Chapter 193: Isolated Island
"Whoop ....."
I don't know how many times I've repeated this paddle and water, and I feel exhausted now, and my arms are swinging almost instinctively.
"Well, hurry up and work harder, we're almost there."
Zhang Qian sat on the bow of the boat holding a sniper rifle, with one eye closed and the other eye watching through the sniper scope above.
"Well, it's a soft sand beach on it, and not far away is a patch of green vegetation. I don't know what's in the back, maybe it's a bunch of sour plums that make people drool. ”
I swallowed my saliva and paddled more energetically, confident in the island in front of me. Because there is vegetation on it, it means that we are still in the human world, as long as we are in the human world, then we don't need to worry too much.
As the sun set and night gradually fell, and we finally arrived at our destination, Zhang Qian was right, this is a circular island covered with vegetation.
The size of the island is not large, and I think it only takes two or three hours to go around it in a dinghy, and the vegetation looks like it grows on the hillside, and the layers of the island are dressed like a cockscomb.
When I got to the shore, I gave Zhang Qian the schoolbag with food, then put the sniper rifle around my neck, and finally pulled up my trouser legs and carried the rubber raft to the shore on the soft sand.
I wore all the things on the raft, leaving only two rows of crooked foot prints on the ground. Originally, we were still talking and laughing and full of hope for life, but when we got close to these vibrant green plants, we were dumbfounded. Because it wasn't vegetation at all, it was a strange shape of strange shapes and dark green rocks.
The lifeless scene made my smile on my face, and Zhang Qian couldn't help crying at this time, the faint crying broke the silence here and broke my heart.
As a last resort, I could only put the items in my hand for a while, and then hugged her tightly into my arms and told her that there was still hope in life, and I would take her out safely.
"Who said I cried over this?" Zhang Qian pushed away my embrace, wiped her tears and said.
"What's that? You don't ..... Aren't you sad when you're disappointed? I asked, puzzled.
"I don't know why."
Zhang Qian snorted, looked at the sun that was about to sink into the horizon, and said, "Let's find a place to rest quickly." ”
"Oh!"
I looked a little bit like a second monk, and I picked up the rubber raft on the ground and followed her step by step around the isolated island.
Hopefully we can find a bigger cave so we can rest better at night. Otherwise, if this island can't even give us a place to hide, then today's day will really be in vain.
The hard work paid off, and finally when we were about to spin around, we found a large karst cave, which was a milky white fossil-like substance.
While there was still light, I cleaned it up, stuffed the raft in, and finally lay down on the raft, not to mention how comfortable it felt, and a stream of pajamas gradually came to my heart.
Zhang Qian put the food in her hand at the entrance of the hole, and also bent down a few times, and I leaned sideways to free her up and continued to squint and fall asleep.
I haven't rested for a day and a night, and I'm really sleepy, and although I can't be treated like a normal human now, I can't deny the nature of my mortal body, right? Besides, the machine still has time to rest!
"Woo woo....."
A fluttering cry reached my ears and went straight to my cranial nerves, making me feel like I was in hell.
At first, I thought it was just a dream, but suddenly I thought of the current situation, and then I thought of Zhang Qian, who was crying during the day, and I realized that it was not good and opened my eyes and woke up.
At this moment, Zhang Qian was holding me tightly and burrowing her body into my arms, and I was sure that she was not asleep but frightened, because those whining sounds were coming from somewhere on the island like ghosts.
"Don't be afraid, sleep in peace, we'll check on the situation tomorrow." I have to take this conservative approach in the current situation, otherwise I will act rashly in the dead of night, and if I accidentally fall off the cliff without catching it, it will be over.
"Hmm."
I couldn't see any of her expressions in the dark and small space, I could only feel her head moving slightly. I hugged her in my arms again, the only thing I could give her at the moment.
The next day, it was slightly bright, but it was already more than eight o'clock in the morning, Zhang Qian was still curled up and asleep, and her arms were naturally carrying my waist, like a greedy kitten.
I gently lifted her arm, hoping not to disturb her, and crept out to put on my shoes. Yesterday the voice was clear, so I think that thing should be nearby and not too far away.
If it hasn't left and I've hit it, then today must be its dead date, and if that thing has left, I'll take the opportunity to carve some talismans nearby, so that it won't disturb our rest again and again.
Then I walked around the cave, and I didn't find anything like an evil spirit, and I didn't find any footprints, only these strangely shaped rocks left large and small cracks, and I didn't know what lived inside.
Now I can only implement the second plan, pull out the short sword and draw some runes on the hard rock, this kind of carving similar to the general talisman is called the spirit talisman. The principle is a bit like the meaning of a wild beast leaving some lead on a tree and swearing sovereignty over the territory.
Of course, this practice is also very dangerous, which is equivalent to exposing your weaknesses, for example, if the other party feels that your ability is too weak, it will naturally come to you to settle accounts.
If it is too strong, there are two possibilities, one is to scare it away from afar, and the other is to provoke it. Of course, the situation of angering it is still very small, after all, it is not easy to cultivate some spiritual power, and no one is willing to do these loss-making transactions.
And this kind of thing can also be faked, for example, I can use Satsuki's power to forge these marks, which means the same as the blind man can feel Satsuki's presence by my side.
I thought I couldn't have met a more powerful feminine thing than Satsuki in my life.,I'm saying that I'll stay for a few days anyway and won't bother it for too long.,I guess that thing shouldn't be so stingy, right? It's good to do the landlord's best or something.
Later, I picked a stone to engrave every meter or so, and these stones were naturally no match for the Moon Devouring Sword, and the white debris scattered like chalk dust.
The color is similar to the white milk walls in the cave, so I wonder if these green layers are covered with fossil-like stones.
And if these are really fossils, does that mean that the island itself does not exist, but a large animal died, and the place where I stood was actually one of its bones!
