In the woods at the southeastern end of this long, nameless island, Wei Ran, after a lot of work, finally dug a grave that was barely big enough to put the moose carcass in. On the beach outside the woods, the two captains
They also used steel helmets to dig a trench just big enough to bury the coconuts.
After resting for a while, Wei Ran put away his engineering shovel, left the woods and stepped onto the beach on the east coast of the island.
Compared with the west coast, the beach here is much cleaner. Wherever you look, the only harvest is a few dead trees that cannot be moved at all.
Empty-handed, they joined Captain Evans and others. At this time, they had buried all the coconuts they could find at the junction of the beach and the woods.
After some discussion, the four people worked together to take off the three body armors on the moose's body, and then they carried him into the grave dug by Wei Ran.
"If there is a chance to survive, we must bring him back to the United States."
Captain Evans murmured his promise, and was the first to scoop up the white sand with his helmet, and gently covered the moose carcass.
"I've already blown the whistle for you," Sterling muttered to himself in the same way, then scooped up the white sand with his helmet and sprinkled it on.
Wei Ran and Hawks looked at each other, each holding sand to help bury the moose carcass.
When the grave pit was completely filled, Evans used his ax to personally carve the moose's full name and the words USS Johnston DD-557 on the trunk of a silver leaf tree next to the grave pit.
"let's go"
Evans sighed, put away the ax and walked back, saying, "We need to clean the body armor and wear it as soon as possible. Unfortunately, there are four of us but only three pieces of body armor."
"We need weapons more than body armor." Sterling couldn't help but said, "But we don't even have bows and arrows now."
"I can make bows and arrows."
Hawkes unexpectedly replied, "Before joining the army, I even often hunted with my father using a bow and arrow I made myself."
"I almost forgot, we have a real Indian boy."
Captain Evans sat down in the shadows at the edge of the woods and asked with a smile, "Hawkes, with the materials we have, can you make a lethal bow and arrow?"
"I can try"
Hawks scratched his sunburned cheeks, "But this takes time. Even if I don't do anything, it will probably take two or three days."
"In this case, the making of weapons will be left to you."
Evans said and looked at Weiyan, "Victor, how about you keep an eye on the two pilots and help Hawks collect the materials he needs?"
"No problem" Wei Ran agreed happily.
"I'll be responsible for collecting survival supplies. Sterling, how about you be responsible for building the shelter?" Evans turned around and continued arranging the work.
"My pleasure"
Sterling said, handing the sailor's whistle that had been hanging around his neck to Wei Ran, "Blow the whistle as soon as you encounter danger."
After taking the whistle and Wei Ran was about to say something, Evans pointed to the body armor placed with the supplies in the distance and said, "Three body armor vests, one for each of you. I won't use it, I'm going to
Walk further along the beach and see if you can find anything useful. Hawks, give me the fishing gear and I'll try to catch something."
"In that case, let me give you this," Wei Ran said, taking off the toad mirror and handing it to Evans.
At the same time, Hawkes also took off his shirt, took off the fishing gear bag that was worn on his chest like a sling, and took the large folding knife out of it, and then handed it over.
To Captain Evans.
"This is much more useful than a body armor."
Evans happily took the sunglasses from Wei Ran, then took the fishing gear bag, hung it on his chest and patted it, "Okay, gentlemen, let's start taking action after you have had enough rest."
As he spoke, Evans stood up first, holding on to the tree trunk, and walked alone along the beach that was almost submerged in the sea.
Seeing this, Sterling immediately picked up the umbrella rope and umbrella cloth he brought back, selected a few trees in the forest next to the beach, and started clearing the bushes with an axe, preparing to build a resting shelter.
"Let's go too"
Hawks greeted Wei Ran, stood up and walked towards the narrow woods behind him. As for the heavy body armor with a strong smell of corpses, he didn't touch it.
After all, they are still trembling when walking, so there is really no need to put extra burden on themselves.
"Victor, do those recruiters really know how to eat people?"
Hawks waited until Vice-Captain Sterling behind him was blocked by bushes and bushes, then asked in a low voice in disbelief.
"real"
Wei Ran paused and asked while observing the surroundings, "Do you remember the owner of the Ferraro weapons store I mentioned when we just met at sea?"
"Remember" Hawks licked his lips, "and the striptease bar opposite the store. You promised to take me to see the beauty of white women."
"I will definitely take you to see it."
Wei Ran paused and continued, "The owner of that weapons store is called Tom. As I said, he is a military chaplain."
"I remember." Hawks bent down and picked up two feathers, looked at them, handed them to Wei Ran and told him to put them in his bag, "I still remember you said you have a black friend."
"right"
Wei Ran nodded and put the feathers into his bag and said, "In addition to our black friends, we also have a white stretcher-bearer friend and a white bulldozer driver. I want to talk about that driver. His name is Marshall.
One of his good friends was eaten by the recruiter."
In the middle of speaking, Wei Ran and Hawks stopped in unison, and both of them looked outside the woods.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After looking at each other, the two slowed down and walked gently towards the edge of the woods.
Through the cover of the trees, the two of them could clearly see that only forty or fifty meters away, the pilot Jiro was kneeling on the beach, holding a peeled coconut with both hands on a piece of the beach.
The stone was knocked feebly up and down.
After taking out the telescope and taking a look at it, Wei Ran handed it to Hawks and whispered, "Look at the white canvas bag next to the stone. The pistol is placed there."
"I saw it. I haven't seen that canvas bag before, and it doesn't look like Mr. Sterling's sailor bag."
Hawkes, who was holding a telescope, reacted very quickly and said, "If this pistol is here, does that mean Mr. Akira has no weapon at all?"
"Not only is Akira's foot disabled, but don't forget, he also suffers from chronic dysentery and takes drugs every day."
Wei Ran took the telescope returned by the other party, pointed at the young pilot who was busy eating coconut meat outside, and reminded in a low voice, "Akira is not convenient to move, so the food collection work can only be done by the pilot on the beach.
Take responsibility."
"In other words, they need to be separated frequently?" Hawks immediately understood Wei Ran's hint.
"And Akira is very worried about accidents happening to his companions, because he knows very well that there is no way he can survive on his own."
Wei Ran paused and continued, "So he must give weapons to his companions for self-defense."
"In other words, we have many opportunities to deal with Akira." Hawks licked his cracked lips, "But the important thing is how to get its weapons."
"Get your bow and arrows ready as soon as possible"
Wei Ran stepped back and said, "With the bow and arrow, we have a chance to deal with the pilot outside."
"Actually no bow and arrow is needed"
Hawks stepped back and said confidently, "I can hit it with a flying ax."
"You are shaking when you walk now. Are you sure you can throw the ax on his head accurately?"
Faced with Wei Ran's question, Hawks sighed and changed the subject with some disappointment, "Even if we kill them, how long can we hold on on this island?"
"It's better than being eaten by them," Wei Ran stopped and said, "I'll keep an eye on him here. If there's danger, I'll blow the whistle."
"be safe"
After Hawks finished speaking, he leaned against the beach on the other side of the island, holding the large folding knife and looking for food that could be used to make bows and arrows alone.
When the opponent's figure was also blocked by vegetation, Wei Ran also touched the edge of the forest again and once again secretly looked at the pilot Jiro.
At this time, he had finished eating the coconut and was sitting on the rock looking at the sea in the distance in a daze. The 1911 pistol was also held in his hand again.
Putting down the telescope, Wei Ran took out his camera bag, put on a super telephoto lens, pointed it at the other person, and pressed the shutter button.
While he was waiting patiently, Jiro was dazed for a while, then he held the pistol in one hand and dragged the bulging canvas bag that seemed to contain two coconuts with the other hand, and laboriously walked towards the direction he came from.
Seeing this, Wei Ran also put away his telescope, raised his camera and found Hawks in the distance.
What he didn't expect was that in such a short time, Hawkes' left hand was already holding several slender wooden sticks and several feathers, and his right hand was actually holding a coconut tied with a parachute rope.
Crab! And his sunburnt face could not help but reveal a look of ecstasy.
Seizing the opportunity to take a photo of the other party, Wei Ran put away his camera and camera bag and ran towards the other party along the beach outside the woods.
"Victor!"
After Hawks saw Wei Ran, he immediately shouted in a low voice and at the same time waved the crimson and purple coconut crab in his hand as if to show off.
Looking closer, this coconut crab is quite big. Its length is probably about the same as an adult's calf, and its two large claws are also about the size of a palm.
"Where did you catch it?" Wei Ran asked in surprise as he took the coconut crab from the other party.
"there"
Hawks pointed behind him, "I caught it just as it opened a coconut. I helped it eat the coconut and brought it back by the way."
"It will definitely thank you"
After Wei Ran finished speaking, he noticed that there was a can in the other party's pocket that was not too big, but looked very familiar to him. The problem was, inside the can that was sealed with an umbrella cloth, there was something inside.
Hiding from a hermit crab as big as a fist!
"I just found this little guy after I separated from you."
Hawkes took out the can and showed it to Wei Ran, "I named it Halsey, and I decided to keep it."
"Halsey?" Wei Ran smiled, "Given this name, it will run around."
"Eat it if you dare to run around." Hawks grinned and stuffed his pet back into his coat pocket, took the coconut crab from Wei Ran's hand, and walked back while asking, "Then
Where is the pilot?"
"Already gone back"
Wei Ran bent down and picked up some dry branches and put them under his arm. He walked back and said, "You have gained more than him. He seemed to have only picked up two coconuts just now."
"We have twice as many people as they do"
Hawks said worriedly, "And this island is too small. I'm worried about how many people there are enough supplies on the island to feed."
"When they also realize this problem, we will be really in danger." Wei Ran murmured and sighed, almost having a premonition of what would happen in the future.
