Chapter 105

This is our first visit to ghost island. There is no doubt that the regional environment here is strange. After nearly a day, even if all six people were dispatched, I'm afraid the scope of the search was less than one tenth of the whole Ghost Island, and the so-called sketches brought by Fu Zhiwen were completely useless. In view of this situation, it is undoubtedly very difficult to find the exact location of the ancient tomb on Ghost Island. As I said before, even if there is luck, it is bound to make long-term plans.

However, now a turning point that can change the status quo is in front of us. If it were not for the dark and slippery road, I would have been tempted to follow the footprints left on the ground.

"Good thing, this is a great good thing." Fu Zhiwen stood in front of the door, his eyes stayed on the ground for a moment, and then said, "I really didn't expect that there were people living on this island. So, Xiaojie and I didn't look away during the day."

Jiang Yilong said, "maybe they didn't look wrong, but it's also possible that they deliberately led you and sister Zheng into a trap."

Fu Zhiwen said, "we were uninvited guests. We came rashly to disturb their peace. I'm afraid I would have done the same for you. Fortunately, they didn't do anything to us afterwards."

Roland said: "but after all, we are here for a purpose. When they know, will they be in trouble with us? Don't forget that there are two skeletons hanging on the bridge column. Just so, I'm afraid the atmosphere on the island is out of touch with social civilization."

Fu Zhiwen said: "if they are really divorced from social civilization, we will take them into social civilization. It is good for ourselves and others. Moreover, we are for the country. The interests of the country are above all else. Even if there are difficulties, we should face the blade."

I can't help but feel a little ashamed. At this point, we have a world difference with Fu Zhiwen, because we are for self-interest. That success may be enough for us to squander our self-interest all our life

According to what happened last night, the people on the island probably found us long ago and approached us secretly just to find out the truth. It's better to be passive than active. After discussion, we agreed to take the initiative to visit the people on the island, which may alleviate the embarrassing situation we are facing at that time.

The problem is that the ghost island is big or small. We don't know where the other party lives on the ghost island. However, fortunately, there is an unusual number of white spirit in our team, which can lock the smell left by each other through the magical nose.

Fu Zhiwen and Zheng Jie don't believe it. With our strong attitude of affirmation, they just held a kind of try attitude.

"Is the direction right?"

"The smell is a little weak, but the direction should not be wrong."

Due to our ignorance of the region, we can only completely rely on Bai Ling, which undoubtedly makes us walk through the forest and grass all the way, through thorns and thorns, and all the uncultivated roads. Zheng Jie and Roland had been complaining for a long time, but when Bai Ling followed the smell for nearly two hours, we found that there was an artificial Road in the deep forest. After walking for a while, the mountains and streams murmured. Across the gully more than five meters wide was a wooden bridge. It may be just a coincidence that two skeletons were hung on the wooden columns at both ends of the wooden bridge, The total number is four. But these skulls are a little old, and they are certainly not members of the murdered Student League.

Bai Ling said, "the smell is getting stronger and stronger. It should be coming soon."

Looking at the skulls hanging at both ends of the bridge, Roland said, "there must be something wrong with the folk customs here. You'd better be careful."

"Don't worry, we are not vegetarian." Jiang Yilong said, "besides, we have no hostility."

After crossing the wooden bridge and through a forest, our sight suddenly brightened and appeared in front of us. There were no less than dozens of large and small houses, either built near the mountain or near the water, but these houses looked dilapidated. Only the nearby courtyards were overgrown with weeds. It was obvious that no one had stayed for a long time.

"Anyone?"

Jiang Yilong shouted several times. The voice echoed for a long time, but there was no response.

Dead, only a few of us spoke.

"Here?"

"Yes."

"Now?"

"Yes."

It looks deserted here. It is very likely that the people here moved out a long time ago. In other words, it can be said that the only group of aborigines on the island are no longer on the island, but what happened last night, all of us can be sure that there must be someone left here. Listening to Bai Ling's affirmative answer twice, it was obvious that the one who deliberately approached us last night was hiding in a secret place here.

I opened my mouth and said, "we have no malice. Can you show it?"

Bai Ling suddenly pushed me aside. I was completely unprepared. I fell down in the nearby grass and was about to ask Bai Ling. Unexpectedly, I found an arrow on the ground where I was standing. I was scared to a cold sweat. If Bai Ling didn't react quickly, this arrow would shoot at me.

"There he is."

Jiang Yilong pointed to the right. He saw a man on the tree about ten meters away from us. He should be a man with bow feathers on his back. We saw that he didn't hit the target and was found by us. He quickly went down the tree.

"He was the one who came last night."

"Don't let him run away."

In addition to Fu Zhiwen staying where he was, the five of us immediately scattered around and chased him. It took more than ten minutes before and after, and we finally surrounded him in the open area.

This is a boy with disheveled hair but clean face. He is about 13 to 15 years old. There are bead chains made of animal teeth on his neck, wrist and ankle. His upper body and lower body are only wrapped with two animal skins and stand barefoot. In this season, only two animal skins are used to keep out the cold, which shows his physical quality. Perhaps it was because we were so numerous and completely strange faces that he was a little afraid. He made a strange gasp in his mouth, put the arrow on the bow all the time, and was alert to our actions.

We believe that as long as he takes another step forward, he will take the lead in shooting at us. Therefore, we can only stay where we are.

Jiang Yilong said, "it's a child. Don't point an arrow at us. We have no malice and won't hurt you. By the way, what's your name and your family?"

He looked at Jiang Yilong and didn't speak, but the bow and arrow that had aimed at me now aimed at him.

Fu Zhiwen rushed over with his stick, looked carefully at the child in front of him, and immediately said, "step back and let me come."

We each took two steps back as he said.

Fu Zhiwen said, "son, don't be nervous and don't be afraid. We have no malice and won't hurt you. Can you invite your family to speak?"

The child looked at Fu Zhiwen and bared his teeth like a beast and gave a low roar.

"You see, I don't have any weapons that can hurt you, but this is just a tool to help you walk. Put down your bow and arrow."

The child remained unmoved.

Bai Ling said, "there should be no one else on the island except him."

"That's no wonder." Fu Zhiwen stood in place and thought. He immediately stepped back and walked next to Zheng Jie. He pulled out two boxes of biscuits from Zheng Jie's backpack and deliberately tampered with the wrapping paper. "Child, what do you think this is?"

His sight was quickly attracted to Fu Zhiwen by the sound. Seeing this, Fu Zhiwen tore open one of the boxes of wrapping paper, took a biscuit and put it on his mouth. "This is edible. Look carefully."

Fu Zhiwen ate two biscuits in a row. He handed Zheng Jie his walking stick and carefully approached the child until they were only about three meters apart. He bent down and put two boxes of biscuits on the ground. "Here you are. You can eat it too."

Seeing Fu Zhiwen step back in succession, the child finally summoned up the courage to come forward. Finally, he took out a biscuit from the open box and chewed it twice in his mouth. This chewing couldn't stop. He simply put down his bow and arrow and sat cross legged on the ground, ate one box and put the remaining box of unopened biscuits in his arms.

After some kindness, the vigilance of the child's eyes suddenly decreased, and the embarrassing meeting between us was immediately resolved.

"What's your name?"

The child looked at Zheng Jie and made a loud voice.

"Are you alone on this island?"

He looked at Roland again and made a loud voice with his throat.

"Can't you speak?"

The child looked at Jiang Yilong and nodded.

Fu Zhiwen sighed, "what a pity. You are a child and mute. You live here alone. How can you survive alone?"

He didn't respond, but he was stunned for a moment. He waved at us with a bow and arrow in his hand, and then he ran all the way in front. We quickly followed him. After a while, we came to a broken temple. There was a remnant image in the broken temple. We couldn't see which immortal it was. On the ground, there were branches, dry firewood and a pile of charcoal left after burning. On a simple shelf, there was a intact pottery pot on it. In addition, beside the broken temple, there are grass balls for sleeping, as well as some animal bones left after eating.

We have seen how a mute and a child survived on this island. The facts before us make us confused, but we also admire the child's viability and perseverance.

The child gave us a few gestures. Before we could fully understand it, he ran out of the broken Temple alone with a bow and arrow. We stayed in the broken temple for nearly an hour and a half, but we didn't see him coming back. We were about to leave the broken temple and get familiar with the environment. The child returned to the broken temple with a big snake and hare with a thick arm in one hand, said something to us, made a gesture, and began to get prey.

"He's going to invite us to eat his hard won prey?"

"It should be."

"Ha ha, I haven't eaten meat for several days. Brother Zhiyuan Yilong, go and help him."
