Chapter 452
Get out of silos
After laughing at himself, Huo Shan walked to the shore, and didn't care that he was sitting at the door of the bamboo house, looking at his Helen with wide eyes. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Instead, he walked straight to a tall bamboo pole that stood up more than four meters high, looked up at it, and leaned down to pick up a thick rattan from the ground, the front end of which was a live buckle about 30 centimeters in diameter, and the whole rattan was like the rope commonly used by herdsmen in the Mongolian steppe.
Of course, in comparison, Huo Shan made this thing much rougher by himself. Fortunately, the rattan is tough, not much worse than the rope.
After picking up this rattan rope, Huo Shan took two steps back, looked at the bamboo pole erected high, and after taking a deep breath, the expression on his face gradually became serious.
'Hey' With a low shout, the long rope in Huo Shan's hand was thrown vigorously, and he immediately turned into a brown dragon and rushed out, and then flew to the top of the bamboo pole accurately, and then he used his strength to accurately put the bamboo pole into it.
Seeing this, Huo Shan's face remained unchanged, and he picked up the same rope from the side again and threw it out again.
In this way, one after another, and in a short time all ten ropes were already attached to the bamboo poles. It was only at this time that Huo Shan's heart was really happy.
"I've been practicing for so long, and now I'm finally successful!"
With such a thought, Huo Shan didn't care how dirty the ground was. Just sat down.
Looking up at this place where he had lived for three months, he sighed softly in his heart, and his face showed a complicated color.
"Everything is ready now. It's time to leave!" thought to himself, "But when I get out, I'll have to come back again!"
At this time, the expression on Huo Shan's face became firm.
For three months, because of Helen's drag, Huo Shan has not had the opportunity to go deep inland to explore the island. But judging from the length of the coastline he had traveled, he could roughly guess that the island was probably more than a thousand square kilometers in size.
Such a large island is very valuable in the ocean. So, after going out this time. He made up his mind in his heart to control this obviously uninhabited island in the hands of the Huo family.
Of course, this is a matter for the future, and the most important thing for Huo Shan now is to cross the reef belt from this desert island and walk out from here.
Come to think of it. Huo Shan couldn't sit still anymore. After patting his buttocks, he stood up.
Tomorrow is ready to leave, so he still has a lot of work to do today. The most important of these is to prepare food and fresh water for the upcoming voyage, which you will not have when you leave the island and go to sea.
With Huo Shan's busyness, the time of the day passed quickly.
After eating Huo Shan's grilled fish, and then letting Helen vent it, Huo Shan took her clothes without her consent. The two of them returned to the bamboo hut.
"Xiaoshan, are we leaving here tomorrow?" his head rested on Huo Shan's arm. Helen asked in a complicated tone while drawing circles on Huo Shan's thick chest with her right hand.
"Well, we've been on this isolated island for three months, and now that everything is ready, it's time for us to leave!" At this moment, the expression on Huo Shan's face was unprecedentedly determined.
For three months, the bonfire he had lit on the island had not been extinguished, but he didn't know why no one had come to look for him, he didn't know if it was because the reefs around the island were blocked, or if they had drifted too far in the storm that night for no Huo Jiajun's warships to find them, or if they weren't even on Earth anymore.
In later generations, after watching too much Huo Shan through the novel, coupled with his own personal experience, this somewhat absurd idea involuntarily appeared in his mind.
But no matter what, he had to leave this isolated island, and there were so many things outside that he couldn't let go.
After listening to his words, Helen in the dark didn't say anything, but at this moment her face showed a faint loneliness.
She knew very well that once they really left here and went to the outside world, then the relationship between her and Huo Shan would probably not be able to continue.
Because she knew in her heart that the family would never allow her to marry an Oriental. This is a shame for the Bourbons, who were once French royalty!
Helen knew this in her heart, although she also wanted to stay in the east incognito with Huo Shan like this, after all, it was thousands of miles away, coupled with the inconvenience of transportation and communication, the people in the family would also think that she was killed in the storm, and would not look for it again. However, when she really got outside, she couldn't really let go of her father, mother, and beloved relatives such as her brother and sister.
So during this time, Helen was really conflicted in her heart, her heart was constantly weighing between family affection and love, and she had to make a choice.
But this choice was really painful, she didn't want to face this, but Bing Xue was smart and knew that she couldn't take the initiative to persuade Huo Shan to stay on this island, because his idea of leaving here was too strong.
Although she had also dragged him back in the middle, Huo Shan still built the bamboo raft according to the established plan.
"Okay, don't think too much, get up tomorrow morning, after eating, we're going to leave here!" Huo Shan hugged Helen, who was smooth and delicate, uneven, and delicate in his arms, and whispered.
"Hmm!" After answering softly, Helen leaned over Huo Shan's body again, feeling his strong and powerful heartbeat, although it was really very safe. But at this moment, Helen still can't find a direction in her heart, family affection and love, she can only choose one of them, this kind of eternal problem makes Helen soft.
"Forget it, follow him one step at a time!" With such a thought, Helen hugged Huo Shan and fell asleep in a daze.
For her, perhaps simplicity is the best option.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
The long dark night passed quickly, and when the dawn sun shone through the cracks in the bamboo house, Helen's long eyelashes, lying on the bed made of mango leaves, trembled a few times, and then slowly opened her misty eyes.
Tilting his head, his right hand habitually touched to his side, but the empty bed beside him meant that he didn't know when, Huo Shan had already gotten up and left.
Startled, Helen hurriedly sat up, and then ran out of the door barefoot, just in time to see Huo Shan, who was holding two fish in his hand.
"Get up!" Hearing the footsteps, he turned around and said, "It just so happens that the fish here is ready, come and eat!"
At this time, Helen, who was relieved in her heart, hurriedly agreed and walked over.
"Let's eat, eat more today, it'll be difficult to eat next time!" No fire could be lit on the boat, and when they left here, they could only survive on the dried fish they had prepared before.
After listening to Huo Shan's words, Helen nodded, Bing Xue was smart and she knew the meaning of Huo Shan's words.
After the grilled fish cooled down a little, he didn't care about any aristocratic etiquette, so he ate it in a big gulp.
Looking at her appearance, Huo Shan smiled, picked up another grilled fish, peeled off the burnt skin on it, looked at the exposed snow-white fish meat, and bit it with a big mouth.
In less than half an hour, two groupers of more than a pound had entered the stomachs of the two of them, and Helen, who had eaten so much for the first time, touched her bulging little belly with a look of satisfaction.
Seeing this, Huo Shan smiled, stood up, covered the unextinguished bonfire with sand, and then walked into the distance and refilled the fire they had used to call for help with sand. Only then did he turn back to the shore, looked at Helen, who had already stood up, and said in a deep voice: "Let's go, it's time to leave!"
"Hmm!"
Nodding slightly, Helen took one last fondly look at the place where she had lived for more than three months and left her with good memories, and then walked to the bamboo row with the support of Huo Shan.
Then, Huo Shan returned to the shore, removed the stones, untied the rattan that bound the bamboo raft, threw it onto the bamboo raft, and then jumped on it in a big stride. Then he reached out and picked up the long bamboo pole on the bamboo raft, supported the bank with both arms, and then under the strong reaction force, the bamboo raft began to slowly drive towards the middle of the river.
The reason why Huoshan chose to live on the bank of this river at the beginning, in addition to the convenience of obtaining fresh water, is because the estuary of this river may be because of the scouring effect of the river, and there are not too many reefs.
It is not until the reef belt that surrounds the island is 100 meters deep that the low reef belt reappears, and after another two or three hundred meters, the kind of large reef that is three or four meters high, or even five or six meters high, like a hill, appears.
The distance of more than 300 meters is like a thick cake being bitten off, saving Huo Shan more than 300 meters of exploration. That's why he finally chose to build a bamboo raft here.
In addition, because of the large number of reefs here, there are basically no big waves on the sea, but the undercurrent under the water is turbulent, if it weren't for the fact that in the past month or so, Huo Shan has gradually adapted to the environment here, plus his own strength, if he can control this row of bamboo rafts, I'm afraid it will not be easy for him to leave here.
Standing at the tail of the bamboo raft, smashing the bamboo pole into the sea, the propeller bamboo raft slowly moved forward, looking at the surrounding blue-black reefs, Huo Shan couldn't help but sigh in his heart The magic of nature.
"I really don't know what kind of geological movement has formed this dense and tall reef group like a forest, and there is such a large island hidden in this reef group. With this in mind, Huo Shan drove the bamboo raft forward with all his might. (To be continued.) )u
