"Yes, yes, yes!" Puyol hurriedly said, "Seven years ago, I ruled Sam... uh, this island..."
At this point, Puyol showed a trace of embarrassment, then continued, "Usually, other survivors go fishing, hunting, picking fruits, and so on. That day, I was bored, so I climbed up the mountain behind to take a stroll …"
Puyol began to tell the story of that day, which he would never forget.
Perhaps it was the guidance of the underworld, but that day, Puyol went deep into the mountain forest, where other survivors had never set foot in to collect survival materials, and accidentally came to the side of a pool.
In Puyol's words, the pool exuded a trace of coolness, and the pool was dark blue, like sapphires dotting the earth.
What surprised him even more was that no matter how he walked, when he was about one meter away from the pool, he could not go any closer. There was clearly nothing there, but there was an invisible resistance.
He circled around the pool and tried many positions, but he just couldn't get close to it.
Just when he was ready to make one last attempt, and if it did not work, he was ready to give up. He did not know why, but he actually walked one meter away from the pool.
Of course, he only took one or two steps forward. Before he really reached the pool, the resistance appeared again, and he could no longer move forward.
At this time, Puyol saw a dark red fruit hanging from a branch beside him. The branch grew horizontally from the pool, and the fruit exuded a tempting fragrance.
Puyol, who had been blindly busy for half a day, was already hungry. When he smelled the fragrance, he completely could not restrain his appetite. He even forgot to consider whether the fruit was poisonous, and directly plucked it and stuffed it into his mouth.
He could not remember the specific taste of the fruit, not only because the fruit immediately turned into liquid and flowed down his throat, but more importantly, the moment he plucked the fruit and stuffed it into his mouth, a sudden change occurred in the pool!
With a splash, a very thick python suddenly jumped out of the water, spitting out its scarlet tongue and biting fiercely toward him.
Puyol was trained in martial arts, so his nerve reaction was quite agile. He almost subconsciously rolled to dodge, and at least he did not end up in the snake's belly.
The python, which had missed its target, did not stop at all. Its tail swept towards Puyol with a whistling sound. This time, Puyol had no time to dodge it completely. He could only raise his arm to block it out of reflex.
Puyol felt like he had been hit by a truck. With a crack, his arm broke, and then his whole body flew like a cloud. He fell one meter away from the edge of the pool and slammed heavily into a tree. He felt like his internal organs were broken.
Puyol's vision turned black. Before he passed out, his last thought was that he was finished this time, and he would definitely become the python's dinner.
That night, Puyol slowly woke up.
He thought he was dead, but the pain in his body and the pain in his arms told him that he seemed to be alive.
Puyol felt like he had survived a disaster. He lay under the tree and used all his strength to turn his head to look at the pool. He was almost scared out of his wits.
The python swam above the pool, its cold eyes glancing over from time to time.
Puyol was so scared that he did not dare to move. In fact, he could not move. Not only was his arm broken, but several bones in his body were also broken when he hit the tree.
That night was torture for Puyol because he didn't know when the python would pounce on him and swallow him into its stomach.
Fortunately, the python did not seem to leave the range of one meter from the pool. Although it was eyeing him covetously, it did not come out.
What was even more amazing was that Puyol felt a warmth in his lower abdomen, and that warmth gradually began to spread throughout his body. This feeling was like the last moment when he was having sex with a woman.
And after this warm current passed through him, the broken bones in his body began to heal quickly.
The next morning, Puyol found that his broken arms and body were almost healed. This was simply unimaginable.
He lay under the tree for three days. On the one hand, the broken bones were not completely healed, and he was worried that moving his body would cause the bones to be dislocated. On the other hand, he also considered that if he returned to the camp in this state, it was very likely that he would be killed by the usurping survivors.
In any case, the python did not seem to want to come out, so Puyol simply lay there to heal his injuries.
For three days, he relied on the dry food and water he had brought with him when he went out and lay there, almost motionless.
Then, he found that the broken bones were completely healed.
The injuries that should have taken at least three months to heal were completely healed in three days.
Moreover, Puyol soon found that his strength had increased by many times. He was originally a strength-based fighter, and increasing his strength by several times on this basis was a very terrifying thing.
Speaking of which, Puyol was able to find that his strength had increased because when he returned to the camp after staying outside for three days, he found that there was a new "king" in the camp. The group of survivors thought that he had died in the forest. After a struggle, after three people died, a Portuguese man named Olís succeeded in taking the position.
Olís's strength was not much different from Puyol's. He used to be a sailor on a cruise ship. When Puyol was in power, he was mainly drawn to him. Basically, he was Puyol's deputy in the survivor camp.
Olís had been "promoted" with great difficulty, but in the end, Puyol had unexpectedly returned. Naturally, he was not reconciled. In addition, he had also drawn in a few people with benefits, and his strength was not much worse than Puyol's. Therefore, when Puyol returned, a conflict broke out.
It was during this conflict that Puyol kicked Olís's abdomen and sent him flying a few meters. His entire abdomen caved in, and he died on the spot.
Puyol then realized that his strength had suddenly skyrocketed by many times.
Puyol did not want to kill Olís, but this inadvertent kick ended Olís's life. In the eyes of the other survivors, this was undoubtedly very cruel, and it also showed Puyol's absolute strength.
Since then, Puyol had completely controlled the small society formed by the survivors and became the absolute king of the camp.
Of course, Puyol still had lingering fears about the pool, especially the terrifying python, which made Puyol flinch. He also strictly ordered the other survivors not to approach the area, and that small pool became an absolute forbidden area on the island.
When Xia Ruofei heard this, his eyes burst out with a strange light.
Puyol did not know what had happened, but Xia Ruofei had a rough idea of what had happened from his description.
He was almost certain that the pool Puyol was talking about was protected by a barrier, and the fruit Puyol had eaten was certainly not simple. It could actually make an ordinary person's body produce vital energy. It was definitely a very precious spirit fruit in the world of cultivation.
Xia Ruofei guessed that Puyol was able to take one or two more steps forward and pick the fruit because the barrier had existed for too long, causing some small problems in some parts of the barrier.
Thinking of this, Xia Ruofei was full of curiosity and anticipation about the pool Puyol was talking about.
However, he did not immediately rush to the pool to check it out. Instead, he continued to ask, "Puyol, other than this, have you lived on the island for so many years? Has anything strange happened?"
Puyol thought for a moment and said, "We have been mainly active on this side of the island all these years. There are many places on the island that we have not set foot on. Every day, we just struggle to survive … If there is anything strange …"
Puyol frowned and thought hard, then said, "There is one thing … I don't know if it counts …"
Xia Ruofei took out a bowl of instant noodles from his backpack and handed it to Puyol. He said pleasantly, "It's okay. Tell me about it first! What you said just now was very helpful to me. This is your reward! "
Puyol took the ordinary bowl of instant noodles as if he had received a treasure. He thanked him repeatedly and said, "Lord Immortal, it's like this … Almost every month, on a few days, there will be a very strange sound coming from the forest. It's a bit like the cry of a wild beast, but it doesn't really sound like it … At first, we were quite scared, but then we slowly got used to it …"
Xia Ruofei raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? What are the specific dates? Is there any pattern? "
Puyol smiled bitterly and said, "Lord Immortal, we don't specifically record the time and date on this deserted island, so we really don't know the specific dates. But … what we can be sure of is that when the beast roars, the moon in the sky is very full."
Xia Ruofei nodded thoughtfully. So it was the night of the full moon. Did some strange beast come out on the night of the full moon?
Things were getting more and more interesting …
Xia Ruofei pondered for a moment and said, "Puyol, please take me to the pool to have a look!"
When Puyol heard this, his face turned pale and he said, "Lord Immortal, that python is really scary. Now that I think about what happened that day, my legs feel weak … It's better not to provoke it if there's no reason."
It was obvious that Puyol had been scared out of his wits by the python.
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Don't worry, just lead the way for me. As long as you can see the pool, you can come back. I won't let you take any risks."
Although Xia Ruofei's tone was very gentle, there was a hint of non-negotiable. Even if Puyol was unwilling in his heart, he didn't dare to disobey Xia Ruofei. He could only nod with a bitter face.
"Very well, then let's go now!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
"Yes!"
Puyol stood up and pulled out an old backpack from under the simple wooden bed. He put the coke and barrel noodles in it, then carried the backpack on his body and walked out of the wooden house with Xia Ruofei.
The other survivors, including Puyol's three women, stood in the open space in the middle of the camp, waiting anxiously.
As soon as Puyol came out, he said to everyone, "Go do what you are supposed to do! I'm going to take this lord to a place! "
Xia Ruofei had a faint smile on his face as he walked out of the simple camp with Puyol. The survivors looked at Xia Ruofei in awe until the two of them disappeared into the woods in front of the camp. Then, they began to work again with a nervous heart.
On this isolated island surrounded by the sea, it was impossible for these people to escape. All the laws and morals here could not be formed. Whoever had the biggest fist was the boss.
Now, there was no doubt that Xia Ruofei's fist was the biggest. These survivors were used to Puyol's rule. Although life was difficult, at least their lives were not in danger for the time being.
Now that it was Xia Ruofei, they did not know what their fate would be, so they were all very uneasy.
Xia Ruofei naturally did not care about the thoughts of these survivors. His mind had already flown to the mysterious pool.
Puyol led Xia Ruofei through the dense forest. Since he had not dared to come near this area for many years, Puyol only remembered the general direction, so their speed was not particularly fast. He stopped from time to time to observe the surrounding environment. After carefully identifying the surroundings, he continued to move forward.
Xia Ruofei did not rush him. He just followed behind Puyol unhurriedly.
Of course, with so many mysterious things happening on this island, Xia Ruofei did not dare to let his guard down. He maintained a high state of alert the whole time, and his psychic power radiated out at any time. If there was any movement in the dense forest, he would be able to detect it immediately.
What made Xia Ruofei even more excited was that the white world raccoon in the space was also very excited. Through rich body language, it told him that as he continued to move forward, the aura of the Boundary Stone was getting stronger. Obviously, if Puyol did not lead the wrong way, the pool was very likely to be the place where the Boundary Stone was.
Xia Ruofei followed Puyol for about an hour in the dense forest. Puyol parted a clump of weeds and suddenly stopped with a trace of fear on his face.
Xia Ruofei saw that Puyol had stopped and immediately stuck her head out to take a look.
There was a burst of excitement in his heart. About twenty or thirty meters in front of him, there was a pool of about five or six meters in diameter.
The water in the pool was, as Puyol said, a dark blue color, like a pure sapphire embedded in the forest.
The area around the pool was very quiet. Normally, one could hear the sound of insects at any time in the forest. It was as if this was a forbidden area. Even the small animals in the forest stayed away, which was a bit strange.
Puyol whispered in a trembling voice, "Sir immortal, it is the pool in front of us..."
