The rain stopped. The sudden heavy rain outside the cave continued for seven days, and finally the wind stopped and the rain stopped.
Maybe it's because of continuous rain, the air has become fresh and fresh. They have been trapped in the cave for seven days. When Qiao bao'er walked out of the cave in high spirits, they were shocked by the sight in front of them.
They are now at the foot of the mountain. It looks like a plain, but all the green trees have become bare. Leaves fall to the ground, leaving only trees. The muddy road is full of pits and hollows, and the roots of small grass and some vine herbs are beginning to rot.
The scene was deserted.
Qiao bao'er once complained to Samba that there is no rainy day on this island. This time, I really know, but after this unusual heavy rain, the world has changed.
When we walked out of the cave, we all looked around in a daze. We had to avoid the puddles under our feet. The rain was really poisonous.
They didn't have much time to sigh. They saw a few coconut trees in the distance. Although the big leaves of the coconut trees didn't peel off, they were drooping. Fortunately, the fight had no effect on the inside of the fruit flesh. The old devil took out a steel knife and quickly climbed to the tree to pick the coconuts.
They hung three or four coconuts on their backpacks and used them as kettles. When they were thirsty, they took a few sips of coconuts.
Samba strode over this small hillside. He pulled up a kind of vine root and pulled out a bunch of sweet potatoes from the mud.
Qiao bao'er is fed up with eating meat. She likes eating this kind of sweet potato. She goes over to help pull and carefully check the newly unearthed sweet potatoes. Maybe it's because the vegetation grows on the hillside, and the rain doesn't deposit too much in the soil, so the sweet potatoes have a slightly irritating acid rain smell in addition to the skin. After cutting off the skin, the sweet potato pulp can still be eaten.
I also saw a lot of anti-inflammatory and analgesic herbs. Although the roots of these herbs were soaked in rain and began to rot, they did not affect the efficacy of their leaves and stems. Samba also picked some.
Local. Now they're storing food.
"Which way are we going now?"
"... hey, Rafael, let's help you find the scepter. You can give us a clue."
When they have finished their preparations, we begin to face the most important problems.
They have hands, they have weapons, but they have no direction, like the blind head flies.
This time Raphael did not put on a perfunctory expression, but gazed at the surrounding environment and thought deeply, as if he did not dare to make a random decision.
The savage patriarch still obstinately yells at Rafael.
The patriarch wanted them to put the moving sarcophagus back in place, and only Raphael knew the location of the sarcophagus.
Rafael can't say it now, because that's his card.
Qiao bao'er originally wanted to talk to the patriarch, but considering the aboriginal language she left her foot, forget it, so as not to offend the patriarch because of her oral mistakes.
"Samba, you tell the patriarch to calm down. No matter how she roars, it's useless unless she helps Raphael find three scepters."
Qiao bao'er thinks that how Samba is also the patriarch and his own son, let Samba persuade him.
But Qiao bao'er underestimated the savage's persistence. In the face of a straight brainless savage, her brain can't turn around, and it's useless to persuade her. The patriarch holds a scepter, and since she's trembling, she's always following Raphael.
No matter where Raphael went, he was followed by a broken wand. Raphael's face became more and more smelly, and he wanted to kick the annoying old woman down impulsively.
In order to avoid the bad event of beating the old man, junzhimu rarely said to Raphael, "since this savage patriarch has the ability to avoid the illusion of the third Island, he can accurately find the place where you buried Your scepter, and he also knows to avoid the rain..."
"The patriarch probably knows where the scepter of the third island is."
Rafael's face changed a lot, perhaps because he was too arrogant to pay attention to others. He thought that he was the most familiar person to the third Island, so he didn't want to ask other people more.
Or maybe Raphael is used to loneliness, to solving problems by himself, and doesn't know how to work as a team.
Turning around, he looked coldly at the old, ugly patriarch, "do you know where the scepter of the third island is?"
[don't know]
The old patriarch's answer was very direct. It seemed that he really didn't know.
Raphael's face was ugly and his heart was disheartened. He turned and strode toward a hillside. He wanted to stand on a high place and think about where to go next.
No matter what he does, he is used to relying on himself, because others are unreliable.
Every one of them is a fool.
In Raphael's arrogant scolding, Qiao Baoer pulls Samba to stop the savage patriarch, "don't follow him any more, he may hit you." A word of conscience.
"Patriarch, if you don't know where the scepter of the third island is, do you know the most powerful one in the third island..."
[Naga]
Qiao bao'er's words haven't asked export, savage clan chief said a name to her.
Samba's old mother's face is painted with colorful stripes. At this time, most of the oil on her face has been wiped off. Her skin is dark brown and her face is full of wrinkles. Recently, she looks haggard and tired after the wind and mulberry, but her eyes are as bright as wild animals. There are several strings of pearls and shells hanging around her neck.
I don't know why, Qiao bao'er can't help but pay more respect to the savage patriarch.
"What is Naga?"
The savage patriarch said a lot to her, as if she was afraid of something. The patriarch spoke very fast, and Qiao bao'er understood two words.
[the third Island] [patron saint]
Rafael on the other side has a good ear. When he hears the patriarch's words, he immediately turns his head and listens. He suddenly realizes something.
He asked in a loud voice, "is this Naga a a man or something, and where?"
Qiao bao'er is not clever, but her logic is correct. Since ancient times, the scepter has been owned by the most powerful people in each island. This is a place where the weak eat the strong. There must be a king.
Naga, the patron saint of the third island.
Raphael searched all the Scriptures in the library, but he didn't find this record. The savage patriarch is still useful.
I don't know if the patriarch is deliberately angry with Raphael. The patriarch shakes his head and says that he doesn't know the real body of Naga. This is just an old name handed down by their ancestors.
Just when Raphael was going to be rude.
Naga lives in the great waterfall
The savage patriarch didn't know how to play tricks and learn how to hide secrets. He didn't think that he could coerce Raphael to go to the sarcophagus first. Instead, he told them the answer directly.
This is the ignorance of the savages, and Qiao bao'er thinks it's the simplicity they are about to forget.
Simple mind, simple life, simple happiness, unlike these people, insatiable.
