Seeing Lin Youcheng add a few thick branches to the bonfire, he said:

"Let the campfire burn like this, not only to keep warm and scare away the beasts, but also to serve as a distress signal to make it easier for others to find us."

"Guess how long it will take them to find us?" Marin asked suddenly.

"Maybe." Lin Youcheng lowered his head and thought for a moment:

"The point is that we don't know where it is, and we don't know how far away we are. If we were still on an island close to Toei, they should be able to find us in a week. But it would be bad if you got to the Pacific Ocean, where there are thousands of islands that will probably never be discovered. ”

Lin Youcheng was really worried about this possibility, but when he saw that Ma Lin was listening to his analysis, his face was very calm, as if he was not worried at all. He only thought that Marin was reserved and quiet by nature, so he continued:

"If that's the case, we'll have to go back on our own."

He turned to look at the woods behind him, and said:

"Anyway, there are a lot of trees here, so we can make a raft, bring plenty of food and water, and follow the tide to the shore and go back to the civilized world by ourselves."

Of course, this is the worst-case scenario, after all, a simple raft is very dangerous in rough seas.

Staring at Lin Youcheng's firm back in front of the bonfire, Ma Lin was also full of confidence.

saw Lin Youcheng turn around and smile at her:

"Don't worry, I'll definitely bring you back!"

Ma Lin was stunned for a moment, and then laughed softly, and a pair of crystal bright phoenix eyes clasped tightly on Lin Youcheng's body.

Catching a glimpse of Ma Lin's smile like a hundred flowers blooming, Lin Youcheng unconsciously felt a wave in his heart, and his irritability and worry were also diluted a lot, and his mood immediately calmed down. He sat down beside Marin, looked into the distance, and asked her:

"Miss Ma, when you were a child, you must have been very strict in your family, right?"

Marin stared, wondering why he suddenly asked.

"Because I see that even if you are in this wild place, you have disappeared and have not lost your reserve." Lin Youcheng hugged his head and looked at the night sky in the distance, and talked eloquently:

"In the deceitful civilized world, everyone has a mask of hypocrisy on their faces, but here there is no need to pay too much attention, people are going to starve to death, what else can this etiquette and that etiquette be? I think the most important thing in being a human being is to be happy. Eating is originally a human instinct, if even this instinct has to be added to so many shackles, then what is the meaning of life? ”

Ma Lin looked at Lin Youcheng with beautiful eyes, and he also wanted to live the life he said in his heart.

The two chatted for a while, and Lin Youcheng also saw the tiredness on Ma Lin's face, so he said lightly:

"You're tired too, let's rest early."

"Hmm." Ma Lin nodded, and when he saw the simple wooden bed that Lin Youcheng had built, his heart couldn't help but warm, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously pulled up a smile.

The night sky of the island, the stars are shining, Ma Lin slept on the wooden bed like this, because of the thin clothes on his body, Lin Youcheng also brought her a few broad leaves to keep warm, fortunately this is in the tropics, although it is cooler at night, but it is not too cold, and the climate is quite pleasant.

Lin Youcheng slept not far from Marin, although the distance was short, the sight of the two was blocked by the night and leaves, and they couldn't see each other.

However, in such a quiet environment, they could hear each other's movements, and even hear each other's breathing.

Lying on the wooden bed, despite being physically and mentally exhausted by the shipwreck, Ma Lin couldn't fall asleep for a long time, and his mind kept coming up with the scene of Lin Youcheng never giving up on himself in the strong wind and waves, and in order to protect himself, he even used his body to resist the sharp reef.

"I won't leave you! I'll live with you! In that long drift with no end in sight, how many times, whenever Ma Lin couldn't hold on, Lin Youcheng's confident and firm words would always ring in his ears.

Unconsciously, tears were already rolling in Ma Lin's eyes, she recalled the dead Gaolat, and Chen Guofu who died with the enemy in the ancient kingdom of Yamatai, fortunately, Lin Youcheng on another simple bed couldn't see herself...

"Bang bang."

Marlin, who was on the bed, suddenly heard a strange sound.

It was a very slight, but very clear, different from the chirping of insects and birds in the distant woods, but it sounded right next to it.

Ma Lin quickly concluded that this voice was from Lin Youcheng, and wondered what was wrong with him? Is it to tease yourself?

After all, the lonely man and widow are on this desert island, and she can also feel that Lin Youcheng's feelings for her seem to be not limited to that ethereal friendship, so Ma Lin is really a little worried that Lin Youcheng will do something inferior to a beast.

"Lin Youcheng, what's wrong?" Ma Lin asked softly, but Lin Youcheng next to him did not respond.

The strange sound continued to sound.

Ma Lin frowned: "Lin Youcheng, I'm going to be angry if you do this again." ”

"Lin Youcheng, don't you want to be like this. We can't do that, you know that. Marin persuaded with some trepidation:

"I know you've been very nice to me, and you've saved my life this time, but you can't just take advantage of me, right, I don't really like it..."

In the dark night, Lin Youcheng didn't seem to hear Ma Lin's words, and the sound of "boom" became denser and clearer, Ma Lin was really a little scared, worried that Lin Youcheng insisted on going on like this, afraid that he would defile him, so he gritted his teeth and said:

"Lin Youcheng, I really don't like men, I'm only interested in women."

However, Lin Youcheng still didn't reply, but the sound of "boom" was like a firecracker exploding in Ma Lin's ears, which made her scalp a little numb.

After a while, Ma Lin finally couldn't help it, and sat up a little angrily, ready to see what the hell Lin Youcheng was doing!

When I came to Lin Youcheng's bed in a few steps, I saw him curled up in a pile of broad leaves, and the sound of "boom" was indeed made by him.

Ma Lin couldn't help but get angry in his heart, and was about to open his mouth to reprimand, but found that Lin Youcheng's eyes were closed, and his body was shivering slightly, and the "bang" sound was made by his unconsciously chattering teeth.

Ma Lin finally noticed that something was wrong, and hurriedly leaned down to inspect Lin Youcheng, with the help of the faint light of the bonfire, he saw Lin Youcheng's face was blue and white, his eyes were closed and unconscious, Ma Lin reached out and touched his forehead, and found that his forehead was very hot, and it was clear that he was having a fever.

"It's cold, it's cold..."Lin Youcheng muttered unconsciously.

Only then did Ma Lin know that he had misunderstood Lin Youcheng, he did not have bad intentions, but his teeth chattered because of the coldness all over his body, and he had already passed out.

At this moment, Ma Lin knew how shameful it was to live the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and he felt even more guilty about Lin Youcheng in his heart.

"Lin Youcheng, what do you think?" Marlin shook him gently.

"It's cold, it's cold" Lin Youcheng seemed to be stunned, and kept repeating two words.

Ma Lin knew that it must be because of Lin Youcheng's back injury that caused his body to become inflamed, and his body was very weak after being soaked in the sea water for a long time, so he had a high fever as soon as the cool breeze blew.
