Chapter 494 Buying tires makes it easier to cross the sea


Wang Jin is quite happy. Now they have 10 tires, which is equivalent to buying a layer of insurance.

"Everyone listen to me, now go peel off the bark of the tree to use as a rope. We will tie 10 tires and connect them together, and then get some branches on top to make a raft, so that we will not walk while swimming in the sea. Lost.”

The others nodded repeatedly when they heard this, "Okay, listen to Brother Jin."

The 10 people acted together, peeling the bark off the trees and picking up the branches. Huang Xiaoji was lucky and found two wooden boards, which could be used as paddles.

Wang Jin also prepared a few wooden sticks to defend himself in case he encountered bad guys after landing ashore.

There are actually countless stowaways in the mangroves, including men, women, old and young, and people with various accents.

And many of them are retired soldiers recruited by Lin Sanqi.

But there were 10 of Wang Jin and others in total, and all of them were strong and tough to deal with, so no one dared to step forward to grab the tire.

Many people made up their minds and decided to quietly follow these 10 people at night, in case these people had a good conscience and could help them.

Blackness began to cover the land.

Wang Jin has been observing the situation of the sea surface. When the tide rises, the sea water makes a splashing sound. When the tide stabilizes, the water surface begins to calm down again.

Wang Jin knew that it was almost time. At this time, the sky and the earth were vast and dark, and it was impossible to distinguish between east, west, north and south.

If there is no direction, it is really difficult to cross the sea, because when you reach the sea, you will be swept by the tide several times, and you will not be able to tell the difference between east, west, north and south.

Not everyone looks for the North Star, and not every night there are stars in the sky.

"Everyone, be prepared. The tide has stopped rising. We are ready to set off. Please note that we only have 3 hours to cross the sea. Now everyone counts and determines the number of people."

Lu Xuezhi, here!

Zhao Jintao, here!

Huang Hua, here!

……

Huang Xiaoji, here! ”

"Okay, we are all ten brothers. Let's set out now. After arriving in Xiangjiang, we must not be missing any one of us. For the sake of our wives and children at home, we must succeed, come on!"

"Come on, come on!!!"

Wang Jin and others pushed the temporary "raft" out of the mangrove forest. Everyone climbed on, picked up the wooden planks and prepared to paddle south.

But after paddling for a few minutes, Liu Genchun exclaimed:

"Brother Jin, someone is grabbing our raft here!"

Wang Jin gritted his teeth, thinking that one more person is not a lot, and one less person is not a lot. Forget it, just treat it as saving people, and if others want to take a ride, just take it.

As a result, Zhao Jintao on the other side also shouted:

"Who are you? Don't touch our ship!"

There was a man in the water. He begged for mercy at this time: "Comrade, please do well. I won't get on the raft, so I will hold on to the branches and ask you to take me across the sea."

"Brother Jin, there are people here grabbing our tires."

Wang Jin suddenly woke up. Although he could not see clearly in the dark night, he could hear people swimming towards their raft in the sea.

It was said to be a raft, but it was just a makeshift piece of 10 tires. It could barely carry the 10 grown men on board, and it would have turned a blind eye if it took only one or two people on board.

But if dozens or even hundreds of people gather around and everyone wants to ride on their boat, there is only one outcome.

The raft would definitely fall apart or sink, and no one would be able to leave.

Huang Hua was a little anxious and exclaimed: "Brother Jin, what should I do?"

Wang Jin took a deep breath, knowing that this was not the time to be kind to a woman, so he cruelly shouted to the escapee next to the raft:

"You all let go. If you don't let go, we won't be polite!"

A man begged: "Comrade, please take me across the sea!"

There was a young woman's voice: "Comrade, take me across the sea. You can do whatever you want with me. I will be your wife!"

An elderly voice also sounded: "We are all Chinese, we must unite!"

"Yeah, you can't be so selfish!"

"If we want to leave, let's all go together, please!"

Wang Jin's scalp felt numb when he heard that there were more and more people on the raft, and the raft had begun to shake from side to side, obviously unable to support everyone's clinging.

"Brother Jin, what should I do?"

"Brother Jin..."

Wang Jin took a deep breath again and shouted:

"Fuck them, hit them until they let go. Wang Shen, Xiao Yu, Fan Dengfeng, Huang Hua, the three of you row hard for me, don't stop."

The greatest advantage of soldiers is that they obey orders in all actions. Wang Jin is now their "leader", and he does whatever the leader says.

Lu Xuezhi, Zhao Jintao, Shi Nan, Liu Genchun, Huang Xiaoji, and Wang Jin simultaneously raised the wooden sticks and planks in their hands, gritted their teeth and began to smash them at the people clinging to the raft.

"Ah, ah!!!"

"Oh, help, you can't do this!!!"

"You are so cruel, are you just watching us die!!!" "I have gold, take me on the ship, I will give it all to you!!!"

Wang Jin gritted his teeth and his veins popped out, "Smash it all down!"

Everyone on the raft went crazy, hitting people like crazy, rowing like crazy, accompanied by crying, cursing, and begging for mercy. It didn't look like a hell on earth at all.

At first the raft moved very slowly because there were too many people pulling it, and then it became lighter and lighter because there were so many people who had to let go.

Finally, the raft was light and swooped out. Finally, there was no one clinging to it, only the sound of the oars rapidly paddling toward the boundless sea.

"Woooooo~~~"

On the raft, the youngest and youngest Huang Xiaoji cried.

Wang Jin sat on the raft, as if he had lost half his life, and slapped himself hard twice.

Everyone was silent, because today's events have far exceeded their three views and completely deviated from education.

Zhao Jintao said softly:

"I have a pair of twin boys who don't have enough to eat every day and howl with hunger. One time I saw them picking up sheep dung and eggs to eat. My wife was a very juicy girl before we got married. Now she has no skin and a butt. No more, just touch a handful of bones.

Please...you...collect_6_9_书_吧 (六//九//书//吧)

I signed up to go to Xiangjiang just for money. With money, I can buy food and clothes for my wife and children. I just want them to be fed and clothed. I want them to live well, and I want our family to be happy, without leaving any one behind. ”

Fan Dengfeng also spoke:

"When my mother was alive, she was lying in bed, complaining about stomachache every day, and asking us to save her. But I had no money, so I borrowed 50 kilograms of sweet potatoes from the village, hired a doctor, and took a lot of traditional Chinese medicine, but it didn't work.


The doctor said it was intestinal carbuncle and that she had to be sent to a local hospital and that surgery would be needed to save my mother's life. But I have no money. I haven’t returned the 50 kilograms of sweet potatoes, and the village can’t lend them to me anymore. Then my mother hurt her to death like this. I was unfilial and I didn’t need money. ”

Shi Nan said weakly: "We are not wrong, we just want to live. We also bought these tires. The money was given by Colonel Lin personally, not by the state."

"Yes, we are not wrong. For the sake of my wife, children, and parents, we are not wrong!"

"It was close at that time, otherwise none of us would be able to leave. If they want to survive, they should find a way on their own!"

Wang Jin took the wooden board from Wang Shen and shouted:

"Paddle, paddle hard against the Xiangjiang River. We are not wrong. We just want to live and feed and clothe our families. We are not wrong!!!"

"Here I go, paddle hard!"

"Substitute, I'll row!"

……

……

Three hours later, the raft finally docked in the New Territories.

Fortunately, 10 people took turns paddling, and fortunately these 10 people were all strong, otherwise it would have been difficult for ordinary people to persevere after paddling for a full 3 hours.

Wang Jin felt that the raft had run aground. When he knew that he had reached the shore, he breathed a sigh of relief:

"Brothers, with the blessing of our ancestors, we have finally arrived in Xiangjiang."

Huang Xiaoji touched his sour shoulder and asked:

"Brother Jin, didn't you say there are only 5 kilometers? Why do I feel like there are 15 kilometers?"

Wang Jin's mood has recovered and he replied with a smile:

"We don't understand the ocean currents in this bay, so we probably veered off course. But we finally set foot on the land of Xiangjiang. Our revolution has been half successful."

"Hey~~ Xiangjiang, here we come~~"

"Brothers, make money and get rich, and your ancestors will be honored~~~"

"Hahaha~~~"

Wang Jin and others were talking and laughing as they jumped off the raft and walked towards the land across the sea and mountains.

"Everyone sit down and rest for a while."

Wang Jin ordered, and then took out a flashlight from his backpack, along with a map of Xiangjiang provided by Lin Sanqi.

"Brothers, we have arrived in Xiangjiang now. From the map, we should be in Yuen Long now, which is about 40 kilometers away from the city of Kowloon.

Colonel Lin said that we can only apply for Hong Kong ID cards as refugees when we reach Kowloon or Hong Kong Island, so our next task is how to reach Kowloon.

My suggestion is that since Colonel Lin has not given us a time limit, we should try to find a place to rest during the day and start walking at night, so that we can pass through the checkpoints halfway without being deported. What do you think? ”

Several other people expressed their stance: "We listen to Brother Jin."

"Okay, let's find an empty house first, or hide in the mountains, and then..."

"Who?"

Before Wang Jin finished speaking, he suddenly stood up: "Who is it? Come forward." (End of Chapter)
