Chapter 20: Xi'er's Dedication
The sun rose in the early morning, and after Lin Xian'er's careful care, Zhang Xi'er woke up, but her body was still very weak.
I went to the beach again to pick some coconuts, and when I came back, I saw Zhang Xi'er leaning against the mouth of the cave, and Wang Yan feeding her fish soup.
Zhang Xi'er saw that I was back and wanted to stand up, so I put down the coconut and said to her, "You are still very weak now, take a good rest." ”
"Brother Lu Yuan, thank you, if it weren't for you and Sister Xian'er, I would ...... now" Zhang Xi'er was about to cry as she said that.
I comforted Zhang Xi'er and said, "Okay, as long as we work together, we will definitely be able to leave the desert island." ”
Zhang Xi'er nodded at me seriously and said, "Brother Lu Yuan, I believe in you!" ”
Jiang Dandan on the side snorted coldly.
"Lu Yuan, the food will be eaten up soon, you must find food as soon as possible."
Jiang Dandan's tone was very similar to an order, and Wang Yan and the others glanced at Jiang Dandan in disgust.
I smiled, as long as Jiang Dandan doesn't make trouble and doesn't get nervous, it's easy to say.
I walked up to Xi'er and rubbed her head and said, "I'm going to dig out the bird's eggs today, and I'll make more of them for you this time." ”
Zhang Xi'er's little face turned red directly.
"Brother Lu Yuan, be careful."
"Hmm."
Just do it, Lin Xian'er stayed to take care of the frail Zhang Xi'er, and I, Wang Yan, Xia Lan, and Jiang Dandan took the vine rope and climbed to the top of the cliff.
Originally, Jiang Dandan didn't want to work, but as soon as I said that I wouldn't have to eat tonight if I didn't work, she came honestly.
When everything was ready, I began to climb down, this time I felt much more relaxed than the last time, I took forty-three eggs to give up, and I didn't feel much tired until I got back to the top of the cliff.
After lunch at noon, I took my weapon and prepared to go farther away to hunt, Wang Yan collected flat dan fruit around, Xia Lan and Lin Xian'er collected fuel, Jiang Dandan would only look for clams, and Zhang Xi'er stayed to guard the fire.
Lighters are now as much as possible if they can be dispensed with.
When I came back, I picked up a few flints, and by rubbing them with a saber, I would produce sparks, and I would put some grass on them, and the fire would soon be ignited. Xia Lan also found a wood that is very resistant to burning, and now everything is developing in a good direction.
In the evening I came back with two hares and three golden pheasants, and Wang Yan and the others had already started cooking. With an axe, hammer and chisel, I made two more stone pots in my free time.
After eating, I plan to catch sturgeon tomorrow, and while the sturgeon swim is not over, I plan to stock up on smoked fish as much as possible, and wait for two days to make a salt pan, and people can't afford not to eat salt.
I discussed with Wang Yan and Xia Lan, and the two of them completely agreed with my idea, this time we decided to catch a little more, Lin Xian'er wanted to stay and take care of Zhang Xi'er, Jiang Dandan was unwilling to go, and it would be the three of us tomorrow.
With my next plan in mind, I found myself unable to sleep.
The moon is round tonight, and I'm ready to climb to the top of the cliff to see the sea.
I sat down on a rock, took out the cigarette that Xia Lan gave me, then took out the lighter and lit it, I took a sharp puff and spit out a puff of turbid smoke at the moon.
Suddenly, Zhang Xi'er's voice came from behind me: "Brother Lu Yuan." ”
I turned my head to see Zhang Xi'er standing behind me panting.
"Why did you get up?"
Zhang Xi'er smiled stupidly, and she said, "Sister Xia Lan said that you might be here, so I'll come up and take a look." ”
I was stunned for a moment, Xia Lan knew that I was here?
Zhang Xi'er sat down beside me, she lifted her glasses and said, "Brother Lu Yuan, you are really good at picking places, the scenery here is so beautiful." ”
Looking at her dumbfounded, I couldn't help but rub her head.
"It's windy here, and your body hasn't recovered yet, so go down." As I spoke, I extinguished the cigarette in my hand.
Zhang Xi'er stuck out her tongue at me dissatisfied: "No, Brother Lu Yuan~"
Zhang Xi'er suddenly snorted, which made me shudder, "What are you doing?" ”
Zhang Xi'er smiled at me, and she took off her glasses.
I was stunned at this moment, Zhang Xier's thick glasses frame was so beautiful when I took it off, it really amazed me.
"Brother Lu Yuan, do you think I'm good-looking?" Zhang Xi'er looked at me with a grin.
I nodded vigorously, and Zhang Xi'er smiled even more happily.
Suddenly, Zhang Xi'er threw herself into my arms, and she said, "Brother Lu Yuan, Sister Xia Lan told me everything, and I have been thinking about it for a long time, I think what Sister Xia Lan said is very reasonable." ”
I frowned and asked Xi'er, "What did Xia Lan tell you!" ”
Unexpectedly, Xi'er pressed her index finger to my mouth, and she said softly, "Don't ask, okay?" Tonight Xi'er is yours. ”
