In the next few days, Xia always spent a lot of time to patrol the sea once, but the situation was still not optimistic, not to mention mermaid, even the mermaid did not see a single scale, the sea was vast, and the mermaid lived on the bottom of the sea. Clan, so no one may ever find them unless they show up themselves.
Lei Jin sat on the reef on the shore every day and waited for Xi Ya to come back. Although there were no beasts by the sea, Xi Ya was not worried that Lei Jin had gone far.
It was almost noon, the sun was scorching hot, and at the seaside, especially, the waves on the sea pierced people's eyes, and Lei Jin felt a little sticky in his palms. These were the last few pieces of dried fruit left by Mo Ya. He didn't know what mood Mo Ya had in washing those little fruits one by one and drying them out. Just thinking about it now, it felt like a stone was blocked in my heart. It didn't hurt, but he gasped for breath. There was a shadow covering his head, and Lei Jin knew that it was Xiya who came back.
"I still haven't found anything. I expanded the scope of my search this morning." Xia shook her head under Lei Jin's expectant gaze.
"Let's go back to eat." Lei Jin knew that Xi Ya had done her best. After a morning of exposure at sea, Xi Ya's face was a little red, and she didn't know if she was sunburned.
Xi Ya has cleaned up the cave again. Now it is much neater and cleaner. They blocked a big tree branch at the entrance of the cave to prevent other animals from breaking in.
But when they went back today, they found that the tree branch at the entrance of the cave had been moved. Although it was not obvious, the orcs' natural intuition and Lei Jin's alertness made them sure that someone had come in, and there was still a strong smell of smoke wafting out. , The two looked at each other and moved quietly towards the entrance of the cave with light footsteps, but there was no movement inside.
Xi Ya pulled Lei Jin behind her with one hand and kicked away the tree branches. After they entered, they were speechless. There was no one inside, but everything was thrown everywhere, even the firewood on the ground was set on fire. After that, it seemed that water was splashed again, and the ground was so wet that there was no footing on the ground. It was obvious that it was here to make trouble, and nothing was lost.
"Can you smell someone coming?" You don't need to think about it, you know it's a person, no beasts broke in and burned things, and then disguised the hole again?
"I don't know, it's a very unfamiliar smell, I haven't smelled it before." Xi Ya also felt strange, they hadn't even seen a shadow in the past few days when they went to the beach, how could they still make enemies with people, but if they didn't make enemies, it means that What, Xi Ya heard carefully and said, "But..."
"But what?"
"It seems to have a strong smell of seawater." But he wasn't sure if it was brought by the person who came here. After all, this place is close to the sea, and there was a strong smell of seawater in the cave, but this time it was a little different.
"Could it be a mermaid?" Lei Jin suddenly thought of a great possibility. Since they can take Mo Ya here, they obviously know this place, and it is possible to return.
"It's possible." Xi Ya nodded, but they came back late, otherwise they could have been caught and asked.
Obviously, Lei Jin thought so too. If he stayed, he might have some clues.
"It seems that today's lunch can only be eaten outside." Xia asked Lei Jin to sit on a stone under the shade of a tree. He picked up some dry wood not far away, sliced a whole wild goat that had been skinned, smeared it with seasoning, and roasted it on the fire.
"You sit here and rest first. I'll go get some water to rinse the hole, otherwise it won't be possible to live in tonight." Xi Ya turned the wild goat over, slashed a few knives, and continued to bake.
Seeing that Lei Jin nodded and agreed, Xi Ya went into the hole and went to two large wooden barrels to come out. He used the big tree trunk to dig it out overnight. After drilling two more holes, it can be used through a thick vine, although he said It's a bit rough, but it's okay to make do with fetching water. They don't want to live here at home, so where did they come from?
"If something happens, call me loudly, and I'll come right over." Xia had said this many times.
Lei Jin nodded helplessly again, and Xia left with confidence.
The light yellow mutton oil dripped on the fire, making a sizzling sound, and the aroma of mutton came out.
In fact, Lei Jin heard the movement behind him, but he didn't have time to react at all. He beat him vigorously, and his last thought before fainting was: Come on, this year isn't Lao Tzu's birth year, it's unfortunate.
The visitor shook his huge fish tail, came to Lei Jin, turned him over, pinched his face twice, until a red mark appeared, and then he pouted and said with a breath, "Also. It's just okay to look, and I don't see anything special about it. I didn't pat it on the ground with my tail, I really don't know where he likes you."
Thinking that Dad didn't let him go ashore recently, saying that he found an orc, and he has been looking for something on the sea these days, he thought that it was probably Moya's eldest brother, then this must be their female. After reading it, he had to leave immediately, but he remembered that the creek was not far from here, and the orcs came back soon. He could not guarantee that he would be able to fight, so he should not take risks.
"Let's go so soon?" Lei Jin, who was still lying on the ground, said lazily.
"Why didn't you faint?" Although he didn't use 100% of his strength this time, he still had 80%. He was afraid that 100% would shoot the female to death.
"Where's Moya?" Lei Jin looked at his golden fishtail and confirmed his identity, and didn't want to talk nonsense with him at all.
"By the way, since you're here, you must bring something for him." Berg suddenly thought of this, smiled proudly, turned back, held Lei Jin, and pulled off a lot of hair.
Lei Jin's painful scalp was numb, and he kicked him and continued to ask, "Where's Moya?"
"Are you in such a hurry?" Berg sneered and said, "I just don't want to tell you, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you." As soon as he finished speaking, he had already jumped a few meters away.
Lei Jin's back was hurting so badly, he really fainted just now, but just a moment ago, he tilted his head slightly and avoided the vital part. Then he was woken up again.
But listening to his words, Mo Ya is indeed in his hands.
"Lei Jin..." As soon as Xi Ya came back, she saw him lying on the ground, quickly put down the bucket, and ran over.
"呲..." Xia held onto his back, causing Lei Jin to take a deep breath.
"What's the matter?" Xi Ya didn't wait for him to answer, a huge red swelling slanted across the entire back from the shoulders to the waist as she lifted up her clothes.
"What's going on?" Xia couldn't hide her distress. He had only left for so long. How could Lei Jin be hurt so badly?
"That mermaid has come." Lei Jin said concisely, the burning pain on his back really made him not want to talk more.
"This injury was also hit by him?"
Lei Jin nodded.
Xia saw the blood that Lei Jin bit out of his mouth because he was reluctant to bear the pain, and he had the heart to kill.
Now the medicine Moya found really came in handy.
Xia went back to the cave and found Moya's cloth bag. Fortunately, they were afraid of wild animals or something. They buried the herbs under a stone in a corner and helped Lei Jin take off his clothes. Xia didn't care about looking for anything else. It was mashed, chewed directly in the mouth, and applied to Lei Jin's redness and swelling.
Although it still hurts, Lei Jin has already experienced the dragon bird once, and he can endure it this time.
Lei Jin is injured now, so he can't eat mutton. Ah-Mei said before that if he is injured, don't eat mutton. A few fish were caught just when the water was being drawn, and Xi Ya neatly packed the fish, took down the half-cooked goat that had already been roasted, and put on the fish to bake.
Lei Jin and the mermaid went back and forth with Xi Ya for a few words, and finally concluded: "It seems that Mo Ya is really in his hands, that's for sure."
"Mo Ya shouldn't be in danger for the time being, but how can he be rescued?" Xi Ya frowned, it would be great if she could go to the water to check, but this is obviously impossible, even if she knew it, it would still be nothing. Fazi, the two of them didn't know what to say for a while.
"Maybe it's not as delicious as yours, so you can make do with it." Xia brought the grilled fish over, blowing the heat, feeling that it could be eaten, and then handed it to Lei Jin's mouth.
Lei Jin opened his mouth and took a bite. He didn't know what kind of fish it was, but the meat was very tender, even with many spines.
Xia obviously found out at this time, and hurriedly said: "You quickly spit out the mouth, I finish picking the thorn, you eat."
After Lei Jin spit it out, Xia washed her hands, picked up the thorns carefully one by one, and didn't forget to look up at Lei Jin and said, "It'll be fine soon, wait a minute, or I'll go first. Get some dried fruit for you to eat."
In fact, orcs with thick hands and feet can't do such meticulous work at all, but Xi Ya lowered her head there and chose very attentively. Lei Jin licked the blood on his mouth, bitterly bitter, and said, "No need, Xi Ya, no need to pick, I'm not very hungry, just get me some hot water."
"Hot water? I've already burned it just now." Xia turned her head and gestured with her chin to the half-buried bamboo tube next to the fire, and said, "It's already steaming? It should be on, I'll go get it." Because He found that Lei Jin likes to drink hot water relatively, and he will boil some hot water first when he goes to a place. These are the ones that have just been put.
Xia took two bamboo cups and poured them back and forth.
"Okay, neither cold nor hot, just right to drink." Xia handed it over with a smile.
"I don't want to drink water anymore, I want to rest for a while." Lei Jin suddenly turned his head away, not wanting to see Xi Ya like this again.
"But you haven't eaten yet. If you don't want to eat grilled fish, can I get you some fish soup?" Xi Ya thought that Lei Jin was still injured, how could he not eat.
"Enough, Xiya." At this moment, Lei Jin's charming peach blossom eyes were full of ruthlessness and unstoppable anger rushed up. He didn't see Xiya being so careful to please, and the hurtful words blurted out mercilessly: "Enough, Xia, it's enough, don't bother me anymore, I promise you to go back to the Leopard Tribe doesn't mean I promise anything, you should understand, I'm going back just because you said that Chunji can cure me As for the rest, you'd better not think about it. If you think you should get paid for taking care of me along the way, that's fine, it's fair, then we'll do it well. Isn't that your goal? Isn't it just to **** me? Why do you feel wronged like this? Just say it, I can't resist now, and it's not the first time."
With a "click", Mo Ya let out a long sigh of relief and unbuttoned the last chain on her body...
