Chapter 232 Lizard 2
After a good sleep and regaining her energy, Yu Mo decided to ask the island residents about the situation.
As she pushed the door open, she saw the grilled fish by the door again, and her eyebrows jumped! She had been so hungry last night that she had eaten it without even checking its origins. Now, she couldn't just put it away as if nothing had happened.
The islanders' strange attire and sturdy build made it difficult for Yu Mo to associate them with kindness, but judging from what happened yesterday, they merely confiscated her backpack and assigned her a house to live in, so they had no ill intentions for the time being.
She came to the door of the chief's wife, holding the roasted fish wrapped in green leaves, and told her that she had picked it up on the way here.
The chief's wife unwrapped the green leaves and showed a surprised expression: "You found this!"
Yu Mo nodded with a normal expression.
Her heart was in turmoil. Could this fish have a virus? She instantly felt sick to her stomach and patiently observed the leader's wife's expression.
From the chief's wife's awkward words filled with surprise and disbelief, Yu Mo gradually understood why she was so shocked.
The island's residents were once tourists on a large cruise ship. While sailing through the Devil's Sea, their ship unfortunately encountered a storm, hitting a reef and sinking. The survivors were carried to this island by the waves...
They tried various ways to leave, but all ended in failure. Forced to survive, they settled on this island.
However, the island's resources are limited, and most of the space is occupied by a dense jungle. Some warriors went into the dense forest but never came out again, so the dense forest on the island was regarded as a restricted area.
The food they depend on for survival is fishing at sea.
Near the Devil's Sea, there are abundant marine resources. Although dangers are frequent, many brave warriors still venture there. The fish there are plump and delicate, and taste delicious.
"...This is a ceremony that has been carried out on the island for many years! If a warrior has a woman he likes, he can just go to the Devil's Sea and catch the largest and most abundant sea fish. As long as the woman accepts, they will become husband and wife, but..." The chief's wife said in an ambiguous tone.
Yu Mo automatically added the second half of her sentence, "It's just that the place is fraught with danger, and it's a near-fatal escape." She was thankful she'd delivered the grilled fish, but also somewhat regretted eating the food at the doorstep last night without understanding the situation. Even without asking, she could sense that the islanders, having lived there for so long, were known to be tough. What if that person forced her?
Yu Mo sighed secretly. At worst, she could just go to the Devil's Sea and catch a fish and give it back to him!
Perhaps because of her contribution of sea fish, the chief's wife had invited her to eat in front of the stone pot. On the way back, the dense forest beside her rustled in the wind, and a sudden cold, stiff, and numb feeling crept up her back, as if being stared at by a lurking beast.
She quickened her pace back to the cabin and closed the door.
…
The moment Yu Mo closed the door, the beast, clinging to the thick tree, suddenly fell to the ground. Its four broad paws touched the ground, and its long brown tail swung back and forth behind it. The broad tail lashed against the ancient tree with such force that it shook slightly.
He slowly stood up, his emerald green pupils fixed on the occasional figure glimpsed from the wooden house. He stretched his arm, cut by the reef, to his mouth, his broad, thick tongue, with a faint hook, licking the bleeding arm again and again, his gaze fixed on the wooden house. For a moment, his eyes revealed a human-like sense of loss.
…
The Devil's Sea was his hunting ground. He lurked on the seabed, waiting for his prey as usual. He sensed the giant approaching, and through the rippling blue water, his eyes were first dazzled by the brilliant sunlight. When he opened his eyes again, he was locked in the gaze of the female on the giant.
She looked strange. Like the bird eggs he'd once boiled, peeled open to reveal a dazzling white. Her body was bare, without a single scale. He thought her frail, not only frail but also pathetic. Then he forgot about hunting and lurked at the surface, watching her.
During this time, he saw countless other fragile creatures like her, all bare, like plucked pheasants. He thought they were utterly unsightly! When he looked at the female he had first seen, his critical nature turned to heartache. It was so pitiful. She had no scales. If she were to be harmed, she would have no means of protection.
He hadn't hunted for several days, even quietly adjusting the direction of the giant vessel the female was riding to avoid the hidden reefs on the seabed. But he was so hungry that while hunting, he only took the fish he once loved and gobbled it down without any thought for savoring it, and continued to observe the female.
Then he panicked! The giant creature had hit a reef as he was leaving, and the female on it, along with everything resembling a female, had vanished. He didn't even have time to swallow the fish he was holding. He dove to the bottom of the sea, searching everywhere, and finally found the little female that had fallen into the sea...
…
Yu Mo was very alert when she slept at night. She couldn't trust the islanders. She blocked the door panel from everything in the house that could be pushed through. After two days of peaceful sleep, one night, she finally heard the sound of deliberately suppressed voices in the yard.
Judging by the footsteps, there must be two or three men. Yu Mo peered out the window. Because the cabin was nestled in the dense forest, one could imagine the treatment its owner, Mingxi, received in the village. The thick trees obscured the sun, dimming her vision. Yu Mo clenched her gun, poking the needle through the crack in the window, aiming it at the approaching man.
“…What if the leader finds out?”
"All the women in the village belong to him! We've been following him for so long, and we've given him all the good things. But ever since we came to this shabby place, he's forgotten what a woman smells like!" The man cursed angrily, "The chief put her here, meaning he's assigning her to us! Those fit and strong women have already been in his bed. Have you seen the chief mention her these days?"
"... Too thin, really too thin, barely even a few pounds of flesh."
"Be content!"
Yu Mo held her breath. She wasn't afraid of what these men might do to her. Perhaps they saw her frail figure, naked, with only a tattered blanket wrapped around her crotch. Zhihe provided physical training to new employees, not to mention the fact that they were armed. But she worried about what she would do if she knocked them unconscious.
The meal she had with the chief's wife gave her more information. The chief's wife was indeed the chief's wife, but that was before the ferry disaster. After they were stranded on the deserted island, the men built their homes and went fishing, while the women stayed on the island to do the laundry and cooking. Due to the huge difference in physical strength, the women gradually became playthings for the men on the island.
Whenever a shipwreck or a castaway arrives on the island, the women are divided up among the men, while the men are left behind as laborers, or even used as food when food is scarce. Living on a deserted island for so long has long since eroded any sense of moral restraint...
She currently does not have the ability to break off relations with the islanders. Yu Mo frowned, but still held the □□ firmly in front of her eyes. If they really want to force their way in, she will kill them first!
Just as the man's hand was about to touch the wooden door, something unexpected happened. A black shadow suddenly rushed out, accompanied by a sharp cry, but the cry was cut off as soon as it came out of his throat.
“Bang, bang, bang—”
The sound of something huge falling to the ground.
Yu Mo stared intently at the pitch-black night. The stillness of the night was unbroken by the man's cries for help, the rustling of leaves in the wind, and the sounds of bodies being dragged. Her ears pricked up, and amidst the cacophony of nature, she heard a faint, panting sound, like that of a wild animal.
Her back tensed instantly as she stared out the window into the darkness.
Just across the street, the emerald green grass was stained by gurgling blood. Lauren and the chief were once brothers, but the chief had grown stronger, while Lauren was bitten by a strange fish during one of his outings, leaving him a disabled man on the island. Feeling aggrieved, he came with two robust young men who had just returned from the sea. After some mediation, they decided to vent their pent-up energy on the new Asian girl.
Logically speaking, even though Lauren had a leg disability, he still had some alertness developed from years of fighting, not to mention that there were two men in their prime next to him, but the three of them did not notice the danger coming.
Until his carotid artery was bitten and he was thrown into the corner!
Lauren felt his life slipping away rapidly, but he still clung to his last bit of energy to remember the man who had killed him! Then his eyes widened in disbelief, bloodshot instantly bursting from his eyeballs. The intense fear suffocated and paralyzed him and his brothers beside him.
The first thing that caught the eye was the mouth full of sharp teeth. The fine and dense fangs were sprayed with bright red blood under the faint moonlight, eerie and creepy. The strange vertical pupils seemed to contain the bloodthirsty brutality of a beast when facing its enemy. He was like a baby who had just learned to walk. Although his legs stood upright on the ground, he staggered when he walked. The reason he didn't fall was because he had the tail supporting him from behind!
What is this?
"Help... Help..." Lauren's throat made a hoarse sound, and he eventually lost his life in fear. The two people beside him then gave chase, and before he could catch his breath, he grabbed the body in his palm like a fruit and turned to leave.
He heard the sound of footsteps behind him and turned his head alertly.
I saw the little female I was thinking about frowning and looking at the surrounding environment.
The moment their eyes met, he felt a fire burning in his chest. The tail on his back had already begun to swing from side to side, as if he had met a powerful opponent. His limbs instantly stiffened, just like the physical changes that naturally appeared when those men saw him before they died.
What should he do?
…
Yu Mo naturally noticed the figure hiding in the corner. Her attention was focused on the corpse that he was holding in his hands like a chicken. She couldn't help but gasp. If the flashing black shadow was the person in front of her, how fast was he?
She stepped back cautiously. The man in front of her kept his head down, and he wasn't wearing any clothes! Yu Mo looked away, unsure whether this man's arrival was out of kindness or ill-intention. She pursed her lips and said nothing until she had half retreated back into the house.
The man moved, but hid him further in the darkness, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "min...xi..." This was the conversation he overheard. The owner of this house was minxi. If he pretended to be him, could he live with the little female?
Yu Mo was almost frightened to scream by the sudden sound! In the dark environment, the man who killed three men in one breath suddenly spoke in the brief silence. And the voice was not a normal voice. It was like a handful of rough gravel, or like the words suddenly uttered by a child who was just learning to speak!
She suppressed the trembling that was stirring throughout her body, clenched her penis, and quietly aimed it at the figure in the darkness. If she pressed it, she would be paralyzed instantly! She watched the man's movements vigilantly. If he dared to come close, she would give him a taste of the increased dose of penis...
But he didn't seem to move closer. After a brief silence, he spoke again: "Min...xi..." He said: "Minxi..." After a short, harsh, gravelly sound, he said in a tone of obvious joy: "I am Minxi."
"I...will protect you."
