Chapter 2: The Sun That Never Sets

"What's so nice about the sun?" Although Xu Ding muttered, he still looked up cooperatively: "Isn't it just the sun?" What's the problem? ”

"We went to the sea at noon. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" Han Yu pointed to the sun in the sky and said, "And now, it's still noon?" ”

"That's how long we've been in a coma, there's nothing to keep track of here, maybe we slept all night, it should be the next day!" Xu Ding held a clean branch in his hand and played with the abalone that were burning and gurgling, and said nonchalantly.

Is that the case? Han Yu thought suspiciously, but suddenly he was really ridiculous, and he actually thought that there was a sun in this world that would not set.

When he saw that Xu Ding was seriously burning the abalone, he looked left and right boredly, and just happened to see a coconut tree not too tall not far away, which was full of fruit.

Han Yu is a good tree climber, and he climbed the coconut tree, which was about one story high, and broke off four or five coconuts with his bare hands.

When he returned to Xu Ding with a bundle of coconuts, the abalone happened to be out of the "pot", but fortunately, Han Yu's iron hook was not lost, because the coconut he picked was also knocked open by this hook.

Eating abalone with coconut water and coconut meat is really a strange luxury, the abalone that is directly put into the fire retains the original fresh fragrance and tenderness, without adding any seasoning but the taste is sweet and rich, the abalone meat shrinks after the fire is grilled, not only bites the Q bomb, and the juice that flows out is also delicious.

After eating, Han Yu asked, "Ah Ding, why did you sleep at the entrance of the cave when I woke up?" ”

Xu Ding wiped his mouth and said, "Oh, when I woke up, I found that it was dark all around, and I was afraid!" I ran all the way out, but I was tired and sleepy and found that I couldn't go back, so I just slept again. ”

Han Yu "......" dare to love your old heart so much, and you will be at peace when you come?

Han Yu frowned, they had to find a way to get out of here, this island was too small and there weren't many resources, if they couldn't get out of here, it would be difficult to survive.

Walking around the island, it was not so much an island as a larger reef, Han Yu secretly wrote down the location of the only few coconut trees on the island, you must know that on this island, the coconut trees may be their only source of drinking water, the sea water is not drinkable, and he does not expect such a small island to have a fresh water source.

If only they could go to another island next to it.

"Ah Yu, do you know where this is?" Xu Ding followed Han Yu for a walk, but still didn't find a familiar place.

Han Yu had been thinking about something since just now: "Ah Ding, you said that we were caught in the same whirlpool and came to the same island again, is there any connection between this?" ”

"Coincidence, right? The same currents bring us to the same place. Xu Ding scratched his head and said, but he couldn't explain why the two woke up and were in the cave.

"I want to go to that island, where we won't survive long, and if all the coconuts on the trees are consumed, we'll die of dehydration." Han Yu frowned, they had to find a way to save themselves, instead of waiting for an illusory rescue here.

Xu Ding nodded, and he also realized the seriousness of the matter.

If they want to go over there, they will have to make some preparations, at least tomorrow.

Han Yu went into the water to catch about two dozen abalones, while Xu Ding was responsible for cleaning them and laying them on the sun-scorched rocks, intending to dry them and use them as reserve food.

There is no bamboo on this island, so they can't make a floating bamboo raft, if they want to leave the island, they should have to swim through, there is an old saying called "look at the mountain and run the dead", and here is the same, you can't calculate the distance between the two islands just by looking at the eyes.

Swimming consumes physical strength, but the human body has a limit, once it exceeds this limit and there is no place to rest and recover halfway, then they can only watch themselves sink to the bottom of the sea from exhaustion.

Han Yu thought about it, and suddenly had an idea when he looked at the coconut shell on the side!

When ripe, the coconut fruit with dry skin will fall from the coconut tree, and they found a lot of it when they searched the island before, because there is not much juice in this coconut, so they didn't care, but it is very useful to think about it now.

Because these withered coconut fruits can easily float on the water. That's why the coconut can drift at sea for a long time, then run aground on a small island in a suitable environment, and then quickly take root and grow.

They are known as the ocean travelers in nature.

A pile of dried abalone food, a floating island of dried coconuts, and five or six fresh coconuts were the two of them for tomorrow.

Ready for all this, the two of them went back to the mouth of the cave and rested, perhaps very tired, and fell asleep after a while.

"Tick ...... Tick ......"

Han Yu was woken up by the cold, he didn't know how long he had been sleeping, he only felt that his body was getting colder and colder, and there was the sound of running water around him.

A spirit, Han Yu woke up and found that his surroundings were dark, his first feeling was that it was dark, but when he looked up at the sky, he didn't find a star, and the environment around him gave him a sense of familiarity.

"Caves?" This thought suddenly popped into his mind, and Han Yu only felt a chill stand on end, as if he was here last time he woke up.

He quickly stood up and wanted to go outside, but accidentally stepped on a soft object.

"Don't buy it, who steps on Lao Tzu!" A painful roar came, pulling Han Yu back from his fear, and Han Yu asked tentatively, "Ah Ding?" ”

"It's not who Lao Tzu is! You don't sleep in the middle of the night, why do you step on Lao Tzu!? Xu Ding covered his stepped hand, kept sighing, and complained.

"No, aren't we resting at the mouth of the cave? This is deep in the cave! Did you kid deliberately get me in while I was asleep? Han Yu was also angry, since he came here, he always felt that everything was wrong.

"I ...... I don't! Hey? Really, how did we get back here? Xu Ding was stunned by Han Yu's question, and only felt a chill on his back.

Feeling that things were too weird, the two of them hurriedly got up and ran out of the cave.

It was noon again, and the sun was shining on the earth, and everything they had prepared before falling asleep was still there, which made Han Yu breathe a sigh of relief, but he still felt uncomfortable.

It was as if they had gradually lost their sense of time unconsciously, just like now, Han Yu didn't know how long he had been on this isolated island

"We need to get out of here." Han Yu said with a solemn expression, the uneasiness in his heart became deeper and deeper, and in the end, he almost dragged Xu Ding to the shore.

Reaching out and touching it, the abalone had been dried and hard, and if they really slept and woke up one night, it would be the next day, and it would be impossible for these abalone to be dried to this extent, unless...... Outside, they were exposed to the scorching midday sun.

Xu Ding also stepped forward to touch these abalones, although his reaction was a little sluggish, but he was not stupid, he glanced at Han Yu in horror, he only felt that under the scorching sun at noon, an eerie coolness came up behind him instantly.

Things have gone beyond their realization, and there is big trouble.

Han Yu packed up the abalone, skewered it into a bunch and put it on the coconut floating island with fresh coconuts tied firmly, they found a few strands of tough vines and twisted them into ropes, connected their waists to the floating island, and pushed it into the water without hesitation, and followed.

The buoyancy of the floating islands connected by dried coconuts as a whole is amazing, the two of them put one hand on it left and one right, and the other hand moved forward with a few strokes, saving a lot of effort, Han Yu believed that if he was given enough dried coconuts, he could make a coconut raft that was enough to carry the two of them, and escape from this place to find their way home.

Today's wave was small, so they set sail smoothly.

Fortunately, he made all the preparations, because the journey was really long, Han Yu estimated the time in his heart, and after about an hour of swimming, he only advanced less than one-fifth of the way.

After swimming for an hour continuously, although with the assistance of floating islands, they were tired enough, and just when they were about to take a break, Xu Ding suddenly felt that something was pulling his feet, and he only had time to let out "Ah! He was pulled under the water.

Luckier than the last time he fell into the whirlpool, this time Han Yu quickly noticed his abnormality, and quickly swam to Xu Ding's side and dived into the water along the vine rope to find him, Han Yu clearly saw that Xu Ding was struggling to swim to the surface of the water, but his left leg was weirdly straight, as if he was being pulled by something invisible.

Han Yu's scalp was numb, but he still swam to Xu Ding's side to help him, and when his hand just touched Xu Ding, the strange pull disappeared in an instant.

Xu Ding quickly swam to the surface of the water, gasped for a few breaths, and his face, which was bruised from lack of oxygen, eased up.

"Damn, what the hell is this place?" Xu Ding couldn't help but scold.

Han Yu's face was also gloomy, the scene just now had been repeating in his mind, Xu Ding's weirdly stretched left leg made him unable to figure it out, obviously he saw that there was nothing there.

Before the two of them could catch their breath, Xu Ding felt something grab him again, but this time it was his right leg.

"I ...... Before the words behind the grass ...... could be spoken, Xu Ding was pulled into the water again, this time, Han Yu completely saw his situation in his eyes, and hurriedly reached out to pull it, just like last time, just as soon as he touched Xu Ding, Xu Ding felt that the pulling force disappeared again.

At this time, both of them understood why that thing was just attacking Xu Ding.

It must be something on Han Yu that makes that thing scruples, Han Yu looked for it, and in addition to the tattered clothes and iron hooks on his body, all that was left was ...... The sea charm hanging around the neck.
