alien island

Chapter 73

"So, you were made into what you are now by that kid named Zhang Yao and the tall, dark man following him?"

After burning the corpses, several people moved to another flat area near the jungle. After rebuilding the shelter and the fire, the few remaining people sat around the fire and listened to the sudden appearance. Old Hu, introduce yourself.

When Liu Rong heard that the serious injury on Lao Hu's body was obviously not long ago, it turned out to be the work of Zhang Yao and others who left them and entered the island first, he immediately became angry, and felt extremely strong towards Zhang Yao and the others in his heart. He snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, I saw that man early on, he is definitely not a good guy! His appearance looks very vicious, and he has tattoos on his body, so he is not a good person at all." I didn't expect him to be so despicable. He not only robbed you of your place of residence and food, but also ordered the people around him to injure your hands and feet like this. If I had a gun now, They must be killed!"

"Oh—yes, I helped them out of good intentions and took them back to rest, but I didn't expect that they would repay me with kindness and revenge to make me what I am now." With the only remaining hand, I rubbed myself up and down The broken foot, Lao Hu sighed deeply, as if he shouldn't have trusted others too much in the past.

Ever since he was knocked unconscious that time, when he woke up again, he saw a man with black skin and sharp eyes like a beast standing in front of him, chopping off his arm. At that moment, he was in so much pain Howling and howling, he kept begging for mercy from the man, but instead of stopping, the man also twisted his other ankle alive with his hands. At that time, Lao Hu could only pretend to be unable to bear it. He pretended to be physically weak and fell into a coma, only to escape Pei Yan's continued brute force.And Pei Yan, after seeing Lao Hu fainted again with no trace of blood on his face, he didn't want to kill Lao Hu easily in his hands, so he picked up the arm of Lao Hu he had cut off, and turned around. After leaving, he found a low-lying place with his arm and lost it.

After confirming that Pei Yan had really left, Lao Hu opened his eyes in fear, and saw that one of his good arms had been cut off at the shoulder, and the wound was still bleeding, while his one foot It seemed to be broken by Pei Yan, and his whole body was still tightly bound by the vines. Old Hu gritted his teeth and insisted on turning over and standing up, and moved closer to the not-too-distant hillside step by step, finally finding it. A sharp protruding rock, knelt down and rubbed against the rock for a long time, before breaking off the strong tree vines tied to his body, and the skin on his body that had been rubbing against the rock was also scratched and scratched , There were scars and bloodstains everywhere.

After staying on the island for so many years, Lao Hu did not spend it easily. As soon as the vines were worn away, he immediately lowered his head and started looking for plants to heal his wound and stop the bleeding.

Old Hu looked around at the place where Pei Yan threw him. He didn't know where he was thrown now. The surrounding environment was very strange.He relied on identifying non-toxic and edible plants growing on the ground to maintain his physical fitness, and found a branch to use as a crutch to move him step by step with one foot.

Old Hu knew that the smell of blood from his wound would likely attract other carnivorous creatures to attack him, so he wanted to find his second hiding place to hide, except for the residence he took Zhang Yao and the others to. In fact, Lao Hu secretly found a place to live in another area of ​​the island.As the so-called Three Caves of the Rabbit, it is only used to store some of his belongings, because the distance is too far, he rarely thinks about the past, it is just for the second place that can be transferred if there is any accident in the future, he did not expect to send it now. It came in handy.

He didn't dare to go back to his original residence, for fear of running into Zhang Yao and the others again. He had used medicine to take advantage of their unpreparedness to deal with them, but now they had already taken precautions against themselves, and they might also have murderous intentions. The second is that he was lucky, those people didn't kill him directly, if he came back, maybe they would kill him, outnumbered, Lao Hu felt that he couldn't do it now no matter in terms of physical strength or other aspects. If the enemy is defeated, it is better to change the place and avoid them, the most important thing is to save your life.

Therefore, Lao Hu originally wanted to find his second lair as soon as possible, and go there to escape and rest. Maybe he could find some herbs stored in it before to treat his injuries.

With more than ten years of rich living experience on the island, he wandered around in unfamiliar environments and carefully avoided all kinds of beasts and insects. He searched all the way, and finally found the jungle area he knew. , Lao Hu saw the inexplicable light in the darkness. Originally, he thought he had met Zhang Yao and the others again. He hid in the corner and observed quietly in a panic, but found that the people who came in and out were not the ones he had seen at the beginning. Those few people, Lao Hu suddenly felt that his luck had come back again, he missed a few people, and now there are a few people who were defenseless against him, sent to him by God, taking advantage of the parasitic blind beard worm he had seen Due to the opportunity of his appearance, he suddenly appeared beside those people and won their trust.

As for the injury on his body, Lao Hu couldn't explain it according to the facts, so he fabricated the truth of the incident and gave it to several people.

After talking about it, I found out that these people also knew the people he met. They were said to be the same group of survivors of the air crash. It's the cruelty and badness that Zhang Yao and Pei Yan treated themselves with embellishments.

"Their bastards are so deceiving! Are they still where you live? If they are, let's find him!"

The more Liu Rong listened to Lao Hu's description, the angrier he became. Thinking about the number of people left, they shouldn't be at a disadvantage against Zhang Yao. They have to teach Zhang Yao a lesson. Bullying an old man and taking other people's things is nothing!

"Thank you, although I also want to go back, but I was thrown too far away by them, I don't remember how to go back there, revenge or something... Now even if I find it, people Maybe he left too." Hearing that Liu Rong was excited to lead everyone to find Zhang Yao and the others, Lao Hu declined and said that if they met, he would be completely ruined as soon as he had a conversation, and he would be caught by a group of them instead. If people deal with it, he will be even more finished.So Lao Hu hurriedly found a bunch of excuses and declined the proposal.

"Then your legs and hands are injured now, where do you want to go?" Lu Boming looked up and down the old man's injuries, which seemed to be quite serious. He didn't expect that the two men who went into the sea with him would move. In fact, it is quite ruthless.

"Actually... I also have a shelter in another place. I built it a long time ago. It is relatively safe and reliable. It can accommodate many people in it. It can shelter from the wind and rain, and there are also storages for dried meat and herbs. There, or else, you go there with me and rest first." Lao Hu suggested to everyone.

"This...isn't so good, the sky is already so dark." Zhao Xiangguo looked at the surrounding environment, and felt that it was not safe to go out in the middle of the night, and they didn't know the basics of this old Hu.

"You are in the forest now, and what you are encountering now is a parasitic worm. Who knows what terrible things you will encounter later, you must know that there may be any monsters in the jungle, and it is absolutely unsafe. Plus The turmoil you just caused was full of blood, it is absolutely not safe to stay here, you might as well leave here with me, and you can sleep peacefully tonight." Lao Hu's words were full of allure.

Huang Bin, who was already suffering from hand injury and was afraid of what might happen around him, was the first to agree with Lao Hu's suggestion, and replied: "Why don't we all go, this place is really not safe, I want to sleep If not, no one would dare to sleep in the wild, right?"

"Then... well, we'll go with you." Turning his head to look at the people on the left and right, Liu Rong was full of affection for this old Hu who was brave enough to help them, and nodded in agreement with Lao Hu's suggestion, tidy up. I decided to follow Lao Hu to the not-too-far shelter he mentioned first, and rest there for a while.

As for the other people, they didn't make any further objections. Compared to the wilderness now, they really wanted to find a safe place and take a good rest.

Seeing the people who were about to set off with him under his instigation, when Lao Hu lowered his head and picked up the branch and crutches beside him, the corners of his mouth covered by the shadows showed a slight sly smile of triumph, similar to those in front of him. Compared with young people, these men are obviously much easier to deceive.

For his badly injured body, when he returned to that shelter, he had to take advantage of this rare opportunity to 'make up' his body.

……

Along the way, the remaining five survivors followed Lao Hu's guidance. After walking for an unknown amount of time, they finally came to another shelter that Lao Hu had mentioned.This shelter is hidden in a dense bush covered with spherical leaves. Although Lao Hu seems to be young and has suffered such serious injuries, he is in good spirits. He led everyone into it, crossed the Behind the bushes, I saw a thick dead tree trunk. There was a dark gap under the trunk. Lao Hu was the first to pass by, and got into it instantly after crossing the gap.

The people who followed hesitated for a while, and then they slowly approached the edge of the gap when they saw Lao Hu stuck his head out of the gap to call them.When I got closer, I found that the gap was formed by many dark blue long leaves, which were attached to the tree hole, and because of the dark color and shape, they covered the hole very much. Get up, you can't notice it without looking carefully.

Zhao Xiangguo, who was following closely behind Lao Hu, looked at the leaves and the dark hole, turned sideways and smiled, signaling to Liu Rong behind him to go inside first.

Liu Rong pulled the man who followed them, who was still immersed in his own world and lost his wife and children, tightly tied the tree and rattan rope that bound the man, and went in together with the man.When he poked his head through the long cold leaves on both sides and got into the tree hole, he felt that his field of vision was pitch black and he couldn't see anything. Liu Rong quickly raised the torch he was holding in his other hand. Enter the tree hole to illuminate and see the furnishings and environment inside.

Lao Hu, who was the first to come in, first touched a pile of dusty things and rummaged for a long time based on his familiar position, before he found a large black object, lit it with a fire, and immediately a lot of things came out of it. The white smoke, the smell of the smoke is not too pungent, Lao Hu smoked the whole tree hole with a black thing that was emitting smoke, and many strange and terrifying multi-legged tentacle insects came from the tree in an instant. From every corner of the tree hole, crawled out, and one by one quickly slipped outside. The people who were standing at the tree hole quickly lifted their feet to the side to avoid the strange insects rushing out of the tree hole .

"It's been a long time since I've been to this place, so I'll take this piece of insect-repellent wood and smoke it first. Its smoke can drive away the hidden poisonous insects hidden in the cracks in the cave. Okay, it's ready, you all quickly Come in." After confirming that the cave was smoky, Lao Hu explained, while extinguishing the burning wood in his hand, he called the people outside the cave to come in.

Zhao Xiangguo, Lu Boming, and Huang Bin who were standing at the entrance of the cave all came in one after another. Lao Hu motioned them to find a place to sit first, while he himself turned around and leaned on a cane, and came to the wooden planks and piled them up by the cave wall. Beside the simple long table, I packed up the things on it, and said to a few people while cleaning up: "The tree hole I found has a natural spring near the side, which is why I found it. The reason why we are here as a shelter, after I tidy up, I will pour some water for you."

"Hehe, Lao Hu, you don't need to bother. We are very satisfied to rest here now, not to mention that you are still injured, so you should come and rest first." Zhao Xiangguo's expression was the same as usual, smiling Said to Lao Hu.Seeing that Lao Hu was crippled with his hands and feet, and he was so gracious to greet them, he couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.

"It doesn't matter, I just can't be idle, and because of the pain on my body, it's not easy to think about the pain on my body when I'm busy." On the table, there are leaves of grass that can be used to stun people, Lao Hu responded to Zhao Xiangguo's words.

He had been hungry for several days and hadn't eaten anything good. He was worried about being ambushed by wild beasts in the forest, and he was also afraid that those young people would come back and chase him. Along the way, Lao Hu endured the pain and accelerated his speed. Dragging his disabled foot on the way, this time he was "lucky" to run into a few human beings. The opportunity is very rare. If we don't hurry up and seize the opportunity to stun them, the opportunity will never come again.As for the tea issue for entertaining several people, Lao Hu appeared to be particularly active and persistent.

After rummaging around on the table, Lao Hu finally found a small fruit shell among the messy, dust-covered bones and wood, and picked out a ball of off-white leaves crumpled into a round shape from the shell. He quietly held it in the palm of his hand, and then he pretended to be nonchalant, and with the only moving hand, he picked up a gourd-shaped empty shell of a large fruit hollowed out in the center, intending to help a few people pour water from the spring. It is said that it is to relieve everyone's dry throat due to hard work.

But the police officer Liu Rong saw that Lao Hu was injured and was still holding a hollow nut shell with difficulty in one hand, so he got up quickly and asked him to help. He actively said that he wanted to pour water for everyone, fearing that other people would suspect his purpose. After a few rejections, Lao Hu could only hand over the hollow nut shell to Liu Rong, and pointed out the specific location of the spring water.

After Liu Rong heard the general location of the spring water that Lao Hu said, he nodded to express his understanding, and then turned around and went in and out of the tree hole.

Holding the leaf ball that he had already taken out, Lao Hu was naturally unwilling to give up. He suddenly remembered that he hid in this shelter and made marinated air-dried meat with surplus human flesh that was afraid of being damaged. Immediately, he went to the corner again, and rummaged through it again with one hand.

The people in the cave combined the torches they held in their hands and piled them on the ground in the middle of the tree hole, picked up some dead branches and leaves left on the surrounding ground, added them to them, and started a bonfire .On cold nights, a fire that exudes heat can bring them a lot of warmth and hope.While the fire was being lit, several people turned their heads and looked at the structure inside the tree hole curiously. The area inside the tree hole was not very large, but it was enough for a group of men to huddle in it to rest. In the corner of the tree hole, Lao Hu searched There are many miscellaneous things piled up on the wooden shelf, all of which have been covered with a thick layer of dust. It can be seen that this man named Lao Hu has not visited here for a long time.Without knowing what Lao Hu was looking for again, the dust was blown up everywhere.

"Ahem, cough, what are you looking for?" Coughing uncontrollably due to the dust, and covering his mouth and nose with his hands, Lu Boming asked.

"Found it! I was thinking, there seems to be some jerky in here, so I found it, so we can eat it on the fire, and wait for me to roast it for you. It must be so late, You guys are hungry too." Finally, he pulled out the dried meat he was looking for from among the rocks, and it was wrapped in layers of dry leaves. Put it on his lap, knead the palms of each other vigorously, and quietly spread the gray-white leaf powder that was crushed in the palm of the hand on the meat, then pretended to be indifferent, and lifted the meat , Leaning on crutches, I came to the fire that everyone had made, and said that I would entertain everyone to bake and eat together.

"This meat, but I marinate it with my own sauce and then dry it. It tastes very good." When the meat meets the fire, the aroma it emits from the roast has already provoked a group of people who were roasting on the fire. Several people swallowed their saliva involuntarily. Although they drank chowder soup made of bird meat at night, how could that little soup satisfy several hungry grown men?After a while, the contents of their stomachs had already been exhausted, and now just smelling the delicious smell of meat, the saliva in their mouths was involuntarily secreted.

"This meat is very fragrant..." Smelling the more and more intense smell of meat, even Huang Bin, who had lost his appetite because of the pain of the wound, was roasting the dripping meat on the fire at this time Attracted by the block, he couldn't help but muttered.

"Of course, I used to be a chef. Whether it is cooking or seasoning, I am quite confident. Come on, the meat is already hot, come and taste it!" The meat roasted on the fire was handed over to several people. Old Hu pointed with his chin. He put the sharp shell tools he had just found on the ground, and signaled them to use shells that were similar in effect to knives to cut wood. Eat the meat on a stick.

Seeing that the leaf powder he had smeared on the meat had already mixed into the meat, Lao Hu was secretly happy, hoping that several people would eat the meat quickly.Although, he felt a little pity that the piece of meat he treasured was sacrificed as a bait. If he only used water, he could keep this piece of marinated meat for himself and enjoy it slowly.But if you can't bear the child, you won't be able to tie the wolf, and sacrificing a little dried meat in exchange for more abundant food is still a good deal when you think about it.

"Wow—it smells so good, what's the smell?" Carrying a fruit shell filled with water into the cave, Liu Rong immediately smelled a mouth-watering aroma in the cave, and couldn't help asking.

"It's Lao Hu who brought us the roasted meat. Come! Brother Liu, come over and taste it together. It's just warmed up." Zhao Xiangguo, who was sitting by the fire, warmly greeted Liu Rong.

Liu Rong hurriedly nodded and came to the fire together with water, took the shells handed to him by others, and cut up the steaming bright red to black pieces of scalded meat.

Seeing everyone chewing and swallowing the meat, Lao Hu became calm and confident in his heart, and waited patiently. Even the man who didn't know how to eat by himself and looked a little stupid was stuffed by the burly policeman. Some meat went to eat, and Lao Hu felt relieved. He lifted his remaining hand that had not been cut off, stroked his injured foot, and patiently waited for the blade of grass to exert its effect.

"Hey? Old Hu, why don't you eat some yourself?" Seeing that Lao Hu just watched them eat but didn't eat a little himself, Liu Rong asked while taking advantage of the time when the meat in his hand had just been eaten.

"No, you have also seen that I have just suffered such a serious injury. Eating heavy-flavored meat is not very good for my wound healing. You should eat it." Pointing to his own injury, Lao Hu shook his head and smiled politely. road.

"Speaking of which, Lao Hu, what kind of meat do you use? It tastes good, the meat is very delicate and delicious." Director Zhao, who was used to eating delicacies from mountains and seas before, expressed his empathy for the meat he was eating now. Great curiosity, the taste of the meat is completely different from those he has eaten before, it is really a wonderful taste experience.

"Hehe, I don't know what kind of animal it is, and I can't describe it. You have also seen that the creatures on the island are all weird. Who knows what they are called, right?" Lao Hu said with a perfunctory smile If you tell them the truth, these meats are actually made of human flesh, and they probably won't eat them as happily as they are now. Although Lao Hu also agrees with Zhao Xiangguo's evaluation in his heart, the taste of human flesh is to him It is indeed delicious, there is no wrong description.

"That's what you said." Thinking about the strange creatures on the island, Zhao Xiangguo also felt that the question he asked was a bit redundant, so he kept silent and continued to bury his head in tasting the meat in his hands.

Seeing the large pieces of meat falling into the mouths of several people, and the wooden stick with the meat gradually revealed, Lao Hu's mixed joy of waiting and anticipation made it almost difficult to hide his facial expression, so he had to hang his head down quickly , staring at the ground without squinting, silently calculating the time when the survivors who ate meat were about to faint.
