Chapter 56
Xiao Lu lowered his head, very stubborn, he compared himself with himself, and looked up at the scallop in Mo Ci's hand, then swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and muttered in a compromised voice: "Sister Mo Ci." ”
Mo Ci raised his eyebrows: "What do you call me?" ”
"Sister Mo Ci." It's still the sound of mosquitoes humming.
"I can't hear clearly."
Xiao Lu took a deep breath and raised his voice: "Sister Mo Ci." ”
This time, the voice was loud and the words were clear.
Mo Ci nodded with satisfaction, and didn't embarrass the little guy anymore, and directly gave the scallops in his hand to Xiaolu.
Watching Xiao Lu gulp and eat with relish, she suddenly remembered how Xiao Lu cried when Wang Chunhua was caught by the monster, and now, she finally understood a little bit about his crying and troublesome behavior at that time.
Maybe it's only when you lose a loved one yourself that you can empathize.
She looked into the forest in the distance, where the fire was still raging.
"Sister, you eat more." Mo Yu handed her the two scallops that had been baked, and said intimately, "Be careful of scalding." ”
She was slightly stunned for a moment, and reached out to probe the temperature of Mo Yu's forehead, which was quite normal.
"I don't have a fever."
Mo Yu glanced at her, forced the scallops into her and said, "If you give it to you, you will take it, what so much nonsense." ”
“……”
The younger brother, who has always grabbed food and drink, actually knew that he felt sorry for her.
She suddenly thought of the last words that her father left for Mo Yu when he was dragged into the lair of the death worm - you are already a man, don't cry, take care of your sister.
Her nose suddenly soured, and tears fell.
Before anyone saw it, she quickly wiped away her tears and lowered her eyes to eat the grilled scallops that Mo Yu gave her.
……
The forest fires continued for three days, covering almost the entire island, and the forest would soon be gone, so they had to stay on the beach to the south and wait for the fire to be completely extinguished before setting off for the beach to the north.
In the past three days, the wound on Mo Ci's leg bitten by a leech has scabbed, and the trauma is almost healed, but due to the large amount of blood loss, she occasionally feels dizzy and weak, typical symptoms of anemia, but fortunately, the oysters and scallops they found on the beach have the effect of replenishing blood.
Mo Yu stood on the reef, stared at the forest in the distance for a while, waved at Mo Ci and said, "Sister, we can go." ”
There was still a lot of smoke in the forest in the distance, but the fire was mostly under control, and they could almost safely reach the north as long as they avoided the smoke-filled area.
Mo Ci called Mo Yu back, thought for a moment and said, "I think we should walk along the beach." ”
"Why take a long detour?"
"The surface temperature is not that high, and the likelihood of being attacked by mutated creatures is also relatively low."
Mo Yu nodded, "Listen to you." ”
Anyway, what his sister said made sense.
Everyone packed their backpacks and headed southeast along the sandy beach by the sea.
The last place where the fire burned was to the northwest, where there may be some escaped mutated creatures moving, and it was wisest to go southeast in order not to risk it.
After walking for a while, Mo Ci was a little tired, and her speed gradually slowed down, she looked back at Nian Xiaoye, who was walking at the end, and found that Nian Xiaoye's face was very ugly.
"Are you okay?"
Nian Xiaoye waved his hand, took out a water bottle from his backpack, took out an antibiotic, and took a pill with water.
"The injury is not healed yet?"
Nian Xiaoye shook his head, "I don't think it's going to get better." ”
No one else cared about her condition, but she knew very well that the wound had been badly festered, and now there was no clean gauze to replace, and the disinfectant had run out, and she only had a few antibiotics left on her.
She intuitively felt that her injury would get worse and worse, and if she kept dragging it out like this, it would kill her sooner or later.
"If we can get out of here as soon as possible and get better treatment, maybe this leg can be saved." She smiled bitterly at Mo Ci.
"Next, it's just waiting for the next wave of survivors to be sent over."
Mo Ci was still thinking about the hijacking, she looked at Mo Yu who was walking in front, thinking that one of the games that Mo Yu had often played before was a simulation of the real flight of an airplane, and the degree of simulation was very high, and she didn't know if Mo Yu could drive a real plane.
After walking for more than two hours in a row, Mo Ci really couldn't walk, she and Nian Xiaoye stopped to rest, and the people in front of them were still walking.
Song Yelin turned around by chance and saw them sitting on the beach resting, so he stopped everyone else.
Taking out a bottle of water from his backpack, Song Yelin summoned Xiaolu to the front, handed the water to the little guy and said, "Go and send some water to your sister Mo Ci." ”
Xiaolu took the water and ran towards Mo Ci with a fart.
"Good." Mo Ci smiled and rubbed Xiao Lu's natural curls, Xiao Lu suddenly thought that when his mother was still there, he often rubbed his head like this, he felt very kind, and couldn't help hugging Mo Ci.
Mo Ci was drinking water, and was so startled by Xiao Lu's sudden action that he almost squirted out a mouthful of water.
She lowered her eyes and looked at the coquettish path, a little overwhelmed for a moment.
Xiao Lu finished sprinkling, ran back to Song Yelin with his head down, and stretched out his hand to ask Song Yelin for water to drink.
Song Yelin pushed him to Li Yanqi and said, "Ask him." ”
The group rested for more than ten minutes and continued on the road.
Towards evening, they reached the northern beach, and after a few rounds around the neighborhood to make sure there were no signs of mutated creatures, they relented.
Li Yanqi took Xu Ziheng to pick up some dry firewood, set up a fire and prepared a barbecue.
Song Yelin took out the glass jar in his backpack, and there was only half a jar of water left, and in the past three days, the other jar of water had been drunk by them, and the water on the others didn't add up much.
I don't know when the next batch of survivors will be delivered, but this half jar of water will last them for two days at most.
Li Yanqi saw that he was worried about the water problem, and said with a smile: "Don't be sad, go look for water when there is no water, besides, we have been on this island for five or six days, and the next wave of survivors should almost be sent." ”
As soon as the words fell, a piercing bell rang, and it was very loud.
The bell seemed to be coming from the direction of the mountain in the lab.
Zhao Zhongjian was excited, and hurriedly said: "I remember this voice, there was such a sound on the day you were sent, and there was also that radio sound. ”
"What do you mean ......" Mo Yu's eyes widened in surprise, and before he could finish speaking, he was preempted by Wu Xueli and said, "The next wave of survivors will be sent soon." ”
Mo Ci got up, extinguished the fire that Li Yanqi had just set up with sand, and said solemnly: "Everyone pay attention to concealment, we are going to hijack the plane." ”
The bell rang for more than ten seconds, and as soon as the roots of their ears cleared, they heard the sound of a helicopter again, and there were flashing lights not far away.
"Ambush." Song Yelin let out a low snort, pulled Mo Ci to his side, and dragged Mo Ci all the way to hide behind a reef.
