Chapter 61: Difficult to deal

I persuaded and said, "Chief, I know that you are deeply afraid of monsters, but the ferocity of monsters is largely due to your fear, which strengthens their ferocity in your hearts. In fact, they are not indestructible. I can't deal with them alone, but if we all unite together, we can definitely kill all the monsters. After killing the monster, the tribe can leave the highlands, have more land for farming, have more food, and have more people to feed. Don't you want your tribe to expand? "

I talked for a long time, but the chief was as steady as Mount Tai and said slowly, "But do you know how many monsters there are in the mountains? The big monster was killed, and this group of black monsters came again. After we killed the black monsters, who knows what other monsters will emerge? If we can completely defeat them, we won't have to hide on the highlands."

"But it's not the way to hide all the time. What if the monster comes to the highland? You can't hide." I really can't understand why he is so stubborn and so scared that he didn't consider the pros and cons at all.

"Let's talk about it at that time. Anyway, they haven't come up for so many years." The chief said calmly, "I have sent a lot of livestock to the foot of the mountain in the past two days. I have to think about how to increase the number of livestock. Those guys can really eat too much. If we don't have enough food to eat, then you will have to find your own way. Of course, you can still live in the tribe."

Seeing that the chief didn't force me to deal with the black monster, I felt a little relieved.

But as outsiders, they have to face difficulties of one kind or another, and the shadow of death almost never leaves overhead. The latter is an inevitable choice in the face of waiting for death and acing the danger or seeking more survival.

I looked at Li Wanxue and saw that she was staring at me, which made me feel very uncomfortable.

I applied to the chief and said, "Chief, please give me two boats. I'll go out to hunt animals on other islands and bring back more animals to breed together. Only in this way can we increase the number of livestock as soon as possible and feed those black monsters."

The chief was delighted and said, "This is also a good idea, but... we don't have a boat. People from our tribe haven't left this island for many years."

"You should always build ships?" I feel that meeting such a tribe is even worse for me than living on a desert island.

"If you insist on going, of course there is no problem." The chief promised.

I felt a little better when I heard he said so. I stood up and said to Li Wanxue, "Stay well in the tribe. I will come back as soon as possible and protect yourself."

Li Wanxue with tears in her eyes, got up and came up and threw herself into my arms and began to cry.

The chief unexpectedly smiled, but somehow he still got up and left here.

After cuddling for a while, I pushed her away and said, "Don't worry too much. If we don't die, we will have a great blessing. We will all be fine. Living on a desert island is doomed to go through many hardships. We must have the ability and confidence to bear and defeat them."

"Lu Fei." Li Wanxue wiped away the tears on her cheek and said, "Go with Yu Tong and leave me alone. She is a good girl. She is more suitable for you than me."

"What silly words are you talking about? If I had to give up you, wouldn't I have left here long ago?" I clasped her hand: "No matter whether others understand it or not, you must have to understand me. What I promised you will definitely be done."

"I'm sorry... I brought trouble to you." Li Wanxue rushed over again and cried even worse.

I tried my best to appease her. After a long time, the chief's little wife came out and we had to separate. She took Li Wanxue’s hand and said a few words. And then she dragged her away.

I waved at her sadly. After the beautiful image disappeared at the door of the next house, I walked out of the chief's house. I went home and told others about my latest plans.

"If we can find a suitable new island to live in, we will not come back to this hellhole." Xu glasses sighed.

"You fart less, if we don't come back, what about about Li Wanxue? Are you right to say so to brother Fei? You really have no conscience at all." Li Ding scolded him.

"That's not what I wanted to mean." Xu glasses hurriedly defended: "We will definitely come back to pick her up. I didn't say it too clearly just now."

Knowing that these two were not very reliable, I said bluntly, "You don't have to pretend to be kind. In short, we must unite together when we go out. If we really find a livable island, you can stay there and as for the matter of saving Li Wanxue, I will arrange it myself."

"Brother Fei, I will follow you wherever you go in the future." Li Ding expressed his position again.

I gave him a gloomy look. Even if what he said now is from the heart, it is useless. His courage proved that nothing could be expected of him.

"Brother Lu Fei, why don't we take the young woman with us?" Zhou Yutong suggested: "Then we can arrange she and the Japanese girl for each of them. Just let the muscular man and the eldest brother live a hard life here."

"I don't like that woman, she is much older than me." Li Ding pleaded eagerly.

"You don't like her doesn’t mean there is no one likes it."

Xu glasses knew that I was referring to him. He smiled and said, "It's all right. The eldest brother is not bad, but he is too honest. Even if we take him with us, it's useless."

"I'll talk to the chief later." In fact, it was also a good thing to get the young woman here, so as to save the two of them from fighting against each other for the sake of wanting the Japanese girl.

After we discussed it properly here, Zhang Yutong and Harato went to prepare dry food. After the aborigines sent by the chief came, we hurried to the seaside together. The capacity of the canoe was too small. So we chose bamboo, and planned to make a bigger bamboo raft, and then used rattan to tie the bamboo together.

Because there was only one axe, the bamboo cutting fell on me. Li Ding and Xu glasses were responsible for shaving off the branches on the bamboo, and the aborigines helped cut down the rattan.

After the busy work of half day, all the materials were prepared, so we returned to the highlands to have dinner, had a good rest for one night, and hurried to the seaside early the next morning. In order to increase the stability and capacity of the bamboo raft, we made a large bamboo raft with a width of 6 meters and a length of 10 meters, which was made by stacking three layers of bamboo. In order to prevent waves, we reinforced the four sides and made a guardrail with a height of one foot. I also brought two three-legged bamboo stands and several large skins. When came to the night, we can put up the bamboo shelf and then we can make a tent.

Everyone has scratched a lot of holes in their hands. On the way back, Li Ding has been looking at his hands all the time, which showed he was no different from those of women.

Zhang Yutong and the other woman prepared enough dry food in the house. They also burned the meat like when we were in the cave by the canyon river. After the surface was burnt, it was sealed with mud and then baked again.

In just two days, the preparatory work was in place. After dinner, I went straight to the chief. I asked to let us take the young woman away. As for the reason, I also made it clear.

The chief laughed: "I can promise you, I only hope you will go and return early. If you go out for too long, the food supply in the tribe will not be available. Your woman and the other two slaves will have to get food by themselves."

I nodded, fully aware of the threat implied by this sentence. If we don't come back for a period of time, the chief will send Li Wanxue to the muscle man and the eldest brother. It was obvious what will happen then.
