This is the second day on the lifeguard. I have no strength to move. I have not eaten or drank water all day and night. I feel like I don’t even want to move my little finger, but lying down is just as uncomfortable.
It felt weird to have the sun unblocked on the lifeguard. Because the weather is obviously not hot, and the sea breeze is a bit cool, but after being exposed to the sun for a long time, the moisture in the body evaporates quickly, and my lips are already chapped.
I tried to add my lips with my tongue, but unfortunately my tongue is also very dry... The friction between the lips and the tongue is like two dry sea surfaces.
Xiaofeng didn't move, just hummed from time to time. I called her, but Xiaofeng didn't answer. I frowned and tried to move myself over, then reached out and touched her forehead.
The sea water on his body had long since dried up, and his clothes and body... especially his hair seemed to have a faint layer of salt frost, which gave off a strange smell.
Xiaofeng's forehead is a little hot, I don't know if she has a fever... because my palm has lost the sharp feeling, I just feel hot... But maybe this is my illusion.
"Am I going to die?" Xiaofeng's voice was so weak that I had to lean close to her head to hear it.
"I don't know." I answered her in a dry tone, and then swallowed my spit hard—if I still spit, my throat was about to burst into flames: "Maybe we're all going to die."
Xiaofeng turned her head to face me, her face was gray and blue, but there was a strange gleam in her eyes, and then she asked me in a very serious tone: "Xiao Wu, do you want to die?"
"I don't want to. No one wants to die." I said lightly, "If you want to live longer, it's best for us not to talk. Talking too much will make your mouth dry."
"Is there a difference?" Xiaofeng squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying. To be honest, she looks very haggard, very haggard... Originally, although Xiaofeng was not very beautiful, she was very charming, and she was good at dressing up... Women in her profession are very good at dressing up. But now her face looks very old, the wrinkles at the corners of the eyes, and the forehead lines on the forehead are very obvious, and the skin has lost its luster and elasticity...
She looked ten years older.
"Before you die, do you have any wishes?" Xiaofeng asked in a low voice.
"Yes." I stopped looking at her, but looked at the sky, but then I closed my eyes because the sun was too dazzling: "There are too many wishes."
"for example?"
I sighed, although my throat was so dry that I really didn't want to talk, but I felt that what Xiaofeng said was right... Is there a difference? They're all dead anyway...
"My biggest wish is to drink a glass of iced Coke right now!" I licked my lips hard, swallowed hard, suddenly regained my energy, and gestured with my hand: "The kind with a big bottle, as soon as you unscrew the bottle The lid... Whoops!! A puff of air rushed up! Then I got some ice cubes and poured them into the cup... Swallow them in one gulp! While swallowing, I bit those ice cubes..." The more I said, the more I got into it, and I couldn't help closing my eyes Start hallucinating.
I hallucinated for a while, and suddenly felt that there was no sound in my ears. I glanced at Xiaofeng, only to find that she had passed out. Hurry over and pat her on the face.
Xiaofeng barely opened her eyes, woke up faintly, looked at me, the focus in her eyes was only a little bit aligned, and said softly: "I just... fell asleep? I'm too tired... I always want to close... Close... eyes, but I... dare not..." She suddenly took a deep breath: "I know... as long as I fall asleep, I won't be able to wake up."
I sighed and looked at her without speaking.
Xiaofeng seems to be on the verge of dying. She was originally weak and sick. After soaking in sea water for so long, and now she has neither food nor drink, she seems to be dying soon!
Xiaofeng suddenly smiled... Her smile, I don't know why, I always feel a trace of cruelty in it... She looked at me: "It's really unexpected that the two of us... will die, die together."
I was speechless, and I couldn't even laugh.
Indeed, I never thought of it. We two completely unrelated people will die together in the end!
"I'm very afraid of death." Xiaofeng said seriously, her voice was already very low, I had to put my ear close to hear it, and she seemed to be struggling to move her lips: "But...someone is with me Death... I feel a little better. I am very relieved that you will die with me!" The light in her eyes was a little evil. But her eyes fell on my face, and a trace of hesitation flashed in her eyes.
I smiled.
She suddenly lifted her finger slightly and struggled for a while. I glanced at her and finally figured out that she wanted to sit up: "What are you doing? Don't move around."
"I want to take another look... take a look." Xiaofeng's face suddenly glowed with a strange brilliance, and the ashes in his eyes, like a dry river, suddenly flowed into the water again: "I want to look again. Take a look, take a look at the world... "
Sighing, I went over and picked her up with both hands, letting her lean against the edge of the inflatable raft. Xiaofeng's body was shaking constantly, and it was very heavy, she had no strength at all.
Looking around, her eyes were full of disappointment... because there was nothing around, except sea water, which was still sea water!
She closed her eyes slowly... To be honest, I thought she died just like that... Because she was breathing very weakly, and her chest didn't rise and fall, I thought she was really dead...
But just when I was thinking this way, she suddenly opened her eyes again, her eyes were already slack... But she searched hard for a while, as if I was close at hand, but it seemed difficult for her to focus her eyes on my face.
"Xiao Wu!" She didn't know where the strength came from, and suddenly said, "I regret it."
"What?"
"You shouldn't die." There was something almost crazy in her eyes: "I think you will die with me, and I will go to hell with someone beside me, so I won't be afraid... But I regret it, you don't deserve to die. "
Her language has become fluent! I know, it's a flashback!
"You shouldn't suffer such a result." Xiaofeng chuckled: "You are a good person, and a good person shouldn't die like this. And from the boat to here, you have helped me three times... I can't drag you to accompany me Die together, that would be too sinful for me."
I sighed, it seemed that Xiaofeng had gone crazy before she died. I couldn't bear to say anything, so I could only follow her words and whisper: "Okay, I just don't die."
She smiled, a little mysteriously...
Then he raised his fingertips vigorously, and pointed to his pants... the left pocket!
"I didn't want to tell you just now, you just die with me. But people can't do this, you helped me, so I changed my mind." She almost took a breath after saying a word: "Look there. "
There was a zipper on the pocket, I frowned and pulled it open, and something was immediately revealed from inside!
That is a mineral water bottle! ! ! ! !
I immediately exclaimed and took out the bottle! God bless, the water inside is almost full! Just a little bit less!
I immediately recalled that this bottle was given to me by the Vietnamese under the fat man before I went out to sea! And on the day on the smuggling boat, Xiaofeng was taken out by those bastards... After returning, I gave her this bottle of water! Let her... clean up her body!
"You... useless?" I held the bottle and looked at Xiaofeng.
There was a crazy smile in Xiaofeng's eyes, and then slowly shook her head: "I want to use it, but I feel that I am already very dirty, it doesn't matter whether I wash it or not..." She burst into tears and looked at me: "I was wrong ! I was so wrong!"
She struggled and said: "I have done too many wrong things... Even just now, I was thinking of not telling you, dragging you to die with me... I am a bitch! A bitch!!" She suddenly opened her mouth , stuffed his hand into it forcefully, and bit it.
I hurriedly opened her hand, but Xiaofeng had only breathed out but not breathed in... Her lips were still trembling, her eyes had lost their light, as if she was still muttering something before she died...
I immediately leaned down and leaned close to her, my ear close to her lips: "What did you say? What else do you want to say?"
"XXXXXXXX..." She seemed to be reporting a long series of numbers, and I recognized that these were two sets of numbers! She said it over and over again, although her breath was already very weak, she seemed to be very persistent and still refused to die, and finished reading these two sets of numbers again and again.
I finally understood what she meant, and hurriedly said loudly: "I remember it! I remember it! Don't worry, I remember it!"
Xiaofeng finally heard my shout, and a relieved smile appeared on her face: "... bank account number... password... money... good people... don't deserve to die."
I don't have any feelings for Xiaofeng, but watching this woman's dying struggle at this moment, I feel a sense of sadness, and a surge of sourness surges up. She suddenly opened her eyes, and shouted with all her strength: "In the next life, I will not be a woman!!"
This shout was hoarse, and after shouting, Xiaofeng tilted her head and died.
I stayed there, and after half a minute, I shook her vigorously a few times, but Xiaofeng didn't move at all. I measured her pulse and heartbeat, and her breathing...all stopped.
I'm sure she's really dead.
This woman, who had no grievances or friendship with me, died in front of me. She is not a good person, and it can even be said that the deeds she did did not know how many people were harmed... But seeing a person I knew died in front of me, I still couldn't help being at a loss... I felt empty in my heart.
I sat down in a daze, leaned against the side and panted for a while. After a while, I squeezed the bottle in my hand. The hard feeling immediately lifted my spirits.
I felt my hands shaking, shaking so badly! I struggled to twist open the mineral water bottle, and brought the mouth of the bottle to my mouth with an almost religious feeling...
The cool liquid flowed into my mouth, immediately moistening the dry and old mouth, and then the coolness slipped down the esophagus, as if to extinguish the flame in my throat!
If there is a God in this world... Then I dare say, at this moment, I saw God smiling at me in the sky!
Because, the water in this bottle is not fresh water! But more useful than fresh water!
A little sweet and a little salty...
I recognized it immediately... it was glucose water for oral use! ! !
An inexplicable emotion surged up in my heart, it was the instinctive desire of human beings to survive! ! At this moment, I burst into tears...
