Chapter 148

Seeing that there was no useful information to be obtained here, Pei Hong did not stay any longer and left the shelter.

He notified all team members to rest for a day and go into the forest to cut wood tomorrow to build some wooden houses for the islanders. The team members who had seen the victims had no objection and felt that they could help with this.

During the day of rest, Qiao Sheng and Li Mu were busy on the boat. They adjusted the time flow rate of the boat to the fastest and planted crops one after another. Starting tomorrow, they would all go into the forest to help cut wood, so they would not have time to plant these.

Li Mu was sitting at the bow fishing. His fishing speed quickly attracted the attention of other players. This speed was too fast. He threw the hook down and lifted it up immediately. It was much different from the time they took ten minutes or half an hour to catch one fish.

Because there were too many people watching, even those who never cared about the outside world's eyes could not stand it anymore and moved to the first deck to continue fishing.

The cassock cub hadn't played with his friends for several days. Today, he was clinging to Yousu like crazy, even ignoring Xinxin. Yousu even abandoned him. The three animals were simply performing a love triangle drama, chasing each other and you couldn't get away.

There were only two people watching the show, Qiao Sheng and Ah Dai. The small number of spectators did not affect the performance of the three actors at all. She saw the finale. The cassock boy could not catch up with You Su, and turned around and threw himself into Xin Xin's arms.

Qiao Sheng laughed at Xin Xin for being a spare tire, which was simply a typical example of a dog licker. When the little guys were tired of playing, she took out the dried shark meat from the storage box and fed them.

In such a busy time, Qiao Sheng also received Chu Wanyou and Fang Yueyi who came to visit. The two did not come for her. One brought Jinlan to reunite with his brothers, and the other just wanted to rub You Su. In order to be more open and aboveboard, he also brought Wen Ning.

Facts have proven that animals are more tolerant of children. Chu Wanyou could only sit by and watch Wen Ning rubbing Yousu's fur until it was all ruffled, but the fox didn't move.

The cassock cub was even funnier. When he saw his brother, he didn't even bother to chew the shark jerky in his hand. He ran over in two steps and stuffed the half-eaten shark jerky in his hand into his brother's mouth.

Jinlan and Fang Yueyi had always eaten all kinds of spicy food. Suddenly, she was very happy to eat something different. She didn't even care that her brother had eaten half of it. She ate it all up.

Fang Yueyi was so angry that she poked it on the head. She had given him a lot of shark meat, but it was too embarrassing to show off his food when he first arrived at someone else's house.

They played on the boat for most of the day. Qiao Sheng didn't need to accompany them anyway. In the end, they were called away by their families. Before leaving, Fang Yueyi said that Qiao Sheng had a hard time. From the time she came to the time she left, she was not idle for a minute. She

originally wanted to criticize Li Mu for being idle and waiting for food, but when she got off the boat, she saw a wooden barrel full of fish next to Li Mu. It seemed that it was not right to say that he was idle. None of them were idle. They were all working. By comparison, they seemed a little bit idle.

For a long time afterwards, Xu Ziyan suspected that his girlfriend was possessed by something dirty. In the past, there was enough food on the boat, so they would rest, enjoy the sea breeze, and look at the night view. They lived a very comfortable life. After

a trip to Qiao Sheng's boat, she became a different person when she came back. Every day, she would go fishing or collect supplies. Whenever she saw him sitting down, she would start talking about him. During that time, even Pei Hong said that their spirits were different, and they even built their boat into the second best boat in the fleet.

The guests had all left, and Qiao Sheng had no time to cook, so he steamed the buns he had made before and cooked some brown rice porridge. After eating, the two of them sat on the chairs at the bow of the boat and looked at the stars in the sky.

"This chair is still uncomfortable to sit on. It would be perfect if I had a hammock. I can bask in the sun during the day, take a nap, and count the stars in the sea breeze at night. When can we stop struggling for a living?" Qiao Sheng raised his head and sighed softly.

"It will be soon. After all, we have been working hard to survive. It is a bit difficult not to struggle for a living, but making a hammock, taking a nap and counting stars can satisfy our needs." Li Mu imitated her and looked up at the night sky.

When he was explaining the constellations to Qiao Sheng, Pei Hong came to tell them about the failure of the attempt to get information from the woman. The point was that the woman in labor should know something, but she probably thought he could not be trusted, so she said nothing. If there was a chance, he hoped that Qiao Sheng and the other women could go over and give it a try. If they could get the truth out, things would be easy.

Before leaving, Qiao Sheng gave him all the crops he had planted that day, and he took them out of his wrist bag and put them on the float.

"How long are you going to stay on this island? With so much food, you're going to stay here for a week?" Pei Hong asked, looking at the food on the ground.

He really didn't expect that he would be given so much at once, enough for his fleet of more than 60 members to consume for a week. The pork was the least, there were about 20 fresh fish, and the big pile of cabbage had at least 50 heads. There were also potatoes all over the ground, and more sweet potatoes and corn.

"No, we can withdraw after the house is built. Everyone has worked hard, can't we eat more? Besides, there is nothing good here, it can only maintain everyone's normal food intake." Qiao Sheng asked Pei Hong to pack it up quickly. This amount of things was just what she planted for one day. If

it was planted on other people's ships, it might take ten days or half a month, but half of the area of ​​their three-story cabin was filled with planting pots.

With the adjustment of the flow of time, if she really didn't sleep for a day, she could collect 24 rounds, so providing a fleet of 60 people with ordinary food is not a big pressure.

If it wasn't too troublesome, she would have wanted to build a large fleet, but when she thought of the things Fang Yueyi complained to her, she could write a book. The title of the book has been thought of, it's called "Pei Hong's Bad History".

After seeing Pei Hong off, Qiao Sheng even washed himself carefully. These few days were really muddy. The sky cleared up. Li Mu and Xu Ziyan will lead the team to cut wood in the forest tomorrow. Pei Hong led some people to dig the foundation at the original ruins. Although they were just changing a few cabins, they couldn't be too casual.

The next morning, the two of them went their separate ways. Li Mu and the others went into the woods, while Qiao Sheng went to the shelter and stayed there for a day under the pretext of looking after the children.

During this time, the little girl was named Zhensheng by her mother. This name is quite commemorative, but if it is given to a girl, who knows if she will blame her mother when she grows up.

Qiao Sheng also persuaded Ke Qingwan that this child born in difficult circumstances should be given such a meaningful name.

While the child was breastfeeding, he teased little Zhensheng for a while. After eating and drinking enough, the baby fell asleep quickly. He was just worrying about having nothing to talk about.

Unexpectedly, Pei Hong came to the shelter and, as a stroke of genius, he called out Grandpa Wang and Grandma Sun on the pretext that the location of the foundation was unclear.

Now, apart from some children, the only adults in the tent are Qiao Sheng and Qing Wan.

"Do you have anything to tell me? No matter what the truth is, we will definitely not interfere too much in the island's affairs, but we have the right to know the truth, right? It's impossible for dozens of us to be busy for several days and not even know whether they rescued a human or a ghost?" Qiao Sheng was angry when he saw Qing Wan's hesitation. With such a mother, no matter how good the name of Xiao Zhensheng is, it may not stand up.

"Don't worry, I'll tell you, isn't it okay for me to tell you?" Qing Wan sobbed and started talking about the two headless male corpses.

It turned out that the two had just arrived on their island a few months ago, and their purpose was very clear, that is, they came for the black water in the back mountain. At first, the two sneaked into the back mountain, and it took several days before they were discovered by the islanders who went hunting and prepared to catch them together.

Unexpectedly, the sixty-odd young men on the island were unable to defeat the two outsiders and even failed in the siege. No one knew how these two could fight so well and even killed several islanders. This made everyone even more timid.

"Miss Qiao, to be honest, Zhensheng's father didn't feed the sharks at sea. He blocked the knife for Wang Daye's son when they were besieging the two people. But Wang Sange didn't escape and died on the spot. The situation was chaotic at the time. There were all kinds of rumors. Some people even told me that it was Wang Sange who pulled my man to block the knife. But the man died and the lights went out. I had to make a living on the island with my children. There was really no way to argue with Wang Daye's family. They were more in number and more powerful." Qing Wan cried even louder as she spoke.

Qiao Sheng asked her to keep her voice down to avoid disturbing Wang Daye and Sun Da Niang outside. She didn't even have a chance to speak her mind.

What happened next was simple. The two of them moved into the village so openly. They robbed the house of Mr. Wang and demanded food and drink every day. If they didn't do what they wanted, they would beat or kill. The men in the village didn't go out to sea to fish, but to escape.

"Escape? What do you mean?" Qiao Sheng didn't quite understand.

"There are also rules on our island. You can't kill people, otherwise you will be punished by heaven. We don't know what the content of heaven's punishment is. It's all passed down from our ancestors. We really couldn't bear the pressure, so we conspired to kill the two people together." After Qing Wan told the truth, she finally felt relieved. The truth that had been suppressed in her heart finally came out.

"Where is the head?" Qiao Sheng continued to ask.

"Let the men on the island take her out to sea. Our ancestors also said that if you kill someone, you must take the head away, and throw it into the sea as far as possible, so that you can avoid heaven's punishment. Miss Qiao, we dare not say it because everyone thinks that this earthquake is heaven's punishment for all of us! The more than 70 of us are lucky to have you and escaped, but the more than 20 really suffered for everyone." Qing Wan started to cry again.

Qiao Sheng was complaining about the game settings in his heart, and Pei Hong finally couldn't stop Wang Daye and the others, so he came back and saw Qing Wan crying on the bed.

"Oh, my little aunt, you can't cry during the confinement period. It will hurt your eyes and it will be bad for your breast milk. You can't cry for the sake of the child." Grandma Sun walked quickly to Qing Wan's bed and wiped her tears with her sleeves: "Don't ask me anymore. It was all done by me. If there is another fate, let me suffer alone. Let my body be exposed in the wilderness or let me die without a complete body. Don't hurt other islanders anymore."
