Chapter Twenty-Three: A Seafood Feast
Xiao Lun saw the situation clearly when he was about to collide with Li Ci, but he was too decisive and too anxious this time, even if he opened the genetic lock, he couldn't change direction in time. This hit was very painful and embarrassing. He clearly saw Li Ci's eyes that were about to eat him, and he believed that he would definitely not have a good result after going up.
Li Ci dragged his octopus whiskers and swam to the surface. Looking around, the sea is vast, and it is impossible to see where there is land. But Li Ci has a way, he has been here several times, just because it is not far from his hometown. He remembered that there was a desert island around here, just southeast of the little fishing village.
But now, after such a chaotic swim, they don't know where they are at all, so it's hard to determine how far away the desert island is from here, and in which direction.
The morning sun is rising, it should be the east, the small fishing village is in the southwest, not to mention the small island, he has to find his way back first.
"Xiao Lun, take a few of those fish floating on the sea and go back to eat!"
Li Ci didn't have time to worry about Xiao Lun, the collision between him and Xiao Lun under the surface of the sea, the shock wave killed all sea creatures within a radius of 100 meters, except for seaweeds and mayflies. Now there are a lot of fish floating on the sea, and there are a lot of big fish.
Xiao Lun also looked in all directions, and picked two big sharks to hold in his hands. Li Ci didn't care about the specific location, probably the location was good. Anyway, they swim fast, and it is impossible to be far away, three thousand meters at most.
The two men headed towards the west, dragging a huge fish corpse, but their speed did not decrease but increased. Xiao Lun turned on the gene lock, his physical fitness was special, and the first-order gene lock had no effect on him at all. Li Ci can now open the first-order gene lock without injury, and the two of them drove away with the gene lock luxuriously, and soon saw the cliff where they jumped into the sea.
Li Ci discerned the direction and rushed to the southeast. About seven kilometers from the small fishing village, there is a small island. When the fishing village was not closed for fishing, people who went to sea could repair it nearby.
At that time, there was a lot of supplies and equipment stored on the island, but now it is estimated that they are all abandoned. Li Ci and Xiao Lun didn't care about the regular food, as long as there were still some cooking tools in the tin house above, they were very happy.
It turns out that when the speed reaches a certain point, finding a needle in a haystack can really be done. Although Li Ci didn't know the specific location, under his speed, he still quickly found the island in the distance.
It's a very small island, less than 500 meters in diameter, and it's very irregular. However, the island is lush with vegetation and may not have been visited by humans for a long time, and it has returned to its pristine ecology. It's just that in winter, the island is full of fallen branches, just in time to collect firewood.
What made Li Ci even more excited was that on such a small island, there was actually a small beach in the west, and the clean sand was very tasteful, the taste of a rich man. Li Ci fantasizes about luxury yachts and crazy beach parties...... Countless cute and charming teenage girls...... Well, just think about it, he is a person who has detached himself from low-level interests, a person who dedicates his body to the motherland and the earth, how can he sink into this beautiful scene, although the beach here is completely frozen, and it is a little slippery to step on, but people always have to pursue it a little!
Even if the war is won...... Then this kind of scene must be a must! Then he will live his long and wonderful life happily, and enjoy the reward he deserves as a warrior.
Don't want to have those who don't have it, endure the hunger in their stomachs, Li Ci and Xiao Lun cheered up, dragged their food into the venue, and first staged a bloody fish-killing show.
Li Ci decisively cut off the eight octopus whiskers, drilled wood to make fire, cut a few thick branches, and skewered the octopus whiskers and roasted them.
Don't think about the barbecue, Li Ci just used a small tree with the thickness of his arm to peel the skin, washed it in the seawater, and directly cut the octopus whiskers into several pieces. Then it's time for the happy barbecue with a huge piece of meat in hand!
Do you remember the scene where Luffy ate Haisai? Li Ci and Xiao Lun are like this now. Half-human-tall pieces of flesh, ground under their steel teeth, all went into their stomachs.
There is no salt, no seasoning, but this marine mollusk is a cow, and it can have a very fragrant flavor just by cooking it.
The huge flames blazing on the beach completely roasted the thick octopus whiskers, although the skin was a little burnt, and there was smoky black dust, but after washing in the seawater, the dark red tender meat still made Li Ci and Xiao Lun secretly refreshed.
There's no beer here, otherwise you would have eaten octopus with beer, and it tastes absolutely good.
Li Ci and Xiao Lun ate amazingly, eight octopus claws more than ten meters long, and one person ate four. If it weren't for the fact that it took a long time to cook, Li Ci would have eaten the two three-meter-long sharks.
The rolling energy surged, Li Ci felt that he had enough energy, and the benefits brought by the "Light of Life" gene were somewhat exposed.
Xiao Lun was lying on the beach with his stomach upright, he ate too quickly, and swallowed it without chewing carefully, causing the food to digest slower than Li Ci, and now his stomach is still a little distended.
In this way, the time was also more than five o'clock in the afternoon, and the two sharks brought in had been stripped of their skin and bones and hung on dry trees. The good thing about winter is that I don't have to worry about the rotting flesh of these highly perishable sea fish, and the face of the truck-sized octopus is also solid and frozen on the beach. Who made it have such a low sense of existence compared to octopus claws! Li Ci said that he only eats octopus claws.
After a good day, Li Ci and Xiao Lun found a small tin hut on the island, and there were a few shabby clothes in it, all of which were relatively thin, but now they didn't care about the cold of this winter.
I found two relatively complete pieces to put on, closed the dilapidated wooden door, and found a corner in the house with a windy roof and stargazing on all sides, and both of them fell into a deep sleep.
What happened in the past two days made them a little confused about the real and the illusion, and they almost died, and they were reborn as Superman, and now they can't die even if they take a shell.
Although Li Ci was in a trance, he had been prepared for a long time, but his super gene awakening made him feel that he was still blessed by the great god of traversal. As a traverser, it can't be just that one plug-in that is not very powerful!
Xiao Lun is more confused, now he has said that he is standing at the top of the food chain, even if he watches Marvel movies, his physique is very strong. Could it be that there really is a Superman in this world? Or are those movies based on real events?
Is there a Divine Stick Bureau in reality? If I enter the Divine Stick Bureau, how much salary can I give? Are there really so many mutants and supervillains in this world? Do I want to be a guardian with dreams like Spider-Man, or do I want to become a super agent of the National Security Bureau with great strength?
Many, many questions lingered in Xiao Lun's mind, and he was a little confused.
"Xiao Lun, I'm your father now!"
In the dark, Li Ci said in a daze, this time Xiao Lun was even more confused, what was going on?
