second life

Chapter 40 Guess

The weather is very hot. Although the sea breeze is strong, the water in the human body evaporates very quickly. You can even taste the salty and bitter taste between your lips and tongue, which is left by the sea water evaporated on your body. .

There was no water to drink, so they could only talk less, so the two of them didn't speak much, and closed their eyes to rest.

When it was completely dark, the island gradually became lively, with the sound of insects singing around my ears, if it wasn't for Zhao Xiu's good hearing, I really couldn't hear Lin Yuanqi's low moan.

He opened his eyes and looked at Lin Yuanqi, who was frowning and breathing heavily. The two of them were sitting next to the fire, and one of them occupied one side. Zhao Xiu looked at him coldly and said nothing until Lin Yuanqi was completely He was leaning against the rotten tree before he stood up and walked over to touch Lin Yuanqi's forehead. Sure enough, he had a fever.

Lin Yuanqi was injured when he was in the sea. Although he was not hit by the bullet, he rubbed his shoulder. After soaking in the sea for so long, he was completely infected. That's why he had a high fever now.

Zhao Xiu sat beside him, Lin Yuanqi straightened up calmly, and fell directly on Zhao Xiu's shoulder.

At night, it rained heavily on the island.

The fire that the two spent half a day lighting up was completely extinguished by the rain. There was lightning and thunder in the sky. They couldn't hide under the trees, so they had to find a piece of land between the beach and the jungle. It was still sunny during the day. At night, there was a storm on the island, the rain fell heavily, and the two of them were soaked. Zhao Xiu raised his head to catch the few raindrops, his throat was rumbling, and there was not much water that could reach his mouth. He took out the funnel-shaped thing rolled up with the big leaves on the island before, followed by the rain, opened Lin Yuanqi's mouth, and fed it in.

Lin Yuanqi coughed a few times, opened his eyes and looked at him, and slowly drank the rainwater, at least it wasn't salty.

The whole surface of the sea seemed to be enraged by thunder, and the waves hit the shore one after another. Fortunately, they landed before the storm, otherwise, it is unimaginable that such weather is still at sea.

After the two of them drank water, their mouths finally felt a lot more comfortable. Zhao Xiu glanced at Lin Yuanqi who was leaning beside him. This guy was as cold as ice, and he was drenched in the rain again. He wondered if it would be more serious.

The rain at night came and went quickly, a few waves hit the shore, the tide rose, and the rain stopped soon.It's just that the temperature on Lin Yuanqi's body seemed to be higher, he frowned and leaned tightly against Zhao Xiu, breathing more and more heavily.

"Don't sleep." Zhao Xiu's heart sank, and he shook his shoulders. It's hard to say whether he can wake up after falling asleep. He didn't leave this guy at sea before, so can he die now?

"Lin Yuanqi!" He pulled his arm, touched his forehead again, and patted his face hard.

Lin Yuanqi finally woke up from the drowsiness, he coughed twice, opened his eyes and looked at him, "What's wrong?" His voice was low and hoarse, and Zhao Xiu suddenly remembered what he said in his ear when the two were entangled on the boat .

Lin Yuanqi actually laughed slowly, looked at Zhao Xiu, and said word by word: "Don't worry, I won't die." There was a sense of sarcasm in his tone. It's getting colder.

"I know what happened this time was not an accident, and I will go back alive." Whether it was the pirates or the empty rescue cabin, there were so many accidents, but I didn't expect that they even trapped the entire ship's people in it.

Lin Yuanqi turned around and stared at Zhao Xiu seriously, Zhao Xiu also faced him with a serious face.

Lin Yuanqi suddenly bent his lips, turned over and pressed on Zhao Xiu.

Zhao Xiu didn't move, but frowned, and said dangerously: "It's still going on at this time, is there something wrong with you?"

"I have a fever." His voice was very soft, and he put his arms around Zhao Xiu's shoulder. "You don't want me to die."

"It's better to die." Zhao Xiu sneered.

"Before you die, you have to fulfill the conditions you promised me."

"Young Master Qi is inviting me? If it is the way it is now, I can swallow it with reluctance."

Lin Yuanqi laughed softly, grabbed Zhao Xiu's chin and kissed it.

Lips and tongues intertwined for a while, and then parted quickly.

Both of them were panting, Zhao Xiu grabbed Lin Yuanqi's neck, Lin Yuanqi finally stopped smiling, he looked into Zhao Xiu's eyes, and said quietly: "We will go back."

"Brother Jiang, Brother Qi and the others have been missing for three full days. If they can't be found anymore, they can only..." Awen clenched his fists, his face pale.

Jiang Heng sat on the sofa expressionlessly. There was a basin of grapes in front of him, but they were intact, not a single one was touched.

"Where's Chen Zhao?"

"They're in the hospital. They've been floating at sea for too long. They're not in a good condition, but their lives are no longer in danger." Chen Zhao and the others were rescued last night. He, Sister Xuan and two other men were on a lifeboat It was discovered by the patrolling marine police. At that time, several people were already unconscious from the cold, but Chen Zhao was still a little conscious. When he saw the patrolling boat, he set fire to it and was rescued by others.

Jiang Heng tapped his lapped knees, his slender eyebrows narrowed slightly, "That bastard Lin Yuanqi won't die so easily, he's either at sea or he's already found a place to stay, you send someone along the road where the accident happened Find places separately, don't worry about those people from the Green Gang, you take my people there."

Awen nodded, "I brought over the communicator that Chen Zhao had been carrying all the time. According to him, before the accident, he was still talking to Brother Qi. At that time, Brother Qi was with Brother Jiu. On the other side of the boat, after Chen Zhao found the lifeboat, he wanted to find the two of them, but the communicator was already disconnected."

"Something might have happened in the middle." Lin Yuanqi and his little lover are very skilled, and they won't have any problem dealing with the ordinary one or two, not to mention that there were so many people at the gate of Jueya last time, they couldn't do anything to get them, if it wasn't halfway If they encounter obstacles, they should be able to escape smoothly.

Jiang Heng frowned suddenly, "Where's Lin Yuanxiang?"

Awen's complexion changed, and he gritted his teeth and said, "He is dealing with the follow-up matter this time, and I am afraid that he will exchange fire with Solo." On the surface, it seems that the pirates from Solo's side attacked the cruise ship this time , because I received the news, I planned to rob the cruise ship and take some hostages back.

The Solo Pirates are a group of very fierce bandits on the high seas. They fight guerrilla warfare with the governments of various countries all the year round. This time it actually moved on the head of the Taoist priest.

Jiang Heng sneered, picked up a grape and put it in the palm of his hand. He squinted his eyes and asked A Wen, "Do you think the Solo pirates would run so far to rob a cruise ship after eating so much? Just stared at a cruise ship, and finally sank the whole ship?"

"No." But the facts are there, but... why Master Lin left first, why Lin Yuanxiang could directly board the boat after the accident, and landed safely, but Brother Qi's life or death is still uncertain.The more Ah Wen thought about it, the colder his face became, he was indeed a member of the Green Gang, but his life was saved by Lin Yuanqi. Compared to the Green Gang, Lin Yuanqi was his real boss.

Jiang Heng peeled the skin of the grapes slowly, and said slowly, "Even you know that the Solo Pirates are not so boring, how could people on the road not guess, this time the incident is obviously aimed at some people on that ship. People, Young Master Qi is also one of them." But there are still some things that Jiang Heng didn't want to understand, such as how did Lin Yuanxiang connect with those people, and he would use such a big hand, just to deal with Lin Yuanqi alone?

A look of worry flashed across Ah Wen's face, Brother Qi...

Jiang Heng threw the grapes into his mouth, wiped his mouth and fingers slowly with a tissue, and leaned back on the sofa with his eyes squinted.

"I know what you are worried about. The most urgent thing is to go to sea to search. Only when people are rescued can we have a plan." He snorted softly, "The scourge will last for thousands of years, that bastard Lin Yuanqi will not die so easily."

Ah Wen nodded, but he was not as optimistic as Jiang Heng in his heart. It has been three days, even if Brother Qi and the others were still alive before, but the temperature at sea is so low, and there is no water or food. In case of a storm, it will be even worse. are you coming?

The island life of Zhao Xiu and Lin Yuanqi was not so easy.

During the day, Zhao Xiu would go to the edge of the forest to find some edible things. Lord Yin once taught him how to identify wild food, and said that he would always come in handy after learning these things. Unexpectedly, the words came true.

It's just that they have eaten almost all the edible fruits on the island these days, and if they don't go deep into this forest in the future, it will be a problem to even fill their stomachs.

Zhao Xiu took the fruit and returned to the rotten wood. Lin Yuanqi was sitting there studying the communicator and lighter in his hand. This was the only thing they had that could be used. The pistol on Zhao Xiu had already been thrown away. to the sea.

Throwing two of the fruits in his arms to Lin Yuanqi, Zhao Xiu sat on the other side.

After that night, Lin Yuanqi's injury gradually improved unexpectedly. Not only did the fever subside, but the wound was still slowly improving. Zhao Xiu couldn't help but say a few cold words to him. He raised his eyebrows, but he didn't even refute.

The two gnawed on the fruit in silence. Zhao Xiu was used to the harsh environment, so he didn't take it seriously when he swallowed sour and unpalatable things, but Lin Yuanqi, who didn't seem to have suffered such torture, could swallow it without changing his expression. All of this surprised Zhao Xiu.

Lin Yuanqi put down the communicator in his hand, looked at Zhao Xiu, "You seem surprised?"

Zhao Xiu waved his hand and threw out the leftover fruit core.

"I thought Shao Qi was used to delicacies from mountains and seas, and it would be hard for him to swallow them. Unexpectedly, this sour and bitter fruit is also to your taste."

"Do you think it's my turn to be picky at this time? It's just to fill your stomach, and it's the same for everything." Lin Yuanqi's face was indifferent.

"Someone once told me that a successful man is often desperate, but a desperate man may not be successful. Which one is Qi Shao?"

"My life doesn't conflict with what I want." Lin Yuanqi glanced at Zhao Xiu, "Which one are you?"

Zhao Xiu's face was calm, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "Some things are worth sacrificing for."

"for example?"

"There is no example, maybe one day I think of it, and I will tell you."

"You should speak while you can." Lin Yuanqi suddenly turned his head to stare at Zhao Xiu, "Otherwise, the opportunity is gone."

Zhao Xiu frowned, and suddenly felt that the meaning of his words was not simple.

Lin Yuanqi got up, walked to the beach, looked at the gradually darkening sky, "The storm is coming."
