Chapter 224: The Island of Eclipse (30) Sober
Six hours passed, and another nitric rain ended.
It's 9 p.m., it's completely dark outside, and the light from the logo on your wrist is getting more and more obvious.
Lin Ya's condition did not improve, the wound was still bleeding black poisonous blood, and the high fever showed no signs of going down. In order to alleviate his high fever, we can only use water to wipe his body all the time and use this physical way to cool him down.
When the rain stopped, we didn't go out of the cave and continue our journey as we had done before, but stayed in the cave.
First, Lin Ya currently needs to wipe his body all the time to lower the temperature, and there is no way to simply be carried forward. Second, the escape gate we are looking for is in the middle of the lake in front of us.
The work of cooling down the forest cliff was handed over to Fang Ruoxi, and I got up from the cave and walked towards the entrance of the cave.
Except that Fang Ruoxi was still taking care of Lin Ya and didn't come out, Chen Si also chose to stay in the cave, and didn't seem to care about the situation outside. The remaining few people, Lu Haisheng, Yu Pu, Fu Lingjun, Li Sheng, Lin Chang and I, the six of us stood by the lake outside the cave, looking at the place in the middle of the lake in unison, discussing the next plan.
At night, the central bulge of the lake has only a black outline, which is not very clear, but the green light on the bulge is very clear in the night - it is a sign "e".
I looked at the "e" in the center of the lake and looked down at the logo on my wrist, the light from the two "e" was as dim as the one I had seen in other rooms.
Fingertips running over my wrist, such a dim light, always struck me as something was wrong, as if this wasn't what it was supposed to be. It should be brighter and more eye-catching, and if the logo is lit up means an activation, this brightness makes me feel that the logo is not fully activated.
But activation always requires conditions, and I still haven't figured out what the conditions for activation are.
"Anyway, let's go there and have a look." Fu Lingjun opened his mouth and said, "From the time we entered here until now, we have only discovered the clue to escape, no matter what, we have to go over and take a look, it is better than sitting here and waiting to die." ”
"I'm definitely going to go." Lu Haisheng said in a deep voice, "It's just that we also have to study how to get there." It is not realistic for all of us to swim through, and even if we can all swim, it is not easy to swim this distance, given that we do not have enough food to eat at the moment. ”
Yu Pu nodded and continued to analyze: "Not only that, but we can't be sure whether the water quality of this lake is corrosive or not. What's more, thinking about the swamp before, who can guarantee that the lake is completely safe? ”
"So what to do? Now we can't afford to procrastinate. I frowned and glanced into the cave, "Lin Ya doesn't know how long it can last, we must find a way to escape as soon as possible!" ”
"Tsk, so what? Then looking at him like that, he is already half-dead, do you want all of us to risk it for him alone? Lin Chang said mockingly, revealing a disdainful look.
"What do you say? Who is half dead! I waited for Lin Chang to retort, "Lin Ya is just poisoned, it's not that he is hopeless, do you want to watch him die!" ”
"What can you do if you don't see him die? If you want me to say that what you are doing to save him now is a waste of time. Lin Chang spat on the ground, "I can't take care of my own life, and I still have time to take care of a dead person, I really have leisure."
"Lin Ya is still alive, are you blind!"
"Okay, don't leave!"
Lu Haisheng interrupted the quarrel between me and Lin Chang, looked at me and said word by word, "You figure it out, if you want to save Lin Ya, we have to save our lives first." ”
I was choked by Lu Haisheng's words, and I was really angry when I looked at Lin Chang's smug appearance, so I turned my head and closed my mouth and stopped talking.
Although I know that what Lu Haisheng said is right, I don't understand, Lin Chang didn't refute what he said, but came to reprimand me? Isn't Lin Ya the friend he should protect?
After stopping our quarrel, Lu Haisheng continued, "It's definitely not okay to swim over directly, we need tools." The previous raft should be fine, it's not too far from the swamp, we can go back and get it back. We can look along the lake for food, and we should be able to find something to eat here. ”
"It takes time to get the raft here and find food, right? In that case, we may not be able to leave before the next nitric acid rain. Yu Pu looked at his pocket watch and calculated.
Lu Haisheng nodded, "I wasn't going to set off immediately, it's dark now, and the visibility is so low, if there is any danger in the lake, it will be difficult for us to deal with it." Preparations are all made at this point, and when the next rain is over, we will leave for the center of the lake at 9 a.m. tomorrow morning. ”
I wasn't going to say anything more, but when I heard Lu Haisheng's words, I couldn't help but retort, "No! How can that be! Wouldn't that be another twelve hours! How could Lin Ya last for another twelve hours in this state now! ”
"Same words!" Lu Haisheng turned his head to look at me, his narrow eyes narrowed slightly, "I don't want to say it a second time." ”
I know that Lu Haisheng's current expression means that he is already a little angry, and he will never change his mind. I stared at him for a few seconds and then turned angrily and walked back into the cave, after so much time together, I thought I knew him well enough, only to realize that maybe I had never known him.
I don't understand why Lu Haisheng is like this. Isn't Lin Ya our friend? I, him, and Lin Ya all met in the no-man's city, we escaped the rats in the no-man's city together, and experienced the hardships of the fairy tale forest together, doesn't Lin Ya mean anything to him, is it a person who is dead and doesn't matter?
I don't understand, I really don't understand.
I don't doubt that Lu Haisheng can die for me, but I really can't understand why he is so cold to Lin Ya's life and death.
I walked towards the cave and walked to the cliff where I was still unconscious. From the time Lin Ya fainted until now, he has not woken up again. Yu Pu said that the effect of sleeping pills should have passed a long time ago, but Lin Ya still didn't wake up, probably because of the toxin
"Fang Ruoxi, I'll come." I sat down beside Lin Ya and reached out to take the cloth and water bottle from Fang Ruoxi's hand.
I had already rested during the rainy time before, and during that time, Fang Ruoxi had been taking care of Lin Ya, she hadn't rested yet, and she was tired now.
"Ah, don't leave." Fang Ruoxi turned her head and showed a faint smile at me, "I'm fine, you go and rest, I'll come." ”
I shook my head and forcibly took the fabric and water bottle from her hand, "I'll come, you go and take a break, you haven't rested for a long time, and your respiratory system won't be able to stand it if you go on like this." ”
Fang Ruoxi looked at Lin Ya hesitantly, and finally nodded, "Then I'll rest next to me for a while, and in two hours, you can call me up, and I'll replace you." ”
"Rest for a while, I'll call you if there's something, don't worry."
After persuading Fang Ruoxi to rest, I poured the water from the water bottle onto the cloth and replaced the one on Lin Ya's forehead, and sighed silently.
Looking at Fang Ruoxi's lying back, he couldn't help but speak, "Fang Ruoxi? ”
"Hey, what's wrong?" Fang Ruoxi agreed, turned over and faced me and waited for me to speak.
I looked at Fang Ruoxi, hesitated slightly, and then said, "Do you like Lin Ya very much?" ”
"Huh?" Fang Ruoxi seemed taken aback, got up directly from the ground, waved his hand at me indiscriminately, and said, "No!" There is no such thing! I'm just because Brother Lin Ya has always taken care of me, so I'm more anxious when he gets injured, it's not that it's not that what! ”
I was stunned for a moment, and then I realized that Fang Ruoxi had misunderstood my words, and hurriedly explained, "No, no, no, I didn't mean that." I just see that you are very worried about Lin Ya, and you also hope that he is safe. ”
"I'm calling you that." Fang Ruoxi seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, "Of course, Lin Ya is our partner, how could I not want him to be safe?" ”
"yes, how could he not want him to be safe," I muttered to myself, "but why didn't he really care?" ”
"Huh? What do you say? Which he? ”
"Ah, no, I don't have a rest without you."
Although Fang Ruoxi was suspicious, she didn't ask, and lay down again to rest.
I watched Fang Ruoxi rest and help Lin Ya wipe his body with the cloth in his hand, while still thinking about Lu Haisheng's attitude.
Is Lin Ya and me any different from Lu Haisheng? I asked myself silently. If you want to say something different, there should be two points, one is the wolf tooth pendant, and the other is Lu Haisheng's feelings for me.
If Lu Haisheng's attitude towards Lin Ya is the attitude he usually has, is he a cold-blooded and emotionless person?
Maybe I was wrong all along, Lu Haisheng protected me for himself because of the wolf tooth pendant at the beginning, and then he was afraid to say that he liked me and said love to me, and I naturally accepted his protection and care because of the love he said, but I mistakenly forgot that this kind of protection and care is suitable for the love he said.
Because of this, his attitude towards Lin Ya greatly exceeded my expectations, and it also made me see what the real him was like.
It's me who is wrong, and thinks of his friendship and behavior because of the pendant and his love for me, as if he was a gentle person himself.
What about me? What do I think I like Lu Haisheng looks like? I think what I like should be Lu Haisheng, who I thought was gentle and kind.
But I now understand that the real Lu Haisheng will only make the words gentle and kind feel ridiculous.
It's time to wake up, I don't love him.
I think.
