C161

On the fourteenth day after the island had fallen, the sea appeared dark and gloomy in the distant horizon. It seemed as if a huge storm was brewing on the sea.

But the two men on the island were ignorant.

Hai Xiaomin woke up from her slumber. Her body was so short of water that her throat was so dry that she almost lost her voice. She felt like she was about to become a dried up log.

She wasn't Ling Yao, so she couldn't make such a calm and rational analysis. These days, she had fed Ling Yao most of the water.

After Ling Yao's fall, she didn't even pay attention to the surface of the sea anymore. Every day, he spent all her energy searching for food and herbs, but the harvest was much less than the energy he had consumed during the battle.

The snake poison and infection corroded his body, causing him to become more and more sick. In the next two days, he spent most of his time in a semi-conscious state.

"Ling Yao!" She hoarsely called out to him twice, but no sound came out from his throat. His hand touched the side of his body, and she used all her strength to stand up, feebly moving closer to the man. "Ling Yao?"

He lay there quietly, not responding at all.

"Ling Yao!" Hai Xiao Min opened her eyes in fear, and touched his face and chest.

What made her feel relieved was that she could still breathe, her heart was beating, but it was getting weaker and weaker.

Ling Yao had completely fallen into a coma!

What should he do?

What should she do?

Hai Xiao Min looked around helplessly, her face was full of sadness and despair. Her eyes were red as if she was in need of water, and she couldn't even shed tears.

There was no water, no food, no medical treatment. Were they really going to just wait for death?

But she didn't want to see him die. Whether or not someone could save him, it would be fine even if he took her life!

While her eyes were wandering, she touched a sharp shell fragment. She suddenly came up with an idea. It was absurd and bold, but it was also the only feasible one.

She looked at the man with the faintest of breaths, slowly lifted her left wrist to his face, and pointed it shakily at his dry and pale lips. Holding the fragment in her right hand, she pressed the tip against his skin, gradually exerting her strength.

The pieces pierced her skin. She bit her lip in pain, but did not retreat. Instead, she continued to dig deeper into the flesh.

Fresh, scalding red blood dripped down onto the man's lips, becoming more and more numerous.

"Ling Yao, swallow it down ~" She was on top of his head as he pleaded softly.

Please, I have to swallow it down. I have to hold on for one more day, even if it's just for half a day. The longer I hold on, the closer I will be to being saved.

As if he had heard her pleas, or as if his dry body was too eager for the nourishment of the liquid, the unconscious Ling Yao unconsciously swallowed.

"That's great …" Hai Xiao Min was so happy that she was on the verge of tears.

This change seemed to give her hope. Her dull eyes once again glowed with a trace of hope. She resolutely slashed down. In an instant, blood flowed down her fair wrist and into the man's mouth, completing the exchange of his life essence!

Ling Yao instinctively swallowed the liquid in his mouth. Perhaps it was because the taste was not too good, or perhaps he sensed something when he was unconscious, and his handsome brow twitched a little, but he could not open his eyes.

As time passed, his head became heavier and heavier, and even the pain seemed to have gone numb.

If she persisted a little longer, perhaps this would be her last chance to do something for him. She was a little drowsy, and could only rely on her will to keep herself from falling down.

There was so much blood gushing out that Ling Yao couldn't even swallow it. There was also Hai Xiao Min who was shaking and not aiming at his mouth, causing his face to be covered in blood.

She subconsciously wanted to wipe him clean, but this was the only thing she did. She suddenly felt dizzy and her body became crooked. She stayed on his chest and didn't dare to move for a long time.

Hai Xiao Min suddenly wanted to cry. She was probably at the end of her life, and the feeling of having no control of her body made her feel afraid and helpless. All the negative emotions surged in her heart at this moment.

At that moment, she felt the movements of the man below her.

Ling Yuan groaned and slowly opened his eyes.

Was it her who was pushing him? At first, Hai Xiaoming was helpless and wanted to move his body away, but then she found out that she couldn't even do such a small thing. Forget it, it's fine as long as he wakes up.

It was still useful, wasn't it?

Everything she did was worth it...

"Hai Xiaomin?" After waking up from his sleep, Ling Yao stared blankly at the woman lying on top of him, "What is this?"

His sense of smell gradually returned as he woke up. It seemed to be the smell of blood.

Where's the smell of blood?

What was on his face? Why was it so viscous?

Confused, he raised his hand to rub the corner of his mouth. When he brought it close to his eyes, he saw a patch of bright red.

Ling Shang froze for a moment, and then carelessly touched his face. Blood, it was all blood!

"Hai Xiaoming, where did all this blood come from?" He frowned and asked her, but found that her expression was clearly not right. "Hai Xiaomin!"

As Ling Yao struggled to get up, it was as if his bones had been pulled out of her body, causing his to slip down onto him.

Then, Ling Yao finally saw her bloody wrist!

With his level of intelligence, he only needed an instant to understand the cause and effect. His body stiffened. What did she do?

Damn it!

Ling Yao's eyes were filled with hatred as he held Hai Xiao Min's body and held her bleeding wrist tightly. His low and hoarse voice trembled: "How long has it been?"

What was he asking her?

How long has what been?

Hai Xiao Min raised his head blankly. Ling Yao turned her body over, letting her lie down more comfortably in his embrace. He then asked in a deep voice: "How long have you cut your wrist for?"

He wanted to know her physical condition!

"I don't know. It seems …" "It shouldn't take long …" Hai Xiao Min answered with empty eyes and a smile on his face.

That gratified smile pierced deeply into Ling Yao's eyes. The sticky and sweet taste in his mouth had a hint of her unique sweetness, but at this moment, it caused his entire body to feel ice-cold — disgust!

How could she do that? She's human! A living person! Not his spare food!

"Ling Yao, can you... "Hug me tightly, I'm cold …"

Ling Yao bit his lower lip so hard that he was badly mangled. He hugged Little Min Hai, tears falling down onto her pale face with a "pata" sound.

"Eh? "Is it raining?" Hai Xiao Min looked up. The sky was no longer a clear blue and had become dark. Her vision was blurry and she couldn't tell if it was really raining or not.

"Don't talk! I'll help you bandage it! " Ling Yao seemed to be trying his best to hold something back as the veins on his forehead and arms bulged. He was trying his best to find something that could help him, so he had to stop the bleeding immediately!

He found the bandage that Hai Xiao Min had washed clean. His long and slender hands that were usually steady became clumsy. Even the bandage was trembling.
