fucking fish.
After calming down, I was no longer so scared. I held my breath and swam out from the gap under the ferry in one breath.
And not long after I swam out of the ferry, the big turtle hit the ferry again. A few seconds later, there were several loud "rumblings" from the ferry behind me. It was not necessarily the engine. The big turtle couldn't bear the impact and exploded.
The explosion produced a huge shock wave. Even though I was in the water, I was still unable to survive. I felt like my whole body was being blown away by a big invisible hand.
This force may not seem very strong, but only those who have experienced it know how unbearable it is. In addition, I was too young at that time. I just felt my heart tightening, my head sinking, and the next second Just don’t know anything anymore.
I don’t know how long it took, but when I woke up, I was already lying in the hospital, and our old man and Uncle Xu were sitting beside my bed.
I originally thought that the first thing our old man said when he saw me was to blame me for running around, but what I didn’t expect was that the first thing he asked was: "Xiaotian, how are you? Do you feel anything? Not feeling very comfortable?"
This is the first time in my life that our old man has spoken to me in such a gentle and kind tone. Although it sounds a little wrong, it still feels very comfortable.
Seeing that I didn't answer, Uncle Xu said hurriedly: "Xiaotian, what did your dad ask you...how do you feel?"
I pointed to the enamel jar next to me and said, "I want to drink some water... I'm so thirsty!"
Hearing what I said, our old man hurriedly reached for the enamel jar, helped me start cooking, and said: "It just happened to be cold and white... drink it slowly!"
I was really thirsty, so I took the enamel jar and drank all the cold water in it in one breath.
Seeing my virtue, our old man let out a sigh of relief and said to Uncle Xu next to him: "Second brother, judging from the way this kid looks, he is probably fine!"
Second Uncle Xu laughed at the side and said: "Yes! Not to mention, this guy's physique is really a little bit like yours!"
"Dad...Second Uncle..." Our old man wanted to say something, but I interrupted him.
Our old man turned to me and asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
I shook my head and said: "It's nothing... don't worry! Didn't my second uncle just say that? My body shape is up to you. Even though I am young, my body shape is not bad at all..."
Our old man nodded, and then asked, "What's wrong with you?"
I said, "How many days have I been lying here?"
Our old man thought for a while and then said: "From the time the ferry exploded... to the time we found you... it should be the third day..."
"What? It's the third day?" I was shocked. I sat up straight and shouted, "Hurry up and go...or else we won't make the trip!"
