Siheyuan, I want to lie down but I become a tool

Chapter 492 Arriving on the Other Side

Before reaching the beach, Zhang Xingwang spotted several furtive figures. There seemed to be four or five people, and there seemed to be a woman among them.

A group of people dug towards the shore and actually dug out a few pieces of wood. They immediately felt that this time they had a more reliable plan. It seemed that they were not the only smart ones and that this group of people must have been keeping an eye on the patrol team for a long time.

After hesitating for a while, Zhang Xingwang decided to go with them so that he could have some companionship. After watching the group of people go into the water, he quickly followed and started to go into the water about fifty meters away from the group.

The sea water was very cold. According to Xiao Zhang, many people froze to death after staying in the water for too long and suffering from hypothermia. Although Zhang Xingwang had no problem with his physique and physical strength, his swimming skills were really not that good. After a while, the distance between him and the group of people was getting farther and farther.

This was in line with Zhang Xingwang's plan. After all, it was really inappropriate for so many boats to suddenly appear. Unexpectedly, two people in front of him left the team and seemed to be slowly approaching him. Zhang Xingwang's heart suddenly tightened, and he began to observe while swimming.

Two men swam over. Zhang Xingwang had good eyesight. He stopped and then flapped his arms to see what the two men were going to do. They were indeed professionals. One of them carried several sealed glass bottles with him, and the other was even more prepared. He held a wooden basin and rode the wind and waves in a very cool manner.

The man had no intention of getting closer and stopped about ten meters away from Zhang Xingwang.

"Hurry up and swim back. You will never make it to the other side with your current level. Go back and practice more. Don't die in vain."

Zhang Xingwang was stunned. He didn't expect that these two people were actually kind-hearted. They just looked down on others. He silently moved a bunch of guys out of the space...

The man who was shouting looked at the wooden basin that was two sizes bigger than his and the "life buoy" emerging from the water, and felt that he was a bit too talkative. With this equipment, swimming doesn't require just hands...

Zhang Xingwang watched the two men turn around quickly and chase after the main force. After thinking for a while, he swung his arm and threw a wooden basin over. Anyway, he had prepared a lot of these things, and they meant well after all. Xiao Zhang also said that as long as there were no strong winds and waves, the wooden basin was the most reliable thing.

The man who had been silent swam over, grabbed the wooden basin, and yelled "Thank you" to Zhang Xingwang. The excitement in his voice could not be concealed, and then he quickly chased after the large group.

The sky became completely dark and the moon suddenly disappeared. The sea was as calm as a precursor to a storm. The people in front were no longer visible. Zhang Xingwang leaned on the wooden basin and sighed, thinking there was no way he could sit in it.

The wooden basin was not leaking, but the feeling of shaking was indescribable. He had just stayed there for a while, and not to mention the speed of moving forward, he actually found that he was a little dizzy. This was ridiculous.

Half an hour later, Zhang Xingwang changed into dry clothes on the boat and breathed a sigh of relief looking at the calm sea. The small boat in the park was indeed unreliable. Although it still shook violently, it was much better than the wooden basin.

After eating something, Zhang Xingwang picked up the oars and started rowing. Seeing that the weather was not very good, Zhang Xingwang had a bad feeling.

More importantly, it was pitch dark with no reference points. He didn’t even know if he was swimming in a straight line. He had to move forward quickly before he lost his way. Otherwise, if the wind and waves got strong, he would be doomed. If he went back in a big circle, he would not be able to afford the embarrassment...

The night was getting darker and the wind started to blow on the sea. The weather here changed very quickly. As time went by, the wind and waves became stronger and stronger. What was worse was the headwind. Zhang Xingwang dared not delay for a moment and only rested twice. He still hadn't seen the shadow of the coastline.

The strong wind was slowly mixed with rain, and soon Zhang Xingwang's clothes were soaked. He gasped, feeling his arms aching. It felt like every cell was protesting to him, telling him that they had reached their limit.

He stopped paddling and looked at the watch under the flashlight. He had been rowing for nearly three hours. It was pitch dark and he could not see anything. He was gradually losing his sense of direction. Now he could only move forward relying on his intuition.

Shaking his sore arms, Zhang Xingwang habitually shone the flashlight forward. The corners of his mouth began to rise unconsciously, and he laughed uncontrollably.

The coastline ahead was vaguely visible in the light and looked to be only a few dozen meters wide. Zhang Xingwang's heart finally settled down and he felt like a deflated ball.

There was a hint of joy of surviving a disaster in his laughter. After preparing for so long, tonight's operation almost failed. If the storm had come earlier, he would not only postpone the plan, but also back down and consider the possibility of climbing the mountain.

After confirming once again that they had arrived at the destination, Zhang Xingwang calmed down, rested for a while, and then continued to move towards the coast.

With a target in mind, he felt that the boat was moving much faster and the numbness in his arms gradually disappeared. As he got closer and closer to the shore, Zhang Xingwang put away the flashlight and the boat, and swam to the shore in one go while holding the wooden basin.

Looking at the deserted beach and the hills not far away, Zhang Xingwang decided to rest here for a while. He took advantage of the terrain near the hillside and dug a hole that could shelter him from the rain. He planned to wait here until the rain stopped before setting off again and spending the night there.

The rain gradually stopped. Zhang Xingwang changed into dry clothes and took out the hot water and food he had prepared. While having a full meal, he began to have random thoughts unconsciously.

Looking at the coast hit by waves not far away, I felt that the group of people were in great danger. They were well prepared, but unfortunately they were defeated by a sudden rain.

Until dawn, there was still no one on the lonely beach. Zhang Xingwang walked along the path and headed into the distance. After walking about five or six kilometers, he saw a village.

Zhang Xingwang thought about it and did not rush over. Instead, he planned to find someone who was alone to find out the situation first.

Zhang Xingwang, who was originally planning to strategically enter the mountains, found a sign. After hesitating for a moment, he was lured into the village by the words "hometown association".

After thinking about his own fighting ability, Zhang Xingwang knocked on the door. There was a lot of noise inside. After a while, an old lady poked her head out. After looking at him for a few times, she asked:

"Swimming?"

Zhang Xingwang felt a little strange when he saw the old lady heaving a sigh of relief. In order to avoid exposing his accent and attracting the attention of the village police, he decided to go in first. He pointed to the sign at the door and smiled shyly.

The old lady seemed to be used to it, and her attitude was not very enthusiastic. She just stepped aside to signal him to come in, quickly closed the door, and then shouted into the house:

"It's okay, you swam here."

"I was so scared. I finally got here..."
