He was injured and lay in bed for three days to rest, during which he was mainly cared for by Pastor Kaporani.

Don't look at Pastor Kaporeni's appearance is a little old, his strength is very strong, every time he takes Lin Xiaobao out to the toilet, he can easily carry him.

As the princess of the volcanic island, Delia often comes to visit the door.

Her English skills are very limited, she doesn't communicate with Lin Xiaobao much, and she gets nervous easily.

On weekdays, Delia is not like this, she has a high status on the volcanic island, she is very aggressive, she does whatever she wants, she loves to laugh and be sunny, and it is easy to make people feel good.

Pastor Kaporeni's English is okay.

Staying in his thatched hut for three or four days was enough for Lin Xiaobao to understand his situation and the island, and he was relieved to know that he was only a little more than a hundred nautical miles away from Honolulu and could always leave if he wanted to find a way.

His parents died one after another at an early age, and he only had a few distant relatives who didn't want to take care of him, and he was single and had no wife or children, so he was not in a hurry to contact anyone to report safety, and rested on the volcanic island to recuperate.

In recent days, the weather has been so hot that it is difficult to sleep at night, so I can only fan the wind with a natural fan made of palm leaves.

When I found that several small wounds on my lips had scabbed and fallen off, and the wounds on my feet were fine, I finally couldn't stand the smell of sweat and offered to find a place to take a bath.

Not far from the village there is a waterhole with a small waterfall that flows down from a height of several meters.

Lin Xiaobao seems to be a star in the eyes of the island's residents, always attracting attention wherever he goes, and the priest Caporeni is talking to a stout middle-aged man in a strange language.

Lin Xiaobao knew a little about their language, and guessed that it should be Malayo-Polynesian, which belongs to the Austronesian language family, and met several Tahitians during his voyage with the ship last year, and the tone of his speech was a bit similar to what he heard on the island, as for whether it was the same or not, he did not know.

The language barrier limited conversation, and when he woke up, Lin Xiaobao only spoke to Caporeni, who claimed to be a priest, and the so-called chief's daughter, Delia.

The people and customs of the volcanic island made him feel extremely strange, and if it weren't for the fact that he could see some modern objects, such as the logo of the International Red Cross and the anti-inflammatory drugs produced just last year, he would even wonder if he had arrived hundreds of years ago. Having heard of some primitive tribes around the world, such as in the African savannah, for example, in the Amazon rainforest, Lin Xiaobao did not expect that he could actually come into contact with one of them and be rescued by them.

At first, I was a little wary, but in the past few days, I have heard a lot of introductions, and I have seen the stable and peaceful life of the locals, so I can deal with it very calmly.

At this moment, I soaked in comfortable and cool water, used some kind of plant like a loofah, scrubbed everywhere on my body, did not change clothes, and did not want to wear a linen cloth like a crotch cloth, so I could only sneak in the water to wash it clean, and continue to wear it wet before going ashore.

There is not so much attention to the island, as long as you don't run around, no one will care about these, kill a mosquito casually, Lin Xiaobao told the old priest: "I've washed it, I've been bothering you for the past few days, I'm really sorry, now I'm almost recovered, if I can arrange someone to send me to Honolulu Island, I'm willing to pay some compensation...... After I get my passport and get my bank card again. ”

Pastor Kaporene was not surprised, he smiled and said, "We don't have a boat here to go outside, and when someone comes to deliver supplies, you can go back with their ship when the time comes." ”

Lin Xiaobao had seen those medicines, and subconsciously thought that it was more convenient to navigate, so he said: "Thank you so much, but how long will it take, a week, half a month?"

"I only came here about two months ago, and in my previous experience, once a year, occasionally a year and a half, two years. ”

Such a simple math problem.

Lin Xiaobao found that he might have to wait for ten months, so he was stunned on the spot, and said hurriedly: "This is too long, no, no, no, or when I go ashore and sell my watch, I will buy you some soap, food, or clothes, etc.?" You just need to find a fisherman with a good sense of direction to spend two or three days." ”

Pastor Kaporeni seemed to have a draft for a long time, and without thinking about it, he shook his head decisively and replied: "It's hurricane season lately, and our boat will be capsized, do you want to be shipwrecked again? ”

After the old priest finished speaking, he told the sturdy middle-aged man in front of him in the local language, and the other party shook his head vigorously when he heard the words, as if it was completely impossible.

The plan couldn't catch up with the changes, Lin Xiaobao was even more dumbfounded, thinking that it would be difficult to make a raft by himself and row back by himself?

It had only been a few days since he came ashore, and that desperate day in the sea was enough for him to remember, and the thought of drifting alone on the sea by a small boat made his heart tremble.

He continued to ask the old priest, "Is it a year every time I come here?

"The outside says that we are cruel, brave, and cannibalistic, who will run to find death. ”

Priest Kaporeni asked rhetorically, and then couldn't help laughing: "And you caught a huge whale, you have already won the game on the day you came, this is the guidance of the gods, you should stay and become the new king, win our beautiful princess Delia." ”

It's too much information.

Invite yourself to be a chieftain, and marry a princess?

Lin Xiaobao was completely dumbfounded, wondering what this was, a fairy tale?

He knew that he was carried ashore by a whale, but it was just a coincidence, or that the humpback whale was smart enough to save people, and similar incidents happened to marine mammals such as beluga whales and dolphins.

I don't think that being a chief in this primitive tribe is a great joy for the ancestors, let alone taking Delia as a princess, but I also admit that the girl is different from the women she has come into contact with before, she can be said to be simple and innocent, and she can also be described as stupid with lack of knowledge.

Yesterday, Delia asked what was going on with the plane, and Lin Xiaobao explained that she couldn't understand it for a long time.

Later, he inadvertently said that he had been on a plane a few times, but this stupid girl was shocked, and there was a worship in her bright eyes, which made Lin Xiaobao embarrassed to mention that there were still people who had been to space by rocket, and even wanted to go to Mars with great ambitions.

Although the feeling of being noticed made Lin Xiaobao a little fluttery, but in the past few days without mobile phones, TVs, and air conditioners, he really can't adapt to it.

Therefore, after thinking about the organization of the language, he still took a deep breath and shook his head and said, "No, I still want to go back, but if you welcome me, I will come back to see you when I have time." ”

These answers were not expected by Pastor Kaporeni, and the good intentions were rejected without the slightest annoyance.

patted Lin Xiaobao's shoulder vigorously, the water on his body was not wiped clean, his voice was loud, and the old priest nodded and told: "I will help the villagers in his tribe to treat the disease first, and we will talk later, I believe there will be a way to solve the conflict......"

Lin Xiaobao occasionally felt that this old man's speech was confusing, not like a native of the volcanic island at his feet, but like he was talking to a white man, which had nothing to do with his appearance, and his thinking was very modern.

At this time, I didn't feel that there was a contradiction between each other, but subconsciously I always felt as if the other party had taken a fancy to me, and it seemed that I wanted to stay on the island.

A few days ago, through a conversation with Delia, I heard the news of the death of the previous chief, and I also knew that I was currently looking for a suitable chieftain candidate, and passed on the bloodline by having children with her, and the future chieftain candidates would still be selected from Delia's children, similar to those emperors in ancient times who chose princes.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiaobao couldn't help but think...... Could it be that a girl named Delia likes herself, and has greeted the old priest, ready to forcibly keep herself?

Thinking back to the days when the girl had appeared in front of her several times a day, it suddenly seemed like it was very likely.

In the outside world, Lin Xiaobao, who is only a little handsome, a little smarter, and has an ordinary family, thinks that he is still very popular and outstanding on this primitive island.

Thinking that he had guessed the truth, he couldn't help but sigh deeply, no way, it's not good if it's too good, it's annoying......

-------------------------------------

I don't have to worry about family life, so I have a slight headache because I can't leave the island, but I'm not too worried.

At least it's much better than the worst I could have imagined when I was drifting on the sea, and I was lucky to be able to step on the ground, have water to drink, and be able to breathe.

I had almost died once, and my thoughts suddenly became clear.

At this time, they walked to their village with the priest Caporeni and the strong man named Lihuwa, who seemed to be the village chief, who had been introduced by the old man.

Lin Xiaobao wears a pair of straw sandals on his feet, made of palm leaves by the old man's own hands, the color is emerald green, and the toughness is full, like two large rice dumplings.

He only wears a flat corner black inner inside, a worthless jade Buddha hanging around his neck, and a Panerai diving watch in his hand, a gift from the previous ship boss, the original price is more than 40,000 heads, and he is rewarded for finding a Ming Dynasty shipwreck that has been taken first by people according to sporadic information, and salvaging a few relatively complete sea fishing porcelain nearby.

This is also the reason why Lin Xiaobao just dared to say that he would send him to Honolulu, so he sold his watch in exchange for some supplies for them.

Following behind the two of them, his head was empty, and Delia's appearance appeared in his head several times in succession.

To be honest, if you leave it outside, with Lin Xiaobao's conditions, twenty-three years old, without the help of her parents, no house, no stable job, and not much savings, it is difficult to find a girl with her figure, I planned to earn a few years outside, and then buy a house and start a family to live a stable life.

Now that the pie has fallen in front of him, he has begun to have a headache and entanglement, after all, it is too far from the previous assumption, and the temptation is not big enough to make him give up his previous habits.

After about half an hour's walk, the village is located on the island, far from the sea.

Tropical fruit trees can be seen everywhere, and it seems that the inhabitants of the volcanic island have mastered the technology of transplanting and planting, and the papaya trees in nature do not grow in a straight line.

As soon as the mayor of Lihuwa arrived with them, a dark-skinned young man was anxiously worried, and when he saw the priest Kaporeni, he burst into tears and spoke something very quickly.

There are also villagers who have seen the wonders of whales going out to sea a few days ago, and they actually shouted Kula to worship Lin Xiaobao, their understanding is limited, if they know that the so-called god of fishermen is just an ordinary outsider, most of them will not be so exaggerated.

Speaking of outsiders, you can see how resistant they are from the fact that the volcanic island is still closed.

During the Hawaiian Kingdom in the 19th century, there were more than 100,000 indigenous people in the entire archipelago, and the population plummeted by more than half due to infectious diseases brought by outsiders, which really frightened the ancestors of the people on the volcanic island.

To this day, the rules that do not allow landing on the island still exist, the previous owner of the island, that is, Delia's father, had a tough attitude towards it, if it were not for the acquiescence of Pastor Kaporeni, it is estimated that Lin Xiaobao would probably be banished, with the primitive and traditional rules here, only the rules and no explicit regulations, if it is barbaric, it is really not a joke, there are more than one or two outsiders who died here in history.

Lin Xiaobao was embarrassed or embarrassed, even if they spoke, they couldn't understand it, so they had to continue to stand.

After hearing this, the old priest told him in English, "I just gave birth to a child today, and the child is sick, you wait for me here, and I will go in and see if I can save it." ”

"Okay, you get them up, it's not comfortable for me to do that. ”

Looking at Lin Xiaobao with deep eyes, the old priest smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said a few words to the villagers in the local language, but he didn't know what he said.

Pastor Kaporene went into the hut alone, not even by the head of Lihuwa, where it was customary for a woman to give birth to a child as a sign of uncleanness, and for a few days of the month, she could only sleep outside the house or on the floor.

In Lin Xiaobao's eyes, it is very unbelievable, but on the island it seems very normal, this is not the strangest to say, the African lip disc clan, the giant elephant clan, etc. are called weird, the volcanic island has at least had contact with the world before it was closed, and it is not so primitive that it doesn't know anything.

Not long after the old priest entered the house, he heard the cry of a child and a woman's voice from the grass hut, crying quite badly.

On the other hand, the villagers were all excited, although Lin Xiaobao couldn't understand it, he could also see from his expression that it was not sympathy, but anger and anger, which made him wonder slightly.

When Pastor Caporeni came out with a solemn expression holding a child, Lin Xiaobao suddenly realized when he saw the child, because the child's hair was actually white, and his body was also white, which looked strange.

The surrounding villagers retreated one after another, presumably because of the presence of the old priest, which gave them a little confidence, otherwise someone might have to run away.

The chief of Lihuwa, with an ugly expression, asked the old priest a serious question, while some people around him shouted with frenzied expressions, they could not accept what they did not understand, and naturally moved closer to their faith, thinking that the child was cursed by the devil.

Pastor Caporeni knew a few things out there, but he didn't know everything, such as this child, who he had never seen a newborn like this.

At this moment, he suddenly told Lin Xiaobao: "They said that they said that the devil's child should be thrown into the crater and burned with fire, what do you think?"

"What?!"

Lin Xiaobao looked at this little fat baby and said in shock: "It's just albinism, you actually want to throw it away?!
