alien island

Chapter 14 Brutal Reality

There was silence in the cave, and after a while, someone slowly spoke, asking what should be done with these corpses.If these corpses are placed in a cave environment with them, they will not accept it. One is because it is too scary to stay with these corpses, and the other is who knows whether these corpses will have any virus infection. .

It was originally said that all these corpses would be cremated, but it had started to rain outside the cave, and it was inconvenient to find dry wood to light a fire at this time.So someone proposed to throw the corpse outside first, and separate it from the living.But the man who just lost his wife couldn't accept that his wife's body was treated like this.

In the end, everyone had to come up with a compromise method. They built a simple shed beside the stone wall outside the cave to shelter from the wind, and piled up the corpses there first, and then disposed of the corpses after the rain stopped the next day.

As a policeman, Liu Rong, who likes to be the leader in everything, took Zhao Xiangguo and others to build a shed outside.After the shed was quickly set up, before it was completely dark and the rain had just started, other people were arranged to carry out the corpses in the cave one by one.

The number of people decreased so much at once, and Zhang Yao, who had to help if he didn't help, found some leaves and some clothes left by the dead survivors on the ground, and wrapped them around the sticky corpses on the ground so that they could be lifted up. , he and Pei Yan were responsible for the head and foot of the corpse, and slowly carried the corpse outside.

The corpse was transported to a simple shed made of twigs and large leaves, and Pei Yan stared at the corpse, and suddenly said: "Assimilation."

"Assimilation? What do you mean?" Turning around and walking back, Zhang Yao asked casually.

Raising his hand, he pointed to the meat that was thrown outside the cave. All the meat was eaten, leaving only the huge empty shell scallop, which was the culprit of this disaster.Then he pointed at the corpse that was still soaked with gray thick liquid, Pei Yan opened his mouth, but continued to repeat the two words: "Assimilation."

"..." Zhang Yao seemed to understand but also didn't understand what Pei Yan meant. Did he mean that those who ate shell meat would also be assimilated by shells?

"This thing can assimilate people? Is it really possible?" Zhang Yao wondered, while recalling that the place he was staying in was indeed not a normal place.This island seems to have that possibility for anything to happen.Shrugging his shoulders, Zhang Yao had nothing to say. These people are already like this. It is useless to say more now. It is better to continue to help carry out the corpses inside.

After all the corpses were carried out of the cave, the slime on the ground in the cave was washed away by the people who stayed in the cave with sea water, and covered the ground with a pile of leaves.Looking at the corner of the cave where there were many people lying there, it became empty at this moment, and I couldn't help but feel complicated.Unexpectedly, in just a few days, there were originally so many survivors, but now less than half of them are left.

Leaning against the stone wall of the cave and roasting by the fire, Zhang Yao dried his rain-soaked clothes and trousers, occasionally raised his head, looked around the cave, and counted the remaining people.In addition to him and Pei Yan, the little girl Ke Yiqiao, the second-generation official young master Xiang Chen, who claims to be a policeman, Liu Rong, the police chief, Zhao Xiangguo, the doctor's assistant Lu Boming, and the man who just lost his wife and doesn't know his name... Men, these are eight people, plus the middle-aged woman coaxing the child in her arms and another taciturn man of about forty, the total is eleven people.

Out of the original 20 or so, there are only eleven people left today. It is really tragic enough. Everyone was hit by nature without any power to fight back, and they were completely defeated.

Sneering in his heart, Zhang Yao, resting against the stone wall with his hands crossed on his forehead, suddenly recalled in his mind the expression of the dying pregnant woman, the poor mother who just wanted to keep her child, struggling in pain when she was dying.Involuntarily, that scene also reminded Zhang Yao of his own mother, the strong mother who had been worrying about him all the time, how she finally died of illness...

Thinking of his mother's death from illness made Zhang Yao feel very bad. He tried to distract himself and relieve the pain in his heart.Zhang Yao glanced to the side, and saw Pei Yan, who was rarely quiet beside him, sitting with his back to him, the clothes on his body revealed a dark color, darker than the original black of the clothes.Zhang Yao took a closer look and found that it was not a trace of getting wet with water, so he immediately turned around from the lying position and sat up, and asked Pei Yan, "What's the matter with your back?"

Hearing that Zhang Yao was asking him something, he took the remaining branch in his hand and threw it into the fire. Pei Yan replied with a normal expression, "Bite."

"You were bitten?" Hearing the answer, Zhang Yao straightened up even more, and waved in Pei Yan's direction: "Come on, come here and let me see what's going on."

Hearing this, Pei Yan took off the black zipper shirt that Zhang Yao wore on him, revealing his strong and generous back. There was a long cut on the top of the back, and the blood was still flowing, while Pei Yan's waist and abdomen in front There is also a bloody hole in the position.

"How did this happen?"

"Turn around and row." Injury is something that happens sometimes, and Pei Yan doesn't think his wound is serious, anyway, the bleeding will stop after a while.

Zhang Yao looked at the exaggerated scratch on Pei Yan's back, and thought of the huge snake-shaped strange fish in the sea. It seemed that it was indeed not that easy to deal with. Yan was injured, because it was covered by the blood of the fish, and now that he was on the shore, the blood on Pei Yan's body gradually seeped out.

Staring at the wound that Pei Yan himself ignored, Zhang Yao sneered, and said, "Ha, I thought you were strong, but you were injured in the end? You deserve it for being careless." After speaking, Zhang Yao turned over and continued to bake his fire.

And Pei Yan, who was laughed at by Zhang Yao, lowered his head and looked at the ground and began to reflect seriously. It is true that he was a little careless when he was injured this time.Because he doesn't often fight giant monsters in the sea, he didn't expect the resistance of the water to slow down his speed and strength, making him despised in front of his partner, because his own ability is too weak, and there is no other excuse.In the future, he must become stronger and work harder, so that his partner will not look down on him and abandon him to choose someone else.In order to make Zhang Yao value him more, Pei Yan secretly thought about how to make himself stronger.

Zhang Yao, who seemed indifferent and even laughed at Pei Yan for a while, turned his back to Pei Yan and silently warmed the fire. After half a minute, a sentence popped up: "I don't care about your injury?"

"Just lick it." Lifting his arm, Pei Yan stretched out his tongue and casually licked another bloody cut on his arm, and replied.

"...MD, where can you lick the wounds on your back and waist?" With veins popping out, Zhang Yao turned to face Pei Yan.He was very speechless about what Pei Yan said.

"You help me lick..."

Before Pei Yan finished speaking, Zhang Yao slammed his fist on the forehead: "Get out! Who will lick you!"

"..."

"..."

The two faced each other and fell silent for a while before Zhang Yao slowly opened his mouth and said, "Besides the spider thing you found that can sterilize and stop bleeding, do you know anything else in this hole that can stop bleeding?"

"..."

Looking around at the various plants and fruits collected in the cave, Pei Yan pointed to a fruit with a special cyan shell among the pile of fruits stored in the cave, and then glanced at Zhang Yao.

In the end, Zhang Yao, who had originally laughed at Pei Yan for being injured by the strange fish, helped Pei Yan to bandage his wound, chewed up the extremely astringent peel, spat it in his hand, and smeared it on Pei Yan's wound place.Zhang Yao lowered his head, and tore the cloth at the hem of his clothes into strips, and used it as a bandage, so that the herbs bound to Pei Yan's body would not be knocked off.Pei Yan, who was tall and straight, sat obediently on the ground, bent over, and let Zhang Yao help him bandage and treat his injuries.

The two were talking while treating the wound, and Pei Yan told Zhang Yao the scene where he saw Lu Boming in the sea while everyone was not paying attention, and his expression changed strangely.Zhang Yao raised his head and glanced at the person they were discussing. Lu Boming, who was being discussed, was talking to the hot-blooded policeman on the other side of the cave wall, with a natural expression on his face.

Lowering his head again, Zhang Yao continued to bandage, and said to Pei Yan: "These people, who knows whether they are good or bad. In order to survive, everyone will become dangerous and terrifying in order to protect themselves. However, I do I don’t like the feeling of this group of people very much, and tomorrow I plan to go to the interior of the island to see if there is any other way out.”

"I, too." Pei Yan immediately replied when he heard that Zhang Yao was leaving.

"Ha, whatever you want." Lifting the corners of his lips and showing an arrogant smile, Zhang Yao himself actually thought that if he and Pei Yan acted together, they could trust each other and be much safer.Compared with other people here, he still trusts this person who is more pure than other survivors.

"What are you talking about? Ah! Brother Pei Yan, you are injured!" Ke Yiqiao, who quietly approached, saw Pei Yan, who was being bandaged and treated for the wound, with bloodstains on his body. Ke Yiqiao was a little scared Stop it, after all, just now so many people had misfortune, she didn't want and was afraid to see accidents happen to people she knew and knew well.

"It's okay, he is a big man, this injury is nothing, we were just discussing the topic of leaving tomorrow." Zhang Yao patted Pei Yan's shoulder vigorously with his hands, proving that Pei Yan's physical fitness is excellent, and motioned to Ke Yi Fortunately, you don't have to worry so much.

"You want to leave? Why? Didn't you wait for the rescue team to come to us?" Ke Yiqiao heard that Zhang Yao and the others were leaving, and immediately showed a reluctance expression on his face.

"I'll clarify this matter with everyone tomorrow morning. In fact, it's more practical to find the way by yourself than to wait here." For a while, he couldn't explain the spectacular scene he saw at the bottom of the sea today, and what he felt in his heart. Thinking about those speculations, I thought that everyone was tired and worried all day today, and some things should be explained clearly to everyone after everyone has had enough rest.

"Ah...then, brother Zhang Yao and I, let's go together!" After thinking for a while, Ke Yiqiao seemed to have made up his mind, and said suddenly.

"Ha, you little girl, why do you want to go with us? You don't stay with the police uncle? He feels more secure than me?" Zhang Yao laughed jokingly.

Shaking her head, Ke Yiqiao replied seriously: "Compared to him, I still prefer to follow you."

"Then... okay." Looking at this little girl is quite pleasing to the eye, coupled with Ke Yiqiao's pleading eyes staring at him all the time, Zhang Yao scratched his head as if it was an extra burden.

"Great! Thank you brother Zhang Yao!" Standing up happily, he wanted to jump straight on Zhang Yao. Pei Yan, who had been sitting on the ground and had not made a sound, suddenly raised his head and gave a warning look, and his body shrank back in fright. , smiled shyly, Ke Yiqiao stood up and patted the ashes on his pants, and said, "Then I'll go to bed first, good night, brothers."

"Go, go." Zhang Yao waved his hand perfunctorily.

Ke Yiqiao also waved her hand in response, and quietly went back to sleep.

At this time, they didn't realize that their conversation just now had already been heard by the ears on the side.

However, Pei Yan, who is the most sensitive to the surrounding environment, had already noticed the sneaky bystander, but seeing that the person was not threatening, he didn't bother to point it out...
