Chapter 19: Complex Thoughts
"What the hell is going on?" I asked.
"When he wanted to exchange me for food and water, I didn't agree, so he threatened me in various ways, and even beat me, but then I was so hungry that I couldn't stand it, so I agreed..."
I didn't dare to ask, such a thing, I don't want to ask, exchange myself for food, it's really too ...
Fortunately, Rumeng didn't torture my curiosity, and she continued: "He said that the captain must have food and water, so he encouraged me to go to the captain..."
"You went?" I couldn't help but ask.
As soon as I finished asking, I wanted to give myself two mouths, I thought Rumeng would be angry, but I didn't expect her to nod, and then said: "Fortunately, the captain is not that kind of person, seeing that I am really pitiful, he also took out food and water for me, in fact, the captain has no food and water, and what he gave me is also what he saved." ”
"And then?" I asked.
"I didn't expect that Ma Gongzi and Liu Tian had lost their hearts, they had been following me, they rushed into the captain's room, robbed me of food and water, and even killed the captain and threw the captain's body into the sea. Rumeng said.
"Then why are you here?" I asked.
"I was completely frightened, I couldn't move at all, I watched the two of them rummage around the captain's room, Ma Gongzi found the captain's pistol, and when I saw him holding the gun, I instantly sobered up, and I hurried away, and then ran here, but after the door was closed, it couldn't be opened, and I didn't dare to call for help, so I was trapped here. Rumeng said.
I didn't expect that the murder and overselling had already happened, but we didn't know that what Rumeng said should be the day Ma Gongzi appeared in the coconut grove.
"So you're fishing to survive?" I asked.
Rumeng nodded and said, "The hook and line were given to me by the captain, and they were busy looking for something in the captain's room and didn't search me, but I only had a small half of bread in my pocket, and I only caught a small fish." ”
Speaking of which, it became clear, I took out the venison jerky from the waterproof bag and handed it to Rumeng, and also handed her my water.
"Eat, come with us then, I'm afraid this place won't last long. I said.
But Rumeng didn't reach out to take my things, just lowered her head and said, "I treated you like that, you don't need to help me, not to mention that I'm not clean anymore, I don't deserve you." ”
I didn't even think about what was going on in this girl's head, but she thought so first.
"Don't think about it, I'm not so grudgeful, you just want a better life so you chose Ma Gongzi, eat quickly, take care of your body and let's go together." I said.
Rumeng still didn't answer, raised her head and asked, "Do you still like me?"
It's all life and death, whether I like you or not, what does it have to do with whether you eat my stuff or not?
Seeing that I didn't speak, Rumeng continued: "I didn't mean that, I wanted to say that if you don't dislike me, I can repay you with myself..."
Speaking of the latter sentence, Rumeng's voice was already very small, I knew that this was a very difficult decision she made, but I am not the one who takes advantage of others.
"I'm not that kind of person, don't think about it so much, now you just want to live. I said and handed the thing forward again.
Rumeng hesitated for a moment, but still tremblingly stretched out his hands and took the food and water.
"Thank you, you're so nice, I'm sorry. Rumeng said.
She chewed on the venison jerky in small bites, tears sliding down her cheeks, in fact, I don't blame her, such a weak woman is nothing more than using her body as a weapon to survive.
I'm a big man who lives so hard in the face of power, let alone such a weak woman, and a good-looking woman.
But now, I don't think there's much hope of leaving this island, although I have to face monsters with teeth and claws, but fortunately I can still fight back.
Unlike in society, I don't even have a chance to fight back in the face of power.
I didn't say anything more to Rumeng, and I took the two of us and started looking for what we needed, but unfortunately there were all tools, no weapons, and a somewhat rusty axe came out.
Black John was babbling something, and I had to ask for help like a dream.
He said he could build it himself with steel. Rumeng said.
"How do you build it? Cutting, welding, grinding, we don't have any of these things. I said.
After the dream was translated, John spoke again.
"He said he could cut some suitable steel with oxygen welding, and that grinding wheel grinder, which he could convert to manual. Rumeng said.
"How manually?" I asked.
Rumeng exchanged a few words with John, and John smiled and said something.
"He said you can leave it alone, take care of it..."Rumeng said with a blush on her face.
"Take care of what?" I asked curiously.
"Take care of your girlfriend...," Rumeng whispered.
After the dream was finished, John smiled at me, I didn't explain it, I couldn't explain it if I wanted to, so I simply smiled back.
The rest was simple, I thought I was very hands-on, but I was a little embarrassed in front of Paul and John.
Everything in this room worked perfectly in their hands, and I had to do it.
John first cut a few pieces of steel that fit with oxygen welding, and I had to push the oxygen cylinder behind him.
The materials are ready, but if we take them away now, we will definitely not be able to process them outside, and it seems that we will have to stay here for a while, just so that Rumeng can recuperate.
Unfortunately, we only brought food and water for two days, and mine was wiped out by Rumeng.
Rumeng also seemed to see my concerns, and staggered towards me.
"You have a good rest and don't move around. I hurried up to her.
"Are you not bringing enough food and water?" asked Rumeng.
"yes, it's a little ill-conceived, just thinking about it and looking for a ready-made one. I said.
As soon as I finished speaking, Rumeng pulled out a hook and line wrapped around a small piece of wood from his trouser pocket.
"Yes, you can fish. I patted my head and said.
Actually, I also have these things, but this time I didn't think of them at all, and I only came out with food and water, and it seems that no matter where I go in the future, I still have to bring these survival tools.
"I can't help you for the time being, I'll be in charge of fishing. Rumeng said.
I couldn't bear to see her talk, but that's all there is to do for now, because we still have a lot of work to do.
"That's hard work for you. I said softly.
"It's not hard, it's good to be able to help. Rumeng said.
So saying, she tore off a small piece of donkey meat, then handed me back the rest of the food and water, walked to the gap and sat down, and began to prepare for fishing in earnest.
I hurried over to John and Paul to continue my work.
John really didn't show his face, and after a few hours, the electric grinder in front of him really made him tinker with a hand-cranked one, which was still a bit laborious to use, but it was better than grinding on a stone.
John used oxygen welding to cut the prepared steel to the right size, and even the rough prototype of the knife had come out, and the next step was plastic grinding.
The three of them took turns shaking the handle, not to mention that the efficiency of this grinder was still good, and it didn't take long for a dagger to take shape.
Then John warmed the dagger with oxygen welding, and then put it in a bucket on the side, which was translated as discarded engine oil and lubricating oil, and John did this to quench the dagger.
With my knowledge, these columns have successfully piqued my curiosity, and I have concentrated on learning every move of John.
Do you want Rumeng to translate it for me?
Eight hours had passed since the first dagger was introduced, but the preparatory work had taken up more than half of the time.
Fortunately, the waterproof electronic watch in my hand is quite good, it has not been eroded by the sea, it is 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and at this pace we should be able to leave here tomorrow.
We took a short break and continued to work, and were busy until eight o'clock in the evening, but fortunately our location was far from the living quarters of the cruise ship, and the door of this room was double-layered, waterproof and soundproof, and our movement here did not attract people.
However, I was still a little uneasy, so I found something against the deadbolt and pushed a cabinet in front of the door, so that it could not only block the way, but also block the view from the outside.
I didn't sleep well this night, it's not that the environment here is bad, I don't know how much safer this place is than our cave, it's just...
