7. Chapter VII
Around noon, the sun was high overhead, and the deeper you went to the island, the taller the trees became, and the dense foliage covered the overhead sun, making it look a little gloomy.
Wei Jin, if you don't take the initiative to talk to him, there is no special reason, and he will definitely not take the initiative to talk to you.
So along the way, Ye Zimeng followed the previous practice, casually pointing to what his lens was shooting, and asked what it was.
Then the other party will tell you everything he knows, and also consider the situation that she is too academic she doesn't understand, often pick and choose, and sometimes tell a wild history. For example, what a poignant love story is hidden behind the name of this flower.
It would have been inconceivable that such a taciturn person would tell you a wild history. What's even more incredible is that he uses that deep and magnetic voice to tell stories, which actually has a unique flavor.
The more Ye Zimeng thought about it, the more interesting she felt, the smile on her face never stopped, and sometimes she couldn't help but show a few words of laughter, such as at this time, just as she was happily recalling a little story he told a few minutes ago, Wei Jin in front of her suddenly stopped, turned around, and glanced at her indifferently.
She thought it was because she was laughing too presumptuously, so she coughed, coughing back the laughter that had surged up her throat, and slightly restrained the exaggerated curvature of her face.
Unexpectedly, the other party turned sideways in the next second, pointed to the front and said to her, "We may need to climb a tree." ”
She looked in the direction of his fingertips, and several large trees with thick waists in front of her huddled together, forming a wall that stopped the two of them from moving forward.
If you want to go further, you have to climb the branches of the big trees and then jump to the weeds on the other side.
Thankfully, the distance between the branches and the ground was not high, and she took a few steps forward and measured it with her body, which was as close as her chest.
"You crawl over first." Wei Jin in the back said.
She nodded, folded her trekking poles and hung them on her waist, grasped the vines wrapped around the tree with both hands, stepped on the hollow of the trunk with her right foot, and stepped on the thick branch with her left foot on the ground.
Suddenly, however, as if by magic, she remained motionless in this difficult maneuver.
She probably had an idea of what creatures were on the island before she came, and she was already mentally prepared to meet snakes.
That's right, of all animals, the one she fears most is snakes.
I don't know why, even when she was a child, she watched the animal world on TV and saw the picture of snakes, she would feel that her hairs stood up all over her body and her heart was chilling.
Just like at this moment, even if it is clear that the probability of facing the snake face to face is very high on a desert island, but at this time, she can only restrain herself from yelling, but the limbs of her body are completely frozen without obeying the call.
On the other side of the trunk, a brightly colored snake about five fingers thick was hovering over it, spitting long letters at her face in a safety suit.
In her eyes, the letter was about to touch her face.
Even if the snake couldn't bite the safety suit at all, and the venom couldn't penetrate it, the blood on her face still receded in a matter of seconds.
Wei Jin, who was opening her arms slightly below to prevent her from falling down, noticed something unusual, and moved a few steps cautiously, and also saw the colorful big fat snake.
Remembering the bloody word 'snake' written on her resume, the 'things to be feared' column, somehow, instead of driving away the snake first, he took the lead in reflecting his eyes on her lap.
Sure enough, the right leg that was stepping on the sunken trunk of the tree was already shaking.
Wei Jin suddenly felt a little like laughing, but he had never liked to write his feelings on his face, so his right hand holding the road knife wanted to slap forward to drive the snake away.
But before he could stretch out his hand, the motionless body suddenly fell straight towards him, and he could only take the lead in reaching out his hands to pick up people, so he fell into the bushes, and Ye Zimeng fell into his arms.
Such a large list of things happened in just a dozen seconds.
The two people moved a lot, and many animals in the bushes were frightened and fled from this place of right and wrong, but somehow, only the culprit remained in place, neither going far nor forward, and when the incident happened, he seemed to stretch out his long body with some curiosity, glanced at the two of them inexplicably, and took his long body back, and continued to spit out the letter happily.
Ye Zimeng fell into Wei Jin's arms with her back to her, her eyes didn't dare to leave the colorful figure for a moment, seeing this scene, she wanted to cry without tears, so she could only silently drill into the arms behind her.
When she was on top, even if her limbs were stiff, she thought about it a lot.
For example, if there is him below, then there is no need for her to stiffen on it, so she simply let go of her hands and smashed into his arms with peace of mind.
After all, tofu is there, don't eat it for nothing.
After thinking about it randomly, Ye Zimeng suddenly felt that his mentality was really good, and in the face of the snake he was most afraid of, he could not forget to eat other people's tofu! Thinking so, she silently leaned back into his arms again.
Wei Jin behind him stiffened for a moment, the person was in his arms, and there was the snake that the other party was most afraid of in front of him, he didn't push it, he could only hang his hands at his side, and explained to her, "Snakes don't cause us harm, so ......"
"I know." Her voice trembled a little, and she looked pitiful, "But I can't control myself, I'm afraid." ”
“…… Then you get up first, and I'll ...... it."
"My whole body is weak and I can't get up." Looking at the big fat snake who was still entertaining himself in place, Ye Zimeng's facial features were twisted into a ball, so the sky can be seen, she is really soft, and she is not lying at all!
Wei Jin was silent for a moment, then simply reached out and wrapped his hand around her waist, dragged her up when he stood up, and pulled her behind him after both of them were almost steady, and then let go of his hand.
Ye Zimeng's feet were still a little soft, but there was no problem standing firmly, so she quickly hid behind his left side, grabbed his left arm tightly with both hands, and carefully stuck her head out of the side, and then didn't make any other moves.
His left arm was grabbed tightly, and Wei Jin had no choice but to half-bend down and pick up the trekking pole that had fallen to the ground with his right hand, and threw it straight at the place where the snake was.
His strength was very strong, the trekking pole was menacing, colliding with the air and making a whirring sound, when the leaf and snake present did not react, its tip had already reached its destination, but the angle was precisely far away from the snake's body, and landed on the branch next to it, causing the leaves to fall one after another, frightening other insects on the tree to flee quickly.
And the big fat snake finally moved, but instead of running away in fright, it flew in the direction where the two of them were.
Seeing this scene, Ye Zimeng's mind went blank in an instant, and he let out a short exclamation without knowing it, reflexively let go of the hand holding his left arm, and instead hugged the waist of the person in front of him, buried his face deeply, and his body was still shaking slightly.
His safety suit was stained with grass seeds along the way, buried deep in, and the faint scent of grass with the smell of hormones on the man's body came to her nose, if it was usual, she would appreciate it. But at this moment, she has completely lost her mind in this regard.
Wei Jin, who hadn't been hugged around his waist like this for a long time, stiffened, and he was already stretched out in the air to grab the snake's right hand, but he missed the best opportunity, so the big fat snake wrapped around his right arm and bit it fiercely.
The snake's fangs failed to bite through the suit, and the venom inside dripped down the curve of the suit and gradually dried up.
It seemed to feel something unusual, and felt that the reaction of the bitten object was very different from the usual animals that were bitten by it, and it moved its head unwillingly, and wanted to continue biting in another place.
Wei Jin glanced at its colorful snake body expressionlessly, and the left hand hanging down on his side stretched out like lightning, directly stuck its three inches, and grabbed it in front of his eyes, and looked at it carefully.
The snake struggled frantically, but it was suppressed and could not move.
Its head was separated from Wei Jin's face by a few centimeters, and the long letter was almost touching his cheek, but it was only almost, no matter how long it stretched the letter, it couldn't change the fact that it couldn't go further. If the snake had an expression, it must be extremely angry right now.
He felt it struggle in his hand, and his brown pupils rippled with a slight smile.
He looked at the camera hanging on his chest, and by the way, he swept to Ye Zimeng's hand that was holding his waist and guiding his fingernails to turn white, and dispelled the idea of asking her to help catch the snake so that he could take a picture himself.
The thumb of his right hand gently rubbed the snake's delicate and slippery body for a while, and he took one last look at the colorful snake body, and then threw the snake out from a distance.
This breed of snake has not been seen in a long time.
But he didn't have a chance to leave a photo, he thought with some pity.
Of course, Ye Zimeng, who was trembling, couldn't understand his rather reluctant feelings, and after feeling his movements, he didn't dare to stick his head out, and asked cautiously: "Does it ...... Gone? ”
He reached out to look at the venom marks left by the fat snake on his right arm, and replied, "Let's go." ”
After a pause of three seconds, she dared to raise her head, looked around nervously, and after making sure that she did not find the figure of the snake, the heart hanging high returned to its original position, and she had already broken out in a cold sweat behind her back.
Wei Jin waited for a while, but he didn't wait for the other party to let go of the hand around his waist, looked at the dried venom, and pursed his lips, "Ye Zimeng, I need to take the contents of the bag and dispose of the venom." (So you can let go of your hand?) )
She paused, only to realize that she quickly let go of her hand, took a step back, and when she realized what he said, she asked a little nervously: "Did it bite you?" Are there any injuries?! ”
He shook his head, took out some of the peculiar tissues in his bag, and carefully wiped the venom off: "It can't bite. ”
Ye Zimeng thought about it, and knew that she was frightened by the snake, and she was a little delirious, so she simply closed her mouth, wiped the pimples on her two arms vigorously, and said in a half-loud voice, "I rub it, it's much more exciting than falling into the sea!" ”
After he cleaned up, he took a rare answer: "There are already many snakes on the island, since you are afraid of coming?" ”
She jumped slightly: "I just know how many snakes come, how exciting!" I don't even see a snake shadow in the metropolis. ”
It's so comfortable to feel empty and weak limbs after this kind of shock.
Ye Zimeng silently added in her heart.
After all, that's what she has to do, she drills wherever it's stimulating, and the more she is afraid of something, the more she has to deliberately see it.
However, she felt the change in her body, and the expression on her face instantly became a little strange.
Wei Jin put her things away, didn't take her words, didn't notice her strangeness, and said to her, "Let's keep walking." ”
Ye Zimeng seemed to stand still with some indescribable concealment.
He turned his head and frowned slightly, thinking that she was afraid that there would be snakes on the tree, and said, "This time I'll climb over first." ”
She looked at him with a sad face.
"There are no more snakes in the trees." He stepped forward to take a closer look and made sure that he had told her with certainty.
"I know there are no snakes." Ye Zimeng bit her lip, her face flushed, and her speech was a little slurred, "But I want to go to the toilet." ”
On a desert island, there is definitely no bathroom, and you can only go anywhere when you go to the toilet.
Although she is usually quite thick-skinned, in this case, she is also ashamed to find a hole to get into!
But she can't help it, people have three urgency, and it is justified. What's more, these three urges were frightened by the fat snake in advance, and it had nothing to do with her. She has consciously controlled the amount of water she drinks along the way, okay!
As soon as she said this, Wei Jin's expressionless face couldn't give any expression, or rather, he didn't know what kind of expression to give.
Lonely men and widows, in the wilderness.
So, next, do you really want to shoot on the spot?
Ye Meng wants to cry without tears.
