Although the orchids had trained their strength since they were young, they had not eaten their fill for many days and their bodies were very weak. After being pushed so hard by Gu Xiangling, they still couldn't stand up straight. She immediately fell to the ground, her eyes red as she immediately hugged Gu Xiangling's calf.
Gu Xiangling's heart was set ablaze. She did not hesitate to give Gu Xianglin a fierce kick, causing her orchid to scream in pain as she fell to the ground. She covered her abdomen with both hands and moaned nonstop. Yin. Gu Xiangling ran, while Bei Mengmeng shouted, "Elder sister, run! If you get caught by them, you'll lose your life!"
When a person's potential erupted, they would have no end. Gu Xiangling dragged her lame leg and actually maintained a distance from the villagers. As she was running, she suddenly heard someone shout from behind him, "Damned woman, don't run! There's no road ahead!"
Gu Xiangling was startled and immediately halted her steps. Sure enough, there was no path in front of her and the cliff was a hundred thousand feet high. She could see the splashes of the sea against the cliff.
Panicking, he actually ran to the edge of death. Gu Xiangling turned around and saw Yang Shi approaching her step by step, his eyes bloodshot and his entire body reeking of alcohol.
"You … Don't come near me. " Due to her fear, her body couldn't help but tremble.
Yang Shi ignored her warning and continued to approach his step by step. The villagers behind him were discussing:
"Truly shameless. Run on the day of the wedding. "She's not a native girl after all, she doesn't follow the rules."
"Yo, I thought she was a proper girl." I didn't expect it to be even dirtier than that orchid. "
"How much money did Old Yang's family spend to save her? I don't even know how much they spent."
"This kind of woman deserves to be soaked in a pig cage."
Seeing that Yang Shi was only a few steps away from him, he thought about the result of being caught. Gu Xiangling took a deep breath and leaped off the cliff.
She heard the villagers' cries of surprise and Yang Shi's furious curses.
All of these were already related to her.
The clear and translucent blue sky quickly disappeared into the distance. The only sound that could be heard was the whistling of the wind beside his ears. Gu Xiangling smiled faintly and said in a deep voice, "Mingjian, in the next life, I'll be your wife again."
Gu Xiangling's body fell deeply into the sea, causing a large splash. She subconsciously moved her hands in the water, struggling a few times before actually coming out.
"Big sister, don't show your face. Hold your breath and swim in the water." Bei Mengmeng reminded him by his ear. Elder sister, don't worry. I will do my best to save you. "
Gu Xiangling dived into the water as instructed. She, who had never dived into the water before, was able to swim as naturally as the clouds and water. After swimming for more than ten minutes, Bei Mengmeng called for her to surface.
"Elder sister, I'm sorry, I can't help you anymore." Bei Mengmeng's voice was filled with infinite weakness, "Elder sister, believe in yourself. You will live. "Think of big brother, think of big brother." Bei Mengmeng repeated the last two words to encourage Gu Xiangling.
Gu Xiangling clenched her teeth and paddled as hard as she could. Within a few minutes, she was completely exhausted, and a lot of water had already been poured into her mouth. His head felt swollen and painful, as if it was about to explode.
Bei Mengmeng suddenly said, "Sister, quick, look, there's a wooden board." Gu Xiangling searched the surface of the sea with all her might, and sure enough, there was a large wooden board floating on the surface. With the last of her strength, she swam over and landed on the plank, barely big enough to hold her.
After resting on the wooden board for a few minutes, Gu Xiangling recovered some strength. Only then did she realize that she was floating on the boundless sea. There was nothing around him but water. It was late afternoon, and the sun was hot and strong.
No fresh water, no food, how long can you last on the sea? Even if the sea was calm and still, it wouldn't last for more than a few days. Gu Xiangling truly felt that she had not planned her escape. She was simply courting death.
The sun was like a huge stove, mercilessly roasting Gu Xiangling's body. She quickly dried her clothes that were above the surface of the water and brought moisture to her body.
Gu Xiangling felt as if her mouth was on fire, and her lips were already dry and aching. There was a thin layer of salt on her hair and face. If she continued to drift like this, without protection from the sun or water, she would die very soon.
The sea water flickered with a seductive, cold light. As Gu Xiangling looked at the rising and falling sea water, she felt even more thirsty. She carefully held up the seawater and couldn't wait to put the cool feeling into her mouth.
Bei Mengmeng was so scared that she shouted, "Elder sister, don't, don't drink seawater. The seawater was not drinkable! "I can't drink it!" With that, she forcefully pulled Gu Xiangling's hand away.
Gu Xiangling licked her dry lips as she felt dizzy. She wanted to stretch out her limbs and lie down on the wooden board to sleep. Bei Mengmeng rolled her sparkling eyes and said, "Sis, hang on a little longer. I'll go find you some water."
"Sigh …" Gu Xiangling wanted to tell him not to go, but because his body was too weak, he could only say one word. A few minutes later, Bei Mengmeng returned. She was holding a large plastic bottle. Inside the bottle, there was surprisingly half a bottle of crystal clear liquid.
That was … In the water, Gu Xiangling was so excited that she almost cheered. Bei Mengmeng handed the bottle to her and said guiltily, "Sister, Bei Mengmeng's sense of direction is too poor. She doesn't dare to run too far, only finding this bottle of water."
This bottle of water was obviously garbage thrown out by the tourists on the boat. Who knew how long it had been floating on the sea. The plastic on the bottle had turned white. The original color and handwriting could not be seen. Gu Xiangling couldn't care so much. Surviving was more important. She unscrewed the cap and took a few small sips to ease the thirst in her mouth.
"Then give the bottle to Bei Mengmeng." Mengmeng, drink a little too. You have to live with your sister. "
Bei Mengmeng had only drunk a little bit of water. She did not know when she would be saved, nor did she know if she would be able to find the next bottle of water. She tried to use the tiny amount of life-saving resources she had left behind to save her money.
Fortunately, soon after, they found a bag of unopened bread and a few bottles of drinks on the surface of the sea. He was barely able to calm his rumbling stomach. Gu Xiangling thanked the owner of these dishes several hundred times in her heart, hoping that she would be able to find more.
After drifting for who knows how long, Gu Xiangling felt weak and tired from the lack of water. After being exposed to the sun for a long time, his skin had already peeled off. With the sea breeze blowing on his skin, the pain was even more excruciating.
The sun finally slowly sank below the surface of the sea. The beautiful sunset made the seawater red and dazzling. The seabirds flapped their wings as they flew towards their nest. This scene was also a magnificent and enchanting painting. However, Gu Xiangling wasn't in the mood to appreciate this. She was worried about something else.
The temperature would drop a lot at night. She didn't have any clothes to resist the cold, so she didn't know if she could survive the night. Bei Mengmeng closed her eyes and muttered some incantations, as if she was trying to sense something.
Gu Xiangling gazed into the distance, hoping to see the ship. Unfortunately, other than the seawater, she could not see anything else. The sun was only half golden. Then it would be night, and the danger of the night floating alone on the sea was unimaginable.
