บท 1804: Survival

Zhang Tie faintly heard rhythmic splatters. In the beginning, it was blurry like coming from the distance with a mist. Gradually, Zhang Tie's consciousness started to recover like sparkles in the dark. 

The rhythmic splatter didn't become clear until over 10 minutes later. 

As it became clearer and clearer, Zhang Tie finally identified that it was the sound of sea waves lapping against the sand beach. After that, Zhang Tie's senses recovered a bit. Not until then did he realize that he would slightly rise and fall as each sea wave passed by him. Additionally, he felt that he was lying on something which prevented him from sinking in water. 

At this moment, his hands also recovered senses. Zhang Tie felt it was smooth, hard and grained with a sense of texture under his hand. He was catching the thick rim of this object while lying on it.
