Chapter 42
"You agree to a fart!" Zhao Zhongjian couldn't bear it anymore, yelled at Wu Xueli, turned his face and glared at Nian Xiaoye angrily and said, "You cripple, why do you say that I hurt everyone, did I steal the car?" Obviously it was given to me by Song Yelin, everyone saw it with their own eyes and heard it, and what evidence do you have to prove that I punctured the tires of the car? You show me the evidence. β
"Who else but you?"
"Empty words, don't try to wronged me."
"You ......"
Mo Ci sat up with his head, looked coldly at the two who were arguing, and said unhappily: "Don't quarrel, if you quarrel again, the two of you will form a team." β
As soon as he heard this, Zhao Zhongjian immediately retracted.
Nian Xiaoye looked at Mo Ci very dissatisfied, and sneered and teased: "Who do you think you are?" Our Chief? β
"I didn't say that, don't button my hat indiscriminately."
"You're in charge of everything, don't you think you're amazing?"
"It seems that you are very unconvinced."
"I'm just not convinced."
"Since you are so unconvinced, it is better to let everyone choose for themselves, who is willing to follow me, I am very welcome, if you don't want to, please do it yourself, I will definitely not force you to stay."
Mo Yu was the first to raise his hand and said, "I will definitely follow my sister and my father." β
Father Mo nodded heavily.
Li Yanqi and Song Yelin glanced at each other, and they both chose Mo Ci, not to mention Xu Ziheng, Jiang Chen, and Xiaolu.
The remaining Zhao Zhongjian, Wu Xueli, Nian Xiaoye and Wang Ruogu looked at each other in embarrassment.
Zhao Zhongjian wanted to choose Mo Ci very much, but considering the mustard between him and Mo Ci, he couldn't directly call Mo Ci's name, so he had to say, "I want to follow Song Yelin." β
Wang Ruogu and Wu Xueli hesitated for a moment, and they both stood in Mo Ci's team, in such a harsh living environment, it was naturally safer to follow the large army.
So, there is only one year left that Xiaoye is still lingering.
"How do you choose?" Mo Ci looked at her.
She gritted her teeth with hatred in her heart, but she didn't show anything on her face, glanced at Song Yelin and Li Yanqi, and said, "I want to follow Brother Song and Brother Li." β
Li Yanqi almost vomited a mouthful of blood.
As soon as he thought that he had walked such a long way with Nian Xiaoye on his back, he couldn't help but shudder, Nian Xiaoye was not light, and he was tired enough to walk all the way on his back.
The corners of Mo Ci's mouth twitched slightly, she had nothing more to say, and lay down again and pillowed her backpack to get ready to sleep.
The others gathered around the fire, and said a word.
The night was getting darker, the wind was a little cool, and the waves were crashing against the reef on the shore from time to time, and the wood was crackling.
When she was about to fall asleep in a daze, Mo Ci felt something crawl on her arm, and her intuition was a living thing, her scalp was numb, and she opened her eyes and subconsciously shook her hand.
It was a worm, the worm was thrown out by her more than half a meter away, through the light of the fire, she could clearly see the whole picture of the worm, as long as an adult's middle finger, unable to distinguish the head and tail, the appearance was disgusting and terrifying.
Without thinking, she picked up a twig and pulled the worm into the fire.
The insects were curled up by the fire and made a 'chirping' sound.
Everyone was frightened by the appearance of the bug, and their faces changed instantly.
"It's like a Death Worm, a monster that exists in the desert, but it's just a legend." Wu Xueli stared at the insect with a serious expression.
"Are you sure?"
"I've only heard of this legend, I can't tell if it's true or not, I just know that if one of these worms is found, there may be more nearby."
Wu Xueli's words made Nian Xiaoye tremble with fright, and hurriedly looked around to make sure that there were no insects before calming down.
"You don't have to be alarmist."
"I'm just saying what I know, and that one is clearly just a larvae, and legend has it that the Death Worm is 1.5 meters long, and they prefer damp and dark environments, and they can spew a corrosive liquid like sulfuric acid, which is very dangerous."
Mo Ci got goosebumps, she didn't dare to continue to lie on the beach to sleep, and everyone else got up one after another, some with flashlights to shine around, and some picked up torches to protect themselves.
After a good inspection of the surroundings, no other worms were found.
Just when Mo Ci secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Boss Zhao suddenly screamed, and he was so frightened that he took a few steps back, and fell to the ground in embarrassment.
"Yes...... There are a lot of bugs. The flashlight in Boss Zhao's hand shone straight ahead.
The beam of light shone on the ground, and there was a hill-like pile of sand at some point, on which worms kept crawling out, fine and dense in large groups, some large and some small, the largest as long as an adult's arm, and the scalp of a person was numb.
The group also survived the strong wind and waves, but when they saw such a scene, they were all like vegetables, panicked and at a loss.
Wu Xueli and the three of them have been living on the island for four days, but this is the first time they have seen a death worm.
The people took their bags, picked up their things and torches, and ran.
Boss Zhao crawled to catch up with the big army, and Nian Xiaoye was left far behind because of his inconvenience.
She limped with her crutches and ran as hard as she could.
Behind her were the slow-moving worms chasing her.
"Help me, help meβ"
Mo Ci heard the shout and turned around, and saw that the worm with the largest size was about to catch up with Nian Xiaoye, and she didn't want to meddle with it, but her hand subconsciously threw the torch in her hand.
The torch fell on the worm, and it let out a 'chirp' and curled its body into a ball.
Nian Xiaoye took the opportunity to escape and caught up with them.
The group rushed into the woods, running out of breath.
"There's a cave over there." Wu Shirley pointed in one direction and said.
The cave was where they had been hiding, and it was much safer than the outside. So she led the way, and the others hurried after her in the direction of the cave.
In the direction of the cave, on the east side of the forest, they spent a long time walking out of the dense forest, only to find a river in front of them.
There was a layer of green duckweed floating on the river, and they had to cross it to get to the cave.
Wu Xueli obviously did not cross the river for the first time, and she reassured everyone and said, "Don't worry, the river is very shallow." Then take the lead and go into the water.
The river was not deep, and when she reached the middle of the river, it was only up to her waist.
Everyone entered the water one after another to keep up with Wu Xueli.
The river water was a little cold, Mo Ci gritted her teeth with her back to the path and followed the people in front of her, and as soon as she got ashore, the people walking behind her screamed 'ah'.
She turned around in panic, there were still three people in the water, namely her father, Wang Ruogu and Nian Xiaoye, Nian Xiaoye looked frightened, and slowly walked to the end.
It seemed to be her dad who had just screamed.
She put down the path, stepped into the river again and took a few steps forward, and after helping her father to the shore, she asked eagerly, "What's the matter?" β
"Looks like something bit me."
