Chapter 62: The Coming of Death(1/2)
This sudden tsunami.
Break the peaceful survival of Ling Xiao and Chen Xueer.
Almost half of the plants on the island were destroyed.
The source of fruits suddenly became much scarce.
Ling Xiao searches for fresh fruits in the mountains of the island every day.
He has the talent of "tolerate hunger", and it doesn't matter if he doesn't eat for a day.
But Chen Xueer can't do it.
She doesn't have this talent.
So no matter how severe the jungle was destroyed, Ling Xiao had to search for it.
In this way, their days on the island became longer and longer.
Ling Xiao clearly remembered that it had been 175 days since they first came to this island.
In other words, there are still five days left.
They will end this dream world.
Every time he thought of this, he would reluctantly look at Chen Xueer who was sleeping beside him.
Under the moonlight, her delicate face looked so white and smooth.
The cool aura of the past is even more cute at this moment.
The next morning, Ling Xiao got up early.
He is going to look for food today.
Now there are only four days left to end the dream.
Maybe there will be any dangers later.
And every time he goes out, Chen Xueer becomes extremely nagging.
"You must be careful. If you find some edible fruits, come back and find out? I don't eat much, so I can give you my portion."
"By the way, you have to look to the beach from time to time. What if the tsunami comes again?"
"And..."
At this time, Ling Xiao smiled and interrupted Chen Xueer: "Okay, Xueer, I understand. Remember one thing, if you encounter danger, such as earthquakes and tsunamis, you must protect yourself first, do you know?"
"Yes." Chen Xueer nodded: "Don't worry, I have strong self-protection ability, you don't have to worry about me."
Ling Xiao was naturally relieved when he listened to what she said.
Then he was about to turn around and leave.
But the next second, Chen Xueer called him.
"Hey, wait!"
Ling Xiao turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
Chen Xueer took a string of beads from her hand and said, "This is for safety. I have worn it until now when I was a child, so you can wear it."
As she said that, she put the bead on Ling Xiao's hand.
Ling Xiao looked at the beads in his hand, then smiled, and continued, "Don't worry, I'm leaving."
Chen Xueer couldn't help but worry when she looked at his leaving back.
Ling Xiao walked down the path.
Although it has been more than a month since the last tsunami disaster.
But the fallen trees never grew again.
He could only look for fresh fruits while crossing these obstacles.
Ling Xiao even thought that if he really couldn't find the fruit, he could only go to the beach to catch fish.
He walked along the island for a whole circle.
On some firm trees, some fruits were picked.
Then he came to the beach, planning to catch some small fish and cook some clear soup tonight to replenish Chen Xueer's body.
But just as he was about to go into the sea, a trembling tremble made him stagger.
"What's going on?!"
Ling Xiao subconsciously became panicked.
But he soon realized something.
He quickly climbed onto a big rock and looked around.
Sure enough, another high wave appeared in the southeast direction.
"here we go again!"
Ling Xiao picked up the basket and ran back immediately.
But he realized that the waves this time were even more fierce than the last time.
So he immediately returned to the tree just now.
He began to crawl, trying to grab as many fruits as possible.
"One, two, three..."
Ling Xiao picked all the fruits he could pick.
"Xue'er, you want to find that wave... Don't wait for me to come back..."
He held the fruit and ran towards home.
On the other side, Chen Xueer also felt the trembling of the land.
With an uneasy mood, she immediately looked into the distance!
She guessed right.
The tsunami is coming again!
Chen Xueer immediately packed up her things and brought everything she should bring with her.
Even that grass skirt was put into the box.
She carried the box and hurriedly climbed up the top of the mountain.
Although she promised Ling Xiao that she would immediately protect herself as long as there was danger.
But Chen Xueer always cared about Ling Xiao at the foot of the mountain.
So halfway through the mountain, she put the box on the road and turned around to find him.
"Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao!!"
Just like the last time, Chen Xueer ran and shouted.
But the difference is that after the last tsunami, the original road had already been covered with tilted branches and shrubs.
Chen Xueer's calves were even scratched by branches.
But she endured the pain and continued to run forward.
Ling Xiao held a basket of fruits and looked at Chen Xueer not far away running towards him in the opposite direction. He hurriedly shouted: "Xue'er, I'm here!!"
When Chen Xueer heard Ling Xiao’s shouting, she quickly turned around.
But because there were fallen trees around her, she had almost no sense of direction and had no idea where he was.
Ling Xiao kicked the tree head in front of him, and while running, he waved: "Xue'er!!"
Chen Xueer finally heard the source of the sound clearly, and she hurriedly looked over.
The extremely frightened expression finally relieved a little.
She said to Ling Xiao: "The tsunami is coming again!"
"I know, let's go." Ling Xiao said and took Chen Xueer to the top of the mountain.
Compared to the last time when they were at a loss, they were obviously more prepared this time.
When they came to the top of the mountain with a basket of fruits and boxes, the waves in front of them officially rushed to the island.
Suddenly, the trees by the beach were submerged in the water.
And the increase is much faster than the last time!
Seeing this, Ling Xiao couldn't help but feel worried.
If this is the case, it is very likely that the island will sink into the ocean.
They will be drowned by then.
To be continued...
