Chapter 170: Who Stays
The night was getting darker and darker, and when the last rays of the sun fell, the whole world was surrounded by night, and the temperature dropped a lot, Tong Fei took a palm leaf and wanted to cover Li Chaoyang's body.
Just as her hand approached, Li Chaoyang suddenly grabbed her wrist and opened her eyes.
"What are you going to do?" Li Chaoyang looked at Tong Fei with a serious face.
"I ...... I'm afraid you'll catch a cold, so ......" Tong Fei raised the palm leaf in her hand and shook it, indicating that she had no malicious intent.
Li Chaoyang twisted his neck and raised the sniper rifle again.
"What can you see at night? Are we going to wait on this all night? Tong Fei didn't understand, she had seen the scope of the sniper rifle before, and it didn't have night vision.
Even if there is a moon at night, the visibility is pitiful, so what's the point of squatting on it like this?
"If you're a pirate and you're stuck in the woods, how do you keep the beasts out at night?" Li Chaoyang did not answer, but asked Tong Fei rhetorically.
"Make a fire!" Tong Fei suddenly realized.
"That's right, it's fire, the vegetation on the island is dense and foggy, even if there is a fire, it is difficult for us to distinguish whether it is smoke or fog, the fire is even more difficult to find, and the night is different, the fire will be particularly obvious in the dark, unless they hide in the cave, otherwise as long as they make a fire, we can find that not only this island, but also other surrounding islands, this is a perfect observation point, this is the real purpose of bringing you up."
Li Chaoyang moved the scope while explaining, and suddenly his words came to an abrupt end, and the person stopped moving.
Under a big tree in the direction of the swamp, Li Chaoyang saw the fire, and the number displayed on the scope indicated that this place was only seven hundred meters away from them.
This means that the pirates are moving in the direction of the cave, and they are about to enter the banyan forest with the forest of dragons.
The woods were too dense for Li Chaoyang to see the other party, but he was sure that someone must have gone to the island.
Li Chaoyang searched carefully and only found a firelight, the height of the Paradise Island in the distance was far above the Snake Island, it was pitch black, and nothing could be seen, and Chen Yaodong's group didn't know where they were hiding.
"What do you see?" Tong Fei asked.
"Enemy."
Li Chaoyang moved his position and retreated the sniper rifle, and instructed Tong Fei to observe.
Tong Fei also saw it, and her expression immediately became serious.
"What now?"
"Go back to sleep and clean them up tomorrow morning."
Since the pirates have lit a fire, it means that they are not going to move tonight, and it is relatively safe tonight.
After returning home, Li Chaoyang told Linda about the incident, and Linda speculated that the pirates were most likely hiding in a tree, and the fire was at their feet.
Li Chaoyang sat on the stone with a serious expression.
"Let's do it tomorrow morning." Linda saw through Li Chaoyang's thoughts.
"I'm with you, multiple people and many strengths."
Linda volunteered, she had just arrived, and if she wanted to stay, she had to highlight her importance, and fighting the pirates would clear her mind.
"I'm going with me too." Tong Fei said.
Li Chaoyang looked at the two women in front of him and had mixed feelings in his heart, if he couldn't stop these pirates tomorrow, then they would inevitably fall into the hands of pirates, and it would be inevitable that they would be killed and humiliated.
They were just friends with him, not even friends, and he could have fled alone with a rubber raft.
But he couldn't do that, he couldn't do such a thing as using two women as shields.
"There are only two guns, and you have no actual combat experience, so you can't go, and have you thought about it, what will happen if we can't win? will die. Li Chaoyang said.
"I'll go with you to stop them, and the other person can leave early, if it really doesn't work, you go first, and I'll stay." ”
Linda's words were loud and clear, there were only two guns, and one of the three of them didn't have to go to war, and could even leave alive.
Her life was saved by Li Chaoyang and them, even if she wanted to stay, she would stay, and Li Chaoyang and Tong Fei were in a gang, she had no chance of winning one against two, not so much to take the initiative, but to say that she had no choice at all.
The gun was on Li Chaoyang's body, and he could shoot her at any time.
"Isn't that okay?" Tong Fei did not hesitate to deny Linda's idea.
Although she has been through a lot, the kindness and work ethic in her heart cannot be changed, it is an instinct.
"No need to draw lots, I'll stay." Linda said.
"Where to run? Elysium? Li Chaoyang looked at the two of them.
They have no food, no oars, and how far can they escape with just one raft?
It's nothing more than going to the nearby islands, but who can guarantee that there will be no one on these islands?
Chen Yaodong, they are on Elysium, Li Chaoyang, what will Chen Yaodong think in the past? Last time on the Seawolf, Chen Yaodong was going to kill him, and there was no trust between them at all.
"You don't want to stay alone, do you? No, if that were the case, I wouldn't leave. Tong Fei's eyes turned red.
She and Linda are not familiar with each other, and now the only thing to rely on is Li Chaoyang, and she will not go anywhere without Li Chaoyang.
"I want to fight, they may not know about our existence, and we are in the open and they are in the dark, this is our advantage, tomorrow morning at five o'clock I will snipe them, you two take the raft to the beach and wait for me, if I don't come back before seven o'clock go by myself, the farther away the better."
Li Chaoyang made the final choice, originally he wanted to take someone with him, but when he thought that one of these two people had no actual combat experience, the other was injured, and taking them would only get in the way, he finally decided to go alone.
"Linda, you help me take care of Tong Fei, you leave quickly after hearing the gunshots, if I am still alive, I will shoot the sky twice." This is another important reason why Li Chaoyang decided to go alone.
Tong Fei is too weak, she needs someone to take care of her, and now the only one he can trust is Linda.
It was a gamble and he had no choice.
If they win, they still have a chance to survive, and if they lose, they have nothing.
This time the two women were stunned, Li Chaoyang is not a professional soldier, let alone a special soldier, he is just a writer, although he has rich experience in surviving in the wild, but he is now facing a group of murderous pirates, which are completely two concepts.
This is sending people to death.
Tong Fei's tears couldn't help falling anymore, Li Chaoyang really wanted to go together, the man who chose Han Xue last time chose her this time.
"No, I'm not leaving." Tong Fei cried.
"You're not leaving? Won't you leave and stay and drag me down? Do you use a sniper rifle? Dare to kill? Dare to go to the Banyan Grove? Li Chaoyang's words were like a cold blade, showing no mercy.
There is even a hint of disdain.
He is agitating and deliberately angry with Tong Fei, hoping that she can retreat from the difficulties.
It's harsh, but it's all true.
Tong Fei is a weak chicken, she will drag Li Chaoyang down, she can't use a sniper rifle, and she is even more afraid of the banyan forest.
She's a liability.
Tong Fei bit her lip and tears fell down uncontrollably, feeling uncomfortable and helpless.
"I'll go with you, I'll shoot, I've killed, and my feet are fine." Linda said.
"Are you sure? What if we lose? ”
Linda couldn't answer Li Chaoyang's question.
The atmosphere in the cave was a little tense for a while.
"Then I don't care, I'm going to go, I have nothing to do with you, you can't control me." Since it doesn't make sense that Tong Fei has a little temper, she knows that it is useless to ask for it, she still knows something about Li Chaoyang after being in contact with Li Chaoyang for so long, this person is calm and terrifying, it seems that he is thinking about it anytime and anywhere, and it is too difficult to change his decision.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Linda's voice suddenly sounded in Tong Fei's ears, Tong Fei turned her head in disbelief, her expression was complicated and disappointed.
"Sure enough, you are really an ungrateful villain, I wouldn't have saved you if I knew it, can you bear to send him to death alone?" Tong Fei smiled, laughing with disdain.
Today she has seen what it means to be cold-blooded and ruthless, and they saved Linda in the morning, and in less than a day, Linda chose to escape alone.
"Are you sure we can help? I'm sure he can handle it. Linda's eyes flashed, clearly lying.
"If you're afraid of death, just say it."
"That's right, I'm just afraid of death, I don't want to die, I want to live, is that wrong? Why don't you go first and I'll stay? ”
"Acting, don't pretend to be pitiful here, why are you so afraid of death that you let us go first, are you planning to sneak away in the middle of the night?"
The two women quarreled, and Li Chaoyang stopped them in time.
"Okay, don't talk about it, I can do whatever I say, go to sleep, I'll go to the door and watch."
Li Chaoyang walked to the entrance of the cave with a gun and lay down, Tong Fei hugged her knees and didn't feel sleepy, but Linda fell on the bed like a nobody, and closed her eyes.
The cave suddenly fell silent, the thick wood at the mouth of the bowl was burning in the flames, the flames were not high but very warm, Tong Fei got up and walked to Li Chaoyang's side and lay down.
"Can't sleep?" Li Chaoyang asked without looking back.
"What do you think? Either let's go together, if you can't get over the rubber raft with your conscience, we don't want it, this island is so big, as long as we don't appear, pirates will find us, and then I will go with you. Tong Fei's tone this time was very gentle, she clinged to Li Chaoyang like a little girl talking to her boyfriend.
"Come with me, you're not afraid of death?"
"I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid of anything with you, don't you have a girlfriend, if we can go back alive, I'll be your girlfriend."
Yes?
Li Chaoyang was amused, this Tong Fei is really a frank person, she doesn't seem to show any love, but she can see that she is serious.
"I know you're not afraid, but I'm not necessarily going to die, and I'm not a fool, if I can't beat me, I'll run." The situation is not as pessimistic as everyone imagined, Li Chaoyang has already thought about it, if there are too many enemies, he will take the initiative to give up and return, just like Tong Fei said, this island is big enough, it is not easy for pirates to find them.
"Okay, you must come back, I'll wait for you by the beach, if you don't come back, I won't leave."
"Deal."
Tong Fei stopped talking, leaned on Li Chaoyang's arms, and closed his eyes.
