Chapter 20: Closer

I'm really worried about Ling Han and Liu Yue, and I don't know if they can withstand it if we don't have it this night.

We woke up early the next day, and we had to hurry up and get back today.

Rumeng's state is also much better, at least she doesn't walk wakily anymore.

But the more anxious we were, the more we couldn't get up, and it was only at six o'clock in the afternoon that we got two machetes and daggers on both sides.

This kind of equipment is obviously not enough, and if it weren't for the fact that I had to dive and travel, I was trying to take the equipment back and get it slowly.

But we only have this one chance, because the fishing dream finds that the water line is rising, and after the high tide is over, everything in front of us will soon cease to exist, and even the cruise ship will be overturned by the sea, or even dragged into the sea.

The only consolation is that Rumeng has caught a fish, and it is not small, but the cooking process can only be omitted, and the dagger made by John is also sharp, and the taste of the sashimi is not bad.

We didn't sleep long that night, the water level was getting higher and higher, we were working harder, and the water and food we brought were about the same.

In the end, John directly abandoned the process of fine grinding, and roughly polished the prototype of the weapon and began to pack.

Five machetes and eight daggers, half of which are finished, and the rest still need to be sharpened, but for now we will be able to use them.

John refurbished the rusty axe as well, and brought a hammer and a saw.

Considering Rumeng's physical condition, we didn't let her carry the backpack, but fortunately, we could barely bear the weight in this bag.

But now the problem is to get into the water, carrying this bag of things into the water will definitely drown, and the weight is so large, we must set off early, otherwise we will not be able to rush back.

I looked anxiously at my watch, and it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

"You wait here, I'll go out and see what's going on. I said to the people.

After saying that, I went directly into the water lightly, swam towards the exit, and then the huge hull used as cover, but the people on the shore could not see me, but when I saw someone on the shore, my heart sank to the bottom of the sea.

We have to swim at least a hundred meters forward, so that the boulder can block the view of these people, and we will definitely not be able to return to the current weight in two hours, and Rumeng's current body will definitely not be able to walk fast.

It won't be too late if I don't leave, but what to do with the contents of the bag makes it difficult for me.

I went back the way I came, and everyone was watching eagerly before the breach, and as soon as I appeared, they pulled me up.

After telling everyone about the situation outside, it's good that Rumeng can swim, otherwise it would be really troublesome.

"I'm worried about what's in my bag right now, and we're definitely not going to be able to swim on my back. I said.

"Can you tie it up with a rope, the water outside shouldn't be deep, and we'll drag it along as we swim. Rumeng said.

"That's a good idea, I didn't think of it. I said.

Just do it, Rumeng explained to the two of them, I searched for ropes in the room, and I couldn't bear the ropes we brought, which was reserved to save my life.

Three sections of rope were ready, and another half an hour passed.

I was the first to go into the water, then Rumeng, then John and Paul.

Fortunately, there is nothing on the bottom of the sea in this vicinity, and with the buoyancy of the water, each person can move forward with a bag in tow.

"You go to the big rock in front of you first, you can dive if you can, you can't hold it back and then breathe. I said to Rumeng.

The three of them managed to reach the big rock, but things didn't go as smoothly as we thought.

Because there is a coconut grove further on, and we have to pass through the coconut grove to go back to the cave, but now there are many people standing in the coconut grove, and they are thinking about the last few coconuts.

It was still Ma Gongzi and Liu Tian who were talking, because I saw the gun in Ma Gongzi's hand and the axe in Liu Tian's hand.

I anxiously kept looking at my watch, the minutes were ticking, and the journey back to the cave would take at least two hours, but now we were carrying so many things, and there was a dreamy one that was a little unsteady on our feet.

This time is at least doubled, and now it is almost four o'clock, and it will be dark around eight o'clock, and these people in front of them have turned around and returned to the cruise ship, but should we soak in this sea all night?

Let's not talk about whether there are sharks in this sea, and the body can't stand it after soaking all night, and I can't eat and sleep well in the past two days.

Fortunately, the people on the shore argued for a while, and in the end they did not come up with a result, and the group broke up unhappily, some went into the woods, and some returned to the cruise ship.

"Let's go. "I have no choice but to give it a go.

The four of us slowly swam to the shore and pulled up the bag, which was much heavier and covered the shore with the bag on our backs, and the footprints on the beach became a little deeper.

The three of them, the bulky one, and the frail one, walked towards the woods after eating.

As soon as I walked through the coconut grove, I heard someone talking in front of me, and I instinctively grabbed a rock on the ground, as did John and Paul.

To my surprise, Rumeng also learned that we grabbed a stone and held it in our hands.

We walked slowly forward, and now we didn't dare to stay any longer, and the sound of talking was getting closer and closer, and we saw four people gathered under a big tree, three men and one woman, discussing something.

I wanted to take a detour, but I was worried about getting lost, so I threw a stone into the distance.

"Who?" exclaimed the crowd under the tree.

"Let's go, don't stay here. One said.

The four of them then left and ran out of the woods, and afterwards I regretted that the stone had not been thrown directly in their faces.

After a little more walking, we finally found the mark we had left behind, and along the path we picked up a little bit of difficulty.

The next thing that happened was that we took two breaks in the middle of the trip, and the things on our backs were too heavy, and Rumeng really hadn't recovered yet.

"Are you alright?" I asked.

"I'm fine, I can. Rumeng said.

"You haven't recovered yet, don't be reckless. I said.

"I can, and besides, now is not the time for me to be weak, and if I don't get back before dark, I know the consequences. Rumeng said.

"Let's go, then. Enough times. I stood up and said.

John and Paul had no energy to laugh at my pronunciation, they were both exhausted, and I had mixed feelings on the way, and if our cave had fallen, we would surely die on this trip.

I even began to make up the picture of the murder of the fourth daughter, thinking about it and almost going the wrong way, but fortunately, John found out in time.

"What's wrong with you, are you too tired?" asked Rumeng with concern.

"It's okay, it's just a distraction. I said with a wry smile.

"You're worried about the two girls you're with, aren't you?" asked Rumeng.

I was slightly stunned, and then asked, "How do you know they're with me?"

"You're a good person, and you're definitely not going to abandon everyone. Rumeng said.

It turned out that she sent me a good person card, and everyone she refers to must also include herself, right?

But now is not the time to worry about this, I only worry about whether I can get there before dark, whether the cave is still intact, and whether everyone is still alive.

The longer I walked, the heavier I felt on my back, not only me, but Paul and John also seemed to be struggling, Rumeng's face was already pale, and I knew that I couldn't rest now.

"I can. Rumeng said.

"Your face is so bad, if you pass out and we can't carry you now, let's take a rest. I said.

John and Paul were also sweating profusely, especially John, who had the heaviest stuff in his backpack.

The four of them drank the water that was left in the glass, and when the sky began to darken, we had to set off again.

My feet were as heavy as lead, and I picked up a wooden stick on the ground to use as a crutch, and it was only slightly better with some support, but I hated myself for not thinking of this method earlier.

The three of them did the same, so they barely maintained their speed, and after walking for a long time, they were finally able to see the cliff, and several people rushed forward with all their strength.

It was already completely dark, and we could even hear the roars of monsters in the woods, but we were running out of stamina and couldn't move faster.

The cliff was right in front of me, and I could even see the fire.

"Great, they're fine. ”

"Wei Rui cares, they are OK. I said to the three of them.

Paul and John also smiled and nodded at me frequently, only Rumeng did not speak or say anything, but now I don't care about her feelings.

For I could already hear the sound of the woods not far away, and I was afraid that the monster had already chased after us.
