Chapter 16: The Soul (Part II)
Shi Shaoying couldn't help but be stunned, but he still comforted the man who was not much younger than him, "Hey, hey, hey, manly tofu, blood and sweat without tears, why do you cry like a little girl." Even if you're stuck here, we're all right, and we're not separated for two hours, right? ”
Huahu cried while complaining to Shi Shaoying: "He said that you have already driven the boat away and don't want me anymore." ”
Shi Shaoying raised his eyebrows suspiciously: "He? Which he? ”
Looking in the direction of Huahu's finger, Shi Shaoying saw a new paragraph on the LCD screen: "I really didn't expect that in this case, Shi Shaoying, you would dare to rush to the island alone, admire." 'Desert Island Survival' is a pass. As long as you can get out of the island alive, you'll have a real ticket to the race. ”
"Tick ......!"
In a long electronic beep, Pei Tongtong's anxious voice suddenly came from the walkie-talkie on Shi Shaoying's ears, although she knew that the radio communication had been blocked, she still kept repeating: "Shi Shaoying, please reply when you hear it; Shi Shaoying, please reply when you hear it......"
"Don't worry, Huahu and I are alive."
Pei Tongtong really didn't expect the communication to be restored unexpectedly, she was stunned for a second or two before she said urgently: "How is it, can you return safely?" ”
Shi Shaoying looked at the glass house he was in, and now there were man-eating ants climbing up the glass wall under the temptation of food, listening to the series of squeaky and tooth-sore sounds emitted by the entire glass house, Shi Shaoying said in a deep voice: "If you can't do it, you have to do it!" You're ready to take us over! ”
Cutting off this communication, Shi Shaoying took out a small packet of white powder from his pocket, and carefully sprinkled them on the flower fox as evenly as possible, a strong and familiar smell rushed straight to the end of his nose, because of Shi Shaoying's arrival, the obviously calm flower fox sniffed and blurted out: "Mothballs? ”
On a damp boat that is prone to insects and ants, it has become a basic common sense to prepare enough mothballs for clothing, bedding or wool products. Shi Shaoying collected four small bags on the yacht and grinded them into powder.
"Yes, don't talk about this thing, there are really special effects in terms of ant repellent. I sprinkled two packets on my body, and wherever I went, the man-eating ants scattered, and as long as we walked slowly, they wouldn't dare pounce. ”
After sprinkling a thin layer of camphor powder evenly on Hua Hu's body, Shi Shaoying poured all the rest on Hua Hu's hair, and then stretched out his big hand to rub it indiscriminately, "Although I haven't tested it, I think that if you get it like this, those 'grenadier' beetles will be honest." ”
He stayed in the glass house and didn't see the war on the lake, so Hua Hu didn't understand what a "grenadier" beetle was, but he still stood there honestly, letting Shi Shaoying scribble on his hair and face, until he turned his whole body into a huge mothball, which emitted a strong smell.
After doing all this, Shi Shaoying's eyes fell on the self-defense pistol that Hua Hu was still holding in his hand, and after a little thought, he understood the meaning behind Hua Hu's action. Shi Shaoying suddenly took the gun in Hua Hu's hand, and fired three shots at the machine "bang", "bang", "bang", and "bang", looking at the white smoke rising from the machine, Shi Shaoying threw the pistol back to Hua Hu, and said indifferently: "He is not only scaring you, but also dares to sow discord, I have already shot him in the 'will'." Remember, in the future, you have to believe in me, the big brother, instead of believing that a person who doesn't even dare to show his face hides behind a machine and talks nonsense. ”
Flower Fox nodded desperately.
"Follow me, walk out slowly, don't panic."
After repeated instructions, Shi Shaoying slowly pushed open the door of the glass room. Facing the dense crowd outside the glass house, as long as they rushed up, he and Hua Hu would definitely die, and they were man-eating ants with no dead corpses, Shi Shaoying took a step forward steadily. As he took this step, the man-eating ants that were still densely packed at the door just now flew away as if they had encountered a natural enemy, leaving only the hundreds of ants that Shi Shaoying trampled to death under his feet.
Finding that Huahu was still standing in place in a daze, Shi Shaoying frowned slightly: "Follow me, why are you stunned." ”
"I ......"
Huahu's voice was as small as a mosquito humming: "My legs are so weak that I can't walk a step." ”
As soon as the words fell, Hua Hu saw Shi Shaoying striding back, throwing off the carbon dioxide fire extinguisher on his body, and bending down with his back to Hua Hu: "Climb up, my captain will style once today, and he will bow his head to Hua Hu Niu." ”
Half a minute later, Shi Shaoying walked out of the glass house with the flower fox on his back.
Standing in their position and looking around, within the reach of their line of sight, there were dense man-eating ants running back and forth everywhere, and a group of "grenadier" beetles were even more thieves hovering more than ten meters away from them, but they were afraid of the smell of mothballs on Shi Shaoying and Hua Fox, and they didn't dare to approach easily.
"If you're afraid, close your eyes." Shi Shaoying's voice sounded so calm at this time, and it was easy to dispel the fear in Hua Hu's heart: "When you open your eyes again, we will already be back on the boat." ”
Hua Hu shook his head lightly, looking at the dense man-eating ants in front of him, he really couldn't imagine how much courage a person had to use to walk from the shore to the center of the island step by step, just because he couldn't imagine, so he had to keep his eyes open and watch how Shi Shaoying walked this journey.
Shi Shaoying walked very slowly, very slowly. Every step he took was as if he had entered a minefield laid by the enemy. But sometimes he would take two sharp steps and stop again.
After carefully observing for a few minutes, Hua Hu realized that Shi Shaoying was moving in the direction of the wind, and if there was no wind, he would take one step at a time, using a mechanically precise and steady rhythm, and slowly move forward in the shortest way of the line of two points. Once the wind picks up, he moves quickly in the direction of the wind, ensuring that the two of them are always surrounded by the smell of camphor powder.
The smell is the ultimate protection measure for the two of them, Shi Shaoying is protected by the smell of camphor powder, it seems that wherever he goes, the man-eating ants will flee in all directions, but once the wind direction changes, he does not move with the wind, the army of man-eating ants may pounce over, and at that time, a mere layer of camphor powder will definitely not be able to stop tens of millions of man-eating ants who are about to go crazy!
Only when you are immersed in the scene will you understand that Shi Shaoying is now walking on a wire rope with him on his back. There aren't too many tricks, maybe not brilliant, but definitely dangerous.
"Why is it that I, a little white face who only knows how to rely on women, are taking such a big risk?"
Is it for Pei Tongtong to put forward a "immortal legend" theory?
Is it because they made a vow to advance and retreat together?
Huahu can't understand, he really can't understand.
Shi Shaoying did not pause, he always used a steady and slow rhythm, step by step, step by step, just when Hua Hu thought that Shi Shaoying would never pay attention to this question again, he heard Shi Shaoying's singing. The two of them have been together for so long, and it is the first time that Huahu has heard Shi Shaoying sing.
Shi Shaoying's singing voice was not good, but he sang seriously and seriously, low, long, with a soul trembling singing, slowly spit out through Shi Shaoying's broad chest, and began to echo in the sky above this small island.
This is a Japanese song, perhaps because its lyrics have too strong resonance with Shi Shaoying's soul, Shi Shaoying, a foreign language blind who can only rely on a "super translator" to communicate with foreigners, will imprint every syllable and every tune of it into his brain like a copy, forming a swan song for his soul.
Although there is nothing special at all, it takes a lot of love to hold it in your hands.
If you want to face your destiny head-on, if you want to face your destiny, you should go forward with the consciousness of carrying everything on your back...... The lyrics of this song are not very exquisite, there is no gorgeous dazzling, there is no resonance of the long history of the big era, but in the simplicity and unpretentiousness, it is a little person who is manipulated by fate and seems to be able to live like an ant, facing the desperate situation of death, with dreams and hopes, with the most sincere love for his companions and relatives, step by step to the battlefield without regrets.
Listen and listen, unconsciously, Huahu is really stupid.
Isn't this song sung by Shi Shaoying the most realistic portrayal of the environment they are in now, as well as the decision made by Shi Shaoying?
Dear friends, please think back to how many precious things we once gave up on the road of our lives for various reasons?
I used to have a girlfriend who loved each other, but because of work, because of the house, because of the lottery money, and I was full of labor, only when I dreamed back at midnight, I would vaguely think of her softness, her charm, and her goodness?
For a chance to be promoted, he regarded his former friend as an enemy, and trampled him under his feet by all means, and since then, when he is proud and frustrated, he has no best friends to share with?
In order to make himself more mature, he threw away how many youths and splendor that could only belong to young people, including courage and straightforwardness?
In order to sign a large order, she was pushed into bed by the customer half-pushed and half-pushed, and while gaining money, she lost the moral bottom line of a woman who seems to be becoming more and more worthless in this era?
Because of the achievements of a certain person around him, he kept chewing his tongue behind his back, and even happily spread some rumors that he thought were unlikely, until that person's reputation stinked, and his psychology was balanced, but at the same time, he also lost a person's integrity?
…… Whether we succeed or not, when we are old and can only lie quietly on the bed and look at the flower that has withered in the corner of the table, and suddenly look back and relive our lives, will you find that on the road of your life, you have owned so many valuable things that did not seem particularly precious at the time, but were abandoned for more benefits or purely because of helplessness?
Perhaps it was from the lyrics of this song that he found his own answer, in the face of a desert island full of murderous machines, Shi Shaoying walked inside alone, and then carried the flower fox on the way back with the same calmness.
Looking at the dense man-eating ants as endless as the vast sea and starry sky, in front of Shi Shaoying, they fled in embarrassment as if they had encountered natural enemies, turned their heads to look at the long series of lonely footprints behind Shi Shaoying, and the dripping water line with sweat next to the footprints, slowly savoring the song that was sung over and over again, suddenly, Huahu finally understood Shi Shaoying with his own heart.
Huahu said in a low voice: "Brother." ”
The singing in Shi Shaoying's mouth stopped, from the realization to the present, Huahu has always called him "big brother", for a little gangster who is in the rivers and lakes, it has become an instinctive habit in their lives to call big brother when they meet people. At this time, although only one word is missing from Hua Hu's title for Shi Shaoying, how different is the change in meaning?
Shi Shaoying smiled, the smile on his face was like a clear sky and a bright moon, and he responded even more crisply: "Hmm! Look, Pei Tongtong and they are in front, they are waiting to pick us up. ”
Hearing Shi Shaoying's words, Hua Hu raised his head, in front of them, a yacht was parked on the sea not far from the shore, and a high-pressure water gun that could spray water columns fifty meters away had already aimed the muzzle of the gun in the direction they came from, and all the team members, including Pei Tongtong, were already fully armed, as long as Shi Shaoying and Hua Hu encountered a little danger, they would not hesitate to participate in the battle.
It wasn't until this time that Hua Hu knew why Shi Shaoying and the others had moved the position of the yacht half an hour ago. Looking at the entire island, only by landing from this position, Pei Tongtong and them can rush the fastest and attack the fiercest.
"I know you're rolling around and you've long learned to look at everyone with a distrustful attitude. It's a protective instinct that must be possessed in that environment. I also know that you have never been impressed by Pei Tongtong's theory of 'Immortal Legend', so I have no intention of using words to make you accept all this, I just hope that today, now, here, you can see each of their faces clearly and remember the choices of each of them! ”
Huahu nodded slightly, and suddenly he only felt that his heart was suddenly filled with something. From now on, he, a fox with a fake tiger, may never be confused again, and may never cringe again. Because in front of his fox, there is not a tiger, but a group of tigers, and a group of tigers will stop for him, until the wildest flames are set off!
The soldier is the courage of the general, and the soul of the soldier, and it was not until this time that Huahu really understood the meaning behind this sentence.
