The sky, the vast sea.

Isolated island, separated people.

This is the scene when Han Zitong and I were guarding a bunch of small bonfires and watching the half-dried firewood slowly dry and burning in the fire. The rising blue smoke rose up into the sky and finally disappeared into the sky and galaxy.

The wind blew with sea sand and water foam. Seeing that the bonfire was blowing so hard that it was almost licking the ground, it was about to go out. I hurriedly reached out and pulled Han Zitong, who was already dozing off with his head, and said softly: "Come on, sit here a little. Let's block the wind so that the fire will not be extinguished."

She looked up at me, her eyes were a little blurry, but she was as obedient as a child. She supported the ground with her hands and slowly moved to me to lean against me.

The clothes on our bodies were not dry yet, and the wind was blowing on our backs, which was actually trembling with coldness. However, it took me nearly half an hour to fail countless times, and even my palms were worn out before they came out of a dead tree. Such a precious fire is tantamount to us now. Even if it is colder, it cannot be extinguished.

I also regard as the source of life as a spring that emerges from the ground just a few steps away from us, and is still gurgling.

I lowered my head and looked at Han Zitong leaning against me.

Her face was pale before, but because she drank some water and ate two more fish that I caught, or maybe, just because of the bonfire, she finally saw a little rosy.

After finally finding this spring and bonfire was set up again, she finally calmed down and satisfied her most basic desire for survival. Only after she could calm her emotions and regain her rationality. But now she has lost her identity as a princess and abandoned her attitude of opposition to me, just like what Pei Yuanxiu and I said before, but she is just a innocent heart and a little girl who has not grown up.

As if she felt my gaze, she looked up and looked at me.

When she looked at me, she would definitely not look at me impatiently, but at this time, she just opened her eyes wide and looked at me a little stupid. After a while, she said, "What should we do tomorrow?"

I said softly: "Tomorrow, let's walk inside and see where this place is?"

"Isn't this an uninhabited island?"

She said, and I felt clearly trembling against my cold body.

It seems that the despair still has not abandoned her.

In fact, I was not desperate, especially when I realized that I might never see Li'er again, I almost fell into a collapsed mood. But fortunately, God let Han Zitong float to this island.

If I need to take care of her emotions, I need to comfort myself first.

Surviving is hope for everything!

Thinking of this, I said to her: "I have seen it if there is a population. And this place should be east of Zhoushan."

"How do you know?"

"When I heard those boatmen chatting before, I heard them say that there are many islands and reefs here. The reason why our ships sink is because the bottom of the ship is broken, it is probably because it hits the reef. Originally, our route would not go here, but it should have been blown away by a storm and then hits the reefs."

She looked at me for a while and said lightly in a tone of appreciation or sarcasm: "You know a lot."

"I don't understand, I guess."

"You know a lot. You are looking for springs under the wet soil, and you are also the one who makes fire." She said softly: "I can't do anything, like a waste. If I were the only one here, I would be dead now."

I said, "You are the princess of King Jiangxia. You have been a child and have been living a wealthy life since you were a child. It's not strange if you don't know these."

"But aren't you Miss Nishikawa? Why do you?"

She looked at me, and both of them were silent for a while. She said, "Is it because of Hongyan Tower?"

“…”

I was slightly stunned and looked down at her.

After a while, I said, "What Yuan Xiu told you?"

"Um."

"He even told you this, did he say anything else?"

"Actually he didn't say much, but I understand what he meant."

"What's the meaning?"

"He wanted to tell me that you are a woman who matches him and let me not be hostile to you."

Although this environment was like this, I couldn't help but smile faintly, but saw that she seemed to be offended, and sat upright and said coldly: "Actually, he doesn't have to say that. I have no interest at all and want to be an enemy of you."

I couldn't help but look at her.

But after seeing it, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart - indeed, she was right. Even if we first met, she wanted someone to kill me, from beginning to end, her hostility and murderous intent were not for herself.

It was for her sister, the sick woman who made everyone want to take good care of her.

In fact, having such a person in life may not be a good thing.

In this life, if you have someone you can imagine and lovely, it may not be a good thing for the other person, but it is a very happy thing for yourself.

Thinking of this, I sighed a long time, which attracted her to look at me.

I looked at her and said, "Then, did he say anything else to you?"

The expression on her face was stunned for a moment, but slowly became silent. After a long time, she said lightly: "Nothing, nothing special."

After saying that, she closed her eyes.

I looked at her for a while, and listened to the sea breeze whistling in my ears, and finally slowly closed my eyes.

...

This night, I slept extremely uneasy.

It’s not anything else, just because of the pressure of survival, I wake up almost every half hour, listen quietly to the sound of wild beasts around me, add some firewood to the fire, and I keep my heart on the whole night.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! Strangely, Han Zitong, who was in the lowest mood and the most mentally collapsed, seemed to be sleeping well. She leaned behind me, and her clothes had been dried. Even warm body temperature came through her clothes, and her long breathing echoed in her ears with the sound of waves.

I don't know why she felt so at ease. Even in her sleep, there was a faint curve of smile on the corners of her lips.

Maybe, deep down, she is really just a child.

But fate made her experience too much.

But this comfort will not last long. The next morning, we will face new problems. After all, survival, especially the survival of two people on a deserted island, is not an easy task.

I still caught two fish in the shallows, grilled them, drank enough water from the spring, and left the fire. I took the fire with her, pulled out the dagger from my boots and walked towards the center of the island.

I stood on the beach and looked at this island. It should be a radius of not a big one, but the size of this is for the island. For two people, it is definitely not small. There are dense bushes growing on the island, but fortunately they are not too high. There are several high mountains in the center of the island, which are rolling and undulating, a bit like camels. As for what is on the mountain and what is on the other side of the mountain, we need to see it ourselves.

We took the dagger and waved all the way, cutting off many thorns and barely drove out a way, but after walking for a while, the dress was torn apart. Her shoes were already soaked in water, and after walking for a while, the rough stone road cracked, revealing its snow-white toes, which were worn out soon.

She was stubborn first, gritting her teeth and refusing to speak, but I heard something wrong with her breathing. When I looked back, her whole foot was dyed red.

I stopped quickly and said, "Let's take a break."

After saying that, I helped her sit on the stone on the side, which was covered with mud and grass. At this time, I didn't care about it and sat down without even wiping it. I carefully tore off a piece of fabric from my inner skirt, wiped off the mud and sand in the wound, and then bandaged her the wound.

I saw her toes cracked, bloody and fuzzy, and it should be very painful, but when I bandaged her, I didn't hear her crying for pain at all.

It was not until after I packed it up that I heard a click.

A drop of water fell down, landed on the back of my hand, and a crystal splash of water splashed.

I looked up at her and saw that there was no expression on her pale face, only big tears fell from her eyes.

I watched her like this, and was silent for a while before reaching out and gently wiped the corner of her eyes with the back of her hand.

She didn't even cry, but just cried quietly. After a long time, she calmed down, and even her face and eyes softened. She looked up at me and said softly: "Yue Qingying."

"Um?"

"You said, when will the two of us die?"

I was slightly shocked, and I didn't expect someone to be so calm and talk about his life and death.

Compared with her almost collapsed fear before and the faint smile she showed in her sleep last night, it seemed like she had changed her other person.

However, I could understand her mood at the moment. After thinking for a long time, I slowly said, "We will not die so easily."

"Why are you so sure?"

She said, looking up at the surroundings. It was already a long way from the beach, but it was still a long way from the mountains in the middle of the island. Even we were in such a thorn and green forest, just like our fleet was in the sea.

When facing nature, people are originally the smallest and most powerless.

She said: "We have nothing, how can we survive on this island?"

I said calmly: "It's been several hours since yesterday. We can all survive. Just live the days in this way according to these few hours, and we will live."

She frowned slightly and looked at me: "Why are you so relieved?"

“…”

"Aren't you worried about Li'er?"

“…”

"If you die here..."

Before she could finish her words, I had already interrupted her with a faint smile: "I just felt relieved because I thought that maybe I would die here."

She frowned and said, "What does it mean?"

"If I am still alive, I will definitely find a way to go back and find Li'er. If I die..." I sighed lightly and said lightly: "That's simple. If I die, I will be reincarnated as someone else's daughter and, in the future, to be someone else's mother. What happens to her again, not to mention whether it has anything to do with me, I won't even know."

“…”

I looked up at her and said, "A man dies like a lamp extinguishes."

I don’t know if it was the coldness of my words or the cruelty in my pupils that made her tremble slightly.
