Chapter 186 When the dove of peace streaks across the sky 28
Under the onslaught of firepower at all costs, the agents soon fell to the deck in a mess.
These people mistakenly believed that the hunting mission had been successfully completed and that they had lived up to the country's entrustment, so they died contentedly.
The captain stayed where he was, watching their corpses burst into rage.
Fortunately, the first mate and his crew searched the entire ship as quickly as possible and found no bombs or suspicious items containing explosive devices.
This should be the best news he has heard so far.
The captain walked slowly to the broken railing.
A strong wind blew from the sky, and the sea water moved forward rapidly.
Only 2 minutes had passed, and they were already quite far away from where Elton fell into the sea.
When a ship is traveling on the sea, it is absolutely not allowed to anchor at will. Firstly, the anchor chain is not long enough and cannot sink to the bottom. Secondly, this is not a prescribed anchoring point. Once the extended anchor hooks the reef, it is likely to cause this. If the ship capsizes, everyone will be dead at the bottom of the sea.
Therefore, even if the captain really wanted to try his luck and send people back to rescue Elton, he was powerless at the moment.
He was able to get people to rush onto the ship right before his eyes, and had them kill a total of twelve scholars and crew members. Such serious mistakes in his work made it obvious that he was in this position for the rest of his life.
However, the matter has come to this, and there is no point in worrying about it.
The most important thing now is to send other survivors to the island safely.
The captain sighed, and in a deep voice ordered his men to clean the deck, then turned and walked towards the wheelhouse.
After returning from the island, Captain Oden immediately resigned. In order to avoid criminal liability, he donated half of his family property to the military for free.
……
Both the government and the military were unwilling to accept Elton's fall into the sea.
They also know in their hearts that if they fall into the sea, or fall into the sea while injured, their hope of survival is very slim.
With a sense of luck, they took turns sending people to salvage and search for it, but in addition to the tangled seaweed, they only found some rings and necklaces hanging on the coral.
But Elton, or his body, was never found even if they dived to a depth of 300 meters.
The final conclusion reached was that he had been buried in the belly of the fish.
Of course Ling Liang did not die in the belly of a fish. He was actually picked up and taken home to recuperate.
After falling into the sea, following the instructions of 999, Ling Liang endured the severe pain in his arm and swam for more than an hour before reaching the nearest shore.
Needless to say, the process was extremely painful, and he was able to survive it entirely by relying on his willpower.
By the time he stepped onto solid land, he was already exhausted. Coupled with the excessive blood loss, Ling Liang fainted as the world was spinning.
Seeing the host fall to the ground unconscious, 999 felt bad.
If the Heavenly Dao here is willing to temporarily let go of its suppression of outsiders, it actually has the ability to directly send the host ashore.
…It’s useless to think too much.
999 looked around and saw no one around, so he sneaked out of the sea of consciousness, intending to treat the host's wounds first.
But as soon as it took out the medicine box, it saw a man and a woman coming out of the woods in front of it.
According to the regulations of the administration, the system cannot be exposed to people, so 999 had no choice but to hurriedly return to the sea of consciousness.
This man and woman are husband and wife, and they are going to work on a farm far away from here. They are both employees of that farm.
Passing by here, I happened to see Ling Liang lying on the beach, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
After the initial fright, the couple discussed it and decided that they could not ignore the situation and took the person home.
Because he stayed in the cold sea water for too long, Ling Liang developed a low fever that night, which turned into a high fever in the second half of the night.
The couple went to the clinic and asked a doctor to remove the bullet for him, and they watched him beside the bed all night in fear.
Fortunately, the fever subsided in the morning and I slowly woke up.
After recovering from his injuries, Ling Liang said goodbye to this family. He had more important things to do and could not waste any more time.
On the day of departure, their youngest daughter, Alice, jumped up and down to see him off.
She is only six years old, innocent and cute. Although one of her front teeth has fallen out due to the teething period, and her speech is somewhat leaky, this cannot stop her love and curiosity about the world.
"Will you come back, uncle?" Alice held Ling Liang's hand and shook it happily, raising her little face and asking him.
"will not."
Even though the truth was a bit shocking, Ling Liang did not choose to lie and deceive her, "If nothing else happens, we should never meet again."
Disappointment immediately appeared in Alice's eyes, "Can't uncle stay? We are very good here."
Ling Liang shook his head, "There is a time to gather and part ways, and now it's time for me to leave. Uncle has something he must do... Anyway, thank you for your love and retention."
"Oh, okay." She frowned and kicked the pebbles on the road. After being unhappy for a while, her mood became clear again.
He is a child after all.Ling Liang laughed dumbly.
"Where will uncle go after he leaves us?" Alice raised a new question.
Ling Liang: "Go to a very, very far place."
"Wow..." Alice exclaimed.
The farthest place she had ever been was her grandmother's house since she was a child. She had to walk for several hours and climb a hillside to get there.
But the uncle said that the place he wanted to go was "very, very far", that is, further than grandma's house.
It's amazing to be able to go to such a far place alone.
Ling Liang's image in the little girl's heart suddenly improved a lot.
She took out her little hand, patted the back of Ling Liang's hand, and said seriously like an adult: "Then be careful on the road."
The two of them had already reached the main road. Ling Liang quickly asked the child to go back quickly. Her parents should worry before sending her away.
"Uncle, I will miss you!"
Alice desperately held back her tears and opened her arms to him for a hug.
Ling Liang knelt down in cooperation, hugged her gently, and helped her straighten the hairpin on her head, "Okay, go back quickly, your family is still waiting for you."
Alice then walked back reluctantly.
"By the way, remember to open the bedroom drawer and take a look when you get home." Ling Liang reminded her from behind.
"Did you put something in there?"
Alice was very smart and reacted quickly. She stopped in surprise and asked repeatedly, "What is it?"
Ling Liang did not answer directly, but smiled and urged her, "Go back quickly, you can reveal the answer yourself."
Alice cheered and ran away from him happily.
Ling Liang put a pocket watch in the drawer.
It was a birthday gift that Mrs. Tanya bought for him a long time ago. The pattern engraved on it is very exquisite. The cover and bracelet are made of pure gold, and a pure ruby is embedded between the two hands.
At the time, Ling Liang thought this thing was flashy, but after buying it, he couldn't just leave it alone, so he always kept it with him.
Who would have thought that one day, this pocket watch would be of great help.
Alice's parents were kind enough to save him, but they insisted on not wanting any reward. They said they saved him without any thought of repaying him.
But he has noble ideas, how could Ling Liang really refuse to give it to him? That would be too cold-hearted.
The sad thing is that his luggage was left on the boat. Now that he is short of money and doesn't have a single coin on him, he thinks about leaving the pocket watch, hoping that Alice's family will not dislike it.
Ling Liang looked at the little figure running forward, turned around and hurriedly left here.
During the Cold War, various countries implemented strict controls on entry and exit, restricting domestic people from leaving and denying entry to foreigners.
The port is patrolled day and night, and the window for selling tickets has been closed. Ling Liang is left with only one very risky option - stowaway.
The cost of smuggling is not cheap, but Ling Liang is now penniless.
Upon seeing this, 999 waved his hand and boldly took out a piece of gold nugget the size of a football and handed it to the host lightly.
You may not be able to help with other things, so just look for it when it comes to money.
Hum hum, it is not a useless system. 999 thought proudly.
After quickly disposing of the gold nugget, Ling Liang took the huge sum of money and boarded an overcrowded private ferry boat.
There were many difficulties along the way, but luckily there was no danger in the end.
After more than half a month of voyage, Ling Liang finally successfully set foot on the land of country Z.
It was night at this time, and a bright moon hung high in the night sky, casting soft moonlight on the sea.
This situation and scene can be painted.Ling Liang stopped to admire it for a moment, then quickly turned and left.
