Chapter 15: A Scarce Item
Countless seawater poured into the hut again and again.
Mars felt like his mouth and nose were full of salty seawater, and he could smell something fishy.
These things must have come from the depths of the ocean, or were emitted by some dead sea creatures.
Mars felt like he couldn't speak, his eyes closed, his right hand tugging at the handle.
At this moment, if someone can stand at a relatively high height and look, they will find that in the dark night, countless dark clouds are gathered above the island.
Lightning flashes in the clouds!
Then countless waves flooded the small island again and again.
Because the clouds in mid-air are moving eastward, and the island is moving westward.
So you can see that it won't be long before the island is about to enter the heart of the storm.
And soon, it will leave here too.
Mars's ears were full of seawater, and he couldn't get it out of his ears at this time.
Because the waves were still crashing against him, he didn't dare to move at all.
I don't know how long it has been.
The storm that had been roaring suddenly seemed to stop.
The only thing is that there is still the sound of rain.
At this time, it was no longer very noisy in the stone house.
"Father?"
Mars looked towards where his father was, and although he couldn't see it, he still watched.
"Well, don't move yet, we should be in the heart of the storm, grit our teeth and hold on until dawn, and we'll be fine. ”
"Hmm!"
Mars nodded reassuringly.
Darkness lets people know what to do to be safe.
So they didn't move, and only by holding on to the end could they be safe.
Neither of them moved, and the stone house, as it was reshaped by Mars, was basically a complete whole, and it would be very safe unless it hit a larger stone.
Mars and his father would not be picky about such a nice place, because it was very safe.
There was silence for a moment, followed by a louder wind.
The fierce sea breeze blew a whistle-like sound.
Mars knew it was because the center of the storm had shifted in a different direction than the previous wind, and it had formed a unique echo point with the island.
That's why there is such a voice.
And this time there will be more waves coming in.
In this case, there is no other way but to grit your teeth and persevere.
Mars continued to close his eyes, letting the storm come more violently.
A long time passed, and Mars felt as if something had come in from the doorway, and slammed into his arms.
At this time, it is already possible to see a little bit of light.
Mars looked at what looked like a package, and quickly grabbed it with his other hand, pressing it under the crook of his leg.
The whole action is so fast that the next wave of incoming waves has not yet appeared, and it has already been done.
Lawrence looked at his son's hand, but didn't say anything, because at this time, even if it was close, he couldn't hear it at all.
So I can only watch my son be safe, then there will be no problem.
In that moment, the night became bright.
Then the waves that were originally tumbling became weaker and the wind became quieter.
Mars watched as the tub hung intact on the back of the island, while his legs were still staring tightly at the stone in front of him, and he was stuck in the sea.
"It's alright, Mars, it's time to rest. ”
Directly east of the stone house, there were still countless black clouds in the sky, and lightning was also shuttling through the black clouds. Below the black clouds, the waves rolled and the sea was pitch black.
Mars could see that the storm on the sea was getting bigger and bigger, and when it grew to its maximum, it would face very big troubles no matter what it encountered.
At this moment, Mars spat out the seawater in his mouth, and then turned to look at his father.
"Father, you're not hurt, are you?"
"No, such a storm, we are hiding on a small island, does not cause me any problems at all. ”
Lawrence sat up straight with ease, and then moved his hands and feet to show his son.
"Father, let's eat something first!"
The taste in the mouth begins to stimulate the palate after the human spirit has relaxed, and Mars feels a little bitter in the mouth.
At this time, it is not only necessary to eat, but also to rinse the taste in your mouth and the contents of your nose with fresh water, otherwise it will be very uncomfortable.
"Look at the fish. ”
Lawrence said so, then turned his head to look at the freshwater.
Once the island was able to produce fresh water, Lawrence had Mars wrap the water in stones, and the pit where the water was stored was covered.
That way, nothing else gets into the polluted water.
After such a storm, there must be no way to drink the water in this puddle, so Lawrence can only open it first and clean it up.
Mars looked at the place where the fish was stored and was already empty.
So he could only look at his father.
The island is still too small to have a place to store food, otherwise it would not have been swept away by the sea.
"Father, what is this? It looks like a person's package!"
Mars didn't see the meat anymore, then let go of his legs, took out the wrapped thing, and asked his father.
It can be judged that this is a human thing, but unfortunately, the other party may have been shipwrecked, so it was carried by the waves, and then luck fell into Mars's arms.
This wrap is made from the skin of a creature in the sea, which is not only waterproof, but also very durable.
"Well, it's supposed to be other human treasures, but it's a pity they're in trouble. ”
Lawrence took one look and continued to scrub the pit to collect fresh water.
"Shall we open it and see?"
"Then open it, this package is yours to obtain, and it belongs to you. ”
Lawrence meant that this thing belonged to his son, so Mars could do whatever he wanted.
When Mars heard his father say this, he did not hesitate at all, but looked for the head tied with the rope and began to open it.
On the outside of the hides is a rope of hides, which are tightly tied.
Untie the leather rope and open the skin layer by layer.
The outside looks like it's been soaked in water for a long time, and it's a little seeping, but the back is very dry.
By this time, Lawrence had washed the puddle and watched his son open the package.
The package is wrapped in several layers, which means that the contents are very important, otherwise they would not be so carefully packed.
