At least 20 cats split the two campfires in two.
Lu Wuyai stared intently at Qin Feiming, while the other women also cautiously observed the man who claimed to be a rescue team member, feeling their grief and indignation reach their peak.
"Who are you?" Su Xi was equally angry, because he was actually being held hostage.
Qin Feiming's expression was calm. He immediately used his black rope to tie Su Xi up, restricting his struggle.
“I am Qin Feiming. I know you have been doubting my identity.”
Qin Feiming stood in front of Su Xi, making it clear that he was her human shield.
Su Xi could only kick her legs repeatedly to stop the masked cat from getting closer to her. But as time went by, her two slender calves began to bleed, and countless scratches appeared on her delicate muscles.
"Let her go first, or we'll come over," Lu Wuyai shouted.
Qin Feiming shook his head, looking at the cats and said, "These are golden cats, carnivorous cats. If you encounter them, you'll be in trouble."
"I don't care what that cat is." Looking at the usually calm and collected Qin Feiming, Lu Wuyai was extremely annoyed.
"Please release Su Xi."
Qin Feiming shook his head and said, "I won't let them go. As long as they are food full of blood, they will leave naturally."
"And Su Xi can give them a full meal."
"Maybe you'll thank me then."
Upon hearing this, everyone, including Lu Wuyai, trembled and got goosebumps all over their bodies.
Did someone else say this?
Seeing the despair in Su Xi's eyes, Lu Wuyai suddenly pulled an axe from his waist and threw it at Qin Feiming.
Almost simultaneously, a golden cat stretched out its paw, as if it had received divine assistance.
On the other side, Lu Wuyai picked up the harpoon again, held his breath, and headed straight for Qin Feiming.
After only a few steps, the situation changed rapidly.
At that moment, Qin Feiming realized that he couldn't possibly take care of these three people. He could only temporarily release Su Xi's hand, dodge the axe, and then bend down to avoid Lu Wuyai.
As for the golden cat's attack, Qin Feiming took out a bottle from his pocket and sprinkled it into the air. The pungent smell spread everywhere.
The next second, Qin Feiming grabbed a life-saving bag, gave Lu Wuyai a deep look, and then disappeared into the darkness with a speed that belied his limp.
"sweet"
With red eyes, Lu Wuyai rescued Su Xi, then watched as Qin Feiming took away all the food.
The only saving grace was that, with Qin Feiming's departure, some golden cats also chose to chase after him, and the space at the foot of the mountain suddenly opened up.
Su Xi looked at Lu Wuyai gratefully and leaned against him tightly without any hesitation.
After feeling Su Xi's surging body, Lu Wuyai subconsciously lowered his head and saw something he shouldn't have seen.
The circular hemisphere on the clothes immediately caught Lu Wuyai's eye.
At that moment, tragedy struck.
Meow.
Be careful.
"Lu Wuyai".
A sharp pain suddenly shot through his back. Before Lu Wuyai could react, his entire vision went dark, and he and Su Xi collapsed to the ground.
At that moment, Lu Wuyai lost consciousness. When he woke up, it was already the morning of the next day.
"Wake up!"
"Lu Wuyai".
Are you feeling better?
His back hurt. That was Lu Wuyai's first feeling after waking up.
Then it went soft. Lu Wuyai helplessly raised his eyes and found himself lying on Su Xi's lap. Her voluptuous figure brought him great comfort.
Yu Yuxin, standing to the side, burst into tears: "Lu Wuyai, you died last night."
Gu Yuxin looked at Lu Wuyai with stars in her eyes: "Lu Wuyai, you're amazing."
Lu Wuyai gave a bitter smile; he couldn't just ignore death like that.
“Let him rest for a while. You can go do other things first,” Su Xi said softly.
Afterwards, everyone dispersed, and Song Xiaoyou handed Su Xi a tattered piece of cloth, which was clearly torn from other clothes.
Lu Wuyai forced himself to sit up, but Su Xi pressed down on his thighs again.
"If you're hurt, don't move." Su Xi's voice was filled with a gentleness he had never heard before, which surprised Lu Wuyai.
I wiped your face for you.
Soon, a warm towel gently brushed across Lu Wuyai's face, washing away his fatigue.
Lu Wuyai looked at Su Xi and noticed a strange softness on her face.
Su Xi was also looking at Lu Wuyai, and suddenly smiled and said, "You saved me, shouldn't I give you my most precious thing?"
Lu Wuyai swallowed hard. Su Xi's words were truly intriguing. He couldn't help but ask, "What is it?"
Su Xi's face suddenly turned red, then she cupped Lu Wuyai's face, leaned down, and kissed him fiercely.
This series of actions completely confused Lu Wuyai.
Especially the last one, that kiss. It felt like I'd hit a rock.
The whole process was like lightning. It was over before it even began.
"this"
"Don't tell anyone." Su Xi ran out with her head down, before Lu Wuyai could even react.
After a while, Yu Yuxia came in and asked Lu Wuyai, "Did Su Xi eat something just now? Why have you been washing your mouth?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Wuyai's face immediately darkened. This woman didn't actually like him.
It was all for nothing.
"I'll change your dressing."
Where did you get the medicine?
"Qin Feiming's medicine, this powder used to treat leg injuries, Ye Meng intercepted a portion of it. You know that too."
Lu Wuyai quickly turned around. The whole process was extremely painful, causing him to break out in a cold sweat. The injuries he had suffered this time were clearly beyond his expectations.
The wound on his back was so deep that the bone was visible. If it didn't heal on its own, he would likely die here.
After a while, Lu Wuyai fell asleep.
That night, Lu Wuyai had a persistent high fever and groaned all night, causing the four women great anxiety.
"Hold him while you sleep," Su Xi said through gritted teeth.
"What method?" Gu Yuxin asked in shock.
"When I have a fever, the housekeeper will hold me while I sleep..."
For a moment, silence fell at the foot of the mountain, and finally everyone looked at Su Xi.
"Lu Wuyai was injured because of you, so go and hold him for the night."
“I.”
Su Xi gave Yu Yuxin a deep look, then finally lowered her head and agreed.
By the campfire, Su Xi looked at Lu Wuyai, who was unconsciously uneasy due to his fever. For some reason, his proud heart relaxed temporarily, and he reached out to stop Lu Wuyai from entering his arms.
The night became quiet again.
When Lu Wuyai woke up in the morning, he was startled.
He lay in Su Xi's arms, and he could feel a warm, full, and soft touch on the tip of his nose.
"I must be dreaming."
Lu Wuyai was stunned for a moment, then realized that his hand was still holding Ye Meng's waist. The delicate coldness from his palm made him involuntarily move his hands up and down. He even considered whether he should try going to that majestic mountain peak.
However, even someone as stupid as me couldn't do such a thing.
However, this tactile sensation is truly refreshing.
Lu Wuyai was preoccupied with this matter and was completely unaware that Su Xi had already woken up.
She looked at the man in her arms, her cold face suddenly turning red, and she pushed Lu Wuyai away.
"ah"
"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts so much, I'm in so much pain."
Lu Wuyai took a deep breath. Touching his wound, he almost fainted. His recently recovered energy had almost completely vanished.
Are you... are you alright?
Su Xi quickly helped Lu Wuyai up. Perhaps because the position was too intimate, Lu Wuyai felt his arms being pressed down by two soft chess pieces. He looked down and his pale cheeks immediately flushed red.
"This woman isn't wearing underwear."
However, Lu Wuyai soon realized that on the deserted island, in addition to the lack of food and water, even clothes were in short supply.
Hissing sound.
Perhaps because Lu Wuyai's gaze was too audacious, Su Xi came to her senses, reached out, and pinched his waist hard.
"Let me show you. You filthy scoundrel."
"Su Xi, you are abusing a patient."
"Hmph, if you're so capable, come and torture me."
Lu Wuyai fell silent. Breathing was painful; he couldn't stand up. He didn't know if he would die.
It was only then that he noticed a fence surrounded by thorns at the foot of the mountain. They must have been built by Yu Mengrou and the others to keep out the golden cat.
Actually, several golden cats also came to the foot of the mountain last night. Fortunately, they did not attack, which relieved Yu Mengru and Dong Bingling, who were on night watch.
At this point, Su Xi noticed that Lu Wuyai was silent and assumed that his wound had just reopened. A hint of guilt flashed in his eyes, and he quickly stopped him.
Lu Wuyai was pale; the injury on his back was more severe than he had imagined. He couldn't breathe even after just turning over, and his whole body ached as if it were being shaken by a leaf.
"Su Xi, tell me, am I going to die?" Lu Wuyai suddenly asked.
Su Xi paused, then her tone suddenly became very gentle: "Don't worry, you won't die."
Lu Wuyai smiled bitterly, "You've never said anything so gentle before..."
Su Xi's eyes darted around, and she snapped, "Are all men so despicable?"
After saying this, Su Xi felt extremely guilty. After all, Lu Wuyai's injuries were all because he saved her.
However, at this moment, Lu Wuyai didn't even think of talking back. The stinging pain in his back felt like an electric shock. After more than ten minutes, he slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Su Xi gently placed Lu Wuyai's head on her lap, her gaze lingering on the forest with a hint of unease.
Around noon, Yu Yuxin and the others dragged a lot of thorns back from the back mountain, drenched in sweat, to continue increasing the length of the fence.
At the foot of the mountain, Su Xi called Yu Yuxia.
“While I stand here for a while, it will be your turn to take care of him.”
Su Xi was in a lot of pain. Lu Wuyai's head felt like an iron ball, and his thighs were numb from being pressed against the pillow.
Before he knew it, dusk had fallen, and Lu Wuyai awoke from his sleep. His mouth was dry, and his eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of dust, greatly affecting his vision.
After this invisible panic lasted for a while, Lu Wuyai slowly regained his normal vision.
But then he realized there was no one at the foot of the mountain, not even Gu Yuxin. Lu Wuyai felt a strange sense of abandonment.
Have they all left?
"Just because I was injured, I was left here."
Lu Wuyai shook his head, thinking that the other party might have something to do.
But soon, darkness fell, and there was no light at the foot of the mountain. Occasionally, you could hear the roars of wild animals coming from the back of the mountain.
Time ticked by, and it was already eight o'clock in the evening. Lu Wuyai had long since lost his patience. He took a breath, and his eyes instantly turned red.
"I was pushed into the sea by Su Xi before, and now they've thrown me here. Am I just supposed to die like this?"
"We're all survivors who've lived together until now, how is this possible?"
Lu Wuyai pounded the ground hard, a sharp pain in his back almost making him faint again.
Bang!
"I was the one who saved Su Xi, but now she doesn't even care about me anymore."
Lu Wuyai lay on the ground, punching the rock wall again and again, trembling with anger.
"No, I want to live. I want revenge."
"I want to get revenge on them."
Suddenly, he heard footsteps not far away. He instinctively touched his waist with his right hand, wanting to pick up the saw, but realized that his clothes had already been taken apart.
However, Lu Wuyai still grabbed a rock in the darkness, leaned against the rock wall, endured the intense pain, and was ready to deliver a fierce blow to his opponent at any moment.
Click it.
That was the sound of tree branches being trampled. Almost simultaneously, Lu Wuyai lunged forward, smashing the large rock in his hand against the figure in the darkness.
"Lu Wuyai, what's wrong with you?"
Su Xi's voice suddenly rang out. Lu Wuyai was stunned for a moment, then he almost burst into tears.
So, they were still there.
Lu Wuyai stopped throwing the stone in time, avoiding hitting Su Xi, but he still crashed to the ground, making a painful face.
Soon, Yu Mengru and Song Xiaoyou lit a campfire at the foot of the mountain. In the bright firelight, Lu Wuyai realized that they had only gone to the rocky mountain to fetch water. On their way back, they encountered a pack of wolves, but there was no danger along the way.
"You've got a screw loose. Why did you just go crazy?"
Su Xi helped Lu Wuyai up, her eyes wide, speechless.
But at that moment, Lu Wuyai lowered his head, feeling a little embarrassed, and even forgot the pain in his back.
"Song Xiaoyou, come and lend a hand, this person is too heavy." Su Xi couldn't lift Lu Wuyai by herself.
Song Xiaoyou quickly went over and grabbed Lu Wuyai's other arm, making the two women barely drag Lu Wuyai along.
As for Lu Wuyai, he felt two arms slip inside his cotton coat and summer clothes. The delicate, soft contact made his whole body melt.
Perhaps it was because the two women's clothes didn't fit well, and the necklines looked particularly low. Lu Wuyai took a closer look and immediately saw something he shouldn't have. His face flushed red, and his heart pounded.
“Lu Wuyai, you’re still the same, still dishonest.”
Su Xi was furious. If Lu Wuyai hadn't saved her life, she would have loved to gouge out that man's eyes and use them as a football.
After dragging Lu Wuyai to the foot of the mountain, Su Xi pinched his waist hard, then left with her arms crossed.
As for Song Xiaoyou, her beautiful face was already flushed red. She ran to the campfire, hugged her knees, and buried her head, like a panicked ostrich.
Lu Wuyai recalled the great joys and sorrows he had experienced alone in the darkness, and he cried with a smile.
"Didn't he have a back injury? I'm sure I'm not crazy."
Sitting by the stove, listening to Lu Wuyai's crying and laughter, Dong Bingling got goosebumps all over her body.
That night, Lu Wuyai tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
The main reason, of course, was the intense pain from the wound, which felt like insects gnawing at his bones, constantly reminding Lu Wuyai how painful it was to live.
Yu Yuxia sat by the campfire all night, feeling very uncomfortable watching Lu Wuyai, who was holding back his emotions.
"If you're really in pain, just shout it out."
No one will blame you.
Upon hearing this, Lu Wuyai shook his head, his face turned pale, and cold sweat streamed down his forehead.
Even if you shout it out, it won't cure the pain at all; it's just a form of self-comfort.
But Gu Yuxin was a little worried. Lu Wuyai was now hunched over, his head pressed against the rock wall, and the strips of cloth on his back were bleeding, but he refused to make a sound.
Finally, Lu Wuyai couldn't take it anymore and bit down on the wood. The sawdust cut his lips, and his mouth was filled with the fishy taste.
Yu Yuxia quietly walked over and wiped the sweat from Lu Wuyai's forehead with a rag, feeling a pang of sadness in her heart.
"Let you show off."
"If you don't have the ability to save Su Xi, then you deserve your misfortune."
Lu Wuyai smiled bitterly, but there's no going back in this world. Even if there were, he would most likely gamble again.
"Next time, don't do that again. It makes me feel... uncomfortable." Yu Yuxia's face turned red instantly, and she quickly corrected herself.
“Let’s live until next time.” Lu Wuyai shook his head for a while. He felt that he was in very bad condition and could not muster any strength.
After a while, Yu Mengru asked Lu Wuyai if he wanted some water.
After receiving an affirmative answer, Yu Yuxia squatted down next to Lu Wuyai with the bottle in her hand, then unscrewed the cap and carefully placed it on the corner of his mouth, letting the water slowly enter his mouth.
Sometimes, Lu Wuyai was in so much pain that he couldn't control his facial muscles, and even opening his mouth became difficult.
Throughout the entire process, Yu Yuxia remained extremely focused. Lu Wuyai felt a warm glow in his heart, and even the pain in his back lessened.
"It's not much better."
Lu Wuyai nodded, then suddenly smiled: "If you kiss me, I might be fine tomorrow."
"Please be serious, you're still like this." Gu Yuxin rolled her eyes.
But Lu Wuyai didn't expect that Yu Yuxin would suddenly bend down when she left.
In the firelight, Yu Yuxia blushed, then lowered her head and kissed Lu Wuyai on the cheek.
Pooh
Lu Wuyai was stunned for a moment, then his heart started pounding, and he couldn't help but grab Yu Yuxin's hand.
But the other party turned and ran. After a while, he returned to the foot of the mountain, his expression returning to normal. He looked at Lu Wuyai, his eyes appearing calm again.
"Um, um..."
"Don't tell anyone. Get some rest." Yu Mengrou cursed, sat down by the campfire, and threw Lu Wuyai off his back.
Hissing sound.
Lu Wuyai took a breath, and the pain began to intensify again. He could only lie on his sleeping bag, trying to make himself as comfortable as possible.
