Chapter Ninety-Nine: Are You Asleep?

I ignored her and walked up to the dead fish and shrimp at the ditch.

I glanced at Zhou Xian, then sighed and said, "Uncle Zhou, you go in first and have a good rest." I want to bury these dead fish and shrimp. ”

When Zhou Zhou Xian heard me say this, he nodded, waved at Yamaguchi Momoe and Colonel Will, and motioned for them to go into the thatched hut with him.

Rutana slowly pushed open the wooden door with both hands, only to hear a "creak" sound, and she pushed the wooden door into a dark corner.

I took a deep breath and looked up at the creaking sound, and saw that it was dark inside the hut, as if it had entered the night.

With her hands under her waist, Rutana staggered towards the thatched hut, and as she wore a series of jewels and silver chains, the ornaments on her body made a "jingling" sound as she walked.

Zhou Zhou Xian and the others followed behind Lutana very easily, looking at their faces with an expression of dissatisfaction.

Indeed, the thatched hut looked dark and damp, and it was a very torturous place to live for those who had not been accustomed to the environment for a long time.

Personally, I don't want to rest in that thatched hut either. And now we live outside, here in the wilderness, the transportation is backward, and there are no hotels and inns, where do we have the right to choose by ourselves?

When they had entered the thatched hut, I sighed and picked up a fishing net with a long hook on a piece of grass next to the thatched hut.

I plan to use this net to recover the dead fish and shrimp carcasses floating in the ditch, and then dig a pit for them and bury them.

Some people may say that I am making too much of a fuss about this, some dead fish and shrimp, why should it be so ceremoniously acted.

Actually, if the corpses of these dead fish and shrimp are allowed to float in the small ditch, then their corpses will be black and smelly, producing toxic gases. When the time comes, it will definitely affect the environment in the air.

Therefore, it is indeed a great good deed that they are properly arranged.

I breathed a long sigh of relief, tightened my grip on the fishing net in my hand, and slowly fished out the dead fish floating on the surface of the water little by little. I put the dead fish and shrimp on the ground, dropped the nets, and reached out to get a shovel from the door of the thatched hut.

After about half an hour, I finally dug a grave large enough to hold the dead fish and shrimp carcasses.

When I had dug the pit, I was almost tired, and I was sweating profusely and sitting on the ground panting. At that moment, I only felt my heart beating faster and faster, and my chest rising and falling. It became extremely difficult to breathe even so easily that it was extremely difficult.

It wasn't until a little bit of time passed that I slowly recovered. I stood up and patted the dirt and dust off my body. Then he walked towards the thatched hut.

Stepping into the thatched house, I don't know when a candle was lit inside, the candlelight was not much brighter, but for the thatched house, which was originally extremely dark, it was already particularly bright.

I looked up and saw a huge rectangular wooden bed on the right side of the door, which was so huge that it was no exaggeration to say that it was enough to cover three domestic beds commonly used in ordinary homes.

What surprised me even more was that I saw Zhou Zhou Xian and the others lying quietly on the huge bed, and when I looked closely, they were all drowsy and asleep.

They looked serene, as if they were in a dream. But when confronted with their situation, I suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Why do they fall asleep en masse? Why not even a sober person? Even if you are tired and fall asleep, why can't you even hear Zhou Xian's snoring? Isn't this a strange and incomprehensible phenomenon?

I tiptoed up to Zhou Xian's approach, and pushed his body with open hands.

Usually in this case, if he is really asleep, he will wake up soon after he realizes that someone is pushing him.

I did this to test whether Zhou Zhou Xian and the others were really asleep, and secondly, to see if something happened to them.

Something that worries me always comes up, and after I shook his body with all my strength, Zhou Zhou Xian didn't react in the slightest. I was shocked and reached out and touched his body, for fear that he would have an indescribable abnormality, after all, Zhou Zhou Xian was already in his seventies, and his physical condition naturally could not be compared with us young people. Coupled with the fact that our group has been working hard for several days lately, but rarely resting, it is inevitable that I will be cranky about his current situation for a while.

When I reached out and touched his stomach, my heart suddenly cooled, because I obviously felt that his body was cold, and the temperature was not at all what ordinary people should have.

Naturally, I was so panicked at this time that I froze for a moment.

At that moment, I heard a violent dry cough, and when I looked up, the source of the sound was beside the giant bed, and I saw a young woman sitting on a wooden chair, and she was smiling at me.

It was only now that I noticed that the woman was Rutana, and because of the poor lighting in the room, I had not noticed that she had been sitting in the chair all this time, and I was really blind.

When I heard Rutana's voice, I froze, and then let out a long breath and forced myself to pick myself up.

I continued to shake Zhou Xian's body, praying that he would wake up soon. However, in the face of my desperate shouting and pushing and pulling, Zhou Zhou Xian didn't even move. As if it were a dead man, at that moment I only felt a chill all over my body, I reached out to his nostrils in a panic, hoping that he was still alive, but the moment I reached into his nostrils, I was very obvious that my hands were beginning to cold.

God, I couldn't even touch his breath. I suspected that I was dazzled, so I rubbed my eyes desperately, and then calmed down, and reached out again to slowly touch Zhou Xian's body, hoping that this time I could touch the temperature that a normal person should have on his body.

However, disappointment always followed, and I noticed that Zhou Xian's body was still chilling, and when I probed his breath again, he was still breathless
