Chapter 523: A Bitter Past
Looking at the raft in front of him, which was only less than three square meters, Yan Qiluo really didn't have the confidence that he could escape from this island on such a simple raft.
Count Phil didn't think so either.
So, everyone is still going to live in this terrible cave tonight.
Yan Qiluo thought for a while and said: Can we change the cave?
Count Phil looked at Yan Qiluo with a smile: Do you think you can find a cave with better ventilation than this? Although the cave is home to many neighbors, it is undeniably well ventilated.
Yan Qiluo hung his head and said: But those neighbors are not good stubble?
Count Phil couldn't help but reach out and rub the top of Yan Qiluo's head.
The fluffy touch made Count Phil's red eyes can't help but sparkle.
It's okay, light a few more campfires tonight, they won't dare to come down. Earl Phil comforted Yan Qiluo in a low voice: This rain will gradually weaken by tomorrow until it disappears. As soon as the rain stops, our progress will be quickened and we will be able to leave quickly. Today while you were pitching the raft, I picked up quite a few branches, enough for us to light all night.
Hearing Count Phil say this, Yan Qiluo nodded reluctantly.
Looking at the neighbors who are in high spirits again overhead, Yan Qiluo really feels that he can't sleep well this night!
However, the necessary rest is a must.
In order to prevent himself from becoming a delicacy for bats after falling asleep, Yan Qiluo wrapped himself from beginning to end, leaving only two nostrils to breathe.
Seeing Yan Qiluo wrap himself into a mummy, Count Phil almost burst out laughing on the spot.
Maybe he was really tired during the day, Yan Qiluo was originally quite worried about the bat overhead, but he was too sleepy, and he fell asleep after a while.
After Count Phil waited for Yan Qiluo to fall asleep, he turned away and gently unbuttoned the raft on the shore.
He didn't want to go back so early.
Yan Qiluo fell asleep in a daze, and suddenly had a terrible dream.
In the dream, a large group of bats pounced on him at once, sucking all the blood from his body.
Yan Qiluo screamed in fright and woke up.
Yan Qiluo sat up with a spirit, only to find that Count Phil was not around.
Yan Qiluo's mind immediately made up the picture of Count Phil being killed collectively by the group of vampire bats above his head, which was really terrifying and creepy!
Earl Phil? Lord Earl! Yan Qiluo opened his mouth tremblingly, trembling more than the other: You...... Are you still alive?
Count Phil, who was about to continue unbuttoning, heard the call behind him, immediately stopped his movements, turned around and walked over quickly: What? The face is so ugly?
Yan Qiluo almost cried.
What a terrifying experience it is to have a nightmare and then find out that the whole world is just you!
Yan Qiluo felt ashamed, and didn't say anything, but just said: Why didn't you rest?
Count Phil's red eyes flashed, and he said, "I just went to check the raft you tied." Sure enough, it was released as soon as the water was released, but unfortunately, it will be re-tied tomorrow.
Yes?! Yan Qiluo didn't expect it to become like this, and he was suddenly discouraged, and his feeling of fear was diluted a lot.
Can't sleep? Count Phil sat down opposite Yan Qiluo and gently lit the bonfire to make it burn a little brighter.
Because of Count Phil, the branches of the wood are dried in time, and when the old ones are burned, the new ones can be burned.
So, their bonfires never stopped.
Yan Qiluo nodded: Why don't I come to the vigil, you go and rest for a while. You've just had a fever and need to rest.
It's okay, I can't sleep either, so let's talk. Count Phil looked at Yan Qiluo with a smile: Although we are acquaintances now, we don't seem to know each other very well.
Yan Qiluo nodded.
It's strange to be able to cook.
A few days ago, the man in front of him was still an enemy who snatched his son from him.
Now I didn't expect to survive on this desert island with him.
My name is Joan? Phil, but most people still call me Lord Earl. That's because the title was conferred by Her Majesty the Queen herself. Earl Phil began to tell his story: When I was very young, I helped Her Majesty solve a problem, and my father, Grand Duke Phil, happened to hold a secret of Her Majesty at that time, so in order to envelop my father, and to show his affection for me, he gave me the title of Earl. Our family titles are hereditary, and when my father dies, I will become a hereditary Grand Duke. If I had children, my children would be hereditary earls as I am now.
Yan Qiluo looked at Count Phil with interest.
It's hard to hear such secrets.
You might say that the title is now a virtual reality. In today's society, a knighthood is just like a symbol, like an honorary advisor, just a reputation exists. However, you should also know that although these titles have become a bunch of useless symbols, much of the British economy is still in the hands of a few. Coincidentally, my family is one of them. Earl Phil continued: So even without this title, in the United Kingdom, the Phil family is an existence that cannot be questioned casually.
At a very young age, I was told that I was the future heir to Earl Phil. So, many people came to me and begged me. There are also people who despise me and want to kill me. I became cynical, because what I got was too easy, so I didn't cherish it when I lost it. The corners of Earl Phil's mouth curled, and he said, "When I was fifteen years old, I experienced something that disgusted me.
Yan Qiluo looked at Count Phil with surprise.
How did he become so chatty today?
However, Yan Qiluo is a very good qualified listener, and when the other party doesn't need to interject herself, she will only listen obediently.
A very beautiful girl who had grown up with me was brought to my bed, and I was told that I was going to make her pregnant with my child and the heir of the Phil family. I had a crush on this girl at first, and I didn't want this to happen to her, so I decided to let her go. But when I was untying the rope, this girl suddenly attacked me! While I was unconscious, I was drugged...... Hehe, you may have already guessed what happened next, right? I was played by her. Count Phil chuckled: "When I woke up, I was told that the purpose of this girl's existence, from the very beginning when she was sent to me, was to give birth to an heir.
This girl is my cousin. Isn't it evil? I'll admit I'm disgusted. Although the Phil family has always been married in order to ensure the purity of the bloodline, I will never allow me to be robbed of my things in such a humiliating position. Count Phil's red eyes were much deeper: Afterwards, I was angry. Because my father did it in collusion with others. From that time on, I began to become very rebellious, taking the initiative to hang out among the flowers, but never taking responsibility.
Probably God did not allow this deformed child to come into this world, the girl was not pregnant, she was disposed of by the family. Yes, as long as there is no woman who has given the family offspring, it is disposed of. Count Phil folded his hands on his knees, tilted his head and looked at Yan Qiluo: Do you think I'm dirty?
Yan Qiluo shook his head in shock.
She didn't expect Count Phil to have such an unspeakable past.
My eldest brother was born with hypochondriasis from the moment he was born. I can't get out of bed for the rest of my life. My second brother was born until now, there is a deviation in the brain area, he is obviously very smart, but he is extremely introverted and autistic, he lacks the ability to communicate with people. I was the only one of the three brothers who was normal, but also the most unlucky. Because I exist as a stallion.
I'm not ugly, am I? Count Phil reached out and touched his cheek: this face used to make countless ladies and ladies in London crazy.
Yan Qiluo couldn't help but complain and said: If you are ugly, there is nothing ugly in this world. Wen Muyan is good-looking enough, right? If a person's appearance is full of ten points, then the current Wen Muyan is nine points and nine points, and you are nine points and six points.
Count Phil suddenly laughed softly: "I am really honored to be so highly praised by you. However, I'm curious, who is the man with a perfect score of 10 in your eyes?
Yan Qiluo replied without hesitation: Of course it's my son!
Count Phil smiled even more heartily: I see.
At the peak of my appearance, I announced that I would never marry in my life and became an unmarried family. When the news broke, I was severely punished by my father, but I was unmoved. In the end, I ran away from home and didn't go back to that home at all. As time passed, my father finally relented and said, "I will not be asked to choose a woman in the family to inherit the next generation, as long as the other party is British." I still refused. Later, the father's requirements were lowered again, as long as it was a woman! Then I refused again. In the end, my father was forced to have no choice but to ask me to freeze my sperm and force me to find a child. Again, of course, I refused.
I used such a childish method to resist the family and vent my dissatisfaction. The father extracted the cells from the eldest brother and the second brother, but found that they were no longer able to reproduce normally and naturally. Unless Jiro Hirayama's method is adopted, I am the only one left who can continue the descendants of the Phil family.
Just when the two of us were at a stalemate, Gu Miao appeared in our sight. Count Phil smiled and said, "When I heard the news, my father was simply crazy with joy. Say everything to bring Gu Miao back to the family.
Yan Qiluo nodded, indicating that she understood.
