Chapter 21: Survival on a Desert Island (End)
Bale's English is good, probably because he is British.
…………
When the two returned from their expedition to the center of the island, the first thing they did was to plant the new vegetable seeds they had collected in the vegetable garden. Zhang Heng hesitated again and again, but still gave up the idea of making a short skirt for himself, mainly because the skirt was without a stick, and he still couldn't cos Monkey King.
Eventually, the two jaguar skins were processed into blankets by Bell and spread on the beds, and the nursery was soon filled with prey caught by the explorers.
Mickey Mouse seemed a little surprised to see that he suddenly had so many more neighbors, and Zhang Heng even found a wife for him, so that the two people on the island would have bird eggs to eat in the future.
Now Zhang Heng finally has a feeling of conquering nature, there are more than 20 kinds of vegetables to eat, and there are even two more seasonings, the fish and crabs in the pond can be fished casually, and he can eat meat every day, and more importantly, he finally has someone who can talk to him.
It felt like Robinson had met Friday.
Well, from a teacher-student point of view, he might be more like Friday.
Zhang Heng now spends at least 4 hours a day to learn English with Bell, listening, speaking, reading and writing are covered, in addition to this, he has not put down archery training, although the goal of practicing archery has disappeared now, but this matter has become his habit for a year, Zhang Heng just no longer spends as much time as before, and Bell also taught him a few small tricks of self-defense.
At this point, Zhang Heng finally feels a little bit like the master of nature.
In the early morning of the 520th day, a rescue boat saw a distress bonfire lit on the beach, set a lifeboat down, and before it could reach the shore, a woman jumped into the water from above, crying and running.
"My wife, Kayla." The explorer also put down the homemade fishing rod in his hand and stood up excitedly.
The two hugged each other tightly.
Then Bell untied the knife on his waist and put it in Zhang Heng's hand, "According to our previous promise, this thing belongs to you." I have been to many dangerous places on earth, polar regions, deserts, plateaus...... However, it was the first time to be on a desert island like this, it was a very memorable and valuable experience, you are my forever friend, not only have you learned from me these days, but I have also learned a lot from you, such as the first time I learned that there is such a thing as grammar in English. ”
“…………”
"Let's go, my friend, it's time for us to go home."
Zhang Heng followed Mr. and Mrs. Bell to climb onto the rescue boat, and there were several TV reporters on it, and everyone cheered and applauded when they saw the explorer return safely.
Zhang Heng took a hot shower on the boat, changed into the clothes provided by the sailors, and finally had a feeling of returning to civilized society, but he did not join the carnival afterward, but found a corner where no one paid attention and sat quietly, because it was almost two hours before he left the real world.
It was definitely the longest two hours of his life.
Zhang Heng was still a little curious, how he was going to return to the real world, but the next moment it suddenly went dark in front of him, and the familiar prompt sound sounded in his ears again.
[Arrival of the return deadline, task completion confirmation ......]
[Cleared the newcomer dungeon Desert Island Survival, the first round of the game is over, and you are about to return to the real world......]
…………
When Zhang Heng regained his vision, he found himself sitting at the bar counter of the bar, with the glass of lemonade in front of him that he had only taken a small sip.
Zhang Heng reached out and touched his cheek for the first time, but it turned out that there was no longer the thick stubble and the rough texture after the wind and sun.
The bartender lady thoughtfully pulled out a box of foundation from her small bag and handed it to someone.
Zhang Heng used the mirror above to see that he was no different from when he first came to the bar, he was still wearing the original sportswear and sneakers, and the Swiss Army knife was also in his pocket.
"So what is this, a strange dream?"
"No, you did disappear in the last two hours, not only in this room, in this bar, but in any corner of the world." Miss Bartender took back her foundation case, "You should have a lot of questions in your mind right now, but unfortunately I can't answer most of them, and you need to explore them yourself in the game." ”
“…………”
"The only thing I can tell you is that this game will be played once every natural month, except that the first round time is fixed, you can choose to come to the game point at any time to play, not necessarily a sex and the city bar, because there is more than one game point in each city, if you can't find it, you can also call customer service, pay a certain price and use a special login service, and if you don't log in after the deadline, you will be disqualified."
"Participants in the game accept the confidentiality agreement by default, and do not disclose things related to the game to anyone other than the player and staff, well, this is also the most basic constraint, don't take chances."
Miss Bartender touched her chin, "What else, I want to think about it...... Oh, in addition to logging in to the game, the game point also provides various other services, and you can also consult customer service for detailed service content. ”
She tore off a sticky note and quickly left a string of numbers on it, "This is the customer service number, don't call if it's okay, because your customer service is me." ”
"You've got a lot of work." Zhang Heng said with emotion.
"There's no way, who made the housing prices in big cities so high now." Miss Bartender sighed, "Okay, do you have anything else?" ”
Zhang Heng took out a ball of furry things from his pocket, "Among the services you said, the package doesn't include identification?" ”
Not just the beard on his face and the scars on his shoulders, but everything in that copy, including the large pile of stone tools he had made and the knife that Bell had given him, had not been able to return to reality with him.
Only the rabbit's foot, which he didn't know what to do, was still lying quietly in his pocket.
"Game items?" Miss bartender was surprised, "It seems that you have a good harvest this time, the number of this kind of thing is very rare, many people can't meet one after a few rounds of games, I can indeed identify it here, but the handling fee costs 5 game points, do you have it?" ”
"How do I pay?"
Miss bartender took out a tablet and clicked on it a few times to bring up the payment interface, "Enter your player number and click confirm, don't worry about the number being fraudulently used, this kind of payment must be personally involved to be effective." ”
It may be that after stepping into the bar, he has seen too many unscientific things, and Zhang Heng is already a little numb.
He had memorized the numbers, and when he had finished typing, the bartender put on her gloves and put away the rabbit's feet in a small wooden box.
"It will take some time for the identification, about two or three days, and I will send you a message when it is completed."
Zhang Heng was attracted by her movements, and an ominous premonition suddenly rose in his heart, "Wait, what do you mean, why are you so careful?" ”
