Chapter 141, Red Monster Worm
I whispered, "Is it the next stop, who knows, I just know that this island is not so simple, especially the person I saw in the jungle, it is even more weird, I have been trying to find a chance to tell you that that person is a shriveled and thin old man, and... And his eyes are actually very similar to the cat-eye man in black, very similar, except for the color, they are almost identical. ”
As soon as I talked about the old man, I felt chills all over my body, and I unconsciously looked around again, and I always felt a pair of cat's eyes staring at us nearby, and this feeling has been strong for a while.
Jiao Ba glanced at me at this time, and said with a heavy face, "The reason why I said that it is difficult to leave this island, because this is it, it is the mysterious person you said, he is likely to have been near us all along, I remember when I first landed on the island, I told you that this island is very evil, and the corpse is very heavy, and now, this feeling is even more serious, and I feel that there is a dead man's breath all around." ”
After Jiao Ba's words were finished, I felt a little trembling all over my body, I swallowed my saliva and said, "This island is really weird, especially ......"
When I said this, I couldn't say anything later, because I saw a person standing on the other side of the fire, and this person, as if it was that... The shriveled old man with his hair disheveled.
Under the firelight, his cat's eyes shone faintly, and he was about ten meters away from the fire, standing on the edge of the entrance to the jungle, staring at me with a dead gaze, and on his body, there was a black gas, the smell of rotting dead people.
I took two steps back sharply, and almost fell to the ground, Jiao Bayi grabbed me and said, "Brother Yi, what's wrong with you?" Kindness? What does it smell? It smells so bad. ”
I stared at the old man, pointed in the direction of the fire, and stammered, "Yes... It was the shriveled old man. ”
When Jiao Ba heard this, he turned his head and hurriedly looked, but the moment he turned his head, I saw with my own eyes that the shriveled old man, with an inhuman speed, instantly hid in the jungle and disappeared.
Jiao Ba turned around and said, "Nobody." ”
I glanced at him and said in a stiff tone, "He's gone, so fast I can't imagine it." ”
I don't know what the hell this damn old man is trying to do, why he's following us all the time, and why he's so fast, it's the fastest guy I've ever seen, but he's a skinny old man, and that's really unacceptable, because that's not what humans can do.
"It seems that the old man you are talking about is really a trouble, Brother Yi, so what should we do next?" Jiao Ba asked me.
Without looking back, I said, "Leave him alone, since it has been decided, let's go according to the previous plan, build a ship early tomorrow morning, and leave here." ”
Although I said this, I had another idea in my heart, if this was really the exact location of the next stop, the cat-eyed man in black would not let us leave so easily, and the ninja man in black would probably stop us as well, so we could only wait and see what happened.
After calling Junzi and Changshan up, Jiao Ba and I fell asleep around the fire, but I slept unsteadily all night, I always felt that the strange old man was watching me in front of me, this night, it was too tormenting my spirit
The next morning, we started our shipbuilding program, but for some reason, the sun was barely visible on the island, and the day was overcast, and there were always dark clouds overhead, as if it could rain at any time.
In order to save time, I had to make use of everybody, and every source around me, and we first burned a few handicap sized trees along the roots of the trees with fire, because we didn't have an axe or anything like that, so we had to do that.
Then use four large trees to make the bottom frame of a raft, each tree should be more than ten meters long, and the four trees make a rectangular raft frame, and then fix it with ropes around it.
Then we made a raft at the bottom of some trees of the same length, but a little thinner, and we had nothing, and we had to use ropes to fix them, but we didn't have enough ropes, and we couldn't use them all, so we had to keep some of them as a backup.
In order to save ropes, I asked Junko to take someone to cut down the branches, the longer the branches, the better, and then peel off the bark of the branches, three barks and a rope, so that we can save some of our sources.
Then we used six thick trees to reinforce the raft on both sides, three on each side, so that it could play a certain protective role, and we also used the remaining four oxygen cylinders to empty the remaining bit of air, and after the valves were closed, they were tied around the raft, and then we used our cut feet to tie them to the wood to make a row.
On the top of the raft, the bifurcated trees are used to make the support of the oars, three on one side, there are six in total, so that at least three people can paddle at the same time, and then in the middle of the raft, use wood to build a triangular frame, as far as possible, to shelter from the wind and rain.
If it were one person to do these things, it would have taken at least half a month to complete, but there were many of us, and after four days of continuous fighting, this simple big raft was completed.
The next step is to prepare the water source, the food can be eaten raw sea fish, but it is not possible without the water source, we got a lot of the baby-faced fruit, cut a small hole in each one, so that once the contents are drunk, it can also be used to hold rainwater, ready to drift on the sea at any time.
The big guys are tired these days, Jenny and Li Xin are also tired, this is a very difficult task, but fortunately in the end we have completed it, it is half of the victory, as long as we rush out of this sea, find other ships, or board any piece of land, we will be completely victorious.
The raft was parked on the shore on the left, and Jenny looked at the raft in front of her and said, "Zhongyi, I didn't expect you to be quite good, and you really did it." ”
I smiled and said, "It's just a coincidence, the raft has been built, but it's still unknown whether it will leave alive." ”
Mai Lao patted me on the shoulder and said, "We've experienced so many winds and Langs, so there should be no problem." ”
I smiled helplessly and said, "Hopefully, we'll get out of here early tomorrow morning." ”
When night fell, we sat around the fire, giggling and saying some nonsensical words, it seemed that everyone's spirit was more relaxed, but in my heart, there was always a feeling of unsteadiness.
That strange and mysterious old man, could he be hiding in a corner and observing us at this time? I'd love to find out who he is, but he's leaving here tomorrow and it's all over.
Tonight I and Shunzi a post, the personnel were disrupted, the time to stand guard was also rearranged, I was on the last shift, because I was too tired these days, I lay down early to rest, so as to prepare for tomorrow's departure.
In my sleep, I vaguely seemed to hear someone's cry for help, "Zhongyi, get up quickly." "It's not loud, but it seems to be lingering in my ears.
It was supposed to be a dream, and I rolled over, and was about to go back to sleep when suddenly, a sharp roar, cut through the entire island.
I was instantly woken up by this roar, I stood up suddenly, and the others were all awakened by this voice, the big guy quickly got up, Jiao Ba sat up violently and shouted, "Damn, what's wrong?" ”
"Ah~~~ help me." Another scream of pain, by the light of the fire, a few meters in front of me, I saw Lao Wang fall to the ground, his mouth screamed non-stop, he kept rolling back and forth on the ground, and the screams kept coming.
Mai Lao and Xiaohuzi were surrounding him, and I didn't know what was going on, I didn't even think about it, and rushed over with an arrow step, "Mai Lao, what's wrong?" ”
At this time, Mai Lao and Xiaohuzi slowly retreated, and he shouted without looking back, "Zhongyi, don't come here, run quickly." ”
But at this time I had already rushed over, and when I saw Lao Wang who had fallen to the ground, my brain almost didn't explode, and I was so frightened that I almost screamed, Lao Wang was lying not far from the shore, and his body was full of holes.
The whole person was basically rotten, and the blood was flowing out one by one along the holes in his body, and the whole head was blurred with flesh and blood, and there were only two large holes left in the eyes of the eyes.
Originally, his very fat body, but now it is so thin that there is almost skin and bones left, at this time, Lao Wang, no longer struggled, he lay on the ground and did not move, not even convulsions, at first glance he was dead.
At the same time, I saw that the ground around Lao Wang's corpse was covered with red things, and because I had just woken up, my eyes were still a little blurry, and I couldn't see what it was.
But after a few seconds, I was dumbfounded, completely dumbfounded, this red thing was actually a strange kind of bug, these bugs, each the size of a walnut, had an oval body.
They are like centipedes, their bodies are covered with tentacles, and in the foremost part, there are two large mouths like pincers, which are constantly moving back and forth, and the most fatal thing is that this group of strange insects has been densely spread all over the shore, and it makes people's scalps explode when they look at it.
Just when I was stunned, suddenly, a bunch of these red insects crawled out of Lao Wang's body, some crawled out of his eye sockets, and were eating his body back and forth
