Chapter 1406 Forty-eight. Reaching the Shore Again
Chapter 1406 Forty-eight. Arriving ashore again
Cold raindrops fell on the outstretched palms.
The splashing water brings coldness.
Looking at the sea, the twisted water forms an abstract painting.
Lu Li retreated into the restaurant amidst the increasing rain. The sound of waves and rain outside gradually became dull.
Flake lightning in the depths of the dark clouds illuminated the dilapidated, dark restaurant. The scattered old food indicated that people had dined here, and the radiation and accumulated blood stains indicated that strange people also dined here.
Stepping over the scattered tableware, Lu Li heard a strange sound like licking as he approached the kitchen.
Squeak——
Pushing open the door, cold and damp air poured into the restaurant.
The wall of the restaurant was broken open, and strong winds poured into the kitchen through the holes, tearing away the fragile food.
Lu Li braved the wind and rain to rescue some vegetables and meat.
No cans.
Rain dripped down his wet black hair. Lu Li stared at the food that was starting to rot and rot. He took nothing away and exited the kitchen.
Not only were they abandoned because of concerns about contamination, but they also had no time to cook them.
Looking out onto the deck, the afternoon was as dark as night, and a sloping curtain of rain shrouded the Immortal Giant. The large ship, which had lost power, was sailing in an unknown direction.
Lu Li left the restaurant in the rain and walked on the slippery deck and stairs back to the cabin.
There are three restaurants on the ship - first class and first class, second and third class, and last class.
The former has just left, and the latter is deep in the cabin, where darkness itself and the beings that inhabit the darkness are surging.
Taking off the extinguished oil lamp hanging on the wall, Lu Li followed the signs everywhere to the second-class dining room.
Frequent flashes of lightning outside the porthole illuminated the outline of the restaurant, but there was still no body. Lu Li walked into the back kitchen and found cans scattered everywhere, rolling with the waves.
Picking up the can opener that had slipped to his feet, Lu Li took off his wet windbreaker, picked up the unleaked cans and wrapped them in the windbreaker, then found a kettle and filled it, then returned the same way with a dozen bottles of cans.
After passing the fork in the road, Lu Li noticed on the sign that a medical room was not far away.
The Immortal Titan, which is said to be unsinkable, can indeed conquer the wind and waves. But people can't. Lu Li, who was holding on to the wall, could no longer bear the dizziness caused by the swaying under his feet, which was far more painful than the jolting of a carriage.
Arrive at the infirmary along the rickety corridor. Someone has arrived here quickly, and blood-stained bandages and medicines are scattered here.
Temporarily hanging his windbreaker on the doorknob, Lu Li opened the drawer and found some drugs with unknown effects.
Fortunately the medicine for seasickness comes on a package with instructions and is sitting in a drawer.
After taking his medicine and windbreaker, Lu Li returned to the first-class cabin and chose an undamaged room near the deck.
Lightning shined into the room through the gap. The swaying room was quickly illuminated by a dim oil lamp. After fixing the lamp on the base, Lu Li pulled up the curtains and took seasickness medicine first.
The seasickness medicine seemed to contain sleeping ingredients, or the increasingly violent shaking made him feel uncomfortable. Not long after he woke up, Lu Li fell asleep again.
He opened the can with a sharp can opener. Lu Li fished out some soaked meat and ate it. He poured out the canned soup and connected the empty cans into canned alarm bells. Then he threw everything that could move out of the room and blocked the room.
He opened the door, placed the alarm bell, put the alarm clock in the drawer, made sure that the oil lamp fuel could last until he woke up, used his last thoughts to fix himself on the bed, and fell asleep.
The insignificant Lu Li fell asleep on the big ship.
The small ship drifted on the rough sea.
The raging waves gathered, lifting the ship up and crashing down, splashing waves that disappeared in an instant.
The distant low roar of the ship's deformation echoed, and the furniture fixed to the floor shook with the rise and fall of the waves. Only Lu Li was tightly tied to the bed.
A strange mist that the storm could not disperse came quietly, shrouding the noisy stormy night.
Wow – Wow –
The heavy rain fell in torrents.
Wow – Wow –
The dark waves surged horribly.
Wow – Wow –
The collision of iron chains echoed in the void.
Murmurs rang outside the door and then faded away. The harsh noises that gradually appeared and scratched against the wall gradually disappeared into the depths. The weird singing sounded leisurely and gradually faded away. The hazy thunder briefly illuminated the outline deep in the mist.
Lu Li is not alone.
The kerosene was getting less and less, and when the burning wick was faint, Lu Li opened his eyes and regained consciousness.
The lack of violent shaking indicates that the ship is far away from the core of the storm.
His eyes fell to the lamp that was about to be turned off. This sleep lasted longer than he imagined, so that his body had not fully recovered and was still sore and tired - or maybe it was shaken by the bumps.
Lu Li untied the strap, opened the drawer and took out the alarm clock: 9:00.
Lightning flashed from time to time outside the dark porthole covered by curtains, and I didn't know whether it was morning or night.
The storm has not stopped yet.
The Immortal Giant may have been carried away from the land by the waves, or it may be heading towards the farmland.
While Lu Li was thinking this, he put back the alarm clock and took off the oil lamp to fill it with kerosene when a sudden shaking came from under his feet. The force was so great that Lu Li was thrown into the air, hit the ceiling, and fell heavily. Then it seemed like
Being pulled by invisible hands, it crashed against the wall along with the debris in the room.
The oil lamp in his eyes was scattered like a ten thousand mirror, and Lu Li fell into darkness again.
…
I don't know how much time passed before Lu Li slowly woke up.
The oil lamp emitting a weak and hazy halo fell in front of my eyes, flickering.
call--
It seemed like an illusion, as if the last kerosene had dried up, a breeze blew by, and the weak wick in the oil lamp was completely extinguished.
All around was shrouded in despair and darkness.
Whispers filled the air in the depths of darkness, and invisible strange claws gathered into outlines, grabbing at Lu Li who was still awake——
Wow——
The lightning that penetrated the window of the curtain and illuminated the rain curtain dragged Lu Li out of the abyss of death.
Lu Li propped up his body in severe pain and pulled down the curtains before darkness enveloped him again.
Purple lightning flashed continuously for a moment, illuminating Lu Li's face.
The pale face reflected in the window had a red and swollen forehead and bleeding from the corners of his mouth. The impact while he was unconscious caused some injuries, but they were only contusions and abrasions. Fortunately, there were no serious injuries that affected his thinking or body.
The torn sheet lightning faded away, and the deep storm remaining on the retina shimmered faintly. There was no strange fog, and it seemed to be daytime now.
It might be early morning, it might be evening.
The floor beneath my feet tilted at a fixed angle and stopped shaking. The Immortal Titan ran aground.
Lu Li returned to the bed and picked up the oil lamp.
Cha—cha—
The fuelless kerosene lamp flickered with sparks.
Giving up on lighting the oil lamp, Lu Li walked to the door and pushed it open a crack.
The sound of gurgling water echoed from the depths of the cabin, and the Immortal Giant could not escape the bad luck of leaking again.
Whether it is stranded or hit a rock, it means that it is very close to land.
When the lightning appeared again, Lu Li stepped onto the corridor, letting the lightning stretch his shadow into a long and narrow space, and stood in front of the deck where the heavy rain was raging.
The lightning that tore through the rainy night illuminated the shadows dormant before our eyes:
A mountain promontory stretches out from the land, its grotesque outline highlighted by the pale lightning.
