The captain lit a cigarette and looked at the front with a hollow expression. He could only wait. If the ship did not arrive at night, it was very likely that they would face all kinds of dangers. For example, the rising tide, wild beasts, etc. . …

Lu Xiangdong and Su Mianmian leaned against a tree and closed their eyes to rest.

Su Mianmian opened her eyes and looked at the surface of the sea. Such a large ship could sink. It could be seen that the water here was very deep. Even people who knew how to swim might not be able to swim back safely.

“What are you thinking about? ” Lu Xiangdong opened his eyes and asked softly.

“I’m thinking that even if you can swim, you can’t save yourself, because it’s very likely that halfway through the swim, you’ll be swallowed by the crocodile. ” She smiled and rested her head on his shoulder.

“So… now, other than waiting, we still have to wait. ” He looked at the captain …

The captain threw away the cigarette in his hand and got up to call for the tourists to find a place to rest. He would leave one or two people here to watch.

He left his assistant by the shore, and the others followed him forward.

This was a dense jungle, and there were trees everywhere. If they wanted to find a safe place to rest, it could only be a hole. However, in a place like this, the deeper the hole, the more dangerous it was. Because this hole might be a shelter for some animals, such as snakes, tigers, and so on… …

“Do you have a fire? Who brought a lighter or something? ” The captain asked the people behind him.

Someone handed him a lighter, and he pulled down the vines that were wrapped around the tree. He lit the fire, then raised it and walked forward. When he reached the hole, he asked the people behind him to step back and then threw the fire into the hole. A few minutes later, there was no suspicious movement. He turned around and said to everyone, “it’s safe inside. Everyone can go in and rest until the ship arrives. ”

Lu Xiangdong and Su Mianmian were walking at the back. Su Mianmian’s foot suddenly missed and her entire leg sank into a hole. She almost fell in with them. Fortunately, Lu Xiangdong held her back.

“hold on, I’ll pull you up right away. ” Lu Xiangdong held the tree trunk with one hand and moved his feet, trying to pull her up.

“Don’t move, let me do it! ” The captain had unknowingly stood behind them. He took a step back and pulled a vine from the tree. Then, he let Lu Xiangdong tie the vine to Su Mianmian’s waist.

Lu Xiangdong used the strength of one hand to wrap the vine around Su Mianmian’s waist. Then, he nodded at the captain. The captain took a step back and pulled the vine back. Su Mianmian was brought up.

She fell to the ground. Lu Xiangdong held her in his arms and kissed her forehead. “It’s okay! ”

Su Mianmian revealed her face and smiled gratefully at the captain.

The captain threw down the vines and clapped his hands to let them enter the cave first. It was too dangerous around here and they could not move alone.

Lu Xiangdong helped her up. Her legs went weak and she almost slipped. The backpack on her back suddenly slipped and fell into the cave.

Su Mianmian cried out nervously, “my bag… ”

“Don’t pick it up. ” Lu Xiangdong looked into the cave vigilantly and found a few big snakes inside. He quickly pulled her into his arms and told her not to go over.

Seeing this, the captain picked up the tree vines that he had thrown away earlier, lit a fire, and threw them into the cave.

With a bang, the snakes in the cave started to burn, and the fire almost reached the outside of the cave.

Su Mianmian licked her dry tongue. It was a pity that the drink that she had saved with great difficulty fell down to feed the snakes!

The cave was very dry, and many passengers couldn’t help but take out drinks from their bags and start drinking.

The captain and Lu Xiangdong sat together. The three of them didn’t have anything to quench their thirst, so they could only sit there.

Su Mianmian leaned against his chest and felt very thirsty. Her hands held tightly onto his clothes, and her eyes were filled with desire.

Lu Xiangdong patted her face. “Don’t sleep. If you’re thirsty, Lick your tongue. ”

The captain was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and said to him, “there’s a shrub in the forest. Its trunk can contain a kind of liquid. That liquid can quench her thirst. You can go outside and get some for her. ”

He nodded. “thank you. Please help me take care of my wife. I’ll be back soon. ”

“But… ” he could not help but remind Lu Xiangdong. “that Shrub is poisonous. When you take its liquid, try not to touch its trunk. ”

Su Mianmian grabbed his arm and shook her head. “Don’t go. I’m not thirsty. ”

Even if there was danger, he would still go because he would not let his wife die of thirst here.

“Don’t worry. Everything will be fine. Wait for me here obediently. I’ll be back soon. ” Lu Xiangdong let her lean against the stone wall and asked the captain to take care of her. Only then did he leave in peace.

Before leaving, he picked up an empty beverage bottle that someone had thrown at him and put it in his pocket.

After leaving the cave, Lu Xiangdong walked forward. According to the captain’s description, he was looking for that kind of tree as he walked.

Suddenly, something slipped under his feet. Lu Xiangdong kicked it out alertly. It was a small snake. Fortunately, it was not poisonous.

He picked up a branch by the side of the road, in case something suddenly came out.

Further ahead, he could see a small stream. Lu Xiangdong found that the water in this stream was crimson red, as if human blood had seeped into it. He stepped on a stone and stepped on it. When he turned around, the stone he had just stepped on had also turned crimson red.

He did not have much time to care about all this. He quickly walked forward, looking for that kind of SHRUB.

He reached out and pulled a shrub. Lu Xiangdong suddenly found that there was a tree in front that looked like the shrub the captain had mentioned. He wiped his sweat and ran over.

He found a stone on the ground and used the sharp end to cut the tree trunk. White liquid flowed out from the tree trunk. He quickly put the bottle under the ground and let the white liquid flow into the bottle.

The white liquid flowed very slowly. He had to stand there and watch it drip into the bottle.

After about half an hour, the bottle was filled with white liquid. He picked a leaf from the tree and folded it into a trumpet shape. He then placed the leaf at the mouth of the tree and let the white liquid drip into the leaf.

All of this was for him to drink.

Time passed by minute by minute. Su Mianmian leaned against the stone wall and felt very worried. She sat up weakly. The captain could not help but remind her when he saw that she looked like she was going to fall at any moment “sit properly. Don’t even think about looking for him. You probably won’t even be able to walk out of this forest before fainting. ”

She held it in and said worriedly, “then can you go look for him? I’m worried that he might run into some danger alone. Please! ”

The captain shook his head. “I can’t leave because he’s not the only one I’m responsible for now. There are so many people here who need me to look after. I can’t leave. ”

Su Mianmian became even more anxious when she heard that. Could it be that he was just going to watch Lu Xiangdong get into trouble without helping?

“Captain… ”

“stop talking. I won’t leave this place. ”

Su Mianmian’s eyes reddened. She stood up resolutely. “If you don’t go to him, I’ll go to him myself. You’re afraid of danger, but I’M NOT! ”

“Why are you so stubborn? Sit tight and don’t go anywhere! ” The captain pressed her back down.

She pushed his hand away, wiped her tears, and cried, “you want me to go to him? Let me go! ”

“Go where? Didn’t I tell you to stay here? ” The moment Lu Xiangdong entered the cave, he heard Su Mianmian and the captain arguing. He squatted in front of her and told her to drink this thing quickly.

He had already tried it. This kind of thing could quench thirst, and it was not poisonous.

Su Mianmian almost dropped the bottle on the ground. She hugged his neck, angry and annoyed.

“If you don’t come back, I’ll go out to look for you! Please don’t leave my side. ”

Lu Xiangdong patted her back and smiled. “Yes, I’m not going anywhere. Drink quickly. ”

The captain shook his head and continued to light a cigarette. He blew a smoke ring into the air.

Lu Xiangdong also wrapped some leaves for him to drink.

“Captain, have a drink. ”

The captain glanced at him and took the drink. He looked at him in a different light.

“Young Man, your courage is commendable. ”

“You flatter me. ”

The captain threw the leaves on the ground and said to him, “later, you will accompany me to the beach to take a look. Do you dare? ”

“Captain, is this a provocation? You have to know that my life is nothing, but I can not leave my wife alone! ”

“bring her along. ” The captain made an exception for him. He usually did not like women standing in his way, but this man in front of him had the courage and courage that other people did not have.

Lu Xiangdong wouldn’t agree to his request immediately. He wanted Su Mianmian’s opinion.

Su Mianmian nodded. She heard their conversation very clearly. If she could leave this place immediately, she was willing to take the risk with them.

“honey, you have to think it through. This isn’t a joke! Once you leave this cave, you might face a lot of danger. No matter how powerful I am, I can’t guarantee your safety. ” He held her hand and advised softly.

She understood all of this, but waiting for death wasn’t a solution.

“I understand your worries. Xiangdong, I’m not afraid. ” If she was afraid, she would not have followed him here!

It was not something that anyone could have predicted.

The captain suddenly laughed. “Don’t worry, I’m still here. I’ve lived here for so many years, so I know the environment better than you guys. Let’s go! Let’s go outside and see what’s going on. ”

Lu Xiangdong nodded, and Su Mianmian stood up as well. The three of them left the cave together.

The other passengers stayed in the cave to rest.

The Sky had gradually turned dark, and the forest was darker than the outside world. They were extra careful with every step they took.
