Chapter 45 Figures in the rainstorm

I didn't sleep all night, and I felt uneasy.

When she was hungry at night, Xu Wei even had a fever and kept talking nonsense.

I poured a lot of hot water into Xu Wei and covered her tightly with wolf skin to keep her warm.

Xiao Qiang and others couldn't sleep, so they all sat by the campfire with their legs crossed.

There is not much herbal powder left, and Xiao Qiang is thinking about going to the woods with me to find some more early tomorrow morning.

But who would have expected that it would rain heavily in the middle of the night.

The heavy rain was pouring down outside, and the cold wind from outside blew in along the hedge at the entrance of the cave.

Several women were gathered together covered with a bearskin.

I suddenly remembered that there were two short-legged birds and dried fish on the top of the mountain.

It was raining so hard and there was no shelter, so it would be a pity to shoot him to death.

We also dried the dried fish bit by bit, but now it was all wasted.

"I'll go out and catch those two birds, please don't move!"

After that, I took off my shirt and pants and rushed out of the cave.

The cold rain hit my body instantly, making me jump.

The rain hitting the rocks was not bad at first, but the rock walls to climb became a bit slippery.

I gritted my teeth and carefully stepped on the rocks, climbing little by little towards the top of the mountain.

When I climbed to the top of the mountain, I saw the two short-legged chickens trembling against the rocks.

In fact, these animals are pitiful when you think about it. If we weren't here, they would still be living happily, occasionally going to the woods to catch a few bugs, and living a worry-free life.

But when we show up, we not only want to eat their meat, but also force them to lay eggs for us. It is indeed a bit cruel.

But now we don't know how long we can live, so we can no longer be kind to them.

I caught these two short-legged birds, and then ran to the tree branch to grab the dried fish we had dried.

After I hung everything around my neck and was about to go back down the mountain to the cave, I suddenly noticed a vague figure on the beach at the foot of the mountain.

It was very dark, but the rain hitting the ground slightly reflected the light, so I was sure it must be a person.

But why is there anyone here in such heavy rain?

My first reaction was that it was Bai Wei and his group, but then I thought it was wrong.

When we had a group fight with them yesterday, almost all of them except a few women were injured.

It was raining so heavily, and they were injured and had no food or water. If they didn't find a good place to recuperate and go out in the rain like this, they would be seeking death!

But after watching it for a while, I felt that this figure was very strange.

He was very tall, and he was a little wobbly when he walked. He was holding something in his hand, and he seemed to be walking from the beach to the woods step by step.

I was a little surprised and didn't dare to make a sound. I protected the two short-legged chickens under my body and looked at the shadow quietly.

I saw the shadow slowly approaching the woods from the beach, and finally disappeared.

My heart almost jumped into my throat. After I saw him disappear, I carefully went down the mountain and returned to the cave.

After entering the cave and settling the two short-legged birds, I sat down by the campfire. My whole body was wet. I couldn't help but shiver.

Xiao Qiang quickly ran down from the straw bed covered with bearskin, frowned, and wiped me with the tattered clothes she used to tie the dagger yesterday.

"It's raining so heavily outside and why are you going out on such a cold day? It's okay if these fish are gone. We can always catch them again."

Wang Xiaoxiao also hurriedly added a lot of dead branches to the fire, and set up a clay pot on the bonfire to make soup for me.

"Hurry up and drink something hot to go away the cold."

I looked at the three women except Xu Wei, hesitated for a moment, and told them what I had just seen about the black figure.

After all, we need to be aware of this kind of thing. Only in this way will we not be caught off guard when something goes wrong.

"You mean there is a black shadow under our mountain? You are not mistaken, are you? Could it be a brown bear or a wild wolf?"

Wang Xiaoxiao looked at me in disbelief.

I shook my head decisively: "No, the brown bear is very big, but that person is tall and slender, and wild wolves can't stand up and walk, right? So I suspect that it should be a person!"

Xiao Qiang came close to me and said in a small voice: "Don't be scary here in the middle of the night. It's raining so hard outside. How can anyone go out? Could it be Bai Wei and the others want to come over and attack us while the heavy rain is pouring?"

?”

"How could they come back for revenge so soon after they suffered such a big loss?"

Wang Xiaoxiao has already refuted Xiao Qiang's guess for me.

Liu Jiaojiao bit her lip and hesitated: "Brother Sihai, do you think that could be a shark crawling out of the sea? I once heard my grandma say that there are monsters in the sea, deep-sea monsters!"

I laughed a little.

This is not very realistic. After all, I would still believe it if there were savages, but it is simply a fantasy that there are sharks.

But no matter who he is, he is definitely not a good person to us.

After wiping myself dry and drinking a cup of hot soup, I felt much better.

"This matter is not a good thing for us. I think it is more important for us to leave here as soon as possible. You should go to bed early. When it gets bright tomorrow, we will go and collect some food. When all the reserves are

The preparations are complete and the ship should be almost ready. Let's leave here then."

Wang Xiaoxiao nodded, but there was a trace of hesitation on his face.

"We don't even know how far this place is from the other side of the sea. It's really not safe to go out like this."

I don't know her worries, but in addition to wild beasts, there are also inexplicable human figures appearing in this place. It is impossible for me to stay here and wait for rescue.

I just saw the mysterious pile of stones in the morning and dug out so many human bones. Now I also see the mysterious shadows on the rainy night...

In short, the sooner you leave, the better, otherwise who knows what else will appear in this place.

If there really are cannibals here, will we be completely eaten up by these cannibals?

Xu Wei was still shivering, the cold wind outside kept blowing in, and several women were also pale from the cold.

Although there were several piles of bonfires inside the cave, it was still extremely cold after all. Finally, Xiao Qiang suggested that we should sleep together tonight.

At first I felt a little uncomfortable, but then I realized that it was not me who was at a disadvantage, so I nodded in agreement.

Xu Wei had a high fever and was shivering from the cold. I held Xu Wei in my arms to keep her warm. Xiao Qiang curled her lips and quickly lay on my other arm.

Wang Xiaoxiao snorted but said nothing, dragging Liu Jiaojiao to lie down at night.

A piece of bearskin covered us just right even though we were leaning on our sides.

The women's breathing became stable soon, but I couldn't sleep. I stared at the roof of the cave with my eyes wide open until dawn the next day.

After getting up, I went down the mountain and walked towards the seaside, trying to see where the black shadow appeared from.

But the rain was so heavy that the footprints had been washed away.
