When Lin Jue stood on the beach in a daze, Gao Muqing also came out of the cave. When she saw the corpses, her face suddenly showed sadness. These people were all personally selected by her, and it can be said that they are all trusted by her.
Although she and Lin Jue had been deliberately avoiding the topic of the whereabouts of these people, they knew in their hearts that they might not survive.
However, it was one thing to think in his heart, but it was another thing to see the body washed up on the shore by the sea. Tears welled up in Gao Muqing's eyes uncontrollably.
"They... have badges around their waists, look who they are." Gao Muqing said softly while sobbing.
Lin Jue rummaged around and found the badges of two people. They were two small leaders of the Guishan Island main village guard camp. One was named Hou Fang and the other was named Deng Yang. Gao Muqing knew them, and they were usually taciturn.
Yu but loyal, he is the guard leader responsible for guarding the perimeter of Juyi Hall in addition to the female guard camp. The other person is missing his waistband, so it is hard to tell who he is. Judging from his clothes and body bun, he is a woman.
Wei Yi. This made Gao Muqing even more sad.
Lin Jue held Gao Muqing in his arms and let her cry on his shoulder for a while. He comforted her for a long time before Gao Muqing stopped crying.
"Let's bury them," Gao Muqing said.
Lin Jue nodded in agreement, took off the remaining steel knife from one man's waist, and dug two large pits, one large and one small, at the edge of the forest. Gao Muqing stepped forward to help carry the body for burial, but saw Lin Jue's quick hands and feet.
Take off the clothes of the three of them.
"What are you doing?" Gao Muqing shouted.
Lin Jue kept moving his hands and feet and said: "We can't be naked. They came here naked and left naked. They won't blame us."
"That's a woman. Don't take off her clothes, otherwise she might not be able to rest in peace."
Lin Jue smiled bitterly and said: "But you have to wear clothes. Don't worry, I will use banana leaves to cover them. At this time, we can only act expediently. I'm sorry to you."
Lin Jue stripped the three of them down to their coverings and wrapped their bodies in banana leaves. The two men were placed in a large pit, and the female guard was placed in a small pit next to them. They pushed the sand and buried the three.
Went down, sharpened a branch, and built a simple monument. After that, we picked up a few dead fish and shrimps, filled some rainwater with shells, and brought them back to the cave.
The fish was roasted and the hot soup was cooked, but Gao Muqing was obviously so deep in sadness that she didn't even eat a bite. Lin Jue persuaded her in every possible way, so she only took a few mouthfuls of fish soup and then sat by the campfire without saying a word.
.
The rain outside started pouring again, as if the sky was leaking and the water from the Tianhe River was falling uncontrollably. The rain was pouring heavily outside, and the atmosphere in the cave was also very depressing. Gao Muqing fell down on the banana bed and fell asleep alone, while Lin Jue sat at the entrance of the cave.
After watching the rain for a while, I silently made a decision.
In the afternoon, Gao Muqing's mood improved. Lin Jue didn't blame her, because the scene on the beach in the early morning must have made Gao Muqing feel guilty. More than a hundred of his followers were buried in the sea, including many of her.
The female guard who has been following her for many years is of course feeling depressed.
Gao Muqing hadn't eaten for a day, and Lin Jue was also very anxious, so he went to the forest in the rain to catch a few snakes hiding in tree holes to avoid the rain. After cleaning them, he made snake meat soup with a large shell. Sure enough, Gao Muqing moved his index finger.
Ate a lot.
After eating and drinking, the sky darkened, and the two naturally hugged each other and started having fun like crazy. Lin Jue used some tricks to make Gao Muqing wet and ecstatic, and when he climaxed, he screamed loudly.
At this time, tears rolled down her eyes again. After the passion, Gao Muqing quickly fell asleep tiredly. Lin Jue hugged her body and closed her eyes to recuperate for a while. Seeing that Gao Muqing was sleeping soundly, she gently moved away.
She hugged her hands and feet and slowly stood up.
Lin Jue put on the dry clothes lightly, inserted the steel knife at his waist, and hung the tortoise box on his waist. When he was about to get out of the cave, he looked back at Gao Muqing's cute look curled up and sleeping there,
He came over and knelt beside her and kissed her gently on the face. After standing up, he plunged into the dark night rain without hesitation.
During the day, Lin Jue had already spotted a bamboo on the north side of the island. Although it was not thick enough, the bamboo that had never grown on the island was enough to build a bamboo raft. Lin Jue immediately started to use the dim light to build a bamboo raft.
The night light cut off dozens of thin bamboos with a knife, bundled them one by one, and tied them together. A bamboo raft gradually took shape. After adding a few driftwood washed up on the shore, and tying them with vines, the bamboo raft
Officially formed.
Lin Jue struggled to drag the bamboo raft to the beach. With the help of a rising tide, he pushed the bamboo raft into the water. The bamboo raft floated steadily on the water. Lin Jue looked back at the dark island and gritted his teeth.
Get on the bamboo raft, use a long pole to prop up the bamboo raft and row towards the sea.
However, just a dozen steps away from the beach, the bamboo raft heard Gao Muqing's anxious shouts from the woods.
"Lin Lang, Lin Lang, where are you? Where have you been? Don't scare me, where are you?"
Lin Jue held on to the bamboo pole hard and wanted the bamboo raft to leave the island quickly and go to the sea. However, the waves came in and the bamboo raft was very slow. Under the reflection of the sea water, his shadow was washed up on the beach by Gao Muqing.
I found Gao Muqing running towards me with flying hair and crying: "Lang Lang, what are you going to do? Are you going to abandon me?"
Lin Jue swung his pennies and hit the water hard. Gao Muqing stepped on the sea water and rushed over. Regardless of the turbulent tide, he ran until the sea water was submerged in his chest more than ten steps away. A big wave came, and the next moment Gao Muqing's body disappeared in the sea.
In Lin Jue's field of vision.
Lin Jue was shocked, jumped off the bamboo raft and swam over to save people. Finally, he saw Gao Muqing drifting with the tide more than ten steps away. Lin Jue grabbed her body. Gao Muqing hugged Lin Jue tightly and cried loudly:
"Are you going to abandon me? How could you do this? Lin Lang, how could you do this to me?"
Lin Jue shook his head and sighed: "I am not abandoning you, I am going to complete what I have not completed."
"What are you going to do?" Gao Muqing screamed.
"I'm going to make up for the mistakes I made. Mu Qing, you and I are hiding on this island just waiting to die. You also understand that after the hurricane, the pirates will come to search, and we will have no way to escape. This
That's all, your and my personal life and death are insignificant, but what about the big plan to suppress the bandits? What should we do? We came to Taohua Island to support Ning's navy's attack on the pirates. Now we are hiding on the desert island, Ning
How will the Navy attack?"
"But how can we help them at this time? We can't protect ourselves."
"Mu Qing, listen, Ning Haijun's tens of thousands of naval troops have already set off, and the hurricane has been blowing for two days. They should have arrived at the battlefield northwest of Taohua Island. If they don't know and rashly attack Taohua Island, there will be no
If they respond internally, they will suffer heavy losses. This is not a simple matter. Once Ning Haijun is defeated by Haidongqing and the hurricane passes, Haidongqing can capture Hangzhou because there are no troops to defend it. It will be a big battle.
What a disaster. Millions of people in Hangzhou will be destroyed by pirates. What will happen after Haidongqing takes over Hangzhou? And all of this is because of me. I offered this plan. We will die.
It's nothing, but it has caused the people of Hangzhou to suffer. Do you think I can just sit back and watch this?"
Gao Muqing raised her head and stared blankly at Lin Jue's excited face. She couldn't imagine what it was like.
"Mu Qing, we are waiting to die here anyway, so I want to give it a try. We are actually not far from Peach Blossom Island, and I have calculated the general direction. We went southeast that day, and the reef beach is two miles southeast of Peach Blossom Island.
Ten miles away, we encountered a hurricane storm there. Then we were washed to this island with the waves. This hurricane was also a southeasterly wind, so we actually drifted back towards Peach Blossom Island. It’s just that the ocean current may be slightly
Deviation, we may be in the wrong direction, I estimate that we may be not far southwest of Peach Blossom Island now. So there is a high possibility that I can find Peach Blossom Island."
"You want to go back to Peach Blossom Island, but what's the use? Can you accomplish anything by yourself?" Gao Muqing shouted.
Lin Jue caressed her pretty face and said: "I didn't consider whether it would succeed or not. At least I did my best. I couldn't let Ning Haijun attack the island without knowing it. At the very least, I could give a warning on the island.
, let Ning Haijun escape unscathed. I can't just wait for death here without doing anything. Do you understand what I'm thinking?"
Why did Gao Muqing not understand his intentions? He wanted to return to Peach Blossom Island with the mentality of failure or success. Even if he could not seize the landing dock, he still had to give Ning Haijun a warning to not attack rashly to avoid suffering a huge disaster.
Loss. Hai Dongqing already knew the news about Ning Haijun's attack. He may have laid a dragnet to wait for Ning Haijun. Lin Jue was worried that once Ning Haijun suffered a heavy blow, Hangzhou City would be attacked by Hai Dongqing. In that case,
Lin Jue thought that the consequences of this plan would be a huge catastrophe.
"But even if you want to go, you still ask me to go with you. How can you leave me alone on this island?" Gao Muqing shouted.
Lin Jue sighed: "Mu Qing, you are going to die with me. How can I let you die with me? I have already caused you so much, and I can't let you die with me anymore. If I can succeed, if Ning Haijun captures
Peach Blossom Island, then I can save you. If it fails, there is nothing to say. You and I will die after all. But you have a greater chance of escaping alone. Maybe you can seize the ship and escape. In short, you understand
, I am not leaving you alone, but I have to do this, and it is also for your own good."
Gao Muqing understood everything. Lin Jue was telling the truth. He would die if he stayed on the island. He might have a chance to survive if he tried. If he succeeded, he would not have to die. But the chance was too slim, almost equal to
He wanted to die, so he chose to act alone and stay on the island.
Gao Muqing was excited and angry at the same time. He stretched out his hand and beat Lin Jue's chest and cried: "What did you and I say before? You and I are one husband and wife, living and dying together. How can you break your promise? If you die,
Can I still live? You bastard."
Lin Jue hugged her tightly and advised: "Why go to die together? If there is a glimmer of life, why not seize it? Don't do this, listen to me and stay on the island."
"Don't even think about it!" Gao Muqing said angrily, breaking away from Lin Jue's arms and stumbling towards the bamboo raft not far away.
Lin Jue sighed and shouted loudly: "That's all, you and I will live and die together. Don't rush there. If there are two of us, the bamboo raft needs to be reinforced again."
