When Jiang Ruo arrived on the island, the sun was in full swing on the sea.

Stepping off the boat, her eyes tingled from the scorching sun, and she was in a trance.

It's a long journey.

On the night of the incident, several people from Shui Huo and his party entered a container with her, and someone outside the door helped lock it, and from time to time, the container was lifted up and slowly rose, and Jiang Ruo did not dare to move.

Shortly after loading onto the ship, the container was opened, and the ship honked its horn and sailed out of the dock.

She was placed in a crew's lounge, where food was brought to her at regular intervals, three meals and additional meals, and one meal was not left behind, but she was never allowed to leave the room.

In a cramped room, two beds, a window, and a lavatory about the size of a bathroom on an airplane, the limbs of the shower could not be completely stretched.

She counted in it for four days and nights.

Then, without waiting for the freighter to come to shore and stop on the sea, she was carried onto a speedboat, and she did not get off the boat, and she had not seen him since then.

The speedboat put them on a small freighter at sea, a supply ship that departed from a city port on the southern side of the land to the southern Chiliu Islands.

When the supply ship arrived at the dock of the main island of the Chiliu Islands, several transport ships carrying supplies to different small islands were waiting on the shore, and several other water and fire men were also waiting.

The two men met, and after the ship was loaded, she boarded one of them with the men.

After a few hours at sea, the transport ship came to rest more than 100 meters away, and was transported here by a small boat with enough capacity for a dozen people, while the transport ship had to go around to the other side of the island to land where they would unload their goods.

didn't let Jiang Ruo get off the boat from the other side of the island, probably because she didn't want other islanders to see her.

Along the way, Jiang Ruo has sat on different types of boats, and she has been glad countless times that she is not seasick.

……

Behind her, the small boat with a rusty blue roof made an accelerated "tuk-tuk" sound, and she turned to see that the boat was slowly moving away around the island.

There are many sandy beaches here, and after disembarking, you have to wade a few meters to shore in the ankle-high water.

Under the sun, the deep blue sea gradually became shallower from far to near, Jiang Ruo took off her shoes and stepped on the shallow water, she looked down, and the clear sea water at the bottom was like freezing, gently floating between them, refracting sparkling waves.

She had been at sea for several days since she left Donglin that night, and at this moment her feet touched the ground, especially when she saw this isolated island again, she still felt dizzy and unreal.

The tall man standing behind Jiang Ruo said "Hey", and Jiang Ruo glanced at him.

This man only appeared on the main island of Chiliu, and his name was Chen Shan.

Along the way, after Jiang Ruo's observation, he should be the head of this group of people, he is the master of everything, and the rest of the people are the only ones who look ahead.

Chen Shan touched the top of his head that had just grown stubble, stared at her and smiled inexplicably, "Reluctant to that ship?"

Jiang Ruo took his gaze off his face, his expression was cold, and he didn't answer.

Chen Shan gloated and said: "Don't move your mind, you can't walk, unless you have wings, you can shield the sea." Cooperate obediently, don't give us problems, it's good for me. ”

After getting on the boat, Jiang Ruo didn't say a word to them, Chen Shan didn't know if she had listened, so he pushed her shoulder and motioned her to move forward.

Jiang Ruo suddenly opened his mouth at this time, "Listen to the accent, are you from Guangdong Province?"

Chen Shan glanced at her with lowered eyes, and snorted coldly: "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask." ”

Jiang Ruo didn't listen, and asked to himself: "Is this the South China Sea, is it close to Guangdong Province, Lingnan Province, or Qiongnan Province?"

Chen Shan was impatient, and his two sword eyebrows frowned, "Hey, you can't understand the words, can you?"

After speaking, he glared at her angrily, "Hurry up, grinding and chirping, the girls are just annoying." ”

After speaking, he walked in the front with his feet raised, and under the I-shaped vest, half of the muscles and tattoos on his back were exposed, and the pattern of the shoulder blade was completely destroyed by the scar.

Jiang Ruo walked slowly to the shore while looking at his surroundings.

Just now on the sea, I saw this island from afar, the terrain is quite gentle, the middle is high and the periphery is low, there is a sandy beach around the island, and most of the island is covered by vegetation.

The crisp sound of birds can be faintly heard from the back of the island, and there is no wind at this time, and the palm trees stand quietly. Although the environment is good, it is obvious that this place is too remote, there is only one adobe house, and there are two dilapidated fishing boats parked on the beach on the right, and I don't know how long they have been abandoned.

The shore is a gentle slope, and a few rough steps of stone are connected to the adobe house, and the shelves outside the house hang tattered fishing nets and fishing utensils, as well as air-dried fish.

Jiang Ruo followed Chen Shan up the stairs, and when he got closer, he saw an old woman standing at the end of the steps, with an indifferent expression, wearing earth-colored floral short sleeves, and a shiny yellow and black complexion, she almost blended in with the wall of the house behind her.

Then, touching her eyes, Jiang Ruo felt a strong disobedience.

The woman's gaze was sharp, and her dark eyes were embedded in the weather-beaten, ravine-ridden face, which made her look particularly vibrant.

She glanced at Chen Shan, then at Jiang Ruo, frowned, and asked dissatisfiedly and incredulously, "Pregnant woman?"

She has a sharp voice, but she deliberately lowers her voice to speak, which seems a little ruthless.

Chen Shan pulled her back and said, "Aunt Chen, you can help watch for a few days, take care of her stay, just take care of her three meals a day, the materials are all sent by Brother Huo, Brother Huo said, you can mention any requirements." ”

Aunt Chen said calmly: "I don't know if it's a pregnant woman, if something happens to the whole woman, won't I have to carry a debt of conscience? ”

Chen Shan felt that it was particularly funny to say the words "debt of conscience" from her mouth, and after laughing, he said with a smile: "Gajiajia, Brother Huo said it, and everything depended." ”

Aunt Chen said again: "How many of them are?"

"Isn't there enough house for you here, you can just make a room or two for us to squeeze, we are also helping Brother Huo do things, there is no way." ”

Aunt Chen squinted at him: "Meaning, you also want to live in me and eat me?"

"The supplies are all sent by Brother Huo, so you can cook two more pots of food per meal. ”

Aunt Chen stared at him: "Add money." ”

Chen Shan: "Okay, okay, Brother Huo said, everything is easy to say." ”

Jiang Ruo heard the sentence that Chen Shan called Aunt Chen, and wondered in his heart, could it be that these two people have any relationship?

This Aunt Chen didn't give her a few glances from beginning to end, and after talking to Chen Shan, she led the people inside.

Walking inside, this adobe house is not small, the middle is the main house, and there are two rooms on both sides, surrounded by a courtyard on three sides.

Although the house is simple and the furnishings are simple, it is very neatly kept.

Jiang Ruo was led to the room on the right side of the main house, and after Aunt Chen opened the door, she didn't look at her and said, "Live in this room." ”

Then he turned around and went out to arrange a place for a few men in the courtyard.

One on the left is the kitchen and the other is the bathroom.

On the right side of the courtyard are the utility room and the guest room, several men can only sleep in the large bunk of the guest room, Aunt Chen asked them to choose two people to go to the utility room and sleep with wooden planks casually.

Jiang Ruo stood in the hall of the main house and watched, wondering in his heart that he didn't know what was the origin of this Aunt Chen, and he spoke unceremoniously, these men didn't dare to say a word, and they all looked obedient.

Three men left and went nowhere, so Mrs. Chen went to cook on the fire and asked the remaining few people to help her chop wood.

Jiang Ruo was tired of standing, so he found a low bamboo chair under the porch to sit on.

Although the ultraviolet rays are strong here, the temperature is actually 289 degrees, so as long as you stay in the shade, it is very comfortable.

Jiang Ruo sat there and thought, this is the territory of Aunt Chen and Chen Shan, it may be a little difficult to run, but is it possible to spread the news that she is here?

The boatman said just now that the other end of the island is a dock for loading and unloading, and only there can be docked.

Here are all fishermen, living on the sea, transporting seafood out, only then can they have economic resources, in order to buy materials to meet life, then the island's trade with the outside world can only rely on the transport ship she took when she came today, and the wharf, will it be a place where the islanders gather?

There will always be people who will have mobile phones, and not all islanders will be subordinates.

Jiang Ruo didn't know if this idea was too idealistic, maybe the real situation would be worse, maybe this was an isolated island, and everyone was isolated from the world.

Jiang Ruo was nervous all the way, and he was already exhausted, but there seemed to be a string in his head, as if it would break as soon as he fell asleep.

She was dizzy and was about to worry, when Chen Shan walked up to her and cast a large shadow.

Jiang Ruo didn't bother to look at him, and along the way, he called the earth and the earth to be ineffective, and then to this uninhabited backward and broken island, despair and anxiety were devouring her inch by inch.

Chen Shan wiped the fine sweat from his forehead: "Don't lose a face, our brothers are suffering here, and they are leisurely like an old woman here, what's not satisfied?"

"Satisfied?" Jiang Ruo squinted at him, "If it weren't for you, I should be on the way to yoga class now, and after class, I can stay in the heated room at night and eat hot pot at night, and take a bath with aromatherapy candles before going to bed, instead of sitting on a rotten chair under the earthen embryo room and watching them chop wood, I am afraid that I can't even find a bottle of Coke in this broken place, and I think I should be satisfied?"

Chen Shan scratched his head, he didn't know what kind of she was talking about, he didn't understand why pregnant women could still do yoga, why they had to eat hot pot in the heating room, and why they had to light candles in the bath.

He stared at her for two seconds, then reached for a walkie-talkie from his trouser pocket.

Jiang Ruo was stunned.

Chen Shan turned on the walkie-talkie and said, "Buy a bottle of Coke and come back." ”

After Jiang Ruo was silent, he said expressionlessly: "Don't be delicious, want Pepsi." ”

Chen Shan held down the walkie-talkie: "Don't be delicious, want Pepsi." ”

"Received, received. ”

Chen Shan glanced at her with disdain, and then added over there: "Buy some more ingredients and burn the hot pot tonight." ”

"Received, received. ”

Jiang Ruo: "......"

After a while, Aunt Chen made lunch, she didn't have enough ingredients at home, and it was too laborious to cook so many people's food, so she simply boiled a pot in a big pot.

When it was brought to the table, Jiang Ruo looked at the hodgepodge in the pot and had no appetite.

Aunt Chen glanced at Jiang Ruo, "Follow me." ”

When she arrived at the kitchen, Aunt Chen brought out a bowl of fish soup, and there was a dish of fried vegetables on the small dining table in the kitchen, and said to Jiang Ruo: "I haven't come back yet, I don't have any good things here, whether I eat or not, anyway, I won't give me food after the time, if something happens to me when I'm hungry, I'm not responsible." Also, let's talk about it first," she raised her chin towards Jiang Ruo's stomach, "take care of your own stomach, we are in this place, there is no serious doctor, only an old man who looks at a small cold, and he can't tolerate any eventuality, and he weighs it himself." ”
