Chapter 179: A Contest of One Man
After the foraging team leaves, Sophie and Ah Xiang lean together and take a nap.
Sophie stared, opened her door a few times and didn't see anyone come back, she became more and more panicked, the wind and rain, the road was treacherous, and she didn't know if there would be wild beasts on this desert island. She forced herself to close her eyes again, telling herself to be calm and calm, but the wind was screaming all around, the rain was roaring, and her brain was shouting together.
"They're back!" shouted Uncle Dagui.
Sophie jerked up, and her pupils that had just lit up dimmed.
Ah Xiang looked at the person with one eye, and couldn't help puffing out her mouth in disappointment.
It was the black bear and Ah Fei who came back together.
Sophie regained her thoughts and asked, "Aren't Ba Shao and Gao Minghua with you?"
They walked slowly, and they couldn't go far, and the black bear told them to look for them in the nearest place. Ah Fei threw the bag on the stone.
"What about the others?" Ah Xiang took the lead and asked Sophie what she wanted to ask first.
"The other teams went in separate directions and didn't meet. The black bear climbed the boulder and turned around to pull Ah Fei.
Sophie stood by the stone and looked around, the trees were dense, and she couldn't see far under the rain curtain.
She stood on tiptoe and looked at every minute, and finally saw two figures after scanning countless times, and she exclaimed in surprise: "There are people over there!"
Ba Shao and Gao Minghua stumbled and walked from the forest.
Sophie's shoulders collapsed, her eyes drooped in frustration, and none of the people she cared about had returned.
Xiao Xu pointed to the fire with his chin: "Sit down and keep warm." ”
The black bear and Ah Fei didn't respond, and they were obviously tired enough to choke at the "snap" stall.
The eldest noble brother walked and pulled Gao Minghua and Ba Shao up.
On the contrary, Gao Minghua was fierce and fierce, and as soon as he stood still, he couldn't wait to open his backpack, and a bunch of red dates rolled out.
He picked up a few and asked Xiao Xu, "Can you eat this?"
Xiao Xu was checking Ah Fei's bag, and he didn't have time to pay attention to it: "Put it aside and I'll see it later." ”
"Let's take a look at this first. Ba Shao also asked nervously.
Xiao Xu glanced at it: "You can eat it." ”
"Really?" said Ba Shao's voice a few degrees higher.
Gao Minghua secretly pulled his sleeve: "It's good to eat it! Hehe! It's finally not in vain, hey!"
"It's starting to get dark, why haven't they come back yet?"
"It's ten o'clock at five! What should I do? Didn't you say I'll be back in an hour?" Ah Xiang looked at her watch and stomped her foot in a hurry.
"It's hard to walk and it's not surprising that there are delays. Black Bear said.
"The direction we went to, there was no wild fruit to return early. Ah Fei also said.
The more Ah Xiang listened, the more nervous she became, and she said like a cannon: "What if it's dark, they don't have lighting, and they don't..."
Sophie bit her lip and held back her worries to keep herself from adding to the mess.
The black bear and the eight young people didn't pick up much fruit to eat, just two or three catties, Xiao Xu untied the water bottle and washed it with rainwater, and put the fruit together.
"I hope the others will gain more!" Xiao Xu frowned.
"Peng Jie is back!" Ah Xiang jumped up.
Peng Jieyang smiled and waved.
Jiang Yang turned his back and showed off his swollen backpack.
"Looks like a good harvest!" said Uncle Dagui.
Fu Shubao and Su Lesheng helped each other, walking behind with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
Sophie's heart pounded, and she shouted at the top of her voice, "Are you alright?"
Su Lesheng shook his head, Fu Shubao grinned his signature smile, but his eyes did not fall on him, Sophie closed her eyes and suppressed the emotions that she shouldn't have.
Jiang Yang's people harvested a lot, picking a large pile of wild fruits, enough for dinner for sixteen people, among which Jiang Yang's backpack was the largest and fullest.
Sophie helped Su Lesheng sit by the fire: "Sit down and rest!"
Su Lesheng pounded his sore calves: "I usually exercise too little, and my feet don't seem to be my own." ”
"It's an exaggeration, when I got leg cramps, it's not that my uncle can't walk back after carrying a while. Peng Jie reached out to warm himself from the fire.
"It's like a cross-country race, I really can't keep up. Su Lesheng admits defeat. He is a thousand-year-old house, and he is not at the same level as them.
"How can I have! Jiang Yang got on like Sun Wukong, climbed up and down, jumped up and down. Peng Jie took the water bottle handed by Ah Xiang and said angrily. He is a dancer in the forest, and he almost can't keep up with Jiang Yang.
"What Monkey King! I want to pick more fruit and come back for everyone to eat. Jiang Yang rehabilitated himself.
"The result was successful, the most fruits were picked, and it won! Peng Jie pointed at the big man.
Uncle Fu sat on the ground with his knees bent, his eyes staring at the raging firelight, but his ears were watching their conversation.
After going to the island, Jiang Yang has been fighting intentionally or unintentionally, like he is competing with him, if he was not sure before, after going out, Fu Shubao is very sure...
"Jiang Yang, there are a lot of dates on the right hand, don't climb up!" Uncle Fu shouted.
As if Jiang Yang didn't hear it, he tried his feet on the trunk of the tree and propped it up.
"Is he unable to hear or not to see?" Su Lesheng tilted his head in confusion.
"Don't worry about it, wait for me to go up and pick it!" Fu Shubao said as he took off his backpack.
Jiang Yang suddenly turned his head and shouted: "I'll finish picking the above, go back and pick again, no need to come up." ”
"I can hear it when I climb high, it's strange. Peng Jie muttered.
"Then I'll go to the tree next to me, and we'll pick them up below. Fu Shubao's chin pointed to the tree on the left.
Jiang Yang climbed to a high place to pick wild dates, and then retreated to the position below to pick them again.
"Catch it. Fu Shubao's voice sounded on the left.
Su Lesheng clapped his hands: "Drop it!"
Jiang Yang, also threw down the dates. Peng Jie answered under the tree.
Jiang Yang chose to be deaf again, and stuffed the dates into his backpack.
Seeing that Fu Shubao on the tree next to him was climbing higher and higher, he gritted his teeth and climbed up again.
The distance between the two trees was not far away, and Uncle Fu picked it and saw Jiang Yang climb up again.
"Huh, haven't you picked it here?" he raised his neck and looked at it, and the dates on Jiangyang's side seemed to have been lightened.
Jiang Yang choked: "I, I'll see if there is any leakage!"
"Oh. ”
The two landed at about the same time.
"How many times have you called to drop the fruit and not hear it?" asked Peng Jie.
Jiang Yang flipped his backpack and didn't answer Peng Jie. He stretched out his hand and said, "Let's go over there and have a look." ”
"Just now on the tree, I saw a lot of wild fruits in the tree in front of me. Fu Shubao pointed ahead.
"There's the same over there. Jiang Yang dropped the words and turned around and left.
The sound of flames crackling woke Fu Shubao up, he exhaled a mouthful of turbid air from his chest, and decided to find a chance to talk to Jiang Yang as soon as possible, telling him what Sophie said and his own attitude.
"It's getting dark!, Tongtong, why haven't they come back?" Ah Fei said and stood by the stone and looked around.
"Almost!" said the black bear, walking to the edge of the stone and looking around the forest.
"What about Mai Shao?" Tongtong's sharp and piercing voice came from the sky like a thousand miles away.
Everyone was startled and looked up to find the source of the sound.
Tong Tong stood on the tree pole under the high forest, climbed the vine and jumped down.
"Female Tarzan!"
"Wow! ”
Tongtong's facial expression was dashing, her facial features were wrinkled, and her tone was anxious: "Mai Shao didn't come back?"
Everyone shook their heads blankly.
"Mai Shao is lost!"
"We can't find Mai Shao!"
The sound of Shuangshuang and Shan Dan's rapid roar sounded on the other end.
"Boom!" a blinding white light flashed, and deafening thunder poured down with heavy rain.
