Chapter 121: The Rest of the Desert Island (Asking for Tickets)
This day is definitely to remember.
If Captain Ross could have something to write about his flight diary, he would have done so. Because of this day, they solved some big problems. For example, the problem of accommodation and fresh water, of course, also prevents the invasion of predators and poisonous insects, and with it, the problem of food can be solved.
Including the wounded, there were twenty-five people in all. They weaved rudimentary stretchers, carried four seriously wounded men, and followed Will to the Lake District, who had come to ventilate and lead the way. Although carrying the wounded for more than an hour, everyone cheered when they saw the clear waters.
Yes, now I can finally sleep peacefully, don't worry about this, don't worry about that!
"Thank God!" Captain Ross drew a cross on his chest.
Zhen Fan and Danny greeted Rose on the beach of the lake, and the three of them shook each other's hands very emotionally.
Danny told Zhen Fan what happened, and Zhen Fan didn't exaggerate too much about how he killed the crocodile, and he revealed it in a few simple words.
"This is the contribution of our team, not me, Captain, if...... If I had to say that it was my contribution, then ...... Can you give me some more cookies? I was a little hungry after one of the most memorable nights, and of course it would have been better if there was water! ”
None of this is a problem. Ross readily agreed, even if there are not many cookies, what's the point of giving some to Zhen Fan? Water is not a problem, now they have a lake!
"What shall I say to them?" Rose looked at the jubilant crowd.
"Then don't say anything!" Zhen Fan smiled. "If you have to say it, then ...... This is a gift from God! That's it! ”
"Yes, my God!"
Danny couldn't help but laugh. Joking at Zhen Fan.
Twenty or thirty people can live in the cave, so this group of people can live here for a while until someone comes to their rescue. Food is running out anymore, but now the freed up manpower can be used to find prey in the vicinity and try their luck in the lake, where the fish are large and fat.
There are even people who have found a way to extract salt from the sea. Boiling salt in seawater is the most straightforward method, and although the salt obtained is still very primitive, it is enough to solve some problems.
But Ross for the sake of prudence. I didn't divide all the food, but still adopted a daily limited supply, but fortunately, on the first day. Zhen Fan led a few people to bring rich prey. It is then grilled in an open area in the hole, which gives people a lot of confidence.
And Zhen Fan also skinned a few crocodiles by the way, if possible, he wanted to bring these back with him, and then really make a leather bag and give it to Zoe, which would be a very good souvenir.
But Zoe poured cold water on him just in time.
"You wait to be arrested, these things are forbidden to be brought into the United States unless you can make them into leather goods now. Even so, of course. It doesn't have to be insured! ”
It seems that this is really just a beautiful idea, and Zhen Fan had to give up his original plan.
"Here's for you!" Zhen Fan cut off a piece of the leg meat of a wild deer. Hand it to Zoe, then cut another piece and hand it to Pattaya, handing the sharp piece of metal in his hand to Eldis. It's their knife for cutting meat.
Zhen Fan asked for two deer legs and set up a fire to barbecue by himself, although he could only smear some bitter saltwater-like things, but the taste was much better than simple venison, not to mention that since it was difficult to come, everyone lived on some food such as biscuits, which was supreme delicious for them.
Zhen Fan was wrapped in a somewhat torn dress, this was a dress that Zoe didn't know where to pick it up, it looked very small on Zhen Fan's body, and it looked a little funny. But much better than his original strip of rags.
"It tastes good!" Zoe smiled and took a few bites, "It's delicious as always, come to think of it, it's been a long time since I've tasted the food you made!" ”
"Not now?"
"Can I stay in your house?" Pattaya began to look forward to her life in Los Angeles, in her opinion, living in Zhen Fan's house and going to college in Los Angeles is the best arrangement, not to mention what I heard from Zoe just now, Zhen Fan can also make very delicious food.
The girl smiled with a smile of pleaser.
"Don't even think about it, I haven't done it yet!" Zoe didn't even look at this girl, what she was thinking, Zoe knew clearly.
When you meet such a "strange" man as Zhen Fan, do you want to make those girls who get along with him tempted? It seems to be a bit difficult, not to mention that the current Zhen is like a hero in the eyes of everyone.
Although Captain Ross did not mention any of Zhen Fan's great achievements, as long as the brain is not dull, anyone can think of the dozen or so crocodiles, I am afraid that this young man killed them.
So much so that the two people who wanted to eat alone with food and water on the first day, looking at Zhen Fan were both admiring and fearful, they didn't want to offend such a guy who gave people such a sense of insecurity.
"Aren't you ......" Pattaya looked at Zhen Fan and Zoe suspiciously, and suddenly her eyes lit up, "Oh, I know......" She smiled proudly, with an expression of knowing in her chest.
"What do you know?" Zhen Fan glared at her, "As long as she wants to, she can do it, so ...... Your expression is strange. ”
"Nothing!" Pattaya was still laughing, "But...... Can I go to your house often? You know, I'm studying alone, but I'm really lonely, I don't have any friends! ”
"Isn't there still me? Baby! Eldis was a little sad on the side, but he had planned to come to Los Angeles with his daughter.
"You don't count, Dad, I'm talking about friends!" Pattaya pouted dissatisfiedly.
"I thought I always was!" Eldis looked at Pattaya with some grievances. It's like a little boy who has been wronged and is begging his teacher for comfort.
This expression made Zhen Fan and Zoe laugh.
"Daddy-" Zhen Fan and Zoe's laughter seemed to Pattaya, and her father made herself feel embarrassed again, so she glared at him a little annoyed and lengthened her voice.
"So I'm sure I'm going to Los Angeles with you?"
"Yes, yes, this is something we have discussed for a long time, but this is not what I am going to say!" Pattaya looked at Eldis unhappily, "You're my dad, I need friends like me, young man - you know, dad, you're not young now!" ”
"Of course, all you see is my appearance!" Eldis looked at Pattaya seriously, "I feel like I have an eighteen-year-old heart, beating very strongly!" He pressed his heart with one hand, and the palms of his hands fell together, making his heart beating, and his mouth was very cooperative with a heartbeat-like sound of "bang" and "bang".
"Look-" Pattaya shrugged her shoulders helplessly at Zhen Fan.
"I see it, Pattaya!" Zhen Fan smiled, "Your father does have a young heart. Of course...... You are always welcome in my house if you want! ”
"You're so nice, Zhen!" Pattaya stretched out her head, leaned sideways and kissed Zhen Fan on the face.
"I love rewards like this!"
Zhen Fan's words made Pattaya a little proud.
"Okay, Zhen, don't play your talk show here, now all I want to think about is when we can leave this place of the hell!" Zoe rose to a lazy waist, and the nest she made moved from the beach and slept on it very comfortably, and Zhen also had one, which Eldis helped him make.
Zhen Fan also lay down. This night, he can haode to adjust his body. After going through so much, his internal breath was seriously depleted, and it could be seen from the fight with the crocodile that his protective enchantment actually did not play a very big role, so that he also suffered some injuries, albeit very lightly.
The repair of the communication equipment took longer than expected, because it was difficult to find a replacement after some things were damaged, which also cast a shadow on the hearts of some people who were originally more optimistic.
And at this time, in Los Angeles, USA, Zhen Fan knew everyone and Zoe's family was increasingly clouded with more and more thick clouds.
Christine has been out of shape for several days. Jackson didn't demand too much and blame her either. He is also a friend of Zhen Fan, and he still clearly remembers Christine's face after the news of a plane crash reported that day.
A plane flying from Vanuatu to Australia crashed over the South Pacific Ocean and its whereabouts remain unknown. The plane's black box had long been damaged, and no valuable clues could be found. But the list of passengers on the plane has already been announced.
Among them, 29 Americans were going to fly from Australia to Los Angeles in the United States.
And in the list of these twenty-nine people, the names of Zhen Fan and Zoe suddenly appeared.
"God, that's not true!"
Christine burst into tears when she saw the names of Zoe and Zhen Fan in the news, and finally couldn't help crying unscrupulously in the crew, not caring at all about the paparazzi who were following her and secretly filming.
"It's not true!"
This is also said by Sarah, who has been transferred to Washington, D.C., and has become a member of the FBI. But not long after she officially took up her post, she got such a news that the crashed plane did have Zhen Fan's name in it, and it was confirmed that it was him.
"This damn bastard—" Sarah couldn't hold back her tears anymore as she said that. She locked herself in her room and didn't come out for a whole day and a night.
"Mom, Uncle Zhen Weishenme is not coming home yet?" Claire didn't know anything, she just asked Anne over and over again in the past few days, with expectation and hope in her tone, "I miss Uncle Zhen." ”
"I don't know when he's going to be back, baby, but—you're right, who wouldn't want him?" Anne tried to give Claire a smile, but she hugged Claire tightly.
"Mommy—you're hurting me!" (To be continued......)
