Hold on, the system and I have never been angry
Chapter 113 Seizing food from the tiger’s mouth
The people who fell into the water struggled desperately, trying to grab any floating objects around them. One of them could not swim, so she jumped up and down wildly in the water, trying to ask for help from people around her, but when she opened her mouth, the sea water could only choke her throat, causing her to cough violently, and she could not make any other sound.
The two men and one woman closest to her seemed to be completely unaware and were paddling towards the shore holding the driftwood.
The woman struggled for a moment and then sank.
By the time Lu Jinzhao waded over and pulled her out of the water, she was breathing out more than breathing in. He just wanted to teach these guys a lesson, and didn't think of taking the opportunity to drown anyone. Maybe these people could be used in the next mission. After dragging the person back to the shore and turning away, the group of people seemed to wake up from a dream, rushed over and began to give the woman first aid.
By the time the woman vomited out the accumulated water and coughed violently, she was saved. When those people remembered to look for her, the man and the black cat had already disappeared from the spot.
Chitose touched his chin and thought.JPG: "Why do I feel like I've seen this situation before? By the way, why did you save her?"
The clothes were dried in the sun. Lu Jinchao wrung out the moisture from his trouser legs, put on the hooded jacket he had just picked up, put on the hood, and tied his sleeves and trouser legs tightly. "There are trees everywhere on the island. They have the right tools. If they want to leave, they can just cut down trees and make their own rafts. Why did they have to steal mine? When I came here, I didn't see any signs of other islands around. They were in a hurry to leave. Where did they want to go? Besides, the woman knew that she couldn't swim, but she didn't take any precautions and just followed me. Was there something on the island that scared them? Finally, she was drowning, but the people around her turned a blind eye. It's too weird. Wait, I feel like there's something interesting to watch."
"You're leaving now. Don't you want the raft anymore?"
"No. The insect skins come from the desert. After being in the sea for so long, they are almost like waste." He looked up and found that the island was not very large, so he took Chitose off his shoulder and put her on a tree trunk nearby. "You stay and continue watching the show. I'll go around the island and see if there is anything I can do."
Qiansui disappeared, rubbing his hands in preparation: "OKK, I will always be at the forefront of eating melons."
Seeing Qiansui floating near the group of people, Lu Jinchao summoned two knives he often used, tied them to his waist, pulled out one of them and held it in his left hand as a machete, and held the scabbard in his right hand as a pathfinder, which helped him to clear a path in the lush jungle.
The sun shone through the sparse clouds and sprinkled on this isolated island. In front of him was a lush tropical rain forest. The tall trees covered the sky above like an umbrella. Only sporadic rays of light could penetrate the dense leaves and hit him.
He passed by a group of tropical ants and stopped to observe for a while, but unfortunately he was not professional enough to see what was going on, so he gave up. He continued to walk forward, and the ground began to become slippery. He slowed down and carefully avoided the moss-covered stones and the pits hidden under the fallen leaves.
From time to time, he used a machete to clear away the small branches blocking his way and passed through an area composed of huge ferns. The leaves were big enough to completely cover an adult, which reminded people of the "Beware of Fallen Leaves" warning signs that can be seen everywhere when traveling to Haicheng.
After the rustling sound, something fell from the top of his head, hitting him bit by bit like hail. He raised his hand and brushed the top of his hat with the scabbard, bringing down several dark-colored mollusks. They were slightly flattened cylinders, thin at both ends, each with a suction cup, and their bodies were soft and flexible. At this moment, they were wriggling, trying to drill into the back of Lu Jinzhao's hand.
Those that had just fallen to the ground were also constantly moving towards his feet.
It makes my scalp tingle for no reason.
He knew this creature, scientifically known as leech. When he was a child, he watched a documentary on TV about a little boy who drank river water on his way to school and accidentally drank leech eggs. The leeches eventually parasitized his lungs, causing the boy to suffocate several times and nearly die. The doctor removed two leeches, more than ten centimeters long, from the boy's lungs, which were still twisting when they were taken out.
That scene was a shadow of his early childhood, and he would never forget it in his life.
If I had known there would be a lot of mosquitoes in the jungle, I would have had to wear thick clothes and tie them tightly. Otherwise, if they took advantage of the opportunity to sneak in, I would have been in great pain, not to mention that some of them were poisonous.
This was also the reason why he had just taken the coat from the group's luggage. After all, he had only a vest on when he appeared in the desert, which was really useless. Although he knew that there was no blood in this body for them to suck, they didn't know.
Just thinking about a swarm of leeches clinging to your body is enough to make you feel sick.
Lu Jinzhao used a two-pronged approach, chopping with a knife and stepping with his feet, and finally cleared away the pile of disgusting leeches.
After walking for about half an hour, they arrived at the center of the island. Lu Jinzhao estimated that the distance of his step was about 0.8 meters. He walked slowly, averaging about 85 steps per minute, which was equivalent to walking about 2040 meters. Rounding it up to two kilometers, substituting this distance as the radius into the formula, the area was about fourteen square kilometers.
Apart from the fact that the shape of the island may not be round, the area seems to be quite large at present. If something really happens, we can just hide in the woods and no one will find us.
There was nothing in the center of the island except a circular lake.
Lu Jinchao was a little confused. He thought there must be some monsters or ferocious beasts on the island, which scared those people and made them want to escape, but now it seems that it is probably much safer than some uninhabited islands and dense forests on Earth.
At least he didn't encounter any traces of large beasts along the way.
Just as we were about to return the same way, the water in the lake began to boil, and a column of water more than ten meters high spurted upward, and then fell down in large quantities, like a light rain.
"..." Lu Jinzhao wiped his face and couldn't help rolling his eyes. He gave up the idea of returning the same way and thought about taking a look around again.
Qiansui lay on a tall tree trunk, staring at the people below, recording their every move.
The woman who choked on water slowly woke up, and the people around her seemed relieved and smiled. One of the women with long hair rushed over and hugged her: "Qiqi, that's great, you're okay!"
"As long as it's okay, it'll be okay."
"It just scared me to death."
Guan Qiqi's head was buzzing, and she was still in a daze. She coughed twice, and her throat felt hot and painful. She tapped the long-haired woman's back and said, "Pan Qing... cough, cough, let me go first."
"Oh, sorry." Pan Qing followed his instructions and released Guan Qiqi, "Do you feel better now?"
"I'm fine." Guan Qiqi shook her head and turned to her boyfriend, "Wei Fan, come with me."
Having said that, she stood up first and walked to the other end of the beach regardless of everyone's reactions.
"Ah? Oh, here they come." Wei Fan scratched his head in confusion, looked at the others, shrugged, and followed.
Pan Qing poked the man next to her: "Guan Jun, what happened to your sister?"
Guan Jun shook his head: "I don't know."
"Isn't Qiqi your sister? Why do you look like it has nothing to do with you?"
"She's just a cousin I see once a year. We're not that close."
Qiansui floated above Guan Qiqi and Wei Fan's heads, and the two were arguing.
Guan Qiqi crossed her arms and asked, "Just now on the raft, I saw you holding hands with Pan Qing. When did you two get together?"
Wei Fan was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly: "How is that possible? You must have seen it wrong."
"Really?" Guan Qiqi sneered: "Then what do you mean by not saving me just now? Do you want me to die in the water so that you two adulterers can be happy?!"
Wei Fan spread his hands, "Honey, why do you think so? I was also panicked when I fell into the water, and I really didn't know you were drowning! If I knew, I would definitely save you the first time!"
"Quibbling! You were clearly looking at me when I was drowning, but you quickly looked away and pretended not to know. Do you think I was blind?!" Guan Qiqi was almost furious. She pointed at Wei Fan's nose and cursed: "You are just a coward who lives off me! How dare you cheat on me?! I was also wondering why you insisted on taking me to join a tour group, causing us to be dragged into this strange place halfway. Now that I think about it, you just wanted to take advantage of the trip to have sex with her!"
Wei Fan's expression changed slightly: "Guan Qiqi! Your words are too harsh! Is this how you think of me in your heart?! I really misjudged you! Go out and ask around, everyone in Changli City knows that you, Miss Guan, have a violent temper! Except for me, who would be willing to be bullied by a shrew like you!"
Qiansui whistled excitedly: "Well, well, there really is something interesting to watch."
The two of them argued louder and louder, and the sound could even be faintly heard by other people on this end of the beach.
Pan Qing: "Are they arguing?"
Guan Jun: "Again. Ever since these two got on board, they've been arguing every two hours on average, almost non-stop."
Pan Qing covered her mouth and laughed secretly, her body kept moving closer to Guan Jun: "It's normal. With Qiqi's temper, only Wei Fan can stand her."
Guan Jun glanced at her, sat further away silently, and said disdainfully: "Only Wei Fan would be interested in a green tea like you. If you have an eye cramp, go get it treated. Don't be flirty with me. I have a fiancée."
Pan Qing's face turned pale and blue: "You!"
The remaining two people quickly began to mediate: "Alright, alright, stop arguing. The argument over there hasn't ended yet. Don't start it again."
“Pa——” A crisp slapping sound came from not far away, mixed with Guan Qiqi’s roar: “Wei Fan, you bastard!!! We break up!”
"Guan Qiqi, you shrew! How dare you hit me!"
"What's wrong with hitting you? I'll hit you if you want. Do I have to choose a day? Not only will I hit you, I'll also chop you!"
After Guan Qiqi finished scolding, she actually took out a knife and wanted to hit Wei Fan with it, scaring Wei Fan so much that he dodged repeatedly.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the others rushed over to try to stop the fight.
Pan Qing finally pulled Guan Qiqi aside, but was pushed away by Guan Qiqi. She accidentally fell to the ground. The blood rushed to her head and she shouted at Guan Qiqi: "Guan Qiqi, you crazy woman, why did you push me? How did I provoke you!?"
Guan Qiqi sneered: "You know what I'm doing better than I do. When you were doing it behind my back and didn't save me when I fell into the water, why didn't you think about the consequences of provoking me?! Wait, when I get back, I will let my dad kill you!"
There was a clear flash of resentment in Pan Qing and Wei Fan's eyes.
Guan Jun shook his head in frustration.
Qiansui shook his head. "This Miss Guan doesn't seem to be in a good mind. She hasn't even returned to a safe area yet, yet she's talking nonsense here. Isn't she afraid that these two people will get angry and kill her?"
The man with glasses, who had been silent from the beginning, said, "Do you think the beach has become a little narrower?"
Pan Qing sneered in annoyance: "Are you crazy? Isn't it normal for the sea tide to rise?"
The other person took two steps closer and stared at the rising and falling water. "It doesn't seem to be his illusion. I also think that this beach seems to have become a little narrower..."
Before they could react, a huge wave suddenly hit and swept them all in. Guan Qiqi and Wei Fan were safe because they were standing at the back, but Guan Jun was drenched in water, and the man with glasses was thrown onto the beach by the huge wave, looking very embarrassed. Pan Qing and another person were swept in by the waves and disappeared on the beach.
Wei Fan subconsciously ran over, groping in the water while shouting, "Qingqing!"
Guan Qiqi laughed out of anger. How dare you say there’s nothing between them?
Pan Qing emerged from the receding tide and climbed in using both hands and feet, shouting as she crawled: "Run!!! There's a monster in the water!! That person was dragged away by it!! "
Wei Fan quickly helped her up, and the two of them stumbled towards Guan Qiqi.
Guan Jun passed by Guan Qiqi and pulled her along: "Run, what are you standing there for? Do you want to die?"
"Oh, there's a monster? That shouldn't be the case. Brother Chao and I have been drifting on the sea for so long and haven't seen any monsters." Qiansui floated into the sea and opened his eyes. He found that the unlucky guy was rolled up by a huge tentacle monster and most of his body was bitten off in one bite. He was startled and quickly retreated back to the surface of the sea.
It seems that I suddenly understand why Chao Ge has a slight fear of the deep sea. Such a big thing, just under the calm sea surface, quietly watching you. As soon as you stick your head under the sea, you can see its huge body and dangerous eyes. Anyone who comes here will be scared.
When it turned back to look at the people, it found that they had already fled into the forest along the path opened by its host. It flew fast, so it was not worried about losing them. It sent a message to the host, saying, "The latest news, there is a monster living in the sea, it swept away one, and the remaining five went into the forest. They might bump into you."
"What kind of monster?"
"I don't know if it's a squid, octopus, or a mutated jellyfish, but it looks disgusting. It has dozens of legs, and it should be as big as a building."
"I got it." Lu Jinzhao was now standing in front of a pit where a honey badger lived, and he had the urge to set fire to the pit.
The incident started when he discovered a nest of wild bees. He had just knocked the hive down and wrapped it with leaves. When he was about to drive the bees away, a honey badger jumped out and snatched the entire hive away.
It was rare that he hadn't eaten for several days, so he wanted to change his taste... The honey badger is worthy of its name, the flat-headed brother, and it is really brave. It can't bear to snatch food from the tiger's mouth. If it is caught by it, the flat-headed brother will be finished.
