Chapter 225: The Island of Eclipse (31) Confide
After discussion, it was finally decided that Lin Chang, Li Sheng, Yu Pu and Lu Haisheng would go and bring the raft back first, while Fu Lingjun, Fang Ruoxi, Chen Si and I would wait in the cave to take care of Lin Ya, and then consider where to find food when they returned.
I continued to wipe Lin Ya's body to help him cool down, and when I looked up, I saw Fu Lingjun standing at the entrance of the cave. Fang Ruoxi was resting beside her, and she could tell from the sound of her breathing that she was asleep. Chen Si sat on the other side, silently and without any superfluous movements.
、
There was a sound of footsteps, and I looked up to see that it was Fu Lingjun walking back from the entrance of the cave. She walked up to me and stopped for a few seconds, as if she felt that she should say something, but she didn't know how to get along with me, so she stood there for a while, picked up the empty water bottle next to me, and said.
"Well, I'll go outside and refill some water. I didn't know if the water in the lake was safe, so I dug some water out of the ground. ”
Knowing that Fu Lingjun has good intentions, and she is probably not used to being alone with me.
I nodded, "Then I'll trouble you, I still have unused water here, if it's troublesome, you can wait for Lu Haisheng and them to come back and let them dig it." ”
"It's okay, it's just a trifle." Fu Lingjun shook his head and didn't say anything more.
Watching Fu Lingjun's back disappear at the entrance of the cave, I only felt a complication in my heart, and sighed silently.
I've always thought that I was smart, writing other people's stories in words every day, and self-recognition to see through people's hearts. But lately, I've felt more and more that I haven't understood anything.
Is it because people's hearts are too complicated, or am I actually blind? I'd rather believe the latter.
I used to think that Fu Lingjun was a bad guy who still had a bottom line and a sense of justice, while Lu Haisheng was a bit short-tempered but affectionate and righteous, but now, these two views have changed.
Maybe I'm wrong, maybe there are good and bad things in the world, but I can't really see the eyes of others.
I haven't seen Fu Lingjun clearly, nor have I seen Lu Haisheng clearly.
I looked down at Lin Ya, who was unconscious, and changed a piece of fabric on his forehead. Maybe I haven't seen the forest cliff clearly, and I haven't seen anyone clearly.
All my words, actions, thoughts, and decisions are based on my perception of the state of my time, but that can easily be changed.
What's the use of thinking so much? It's just adding to the distress. Since you can't see clearly, let's think what you see is, and I just hope that when I can see clearly one day, I won't regret it too much.
"Don't leave!"
I heard Fu Lingjun suddenly let out an exclamation of my name, subconsciously touched the dagger on the side and held it tightly in his hand, looking in the direction of the cave entrance vigilantly and listening. However, all I heard was the sound of footsteps, and I couldn't tell from the frequency of the sound that there was only one person, and I didn't hear anything else strange.
What's going on? What danger did Fu Lingjun encounter? No, no, no. If you think about it, that sound just now seems more like a surprise? It shouldn't be in danger. Besides, all I could hear was Fu Lingjun's footsteps approaching the entrance of the cave
Just thinking about it, Fu Lingjun's figure appeared at the entrance of the cave, as if he was holding something in his arms. I was sure that she was alone, no other people or creatures, no danger.
"What's wrong?" I put the knife I was holding back to the side, looked at Fu Lingjun and asked.
As she spoke, Fu Lingjun had already run to my side, and I saw that she was holding a bunch of oval things in her arms.
"Look! This is what I just dug up outside! ”
Fu Lingjun said, placing a bunch of ellipses in her arms on the ground beside me. One of them was lowered by her and rolled towards me, all the way to my lap.
I reached out and picked it up, it wasn't very heavy, and my fingertips could feel a slight bumpy texture, which seemed to be
"These are eggs?" I asked, somewhat uncertain.
Fu Lingjun nodded: "Yes!" That's right! It's the egg! I was digging to see if there were any of the bugs in the lake, and the bugs did, but they found the eggs in the bugs! ”
I looked at the eggs spread all over the ground, each egg was the size of my palm, slightly larger than a goose egg, and Fu Lingjun probably brought back about seven or eight eggs.
"Is this the eggs of those bugs? Probably not, right? Those bugs shouldn't be that big, right? Fu Lingjun said and picked up one to observe.
I shook my head, "It's not the eggs of those bugs, those bugs are small, and no matter how strange the creatures here are, they shouldn't be able to lay eggs hundreds of times their size." Did you just say it was dug up by the lake? ”
"Yes, it was dug up from the lake." Fu Lingjun nodded, "These eggs are not buried deeply, and they have not yet reached the position where they come out of the water, so they can be dug out easily." ”
"Oviparous non-mammals," I thought, "maybe the eggs of some kind of amphibian?" Something like a turtle? ”
"Can you eat it?" Fu Lingjun doesn't seem to care about what kind of creatures these eggs are, but more concerned about whether these eggs can be our food source.
"I guess it should be." I said with some uncertainty, "I don't think I've heard of any eggs that are poisonous, so I guess it's okay." Let's wait for Lu Haisheng and Yu Pu to come back and ask, I'm not sure. ”
Fu Lingjun nodded, and put down the egg in his hand, "If you can really eat it, then our food will not be a problem!" You don't see, there are many, many of these eggs in the beach outside, and they are definitely enough for us to eat! ”
"Really? That was a bonus. I smiled at Fu Lingjun, and I was very happy to think that there was so much food, "When Lu Haisheng and the others come back, let's see how to eat these eggs." ”
"Okay, then I'll go ahead and prepare the water, and then dig up some more eggs." Fu Lingjun nodded at me, stood up and walked out of the cave again.
After watching Fu Lingjun walk out, I re-wet the cloth in my hand and wiped Lin Ya's body on the side, looking at the egg at my feet and squinting. The egg had clearly been dug up, and it was covered with dirt, and I wiped it off with my hands, checking in to see what it looked like by the little light that came through the hole. The egg is grayish-white, plain, and has no patterns, which means that the egg is not poisonous, or indirectly, the creature that laid the egg is non-toxic.
I remembered how to see if an egg was double yellow - looking at the egg at a light source would give it a see-through effect, so I might be able to see what's inside the egg.
I picked up the egg with the flashlight and was about to check it when an unexpected voice came into my ears.
"I really hate you, you know?"
I was a little confused by this sudden sentence, and I didn't expect Chen Si to take the initiative to talk to me, so I turned my head to look at Chen Si a little blankly, "Huh? What did you say? ”
"I said." Chen Si stretched out from his original curled up position, bent one leg and one leg straight, put his arms on his knees, leaned back and looked up at me and said again, "I said I really hate you." ”
I was a little at a loss, and put down my hand holding the egg, my fingers rubbing unconsciously on the surface of the egg, "Can I ask why?" ”
"What, why?"
"Why do you hate me?"
"Why do you hate you?" Chen Si sneered, "Because everyone else likes you, I hate you." ”
I was stunned, what kind of reason is this? How many people like me? I don't feel that way.
"I'm sorry, did I misunderstand something?" I was a little confused, "You're saying you hate me because people like me?" ”
"Oh yes, you're not mistaken, I just hate you because of this." Chen Si's face was full of mocking smiles, with contempt and madness, "I hate you because I'm jealous." ”
Chen Si's words made me not know what to say, jealousy? What do I have to make her jealous?
"I'm not as beautiful as you, and I'm not as attractive as you, so why are you jealous of me?" I was puzzled and asked, "If you are jealous that others like me, aren't there many people who like you?" ”
"Like me? Heheheha! ”
Chen Si's smile slowly expanded from a sneer at the beginning, and finally became a smile with madness. I watched her smile as she covered her stomach and laughed so hard that tears overflowed, even though she was laughing, this smile did not make me feel happy or comfortable at all, but felt that this smile was very harsh and unpleasant.
She laughed for a while before she slowly stopped laughing, raised her hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then said, "What they like is not me, but this body." What they like is not Chen Si, but they like to sleep with Chen Si, understand? ”
I was stunned again, and for a moment I didn't know what to say. She also said something like this in Fairy Tale Forest, and I don't know how to answer.
"Why don't you speak? It seems that you don't understand. Chen Si adjusted his posture and leaned against the cave wall more relaxedly, "I don't think you understand, after all, people who like you like you like you themselves, not just thinking about sleeping with you." ”
I turned my head to look at Chen Si, she was giving me a strange feeling right now, as if she was a sign that something was about to happen
"I really don't understand." I wet the fabric in my hands, and looked at Chen Si by helping Lin Ya wipe his body, "Maybe you're too pessimistic?" ”
"Poof?" Chen Si seemed to hear some funny joke and shook his head, "You really live in a fairy tale." But yes, don't I just envy that you can live in a fairy tale, why can you live in a fairy tale? ”
I turned my head to look at her, but saw that she reached out and removed the fabric covering her mouth and nose, and was holding a cigarette and holding a lighter about to light the fire.
"Hey! No way! Can't ignite! ”
Boom –
Before I could finish speaking, Chen Si had already turned on the flame of the lighter. Probably because the nitric acid content in the air was not high enough to that point, the fire flickered in the dark, and the danger I expected such as an explosion did not happen, Chen Si lit the cigarette she was holding well, and I was the only one who was frightened.
I couldn't help frowning and said, "You're too messy!" It's dangerous! ”
"Danger? Aren't we all in danger all the time? Chen Si sneered and took a puff of the cigarette in his hand, the little fire was particularly clear in the darkness. She squinted slightly, and exhaled the smoke slowly and long, as if the whole person had calmed down from the fierce paranoia she had just experienced because of the cigarette. She waited until a puff of smoke was completely exhaled before she reopened her eyes, because she was in a position of leaning her head back, her eyes were looking straight upwards, and she didn't know where her eyes had fallen.
"Just let me smoke it, it's the last time anyway."
The last time? I frowned, what does this mean?
