Chapter 153 Island Day 88 Plan
It is night, the moon is bright and the stars are bright.
The flames shone brightly from behind the raised curtain, shining like a shooting star, and disappeared in an instant.
The moonlight continued the shadow, undulating on the wall with the movement of footsteps.
"Here, grandma's freshly squeezed pineapple juice."
The pottery cup was placed on the wooden board on the table, and the rich fruity aroma could be vaguely smelled.
Wen Siqi picked up the pottery cup and drank it down like a cow chewing a peony.
Jiang Xinran disagreed with this.
If Wen Siqi had a sense of taste, she would definitely laugh at her behavior like this, but Wen Siqi didn't, whether it tastes good or not is like water to her... No, maybe she doesn't even know what water tastes like.
Reining in her thoughts, she brought up a topic, "What are you thinking about?"
Swallowing the pineapple juice in her mouth, Wen Siqi pondered for a moment, "...the leader of the hounds died, plus the five that died before, they have already lost eight companions. I don't know how many of them are left, and whether they can continue to survive here .”
The leading one, two were killed by that man, and later she shot one to death with an arrow. Yao Yanan said that she stabbed a hound in the body, which was seriously injured, and the probability of survival was not high, so it could be regarded as death , Later, on the way to rescue Yao Yanan and Mu Jie, Lin Jianfei killed one, plus the two they killed by the stream, it was indeed eight dead.
However, is this something Wen Siqi needs to worry about?
Jiang Xinran couldn't laugh or cry.
Sometimes Wen Siqi's rationality makes people feel scared, but at the same time, her sensibility sometimes makes people headache.The co-existence of rationality and sensibility, there is almost no problem of repulsion in her body.
Feeling a little emotional, Jiang Xinran couldn't help thinking about how these unfriendly neighbors would live in the future.
"It won't be as rich as before, but it will definitely not starve to death because of lack of food."
This island cannot accommodate a large ethnic group, and the number of hounds will never be too many. From the number of their actions this time, it can be determined that they have no redundant clansmen, or redundant combat power.
The drastic reduction in the population of hunting dogs will inevitably have a great impact on the survival of the remaining hunting dogs. They can no longer rely on their numbers to surround their prey and obtain food, nor can they compete with the wild boars on the other side of the stream, especially One of them also had a broken leg.
However, with their hunting ability and their familiarity with this place, food will not become a fatal threat to survival. If they can't eat meat, they can still eat vegetarian food. Like wild boars, they are not picky about meat and vegetables.
Jiang Xinran shared her thoughts.
Wen Siqi thought for a while, "I want to take some time someday and take a closer look."
Jiang Xinran choked, and didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Really go?"
"Go, but not too close, as long as we can see you." Wen Siqi smiled softly.
Instead, the topic changed, "It's not so much sympathy for them, it's better to say frankly that I want to give myself a peace of mind."
"Very disgusting behavior, isn't it. Just like that time." Wen Siqi laughed at herself.
"On the one hand, I keep saying that I don't want to hurt you, but on the other hand, I am unwilling to give up using you."
When was that time, Jiang Xinran knew in her heart, it was nothing more than Wen Siqi telling herself her plan before the wedding.
"Still blaming yourself?" After a pause, Jiang Xinran said again: "No, it should be...still loathing myself?"
Wen Siqi smiled, "Yeah, I hate myself for doing one thing and saying another."
"I won't mention the past. If it were me, I would hesitate, so let's talk about now."
Jiang Xinran put down her glass, "The reason why we kill them is because they threaten our lives, there is no right or wrong in fighting for survival, it is good that we have not killed them all.
It's just that your empathy is stronger, which makes you worry about their future survival, but you feel that you have killed their companions and are not worthy of sympathy for them. "
"You think your kindness is hypocritical, and I think it's because your mental cleanliness has become so severe that it has become an obsessive-compulsive disorder, forcing yourself to be perfect."
Wen Siqi was silent, okay, she suddenly laughed, and after laughing for a long time, she suppressed her smile and said: "What you said is very reasonable, I will think carefully whether this mentality is hypocrisy, or is it a discomfort with my own imperfection."
"I think you'd better go back and think about it slowly."
"Are the authorities confused?"
Tap the wooden board on the table with your fingertips, click and click, quite rhythmically.
Jiang Xinran didn't bother her, picked up the ceramic cup and took another sip of the juice, and the shouts from the room could be heard in her ears.
When he came out, Wang Zhenzhen had just prepared the medicine, so he should be giving Ye Yajie the second medicine.
Although the hounds were driven away and the leader was always left behind, they were not much better, except for Wen Suiyun, who were more or less injured, even she, Wen Siqi, and Yao Yanan were injured.
The road from the stream to the wooden house was not opened much, and they ran all the way, leaving a lot of scratches on their feet. In addition to Wen Siqi, the swelling on the right ankle increased. According to the swelling situation seen, this leg Likely to be crippled for life.
Apart from Wen Siqi, Lin Jianfei was the most seriously injured. The leader of the attack was staring at him and scratching him. There were two deep claw marks on his legs, probably two or three centimeters deep. For Lin Jianfei, it was even worse.
Although the rot of the wound on the left arm has not continued to deteriorate, it is not much better. Now it is still relying on herbal medicine and crude saline to delay the deterioration of the wound and the infection of tetanus.
Now there are more scratches on the legs, and it is still unknown whether the wounds carry the rabies virus.
After Wen Siqi treated Lin Jianfei's wound, she frankly told him the truth and what might have happened. The latter smiled and said, "Let's resign ourselves to fate." He remained silent until night.
The smile looked rather far-fetched.
Then he was nagged by the old man all afternoon. When he came out, Lin Jianfei looked in good spirits.
The injuries of the others were not as serious as Lin Jianfei's, but they were not much better. Han Tang also lost his fetal gas due to the shock, but fortunately his condition stabilized in the evening.
The food for these few days will be a little extravagant, so I have to make up for it, so as to avoid being weak and allowing germs to take advantage of it.
After recovering, Wen Siqi was still thinking, Jiang Xinran added two sticks of firewood to the basin, and went back to the house with the pottery cup.
After a while, she came back with the cup and brought Wen Siqi a warm pillow by the way.
"Mom, what are you thinking?"
Wen Suiyun is very energetic. It may be that she has encountered too many things in the past three months, and she is not surprised, or it may be that she is too well protected, and she is not afraid of the hunting dog's attack.
When she saw Wen Siqi after the incident, she didn't cry and call "Mom", but ran over calmly and took Wen Siqi's hand and went back to the cabin.
For the medicine in the back, she was also busy behind their buttocks, making a childish voice from time to time, and comforting others with the most mature words in the most immature tone.
Seeing Ye Yajie always muttering something like "If you want to educate, you must educate well".
Holding her daughter on her lap, Wen Siqi smiled, "Mom is wondering whether to continue thinking about it."
Wen Suiyun raised his head and tilted his head, looking at Jiang Xinran with a puzzled expression.
Jiang Xinran smiled without saying a word, and turned to look at Wen Siqi.
"give up?"
"Well, give up."
Looking at each other and smiling, the two adults started an encrypted conversation.
"No matter how thoroughly a person sees himself, he sees himself from his own perspective. It is inevitable that there will be times when he gets into a dead end. I think I should listen to your advice and analyze myself with a more professional person."
"No matter how many times, your calm still makes people unable to help feeling." Jiang Xinran sighed, then looked into Wen Siqi's eyes and said, "Can I listen in? I want to know more about you."
Wen Siqi smiled lightly, "If Ms. Jiang doesn't feel that I'm hypocritical, you are welcome."
"If I think you are hypocritical, I won't be attracted to you."
Looking at each other silently, both of them smiled, Wen Suiyun was confused.
Fortunately, the subsequent conversation was normal, but also serious.
It was Jiang Xinran who started it.
"Wen Siqi, I think we have to hurry up and leave this island." The conversation changed, and even the atmosphere became serious.
"What do you want to do?"
"Before the ship passes by, take a raft early to get close to the distance, and then whistle to attract their attention."
The ship's route was quite a distance from the island, and the whistle seemed to be unable to convey the distance. They had to get closer to attract attention.
Jiang Xinran had considered this method before, but she never made up her mind.
The closer they are to the route, the farther they are from the island. Once they encounter problems, whether they can swim back safely is a problem.
However, now she has to take a risk, whether it is Lin Jianfei's broken arm, Mu Jie's fracture, Wen Siqi's sprain, or just a scratch, or Han Tang's fetal gas, they must receive treatment as soon as possible. No one can guarantee what will happen if the delay continues.
Therefore, they can no longer pin their hopes on the ship hearing or seeing their distress signal, and must take the initiative to approach.
Not surprisingly, the passing time of the ship on the south side can be determined to be 15 days. Although the specific time point cannot be determined, the gap will not be too large.
"This is not a bad idea." Wen Siqi thought for a moment, then said, "When will the next ship pass by?"
"November 11."
"November 11th..." Wen Siqi frowned, "I remember that day corresponds to September 5th in the lunar calendar, which is a period of astronomical tides, and it is very dangerous."
The astronomical tide period is around the first and fifteenth day of every month, and the [-]th day is just in the astronomical tide period. The tide length and ebb and flow during this period are more dangerous than usual. I don’t know if the raft can withstand the tide brought by it. impact.
"Always try, how will you know if you can succeed if you don't try."
People's progress lies in daring to take risks. They can enjoy the current comfort because of this adventurous spirit.Now they need to rely on this spirit to take another risk for their future.
Jiang Xinran made up her mind that she must go.
Wen Siqi has never been a person who doesn't know how to make progress. She very much agrees with Jiang Xinran's adventure and makes some improvements to it.
For example, when should they set off, how much water and food do they need to prepare, they will definitely not just wait there for a while, it is likely to wait for a whole day.
In addition, sun protection and self-safety protection must be done well. Weapons must be carried, but bamboo armor does not need to be worn. Once it enters the water, it will become a burden.
The two discussed selflessly for a long time, and completely forgot Wen Suiyun in his arms. When Ye Yajie called them back to the house to get medicine, Wen Suiyun had already begun to nod his head, drowsy.
Back at the wooden house, Jiang Xinran told everyone what she thought.
Take the initiative to approach the opportunity to ask for help, no one objected to this proposal, Wang Zhenzhen even wished that tomorrow would be the time for the ship to pass by.
No one is indifferent to hope.
