Chapter 41: The Wild Man Calls the Thunderstorm (for the 747JumboJet crown)
Naturally, I didn't dare to move, there are few knives in the last days that have not been stained with corpse fluid, and if they break a little skin, they will be wasted, since this person said that he would not kill me, I will calm down and see what he is going to do.
"Are you ......" As soon as I spoke, the man behind me interrupted rudely, "Don't speak!" I ask you to answer! ”
"Uh, okay." I whispered, damn it, it's really not gentlemanly, and then I started to miss Adam, how polite people are!
"You're new to the island? How many people? Who? The man asked in a low voice.
"Yesterday, man, have we seen each other before? Didn't offend you, did I? "Actually, I don't know the bottom of my heart, I just cleaned up a gang of women in Ocean City, and I'm really not sure if this man is one of those people who went to the island to seek revenge.
"You don't talk nonsense!" The man had a bad attitude, "Answer my question!" How many people are there, and who are they? ”
"Well, there are fifty or sixty of us, men, women, old people, and children."
"I'm asking what you used to do! What men, women and children. The man was not satisfied with my answer, he was very annoyed, and he tightened his arms around me, and I immediately choked.
"I can't get angry...... I grabbed his big thick arm, and secretly lamented in my heart, after practicing for so long, I thought I was invincible, but a woman is a woman after all, and a man can strangle me with one arm.
His thick arm finally loosened, and I took a few breaths, "We are just a group of ordinary people, who get together to take care of each other after the end of the world, and have everything, basically part-time jobs, as well as their own small traders, housewives, kindergarten teachers or something......"
I said that I would not tell him that we were soldiers anyway, and I would not tell him that we were soldiers.
"Have you seen the Colonel?" The man's arm loosened again, and his tone softened.
"See."
"What did he say?"
"You just can't eat and live for nothing, you have to work." I don't know what the hell this man wants to know, and I wonder why he didn't go into the community and run around this woods for what he was doing.
"You can promise not to tell anyone that you've seen me in the woods, and I'll let you go." After this man said this, I suddenly felt that he might not be a bad person.
"I can." What can I say at this time?
The big thick arm around my neck finally retreated, and the black sharp knife disappeared in front of me.
I turned my neck, which was a little stiff, and slowly turned away, and there was no one behind me.
"Hey!" I tried to shout into the woods, "Friend, can we still meet?" ”
……
Ignore me.
"Can I send you some pork dumplings in a moment?" I decided to tempt it with good food.
"Come on your own, send more!" His answer sounded in the forest not far away, haha, it turned out that he had not gone far, and he had hid behind a tree.
I carved inconspicuous marks with a knife on some of the trees I went back to, so that I could find them later, and when I met my mother and them, I found that I had picked enough wild vegetables, and we went back to the villa together.
I really wanted to tell my friends about it right away, but I held back, not because of the promise to that guy, the promise of being held by the knife can not be counted, my only worry is that if the partners know about this person, I am afraid that they will not be relieved to let me go and meet him alone, and once the others enter the forest, that person will definitely know immediately, and it will be difficult to dig him out again.
I swallowed this secret for the first time as I watched my friends who were busy chopping meat and washing vegetables, and I was very interested in that man, because he knew the Colonel, and I felt that he must have known more than a half.
The dumplings are out of the pot! Everyone was so happy to eat, I don't know if they came from the fragrance or came to visit, but the fourteenth brother and Iitaro came.
Since they are guests, my parents warmly invited them to eat pork dumplings that had just come out of the pot, and the two of them were scalded, and they shouted vigorously, fragrant! It's so fragrant! Much better than those seafood!
While they were only interested in eating wildly, I quietly found a small stainless steel basin, filled it with dumplings, took a slightly larger basin and buckled it upside down, sneaked out of the room with my arms, looked around and no one noticed, and trotted away in the woods.
Following the mark I had made, I quickly returned to the old tree where the man had appeared, and it was empty, but I believed that the man was nearby.
"Friend!" I shouted into the woods, "The dumplings are here, eat them while they're hot, and they'll be lumpy in a while." ”
"Just yourself? Didn't tell anyone, did you? "Ha, he's really waiting for something delicious and hasn't left.
"Of course! Can my family ask if they can bring me over on their own? I comforted him, I was really afraid that he would say, "Put down the dumplings and leave quickly, don't look back." Such bloody words.
Fortunately, this person is not so stinky and has no conscience, and he is finally willing to slowly walk out from behind a thick tree.
If it weren't for the camouflage uniform on him, I would have thought I had met a wild man! My hair and beard are long enough to be braided! It's a mess! Neither age nor appearance can be seen at all.
The wild man was very tall, more than 1.8 meters tall, and his physique was strong, and I glanced at his big thick arms that strangled my neck, all of them were healthy meat, and his skin was as black as if he had crawled out of the coal mountain.
When he got closer, I remembered the small basin I was holding, quickly lifted the lid on it, and handed the dumplings over.
The wild man stared at me tightly, reached out and picked one from the basin and handed it to me, "You eat one." ”
I didn't react at the time, I thought I was polite to me, and said with a smile, "I just ate these are your ......"
"You eat!" The wild man suddenly became fierce, Nima's mood changed like the weather, but I immediately understood that he was afraid that I would poison him in the dumplings!
"I'm so vigilant~" I reluctantly took the dumplings he handed over, with two black fingerprints printed on them, this, can I eat this?
"Shall I eat stuffing?" I asked him by pointing to the black paw print, and he nodded, so I tore open the dumpling skin, dug out the meat filling, put it in my mouth, chewed and ate it, and the wild man's expression finally softened.
Then he grabbed the dumplings with his hands and stuffed them into his mouth one by one, without seeing how he chewed them, and after a while, there was no one left in a small pot of dumplings.
This guy is not a savage, he is a starving ghost, ironclad......
"Xiexie you, my name is Thunderstorm, what's your name?" The name of the savage was exchanged by me for a pot of dumplings, and it was worth it!
"My name is Duoduo, where do you live? Why, how did it cause this...... "I pointed to my own head, who would not cut his hair or shave his beard, even if our bearded god Arhat is not as sloppy as a thunderstorm~."
Thunderstorm wiped the oil on his beard, "I live in the woods, and you're the first to know." ”
I was stunned, "There are a lot of empty houses on the island, you, do you have any habits?" ”
Thunderstorm suddenly laughed, it was not easy to see him laughing through his messy hair and beard, "I have lived in the woods of the island since the end of the world. Because, I can't let the colonels know that I'm alive. ”
I felt a pang in my heart, it was really not that simple!
"But you just have to live well, don't get into trouble, don't inquire more, knowing too much is not good for you." The thunderstorm was very cunning, and seeing that I was curious, it directly cut off my thoughts of getting to the bottom of it.
Well, his name has already been set out, is it far from more news? I comforted myself and said to him, "The villa we live in is not far from here, and it seems that it is not easy for you to find food in the woods, so since we are destined to meet each other, we can be regarded as friends, how about I come over and bring you food back every day in the future?" ”
I thought he would readily agree, but he was not happy to have the initiative to deliver food? Unexpectedly, this guy shook his head and shook his hands again, "No, no, no, you come too many times, it will attract their attention, just come once a week, you can bring me scissors next time, this hair is too long and it is really troublesome." ”
I found that dealing with thunderstorms was more passive, and I basically had to follow his rules, so I had to agree.
So I made an appointment a week later in the evening to deliver food and scissors.
When I returned to the villa with the empty basin, I found that everyone had already packed up the dishes and chopsticks and were looking for me.
"Who are you sending dumplings to?" Dad took the empty basin in my hand and asked casually.
I said weakly, "There is a small couple with a child at the corner of the street in front, I will send some to his family, so that the child can have a meal of haode." ”
I'm talking nonsense! But my father actually believed it, and the old man was easy to deceive.
"Next time, I'll make something delicious, and you can send some more." Dad happily went to the kitchen, this kind old man.
I breathed a sigh of relief, and when I turned around, I was startled by the fact that Brother Fourteen and Iitaro were both clubbed behind me.
"Why are you two here?" I guess they didn't come here to eat dumplings, there should be something.
The fourteenth brother put his hand behind his back and smiled, "The dumplings are so fragrant!" I didn't expect you to have pork. ”
"Aren't there carnivorous farms on this island?" I just wanted to ask the aborigines of the island.
"Yes, but," Brother Fourteen paused, "only for the military." We can't eat it. ”
Now I was stunned again, the word "special offering" is not unfamiliar, and it was not an uncommon thing before the end of the world, but now I hear this and my heart is a little weird.
"It's not just pigs, cows, sheep, chickens, and ducks that are all raised, but the number is smaller." Iitaro added, his dark eyes shining brightly, and a hint of indignation flashed on his face.
"We're here for a piece of advice." The fourteenth brother finally got down to business, "Be careful to stand in line." ”
"What line? Can you elaborate? I was confused, so I naturally asked.
But the fourteenth brother looked mysterious, "The secret of heaven must not be revealed, if you talk too much, there will be more trouble, so let's realize it yourself." ”
After saying that, the two of them walked away, the corners of my mouth twitched, and a meal of big pork dumplings was exchanged for four words: Be careful to stand in line? Wrong! They originally came to tell these four words, so shouldn't they give more advice after eating dumplings?
Talking about half of the gods is the most annoying!
