"Zhongyi, where is that mysterious old man you always talk about? I've never seen him before." Jenny looked at me and asked. She looked at me with a strange look. I couldn't tell what kind of look it was.
, same as before, just very complicated.
"I've never seen it until now." Steamed Bun and the big man almost said the same thing. After they finished speaking, they looked at each other and neither of them peed on the other.
"You can't see him when you want to see him. When you don't want to see him anymore, he may come out naturally." Jiao Ba joked boredly.
I looked at Mr. Mai and said a very crucial sentence, "This small island should be the next stop we are looking for."
"Oh? Is it because of those strange black snakes?" Mr. Mai is such a master, he guessed my thoughts directly.
"Well, that black snake is exactly the same as the black snake in the forbidden area of the shipwreck. Doesn't that explain everything?" I firmly believe that this mysterious desert island is definitely the next stop destination.
"I think Brother Yi is right. The black snake is not an ordinary creature, and it cannot be such a coincidence." Jiao Ba also agreed with me.
Mr. Mai thought for a few seconds and then said, "It's not impossible, but we can't say it's dead yet. We can only investigate it ourselves."
"Well, it's time to take a closer look."
Li Xin didn't speak. I turned to look at her. Her eyes were staring at me. I smiled at her and said, "How are you? Are you okay? I was really worried just now."
She shook her head gently, but still didn't say a word. She just looked at me with a very special look, "What's wrong? Are you also scared to death?" I walked over and waved my hand in front of her.
Li Xin was not polite either. She knocked my hand away, her face returned to its previous cold look and said, "I'm fine, just now... thank you."
"You're welcome, aren't we a team?" I said with a smile. This woman is even more beautiful up close. Although she has been sleeping in the open air these days, her beauty remains unchanged and she is still so cool and charming.
Mr. Mai now greeted everyone and said, "Okay, okay, don't talk about these things for the time being. No matter who blew the sound, it temporarily helped Zhongyi and us. But then again,
It's hard to say what this person's intentions are and what kind of medicine he is selling in his gourd. Now that he has saved you, he may not be really helping you, so we'd better be careful."
"Well, I understand Mr. Mai. Before the matter is investigated clearly, that mysterious old man is still the enemy." I put away the diving knife and wiped the sweat from my face. My whole body was already soaked.
The taste is unpleasant.
"It's best to understand. The place we are in is extremely dangerous. The old man you are talking about is definitely not an ordinary person who can survive in this environment. You have all seen that in this barren mountain and island, apart from these strange and terrifying things,
Apart from the living things, there are the ghosts under the water, which is simply no place for people to stay." Mr. Mai seemed a bit irritable, he rarely talked so much.
"Let me tell you, according to what Zhongyi said, I feel that the old man is not a human at all, maybe he is a ghost." The big man said this again directly. This guy always encounters something.
If you don't understand something, just think about ghosts.
"Nonsense, what's the matter?" Li Xin snorted coldly, not giving the big man any face.
Mai Lao looked at the sky and said, "Okay, it's getting late. The mountain is going down ahead. Let's put these things aside for now and talk about it after we get up the mountain. The problem will be solved sooner or later."
"Well, let's go first." When we were about to go up the mountain, Jenny came over to me and said, "Zhongyi, what happened just now..."
"Okay, no need to say thank you, my ears are almost getting calloused." I smiled at her and said.
Jenny's face turned a little red and she said, "I hate it, how did you know I wanted to say thank you to you?"
"Because you have almost nothing to say to me, except thank you, thank you." I raised my eyebrows and glanced at her. This girl, besides saying thank you to me, had nothing else to say. If I had really died just now,
I don’t know if she can shed a tear for me.
"I'll tell you something else after we leave here." Jenny looked at me, turned around and left.
At this time, Jiao Ba said mischievously in my ear, "Brother Yi, I think you are interesting. This Jenny seems to be interested in you."
"What does it matter if there is or not? Life or death is not certain yet. How can I have time to think about this matter." I said angrily.
"What about Li Xin? I saw everything just now. The way she looked at you changed. You saved her this time, and I think it will change her previous view of you."
This grandson is not good at anything else, but I noticed that he was very good at this. I glared at him, stretched out my hand and pushed him, "Okay, okay, get out of here."
Just when we were about to set off, I suddenly noticed with my peripheral vision that there seemed to be a figure not far away to my right. I slowly turned my head, and sure enough, it was the shriveled old man again. This time
He was hiding behind a soul-destroying grass, with only half of his body exposed, staring at us.
The soul-destroying grass actually won't attack him. It seems that the strange sound of "Woo-Woo" just now must have been made by him. I always have a feeling that he seems to be reminding me of something, but I can't say it.
He must have his purpose in following me.
After I stared at him for a few seconds, I stood up and left. I don't know what he meant at the moment. Since he is willing to follow us, let him follow us.
A group of us passed through the area of soul-destroying grass, and after walking forward for a while, we finally walked out of the entire jungle. When we walked out of the jungle, the sea breeze blew on us again, and there were waves of coldness.
I shivered unconsciously and muttered, "It's so damn cold, why is the wind so strong?" I didn't feel it when I was in the jungle, but when I came out, it was obviously two temperatures, normal.
Generally speaking, the jungle should be shady and cool, but it's hot outside, but this damn place is just the opposite of other jungles.
"Yes, not only is the wind strong, but you see, it seems that the weather is going to change again." Mai Lao looked up at the sky and his expression became very bad.
I looked up and saw that the sky was getting dark. It was just dim before, but now it was completely dark. There was not a single star in the sky, but there were more and more dark clouds. It seemed like they were right above our heads.
It makes people feel depressed and nervous when they look at it.
From time to time, there was a slight thunder in my ears, shaking the whole island. "It looks like it's going to rain again. On this ghost island, it rains unless it's cloudy." I cursed depressedly.
"Oh my God, I finally came out." Jiao Ba took a deep breath and looked a little tired.
"Everyone, please be vigilant. Once we climb up the hillside in front, we will reach the bottom of the mountain." Mai Lao turned on the flashlight and looked around. Except for some trees, there was nothing else.
There is a hillside at the foot of the mountain. This hillside is not high, but the area is estimated to be quite large. I just don't know if the road is easy to walk, but don't let any messy things appear again.
I raised my head and took another look at the several peaks in front of me. As the distance got closer, my visual perception was obviously different, and the impact it brought to me was also different. I don’t know why, but it made me a little timid. The entire mountain peak was completely different.
There is a calm atmosphere of death, this feeling is very close to the two previous shipwrecks.
There are three peaks in front of us. Although it is very dark, we can still see the peaks clearly. There is one in the middle that is the highest, and the two peaks next to it are much lower.
Originally, this mountain peak should be very majestic and spectacular, but when you look at it again in this environment, it has completely changed. It has become very eerie and terrifying, just like the legendary vampire castle, surrounded by...
A mysterious and weird color.
There seems to be a very special smell in the air. I can't tell what it is, but it's so unpleasant that it's almost unbearable. But other people don't seem to smell it. Maybe I'm too sensitive.
illusion.
And when the sea breeze blows, the mountain peaks will howl like ghosts. It's really like being in a ghost land, shrouded in darkness, making people feel panicked.
"Everyone, don't be stunned. Let's go. The way up is the mountain." Mr. Mai greeted everyone to set off quickly.
Jiao Ba suddenly said, "I'm hungry again. Do any of you have anything to eat?"
"Why are you like a starving ghost? You cry out for hunger all the time?" This Jiaoba has been complaining about hunger since he came to the island.
"Please, Brother Yi, we haven't eaten anything for almost a day, aren't you hungry?" Jiao Ba said confidently.
In fact, I've been fucking hungry for a long time, but I've been starving to death during this dangerous journey. "I'm not hungry, and it's useless to be hungry. There's nothing to eat." That's all I could say.
, there is no food in my stomach, and my whole body is cold.
"Yeah, I've been hungry for a long time, but there's nothing to eat." The steamed buns came again, and like Jiao Ba, he kept complaining about being hungry.
"Mr. Mai, think of something, I won't have the strength to walk if this continues." Jiao Ba squatted directly on the ground, looking weak.
Jenny looked at Mai Lao and said, "Mao Lao, we have to think of a way. I think everyone has no strength." Jenny's face was also quite bad. The whole journey was so exhausting and no one could bear it without eating.
Mai Lao said with an embarrassed look, "I know, I'm also hungry, but there's nothing to eat on this deserted island."
Shunzi conjured up several doll fruits from nowhere, held them in his hands and said, "There must be no food left, now we only have this."
Jiao Ba grabbed one and said, "Hey, it's okay to have this thing. At least you won't starve to death." As he spoke, he cut one open with a knife, raised his neck and drank it all.
Let's share some for everyone so that we won't be so hungry for the time being.
I drank a few sips and gave it to Shunzi, "Where did you do this? Remember, didn't we drink up all the spare ones? This is really life-saving."
Shunzi smiled and said, "I secretly hid a few more that night, just for emergency use."
