Stranded on a deserted island with my beautiful boss, who used to make me kneel to do my daily work, now I want you kneeling before me, serving me...

Chapter 281 Separated

Hearing Wang Ping's words, I became a little worried and immediately became alert, carefully pulling Wang Ping down to squat down.

Everyone around them squatted down on the ground, holding their breath.

"The situation on their side is unclear, so let's be careful."

At this moment, Yang Rui looked at me with a frown and said, "I don't think they're coming out to launch a full-scale attack. If they really wanted to attack our camp, their first choice should be the area around our camp, but this place is already very far away from us!"

"Besides, even if they wanted to attack our camp, they wouldn't just send out these few people. If they wanted to launch a full-scale attack, they would have sent out all their weapons."

I don't particularly like Yang Rui, but I have to admit that his analysis is quite accurate.

If these foreigners really wanted to raid our camp, then it's definitely not right for them to come out and hide in this forest.

"Sihai, shall we go and take a look? We've sent quite a few people this time, and everyone is armed. They only have a few people, plus that bastard Lin Xubo. I don't think they can amount to anything. Why don't we go and see what they're up to!"

Hearing about Wang Ping's part, I nodded and said, "Okay, let's be careful."

After saying that, we immediately stood up, holding our weapons warily, and cautiously approached the grove of trees where the foreign elders were sitting.

These foreigners were clearly very wary. Although they were sitting by the trees, seemingly resting, they immediately stood up as soon as they heard the noise, raising their guns and pointing the dark muzzles at us. This made my hair stand on end.

After all, water and fire are merciless, and gun barrels are even more merciless. If any fool loses control, we'll all die here today.

Wang Ping immediately raised his gun, but when those foreigners saw us, instead of attacking us, they became quite agitated.

Even Lin Xubo, who had argued with us that day and was kicked out, suddenly looked very happy when he saw us this time.

That kind of expression can't be faked.

We saw the foreigners quickly put away their guns, and one of them, the leader, walked towards us, saying a lot of things in English.

Yang Rui translated for me: "He said he was very happy to see us. He doesn't seem like he's going to attack our camp, does he?"

Of course I could see that too. After all, who would be all smiles if they wanted to take over your territory? Unless they were putting on an act, but I've dealt with these foreigners more than once or twice, they shouldn't have that kind of mentality.

"Ask them why they're here."

Yang Rui nodded and quickly translated what I had said.

Not long after, these foreigners quickly communicated with Yang Rui again.

After talking for a long time, Yang Rui's expression turned somewhat ugly. He looked at me and said that this group of foreigners had also been attacked the night before last.

Moreover, the attacks there were much worse than ours; their ships had already been destroyed by the previous small tsunami.

After returning, they salvaged the remaining items on the ship, re-attached the planks, and settled again on a large rock by the sea.

But this time, after they settled down, before they could take any measures, they were attacked by a pack of wolves.

That night they suffered heavy losses; one of the male colleagues had a large chunk of flesh torn off his wrist by a wolf.

Not long after this incident was over, they were attacked by the indigenous people again at night.

The indigenous people were clearly prepared; they lit bonfires around them that night and kept throwing fireballs into their cabins.

It's unclear what kind of oil those fireballs were soaked in, but once it touched the thin hull, the planks immediately burst into flames.

The foreign women in their group were all terrified.

That evening, they had a major conflict with the indigenous people, but fortunately, there were no lynxes in their territory.

But the indigenous people were no pushovers either. They not only burned down their camp but also stole a lot of their belongings. Most importantly, in the chaos that night, they got separated from each other.

Besides the bearded lead investor, the other group that got separated also included the female colleagues.

Lin Xubo and the other foreigners ran into the woods in a panic and arrived here under the cover of darkness.

Based on Yang Rui's translation, I roughly guessed that Lin Xubo was planning to lead these foreigners to our camp for help, but I didn't know why they didn't go.

We also suffered heavy losses on the night they were attacked, and even if they went to seek help, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to help them.

Strangely, these indigenous people attacked both of our groups simultaneously this time...

What exactly do these indigenous people want to do?

One of the foreigners looked at me again and said several words urgently. When I didn't react, he stepped forward and grabbed my hand tightly.

I was startled and instinctively tried to break free, but failed. I then noticed that his hands were very cold, and judging from their appearance, I knew that they hadn't had a good time from last night until now.

Even if he wasn't pale and emaciated, he had at least missed several meals, and even Lin Xubo's expression was somewhat listless.

The foreign man spoke a string of words in a foreign language very quickly, which I couldn't understand at all. Fortunately, Yang Rui dutifully translated for me the whole time.

"They said, 'Can we help them find their partners? If we can really get them back together, they're willing to give us something.'"

Looking at the sincerity that kept flashing in the foreigner's eyes, I was quite suspicious.

After all, we've been on this deserted island for so long, and everything we brought from the city is now considered non-renewable. Their lives have become so extravagant, so what else do they have to offer us?

Furthermore, these people have been scattered for two days and two nights, so what are the chances that those foreigners will survive even if they don't die?

After all, they might be able to resist if they were together, but the chances of danger would be much greater if they were separated.

But seeing his pleading look, I couldn't bear it anymore.

Just then, Lin Xubo suddenly walked up from behind the group of foreigners, looked at me, and whispered, "I have a clue here. If you can take us in now, I can tell you this clue. It's very important, and you'll definitely be interested."

Seeing that Lin Xubo was still trying to negotiate with me even at this critical juncture, the little bit of pity I had just felt was quickly dispelled by Lin Xubo.
