Chapter 24: Human Footprints
Fang Ran woke up?
I was startled, sat up from the floor, and rushed straight to the bed.
Sure enough, Fang Ran, who had fallen into a coma, had already woken up, leaning on the bed, holding a bowl of wheat porridge, and eating it fragrantly.
When he saw me running over, a cloud appeared on his cold face, almost dripping blood.
"Yang Zhi, I've heard Ke'er describe what happened.
Thank you, if it weren't for you, I might be dead in the cave by now. ”
When he said these words, Fang Ran's expression was quite moved, and his pupils that were as cold as ice and snow seemed to melt and spring water rippled!
Obviously, yesterday's events were also a huge shock to her.
"It's okay, everyone is a team, don't abandon, don't give up, this is the soul of a team, isn't it?"
"Don't abandon, don't give up ......"
Hearing my words, Fang Ran muttered to himself, and said it several times in succession before he raised his head, and there were slight ripples on his cold cheeks.
"Yang Zhi, maybe you are the most indispensable captain of this team. ”
……
A moment later, Fang Ran had completely awakened, but his body was still a little weak.
I sat in front of the bed, planning for the future with her, and finally made a decision.
Be sure to stock up on wheat and fresh water.
Wheat and fresh water are the most important strategic resources, and only by grasping these can we survive on this desert island.
After breakfast, Zhang Jiayi and I walked to the jungle early, intending to collect wheat.
Lin Ke'er, Fang Ran stayed in the wooden house, and Lin Ke'er was responsible for taking care of Fang Ran.
Yesterday, when I was collecting wheat, I had already discovered that there seemed to be more than just wild wheat.
In the depths of the vines, there are still dense clusters, quite luxuriant.
And, thanks to the abundant sunlight, the wheat was ripe and just right for collection.
Along the way, I held the stone axe and carefully opened the way ahead, and Zhang Jiayi followed behind, sullen.
She is quite a lazy person, she just wants to sit back and enjoy her success, and does not like to come out to work.
I was about to turn my head to reprimand her when I noticed a few footprints on the muddy ground next to me.
These footprints are deep and shallow, and they are all over the depths of the vines.
The moment I saw these footprints again, my pupils suddenly contracted, and my heart was alarmed.
Human footprints!
These footprints turned out to be human footprints!
Could it be that on this desert island, we are not the only ones who live, but there are other human beings?
I was creepy, and my back was cold.
After a few years of working in the city, I am well aware of the evil of human nature.
In this world, there is darkness in addition to light, unfathomable darkness.
This desert island is too ethereal to be bound by moral laws.
If you encounter the owner of these footprints, although there is a probability of getting help, there is a greater probability of being attacked and controlled by these people.
After all, among the four, he was the only man, and the others were all women, and their combat effectiveness was weak.
Zhang Jiayi followed behind me, and when she saw me pause, she also walked over.
Seeing these footprints, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face.
"Footprints, it's great that there are other people on the desert island, does that mean we can find a way out?"
"I'm afraid not!"
I opened my mouth coldly, told Fang Cai's speculation, and told Zhang Jiayi that even if there were other people on the island, these people might not be able to grasp the clues.
Maybe the other party is also trapped on this desert island, and they are in a dilemma.
Hearing my words, Zhang Jiayi's face was full of disdain.
It was too timid to mock me, and I was frightened by the wild wolves on the island, and when I met my own kind, I was not surprised, but afraid.
He told me in a strange way that with the four of us, it would be impossible to get out of the island.
There is strength in numbers, and only by joining forces with others can we find clues to escape from the island.
Hearing her childish and childish words, my expression instantly turned cold, and I warned her not to make any extraneous branches.
This matter needs to be investigated slowly, and only when we find traces of those people and confirm that those people will not have ill will towards us, can we slowly get in touch.
With these words, I took the stone axe and walked straight to the wild wheat.
But Zhang Jiayi took advantage of my inattention and put a ring in her hand at those footprints as a reminder!
……
Soon we came to the place where the wild wheat was found, and we harvested all the ripe wheat and put it in our backpack, which was enough to fill the whole bag, and we were sure that we could no longer hold it, so we gave up.
After harvesting the wheat, we did not leave in a hurry, but started hunting nearby.
I have to say that there is a lot of prey on the desert island, and I held a stone axe and walked around the wheat a few times, and then I hit a few pheasants and hares.
The pheasants and hares are quite fat and tender, and they weigh more than a dozen pounds in their hands.
A hunt, a lot of harvest.
Holding these pheasants and hares, I couldn't help but smile a little on my face, and the haze of several days finally dissipated.
With these pheasants and hares, we will be able to feast on it tonight, or at least celebrate.
With wheat on our backs and prey on our backs, we planned to return where we were.
Along the way, I was silently thinking about those footprints.
Think about how you can get in touch with people you don't know in the future.
didn't notice at all, behind her, Zhang Jiayi had been staring at those marks.
Seeing that the ring he had deliberately left behind had disappeared without a trace, a smug smile appeared on his face.
……
After more than an hour, Zhang Jiayi and I returned to the wooden house smoothly, cleaned up the wheat and prey, walked to Fang Ran's bed, and told the story of the footprints found today.
Hearing what I said, Fang Ran's expression really became serious, his brows furrowed deeply, and he closed his eyes in contemplation.
Obviously, she also realized the seriousness of the matter,
Seeing the serious expressions of the two of us, Zhang Jiayi next to her was disdainful.
Laughing at us for being unfounded and too timid.
And told us that there is no need to deal with it deliberately, those people will take the initiative to come to the door, and at that time, they will be able to leave the island smoothly and return to the urban world.
Hearing Zhang Jiayi's words, Fang Ran suddenly opened his eyes, and his face suddenly turned cold.
"Zhang Jiayi, you are an adult, not a child, can you not have these daydreams?"
"This is a wilderness, a desert island with no moral constraints, all evil is likely to grow here, do you think those people will really be kind enough to help after they meet us?"
"Should...... I guess so......"
Zhang Jiayi also sensed that something was wrong, and replied tremblingly.
