Chapter 554: Night Baby's Cry
Xu Wenlong put the roasted waterfowl on the clean banana leaves, smelled the fragrant meat, endured the gurgling salivation, carefully turned over the roasted pheasant mud buns, and then collected many fruits such as pears, melons, durians and other fruits collected during the day, including the roasted grouper that had not been eaten yesterday, one by one on the thick thatch, and finally picked up a wild duck to be roasted and put it into the fire.
Yu Wenli finally finished taking a shower, refreshed, and radiant, and walked over with a sizzling nose.
Xu Wenlong pointed to the grilled water birds and a large pile of fruit grilled fish, and said to her with a smile: "Eat." Tonight, there will be no more storms, stormy waves, no more bites from sharks, fish, wolves, insects, tigers and leopards, you can eat happily and sleep peacefully, you don't have to worry about anything, and there is nothing to worry about. ”
Yu Wenli smiled, sat down next to Xu Wenlong gently, and the little bird hugged him like a human and said, "Yes, thank God, thank you Bodhisattva, we survived, we survived." And live well, without worrying about eating, drinking, or wearing...... Forget it, wear it. She looked down at the dirty clothes on her body, then looked at Xu Wenlong's smooth upper body, and continued with a smile, "It's still a little worrying to wear, but it's nothing." In short, we are alive and well now, and we will definitely be alive well in the future! ”
Xu Wenlong patted Yu Wenli's shoulder, tore a hot fat bird leg dripping with grease, peeled off the burnt skin, sprinkled some fine salt grains, and carefully handed it to her: "Eat, you don't need to eat fish today, you can finally change the taste." ”
Yu Wenli took it and sniffed it vigorously, closed her eyes slightly and said intoxicatedly: "Fragrant, so fragrant!" The real meat aroma is completely different from the aroma of grilled fish! After speaking, he stretched out his mouth and bit it, and the hungry ghost was reincarnated, without a trace of ladylike demeanor.
Xu Wenlong smiled with relief, tore off the body of the half-pulled bird, dipped it in fine salt, and ate it.
Although the bird's leg is fragrant, the taste is also beautiful, and the portion is a little larger after all. Even though Yu Wenli hadn't eaten the so-called meat that was completely different from grilled fish for more than ten or twenty days, she still choked on a whole bird's leg, and she didn't eat the fruit, wiped a mouth full of grease, and leaned on Xu Wenlong with satisfaction and said, "It's so comfortable, it's so happy." For some reason, the other day I was always looking forward to having a good meal and getting a good night's sleep. But now that I'm full and have a comfortable 'room', I'm not sleepy or tired. Tell me, isn't that weird and incredible? ”
"It's okay, you'll be sleepy in a while." Xu Wenlong flipped the sizzling wild duck over the roast, and then gulped down the delicious barbecue.
"Maybe, I don't want to sleep at all anyway." Yu Wenli leaned on Xu Wenlong's body tightly, looking at the raging fire with a happy expression.
It took Xu Wenlong more than an hour to finish grilling the wild duck and snake meat, including the large plantain picked by Yu Wenli. Of course, the taste is very good. In particular, the so-called "called chicken", after peeling off the mud layer, the outside is yellow and the inside is white, smooth and fresh, steaming, and the fragrance is overflowing. It's a pity that the two of them have eaten too much, and they can't eat anything anymore, so they can only wrap them one by one with banana leaves, place them on a clean stone slab, and leave them to eat tomorrow.
Yu Wenli began to be very emotional, talking and being full of interest, saying everything and asking everything. Later, I finally got sleepy and went to sleep in my "room".
After Xu Wenlong finished baking the food, he couldn't sleep. Yes, now that the conditions are good, you don't have to worry about eating and drinking, if you are careful, there should be no mortal danger. It's just that I'm on an isolated island, and it's hard to move an inch, but when will I be able to get out of the predicament? But when will we find those evil pirates? But when will he be able to rescue his beloved Shiqi? Alas, fate, fate, but why do you love to play tricks on people so much?
The night is quiet, the insects outside the cave are chirping, the stars are shining, the bonfire in the cave is swaying, and there is no sound at all.
Xu Wenlong sat silently in front of the windowsill, motionless and staring at the sparkling sea outside the window, full of sorrow and sorrow for a while, a heart is like a mist rising from the sea, curling Nana, fluttering and leisurely, no landing, no support, no goal and no direction.
Woo wow woo woo ...... Suddenly there was a baby cry in the silent cave. The voice is poignant, breathtaking, and reverberates in the distance, especially weird, which makes people can't help but feel cold sweat and numb scalp when they hear it.
Yu Wenli, who was sleeping, opened her eyes suddenly, jumped up from the soft "bed", didn't have time to put on her clothes, jumped out of the room with a pair of obscene pants, and cried and drilled into Xu Wenlong's arms: "Ghost, there is a ghost!" We've strayed into a ghost hole, a whole litter of imps, and we're dead......"
Xu Wenlong was also taken aback at first glance, but he didn't believe in anything weird or anything. While his eyes widened and carefully searched for the place where the sound came from, he hugged Yu Wenli, who was trembling all over, and comforted: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, what ghosts are there in this world?" It must have been from a frog or an unknown fish. ”
As soon as the words fell, a strange cry of "woo wow woo wow" sounded outside the cave, singing and echoing each other from afar, which was really terrifying, and the whole body burst goosebumps.
"It's miserable, we're surrounded by imps. I don't even know how the fuck I'm going to die! Yu Wenli's face was pale, her eyes were frightened, and she couldn't wait to get into Xu Wenlong's stomach.
Xu Wenlong's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked Yu Wenli: "Did you say that there are four-legged fish in the waterhole outside?" Big, long, kind of crocodile-like kind? ”
Yu Wenli shrank in his arms, and replied without raising her head: "Yes, yes, it's black, it's ugly and terrible." Don't...... Could it be that the imp has changed? ”
"That's okay," Xu Wenlong pushed Yu Wenli away, smiling and telling her, "That's a baby fish, it's not dangerous at all." ”
"Baby fish? What baby fish? When Yu Wenli heard this, she raised her head in disbelief, looked at Xu Wenlong in confusion and said, "Do you look like a doll-like fish?" It's impossible, I can see it clearly, it doesn't look like a doll at all. ”
"It's not that it looks like a doll, but it sounds like a newborn doll." Xu Wenlong patiently explained.
"I see." Yu Wenli breathed a sigh of relief, but still frowned and asked worriedly, "Are you sure they are not dangerous?" Won't bite? In case of...... In case ......"
"No whatever, it's just a fish. It mainly lives in remote streams and deep pools, and poses no threat to humans. If you listen carefully, the cries outside come from the edge of the pool, and here they come from the mouth of the river hole. I guess there are pools in the cave, and it won't be very shallow. So, you better go back to sleep and don't worry about them. ”
"No, I can't sleep now, I need you to stay with me until they stop screaming." Yu Wenli looked down as she spoke, and found that she was almost naked. So his face flushed, and he hurriedly stood up and said, "Wait a minute, I'll put on some clothes and then come back......"
The baby fish continued to whine, one after another, mournful and miserable, like a child crying milk, and like a baby crying at night. The screams make people upset, frenzied, and a heart pounding. It's no wonder that Yu Wenli was so scared that she couldn't sleep.
Suddenly, a mighty and majestic roar came from outside the cave, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and the cave buzzed. After the sound, the whole world fell silent, and there was no sound at all, including the annoying baby fish crying.
Yu Wenli screamed, turned around and stumbled back, threw herself into Xu Wenlong's arms like an ostrich, buried her head and said in a trembling voice: "Old ...... Old...... Damn the tiger again...... It...... It...... It's ironclad with us...... Carried on the ...... If we don't eat, we won't stop...... Oh my god, last night...... I shouldn't have saved it last night...... This...... This ungrateful fellow...... but it is called...... but how we are good......"
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, the tiger won't and won't dare to run into the cave. Even if we come, there are many holes here, and if we dodge inside, it won't hurt us a single hair. Xu Wenlong comforted Yu Wenli in his mouth, but he was really surprised in his heart. Oh no, is its nose really that sensitive? Or have you been following us all the time? It seems that if you want to live here, you have to find a way to get rid of it. No, there will be endless suffering, and maybe one day the two of them will become its mouth and stomach.
"How...... What to do? Yu Wenli continued to bury her head and said, "If it guards us at the entrance of the cave every day, then how will we live?" Do you want...... Do you want to find another place to live? Woowoo...... It's all my fault...... It's all my fault...... The ghost is obsessed with kindness, and wants to save its life, but in the end, like a stupid husband, it will be bitten back......"
Xu Wenlong swept the dagger in his hand and gently comforted her: "Don't worry, it's no big deal." If it dares to howl at the entrance of the cave every day, I will definitely find a way to get rid of it. ”
Yu Wenli raised her head with a sigh, looked at Xu Wenlong fixedly, and said, "What...... What's the solution? What can you do? You...... You can't beat it! It was tall and fierce, and it ran like a gust of wind. ”
"There are many ways," Xu Wenlong replied with a wry smile, "poisoning, digging traps, and installing traps, all of which will kill it." Don't worry about poison, this jungle is everywhere. For example, tree frogs, mushrooms, snake fluid, and so on. ”
"That'...... Let's start tomorrow. Yu Wenli looked at Xu Wenlong with a pleading gaze and said, "If you don't get rid of it, I will be scared to death by it sooner or later." ”
"We'll see in two days." Xu Wenlong replied lightly, "If it is smart, it should stay away from us." ”
Yu Wenli glared at Xu Wenlong unhappily, pouted and said, "Okay, you are the boss, you are in charge." If it eats me tomorrow, I'm not going to let you go. I follow you every day, shouting at you every night, and I want to scare you to death. After saying that, she quickly stood up, ran into the cave like a frightened rabbit, put on her clothes and ran out like an arrow, trembling close to Xu Wenlong, looking around the cave with frightened eyes, as if the annoying tiger would suddenly jump out of a crack in a hole and pounce viciously on herself.
Strangely enough, after the tiger outside the cave roared, it was no longer heard as if it had never been there. Soon the worms outside the cave began to chirp again, chirping and cooing merrily, and occasionally hearing a sad bird cry or two and a furious beast roar from the jungle. But the baby fish are much more honest, and I don't see them crying for a long time. It seems that the tiger has lost patience and is at a loss for food.
After another hour, Yu Wenli, who was beating her spirit, couldn't support it all day long, and fell asleep in Xu Wenlong's arms. Xu Wenlong heard that there was nothing wrong around, so he carried Yu Wenli back to her cave and lay down, and he moved the thatch to the entrance of her cave, and fell asleep in a daze with a dagger in his hand.
