"No! Absolutely not." Jones Xiang trotted up to Gu Nansheng and opened his arms to stop him, "I don't allow you to look for it!"
Gu Nansheng smiled bitterly, "Why are you so nervous? You are meddling in things, just like my girlfriend."
Jones Xiang didn't blush this time, her face was serious, even a little panicked. She bit her lower lip and firmly stopped Gu Nansheng with both arms, "Promise me not to look for it, otherwise I won't get out of the way."
Gu Nansheng avoided Jones and said, "The matter is not as serious as you think."
As soon as he took a step forward, his sleeve was pulled violently by Jones. When he turned around, he saw tears flashing in her eyes, and she begged softly, "Please, don't look for it, okay?"
She was so scared at this time that she didn't even notice that Gu Nansheng had gradually become her support since she was lost in the Canyon of Despair.
Without him, she would have died countless times on the road. She would have died in the valley because she ran out of medicine, she would have died of thirst because there was no fresh water, and she would have been skewered into grilled fish by the Naga tribe.
And with him around, she didn't have to worry along the way, all the problems would be solved by him.
Although she always knew that she could die at any time, because of his presence, she always had the illusion that death was still far away.
And now, he is about to embark on this road of no return. The moment he pulls out Frostmourne, his owner will also become evil. So what should she do?
If death is mentioned, she is not very afraid, but she is afraid of living alone on this island, which is more terrifying than death.
"I want to go. I have an intuition. If we find this sword, we can return to Duota Continent and Biluo City." Gu Nansheng rarely does things he is not sure of, but this time he must take a risk because he retreated the same way he came.
Going back is also death.
I just hope that his reasoning is correct, and that the vague call is well-intentioned.
Gu Nansheng is at least 70% sure.
In fact, he didn't mind falling into evil, but he didn't want to lose himself and become a tool of the Lich King like Arthas.
He is not afraid that life will be full of tragedy. What he is afraid of is that life will end in tragedy.
Jones's voice was so pitiful, "No, please, no, let's go back the way we came, okay?"
Gu Nansheng had to admit that women are natural lobbyists, especially beauties with beautiful voices. Even he couldn't bear to refuse her anymore. He wiped away Jones Xiang's tears with his fingers, "Okay, I promise you, if
If you find another way to leave, I won't touch that sword."
Hearing this promise, Jones Xiang was relieved. She had the urge to hold Gu Nansheng's tear-wiping hand and put it on her face. However, she could not muster the courage.
However, this warm atmosphere was destroyed by a cold voice, "Stupid woman, your man's heart has been corrupted by evil. He is dominated by desire. Sooner or later he will find the sword that bewitches the soul. Sooner or later he will degenerate into
The undead, you can't stop him, he is determined to give up, hehehe..."
Charybdis's maniacal laughter echoed on the empty beach, like a spell, deeply engraved in Jones's heart, making her feel frightened and uneasy...
As night fell, Luna had woken up from a coma. She drank some wolf blood, and her body was still very weak. Jones Xiang also suppressed the feeling of nausea and drank a little. Even if it was wolf blood, there was not much left.
.
Throughout the whole day, they didn't see any green at all. All along the way they came were rocks and beaches of the same color.
I have never seen such a barren mountain range or such an ocean without any fish.
Later, Gu Nansheng learned that this island was very close to the place where the Well of Eternity erupted. The Eternal Whirlpool left behind after the Well of Eternity erupted (see the official history of Warcraft for details) was not far to the east of the island. The surging energy and countless
The undercurrent makes fish and shrimp disappear.
In the evening, several people lit a bonfire by the beach and roasted the leftover wolf meat from last night. Although the wolf was small, it weighed dozens of kilograms, which was enough for them to eat for many days.
Fortunately, when they were in the Canyon of Despair, there were stone forests everywhere and firewood was hard to find, so the three of them stored some firewood in their inventory.
Charybdis did not eat or drink, and huddled alone in a dark corner of the rock. As a mermaid, she did not need fresh water at all. All creatures in the ocean could drink seawater directly because they had a special type of salt-removing cells in their bodies.
"You won't have the strength to run away if you're starving. If I'm not wrong, you're going to run away while we're asleep tonight. How can you do it if you don't eat enough?" Gu Nansheng shook the wolf leg bone in his hand at Charybdis.
.
Charybdis didn't seem to notice, just tilted his head and ignored Gu Nansheng.
"I won't eat. I didn't want to feed you in the first place. There's so little food..." Gu Nansheng muttered, cracking the wolf's bones on the rocks and sucking out the marrow inside.
After everyone had finished eating, Gu Nansheng started tinkering alone again. He filled a pot of sea water, set it on the bonfire to burn, and then took another pot and put it on top.
"What are you doing?" Jones asked while wiping her face with a towel dipped in seawater. Although salt is not good for her skin, she really couldn't stand the feeling of being dirty and sticky all day long.
"You'll know after a while."
"You don't have to boil water to take a bath, we don't have much firewood." Jones Xiang really wants to take a good bath now, but unfortunately the conditions don't allow it. As for washing in the sea, one reason is that it is not good for the skin, and the second reason
, and the more important reason was that she was afraid of being attacked by the Naga tribe. She would definitely not take a bath under Gu Nansheng's nose. Instead, she would have to choose a place where no one was around. If she was really attacked by the Naga tribe, she would not even be able to take a bath.
If no one comes out, there will be no one. After all, Jones doesn't know how to swim.
Soon the water boiled, and the sound of water boiling could be heard under the pot.
After a while, Gu Nansheng took off the pot that was upside down. By the light of the fire, he could clearly see the crystal clear water droplets inside the pot.
Gu Nansheng's face was full of joy, and he carefully drained the water drops together and poured them into the water bag.
Then, he put the pot back again.
"what are you doing?"
"Try it." Gu Nansheng handed the water bag to Jones Xiang.
She took a sip of it doubtfully, with a look of disbelief on her face, "This is... fresh water? How did you do it?"
Seeing Jones Xiang's surprised look, Gu Nansheng was speechless for a while. On Earth, this was something that even elementary school students understood, but here, he didn't know how to explain it...
"Is it magic?" It was Luna who was asking. Originally, she always acted as if the matter had nothing to do with her. But this time, when she saw this "miracle", she became interested and took care of her.
There was a hint of admiration in Nan Sheng's eyes.
"Tell me, don't be so stingy." Jones was very excited. She only had one thought now. If she had water, it would prove that she could survive. And if he could survive, he wouldn't have to touch the Frostmourne.
This is more important than anything else.
Gu Nansheng didn't know how to explain, so he touched his chin, trying to find an excuse to excuse himself, "Well... just let me touch here and I'll tell you."
Jones lowered her head and saw Gu Nansheng's fingers pointing at her plump breasts. Her face suddenly turned green. "You... you go to hell!"
The sound of fighting and laughter floated on the beach, and even Luna's mouth curved slightly when she saw this scene. Water - the hope of survival, it brings survival to desperate people.
of joy.
Unfortunately, firewood was limited, and even after burning all the firewood, I could only save less than a water bag of water.
But at least there is hope. Gu Nansheng doesn't believe it. There is no forest on the entire island. As long as there are woods, there will be firewood, and if there is firewood, there will be fresh water.
After collecting fresh water, Gu Nansheng wanted to continue on his way. After Luna woke up and could walk by herself, Jones Xiang felt much more relaxed. However, a new problem came again.
Charybdis, she is a mermaid, has no legs, and always walks on the tail of a fish.
Although the beach is soft, after walking for a whole afternoon, her beautiful fish tail has been bruised and bloody by the sand. Now when she walks, there will be a faint blood trail behind her body.
"Luo... uh... Jay Chou, look at her..." Jones pulled Gu Nansheng's sleeve, her expression a little unnatural because of lying. She pointed at Charybdis. She wanted to help her just now, but she was
Refused.
"What are you looking at? What can I do? She doesn't want anyone's help."
"She is so pitiful, and it's all because of us..."
"Because of us? Please, they asked for it. You have to pity her and let her go. Do you believe that she will turn around and lead the Naga army to chop us into pieces and feed us to the fish."
Jones stopped talking. In fact, Gu Nansheng really didn't have any good ideas.
"Hey, mermaid, do you want me to carry you?" Gu Nansheng shouted to Charybdis.
"I'd rather die!"
Gu Nansheng shrugged, "You heard it all, she said she would rather die."
Jones was silent for a while, then took off his coat and handed it to Charybdis, "Wrap it up, it will make you feel better."
Charybdis turned her head away and refused to accept Jones's clothes, "There's no need to be pretentious, we Nagas will never accept charity from our enemies!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk." Gu Nansheng shook his head and walked around Charybdis, "I heard that if the mermaid clan has sex with humans, the fish tail will turn into legs. I don't know if it is true. How about I help you?
