But how did Song Xiaoyou find out?

Song Xiaoyou glanced at Jin Xilu and uttered a string of words. The latter's expression changed from surprise to relief, and her mood underwent a strange change as well.

Su Xi was very curious about what Song Xiaoyou had said to the other person.

“There’s nothing here,” Song Xiaoyou shook her head and said, “I just want her to face reality and stop doing such dangerous things.”

As Song Xiaoyou gazed at the sea, her voice became extremely ethereal.

"Who knows how long we can survive on this deserted island?"

Lu Wuyai found a place to sleep in the mountains. The environment by the sea was similar, but if he left the beach and ventured inland, it would be very difficult to find a place.

As they searched along the coast, Lu Wuyai was followed by four tails who played pranks along the way, adding a touch of excitement to the otherwise tedious search.

"You'd better hurry," Lu Wuyai said helplessly.

Ying Ying Ying.

They are still very young and haven't even learned how to bark yet.

After walking for more than half an hour, Lu Wuyai saw that the tide was receding, and at the same time, there were only two hours left until dark.

"Let's go back." Lu Wuyai breathed a sigh of relief. He wouldn't be able to find a place to stay tonight, which would probably be a big problem.

The light in the forest gradually dimmed, and before long, you wouldn't be able to see anything at all.

When he returned to the fire station, Lu Wuyai found large pieces of wreckage standing around the ten bonfires, and even a hatch, which was clearly an engine room.

In the distance, several women were carrying something that looked extremely heavy.

Lu Wuyai ran over and helped Song Xiaoyou pull a piece of iron, taller than a person, ashore first, then asked what was going on.

"When the tide went out, we went to collect seafood and found an airplane in the mud."

Song Xiaoyou pointed ahead, and Lu Wuyai could vaguely see a huge shadow.

"Most of the equipment on the ship is unusable, but the debris from the impact can serve as our safe haven at night."

Song Xiaoyou and others used the metal plates from the airplane to create a sealed barrier in a corner of the beach.

One end of the barrier was a forest, and the other end was ten burning fires.

With this barrier, no one should be able to find them in the dark. As for the four people they encountered during the day, they probably won't be looking to kill themselves. After all, one didn't have a gun, and the other did.

Lu Wuyai told Song Xiaoyou to rest for a while, and then rushed to the crash site.

Accidents seem to happen frequently in this sea area.

The crash site was far from the beach. Lu Wuyai looked at half of the huge fuselage; the markings on it were blurry and indistinct, making it impossible to tell what kind of aircraft it was.

The only thing that is certain is that there were many people on this plane.

Su Xi and the others still had some fragments on them. These things would be very useful for living on a deserted island. They could be used as iron pots or as tools.

Lu Wuyai took the opportunity to sneak into the cabin, hoping to find something useful.

Unfortunately, the plane had disintegrated, and many items were destroyed. Several suitcases were burned to a crisp, making it impossible to tell what was inside.

Lu Wuyai shook his head and walked out of the cabin. He would then follow Su Xi and the others to move the scattered iron pieces throughout the cabin for the next task.

Time passed by, and soon it got dark.

On the beach, a campfire blazed fiercely under the cover of a sheet of metal. One afternoon, a lot of sea salt was made, but far less than expected.

At this point, because the beach was surrounded by sheet metal, the light and heat from the flames were blocked. It would have been impossible to spot this area from the forest alone.

That night, besides Lu Wuyai who was on night watch, there were also Song Xiaoyou and Jin Xilu guarding the ten fire towers. They had to ensure that the flames inside would not go out and that fresh seawater would be added at any time.

Because of what had happened before, Lu Wuyai paid special attention to Jin Xilu.

As night deepened, the buzzing of insects near the beach suddenly stopped. Lu Wuyai was startled, suspecting that someone had come.

He had originally intended to hold onto the gun, but after thinking it over carefully, he picked up a long knife made from airplane debris from the ground and quietly walked out from the other side, which was surrounded by sheet metal.

Song Xiaoyou and Jin Xilu exchanged a glance, weapons in their hands, and quietly followed behind Lu Wuyai.

Soon after, the chirping of insects could be heard again from the forest near the beach.

Lu Wuyai searched around in the darkness, but found nothing. He was bitten twice by wild mosquitoes and his whole body was itchy.

"Perhaps it's some kind of animal that just appeared nearby," Lu Wuyai guessed.

The two women nodded. After returning, they leaned against the iron plate, gazing at the ten pottery jars engulfed in flames, and fell into deep thought.

Lu Wuyai also felt a little tired. He rubbed his eyes and noticed that the flames seemed to have changed color.

"So sleepy."

Lu Wuyai yawned, wandered around the forest for a while before returning to the seaside, feeling even more sleepy.

After persisting for a few minutes, Lu Wuyai could no longer hold on, so he told Song Xiaoyou and ran straight to the beach to wash his face with cold water.

After rubbing my face vigorously, most of the drowsy feeling disappeared.

Lu Wuyai sighed and gazed at the silent, black sea. The moonlight seemed particularly dim tonight.

Back at the station, Lu Wuyai found Song Xiaoyou and Jin Xilu asleep, leaning against the metal plate with captivating smiles on their faces.

"They're all asleep, what am I supposed to do with the pottery jar..." Lu Wuyai sighed, wanting to wake them up, but ultimately gave up.

Now that you're asleep, let's get some sleep.

But soon, Lu Wuyai frowned. He had been in high spirits just now, but now he was feeling sleepy again.

“Wrong.” Lu Wuyai shook his head and left the campfire as quickly as possible.

Sleepiness slowed his movements, and as Lu Wuyai ran to the shore, he began to feel dazed.

Fortunately, the bitter seawater reminded him of this incident.

“This is unusual.” Lu Wuyai took a breath and looked at the bright campfire on the shore. Suddenly, he noticed that white smoke was coming out of the flames on both sides.

Moreover, the color of the flames was noticeably different from other campfires.

In an instant, Lu Wuyai gripped his pistol, released the safety, and nervously stared at the dark forest.

By the light of the fire, he could see some scenes clearly, but nothing seemed amiss; the insects in the forest did not stop.

Everything seemed normal, yet it was filled with an eeriness.

After a while, Lu Wuyai stood on the beach, staring intently at the opposite side.

But then he started to worry about the four women, because he didn't know if long-term inhalation of this smoke would cause any irreversible damage to the human body.

With that in mind, he had no choice but to grit his teeth, hold his breath, and extinguish the two obviously problematic campfires as quickly as possible.

But just as he extinguished the campfire and was about to wake the others, the chirping of insects and birds in the forest suddenly disappeared.

At the same time, Lu Wuyai felt a chill run down his spine. Before he could turn his head, the harpoon in his hand suddenly disappeared.

This sudden turn of events sent chills down Lu Wuyai's spine. Clearly, something had snatched the harpoon from his hand. The immense force caused his right thumb, which was gripping the harpoon, to snap instantly.

As for Lu Wuyai, he didn't even have time to feel the intense pain from his broken bones. The next second, he was sent flying.

That's right, he flew off headfirst, and the firelight grew farther and farther away in his eyes.

At the same time, he also saw clearly what the monster was that had snatched the harpoon from his hands and abandoned him.

It was a giant monkey with blue stripes on its human face. In ancient times, it would have been called a mandrill, or a giant monkey.

"Damn it"

"How could such a thing happen?"

After a while, Lu Wuyai finally felt the immense pain of his severed finger. The saying goes, "When fingers are interlocked, hearts are connected by a single thread." Now he could no longer feel his hand being touched.

The giant monkey was three meters tall and stood there like a wall.

With a bang.

Finally, Lu Wuyai fell into the sea. After catching his breath, he surfaced and, enduring the intense pain in his fingers, immediately ran ashore.

The big monkey was still there, but it was still holding Su Xi and Anna in its hands.

"This monkey shouldn't be in heat."

"It is said that in the village where there used to be a giant monkey, women often go missing. It's a damn thing."

Thinking of this, Lu Wuyai couldn't help but shudder, but he didn't stop at all. He released the safety pin and pulled the trigger towards the monkey's two legs.

Bang!

With five bullets remaining, Lu Wuyai fired three shots.

This time, luckily, one of the bullets hit the monkey's calf, causing intense pain, and the mandrill immediately flew into a rage.

He roared.

A gust of foul wind blew by, and Lu Wuyai quickly covered his nose to avoid gagging on the spot.

The monkey that had been shot was clearly afraid of Lu Wuyai, but he still immediately led Su Xi and Anna into the forest.

"Damn it"

“Leave that person for me.”

Lu Wuyai was furious. Just then, the giant monkey darted into the forest. The darkness made it impossible to discern any of the directions.

More importantly, Song Xiaoyou and Jin Xilu were still unconscious, so he couldn't abandon them.

Lu Wuyai checked the time. There were still six hours until dawn.

During these six hours, Su Xi and Anna, who have been kidnapped by the mandrill, may encounter unexpected events.

The thought that the mandrill might be in heat made Lu Wuyai feel extremely uncomfortable.

At this moment, Lu Wuyai could only wake up Song Xiaoyou and Jin Xilu.

He ran to the beach and carried a bucket of seawater. When he was feeling groggy, he would use the seawater to wake himself up.

The same method was used on Song Xiaoyou and Jin Xilu, and the effects were quickly apparent.

The two women woke up one after the other and saw the chaotic station, Anna and Su Xi who were nowhere to be seen, and Lu Wuyai who was covered in sweat from the pain. Only then did they realize how bad the situation was.

Song Xiaoyou quickly took out some gauze and herbs from the basket on his back. He rubbed them together and bandaged Lu Wuyai's severed thumb.

After that, the three of them began to discuss how to find the mandrill.

“We won’t be able to find each other at night.” Song Xiaoyou shook his head. Even though he knew the situation was critical, entering the forest at night without any clear guidance would undoubtedly be suicide.

Lu Wuyai knew this wouldn't work, but the more he thought about it, the more anxious he became.

“Let’s make a few torches first, and then try them out.” Song Xiaoyou sighed, looking very frustrated.

Soon, Lu Wuyai gave Song Xiaoyou three one-meter-long pieces of wood.

Beside the campfire, Song Xiaoyou wrapped the wooden sticks in front of him with gauze soaked in lard. These grease-filled sticks could burn for quite a long time once lit.

After doing all this, Lu Wuyai lit a wooden stick, extinguished all the campfires on the shore, and buried the monkey on the spot.

So the three men, each with a gun, headed straight into the forest in the direction the monkey had gone.

Lu Wuyai clearly remembered that he had injured that large monkey. He searched carefully and found bloodstains in the grass.

"It's good to have a clue." Song Xiaoyou also took a breath and told Jin Xilu not to fall behind.

In the time that followed, they continued to search for the giant monkey based on the bloodstains in the forest, where the night was often filled with a murderous aura.

"What are those glowing red dots?" Lu Wuyai looked at the flickering red dots in the forest and felt a chill run down his spine.

After thinking for a moment, Song Xiaoyou said, "Maybe it's a bat."

Lu Wuyai and Jin Xilu wiped their arms almost simultaneously, and the surrounding air seemed to cool down considerably.

That night, they wandered around for two hours and finally arrived at an unfamiliar place.

The torch had been burning for an hour, and the light was somewhat dim.

At this moment, what appeared at Lu Wuyai's feet was a huge pit. It wasn't deep within his heart. Even with the light of a flashlight, everything inside the pit was clearly visible.

However, Lu Wuyai had been distracted, and his foot almost slipped. Fortunately, Song Xiaoyou caught him by the collar.

"This is too suspenseful." Lu Wuyai took a breath, came back to his senses, and found his back covered in cold sweat.

At this moment, Song Xiaoyou threw the torch in his hand into the pit, and the scene inside gradually became clear.

Afterwards, Lu Wuyai jumped down from the edge of the pit and landed on the ground. He shone his flashlight around, but at first glance, he didn't find anything.

Song Xiaoyou and Jin Xilu followed closely behind, and three flames illuminated a corner of the pit.

Lu Wuyai gripped the gun in his hand, and the face of that big monkey from before appeared before his eyes.

The three of them walked forward together through the potholes. The darkness made everything seem terrifying, no matter where they looked.

After walking for a while, Lu Wuyai felt he had stepped on something. The firelight swept across the ground, revealing it to be a bone.

Then, he looked along the bones to both sides of the ground. There were countless white bones there, some that looked like human bones, and others that looked like the bones of other animals.

Seeing this, Lu Wuyai and the others were terrified, their scalps tingling with fear.

"That's how many animals are eaten."

Lu Wuyai pointed to the human bones, some still covered in fresh flesh and blood. Scattered clothing and some wallets and identification documents proved that the person was a survivor who had lived with them on the deserted island.

"That giant macaque is too cruel." When Lu Wuyai saw a corpse, his heart and liver were ripped out. The look of terror on his face before death was forever frozen in that moment.

A shiver ran through them, and the three of them trembled with every step they took.

Lu Wuyai glanced at Song Xiaoyou and said, "Be prepared, shoot if you see a monkey."

Song Xiaoyou's expression was serious. The two of them had a total of five bullets in their pistols. They had to kill the large monkey before they ran out of bullets.

At this point, Jin Xilu became quite nervous. She had never heard of such a thing as a giant monkey before. Fear of the unknown creature gradually seeped into her entire being, making even walking a difficult task.

Because she knew it would be more dangerous to leave her waiting alone.

Strong winds blew intermittently in the pitch-black pit, which made Lu Wuyai realize that there must be another exit in the pit.

At the top of the passage was a black rock covered in foul-smelling blood, which looked disgusting due to the strong wind.

A few minutes later, Lu Wuyai seemed to hear a gurgling sound, somewhat like the cry of a wild boar, which immediately put him on alert.

Song Xiaoyou and Jin Xilu also sensed danger. Something was approaching them in the darkness.

The next second, a terrifying roar erupted, followed by a giant human face with blue stripes on the face of a horse and a monkey.

He roared.

In an instant, Lu Wuyai drew his gun and fired. The bullet whizzed through the darkness, unleashing tremendous energy.

At the same time, the pale Song Xiaoyou finally came to his senses. Bullets were fired from the room, and he and Lu Wuyai fired two shots.

Four bullets were fired at the same time, and just as they disappeared into the darkness, Lu Wuyai heard a muffled sound.

In that narrow passage, the bullet must have struck the opponent's body. As for whether it was fatal, they couldn't guarantee.

Lu Wuyai took a breath. Now, they only had one bullet left in their pistols.

But then, Lu Wuyai felt a heavy pressure from the other side, as if the air had been suddenly compressed.

Lu Wuyai didn't have time to think too much. He grabbed Jin Xilu, who was closest to him, and rolled over like a donkey, hiding on the ground.

Bang!

A loud thud echoed against the rock face. Lu Wuyai turned around and saw Song Xiaoyou holding a torch. Opposite her, a three-meter-tall macaque lay on the ground, a stain on its chest.

“Dead.” Lu Wuyai said, his voice trembling slightly.

Um

Song Xiaoyou swallowed hard. She was still in shock. When that big monkey hit her, it was almost right next to her body.

At that time, if she had gotten any closer, she would have been crushed into a meat patty.

It is three meters tall, and judging from the size of the giant macaque, it weighs at least 400 kilograms.

Just then, Lu Wuyai let go of her hand, and Jin Xilu blushed with embarrassment. But when she saw the dead monster again, her face turned pale.

“Go find Su Xi and Anna,” Lu Wuyai called out, his voice echoing down the corridor.

Soon, the three men ventured deeper into the cave and finally found two women still unconscious in a corner.

After a shaking, Anna woke up first, followed by Su Xi. However, both women looked around and felt somewhat lost.

"Where is this?"

Why are we here? What happened?

After a series of questions, Anna and Tang Xin gradually understood the general outline of the matter, and their faces turned pale, especially when Lu Wuyai said that the reason the giant monkey kidnapped them was probably for mating.
