Chapter 12: The Serpent

The scorching sun is slightly slanting westward, the sea is sparkling, the crimson blood has long been washed away by the water, the broken hull sinks and sinks, floats away, and nothing is left!

After this change, everyone's mood could not be good, and Sicheng kept looking at the sea in a daze. From anger at the beginning to grief, and finally as if I had lost my soul, my eyes were empty and godless.

The others either smoked cigarettes or were distracted, and there was silence.

"Uncles, the deceased is gone! let's think of a way to go back!" Lu Yan sighed softly in his heart, breaking the silence.

"Go back, can we go back?" said Mei Wen, gulping out a thick smoke, unable to make out his expression.

"Blame me! Blame me! If I hadn't been reluctant to throw the fish, we would have gone to the island a long time ago, and I killed them, blame me" Mei Zhong's eyes were red, and he pounded the sand with remorse, and his voice was a little choked.

The others remained silent, immersed in grief, they were all former partners, relatives, but in the blink of an eye

Lu Yan couldn't understand everyone's feelings, but reason told him when they would be able to go home if they continued like this. Besides, no one has ever penetrated this island, so it is unknown whether it is dangerous or not!

"Uncles!" Lu Yan stood up with a serious expression, "I completely understand your feelings, but if we keep feeling sorry for ourselves like this at this moment, will we be able to solve the problem? If we disappear like this collectively, what will the relatives in the village think? How can they be embarrassed!"

As soon as Lu Yan's words came out, everyone couldn't help but ponder.

"Please don't let the sacrifices of Sambo and Uncle Kaitai be useless! Otherwise, under Jiuquan, they will not turn a blind eye!" Seeing that everyone's fighting spirit was about to return, Lu Yan took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire.

"Alas! yes! Don't let their sacrifice go to waste!" Mei Wen spat out again, thrust the cigarette gun into the ground, stood up and said, "Cheer up!"

If someone takes the lead, it will be much easier, and everyone will stand up one after another, and they will not be so decadent. It's just that Sicheng's state is still worrying.

"Xiaoyan, you are a scholar, and your head is flexible, what should you do?"

"He's a little kid, what can he know!" Lu Xiong frowned slightly, and his tiger eyes were still a little swollen.

"Lao Lu, now is not the time to be hypocritical, Xiao Fei has shown that everyone has seen it all the way, and he is much more daring and smarter than those of us who have lived for half a lifetime!

Seeing that everyone else nodded, Lu Xiong didn't say anything more.

Lu Yan cast a reassuring look at his father, and then spoke: "I wonder if your uncles have ever gone deep into this island?"

"We used to go to sea, and we didn't even have the opportunity to go to the island, at most we just took a short rest on the beach, how could we go deeper!"

Hearing this, Lu Yan couldn't help but frown, pondered slightly, and said, "How about getting some food first, and then going to the island to find some dry wood to make a boat?"

The group had no opinions, but fortunately, all of them were fishing experts, and they caught more than a dozen foot-long guinea fish in a short time. Mei Wen and Mei Donglai dived into the wreck and scooped up the cauldron. Coupled with some wild vegetables and mushrooms that Hua Tian picked around, it only took half an hour for a pot full of fish soup to be ready.

Although everyone has no appetite, in order to prevent the danger that may arise when they enter the island, almost all of them eat some to replenish their strength. Sicheng has not yet come out of the shadow of losing his loved ones, he only drank some fish soup, and was always silent.

Everyone sighed, but there was nothing to be done, this kind of thing had to rely on themselves, and the persuasion of others had little effect.

After eating, Lu Xiong and the others salvaged harpoons, spearguns and other sharp weapons, and marched to the island with one hand.

The periphery of Ichisan Island is full of shrubs, artemisia and other plants, and now it is green!

They were in groups of three or four, replacing the opening of the road, and Lu Yan held a large steel knife nearly four feet long. This knife weighs about forty or fifty pounds, the width of a palm, and at first everyone was afraid that he would play it and not move, but Lu Yan picked it up at random and pulled two knife flowers. The others were surprised, but they didn't ask, just so as not to explain.

The journey was not fast, it was only two or three hundred meters away in the past hour, but everyone was already sweating profusely. The ground was very wet, and there were even small puddles in some places, so Lu Yan would stop at this time and fill them up with an empty kettle.

In his previous life, he often went deep into the mountains and old forests, and even did tomb robbing, and these things can be said to be easy to do.

On the way, they encountered many small animals such as snakes, frogs, rabbits, and badgers, and they scared away when they heard the movement, and they did not dare to chase after them in this environment.

A few dozen meters away, the forest in the distance was already in sight, and everyone couldn't help but speed up their pace.

"Wangbo stop!" At this moment, Lu Yan suddenly shouted, clenching the long knife in his hand.

"What's wrong, why did you stop?" asked the middle-aged man named Mei Wang, who thrust the big knife in his hand into the ground, wiped the sweat from his face, and asked puzzled.

Seeing that the others also cast puzzled glances, Lu Yan muttered: "I don't know if you have noticed, a section of the road ahead, you can see a bird's nest and a rat's nest and the like from a few meters away. But now we've walked another twenty or thirty meters, and we haven't seen a single animal, and I'm worried."

"You're saying we're going to meet goblins again?" Mei Zhong's face was full of worry.

"Where are so many goblins!" Lu Yan hurriedly stopped and explained, "At most, it's a beast of fierceness, there are so many of us, there is no need to worry at all." Of course, it may be that I am too worried, but we should be careful, and I recommend that you go back to back, although the speed is a lot slower, but it is better to be safe!"

From the beginning of his formal practice, he found that his senses were much sharper. And it seems that it is possible to predict the auspicious omen of impending good luck. He was confused, he hadn't heard Xia Da say that he still had such an ability after practicing, could it be

Lu Yan inevitably thought of the milky white light left behind after the purple-clothed man dissipated!

However, now is not the time to think about this, just a moment, and then come back to your senses.

"Well, that's fine!" Mervin put away his cigarette gun and clenched his weapon in his hand just in case.

After about the tea cup, there was a strange fragrance, and it was very weak at first. But after walking a few feet, it was already so strong that people couldn't help but be shocked, and everyone stopped tacitly and looked at each other.

Lu Yan held a knife in his right hand, slowly stepped forward, picked up a stone the size of a basin, and smashed it with all his might!

"Wow!"

As soon as everyone saw a flower in front of them, they saw a giant snake, as if a big tree was rising from the ground!

It was born with two heads, and at the moment it was spitting scarlet snake letters, the length of which was indiscernible, and the exposed body was as thick and thin as an adult's body
