Suddenly, my mind went blank because I had no idea what the hell this thing was.
I've never seen a fish with teeth like a human's in its mouth before.
He was in pain, and although I was too far away to see his face clearly, I knew from his scream that his condition must be worse than I had imagined.
If you were bitten by this thing in the water, even if it didn't break any bones, you would still lose a piece of flesh.
The big fish seemed very agitated, its body constantly writhing in the water, like a carp leaping over the dragon gate, repeatedly lunging at us against the current, its large teeth appearing exceptionally white and menacing in the lightning.
Wang Ping had already pulled me up, and all the male colleagues, almost with all their might, quickly gathered around me.
I looked at ** and Wang Ping and shouted, "You two, take him and leave first, I'll cover your retreat!"
Wang Ping wanted to say something more, but the big fish had already pounced. We had nothing left to save our lives except for two kitchen knives, the gun in my hand, and the gun in Wang Ping's hand.
Wang Ping stopped being coy with me and quickly took the male colleague from my back. He then helped me and several other male colleagues back behind me.
I quickly raised my gun and fired a shot at the fish that was writhing towards us.
Blood immediately appeared on the water, but it was quickly washed away by the subsequent surge of water.
But the fish seemed to feel no pain and continued to lunge at me.
I had no way of knowing how far away Wang Ping and ** were from me, because this fish was clearly a big shot.
I fired two more shots, but the strange fish still showed no sign of backing down.
I was also a little scared at this moment, because I didn't know how many fish like this were still in the water. If there were a dozen or more, then if we continued to stay here and endure with them, we would only die if we didn't run away.
As I fought, I clung to the tree roots, barely managing to support myself as I retreated.
They finally realized what was happening and quickly ran backwards. We retreated for about ten meters before the fish finally lost its attention.
It continued to surge towards the current, seemingly trying to return to the sea.
At this moment, I was even more uneasy, because the fangs in the deep sea had been brought to the surface, so was this deserted island now completely submerged by the sea?
If that's really the case, then what exactly is the current situation of Wang Xiaoxiao, Chen Jian, and Xu Wei?
I dare not think about it; I feel a sudden, overwhelming sense of collapse.
But right now, saving your life is the most important thing.
Seeing that the fish was no longer bothering us, we saved a lot of energy. We helped our injured and unconscious male colleague and immediately ran back to the small cave we had come out of earlier.
When we struggled back to the cave entrance, we found them looking out from there as well.
One by one, their faces were filled with terror. Yang Rui seemed to have anticipated that we would return, so he wasn't surprised at all. He quickly and clumsily brought the injured male colleague back into the cave, examined him, and then shook his head at us.
"He's probably fine, just a bit dizzy from drinking too much water and then bumping into something. So he's not very conscious right now, but he should be fine after resting for a while. But Zhao Sihai, what happened to your leg?"
Yang Rui looked at me with a grim expression. By the dim light of the fire, I looked down and realized that my pants, which had been in good condition, had been torn at some point, with a long rip. My blood was still dripping onto the pants, spreading and staining them.
A faint smell of blood permeated the cave.
I was stunned. Only now did I realize that my leg was still incredibly painful, probably from the fall earlier, but I hadn't expected it to be so severe.
Wang Ping only then noticed the scrape on my leg and immediately rushed over anxiously.
"Sihai, don't move yet, let me find something to bandage you! Honestly, there aren't any herbs here right now, it'll be a real problem if it gets infected..."
As Wang Ping spoke, he frowned, clearly feeling very guilty.
I patted Wang Ping on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, don't worry, this little injury won't kill you."
But Wang Ping kept sighing and complaining.
At this moment, Yang Rui came close to me, collected some rainwater from outside, and quickly washed my wounds.
I lay on the ground, and only then did I realize how excruciating the pain in my leg was.
But now we have no herbs, and nothing to reduce inflammation and swelling. The rain outside is so heavy, and we don't know when we can go back.
Overall, this matter has reached a dead end.
I never imagined that after being stranded on this deserted island for so long, I would not only survive, but also lead everyone from nothing to something, and life would be relatively peaceful. But this time, this damn inexplicable tsunami is going to force all of us to our deaths here!
After Wang Ping and Yang Rui washed my wounds with water, the group immediately tore off strips of cloth from their clothes and bandaged my injured leg.
But since there was no medicine, they could only tie it up like this.
Yang Rui said that if I don't get infected, and if my skin has a stronger healing ability, I shouldn't have anything to fear.
I'm afraid I'll get tetanus this way.
But such things are something no one can predict. I'm still a little worried about my colleague who got knocked unconscious and drowned.
Wang Ping went over to check on him, then turned back to me with a sigh and said that he was alright, his breathing was steady. He was probably just knocked unconscious and had drunk a lot of water.
"You don't need to worry about him, just get some rest."
At this moment, the group of foreigners had already reached the tiny opening, and they kept shouting some words that I couldn't understand. But from their tone, I could tell that they seemed very anxious and also a little scared.
I was still wondering what had happened when I suddenly saw Wang Ping cry out in pain and run to the cave entrance. I pushed past the crowd and, by the dim light of the fire, discovered that water had entered the cave.
Our cave entrance is quite high, because we had to smash a lot of rocks to get in. But now, even such a high entrance is flooded. Just how strong is the water flow outside?
