Chapter 559: Mysterious Tiger

The cave is dark, and the light is like a bean. Under the flickering light, Xu Wenlong, who had been guarding almost all night, finally fell asleep peacefully, fell asleep, and completely forgot his troubles, sorrows, and the care of the stubborn Yu Wenli, until he ......

Yes...... A scream, like thunder on the ground, suddenly entered the cave, and the humming and humming echoes continued.

Xu Wenlong, who was asleep, got up in shock, glanced at the empty Yu Wenli lying in the cave, said "terrible", hurriedly grabbed the dagger beside him, jumped off the resting platform like a gust of wind, jumped over the cave hall in three or five steps, rushed out of the cave in a hurry, and searched for Yu Wenli, who was missing......

"Over here, come over here, there's a surprise waiting for you!" Outside the cave, Yu Wenli danced with her hands and smiled, smiling like a flower, and was squatting behind a big tree to wave her hand to the panicked Xu Wenlong. She was very satisfied with her "masterpiece". Hehehehe, he was scared of him, but in the end he got back a game and saved face! Isn't it? Who told him to threaten himself last night?

Xu Wenlong glared at Yu Wenli, and looked around with a dagger, until the hidden danger was eliminated and the safety was confirmed, he walked over to her with a straight face and annoyance......

"Look, surprised? Not surprised? Yu Wenli was as if nothing had happened on the surface, but in fact she snickered, especially when she saw Xu Wenlong's mute appearance like eating yellow lotus, it was as sweet as drinking honey.

Xu Wenlong came to the big tree with a stomach full of anger, and looked in the direction that Yu Wenli was pointing, and his mouth couldn't close when he opened wide. I saw a muntjac and a baby fish lying in the bushes at the bottom of the tree. They all had their eyes closed and their throats pierced, apparently killed by a tiger bite. And the muntjac is nothing, not big. The key is that the baby fish, more than one meter long, russet brown, stubby limbs, very peculiar appearance, not to mention more than 20 pounds, I don't know how the tiger pulled it up from the deep pool. Look at most of the wild boars that were thrown out last night, and there is nothing left except a few bone scraps.

Yu Wenli coughed, came to Xu Wenlong with her hands behind her back, and tried her best to put on a prophetic look and said, "How is it?" In the face of two rich gifts, you should always have a new understanding of the tiger's kind intentions. Don't you believe that it is trying to show us goodwill, and is trying its best to repay us for saving our lives? Let me first state that I came out of the cave after daylight, and I did not break my solemn promise to go out of the cave alone at night. Who made you sleep so deeply? I'm still sleeping in the sun, I'm lazier than a pig! ”

Xu Wenlong was speechless, but he didn't agree with Yu Wenli's opinion. He looked at the muntjac and the baby fish for a long time, and only after a long time squeezed out a sentence between his teeth: "Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, you better give me some peace, especially away from the tiger, and don't use your wishful thinking to treat the inhuman beast." ”

Yu Wenli snorted in her nose, obviously unconvinced. Fortunately, when she was in a smug situation, she didn't want to "see" like Xu Wenlong, so she only smiled and changed her face and said, "The ingredients are good, and you can change the taste again today." Therefore, if you don't die in a great disaster, you will have a blessing, and I think this blessing is the blessing of eating and changing on this island. We deserve to enjoy life here and be happy until we grow old. What are you doing? Why don't you move our 'koufu' into the hole? ”

Xu Wenlong thought about it, and finally obeyed Yu Wenli's assignment. Anyway, it's the food delivered to the door, and if you don't eat it for nothing, you won't have to hunt it yourself. He moved the muntjac and the baby fish into the cave twice, but he didn't rush to wash and barbecue, but said to Yu Wenli, who was eager to try: "I'm going to the top of the mountain to wait for the passing ships." What do you do? Is it better to stay alone in the cave? Or would you like to go up the mountain with me? ”

Yu Wenli's eyes rolled for a while, and then she put on a good girl and said, "Of course I'll go up the mountain with you!" Otherwise, you will suspect that I have sneaked out of the cave and played outside at will, especially worried that I would get close to the tiger. Nagging, chattering, making people's ears calloused. ”

"Then let's go, we may have to stay in the mountains for a long time." Xu Wenlong took the barbecue, put on the javelin, and strode out of the cave first.

Yu Wenli grabbed a handful of durians, glanced at the hideous-looking baby fish, and hurriedly followed Xu Wenlong to the cave.

The two of them followed yesterday's path, turning around and finally climbing to the top of the mountain, one collapsed on the stone slab, panting like a cow, unable to move; One stood on the cliff and looked into the distance, carefully searching for anomalies on the surface of the sea.

The sun is rising, the birds are happy, and the jungle is green and vibrant. The lucky island under the sun is fresh and refined, almost like Penglai Wonderland.

Yu Wenli gasped for a while, then turned over and sat up again, looked at Xu Wenlong, who was watching the sea with all his eyes, and said, "We only care about staring at the south and northwest directions, what if there are ships passing by from the east?" Isn't that a missed chance to be rescued? ”

Xu Wenlong sighed and said, "That's also a way." The island is so big that we can only juggle all three directions at the moment. As for the eastern end, I thought we'd wait until we got acquainted with the island before we went there and looked at it and found a way to put up a conspicuous sign to let passing ships know that someone was shipwrecked. ”

"yes, if only the island were a little smaller! In this way, ships passing in any direction will not escape our eyes. Yu Wenli couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and happily ran to pick wildflowers. In fact, she just talked about it, and she didn't really want to leave here. As she has been saying, this island is rich in products, there is food and drink, and there are no bad people to hurt her, so why leave? Why not stay and live happily for the rest of your life?

The two of them kept watch on the top of the mountain, from morning to afternoon, from sunrise in the east to the fall of Jinwuxi, the barbecue was finished, and Yu Wenli's garlands were also braided, but they didn't see half of the passing steamers, and they didn't even find a sampan. In desperation, Xu Wenlong had no choice but to take Yu Wenli to the bottom of the mountain in displeasure.

Yu Wenli was tired of staying on the mountain for a long time, and she couldn't move around at will, let alone go elsewhere to play alone, so she was excited when it came to going down the mountain, and she quickly ran back to the cave.

Xu Wenlong was depressed and depressed, but he had to do what he had to do. He peeled off the muntjac skin and removed one of his hind legs to keep it. Although the baby fish is delicious, because I have eaten too much fish, I have been tired of eating it for a long time, so I don't want the whole thing, and throw it out of the hole along with the skinless muntjac. Regenerate a fire, and sit down to barbecue muntjac meat without thinking. After the roasting, Yu Wenli, who was chattering, ate and slept, and inspected the pigskin pickled in plant ash, and found that the effect was not ideal, so he discarded it, picked up the freshly peeled muntjac skin, cut off a few large pieces of the foot, dismantled a few surviving fishing rope silk threads, and threaded the cut muntjac skin with silk threads, and finally made a pair of "leather shoes" that could barely protect the feet. Although the appearance is ugly and there are almost no shoe patterns, it is comfortable to put on the feet, and you no longer have to suffer from sharp stones.

There was no word all night, but it was calm and peaceful, including the annoying baby fish no longer crowing. The next day, when the two of them came out of the cave, they saw that the muntjac meat and the baby fish had been eaten by the tiger again, and without exception they left a gift—a fat and strong capybara shaped like a mouse. This made Yu Wenli especially happy and happy, and at the same time, Xu Wenlong was even more surprised. However, since the tiger had this "good deed", Xu Wenlong temporarily dispelled the idea of killing it, and only climbed to the top of the mountain to watch the boat.

In this way, the tiger will bring a prey every night. There are different species and sizes, ranging from wild boars and muntjac deer, to python apes. Xu Wenlong ate one and kept one as usual (the apes were exempted, and the human-like ones really couldn't put their mouths), and then went to the top of the mountain to wait patiently for a day, of course, they were disappointed every day. During this period, Xu Wenlong was not idle. He found a large number of different kinds of dead branches, selected a rigid and strong one, cut and smoked it for several nights, and then used the fishing rope and silk thread as a string to make a bow with great tension. As for the arrows, they are also simple and made of local materials. Take some finger size, moderate length of hard dead branches, cut evenly, and then sharpen the sharp pig bone deer bone as the arrow, with the long wild pheasant tail feathers to make arrow feathers, more than ten arrows are made. Take it out of the cave and try it, the accuracy is excellent, the strength is amazing, and it is not a problem to shoot a medium-sized wild boar at all.

After five or six days in a blink of an eye, the salt in the cave was finished, and Yu Wenli was also tired of eating barbecue, so she only used wild fruits and spring water to satisfy her hunger every day, and she showed a strong nostalgia for coconut meat and seafood soup every once in a while. In this regard, Xu Wenlong naturally saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart. After some careful consideration, he decided to go to the life-saving beach alone to solve the salt problem and Yu Wenli's anorexia.

On this day, Xu Wenlong got up early, and after eating and drinking, he brought a dagger, bow, arrow, javelin and other self-defense equipment, and explained to Yu Wenli with a solemn face: "I will go, at least five or six hours, and at most ** hours." Fortunately, the tiger does not seem to be malicious and does not come out to hunt during the day, which is reassuring. But in order to prevent other accidental injuries, you must stay in the cave honestly. If there is danger, hide in the crevices and do not come out under any circumstances. In particular, you can't go into the jungle alone, and you can't attack wild beasts at will. Because some animals seem to be kind and harmless to humans and animals on the surface, but in fact they are insidious and extremely poisonous, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will kill people, and you don't even have a chance to rescue them. ”

Yu Wenli's face was flushed, her excitement was inexplicable, she did not dislike Xu Wenlong's repeated advice and emphasized again and again, and she did not cry and wipe her tears because of his departure, but smiled and nodded in agreement: "You can go with confidence, I will definitely listen to your persuasion, remember your teachings, never run around, never provoke wild beasts, and ensure that there is no lack of arms and legs standing at the entrance of the cave waiting for your return." ”

Xu Wenlong patted Yu Wenli on the shoulder, picked up the javelin and strode out of the cave. It's just that before he walked two or three steps away, he turned around and turned back, and said to Yu Wenli with a serious expression: "In case of any accident, I can't come back on time, or even never come back, I just hope you don't do stupid things, you have to live well, and wait patiently for the rescue from the outside world." I'm sure they're going to do a big search, and sooner or later they'll find the island. ”

Yu Wenli listened to it for a while, hurriedly restrained her smile, hugged Xu Wenlong's waist tightly with both hands, and said with a choked voice: "Don't, I don't want you to have an accident, you must come back for me!" Otherwise, I would have come out looking for you! Even death will come out for you! Even if I dig three feet into the ground and search the whole island, I will find you! ”

"Don't talk nonsense here, just remember my words!" Xu Wenlong touched Yu Wenli's hair, gently broke away from his embrace, and walked out of the cave without turning his head.

"Come back, be sure to come back!" Yu Wenli revealed her true feelings, gloomy and sad, and kept shouting behind him.
