Chapter 12: The Ostrich ???
When I opened my eyes in the morning, I thought that I had arrived in heaven, after all, people do not have such beautiful eyes, they must be fairies.
I looked at Luo Shijing in front of me and smiled bitterly, I didn't expect that we were all dead.
Luo Shijing seemed to sense that I was awake, because she clearly felt my strangeness in her lower body.
This Nizi got up and gave me another slap!
Luo Shijing looked at me indifferently: "Why, Miss Ben came out with you, and you still want to take advantage of me?"
I barely stood up: "Aren't we all going to heaven? Besides, this lonely man and widow, and no one sees it, come on, little baby~"
With that, I pretended to hug her.
Luo Shijing directly slapped me in the back again.
I gasped in pain and didn't dare to do anything else.
Luo Shijing couldn't help but be a little worried when she saw that it hurt me, and kept stroking my back and blowing cool air.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, I didn't want to hit your wound......" Luo Shijing said eagerly.
"It's okay, it's okay, let's not die, otherwise why am I in so much pain?" I said with my teeth grinning at Luo Shijing.
"Die, with Miss Ben here, can you die easily?Remember, I don't owe you anything, one life for another!" Luo Shijing said with a pout.
"Goo~Goo~Goo~" Luo Shijing's stomachs and I rang at the same time in this embarrassing scene.
Luo Shijing looked at me embarrassedly: "I was too impulsive last night, we ran out without anything to eat, alas, what can I do?"
"Don't worry, since I am ordered to protect you, I will naturally starve you to death, come with me!"
I got up with difficulty and walked out of the cabin with Luo Shijing, this cabin was really nothing, I didn't think I would leave at that time, I knew that I would leave something in the cabin.
I took Luo Shijing into the bushes, and we dug up some cold potatoes in the bushes, removed the rhizomes, and ate some raw, and finally had some strength.
I can see that although Luo Shijing has a hard mouth, she is very worried about me in her heart, otherwise she would not have put aside the crew with enough food and clothing and accompanied me out to explore.
I gritted my teeth and insisted, this woman has put life and death aside and come out with me, what reason do I have not to take care of her? I am the only man she can rely on at the moment!
Luo Shijing and I sat at the root of the tree to rest, calmly thinking about the current situation, both of us are injured, as long as we don't provoke the beast, we can completely protect ourselves.
And then there's the issue of food and fresh water.
I don't have the jars and plastic bags I used to have, so I can't make distilled water to drink. But we can follow the previous stream and find the source of the creek so that we can drink the water upstream.
In addition, there is no seafood on the beach at low tide, and I only found orange groves of fruits.
And the most important thing is that Luo Shijing and I need a place to shelter from the wind and rain, because this island has a tropical maritime climate, so there is no clear division of the four seasons, and I once clearly remembered that the average annual precipitation in the tropical climate is as high as 2500mm.
So once it rains, it's not good for me and Luo Shijing.
Today, in addition to looking for food, we must find a place to live, so that we can save our lives and seek food and drink again.
The climate and temperature here also make me a little nervous, after all, we were in the south of Bali when we were killed, and according to my assumption, we should be far away from the equator, why is the climate here more like the equatorial climate?
Could it be that we were affected by the Pacific currents and drifted to the southwest or southeast of Bali, or somewhere else......
I don't dare to think about it, maybe that's why the rescue team never came. But now that you're alive, don't expect any more of these things.
The man's physical strength is still easy to recover, I touched the wound last night, because the herbs were applied, there was no scarring, and it was still a pain in the heart.
Luo Shijing was not in a very good state, I helped her up and explained my thoughts to her, Luo Shijing nodded approvingly, and walked with me towards the source mountain range of the creek in my memory to see if I could find fresh water and a place to live.
I walked slowly for more than an hour, and unexpectedly I was in front of the source of the stream.
Just as the two of us were about to cross a tall and lush bush of grass at the bottom of the mountain, something gray suddenly burst out of the grass.
Luo Shijing hugged my arm directly in fright, not noticing that her plumpness was against my elbow.
I am also vigilantly looking at this thing in front of me, if it is another tiger, Luo Shijing and I will completely explain here today.
I took the Pu knife and picked it tentatively, the gray thing was also a flutter, it seemed that the size was not small, I damn, this can't be a wolf!!
I hurriedly put Luo Shijing aside and walked forward with a Pu knife.
"Be careful. Luo Shijing reminded me quietly.
"Hmm. I clenched the knife with a solemn face.
Suddenly, the gray thing rushed in front of me, stood still, and I, Nima, were stupid at the time, and looked at each other face to face with this thing.
Where is this wolf!
It's a ...... Ostrich???
No, ostriches are so small?
I still haven't let up, who knows if this thing will come up and peck me.
Luo Shijing breathed a sigh of relief and said to me: "It's okay, this thing doesn't bite, it's an emu!"
Emu???
"What's that?" I turned to look at Luo Shijing.
"The emu is a large bird of the family Emu of the Crane order, native to Australia, also known as the Australian ostrich. It is the largest bird after the ostrich. Usually eat leaves and wild fruits. Luo Shijing gave me a blank look, as if to say that I didn't understand this.
I scratched my head in embarrassment: "Is the meat of this thing edible?"
"Of course you can, there are many farms in Huaxia that also raise this kind of animal, and the meat quality is very good!" Luo Shijing said with a smile.
My saliva was pouring out, little one, it looks like you won't be able to run away tonight.
The emu looked a little silly, it felt like a roe deer, I looked at it, it tilted its head to look at me, and after I crouched, it also flickered its wings and was about to lie down.
Hey?
This guy is a little interesting, I took the Pu knife and stabbed it directly, this little thing dodged directly and flexibly, and ran to the tree in front of me to look at me, and was not in a hurry to leave.
My temper came up directly, this beast was completely teasing me, I carried the Pu knife and chased after me directly.
Like a farmer who catches chickens on a farm, I burrowed through the grass with a simple knife, and the emu was obviously more familiar with the terrain than I was, and it played me around.
I stopped and wiped my sweat, this thing is really hard to catch, I need to think of an idea.
Luo Shijing also looked at me helplessly, and she didn't have a good way to catch this thing.
It is said that curiosity kills cats, and I feel that this sentence is also useful to this emu.
That's a great idea, give it a try!
